Deep within the sunless fire vein.
"Frying Ore like vegetables?"
"Yes."
"And stir-frying?" fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
"Exactly."
The two Elders looked at Xiao Li, who was speaking earnestly, and subtly inhaled a hot breath. They both wondered if the fire vein was too hot and had damaged Xiao Li's brain.
This is a fire vein, not a kitchen!
They are Divine Craftsmen, not chefs!
What nonsense!
They suddenly doubted whether Xiao Li could become a Divine Craftsman. After all, no matter how good the hardware conditions were, if his mind had problems... it would be tough.
"Why are you looking at me with that kind of gaze?"
The two Elders' gazes were impolite. Li Mo cleared his throat and said, freewebnovel.cσ๓
"The mastery of heat in cooking and refining is equally important, right?"
"Right..."
"Then the auxiliary Materials Elder Zeng just sprinkled, aren't they like adding seasoning?"
"That does make some sense."
Elder Zeng fell into contemplation.
Li Mo then looked at Elder Han He: "And isn't your constant flipping and forging of iron blocks similar to stir-frying?"
"It's not entirely without reason..."
Elder Han He also fell into contemplation.
But then, both of them shook their heads simultaneously.
What kind of Dao is this? Can metal and stone be the same as ingredients?
They almost got tricked by this kid!
No wonder the Demon Summoning Sect was so easily misled by Li Mo...
"This is just an idea; I still need to try it out."
Li Mo was full of drive, as he still hoped to further enhance his physique with the aid °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° of the Divine Treasure Hundred Refinements martial art.
If the two could be combined, his efficiency would be much higher!
"If it's convenient for you two Elders, please teach me your respective refining methods. I'll spend half an hour learning..."
"What the hell?"
"Half an hour? It's over, Li Mo is truly insane..."
Elder Han He and Elder Zeng muttered to themselves.
They both started as apprentices, and they have been involved in the Dao of forging for nearly Sixty years.
Li Mo opened his mouth and said he would learn both of their weapon-casting methods, and in just half an hour.
Even if it was just the simplest refining among them...
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
But looking at Li Mo's eager expression, a strange thought inexplicably arose in their hearts.
What if?
For someone his age to create a Supreme martial art and be able to wield a Divine Weapon is already inconceivable. As the Fourth on the Qianlong Ranking, who among them isn't extraordinary and beyond common sense?
"Alas, alright, this is my weapon-casting technique."
"Let you give it a try."
Two thick booklets were handed to him by the two Elders.
They were respectively "Divine Weapon Refining Method" and "Five Elements Refining Method."
Li Mo didn't mind the hot ground, sat down on the spot, and began to study.
In half an hour, to meticulously read through both books, word by word, would already be considered exceptionally talented, let alone comprehending and mastering them.
But Li Mo truly only needed to read them.
Ten years of Martial Arts Comprehension successfully injected...
In the first year, you learned "Divine Weapon Refining Method," understood the characteristics of various Ore, and forging methods, and began to practice...
In the second year, your "Divine Weapon Refining Method" reached Major Achievement.
In the tenth year, you reached Transcendent, successfully mastering the method for refining Materials required for Divine Weapons, but due to immature physique and conditions, you are still unable to truly utilize it.
....
Ten years of Martial Arts Comprehension successfully injected....
In the first year, you learned "Five Elements Refining Method".....
.....
"Done?"
Exactly half an hour passed. Seeing Li Mo stand up, Elder Han He and Elder Zeng looked at him, one smiling wryly, the other with a searching gaze.
Li Mo nodded, and said seriously, "Yes, I can barely give it a try."
Actually, he only spent half an hour, not a full hour.
He just stayed seated a bit longer, afraid the two Elders wouldn't be able to accept it.
"Then let this Elder see how you plan to 'fry vegetables'!" Elder Han He still found it hard to believe.
"Good!"
No sooner said than done.
"First, heat the pot."
Li Mo walked directly to Elder Zeng's large cauldron and poured scorching karma true Qi into it. The array patterns instantly lit up, and the earth fire within the fire vein surged, licking the cauldron.
The temperature of the large cauldron suddenly rose.
"Then, add a generous amount of oil to coat the pot."
Li Mo solemnly poured in Black Fiend Wood Oil.
He kept talking as he worked.
"?"
Elder Han He and Elder Zeng were stunned.
Mainly, this kid was acting like it was real.
A cooking show with commentary, huh?
And, wait, they were just arguing about who would teach Li Mo; they were the teachers!
"Heat the oil, then add the ingredients!"
"First, slowly raise the temperature to soften the iron Ore ~ Hmm, that's about right, then add the auxiliary Materials."
"Now, stir-fry over high heat!"
Li Mo imitated Elder Zeng's method, purifying a large batch of iron Ore.
Then, like flipping a wok, he tossed the large cauldron, causing the iron blocks to flip and fold in the air.
Finally, after some thought, he took out Forty and, mimicking Elder Han He's method, began to clang and bang on the ingredients in the pot... Oh no, the iron blocks.
The entire process flowed like water, cyclical!
During this process, Impurities were removed, and the texture became more compact.
And, with his forging, Divine Treasure Hundred Refinements also operated!
He wasn't just refining Ore!
He was also refining himself!
He was the forger, and even more so, the Divine Iron being forged!
Extreme Soldier Slaughtering Body, which had not progressed for a long time, actually began to slowly advance. This was already quite remarkable, as the better the weapon or Ore forged by Divine Treasure Hundred Refinements, the greater the improvement to one's physique.
Currently, he was merely refining ordinary iron Ore.
"Hoo..."
Li Mo's chest was like a bellows, breathing fire and iron, performing a thousand refinements on the iron block!
This scene truly ignited something!
"Reduce over high heat, plate, and serve!" Chef Li finally completed his first masterpiece!
He tossed the pot again.
The small amount of iron liquid remaining in the cauldron was carried by his hammer wind and landed on the cauldron lid.
As it gradually cooled, it revealed its original form.
What was originally a large pile of Ore was now only palm-sized.
It was silvery-white, with a luster like rippling water, yet its texture was incredibly hard.
"Iron... Essence?!"
Elder Han He and Elder Zeng were completely speechless, their expressions more horrified than if they had seen a ghost.
......
Congratulations, Host, for successfully improving the 'stir-frying steel method,' elevating Shenbing Peak's forging techniques to a higher level.
Investment feedback, Mica Heavy Cauldron.
That day, the Disciples of Shenbing Peak received a shocking piece of news.
The Forging Institute was undergoing a new reform, establishing exchange and mutual assistance with the Qingyuan Sect canteen to jointly research new technologies.
Therefore.
From now on, there would be an additional entrance examination: one must first go to the canteen to practice chef skills such as flipping woks and stir-frying.
Ten thousand unknown creatures galloped through the Disciples' minds.
And the instigator...
He was already carrying a vegetable basket and on his way back to Autumn Water Pavilion.
"Don't say it, forging iron all day is truly tiring."
"Fortunately, Divine Treasure Hundred Refinements has also reached the introductory stage..."
Li Mo dragged his slightly sore limbs back to Autumn Water Pavilion.
Where he walked, the snow on the road melted into water.
He was wearing a pure yang long gown today; besides having excessive Yang Qi, the clothes weren't burned.
But the problem was that in that environment, the accumulation of Yang Qi was extremely fast, and now his 'fire' was in an overly vigorous state.
To put it simply, he was very 'fiery' right now.
"What is Ice Cube doing?"
Li Mo opened the courtyard gate of Autumn Water Pavilion, and a thought involuntarily arose in his tired mind.
If only someone could cool him down.
Her smooth, fair little hands would definitely feel cool and refreshing to hold right now.
As everyone knows, Ice Cube is entirely cool and aloof; if he could stick to her like that... it would surely be very comfortable!
