"Third Order...... Smelter?" Lin Liang tilted his head to look at Huo Xing.

Looking at Lin Liang's puzzled look, Huo Xing remembered that although Lin Liang had been in the sect for some days, he also had some smelting foundations, and had successfully smelted a second-rate instrument, but in fact, Huo Xing, the level of the smelter, was not recorded in the jade slip handed over to him, so he had to explain patiently at the moment.

"Like martial artists, those alchemists and smelters also have their own class divisions. There is a jargon for the division of the realm of smelters and alchemists, called one apprentice, three masters, five masters, seven sects, eight transmissions and nine respects!"

"One apprentice, three masters, five masters, seven sects, eight transmissions and nine respects?"

"That's good!" Huo Xing said in a deep voice, "The realms of alchemists and smelters are divided into nine levels. A disciple refers to a smelter of the first and second order, although people also call them smelters, but in the strict sense of the word, they can only be regarded as smelting apprentices. ”

"The third master refers to the fact that after the smelting apprentice reaches the third order, that is, after he can smelt the high-grade elemental weapon, he can be called a smelter in the true sense. And when a smelter successfully smelts a high-grade spiritual weapon, then it means that he has reached the fifth-order smelter-master! This is the so-called one apprentice, three masters, and five masters. ”

"And the seven sects are eight and nine are respected, and the seven sects refer to the seventh-order smelting master, the eighth transmission is the eighth-order master, and the ninth is the supreme smelter, just like the emperor realm in the realm of martial artists. Judging from the records in the classics, there is a legend that only one person has reached the ninth order smelter. ”

"Who?" Lin Liang asked curiously, this kind of character should already be at the legendary level.

"Ye Yuntian!" Huo Xing slowly spit out the name solemnly.

"Ye Yuntian, I haven't heard of it. Lin Liang muttered this unfamiliar name in his mouth.

"Okay, anyway, it's enough to remember that he is a legendary smelter, the current continent, the seventh-order smelting grandmaster is already a legendary task, as far as I know, it can be said that we don't even have a sixth-order smelter in the southern region, and the northern region is mixed, it's hard to say. Huo Xing said with a smile, but it was difficult to hide the loss between his eyebrows.

"Then uncle, what level of smelter are you?" After knowing the division of the smelter's realm, Lin Liang became curious about Huo Xing's realm.

"Me?" Huo Xing thought for a moment, and then replied solemnly, "I won't tell you!"

。。。。。。

Lin Liang then remembered what Huo Xing had said before, and hurriedly asked, "Then why does becoming a third-order smelter give me a chance to defeat He Yun?

Seeing that Lin Liang still didn't understand, Huo Xing sighed and chose to continue to explain.

"Many people believe that the combat power of smelters and alchemists will be weaker than that of martial artists of the same realm. Because most of the energy of smelters and alchemists is focused on smelting and alchemy, they naturally don't pay much attention to martial arts cultivation, and their strength is naturally inferior to that of martial artists. Huo Xing's words were orderly and reasonable, and Lin Liang also nodded in agreement.

"But!" Huo Xing said as he said with a sharp turn: "Actually, this is a big mistake! This is people's thinking into a misunderstanding. Martial artists have their own fighting styles, and similarly, alchemists and smelters also have their own unique fighting styles!"

"The most striking feature of the alchemist's battle is the elixir, as well as the Danhuo! For the alchemist, the elixir is the best auxiliary means, and the Danhuo is a sharp weapon to hurt people. And for the smelters, their strength is only one thing - the smelting hammer!"

"The Smelting Hammer is the lifeblood of a smelter, and as a smelter, the highest and most proud item he refines must be his own Smelting Hammer. Just as Danhuo can not only refine Dan, but also damage to martial artists is even more terrifying, when a smelting hammer is in the hands of a smelter, the smelter's combat power can fight across levels!"

"Because when the same level of equipment encounters the melting hammer, it will instinctively resist contact with the melting hammer, so that the opponent's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced. Moreover, the power of the smelting hammer itself is higher than that of various weapons of the same level, and the high-level ones have all kinds of headache-inducing functions, of course, it also depends on the materials and smelting methods you use to refine it!"

"That's actually the case!" Lin Liang listened to Huo Xing's words dumbfounded, and couldn't help blurting out: "Isn't that invincible in the world if I hold a smelting hammer?"

"Stupid!" Huo Xing blew his beard angrily and scolded glaringly: "Stinky boy, what do you want!

Huo Xing looked out the window, recalling that he was just a carefree little smelting apprentice, sighed, and said slowly: "In the battle after two years, if you can successfully become a third-order smelter, then you will be able to have a smelting hammer of your own, and then you and He Yun will be qualified to fight." ”

"But don't I have a smelting hammer now?" Lin Liang still didn't understand what Huo Xing meant, in his opinion, how could he cross so many realms with just one hammer, compared to these, Lin Liang, who had lived alone for so many years, believed in his own strength more.

Huo Xing only glanced at Lin Liang and knew his inner thoughts, and immediately said helplessly: "The smelting hammer I am talking about is not the kind of general hammer that has no combat power hanging in your stone room, the real smelting hammer that can fight can only be used by the smelter who has refined it!"

"The first-order and second-order smelters use those so-called general-purpose hammers, and only after becoming a third-order smelter can you start smelting your own exclusive smelting hammer, and to reach the third-order smelter, you must first have the cultivation of the spirit vein realm! And the role of the smelting hammer is far more than just fighting!"

Speaking of this, Huo Xing paused, and then spit out four words in Lin Liang's expectant gaze, "Temper the spiritual vein!"

Walking alone on the way back to the hut, Lin Liang's mind still echoed Huo Xing's admonition to him: "Leaving the sect may not be a good thing, leaving the sect you can rely on is really only yourself, remember that your battle in two years is a battle of life and death, between life and death, you are still too inexperienced, what you need is to fight! In all kinds of battles, in all kinds of life and death, hone your will and combat experience!"

"Yes, Uncle Shi is right, I really should leave!" Looking at the gray sky, Lin Liang sighed and stretched out his hand to push open his courtyard door.

As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, Lin Liang saw Xu Shan, a little fat man who had been standing in the courtyard for an unknown amount of time.

"Boss...... Are you really going to leave?" Xu Shan's eyes looked directly at Lin Liang.

Lin Liang was silent, what could he do if he didn't leave now? Although the agreement between himself and He Yun was made in private, He Yan had already spread the news throughout the entire sect, forcing Lin Liang to leave the Life and Destruction Sect. This can be seen from the many different eyes of the same family along the way back, obviously no one is optimistic about Lin Liang.

"Yes, I'll pack up my things and get ready to leave!" Lin Liang said lightly, as if the person who left was not himself, and at the same time walked towards the house by himself.

Bang! The wooden door slammed shut, and Xu Shan, who was in the courtyard, clenched his hands and looked at the closed door, and finally left the courtyard.

When the sect master announced the inner gate trial, Xu Shan was still on a mission outside the sect, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen when he came back. Although he kept calling Lin Liang the boss, but after thinking about it carefully, he never helped Lin Liang, but Lin Liang has always been helping him. This feeling of having no strength made Xu Shan hate it very much, he needed strength!

In the hut, Lin Liang didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he heard the sound of the courtyard door closing, and immediately began to pack up his things. The wine gourd left by the old man, half a parchment roll, and the smelter's codex given by Huo Xing, etc., these were all things that Lin Liang had to bring.

Hang the wine gourd around your waist, and put the rest in a Qiankun bag and carry it closely. Carrying the long stick and breaking it, Lin Liang dressed as a loose cultivator, and finally took a look at the hut and courtyard that belonged to him, Lin Liang closed the door, and then turned around and walked towards the mountain gate without a trace of nostalgia.
