However, so far, Lin Xuan has not figured out the purpose of this monster. He has checked many ancient books and found no clues.
When the little guy saw Lin Xuan, he immediately ran over and climbed on his body a few times, looking very affectionate. This was naturally because he recognized his master with blood.
Lin Xuan played with it for a while and left the spirit beast room.
Don't worry, Lin Xuan believes that this monster is by no means useless. As for its abilities, it won't be too late to study it slowly when you have time.
After resting for a few more days, Lin Xuan started refining the Ten Thousand Soul Flags again.
…
This process lasted for three years.
During this period, Lin Xuan failed eight or nine times.
Although compared with the Nether Heart-Breaking Sword and the Nine Heavens Bright Moon Ring, the refining of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner is relatively simple, and Lin Xuan has no experience in refining magic weapons, so failure is normal.
Fortunately, the existence of the Blue Star Sea freed him from worries. At worst, he could purify it and start over again.
With Lin Xuan's tenacious character, he would not take this mere difficulty to heart. Instead, he regarded it as a kind of tempering for himself. His understanding of the blue star sea has also been further deepened. In the past, it was just pills, but now he has a deep understanding of the materials. Purification is equally easy.
In the alchemy room.
Lin Xuan sat cross-legged with a solemn expression. In front of him, there was a golden pill fire the size of a fist floating.
"go!"
Lin Xuan pointed at the Dan Fire, which immediately turned into a vortex and sucked in several colorful mists.
Then Lin Xuan opened his mouth and spit out the Mysterious Fire God Bead.
…
after one day.
Lin Xuan looked at the stick in his hand, which was about the size of a thumb and about a foot long, with a look of satisfaction on his face. After three years of hard work, he finally completed the most difficult and important step of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.
The next thing to do is to seal the soul.
Lin Xuan sank his consciousness into the storage bag and quickly rummaged through to find a jade box. The lid of the box was opened, and inside lay a palm-sized, dark, animal-skin-like object.
Although this thing is inconspicuous, Lin Xuan spent tens of thousands of crystal stones for it.
The refining of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner naturally requires something to make the banner. It is said that the Extreme Demon Lord killed an old monster in the Nascent Soul Stage and peeled off his skin. Lin Xuan neither has such strength nor can he be so cruel. , and besides, he wanted to seal the beast soul, so he chose animal skin.
Theoretically, the higher the level of this monster, the better.
In the past three years, every time Lin Xuan failed in refining, he would go out for a few days to relax and look for suitable animal skins.
Finally, about half a year ago, when he attended a secret shop auction in a certain giant city, he spent a huge amount of money to buy the skin of this soul-departing beast.
The soul-living beast itself is a fourth-level low-grade monster. In terms of magical power, it can be compared with the old monsters in the early stage of Yuanying. In addition, it is a Yin attribute, so Lin Xuan is determined to win it.
However, there were naturally a lot of people snatching the materials from a monster of this level, but when it came to the crystals, Lin Xuan was not inferior to anyone. In the end, he got it for a sky-high price of 50,000 crystals.
Although it is a bit expensive, Lin Xuan feels that it is worth the money. With his ability, how can he suffer a loss?
Lin Xuan took out the animal skin from the box, sandwiched it between his two palms, laid it flat on his chest, rubbed it gently, and a ball of golden flame came out.
The refining of this animal hide is much simpler. It only requires a little flame calcination.
This only takes about half a day. During this period, Lin Xuan added some auxiliary materials from time to time.
It was already late soon. Lin Xuan looked at the roughly formed flag with a look of satisfaction on his face. Then he started to run the Yin and Yang technique, and black air came out from his body, wrapping the stick and flag together.
Seeing that the two were about to merge into one under the control of Yin spirit power, Lin Xuan opened his mouth and suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.
After the blood left the body, it was immediately absorbed by the black mist and penetrated into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
Since it is a natal magic weapon, of course it is inevitable to have such a ceremony to recognize its owner.
After a long time, the black mist receded. Lin Xuan waved his hand, and the Ten Thousand Souls Flag returned to his palm.
Strictly speaking, this treasure has been refined, and the last step to be done now is to seal the beast soul into it.
Lin Xuan took out the ancient jade, admired it for a while, threw it into the air, then made orchid fingers with his right hand, and inserted a magic formula into it.
Woo, the dark wind picked up, and a cloud of black air appeared out of thin air in the stone chamber. In the black air, a tiger covered in flames appeared faintly.
Iron-armored Explosive Flame Tiger!
The first-level monster beast, what is in front of you is its soul.
As soon as this demonic beast escaped the restraint of the ancient jade, it immediately roared and rushed towards Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan turned a blind eye. This demon soul looked ferocious, but when it was alive, it was only equivalent to a cultivator in the Dzogchen realm of the spiritual movement stage. To him, a cultivator in the condensation stage, it was extremely weak and posed no threat at all. .
Lin Xuan raised his hand, and a black light flew out, turning into a giant hand several feet long, holding the beast soul in his palm. The opponent naturally struggled desperately, but unfortunately it had no effect at all.
Then Lin Xuan gently shook the small flag in his hand, and countless small black lines shot out from it, wrapping the beast soul layer by layer, like a big rice dumpling, until the opponent could no longer move, and then was slowly sucked into the magic flag. in.
Even though this process was simple, Lin Xuan worked on it wholeheartedly. After the success, he was even more delighted. The reason was very simple. The idea was just an idea after all. The Ten Thousand Soul Banner recorded in the Mysterious Demon Scripture should absorb the souls of living people, and Now it has been proven that it is indeed feasible to replace it with animal soul.
Lin Xuan struck a magic spell on the floating ancient jade and took out the second beast soul from inside.
…
A year later, the door to Lin Xuan's alchemy room finally opened.
It took Lin Xuan more than three hundred days to seal all the thousands of beast souls in the jade pendant into the magic flag.
This process was more difficult than he imagined. The souls of the low-level monsters in the front were fine. Although they struggled desperately, their resistance was limited. But as the levels of the monsters increased, it really cost him a lot of effort.
Especially the four third-level monsters, whose strength was not inferior to the masters at the Dan Condensation stage. After Lin Xuan released them, he really went through a difficult fight.
Defeat it first, but you can't kill it. Instead, you can take advantage of the opponent's energy consumption and when he is weak, and then inhale the demon flags one by one.
However, with these powerful demonic beasts as leaders, the power of my treasure will naturally be even greater. And after absorbing so many beast souls, the color of the demonic flag also began to change, and the entire demon flag was as black as ink. , holding it in your hand, you can feel an eerie and strange aura.
Lin Xuan inhaled it into his body. Since it is a natal magic weapon, it naturally needs to be nourished with the soul. In this way, not only can the mind and spirit be unified, but the power will also be more satisfying.
In order to distinguish it from the treasure of the Extreme Demon Lord and based on the material it was made of, Lin Xuan renamed it the Beast Soul Banner.
