Chapter 48: Washing Frenzy Technique Iron Forging Breathing Method

  One hour later, Gan Jing was panting heavily and threw the sharpened large axe in front of Blake.

  It wasn't until then that Gan Jing felt that the physical strength consumed by sharpening a knife was in no way less than that of forging iron. In order to sharpen this axe, not only did his arms need to use force, but also his waist, back, legs, and every muscle in his body had to exert different frequencies of force, which could be even more tiring than forging iron.

  Blake blew on the axe's blade edge and smiled in satisfaction: "Good, you've learned the first level of Blade Sharpening."

  "What's Whetstone? I'm supposed to learn Grinding, aren't I?" Qian Jin had been too engrossed in watching Blake sharpen his knife and hadn't heard the system spirit's prompt. Now that he brought up his attributes, he was stunned.

  Whetstone Technique: Maxed! [Conditions for learning Washing Edge Technique met]

  Wash Blade Technique: Beginner!

  "What's sharpening a knife?" Black sneered coldly: "If you don't know how to wash the edge, how can you become a divine craftsman?"

  Divine Artisan? Dian Ke stared blankly at Blake again, although he didn't know what the Divine Artisan of the Infinite World represented, but in his own world, a Divine Artisan was extremely rare. Since the history of humans and demons on the continent began, the total number of Divine Artisans that had appeared could be counted on one hand, even if you cut off three fingers.

  In the current mainland, whether it is the human world or the demon clan, the blacksmith has a very high status. As for the divine craftsman? It's even rare for a blacksmith to have such a ridiculous dream.

  "It's all right, talking so much is pointless. As long as you work hard, you'll naturally understand later." Blake carried the iron hammer and came to the furnace again, saying to Qianjin: "You should have rested well, now I'll teach you something new."

  Qianjin really wanted to tell Blake that he was now suffering from muscle soreness all over his body, and going down the stairs would probably cause pain in both legs. However, facing Blake's excited expression, he could only temporarily shut up.

  "The way of hammering, I will teach you many times, so today you can learn as much as you want, even if you don't learn it's okay." Blake's expression appeared cautious for the first time, looking at Qianjin: "As for this iron breathing method, you must study it seriously."

  "Blacksmith breathing method?" Kane looked at Blake in surprise. There's a coordinated breathing technique for blacksmithing? This was the first time he'd heard of it.

  "Yes, the iron breathing method. It can only be used when forging, and even if you want to use it or practice it in daily life, it's impossible." Blake said calmly: "Looking at that burning flame, take a deep breath, imagine that you have absorbed the life of that flame into your body, breathe in with force!"

  "It's so hot!"

  Qianjin took a fierce breath, feeling as if his chest was going to burn like it had real burning charcoal and wood put into his lungs, and for an instant when he opened his mouth, he even felt like flames were about to spew out.

  "Shut up! Breathe along the route I specified, at the breathing frequency!"

  Blake's face was set in a rare, stern expression. His fingers pressed into the Qi-infused body at its most turbulent point, slowly sliding to the right on his chest, tracing a path towards his arm. He said, "Hoo-hoo-hoo, three short calls! Then one long inhalation, imagine you're drawing the flame's life force into your body... Listen! Hoo-hoo, two short calls..."

  Qianjin exerted himself to control his own body, desperately following Blake's teachings on breathing while controlling the so-called fire that was moving inside him, its trajectory very strange.

  At first, he even thought it was a set of fist exercises. But soon, he denied this speculation, every single one of the fist holes specified by Blake on this route was a useless hole.

  Warriors! Due to the long years of war between humans and demons, a mature cultivation system has already been formed. In the formulation of this system, our predecessors have gone through countless explorations and discovered that the human body has many meridians. Some of these meridians can be cultivated into more powerful internal energy and internal air through the circulation and nourishment of internal energy, but some meridians are completely useless, no matter how they are nourished or circulated, and are called "废窍" (waste meridian) or "死窍" (dead meridian).

  The cultivation of Dou Jin and Dou Qi has never required any strange breathing coordination, it only needs to run Dou Jin and Dou Qi in the Dou Kongs and move them only within the living Kongs.

  The iron breathing method given by Blake is all dead ends, completely contrary to the records of all human classics.

  Two hours passed and Kenichi heard Blake's one sentence that could stop him, then he hastily sat on the ground panting heavily.

  "You rest first, watch me work the iron." Blake was happier than he had ever been before, holding a hammer in each hand and striking a glowing piece of metal nonstop.

  Unlike before, this time Blake's technique has fewer moves than before. Looking back and forth, it seems like there are only eighteen lines of attack, but the dryness feels that these simple eighteen moves are much harder to learn than before. It seems to contain a lot of changes, not to mention that even these simple eighteen moves have different requirements for force, trajectory speed, etc.

  Three hours passed and Blake finally stopped continuing to practice. The big hammer was thrown under Qian Jin's feet, saying: "Hit me until I tell you to stop."

  "Hit until you stop?" Gan Jing struggled to get up from the ground, holding two large hammers, carefully recalling Blake's previous forging techniques. Suddenly, he discovered that what he thought he had already remembered and should have mastered, the way of swinging the hammer, was actually... only remembered once...

  Taking a deep breath, Gan Jing imagined the flames being sucked into his lungs. Suddenly, he felt the inhaled fire energy raging inside him like an unbridled wild horse. Hastily, he focused on controlling the Iron Forging Breathing Technique. With a sudden swing of his first hammer, he felt the surging power bursting into his arm, unleashing a force unlike anything he had ever experienced before. Even the trajectory of the hammer was slightly more controlled than he had imagined.

  Clang...

  "Pfft!" Qian Jin let out a loud, angry spit to cover up his own failure, secretly hating that what he had remembered and what actually happened when fighting were two different things.

  Blake sat alone in the corner puffing on his pipe, not even giving Qianjin a second glance, and returned to his original calmness, as if he couldn't see what Qianjin was doing at all.

  One hammer... ten hammers... fifty hammers... one hundred hammers... one hundred and thirty hammers...

  With a loud cheer and jumping for joy, after experiencing one hundred twenty-nine hammering failures, he finally hit the correct one.

  Right after that, the first hammering of thirty-one failed again... Gan Jing could only curl his lips and continue to lower his head to wield the hammer to forge iron, the iron forging breathing method had already started to become a habit unconsciously.
