Chapter 1173: Soul Piercing Dagger


    ?


    Ace didn''t know that his action of refining the materials with Chuchu''s spirit fire had just revealed something extraordinary about Chuchu to the two outer sect elders, as he was fully focused on the forging.


    He could do without it, but then he knew he wouldn''t be able to forge a grade-9 treasure because using a spirit fire raised the chances of the final product tremendously, whether it was in alchemy or forging; even the rune crafting was the same.


    Furthermore, he had another reason to use Chuchu''s spirit fire: He wanted to hide the extraordinary properties of his Holy Twilight Qi, which he upgraded with his avatar and called the Holy Twilight Spirit Qi.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    It shocked even him when it happened while he was still in the thief''s house.

    At that time, Ace instantlyprehended the Law of Holy Twilight, which was actually thebination of the Law of Light and Creation, at 100% proficiency. Thereby, he not only gained a massive boost in his own power but alsoprehended one of the most powerful and mysteriousws of Creation, which can only beprehended byprehending the concept of Life first. It was a true Mother Law!


    Anyhow, the Holy Twilight Spirit Qi can purify anything with its passive Law Heal, which is exactly what the forgers did with the materials. Although he wasn''t sure if it''d work or if they were the same concept, he had a feeling that he was on to something.


    So, now that he had a chance to refine the materials, he wanted to test his theory but didn''t want to show it to the others since he knew Twilight Spirit Qi was unique to the B.E.L.L. He won''t be able to avoid others with greed if they find out about his Qi special aspect.


    Nheless, Ace wasn''t afraid, even the slightest, since he already had a contingency n in case things didn''t work out. Or he wouldn''t be swaggering around his abilities.


    In fact, once he got into the AIG Sect, he wanted others toe after him and give him a reason to retaliate. His goals weren''t simple and short-term this time around.


    Once Chuchu''s mes encased the materials under his Qi, Ace instantly felt a scorching sensation through his Qi, but since Chuchu had no intent of harming him, he was able to endure it. That''s the power of a Spirit Fire.


    Furthermore, at this moment, when Ace starts using the Law Heal on the materials while using his memories of the runic smith to create ink for special codex runes, he finds that Chuchu''s spirit fire seems to be amplifying his Qi for some reason.


    Moreover, he was also using his Qi control to let some mes reach the materials, using the me control principles of the Runic smiths.


    Since those materials were only Grade-8, they started to melt within seconds under Ace''s control as he immersed himself in the task.


    His mind was a whirlwind of calctions and techniques. Chuchu''s spirit fire, a zing inferno, engulfed the raw materials. As the metals melted, Ace injected his Holy Twilight Qi, a counterbnce to the intense heat.


    The Qi imbued with the Prime Law, began to purify the molten mass, drawing out impurities like dark tendrils.


    The transformation was rapid. Eight molten spheres formed, each a pulsating orb, and he ordered Chuchu to retract her mes before he manipted them with precise movements,


    combining them into a single, inky, viscous liquid.


    This ink was called the Piercing Soul Ink and used in creating the codex runes, the Piercing Soul, which granted a weapon not only a passive soul attack ability every time it shes someone but also an active ability called Piercing Soul sh, which was a soul attack. He naturally got this form from one of the jade scrolls.


    Creating runes was his bread and butter since whether it was codex runes or philosopher runes; they followed the same principles of rune crafting. So now that the ink was in, the easy


    part was done.


    cing the Piercing Soul Ink in a pod, he enveloped the three main materials and refined


    them using his Qi and Chuchu''s mes. This method was actually quite a high-level technique of a peak Runic Smith of Grade-8 called Active Qi Fire Smiting, whichpletely suits Ace''s


    needs.


    Soon, the three materials were melted, and using the Qi control, he againbined them in a special sequence, little by little, before he put the molten mixture on the anvil, and a ck runic hammer appeared in his hand.


    He started to hammer the molten mixture while shaping it with his Qi using the Twelve Soul Hammer technique in his memories. Even though he didn''t expand much Qi, he still felt the strain and was slightly anxious as he hammered that molten mixture into the shape of a


    dagger.


    Ace never thought he would forge something someday, and since it was his first time, he waspletely invested in it andpletely forgot about the test or the crowd behind him. He felt the same way whenever he focused on rune crafting, which gave him a strange peace of


    mind.


    With a solemn expression, while the mixture was still not cooling down, Ace used his Qi again, and the ink in the pod appeared again. Ace masterfully controlled the ink and started to shape it into fine runes-like threads, slowly etching them into the molten metal one by one in


    sequence.


    Powerful Soul undtions started to rise as he etched the ink onto the surface of the de while making sizzling sounds. Once the runic sequence wasplete, the dagger was sounded with a hazyyer of dark blue mist, and Ace knew it was time to finish the job as he quickly used the hammer and struck the metal in a peculiar rhythm.


    With every smite, the hazy mist seemed to be absorbed by the de, revealing its fine and shining surface with intricate patterns. With one final smite, ''Bang!''


    A powerful force suddenly appeared before it vanished, revealing the shining ocean crescent blue dagger with tiny runes etched on its razor-sharp edges. This gave the others a feeling of


    invincible death!


    "Soul Piercing Dagger isplete!"


    Ace muttered while whipping his sweat with a hint of pride as he looked at his very first


    forged weapon, an initial-stage Grade-9 weapon!
