Chapter Seventy-Two: Ritual Weapons

This is the four kinds of magic money with different denominations commonly used in the cultivation realm, one Pure Gold Tongbao = Ten Lianyin Tongbao = 100 Red Copper Tongbao = 1,000 Xuantie Tongbao = 10,000 taels of gold.

The King of Beihai naturally knew about the currency system of the Xiuzhen Realm, so when Bai Qi set off, he prepared a thousand taels of gold for him.

In Qianlong City, the worldly gold and silver, and the magic money of the cultivation realm are all in circulation, and after Bai Qi arrived in Qianlong City, he exchanged the hundreds of taels of gold in his hand for a few red copper magic coins and dozens of Xuantie magic coins.

There are few real magic weapons for sale in Qianlong City, and the low-level pills sold in some shops, and the low-level exercises are also expensive, most of them are priced in worldly gold and silver, few are priced in magic money, and there are few that are priced more than ten Xuantie magic coins, so Bai Qi didn't feel how poor he was.

When he walked around this inner gate market town, he suddenly felt that he was poor and called Hanako.

Magical weapons that can't be seen in Qianlong City at all can be found everywhere in the shops of Qinglong Town, but the price is ......

Even the cheapest low-level magic weapon can easily cost thousands of Xuantie magic money.

For this price, Bai Qi was not surprised.

Take the most common red steel flying sword as an example, due to the heavy black iron, a three-foot long red steel flying sword weighs thirty or forty catties, generally speaking, the red copper content in the red steel is about one into five, that is to say, the price of red steel is 2.5 times that of the black iron, just the basic material, a Xuangang flying sword is as high as nearly a thousand Xuan Iron money.

For a ritual artifact, the price of the base material is only a small part of its total price.

In addition to the basic materials, in order to refine a magic weapon, it is also necessary to engrave a magic circle in the body of the instrument, and the materials for the inscription of the magic circle have much higher requirements for mana transmission than the basic materials.

The lowest level of the inscription circle material is called the Copper Pulp. It is made of silver, red bronze. and several rare materials.

Although the demand for materials required to engrave the magic circle is not large, its unit price is dozens of times that of the basic materials. Its share of the total cost of the ritual is even higher than that of the base material.

To refine the magic circle, in addition to the basic materials and the spiritual materials that inscribe the magic circle, you also need spiritual stones to provide power.

If the basic spiritual material is the body of the magic weapon, and the pattern of the magic circle is the blood vessels of the magic weapon, then the spirit stone is the heart of the magic weapon.

There are two kinds of spirit stones, one is a natural spirit stone, and the other is a refined spirit stone.

Natural spirit stone, also known as raw stone, refers to a stone that contains a large amount of spiritual energy directly mined from the ground.

It is said that in ancient times, monks used the original stone directly.

But. The rough stone itself is an extremely rare mineral deposit, and the conditions for its formation are extremely harsh, requiring not only the earth's veins with abundant spiritual energy, but also the special stone quality that can form spiritual stones.

As the number of monks increased, the demand for spirit stones increased, and the spirit stones in this world gradually dried up.

After many efforts, the monks finally found a way to solve the problem of spirit stones, that is, the reuse of ethereal spirit stones that have been drained of spiritual energy.

The monks have refined the ethereal stones. Let it have the effect of repeated charging, and wrap it with red steel, and engrave the spirit gathering circle on the red steel to increase the charging speed of the spirit stone. The result was the formation of the spirit stones that are now circulating in the hands of the monks.

In fact, the current spirit stone is already a simple magic weapon.

Due to its different aura content, the rough stone is divided into upper, middle and lower grades. Spirit stones refined from different quality raw stones have different abilities to store spiritual energy and output spiritual energy. Therefore, it is also divided into upper, middle and lower grades.

The worst low-grade spirit stone is worth as much as the Adamantine Money.

A low-grade flying sword requires at least one low-grade spirit stone as an energy source. This is the cost of another thousand Xuantie magic money.

Therefore, even if a lowest-grade flying sword doesn't earn a penny, its cost is nearly three thousand Xuantie law.

After turning two shops, Bai Qi gave up his plan to go shopping and went straight to the inner gate hall in the north of the market town.

The inner gate of the main hall is a building complex that sits in the north and faces south, outside the main entrance of the main hall, there is a square with a prescription circle of dozens of zhang, the twelve Yuan Dan elders take the new disciples back to the mountain gate on the same day, it is the flying magic weapon that lands here.

The entire Qinglong Town is built around this bluestone paved square.

Bai Qi came to the door of the main hall, two monks in battle armor stood on both sides of the gate, Bai Qi took out his identity token, the two nodded, and motioned for him to go in by himself.

There are several most important buildings distributed on the central axis of the inner gate hall from south to north, and facing this gate is a large hall that looks very wide, and there is a plaque with the words "Gong Value Palace" hanging at the entrance of the main hall.

When Su Yunhe took Bai Qi and the two of them into the main hall of the inner deacon, he had given the two of them a general introduction to the buildings here.

This hall of merit is the place where the deacon's main hall handles daily affairs, such as the deacons under the door to receive tasks and complete tasks, and some daily trivial matters such as the exchange of sect merits are handled here.

On both sides of the Gong Value Hall, there are two three-story attics, and the attic on the left is the place where Bai Qi had been to the place that was responsible for the distribution of the Spirit Mansion.

The attic on the right is the place where the low-level elixir masters, alchemists, refiners, and talismans under the sect are managed.

For example, Bai Qi himself doesn't plan to take care of the Lingtian in front of the door, so he can hire an elixir master from here to be in charge, and he only needs to hand over the sub-token of his Immortal Mansion to the other party, and the other party can open the outermost defensive circle of the Immortal Mansion and take care of the Lingtian, and he can't enter the Immortal Mansion, so it won't pose a threat to the safety of the master.

This kind of lowest-level elixir master who takes care of Lingtian is generally served by outer disciples, and it is quite cheap to hire, and he only needs to pay thirty percent of Lingtian's harvest.

The status of formal alchemists, refiners, and talismans is much higher, and if you want to work these people, you can only leave the task information and remuneration in this hall, and then wait for which master is free and satisfied with the conditions you give, and then take the task.

Behind the Gongzhi Hall is a three-story tall building "Elders' Hall", which is the office of the elders of the Inner Gate Deacon Hall, and the Inner Gate Deacon Elders are far higher than the Outer Gate Senior Deacons, all of whom are served by Elder Yuandan.

The first floor of the Hall of Elders is where the senior deacons under the elders work, the second floor is where the ordinary elders work, and the third floor is where the three Great Elders.

Most of the people who will come to serve as deacons and elders are people who have already advanced and have no hope of advancement, and they are willing to do these things that delay their cultivation.

Despite this, the elders and the great elders do not come to this deacon hall on weekdays, and only come to preside over major events or the monthly elders' meeting, and they all practice in their respective caves on weekdays. (To be continued......)
