Compared with the two medium-sized magic weapons [Fire Meteor Sword] and [Cold Water Shield], the refining of the high-grade magic weapon [Five Elements Flag] is more laborious. A single earth vein the size of a fingernail is enough to be burned by the cold netherworld fire.
It took almost a day and a night before it gradually melted.
During this period, not only did he rely on his perfect "Fire Control Technique" to maintain a constant temperature of the black flames, but he also woven silkworm silk into a flag by hand.
It's not that He Zhao is ingenious, but that in the "Encyclopedia of Advanced Utensil Patterns", the owner of Ping'an Boutique was very considerate and came up with a fool-proof weaving method.
"I'm exhausted."
He mumbled something in his mouth, and threw in the golden wood heart, the water heart bead, and the silk wood silk flag in order.
If it weren't for the fact that the earth's fire couldn't burn and melt the earth's veins, why bother waiting in the vessel room for twelve hours?
As long as there is a powerful flame, it is more than that.
Unfortunately, Hellfire is the cheapest and most common flame recorded in the book, and it can quickly turn earth veins into solution in a short period of time.
Other fires, regardless of their rarity, are simply unavailable to merchants. Even if they were available, the cost of refining the [Five Elements Flag] would probably double and rise.
"If I hadn't had experience in refining the [Evil-Suppressing Sword], I might have messed up halfway and ended up vomiting blood."
With a sigh, he held the seal with both hands, used the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit to pull the melted earth veins to form a series of weapon patterns, and imprinted them one by one.
More than a dozen types of vessel patterns were successfully engraved, and the dark fire in the furnace was also exhausted.
"boom--"
A small flag as big as a palm flew out of the stove and automatically fell into his hand.
He picked it up and looked carefully. The dark golden flagpole was inlaid with a water-blue bead. The white flag was imprinted with khaki patterns, and the edge was inlaid with a black border with flame patterns.
"Five Elements Flag."
"Buzz——"
He poured evil energy into the flag, and an earthy-yellow halo covered his whole body in an instant.
Just like the shell of an egg, the rich light drowns people, making it impossible for the outside world to see clearly what's going on inside.
Moreover, the shell shape is absolutely defensive, with a hexagonal grid-like pattern on it.
"It's interesting."
He took out the Fire Meteor Sword from the Qiankun Bag, pointed it at the defense formed by the earth veins, and stabbed it hard with the sword.
"Qiang——"
A huge rebound was transmitted through the sword to the arm and to the whole body.
"Share?"
He could clearly sense that the power of the stabbing was transmitted from one point to the entire shell-shaped defense through the grid, and he effortlessly neutralized the Fire Meteor Sword's blow.
In addition, a stab from a medium-sized magic weapon consumed some of the evil spirit in his body.
Although absolute defense is powerful, it is not invincible and has its shortcomings.
"The earth veins are extremely hard, and some spell bombardments may be in vain. In addition, the combination of the weapon patterns carefully studied by the owner of Ping Anbo, it is estimated that the treasure weapon cannot be broken open.
Unless I am a demon refining warrior in the Dan Realm, holding a high-quality treasure weapon with outstanding attack power, and exerting it with all my strength, it will exhaust all my evil energy. Otherwise, I will be invincible."
He put away the [Five Elements Flag], put it in his arms close to his body, and turned to look at the window.
The dazzling sunlight fell on the floor. It was already the afternoon of the second day.
"It's time to rest."
He stood up groggily and walked out the door, returned to the master bedroom and fell into a deep sleep.
From the time I started refining the magic weapon, I never paid attention to the message prompts that popped up three times.
[+500 proficiency (perfect)]
[+500 proficiency (perfect)]
[+1000 proficiency (perfect)]
[Proficiency: 128200 (perfect)]
The next day, he resumed his normal schedule. He didn't need to eat when he got up in the morning. He drew an advanced talisman and practiced drawing talismans out of thin air. Then he performed the Gathering Evil Formation Pain six times a day.
One month has passed by in a blink of an eye, and the water-based evil energy entrenched in the five internal organs has increased to three-fifths. In another two months, it will be completely filled.
Last time, one "Golden Light Talisman" was consumed due to the "Basic Weapon Pattern Encyclopedia", so he simply added one to round up the number of spells to 20.
Progress of drawing symbols out of thin air: 12 seconds.
After his five internal organs were filled with water-condensed evil spirits, he set aside a period of time to train to the point where a single thought or a high-level spell could be formed.
In the penultimate month, the water-based evil spirits entrenched in the five internal organs increased to four-fifths.
Progress of drawing symbols out of thin air: 10 seconds.
"The evil energy that protects the body seems to have become stronger. In addition, the amount of evil energy has increased tremendously. I can release spells casually and feel nothing. No, I have to find a place that is not covered by the Nine Ultimate Formation and test it."
Get up, quickly leave Qingshan Villa, and come to the place where the heart was once exchanged.
""Vajra Talisman", "Thunder Strike Talisman"."
Draw two spells out of thin air and cast them alternately.
The speed of release cannot keep up with the speed of recovery. Just one breath can completely make up for the consumption.
The next second, the fireball technique was activated, followed closely by the tornado technique, and the fire control technique greatly amplified the power of the fire evil spell.
A huge fireball with a diameter of five meters hovered above his head.
It is conceivable that once it is hit, it will be shocking.
It is obviously just a low-level spell, but with the addition of two other spells, its aura is no worse than that of a medium-level spell.
After the three spells are cast, the evil energy consumed is quickly recovered in one breath.
The pain experienced for several months was worth it. At least it was worthy of the title of a magic machine gun. As long as it was willing, it could continuously fire fireballs.
Not to mention that people in the Evil Refining Realm can't stop them, but those in the Pulse Building Realm will probably run away with their heads crossed.
"It's so fast, it's almost comparable to the blue buff in the game."
The next moment, start experimenting with the enhanced [body protection evil spirit].
Normally, the evil spirit used by evil spirits to protect the body is a thin layer of gas.
He is different now, there seems to be a layer of water flowing on his skin.
After a little experimentation, three characteristics were obtained: thick, hard, and mobile.
The evil spirit is much thicker than ordinary body protection. The medium-sized magical weapon Fire Meteor Sword can pierce it, but it is delayed for nearly half a second. Don't underestimate this small amount of time, because it is enough to activate the spell of He to save his life.
The Fire Meteor Sword is also extremely hard. Although the Fire Meteor Sword can penetrate into the body's evil spirit, it needs to be stabbed hard. According to his estimation, inferior magic weapons may not be able to penetrate it.
The last shift refers to the layer of water-like evil energy on the surface of the body, which is moving and flowing all the time. When the Fire Meteor Sword penetrated, it shifted uncontrollably, as if it was an operating error, and suddenly slid past.
Utensils and spells will also be transferred uncontrollably.
"Come here, let's meet the greyhounds."
This place is quite close to the archway. He Zhao used the magic movement technique + tornado technique and arrived at lightning speed.
"My benefactor? We are preparing to go find you."
"???"
Come to me, maybe the shops in Fang City want to make elixirs again.
"Tell us, have you completed the refining of evil spirits? If so, we will take you to the Three Color Pond. If it has not yet been completed, we can only wait until next year."
"Three Color Pond? What do you mean?"
In response to his doubts, the second child quickly came up and started talking.
"Evil Pond, in our Ping'an Fang, the three mineral veins of gold, fire, and earth are gathered together and entangled. The evil water they produce is a messy pool, which is not conducive to absorption.
Later, the owner of the workshop carefully studied the formation and built a pool at the dripping place. The three kinds of evil water were separated, each occupying one-third, and the lines were clearly defined. Over time, it became known as the three-color pool.
After absorbing a place of evil water, you can continue to build your pulse by moving your buttocks. It’s very convenient, but we brothers still like the three kinds of pool water mixed together. It feels numb and tingling when soaked, which is very comfortable."
"Just now, I have reached Consummation."
"Awesome!" X2.
They knew the ins and outs of the ruthless people. They had been practicing evil spirits for a few months, and they actually advanced to the Great Perfection.
"Extraordinary talent, extraordinary talent."
Yin Yang shook his head with a look of admiration, then tilted his head to look at his elder brother and continued.
"By the way, my benefactor's talent is no worse than the two of us."
"Um?"
He made a sound of doubt and asked tentatively.
"How long did it take you two to refine the evil spirit to perfection?"
Jin Yang was confused about this.
"Second brother, if I remember correctly, we were born to be together. When we open our eyes, it seems that we are in Dzogchen."
"That's right, if it weren't for the evil pond needed to build the pulse, we should be born with perfect pulse building."
The two brothers singing together can make someone shut up in an instant.
With you two together, why are you just teasing fools here?
"Hehe, please don't be angry, my dear friend. We are strange beasts. Even though we were born to refine evil spirits, we are still far away from the realm of conquering the elixir.
Under normal circumstances, it would take even hundreds of years. However, Yiren is different. The old man, the owner of the workshop, only took thirty years from the time he started refining evil spirits to taking the elixir."
When Mr. Wei was mentioned, Hanhan burst into tears.
Both of them may not be able to succeed in three hundred years. It takes thirty years for them to reach a point where they can silence the beast.
The beasts are compared to humans, and the beasts are angry to death.
"Since you have reached the Great Perfection of Demon Refining, we will take you to the Three Color Pond now. In a few days, it will be the end of the year celebration, and it is time to auction the quota. Build your pulse early, finish the work early, and save the time to take a bath with other people."
After saying this, it motioned for the man named He to ride up.
"brush!"
Sitting on the back of the golden lion, the two greyhounds moved very fast, and the surrounding scenery quickly receded.
After a while, they crossed the Qingshan Villa and entered the deeper mineral vein range.
Along the way, there was no obstruction, and the people responsible for patrol ignored one person and two animals.
Maybe, the owner of Ping'an Square has already said hello.
After all, it is the foundation of Fangshi. Without the old man's permission, the greyhounds might not be able to bring people in.
There is a saying that people either don't invest, but once they invest, they are really not stingy at all.
About five minutes later, we arrived at a cave entrance.
"The entrance to the mine and the inside are all puppets refined by the boss. Under the Nine Jue Formation, the puppets are extremely lethal. Even if you are in the Dan realm and are under siege, if you cannot break out in time, you will die."
After Jin Yi finished speaking, a group of ten people, covered in unknown steel, quickly passed by.
He Zhao clearly saw wisps of light scattering from the gaps in the steel.
"Did you see? If the two of us don't use magic and resist with our bodies alone, we can defeat five at most. If we are attacked by ten puppets, we will still have to stop."
"Shit, if it weren't for the gadgets in their hands and the support of the formation, I would definitely be able to hit ten of them." Yin Ni was not happy, why did the eldest brother always make others more prestige and destroy his own ambition.
"You mentioned the formation blessing. Even if you can cast spells, are you sure you can hit ten? Don't forget, even if the puppet is scattered or broken, it can be reborn with the help of mineral veins and recover completely."
In response to the boss's words, the silly second child curled his lips and said nothing.
Under the shroud of the formation, the puppets will never lack evil spirit.
In other words, there is a steady supply of energy, unless the formation or the mineral veins can be destroyed with one move. Otherwise, the own evil energy storage exceeds the total amount of the three mineral veins, and the evil energy in the dry ore will be used up.
"Stop talking nonsense and let's go."
After saying that, he carried the people into the cave entrance.
Inside the veins, there are evil jade crystals exposed everywhere, which can be broken off with just a hand.
"In the early days, when the owner established the market, he dug a lot of evil jade. Later, there was no need for ore supply, and the market could be self-sufficient, so they stopped digging.
I heard from the old man that a few decades ago, he walked down from the entrance of the cave until he was halfway to the core of the vein. Not to mention the evil jade, there was not even a piece of the Five Elements Stone."
In response, He Zhao frowned.
It's impossible. The formation of the evil jade definitely didn't happen overnight. Decades are not enough for recovery, right?
'Should it be due to the formation?'
One person and two lions, talking and going deep inside.
After traveling for dozens of miles, they finally arrived at their destination.
A pool the size of a natural hot spring comes into view.
Inside the pool, there are three distinct colors: gold, red, and earthy yellow, each occupying one-third.
A huge crystal shaped like a stalactite hangs down above the evil pool, and drops of evil water of different colors drip down every once in a while.
"Tick tock!" "Tick tock!"
"Take it off, we two brothers will protect you."
After Jin Yang finished speaking, Yin Yang glanced at his elder brother and mumbled.
"Protect Der, the puppets outside can't stop it, but it seems like we can."
"Crack!"
The boss didn't hesitate and slapped his brother on the back of the head.
If you don't fight for three days, go to the house and uncover the tiles.
"call--"
He took a deep breath and slowly took off...two layers of clothes.
He took out the talisman hidden close to his body, as well as the Cold Water Shield and the Five Elements Flag from his arms.
"..."
The two brothers were silent, obediently in the cold winter. How afraid of death are you?
"High, high, high...high talisman."
Seeing the complicated spell patterns on the talisman paper, Yin Ni almost stared out of his eyes. It was a high-level talisman, and the price was extremely expensive. How many evil jade would he earn if he sold it to other hands?
"Extraordinary talent, extraordinary talent."
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would have been a fantasy that a stranger who had mastered the Great Perfection of Demon Refining could draw advanced talismans.
"He can also refine elixirs. If I remember correctly, the Cold Water Shield and the Five Elements Flag seem to have been researched by the workshop owner. So, he went into seclusion for several months, directly refining lower-level magic weapons, and improved to the point where he can refine high-level magic weapons.
?”
He Zhao couldn't care less about the low-pitched discussion among the greyhounds, he was only thinking about advancing to the Pulse Building today.
"Plop!"
A naked figure jumped into the pool in a graceful arc.
