Creating your own magic weapon is undoubtedly an extremely expensive job.
Among the inheritance of the fourth-level weapon refiner that Zhou Minghan received, there happened to be the experience summary made by that weapon refiner on his own magic weapon. This is why he suggested that Zhou Yang try to create his own magic weapon.
According to the records on the weapon refining inheritance, if the weapon refining master wants to create his own magic weapon, it is best to try common sword-type magic weapons, because the refining materials of this type of magic weapon usually do not require too much, in terms of error tolerance.
, it is not comparable to flying needles, daggers and other small magic weapons.
Even so, the spiritual stones that should be burned still have to be burned. A weapon refiner with an average fortune really cannot afford to play this kind of money-burning game.
Zhou Yang dared to practice this way because he had a mine at home.
In order to create his own magical weapon, he directly intercepted 30% of the output of the Red Flame Iron Ore Vein and the Concentrated Iron Ore Vein and used it to refine the first-level high-grade magical weapon "Flame Sword".
With his current level of cultivation and weapon refining skills, it would take no more than two quarters of an hour to refine a first-level magic weapon, and the success rate is 100%.
But that refers to refining a magic weapon that already has a refining map. If you want to create your own magic weapon, of course you can't do this.
Therefore, he took the initiative to extend the time for refining a magic weapon to one hour, and in order to increase the success rate, he did not hesitate to use "Qianyang True Fire" to temper the impurities in the raw materials.
The "Flame Sword" he envisioned must have a magic ban "Fire Flame". This magic ban consists of six rune nodes and twelve spiritual patterns connecting the rune nodes. These runes and spiritual patterns must
It is integrated into the sword embryo completely and coherently, forming a perfect cycle.
The original structural shape of the first-order magic weapon "Flame Knife" is the most suitable shape for the "Fire Flame" magic weapon.
But now, Zhou Yang has to modify the original arrangement of the "raging flame" magic ban without changing the overall shape of the sword embryo, and finally modify the "raging flame" magic ban that is suitable for sword-type magic weapons.
This is undoubtedly extremely difficult. The arrangement of the "Fire Flame" spells in the "Flame Knife" is the optimal choice that the senior weapon refiners found after countless attempts. It is already very stable and mature.
He now wants to change the arrangement of the "Magic Forbidden". Even slightly changing the position of a rune node or the arc of the spiritual pattern may cause the Magical Forbidden to become ineffective, thereby destroying the embryo of the magic weapon.
Every time he failed, Zhou Yang would use his spiritual consciousness to record the point of his failure in a blank jade slip, and then test new combinations by comparing the results recorded every day.
Whenever this happens, Zhou Yang will miss the mobile phone and computer in his previous life. Although the jade slips can also record a large amount of knowledge and information, compared with computers and mobile phones, neither the storage capacity nor the convenience of recording are on the same level.
Why do immortal cultivators have to be at the foundation level or above before they can use jade slips to record knowledge and information?
The reason is that only the spiritual consciousness of monks in the foundation-building period after transformation and condensation can preserve the information left in the jade slips for a long time and prevent them from dissipating quickly.
Spring turned to autumn, winter passed to summer solstice, and in the blink of an eye, the blank jade slips Zhou Yang used to record information had filled a three-layer cabinet. The total number of jade slips up and down had exceeded 800!
Eight hundred jade slips represent 800 first-level magical artifacts. If calculated based on the market price of ten low-grade spiritual stones for one first-order magical artifact on the market, that would be eight thousand low-grade spiritual stones!
After burning eight thousand low-grade spiritual stones in two years, even though Zhou Yang's family owned a mine, he felt it was too much and he had to stop this money-burning game.
As the patriarch, of course he has the right to use family resources to practice cultivation, but the patriarch cannot waste family resources like this!
So the spiritual stones he is burning now are actually going to be used in the family finances.
According to the calculation that refining a magic weapon requires the consumption of red flame iron materials worth three spiritual stones, his more than 800 jade slips are more than 2,500 low-grade spiritual stones, plus the cost of making and purchasing blank jade slips.
, he owed at least three thousand low-grade spiritual stones to his family.
He does not need to pay back this spiritual stone now, but it will be deducted from his family's future offerings.
And the family contribution points he currently owes, due to the original purchase of the Foundation Establishment Pill and several third-level magic weapons taken from the family treasury, have reached more than 20,000 points. This is still the "Blood Demon Secret" he dedicated
"Skill", the result after deducting 10,000 contribution points.
Based on his annual contribution of 300 points, it would take at least seventy or eighty years to repay this debt.
This is what he can do as a foundation-building monk and the patriarch of the family. Otherwise, if he were an ordinary family monk, Zhou Xuanlin, who is responsible for managing the family's finances, would have come to collect debts in person.
What made Zhou Yang most depressed and heartbroken was that he burned so many spiritual stones for experiments, but achieved very few results, and never succeeded.
If you want to advance to level 3 weapon refiner, there is still no hope.
The only thing that comforted him was that although his own career had not gone smoothly, his family's business had been booming and going smoothly in the past few years.
More than five years have passed since he established the foundation and returned to the family to take over as patriarch.
In five years, the family branch on the Baisha River Oasis has officially established a firm foothold, and through the "Fengyue Tower" has provided the family with six newborns with spiritual roots, including a baby girl with medium-grade spiritual roots.
In addition, after five years of preparation, the Chen family has rebuilt an immortal cultivator's market on a third-level middle-grade spiritual vein on Baituoling, and named it "Ping'an City". It is said that the Chen family's first
Li Ping'an, the foundation-building monk, plans to stay there all year round.
According to the original promise of the Chen family, the Zhou family received two shops for free in the newly built "Ping'an Fang City" and re-hung the signs of "Yuquan Building" and "Zuixian Building". Zhou Yang's father Zhou Xuanhao also
Officially stationed in Fangshi and became one of the monks stationed in Fangshi.
On the family side, the current eldest elder of the Zhou family, Zhou Xuantai, was successfully promoted to a second-level low-level formation mage. Seventeenth uncle Zhou Xuanzhao was also successfully promoted to a second-level beast tamer by taming the hatched "Flame-Eating Spider".
Both aspects enhance the family heritage.
In addition, the eleventh uncle Zhou Xuankun also broke through to the ninth level of Qi training and became the fifth elder of the Zhou family. Among the other monks of the "Xuan" generation and the "Yuan" generation, there are also many people who have experienced breakthrough growth in their cultivation.
Furthermore, the number of newborns in the family has increased significantly in the past five years. There have been as many as twelve newborns with spiritual root qualifications, including one high-grade spiritual root and two mid-grade spiritual roots.
In this way, excluding the five "Yuan" generation babies born from the "Xuan" generation, the number of "Guang" generation monks in the next generation of the Zhou family has reached fifteen.
Because there were too many babies born at the same time, Zhou Yang had to ask the old patriarch Zhou Minghan to build a monk school on Yuquan Peak, so that all children aged five years old could enter the school to learn the knowledge of cultivating immortals, and he also took the time to teach it in person.
A few classes.
On this day, while Zhou Yang was practicing in his bedroom, he suddenly received a letter from Feijian, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, asking him to go to Yuquan Peak to discuss an urgent matter.
After receiving the letter, he did not dare to neglect. He immediately went to his mother Lin Yuting and eighth aunt Zhou Xuanyan to explain the situation, and then released his flying sword and flew to the Yuquan Lake Oasis.
As soon as he rushed back to Yuquan Peak, he was immediately called into the cave by the old clan leader to discuss matters.
"Today, Chen Pingzhi suddenly used a third-level high-grade messenger flying sword to send me a letter from four thousand miles away, asking you to go to the Baisha River Oasis to do something for him. He didn't say anything in the letter. What do you think?"
In the cave at the top of the mountain, while talking about the purpose of calling Zhou Yang over in a hurry, Zhou Minghan took out a small golden sword over two feet long and handed it to him.
This small golden sword is refined using the third-level spiritual object "Red Profound Fine Gold". Every foundation-building monk in the Chen family will receive such a sword refined with "Red Profound Fine Gold" after building a foundation.
The third-level high-grade messenger flying sword is used to send messages to the family at critical moments.
Although the value of this kind of flying sword used for communication is not as high as that of the flying sword used in the same level of fighting, it is still worth at least thousands of spirit stones. A glimpse of it can reveal the whole leopard. This shows how deep the background of a Zifu family like the Chen family is.
You must know that even a great sect like Huang Shamen cannot afford to have each of his foundation-building monks possess a third-level high-grade communication flying sword.
Zhou Yang played with the flying sword in his hand, thought carefully for a while, then looked at the old patriarch and asked: "Great-grandfather, what do you think? Judging from your experience, if Chen Pingzhi asks me to help him, what exactly will it be?"
matter?"
Zhou Minghan had obviously thought about this question. When he heard him ask this question, he immediately replied: "According to the information I have learned in the past few years, Chen Laozu has not only not given up searching for the whereabouts of the bandits who attacked the oasis, but
Chen family monks and hired casual cultivators were sent many times to search for traces of the bandits in the surrounding sand sea, and as a result, several new small oases and spiritual veins were even discovered."
"According to my estimation, Chen Pingzhi should have learned about the location of a certain senior monk's cave or the information about a certain rare spiritual object from some lucky monk."
"He doesn't want to share this benefit with the Chen family, so he asked you, an outsider who owes him a favor, to accompany him on the adventure."
This explanation is quite reasonable, and Zhou Yang also knows that in a big family like the Chen family that has been passed down for seven to eight hundred years, some dirty things will inevitably happen.
As the half-brother of Chen Ping'an, Chen Pingzhi will definitely be squeezed out by other Chen family foundation-building monks as his brother Chen Ping'an occupies a large amount of the family's resources. He himself probably does not want to share his wealth with those people.
Opportunity.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but follow the old patriarch's words and mutter to himself: "He didn't want to share his opportunity with the Chen family, but he didn't call his brother Li Ping'an. It seems that this opportunity is not too big, so
If so, the danger should not exceed the foundation building level."
"It should be like this." Zhou Minghan nodded, agreeing with his speculation.
"In this case, great-grandfather will reply to him Feijian Chuanxin, saying that I agree, and rush to Baisha River Oasis to meet him later." Zhou Yang pondered for a moment, and quickly made his choice.
He made this choice firstly because he wanted to exchange Chen Pingzhi's favor, secondly because he had not seen him for several years, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to visit his father at the Baisha River Oasis and bring his mother there to reunite with his father. Thirdly, he wanted to grow up.
See and experience the life of immortal cultivators teaming up for adventure.
After he made his choice, he handed the communication flying sword in his hand to the old patriarch, and then watched the old patriarch inject a lot of mana into the flying sword, inspiring the flying sword to turn into a golden light and fly through the air in the direction of the Baisha River Oasis.
