Long Yan wasn't quite sure if it was some protective mechanism or something else, but while he had a strong interest in the blacksmith's craft, he knew that his knowledge was only very basic. It was impossible for him to take apart the components of the Rainstorm Pear Flower Needle. However, Long Yan deduced that the interlayer within the Iron Flower definitely contained molten iron. Only after the molten iron completely cooled could this hidden weapon achieve its seamless unity.
As for why it possessed such destructive power, it might have been due to something inside that released high temperatures, causing the entire mechanism to accelerate its operation and trigger the mechanisms within. Of course, this was merely Long Yan's guess, and it was only after a complete analysis of the destroyed Rainstorm Pear Flower Needle that he reached this conclusion.
