Chapter 35
The key to alchemy talent is to have a fire spirit root, a strong affinity for fire aura, and a very strong divine thought, which is also the so-called spiritual power in Zhang Lao's mouth. The spiritual power is strong, and he can quickly analyze and control the temperature of the spiritual fire in the Dan furnace, and control the position and condensation of the elixir in the Dan furnace, these two points are Wang Jing's advantages, and now he is suffering from no spiritual fire to try.
On the third day, Wang Jing went to the three elders and humbly learned the basic art of refining weapons. First understand the origin of commonly used heavenly materials and earth treasures, material properties, approximate prices, refining furnace fire control, and then be familiar with the ratio of various refining materials, the drawing of runes, and the blessing method of simple prohibition.
Because the Zhang family has a dark iron mine, what the three elders can refine is a low-level magic weapon that uses dark iron as raw material. A low-level low-level magic weapon also needs a hundred spirit stones on the market, and if it fails to refine once, it will be lost, so naturally Wang Jing will not let Wang Jing waste refining materials casually.
Days like this are day after day, dull and stable. Although the cultivation has not increased, the mana has been repeatedly purified by Jin Hai, but the spells released are three times that of monks of the same level, plus the other half of the aura that Jin Hai can transform, even if he fights against the tenth-level monk of the Qi refining period head-on, he will not fall behind.
After more than a year of study, although Wang Jing was not able to do it himself, he also gained a lot of knowledge, and had a preliminary understanding of the difficulties and risks of refining, at least he would not be ambitious to start refining magic weapons now, which was no different from throwing spirit stones into the stove for firewood.
Because of the long-term cooperation in refining the Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire Talisman, the relationship between Wang Jing and the Great Elder is getting better and better, and there is almost nothing to talk about. Half a year later, with the acquiescence of the Great Elder, Wang Jing began to refine the talisman seal in the Great Elder's study. The first refining was the simplest first-level low-level fireball talisman, although he had already observed the old man's refining hundreds of times, and when he really started to use his hands, he still felt that his hands were not enough. Either the dansha was sprinkled, or the spiritual strokes were crooked, either the runes were deformed, or the spiritual energy injection was not up to the requirements.
Refining talismans is a meticulous work that consumes a lot of spirit and mana, and the slightest mistake will undo all the work. Although Wang Jing's body had undergone the transformation of bone cutting and marrow washing, his divine sense was stronger than that of ordinary monks, and his mana was also comparable to that of a seventh-layer monk in the Qi refining period, he still often suffered from the confusion of failure.
In the first month, he wasted three hundred blank rune seals, nearly ten bottles of dansha, and endured hundreds of explosions, but one rune seal was not successfully refined. This incident made Wang Jing depressed for a long time, and the old man was also very proud in his heart, it was really wise not to let Wang Jing practice talisman making at the beginning.
In the second month, Wang Jing stopped learning refining tools and alchemy, and concentrated on making talismans, constantly looking for the reason for his failure. After summing up the lessons of his failures many times, learning from the old man's successful experience, and failing thousands of times, he finally succeeded in refining a low-level fireball talisman by luck.
Groping for the fireball in his hand that was not full of aura and the aura fluctuation was not very stable, Wang Jing was still very happy. Because after the analysis of his strong spiritual power, he has mastered the key technical steps of talisman making, and what he lacks is only practice makes perfect when he uses it.
Wang Jing activated the fireball talisman and threw it at the boulder in front of him, and the fireball talisman exploded the stone into a crack five feet long and half an inch wide, and there was a black hole the size of a bowl in the center of the crack. Although the release of this talisman seal is not as powerful as the fireball technique he cast, after all, this is a good start, and it still makes Wang Jing happy, and he also pulled Zhang Jun and Zhang Juan and a few young children who could talk to celebrate together.
In the third month, Wang Jing increased the success rate of the fireball talisman to five percent, and the quality of the talisman seal was also greatly improved. Although it can't be compared with the aura fullness of the fireball rune made by the old man, it is not much inferior to the ordinary qi refining period talisman maker.
In the fourth month, Wang Jing increased the success rate of talisman making to 1/10.
In the fifth month, Wang Jing increased the success rate of talisman making to one-fifth.
In the sixth month, Wang Jing increased the success rate of talisman making to a terrifying one-third.
In the seventh month, Wang Jing increased the success rate of talisman making to a terrifying one-half.
In the eighth month, Wang Jing raised the success rate of talisman making to a terrifying 100 percent.
After wasting thousands of spirit stones' blank talisman seals and dansha, it is now possible to make a steady profit. The waste of so many spirit stones in the first five months made the Great Elder also very painful. Of course, Wang Jing couldn't afford to pay, so he had to desperately restore the power of thunder and lightning in addition to talisman making, and willingly cooperated with the Great Elder to refine the heaven, thunder, earth, and fire talisman seal, so as to resist the huge amount of spirit stones owed to learn talisman making.
Unexpectedly, Wang Jing's talisman became more and more proficient later, not only was it fast and had a high success rate, but also the aura of the seal was pure, and the power was no worse than the Great Elder's fireball talisman. To sum up, the Great Elder who has been making talismans for decades can only bow down with a guilty face.
Because Wang Jing's thunder and lightning power was too precious, the old man didn't let him try the Heaven Thunder and Earth Fire Talisman Seal that he had refined by himself. In his words, you can release the power of thunder and lightning yourself, you can try as many times as you want in the future, you don't have much time here, it's better to refine one more Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire Talisman to pay off your debts.
Wang Jing was speechless for a while, but he was helpless. After all, they saved his life and taught him the secret of making Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire Talismans, as long as he has time, he can make a large number of Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire Talismans, and he doesn't care about one or two finished talismans.
Wang Jing has been in the Zhang family for more than a year, and his figure has become more tall and strong, and he is also very friendly with the younger generation of disciples of the Zhang family, and often exchanges cultivation experiences together, leaving a good memory.
During this period, Wang Jing listened to the teachings of the three elders, learned a lot of basic knowledge of refining tools and alchemy, and also learned a talisman making skill that could gain a foothold in the immortal cultivation world. Although it was still a third-layer Great Perfection realm of qi refining, the purity of mana refinement had doubled. Casting a low-level fireball technique can be almost instantaneous, coupled with his strengthened Heavenly Demon Immortal Body, he is truly head-on with a tenth-layer Qi refining cultivator, as long as he is not beaten by the group, he can definitely be invincible.
There are not many comfortable days left. As the time for the Fire Cloud Sect to recruit disciples approached, it was coming to an end.
Because the Zhang family had children who were inner disciples in the Huoyun Sect, the sect came back three days before recruiting disciples. The disciple should take a few children of the family with good qualifications to the sect to gild, strengthen the relationship between the family and the sect, and ask the sect to deal with it if the family encounters a problem that they can't solve.
The day before leaving, Wang Jing went to Henggang Mountain with Zhang Jun and Zhang Juan. They like Wang Jing's simplicity and sincerity, and Wang Jing also cherishes his help to them. In the days of getting along together, they talked very happily, and these two life-saving benefactors and friends agreed with them that after 50 years of meeting, everyone would take their other half and go boating on Wushan Lake together.
