No matter how hard Du Feiyu punched, he couldn't shake Lu Xiaoan, and even a punch in Lu Xiaoan's palm shook his fist a little faintly.

Du Feiyu rubbed his fists and said, "The young master is an immortal, I can't compare." ”

Lu Xiaoan shook his head and said, "What kind of immortal is it, but it's just stronger than ordinary people." ”

Du Feiyu stopped talking, but Lu Xiaoan could probably guess what he was thinking in his heart.

It's been so long since they've been together, Du Feiyu's heart is still good, Lu Xiaoan took out the Heavenly Demon Forging Body Exercise that had been prepared a long time ago from the storage bag and handed it to him, saying, "You practice this exercise well, don't tell anyone." ”

Du Feiyu was overjoyed, he had been looking forward to such a day for a long time, so he immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Lu Xiaoan.

Lu Xiaoan said: "There is no need to do this, although there are exercises, the path of cultivation is still very difficult for you, and whether you can achieve it in the end depends on your own creation." ”

Lu Xiao'an, who gave Du Feiyu the exercises, also deleted the part that needed spiritual objects later. Du Feiyu is just an ordinary person, he can't bear those poisons at all, and if he has some hope in the future, Lu Xiaoan will tell him that it is not too late.

After passing on Du Feiyu's exercises, Lu Xiaoan said again: "This gang you got is not bad, if you can make a name for yourself, it will also help me, but your strength is still too weak, remember to be low-key and cautious, and restrain the people below not to provoke right and wrong." ”

Du Feiyu nodded hurriedly and said, "I understand." ”

"Alright, you can go!"

Waving his hand to let Du Feiyu leave, Lu Xiaoan thought about where he should go next?

It's not okay to stay in Yue'an City all the time, it's too close to the Xia Sword Sect and the Duxian Gate, maybe one day it will be bumped into.

Going to Huai'an City?

Lu Xiaoan wanted to go, but he ran away again just after saying goodbye, and Lu Xiaoan was a little embarrassed. And half a year later, he has to go back to the sect to get the Seven Aperture Glass Heart, and it will be troublesome to run back and forth.

So where to go?

Suddenly, Lu Xiaoan felt homeless. At this time, he realized that sometimes there may be helplessness behind the free and easy.

People are so weird, sometimes they always feel like a bondage, and they try to break free from it in every possible way. But when you get rid of it, you realize, why is there no direction all of a sudden?

"Hey!"

Sighing, Lu Xiaoan decided to find a place to refine more bullets first, now that there are only four bullets left in the magic sniper, he is really insecure.

However, refining is different from alchemy, alchemy is troublesome to learn, you need to memorize a lot of medicinal properties of spiritual plants, and you have to learn to master the heat, and if you don't pay attention to a furnace of pills, it will be scrapped. But alchemy also has an advantage, that is, as long as there is an alchemy furnace after learning, you can refine it wherever you go, because alchemy does not have such high requirements for flames and does not require a particularly high temperature.

But refining tools are different, not only do they need ultra-high temperatures to melt those spiritual materials, but they also need a variety of auxiliary tools. Therefore, refining tools is easy to learn, and refining is really troublesome.

Lu Xiaoan is very embarrassed now, although he has materials and auxiliary tools, but there is no fire! No matter how many things you have, you just can't do it without fire. Lu Xiaoan is not a big god, he can refine the weapon with both hands as soon as the baby fire comes out, he is still just a newcomer, he has to rely on the recommendation position, oh no, he has to rely on the refining room to provide firepower.

Then how can there be a refining room?

The refining room of other sects will definitely not be used by you, so the only thing Lu Xiaoan can think of is a tool pavilion meeting of similar nature to the Danta League.

The Danta League and the Pavilion Society were not sects, and they were originally loose organizations organized by some loose cultivators and refiners. It is equivalent to reporting to the group for heating, and later developed well, and it slowly developed to Guangyue country.

However, after all, Guangyue Country is remote, and refining weapons have relatively high requirements for earth fire, so there is only one branch of the Instrument Pavilion Society in the entire Guangyue Kingdom, which is in Muyang City, more than 4,000 miles south of Yue'an City.

These were only learned by Lu Xiaoan after he went to Huai'an City, otherwise he really had nowhere to go. However, Muyang City is not close, and once you go back and forth, you will add refining weapons, and the time for cultivation will be delayed again.

Lu Xiaoan was very depressed, why was it so difficult for him to cultivate quietly every time! If Gu Linghua found out that he didn't have a pulse realm after three years, would he think he was an exaggerated person?

"Hey, life is not easy, and cultivation is even more difficult. ”

Lu Xiaoan had no choice but to pack up his things and set off immediately, striving to go early and return early for a lot of time to cultivate.

Lu Xiao'an, who was more than 4,000 miles away, didn't want to walk, so he asked Du Feiyu to get him a carriage, originally Du Feiyu wanted to go with him, but Lu Xiaoan gave him a task, let him continue to collect spiritual materials, and didn't give him gold.

Du Feiyu didn't have any complaints, and immediately agreed, saying that he would not disappoint Lu Xiaoan.

In fact, the speed of the carriage was not much faster, and it took almost ten days for more than 4,000 miles. But there is an advantage to riding in a carriage, that is, although it is a little bumpy, you can barely cultivate. Moreover, Lu Xiaoan covered all the carriages, so that he could use the method of magic needles to cultivate.

However, at the beginning, he was a little annoyed, and the magic needle would stab Lu Xiao'an with the bumps of the carriage, but in order to cultivate to the Tongmai realm within three years, Lu Xiaoan could only work hard to overcome this small difficulty. Fortunately, he had been devastated by the cultivation of the Heavenly Demon Forging Body, and this little problem would not affect him for a long time.

Although Heaven Devouring Earth is the ultimate earth-level exercise, it can be cultivated a little faster than the Immortal Gate exercise. Because practicing this exercise seemed to be really swallowing the spiritual qi of heaven and earth, Lu Xiaoan only felt that every acupuncture point of his body had turned into a mouth, and he inhaled frantically.

Of course, there is also a disadvantage to cultivating like this, that is, the whole body is uncomfortably swollen, and it feels like you are about to explode at any time. Originally, it was very fast to cultivate the Heaven and Earth, and Lu Xiaoan also used magic needles to stimulate acupuncture points, so it is understandable to have this feeling.

But no matter how uncomfortable it was, Lu Xiaoan gritted his teeth and insisted, and when he arrived in Muyang City, he finally reached the third layer of Qi training.

Muyangcheng, in the middle of a desert, the scorching sun bakes the earth, making this land look illusory.

Unlike the busy traffic in other places, on the way to Muyangcheng, you can rarely see pedestrians or carriages and horses, and Lu Xiaoan's carriage is a lonely boat on the vast sea.

It's so remote and inhospitable that the people who survive here are tenacious and fierce at the same time.

Lu Xiaoan thought that there was no one around, because there was yellow sand all around, and he could see through it at a glance, and there was no one at all. But who would have thought that when it was still more than ten miles away from Muyangcheng, four people suddenly appeared in the sand on both sides of the road, and jumped into the carriage with a knife.

"Get down, this carriage and what's on it are ours. ”

One person lifted the curtain and yelled viciously at Lu Xiaoan, who had already stopped cultivating.

Lu Xiaoan was not afraid, and was even gnawing on the claws of some kind of animal. The four of them were stunned for a moment, and they also understood that they might have run into hard stubble.

Glancing at each other, the four of them wanted to give up but were a little unwilling, so they wanted to test Lu Xiaoan.

Lu Xiaoan said: "Since you don't want my life, then I won't hurt your life." ”

As he spoke, Lu Xiao'an snapped his fingers, and the bones left over from the eating of some animal accurately hit the wrists of the four people holding the knife, and they were carried by this force and fell off the carriage. Although it didn't hurt them, the four of them were afraid that they would have to change hands if they wanted to use knives again.

Such a small episode made Lu Xiaoan see the fierceness of Mu Yangcheng, and at the same time secretly vigilant. Since the branch of the Pavilion Society is here, there must be a lot of monks in the city.

After thinking about it, Lu Xiaoan stopped the carriage from afar, then jumped down, took off the halter on the horse, and let it leave by itself. Taking a carriage into the city was still too conspicuous, and Lu Xiaoan decided that it was better to keep a low profile.

As soon as he stepped on the ground, Lu Xiaoan felt the scorching heat here, although as a qi practitioner, he didn't care much about this temperature, but he also understood why the Pavilion Society had built its branch here.

The fire here is so strong that it is estimated that there is no place in Guangyue except for the volcano and the surrounding area. However, it is obviously impossible to build a city around the volcano, and the Pavilion Society is not a sect, so it has to be opened to the outside world, so it can only choose this place.

Lu Xiaoan walked towards Muyang City, although Muyang City also has a city gate, but it is a little stingy, and it is basically just a show, and there are no soldiers guarding the city.

Therefore, most of the monks who came here were monks who came for the Pavilion Society, and ordinary soldiers dared to stop them?

After entering the city, Lu Xiaoan found that the city was not as bad as he imagined, there were still many vendors along the street, and everyone should have been used to such a temperature for a long time, so life was not much different.

Lu Xiaoan's dress was completely different from that of the locals, and everyone saw him at a glance, so many people gathered around. There were children begging for him, thieves trying to steal, vendors selling all sorts of things to him, and even women who said things he couldn't understand.

What 'do you want to play a trick', 'go to the house to cool off', Lu Xiaoan really doesn't understand what it means. However, he was not interested in understanding all of them, so he refused them all and walked away quickly. Then, there was a burst of curses behind him.

"Sure enough, one side of the water and soil raises one side of the people!"

Lu Xiaoan couldn't help muttering, and then wanted to find someone to inquire about where the Pavilion would be.

But he soon found that there seemed to be no need to ask anyone, for the monks in the street were basically going to one place. A place that can attract so many monks, even if it is not the Pavilion Society, Lu Xiaoan wants to go and see it.

Mu Yangcheng is much smaller than Yue Ancheng, and it didn't take long for Lu Xiaoan to see the three big characters of 'Qige Society'. Even in this desolate and barren Muyang City, the Pavilion Society was built very atmosphericly, and it looked a little out of place compared to the small and simple houses around.

Lu Xiaoan immediately walked over, but a female qi practitioner stopped him at the door and asked, "May I ask if Your Excellency is a refiner or is you here to buy magic weapons?"

Lu Xiaoan glanced at this female qi practitioner and found that her cultivation was not high, so he said, "I am a refiner, and I want to borrow the refining room of your association." ”

The female qi practitioner's eyes seemed to light up, and she asked again: "I didn't expect Your Excellency to be a refiner at such a young age, so do you want to join our Instrument Pavilion Association?"

Lu Xiaoan thought for a while and asked, "Are there any conditions?"

The female qi practitioner said: "As long as you are a refiner, you can join." ”

Lu Xiaoan asked again: "Is there any benefit to joining?"

The female qi practitioner said: "Of course there are benefits, why don't you go in with me first, and I'll talk to you in detail." ”

Lu Xiaoan naturally didn't have any opinions, so he followed.

I didn't go to any special place, so I found a place to sit down, and the female qi practitioner continued: "As long as you join the Instrument Pavilion Society, you will be your own person, and there will be a discount for doing anything, for example, if someone who is not from our Instrument Pavilion Club wants to consign the magic weapon in our Instrument Pavilion Society, we will charge 30% of the fee, while our own people will only charge 20% or even lower." ”

"Also, our refining room can be tight at times, and renting it by our own people is not only cheaper, but also has priority access. ”

Lu Xiaoan nodded, this is indeed a lot of benefits, so he asked, "Then what do I need to do?"

The female qi practitioner said, "You only need to pass our refiner rating." ”

Lu Xiaoan was stunned for a moment and explained: "I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about what I need to do after I join?"

The female qi practitioner said, "There is no need to do anything. ”

"Huh?"

Lu Xiaoan was stunned for a moment, and said, "Don't you need me to refine weapons for the Instrument Pavilion or something?"

The female qi practitioner said: "There is no need at all, our Pavilion Association is originally a loose organization, and there will be no restrictions on the members of the organization, and even if you want to quit, you can quit at any time." ”

Lu Xiaoan was a little stunned, it was the first time he had heard of such a good thing, and he didn't need to pay anything to enjoy preferential treatment, which was so good that Lu Xiaoan couldn't believe it.

Seeing Lu Xiaoan's suspicions, the female qi practitioner smiled and said to him, "If you don't believe it, you can just find someone to ask." ”

With Lu Xiaoan's vigilant character, I really don't believe in this kind of thing.

However, at this time, Xiao Ai suddenly said: "They want to entrap all refiners, and then monopolize the refining industry." ”

Lu Xiaoan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"

Xiao Ai explained: "Monopoly means that only they buy and sell magic weapons, and no one else can buy and sell, which is called monopoly." ”

Lu Xiaoan said: "How is this possible!"

Xiao Ai said: "It is certainly impossible to prevent everyone else from buying and selling, but from a commercial point of view, it is completely feasible to form a monopoly. ”

Lu Xiaoan was still a little confused, and Xiao Ai asked: "If what the other party said is true, will you join?"

Lu Xiaoan said without hesitation: "Of course, such a good thing naturally has to join." ”

Xiao Ai asked, "Then will you choose to consign your surplus magic weapons in the Pavilion in the future?"

As soon as Xiao Ai asked this, Lu Xiao'an immediately understood, if all the refiners were from the Instrument Pavilion Society, and they all sold their own refining magic weapons in the Instrument Pavilion Society, then wouldn't those who wanted to buy magic weapons only come to the Instrument Pavilion Association to buy them? Isn't this the monopoly that Xiao Ai said!

Benefiting people's hearts is far more effective than any ideal ambition. Although there is no shortage of people who will be hot-headed for a while, they can never be hot-headed forever, and the forces developed by means of demagoguery and deception will not last long after all, and can only develop for a long time if they are beneficial to both sides.

It's no wonder that the Pavilion will be able to develop to Guangyue Kingdom, Lu Xiaoan has to admit that their methods are very clever, and even if he knows the ultimate goal of the other party, he still plans to join, because it is not bad for him, but good for him.

If you refuse to do this kind of thing, then there is really a problem with your brain.

So, the female qi practitioner took Lu Xiaoan to do the refiner rating.

There are nine levels of magic weapons, so the refiner naturally has nine grades, and those who can refine several levels of magic weapons are several grades of refiners, which is the same as an alchemist.

Lu Xiaoan had already practiced very simple magic needles in addition to refining magic guns and magic snipers, so he was really a little nervous, afraid that he was not even a first-grade refiner.

The refiner's rating was carried out in a special refining room, and the female qi practitioner left after bringing Lu Xiao'an here, and an old man rated Lu Xiao'an.

The old man glanced at Lu Xiaoan with a smile, and then said: "There are materials from the first to the third order here, whatever you want to refine, as long as you refine the corresponding magic weapon, but the first-order magic weapon must be refined within one day, the second order is three days, and the third order is seven days, and if the time exceeds the time, it is unqualified, so you can refine the simplest magic weapon." ”

A simple ritual weapon?

In Lu Xiaoan's opinion, the sword is very simple, the short knife and the short sword are simpler, but they are also first-order magic weapons, and there are four grades of lower, middle, upper, and extreme when refined, and the worse you refine, the worse the level.

Although Lu Xiaoan wanted to keep a low profile, he didn't want to behave badly yet, because it didn't do him any good.

Lu Xiaoan, a second-order magic weapon, felt that he might not be able to do it well, so he chose a first-order magic weapon. Because he made the knife himself, Lu Xiaoan was most familiar with the knife, so he planned to refine a magic knife.

Refining a magic weapon is first of all to choose materials, but there are not many options available here, so there is nothing to choose. After that, the material is melted at high temperatures, which requires little technology and just takes some time. Of course, people with high cultivation can also speed up this process with their own mana.

After the material is melted, it is formed and forged, and it is not possible to form it at one time, and it needs to be calcined repeatedly, which is a test of skill and experience.

Unlike creating ordinary weapons, refining magic weapons also needs to consider the circulation of spiritual power in the magic weapon, sometimes although your things are built, but the flow of spiritual power is not smooth, it is also unqualified.

This is not only a test of your refining skills, but also a test of whether your control of your own spiritual power is fine. Lu Xiaoan still has no problem on this, because refining magic spears and magic snipers has higher requirements for finesse, and he has no problem refining them, and a magic knife is only a small meaning to him.

It only took half a day for Lu Xiaoan to refine a magic knife, the old man picked it up and looked at it, nodded and said: "Not bad, it's almost a first-order best magic knife, congratulations, you will be our own person in the Pavilion Association in the future." ”

Lu Xiaoan also smiled politely, and then asked about borrowing the refining room.
