Chapter 36 Copper Essence, Heart Refining

 "Fire Crow?"

Xie Duanyang raised his eyebrows, showing interest, but his heart was calm.

Of course he knew about the fire crow. It was a very common monster. It was naturally fond of fire and could breathe flames at its mouth to attack the enemy.

But similar to spiritual insects, a single fire crow is not very powerful. It has to be in groups, and only when there are dozens of them can it be considered significant.

But in this case, the problem is still that, instead of wasting so many resources on spiritual beasts, it is better to use them to improve one's own cultivation.

Therefore, Fire Crow's positioning is a bit embarrassing.

If you breed more, the price/performance ratio is not enough. If you only raise one or two, your personal strength will not increase much.

However, monsters generally have a long lifespan, and breeding of fire crows is not as difficult as other monsters.

It is extremely cost-effective for a cultivating family or sect to raise a group of them.

Old Man Han's own cultivation level is just like that. If the Fire Crow cultivation level he is willing to use reaches the first-intermediate level, a fourth or fifth level of Qi training will be enough.

Not being able to release a few mouthfuls of demonic fire every day, and having to focus on taking care of it, is better than nothing for me.

Compared to this, Xie Duanyang is more curious about what the old guy wants him to do.

After all, without mentioning the secular martial arts that the other party would never take seriously.

If you reveal yourself, the only thing that is likely to attract the other party is your forging skills.

"Oh, my family's inheritance is scattered, so maybe I don't know about this fire crow."

Seeing Xie Duanyang wanting to ask but not daring to ask, Old Man Han stroked his long beard and laughed.

"That's what the world calls a monster. Of course, this one was trained by the Han family since childhood and is determined not to hurt anyone.

Xie Xiaoyou is an iron smelter. If you can get the help of this fire crow, you may save a lot of effort in smelting in the future."

As he spoke, the old man surnamed Han untied the spirit beast bag around his waist, and a black light and shadow flew out of it.

After hovering around the house for a week, the mysterious shadow fell on the old man's shoulder, turning into a crow, looking sideways at Xie Duanyang, who had an unfamiliar smell.

"Look good, little friend!"

The old man surnamed Han patted the crow's head gently, and saw the fire crow spread its wings, and the black and red light wandered around the body for a week before converging on the head.

With a "croak" sound, the fire crow opened its mouth and spit out a fireball not much smaller than its own body, which landed on the huanghuali table in the room.

The air suddenly became hot.

The blazing flames enveloped several cases, and the tongues of fire leaped several feet high.

In just two or three breaths, the flame dissipates and goes out.

The wooden table disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed, leaving only a small pile of black residue in its original position.

The power is almost as powerful as the "Fire Bullet Technique" issued by the sixth and seventh levels of Qi training.

However, after spitting out the fireball, the fire crow became visibly sluggish.

Xie Duanyang calculated that five pills a day is already its limit.

"How about this, is this fire crow still worthy of your attention?

If you have it in your hand, not to mention smelting and forging, you can survive in the secular world."

Without taking back the fire crow, the old man looked at Xie Duanyang with a smile, showing a complex expression of shock, envy, and fear.

"This kind of spiritual beast is so precious and powerful that I can own it.

Besides, the immortals have vast magical powers, so what effect can a villain’s meager skills have on him..."

Xie Duanyang said this, but his eyes did not leave Huo Ya for a moment.

The old man surnamed Han waved his hand, "Little friend, please don't underestimate yourself, you just don't have spiritual roots and can't practice.

Otherwise, with this craftsmanship, I will not be humiliated in the world of immortality.

I wonder if my little friends have ever heard of the art of ‘heart refining’…”

At the same time, the old man took out a volume of handwritten books from the storage bag.

Xie Duanyang thought well. The old man sought him out for the purpose of refining weapons.

His grandson, Han Yuntian, has good aptitudes and has great hope of improving his cultivation to the eleventh level in ten years and grabbing a Foundation Building Pill at the Immortal Ascension Conference.

However, the battle of skills is not just a competition of cultivation and mana.

Even during the Qi training period, spells are too slow to activate and are far less useful than magic weapons.

However, the finest among the top-grade magical instruments also cost one hundred, fifty or sixty spiritual stones, which is quite expensive.

The old man has been saving for decades and has a net worth of about a hundred dollars, but most of it has to be used for his grandson in exchange for elixirs and the like, and the rest is not enough.

So he started thinking about refining his own weapons.

The reason why the old man surnamed Han had this idea was actually because he had a small piece of copper essence in his hand that could only be used to refine magic weapons.

The weight is not big, but it is still worth two to three hundred spiritual stones. He got it by chance when he was young.

If you can use this object to refine a defensive magic weapon, unless you encounter a "talisman treasure", it can be said that no one can break it during the Qi training period, and you will always be invincible.

Ever since he got it, he has been hiding it tightly, and the head of the family has no idea about it.

It's not like he hasn't thought about selling it in exchange for spiritual stones, but this thing is too eye-catching.

Very few people in the Qi training period have such a fortune to buy it.

When dealing with the foundation-building period, not only the channel is concerned, but also the worry that the other party will take advantage of the money and wonder if there is more, causing a lot of trouble.

If you hand it over to the family, the value will be greatly reduced. If you can get a hundred or so spiritual stones, it will be considered good.

The old man also knew that he was not qualified enough. Even if he sold the copper essence, he would not be able to build a foundation, so it would take more than thirty years to cover it up.

Until now, the time has come to actually activate it.

He had carefully looked at Xie Duanyang's works and found that they could do this just by using fine iron, fine copper and other materials. Even the weapon refiners trained in the family would be hard-pressed to do better.

It can even be said that he is a born magical weapon embryo.

As long as you mix some spiritual materials, or have a cultivation level of fifth or sixth level, you may be able to develop a lower-level magic weapon.

If you have your own help, it is not impossible to obtain an intermediate magical weapon.

The best thing is that Xie Duanyang has extraordinary skills, but he doesn’t know much about the world of immortality.

It is difficult to know the true value of copper essence, and there is no way to leak the news.

Of course, if a treasure like copper essence is truly successfully refined, it must be a top-quality magical weapon.

But in that case, the weapon refining master of the foundation level must personally take action to possibly conflict with the old man.

And with ordinary techniques and Qi training levels, basically don’t expect to be able to refine this thing.

But since he has found Xie Duanyang, he naturally has confidence.

It is this so-called "heart refining" technique that can transcend the limitations of cultivation and forcibly refine spiritual materials such as copper essence.

It's just that this method is quite partial, and what is refined through this sacrifice has some properties similar to those of a magic weapon.

It can only be used by the original owner. Even if it dies, outsiders will not be able to use it to exert its power, and can only rework it.

But in this way, the effort spent is actually not less valuable than the original value.

But for the elderly, this is not a disadvantage, but a huge advantage.

As long as it is refined, even if someone knows about it, there is no need to worry about how the master's title will be used to force it to be handed over to other direct descendants.
