When Liangchen returned to the store, Mr. Ye didn't ask him why he stayed out all night, but just hinted that he should pay attention to safety.
In this way, during the day he was doing business in the shop, and at night he and Sheng Qianshan hunted monsters all night long. Ten days passed in this way.
Liangchen's actual combat experience has become more and more proficient, and he can basically achieve the rhythm of killing two before taking a break, and the two of them are working together more and more tacitly.
The speed of hunting spiders has increased, and more and more loot has been distributed.
Now the spoils harvested in one night are divided into more than one hundred gold per person!
What surprised him the most was that he discovered that fighting could not only improve combat skills, but also increase mana, and the speed seemed to be much faster than the previous simple meditation practice.
This made the original worry of not being able to complete daily practice due to hunting disappear.
Although I don’t know whether the process of meditating and recovering after exhausting my mana every time played a role in improving my level, or whether my becoming more proficient in casting spells in battle played a role.
But whatever the reason, it made him more determined to take the path he chose.
Fighting is tiring, painful, and sometimes injured, but with the desire to become stronger, all difficulties become a process worth enjoying!
This morning, after the two of them worked together to kill an ice-kissed spider, Sheng Qianshan said, "Let's go back and sell the tooth later. I need to buy something."
"Okay, I'll hand in the mission when I get back to the city next time." Liangchen had exactly what he meant.
The two returned to the city and went straight to the city main hall. When they arrived at the counter, they handed a bag of ice-kissed spider teeth to the receptionist.
The clerk counted the materials and paid the two of them more than 1,700 spiritual gold.
In a good time, the two of them each shared more than 800 spiritual gold!
Then the two of them went outside to find a shop specializing in materials and sold Xuan Bingsi, and they actually got more than 700 spiritual gold!
The two of them divided more than three hundred spiritual gold.
Ten days of hard work finally turned into a heavy harvest, and the two of them were in a good mood.
"Are you going to continue tonight?" Liangchen asked.
"Let's rest for two days. I need to prepare some materials and ask someone to refine a better magic weapon." Sheng Qianshan said.
"Okay, I also need to do something." Liangchen said.
"Brother, let's meet at the same place at the same time in two days." Sheng Qianshan hugged his fists and turned to leave.
"See you at the same place." Liangchen returned the greeting, and the two separated.
I returned to the store at a good time and thought about it in my heart.
"In the past ten days, I have earned more than a thousand spiritual gold, plus the five or six hundred gold I originally saved, so I have a lot of wealth."
But when I looked up and saw the swords in the store that were often priced at thousands of gold, I couldn't help but laugh to myself.
"A set of materials is forty or fifty gold, and the rent of the earth's fire is one hundred and one day. It is estimated that it takes two and a half hours to refine a sword, plus half an hour of rest time. In this way, four swords can be refined in one day.
The cost of materials plus elixirs is two hundred, and the rent is one hundred, which means three hundred spiritual gold is needed per day. The money I have saved is enough for me to go to Zhihuofang to practice for four or five days! "
Liangchen thought about it in his mind and decided to go to Zhihuo Workshop to refine the sword.
Next, he went to the Immortal Building to buy eight materials for refining the Maple Leaf Sword, and then said hello to Uncle Ye, saying that it would take two days to go to Zhihuo Workshop to refine the sword.
Uncle Ye hesitated but said nothing and nodded in agreement.
Liangchen brought the materials to Zhihuofang, and after two days, he entered the ground fire room.
He opened the earth fire, gathered the cauldron, put in the materials, smelted, condensed, and quenched.
fail!
Meditate and rest before starting the second portion.
fail!
There is no time to refine weapons, and two days flew by in the blink of an eye!
"Alas~" Liangchen looked at the eight useless swords on the ground and sighed.
"Sure enough, it's not easy." After packing up all the things, Liangchen returned to the shop in despair.
"What's the result of the weapon refining?" Uncle Ye asked softly when Liangchen came back.
"Oh, it's so difficult to always find the best time!" Liangchen said with a sad face.
"Failure is the only way to success, don't be discouraged. It took me a long time to make my first sword, Uncle Ye.
If you can succeed easily like this, there will be no room for my old face! "
Seeing that Liangchen was a little depressed, Mr. Ye joked.
"Liangchen understands. But when is the best time? Isn't there a sign?" Liangchen cheered up and asked.
"The best time, to put it bluntly, is the time when the sword desires it most, and of course there are signs. Tempering the sword is equivalent to injecting soul into it, turning dead things into living things.
If the sword is equivalent to a human being, after we build its body, we only need to give it a sip of water and it will come back to life. When should we give it a drink of water?
Of course when it wants to drink water, not when we think it wants to drink water!
Therefore, you should sense the sword more often. A sword is not a person. People can give you hints, such as a word, a gesture, or even a look. But a sword cannot, it needs you to experience it yourself.
Every change in it may be its hint, but we just don’t understand its language. do you understand? "
Mr. Ye explained carefully to Liangchen.
"I kind of understand, but I still don't quite understand." Liangchen felt like he understood.
"As long as you understand a little bit, it's good. When Master taught me, I didn't understand it at all.
Master said that the realm of refining a weapon is divided into three steps. The first step is to sense it, the second step is to integrate into it, and the third step is to become it. It's a pity that for so many years, I have only been lingering on the first step. "Uncle Ye said.
"Master, let me in. It's up to you to practice. You should study more!" Mr. Ye went out after saying that.
“Sensing it, integrating into it, am I it?
Sensing it, integrating into it, I am it! ....."
Liangchen muttered while thinking.
...........
In the evening, Liangchen arrived at the south gate again and saw Sheng Qian Shan waiting for him again.
"How long have you been waiting? Brother" Liangchen asked.
"I don't have much time, I have more free time." Sheng Qianshan said, playing with a pair of light silver gloves in his hands.
"Is this the magic weapon you said you wanted to refine?" Liangchen asked, looking at the glove.
"Yes. All the spiritual gold I have saved for so long was used to buy it. Two thousand gold is still the cost price." Sheng Qianshan said with pain.
"Ah! Why are gloves so expensive?" Liangchen asked with a breath of air.
"The silver glove can increase the attack power by two levels at critical moments, although it can only last for one stick of incense."
Sheng Qianshan said with beaming eyebrows.
"Good stuff, it's really good." Liangchen said enviously, looking at the gloves with a soft halo.
"Let's go, I suddenly became a pauper again. Haha!" Sheng Qianshan said with a smile.
The two began their overnight journey of hunting and killing monsters again.
Time flies and half a year has passed. During the day, I manage the store, and at night, I hunt monsters. I occasionally take a two-day break and go to Zhihuo Workshop to refine weapons.
As long as Sheng Qianshan saved enough money, he would buy a piece of equipment, including bracelets, rings, and necklaces. The most expensive piece of inner armor cost him nearly five thousand gold.
Sheng Qianshan is getting more and more powerful and can easily defeat the Ice-kissed Spider alone, but Ye Liangchen still hasn't successfully refined a magic weapon.
After fighting for so long, the two not only cooperated more closely, but also established a deep friendship.
If not for this, Sheng Qianshan must have gone to kill the Ice-kissed Spider alone.
But the two of them also have the advantages of being two. They can chat during breaks, make a few jokes to pass the boring time when looking for monsters, and there will also be someone to take care of them when they are injured.
After all, when hunting demons outside, you will always encounter various accidents.
Once when the two were fighting, another mutated ice-kissed spider jumped out of the grass.
If it weren't for the two of them working together, he would probably have died seriously injured even if he didn't die!
Even so, the scars on the two of them are getting more and more like Lingjin.
Moreover, the two of them cooperated tacitly, killing monsters faster and faster. In the past, they turned around and ran away when they encountered pairs of spiders, but now they dared to rush up and fight them.
Liangchen's combat experience is getting richer and richer. When encountering two ice-kissed spiders, he can lure one away and deal with it alone without falling behind, until Sheng Qianshan kills the other ice-kissed spider and comes back to encircle and kill it!
This also made Sheng Qianshan look at him with admiration. After all, it was quite difficult for someone in the middle stage of Qi refining to fight against the Ice-kissed Spider in the late stage of Qi refining without falling behind.
Of course, this is also because Liangchen has been fighting this spider for too long and is too familiar with all the opponent's moves and weaknesses.
Unlike Liangchen, whose realm is still lingering in the middle stage of Qi training, Sheng Qianshan's realm has been upgraded from a late-stage swordsman to a late-stage peak state, as if he can advance to a swordsman at any time!
This makes Liangchen envious, but judging from his condition, it will probably take less than a year and a half before he will reach the advanced stage of Qi training.
He originally thought it would take two or three years to advance to the later stages of Qi training, but now he is more than half way ahead of schedule, which makes him very excited.
And in the past six months, Liangchen received more than 20,000 gold!
Although most of the spiritual gold was consumed in refining the weapon, due to the improvement in the efficiency of defeating monsters in the later period, and on average, he would take two or three days off for more than ten days to allow him to refine the weapon, so he still saved eight or nine thousand spiritual gold!
In the past, this was a number that he could not even imagine.
But just like this, Wulingjin and Wulingjin were dug out. Only he knows the hard work involved!
Sheng Qianshan always laughed at himself for being stingy. After earning so much spiritual gold, he was reluctant to buy a few pieces of equipment for himself, but how did he know that all his money was useful.
"Well, after all, I haven't refined a magic weapon yet, and I'm really embarrassed to say that I'm learning to refine weapons.
Let him continue to think that he is stingy! "Liangchen sighed secretly in his heart.
