Chapter Twenty-Eight: The First Refining
Luo Tian waited for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to try to refine the weapon. The refiner told him that the most important thing was to have a stable state of mind and not be impatient. In this way, it can withstand the beating again and again, and it can be said that it is also a kind of exercise for patience.
Until now, Luo didn't realize the good intentions of Tong Lao. He didn't ask Luo Tian to take the pill at the beginning, but told him that he had to pass the test before he could take the pill.
It can be said that Tong Lao lied to Luo Tian at the beginning. Taking the myelin cleansing pill depends on the chance. Of course, there are other aspects that have an impact on success, but a person's determination is what matters.
The reason why Tong Lao let Luo Tian practice for three years before breaking through to the innate pure body was to cultivate his precious qualities in cultivation. Now that he had come here, he realized what Master meant by that sentence at the beginning.
Tong Lao once told Luo Tian that the cultivation of strength, speed, endurance, etc., which he had been asked to carry out in the past, was a never-ending practice. As the realm improves, that feeling will become stronger and stronger.
"It's still the master who is amazing, he has already laid such a solid foundation for me!" Luo Tian sighed, and then picked up a piece of red iron and threw it into the furnace. Looking at the iron that was gradually turning red, Luo Tian was also a little excited.
When the iron had turned completely red, he took out the red iron like a gourd. Then he picked up a sledgehammer and began to build it with a clang. Luo Tian's hammer was carefully tempered by turning the true qi. I don't know how long it took, but he only felt soaked with sweat all over his body before he made this red iron into a general appearance.
Luo Tian was not impatient, still holding the sledgehammer steadily, hammering one hammer after another. After a long time, I don't know if it was because the temperature was too high by the fire, or because he was too tired, but I saw his sweat raining down. Murong Zhenren also nodded slightly when he saw Luo Tian like this.
He originally thought that Luo Tian only wanted to learn refining weapons out of curiosity. But now it is discovered that this Luo Tian is worthy of being an alchemist. He is delicate and cautious, and he is not in a hurry to do things, but he is a good seedling to learn refining.
The most important thing is that Luo Tian is not afraid of hardship, let alone tiredness. Like an apprentice who learns to refine weapons, he is covered in stinky sweat at every turn, and many monks would rather spend this time on cultivation than spend their energy on a piece of metal over and over again!
After tempering for a long time, he has initially created the appearance of an iron ruler. Then he poured the molten black iron water on the iron ruler. Waiting for the iron ruler to be covered with dark iron, he began to temper it repeatedly.
It wasn't until finally, when the dark iron and the red iron finally became one, that he stopped tempering. In the middle, in order to maintain the softness of the red iron, it was necessary to keep heating, and Luo Tian finally realized that this refining tool was not easy, and it was really more tiring than alchemy.
Seeing that the prototype of the iron ruler had been formed, Luo Tian knew that it was time to quench. Although the most important process is tempering, only after this quenching will we know whether it will succeed or fail. Luo Tian breathed a sigh of relief, then clamped the iron ruler with the tongs and put the iron ruler into the water tank.
At this time, you should pay attention, you can't rush it, and you have to wait for the iron ruler to lower to a certain temperature before you can put it in. If the temperature is too high, it is easy to cause explosions. If the temperature is too low, it may not be able to strengthen. Luo Tian slowly waited for the iron ruler to turn from red to light red, and then slowly put it into the water.
Looking at the bubbling water tank, Luo Tian's heart also rose to his throat. But after a long time, there were no cracks in the iron ruler, which shows that Luo Tian has succeeded! Although this iron ruler can't even be called a low-grade magic weapon, it is also commendable that Luo Tian can succeed in building it for the first time!
"It's amazing, it's amazing!" I saw that Murong Zhenren give a thumbs up. He had never seen a monk who could be so successful in refining a weapon for the first time.
"Well, it's just a fluke. Senior Murong, what do you think I have built?" Luo Tian said as he took out the iron ruler from the water tank, and then handed it into Murong Zhenren's hands.
"Well, yes, at least fifty percent of me looks. However, the refining process focuses on self-study, and in the future, you can't just imitate me, you have to have your own ideas. Murong Zhenren said.
"Fifty percent, is it that good, then does this belong to the inferior magic weapon?" Luo Tian asked excitedly.
Hearing Luo Tian say this, Murong Zhenren was happy. The fifty percent appearance he said was just the shape of an iron ruler, and as for the internal strength and toughness, it was far from perfect.
He told Luo Tian that this iron ruler could only be regarded as an ordinary blade, and if he wanted to create a low-grade magic weapon, he still lacked too much heat. Like Murong Zhenren's apprentice, he has been following him for more than three years, but he has never let him refine any magic weapons.
The refiner is honed with a hammer. Only in the midst of thousands of hammers and chisels can we realize the true meaning of refining. Luo Tian was not discouraged when he heard this, at least he took the first step. It's a good start for him.
After all, he didn't specialize in refining weapons, he still had to practice, and he also had to study the way of alchemy. Luo Tian couldn't wait to have a few more of himself at this time and study these aspects separately. He only felt that although he had a lifespan of hundreds of years, there were too many things to learn, and there was simply not enough time.
"Senior, I'm going to leave this place in a few days, and I'm going to bother you a lot in the next few days. Thank you for your guidance!" Luo Tian said politely.
"Hehe, you're welcome, you gave me this top-grade pill, but it's worth hundreds of medium-grade Yuan Stones. Even if it is enough to buy a superb magic weapon, I will just teach you some introductory skills of refining. I only heard Murong Zhenren say modestly.
When Luo Tian heard this, he also felt that this Murong Zhenren was good, but it was a pity that he could only study with the other party for a few days, otherwise Luo Tian really wanted to concentrate on learning refining weapons.
"The junior came out this time to participate in the alchemist conference in the imperial capital, so I can only ask you for advice for a few days, so I can't avoid some regrets. Luo Tian also said helplessly.
Hearing that Luo Tian was going to participate in the Alchemist Conference, this Murong Zhenren also admired him very much. The monks who can participate in the alchemist conference are all alchemy geniuses. It seems that this Luo Tian Daoist will definitely become a powerful figure in the future.
"Luo Daoyou, in fact, in addition to these, I also have a secret book of refining weapons, which was given to me by that master's senior. He said that as long as I study carefully, I will definitely become a middle-grade refiner in the future. However, I have been stupid and have worked for decades without success. Seeing that Luo Daoyou is so talented, I will lend you a copy of this secret book, which can be regarded as a good acquaintance. I just listened to Murong Zhenren's sincere words.
"Oh, the master's refining cheats, then the junior is welcome. What other elixir needs do the seniors have? As long as it is an elixir below the third order, I can refine it for you. Luo Tian also said happily. The so-called peach is the case, and the reward is the same.
"Hehe, there's no need, the master said that this cheats are only given to those who are destined. Since I don't have a chance to break through, it's better to become a Taoist friend. In the future, if Taoist friends soar into the sky, they can not forget jì below. "Just listen to what Murong Zhenren said.
Hearing that the other party was so sincere, Luo Tian couldn't say anything. In that case, those two are good friends. However, this Murong Zhenren doesn't seem to want to reveal his life experience, and Luo Tian is not easy to ask. As for himself, he told the other party that he was from the Luo family in Luoguo, and if he had any needs, he could also go to Luoguo to find him.
Now that Luoguo has opened the teleportation formation, as long as he is willing to give up the Yuanshi, then going back and forth between Ancheng and Luoguo is a matter of blink of an eye, which is as easy as neighbors visiting the door. Therefore, when that Murong Zhenren heard that Luo Tian's hometown was Luoguo, he also felt that it was much more convenient to come and go.
In this way, Luo Tian followed this Murong Zhenren and learned some refining techniques. And Luo Tian also got the manuscript of the refining secret book. Now he didn't have time to look through it, because at this moment, Luo Tian didn't even count as an entry into refining, so how could he understand the refining cheats.
Time is very fast, and now it is the day of Qin Mubai's wedding. Luo Tian stopped going to the blacksmith shop to learn alchemy, and stayed in Pingxi Houfu. I have to say that this Qin Mubai's wedding is really luxurious. In each room of the largest reception hall, a banquet is arranged. Qin Mubai was so busy that he didn't have time to take care of Luo Tian.
Of course, Luo Tian can understand this, the so-called candle night in the cave room, when the gold list is inscribed. Although they are the happiest and joyiest times, they are also the busiest times. Luo Tian took Bai Ling'er and sat leisurely in a secluded corner of the huge square, watching the endless crowd of people coming and going.
From morning to noon, there was a long line of monks who came to congratulate them. Luo Tian and Bai Ling'er were dumbfounded. With so many people, it is estimated that the banquet arranged by Pingxi Hou Mansion may not be enough.
Later, I learned that the Hou Mansion was in Ancheng and had contracted many large restaurants. Those less important guests were arranged to the restaurant. Most of the people in Pingxi Houfu are above the Ning Yuan Realm, and they are all people with a certain strength and power.
In the early morning, Qin Mubai greeted the guests at the door. It wasn't until after noon that there were far fewer people giving congratulatory gifts. He greeted all the distinguished guests, and there were a few Danyuan Realm monks beside him. They were responsible for receiving congratulatory gifts, arranging for monks to enter the banquets of dignitaries, or sending guests to the restaurant.
"Hehe, Brother Qin, aren't you very excited to get married. Luo Tian took Bai Ling'er to see Qin Mubai. When Qin Mubai saw Luo Tian and Bai Ling'er's leisurely appearance, he was really a little envious.
"Brother Luo, come and stay with me for a while, it's really boring here. My father arranged for me to have a three-day banquet, and it was my life. I only heard Qin Mubai say helplessly.
"Haha, who's with you, who makes you want to be with someone. I won't accompany you to suffer here, go, Ling'er, and go with me to drink happy wine. Luo Tian teased.
Qin Mubai was embarrassed for a while when he heard this, this is still the best brother, no, he didn't even help himself. However, Luo Tian's ridicule made him feel much better. The mood has just improved a lot, but I heard another person calling for a guest at the door. When Qin Mubai heard this, he could only hurriedly go out to greet the guests.
"Uncle Seven, you are here, please inside. Qin Mubai said.
Generally, only important guests come and there will be shouting outside the door. As long as he hears the sound, Qin Mubai must go out to wait, which is also the etiquette of the Pingxi Hou Mansion.
Luo Tian saw Qin Mubai's busy appearance, and seemed to think of what it would be like if his father held a wedding banquet for him.
When he saw Qin Mubai's miserable appearance, he hurriedly shook his head. It's so tired and annoying, even the monks feel very sad, so it's better to be alone all the time.
