Chapter 289 -45: Baking Furnace Forging Diamond_2
Swipe—
His steel knife ignited, enveloped in a bundle of crimson flames.
Li Fei raised his arm to block the slash, and the fiery force collided with his Vajra Force.
Hao Yi’s steel knife couldn’t withstand such a powerful collision of forces and instantly shattered into many pieces, but the fire force lingering on the blade didn’t disperse and grazed Li Fei’s arm in the shape of a blade.
Hao Yi sheathed his knife, with only a handle left in his hands.
Li Fei stood still, his right arm’s sleeve cut open with a new charred slash mark on his skin.
That strike from Hao Yi had just pierced through his Vajra Force!
Most importantly, Hao Yi had not activated any particularly strong power; he still remained within the realm of Qi Change Stage.
“This…”
Li Fei savored the force of the strike just then:
Vibration, spiral, cutting, piercing…
In just an instant, the force had included over a dozen variations!
“This move I call it Armor-breaking Style, specially designed to break through armor and Protective Force.”
Hao Yi said, “Your Vajra Force and my force characteristics are different, sharper, so it’s more suitable for armor-piercing.”
Next, Li Fei began to learn the Armor-breaking Style from Hao Yi.
Armor-breaking Style required an extremely high level of control over one’s force, and the variations weren’t fixed—it varied with the individual, needing adjustments based on the different Protective Forces of the opponent.
It wasn’t simply a matter of learning it.
Fortunately, since Li Fei had achieved a breakthrough by ‘Breaking Heart Barrier’, his Mind Power was sufficiently strong; his learning progress was quite fast, which pleasantly surprised Hao Yi.
After teaching for more than two hours, Hao Yi voluntarily stopped:
“At this stage, you are already in the Qi Change Middle Stage. To break through to the Qi Change Late Stage, you need both a sufficiently refined force and a robust Mind Power. Only then can you externalize your force, mimicking shapes. According to my assessment, your Mind Power is sufficient now, you only lack the refinement of your force, which can actually be fudged.”
“Fudged?”
Li Fei looked at Hao Yi curiously.
His teacher, always known for his integrity, typically disdained underhanded methods, and it was unexpected that he would be teaching Li Fei how to take shortcuts.
“The force I refine is the Heaven and Earth Furnace Force, which happens to be well-suited for forging your Vajra Force.”
Hao Yi said.
The Heaven and Earth Furnace Force is a higher-grade force, which he had employed once during a fight with Yu Hu (see Volume 1, Chapter 110).
‘Heaven and Earth as the furnace, Creation as the artificer,’ this is the uniqueness of the Heaven and Earth Furnace Force, capable of forging all things, separating the wheat from the chaff.
Had it not been for Li Fei’s sufficient Mind Power and the purity of his achieved Vajra Force, Hao Yi wouldn’t have chosen to help Li Fei cut corners with this method.
Refining your own force to make it increasingly condensed is in itself a process of exercising Mind Power and control, something that shouldn’t be omitted.
But Li Fei’s Mind Power was enough, and the Vajra Force was pure. The breakthrough was imminent for him, missing only time.
So Hao Yi thought he could help Li Fei save that time.
After all, Li Fei once told him, every minute counts!
“Then I’m indeed in your debt, teacher.”
Li Fei bowed to Hao Yi.
He hadn’t expected there would be such benefits from coming back.
“Now keep your Vajra Force continuously activated.”
Hao Yi instructed.
Thus, Li Fei activated his Vajra Force again, his body glowing golden.
Hao Yi took off his black leather gloves, revealing those blood-red hands, and nonchalantly slapped toward Li Fei.
Boom—
Li Fei felt as though he was in a high-temperature furnace, his entire body wrapped in flames!
In reality, no flames appeared in the practice room, just a mass of red force enveloping Li Fei.
Under Hao Yi’s precise control, not a trace of force spilled out, the temperature in the room hardly rose, and the floor and ceiling were not melted.
Moments later, Li Fei felt his Vajra Force being ‘melted.’
Under Hao Yi’s guidance, Li Fei retracted the ‘melted’ Vajra Force back into his body and then activated new force to fill the gaps.
After continuing this for over twenty minutes, Li Fei’s body was completely filled with ‘melted’ Vajra Force.
He felt as if his body were filled with molten lava!
Hao Yi retracted his force, his face clearly showing signs of fatigue.
The Heaven and Earth Furnace Force was a high-level force, and maintaining it continuously for over twenty minutes, while keeping precise control, was much more tiring than fighting an equal-level match against a Tao Foundation Stage Martial Artist.
“Feel the changes in the force carefully, try to control it, and further condense it…”
Hao Yi continued to guide Li Fei.
Half an hour later, Li Fei’s Vajra Force had been mostly depleted, but the remaining Vajra Force was evidently more refined than before.
Next, he just needed to wait for his force to replenish. If the new force also underwent change, then this ‘forging’ would have been effective.
“For the next half month, come here daily to forge your force. Whether or not you can make a Breakthrough after half a month will depend on your Creation,” Hao Yi said.
“Yes, thank you for your efforts, Teacher,” Li Fei once again bowed to Hao Yi.
In the following days, he spent each morning learning the ‘Armor-piercing Style’ from Hao Yi, and the afternoons were spent forging his Vajra Force with the aid of the Heaven and Earth Furnace Force.
At night, in addition to cultivating the Illusion Leaf, he also practiced the ‘Wood Ghost Binding Curse’ and studied the “Vajra Seal” and “Red Sound Fire Vajra Skill,” so busy that he almost had no time to sleep.
Li Fei now wished he could split himself in two to get everything done, managing only to further cut down his sleeping time to just over three hours a day…
Fortunately, his physique was strong and his energy ample enough to bear it.
While Li Fei was busy training, Li Lei was also busy with his work.

After several days of preparation, the Inspection Bureau began to take action.
In Changheng Street, at the Chen Family mansion.
Four Inspection Bureau vans approached from a distance and stopped outside the Chen Family gates.
Captain Lu Sheng of the First Squad was the first to disembark, followed by dozens of fully armed officers who directly stormed into the Chen mansion.
“Sir, please…”
“We’re handling a case for the Inspection Bureau! Stand aside!”
The guards at the gate tried to intervene but were roughly shoved aside by the officers brought by Lu Sheng.
Faced with the barrel of a gun, the Chen Family guards didn’t dare to act rashly.
Soon, Chen Li, the butler of the Chen Family, approached Lu Sheng and asked with neither servility nor arrogance,
“Captain Lu, how may I assist you?”
“We’re here to make arrests; show him the warrant,” Lu Sheng commanded, and an Inspector beside him stepped forward, presenting a paper stamped with an official seal for Chen Li to see.
“May I ask, Captain Lu, who is it you intend to arrest?” Chen Li remained calm.
“The Chen Family is suspected of conspiracy to commit robbery and murder, illegal seizure of others’ lands, illegal detention, enslavement, among other charges. I’ve got a lot of people to take back today.”
Lu Sheng spoke to Chen Li word by word, “And that includes you, Chen Li.”
Chen Li’s complexion finally changed, “Captain Lu, you…”
“Take him away!”
Lu Sheng had no interest in wasting words and simply had two Inspectors step forward and shackle Chen Li.
Then he continued to lead his men in arresting others in the Chen mansion, eventually provoking the Chen Family guards.
These guards were all Martial Artists, including Refining Strength Martial Masters. Even unarmed, the oppressive aura they carried was strong.
As the two sides faced off, Family Head Chen Yujing hurried over.
“Lu Sheng!”
With a grim expression, Chen Yujing called Lu Sheng by name, “This is the Chen residence; aren’t you being too presumptuous?”
After the fall of the Tiger Saber Gang, although the remaining assets were taken over or cleared out by the Qingyuan City Management Company, leaving no advantage to the Chen Family, their gains in the official circles were immense.
Officials affiliated with the Tiger Saber Gang were either dead, had fled, or were arrested, leaving a large void.
Also, many officials from Gu Zhenhui’s group fell, so the Chen Family took the opportunity to broadly support and promote their own people.
Compared to before, the Chen Family’s influence in Xing City’s officialdom had at least doubled!
That’s why Chen Yujing could now loudly reprimand Lu Sheng with such confidence.
