When Lu Kun and Qin Yushu arrived in front of the metal attic, the restrictions here had been opened, and then Nie Wufeng's slightly tired voice came from the attic: "You all come in."
After Qin Yushu heard the voice, he showed a hint of worry and walked inside quickly, followed closely by Lu Kun.
As soon as he entered, he found three people here. Two of the old men looked quite tired. Except for Nie Wufeng, the other old man, Lu Kun, remembered that he was an uncle in the foundation-building period named Zhu. Gu Tianjian on the side still looked slovenly. There is no sign of fatigue.
Lu Kun only glanced at Master Zhu before he sensed it, and then a powerful spiritual consciousness swept towards him. Zhu Siming said with a smile: "This must be Master Nephew Lu. I was there when Master Nephew first entered the school." I found that the power of your spiritual consciousness is not weak, but I didn’t expect that after not seeing you for a year, it became even stronger.”
Lu Kun lowered his head and said: "This junior is Lu Kun, who has met three martial uncles!"
Nie Wufeng also noticed the change in Lu Kun's consciousness. He didn't say anything, but said to Gu Tianjian on the side: "Junior Brother Gu, I'm sorry to bother you. Junior Brother Zhu and I are not young anymore, so we will go back to rest first. .”
Gu Tianjian said quickly: "Senior Brother Nie, Senior Brother Gu, leave this to me. You go back to recover first. This process will last for several years anyway."
Nie Wufeng nodded, turned to Lu Kun and said, "Martial Nephew Lu, your Uncle Gu will tell you what to do next, you just need to follow his instructions."
Seeing Lu Kun's obedient nod, Nie Wufeng said to Qin Yushu again: "Yushu, come back with me."
After saying that, Qin Yushu left first with a worried look on his face.
Zhu Siming did not leave immediately, but looked at Lu Kun with interest and said, "Master Lu, when this matter is over, would you be interested in learning the magic circle carving skills with me for a few days?"
Lu Kun was a little stunned when he heard this, as if he was at a loss. After a while, he replied: "Uncle Zhu, nephew, I have a hidden spirit root, and my qualifications for a hidden spirit root are very poor. I am afraid of living up to your expectations!"
Zhu Siming was not surprised when he heard what Lu Kun said. Nie Wufeng had already mentioned the situation of Lu Kun's spiritual roots to him, so he could only sigh and said: "It is rare to see a disciple with strong spiritual consciousness, but I still have to wait for Senior Brother Nie." Let’s talk about it after the magic weapon is refined.”
"Junior Brother Gu, I'm going back to the cave first. Although I'm fifty years younger than Senior Brother Nie, I still can't bear it."
After saying that, he walked straight out, and in a blink of an eye, Lu Kun and Gu Tianjian were the only two people left in the metal loft.
Gu Tianjian had some understanding of Zhu Siming's behavior. His senior brother was born with a powerful spiritual consciousness and had some unique skills in carving magic circles. He would also try to sprint to the pill formation stage in the near future, and he did not want these skills to be lost.
Gu Tianjian shook his head, got rid of these thoughts, and said: "Senior nephew Lu, I believe senior brother Nie has already briefly told you about this magical weapon!"
Lu Kun replied: "Back to Master Uncle Gu, Master Uncle Nie only told his nephew that this magic weapon can mobilize the magic power in the body and avoid the hidden dangers of hidden spiritual roots. He didn't say anything else."
Gu Tianjian nodded and said: "Then I will tell you about the situation of this magical weapon so that you can carry out the subsequent tasks."
"But first, you must swear with your spiritual consciousness. You must not reveal any information about this magical weapon or Brother Nie to others. As for this spell of swearing with your spiritual consciousness, I will teach you."
Lu Kun saw that Master Gu's uncle's expression was very serious and it was impossible to refuse, so he nodded in agreement. This spell only requires spiritual consciousness, so he can complete it even if his spiritual roots are not there.
After making this oath with the power of his spiritual consciousness, Lu Kun felt that there was something faintly in his spiritual consciousness, and his heart trembled.
Seeing Lu Kun finish his oath, Gu Tianjian looked relaxed and said, "You must have also felt the changes in your consciousness. As long as you don't violate the oath, there will be no side effects. As for why you were made to swear, you will know in a few years." ”
Lu Kun said respectfully: "Uncle Gu, please rest assured, Lu Kun will definitely abide by his oath!"
Gu Tianjian nodded with satisfaction, and then said with a look of reminiscence: "A hundred years ago, Senior Brother Nie was attacked by someone when his spiritual roots disappeared. After returning to the sect with his vitality seriously injured, he switched to my Weapon Refining Peak. , at that time I had only been in the advanced foundation building stage for about ten years."
"As soon as Senior Brother Nie entered my Weapon Refining Peak, he studied the art of refining like crazy. In just ten years, his attainments were as good as those of all the other senior brothers. One day, Senior Brother Nie found me and Senior Brother Zhu and told him his idea."
"He wants to make a magic weapon that can serve as a medium through which his spiritual consciousness can directly mobilize the magic power in his body instead of relying on his spiritual roots. In this way, he can maintain his combat effectiveness when his spiritual roots disappear."
"Furthermore, the chance of breaking through to the core formation stage has also been greatly increased. At that time, the two masters at the core formation stage in our peak took this idea very seriously after hearing this idea, because Senior Brother Nie's strength is obvious to all. If he can advance to the core formation stage, it will be a great advantage to the Yueyang Sect. It’s definitely a blessing to be here.”
"With the help of two alchemy uncles, we invented a spirit-controlling array. This array can only be activated by the power of divine consciousness, and its function is to mobilize mana."
"The three of us spent decades to finally develop this spirit-controlling array into a magic weapon array. Next, we will delve into several auxiliary magic arrays and magic weapon structures."
"After our research, we plan to make a piece of personal inner armor that can cover the Dantian. Its main function is to mobilize mana. Besides, with Senior Brother Nie's skill in wind spells, as long as the Dantian can mobilize mana, any spell can be cast at your fingertips. "
"After we designed the inner armor structure, we found that the refining materials needed were relatively unsophisticated. Fortunately, our Yueyang Sect is famous for its weapon refining. Over the years, we have helped foreign cultivators refine magical weapons and magic weapons. We have accumulated a variety of There are countless materials.”
"We found all the materials related to divine consciousness and spirit control."
At this point, Gu Tianjian took out a black storage bag. A light flashed on the ground in front of him, and hundreds of materials of different colors appeared densely. Lu Kun's scalp was numb.
He then said quite proudly: "In the entire Wei State, only our Yueyang Sect can find so much information!"
"Although these materials can all be engraved with spirit-controlling arrays, we don't know anything about the impact of each material engraved on the magic array on mana, such as the few items tested by Senior Brother Nie."
Lu Kun saw Gu Tianjian take out a piece of purple-gold jade and heard him say: "This is called Purple Spirit Crystal. It is extremely precious and can transmit spiritual consciousness smoothly. After carving the spirit-controlling array, with Senior Brother Nie's The powerful spiritual consciousness actually has no effect on his mana."
He took out another green-green monster scale and said: "This is the scale of a green-horned lizard. You must know that green-horned lizards are one of the few monsters that can affect the monk's magic power. But after these scales are attached to the magic circle, The spiritual consciousness in the recent stage of elixir formation can only mobilize the amount of mana in the late stage of Qi refining."
"These are all materials that do not meet our requirements. Senior Brother's Hidden Spirit Root can only be used sixty days a year. It took ten years and only more than a hundred pieces were tested, which is not enough."
When Lu Kun heard this, he was a little surprised and said: "Uncle Gu, if I come to test it, although there are 300 days a year for use, it will take nearly six years to complete the testing of the remaining materials."
Gu Tianjian shook his head and said: "In addition to the spirit control array, each piece of material must also be tested with two other arrays. These two arrays were also developed by us to stabilize and transmit the power of spiritual consciousness. .”
"Senior brother cannot test three magic circles in one day. After five days, some of them need to be retested, which is why the efficiency is so low."
"You are different from senior brother. You can test for five consecutive days. This ensures continuity. Even if the materials are more complex, you can complete the test in five days."
"And your mana only has the fourth level of Qi Refining. If you cannot mobilize the mana of the fourth level of Qi Refining with your spiritual consciousness in the late stage of Qi Refining, this material can be discarded directly. The efficiency is far beyond that of Senior Brother Nie."
"Now that you have mastered the art of sensing gods and are quite familiar with the art of refining weapons, we estimate that it will take you three to four years to complete them all."
Then Gu Tianjian threw out another piece of animal skin, with a larger magic circle engraved on it, and a place for placing spiritual stones in the middle. Gu Tianjian took out a mid-level spiritual stone and put it in, and said: "This magic circle The formation is an energy supply formation, and it is the most important one besides the spirit control formation."
"The spirit-controlling inner armor we made in the end needs to be inlaid with spiritual stones to function. Every material you make needs to be connected to this energy-supplying array during testing."
"Okay, now that I've finished talking about the spirit-controlling magic weapon, I should teach you how to use the combination of spiritual consciousness and divine sensing skills to test these materials. By the way, are your spiritual roots here today?"
"Uncle Gu Shi, the spiritual root appeared yesterday, but it will not be there for the next five days."
After hearing this, Gu Tianjian brought Lu Kun to these materials. Lu Kun took a closer look and found that there were three copies of all these materials, each of which depicted a different magic circle.
"In the past six months, the three of us have worked day and night, and finally we have carved out all the materials for the magic circle, which is convenient for testing. My spiritual consciousness is weak, so most of the work was done by Senior Brother Zhu and Senior Brother Nie."
"Test this one first. This material is called dazzling spirit stone. It has a soft texture. You can see that the golden magic circle printed on it is the spirit control magic circle. You hold it in your hand first and use this jade sand thread to connect the energy supply magic circle. , add about ten kilograms of power, inject one-third of the spiritual consciousness, and place it in the Dantian."
…
For the next five days, Gu Tianjian taught Lu Kun how to test these basic materials, what data needed to be recorded, how to select materials, etc. After teaching Lu Kun, he was very tired and returned to the cave to rest.
In the past few days, Lu Kun had been frantically acquiring knowledge about the materials of this spirit-controlling magic weapon, making plans for his own refining in the future. However, after Gu Tianjian left, Lu Kun kept an eye on it.
In addition to regular tests, he also tested the effect of these materials on mobilizing his muscle mana. He did not think that the muscle mana and the mana in his dantian were exactly the same.
Lu Kun then spent a full four years here, and his understanding of materials and weapon refining techniques became deeper and deeper. He even memorized a lot of materials that had a positive effect on mobilizing muscle mana.
