Su Ming replaced some materials for refining according to the way of refining the Zhushan Sect Flying Sword, and the speed of refining the low-level flying sword was very fast, and after a while, Su Ming refined a first-order flying sword.

It's just that when Su Ming checked the flying sword, he found that the power of the Thousand Bamboo Sword Array had not increased, but decreased. Although the flying sword has been practiced, after forming a sword formation, it is less powerful than the bamboo sword.

After the failure, Su Ming began to find out the reason, when different materials were refined, the rune ban also needed to be adjusted. Su Ming found that mana did not run as smoothly in the flying sword made of spirit wood as it did in the spirit bamboo. If the spiritual power is not running smoothly, the power of the sword array will naturally decrease.

If you want the mana to work smoothly in this spirit wood, you can only improve the experiment little by little. It's a complicated undertaking. Compared to the spirit wood, Su Ming wanted to use the Thousand Bamboo Sword Array as the carrier of the Hardware Flying Sword or the Starlight Flying Sword.

After trying it a few times, Su Ming found that although the Lingmu Flying Sword had a better texture than the Lingzhu Flying Sword and was not easy to cut and damage, its power was much worse, and what was more serious was that the flight speed was also slow. However, after dozens of improvements, the practical value is not high.

However, these improvements are not all fruitless, he has made some optimizations and improvements to those runic seal moires, making these flying swords more compatible. With this foundation, Su Ming planned to use the metal flying sword to give it a try.

As a result, this time, the flying sword had not yet been refined, and it directly turned into a ball of stubborn iron in the Ding Furnace. Seeing this situation, Su Ming was not disappointed, after all, the failure of modifying the flying sword was originally expected by him.

Next, after Su Ming readjusted the rune ban, he began the experiment again. This time the luck was a little better, the flying sword was in the stage of formation and the ban collapsed, and it failed again.

Su Ming packed up his things and started refining again, but the next situation made him dumbfounded, twenty experiments in a row, none of them succeeded, and even succeeded in refining a flying sword, but there was no sword formation on this flying sword.

The successive failures made him realize that there must be a key point in this that he had overlooked. Su Ming thought about the contents of the book of heaven again, and after carefully going through it a few times, Su Ming finally found the reason. The five elements of the Thousand Bamboo Sword Array belong to wood, and with the help of the endless power of wood.

And Su Ming used hardware to refine the flying sword, which was metallic, and the metallicity just matched the wood attribute, not only could not make the sword array endless, but could not even maintain it.

After figuring out the problem, Su Ming directly gave up using hardware to refine the flying sword. The wood attribute can only be made with spirit wood, or it can be made with the principle of the Five Elements Aquatic Wood to make the water wood attribute, but this difficulty will be higher.

After thinking about it for a while, Su Ming decided to use the Starlight Sword Pill to try, the power of Starlight does not belong to the Five Elements, but it has a lot to do with the Five Elements. After all, the twenty-eight constellations also have the seven Nakshatras of the Eastern Green Dragon. Among them, there are also wood attributes, and the power of starlight itself has no attributes, so this method may be possible.

It is more convenient to use the power of starlight to refine the sword, and even if the power of starlight fails, it can be recovered again, but there is some loss, which is almost negligible compared to the consumption of spirit wood and hardware.

Sure enough, after using the power of the stars to refine the Thousand Bamboo Sword Array, it was much smoother than the hardware, and the first refining was successful. Su Ming controlled the Starlight Flying Sword, and the flying sword was running normally, but the mana consumed was several times more, and at the same time, the power of the sword array was reduced a lot, and it was not even as good as the flying sword made of spirit wood.

Su Ming tried many more times, but there were still various problems that were difficult to solve. After seeing this situation, Su Ming also knew that he could only put it on hold for the time being.

Wasted a lot of materials, although Su Ming did not succeed in carving the Thousand Bamboo Sword Formation on the Starlight Flying Sword, but the principle was much clearer, if he got the right formation diagram, he was seventy percent sure that he would engrave it on the Starlight Flying Sword.

......

Su Ming stayed in Jinling's manor for five full days. When he came out again, the Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Ruler had already been cultivated by the divine soul. He now has the Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Ruler and the Hundred Poison Cold Light Curtain to protect him, so it can be said that as long as he doesn't survive the second Heavenly Tribulation, he can't even break his defensive magic weapon.

With these two treasures, he dared to go to join in the fun in many places, such as the sword fighting in Ciyun Temple. If it had been before, Su Ming had no intention of participating in the peace at all. The system regards the sword fight at Tsz Yun Temple as the player's first large-scale mission.

There are many participants among them, and who knows if the players of the opposing faction will join forces with high-level NPCs to besiege them.

However, the sword fighting in Ciyun Temple is still early, and the beginning of the plot is when the 2.0 version enters and exits the Qing Ming and the player level reaches about level 60.

Su Ming left this time and walked with the black water Jiao, this dragon has become surprisingly lazy since he was subdued, and he sleeps at home every day, Su Ming saw this situation, so he directly lifted him out and prepared to work.

With such a Jindan stage demon beast, it's too wasteful not to use it to help with leveling.

Su Ming doesn't have time to be lazy now, after pocketing the Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Ruler, he now owes 100,000 merits, and this merit is not something you owe as long as you want.

Instead, the 100,000 merits must be returned before the end of the allotted time. In addition, it also takes 100,000 merits to open the seal of this Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Ruler, which means that Su Ming needs 200,000 merit points to unseal the Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Ruler.

The merit value is very important to Su Ming, if his merit value becomes minus 100,000, it is estimated that it will not be long before there will be a heavenly punishment, this heavenly punishment is much more powerful than the heavenly tribulation, and dying once is more serious than the punishment of the heavenly tribulation. So he needs to save up 100,000 merit points as soon as possible.

The best way to earn merit is to slay some powerful demons, but most of them are hiding in their nests and are guarded by many monsters. Of course, you can also kill some demonic monks who have done a lot of evil.

It's a pity that the demon monks are all strong in mana, and their whereabouts are unpredictable, so they can only try their luck, of course, if Su Ming can kill the green-robed ancestor, it will be no problem to earn tens of thousands of merits, but unfortunately he can't beat him, so he can only wait for Xin Chenzi's opportunity to make a plot.

But there are other ways to earn merit points in addition to these. There are many places in the avenue with special natural environment for various reasons, leaving all kinds of hidden dangers, once it erupts, it will be the extinction of people, birds and beasts in the land of thousands of miles, and even the ancient poisonous fire will hook up the Nine Heavens Gang Qi, and directly return that area to the flood wilderness.

If he can eliminate these hidden dangers, or suppress them, he will naturally gain a lot of merit, and his goal this time is one of them.
