Chapter 116: Refining Armor
When Zhao Jiuge entered the cave and walked into the mountain, the light suddenly dimmed, and then the surroundings fell into pitch black, and after walking a few steps, this short darkness dissipated, and the darkness was replaced by a gloomy halo.
At this time, Zhao Jiuge discovered that the inside of the mountain in the casting sword blade was like a masterpiece of ghostly workmanship. I saw that the belly of the mountain has already been hollowed out, and the surrounding mountain walls are spiraling downward and meander, and at the same time, with the help of the mountain, the stairs made of mountain stones directly around the mountain also continue to extend downward to the bottom of the mountain, and the stairs made of these money stones are connected with the entire mountain peak.
On the left side of the stairs was a fist-sized iron chain, which kept going down the stairs, Zhao Jiuge looked at it, and he couldn't see the end at a glance, and he didn't know how long the iron chain that followed the stairs made of mountain stones was. And the right side of the stairs is the whole mountain wall, every 20 meters, the mountain wall is concave into a part, that is artificially excavated a rectangular card slot of about one foot size, each of which is filled with dark red luminous beads, each luminous bead is the size of a baby's fist, exudes a dark red halo all around, every 20 meters or more, the stairs made of mountain stone are illuminated clearly, these luminous beads are like a dark red dragon, undulating and entrenched in the interior of the mountain.
Zhao Jiuge looked down from above, looked at the scene below, was a little stunned, it took a long time to come back to his senses, and walked slowly down the stairs, the middle of the mountainside has been hollowed out and transported out, and he can clearly see the bottom, even with Zhao Jiuge's eyesight in the current foundation building realm, he can't see it at a glance. As you walk down, the mountain wall on the right is covered with large and small ravines, witnessing the long years that this mountain has experienced.
Zhao Jiuge, who couldn't wait, walked slowly and leisurely when he stepped on this road, but his mood calmed down, and after walking for about half an hour, Zhao Jiuge heard the noise from below, the sound of his own iron hammering.
It seemed that even the surrounding temperature was slowly rising, and Zhao Jiuge could see that there were some figures below. Finally, it didn't take long for Zhao Jiuge to go down the stairs to the plane underground, as soon as his feet stepped on the ground, he could feel the unevenness, the colors around him gave people a sense of only darkness with a red halo, and the temperature was much higher than outside.
The space below is much larger, at least Zhao Jiuge has already seen that there is a stone gate seven or eight meters long and wide not far away, and the noisy sound is coming from inside.
Seeing that someone was coming, the eyes of the two figures standing at the door of the stone gate lit up at the same time, and they walked towards Zhao Jiuge, and at the same time muttered that there was business coming again.
These two young men were wearing the sword robes of the outer disciples, and their appearance was mediocre, but the tall young man unconsciously showed a sad expression on his face, while the slightly shorter young man on the right was wearing a sloppy and messy sword robe, and he was smiling at the moment, but he felt a little treacherous.
"Hehe, this little brother hasn't been here for long since he looks old, does he want to refine the flying sword like this?" The young man with sloppy sword robe and messy hair, his face was full of red light, and he asked Zhao Jiuge with a smile. I don't know if it's because I stayed underground for a long time and was hot from the temperature, but even Zhao Jiuge could see that the smile was treacherous.
Zhao Jiuge smiled knowingly, pursed his lips and didn't speak, but just took out ten spirit stones from the savings ring and quietly stuffed them into the hands of the two young people. Besides, Zhao Jiuge now has a lot of family backgrounds, and he doesn't care about these ten spirit stones.
When the two young men saw the spirit stone that was stuffed into their hands, even the tall young man who had been frowning sadly flashed a bright look in his eyes, and the sloppy young man in the sword robe laughed even more, with a happy face, thinking that this kid was really good and generous.
The two of them are just outer disciples, after entering the sect back then, they failed to enter the inner gate, so they have been staying in the outer gate, even if the other brothers did not enter the inner gate, they also earned the tribute by receiving the task and had already exchanged for magic weapons and exercises, and they were constantly cultivating to improve their cultivation, but they were a little afraid of death, relying on the miscellaneous things in the Sword Casting Hall, and receiving some spirit stones to cultivate every month, so a vicious circle, naturally the gap between them and others is getting bigger and bigger. Generally speaking, if you fail to enter the inner door, it means that the sect has given up on you, no longer gives you resources, and everything can only rely on yourself, and their qualifications are mediocre, and if they want to go far on this road, they are hopeless, so they simply mess up their lives. There are a lot of people like them, sitting in the sect and doing chores in exchange for meager resources to cultivate.
At this time, Zhao Jiuge saw the expressions of the two in his eyes, and finally asked, "Two senior brothers, where is this Sword Casting Hall refining magic weapon refined. ”
"What do you want to refine, flying sword?" the scruffy young man asked again.
Zhao Jiuge shook his head slightly, "I want to refine my armor." ”
As soon as these words came out, the two young men were startled, and their eyes were round, especially the sloppy young man who was even more shocked, and pointed at Zhao Jiuge and said, "You actually want to refine armor, look at you like you are still a new disciple, you haven't been here for a few years, where did you get so many materials to refine armor." ”
They were a little puzzled where Zhao Jiuge got so many materials, they already knew that in fact, armor was rarer than flying swords, but the Xuantian Sword Gate mainly focused on swords, so they paid more attention to flying swords, but the practicality of armor is indisputable, just ask, if you can't even save your life, what's the use of attacking powerfully, you will already die if you don't have a chance to use it.
The armor consumes the most materials, not only because of the volume, but also because the ore required and the forging process are too cumbersome, and if one is not good, the forging fails, resulting in the waste and loss of materials.
"Hehe, I was lucky to go out and do the mission, and I just got some, so I thought about making a defensive magic weapon armor, which can also enhance my security. Zhao Jiuge smiled happily on his face, even now thinking back on the harvest of this trip, he was already excited.
The sloppy young man raised his eyes, and looked at Zhao Jiuge obliquely, and suddenly became interested, "Oh, what materials have you obtained?"
"Purple polestone. Zhao Jiuge smiled mysteriously and outlined the corners of his mouth.
The young man who looked a little sad and the sloppy young man immediately frowned and thought about it, and within a few seconds, their eyes lit up, they glanced at each other, and said in unison, "Purple Pole Stone." ”
The two pairs of eyes were round, indescribably surprised, the sloppy young man took the lead in reacting, and looked at Zhao Jiuge seriously a few times, his eyes kept rolling, and then he kept thinking about weighing the pros and cons in his heart, he originally thought that he was a stunned young man, to see if he could get some small benefits from Zhao Jiuge, who knew that Zhao Jiuge was so upright that he gave five spirit stones by himself before he opened his mouth, and now he actually came to refine his armor, and he used such a precious ore, and Zhao Jiuge was young, he was a little unpredictable about Zhao Jiuge's identity for a while, so he simply put away his previous careful thoughts, it is better to have a good relationship, and he can be familiar with each other in the Xuantian Sword Gate in the future, so that there is a response.
Thinking of this, the sloppy young man changed his previous somewhat treacherous smile, and opened his mouth to ask with concern on his face, "Brother, are you sure that your purple polar stone is enough, the armor is not other auxiliary materials, and the clothing embryo made of ore alone is a large amount." "Among the magic weapons, only when weapons and armor are refined, embryos must be made first, and then some auxiliary materials are constantly used to forge them, and these two embryos are generally made of ores full of spirituality.
"That's enough. Zhao Jiuge nodded lightly, before he came, he had already learned from Bai Qingqing's mouth about the amount of ore needed to refine armor. Therefore, about 300 catties of purple pole stone is completely enough to refine the coat embryo of the armor. The premise is that if the refining fails.
Seeing Zhao Jiuge's breezy and confident appearance, the sloppy young man couldn't figure out the bottom of Zhao Jiuge, but the news on his face was even stronger.
"We have to charge a fee for refining magic weapons here, and there are only a dozen places in the center of the earth large and small that are far from the fire, so every time we come to refine magic weapons, we may not be able to refine them immediately, and we will go in and take out the wooden card to register, and then leave the materials, and you can get it after a while." ”
Hearing the sloppy young man's words, Zhao Jiu Ge just thought about it for a while and nodded, he believed that the sect would not do anything to enrich his own pockets, and the Xuantian Sword Sect was such a big faction, it should not look down on him for this little thing.
"Then thank you two senior brothers, there are two senior brothers Lao to lead the way. Zhao Jiuge said politely.
The sloppy young man was happy with this, and hurriedly ran to the front to lead the way for Zhao Jiuge, as for the young man with a somewhat sad face, he followed silently all the way, looking at his eyes a little dull, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.
"After you go in, you can designate a master to refine the magic weapon for you, it depends on your first time here, why don't I recommend it for you?"
This time it was Zhao Jiuge's turn to be a little surprised, surprised, and said with some puzzlement, "Why, isn't there only one master refining magic weapons, are there many more?"
The sloppy young man was surprisingly patient with Zhao Jiuge at the moment, "Yes, there are more than a dozen of them, but these dozen or so are also divided into levels, depending on their personal experience and skills in refining magic weapons, like the top ones are purely based on their mood to do things, otherwise they give him more materials, others don't want you to do it, they only work for the sect, and the rest of them generally don't do anything, they all have their own apprentices, not a job with difficult or high-quality materials, they don't do it, they all give it to their own apprentices." As for the two of us, they are not even as good as apprentices, they are the ones who work for the Sword Casting Hall and run errands, and I don't know when we will be able to stay inside and be apprentices for others. After speaking, a look of frustration appeared on his somewhat unclean face, and even the young man with the sad face let out a long sigh.
"Oh, that's okay, then I'll let my brother recommend one later. "Zhao Jiuge doesn't care who refines his armor, as long as he can refine it, it's the first time he came, after all, he doesn't know a lot of things.
"Well, I believe that with the preciousness of the purple pole stone, there should be a master refining it for you, and those apprentices will refine some low-grade magic weapons at most. The sloppy young man babbled endlessly about refining magic weapons.
Within a few tens of meters, the three of them came to the gray stone gate, because there was still a person to guard outside, so the sloppy young man took Zhao Jiuge into the stone gate, and the young man with a somewhat sad face continued to guard outside, waiting for the arrival of another person refining magic weapons.
