When Li Xiuping came here this time, he also asked these people to put down the drawings first and continue to refine magic weapons to reduce the pressure on Emperor Wu City. So after this matter was resolved, Li Xiuping left here and planned to walk in the city. Walk.
In fact, he felt a headache just looking at that drawing, even if he was Mr. Ouye's disciple, even if he could now forge a fairy sword.
Forging such things is completely different from forging swords.
It was precisely because this thing gave Li Xiuping a headache that he wanted to walk around and relax. At the same time, some of the materials needed to cast this thing were probably not available in Maple Leaf City right now.
This thing should have appeared for the first time. Even if it was produced by Ye Xingsi, I am afraid it has not been cast. Otherwise, it was sent with the drawings. There should be finished products. There is no finished product, only drawings, which only means that this thing needs Li Fix the first one cast out.
Since it has never been cast, no one knows what materials are needed, so Li Xiuping has to propose it before all parties can start preparations.
There was nothing but a drawing, so Li Xiuping had to rack his brains?
Li Xiuping first went to find He Feng, and then asked He Feng to find someone to return the corpses of the previous people to their respective sects. At the same time, he asked He Feng to help prepare some materials that Li Xiuping thought were feasible.
After that, Li Xiuping walked around the city and looked at Maple Leaf City after the battle. Although he did not see the previous battle with his own eyes, he could still see the tragedy of the battle at that time from the remnants of the battle.
"Demon invasion!"
Suddenly, a voice came, and the whole city suddenly fell into chaos.
Probably because he was still a little frightened by the previous battle, Li Xiuping's heart suddenly sank and his whole body became nervous.
Master Qingming said: "Don't worry, they are just weak monsters."
Li Xiuping nodded and looked at the tower just in time to see countless soldiers shooting arrows in their hands. Many monks also rushed up to the tower and used various magic weapons to attack.
Li Xiuping climbed up the steps of the tower and saw scattered monsters rushing towards the tower. The strongest ones were only at the Golden Core level.
At this time, the layman Qingming also sacrificed the fairy sword Qingming, then placed the long sword across his chest and pushed it forward. A snow-white sword energy started from the entire city wall and pushed forward.
Wherever the sword energy passed, those monsters were directly turned into ashes!
Seeing that all the monsters were directly killed, those on the tower breathed a sigh of relief, and the fear in their eyes slowly disappeared.
Qing Ming layman put away his sword and said: "This kind of situation will definitely not happen less in the future, but it is not a bad thing. These people will get used to it if they come into contact with these monsters more, thereby reducing their fear when facing monsters. "
Li Xiuping nodded, turned his gaze away from the front, and then glanced at the soldiers on the tower, feeling more and more the need to forge that weapon.
Only by forging that weapon as soon as possible and equipping it into the hands of these people can these people have greater confidence when facing these monsters.
After making sure that no more monsters would attack, Li Xiuping walked down the tower and returned to his residence, ready to start refining the weapon. It happened that He Feng also asked people to send the materials Li Xiuping needed, so Li Xiuping directly took out the drawing and then forged it according to the casting method on the drawing.
Casting this thing actually doesn't require much material. The key is to find a suitable material, whether it is a material with suitable hardness or toughness.
After finding the materials, the casting is not completed directly, but only the first step is completed. The subsequent forging is the most troublesome thing, and each component requires different materials. After all the accessories are cast, , and the final combination is required until the weapon can be used.
When Li Xiuping followed Mr. Ou Ye in the past, although he also made some other things, most of them were swords, let alone such complicated things as now.
In the next few days, Li Xiuping spent most of his time casting the accessories for this weapon. He selected a lot of suitable materials. Unsuitable materials had to be replaced with other materials...
Just like this, it took Li Xiuping almost half a month to finally cast all the parts. When he was assembling them, he found that many parts couldn't function at all, so he had to continue to replace the materials and recast them.
It took a whole month like this, wasting countless materials, and finally the first weapon was cast according to the drawings.
Seeing Li Xiuping finally complete the combination, Master Qingming was actually a little excited and asked directly: "Success?"
Li Xiuping looked at the thing in his hand, nodded, and then said bitterly: "This thing has been cast, but it will be difficult to equip it in batches."
Layman Qingming was stunned.
Li Xiuping placed the weapon in his hand on the casting platform and said: "Although this thing consumes a lot of valuable materials, it can be recycled after all, but the arrows it shoots require cold iron ore."
With that, he handed an arrow to Layman Qingming and said, "And this thing can only be used once."
Qing Ming layman took the arrow and frowned: "With just this little bit, can it kill a Nascent Soul stage monster?"
Li Xiuping nodded and said: "It contains extremely strong ice attribute energy. After it explodes, it can indeed cause heavy damage to existences at the Nascent Soul stage."
Master Qingming asked: "Can't it be replaced by something else?"
Li Xiuping shook his head and said: "I have tried it before. Other things are either not hard enough, or tough enough, or after refining, they cannot store their original properties, let alone compress them in large quantities, and other materials , it will only be harder to find and more precious than this cold iron mine."
Master Qingming nodded and handed the small arrow in his hand to Li Xiuping.
After Li Xiuping took it, he said: "Anyway, it has been successfully refined. You can refine as much as you can."
As he spoke, he put the arrow into the crossbow-like weapon and pointed it at the wall in front of him.
Layman Qingming said: "The main weapon can be cast in batches, and then we can slowly look for replacement materials. After all, the main weapon can be used repeatedly. There is no harm in casting it first."
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "I think so too, but I'm afraid Emperor Wu City will suffer a lot of bleeding this time."
After saying that, he poured his sword intention into it, and then shot the arrow.
Just hearing a "whoosh" sound, the arrow shot straight forward, piercing the entire wall in an instant.
After the arrow penetrated the wall, ice suddenly spread across the entire wall. Then there was a loud "bang" and the entire wall exploded. There was not even ashes, but the ice still spread to the surroundings. The temperature of the entire world also dropped instantly.
Rao is the Qingming layman, and he was a little shocked when he saw this scene.
This loud noise directly attracted many powerful people in Maple Leaf City, who all thought that something unexpected happened on Li Xiuping's side. After seeing that Li Xiuping was safe and sound, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "It's just in time. Give this thing to the refiners to see. Then I will write down the materials required for casting. After you collect it, send it directly to them so that they can try it first. Casting, as for the material of the arrow, I still need to study it further."
Hearing this, those strong men immediately felt happy.
They all know that a blueprint was sent from Emperor Wu City. Although they don’t know what it is, they know that it is a sharp weapon used to deal with the demons. Once it is successfully cast, it can be used by some human monks with low cultivation levels. It can also fight against demons.
Now that Mr. Li has successfully cast it, once it is mass-produced, he will have more confidence to fight against the demons in the future.
A strong man carefully took the things in Li Xiuping's hands and quickly sent them to where the weapon refiners were.
After that, Li Xiuping wrote down the materials needed for casting one by one and handed them to another strong man. The strong man then sent them to where He Feng was, and the person in charge of Emperor Wu City in Maple Leaf City conducted the work. arrange.
Although Li Xiuping was still a little dissatisfied with the things that were cast now, he was finally relieved. After all, all he lacked now was money.
If the problem of arrow materials can be solved, it would be great. If it cannot be solved, then this war with the demons will probably have to spend money on it. The key is that things like cold iron ore need to be used in extreme conditions. It can only be found in cold places. Although it is very common in normal times, that is because the demand is not large. Once it is used as a material for casting weapons, and it can only be used once, the loss will be extremely terrible. It will not take long. If you want to find The Han Iron Mine is afraid that it will become extremely difficult.
And once there is a large demand for this thing, there is no guarantee that someone will hoard it and make a lot of money.
There is no way around this. Some people only care about money. Apart from money, they don't even care about their own lives, let alone morality.
Li Xiuping suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
Since spirit stones can be used to defend and attack spirit boats, can they also be used to replace cold iron ore?
In fact, spirit stones are also a type of ore, and it is not easy to obtain, but compared with cold iron mines, they are still much better. The key is that spirit stones are the currency circulated in the cultivation world. Many cultivation sects actually directly control the ability to mine spirit stones. The spiritual minerals of stone will be much easier to obtain, unlike the cold iron minerals which have to be explored.
With the idea in mind, Li Xiuping immediately started trying, but unfortunately he failed.
Although the spirit stone contains powerful spiritual power and can even be used for practice, the toughness of the spirit stone is not as good as that of cold iron ore. Although it can compress a large amount of spiritual power, it cannot be stored. The key is to add it once it is put into the main weapon. Driven by the monk's spiritual power, if you are not careful, it will explode directly.
That is the power that can directly kill Nascent Soul stage monsters. If it explodes in the hands of a person holding a weapon, the consequences will be disastrous.
By then, the demons hadn't been killed yet, and the human monks were the first to be killed, so it would be better not to have this weapon.
After that, Li Xiuping tried a lot of materials and found that they were not as good as the cold iron ore, so he had no choice but to give up. He could only let Emperor Wu's city collect as much cold iron ore as possible and refine some of it first, which could also relieve Emperor Wu. City pressure.
After that, Li Xiuping went directly to the weapon refiners and instructed them to cast this thing.
Just as Li Xiuping guessed, after Li Xiuping cast this thing, a large number of alchemists and weapon refiners were brought to Emperor Wu City, and then Li Xiuping could only do as much as possible as before. Continue to guide these people to cast the weapon, but most people can only cast the main weapon. As for the casting of arrows, they need to find some strong weapon refiners to cast them.
Cold iron ore is too precious. If a piece is destroyed during the casting process, it will be a huge loss. Naturally, there cannot be any mistakes.
It has already taken almost two months to resolve the weapon issue, and according to the city lord of Emperor Wu City, Emperor Emperor City can only support it for about three months at most. In other words, it will not take another month. When the time comes, Martial Emperor City will abandon the entire Martial Emperor City front and retreat to the Maple Leaf City front.
By that time, the Maple Leaf City front will directly become the main battlefield.
But now this front has not yet been formed. Once the Emperor Wu City retreats, a large number of powerful demons will inevitably follow. The war is about to break out, but this front has no preparations. How can it resist the attack of the demons?
In other words, he must finish all the major forces on this line in less than a month, and then urge these forces to form a coalition as soon as possible to form a second line of defense, which will then be taken over by Emperor Wu City.
In the past two months, Li Xiuping had almost no time to rest. Now that he had finally cast the weapon on the drawing, he should have had a good rest, but because of time constraints, he could only continue to set off and go to Gui Ling Sect in the south.
The Gui Ling Sect was the place where Li Xiuping and others chose to retreat, so the Gui Ling Sect should have been well prepared to deal with it. This trip should not be a big problem, but the same cannot be said for other forces.
This front includes not only the forces on the mountain, but also the towns at the foot of the mountain. If you want to form a complete front and connect it end to end, you must send out the strong men from the major cultivation sects, and as long as the forces on this front are , whether on the mountain or at the bottom of the mountain, they must all be under unified command.
This is not a simple matter.
First, many sects would definitely not be willing to let these forces send out the strongest members of their sects to be dispatched by others.
Secondly, many of the sects on this line must have grudges and hatreds. Now they must put down all their grudges and hatreds, and some sects will not be willing to do so.
Thirdly, no matter how big or small the sects on this line are, and whether they have deep foundations, they must all come up with and share resources. Some small sects and sects do not matter, but those big sects will definitely not compromise easily.
Fourth, among these sects, there are many entities that are related to the demon clan. If they are rashly integrated, there will definitely be problems later, so Li Xiuping also needs to know whether these sects have any relationship with the demon clan.
The above four points combined are already a huge trouble, not to mention there are other reasons.
Because the clear water unicorn has recovered a lot, and this time Li Xiuping represents the Lord of Emperor Wu City to come forward to integrate, so the card must have it, and a spiritual beast in the god transformation stage is perfect as a mount.
In addition, we also need to bring the layman Qingming and the "Huo Ling Zhenren". Both of them are eight sages, and they will definitely be able to frighten them a lot. And if it doesn't work, I'm afraid I will have to take action and kill people to establish authority. With Qingming The presence of the layman can also ensure Li Xiuping's own safety. As for "Huoling Zhenren", he can only use his reputation to scare others.
Just as Li Xiuping imagined, the Guiling Sect had no objections to any of Li Xiuping's requests. They all followed Li Xiuping's instructions. First, they sent some strong men from the sect to take charge of the Guiling Sect's journey to Maple Leaf City. For defense, he also used the secrets in the gate to build mountains and cities and arrange large formations.
After that, Li Xiuping continued to go south, walking past sects one by one. Some sects, like the Guiling Sect, were affiliated sects of Emperor Wu City. Naturally, there would be no delay in giving orders to Emperor Emperor City, even if it was the one in Emperor Emperor City. They have already put forward a lot of information and sent out many strong men on the front, and they are still duty-bound at this moment.
Although some sects are not affiliated with Martial Emperor City, this war now is after all a war between humans and demons, and once Martial Emperor City is lost, these sects will bear the brunt, no matter how big their family background is. , no matter how much information he had, he still couldn't hold it, so he didn't hesitate and directly joined the battle line.
There was no movement from these sects before. In fact, they wanted to see if Emperor Wu City could withstand the attack of the demons. But now they have no choice but to abandon even big cities like Emperor Wu City. If their line cannot stop the demons, the same will happen. Can only give up.
This journey has been relatively smooth.
At this moment, Li Xiuping met the first sect that was unwilling to join the battle: Qingyang Palace.
When Li Xiuping and others appeared in Qingyang Palace, Qingyang Palace had obviously already heard the news and knew the purpose of Li Xiuping and others' visit. Therefore, although their faces were smiling politely, there was dissatisfaction in their eyes.
Li Xiuping had no doubt that if it weren't for the fact that he had two of the Eight Wise Men with him, the Qingyang Palace might not even be willing to let him in.
At this moment, the head of Qingyang Palace walked out of the main hall of Qingyang Palace, smiled and saluted: "I have long heard that Mr. Li is a young hero who is unparalleled in the world. Now that I can see him, I am really lucky!"
Li Xiuping also smiled and returned the salute, saying: "Senior, this is a ridiculous compliment, but I, this junior, really don't dare to take it seriously."
Without waiting for the other party to speak, Li Xiuping said directly: "Senior should have heard about the purpose of this junior's visit, so I will tell you directly."
The head of Qingyang Palace also said seriously: "If Mr. Li wants me, Qingyang Palace, to join the camp against the demons, I'm afraid I will be disappointed."
Li Xiuping, layman Qingming, and the "Master Huo Ling" couldn't help but frown...
Some people died, but not completely...
