Chapter 70: Refining Materials
The master of the Wanbao Pavilion threw the question that Ge Jilou threw at him back to Yang Ziyi.
He did not veto Yang Ziyi's new regulations, but left room for maneuver.
"Isn't this simple?" Yang Ziyi seemed to have already thought of a way to compare the advantages and disadvantages of magic weapons, and said, "As long as the grade is the same, no matter what they refine, as long as my sword slashes the things they refine, then I will lose." If, after the cut, my sword is defective, I will lose. β
Yang Ziyi's remarks made everyone stunned.
Li Quan was a little speechless: "What if they deliberately make a big iron lump out?"
Yang Ziyi smiled confidently: "It's okay, let them toss." β
The Pavilion Master of the Wanbao Pavilion looked at the five refining experts in the Pavilion and asked, "Can you agree with the competition method proposed by Yang Xiaoyou?"
After some discussion, the five of them felt that this would be more beneficial to them, so they agreed.
Finally determined the method of the competition, and then it was time to select the materials, Yang Ziyi stayed in place, and the other five people all entered the warehouse and picked out five different materials.
These five materials, namely fine iron, rejuvenation branches, hooked wolf tails, red dove feathers and cold turtle shells, in addition to fine iron, the other four are relatively ordinary attribute materials, generally used these materials to refine the magic weapon, the highest grade is around the ninth grade of the ground level.
Ge Ji Lou and Li Fen are all metallic, while Dongwen, Xia Jiao, and Le Kefang are cultivating wood attributes, fire attributes, and water attributes.
There are two more common refining methods for magic weapons, one is to refine completely with attribute materials, and the other is to use refined iron as the base, but purify the attribute materials, and then attach the obtained attribute substances to the refined iron embryo.
Although the attribute effect of the magic weapon refined by the method of attribute addition is weaker than that of the magic weapon refined entirely with attribute materials, the magic weapon refined in this way is stronger, after all, not all attribute materials have a degree of hardness that is not weaker than metal.
Moreover, the fine iron also has excellent compatibility, so the magic weapon refined through this method, even if the user's cultivation attributes do not match the attributes of the magic weapon, it can also drive it to a relatively simple battle, but once it is used for too long, and the heterogeneous attribute spiritual power injected into the magic weapon is too much, the magic weapon will still lose control due to attribute conflicts, and the situation will even be destroyed in serious cases.
And those magic weapons that are completely refined with attribute materials will not accept spiritual power that does not match their own attributes, so if the attributes of a cultivator's cultivation do not match the attributes of the magic weapons refined with this method, they will not be able to drive them at all.
This is the main difference between the magic weapons that can be refined by these two different refining methods.
Although fine iron was chosen by Ge Ji Lou, he did not plan to use fine iron as the base to refine magic weapons, because the metallic material he decided to choose was a hooked wolf tail.
The wolf is a creature that is generally copper-headed, iron-bone, and tofu-waisted, while the hooked wolf, as a demon beast, has its tail as the hardest part of its body.
The word "hook" in the name of the hook wolf refers to the fact that it has a hook-like iron tail, and ordinary cultivators whose realm is under the Jiedan can't stop the light hook of this iron tail at all.
This hooked wolf's tail is harder than fine iron, and Ge Jilou is ready to refine it into a magic weapon in the shape of a sickle.
The reason why he chose fine iron as a material was not only for other refiners, but also a trap for Yang Ziyi.
None of these four attribute materials can be directly used to refine a sword, but Yang Ziyi has already indicated that the magic weapon he is going to refine is a sword, so he must use the method of using refined iron as the base to forge a sword.
The hardness of the hooked wolf's tail is stronger than that of refined iron, so the magic weapon refined only with the hooked wolf's tail should be much stronger than the magic weapon refined with refined iron as the base.
And the hooked wolf's tail is curved and can't be refined into a sword, and Yang Ziyi can't directly use the hook wolf's tail to refine magic weapons like Ge Jilou, so Ge Jilou feels that no matter what materials Yang Ziyi chooses to cast the sword, he can't break the game he lays.
This is the wishful thinking in Ge Jilou's heart.
Following Ge Jilou, Li Fenhe also picked up a hooked wolf tail, hesitated for a while, and then took another piece of fine iron, not knowing what magic weapon he wanted to refine.
After the five refiners had selected the materials, Yang Ziyi stepped forward, and after a glance, he actually selected one of each material.
"What is he going to do? Could it be that he wants to refine four swords at the same time?"
The five refiners all looked puzzled.
Although the number of refining tools is not specified in this competition, the refining of attribute materials is required, and the flame used in refining attribute materials is not actually real fire, it is a spiritual fire that transforms the cultivator's own attribute spiritual power through some method. Therefore, theoretically speaking, a refiner can only refine a magic weapon with the same attribute as his own cultivation.
Yang Ziyi actually chose four attribute materials at once, could it be that he cultivated the spiritual root of four attributes at the same time?
The four refiners who had been in the Hidden Sword Pavilion exchanged glances with each other.
As early as when they had not left the Hidden Sword Pavilion, there were rumors that Yang Ziyi had cultivated spiritual roots of multiple attributes at the same time, because those sword weapons that were said to have come from Yang Ziyi's hands had inconsistent attributes.
However, almost no one believed that rumor, and more people felt that those swords with different attributes were not actually created by Yang Ziyi himself.
But now it seems that the rumor is true.
Cultivating the four attributes can also successfully form a pill, it is indeed not something that ordinary people can do, it seems that this kid surnamed Yang really has two brushes.
"What are you in a daze one by one, hurry up and start. β
Yang Ziyi thought of the refining plan, and was just about to start, but found that several refiners were looking at him blankly, and couldn't help frowning.
"Start, startβ"
Several people came back to their senses, found their own positions, and got busy.
Just as the six of them were concentrating on the matter in hand and were busy, Zhong Lidao suddenly noticed something, and the figure flashed and disappeared from the place.
In the distance, around the corner, a woman in black with a black scarf covering her face turned around sharply, and a sword blade popped out of her sleeve, blocking Zhong Lidao's finger that flashed behind her.
Zhong Lidao changed his move very quickly, pointed to the middle of the point, turned the thorn into a bullet, and flicked the long sword in the sleeve of the black-clothed woman, and the sword body of the long sword suddenly made a "buzzing" sound, trembling non-stop.
Although the face of the woman in black was covered by a black silk scarf, it could still be judged from her exposed eyes that she must have a frightened look on her face.
"Who are you!"
The woman in black asked.
