Chapter 20: The Sword Furnace
Mo Jiangnan is also a self-aware person, and since he came into contact with Xiuzhen, someone has told him a fact, that is, his qualifications are very poor, so bad that anyone who sees them shakes their heads. So he is very reluctant to cause trouble, especially in the world of cultivators, where he is at the bottom, barely a cultivator, and it seems that anyone can suppress him in this world that emphasizes strength.
Therefore, he very much wanted to refuse this challenge, even if he cultivated for another few decades or hundreds of years, the gap with these people would only widen. His poor qualifications determined that he had a low starting point and a slow speed, although he still didn't understand what qualifications were.
But now he is very reluctant to refuse, because he can use the sword furnace after accepting this challenge, the temptation for a person like him is very huge, if he wants to go down the road of refining, he must rely on the sword furnace, because his true yuan and divine sense are very weak, it is impossible to refine anytime and anywhere like the legendary master, he refines the weapon to fulfill his wishes.
Originally, he didn't care about the outcome of the competition, his purpose was to observe the sword furnace, but he was very reluctant to fail in front of Xiao Yun, even if this failure didn't matter to him, but he didn't want to be here at this time.
The facts made Mo Jiangnan helpless, he felt that he was just a rookie who had just debuted, and he had no chance of winning in front of Lao Jianghu, from the beginning he gritted his teeth and told himself to be strong in order to bear the fate of the next failure.
At noon, I went back to the city and had a meal, the luxurious restaurant was the property of the Zhao family, and after the meal, everyone was led to a large villa villa on the outskirts of the city, which is an important base of the Zhao family, the place is remote and quiet, and it is said that the place is also a spiritual vein.
Mo Jiangnan sighed all the way that the Xiuzhen family has a big business, their ability is much stronger than ordinary people, and they have a long family history to accumulate, ordinary people are indeed incomparable. The Xiuzhen family accumulates in the world, and they also live a low-key life in the world, and their goal is not the secular stage, but the ethereal Xiuzhen, so they don't pay much attention to the accumulation of money, thinking that it is just a means to achieve the end.
Since Mo Jiangnan saw Xiao Yun again, she has been intimately with Hong Tiansheng, and she seems to have a very speculative chat with that mysterious master. It seems that things are gathered by like, Mo Jiangnan can see that that Hong Tiansheng is obviously the leader of the younger generation in the Xiuzhen family, and Xiao Yun is even more talented, and he has reached a very terrifying realm not long after leaving Mo Jiangnan.
It's okay like this, so that you won't bury her with yourself.
Thinking like this, Mo Jiangnan was caught in the crowd and walked into the basement of the villa.
The basement is very deep, and the crowd walked down for five minutes to come to an unusually spacious place, where the Zhao family put a lot of effort into it, even if so many people are crowded underground, they will not feel suffocated, and the lights will not make people feel oppressed.
But soon Mo Jiangnan's mind was attracted by a huge Ding furnace, which was a hexagonal metal container about four meters high, the middle and lower parts seemed to have been burned for many years, and only the upper part of the container shimmered with a slight metallic luster. The large container was lifted up by a thick pillar below, half a meter above the ground, and the thick pillar was also jet black and could not be seen.
On the surface of the Ding furnace, there was a strange spell-like bump.
On the ground around the container, there are six dragon-shaped sculptures lying on their stomachs, one on each side of the hexagon, each of which is more than two meters long, with fangs and claws lifelike, and its big mouth fiercely opens towards the big Ding furnace, only a few dozen centimeters away from the Ding furnace.
Behind the furnace was a high platform, about the same height as the furnace, with a staircase leading to it.
"This is where our Zhao family refines weapons, and this sword furnace is also handed down by our Zhao family's benefactors." Elder Zhao introduced it to everyone, and while looking at Dao Zheng, he said, "I'm afraid that you Kunlun won't need this thing for a long time, and the real grandmaster can refine the weapon in his hand." ”
Dao Zheng responded: "Refining weapons in your hands is also a way of cultivation, the master taught us to hone our cultivation anytime and anywhere, in fact, simply in terms of refining weapons, we are not limited to the way, to refine the peerless divine weapon Kunlun's elders still rely on the sword furnace, the real divine weapon requires a lot of divine thought, not a short time can be created, so without the sword furnace, the true yuan may not be able to support it for a long time." ”
Everyone was listening carefully, for fear that this famous disciple would be missed if he revealed something.
Dao Zheng suddenly found that people were listening carefully, so he said: "Actually, I am also not proficient in learning, how profound the Kunlun refining technique is, I only know a little about the skin." ”
"Haha, let's start our main event then." Zhao Lao smiled heartily again, "The emphasis is on communication, this is our theme today, and I blame that I didn't think of it in advance, otherwise I would have arranged the show of live refining a long time ago, who will come first now?" ”
"I'm coming!" Lao Zhang Yingsheng stepped forward.
"Lao Zhang is worthy of being the number one refining master in the family, and he has bearing!" Zhao Lao praised.
Compared with the refining weapon, it is not a race, of course, the race is the first to start, and the refining weapon who starts first is passive, because everyone has their own characteristics, and it is easy to be discovered by the opponent and take targeted measures in full view. For example, if you are proficient in formation, I will not compare the formation with you, compare the refining method, your means are superior, I will compare the true element control with you, compare the divine sense, in short, there is a great chance to find a brilliant place.
Lao Zhang walked out proudly like this, naturally he was very confident in himself, Mo Jiangnan didn't expect that he would still have the title of the number one refining master of the Xiuzhen family, and he thought that today he was afraid that he would embarrass the old ancestor.
"The fire of this sword furnace is brought up from a place three thousand feet underground, which is enough for you to smelt materials." Zhao Lao pointed to the side again and said, "There are all kinds of materials placed in the warehouse on this side, and today you can use them casually for your on-site refining, and you can compare your eyesight by the way." ”
"Then I'll get started." Lao Zhang said and walked into the warehouse.
It didn't take long to see Lao Zhang Piaoran out, holding a piece of gray-orange metal the size of a watermelon in one hand, and a white bead the size of a pigeon's egg in the other, walking towards the high platform behind the Ding furnace with a confident smile.
"That's the black copper and the cold dewdrops, such good things are also useful in Lao Zhang's hands." Zhao Lao introduced with a smile.
What does this mean that when it comes to my hands, it will destroy the heavens? Mo Jiangnan thought depressedly.
"Everybody's optimistic." Lao Zhang sat down cross-legged calmly, and pressed some mechanism on the high platform with his hand, only to see the six dragons on the ground flash red light from their mouths, and a strong heat wave immediately raged in this spacious underground, if the ordinary people present would not be able to resist the heat and run out.
It didn't take long for the bottom of the Ding furnace to be roasted red by the red light in the dragon's mouth, and there was not a single flame to be seen, and Mo Jiangnan was amazed. In fact, the people around him are the same, and how many people have seen such a scene.
Lao Zhang saw that the time had come, and shouted: "Open!" It seemed that there was a scorching heat on the closed Ding furnace, and the roasting space seemed to be distorted, and Lao Zhang threw the prepared black copper into the Ding furnace when he saw the situation.
"Off!" As Lao Zhang's shouting, the Ding Furnace was closed again, and he pressed on the Ding Furnace with one hand to urge Zhenyuan.
That's it? I can't see anything. Mo Jiangnan thought boredly, but found that the people around him were still looking intently, these people were really curious, obviously the refining weapon would be completed in the Ding furnace, and the spells around the Ding furnace flickered and dimmed.
Suddenly, Mo Jiangnan's divine sense noticed that there was something unusual in the bag he was carrying, and then suddenly a woman's figure appeared in front of him, and it turned out to be a plain face that he hadn't seen for a long time!
"Why did you get out?" Mo Jiangnan suddenly shouted.
Su Yan hurriedly made a silent posture, but her voice sounded in Mo Jiangnan's mind: "They can't see me, let's spread the sound and speak." ”
Mo Jiangnan shook his head helplessly.
"You don't know how to transmit?"
Mo Jiangnan nodded.
"I really don't know how you mix it, even the martial arts masters of the day after tomorrow can transmit the sound." Su Yan also looked helpless, "Fortunately, it's not difficult to learn, I'll teach you right away." ”
So Mo Jiangnan learned to transmit sound.
"I don't have time to learn these spells." Mo Jiangnan said, "Why did you come out, I thought you were going to disappear for a long time." ”
Su Yan looked at the situation next to her and asked what was going on, and Mo Jiangnan told her about it.
"Anyway, I'm also an immortal, what is their level, what kind of refining weapons, formations, even immortal arrays, what do cultivators like them know." After listening to it, Su Yan was very disdainful. "Ignore them, I'll teach you later."
"Don't be later, talk to me now." Mojiang South Express Road.
"Now? You think you used to take exams in school, and you just need to fill in the answers, but the formation alone is complicated. ”
"Then tell me how the golden essence did it." Mo Jiangnan said.
"That's not easy." A flower appeared in his hand without makeup, of course, this paper is not a physical object, "You see, I drew a flower on the paper, which is equivalent to carving a formation in the material." As for the gold essence, it is equivalent to a large piece of paper. ”
Su Yan conjured up a larger piece of paper with a larger flower drawn on it, "The flower on this big paper is a big array." ”
Mo Jiangnan was puzzled: "The problem is that these two pieces of paper must be the same size." ”
Su Yan showed a charming smile, folded the big piece of paper, and folded it to the same size as the other: "Isn't this the same size?" ”
Mo Jiangnan was stunned for a long time, just showing a little excitement, but frowned again: "Space folding? How? ”
"Formation." Plain explanation simply.
"Teach me this formation first." Mo Jiangnan was excited.
"Immediately? Do you know how long it took me to learn this? It's even harder to say about your qualifications. Su Yan said angrily.
"It's okay, I have a way." Mo Jiangnan immediately took out his laptop and turned it on quickly, "You are a divine body, you can easily carve it out in my hard drive, I have my own way to use it." ”
Su Yan looked at Mo Jiangnan suspiciously, of course she knew about computers after traveling on Earth, but she couldn't figure out how Mo Jiangnan would use them.
"Then I'll engrave all the formations I know."
"That's better, but you have to mark it clearly and write a good description, or I won't be able to figure out which is right and which."
The warm applause woke up Mo Jiangnan, who was squatting on the ground and playing with the computer, he quickly closed the computer, stood up and saw what was happening, it turned out that the old Zhang refining device had been completed. In fact, it doesn't take a long time for ordinary refining weapons, what seventy-seven forty-nine days, ninety-nine eighty-one days is something that only a master can do, and only the master's divine sense can support it for so long, and the average cultivator is afraid that he will be exhausted in a few hours, let alone the cultivation family.
"Let's take it first."
Lao Zhang walked straight over and handed his work to Mo Jiangnan, with the meaning in his eyes that made him retreat.
It was a golden shield, Mo Jiangnan carefully swam around it with Zhenyuan, and found that in addition to the Spirit Gathering Array, it was a formation that he had never seen before, and it was estimated that it was a defensive formation. In addition to the copper that can be seen, there is a cold aura that builds the formation inside, which is estimated to be the thing called the cold dew just now, which seems to be combined with metal copper to form a bond.
However, the formation is quite weird, judging from the structure next to it, it seems to be deformed, could it be that this old man wants to let himself? Mo Jiangnan was a little stunned, not to mention the factor of the formation, this process is better than him in combination with the computer.
Seeing Mo Jiangnan in a daze, Zhao Lao said with a smile on the side: "When it comes to refining weapons, all of us have to consult Lao Zhang." ”
Listening to that means that Mo Jiangnan's loss under Lao Zhang is not wronged, but although Mo Jiangnan usually looks kind, he is the successor of the Mo family's craftsmanship. It's okay to compare with others or talk about it, but now he is halfway through the competition, and his ancestors have inherited a tendon, this is his own field, and he is the strongest in this field.
So Mo Jiangnan returned the shield to Lao Zhang's hand, and said calmly: "If I lose to you today, I will admit that I have embarrassed my ancestors." ”
