half year later.
The Way of Refining Weapons.
Hall of merit.
He Lian walked into the hall and said to a fat middle-aged man who was reading a book with his legs crossed: "Please, I will deliver the commission."
"It's He Lian, you kid is really stuck every time. Bring it here."
The fat middle-aged man waved, and He Lian took out a densely woven green sword from his storage bag and handed it over.
This is a task issued by the Weapon Refining Dao. The original headmaster He Yuexiu was forced to take care of the headmaster Xu Daoyuan personally and gave He Lian three years of pure cultivation. Since the last three-year gathering, he returned to the mountain, and the three-year purification period has expired.
So, He Lian naturally no longer has any privileges.
For formal disciples, they need to accept at least three commissioned tasks and complete them in their respective Taoist temples and temples every year.
Then, the Shigongtang will give an evaluation based on the completion of the task. The bottom is half the effort, the middle is one effort, and the top is two efforts.
After a formal disciple has accumulated one hundred gongs, he can be upgraded to a Dharma disciple.
After a disciple of the Dharma has accumulated five hundred skills, he can be promoted to a disciple of the true disciple.
After a true disciple accumulates two thousand gong, he can be promoted to the highest secret pavilion disciple.
Different disciples have different permissions. For example, He Lian, if he wants to obtain the third-turn technique of the "Five-turn Spiritual Fire Technique" required for cultivation in the Dan-formation stage, he must at least become a true disciple.
It has been half a year since He Lian returned to the mountain. This is his second time to submit a commission.
"Well, the quality is not bad, a little above average, but still average. I have to keep working hard."
As he spoke, the fat middle-aged man gave He Lian a mediocre evaluation and gave He Lian a jade plaque representing a meritorious service. It also contained He Lian's name and the name of the evaluator.
This pine pattern magic sword is a standard low-grade magic weapon with a limit of only twenty-four, which is slightly higher than the top-grade spiritual weapon. He Lian receives it every three months and can complete it in more than ten days after returning home. It is also of high quality.
However, in the headquarters of this Taoist sect, it is not bad to get a moderate evaluation. As for who this good-looking person will be replaced by, He Lian doesn't care.
"Thank you, Deacon Fang. I will receive another commission for this pine pattern sword."
Dealing with such people's insincerity and compromise is a survival skill that He Lian has honed long ago in Yuanxia Immortal City. Although his achievements have been corrupted, he will not lose his temper at all.
"take it."
The fat middle-aged man casually threw a bag over, which contained the materials for the Song Wen Magic Sword. The master's commission generally did not involve spiritual stones, but there was only one material. If there was any shortage, you had to make up for it yourself. If the refining failed, you had to make up for it yourself.
, or even if your appearance is too poor to get a lower grade, you will be sent back to practice again.
He Lian only came to Shigong Hall twice before he knew why Liu Zhifeng's entry into the country had been so slow in recent years. He heard that when Liu Zhifeng came to submit a commission for the first time, a medium-to-high-quality artifact was judged to be inferior, and there was a quarrel.
Later, the boss was alarmed. Although the artifact made up for it at the time, as for later, I had to taste it myself.
"Come and submit earlier next time. Maybe if I'm in a good mood, I'll give you a good sentence!"
The fat middle-aged man shouted at He Lian's leaving figure. This cat-and-mouse behavior only made He Lian feel that this person was even more evil than the former shopkeeper Chen of Jinguang Pavilion, and he felt a sense of murder in his heart.
But he was quickly suppressed by He Lian.
"Disciple, try your best."
He Lian turned around and said goodbye without stopping.
After returning to the small courtyard, He Lian put aside the materials for the pine pattern sword and immediately entered the weapon refining room.
"With this Taoist sect as the leader, I can just complete three tasks a year. If I really want to achieve success, that will happen in the future. In this way, I will have more than five months of leisure, and I have to hurry up and finish the things I am doing.
Only then can there be a breakthrough in cultivation.
Fortunately, Uncle Zou didn't stop me from taking the "technical examination". Otherwise, if I had to go to the teaching hall every day, I would be unable to do anything and would have to suffer."
While his mind was spinning, He Lian turned his attention to the two pairs of boots that were burning in white flames in the weapon refining room.
In the past six months, in addition to refining a few pine pattern magic swords, he was practicing while refining the spiritual tools ordered by Jubao Pavilion. After all the spiritual tools were delivered, he began to refine these two spiritual tools.
A pair of shoes, a defensive weapon customized by Fang Lan, a casual cultivator.
"This water refining method is a little slower than expected. It's because I failed to complete the "Fifth Transformation Fire Spirit Art" and can only refining it with cold light flames."
Since the copperhead python skin sent earlier was in good condition with no obvious holes or leaks, He Lian decided to make two pairs of boots from the beginning.
Although the copper-headed python is only a first-level low-grade monster, it is covered in python skin and is difficult to be injured by ordinary low-grade magic weapons. Especially the python skin on the head can withstand mid-grade magic weapons. Therefore, the skin on the whole body is generally a first-level mid-grade magic weapon.
The spiritual material, the head python skin can be classified as a first-class high-grade spiritual material.
Therefore, when refining two pairs of boots, one pair will not be able to use the head python skin, and the quality will be much lower.
He Lian named the boots Tongyuan boots, 'tong'tong' copper', Yuan means Yuanchen iron. Naming it directly after the material seems tacky and random, but in fact this magic weapon is He Lian's reference to the famous best magic weapon
Although the refining method improved from the 'Star Boots' is limited by materials and is a method for refining mid-grade magic weapons, in terms of defensive effectiveness, it is not inferior to the Star Boots.
He Lian's refining idea is based on the word "defense", taking the power of the star element in Yuan Chen Iron to prohibit communication to form a layer of star element protection, and then combining it with the sky thunder wood and copper-headed python skin to form a better
The simple defense ability of the skin and bones of the copper-headed python finally achieves the effect of being able to carry a high-grade magic weapon.
The idea is great, but it is not easy to realize.
As a medium-grade magic weapon, Tongyuan Boots has sixty-four restrictions, but fortunately, the boots are paired magic weapons. Their essence is a combined magic weapon. The two can be refined separately, and then used as a pair.
When several prohibitions complement each other, the combined effect of mana control can be achieved.
Therefore, each shoe has thirty-two restraints. However, since the upper must be made from a single piece of python skin, it is difficult to separate it into three parts using the splitting and refining method. He Lian finally disassembled it into Yuanchen Iron as a 'driving' component.
The sole, and the python upper that carries the 'hub' and 'core' parts.
The sole's 'driving' effect has nine restrictions, but He Lian also placed the two 'combination' restrictions used to communicate with another shoe on the sole. If the sole has eleven restrictions, the upper will naturally
There are twenty-one prohibitions.
After He Lian broke through the third level of Qi training, he could outline seventeen restrictions at a time. With the double-sided dip-dyeing method and the glazed tripod, it was quite refinable.
The refining of Tongyuan boots is different from before. In addition to the fact that Yuanchen iron needs to be refining and shaping with fire, the overall refining method is water refining.
First wash the python skin with submerged water, then use cold flames and stone core sand to nitrate it, then soak it with first-level medium-grade spiritual materials and sal tree oil, and finally shape and condense it, add Tianlei wood as the shoe bone, and then proceed.
Next process.
Taking water refining as the main method, there are nearly two hundred refining processes for this magical instrument.
It took He Lian almost a month to complete the more than 100 prerequisite processes.
It has been two months of water refining now, and it looks like it is almost completed, probably within the next few days.
Although the process of water refining is complicated and time-consuming, one advantage is that there is no need to control the fire in the third step of calcination, and only the cold flame needs to be injected regularly, which does not delay the practice.
A few days later.
Seeing the two pairs of boots becoming primitive and dark in the white flames, with a faint blue light flashing in them, He Lian nodded with satisfaction, knowing that the refining was finally complete.
[Tongyuan Boots: It can activate the power of the stars to protect the body. In addition, it can be used to cover certain parts of the body with copper leather thunder bones for defense. 】
[Grade: Mid-grade magic weapon]
[Entry: Not consecrated]
It is a little different from what He Lian had thought before. Perhaps the auxiliary material of this item is the second-order low-grade spiritual material Yuanchen Iron, and the first-order high-grade spiritual material Tianlei wood is added to it. Both pairs of boots are finished as mid-grade magic weapons.
The only difference between them is that the pair of boots using the copper head part of the copperhead python skin has slightly stronger protective capabilities.
"It seems that this pair of boots has put the cart before the horse. It uses higher-grade spiritual materials as a supplement and lower-grade spiritual materials as the main one. It is indeed confusing. But it is used as a word-of-mouth work to build reputation. I guess it is
Not bad.”
He Lian shook his head and laughed. It took three months to refine these two pairs of boots. It really took a lot of hard work. Even if he knew that there was something wrong with the initial refining plan, He Lian would not deny himself.
"Leave the copper-headed pair to Fang Lan. I will use this pair for myself."
Since he decided to use it for his own use, He Lian naturally wanted to consecrate it. However, the previous time he asked for help from metaphysics, the effect was excellent and a golden entry was produced. He Lian still made some preparations this time. After a ceremony, he focused on the entry.
.
Consecration!
A blue light flashed!
The occult is in effect again!
[Tongyuan Boots: It can activate the power of the stars to protect the body. In addition, it can be used to cover certain parts of the body with copper leather thunder bones for defense. 】
[Grade: High-grade magic weapon]
[Entry: Instantaneous (blue) can move the instantaneous form within a certain range in a very short time. 】
He Lian's face was filled with joy, he immediately put on the boots and activated his ability.
Whoosh!
He Lian's figure suddenly turned into a shadow in the weapon refining room, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of his courtyard.
"The moving range is tens of feet, but activating this entry ability consumes too much mana. In just this moment, I have consumed 70 to 80% of the mana in my body."
With his current level of cultivation, it is still too reluctant to use this 'instantaneous' ability, but it must be said that with this ability, if he has a means of saving his life, He Lian will naturally be very satisfied.
Half a month later.
The young woman surnamed Shi received the message and came to pick up the goods.
"Prior to this, fellow Taoist sent a message saying that this thing was made, and fellow Taoist Fang was extremely happy.
However, Fellow Daoist Fang is a casual cultivator and does not have enough spiritual stones. In addition, he has encountered some things recently and cannot collect so many spiritual stones at the same time, so he entrusted me to bring this package of materials. I hope Fellow Daoist He can deduct one or two of them."
With that said, the young woman surnamed Shi handed over a storage bag, and He Lian took it and inspected it briefly.
The materials in this storage bag are a bit mixed. There are seven or eight kinds. Not only are they of different grades, but the weights of each are also different. Some are like original submersed sand, weighing seven or eighty kilograms, while some are only one or two.
Two, but these two or two items are actually second-level middle-grade spiritual materials, insect stones.
In addition, there was a black stone about the size of a head. He Lian could not tell what material it was made of, but there was an occasional flash of yellow light in the object, indicating that it was extraordinary.
"My pavilion values this bag of materials at six hundred spirit stones."
The young woman surnamed Shi gave a reference price, and He Lian nodded. After all, one or two taels of insect stones would be worth about three hundred spirit stones.
He Lian made his own estimate and found that the valuation of the six hundred hundred spirit stones was still on the low side, almost not including the price of the black stone. However, He Lian vaguely felt that this object should be something extraordinary.
Chapter completed!
