Chapter 53: Jian Cheng

Condensing the flying sword is not an overnight effort, especially the first step, the sword intent warms the material, and it is also the kung fu of water grinding.

Chen Qi was ready for a protracted battle from the beginning.

In the grotto, Chen Qi sat cross-legged, his hands pressed on the nameless metal, as if the old monk was in a trance, and the full sword intent gradually converged, and under Chen Qi's control, all of them were submerged into the nameless metal.

It stands to reason that sword intent is a kind of spiritual power, which belongs to intangible things, but after Chen Qi's sword intent invaded the nameless metal, it was obscure and difficult to do.

However, Chen Qi was not disappointed when such a scene appeared, but his face was happy.

He knew in his heart that this situation just illustrated the preciousness of this nameless metal, although he didn't understand the name of this metal, but through the touch of the sword intent, he could conclude that it was far beyond ordinary iron.

And the more precious the material, the more complex the sword pattern that can withstand in the end, if it can withstand a complete set of sword patterns, the condensed flying sword can also be included in the body.

Although Chen Qi didn't know what material Xue Dongyang's flying sword was made of, judging from the exercises analyzed from it, Xue Dongyang's flying sword obviously did not withstand a complete set of sword patterns.

Flying swords are like bullets and guns to sword cultivation.

Once the flying sword is condensed, when the flying sword is too far away from the body, it will affect the user's mind, so this is also the reason why Xue Dongyang holds the sword all day long.

The progress of using sword intent to nourish the nameless metal is very slow, and the whole process is like playing Othello, only when the sword intent completely encroaches on the whole of the metal, the first step is considered to be completed.

And this process is also very boring, not only boring, but also very draining the mind of the sword refiner.

However, Chen Qi's spirit had been condensed with the blessing of the three-body exploration mystery, and his mental toughness was higher than that of ordinary cultivators, but even so, Chen Qi only lasted for eight hours before he had a splitting headache.

In desperation, he had no choice but to put away his sword intent and began to carry out the Heavenly Determination for pranayama.

Fortunately, Tianyan has the characteristics of the three-body exploration of the mysteries, and the recovery effect on the spirit after the exercise is also obvious.

But even so, it took Chen Qi nearly two hours to return his mental state to his original state.

After finishing his work, Chen Qi still faintly felt that his sword intent had become more condensed than before.

In my heart, it seems that using the flying sword to nourish the nameless metal also has the effect of condensing the sword intent.

After recovering, Chen Qi did not immediately continue to recuperate, and in the previous eight hours, Chen Qi's progress in infusing sword intent recuperation had only reached about three percent, and according to this progress, the time it took to complete the first step alone was almost half a month.

Chen Qi didn't know how much time Cui Ran would give him, so he could only pray that he would be able to refine the flying sword before Cui Ran came to look for him, otherwise Cui Qi would find out that he could also cultivate swords, and he might be shocked.

Got up and walked out of the grotto, it was getting late, and Silly Bai lay on a boulder not far from the grotto to take a nap.

Hearing Chen Qi's approaching footsteps, his silly white ears trembled slightly, and a spirit turned over and stood up, and when he saw that it was Chen Qi, he put his mind at ease and continued to lie down, drooping his head, and was worried about Chen Qi forcibly moving the shack it had built.

Seeing this, Chen Qi couldn't help but laugh and scolded through the contract:

"What's there to be nostalgic for your nest made of broken weeds, go back and wait for us to go out and prepare a noble place for you, which is guaranteed to be more than ten times more comfortable than your broken nest!"

While speaking, Chen Qi conveyed the comfort of the mattress quilt to Silly Bai.

Feeling the message from Chen Qi, Silly Bai sent a doubtful thought, not quite believing the feeling described by Chen Qi, it still thought that its nest was the most comfortable place in the world.

Chen Qi shook his head again and again, and began to denounce Silly Bai for not understanding the beauty of the human world at all, so he described the delicacies in the human world to Silly Bai.

The eyes of the stupid white listeners were starry, and he couldn't wait to run out immediately to taste the human delicacies described by Chen Qi, a tiger's mouth grew big, and saliva slowly dripped from the corners of his mouth.

After doing some induction education, Chen Qi instructed Silly Bai to catch game for himself, and then divided the labor of Silly Bai, he went hunting, and Chen Qi was responsible for cooking.

For the roasted game that Chen Qi said, Silly Bai has already salivated.

At first, I thought that the electric grilled fish snatched from Chen Qi was already the most delicious thing in the whole world.

However, the meat roasted by Chen Qi and the others next to the cave this morning made it understand that there is more delicious food in the world than the electric grilled fish.

If it weren't for the fact that Chen Qi threatened it through a spiritual connection at that time, it would have jumped out of Chen Qi's backpack to compete with Chen Qi and the others for food, and it was able to restrain itself at that time because it had already eaten it out once when Chen Qi arranged for it to go hunting in the morning, so even if the fragrance was tempting at that time, it could still bear it.

Now when he heard Chen Qi say that he wanted to roast meat for it, he rushed out, like a little brother before and after the saddle, without any regard for the majesty of his king of beasts.

Looking at the silly white who was as diligent as a shopkeeper at this time, Chen Qi couldn't help but sigh, the charm of food is so great, it can actually make demon beasts run errands willingly.

You must know that although Chen Qi accepted him as a pet through his handprints before, he was still dissatisfied with Chen Qi in his heart, so what he said to Chen Qi was basically contrary to Yang Feng Yin.

But at this time, because of the food, he instantly abandoned his plastic pride.

Silly Bai went very quickly, and came back very quickly.

In just a few minutes, Silly Bai came back with a pheasant in his mouth, threw the pheasant at Chen Qi's feet, and then hurriedly ran out.

Looking at the frizzy silly white, Chen Qi felt rarely funny, he took out the barbecue tools unhurriedly, found firewood and lit it, thought about it and went to a puddle at the foot of the mountain next to him to pluck and wash the pheasant.

When Chen Qi came back, he found that Silly Bai was standing in the position where Chen Qi was before, looking around, and when he saw Chen Qi's figure, he ran over with the rabbit in three or two steps, and then shook his head in the direction of the fire that Chen Qi had erected.

The idea of going to roast quickly was passed to Chen Qi.

Chen Qi looked at its impatient appearance, and suddenly felt funny, and he didn't feel that it was the demon beast that dragged him for two days and one night before.

Now he is stupid, more like a gluttonous child.

Chen Qi had no choice but to patiently explain the steps of roasting wild game to Silly Bai.

Silly Bai nodded as if he didn't understand, then turned around and went down the mountain to find new prey, while Chen Qi roasted food by the fire.

When he was full, Silly Bai returned to his shack again, although the nest was moved by Chen Qi, but after all, it was more comfortable than sleeping on the stones outside.

Chen Qi first breathed and sorted out his spirit, and then began to release his sword intent to warm up the nameless piece of metal.

Time passed slowly, and ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Chen Qi also happened to use his sword intent to completely warm up the nameless metal, and now his sword intent wandered in the nameless metal as if it was in the air, unimpeded.

And in the past ten days, Chen Qi and Silly Bai have also gotten along more and more harmoniously, under the temptation of Chen Qi's barbecue, Silly Bai has completely admitted that Chen Qi is his master's identity, and there is no slightest resistance.

Through the feeling of its emotions, Chen Qi found that in its heart, it was even a lucky thing to have an owner who could prepare barbecue for it.

In this way, in terms of food, there is a clear division of labor between one person and one tiger, Silly Bai is responsible for finding food, and Chen Qi is responsible for barbecue.

And most of the rest of the time, Chen Qi spends his time warming up the nameless metal, and when his spirit is too tired, he relaxes for a while, or teaches some stupid white human language.

Silly Bai was originally a demon beast, although he had only been close to a human like Chen Qi since the opening of his spiritual intelligence, but because of his pure heart, it was very receptive.

In just ten days, he was already able to understand some simple language spoken by Chen Qi.

Feeling the sword intent shuttling in the nameless metal, Chen Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

The first step is also the most time-consuming step to complete, and the next step is much faster.

instructed Silly Bai to go hunting some game and come back, and decided to start carving the sword pattern again the next day, and rest for a day today.

The next day, as soon as he woke up, Chen Qi made all the preparations, and then crossed his knees in front of the metal, using his sword intent to wrap his true qi into silk threads and inject them into the nameless metal.

Because the nameless metal had been warmed by the sword intent, he did not reject Chen Qi's sword intent, so Chen Qi used the sword intent to guide the true qi silk thread to build a sword pattern in the nameless metal.

The so-called sword pattern is actually the pattern of the sword, and the flying sword composed of different sword patterns is actually different.

Chen Qi chose a set of sword patterns called Qiushui from his memory according to his own characteristics, and the reason why he chose this set of sword patterns was because this was the only set of sword patterns without any attributes in Chen Qi's memory.

Don't think that this set of sword patterns will be easy without attributes, but no attributes actually means that it can bear all attributes, although it can't compare to a single attribute, but fortunately, it will not contradict all attributes.

The whole set of autumn water sword patterns is divided into 1008 patterns, each of which has its own constant position, and then the lines crisscross each other, echoing each other from afar, and finally form a complex sword pattern like a flying sword.

Fortunately, the inscription of the sword pattern is made with true qi, not pen and ink, even if you accidentally get the wrong tattoo in any place, you can also modify it in time by changing the true qi.

But even if it could be modified, the 1008 veins were not so easy to complete, and Chen Qi didn't know if this nameless metal could withstand the 1008 complete sword patterns.

Although as long as it can withstand half a set, it can be condensed into a flying sword, but the flying sword condensed by half a set of sword patterns is always inferior to the flying sword condensed by a full set of sword patterns.

And the speed of condensing the flying sword with a full set of sword patterns is also much faster than that of a half set, especially since a full set of sword patterns can also incorporate the flying sword into the body.

Therefore, Chen Qi could only pray in his heart that this nameless metal could withstand 1008 sword patterns.

You must know that Chen Qi also discovered the Xuanyang sword pattern used by Xue Dongyang by recalling Xue Dongyang's flying sword, and that set of sword patterns was only 360 sword patterns.

It took Chen Qi another three days to form the sword pattern, and when Chen Qi carved the eighteenth sword pattern, it began to collapse, but fortunately, the nameless metal could still withstand it, and at this time, the true qi consumed by each composition was also getting bigger and bigger.

Originally, Chen Qi had already engraved the nine hundred and fifty sword patterns on the second day, but the remaining fifty-eight sword patterns took Chen Qi a whole day.

When the last sword pattern was engraved in the trembling of the nameless metal, the last trace of true qi in Chen Qi's body was also drained clean.

After the true qi was exhausted, Chen Qi sat down beside him dejectedly, his face was pale, he had already engraved this last sword pattern twelve times, and each time it would cost half of his true qi.

After successive failures, Chen Qi was about to give up, he thought that the nameless metal had reached its limit, but when he thought about making one last attempt, he finally succeeded.

Feeling the autumn water sword pattern in the nameless metal that echoed with him, Chen Qi couldn't help but laugh excitedly.

After the sword pattern is formed, in fact, the flying sword is equivalent to having been formed, and the final condensation is nothing more than using true qi to activate this sword pattern, and then forcibly refining the material into a flying sword through the rules of the sword pattern.

Therefore, the first and second steps are the first and second steps, and the third step seems to be the most varied, but it is the easiest.

Chen Qi couldn't wait for the third step, so he hurriedly ran Tianyan to restore his true qi.

Half an hour later, Chen Qi regained his true qi, and he couldn't wait to pour Tianyan true qi into the sword pattern, urging the sword pattern to start refining the nameless metal.

The progress of refining is actually not fast, but compared to the previous first and second stages, the progress of this third stage is like an accelerator.

Looking at the little deformation of the nameless metal, Chen Qi's expectations are also increasing.

Although refining didn't take much effort, it consumed a lot of true qi, and Chen Qi recovered his true qi three or four times halfway before it was done.

In fact, in the tenth hour of refining, the nameless metal had already preliminarily taken the prototype of a flying sword, and at this time, Chen Qi had already been able to take the nameless metal out of the stone wall.

Because the refining has not yet been completed, Chen Qi can still clearly feel the weight of this piece of metal in his hand, such a small piece, he actually feels a little heavy with his current strength.

In the twenty-fifth hour, the sword pattern finally refined the nameless metal into a flying sword.

A three-foot-long ancient sword floated in front of Chen Qi in the air, up and down, within reach.

The body of the sword is dark, and there is a sword pattern composed of red light looming in the middle.

Chen Qi could feel the existence of this flying sword even if his eyes were closed at this time, and it was like Chen Qi's arm, which could move freely with Chen Qi's mind.
