early morning.
Mountain fog still exists.
The town has become somewhat popular, and among the smoke curling up from the kitchen stoves, there are people walking out of the town in twos and threes.
The door opened, and Chu Mu was dressed in a green robe, neat and clean.
In the past, after months of studying hard in seclusion, one would definitely look sloppy, but this time, in this different living environment from the past, it seems to be a little bit different.
The clothes are neater, and there are more interactions between people.
Rare comfort!
This kind of comfort is not the comfort that was previously prohibited and protected by the formation in Fang City, but the comfort that comes from communication and harmonious coexistence between people.
As usual, after opening the door, Chu Mu cleaned up all the dirt.
Old man Chen was already pushing the dung cart and cleaning the filth from house to house. When he arrived at Chu Mu's door, he couldn't help but chat a few words.
The door of the Goulan female cultivator opposite the door opened at some point and she joined in the chat.
Chu Mu didn't have any colored glasses. Old Chen was stupid because he expected the continuation of his own bloodline.
Perhaps he was unwilling to waste his life, so he placed unrealistic hopes on the next generation.
After all, outsiders are not qualified to say anything about father and son.
And this female cultivator named Miaoyu, after getting to know her during this period, she is also a hard-working person, a hard-working person beyond Chu Mu's imagination.
It is said that she was a secular girl, but she was suddenly drafted into a corvee by the county government. The entire county, with nearly 10,000 men and women, was classified as a corvee.
If it were just like that, it would be nothing but worldly labor.
But the result is not secular corvée.
But it comes from the will of the world of immortality.
The reason was simply that a Jindan Daoist who ruled his area needed to refine a magic weapon called the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, and lacked enough souls as nourishment and consumables.
As for secular mortals, their souls do not manifest before the gods appear, so it is difficult to use them. But for the world of immortality, is it difficult to make gods appear for mortals?
Obviously not difficult, simply not too easy!
Compared with catching immortal cultivators to obtain their souls and cultivating mortal gods, it is obviously much easier and the impact is much smaller.
For a Jindan Daoist, it is even more relaxing. With one sentence, countless people will immediately follow suit.
Therefore, it is called corvee, but it is actually collecting materials for weapon refining.
A true person in the Golden Core Realm can recruit hundreds of thousands of mortals with one decree.
According to Miaoyu, hundreds of thousands of people each receive one Qi and Blood Pill every day, and the so-called Qi and Blood Pill is actually made by ordinary people.
It is easy for gods to appear under the stimulation of the remaining spirit in the mortal qi and blood elixir and the stimulation of seven emotions and six desires.
It's just that it's easier to become a delirious lunatic.
But the consumables for weapon refining, and also the evil magic weapons such as the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, obviously don't care whether the soul is sane or not.
Miaoyu's family, young and old, became consumables for refining weapons, and the hundreds of thousands of people who were conscripted into corvee labor also became consumables.
As for herself, she was considered lucky. She was taken in as a slave to vent her desires by a guarding immortal cultivator, and she was lucky enough to survive.
In the end, all parties moved around and settled in the Jade Emperor Valley to this day.
This Goulan female cultivator, in a sense, is obviously carrying a blood feud.
But after learning about this situation, Chu Mu realized that he seemed to be... bearing a blood feud?
If he remembered correctly, the original owner's father also seemed to have died due to corvee labor.
Although the original owner's father was an escort for the corvee, like the conscripted corvee, they were all extremely strange and never returned.
In Nanshan Town, he also specifically inquired about the corvées recruited from several counties around Qinghe County, but also strangely disappeared never to return.
He had been puzzled for a long time at the beginning. After all, tens of thousands of laborers had gone away forever. If there was no inside story, no one would believe it!
Judging from Miaoyu's experience, it seems to make sense.
It is not a secular corvee, but a will originating from the world of immortality...
Treating people as consumables is not impossible given the Li family monk's temperament of not treating mortals as human beings...
So, he was also inexplicably saddled with a blood feud?
I don't know if the guess is accurate.
However, even if the guess is correct, it is really difficult for Chu Mu to feel anything like the reality.
After all, could he still avenge this inexplicable revenge for the original owner's father?
This is obviously impossible. The only psychological fluctuation is the shock of this cruel reality.
Apart from this, there is nothing else, and it is difficult to have anything else.
After thinking about it carefully, in this world of immortality, this kind of thing doesn't seem to be too unusual.
After all, in the world of Dachu Immortal Cultivation, the so-called distinction between right and wrong is based only on interests, not positions.
Absolute power, coupled with the monopoly of resources and knowledge brought by absolute power, and the long lifespan brought by power.
Anything that happens under such an order cannot be understood using his previous life knowledge.
Because...it just doesn't work!
After a conversation, Chu Mu returned to the room, and the so-called blood feud was forgotten by him.
Stopping in front of the desk and looking at the mountains of manuscripts on the desk, Chu Mu pondered for a moment, then moved his eyes and fixed them on the light screen panel.

[Weapon Refining: Changhong Sword: Beginner’s First Practice: 99/100]
[Spiritual radiance value: 5320.6%]
After months of hard study, the only thing reflected on the light screen panel is the Changhong Sword, which is stuck at the boundary of beginners and first-time practice.
The so-called Changhong Sword is the only weapon refining formula recorded in the weapon refining manual, a long sword that is a low-grade magical weapon.
After months of hard study, the knowledge and understanding of the entire weapon refining system finally converged on this one and only weapon refining formula.
Practice brings true knowledge.
As for the huge knowledge system of weapon refining, the first step of practice is on the Changhong Sword, a low-grade magical weapon.
He had already prepared all the materials, and they were only worth dozens of spirit stones in total.
But the types involved were more than he imagined.
Three first-grade low-grade mineral materials, one first-grade mid-grade spiritual ore, and a first-grade mid-grade spiritual wood.
And these five kinds are only the materials needed for the main body of the sword.
The most important thing about a magic weapon is the pattern and array engraved on it.
The so-called weapon patterns are actually the routes and channels for spiritual energy transmission.
The formation ban has the same origin as the formation, and its function is to give the magic weapon the final magic through the spiritual energy transmitted through the weapon pattern.
For example, the source of the Xiaosancai Formation Ban on the Haoyue Armor is the Xiaosancai Formation.
It's just that there has been some evolution in the weapon refining process.
The Xiao Sancai formation was engraved on the puppet armor, thus giving the puppet armor the defensive power of the Xiao Sancai formation.
The weapon pattern is the path that supplies spiritual energy. It is connected to the Xiaosancai Formation. It transmits a steady stream of spiritual energy to allow the Xiaosancai Formation to operate, thereby allowing the Xiaosancai Formation to maintain its defensive capabilities.
Naturally, various corresponding spiritual materials are needed to engrave the weapon patterns and formation bans.
And these spiritual materials are completely diverse and of quite a wide variety.
Compared with alchemy, weapon refining is obviously not simple at all. In fact, because the knowledge system is too large, its difficulty seems to be much higher.
As for Chu Mu's countless fantastic ideas at the beginning, after he understood this knowledge system clearly, it was undoubtedly like having a bucket of ice water poured on his head.
If he really wants to realize the fantastic ideas he has in mind, his current knowledge system of weapon refining is far from enough.
Not to mention, the puppetry knowledge system he obtained was only a foundation.
If he really immerses himself in this path, then he will obviously still have a long way to go.
It can be expected that for a long time in the future, the art of refining weapons and puppets will inevitably be the same as refining alchemy.
It will take a long time to follow the gourd and draw the scoop...
You need to have abundant experience in painting and a sound knowledge system...
