Lou Gao took the knife and prepared to start with something simple.

He first placed the blade in the furnace. When the blade was heated to reddish red or even slightly yellow, he took it out with iron pliers and placed it on the anvil.

Then, hit it with a hammer!

"Cang!" The knocking sound was clear and crisp, and at the same time, sparks flew everywhere where the hammer and the blade collided.

Several more hammers were struck, and the sound of hammering and sparks continued, but Lou Gao frowned.Others may not be able to see it, but through these few hammer blows, he understood that Wu Zhe's statement was right. Ordinary hammer blows had no effect on the martial soul at all.If it were real black iron, the few hammer blows just now should have had a slight purifying effect, but in fact the internal structure of the blade did not change in any way due to forging.

Although Wu Zhe didn't understand the art of forging, he could sense that Lou Gao's few hammer blows only used physical strength and did not use soul power. After thinking about it for a moment, he understood that Lou Gao was trying to verify.

Lou Gao paused for a moment, wiped away the little sweat caused by nervousness with his forearm, and then tightened his grip on the forging hammer in his hand.The gurgling soul power gushes out from Dantian, rushes along the meridians toward his right hand, and finally collects in the forging hammer.Due to the infusion of a large amount of soul power in a short period of time, the originally gray forging hammer actually emitted wisps of light.

"The infusion of soul power must be continuous, even if it is a small amount," Wu Zhe imparted his experience on the side, "When the forging process officially starts, you don't have to worry about anything, you only need to pour all your energy into it. All the spirit and will are invested in the forging of the 'vessel', treating it as a sleeping life and trying every means to communicate with it and wake it up."

Lou Gao nodded and swung the forging hammer again.

"Cang!!" There was another knock.

A hint of joy suddenly appeared on Lou Gao's face.After the forging just now, he seemed to feel a slight change in the blade!To confirm this, he took another swing.

"Clang!!" To the ears of ordinary people, this sound is no different from the sound of the previous hammer, but there is a certain difference in the ears of Lou Gao.Combined with the different feelings brought to him by the two strikes, Lou Gao can basically conclude that his two forgings have indeed had an effect.

After receiving positive feedback, Lou Gao was extremely excited and his hand swinging the hammer became stronger.But as time went by and the number of forgings increased, Lou Gao gradually realized something: although he had been forging and transforming the internal structure of the knife, this acquired transformation had been slowly disappearing, or to be precise, Said that the knife has been trying to 'restore' its original appearance.

He also tried to increase the input of soul power to fix his transformation results, in order to prevent the weapon soul from recovering independently.Practice has proved that this does have a certain effect, but it only slows down the recovery speed, and once the soul power input is reduced, it is still the same as before.

Lou Gao was a little troubled, but he also understood that if the properties of the weapon soul could be permanently changed by simply infusing soul power and forging it, the weapon soul master would have been doomed long ago.

So he gave up this wrong route and tried to start a new round of experiments according to the method described by Wu Zhe.

He put aside all the distracting thoughts in his mind, regarded this knife as his next work, and devoted himself to forging it wholeheartedly.There was only one thought in his mind: to perfect this knife.

Under such circumstances, Lougao entered a special state.

There was nothing in his eyes but the forging hammer in his hand and the dull knife on the anvil.His body seemed to no longer exist, just swinging the hammer with muscle memory; but his spirit was extremely concentrated, and the strength and placement of the hammer were extremely precise.

After being forged again and again, at some point, the dull knife on the anvil began to flicker with a faint light, which you couldn't even notice if you didn't pay attention.The frequency of the shimmering light is consistent with the frequency of hammer forging, and as the number of forging times increases, the light becomes more and more intense.

The size of the blunt knife continues to decrease during the forging. At the same time, strange silver lines slowly emerge on the originally dark blade, and the clanking sound becomes crisper and has a wonderful rhythm.

Time passed slowly.

The moment Lou Gao finished tempering the blunt knife, a dazzling silver light lit up, accompanied by a clear sword cry.

Wu Zhe is the creator of the spiritual method and is extremely familiar with spiritual perception.At this time, he could clearly feel that a touch of spirituality was born in that knife. No, it should be called waking up.

Today's dull knife is more appropriately called a black knife.The originally broad blade was much narrower, but the shape of the blade was obviously smoother and more pleasing to the eye, and the newly opened edge shone with a cold light.Since it was successfully forged, it has exuded an aura full of vitality all the time, making people feel that it is clearly a living being.
