As a descendant of the Artifact Sect, a sense of loss filled his eyes.
In this era of spiritual decline, the items their sect could forge were limited!
"Why?"
"If you ask why... do you think we still have materials in this world capable of forging immortal swords? Or are you expecting me to use steel produced by modern industrial manufacturing to craft a Xuanyuan Sword? That's impossible, right?"
Qi Tian spread his hands. "Swords made from such materials, combined with our Artifact Sect's techniques, could indeed forge items that would be considered renowned swords in ancient times. Abilities like 'blowing off hair with a single stroke' or 'cutting iron like mud' were just the basics. Flexibility could also be pushed to its limits, and I could even imbue them with more abilities. However, the maximum potential of alloy materials, coupled with my 'Myriad Refining Divine Mechanism,' has reached its end."
"Alloys are powerful, perhaps even one of humanity's greatest discoveries."
"But, to forge an immortal sword, one needs immortal materials."
Qi Tian patiently explained to Lin Xiao, "What mortals can forge are merely mortal objects. Unless deities truly appear in this world, we have no way to create legendary artifacts like immortal swords." httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"Oh... Right, then can you forge things using modern military equipment?" Lin Xiao asked, nodding like a curious baby.
"Of course. Look, this pistol was my first practice piece." Qi Tian tossed a pistol to Lin Xiao.
The pistol's prototype was a Browning, but as soon as Lin Xiao held it, he knew this thing only looked like a Browning. Its internal workings were likely completely overhauled.
"I've added a spiritual energy absorption function to this pistol, and also enhanced its material ductility, heat resistance, and strength in various aspects. For instance, try pressing that thing for changing the magazine," Qi Tian urged Lin Xiao to press it, his demeanor becoming animated as he spoke of his creations.
Lin Xiao didn't rush to press it, instead looking at Qi Tian warily.
"Ah, it's fine. Pressing it will make the pistol transform," Qi Tian, understanding Lin Xiao's apprehension, immediately clarified.
"Alright."
As Lin Xiao pressed the button, the pistol began to change and expand. In just two seconds, it transformed into an anti-materiel sniper rifle in his hands.
"I've pushed the material properties to their absolute limit, while also incorporating some lightweight design and a new energy source. Under normal circumstances, it can fire about a hundred rounds a day using the spiritual energy it absorbs. Its power should be about thirty percent greater than a standard .50 caliber round. I've also used shock absorption methods to neutralize about eighty percent of the recoil."
Qi Tian said this with a hint of disappointment. "It's a pity that when I made this, my skill wasn't yet perfected, and I could only achieve this much. Otherwise, with my current abilities, there would be no limit to the ammunition, and recoil could be reduced by over ninety percent."
"Impressive..."
Lin Xiao looked at the anti-materiel sniper rifle in his hands. He could now hold this weapon with one hand while maintaining accuracy.
"Oh, and to make it so even a blind person could hit a target with this thing, I've also installed a super-aiming system. Once locked on, even if the target uses cover, the bullet will find a way to curve and strike the target."
