Chapter 39: Refining (updated to inform Approachable 2014)
One hand controls the thunder mana, the other hand controls the fire mana, and uses spiritual power to guide, controlling the power of the heaven and earth elements to slowly dip into the war knife in his hand. When the Heaven and Earth Elemental touched the surface of the sword, Hadley's spiritual power clearly felt that the elemental like a turbulent wave was like hitting a huge reef, and the two sides did not give in to each other.
Of course, there was no situation where he imagined that the power of the elements of heaven and earth could easily be immersed in the battle sword.
However, this situation is many times better than it used to be without the help of elemental beads.
In the past, when the elemental power of heaven and earth encountered the war sword, it felt like a drizzle in the sky, falling on the hard stone slab, and it couldn't make a sound. Even if it rains for several years, the hard stone slab will not be damaged in the slightest.
But now it is different, although for a while, the reef cannot be smashed, but there is a feeling that the sharp corners of the reef will soon be smoothed under the surging power of the heaven and earth elements.
And this effect is what Hadley wants.
The current Hadley, of course, would not have the luxury of wanting that the power of the elements of heaven and earth could really be immersed in the war knife and change the material of the war knife.
If you want to immerse yourself in the sword and change the material of the sword, that is the Holy Realm or only when you reach the god level, you can do it.
Now, it's a matter of smoothing out or cleaning out the 'impurities' that are not fully fused or cannot be fused in the materials of the swords that are invisible to the naked eye.
Let the several materials used to make the sword merge more, and it can withstand more and stronger fighting spirit. From being able to use it for a level 7 warrior, it is enough for a level 8 warrior to use it.
In addition to improving the quality of the sword, Hadley is now familiar with this refining method and finds the best way to do it.
Only by raising the quality of the sword to the highest level, the next step is to really use all your strength to improve the quality of that long stick.
The long stick is one of the main weapons that Hadley chooses to improve his strength.
The name, Hadley has already thought of it.
Because its main material is black black crystal to increase its hardness, and supplemented by Mithril to increase its toughness, from the color of the material, it belongs to black and white. Hadley called it a combination of light and darkness. Thinking of the yin and yang in the previous life, among the four rules of this world, there are two major rules of life and death.
After careful consideration, he named it the 'Life and Death Stick'. It also means that as long as someone forces him to take out this stick, it is equivalent to a life-and-death battle, and it can also be said that as soon as this stick comes out, it is to determine the life and death of the other party.
Now because of Hadley's own strength, the 'life and death stick' has only increased to 1,200 catties now, and with the improvement of his strength in the future, the weight of the life and death stick will become heavier and heavier, until the weight reaches 10,000 catties without increasing the length and diameter of the life and death stick.
And a weapon weighing 10,000 catties, it can be said that not only is it extremely rare in the Holy Domain, but even a god-level powerhouse rarely refines such a heavy weapon.
Because the weapons of the Sanctuary warriors can withstand all their bursts of power, and they don't have to pursue weight in weapons. As long as the quality can withstand the attacks of other sanctuaries and not be damaged, it is fine. After all, even if it is a weapon of tens of thousands of catties, it is really nothing compared to the attack of hundreds of thousands of catties in the hands of a powerhouse in the Holy Domain.
The more precious materials are integrated, the higher the cost, but it can't improve the attack power of the Sanctuary warriors, so few people will refine super heavy weapons.
As for god-level powerhouses, especially lower-level gods, they cultivate artifacts, and the larger and heavier the weapon, the higher the difficulty of becoming an artifact. The more time spent on it is also more.
However, since Hadley had successfully tried to combine the power of the elements from the beginning, at the previous rate, the cultivation time would be much less than normal. Not to mention that now, with the help of elemental beads, its time will be reduced countless times. Others need 10,000 years, but he only needs about 100 years at most. And it will be the strongest weapon in the same level except for the godhead weapon.
Think about it in the original book, when Beirut was a godhead, he could use his godhead weapon stick to smash the projection of the main god's will, and his god doppelganger went to hell, using the stick that was still a godhead weapon at the time, he could injure the Pollin patriarch, one of the eight major families with the main artifact, with one move.
In addition to Beirut, which is not weaker than the Dzogchen god clone, there should also be the weight and quality of the long stick that play a big role. After all, it is impossible for the Lord God to use the Lord God Messenger for countless years of cultivation like the one they themselves use. And Beirut's godhead stick, but he has at least hundreds of thousands of years of weapons. Later, whether it was Lin Lei or Beibei, one of the attack weapons was just to get his godhead dagger, and the other was just a slender sword.
Although Hadley really wanted to get a godhead weapon, he also knew that it was impossible for Beirut to take care of him as well as Lin Lei and Beibei. After all, Lin Lei is a high-ranking god, and Beirut helped Lin Lei refine the slender sword, which is still on the premise of cultivating Lin Lei as the main god.
Therefore, heavy weapons, Hadley can only rely on himself to refine.
The battles between the god levels are basically long weapons, heavy weapons, and few people use short swords and short swords, just like the warriors who have returned to the holy realm under the god-level powerhouse, they all pursue power, even if it is the fusion of mysteries, they are also pursuing power.
As he pondered, Hadley used his spiritual power to guide the power of the elements of heaven and earth to attack the sword again and again.
After about two hours, Hadley felt the different results caused by the two elemental powers of heaven and earth.
The power of the fire elemental is like melting the impurities in the peripheral materials of the war knife little by little, so that it is slowly squeezed out of the war knife, and the battle knife material itself, where it was not completely fused, began to fuse more closely little by little.
The power of the thunder element is another effect. The impurities in the material of the war knife were torn apart by its thunder element, forming even finer impurity points, which were repelled little by little from the cracks formed by the cracks that were not fused together from the beginning, but the original cracks not only did not shrink, but there was a feeling of being stretched.
Hadley knew that if he was allowed to go under these circumstances, the knife, although it looked on the surface, would be more rounded and perfect. But as soon as it is hit by a huge force, it will be cut into two, or one of them will be smashed into pieces.
However, now that the cause is known, there is a remedy.
Three hours later, Hadley knew it was time for a different approach.
So I decided to stop the previous attempt. The half of the blade that will be refined by the thunder element is started with the fire element, in order to fuse the cracks that have been enlarged in it after being refined by the fire element.
As for the other half of the blade that began to be refined by the fire element, it no longer uses the thunder elemental to refine. Because after the fire element refine, the cracks in the outer material of the blade have basically been fused, and then it is simple to crush the impurities in the blade, but there is no way to find a way to repel them. If you use the thunder element to refine it, it will only turn more cracks inside the current blade.
Sure enough, after the refining of the fire element, the crack that had been expanded by the thunder element before became smaller and smaller, reaching a state of complete fusion.
Hadley knew how to refine the stick of life and death next.
Using spiritual power to guide the power of the elements of heaven and earth, and once again sensing the sword that had been refined, Hadley understood that now this war knife is no longer suitable for fighting, because after the uneven refining of the power of the elements of heaven and earth, the material of the entire blade is basically two. It's as if one part has a density of 5 and the other part has a density of 10, and although they are now connected, they will break into two parts if they are impacted by a certain force.
Withdrawing from meditation, Hadley casually tossed his sword aside. From then on, this war knife was really only a 'prop' when the martial arts were honed on the spot.
Although there are some regrets, it is not a loss to be able to successfully test and find a way to improve the quality of life and death sticks.
It's just a pity that the black black crystal is integrated into the sword. You must know that the most important and most precious Mithril has all been integrated into the Life and Death Stick, and the other black black crystal, except for a small amount that has been refined into this battle knife, the others have all been integrated into the Life and Death Stick.
It can be said that the stick of life and death is Hadley's best weapon at the moment. It's just that now the physical strength is limited, and you can only use the life and death stick to exercise your strength, and you can't use it to fight. However, it will not be long before the physical strength reaches the strength of a level 4 warrior, and the fighting spirit breaks through to a level 6 warrior, and he exerts his full strength, and he also has the strength of 3,000 catties, and then uses the life and death stick, even if it is just a simple smash, a stick down, at least 4 or 5 thousand catties of attacks.
Even if he encounters a level 7 warrior, the opponent has more than 20,000 catties of strength with all his strength. His own body, fighting spirit, and magical attacks can all be fought against it. Especially now that I have the Elemental Bead, I no longer have to dare to refine level 6 mana like before. In the past, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to perfectly control the power of the level 5 combination element. Now with the Elemental Bead, not to mention the level 5, it is even the level 6 combination of elemental power, which can easily reach the limit of 9 times.
The only downside is that the Elemental Orb does not increase mental power. In terms of spiritual power, you still have to rely on your own efforts to condense, and only by condensing the level 6 spiritual power to the liquefied state can you dare to break through to level 7.
However, according to the battle knife test with a trace of black black crystal material, this life and death stick that incorporates a large amount of black black crystal and a small amount of Mithril will take at least half a year or so to quench it with the power of the elements.
I believe that after more than half a year, my physical strength will also be level 4 strength, and my fighting spirit will also reach level 6, plus magic refining will reach level 6.
At that time, the comprehensive combat power reached level 7, that is, he entered the outer periphery of the Warcraft Mountain Range to start the trial.
Moreover, Xiaojin's strength will be further improved.
With the help of elemental beads, I believe that Xiao Jin can also reach level 6 strength, and its speed will reach ordinary level 7 Warcraft.
After all, according to Xiao Jin, his parents, who were able to fight with a level 8 fire dragon and also snatch back a small tree, knew that their strength should be level 8. His parents are both level 8 demonic beasts, and that Xiaojin is also a minor level 8 demonic beast.
