Chapter 185 - 133 Stone Artifact Master_3
When he felt the stone was heated sufficiently, he instructed a young wanderer to fetch a bag of water.
Then, with two wooden sticks, he pulled the scorching stone material from the fire pit, placed it outside the house, and poured water over it.
"Sizzle..."
A great amount of white steam emerged as the hot stone was doused with water.
The Elder Black Stone finished pouring a pot of water and promptly picked up the still-warm stone material, returned inside, sat by the fire pit, holding the stone in his left hand and the stone hammer in his right, beginning to strike along the stone’s grain.
Every strike from Elder Black Stone opened cracks in the stone material. After a few precise hammer blows, the first thin stone flake was completely "peeled" off, reminiscent of peeling a garlic clove.
As the striking sounded continuously, a piece of stone the size of a palm gradually transformed into over a dozen sharp-edged stone flakes and a small amount of waste material.
Such a skilled technique left Jiang Xuan feeling amazed.
And this was only the beginning.
