Jiang Fengxian didn't know how long it would take to retreat, Zhou Yang naturally wouldn't wait and do nothing.

Although he promised Jiang Fengxian to protect the Dharma for him, it was not good for him to leave Qingyun Yuan before he became a monk, but this did not mean that he had to guard outside his retreat at all times.

With two fifth-order formations inside and outside, even if a Jindan period monk attacks, it is not possible to enter the cave in a moment.

Therefore, Zhou Yang was very relieved to enter the refining hall in Qingyun Yuan, and began to impact the fourth-order mid-grade refiner.

In the past seven years, while he has been concentrating on cultivation and improving his cultivation, his alchemy has not fallen.

Xu Song was not only a rare fifth-order array mage before his death, but also a fifth-order refiner, and over the years, Zhou Yang's alchemy skills had to be personally ordered by him, and he had made rapid progress.

And many refining materials obtained from the storage rings of Duanmu Yong, Lin Ruihua and others also provided a solid foundation for Zhou Yang's practice.

He even used the materials in his hand to rebuild and repair his severed "Dayan Divine Light Sword" back to the furnace.

Up to now, the success rate of his refining fourth-order lower-grade magic weapons has reached three or four percent, and he is fully equipped to impact the fourth-order middle-grade refiners.

In order to make this refining weapon foolproof, Zhou Yang let Xu Song fly out of the "Yunshen Card" and protect and supervise himself on the side.

After Xu Song became a ghost cultivator, his cultivation was lowered to the Purple Mansion Period, and the ghost cultivation in the Purple Mansion Period had not yet condensed the ghost body, and could only use the pitch-black Yin Qi to condense into a form to reveal it to the world.

However, with Xu Song's original foundation of the eighth layer of Jindan, as long as he is given a certain amount of time, it will hardly be a problem to become a ghost cultivator in the Jindan stage in the future.

Moreover, when he himself traveled to the Liuyun Continent to cultivate immortals, he also knew where several yin and evil places with rich yin qi were located, as long as Zhou Yang took him to that yin and evil place at that time, let him absorb the yin qi there to cultivate, and the condensation of the ghost pill was just around the corner.

After everything was ready, Zhou Yang officially opened the furnace and began to refine the furnace.

This time, he was going to refine two magic weapons in a row, and the refining materials were also the "Nether Cat" eyeballs and the "Canglan Cloud Tiger" single horn that he had obtained by killing the demon beasts himself.

The "Nether Cat"'s eyeballs are the carrier of its innate dementor powers, and if this thing is successful in refining magic weapons, it is very likely to retain its dementor powers.

In order to increase the success rate of refining, Zhou Yang followed Xu Song's suggestion and did not use the "Qianyang True Fire" of Zhigang Zhiyang to refine this magic weapon, but used the earth fire in the refining hall.

However, what disappointed him was that although he had been as careful as possible in the refining process, and had prepared various remedies for failure in his mind in advance, this time the refining failed unsatisfactorily.

Originally, it was supposed to be a pair of magic weapons, but in the end, only one of them was barely refined into a magic weapon, and the grade of the magic weapon was also lowered to the upper grade of the third order.

This cat's eye, which was refined into a "soul bead", although it inherited the soul dementorship effect of the "ghost cat", the effect was greatly weakened, and it could only play a role in the soul dementoring of the monks in the foundation building period.

If a foundation-building monk cultivates this magic weapon, when fighting with another foundation-building period monk, as long as the other party does not prepare spiritual runes and treasures such as "soul suppression talismans" in advance, he will basically be defeated.

However, for the Purple Mansion Period monks who established the Purple Mansion Dao Palace, this magic weapon had no effect.

Zhou Yang was a little depressed because of his unfavorable teacher, after all, such a rare material as the "ghost cat" eyeballs was something that could be met but not sought, even with his rich net worth, wasting such a rare material was enough for him to suffer for a while.

It's just that depression is depressed, and the refining tool has to continue.

So he rested for a day or two, summed up the experience of the last failure, and then began the second refining.

This time, with the single horn of the "Canglan Cloud Tiger" as the material refining, he could finally use the "Qianyang True Fire" he was most familiar with to refine the weapon.

In order to succeed in refining this time, he even did not hesitate to add a rare "Heavenly Thunder Stone" as an auxiliary material to the magic weapon, so as to enhance the power of the thunder and lightning supernatural power attached to the magic weapon itself.

After three days of careful refining, Zhou Yang finally succeeded in refining the first fourth-order mid-grade magic weapon in his life, the "Heavenly Thunder Horn".

This "Heavenly Thunder Horn" is definitely a boutique in the fourth-order medium-grade magic weapon, which can not only release thunder and lightning comparable to the fourth-order medium-grade thunder spell to attack the enemy, but also absorb the thunder and lightning spell power released by the enemy, and also has a large-scale group attack spell "Soul Thunder Sound".

The fourth-order mid-grade magic weapon was refined, which meant that Zhou Yang had officially become a fourth-order mid-grade refiner.

But he wasn't content to stop there.

He has even greater ambitions.

I saw that with a wave of his hand, a black jade bottle appeared in his hand.

What was contained in this black jade bottle was the beast soul of the "Canglan Cloud Tiger" that he had killed in the "Cloud Mist".

If a magic weapon above the fourth order integrates the beast soul of a demon beast above the fourth order into it, it is possible to make the magic weapon produce a "instrument soul".

After a magic weapon has a "weapon soul", not only the power of the magic weapon itself will be enhanced, but also the magic power of "instrument soul transformation", making the magic weapon a combat unit that can truly fight independently.

The "Lihuo Vermilion Bird Furnace" in Zhou Yang's hand has a "Weapon Soul", but the "Lihuo Vermilion Bird Furnace" is a refining furnace after all, even if it has a "Weapon Soul", it is not very helpful for fighting methods.

And the "Heavenly Thunder Horn" magic weapon he newly practiced was a pure offensive magic weapon, if this magic weapon could also have a "weapon soul", then the power of this magic weapon in the fighting battle was probably greater than that of some fourth-order high-grade magic weapons.

Roar!

Although it has been falling for more than ten years, with the nourishment of the jade bottle made of "Soul Nourishing Jade", the beast soul of the "Canglan Cloud Tiger" is still the same as when it was first withdrawn.

As soon as Zhou Yang opened the seal of the jade bottle, it roared and came out of the jade bottle with a roar.

However, more than ten years have passed, and although the ferocity of this beast soul is still there, the wisdom is long gone.

"Presumptuous, Zhou can kill you before he dies, let alone a beast soul after death?"

Zhou Yang snorted coldly, pinched the magic technique with both hands, and used a "soul restraint technique" to confine the beast soul in midair.

Then he threw the "Heavenly Thunder Horn" at the beast soul, and the foot-long horn pierced the beast soul at once.

At the same time, he quickly pinched the seal with both hands, and hit one after another spells and fell on the beast soul and magic weapon, forcing the unconscious beast soul to merge into the magic weapon and become the "instrument soul" of the magic weapon.

Roar~Roar!

Although the beast soul does not have the wisdom and spirituality of its life, its instinct is still there, and the instinct of the living soul makes it instinctively resist becoming a "tool soul" of a magic weapon, and it will never be free.

Why is it so difficult for a magic weapon to have a "soul"?

Here's why.

Zhou Yang didn't have any good way to do this, so he could only follow the spirit enchantment recipe recorded in the refining classics, and constantly play the trick to urge the beast soul to integrate into the magic weapon.

Under the persecution of his magic technique, the beast soul did begin to merge with the magic weapon, but this fusion speed was very slow.

And once the fourth-order beast soul leaves the jade bottle made by the "Soul Nourishing Jade", its soul power will continue to dissipate, plus the soul power consumed by its instinctive resistance to Zhou Yang's magic technique, in the end, it is very likely that it will run out of soul power and dissipate before it has completed its fusion with the magic weapon.

Originally, if nothing else, Zhou Yang's "spirit possession" of the magic weapon this time would definitely fail.

But at this time, Xu Song, who had been watching his refining from the sidelines, made a move.

As a pure ghost cultivator, what he is best at is, of course, ghosts.

Although the beast soul of a demon beast does not belong to the ghost category, it is also a kind of soul body, which can be affected by the ghost cultivation of the ghost ghost technique.

Under the interference of Xu Song's pure ghost technique "Soul Confusion Technique", the resistance of the beast soul of the "Canglan Cloud Tiger" to the integration into the "Heavenly Thunder Horn" was weakened a lot, and Zhou Yang also seized the opportunity at this time and increased the persecution.

With the cooperation of this master and servant, the beast soul finally completely integrated into the "Heavenly Thunder Horn" before dissipating, forming a tiger pattern on the horn itself.

"Huh, it's really thanks to Senior Xu's help, otherwise this time it would definitely fail!"

Zhou Yang withdrew the horn, gently reached out and stroked the tiger pattern on it, and thanked Xu Song with a smile of relief.

The difficulty of attaching a magic weapon is indeed unimaginably high, and you must know that the "Heavenly Thunder Horn" is still made of the single horn on the "Canglan Cloud Tiger" as a material.

It is not difficult to imagine how difficult it would be to replace it with a magic weapon made of other materials, and to break the beast soul into it to form a "weapon soul".

He said politely, but Xu Song didn't dare to be arrogant, and hurriedly said humbly: "Zhou Daoyou is polite, the main thing is that this beast soul is only a fourth-order beast soul, if it is replaced by the beast soul of a fifth-order demon beast, it will not have any effect in this [Soul Confusion Technique]. ”

Seeing this, Zhou Yang smiled slightly, and didn't say anything more.

He is still very satisfied with Xu Song's attitude.

has an actual master-servant relationship, and he can be polite to Xu Song and give him a certain amount of respect.

But if Xu Song, who is a ghost servant, really gives a shameless face, kicks his nose in the face and thinks that he can be a bully after helping him, he will not be used to the other party.

Fortunately, it seems that Xu Song is worthy of being a human spirit who has lived for more than 700 years before his death, and he is still very good at grasping these people's sophistication, which makes him very satisfied.

"Go out and see how powerful this artifact is. ”

Immediately, he urged the "Yunshen Card" to let Xu Song return to it to recuperate, and then took the "Heavenly Thunder Horn" outside to test the power of this magic weapon.

The results of the test made Zhou Yang very satisfied.

After exerting the supernatural power of "Instrument Soul Transformation", there was no need for him to take the initiative to command, and the combat power of the "Canglan Cloud Tiger" that came out of his form was comparable to that of a sixth-layer monk in the Purple Mansion.

However, the "Soul Transformation" lasts for a maximum of a quarter of an hour, and when the time is up, it will be beaten back to its original form, and it will take at least half a year to recuperate before it can be used again.

A quarter of an hour is sometimes enough to decide a lot of things, so Zhou Yang doesn't think it's a flaw.

And just as he was testing the power of the magic weapon, a loud eagle cry suddenly sounded from outside the valley basin, and then he only saw a flash of golden light, and a golden giant eagle with a wingspan of more than ten zhang roared and landed in front of Zhou Yang.

This golden giant eagle with a wingspan of more than ten zhang is the pet "Golden-winged Thunder Eagle" domesticated by Zhou Yang.

It's just that at this time, after seven years of growth, the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle has grown into a third-order high-grade demon beast, and has begun to truly have a trace of the majesty of the king of eagles.

Moreover, over the years, Zhou Yang has also slowly taught this smart spirit pet to learn to identify spirit grass and other demon beasts and brute beasts according to Jiang Fengxian's original suggestion, and gave him the right to enter and exit the formation freely, so that he could go to the wild jungle outside to find demon beasts and fight brute beasts to sharpen his strength.

No, now in the claws of the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle, he is holding the corpse of a third-order high-grade snake demon beast.

The eagle snake was originally a natural enemy, and every time the golden-winged thunder eagle went out and brought back the corpse of the prey, three or four times out of ten times it was all kinds of snakes, monsters, monsters and brute beasts, and Zhou Yang was not surprised by this.
