Old man Lu was very fast, and it only took two weeks to prepare all the materials he could collect, but some of them he couldn't complete the extraction.

This is not difficult for Long Li.

After processing, Long Li collected a total of 43 materials, which is the current limit.

Looking at the 43 kinds of metal materials on the table, Long Li showed a confident smile on his face, everything would be easy to do with them as a foundation.

took out the metal trait table sorted out by Old Man Lu, and he memorized the contents in his mind, and at the same time sorted out and analyzed it according to his own knowledge system, and then verified the doubts one by one.

Rao was like this, and it took a week.

This week, Old Man Lu also prepared a lot of rare metals for Long Li, which cost a lot of money, but fortunately, after the promotion of the new refining method, he earned a lot of money, so he could fill this big hole.

Compared to Old Man Lu's speed, Old Man Tie was much slower.

The matter on the Iron Old Man's side is not in a hurry.

Knowing that Long Li was preparing for retreat, the two old men put down their work and came to help.

"Apprentice, you can do this retreat boldly and boldly, and you will be guarded by a promising teacher to keep you safe."

Old man Lu was not to be outdone, "If you have any needs from your nephew, please just ask, I'll be here and on call." ”

Long Li felt the eagerness of the two of them and nodded emphatically.

"Apprentice, if you can really advance to level 4, I hope that the first thing you will forge is your own hammer."

Long Li was puzzled, "Why?" ”

"I remember that your ancestor said this, you can try it and you will know."

"Fools who don't want to know much, of course, the hammer that you forged for the first time is the most suitable for your heart, and it is also the most memorable."

Long Li took it down and began the retreat.

After adjusting his condition to the best, Long Li began to call out the second egg to get ready for work, he picked up an iron ingot and originally planned to start forging directly, but when he thought of the old man's words, he hesitated, picked up a few iron ingots again and threw them in.

"Let's try."

The iron was burned red, and Long Li picked up the iron and placed it on top of the iron felt, then picked up the hammer and began to beat it.

Since it was a 10,000-wrought iron ingot, Long Li directly picked it up with a small hammer and began to unblock the internal structure.

Ding Ding Ding –

The rhythm of the dragon beating is like a musical performance, which is pleasant to the ear.

As soon as they heard such a rhythm, the two old men outside the door glanced at each other, and the joy on their faces was self-evident.

After a quick beating, the tempo began to slow down. Gradually, Long Li keenly felt that the internal structure of the iron block was gradually dredged, and it had reached the standard of ordinary 4th order.

But Long Li was not satisfied.

To advance perfectly, he had to do better.

He silently calculated in his heart.

5 into 6 into 7 ......

As the iron ingot increased the amount of Yuan Force, the difficulty of forging also increased sharply, and finally the increase of Yuan Force was stuck at the level of ninety percent.

Looking at the iron ingot in his hand, Long Li frowned slightly.

Just like the self who has not opened up the meridians of the whole body, the iron ingot in front of him also has a feeling of incompleteness.

Staring at the iron ingot in front of him, Long Li was entangled in his heart, should he try it?

A thought flashed through him, and Long Li planned to give it a try.

Even if it's for the sake of success.

Long Li followed his previous thoughts, first took out the beast pill, and then shattered it and injected its essence into it, which was one of the methods he could think of.

Whew~ Long Li exhaled a breath of turbidity, raised a small hammer in his right hand, and the bottom of the hammer was a hazy spiritual force, and he swung it hard and smashed it on the iron ingot.

Ding-bell!

The two old men who were betting outside suddenly changed their faces, "Why did you start using force?" ”

"How do I know!"

"You don't know your apprentice?"

"My apprentice is a genius, okay, I'll understand it once I teach it, and the rest is all my own understanding."

"You're a piece of shit."

"You're not even as good as trash."

"You ......"

In the forging room, Long Li felt that something was wrong after he fell down, and there was an inexplicable sense of repulsion resisting his movements, in order to eliminate this resistance, Long Li increased the intensity of his swing.

With the increase of strength, the iron also changed rapidly, and the originally lifeless iron began to have a touch of smart charm, and as the beating process deepened, the touch of agility became stronger and stronger.

up to a certain node.

The aura of the iron block had accumulated to a limit, and Long Li's eyes were full of golden light at this time, "It's the last moment!" ”

Long Li raised his hammer high and smashed it into the iron ingots on the felt.

Bite!

The iron ingot suddenly shone and began to change its luster, but it turned halfway through and changed sharply.

Click!

The brilliance on the iron ingot suddenly changed, and two different lights eroded each other inside, and finally the iron ingot cracked in half with a click.

Long Li put down the hammer in silence, and failed on the first attempt!

Holding this piece of iron, which was closest to the real 4th order, Long Li was puzzled in his heart.

What caused it to crack at the last moment, and what was going on with the two colors of light?

Long Li looked at the scrap iron in his hand and was very confused.

"Cracked, why?"

Looking at the scrap iron in his hand, it has completely lost its luster, the internal meridians have been destroyed in a mess, and the quality has fallen to the level of thousands of forgings.

Lao Jin also fell silent, although he didn't know how to forge, he also saw some problems, "Soul power is rushing, maybe this soul beast is not suitable for this iron ingot!" ”

Long Li's eyes lit up, "Maybe it's this problem, those two colors of light should be evidence of the confrontation of soul power." ”

After being reminded by Lao Jinyi, Long Li immediately had an idea.

Changed to an iron ingot to continue the experiment, this time Long Li first adjusted the characteristics of the iron ingot to the ratio that matched the beast pill, and then still tried to increase the yuan power to ninety, and finally began to raise the spirit.

There was another clanging of the ingots, and in the end the ingots still did not come out of the cracking.

The difference is that this time it lasted a little longer.

This also shows that material properties are not the determining factor.

Long Li threw the hammer on the same side and sat down on the side, replaying the details in his mind.

There is no problem with tapping.

There was no problem with unblocking.

The increase is acceptable.

The problem arises with the spirit.

After a moment of contemplation, Long Li began to beat again, and this time it was two weeks.

Two weeks later, Old Man Tie and Old Man Lu both drank a little wine outside, and there was no one else who was the door god.

"Hey, Iron Rooster, this kid Long Li has been striking iron less and less recently, is there any problem?"

"You still need to say, smart people can hear it."

"You are a hammer, you dare to scold me! Hmph, if it weren't for the sake of my teacher and nephew, Lao Tzu would teach you to be a man! ”

"Hehe, just you? Don't say I'm at the same level as you, even if you let you have one arm and one leg, you won't be able to beat me now! ”

"I'm too lazy to bother with you! You have also hit the seventh order, and it is so difficult for you to talk about spirits? ”

"The difficulty of the spirit is not in the forging, but in the stability! As you know, it is very difficult for us to confine the soul of a beast in a weapon, and to make it stable without a secret or the guidance of a famous teacher, we must bear the price of failure. ”

"You mean that my nephew has now reached the point of stabilizing his soul?"

"Even if it's not, it's pretty much the same!"

"Hey~ My nephew is really evil, it seems that it won't be long before he can surpass me."

The old man smiled disdainfully, "It's still a matter of minutes to break the sixth order beyond you?" ”

"I'm too lazy to argue with you, if I want me to say that if my nephew can complete the preliminary spiritual uprising, it will only be a matter of one or two years before you surpass you."

The old man's face darkened, and the sense of urgency in his heart became stronger and stronger.

The two waited like this for another two days, and the door behind them creaked open.

"Master and nephew, the refining weapon is ......"

The old man snatched the conversation, "Apprentice, let's go and rest first, this matter is not in a hurry!" ”

Long Li nodded, said a brief goodbye, and left the forging room.

"Looking at the haggard appearance of my teacher and nephew, it seems that this retreat has not gained much."

The old man sighed, "It's a good thing to fail, at least you know what you can't do, and maybe you can do it a few more times." ”

"Reasonable! I hope that my master and nephew can complete their cultivation quickly. ”

Three days later, Long Li's face was naturally pale, but his spirit was obviously much better.

The three of them talked about the retreat again, and Long Li talked about his gains.

"Master, it's better to put off your advanced matters for a while!"

"What, did you find anything?"

Long Li nodded and pondered for a moment, "It's not impossible to fix the beast spirit into the weapon, but this path is very dangerous and harmful, so Master, you better use another method." ”

Old man Lu suddenly thought of something, and said in shock: "Senior nephew, have you been devoured by the fierce beast?" ”

Long Li smiled bitterly and nodded.

"Are you alright?" The old man was sweating profusely, and his heart was even more uplifted.

"I'm fine, I'll be cured after a few days of rest! I have thought about it for the past few days, there are too many disadvantages of this method, even if it can forge a divine weapon, but this kind of weapon that devours the Lord must not be sold, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

The old man sighed, "Yes, but it's also something that can't be helped. ”

"Then can the nephew think of other ways?"

Long Li shook his head, "Not for the time being, I still need some time to find inspiration." ”

In fact, Long Li already understood that this spirit could not rely on external objects, but he didn't know where to start when relying on himself, so he froze.

There are some things that can't be rushed, and Long Li didn't force it.

Communicating some of his thoughts with the two old men, Long Li also gained a lot, at least forging a weapon that doubled the Yuan Force had a few more layers of certainty.

As for advancement, there is no way to do it for the time being.

"Alas, I'll have to wait a while for Binglan's bow."

"Hopefully I won't miss the game."
