Chapter 10: Refining Instruments (I)
The materials swirling in the air began to flutter with Hekasius's thoughts, and the slightly larger amethyst detached from it and flew straight into the golden flames.
The moment the two touched, the crystal was like gasoline meeting fire, and in the blink of an eye, it was ignited by the tiny golden flame, wrapped in layers of flames.
But Qin Nian observed carefully beside him, and immediately found that the flame did not make the entire crystal burn, but seemed to be diluted, turning into a thin film, tightly enveloping the surface of the crystal.
And at this time, the flame on the surface of the crystal can be clearly seen to be much lighter than the color of the flame at the beginning. The rich gold turned into pale gold, and between the virtual and the real, you could even clearly see the scene inside.
Qin Nian secretly knew in his heart, it seemed that it should not be easy for Hekaxiu to summon this terrifying flame at the moment, so that he could summon as little as possible.
As the flames burned, the originally hard amethyst softened little by little, and finally melted into a mass of purple paste-like liquid like jelly.
The small pieces of platinum that were floating around them also began to fall into the flames one after another.
The few inputs disappeared in an instant, leaving only the small silver dots of light like corn floating and sinking, melting into the purple little by little. The other part, like the crystal, is melted into a liquid state, wrapped in layers of purple liquid, but it is distinct, and the well water does not interfere with the river water.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Qin Nian felt that with the integration of silver points of light, the color of the crystal became more and more profound.
Something magical seems to be happening. This made Qin Nian's attention more and more attracted little by little, and he didn't notice the gradually worsening tiredness in his mind at all.
As the flames forged, the silver stars slowly disappeared. The two liquids, one silver and one purple, seemed to have life, and began to solidify between surging with each other.
With purple as the board and silver as the pen, the dragon and phoenix dance between the wanderings, like a master's painting, engrave the mysterious and obscure rune marks of the debut little by little.
As the engraving progresses, the imprint becomes more and more complex and cumbersome.
Qin Nian gradually became distracted, as if he saw a starry sky in front of him, and a stream of spiritual light crossed through his mind, like a meteor, like a flash.
He felt that those things seemed to be important, and subconsciously tried desperately to grasp something, but in vain he let his mind be attracted and gradually sank......
"Wake up!"
Hekaxiu's explosion suddenly sounded in Qin Nian's mind.
Qin Nian was excited, and suddenly came to his senses. His eyes were bloodshot, his face was pale, and even his head was tingling.
Qin Nian hurriedly turned his head, no longer daring to continue staring at the flames. A little frightened, he asked, "Hekasio, what happened just now?" Why do I feel like I'm going to be sucked in? ”
Hekaxiu thought in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "It was my negligence, I think it should be because your current spiritual power has increased significantly, and when you look at the refining weapon, you can barely feel the subtle changes in the rules." ”
Seeing that Qin Nian still had an inexplicable expression, Hekaxiu had to continue to explain in detail: "Rules are actually the core of refining weapons, refining a way, paying attention to integrating the power of rules into artifacts by forging inscriptions, etc., without the power of rules, whether it is an elixir divine weapon or a magic prop, it will lose the power to turn decay into magic." ”
Hearing this, Qin Nian held his chin in contemplation, and said slowly: "I roughly understand, what inscription you are talking about is actually equivalent to the wiring in the electrical appliance, and the power of rules is equal to the current, and the combination of the two can make the electrical appliance work?" ”
Hekasius was slightly stunned after hearing this, and couldn't help but smile.
It was the first time he had heard someone explain the way of refining weapons in this way, but to the people of this world, it was surprisingly easy to understand.
Nodding, Hekasius chuckled and said, "That's right. But just because you can feel the rules doesn't mean you can understand them. Strength, refinement, soul, law, and life, the five major cultivation systems, the knowledge rules of each system can be called mysterious. When you don't have a certain foundation, you rashly try to explore the profound part directly. It will have a great drain on the mind, and if you don't pay attention, it will cause great damage to your mental power. ”
Qin Nian's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he said, "This thing is so dangerous? Then why didn't you remind me before? ”
He had heard Hekasius say that the human soul is composed of spiritual power and soul power, which means that if you see too much of this thing, it will hurt the soul. Something goes wrong with the soul, and whoever is there will be some nervousness.
Hekaxiu looked at Qin Nian's nervous appearance, pondered for a moment, and said seriously:
"I forgot ......"
Qin Nian suddenly felt a mouthful of old blood gushing out of his chest, and he didn't know whether to spray it or not.
Seeing Qin Nian's anxious state, Hekaxiu hurriedly explained, "But don't worry, it's not as serious as you think." Rashly watching and learning advanced refining knowledge, although it will consume mental power, it usually does not hurt the fundamentals. In severe cases, it is generally a coma for two or three days at most. You haven't been stuck for long, and it's okay to get some sleep. ”
Hearing Hekaxiu's explanation, Qin Nian breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there is no big problem, otherwise it would be too much to gain more than it will lose if it looks at the refining weapon once and leaves some sequelae.
It's just that Qin Nian didn't know that if he let many refiners and alchemists in the middle plane know what he was thinking at the moment, there would definitely be people who would line up to beat this boy who got a big bargain and was still well-behaved.
In addition to self-exploration, the most effective way to cultivate the Dao is to watch the refining process of others.
First, there is no danger and no psychological pressure, and the second is that the authorities are confused and bystanders are clear, and the stones of other mountains can be used to attack jade. The more advanced the refining process, the greater the mental consumption and the more benefits will be gained. It's a big deal to be in a coma for a few days. This kind of opportunity is hard to come by.
However, when refining items, cultivators always find the quietest place possible to refine them. Unless they have absolute confidence in the things they refine, or they are extremely close to people, such as the master-apprentice inheritance, not many people dare to rashly let others observe the alchemy refining tool.
Refining failure is a small matter, once it is counterattacked and fails to resist, the ghost knows what will happen. From ancient times to the present, countless Dao refining predecessors, who have been dead or crippled, have confirmed the danger of this kind of thing with bloody experience.
And what Qin Nian watched this time was a refining process without the help of refining, and the grade of the things refined was not low. Although refining can greatly stabilize the refining process and improve the success rate, it will also seriously affect the clarity of observation. This kind of high-definition and uncensored on-site teaching can be called an opportunity for every refining cultivator.
It's a pity that the only audience for this wonderful refining is Qin Nian, who doesn't know anything about refining knowledge, which makes people sigh and throw their eyes to the blind.
