Ouyang Ming raised his eyebrows and suddenly realized.
It turns out that Master Wu Hongxi did not perfect the combination of hardness and softness, and as a result, his balance was also flawed. Although laymen such as Ouyang Ming cannot see this flaw, Master Wu Hongxi himself is well aware of it.
However, when Ou Yangming thought about it, he couldn't help but be shocked.
Wu Hongxi has not yet truly perfected the way of balance, but he is already the top super blacksmith. With his reputation as the King of Fine Products, he is as famous as Jin Shengjie and other masters in the capital, and even vaguely surpasses them. So, if he really masters the balance of hardness and softness, and deduce the balance to perfection...
Perhaps as he said, it was really possible to break the world barrier and forge that magic weapon.
This was Ouyang Ming's first encounter with a situation that could break the world's barriers, except for his own purple weapons.
Looking at Master Wu Hongxi's rather regretful face, Ouyang Ming felt a trace of sincere admiration.
The reason why I can forge magic weapons is because of special weapons. If he were to compare it with his personal knowledge, experience, or even wisdom, he would feel ashamed in front of Master Wu Hongxi.
Wu Hongxi raised his head, his eyes were bright, and he said in a deep voice: "Little friend Ou, I teach you everything not because I hope you will inherit what I have learned, but because I hope you can build on my method of balance." He pondered. After a while, he said slowly: "If you can let me know in my lifetime that the way of balance can break the world barrier and forge magical weapons, then I can die in peace."
Ouyang Ming felt a chill in his heart. Such unlucky words always gave people a creepy feeling.
He smiled bitterly and said: "Senior, your expectations for this junior are too high..."
Wu Hongxi shook his head slightly but said nothing. However, there is a secret in his heart. You are the first person who can understand the natural changes of hot and cold weapons so quickly. Just with this speed of understanding, I can put all my hopes on you.
"Okay, I will teach you how to refine a cloak and boots. You can try it here." Wu Hongxi said solemnly: "If one day, I can refine a top-grade fifth-level cloak and boots, it will... barely be enough. Passed."
The fifth level of top quality is more than one level behind the fifth level of fine quality.
However, at that point, it is already possible to try the method of balance.
Ouyang Ming nodded excitedly and followed Wu Hongxi to learn how to make cloaks and boots.
These two types of equipment are not among ordinary equipment, nor are they things that formal blacksmiths need to learn. Generally speaking, only those special blacksmiths can transform and refine them.
Of course, because there are fewer people refining them, the price of cloaks and boots is more expensive than other equipment of the same level.
However, even with financial inducements, there are still not many blacksmiths willing to change careers.
The vast majority of blacksmiths would still forge steel if possible.
However, under the guidance of Master Wu Hongxi, Ouyang Ming slowly discovered that refining cloaks and boots was not a simple matter. The amount of knowledge that needs to be mastered is not much inferior to that of forging steel.
Especially when you want to make high-level cloaks and boots, the difficulty seems to be even higher.
Of course, this does not mean that the forging technique is difficult, but that the raw materials are difficult to find and extract.
Although the quantity of selected fine steel and Xuangang steel is not large, it is not too few in this land. Moreover, there are many people engaged in mining, and with the efforts of all parties, they can always collect everything.
However, if you want to forge high-quality cloaks and boots, you need the fur of a half-elf beast.
After hearing Wu Hongxi's story, Ouyang Ming's heart suddenly went cold.
Compared with the value of fine steel and the fur of a half-elf beast, it seems that there is a huge difference.
No wonder high-grade cloaks and boots are worth far more than other equipment. It turns out there is a certain reason.
After Wu Hongxi finished speaking, he threw Ouyang Ming directly into the room.
Although Ouyang Ming has shown extremely strong potential, the production of cloaks and boots is not as effective as forging steel.
Especially for ordinary people who have not yet come into contact with it, if they want to make qualified equipment, they must practice for a certain period of time.
Ouyang Ming, who had obtained the right to use it, was not polite and directly picked up a piece of cloth in the room.
The fabrics here have been specially tailored, and each piece is of similar size, making it a good choice for making cloaks.
With a flick of his wrist, the weapon suddenly boiled and wrapped up the entire cloth.
This was arms without temperature, just like a gust of wind. Although the cloth was blown into the wind, it did not cause any harm to it.
Ouyang Ming's spirit is highly concentrated, and what he needs to do next is the real key.
The edge of the weapon suddenly changed color, and the temperature suddenly increased, reaching the point of melting gold and iron. At this temperature, the cloth was naturally unable to resist and burned immediately.
This is a process of refining the cloak. In this process, the excess scraps are removed by special means, the essence is tempered, mixed with mysterious dust, and attached to the main body of the cloak. Although this method is a bit cumbersome, once it is successfully refined, it is enough to raise the level of the cloak to a higher level.
According to Wu Hongxi, this is an exclusive secret method that he has figured out.
Although Ouyang Ming is dubious about this, since this technique can promote the balance of strength and softness, he will spare no effort to practice it.
A thick fog quickly gathered together and spread toward the center.
All of this seems to be a replica of the time when Wu Hongxi was refining it.
However, just when everything seemed to be going well, Ouyang Ming's expression suddenly changed, and he whispered: "Not good!"
And in the next moment, a ball of fire ignited from the cloth, and in just a moment, the cloth was completely burned.
However, Ouyang Ming's reaction was extremely quick, and he used his weapons to absorb the flames before they started to spread.
This is another special ability of the weapon, which was accidentally discovered when he almost set Old Man Tiandi's vegetable garden on fire. With this ability, Ouyang Ming has the ability to protect himself even in a huge fire, let alone a small flame in the room.
Ouyang Ming frowned slightly, carefully recalling the changes in the scene just now.
Sure enough, the special refining method left by Wu Hongxi is not so easy to imitate.
Although Ouyang Ming could change the temperature of the weapons, it was an overall change. However, when refining the cloak, the weapon needs to show two different temperatures at the same time.
One is no temperature, or normal temperature, a temperature that does not make people feel hot or cold.
The other type is a high temperature that can burn cloth into ashes in a very short time. For these two different temperatures to appear in the refining process at the same time, the difficulty is beyond Ouyang Ming's ability to control.
Of course, since Wu Hongxi can do it, there is no reason why Ouyang Ming can't do it.
However, this requires a certain amount of time to try and apply, and is not something that can be achieved overnight.
Thinking of the way Wu Hongxi turned around and left without any regrets after giving him the key points, Ouyang Ming knew that he had already reached this point.
Sitting down firmly, Ouyang Ming took out a piece of talisman paper from his arms and gently tore it open.
Suddenly, a strange and mysterious force was released. This power did not spread very far, but lingered within three meters of him.
Ouyang Ming closed his eyes and took a long breath. Both the physical fatigue and the mental tiredness slowly disappeared at this moment. He felt like he had just taken a hot spring bath, feeling so comfortable that he wanted to moan.
Energy Rune, that was one of the biggest benefits he got along the way.
Under the nourishment of this rune, Ouyang Ming's energy and spirit suddenly climbed to its peak state.
Although the consumption in these few days is not great, since you want to learn a new ability, it is better to maintain the best condition.
His spiritual consciousness was once again immersed in the sea of consciousness. That powerful spiritual power of more than fifty points was undoubtedly Ouyang Ming's biggest backing.
The reason why he was able to communicate with the purple light group so quickly was not only due to the unity of heaven and man and his meticulous state of mind, but also due to his incredible spiritual power.
Both of these are indispensable.
Slowly, Ouyang Ming's spiritual consciousness underwent subtle changes.
After its deliberate exploration, it was actually connected to the purple light group. Not only that, he also applied the abilities he learned from Wu Hongxi to the fusion at this moment.
After seeing Wu Hongxi's unity of nature and man, Ouyang Ming had a new understanding and appreciation of this realm.
At this time, what he wanted was true and complete integration. Because only in this way can he achieve one fire and multiple temperatures in a short period of time.
Wu Hongxi thought that he was young and had plenty of time to slowly explore and practice.
However, only Ouyang Ming knows that his time is extremely precious and cannot be wasted at all.
The beast tide in Changlong County will break out at God knows when, and he wants to kill the spirit beasts before it's too late to save everything.
To him, every minute and every second is so precious.
He spread his hands flatly, and a strong flame quickly emerged. When these flames spread to half a meter around him, they suddenly underwent strange changes.
The corners of the flame began to light up little by little, and as the brightness increased, its temperature also gradually increased. But the strange thing is that in the center of the flame, there is no change at all. It seems that the scorching surrounding flames no longer belong to this group of fire.
Ouyang Ming opened his eyes and looked at the flames of two completely different temperatures in his palms, with a deep smile on his lips.
I understand what this word soft is!
At this time, what made him happy was not just that he had mastered the word "soft", but because he unexpectedly touched the threshold of refining a space bag!
