The dragon turtle's eyes lit up and turned from dim and dull into large searchlights.
As we all know, Lu Li is an extremely generous person. Not only his classmates know this, but even this strange beast is very familiar with him.
The last time we met, he was given the Dragon God's Seal and the Dragon Pearl. It was such a great kindness, and it was willing to do anything as long as it didn't let him die.
Now, the Dragon Turtle has exhausted all the magical powers that he had accumulated in his body for hundreds of years, and he did not care about his heartache. He was rewarded the next moment...
Dragon blood!
The word "蛟" is not added in front.
The Dragon Turtle couldn't care less about being reserved, and directly abandoned the composure that the Sidu Dragon God should have. Like a vicious dog pouncing on its prey, it opened its huge abyss mouth enough to swallow hundreds of people, and chewed up the jade bottle together.
In an instant, golden blood filled the mouth, and the fragrant fragrance wafted out between breaths.
The black-maned horse swallowed secretly.
You have to be reserved...you have to be reserved...come out with the demeanor of being the first horse under your master's crotch, and you can't show your true nature in front of this big turtle.
At this moment, the horse felt extremely regretful. If it had known that Lu Li's trip would be so exciting, it would have followed Lu Li no matter what, instead of staying in Jinling to accompany his mistress.
It is a horse. No matter how it is dressed up, its appearance is not as good as that of a black cat. It attracts women's love. Moreover, it is so big that Qingfeng has to be very strong to pick it up...
The black-maned horse was so out of place that everyone found the scene particularly bizarre, let alone Lu Li.
Well, Lu Li had no time to pay attention to what was happening in the outside world, and he had no intention of analyzing what the dragon turtle and the black-maned horse were thinking. He just put the cooled nine-tooth nail rake back into the ancient cauldron.
"fire."
"Condensation."
With a whisper, the temperature in this open space finally returned to normal, rising again.
Of course, this temperature is still within the controllable range and will not spread to other areas.
About half an hour passed.
A ray of flame emitting bright golden light appeared out of thin air, and it was the essence extracted from the massive amount of sunlight.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Li pointed out that through meditation and food supplements, the accumulated Tao power spurted out and turned into fuel to help it grow.
Immortals caress my head, knotting my hair and receiving immortality.
Everyone in the world longs for opportunities.
And Lu Li's finger, even if it touches a domestic pig with dull qualifications, can at least make it cross the hurdles on the road of cultivation and compete with the century-old ghost.
Nowadays, it can only be used as a material to stimulate the movement of Dao Fire, and the effect is not satisfactory. It must be tempered and impurities removed again.
Not only that, whether a second tempering is needed remains to be seen.
"What are you doing there, brother-in-law? He's guarding a big cauldron."
"The turtle that just blocked out the sky and the sun is also nearby. Is it the water god of the Yangtze River? It looks really majestic."
The sound of Yuechi came from far away.
In order not to disturb Lu Li, she deliberately lowered her voice and leaned into her sister's ear.
Qingfeng held Xuan Mao in his arms and said helplessly:
"Forging iron."
"You don't know that in the past two days, the entire palace city has been buzzing with clanging sounds. Some ministers working outside the imperial city couldn't bear it and went back to the palace with urgent documents to process."
The tone was full of sorrow.
If it weren't for Lu Li's hard work at night, she would have couldn't help but complain.
Blacksmithing?
Due to the power of the Dao, it is relatively simple to drive the flames to rise. There is no need to concentrate all the energy. Lu Li heard the complaints from Qingfeng and felt bitter in his heart:
In the past, it was just about beating ordinary iron. A blacksmith with superb skills and amazing strength could repeatedly hammer it hundreds of times and reduce the volume of a piece of palm-sized iron to half. This is the limit that ordinary mortals can achieve.
And he can forge it thousands of times and condense it into the size of a matchbox, but then it will be limited by the quality of the material and cannot go any further, otherwise it will break from it.
Now, it's the turn to use divine materials to refine weapons.
I practiced diligently and even mastered the hammering technique, but I suddenly failed because I couldn't find a suitable tool to hammer with, so I could only rely on flames to temper it——
Regardless of the limited increase in temperature of the nearby air, almost all the heat was actually concentrated inside the cauldron. Lu Li could not tell the exact temperature, but it was definitely much higher than the temperature at the center of the volcano.
In addition, the Yang energy contained in the flame can improve the quality of weapons.
These are the original words of Master Qingxu of Tianshi Mansion.
The secret of how to condense a ray of flame from sunlight has even been classified as a secret by various Taoist sects and is only circulated internally.
"There was no such mountain here, because the Great Sage was captured by Xian Sheng when he was making trouble in the Heavenly Palace five hundred years ago. He went to Laojun and placed the Great Sage in the Bagua furnace. After forging it, he opened the cauldron and kicked down the elixir. A few bricks fell into the furnace, and there was residual fire inside, which turned into a mountain of flames."
The black-maned horse shook his head, taking advantage of the moment he spoke to secretly swallow to avoid making a fool of himself.
As Lu Li listened to the original text introducing the origin of the Flame Mountain in "Journey to the West", he became more and more eager to become stronger.
The two bricks flying out of Laojun's alchemy furnace turned into the flaming mountain famous in the three worlds. Only the banana leaves that grew up in the back mountains of Kunlun during the time of chaos when the heaven and earth first opened and the taiyin essence could be extinguished.
Such power is truly admirable and enviable.
Especially now, Lu Li was like a power supply that couldn't be separated. He had to maintain the Dao Fire with all his strength in order to complete the second tempering. He couldn't help but want to be lazy, and this thought turned into the motivation to become stronger.
Not to mention that Samadhi is really popular, other divine fires are also fine.
Nanming Li Fire, Sun True Fire, Liuding Divine Fire, Taiyin True Fire, Red Lotus Karmic Fire...
Lu Li would never choose any of them.
"Boss, what are you thinking about? Look at the fire under the cauldron. It's a little weaker."
At this time, the black-maned horse spoke ruthlessly, interrupting someone's daydreaming, and said coquettishly:
"If it doesn't work, I can help you for a while."
I don't know what the hell this guy is planning, and his expression suddenly became serious.
"Well, I will attack together with the horse-faced seducer clone. We can last for more than a quarter of an hour. You can take this opportunity to adjust your breath."
"help……"
Dragon Turtle struggled to spit out a word.
Lu Li glanced sideways and saw that the protruding dragon horns on his head were getting longer and more sinister, and he immediately knew what the black-maned horse was planning.
It's just that he is greedy and wants a bottle of dragon's blood.
"No need."
After saying this, Lu Li gathered his thoughts.
Almost at the same time, the Dao fire under the ancient cauldron returned to its peak. Through the holes on the top, you can clearly see wisps of smoke floating out, which are impurities.
Extremely quiet.
dull.
After standing in the distance and watching for a long time, seeing that Lu Li showed no sign of moving, Qingfeng and Yuechi hugged Xuan Mao and left, no longer disturbing him to concentrate on his business.
The black-maned horse was focused on it, curious about what the knock-off version of the nine-tooth nail rake made by his master would look like in the end, and what mysteries it had.
If possible, why don't you borrow it to play with for a while to satisfy the second senior brother's addiction?
On the side, the dragon turtle was full of energy. As soon as Lu Li gave the order, it began to spit out the black water of its life. Anyway, with the dragon's blood to replenish it, it could make up for any shortcomings.
It is no exaggeration to say that the small bottle of golden dragon blood just saved me from three hundred years of hard work. After about two thousand years of sleeping, I can shed my thick turtle shell and transform into a real dragon, living high in the nine heavens.
Time passes slowly.
The sun is gradually setting in the west.
Under the setting sun, Lu Li took back his raised hand and slowly adjusted his breathing.
And the flames faded at an even rate.
This time, he calcined for a full two and a half hours, which lasted longer than the first calcining, and this time, he had reached the limit.
Not only is the Dao power in the body almost exhausted, but the weather does not allow it.
The yin rises and the yang wanes, this is destiny.
When the last ray of sunshine disappears, Yin Qi will instantly fill the entire world. In the meantime, the flames based on sunlight and driven by Tao power will become rootless duckweeds, and there is a risk of exploding the furnace.
"When Laojun was refining the Baoqin Golden Rake, Lord Yinghuo, the Five Emperors of the Five Directions, and Six Ding Liujia all contributed their efforts. Our copycat version is not bad either, with the Yangtze River Dragon God assisting us throughout the process..."
"Well, these flames below can also be regarded as an alternative version of the true sun fire."
Lu Li, who has experienced the low-end version of the Peach Banquet, really feels that he still has more to say, but he can just imagine and turn these into motivation for moving forward.
Don't just daydream, and don't belittle yourself. The days ahead are still long, so don't waste a moment.
After cutting off his distracting thoughts, Lu Li opened the lid of the cauldron, photographed the object from the air, and took out the rake from inside.
Because the shape was already given to it during the first forging and the quenching was successfully completed, the main body of the nail has not changed even if the calcination time is extended. However, the surface is covered with a layer of gray substance and looks extremely hard.
Impurities.
Thoughts flashed through.
Lu Li suddenly raised his hand, and while the remaining warmth was still lingering, he punched the air fiercely, which was considered to be the ultimate combat power in his normal form.
clang!
The roar of gold and iron started from this open space and spread in all directions.
The Hall of the Spiritual King.
On the throne, the black-robed Spirit King, who was approving the memorials from various places, took action decisively and used his divine power to condense a yellowish light mask to isolate the sound waves.
Otherwise, the people in the imperial city and its ten-mile radius would either die on the spot, or they would bleed from both ears and become crazy fools.
Even so, there was still a sound coming out, although it was not fatal, it was disturbing.
“What on earth is the saint doing?”
An old minister covered his heart, obviously frightened by the sudden movement.
Next to him, a colleague said helplessly: "We ordinary people have nothing to do with Your Majesty. We can just assist the Supreme Emperor in handling the affairs of the court."
"I heard that the demons and ghosts that have been entrenched in the mountains and swamps are being hunted down. There is finally hope in the world."
"Fortunately, we have the foresight to seek refuge with the Supreme Emperor early on. From now on, as long as we work diligently and do a good job in the human world, we will be able to live as long as the gods after death. Don't live a beautiful life."
The topic gradually changed.
Some people thought of the subjugated king who was still trapped on the north bank of the Yangtze River, unable to advance or retreat, and secretly rejoiced.
the other side.
Qingfeng stroked Xuan Mao with one hand and held his forehead with the other. He sighed towards Yuechi and said, "Your brother-in-law is blacksmithing again."
"Sister..." Yuechi took the initiative to defend Lu Li and said warmly: "Listen carefully, there is only one sound, not continuous training."
"Well, I've been a little nervous recently because I've been in the palace and listened to the clanging noises."
Qingfeng's face was full of resentment.
As the culprit, Lu Li didn't have that consciousness. He used his fist to smash the impurities covering the outer layer of the rake, allowing the magic weapon to ask questions.
Brilliant and eye-catching.
The bright white Taiyi Gold Essence has not yet cooled down, so the color shines to the extreme, and wisps of sharp energy are transmitted out on its own without the need for others to activate it. All creatures that come close will be attacked, even Lu Li. Forgers are no exception.
"water."
"quick."
After hearing the master's instructions, the dragon turtle did not dare to hesitate, opened its mouth wide, and the increasingly dark and gloomy liquid was sprayed out, quenching the magic weapon for the second time.
During this period, Lu Li was not idle. He controlled the rake to float in the air so that it would not be contaminated by the earth's atmosphere.
At the same time, he took out the ancient wooden cup from the Small Universe in his body, and before the black-maned horse could react, a drop of golden blood was drawn out.
The cup shrinks again and returns to the belly.
The Dragon Turtle is a species of dragon and has a strong sense of dragon treasures. It desires extremely much in its heart, but does not dare to ask for it, lest it appear that it is insatiable.
After all, the bottle of precious blood given by Lu Li was already cherished enough.
When can I fight for it?
Only then did he have the nerve to ask for the obviously more precious drop of dragon's blood.
Lu Li's collection of rare treasures and his generous attack style made the dragon turtle completely return to his heart. Even if he is now told to do something that involves life-threatening danger, he will not refuse at all.
However, what dangers can there be in refining weapons?
As the true blood left by the previous Dragon King was poured into the Nine-foot Nail Rake, the vision immediately emerged.
The body of the rake, which was originally bright silver with no lines or carvings, had tadpole-shaped runes manifested and continued to extend outwards, eventually forming a series of tiny pale golden dragons, making it even more extraordinary.
"Okay, we can call it a day."
"hold head high!"
Lu Li responded with a dragon roar.
The Dragon Turtle is still unfinished. With the help of the dragon blood left over from Pudu Cihang's transformation, it has made some progress and can spray out more black water, which can be used to complete the second quenching of the weapon.
Of course, this is not the main thing.
The most important thing is that if you run out of energy midway, you can get replenished again.
However, the rake was finished.
Hope broken.
Right now, it's dusk.
The imperial city seemed to be coated with a layer of golden light, and strips of auspicious energy rose up, as if it could breathe, floating up and down gently, inhaling the spiritual energy from the heaven and the earth.
"Come."
Lu Li waved his hand, without using any magic power or using any means, he just called out softly.
The nail rake seemed to have opened its spiritual intelligence, turned into a stream of light and flew towards it, and was caught in his hand in the blink of an eye.
When this weapon was first forged, it weighed two thousand five hundred and twenty-four kilograms, weighing half the weight of Hanzo. Now that the impurities have been tempered and removed, it still weighs half the weight of Hanzo.
Is it destiny?
By absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, and even the royal energy buried deep under the Jinling Mountains, Nail Hake made up for all the weight he had lost.
"Good baby."
The son does not think the mother is ugly, the dog does not think the family is poor.
The words were rough, but they were indeed in line with Lu Li's current state of mind. After all, this rake was forged by him with great effort, and the hard work and significance involved cannot be appreciated by outsiders.
"It's a pity that there is no opponent to test the troops with."
Without hesitation, Lu Li swung a rake towards the sky.
There is no way, the surrounding palaces are all private property, it will be distressing if it is damaged, and repairing it will also take time and effort.
call!
Nine streaks of light rose into the sky, carrying an endless storm. Just then, there were several thunderclouds stretching for miles in the sky. Before thunder and raindrops could brew, they disappeared directly, as if they had never appeared.
