the width of two basketball courts, with a ceiling soaring over ten meters high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the center of the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stood a massive dark red forging

taken their positions at five corners of the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They began checking the status of the arrays and materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Shuang stood before the workbench,

grave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Mo, forging a taboo-class exclusive weapon is no small matter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even with me and these five unworthy disciples working together, success is by no means guaranteed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Lin Mo nodded seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I understand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just do your best, Master Mo.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Qianjun continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Before we ignite the furnace, I must explain the entire process to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So you’re mentally prepared.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo listened attentively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, he didn’t fully understand the forging system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Qianjun spoke slowly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Phase one: Melting and Reshaping.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We will place the Divine Casting Stone you brought back, along with the legendary exclusive weapon you’ve chosen as the base, into the Starfire Furnace.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Using the earth vein flame, we will completely melt them, purify impurities, and infuse the energy of the Divine Casting Stone into the weapon’s embryo.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If there’s the slightest misstep, the materials will be ruined on the spot.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, Mo Qianjun paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But don’t worry—with me here, the chance of failure in phase one is very low.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Qianjun continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Phase two is the most critical.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This phase determines the final form and special attributes of the weapon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the words “special attributes,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Mo’s eyes flickered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Lao had mentioned this term earlier in the car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Qianjun explained:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In this phase, your control over elemental energy determines how powerful the attributes become.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you want a fire-attribute taboo-class exclusive weapon,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Simply flood the array with your own fire element while it’s active.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But if you want a dual-attribute weapon…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Qianjun’s tone grew solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The difficulty multiplies.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You must pour in as much elemental energy as possible while maintaining perfect balance between the two elements.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly half and half—not a fraction more, not a fraction less.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To be honest,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dual-attribute taboo-class exclusive weapons are exceedingly rare in Dragon Nation’s entire history.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Qianjun stared directly into Lin Mo’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So think carefully.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Which attribute
