Chapter 43: Refining Weapons and Transforming Gods
After all the contestants were seated, the old inspector said in a loud voice: "On your refining position, there is a piece of parchment, which is the artifact you will refine next. Regarding the precautions for the competition, I only want to say two points, first, do not make noise or interfere with others, and second, in the shortest possible time, complete an artifact that meets the standards, the top ten can advance to the competition, and the other forty refiners will be eliminated!"
Out of a total of 50 contestants, only 10 were able to advance.
"Alright, I announce, now the game begins!"
The other refiners who had been paying attention to Yin Lan and Guan Hong before all turned solemn and quickly opened the parchment placed on the iron bed of the refiner.
Of course, if some of the contestants' exam questions are often refined before, or are good at, then they naturally have a lot of advantages.
"Refining an arm guard that can withstand the full strength of a third-level spirit martial artist?" Yin Lan flipped through the parchment scroll in front of him and saw his competition exam questions.
The knockout competition does not need to refine a complete spiritual weapon, that is, there is no need to construct a spiritual power to protect the path, and there is no need to even treat it with a reactive agent, as long as it can meet the requirements of the exam questions in terms of shape and performance.
If you want to refine a complete spiritual weapon, even if it is the most ordinary low-grade spiritual weapon, for a first-level refiner, it will take a long time, maybe a few days to complete, and naturally it cannot be used as an exam question for the elimination competition.
"I'll wipe it!" The embarrassed fat man next to Yin Lan was slightly dumbfounded after opening the parchment, and he muttered: "Refining a belt that is suitable for the size you wear requires that you can protect the dantian qi sea and be able to withstand the full force of the third-level spirit martial artist......
The embarrassed fat man lowered his head, glanced at his waistline, which was twice as fat as ordinary people, and wanted to cry without tears, so he couldn't help but scold: "I'm Nima......"
At this time, the serious cheer of the old man of the inspector came: "Contestant No. 34, don't talk and disturb others!"
The embarrassed fat man secretly scolded "your uncle" in his heart, and then completely accepted his fate, and hurriedly rummaged through the materials and tools on the iron bed of the refining machine, ready to refine.
With his size, refining a belt that fits his waist circumference has invisibly increased the difficulty for himself more than doubled.
Yin Lan felt a little funny, and then, he took his gaze back, and began to prepare the materials, compared to the fat man, he only needed to refine an arm guard that was not too large in area and weight, and the workload was much easier.
Even, he thought that it would be the Refiner Guild that deliberately gave preferential treatment to himself, the only ninth-level contestant.
Thirty-three refining position, after Guan Hong finished reading the parchment, his face showed a relaxed look, what he needed to refine was a dagger, and the requirement was that if it was used by a third-level spirit martial artist, he could cut an ordinary low-grade spirit weapon embryo.
The so-called low-grade spirit weapon embryo is an artifact that needs to be refined like Yin Lan and the embarrassed fat man, without constructing a spiritual power circuit and without material processing, it is only an embryo, which can make the third-level spiritual martial artist unable to damage the slightest bit without using the spiritual weapon.
The refining competition began, and the ring was in full swing.
"I'm Nima, I'm Nima, I'm Nima......" The fat man scolded in a low voice while swinging the sledgehammer hard, forging the black metal material in his hand, and making a "bang" impact sound.
Hiding his scolding by forging sounds, what a witty fat man.
Yin Lan didn't look at the fat man next to him, after the refining began, his attention was completely focused on the material in front of him, and in an instant, he entered a state of extreme concentration, exuding a unique temperament - confident, relaxed, and casual.
"Huh?" The old man who glanced at the inspector in the audience noticed Yin Lan from among the many contestants in an instant.
I saw Yin Lan put an irregularly shaped piece of blue metal on the iron bed, held the hard and cold hammer handle in his hand, and forged it.
"Bang, bang, bang. ”
The action is relaxed and freehand, not impatient, and every hammer is smashed down with extreme precision, and the sound of the hammer hitting the metal is full of wonderful rhythm.
And every time he forged the blue metal block, Yin Lan's arms, waist, and legs were able to transmit the power to the hammer perfectly, and his body trembled slightly, although he couldn't see the muscle lines hidden under Yin Lan's clothes, he could feel a magical power.
It's different, it's really different!
The old man of the inspector was amazed, this set of forging movements was more standard than a textbook.
And Yin Lan's unique state when refining weapons makes people feel ...... Shock!
Although the old man didn't understand what the reason was, as long as he glanced at Yin Lan, he would be completely attracted, and the frequency of his heart beating would involuntarily be consistent with the rhythm of Yin Lan's swinging of the hammer.
The "bang" sound made by Yin Lan hitting the blue metal block is like hitting the viewer's heart, but this feeling does not make people irritated, but makes the whole body relax and is extremely comfortable, and even looks forward to Yin Lan's next tapping, so that this rhythmic sound that can purify the anger in the heart can continue.
The old man of the inspector suddenly thought of something, and a look of shock suddenly rose on his face: "I heard that a craftsman like the president Ji Yinxuan, when refining a weapon, can reach the realm of entering the gods, and in that state, it is possible to refine an incomparably precious craftsman, is it ...... This Yin Lan can also enter the gods?"
The old man was frightened by his own thoughts, how could the realm of entering the gods, which only a supreme craftsman could comprehend, appear in a first-level refiner who had been cultivated as an apprentice?
But if this is not spirituality, what is it?
How did he know that Yin Lan's state was not a god, but a god!
The so-called "entering the gods" is the union of people and instruments, and if you want to refine precious craftsman, this state is indispensable.
If you can enter the realm of the gods, you can easily distinguish the defects of a piece of metal through the information fed back when the hammer is hit, and grasp every trace of texture inside the metal, as well as the changes of every subtle element, so that these elements and lines can be forged to form the most perfect arrangement.
Among the craftsmen, only the top ones are likely to occasionally have an epiphany and touch the realm of transforming gods, which is unattainable for every craftsman.
As for Yin Lan, he can enter the realm of transforming gods at any time, after all, 48 million years of experience and perception are not blown.
Even, he can reach the realm of "entering the Dao" that is more powerful than the transformation of gods, but his current cultivation is too low, and his perception is sealed and imprisoned by the physical body, and he can't use it.
"This is ......" The embarrassed fat man who was beating the side was attracted by the sound of blows coming from around him and turned his head.
The other contestants who hurried to refine the utensils in a hurry were also puzzled, and couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Yin Lan.
After just one glance, they were all fascinated, and the movements at hand did not stop voluntarily.
Even the arrogant and conceited Guan Hong looked at Yin Lan in a daze.
