Chapter 106 The senior brother also wants to throw the blame (10th update)
The senior brother waved his hand and said: "I don't mean anything else. In fact, I just don't want to see the seventh junior sister continue to blame herself and worry about this matter. I have already asked three elders about you using the soul pearl to enter the elixir. It is indeed true."
It has the effect of boosting the soul, and I even heard that it can also temper the body. If a powerful real elixir can really be refined, it will be an unprecedented good thing for anyone in the mountain sect. In addition, you also know that whether it is weapon refining or
Refining alchemy has very high requirements for the strength of the soul. As the level of elixirs and magic weapons increases, this becomes more obvious. Seventh Junior Sister wants to use ordinary soul power elixirs to improve her cultivation and build foundations.
, I think it won’t have much effect, so I plan to help her, but in the end I will need the help of my junior brother.”
Xu Chen hurriedly said: "Senior Brother, please speak directly if you have anything to say. What do you need me to do?"
The senior brother waved his hand, and a large amount of elixirs and herbs with tumbling spiritual energy fell in front of Xu Chen.
Xu Chen glanced at his consciousness and said with surprise on his face: "Three-leaf Seven-Star Grass, Golden Sun Fruit, Blood Ganoderma, Dragon Armor Vine...these are all second-level or even third-level elixirs. Brother, you look really good.
Quite a few, is there something better hidden in the storage bag?"
The eldest brother nervously covered the storage bag and shook his head: "No, all my savings for more than ten years are here. These elixirs are all obtained by me from refining and trading for so many years. I originally wanted to keep them for future attacks.
It will be used when making elixirs, but now I leave it to my junior brother. When you can refine the second-grade elixir, try to inject soul power into it, maybe it will have miraculous effects."
Xu Chen said in surprise: "Senior Brother, do you want me to give the soul power elixir refined with these elixirs to the Seventh Senior Sister?"
"Yes!" Senior Brother nodded slightly.
Xu Chen couldn't help but bowed with admiration on his face: "Elder brother Bo Yuntian is really a role model for junior brothers. Please rest assured, senior brother. In a few days, the third elder will start to teach me how to refine the second-grade elixir. I will also prepare it recently."
Start using soul power to refine a pot of first-grade elixirs, just so you can test the effects first. If it succeeds, you will have greater confidence. If it fails, these elixirs will not be wasted by random experiments."
The eldest brother bowed with great joy and said: "This is going to trouble my junior brother. When the time comes to make the elixir, I will notify you and my senior brother will go to help protect the law!"
"Okay, I'll let my senior brother know when I'm ready. I won't disturb you today!" Xu Chen raised his hand and put a bunch of spiritual elixirs rolling into his storage bag and prepared to say goodbye.
"Junior brother, don't leave in a hurry. Since you want to learn to refine weapons, I will give you a few basic weapon refinement tools first, so that you won't have no idea where to start!"
As he spoke, the senior brother raised his hand and several hammers, scissors, axes, chisels and saws fell in front of Xu Chen. Among them were several rough blanks of the flying sword array and some common metals such as Yuan Tieling copper.
"These tools are for daily use. They are enough for processing and making ordinary first-level spiritual materials and first-level magic weapons. The other several semi-finished products are magic weapon blanks that the senior brother simply made without any trouble. The junior brother can use them to observe and understand first, and try them out.
By integrating into the formation, you can quickly become familiar with the basic methods of refining weapons. As for other spiritual materials with relatively rare attributes or second-grade magic weapons or above, you also need to use some special manufacturing tools, such as smelting furnaces, forging benches, and lathes.
Plane knife, etc. When the time comes, if junior brother doesn’t understand something or needs help, you can come and look for senior brother.”
Xu Chen was even more overjoyed. After collecting the tools and the blank magic weapon, he thanked them and left happily.
Seeing Xu Chen's disappearing figure, the senior brother was a little happy but also a little confused. He sat down and licked his hairy beard and muttered: "If the junior brother is really obsessed with refining weapons and delaying the refining of elixirs, I wonder if the third elder will do it."
He'll beat me to death, but I can't care anymore. I've had enough of staying on this mountain. It's great to have someone to take over!"
Xu Chen didn't know that his unintentional move of wanting to learn weapon refining made his senior brother excited, and he was ready to hand over Taiyuan Sect's great weapon refining business to him.
He felt like a treasure after receiving the various basic knowledge and skills of weapon refining given by his senior brother. He quickly ran back to his cabin and immediately took out a handful of jade slips and started learning.
A few days passed by. Xu Chen felt that after basically reading the basic knowledge, he took out a few magic weapon blanks given by his senior brother to observe and understand, and began to try to carve out formations in them.
Weapon refining is equivalent to elixir refining. The raw materials are much less. A magic weapon sometimes only requires a single material, but the processing tools and processes are much more complicated. It not only requires a powerful soul to support the consciousness, but also requires
A large amount of vitality is needed to support the careful processing and polishing of various tools, especially the process of integrating into the formation in the later stage. It is not at all easier than refining alchemy, and can even be said to be more difficult.
Refining alchemy generally only requires an alchemy furnace. Using the five elements formation in the alchemy furnace and the appropriate spiritual fire temperature, almost all elixirs can be refined. This process is reflected in the alchemist's familiarity with the alchemy formula and the alchemy furnace.
As long as the formation and the temperature of the spiritual fire can be accurately controlled, there will basically be no problems.
However, the refining tools are different. Each spiritual material has different properties, different sizes and shapes, different growth years, and even different parts. What this brings about is that we need to make reasonable sums based on these differences in the spiritual materials and use them according to the materials. Regarding the material properties of the spiritual materials,
It needs to fit perfectly so that the effect of the spiritual material can finally be exerted and a good magic weapon can be created.
In the world of immortality, there are fixed formulas for alchemy, so as long as they are the same type of elixir, they are basically the same.
However, there has never been a fixed method for refining weapons. The same spiritual material in the hands of two different refiners may ultimately produce completely different styles, attributes, effects, and power.
Therefore, what is more considered and valued in weapon refining is the skill of the weapon refining master rather than the spiritual material itself.
For magic weapons with complex structures, several spiritual materials with completely different properties may be used at the same time to make them, which places higher requirements on the weapon refiner.
How to optimally match attributes, how to perfectly integrate these different materials, how to perfectly communicate with the integrated formations to release the strongest power while consuming the least energy, is truly profound knowledge.
Therefore, refining weapons is the same as refining alchemy in the entire fairy world. There are many people who can make ordinary first-grade magic weapons. If beauty and practicality are not considered, and it is just simple to use, at least eight out of ten people can make it. The threshold is much lower than that of alchemy.
.
But for complicated arrays, arrays, flags, sets of magic weapons, etc., those who can make them will be out of stock at once.
As for second-grade magic weapons and above, the number of people in the entire Great Song Dynasty who would make them would not exceed fifty. As for third-grade magic weapons, even many powerful men in the Danyuan Realm cannot make them. At most, they can make some one-time talismans.
The magic weapons of the fourth and fifth grades are top-notch skills that can only be accessed by spiritual monks. They require both cultivation support and powerful talent. Both are indispensable.
However, monks who can cultivate to the spiritual realm are all among the best, and they are all extremely talented people. Therefore, they are not too bad at refining alchemy and weapon refining. However, those who can truly make high-quality products are still very rare, and their productivity is extremely high.
Low.
In the entire Song Dynasty, there were less than ten fourth-grade magic weapons in total, and they were all in the hands of the four true monarchs of Yuqing Palace and Longmen Mountain.
Among them, the fourth-grade Baji Zhenhai Pan in Tai Wuzi's hand suppressed the Linghu Canyon.
There are only two fifth-grade magic weapons, both of which are in the hands of True Monarch Chixia of Yuqing Palace. Among them, the Five Elements Magic Cloud Flag was used to suppress the Black Wind Ridge.
After Zhenjun Xuanchen transformed into a spirit, there is still no fourth-grade magic weapon. In other words, Taiyuan Sect does not have any treasure that has reached the fourth-grade level. The only resurrecting tree is dead.
Therefore, during the period after he transformed into a spirit, Zhenjun Xuanchen has been staying in retreat in the back mountain to refine weapons, preparing to get a fourth-grade magic weapon that he can use for himself.
As for the natal magic weapon, the requirements are even higher. Not only do you have to find high-level spiritual materials that match your own skills and cultivation attributes, but you also need to slowly polish and nourish them through the Nascent Soul. You can't be careless at all.
Of course, Xu Chen didn't need to think about such far-reaching things.
He spent a whole day and finally integrated the first flying formation into a flying sword blank given by his senior brother.
It is relatively not difficult to integrate the formation, but it is mainly cumbersome, and it also has to be engraved in the appropriate position according to the material and size of the magic weapon.
A formation actually has energy channels like the meridians of the human body. It is conceivable that it is difficult to carve such a complex formation into a piece of spiritual material out of thin air. It is much more complicated than refining an elixir.
In order for a magic weapon to be used normally, at least three to five formations are needed, and flight control is only the most basic function.
Offensive magic weapons require attack formations, and defensive magic weapons require defensive formations. In addition, to make the magic weapons easy to control, some auxiliary formations such as auxiliary balance, increased power, weight reduction, and speed increase are also needed.
If you want so many formations to be harmonious and unified, then the fusion of formations is the key.
A magic weapon requires at least ten processes from the processing of original spiritual materials to the final manufacturing.
It only took Xu Chen half a day to refine the Dayuan Dan for the first time, but it took a whole day to carve the first and simplest flying formation into an already made flying sword blank.
This is the simplest comparison between alchemy and weapon refining, and the degree of difficulty is clear at a glance.
Therefore, after successfully engraving the first formation, Xu Chen was very excited. He controlled the flying sword to fly up and down in front of the cabin, as if he had discovered an amazing big toy. Xiaobai was so smiling that he was worried that he would lose his mind.
He went crazy, jumping and screaming beside him constantly.
However, he was not happy for long. A green ray of light came from Chaoyang Peak and landed in front of the cabin in an instant. Zhao Xuan jumped down from the flying sword and watched Xu Chen playing with a blank flying sword while shouting.
, I was immediately angry and funny.
"Senior sister, why are you here!" Xu Chen quickly took back his flying sword and saluted.
Zhao Xuan said angrily: "You still have the nerve to ask, the third elder has been waiting for you to learn to refine the second-grade pill for three days!"
Xu Chen suddenly remembered it, blushed and put away the flying sword and said: "I just started learning to refine weapons in the past few days, and I forgot about it. Please go back and tell the third elder that I will definitely go to the Alchemy Academy tomorrow."
Zhao Xuan stamped her feet and said: "It's still tomorrow. You come with me now. The third elder asked me to prepare all the materials for the Qi Gathering Pill. The second-grade pill cannot be refined in one day. It will take three days at least. Come on, hurry up."
!”
So Xu Chen could only follow him to the Danyuan with a sad face.
I’ll call it a day and I’ll continue with ten more updates tomorrow. Please give me your support, and those who have a monthly ticket can vote for it. Thank you.
