Five hours later, night fell.

"Chaoyang New Village" next to the No. 23 Special Waste Treatment Site.

Although the name is good, Chaoyang New Village is the most dilapidated low-rent housing community in Fuge City.

Because of the proximity to the tomb of the magic weapon, the environment here is very bad, the air is perennially filled with a pungent smell, even if the main city is the blue sky and white clouds, it is also gray, in the nineteen low-rent housing communities in Fuge City, it is the lowest level, naturally, the rent is also the lowest.

No matter how low the rent is, not many people like to live next to the garbage dump, and many residential buildings are completely empty, coupled with disrepair, the façade is full of cracks, and the corridors are full of cobwebs, which is simply a ghost town.

Li Yao is a permanent resident of this "ghost town".

He likes that it is quiet enough, and it will not disturb others when repairing and renovating the magic weapon at home, and it is close to the magic weapon tomb, and the rent is cheap.

His home is a suite of more than 50 square meters, two inside and outside, the outside room eats and drinks Lazar, and the bedroom inside has been transformed into a magic weapon maintenance studio.

As soon as you enter the room, the first thing that catches your eye is hundreds of crystal brains hanging from the ceiling with ropes, like hundreds of small skulls.

Most of these crystal brains were old antiques from hundreds of years ago, and they had lost their computing power, and they were picked up by Li Yao as a collector's item—he was a crystal brain fan, and he was very interested in this magic weapon that could imitate the brain of a cultivator to calculate thousands of thoughts.

The small living room is full of physical books that are very rare in this era, from "Summary of Magic Weapon Maintenance", "Concise Course of Beginner Flying Sword Refining", "Self-cultivation of a Refiner" to "Maintenance Manual of Black Mountain Old Demon Grade Crystal Battleship", "Ninety-nine Methods of Bombing a Planet", many of which are ancient books from hundreds of years ago, gray, yellow, and rotten.

Surrounded by books and crystal brains, there is a half-old straw mat, which is Li Yao's dining table, chair and bed.

And the magic weapon maintenance studio in the back room is full of rare treasures he picked up from the garbage dump, such as flying swords with glittering cold light, talismans with dragons and snakes, and fragrant elixirs......

More magic weapons were dismantled by him into the most basic components, piled up in the corners, and turned into several miniature mountains of garbage.

At this time, Li Yao was holding a silver-white box-shaped magic weapon, his eyes were shining, like a big bad wolf who had seen a little white rabbit, and the corners of his mouth almost didn't drip a saliva.

The flying sword with black wings poked out his head behind him, like a curious fat snake.

"It turned out to be the latest generation of 'stereoscopic light curtain instrument' launched by the Thousand Illusion Sect, and the price on the market is more than 20,000! If it can be repaired, it will be sold for eight thousand, Xiao Hei, this time we are developed! Li Yao couldn't help but whistle.

The black flying sword "squeaked", and the two wings flew up and down, dancing with their hands, revealing a trace of the same "greed" taste as the master.

Li Yao's hand shook, and seven or eight strange-shaped maintenance tools appeared between his fingers, some like screwdrivers, some like small tweezers, as well as slender silver needles and crooked tools that could not be named.

"Blackie, how many seconds do you guess?"

The black flying sword "squeaked" sneered twice, and used the tip of the sword to make a "50" in the void.

"Fifty seconds? Underestimate me! ”

The eyelids closed, took a deep breath, calmed down for three seconds, and when he opened his eyes again, the greed and excitement in his eyes were gone, leaving only the coldness and overflowing confidence of Gujing Wubo.

Li Yao's hands suddenly activated, and his ten fingers turned into ten streamers, completely enveloping the silver-white magic weapon, and at first he could vaguely see the trajectory of his fingertip movements, but later he could only see a dazzling white mang, and there was a "rustling" sound in the white mang.

Half a minute later, Bai Mang shook, the "rustle" sound disappeared, and hundreds of afterimages returned to the main body one by one, Li Yao's hands were still in their original position, and they didn't even move a minute.

And the silver-white magic weapon "three-dimensional light curtain instrument" has been disassembled by him into four hundred and twenty-five components.

"Thirty-nine seconds, done!"

Li Yao cheered, squeezed his eyes proudly at the black flying sword, and studied it intently.

"Tsk, it's really worthy of the latest model of the 'Thousand Illusion Sect' refining light curtain instrument, the structure is exquisite, the balance between spiritual power is like a natural thing, the most powerful thing is this main chip, the main chip the size of a fingernail is actually engraved with more than three hundred spirit runes, pulling each other, forming more than twenty rune arrays, it is simply a work of art!"

Li Yao held a magnifying glass in his hand and carefully observed the disassembled main chip, his face was full of pilgrimage-like intoxication, and his expression became more and more solemn as he looked at it.

"That's not right...... Not only the three hundred spirit runes, this main chip seems to use crystal folding technology, which is to superimpose the three chips together, and a total of thousands of spirit runes are stored, forming hundreds of three-dimensional rune arrays, which is incredible! ”

The more he studied, the more he felt that it was broad and profound, Li Yao was completely addicted to it, forgetting the passage of time, and studying for more than three hours, but he couldn't parse even a complete rune array, but he looked dizzy and blackened in front of him.

At most, he is only at the level of a "junior magic weapon repairer", and he is too far from the level of the refining master of the "Thousand Illusion Sect".

If there is a problem with this "main chip", then he has no choice but to sell the stereoscopic light curtain instrument as a scrap.

Fortunately, after using the "Spirit Reservoir" to input a spiritual power, Li Yao found that the spiritual power of the main chip was running smoothly, the spiritual path was clear, and the rune array was stable, and there was nothing abnormal.

After careful inspection, it was found that the problem was on a lowest-level crystal tube, because the spiritual power was abnormally fluctuating, and the crystal tube was burned out.

This kind of crystal pipe is a standard part, and it is easy to replace, and Li Yao quickly found a replacement from the inventory at home.

Closing his eyes, silently recalling the disassembly process just now, a detailed structural diagram came to mind, his hands naturally activated, a gust of wind swept the clouds, and the three-dimensional light curtain instrument was reassembled!

Using the spirit reservoir to input a spiritual energy, the white shell glowed with a faint blue glow, like a whole piece of crystal clear jade, and like a living elf.

And being swept across his forehead by Lan Mang, dozens of control runes naturally appeared in the depths of Li Yao's mind.

"Light curtain device, turn on!" Li Yao thought silently in his heart, and a control rune in his mind immediately flashed.

The blue light on the light curtain instrument converged into a "hui" shaped rune, like a whirlpool, quickly rotated twice, and shot out a blue beam of light from the center of the whirlpool, condensing into a huge light curtain in mid-air, the light curtain flickered, revealing the image of a middle-aged cultivator wearing a gossip robe, delicate and lifelike.

Behind this cultivator was an even larger curtain of light, intertwined with red and green runes, numbers, and arrows, constantly beating and changing.

The middle-aged cultivator's face was expressionless, and Gu Jing said without waves: "Next, I will continue to broadcast financial news for you, and the following is a summary of the stock market - today's biggest news is undoubtedly the 'Shadowless Sword Sect' announced the latest generation of flying sword drive talisman array 'Purple Electricity' came out, it is said that after the application of 'Purple Electricity', the maximum speed of the flying sword can be increased by nine percent, the instantaneous destructive power can be increased by eleven percent, and the spiritual power consumed can be reduced by five percent, and the comprehensive performance of the flying sword has been significantly improved." ”

"Affected by this positive news, the stock price of the Shadowless Sword Sect has risen all the way, approaching the limit before ten o'clock and staying all the way to the close."

"And the entire sword cultivation sector, including the Giant Sword Sect, the Extreme North Sword Sect, and the South China Sea Sword Sect, the stock prices have also been red, and as of the close, the sword cultivation sector as a whole has risen by 5.42 percentage points."

"On the other hand, the stock prices of sects such as the 'Golden Armor Sect' that focus on defense have fallen all the way, and analysts generally believe that with the advent of new runes such as 'Purple Electricity' one after another, the flying sword technology will make a revolutionary leap, and the current mainstream battle armor simply cannot defend against the latest model of flying sword attacks, as of the close, the stock price of the Golden Armor Sect fell by more than 8%."

"The Golden Armor Sect held an impromptu press conference after the closing, and the spokesman of the Golden Armor Sect, Elder Heiyan, announced that a breakthrough has been made in the research and development of the latest generation of 'Star Strike Shield' battle armor, and the prototype will come out within the year, which will definitely be able to defend against the attack of a flying sword."

"In the grassland area in the north of the federation, the black nematode plague continues to spread, and has spread to the spirit beast breeding bases of many beast control sects, with more than 500,000 spirit beasts affected, and the rare disaster has made the stock price of the beast control sector continue to run at a low level, and the stock price of many beast control sects has fallen below the three-year low."

"Okay, let's invite the famous stock critic Tian Xingzi to comment on individual stocks for you."

“……”

Li Yao watched it for a long time and found that the picture was stable, the sound was clear, and there were no snowflakes and markings, especially the three-dimensional sense was very strong, which made people feel immersive, and it should have been repaired.

After thinking about it, he meditated again in his mind: "Switch to the entertainment channel." ”

With a flash of blue light, the middle-aged cultivators and the red and green light curtains disappeared in an instant, and were replaced by a hot stadium.

The large stadium that can accommodate 100,000 people is full, the voices are noisy, boiling in the sky, under the colorful light, 100,000 enthusiastic young men and girls raised their hands and shouted a name together:

"Lu Yinxi!"

"Lu Yinxi!"

"Lu Yinxi!"

On the three-storey main stage, the dog's teeth are staggered, standing dozens of sharp crystals, when the cheers of young boys and girls converge to the extreme, the thickest crystal suddenly bursts, a white-clothed girl with a cold face like snow, but her eyes are as hot as magma jumped out of the crystal, her waist is slung a guqin made of crystals, the slender hand swept the strings, but the sound of the golden iron horse sounded!

"If you have a dream in your heart, you have to fly arrogantly, and the other side of the galaxy is our direction! It's ours, repair! True! New! Generation! Period! ”

Like all boys and girls, Li Yao's blood began to boil.

The hot girl "Lu Yinxi" on the stage is an idol female singer who has just risen in the past two years, and as soon as she debuted, she attracted a large number of teenagers with her cold shape and energetic singing style, and the famous song "Xiuzhen 40,000 Years" swept the entire federation in just half a year, and countless teenagers embarked on the road of Xiuzhen under the inspiration of this song.

Li Yao is also her fan, but the reason is different from others, he likes Lu Yinxi because everyone has the same background.

They are all orphans.

Li Yao was born at the No. 23 Special Waste Disposal Site, and the sky has been gray and yellow for as long as he can remember.

Eating rotten meat from the garbage heap, drinking contaminated stinky water, relying on beast-like instincts and a little "secret" in the depths of memory, struggling to survive, from being bullied at the beginning to becoming the most dangerous "vulture" in the magic weapon grave more than ten years later.

If it weren't for the appearance of "Daddy", Li Yao might have been messing around in the garbage dump and becoming another "fat dragon" or "wild wolf".

But one day six years ago, a garbage boat threw my dad mixed with dozens of tons of garbage, and Li Yao moved his heart of compassion and dragged his scarred dad home.

Since then, his fate has changed completely.

Dad never talked about his origins, Li Yao only knew that he must be a very powerful magic weapon modification master, in just five years, Dad taught Li Yao tens of thousands of strange magic weapon transformation techniques, also taught him the knowledge of various basic disciplines, and also spent money for him to go to a private high school in the city, so that he integrated into the normal society.

A year ago, my father died of an old injury, leaving Li Yao with a mysterious flying sword called "Black Wing", which is said to be a strange guy who he has studied for most of his life, and there is a passage:

"Xiao Yao, Dad, I have been to dozens of worlds in my life, and I have seen tens of thousands of magic weapon modification masters and refining masters, and your talent is the highest!"

"With the hands of mere mortals, you can repair low-level magic weapons, you are really powerful."

"But talent alone is not enough! Relying on talent alone, you can only maintain low-level magic weapons, civil magic weapons! ”

"Promise my father, study hard, strive to be admitted to university, and become a cultivator! Only by becoming a cultivator will it be possible for you to go further in the cultivation of the magic weapon, and even ...... one day."

"Become a true alchemist!"

When Dad said this, his eyes were wide open, his eyes were full of light, and the scene of infinite momentum was still fresh in Li Yao's memory.

Master Alchemist...... It was one of the most respected professions in the circle of cultivators.

He didn't know if he would disappoint his father.

The Black Wing Sword silently accompanied him, listening to the girl singing like a volcano in the light curtain instrument, and the two wings were still writhing with the energetic song and dance.

After a long time, the boy's eyes brightened, and the corners of his mouth recurred into a smile full of care.

"Why do you want to do so much? Regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, just fight! ”

"Lu Yinxi can go from a little orphan girl to the hottest female singer in the Federation, why can't I go from a little garbage worm to a real refining master?"

The boy remembered a sentence he had heard a long, long time ago, far, far away:

"Dreams always have to come true?"
