Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master
604 The Soft Hard Golden Alloy
His idea was to mix materials from this world with the ones he acquired from the higher world, diluting and weakening the quality of the outer world materials, reaching a stage like quasi-legendary or even lower.
If this succeeded, then William would sacrifice the high-end grade of the weapon. But in such a way, he'd solve lots of problems that he couldn't solve by normal means.
In theory this should work, but William knew how hard it was to achieve it. If not for him coming from the future, if not for him being experienced in the outer world's materials, he'd face lots of problems while trying to do this.
He already went to the market and bought all the materials that could be used in such an experiment. And luckily the attack happened after he grabbed almost everything.
"Time to see if this is going to work," William started with the things he knew they'd be much easier to handle, herbs.
The first herb he selected was a fire based one. He selected one from the outer world and decided to combine it with ten from this world. Of course, to do that, he had first to use a concentrated level of spirit power, enough to affect the herb coming from the outer world. To do so, he established a spirit power gathering array, left it for an entire day to gather up enough spirit power inside a bubble shaped space.
William was now standing inside that array, while feeling nothing much but little pressure over him. Concentrating spirit power like this wasn't going to affect anyone. But when any process was done inside, that concentrated spirit power would start interfering, greatly impacting the outcome.
William started to use his spirit power to control this herb. The herb proved to be quite resilient at first, yet it slowly started to change and melt when he transformed into his black fox version.
When he changed into the fox form, something seemed to change at the surrounding spirit power. Previously he didn't feel that much pressure. But now? He felt like he was carrying the entire world on his back or something.
Yet he focused on the herb in front of him. In that pot, the herb started to shine, pieces of it started to turn fluid. This herb was special, it couldn't be squeezed or distilled to get its essence. It could only get exposed to higher concentration of spirit power, melt like ice meeting fire, turning entirely into fire essence.
As he saw the herb changing, he didn't care about any pressure. He kept enduring, until the entire herb got liquified. And then it was time to mix it with ten other herbs.
The other herbs only needed little pressure to release their essence. William started to squeeze one herb after another, add everything into the same pot, before he finally started fire.
"Please work," as his black fox version worked like magic here, he didn't cancel it. He endured the pressure for another ten minutes before the final liquid appeared in front of him.
"Time to see if it works or not," William knew this wasn't enough to tell if the experiment succeeded or not. This was a special place where spirit power wasn't acting normally at all.
So, he had to take the final liquid outside, praying inside himself that it'd succeed.
"Phew! It lost at least eighty percent of its original power, but it can be used in producing the weapon now," William heaved the first sigh of relief when the fluid didn't explode after stepping outside the array. When he tried to touch this fluid with his spirit power, he felt how stable and inert it was.
The only and expected downside of this process was for the herb original grade to lose a lot of its quality and strength. Yet that wasn't a big problem, it was the goal he wanted.
"Time to accelerate things then," as the first test worked, William got encouraged to widespread doing it. He spent the next two days experimenting and processing most of the materials he needed.
Not all the tests he conducted succeeded. In general, out of ten experiments, one had to fail. He suffered one explosion after another. And with each explosion, many monsters got attracted towards him, ending up wasting an hour or so dealing with these monsters.
For the wounds and exhaustion, he swallowed healing potions, and for spirit power consumption, he consumed elixirs. After two days, everything he prepared before got diluted and processed, all except for a single material.
"This Soft Hard Golden Alloy is going to be a problem," he stood in front of a pile of a special type of ores. It was one which was in a form that could be used directly without any processing.
It wasn't used commonly in forging, as it was very hard to melt and cleanse. It was better used to build stuff directly, impeded in weapons and gears. If forging in the tiny world depended over melting ores and pouring the finally cleansed alloy into a mould, then this process had lots of changes in the outer world. And that included this special alloy.
To make better weapons, Artisans in the outer world didn't depend on moulds. Instead, they'd use such ready alloys to form the core of any gear or weapon, then make the mould in the form of a container around this core. Then they'd pour the final mix into it and let it cool down.
The highest-grade artisans would use their hands directly to form the shape of the product, something that looked majestic. Like this, the final gear and weapons would have an extra level of sturdiness and strength, something that all the top weapons and gears here in the tiny world lacked.
As it couldn't be melted or processed, William had no way to deal with this special alloy. And without it, he knew the final weapon of his wouldn't be complete, wouldn't even get done!
