Tianyan Sect has a total of nearly twenty peaks, plus the elders of the main peak, there are many monks in the late stage of Jindan. These peak masters and elders have their own strengths, such as Bian Zhenren of the seventh peak who is good at alchemy, and Lotus Zhenren of the thirteenth peak who likes to practice penance alone

As a great sword cultivator of the ninth layer of Jindan, Ximen He's strength is not weak, but he does not have an independent peak.

His cave is on the main peak.

And the location is relatively remote.

Chen Ping followed the guide disciples through a quiet road and came out of a bamboo forest, only to find that his vision suddenly opened up.

According to the introduction of the disciples, this area is the territory of Ximen Mansion. Walking further, you can see that there are some exclusive refining workshops on both sides of the road, and the disciples are busy inside.

"Senior Brother Ximen can also refine weapons?" Chen Ping asked the guiding disciples around him the doubts in his heart.

"More than that, Elder Ximen is a real refining master." The disciple who led the way talked about Simon Crane, and his face was full of energy:

"Elder Ximen didn't refine weapons before, but since he entered Jindan, as a sword cultivator, he has never been able to find a sword that suits him, so he embarked on the path of refining. Almost every sword used by Elder Simon over the years was from his own hand, or an ancient sword that he had transformed and refined. ”

Chen Ping nodded slightly.

In fact, after the monks who pursued higher levels reached the middle stage of the Jindan, they would choose to learn the path of cultivation.

The reason is very simple, it is not easy to find the natal magic weapon that suits you, and it is not flexible to order it to a special refining sect. If you know how to refine your own weapons, you will be much more flexible, and you can even adjust the function of the magic weapon at any time.

But this is also limited to monks who aspire to the higher.

More monks don't have so much time, energy, and talent to toss, so they will choose to compromise and choose a passable magic weapon as their natal magic weapon.

Ximen Crane is obviously the kind of monk who pursues relatively high.

It's not just about pursuing relatively high.

Along the way, Chen Ping could see that these disciples' refining techniques were quite exquisite. It can be seen that as the disciple who led the way said, Ximen He is quite accomplished in refining weapons.

"Senior Brother Ximen only refines swords?" Along the way, Chen Ping discovered something abnormal, all the refining disciples were refining only one magic weapon, the magic sword.

"That's right, Elder Ximen only refines swords. The elder said that my generation of monks has a limited amount of time in their lives, and it is infinitely better to do one thing to the extreme than to learn only a hundred things. The guiding disciple replied respectfully.

That's true.

But. Except for Chen Ping.

Soon the two came to Ximen Inner Mansion, and after reporting and seeing Ximen He, they led the disciples to leave.

In the living room, the two sat in the position of host and guest, and after Chen Ping saw the gift, he first handed over a demon horn of a third-order demon beast obtained in the Canglan Grassland as a meeting gift to Ximen He.

He and Xiyue have a master-respecting relationship, and they can bother their teachers without scruples.

But Ximen Crane didn't have a half-dime friendship with him.

Now I come to ask for important things, and those who should be courteous still have to be courteous.

Gifts can last for a long time.

Ximen He looked at the demon horn in his hand carefully:

"Senior Brother Chen is lucky, this kind of demon beast doesn't like the breath of the human race, and it is very rare in the habitat of the human race. This demon horn is not very good. Senior Brother Chen is willing? ”

The demon horn is the main offensive weapon of the demon beast, which is equivalent to the magic weapon of the human race, and it itself has the attribute of the magic weapon.

It is usually an excellent material for refining tools.

Chen Ping originally wanted to send a demon pill to Ximen He, but seeing that he was proficient in refining, he temporarily changed it to send a demon horn.

"Senior Brother Ximen laughed, it's just a demon horn. As long as it is useful to Senior Brother Simon. Chen Ping said with a smile.

"Haha, then you're welcome." Ximen Crane pocketed the demon horns.

Chen Ping was recommended by Xiyue, and Ximen He should be treated politely, even if Chen Ping didn't bring Lilly. But after Chen Ping's meeting gift appeared, he had a better impression of Chen Ping and was in a more comfortable mood.

Then there was another pause:

"Oh? I haven't seen him for two years, Senior Brother Chen, this is already in the middle of Jindan? ”

"I just had the honor to marry Dan, but I just came to ask Senior Brother Ximen about the choice of magic weapons for sword cultivation." Chen Ping smiled calmly.

"Hehe, no wonder Uncle Xiyue would take his junior brother as an apprentice. As far as the younger brother's pampered and humiliated heart is concerned, it is worth Uncle Xiyue's action. It's not easy to learn from Uncle Xiyue. Simon Crane smiled.

Thinking of the natal magic weapon mentioned by Chen Ping, Ximen He whispered:

"But Senior Brother Chen is here right today. During this time, Senior Uncle Xiyue was not in Tianyan Sect, otherwise Senior Brother Chen might not be able to see me when he came. ”

"Why is that?" Chen Ping was stunned.

"In the past few years, Uncle Xiyue has looked at me everywhere and punished me for retreat at every turn. I was also puzzled, and I didn't know where I offended my uncle. Now I have to stay away when I see her. When Uncle Shi comes back, my brother will have to inquire about me on the side. "Ximen Crane has palpitations.

Chen Ping:.

Although I don't know why, Xiyue likes to convince people with reason, which is normal.

Chen Ping mourned for Ximen He for two seconds.

"Okay, junior brother try to inquire as much as possible." Chen Ping smiled, changed the topic and asked:

"Senior brother, can you introduce this life magic weapon to junior brother?"

In Ximen He's introduction, Chen Ping learned more information.

After entering the middle stage of Jindan, a new beam of Dan Fire will grow on the Inner Dan, also known as the soul of Danhuo.

After this Dan Fire is formed, it reaches the ability to refine specific magic weapons.

The Jindan monk only needs to place the selected magic weapon in the dantian and use the Dan fire to continuously cultivate the magic weapon, and the natal magic weapon can be formed, and the power will be greatly increased.

"It's not difficult to put a magic weapon into the dantian, you just need to cast a spell according to a specific spell. The hard part is choosing or adapting the right magic weapon. Ximen He took a sip of tea and continued to introduce.

Not all magic weapons can be placed in the dantian, but magic weapons that have been refined by specific means can achieve this goal.

This kind of magic weapon is called 'Danhuo magic weapon'.

There are some high-end and high-grade refining sects that will specialize in refining this kind of magic weapon and enter the market. Through the auction, you may be lucky enough to get this magic weapon.

But this kind of Danhuo magic weapon is usually universal.

There are thousands of avenues, and the situation of each monk is different. The Danhuo magic weapon obtained through this method can also become a natal magic weapon, and the growth will be far less than the tailor-made natal magic weapon.

"According to Senior Brother's meaning, it's best to refine the Danhuo magic weapon by yourself?" Chen Ping asked.

Simon Crane explains in detail:

"That's right. This is also the reason why Senior Brother I never refined weapons before, but Jin Dan also chose to become a refiner after that. ”

"But there are gains and losses. Becoming a refiner is a very time-consuming and labor-intensive task, and becoming a good refiner is even more so, it often takes decades, or even hundreds of years, to become a good refiner, and it depends on talent. ”

"It is precisely because of this that when the vast majority of monks choose their natal magic weapons, they are willing to go to the auction to bid for the ready-made Danhuo magic weapons."

He explained the pros and cons of each link as fairly and justly as possible in order to mislead Chen Ping.

After all, not every monk has such a gift.

After listening to Ximen He's explanation, Chen Ping was thoughtful.

'It's hard to become an alchemist, but for me, I have an advantage, and if I just learn a single alchemy, it shouldn't take too much time. ’

'Instead of going to the auction to bid for an ordinary Danhuo magic weapon. Self-refining is obviously more appropriate, it is a long-term profitable process, and it is worth paying for at the moment. ’

"Has Senior Brother Chen ever refined a weapon before?" Ximen He's voice interrupted Chen Ping's thoughts.

"Never." Chen Ping shook his head:

"But now that I'm in the middle of Jindan, I also want to understand the way of refining weapons. Dare to ask Senior Brother Ximen, what is the importance of refining this Danhuo magic weapon? ”

Ximen He sorted out his thoughts:

"The most difficult part of refining is that there are two aspects, one is to obtain the refining book, and the other is to obtain the refining materials. Neither of these aspects is easy, and you have to pay attention to chance. Therefore, if you can have some magic weapons yourself, it is the best shortcut to transform on this basis. ”

After a pause, he added:

"Of course, if the junior brother wants to refine the sword intent magic weapon, I have some books here to provide to the junior disciple."

Chen Ping immediately thanked him.

The more high-end the magic weapon, the more difficult it is to obtain the materials for refining.

Some refiners are obsessed with a certain kind of magic weapon, and do not hesitate to go deep into various dangers to obtain materials, such as the inner bones of rare demon beasts, etc., and even end up dead.

And such materials are often priceless, rarely appear on the market, and money may not be able to buy them.

Chen Ping thought about it and continued to ask:

"On the basis of the choice of the natal magic weapon, what is the way to distinguish it?"

The implication is that in these thousands of worlds, there are countless types of magic weapons, how can you judge what kind of magic weapons you are suitable for?

Simon Crane thought for a moment:

"The choice of natal magic weapon mainly depends on two aspects. One is the monk's own talent and strengths. The second is the pros and cons of the magic weapons that can be obtained. ”

The first aspect is to look at the monks themselves.

For example, Ximen He's sword cultivation, his advantage and talent lie in the sword. So for Ximen He, he doesn't need to think too much about it when choosing his natal magic weapon.

Just choose the magic sword.

The only thing to consider is to get a magic sword that is strong enough.

The sword repair road to the north is somewhat similar.

Some talisman masters may even choose to place a talisman in the dantian to become a natal magic weapon.

The second aspect is Guanbao.

Some monks themselves do not have particularly outstanding strengths. Especially for some spell cultivation, all kinds of spells can be a little, but they are not too peak.

This kind of monk is actually the majority.

In this case, it is more about the merits of the Danhuo magic weapon that can be obtained. For example, I bid for a very ordinary magic weapon, and then I got an ancient high-quality magic weapon by chance.

There is no doubt that choosing the second one as the natal magic weapon is the best choice.

"Other than that, the natal magic weapon is not easy to be too complicated. The more singular the better, and the easier it is to raise to the level of horror. This is also the reason why sword cultivation can often break ten thousand laws with one method. Simon Crane added.

Chen Ping was clear.

Instead of starting from scratch and overcoming many difficulties to find raw materials to refine a new magic weapon, it is better to transform the existing magic weapon.

At least the risk left for the sake of the material.

There are only two good weapons that he can really get his hands on now.

One of them is the Seven-Star Dragon Yuan Sword.

The second is the Soul Whip.

The soul whip is an ordinary magic weapon, and it is not worth cultivating this life magic weapon.

From this point of view, the only option is the Seven-Star Dragon Yuan Sword.

Of course, you can go to the market and continue to buy magic weapons. But there is a high probability that it can be bought at auction is not as good as the Seven-Star Dragon Yuan Sword.

This is a rare ancient treasure of soul slayer.

After Chen Ping figured this out, he asked:

"Senior Brother Ximen, Senior Brother has thought about it again and again, and still wants to try refining his natal magic weapon. So I want to ask my brother for two things. ”

"Haha, I knew that my junior brother would make this choice. With this unwilling mediocrity, you can eventually achieve great things. What do you want? Let's talk about it. Ximen Crane put down the teacup with a snap and said in a loud voice.

It doesn't matter if it doesn't make a big deal or not.

I just want to live forever.

Chen Ping smiled:

"Senior brother has a good reputation, whether he can succeed or not depends on two words, but if you don't try, you will have regrets in your heart."

"Senior brother wants to ask for two things, one is to learn the way of refining weapons from senior brother. Second, he wanted to ask his senior brother for a book of refining of the sword intent magic weapon. ”

"Oh? It seems that Senior Brother Chen is going to choose sword cultivation? It's gratifying, haha, Tianyan Sect has one more sword cultivator in the future. Everything that the junior and the younger brother ask for is a small matter. Simon Crane waved his hand:

"The art of alchemy can be learned at any time. As for refining the sword intent magic weapon, Senior Brother Chen could make a decision after reading the summary book in the library of the mansion. ”

Chen Ping hurriedly thanked him.

He knew that the reason why Ximen He was so good at talking was not because of his own reasons, but because he was Xiyue's apprentice.

It was recommended by Xiyue.

“.”

After the exchange ended, Chen Ping did not leave, but immediately began to practice the cultivator.

Because Chen Ping is a beginner, it is not the turn of a refining master like Ximen He to take action in person. Therefore, Ximen He handed over Chen Ping to a refining workshop in his mansion and was taught by his eldest disciple.

Ximen He's eldest disciple is also a Jindan monk, and his cultivation is similar to Chen Ping's, and he is in the middle of Jindan.

"I'm waiting for this Ximen Mansion to only refine swords. Since Master Chen had no experience in refining weapons in the past, how about I start self-cultivation from the first-order magic sword? Brother Yang suggested.

Hearing the title of Monk Yang, Chen Ping couldn't laugh or cry.

"I am similar to Yang Daoyou's cultivation, Yang Daoyou don't have to stick to red tape, just be commensurate with Daoyou."

Brother Yang smiled:

"Since Chen Daoyou said so, then I'm not welcome. In the future, he will be commensurate with Taoist friends. ”

Next, he began to explain the essence of refining to Chen Ping, and at the same time began to guide Chen Ping to refine the instrument.

The refining of the first-order magic sword is relatively simple.

The substrate can be bought on the market, and of course, this refining workshop also refines itself.

Chen Ping first roughly learned the refining of substrates (i.e., striking iron).

Then I began to practice the core part, which is to depict the forbidden pattern on the baseboard.

"When refining magic weapons, there are three kinds of flames that can be used. One is the fire of the spark, and the other is the fire of the earth. The third is Danhuo. ”

"There is a progressive relationship between the three. The Spark Stone Fire is the worst, and the Dan Fire is the best. However, if all the magic weapons are refined with Danhuo, it will inevitably outweigh the losses, and Danhuo is a very precious thing. Therefore, the best way to refine it is to combine the earth fire with the Dan fire. ”

"This is the reason why Master did not monopolize a peak and become the peak master. Because this place is the best place for the Tianyan Sect to fire the earth. The earth fire here is also called the fire of the goblins. ”

“.”
