Chapter 108: Refining
The time for drawing spirit runes every day, Chen Xuan could draw all fifty runes in less than ten minutes, and then he practiced the Golden Body Gong, and the rest of the time he arranged to learn alchemy.
He didn't start refining the weapon right away, but while carefully studying the refining classics and some refining notes of the refiners, he used ordinary ores to practice his hands, learning the most basic materials for refining the weapon, and inscribed runes.
Alchemy +1

Alchemy +1
Chen Xuan carefully studied the alchemy classics, and it didn't take long for him to brush up on the skill of 'alchemy'.
After brushing out the alchemy skills, when Chen Xuan studied the refiner's notes, every time he read it, some feelings would emerge in his mind, and his understanding of alchemy would go further.
Every day, Chen Xuan's understanding of alchemy was improving.
If you are a monk who does not know anything about alchemy, if you study alchemy on your own, and if you want to fully understand the theoretical knowledge recorded in the alchemy classics, it is impossible to do it without a year and a half of kung fu time.
But Chen Xuan, it only took a month to thoroughly read the refining classics and some refiner's notes.
In addition, the quenching technology of materials has also been basically mastered.
"The theoretical knowledge is almost mastered, and the refining of materials has also been mastered, and it is almost time to start trying refining tools."
Chen Xuan purchased a batch of refining materials and prepared to refine magic weapons.
In order to save materials, he chose the most common and simplest magic sword to refine.
But even if it is only a primary magic sword, it needs iron ore that grows near the spiritual veins, and spiritual iron containing a small amount of spiritual energy, so that it can withstand the runes, integrate with the runes, and use them for tens or hundreds of years.
Spirit runes are one-time consumables, so the materials are cheaper than refining tools, and a magic weapon can be used for tens or hundreds of years, and ordinary things naturally can't carry runes for such a long time.
However, some high-level spirit runes, such as those that have reached the yellow level and above, can be used many times, and some are even like magic weapons, which can be used for decades or even hundreds of years.
It's just that after each use, the aura in the rune is exhausted, and the aura needs to be reabsorbed.
After preparing all the materials, the cave was shrouded in clouds and mist, and isolated from outsiders, Chen Xuan began the first refining in his life.
To refine a primary magic sword, it is also simple, first of all, to quench the spirit iron with fire, cast it into a sword embryo, and then maintain the temperature of the flame to make the sword embryo in a high temperature state, and then use the true yuan mana to engrave runes on the sword embryo.
The rune engraved by Chen Xuan is called 'Fengrui'.
The magic sword is engraved with sharp runes, so as long as the runes on the magic weapon are activated, the magic weapon is to release an incomparably sharp qi, which can easily cut through the so-called heavy armor in the mundane.
Moreover, the more sharp runes on the magic sword, the more terrifying the power becomes.
Ordinary primary magic weapons, with only one to three runes or so.
If the number of runes exceeds three, it will reach the intermediate magic weapon level.
The magic weapon in Chen Xuan's hand, among which there is only one rune of the shadowless needle, there is only one rune for the primary magic sword and magic weapon rune pen, and there is a rune on the tortoiseshell shield, which shows that the quality of the tortoiseshell is better than that of the shadowless needle, the primary magic sword and the magic weapon rune pen.
On the other Blood Soul Banner, there are three runes.
The level of this magic weapon has reached the peak of the primary magic weapon.
In addition, Chen Xuan also had the formation flag of the Cloud Mist Array in his hand, which could be regarded as a magic weapon.
However, a real formation mage can arrange a formation without a formation flag.
As long as there are spirit stones, the runes are engraved on the spirit stones, and the use of spirit stones can be arranged anytime and anywhere, this is the real formation mage, some powerful formations, and even the runes can be engraved on the mountains and rivers.
There is a rumor in the immortal cultivation world.
Runes are a kind of words that carry the power of heaven and earth created by the formation mage to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth, and each rune contains special magical power.
As long as the runes are drawn with mana, they contain special powers.
Therefore, runes are also called French.
Array, instrument, Dan, symbol.
Among the four arts of cultivating immortals, the formation is the most difficult.
The second is refining tools and alchemy, which is the easiest to get started with talismans.
A few hours later, Chen Xuan tempered the spirit iron into a sword embryo, which maintained a high temperature on the flames, and Chen Xuan wanted to engrave the runes in the sword embryo in this state.
This difficulty is much more difficult than drawing runes on rune paper.
In addition to the influence of the high temperature of the flame, the rune to be engraved by refining the magic weapon is also a rune that can exist for a long time and can be used for a long time, while the rune that draws the spirit rune will disappear after using rune ink to stimulate the power in it.
Therefore, the runes engraved on the refining magic weapon are much more difficult than the spirit runes.
One is a drawing, the other is an inscription.
The rune is engraved on the embryo of the magic weapon, and after the quenching is completed, the magic artifact is emitted, and the magic weapon is refined.
It's easy to say, but it's not easy to do.
Even if Chen Xuan had practiced inscribed runes before, he had not practiced with True Yuan Mana, and if he used True Yuan Mana to engrave, ordinary mortal iron would not be able to withstand the power of the runes at all, and it would be shattered directly.
Only with true spirit iron can the runes engraved with true element mana be carried.
Now, real guns are dry.
Chen Xuancai condensed the true yuan mana into the first rune of the 'sharp' rune and engraved it on the sword embryo, and there was an explosion of 'Peng' in the ding, and his first refining was over.
Not to mention the quenching level, even the runes are not inscribed.
"Refining weapons, it's really much more difficult than drawing spirit runes."
Chen Xuan sighed.
In his own right, he is an intermediate talisman maker and has a certain study of runes.
But when it comes to refining weapons, the difficulty suddenly increases more than tenfold.
However, the failure of the first refining did not hit Chen Xuan.
Or rather, it's to be expected.
Because he never thought that he would be able to refine it successfully the first time he refined it.
It is impossible for any refiner, even if it is a genius refiner, to succeed in refining a weapon the first time.
If refining weapons was so easy, then refiners would not be so rare, in the entire Baiyunfang City, there were many casual cultivation talisman makers, and there were even intermediate talisman makers, but there was not a single refiner from casual cultivation.
The casual cultivation of the inner qi realm can only be an apprentice of refining.
Because, if you want to refine a magic weapon, you need to use the true yuan mana to engrave the runes, and what the Inner Qi Realm Scattered Cultivation can do is to refine the magic weapon materials and learn theoretical knowledge.
However, no matter how much theoretical knowledge is learned, if it is not put into practice, it will be just talk on paper.
In the previous five family alliances, the five immortal cultivation families all added up to the number of refining masters, and the number of refining weapons did not exceed the number of hands.
