"What? Aren't you happy to be in seclusion for a thousand years? You must know that the benefits of practicing in this fire-melting land are unimaginable." Yuan Fulu immediately became proud when he saw Shangguan Wuhui's expression of despair.
"Master, if we are discovered by that ancient demon, we will die."
"Hehe, so, disciple, you have to seize the time to practice. If he finds out, we will run away." As the two of them walked, another volcanic forest appeared in front of them, and the craters of the volcanoes spewed out silk from time to time. silk flame. "Disciple, stay away from these craters. There is a fire python earthworm in each crater. When they hear any noise, they will come out to attack their prey. Their teeth are extremely poisonous, so they are very troublesome."
Shangguan Wuhui immediately became cautious when he heard what his master said. Fortunately, he was holding Haechi. This little guy seemed to be able to predict danger, and his safety was more assured.
"Master, where are we going?"
"Go to the place where I rested. Disciple, don't be afraid. This Huorong Jedi Land is huge. I will take you to find some fun things." Shangguan Wuhui thought about how Yuan Fulu had stayed here for thousands of years. He felt incredible. But while he was looking forward to how many treasures he had collected during that thousand years, he was also very worried about whether these treasures were still there today.
They bypassed the volcanic forest, passed through a sea of fire and sand, and finally stopped after going around and around. Shangguan Wuhui stared blankly at the lava waterfall in front of him, guessing that the master might have hidden something behind the waterfall again. But Yuan Fulu made a seal with one hand and struck the lava pool under the waterfall with one palm. As the lava separated to both sides, a Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram appeared, which was the formation in the "Yin-Yang Wuji Sutra".
"Yes, after these thousands of years, it is still well preserved, and the magma energy is indispensable." Yuan Fulu opened the formation as he spoke, signaling Shangguan Wuhui to enter.
It turns out that there is a U-shaped passage under the formation. It seems that these were set up by his master. Shangguan Wuhui couldn't help but be curious, "Master, do you know that you will come back in the future?"
"No, disciple. Your master and I have been here for thousands of years, and you said how boring it would be to do nothing but practice every day. So when I was bored, I was either refining elixirs, refining weapons, or going out to collect resources. But after a thousand years, I found my way out. By the time I reached the intersection, I had already accumulated a lot of belongings. And I didn’t have any good storage magic weapons with me at that time, so I could only put them here temporarily. I didn’t expect that thousands of years would have passed and I wouldn’t have had the chance to come here. If he hadn’t asked me to bring him You, a cheap apprentice, I almost forgot that you have such a family!" Yuan Fulu's joy was beyond words. At this moment, he really felt that it was worthwhile to stay alone in such a boring environment for a thousand years.
Shangguan Wuhui was also a little flattered, because a family that could excite a master like Yuan Fulu must not be so shabby. He continued to move forward with Yuan Fulu, and the anticipation and nervousness at this moment had long forgotten the burning sensation of the lava world. The little Haezhi also lay obediently in his arms, seeming to have fallen asleep.
Finally, Yuan Fulu opened another level of formation, and a cave space appeared in front of the two of them. Although the lava is surging in the center of the cave, it is arranged in a formation and operates in an orderly manner. Moreover, the furnishings in this cave were as old as ever, spotless, as if they had been cleaned just now. Moreover, the central formation was still a Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram, and Shangguan Wuhui clearly felt the mystery of this formation. Because it completely relies on the energy of lava and ground fire to maintain its operation, it uses the fire power to drive the yang, and then the yin is generated from the anode. The yin and yang rotate endlessly, maintaining the temperature of the entire cave in a pleasant and comfortable range. And on the anode and cathode of the huge Tai Chi diagram, there turned out to be two very unique furnaces. In the furnaces were placed the crude embryos of magic weapons and the magic pill cauldron that had not yet been tempered, which instantly attracted Shangguan Wuhui's attention. Attracted. Because Yuan Fulu's formation layout is so clever. There are two furnaces in Zhiyang and Zhiyin, where magic weapons and elixirs with different attributes are placed respectively. Refining one side in Yang and the other in Yin can increase the power of magic weapons and the potency of elixirs. , and can maintain the polar balance of the formation's operation. My master is really worthy of the title of genius.
"How about it, disciple. These have been refined by formations for thousands of years. If you take out any one of them, it will be a treasure that will make people rush for it. When I asked you to worship me as your teacher, I was a little reluctant. Have you just realized that you got a big deal now, haha!" Yuan Fulu looked at Shangguan Wuhui's dumbfounded look and was very impressed, so he joked.
"Master, your savings over the past thousand years are really quite substantial."
"Of course. Although it is not as rich as the resources of a big family, the resources that the children of those big families can enjoy are much worse than the resources that you can enjoy alone in my family. If old ghost Long Xiang hadn't opened his mouth, I'm not happy to give you so many treasures for nothing. But you can't take these things lightly. You must complete the training tasks I give you. If you fail to meet the standards at a certain time, none of these things will belong to you. . If that's the case, you blame yourself for not working hard enough, or you blame yourself for being too stupid. I gave you the opportunity, whether you succeed or not depends entirely on you, hehe." Shangguan Wuhui heard his master's smile, I know it's not that simple. However, he is really lucky to have such a master. He is confident that when he completes his cultivation, he can become an elite disciple.
"Master, this disciple is so greedy!"
"Haha, if you are greedy, you will have to sweat a lot. You must be on tenterhooks these days." Yuan Fulu closed the passage formation and began to take stock of the supplies in his small stronghold. Shangguan Wuhui put the Haechi down. The little guy was very clever and immediately rushed to the central formation, sat among the yin and yang fish, and began to absorb spiritual energy from the formation.
"Disciple, this beast is really not simple. It knows how to cultivate since it is born. And I heard that like the phoenix, it eats bitterness and understands the heart. It understands people's speech and human nature. The most special thing is that it eats the great evil and cultivates better. Kuai, it is simply the most unusual auspicious beast in the world." When Haizhi heard Yuan Fulu praising himself, he immediately raised his head.
"Haha, you are such a clever little guy. Although I don't have neem here, there are some spiritual things. You are welcome to ask for any." Yuan Fulu said and threw a fiery red pearl fruit to it, and the little Xie Zhi opened its mouth. He caught it, swallowed it, and then fell into a deep sleep.
"Master, do I want to practice here all the time? What can I do here?"
"What are you doing? Do you see? You are here to learn how to refine these crude magic weapons."
"ah?"
"Ah what? If you can't make a good weapon, I won't take you out of the Jedi. Now I think you should choose what to fight."
"Master, are you too harsh on me?"
"What is this? Your qualifications are far worse than when I was young. If you don't work hard enough, it will be difficult for you to become a strong person just by relying on your integrated system. Disciple, if you want to truly stand proudly in the world, which strong person It’s not that you put in more effort than others.” Shangguan Wuhui was quite touched when he heard Yuan Fulu’s words, remembering that in his previous life, he had been pursuing cultivation but never found an opportunity. Although I have encountered many setbacks in this life, I have finally realized my cultivation wish. I should really work harder. He walked to the Yin and Yang furnaces and began to select the rough embryos that Yuan Fulu had forged one by one.
There are only five pieces in the Yang furnace, namely: seal, tower, bell, whip, and mace; four pieces in the Yin furnace, namely: knife, sword, hairpin, and needle.
"Master, can I choose any of these?"
"Yes, you can choose whichever one you like. But are you sure you only saw these nine weapons?" Yuan Fulu asked, obviously disappointed with Shangguan Wuhui.
"Uh," Shangguan Wuhui really didn't notice that there were other treasures here, but realizing that his master was displeased, he started to observe carefully again.
"Disciple, if you want to become a strong person, how can you only focus on one point and forget the overall situation?" Yuan Fulu reminded.
"Overall situation...", "Overall situation..."... Shangguan Wuhui muttered these two words silently, and suddenly an idea came to him. Aren't these two furnaces a pair of magic weapons? With a sweep of his mind, he found that these two furnaces were indeed extraordinary, but he felt that there was more than that, so he continued to search. At this time, he stared at the sleeping Haechi. It should be smarter and knew what was best here. This time he finally discovered that the most powerful thing was the Tai Chi Yin and Yang Fish Formation that supported the operation of the entire formation!
"Master, there are also Yin and Yang furnaces and Tai Chi array diagrams."
"It's not bad, disciple, look at this one." Yuan Fulu hooked his finger, and saw a ring suddenly flying out of the outer circle of the Yin-Yang Fish, "This ring is not bad. Now, disciple, come and choose one. I will teach you the method of sacrifice."
Shangguan Wuhui looked at these twelve weapons and magic weapons, and for a moment he really didn't know what to choose. After all, when it comes to power, the strongest one must be the formation diagram. The second level is either the ring or the Yin and Yang furnaces, and the remaining ones in the furnaces are the third level. However, he had no experience in refining weapons, so these complete sets were really not suitable for him to try. After much thought, he finally chose Mace.
"Master, that's it."
"Okay! Since Haechi has chosen you, it is just right for you to choose this weapon. You are upright and upright." Then, Yuan Fulu began to teach him the method of sacrificial refining, and also taught him the advanced skills of the Yin Yang Sect "Yin Yang Zhen Jing", and combined the formations with him. The burning method is also taught.
In the next few days, Shangguan Wuhui has been studying the "Yin Yang Manual". He knows that if he wants to refine his weapons well, he must understand these theoretical things thoroughly. Mace, which is homophonic to "Jian", is square with four edges and no blades. It is extremely simple, but it also includes the techniques of sword and sword fighting, including striking, owl, stabbing, point, block, block, chop, frame, cut and blow. , sweep, lift, cover, roll, and press. If you want to bring out its essence, you must inscribe the corresponding formations.
