Within seconds, the hard alloy began to soften, its surface glowing a dim red before turning into a blinding, bright white liquid.
"This is it."
Han Feng's eyes narrowed as the Divine Sense within his Sea of Consciousness surged forth without reservation.
In the past, Artifact Refining relied on molds.
You would first melt the metal into a liquid, pour it into a mold, and let it cool and solidify.
But the items made that way were just lifeless objects.
True Artifact Refining required one to infuse their Sword Essence and intended Runes into the material while it was still in a liquid state.
"Rise!"
Han Feng let out a low cry.
Inside the furnace chamber, the blob of bright white liquid metal didn't flow to the bottom as it normally would.
Instead, drawn by an invisible force, it slowly levitated in mid-air.
If an outsider were here, they would have assumed the anti-gravity system was malfunctioning.
