Chapter 100: The Art of Refining
At night, a group of people sat around the bonfire and talked happily with each other. The fat sheep on the bonfire had been roasted so brightly that the scent of meat was rippling among the mountains.
"My friend Tian Ming, I am a weapon refiner of the Lantian Empire Artifact Refiner Guild. I believe you already know it. Thanks to you who sacrificed your life to save me this time. I really don't know how to thank you," Zhan Yunkong said with a smile on his face.
"Your Madam Zhan, don't be too polite. I'm just a little help. Anyone who puts this on you will do this!" Lei Hongyi said righteously.
If it were normal circumstances, he wouldn't have to meddle in other people's business, but the mercenaries who were chasing Tiebei would not let him go. He was also accidentally involved in the right and wrong.
Zhan Yunkong nodded secretly when he heard this. In this world, the strong are respected and the weak are slaves. Therefore, sympathy is really a luxury. Lei Hong is able to sacrifice his life to save his life without avoiding swords and guns. Such noble quality makes Zhan Yunkong feel deeply and look at Lei Hong, and he is even more grateful and admired.
Lei Hong's face was a little hot, and he felt a little distressed: "What can I do if they want to kill me together?"
The others just listened quietly. When Mr. Zhan talked to others, it was not convenient for them to say anything more, especially Tiebei, who always lowered his head and occasionally glanced at Lei Hong, and the awe in his eyes was beyond words.
"Hey, my master is really late. I can see it all, why didn't he see it? Tian Ming is obviously an old monster who cannot be found in the world! Do you really treat him as a teenage friend?"
Thinking of this, Tiebei was a little worried about Zhan Yunkong, because most of the old monsters that cannot be found in the world were all strange-tempered people, afraid that Zhan Yunkong would say something that shouldn't have said and offended the old monster Lei Hong, it would be too late! The more you know, the more you become, the more awe you will be.
In Tiebei's heart, Lei Hong's identity as a paradise has been deeply rooted.
Shi Chongshan had already woken up. After learning about Lei Hong's amazing record, he couldn't help but look confused and unbelievable. At the same time, he was very grateful for Lei Hong's rescue from Zhang Chi.
"Haha, my friend Tian Ming is so kind. I admire you!" Zhan Yunkong laughed, and the wrinkles on his face stretched out, as if he was a teenager younger.
"You're welcome!"
"Although I am a weapon refiner, I think I am not short of good weapons. I really don't know how to thank you." Zhan Yunkong originally wanted to refine good spiritual treasures for Lei Hong or give Lei Hong something to express his feelings, but when he thought of the Cang Sword in Lei Hong's hand, his thoughts were immediately destroyed.
"Shen Zhan doesn't have to worry about it. If Zhan Zhan doesn't mind, just tell me how to refine weapons."
Lei Hong is still quite curious about refining weapons. The Thunder Temple advocates martial arts. Since childhood, he has had very little contact with weapons, and it can almost be said that he has not been exposed to them.
"Haha, I don't know about other people, but I still know a little about the fur when it comes to refining weapons."
When it comes to refining weapons, Zhan Yunkong looked gloomy and was extremely happy. Although he was mediocre in martial arts and had no talent, he practiced for a lifetime, but he was just in the late stage of the state of Tongxin. This was the result of swallowing many elixirs and treasures, otherwise he would not have been able to cultivate to such a state.
However, for the refining weapon, Zhan Yunkong is an extremely good player in the entire Lantian Empire, and this is also what he is most proud of.
The profession of weapon refiner is extremely popular throughout the Menghuang Continent. For example, Zhan Yunkong is just a warrior in Tongxin Realm, but a large group of warriors in the warrior realm are willing to follow him. The reason is that Zhan Yunkong is a weapon refiner! This is also the reason why Zhan Yunkong's guards' weapons are much better than the weapons of mercenaries.
Weapon refiners are generally not good at practicing, but they are good at refining spiritual treasure weapons, thus surpassing warriors.
A good and practical weapon can greatly improve a warrior's combat effectiveness. Therefore, any weapon refiner will be tried hard by all forces and become a delicious bun in their eyes, with an extremely prominent status.
Lei Hong nodded and smiled and said, "Please give me advice." Lei Hong is still looking forward to hearing a weapon refiner talk about things about weapon refining.
The so-called "more skills" don't suppress your body, and knowing more new things is also beneficial to him. Moreover, he doesn't know much about weapon refiners, and even less of it is known to refiners.
Therefore, it is extremely rare for him to be able to listen to a weapon refining experience and learn some ways to refine weapons.
"Weapon refiners, like pharmacists and spiritual formation masters, are considered minorities throughout the continent. The main reason for this phenomenon is that they have extremely strict requirements for cultivators."
"Oh? Why are you harsh?"
"Weapon refiners have extremely high requirements for the spiritual soul of cultivators. Only those with unique talents in spiritual souls can be able to get started with weapon refining!"
"Soul?" Lei Hong was curious. Isn't the soul not much different? Why do you still have special requirements for the soul?
The common sense is that the difference in the strength of the soul between warriors will not be too great. Only those who are particularly talented in spiritual practice or have experienced special adventures will undergo greater changes in the soul.
The wonder of the soul strength between warriors with a huge gap in cultivation will also increase a lot. As the cultivation level increases significantly, the warrior's soul will still become stronger, but it will not be too obvious.
However, the strength of the souls is generally not much different among warriors who are not very different.
"Haha, if everyone can refine weapons, then we refiners will not be so popular. It is precisely because of the special requirements for the soul that there are so few refiners."
“What special requirements?”
"The spirit strength of the weapon refiner is generally stronger than that of ordinary warriors. Of course, the soul is generally difficult to cultivate. At least I don't know what skills can cultivate the soul, so the difference in the spirit strength of the weapon refiner is not too big. Of course, the soul strength is only one aspect, and the most important thing is the soul attribute!"
"Soul attribute?" Lei Hong was curious.
"Under the spirit attribute of a weapon refiner, generally, must be mixed with a trace of wood attribute in the fire attribute. Only such a person can control the flames very well, so that the spirit can refine spiritual treasures. Otherwise, if the fire is slightly poor, there will be major problems during the refining process. At the least, the materials will be destroyed, and even the cauldron will explode, or even the weapon refiner will die."
"So, it turns out that there are attributes for the soul. How can we know our soul attributes?" Lei Hong was curious. In terms of the soul, in his impression, it was completely blank, and it was the first time he heard of the soul attributes.
"Haha, people with such special attributes are extremely rare. The souls of ordinary warriors are single and pure attributes. Fire attributes like this are also possessed by wood attributes. Even among millions of people, one may not be found."
"If you want to detect your soul attributes, just instill your soul into the soul measurement jade. The soul measurement jade turns red with the color of green wood, that is, the soul with the fire attribute mixed with the wood attribute. Such a soul owner has a certain possibility to become a weapon refiner!"
Zhan Yunkong told in detail that Lei Hong was fascinated by the hearing. These things were something he had never known before. He didn't expect that the threshold for a weapon refiner was so high!
Moreover, even if you have that unique soul, it seems that it is not enough to listen to the meaning of Mr. Zhan.
"With that kind of soul attribute, you have to refine a kind of flame. That kind of ordinary flame is definitely not good, and you also have to have extremely powerful flames, such as beast fire, or fire spirit and other strange flames in the world. Of course, all the above points are satisfied, and it depends on whether you have talent in refining weapons. If you don't have talent, even if you meet those conditions, it will be useless."
Lei Hong was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that the conditions for becoming a weapon refiner were so harsh. The only thing about the dual attributes of fire and wood made most people rejected outside the gate of weapon refining.
For weapon refiners, talent in weapon refining seems to be equally important. Only by having strong understanding can we go further in the art of refining. Otherwise, even if external conditions are met and without understanding, we will not become an outstanding weapon refining master.
"Weapon refiners are divided into multiple levels, corresponding to spiritual treasure levels, divided into human level, earth level and heaven level. Of course, there are higher-level weapon refiners, and each level is divided into four levels, namely low-level, medium-level, top-level and peak-level. I have been refining weapons for the rest of my life and I am just a peak-level weapon refiner."
Old Zhan sighed with an indescribable look of fascination in his expression, but he is old and may have stopped at the peak of his human level in his life...
Lei Hong nodded, and Tiebei, Shi Chongshan brothers and others were also very eye-opening. Zhan Lao had never told them about these refining things.
"If you want to refine a good spiritual treasure, you will not only have strict requirements on the weapon refiner, but also have extremely high requirements for the fire control ability of the weapon refiner. In addition, you must choose the right materials so that you can refine the high-quality and powerful spiritual treasure!"
Lei Hong nodded secretly when he heard this. The more he knew about refining weapons, the more shocked his heart.
"Of course, there is another extremely important thing for the weapon refiner. Otherwise, even if the materials are complete, the spiritual treasures will not be refined..."
"Ah?" Lei Hong was suspicious. Don't you have anything to have? What else is missing?
"Haha, the instrument map, all spiritual treasures are refined based on the instrument map, and only based on the instrument map."
"Weapon map?" Lei Hong was puzzled. He had heard of the Dan formula and even seized it. This was the first time he had heard of the weapon map.
"You can imagine the weapon diagram as a pill recipe. Any spiritual treasure refining is based on the weapon diagram. Without the weapon diagram, no matter how good a weapon refiner is, there is no way to refine the spiritual treasure. Only by using the weapon diagram of different levels can it be possible to refine the corresponding level of spiritual treasure."
"So, refining weapons requires a weapon refiner, materials and tool maps, which are indispensable, and the grade of the spiritual treasure is also closely related to these three factors."
Listening to Mr. Zhan’s words, Lei Hong suddenly realized.
"Haha, my friend Tian Ming is amazing in martial arts. Maybe he will have a lot of talent in refining weapons. Come on, my friend Tian Ming, I will help you test it, how are you looking at?"
Zhan Yunkong looked at Lei Hong with a smile, and he was extremely hopeful that Lei Hong would have such talent.
