It took almost all the spiritual energy in the body to activate the fire. The fire trembled slightly, and a wisp of pale flame came out. The color of the flame looked cold, but when it was touched, it felt like it was circling in the crater of a volcano.
The next moment, the fire broke out, pale flames rose up, and the entire Jiuqu refining furnace lit up. The nine stone rings slowly rose and separated, intertwined and suspended in the air. The pale flame burned in the center of the nine stone rings, and the inside of the stone ring was burned red. , in sharp contrast to the color of the flames.
"It doesn't seem to be earth core fire. I don't know how effective the weapon refining is."
She threw the iron concentrate into the pale flame. The surface impurities of the iron concentrate melted at a speed visible to the naked eye. Another layer melted, and some other metals mixed in the ore melted into liquid and dripped, before falling on the ring. It was burned to ashes. Zhao Ning used his spiritual power to control the flames until half an hour later, only the iron essence the size of a fingernail remained. The iron essence glowed silvery white without leaving any impurities.
Zhao Ning worked hard and threw other ores into the pale flame one by one to get the fine gold material.
Such a busy day passed. Zhao Ning took a cup of tea and read through the ghost hand weapon refining method. Most of the weapons of the monks in the market were swords of various materials. Generally, they only refined a few prohibitions, and they could not be said to be swords. Spiritual weapon.
Zhao Ning then used the fine gold he had just refined to refine it in the pale flames. He first refined the shape, and when the fine gold melted in the pale flames, he used his spiritual power to shape the long sword through the air. If he was a master who was proficient in weapon refining, he would even The ordinary method of tempering weapons to create the appearance of a long sword is just not possible, so it can only be made reluctantly.
The refining of this fine steel sword went unexpectedly smoothly. Within an hour, the appearance of the long sword was completed. The style was ordinary. After refining, the weapon was refined using the Zhao Ning Hand Pinch Technique and the Ghost Hand Refining Technique. The method is to fly the hand skills and carve restrictions into the sword body one after another. After the eight restrictions are reached, the eight restrictions are combined with the Earth Sha Jue with the word "bing". The pale flames wander above the restrictions. As the spells are entered, there is a faint sound. Ancient cloud patterns emerge.
Zhao Ning was overjoyed and shouted, "Come together!"
The ancient cloud pattern suddenly lit up, and the eight restrictions merged into it, and were engraved into the fine steel sword along with the cloud pattern.
Zhao Ning was just testing the waters. After refining the first level of restraint, he recalled the fine steel sword with some excitement. The fine steel sword was three feet long, two inches wide, and about one minute thick. The two inches at the tip of the long sword suddenly tightened. Sharpen the tip of the sword.
Zhao Ning was silent and had to sigh, this sword is very ugly.
It's probably because as a refiner, I thought it was eye-catching at first glance, but then I looked at the forbidden cloud pattern on the sword body and saw the silvery white light swimming in the cloud pattern, and I actually found it somewhat pleasing to the eye.
"I am not a genius in refining weapons." Zhao Ning thought to himself, "How could I complete the first sword so smoothly?"
He simply continued his efforts and invested in cold refining to make a long sword.
The cold essence glowed with ice, and they actually complemented each other under the pale flames. Zhao Ning followed the last experience and quickly shaped the shape of the long sword. He consciously adjusted the thickness of the sword and the position of the tip. Who would have thought that with just one movement, something would happen? Why did the nine-ring weapon-refining furnace tremble slightly, and the pale flame rose higher and higher? Zhao Ning suddenly opened his eyes wide, and without thinking, he withdrew his spiritual power and turned his hand to pinch the Earth Shield Technique.
There was just a "boom", and the entire west side hall seemed to shake, and the furnace exploded. Even with the earth shield spell to block it, Zhao Ning was still thrown out by the air wave until he hit the courtyard. On the dead tree, and then fell to the ground.
Zhao Ning was leaning against a dead tree with a dazed look on her face, her body was in a mess, her hair was spread out like a bird's nest, her clothes were long in the east and west, she used both hands to push away the messy hair in front of her eyes, her delicate little face He seemed to be rolling around on the bottom of the pot, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"Cough cough cough." After a while, Zhao Ning coughed out a cloud of black air, then supported the dead tree and staggered back to the west side hall.
It is indeed a palace of immortals. The air wave almost overturned the roof, but there was no damage inside at all. Only the things I brought in were piled up like rubbish.
"That shouldn't be the case. Isn't it great to refine it for the first time?"
Zhao Ning was depressed and puzzled. She summoned the stainless steel sword and moved it up, down, left and right.
"Other than being a little ugly, there are no other abnormalities. It is a genuine, first-level, low-grade spiritual weapon."
Zhao Ning pinched the Dust Cleansing Technique, wiped away the dust on his body, changed his clothes, and continued refining without any discouragement.
After thinking about it, the difference from the first refining was that the materials were different. Maybe the pale flame could not refine water-based materials, so Zhao Ning replaced it with iron essence and continued.
Half an hour later, there was a loud bang, and Zhao Ning was thrown onto the dead tree again. This time, the air wave was higher, and Zhao Ning was directly hung on a high branch.
Zhao Ning struggled to pull herself off the high branch and returned to the West Wing Hall in a state of embarrassment.
There is only one pair of clear and bright eyes on the face covered with black gray, and the eyes blink twice. Is it true that only ugly appearance can succeed? After all, in addition to using different materials, she also tried to make the sword look better.
At this moment, the Qingchen Jue was no longer used. Instead, iron essence was thrown in, spiritual power was injected, and refining began directly.
After another half an hour, Zhao Ning saw that the nine stone rings began to shake, and knew something was wrong. He directly rose up against the wind and jumped behind the dead tree very quickly.
boom--
As expected, the Jiuqu refining furnace exploded again. Without the resistance of the Earth Shield Technique, the dead trees trembled, and the dead leaves flew away, including the dead leaves above Zhao Ning's head.
Zhao Ning returned to the West Wing Hall without any image, and finally admitted that her first refining was successful. It was a blind cat meeting a dead mouse. It was luck, not talent.
"Why--"
Zhao Ning sighed, not feeling much disappointed. He just picked up the materials and tried again and again, with repeated failures.
Three days later, after dozens of attempts, Zhao Ning finally obtained seven long swords, made of both iron essence and cold essence materials. He stayed awake for three days and consumed all the fine gold materials. Zhao Ning succeeded in refining this sword. The rate is higher.
Eight long swords are hung on the weapon rack, with different lengths, thicknesses, and sharpness. However, the moiré restrictions flowing on them can make people ignore the shortcomings of the long swords' appearance.
Zhao Ning admired it for a moment, then counted on her fingers. Normally, the market price of a first-level banned low-grade spiritual weapon is fifty low-grade spiritual stones. She can earn back the material cost with three long swords, which is still better than most. For beginners in refining.
Zhao Ning once again looked at the ghost hand weapon refining method. The original method of refining low-grade hidden weapons in the Qianyuan Weapon Refining True Solution was still retained in the booklet.
All the weapon refining in the early stage was in preparation for refining this hidden weapon-like spiritual weapon.
Zhao Ning has seen Huo Beard's "Soul-Binding Needle" and refined it!
The real effect of the soul-binding needle is as Huo Huzi said. If the soul is hit by the soul-binding needle, the soul of the same level will be trapped for at least half an hour. If the opponent's cultivation level is high, the trapped time may be less than a moment. For those who are higher than the realm, The monk can only lock it for a moment, and it may even be useless.
This is an unexpected life-saving spiritual weapon in the same realm. It only has one chance to hit, which consumes a lot of spiritual power. If the hit misses, not only will the opponent notice it, but you will also be at a disadvantage due to the consumption of spiritual power.
"Spirit Blood Wood, Spirit Bee Sac, and Geng Silver Essence. Geng Silver Essence is already available, and the other two materials seem to have been seen in Duobao Tower."
Zhao Ning went to Duobao Tower again, but this time he didn't stay long. He spent nearly two hundred low-grade spiritual stones to gather all the materials and hurried back to the cave.
In the House of Silent Spirit, Zhao Ning once again devoted himself to refining weapons.
Geng silver essence has a silvery gold color, is paler than iron essence, has a more delicate texture, but is several times lighter than iron essence.
Throwing Geng silver fine gold into the pale flame, it instantly melts into liquid, like the Milky Way flowing in the flame. It is more difficult to control than other materials. Zhao Ning's consciousness is almost condensed into a line, and he does not dare to look away even for a moment. Be careful. Geng silver fine gold was condensed into a silver needle less than three inches. The forging process was unexpectedly smooth. Zhao Ning sent other materials such as spiritual blood wood and spiritual bee sac into the flame, divided them into two strands of spiritual power to melt the materials, and then carefully fused them.
The spirit bee sac contains the venom from the tail sting of the phantom bee. This venom can paralyze the souls of low-level monks for a moment. It is the most important material for the soul-binding needle to perform the technique of trapping the souls. The spirit-blood wood is said to be the flesh and blood of fallen gods from ancient times. A kind of spiritual wood that grows and mutates in the forest. It can be used to refine weapons to make the weapons have soul-stunning effects.
A trace of blood was extracted from the burning Spirit Blood Wood, and a trace of venom concentrated in a hundred spirit bee sacs, both seeped into the silver needle.
The blue and purple colors on the silver needle flickered, and then were completely swallowed up by the silvery white color. The silver needle swayed leisurely on the pale flame, like the weight of fine dust.
Zhao Ning pinched the restraint hand, one after another, until the eight restraints were inserted into the silver needle as thin as a hair. She squeezed out the "dou" character "Desha", and the eight restraints wrapped around the silver needle. At the moment of tightening, there was a sudden stagnation. , the silver needle actually broke.
This time it failed, there was no sensational explosion, it was silent, even the broken silver needle was slowly burned in the fire.
Zhao Ning was not surprised, and just as he had tried refining the long sword a few days ago, he repeatedly refined and tried again and again, until the ninth time, under the word "fight", eight restrictions surrounded a cloud pattern, and the cloud pattern It passes around the silver needle, merges into the silver needle and disappears.
"The first level of ban was successful."
Immediately afterwards, the second level of eight restrictions was inserted, and the word "Broken" appeared. The first level of ancient cloud pattern "Dou" on the silver needle lit up slightly. The eight restrictions collided, and a new ancient cloud pattern was formed under the silvery white light. In the silver needle.
"The soul-binding needle was successful!"
The soul-binding needle fell into the hand, as if it were nothing, and there was no mark on the touch. However, if the consciousness paid a little attention, it could feel the sharpness that pierced the soul, and there was a faint feeling of numbness.
Together with the short swords from before, there are two second-level low-grade spiritual weapons that cannot be summoned on the second level of Qi training. Even three more monks on the fourth level of Qi training can catch them off guard.
Chapter 049
Seven days later, I stood in the central square of Guiyuan City again. The Qingdan Cauldron on the competition stage had been removed.
The recruitment order for immortals in Danling Valley has ended, all the casual cultivators gathered in Guiyuan City have dispersed, and the stalls under the competition stage also look a lot deserted.
Zhao Ninggang stood at the edge of the square for a moment and was immediately discovered.
"Fairy! This fairy!" Zhao Ning turned around and saw the stall owner who sold ore a few days ago was greeting him warmly. Zhao Ning approached and the smile on the stall owner's face widened, "Fairy, I met you again. Now, the fairy still needs some ore. I have mined another batch from the Thousand Tough Mountains. There are not only cold ore, but also black iron ore and mithril ore. Fairy, take a look. These are all good materials for refining weapons. "
Zhao glanced across his stall, which was filled with more ore than that day.
She raised her head and joked, "Fellow Taoist, you are trying to do big business here again."
"Eh?" The stall owner smiled shyly and admitted in a roundabout way, "Fairy, why are you so sarcastic about the old Taoist? The old Taoist thinks that practicing weapon refining is just a waste of materials. The materials that day can't extract much pure gold. It is inevitable that There is not enough material for practice.”
Zhao Ning knew that she would need to refine weapons a lot in the future and would have to buy materials for practice sooner or later, so she asked about the price.
The stall owner immediately laughed and said, "These are the ores that I went to the Qianren Mountains to dig out. The ores in the Qianren Mountains for thousands of years have become increasingly difficult to dig. The old man spent a lot of effort to buy these. Fairy, You are an experienced nobleman, what do you think of this number?"
He made a "two" sign and saw a total of two hundred low-grade spiritual stones. Zhao Ning paused for a moment. There were only about the same number of spiritual stones left in her storage bag.
Zhao Ning hesitated a little more, but somehow in her heart she saw the empty weapon racks in the west wing of the House of Silent Spirits, and felt that she really needed to practice more and add more weapons.
I simply took it all in again.
It was a willful purchase. Fortunately, the central square was deserted at the moment, and few people noticed it. Only the stall owner smiled broadly and repeatedly said, "Fairy noble man, noble man will be rewarded well."
After Zhao Ning finished buying, she walked a few steps and looked at the scattered spiritual stones in the storage bag. She was silent for a moment, as if she was here to buy dry food.
Forget it, save some money, wild fruits can satisfy your hunger, so maybe just chew ginseng.
Zhao Ning tightened her storage bag, paused, changed direction, and walked toward the southwest residential area of Guiyuan City.
When Kong Nan left before, he asked Zhao Ning to come to their house if she had free time in the cave. After all, he was a kind person who he met just after entering the world of cultivation and should be visited. Moreover, now Zhao Ning wants to ask Kong Nan's grandson for help. busy.
Kong Nan's family is in a narrow alley, which seems to be the gathering area of ordinary people in Guiyuan City. At that time, all the ordinary people went to work in major shops. This alley was particularly deserted. Zhao Ning did not see them in the central square. , I think I should practice at home.
Zhao Ning was still ten feet away from Kong Nan's house when she heard Kong Li's whimpering coming from the yard.
"How could we collude with the possessed cultivator? I was almost killed by that monster!"
"Several Qingxiao Sect seniors, what we told is the truth. We really accidentally bumped into a monster outside the city. If it is really related to us, we don't have to report it to the Qingxiao Sect patrol team anxiously, don't you think so? ?" Kong Nan's voice was much calmer than Kong Li's.
"Of course. I didn't say that you must be involved with the possessed cultivators. I'm just asking a few questions. Don't be nervous."
This somewhat lazy and casual voice seemed to belong to Qingxiao Zong Jixiu, but he was half teasing and half threatening, "Old man, we used the circular light regression technique to check their memories of the moments before their death. You think it was a coincidence or not, all The monsters are all blank, and there is only your shadow outside the city."
Kong Nan knelt down with a plop, and Kong Li also knelt down, crying out that he was wronged.
"We really just went to deliver talismans that day. Tianjiazhuang ordered a hundred explosive flame talismans and a hundred fire net talismans from Lao Chan. This was a big business. It took Lao Chan a total of seven days to draw them. He took his granddaughter to deliver them overnight. It’s for our big customers. Who knows that we might encounter monsters on the way back? It really has nothing to do with us!”
"Oh? Really?" Ji Xiu said faintly, "Well, old man, have you ever heard of the soul-searching technique? With just a few exercises, you can know what you have done and whether what you said is true or false."
"No, no, no, you can't use the Soul Searching Technique, or you will become stupid." Kong Li's voice trembled with fear.
"Why are you so stupid? It's painful at most... Who's outside?" Ji Xiu paused in his threatening voice and looked up at the courtyard door.
Zhao Ning happened to walk to the entrance of the courtyard and saw that the courtyard was full of people. Six monks from the silver-armored patrol team stood on both sides. Ji Xiu shook her fan and stared at her with a half-smile.
"Senior Ji Xiu." Zhao Ning cupped her hands.
"Who do I think it is? It turns out to be you, little girl. How did you find yourself here?" Ji Xiu spoke very politely. Ji Xiu had a good impression of Zhao Ning after their friendship that night.
Kong Li looked at both sides, wiped away tears, got up and rushed towards Zhao Ning, holding Zhao Ning's arm, "Sister Zhao Ning, tell Senior Ji quickly, we were almost injured by monsters that day, it's better for you to help us. Only by stopping it can we have a chance to kill the monster."
Ji Xiu looked at the relationship between the two and joked, "It seems that the little girl is not here to find me. Then the little girl will tell me whether they are innocent."
Zhao Ning stepped forward half a step, and was about to tell the truth about what happened outside the city that day, when she saw a person walking out of the Kong family hall, it was Qin Keyuan.
"Senior brother." Ji Xiu's face straightened, "Do you have demonic energy?"
Qin Keyuan said nothing, his eyes fell on Zhao Ning with questioning eyes.
Zhao Ning continued what she had just said, "Zhao Ning met Kong Nan and Kong Li outside the city that day. The monsters were already unconscious. All they knew was blood and killing. They were the monsters that Kong Nan had removed with his own hands."
