"Lu Xiaolangjun, could this be the legendary Heaven's Meteorite Iron?" Looking at the item Lu Qing took out, Master Lin asked with wide eyes. "Yes, this is a piece of Heaven's Meteorite Iron I obtained by chance, perfect for forging my weapon," Lu Qing confirmed. "Such a large piece of Heaven's Meteorite Iron..." Hearing Lu Qing's confirmation, Master Lin was so shocked he nearly jumped up. His eyes were filled with disbelief. This was Heaven's Meteorite Iron, a legendary forging material. Just a small piece could transform ordinary iron into a divine weapon. Yet Lu Qing had such a large piece! Master Lin finally understood why Lu Qing had dismissed even the Thousand-Folded Sword Embryo and given it away so casually. It turned out he had such a divine forging material in his possession. Wei Xinghe, standing beside them, was equally astonished. He had heard of Heaven's Meteorite Iron, one of the best materials for forging divine weapons. He never expected Lu Qing to have it. "Lu Xiaolangjun, although Heaven's Meteorite Iron is a divine forging material, it is also highly resistant to high temperatures. I'm afraid my furnace won't be able to melt it," Master Lin said with a bitter smile after calming down a bit. Heaven's Meteorite Iron, falling from the heavens, had already been tempered by natural forces like celestial winds and thunderclouds, making it extremely resistant to high temperatures. The forge at Heartforge Workshop was unlikely to handle such divine material. "No problem, I am prepared. Master, just control the heat for me; leave the rest to me," Lu Qing said, placing the Heaven's Meteorite Iron into the furnace. Master Lin, seeing this, could only follow Lu Qing's instructions and continue working the bellows. As the bellows continued to blow, the flames in the furnace grew stronger, but the piece of Heaven's Meteorite Iron remained unchanged, not even a hint of red. As expected, the forge at Heartforge Workshop couldn't handle this divine iron. However, Lu Qing remained calm. He took out a palm-sized porcelain bottle from a wooden box, uncorked it, and poured a drop of red medicinal liquid into the furnace. As the liquid entered the furnace, the flames, already strong, surged higher, changing from red to blue. The intense heat radiated, making even Master Lin, a lifelong blacksmith, feel unbearably hot. But Master Lin ignored the heat, staring in disbelief at the blue flames. "Flames of pure blue, how is this possible?!" He knew the capabilities of his forge well; it couldn't produce such pure blue flames, which were legendary among blacksmiths. "It's the medicinal liquid!" Master Lin quickly realized it was the liquid Lu Qing had added to the furnace that caused the change. He eyed the porcelain bottle in Lu Qing's hand with intense curiosity. What kind of precious liquid could produce such legendary flames? "Master, continue!" Lu Qing's voice snapped him out of his thoughts. Master Lin quickly regained his focus, fully controlling the bellows. Lu Qing closely watched the furnace. Whenever the flames showed signs of turning red, he added another drop of the liquid to keep them blue. With the continuous burning of the blue flames, after ten breaths, the Heaven's Meteorite Iron finally began to change, gradually turning red. Seeing this, a smile appeared on Lu Qing's lips. The Flaming Liquid, developed by the Li Huo Sect, could enhance flames and significantly increase their temperature. Its purpose was to help sect disciples who hadn't cultivated true fire to control higher-level flames for forging divine weapons. In the era of immortal cultivation, this was not a remarkable technique. seaʀᴄh thё NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. But now, with the decline of the immortal path and the disappearance of cultivators with true fire, the value of the Flaming Liquid had increased significantly. It became the only way Lu Qing could melt Heaven's Meteorite Iron. The iron in the furnace gradually turned red, and after dozens of breaths, it was fully red. Lu Qing didn't delay. He immediately took it out, placed it on the iron anvil, and with a heavy hammer in hand, brought it down with the force of a mountain! BANG!!! Under Lu Qing's immense strength, sparks flew, and a loud noise echoed for miles, shaking the entire backyard of Heartforge Workshop. Master Lin and his apprentices were startled. Lu Qing's hammering was even more fierce than when he forged the Thousand-Folded Sword Embryo. If the anvil hadn't been sturdy enough, it might have been destroyed by Lu Qing's blow. Even though it was Heaven's Meteorite Iron, under such intense hammering, it began to deform. Seeing this, Master Lin's eyelids twitched. Another hammer blow! Who would have thought that Lu Xiaolangjun could forge Heaven's Meteorite Iron with such precision and strength? BANG!!! One hammer strike followed another without pause. BANG! BANG! BANG!... As Lu Qing continued to hammer, the loud sounds reverberated continuously. Such a commotion alarmed the entire neighborhood. People came out of their houses, looking towards Heartforge Workshop in confusion and fear. Was this the sound of thunder, or what was Heartforge Workshop doing to cause such terrifying noise? Unfortunately, no one had an answer. To allow Lu Qing to concentrate on forging, Master Lin had closed the workshop and stationed apprentices to guard it, preventing outsiders from entering. Unless someone forced their way in, they couldn't see what was happening in the backyard. However, Master Lin was a renowned blacksmith in the county, and most people didn't dare offend him without knowing the cause. So, despite their shock, the crowd could only suppress their curiosity and listen to the continuous hammering. But to everyone's surprise, the noise lasted much longer than expected. It continued for more than two hours before finally stopping. Table of content
