Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam? - Chapter 58

Chapter 58: Advanced Spirit Transformation Array!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The Spirit Transformation Array was one of the necessary arrays for forging high-level equipment.

Since the energy of the material itself was not strong, if one needed to cast Epic-grade or above equipment, one had to inject a huge amount of Essence into it.

The value of Epic Essence was usually around one million, while Legendary Essence was priceless, usually more than five million.

1

Essence was a miracle of nature, containing an immeasurable amount of energy. However, it did not fuse with equipment, and could only be transferred to equipment through the Spirit Transformation Array.

The Spirit Transformation Array was also a field of arrays with different levels.

!!

Wu Mo had only drawn a Tier 1 Spirit Transformation Array in the past, but Legendary equipment required at least Tier 2 arrays.

Thus, this segment was also a test for Wu Mo.

Moreover, Wu Mo had already expended a large amount of mental energy during the previous tempering, so the probability of successfully drawing a Tier 2 Spirit Transformation Array was not high.

Wu Mo picked up the forging pen and lightly dipped it in the ink. Then, he began to draw on the paper.

In the beginning, Wu Mo’s strokes were steady, and the twists and turns were naturally stable. But later, because his mental energy was empty, his ability to concentrate decreased, and even his hand trembled slightly as he held the forging pen.

Very quickly, he welcomed his first failure.

Up until now, Wu Mo had pretty much partially experienced the difficulty of forging a divine weapon.

He had stayed in the forging space for a long time, but he had not even taken the third step.

Just a Tier 2 Spirit Transformation Array was already as difficult as ascending to heaven, not to mention the subsequent Tier 3 binding method.

At this moment, Wu Mo finally experienced the difficulty of being a low-level blacksmith.

Due to a lack of spirit power, it was very difficult for them to forge equipment that was Rare grade or above.

Premium-grade equipment and weapons required at least a Tier 2 array. Although he had trained his spirit power a few times by relying on the backtracking ability, with his current spirit power, he was still unable to easily draw a Tier 2 array.

After failing more than ten times, Wu Mo’s originally excited expression had become somewhat numb.

The reason he failed every time was not because of his lack of skills or knowledge reserves, but because of his lack of spirit power. It prevented him from hitting the target, and mistakes followed.

Although he was deliberately conserving his spirit power, he still could not finish his drawing.

After more than 60% progress, he could feel his mind become heavier with each stroke as if he was on the verge of collapse again.

“Backtrack!”

White light flashed around the workbench. Wu Mo looked at the blank paper in front of him and fell into deep thought.

He could feel that the spirit energy in his mind would grow a little with every backtrack, but he could hardly feel the speed of improvement. There was less than half a month left before the graduation assessment. There was no time!

After realizing that the difficulties before him could not be solved with hard work, Wu Mo put down the forging pen and began to think.

He thought about it and immediately summoned the system interface.

The only thing he could rely on now was the system. Perhaps only through the system could he find the answer to his problems.

The improvement of spirit power could not be achieved overnight. He had to find other solutions!

Wu Mo glanced at his remaining points. He still had 5,486 points, enough for decent equipment or Epic-grade materials.

Wu Mo narrowed his eyes slightly and began to think about the connection between points and spirit power.

He had so many points now, which could be used to solve his current problem.

He could either exchange them for equipment that could quickly recover spirit power or an accessory that could increase the upper limit of his spirit power. In any case, the system had a wide variety of items in the mall, and equipment with all kinds of effects was available.

Wu Mo roughly looked around. His current points were enough for Premium-grade equipment with an exchangeable rating of 35-40. The effects of the equipment in this range were usually very good, comparable to the level of his Mercury Cloak.

However, most of them were to increase speed or strength, and only two of them met his requirements.

Equipment Name: Provincial Governor’s Gloves, Premium-grade equipment

Equipment Type: Hand Guard.

System Score: 38 points

Equipment Effect: Rest and Recuperate (recovers 5 spirit points every hour after wearing it).

National Luck (can withstand a full-strength attack from a four-star or below cultivator. Cooldown: 1 day).

Curtain Cloth Shoes, Premium-grade goods.

Equipment Type: Shoes

System score: 39 points.

Equipment Effect: Wisdom Star (increases 2 spirit limit)

Cloud Steps (equipped with 30% movement speed).

After looking at the two pieces of equipment that were related to spirit power, Wu Mo was a little dissatisfied with the attribute values.

These two pieces of equipment were basically used for raising spirit power only, and they did not have the slightest bit of combat ability. One look and one could tell that they were equipment provided for blacksmiths.

These two pieces of equipment required more than 5,000 points. Not only were they expensive, but their effects were also very simple.

It cost so many points just to increase spirit power. There was simply no cost-effectiveness ratio.

Flipping to the back, Wu Mo finally placed his target on the potions column.

Although the effects of these potions mostly lasted a mere four hours, their effects were not bad at all.

Miniature spirit power recovery potions only required 200 points. After taking it, one would recover a little spirit power every five minutes.

After seeing the effects of the potion, Wu Mo immediately chose to exchange for it without thinking.

He planned to use those points at the critical moment. After all, it was not easy to get them. He would definitely spend them on the edge of a knife.

The translucent interface in front of him then disappeared. Right then, a 20-milliliter tube-type potion appeared in Wu Mo’s hand. It contained blue potion. The material on the surface felt cold to the touch, and it was quite magical.

Since he had gotten it from the system, Wu Mo did not have any worries when using it. After unscrewing the lid, he poured the potion directly into his mouth.

It had a refreshing sweet taste. Once it entered his mouth, it immediately turned into a stream of heat that flowed into his limbs and bones.

At this time, Wu Mo clearly felt that the dizziness in his mind dissipate a little. He immediately picked up the forging pen and continued his unfinished array!

This time, because of the continuous supply of mental energy, Wu Mo seemed to be much calmer when he started drawing.

Moreover, every stroke was natural, and it did not seem to be drawn by a student at all.

By the time he reached the last dozen or so strokes, Wu Mo would pause for a few minutes for every stroke.

After the mental energy in his mind was replenished, he continued to draw.

Since each stroke had enough thought, Wu Mo did not fail in the final process.

After the last stroke, a burst of light appeared.

At that moment, Wu Mo immediately put the materials he had prepared on the drawn array.

With the energy supply, the array was immediately activated, and the target was the Legendary Essence on the iron block.

Wu Mo took a light breath and observed carefully.

He could only see a translucent mist rising from the formation, drifting toward the Legendary Essence. In just a few breaths, the Legendary Essence was completely wrapped inside.
