Chapter 2316: Second Sacred Tool (2)
Tang Nazhi’s eyes widened at once. He looked at the ame in Shen Yanxiao’s palm in disbelief, wondering
if he were seeing things.
“Little Xiao, what is that?” How could Shen Yanxiao come up with such a magical thing?
“Fire elemental spirit.” Shen Yanxiao replied.
Tang Nazhi had been rendered completely speechless by Shen Yanxiao. This girl was certainly an evildoer.
Elemental spirit…
Tang Nazhi looked at the sky without a word; what things could this little girl not do?
Tang Nazhi had received a huge blow from Shen Yanxiao; he could only lend a hand in Shen Yanxiao’s
work absentmindedly.
This was not Shen Yanxiao’s rst time creating a sacred tool, so the whole process was done routinely and
with ease; from the quenching of each piece of metal to the nal fusion, it all had gone unusually smooth.
She did not encounter any diculties at all.
Watching as Shen Yanxiao constantly fused the metals smoothly, Tang Nazhi sighed, “I suddenly think
Yang Xi is going to lose his job…”
“What?” Shen Yanxiao was staring intently at the fusing metal in her hands, unable to take her eyes o.
“Now that you can create weapons, and ones that look very advanced to boot, then Yang Xi… isn’t that guy
going to lose his job?” Every member of the Phantom had an indispensable position. Yang Xi had always
played the role of a handwork expert; from making imitations of things to most of the equipment in The
Rising Sun City, it was basically all made by Yang Xi. Now, looking at this image of Shen Yanxiao, she
already had the momentum to catch up to and even surpass Yang Xi.
Shen Yanxiao couldn’t keep from laughing.
“There is an essential dierence between an alchemist and a forgeman. What I can build can not be made
by Yang Xi. Similarly, what he can do can not be accomplished by me.” In the nal analysis, alchemists
created things that did not exist in this world through equivalent exchange; they stimulated the spiritual
force hidden deep within a metal, and gave life to that metal. Forgemen, on the other hand, built weapons
based on the strength and properties of the metals. One was based on the metal itself and the other was
based on the user; the two could not be confused.
For example, weapons made by any race could be used by anyone at will, without any racial boundaries,
but alchemy products created by alchemists had great limitations.
Alchemists could never replace forgemen, because alchemy itself consumed the spiritual force of
alchemists, and it was impossible to carry it out on a large scale. Relying solely on a small number of
alchemists, it was simply impossible to popularize alchemy products. Unless the circumstances were as
they were here, with the majority of the dwarves learning alchemy.
There was an essential dierence between human beings and dwarves: not every human being was
suited to learning alchemy. Ordinary people with thin dou qi and magic would not be able to develop a
superhuman spiritual force, and naturally could not awaken the soul in metal.
Therefore, Tang Nazhi’s idea was simply unreliable.
“Oh, oh.” Tang Nazhi nodded incomprehensibly and stared excitedly at the fusing metals that had been
quenched by Shen Yanxiao.
“How do you want to wear the sacred tool?” Shen Yanxiao had reached the nal stage and was about to
nalize the sacred tool.
“Make it a ring, too; it’s a little more convenient that way.” Tang Nazhi had been itching ever since he
looked at the sacred tool of Shen Yanxiao. He did not hesitate to choose the same pattern of sacred tool
as Shen Yanxiao.
Shen Yanxiao smiled and nodded her head.
