My Cultivation System

Chapter 156 - Weapon Refining



So far, Henrick was always correct about the trials as it was very easy to say what the trial was about from its name.

Nevertheless, the trial master had already said all instructions would be provided one he entered the trial room. So, he entered trial room number 11 without any worry.

​​

'Swoosh'

As soon as he entered the trial room, his surroundings changed and this time it looked like a workshop that was used for refining weapons.

'There are various materials except for fire. Maybe I have to use my pure internal fire to refine a weapon,' Henrick carefully observed his surroundings to get a rough idea about the trial.

'However, the thing is I don't any refining techniques,'

Actually, what he was searching for was a book or something that might help me refine a weapon.

Henrick never had much interaction with professions like alchemy and weaponsmithy. So, he didn't have the slightest idea on how to refine a weapon.

'Ding,

          The trial master has sent the instructions for the level ascending trial.

'Ding,

          A projection of a weapon refinement will be shown to the challenger. As soon as the projection ended, he would be given exactly three hours to refine a weapon of his own.

'Ding,

        The sooner the challenger refines a weapon, the higher the reward will be.

Just as he was searching for something that might help him in learning how to refine a weapon, his system displayed the notifications sent by the trial master.

'Phew...at least there is a projection to watch,'

After seeing the system notifications, Henick heaved a sigh of relief as finally, some help was coming at him.

Before coming to the trial number, Henrick felt the trial would be hard to complete but since he requested the trial, he could not go back now.

'Even if I fail this trial, I can once again request the trial after a week. Nevertheless, I have to try my best in completing the trial; otherwise, I have to delay my cultivation even longer,'

Henrick thought about the pros and cons of his current situation before asking the trial master, "Trial master, I am ready. Start the projection."

'Swoosh'

As soon as he said, a projection of a young man of around the same age as Henrick appeared in front of him.

'Clang'

'Thud'

'Swoosh'

The young man didn't waste a single second and the moment he appeared in front of Henrick he took out a small rectangular block of an unknown metal.

In the next step, he used his internal fire energy which was not as pure as Henrick's to heat the metal block to a specific temperature.

Within a few moments, the block started melting.

"It is falling onto the ground,"

Henrick was completely involved in the projection and he felt it was real. So, when he saw the liquid metal was about to fall to the ground, he unconsciously shouted at the young man.

However, the young man's internal fire energy caught the falling liquid metal.

'Sword'

The young man slowly muttered to himself and the internal fire energy which caught the liquid metal turned into a sword mould and the liquid metal occupied that mould.

'Lower the heat,'

Once again, the young man muttered to himself which was barely audible to Henrick.

As soon as he said that, the liquid metal started turning into a solid.

'What the...'

Henrick was shocked by each step performed by the young man and at the same time, his curiosity regarding the internal fire energy control increased as he thought, 'Can I do that?'

Even though he had perfected the 'Basic flame manipulation technique' he still didn't know whether he could control the temperature of his internal fire energy.

'I will see whether I can do it or not after the protection is completed,'

Soon, he stopped thinking about other things and once again focused on the weapon refining done by the young man.

'Swoosh'

Once the liquid metal completely turned into solid, the internal fire energy completely covered the sword inside the mould.

'What is he doing?'

At the same time, the young man closed his eyes and did something that Henrick didn't understand.

Nevertheless, he continued to observe the young man to understand what he was doing.

'Phew'

After some time, the young man finally opened his eyes with a sigh of relief and similarly, his internal fire energy which completely covered the sword in the mould, also opened revealing a shining sword.

'What? It is completed already? What did he do in the last step?'

As for Henrick, who was trying to find out what the young man was doing was shocked when he saw the shining sword in front of the young man.

'Swoosh'

Soon, the young man's projection disappeared leaving a slight smile as Henrick as though he was a real being.

'Ding,

          The projection finished the refinement.

'Ding,

          The 'special trial- weaponsmithy' officially begins now.

'Ding,

            Challenger, you have exactly three hours to refine a weapon of your choice.

However, Henrik didn't have the luxury to think about anything before his sight was filled with the system notifications.

'Damn it...I still didn't know what he did at the end,'

Henrick became a little anxious when he saw the system notifications.

"Sigh...I will give it a try,"

With a sigh, Henrick moved forward and took a block of metal from the workbench.

'Come out,'

In the next step, he summoned his pure internal fire energy and with that, he held the metal block in the mid-air.

'Start'

Soon, he continued to add his pure internal fire energy to the already summoned internal fire energy which was holding the metal block to increase the temperature to melt the block.

'Since I am unable to maintain the temperature of pure internal fire energy at will, then I will use the quantity to increase or decrease the temperature,'

Henrick silently thought in his head as he continued to heat up the metal block.

Within a few moments, the metal block turned into liquid metal.

'Drip'

'Oh no'

However, he was unable to hold the liquid metal with his pure internal fire energy as it flowed out and started falling onto the ground one drop after another.

'Ding,

          Weapon refinement failed.

The system notification informed the refinement was failed.

'Sigh'

Henrick sighed as he took another metal block and repeated the process.

'Finally, I am able to hold the liquid metal with the help of my pure internal fire energy,'

After failing three times in a row, Henrick passed the step that was holding him back.

'Now, mould for a dagger,'

With the help of the 'Basic fire manipulation technique' Henrick was able to create a dagger mould with his pure internal fire energy.

'Flow,'

He skillfully controlled the liquid metal to flow into that mould and the extra mould was thrown aside by him.

'I can do it,'

Henrick slowly decreased the percentage of his pure internal fire energy from the mould and made the mould thinner and thinner. So that the liquid metal could be cooled sooner.

'Yes, it is turning solid,'

Henrick was excited as everything was going well for him until he heard the sound 'Kacha' from the mould in front of him.
