Although you can refine your own natal magic weapon, the difficulty of refining it will be much reduced.

But after all, it is still a magic weapon. No matter what, the requirements for weapon refining skills cannot be too low.

Otherwise, it will inevitably affect the quality of the natal magic weapon, which Liu Yu cannot accept.

So even though he was a bit short on time, he still had to squeeze out some time every day to learn to refine weapons.

After a lot of practice, over time, I have reached the level of refining high-grade magic weapons.

"Zi Zi"

Under the golden red elixir fire, some low-level spiritual materials were easily melted and turned into iron-like liquids of different colors suspended in the air.

The elixir fire of the Golden elixir monk is already very powerful, and it can have good effects in the same level of fighting.

Even the temperature is much higher than that of ordinary earth vein fire.

At this time, dealing with these low-level spiritual materials is like using a cannon to fight mosquitoes, of course, they can be easily captured.

It only took half a quarter of an hour to calcine, and the spiritual material that was usually extremely hard for low-level monks was easily refined.

The impurities are separated bit by bit.

Refining and purifying, separating impurities, condensing and forming, and inscribing runes

Under the golden-red firelight, Liu Yu's expression was extremely focused, and his spiritual consciousness controlled the entire process, separating the impurities in various spiritual materials bit by bit.

At this point, the advantages of cultivation are fully revealed.

With the powerful spiritual consciousness and power of the mind of the Jindan monk, he can multi-task and refine several spiritual materials at the same time, which greatly speeds up the entire refining process.

Of course, the faster the process, the faster the consumption of spirit stones, because the chance of Liu Yu's refining success is far lower than the chance of failure.

"buzz"

Two quarters of an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the various inscriptions with different functions on the high-grade spear weapon that Liu Yu had refined this time had been completely engraved on it.

Success or failure depends on the next moment!

The runes are not finished yet after they are engraved, they must be fused with the embryo of the magic weapon to truly refine it successfully.

Otherwise, the integration of the runes will fail, and even if the refined magic weapon is not completely scrapped, it will still fall far short of the expected grade and have defects of one kind or another.

To a certain extent, it is definitely a failure.

The golden-red elixir fire slowly shrank, but the temperature did not drop but instead increased, calcining the already formed magic weapon even more solidly.

"buzz"

Under the high-intensity calcining, the spear weapon continued to tremble. If it weren't for Liu Yu's forcible control, it would have fallen into pieces long ago.

"It's now!"

Based on the experience of many times of practice, Liu Yu had a premonition that the moment of fusion of the rune array and the magical weapon embryo was coming, and he was already prepared in his heart.

One breath, two breaths

Finally, at the eighth breath, a light flashed in his eyes!

The magic formula that was slowly pinched in the hand also changed in an instant, becoming urgent and fast.

"Buzz buzz"

The spear weapon trembled continuously, and the sharp sound of the gunshot resounded throughout the weapon refining room.

About three feet long, the dark red gun body was engraved with dense runes and exuded a milky white aura.

Without exception, these are offensive runes.

The spear is a weapon of killing. In some places in the secular world, it is called "the king of hundreds of soldiers" and "the thief of hundreds of soldiers".

The spear's reputation as the "King of One Hundred Weapons" comes from its fierce and fierce offensive style, as well as the attack distance brought by "one inch longer and one inch stronger" that far exceeds that of other weapons.

The title of "The Thief of Hundred Soldiers" comes from the various ways of using the spear, such as "end, entanglement, collapse, pick, stab, and dance".

Although there are many variations of spears, there are even people who have mastered their marksmanship and can achieve a combination of strength and softness, and many changes.

But it is undeniable that it is always a killing weapon, and its offensive attributes are always greater than its defensive attributes.

Used for defense, it is not the correct way to open it.

If you want to protect your whole body, it is better to use another defensive weapon.

Therefore, Liu Yu's currently refining spear weapons are all engraved with offensive runes to maximize their offensive strengths.

Once it is successfully refined, its power is generally about 20% greater than that of ordinary magic weapons of the same level.

The gun body emits a dark red spiritual light, and the rune array shines with a milky white halo. Under Liu Yu's precise control, the two brilliance gradually blended together.

Silently, the rune array gradually penetrated into the spear weapon, as if it wanted to be submerged in it.

But this step is extremely slow, as if it has encountered some invisible restriction, and every step of the integration is extremely difficult.

I don't know how many weapon refiners have failed at this last step, and all their previous efforts have been in vain.

Liu Yu's talent in refining weapons was much inferior to that in alchemy, and he also failed countless times.

But this time, his luck seemed to be good, and the fusion of the magic circle went very smoothly.

"buzz"

Amidst the increasingly faint gunshots, the milky white spiritual light gradually weakened, and the rune array gradually submerged into the dark red gun body.

This process lasted for about half an hour.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the red aura of the spear weapon suddenly became brighter, and the milky white halo completely disappeared.

At the same time, it also became completely quiet.

"Yes, it's another top-grade magic weapon."

Liu Yu nodded lightly and looked at the dark red spear in his hand, feeling quite satisfied.

His hands had not yet cooled down, and the gun body was still hot at hundreds of degrees. However, it was as if he were touching an ordinary object, and he didn't feel any hot at all.

In terms of Liu Yu's "half-step to third level" physical body that is now half-stepped into the third level, just one step short of the final step, one or two hundred degrees is just a little "warm breeze".

When refining Qi, condensing golden elixir is condensing golden elixir. There is absolutely no such thing as half-step golden elixir. There is a huge difference between the peak of foundation building and the realm of golden elixir.

There is an essential difference between the existence and non-existence of golden elixir.

If you succeed, you will enter the realm of golden elixir. If you fail, you will fall to the peak of foundation building or even lower. There is no such thing as a "half step".

Just because the process of condensing the golden elixir is a one-stop process, it must pass through the "four difficulties" in one go, and it will never stop when it reaches a certain level.

The only outcome if you stop midway is failure.

If the "mana solidification" fails at the first level, there is a high probability that one can save one's life, but it would be good if the state can be maintained at the peak of foundation building. Naturally, there is no such thing as a "half-step golden elixir".

If in the last three levels, "golden elixir stability", "inner demon calamity", and "golden elixir thunder calamity" fail, 90% of the monks will perish directly.

There are very few cases of surviving after failure in the last three levels.

So sometimes, being able to fall at the first level is also a kind of luck, at least you can save your life!

Compared with the condensed golden elixir of qi refining, the way of physical cultivation is quite different.

Every breakthrough in physical cultivation is mostly an improvement in all aspects of the body, followed by physical cultivation power.

From an objective perspective, compared to the "qi" of qi refining, it is more difficult to improve the "jing" of body refining, and it is almost impossible to achieve it overnight.

Because compared to "qi", the "jing" of a cultivator is actually related to the physical body and exists in the material world, so it is much more stable.

Even if you want to improve, there is always a process.

Even if you break through the realm, it will take a certain amount of time to increase your physical strength.

And this period of physical transformation often takes longer than Dharma cultivation.

In other words, when it comes to physical cultivation, there is indeed a "half-step" theory.

One foot has passed, but the other has not. There are still certain conditions that have not been met, or we have to wait for the transformation of the physical body to be completed.

As for "god", compared to essence and qi, it is more illusory.

"Perhaps for those who specialize in cultivating the Way of God, promotion is just a matter of a thought."

"With just a thought, promotion can be completed?!"

Based on the ethereal characteristics of "god", Liu Yu secretly guessed.

While thinking, he put the dark red spear into his storage bag, and took out a bunch of low-level spiritual materials to start refining the magic weapon.

It has to be said that refining magic weapons after reaching the realm of golden elixir does have considerable advantages in all aspects.

It is mainly reflected in many aspects such as spiritual consciousness, mind, mana, and elixir fire.

But the biggest advantage is still the elixir fire.

Although ordinary monks can achieve the same effect through earth fire refining, there is always a certain "delay" and they cannot directly control the earth fire. They can only control it through tokens and mechanisms.

However, the elixir fire of the Golden elixir cultivator can be freely retracted and moved at will, and its performance in purifying spiritual materials and removing impurities is better than ordinary earth fire.

It is precisely because of his various advantages that now, fifteen years later, Liu Yu's success rate in refining high-grade magical weapons has officially reached 30%.
