Chapter 212: Refining Conference
In the room, three people sit at a square table. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
"Ahem. β
An Yudi coughed dryly and introduced: "Master Lu, this is our new star in rejecting the Yellow League, Yao Xiang." β
"Haha, in Xia Yao Xiang, Master Lu, I have heard your name for a long time, and now I can see it, it is really a blessing for three lives. β
Yao Xiang got up and grabbed Lu Yun's hand, and said with a warm smile,
Lu Yun squinted at him, Yao Xiang didn't feel embarrassed at all, and smiled brightly.
"Alright. β
Lu Yun withdrew his hand and said lightly: "There are more people who want to knock my stuffy stick, and you are not one of them." β
Yao Xiang smiled and retracted his palm.
An Yudi explained on the side: "When I was looking for Master Lu, I accidentally learned that Master Lu and Lord Shoufu had a relationship over the years, and I dared to directly find Master Lu for help. β
Lu Yun nodded slightly, and said: "Thirty years ago, I owed Cao Qing a life, since you are his henchmen, I will naturally help if I can." β
Yao Xiang is happy, it turns out that there is such a relationship, which is much easier to do.
"Don't rejoice too soon, I've already learned what you think. β
Lu Yun looked at Yao Xiang and said lightly: "I'm not optimistic about you, or rather, I don't think you can succeed at all, the refining conference held by the Xiong family this time brings together top refining masters from all over the dynasty, if you want to win the championship, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky." β
Yao Xiang said resolutely: "No matter what, you have to try it, and you won't miss a chance." β
Lu Yun shrugged his shoulders, he wiped it on the ring, and a fiery red invitation flew out and landed in front of Yao Xiang: "I can not participate in the conference, and the invitation can be given to you, but ......"
Lu Yun stared at Yao Xiang and said in a low voice: "Since you have participated in the refining conference, I hope you can use the means of a refiner to get what you want, if not, please leave the Xiong family and abandon your identity as a refiner before you do your own plans." β
Yao Xiang was slightly stunned.
"I, Lu Yun, am a refiner, any refiner takes the competition between peers as the highest glory, since you are participating as my disciple, you can lose a mess, you can lose miserably, I Lu Yun never cares about other people's opinions, do you understand what I mean?"
Lu Yun stared at Yao Xiang's eyes and said solemnly.
Yao Xiang exhaled lightly and nodded.
"I see. β
Yao Xiang said solemnly: "Please rest assured seniors." β
The corners of Lu Yun's mouth twitched slightly, he got up and left, and said without looking back: "The person Cao Qing likes is a person who does what he says." β
Yao Xiang leaned back in the chair behind him, his hands resting behind his head, and said nothing.
"Yao Xiang, this ......"
An Yudi frowned.
Yao Xiang closed his eyes slightly and said, "He is afraid that we will use the invitation to go in and use force or other unclean means to get the dragon bone flowers and plants." β
An Yudi glared: "Then you still promised him? Do you really want to rely on refining skills to win the first place, how is it possible?"
Yao Xiang looked at An Yudi.
"You heard it just now, he said that any refiner has the highest honor in the competition between his peers. β
Yao Xiang said seriously: "Either use the means of the refiner to be upright, win the first place, and obtain the dragon bone flowers and plants, or take off the identity of his disciple and rely on his own means to forcibly obtain and steal, he doesn't want us to defile the refining conference, which belongs to the pride of the refiner, this time I'm afraid he doesn't owe Cao Qing a life, this invitation will not be given to us anyway." β
An Yudi looked at the fiery red invitation on the table and stopped talking.
Yu Long waved his tail and said lightly, "This is a qualified refiner." β
Yao Xiang rubbed his eyebrows and exhaled: "In this case, we can only find a way to refine the weapon, Yu Long, everything depends on you." β
Yu Long lay on the table and sighed: "Boy, Master Long should do his best, whether he can succeed or not depends on the will of God." β
The third day was long overdue.
The city was still as noisy as ever, and ordinary people didn't notice that people had entered the Xiong family, which looked like a small palace, one after another, which showed the low-key nature of this refining conference.
"Let's go. β
In the room, Yao Xiang and An Yudi left the inn side by side, An Yudi put on a hat to cover his face, while Yao Xiang changed his appearance slightly, and his appearance changed slightly, although people who are familiar with Yao Xiang can see it at a glance, but in this unfamiliar place, who can recognize Yao Xiang.
The two came all the way to Xiong's house.
"Welcome to the Xiong family. β
The door was greeted by a big Xuandan realm, and he took the invitation from Yao Xiang with a smile, glanced at the name on the invitation, and squinted slightly.
"The teacher was in retreat and ordered me to come to the conference. β
Yao Xiang said lightly.
"Oh, I see, please. β
The Great Xuandan Realm of the Xiong family didn't say anything, and welcomed the two of them in with a smile, and there were servants inside who took Yao Xiang and the others inside.
"Lu Yun?"
The Great Xuandan Realm standing at the door looked at the invitation in his hand, he had only heard of this mysterious and abnormal refining master, but he had never met it, but he had also heard from the head of the family that this Lu Yun had made extraordinary achievements in refining, and this refining conference might be for the disciples under his command to come and practice.
Yao Xiang and the two were led by the servants, bypassing the corridor with nine curves and ten bends, and after a full quarter of an hour, a wide open space appeared in the field of vision, with a length of three or four miles, and there were many seats around, and there were already many people sitting on the seats, the number was roughly swept, and there should be thousands of people, and the crowd was surging.
The servant led Yao and Xiang to the open space in the middle, where there were thirty huge stoves two people high, and a large stone platform with a width of one zhang.
On the front sign of the stone platform, there is the word Lu Yun.
Yao Xiang's eyes swept around, it seemed that there should be thirty contestants, so thirty stoves were prepared, and the stone platform in front of each stove had a conspicuous name, and in addition to them, more than ten people had already arrived.
On the towering platform in the distance, there was a row of people sitting, looking at its appearance, it should be some elders of the Xiong family and invited guests.
"Oh?"
A man with a large conch on the high platform glanced down at the information transmitted from the door, and his voice was amplified, echoing throughout the square: "The nineteenth stone platform has arrived, let's see, this is the position of Master Lu Yunlu, but this time Master Lu couldn't come to retreat, so he specially sent his two proud protΓ©gΓ©s to compete for the best." β
Sparse applause rang out.
Yao Xiang didn't care, sat down on the futon to recuperate, An Yudi stood honestly aside, and the next time, gradually someone arrived in the square to sit down, about an hour later, Yao Xiang opened his eyes, and unconsciously, these thirty stoves already had people.
Yao Xiang's dragon in the dantian pursed his lips: "Master Long has lived for so many years, and it is the first time that I have seen a refiner who does not need to bring his own stove. β
Yao Xiang rolled his eyes: "This Xiong family is wealthy, and the thirty furnaces prepared are much better than those of most refining masters, and what kind of furnaces do you bring, how troublesome it is." β
"Hehe, kid, you don't know anything, for a refiner, how much does a good refining furnace weigh?"
Yu Long smiled and said, "Master Long has seen it with his own eyes, there are five heaven-level refiners, who fought for a refining furnace and broke their blood, and in the end, three people died, and one was disabled. β
Yao Xiang smacked his lips.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the refining conference held at our Xiong family. β
A middle-aged man in a brocade robe on the high platform got up with a smile, and his majestic power mixed with his voice spread throughout the audience: "I won't say much about the rules, I think everyone knows it very well, the refining conference has officially begun!"
Thirty furnaces of flames burned one after another,
"That's the head of the Xiong family, Xiong Qing. β
Yao Xiang glanced at the middle-aged man in the brocade robe on the high platform, it was a powerhouse of the Transformation Realm, and the only ground-level refiner of the Xiong family, and the leader of the refining world of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
"Alright, boy, don't be in a daze, quickly throw things into the furnace, and start calcining. β
The dragon urged.
Yao Xiang flipped his palm, took out the Longpan Sword, threw it into the furnace, and then injected Xuan Li into the furnace to increase the firepower to calcinate the Longpan Sword.
The refining weapon is mainly divided into three steps, first, exercise materials, second, fixed molding, third, inscription formation, especially the third formation is the most important, any mysterious weapon is contained in the formation, a good refining master manufacturing the mysterious weapon, which can allow the controller to enhance the strength of the extremely strong.
Yao Xiang's Dragon Pan Sword was originally made into an embryo, and it was not carefully processed, and the formation inside was also attached at will, but even so, it still used five hundred Xuanli pills, which shows how difficult this extraterrestrial meteorite is.
Like Yao Xiang, there are not a few people who bring artifact embryos, or rather, such people account for the majority, because for a refiner, it takes a year and a half to make a mysterious artifact, and this conference will naturally not last so long, so the most time-consuming and laborious forging and fixing are completed in advance.
Suddenly, Yao Xiang found that many eyes in the field stopped at him.
Yao Xiang looked around in astonishment, there was still a little laughter on the audience that made him scratch his head, he looked at the refiner next to him again, and found that except for him, everyone was quietly waiting for the flame oven, no one moved, all kinds of eyes stopped on Yao Xiang, most of them were puzzled and stunned.
"This ......"
An Yudi, who was standing on the side, also looked at Yao Xiang, with a stunned look on his face.
"Yao Xiang ......"
An Yudi hurriedly said: "The first step in refining is to warm the furnace first, how can anyone just throw the embryo into it and start forging." β
"It didn't say anything in the refining encyclopedia!"
Yao Xiang was stunned.
"Ahem......"
The presiding man on the high platform held a large conch, coughed dryly, and tried his best to play the round: "Haha, it seems that our disciple of Master Lu is very special, it is difficult for Master Lu to understand in simple terms over the years, has he studied any new refining methods, if you really don't need to adjust the temperature of the furnace, you can directly refine the weapon, it is indeed a blessing for our refiners, let's wait and see." β
Yao Xiang could only bite the bullet and start calcining at this time.
After a full three or four hours, someone began to start to put the embryos into the furnace one after another, and began to calcinate.
"Yu Long, can you be reliable, your face is lost. β
Yao Xiang sighed.
"Ouch, what's the stove, is it possible that you will control the temperature? β
Yu Long dug out his ears and said casually: "First destroy all the formations in the sword, and then we will find a way." β
Yao Xiang, who didn't know anything about refining, could only listen to Yu Long at this time.
Soon, half a day passed in the blink of an eye.
Yao Xiang controlled the flames formed by Xuan Li, broke into the Dragon Pan Sword, and finally destroyed all the rudimentary formations inside, the color of the surface of the Dragon Pan Sword was much darker, but the shape did not change in any way.
"This meteorite is too hard. β
Yao Xiang couldn't help but sigh, he had burned the flames for so long This Dragon Pan Sword was unscathed, how did those people in the Wanbao Pavilion create that extraterrestrial meteorite.
Yu Long propped himself up and said, "You have to infuse the Xuan Power into the Dragon Pill, in order to help you seal that kid's vitality, the Long Ye has spent all his strength, you must remember, wait for the Xuan Power to keep up, otherwise it will fall short." β
Yao Xiang nodded.
The dragon flew out of the dantian and rushed into the furnace, and Yao Xiang's mysterious power continued to pour into the dragon pill.
"That...... How did the engraving formation come about, it seems like this?"
Inside the Dragon Pan Sword, the dragon bared its teeth, the dragon's claws slid back and forth, and the Xuan Force formed a shape that Yao Xiang couldn't understand, covering the sword body.
The day goes by in the blink of an eye.
"Big brother, are you alright?"
Even with Yao Xiang's current cultivation, such a steady stream of infusion is still a little unbearable, a full day, Yu Long is still constantly absorbing the Xuan Force to depict the formation, Yao Xiang has lost track of how many formations it carved in the sword body, but to Yao Xiang's surprise, the formations it carved can be safely preserved, and there will be no problems.
"It's early, it's early, don't make any noise, this ghost is in trouble. β
The dragon waved his dragon claws impatiently, and then continued to draw the formation like a ghost talisman.
Another three days passed in the blink of an eye.
The Xuan Li in Yao Xiang's body was already close to the state of emptiness, his face was also slightly pale, he glanced at the people around him, three or four people had already completed the refining, and most of them were also in a state of imminent completion.
Yao Xiang didn't understand the refining weapon at all, and now it was all controlled by Yu Long, and he was only responsible for constantly providing Xuan power.
Another two days.
"Yulong! I can't hold it! What the hell are you doing?"
Yao Xiang only felt that his body was exhausted from the deficit of Xuan Li, and he couldn't help but shout.
"It's almost good, it's almost good, don't worry, it's almost good. β
The dragon stared at the blood-red eyes meticulously, and kept drawing.
At the moment, only Yao Xiang was left in the square who was still refining weapons, and many people were sneering at this master Lu disciple who didn't need a stove.
Finally, when Yao Xiang was about to lose his hold.
Yu Long excitedly shouted, "Done!"
Yao Xiang's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly stared at the furnace, and the ancient and dark dragon sword slowly came out of the furnace.
"Oh? Is it finally done?"
The host on the stage hurriedly said: "The last contestant of the competition, Master Lu's disciple, has finally completed the formation inscription!"
None of the people present had hope for Yao Xiang, this Master Lu's refining disciple was really mediocre, he didn't travel at all, how high could the grade of the Xuan Weapon be tempered?
The Dragon Pan Sword slowly came out of the oven and was suspended in mid-air.
Compared with the rest of the people, who were either exquisite or powerful in their breath, Yao Xiang's black sword did look very miserable.
"Contestant No. 19 is asked to hand over the artifact to the podium. β
The host's voice just fell, but he found that Xiong Qing, who was originally careless on the high platform, suddenly got up and stared at the heavy sword tightly.
"What's wrong?"
There are many people who have noticed Xiong Qing's changes, and they have also looked at it, is there anything special about that heavy sword?
"Is the induction wrong?"
Xiong Qing frowned and muttered to himself.
Yao Xiang grasped the palm of his hand, and the heavy sword fell to the rostrum, staying with the thirty kinds of mysterious weapons placed on the ground.
"Okay, the next step is the appraisal link, which will be assessed by our family head Xiong Qing and the elders. β
The moderator took two steps back.
Xiong Qing and several elders began to identify the first fan-shaped mysterious weapon, several elders held the fan one after another, and the Xuanli poured into it, investigated it, tried it, nodded slightly, and finally Xiong Qing went up to identify it for a while, and the group went back and forth, one by one.
The thirty refiners all looked nervously at the expressions and movements of the people above.
The group stopped in front of a spear.
"Hmm......"
Xiong Qing held the spear and waved it twice, revealing a hint of approval, and several elders also stroked their beards and nodded with a smile.
"Human-level high-level mystical weapon!"
The host shouted: "This is the work of the twenty-third contestant, Xu Tianxia and Xu Lao!"
A white-haired old man on the field smiled brightly.
Next, several human-level high-level mystical artifacts appeared, attracting a lot of praise.
After a while, Xiong Qing picked up a fiery red big knife, and the Xuan power poured into it, the big knife shook slightly, and a domineering aura spread out.
"The thirtieth contestant, Xiong Family Xiong Liu, the pinnacle of the human rank!"
The host said with a smile.
The crowd of the Xiong family present cheered, and the foreign refiners could only sigh secretly, the Xiong family deserved to be a refining family, and the skills of the clansmen under their command were so exquisite.
"It seems that the first place is the Xiong family again. β
"Compared with previous years, the Xiong family dominated the top three, this year is already very good. β
The crowd was talking.
Only the last quaint epee was left on the field.
Many people have ignored the past for this unsightly heavy sword, and several elders took turns to step forward, but they were surprised to find that they couldn't even hold the sword.
"This ......"
Many people on the field looked at each other and were confused.
Xiong Qing stepped forward, he held the hilt of the sword, and frowned: "It's so weird, it can suppress Xuanli ......"
After Xiong Qing tried it, he entered a stream of Xuan Force into the sword and checked the formation inside.
"It's ......"
Xiong Qing's face suddenly appeared with a look of horror, and the next moment, there was a shock in the middle of the quaintness, and a mighty aura spread out, and the waves of qi were four volumes, and the four were shocked.
"Ground Rank Mysterious Weapon?!"
Finally there was an incredible shout.
(Originally, I wanted to write about the refining part in detail, but now I find that it is too slow, so after thinking about it, I will try to mention it in one stroke.) )
