After lunch, Mu Xiao and Mu Ziyu reported to a side hall of the Casting Hall as Senior Brother Mu Ziping said. Later, he was told that he first learned about refining magic weapons and pills from the two mentors, Mu Hongkang and Mu Wenmiao, respectively, before he could choose to become an alchemist or refiner.

"So it's so troublesome!" Mu Ziyu complained to Mu Xiao a little impatiently.

"It's actually best to know more about it before making a choice. Mu Xiao felt that it was so good, so he comforted Mu Ziyu and said.

"It doesn't matter if he refines the weapon or the alchemy, I don't have much interest, I just want to get through the past few years quickly, and then go to the business!" Mu Ziyu glanced at the bamboo slip in his hand, and said as he pulled Mu Xiao towards a building on the west side of the Casting Hall.

Listening to Mu Ziyu's three words without leaving his dream of making money, Mu Xiao shook his head with a smile, and was silent for a while. In fact, before coming to the Casting Hall, my father also told himself that if he did not want to come to the Casting Hall, he could also choose to do some other things, such as learning some life skills, such as eating, building, logging, etc., the advantages of these skills are that they are easy to learn, have a wide range of uses, and are easy to make a living. However, Mu Xiao hesitated for a while, and still chose to come here, perhaps because he thought that his eldest brother Mu Ze and Ling Xi had become cultivators of spiritual energy, and they would learn things related to cultivation by themselves, and maybe they would be able to help them in the future. In fact, on the other hand, Mu Xiao was also a little unwilling to break away from cultivation in this way, whether it was refining weapons or alchemy, they were all closely related to the cultivation of aura, at least he could understand some knowledge related to cultivation, and when he met Brother Mu Ze and Sister Lingxi in the future, there were also some common topics, otherwise he and them would really become people from two worlds.

In the first study class, Mu Xiao waited in the hall with thirty or forty other young men and women in the bamboo slip. After a while, a middle-aged man in a dark gray robe walked in, holding a two-foot square wooden box in his hand, and everyone stood up straight. I saw him put the box on the table and said loudly: "Hello everyone, my name is Mu Hongkang! Everyone saluted respectfully.

I saw that Tutor Mu Hongkang waved his hand, nodded slightly, and said, "There are not so many rules in the cultivation hall here, everyone can sit down at will." With joy on their faces, they relaxed and sat cross-legged on the ground.

Everyone sat down, only to see the tutor take out some materials from a delicate wooden box and place them on the table in turn, these materials are all wood attribute materials, and some faintly have wood attribute aura fluctuations, and everyone was excited for a while, and they all wanted to come forward to take a look.

Mu Hongkang nodded slightly, smiled, and then continued: "Let me first introduce you to the refining materials, our Mu Dan clan has a wood attribute aura from the innate nature, and the magic weapons used by the cultivators of our clan will also add wood attribute materials. Magic weapons made of wood attribute materials can allow cultivators to better control the aura, and some materials can also store a large amount of aura, so that the cultivator can exert great power when the aura is inexhaustible when fighting. Therefore, the quality of the wood attribute materials added during refining directly determines the level of the refining artifact......"

The people below listened very carefully, and from time to time they made a sound of discussion, and at the end, a crisp voice sounded: "Master Hongkang, what are the factors that depend on the quality of a magic weapon in addition to the spiritual energy materials added?"

Everyone was shocked, and when they looked closely, they saw that it was a girl who asked the question, with black hair up to her neck, a pair of big moving eyes under her bangs, and a handsome girl's face, which was also very cute.

But he only heard Mentor Mu Hongkang laugh and said, "Good question, a high-grade magic weapon, in addition to adding high-quality wood attribute aura crystals, also requires superb refining skills, usually a grandmaster-level refiner." Speaking of this, Mentor Mu Hongkang seemed to pause intentionally and continued, "Of course, some magic weapons, when casting, can also be inlaid with some alien beast crystal nuclei, if you are fortunate enough to inlay the crystal nucleus contains a trace of alien beast divine consciousness, in the process of using the magic weapon, it is activated, and the magic weapon has spirituality and infinite power. But this kind of situation can only be encountered but not striking, and you can slowly understand it when you have reached a certain level of refining. ”

Mu Xiao thought to himself, he didn't expect the refining weapon to be so magical, he looked around, and saw that everyone was also fascinated, and suddenly heard the voice of Mu Hongkang's mentor again. "The road of refining weapons is really very difficult and boring, many people have not achieved anything in their lives, and there are many people who give up halfway, so everyone must also weigh it and make a good choice. ”

Mentor Mu Hongkang's words were like a basin of cold water, waking up the children who were still obsessed with refining supreme magic weapons. I only heard him smile, as if he was accustomed to the reactions of these children in front of him, picked up a piece of material, and said: "This is Alder Crystal, which is a low-level wood attribute material, containing less spiritual energy, it is a common material for making primary magic weapons, it is not very powerful, and the advantage is that it is relatively easy to obtain, relatively cheap, and can be used by cultivators who cultivate the first layer of the Wood Profound Qi Determination." ”

The group of people below seemed to have lost most of their interest, and they were not listening as intently as Fang Cai, and Mentor Mu Hongkang was not angry when he saw this, but a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and said: "Although it is not easy to refine high-grade magic weapons, as a refiner, if you can have the insight to identify refining materials, coupled with good luck, and obtain some high-quality magic weapon materials, you will also gain immensely." ”

"What's the catch, can I make money?" Mu Ziyu raised his eyebrows and blurted out. Immediately, the surrounding crowd burst into laughter, and the girl who asked the question just now also looked over here, and couldn't help but smile on her face.

Seeing the reactions of the people around him, Mu Ziyu felt that he was a little out of shape, but he recovered in an instant, snorted lightly in his mouth, and said to Mu Xiao: "What's so funny, these people are really frogs at the bottom of the well, when they leave Mudan City one day and go to Shengyuan City on the Cangyuan to have a look, they will know what the concept of the gap between the rich and the poor is." ”

Mu Xiao also smiled and nodded, did not speak, looked at Mu Hongkang Mentor on the stage, originally thought that he was going to criticize Mu Ziyu's words just now, but unexpectedly, seeing that he only frowned slightly, and did not react, he continued to introduce several other types of materials: "This is Bauhinia Crystal, which is an intermediate material, which is relatively rare, can store wood attribute aura, is a better material for making magic weapons, can store aura, and can also be used as a high-grade wooden tablet for storage records." ”

"This is Aoki Jingyuan, Mentor Hongkang carefully picked up a palm-sized piece of material faintly glowing with cyan light, and continued, Aoki Jingyuan is relatively rare, it is extracted from the Xuanqing wood in the depths of the Mudan jungle, it is very difficult to extract, it can store a large amount of spiritual energy, and the magic weapon made is extremely powerful. However, due to the fact that Aoki Crystal is very rare, it is difficult to make all of it to make magic weapons, usually mixed with Bauhinia Crystal or Alder Crystal to make magic weapons, and the process of casting magic weapons is also very difficult, and only multiple mentor-level refiners have the ability to make them. ”

In the end, Mentor Mu Hongkang took out a small box and held it up very carefully, although he couldn't see what was inside, but through the box, he could already feel the overflowing aura. When I opened it, I saw that there was a piece of material that was only the size of a fingernail and shone with a blue and white light. I only heard him say very solemnly and proudly: "This is Xuantan Jingyuan, which can be called a treasure-level wood attribute material in the Mu Dan Jungle, which is priceless, and a small piece contains a large amount of wood attribute aura, and the magic weapon made is infinitely powerful." Then he said with some regret that this small piece was obtained by accident when I went to the depths of the Mu Dan jungle with a few refining masters many years ago, and it was still very impure, if it was purer and made into an infinitely powerful magic weapon, it could become a powerful combat tool in the hands of cultivators. ”

At this time, the apprentices below were in a commotion, Mu Ziyu's eyes lit up again, and before Mu Xiao could stop it, he couldn't help but say: "Mentor, since such a material is so valuable, why don't you go and look for more, you can exchange it for a lot of money." ”

Another burst of laughter came, because seeing that Mentor Mu Hongkang didn't react to what he said, Mu Ziyu became even more bold, just staring at the small piece of Xuantan Crystal in Mentor Mu Hongkang's hand that exuded a strong aura.

I only heard Mentor Mu Hongkang laugh and said: "You are naïve, this Xuantan Crystal Yuan comes from Xuantan Wood, and Xuantan Wood only grows in the deepest part of the Mudan Jungle, where the wood attribute aura is abundant, and it can even be said that the aura is too strong, if there is no powerful cultivator to open the way, it is difficult for ordinary people to approach, not to mention that there are many strange beasts there, and most of them are strong fierce beasts, even if you are given a bunch of Xuantan Crystal Yuan, you may hold it and die in the belly of the fierce beast in the next moment." Also, no one has been able to extract this Xuantan crystal so far, and it is slowly accumulated and crystallized by natural aura, so it is very rare and can be encountered but not sought. ”

Hearing this, Mu Ziyu suddenly looked like a deflated ball, shriveled down in disappointment, and drooped his head.

"However......" Mentor Mu Hongkang's mouth raised, looked at Mu Ziyu and said, "Refiners, there are also people who specialize in collecting magic weapon materials in exchange for money, although it is not advocated, but there is nothing to criticize, but high-grade magic weapon materials are usually distributed in some very dangerous places, and there are often fierce beasts or spirit beasts guarding them, and those who are not successful in cultivation cannot obtain them, and we refiners, if we don't have a good chance, it will be even more difficult to obtain them alone." ”

"Isn't this the same as saying in vain? It seems hopeless to make money by refining weapons. Mu Ziyu muttered in a low voice.

Mu Xiao glanced at Mu Ziyu and said with a smile: "In addition to making money, it seems that you really have nothing else in your heart." ”

Tutor Mu Hongkang took out some other magic weapon materials, and talked about some principles of magic weapon casting, Mu Ziyu hung his head, and seemed to have no interest, at the end, he sighed and said to Mu Xiao: "This refining tool, whether it is material collection or learning process, is extremely difficult, and there is not much substantive use, after listening to it for so long, I only remember one in my mind." Xuantan Jingyuan', I have no impression at all, I think we should learn alchemy, on the one hand, the medicinal pill can be used by ordinary people, and the aura pill can also be exchanged for some money according to the grade, it is easy to use and practical, so it is decided!"

Mu Xiao thought for a moment, and felt that Mu Ziyu's words really made some sense, so he nodded at the moment and said, "Haven't you seen an alchemy master yet?" Don't think about it too simply, and listen to what the alchemy master said......
