Becoming a Saint From the Iron Armor Skill

Chapter 484: Chapter 240: Floating Light Spirit Armor

"Brother Cheng said this was a secret. No one is to know besides the two senior sisters."

But Shen Qingyao grew even more curious and asked, "Junior Brother Chen is cultivating the Frost Snow Sword Technique and also forging... what is he up to?"

Naturally, there was no answer to this question.

...

In the forge, it was a world of ice and fire.

On one side, a shirtless Luo Tiezhu busily worked the bellows. The mechanism, modified with Tier Five Flood Dragon Tendons, supplied a continuous, steady blast of air, causing the furnace to erupt with scorching blue flames that smelted the Ink Crystal Stone and Black Gold Ore.

On the other side, Chen Cheng activated his Qi Blood Power and unleashed the Momentum of Frost Snow Condensation. He drew threads of icy aura from the Cold Crystal Jade to envelop the smelted Black Gold.

Occasionally, he would withdraw the cold qi and strike the Black Gold with a hammer.

This Frost Snow Condensation was, of course, Chen Cheng’s completely revised version of the Frost Snow Sword Technique. It had no other use besides condensing an icy aura.

That was why Chen Cheng had renamed it Frost Snow Condensation.

As a stripped-down version of the Cultivation Technique, the greatest advantage of Frost Snow Condensation was that it could be mastered quickly. Within a few days, Chen Cheng had not only fully cultivated its Momentum, but had also comprehended its Essence of Realm Map.

However, his progress in the Frost Snow Condensation Realm was not even at ten percent. Using it often consumed a great deal of Qi Blood Power.

Since Chen Cheng possessed the Cold Crystal Jade, using the Momentum of Frost Snow Condensation to condense the icy aura consumed far less Qi Blood Power.

Therefore, he still used the Momentum of Frost Snow Condensation most of the time.

Of course, it wouldn’t be long before he fully mastered the Frost Snow Condensation Realm, and things would be much easier then.

Smelting a treasure like the Ink Crystal Stone was truly difficult; the furnace had to continuously output scorching flames.

Chen Cheng and Luo Tiezhu worked in shifts around the clock, continuously manning the bellows. They were so busy they didn’t even have time to eat.

Luo Tiezhu was advanced in years and his Martial Arts Power was only at the Skin Grinding Realm, so he needed more time to rest. Thus, most of the work fell to Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng was truly getting a taste of the hardships faced by an Artifact Refining Master!

"Ah Cheng, Xiaowan brought some food," said Luo Tiezhu.

"Mm." Chen Cheng gave a slight nod, still focused on condensing the icy aura. Only after a long while, when the Black Gold was nearly processed, did he hurry to get his food.

After hastily finishing his meal, he took over for Luo Tiezhu at the bellows.

...

Time flew by. A month passed in the blink of an eye, and it was now deep winter.

Smelting the Ink Crystal Stone had taken much longer than expected, but the process was finally nearing completion.

The bellows still couldn’t be stopped, but Chen Cheng had now completely mastered the Frost Snow Condensation Realm, making it much easier to condense the icy aura with the Cold Crystal Jade.

Chen Cheng could even work the bellows and condense the icy aura at the same time.

Luo Tiezhu, meanwhile, focused on drafting the blueprints for the Ink Gold Inner Armor.

The skills of an Artifact Refining Master were clearly not so easily acquired.

To forge the Ink Gold Inner Armor, Luo Tiezhu was pushing himself to the limit, using every skill at his disposal.

The blueprint he was drafting was for an Array called the Floating Light and Shadow Array.

With his level of strength, Luo Tiezhu shouldn’t have been able to embed an Array while forging the Inner Armor.

But since Chen Cheng had cultivated the Great Power Realm, with Luo Tiezhu guiding him, it was worth a shot.

According to Luo Tiezhu, without embedding the Floating Light and Shadow Array, the chances of forging the Ink Gold Inner Armor into a Pseudo-Spiritual Artifact were extremely low.

But by embedding the Floating Light and Shadow Array, there was an eighty percent chance of turning the Ink Gold Inner Armor into a Pseudo-Spiritual Artifact.

"Phew! The draft is finally complete!"

Luo Tiezhu let out a long breath. His aged face was etched with exhaustion, but his eyes shone with excitement.

Drafting an Array was an extremely precise and intricate skill. Without decades of practice, a person couldn’t even hope to understand the blueprints, let alone embed an Array into Inner Armor.

Chen Cheng took the blueprints for the Inner Armor and glanced at them, immediately feeling overwhelmed.

The key points of a single suit of Inner Armor contained thousands, perhaps even tens of thousands, of densely packed, hair-fine patterns.

Not to mention the various complex interlocking joints between the patterns!

"This Floating Light and Shadow Array is truly incredible!" Chen Cheng exclaimed in awe.

After a quick glance at the style of the Inner Armor, he suddenly frowned slightly and said with some doubt, "Elder Luo, the design of this Inner Armor seems a little strange.

If it’s made like this, can it really protect the entire body?"
