Ling Feng originally planned to kill these bandits to prevent his army from being exposed. However, the appearance of Xuantie Mine at this time gave him another idea.
He plans to use this place as a temporary stronghold, and these bandits can also use it to mine. With Xuantie, he could forge several magical weapons for Qisha Tanlang and the other four. In addition, there is a senior blacksmith who can forge a batch of cutting-edge sophisticated weapons for his army.
Black iron is a very rare and high-grade material, and the price is extremely high. The five magic weapons he made for Qinglong, Baihu and the other five people only contained part of the dark iron, and could only be regarded as inferior magic weapons. If there is enough black iron, he can purify the black iron elite and create a real magic weapon!
Immediately, Ling Feng came to the blacksmith workshop in Taohua Mountain. At this time, an old man in his fifties was forging a long knife.
Although the old man is not young, he has strong muscles all over his body. It is obvious that he has a lot of external skills, and he has acquired extremely high levels of cultivation. Every time he forges, the sound he makes seems to contain some mystery and can shock people's hearts.
This hammering technique is not simple. It can exercise the impurities in the blade to the maximum extent. It seems to be a technique specially used to forge magical weapons. It's a pity that the old man's cultivation level has not broken through the innate level and he cannot exert the mystery of this hammer technique!
This sword is the prototype of the magic weapon that Zhou Bao ordered the blacksmith to forge for him. It is made entirely of black iron, but it is only a semi-finished product at this time. It needs to be forged for hundreds of times until the quality is irreducible before it is completed.
It's a pity that this kind of hundred-refining method is still just a skill of ordinary people. It is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the quality is far inferior to that of real swordsmiths in this world.
There are many myths about divine weapons circulating in this world, all of which are made by legendary divine craftsmen and are astonishingly powerful. And with this blacksmith's skills, he can only forge a top-grade weapon at most.
He was slightly disappointed, but that was normal. If there were any swordsmiths, they would not easily fall into the hands of bandits.
But it doesn’t matter, can it be cultivated?
Then, he looked at the blacksmith and said: "If you are willing to work for me, I can help you break through the innate realm. It is not impossible to become a martial arts master in the future. The only thing you need to do is to forge weapons for me."
The blacksmith remained silent.
Ling Feng said: "Are you acquiescing or rejecting?"
The blacksmith asked: "Do I have the right to refuse?"
"Yes, you don't have to work for me, I won't force you!"
Ling Feng didn't care about an ordinary blacksmith, as long as he was willing to pay a true essence seed, there were many blacksmiths willing to work for him!
The blacksmith glanced at Ling Feng in surprise and said, "I promise you!"
Immediately, Ling Feng gave him a fire essence seed, helping him break through to the innate realm.
The blacksmith felt the hot innate Qi in his body and was very pleasantly surprised. Only when he reached the innate realm did his hammer technique really come into use!
Immediately, he cupped his fists towards Ling Feng and said, "Mo Chi pays homage to the lord!"
…
A month later, enough black iron ore had been dug out in Taohua Mountain, part of which was purified by Ling Feng into black iron elite, and five magic weapons were forged, namely sword, bow, knife, spear, and stick. .
Although Ling Feng was not proficient in weapon refining before, he knew the basic methods and had also explored them, including rune enhancement.
Among them, the bows, knives, spears, and sticks were made for the four generals Sha Po Lang and Wu Qu. They are Qisha Bow, Po Jun Spear, Greedy Wolf Sword, and Wu Qu stick. They are all fourth-level top-grade magic weapons. They are strengthened. Multiple layers of sharp and sturdy runes can also increase their innate energy. Among them, the Seven Evil Bow is the most special. It also has seven matching arrows, all of the same grade. The combination of the two is the most powerful.
For this purpose, Ling Feng specially created four fifth-level martial arts for four people: "Seven Evil Archery Technique", "Breaking Army Spear Technique", "Grean Wolf Sword Technique" and "Martial Arts Stick Technique". Among them, only the Seven Evil Archery Technique can be regarded as his independent Creation, the other three martial arts all have something to learn from. He knows hundreds of high-level techniques and has a profound foundation in martial arts. It is naturally easy to create a Seven Evil Archery Technique.
The last long sword was a weapon forged by Ling Feng for himself. Ling Feng named it the Hunyuan Sword. The sword was simple, gray-white, inconspicuous, and had no runes to strengthen it, but it contained the power of the Law of Chaos. The sword that was originally made of fourth-grade material was upgraded by Ling Feng to the fifth-grade high-grade material.
Of course, Hunyuan Sword is still far behind his true strength. At this time, his superficial cultivation was at the peak of the Martial Sect, but what he had condensed was the top-grade true essence that contained the power of the law. His foundation was so strong that it even surpassed Ling Feng himself, and his combat power exceeded that of the Martial King's peak, almost at the Martial Lord level. In addition, Ling Feng's true strongest strength is his Chaos Yuan Fei hidden in the sea of consciousness, and its strength is already equivalent to that of the late Wu Zun. Therefore, this Hunyuan Sword Ling Feng is only for temporary use, and will be refined again when higher-grade materials are available in the future.
The remaining black iron ore was mixed with ordinary refined iron and forged by Mo Chi into sharp-edged weapons. They were basically mid-grade sharp-edged weapons, far exceeding the ordinary steel knives that Ling Feng originally assigned to the students. As for the fine iron used to forge weapons, it was naturally obtained by melting all the original weapons of the bandits.
Of course, Mo Chi alone couldn't do it, so Ling Feng selected ten potential apprentices from among the bandits to help.
If Ling Feng wants to dominate the world in the future, blacksmiths who forge weapons will naturally be indispensable. Therefore, he hoped that Mo Chi could train more apprentices.
At this time, the weapons were completed, and the strength of all the students had greatly increased. After this battle and a month of training, their spirits and spirits had completely transformed, and they had become truly qualified soldiers.
At this time, it was time for Ling Feng to leave, but there was still some black iron ore that had not been collected in this place.
Ling Feng left a group of Wu Qu's men to garrison at Peach Blossom Mountain, while the others continued south to the mountains for the next step of training.
With Ling Feng gone, Taohuashan's strength was greatly reduced. In order to prevent possible dangers, Wu Qu incorporated some elite bandits into his own team, and asked students from the Yanwu Hall to serve as corps commanders to concentrate on training. The other part continues to mine. Other blacksmith apprentices helped Mochi with forging weapons, while women were responsible for cooking. The entire Peach Blossom Mountain is well-organized, but the food is a little short. They can last for a month at most, and they have to wait for Ling Feng to bring back the food.
Three days later, Ling Feng led more than 70 people to the Ziyun Mountains in the south of Lingzhou.
The Ziyun Mountain Range is the largest mountain range in Lingzhou, spanning several states. Not only are there many groups of bandits, but there are also man-eating monsters deep in the mountains.
Ling Feng came here this time to fight against bandits and collect food, weapons and other resources. Secondly, he was preparing to hunt monsters and use the flesh and blood of monsters to nourish the soldiers and quickly improve their cultivation. These students under his command are all trained as generals, and their warrior level cultivation is still too low.
