Chapter 52: Another breakthrough

Li Bai walked lightly behind Erbai, looked over his round shoulders, and saw that there seemed to be a faint flash of light at Erbai's fingertips, and he kept drawing on the black stone, leaving invisible shallow traces, and he was still muttering something in his mouth.

Li Bai listened silently for a while, he really didn't know what Erbai was muttering, but he also understood a little, no matter how Erbai's hand moved, his eyes kept staring at the stone slab on his knees, and he didn't leave for a moment.

"Could it be that Erbai can understand this slate" Li Bai suddenly had such a thought in his heart, and then shook his head again and smiled self-deprecatingly.

How is it possible, you must know that just a few days ago, Li Erbai, a gentleman and foodie, was still struggling on the first layer of Qi Condensation, although there is no cultivation requirement for learning the knowledge of refining weapons, but the use of magic weapons requires four layers of Qi Condensation, you think that refining weapons will not be lower than this requirement.

Seeing that Erbai's hand that had been scribbling gradually stopped, Li Bai asked softly.

"Do you know these patterns?"

But Li Erbai didn't react at all, and was still immersed in his own world, as if he hadn't heard of it.

Li Bai stretched out his hand and gently patted Erbai's shoulder, so he saw a strange scene, and at that moment, even Li Bai was a little skeptical that Li Erbai really knew how to refine weapons.

I saw Erbai slowly turn his big fat head, as if the neck was buried in the ground for thousands of years, turning very slowly, although a pair of eyes were open, but blank, no focus, the expression on his face was also very strange, a little frightened, but more questions, as if asking, who are you?

Looking at Li Erbai's never-before-seen appearance, even Li Bai was shocked, and couldn't help but get nervous, afraid that it was the white-robed young man who did something on the stone slab. But fortunately, those eyes finally gradually brightened, and their eyes were focused, reflecting Li Bai's appearance inside, and the familiar feeling slowly returned.

"Brother Bai. It's you!" seemed to finally see the appearance of the person in front of him, Li Erbai suddenly came to his senses, and only pounced on Li Bai from the bed without warning.

Before Li Bai, who was standing still, could speak, Li Erbai had already slipped off him and shouted with his hands dancing.

"Brother Bai, where did you get this magic pattern stone slab, do you know, this is an offensive magic pattern, as long as you engrave it on this stone, and then refine it a little, it will be a magic weapon."

Sure enough, it is the magic pattern of refining magic weapons, but it is just a magic pattern, as for being so excited? Li Bai wrinkled his nose and looked at Li Erbai with some doubts.

"You know the refiner?"

Li Erbai was suddenly a little embarrassed, stretched out his hand and scratched his head innocently, but he didn't deny it.

It's really an eye-opener, Li Erbai, who is on the first floor of condensation, actually understands refining, is this a sow going up a tree, or is the sun coming out of the west, it's a bit like a scumbag in elementary school suddenly telling you that he understands advanced functions.

"Isn't refining a weapon that can be obtained by people with a high level of cultivation?" Li Bai still didn't believe it.

"No, no" Hearing this, Erbai waved his hand again and again, gasped sharply, and continued.

"To manipulate magic weapons, generally speaking, it is necessary to condense at least four layers of qi, but the vast majority of people don't know that as long as the true power can be released a little bit in the later stage of qi induction, you can engrave the magic pattern, and if you can engrave the magic pattern, it can basically be said that you can refine the weapon."

seemed to be talking about what he was good at, Li Erbai's voice became very loud, and the look on his face became bright.

"In the later stage of qi induction, it's not just three layers of qi condensation" Li Bai wondered, his father didn't seem to say it back then, did he forget, but it's no wonder, who didn't let himself experience it at that time.

In fact, Li Erbai said it simply, but he didn't talk about the most critical place, the most important step in refining the magic weapon is to engrave the magic pattern on the raw materials of the magic weapon, so as to stimulate the energy of the material itself and use it for the practitioners.

The most important thing in engraving the pattern is not the level of cultivation, but the ability to control the subtleties of one's own true strength, and the understanding of different materials.

That is to say, when engraving the pattern, it is not only necessary to maintain the continuity of the pattern, but also to match the material itself to the greatest extent, so as to maximize the role of the instrument.

However, those who have a high level of cultivation make perfect, and naturally have an advantage in manipulating true power, but what really limits the refiner's achievements is the understanding of the material itself.

You must know that although the proportion of materials that can become the raw materials of magic weapons is very small in nature, the absolute number of them is not small, and the types are also very different, even if two materials are exactly the same, the inner energy texture is different, so how to engrave the magic pattern with a high degree of completion on these different materials, this is the golden mark to measure a refiner.

A good refiner is often a powerful cultivator, while a powerful cultivator is not necessarily a good refiner.

But the reason why people will always stand out no matter what time and space they are in is because they are good at researching and summarizing, and they are most afraid of being serious and pondering everything.

Magic weapons are such useful things, how can no one think about them? With the painstaking efforts of countless capable people over the years, the principles of magic weapons have gradually been elaborated more and more perfectly, the types of magic patterns have become more and more refined, some rules and practice methods have gradually been summarized, and even some unique systematic theories have been passed down by some of them, and they have become the predecessors of those families and sects in the Han Dynasty that specialize in refining weapons.

And these forces with inheritance are always firmly held in the attack or defensive type of magic weapons used by cultivators, and the methods of systematically and effectively cultivating refiners.

After the founding of the Han Dynasty, while giving these inheritance forces the privilege of refining cultivators' magic weapons, they were also given the task of researching and refining "magic weapons" for the daily use of the general public. Over the past thousand years, new achievements have continued to appear and enter people's lives, greatly changing the way ordinary mortals produce and live, greatly enriching the material types of the Han Dynasty, and on the premise of meeting the needs of the Northern War, it also feeds back to the cultivators, so that the national policy of the Han Dynasty to promote cultivation has remained unchanged for thousands of years.

"Then I see that you just pointed at that black stone, and there seemed to be a flash of light on your fingers" Li Bai said over and over again, still thinking about it, Li Erbai is still in the second layer of condensation, how can he really release his power?

The three layers of true power of condensation can reach the skin and be initially released, which is a rule that has not been broken in the thousands of years of practice. Suddenly, like a thunderclap in his ears, Li Bai hadn't finished speaking, and suddenly understood in his heart that it was not that Li Erbai's second layer of condensation could really release his power, but that Li Erbai broke through again, and when the words in his mouth suddenly changed, he said with surprise.

"Erbai, are you condensing the third layer?"

Li Bai scratched his head honestly again, he didn't deny it, but he didn't show too much excitement with good intentions, maybe he was still embarrassed to inadvertently snatch Li Bai's spiritual liquid.

"I'll go, the effect of this spiritual liquid is too fierce" Li Bai opened his mouth wide, and scolded secretly in his heart, but the faster Erbai progressed, the happier he was in his heart, no wonder his true power level in the thatched hut just now could be so much improved.
