The blade embryo gradually took shape, thin yet sharp, narrow and slightly curved, looking immensely impactful. Although not yet sharpened or polished, one could already sense its ferocity.
The white-haired Celestial dipped the hot blade embryo into the nearby pool, instantly triggering steam to fill the cavern once more.
When the blade embryo was lifted from the pool, a strange scene unfolded.
The blade embryo seemed to come to life, the hammer marks on it automatically smoothing out. The once-rough blade quickly became as shiny as a mirror, except the blood-red patterns branded into it grew even more vivid.
Above the blade edge, a streak of bloody light, like a bead of blood, flowed along the blade's edge. Wherever the bloody light passed, the previously edgeless blade embryo naturally developed an edge, its chilling gleam downright spine-tingling.
"Has this sword come alive?" Lin Shen stared, dumbfounded, having never seen sword forging like this before.
