Chapter Ninety-Eight: Trying to Refine the Weapon

Lixia's door-picking attribute attacked, and he was reluctant to sell it, and he was going to sell it after bringing it to the Central Plains Continent, and now it just came in handy.

Before, I was worried that refining weapons would be too difficult and I wouldn't be able to learn them by myself, so I only bought jade slips and came back, and didn't buy refining furnaces and forging tables, but now Lixia feels that refining simple magic weapons shouldn't be very difficult.

And he had enough materials to practice, so he went out and bought a refining furnace and a forging table again.

And Lixia has been in and out a few times in the past few days, Biluo's door has not been opened, and there has been no movement, Lixia thought of Biluo's previous attitude, so he didn't use his hot face to stick his cold ass.

Returning to his room, meditating and pranayama to return to the best state, Lixia took out a fish bone of a first-order early sea fish, suspended it in front of him with divine sense control, and forced out a spiritual fire in the palms of both hands, slowly turning from a small flame into a fireball, enveloping the entire fish bone.

Since it is the lowest-level refining material, Lixia is now a monk in the foundation building period after all, so it is not difficult to smelt, but he carefully controls the spiritual fire and evenly wraps the fish bones.

The fishbone was quickly melted into a liquid state, and Lixia's divine sense controlled the liquid material in his hand, causing it to keep churning, striving for every part to be flexibly burned, and removing as many weights as possible.

Finally, the black spots in the liquid state decreased little by little, and Lixia controlled it with his divine sense to separate it into a uniform mass of liquid, and finally slowly elongated into long strips.

Then put away the spiritual fire, and threw the preliminarily formed fish bones into the bucket next to them to cool and quench.

The water in the bucket is the cold stone water in the cold stone pool outside the city, and the temperature is obviously lower than ordinary ice cubes, but it is still in the form of water, but except for the low temperature, I have not found anything special for the time being.

After the initial shape of the smelting is finalized at the time of refining, it needs to be cooled quickly to increase the strength and hardness, and some monks have discovered that this cold stone water can just be used to quench the embryo of the preliminary smelting.

Therefore, many refining cultivators collected a lot of cold stone water to prepare for refining the embryo of the magic weapon, but later found that as long as the cold stone water left the cold stone pool, after seven days, the cold qi would automatically disappear.

Therefore, it is useless to prepare more, you can only take it as you go, but it is also a trouble to run outside the city to get it every time you use it, so there are little monks in the city who specialize in running errands every day to bring cold stone water back to the city to sell, and a bucket only needs a spirit stone, which can be used for three days.

Except for the large refining shops that send people out of the city every three days to collect cold stone water, the small refining shops or the refiners in the casual cultivation are all bought on the street.

Even some well-known friars would come to the door every once in a while to ask if they needed it.

This is a small profit, and the big stores don't bother to compete with them.

When Lixia first arrived, he didn't know this, but he only knew about it when he went out to buy a refining furnace and a forging table again, and he ran into Xiao Liuzi, and this cold stone water was also bought from Xiao Liuzi.

Sure enough, the slender fishbones were thrown down, and they cooled down in a moment, and as soon as their consciousness moved, the slender fishbones flew out of the bucket and placed them on the forging table.

Lixia picked up a small hammer that was small but heavy, and stepped forward and pounded it one by one.

As the hammer thrashed one by one, beads of sweat gradually appeared on Lixia's forehead, but looking at the needle-shaped fishbones that could gradually be seen under the hammer, Lixia's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he thrashed harder, and he didn't feel tired at all.

After beating for half an hour, three thousand six hundred strokes, Lixia stopped, looking at the ivory-white fishbone needles on the forging table, and was very excited.

As long as the spirit is successfully attached, this is a magic weapon.

Although forging pays attention to thousands of tempering, in fact, the degree of forging required for different levels of magic weapons and magic weapons is also different, and such a low-level material cannot withstand thousands of tempering.

A thousand hammers are one refining, a hundred refining is 100,000 hammers, three refining is enough for low-grade magic weapons, six refining is required for medium-grade magic weapons, nine refining is required for high-grade magic weapons, and ten refining is required for top-grade magic weapons.

And the magic weapon needs to be refined even if it is a lower grade, and the middle grade and the upper grade are not determined by tempering, but also depend on the materials and refining techniques, as well as the final possession.

If it is an immortal weapon, it needs to be refined at least, and under the premise that the material can withstand it, the more times it is tempered, the fewer impurities, and the higher the quality of the magic weapon that may be refined.

And Lixia used the fish bone of the early stage of the first order, which can only refine the lower-grade magic weapon, and it is only for the practice, and there is no need to beat it too finely, as long as it can carry the formation and runes.

However, formations and runes were originally Lixia's weaknesses, not to mention the formation and runes carved on flying needles with a very limited range of casting.

Lixia was a little hesitant, thinking that it would be good if he had Biluo's formation talent, but unfortunately people can't take all the good things, his alchemy talent is already very good, and he can't force anything else.

Fortunately, just carving formations and runes doesn't require much depth of formation attainment, as long as you practice a lot, you will always succeed.

Lixia looked at the nine fishbone needles left on the forging table, and he really didn't have the confidence that he could successfully carve the runes before the nine fishbone needles were used up.

So with a wave of his hand, he put the fishbone needle in a jade box, took out a low-grade fishbone again, and started the process of smelting and forging again.

In this way, becoming more and more proficient, Lixia can forge more and more fishbone needles at one time, and the last time it can actually forge dozens of needles.

In three days, Lixia was tired and went into the space to tidy up the Lingtian, came out and continued, and in three days, more than a thousand fishbone needles were forged, and the boring and boring repetitive process was finally stopped.

After sleeping to refresh himself, he got up again and refined a furnace of elixir.

Sitting in the room, he took out the fishbone needle, prepared to carve the rune, and carefully used his divine sense to control the aura to evenly carve the rune on the small flying needle, and the first rune was not yet completed, because the spiritual power was not well controlled at the time of the transition, causing the flying needle to break.

The first failure was expected, Lixia didn't pay attention to it at all, but after a hundred consecutive failures, Lixia frowned and pouted, and lay back in self-abandonment, because of the excessive consumption of divine consciousness, the whole person was in a state of exhaustion, Lixia simply closed his eyes and fell asleep.

After waking up from sleep, he became refreshed and began to fight against the carving rune again.

After going back and forth like this, after scrapping more than 600 fishbone needles, Lixia successfully carved the breath collection rune on the fishbone needle for the first time.

Once you succeed once, it seems to be much easier after that, and there are always two or three out of ten successes.

At this time, the first day was already the eighth day, and there were still two days left before the ten-day deadline mentioned by the Taoist of the heart.
