If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. There are still more than a month before the end of the year. Whether it is practicing the natal magical power or comprehending the Taiyin Sea Swallowing Technique, it will take a long time. It can only be left to the future, the only thing that can be done. , only the "Horcrux" is left.
After careful consideration, Wei Shiqi decided to use the iron rod as a weapon, open up three "virtual positions", and in turn absorb a six-winged water snake spirit, a six-winged water snake spirit, and a blood python spirit, and refine them into something comparable to a magic weapon. "Horcrux".
The key to smelting a "horcrux" is that the weapon body, the demon pill, and the spirit must match each other and come from the same source, so that they can fit together without any hindrance. Iron rods are not the best weapon body. There is one more step to take before opening up the "virtual position" The procedure is to melt several snake demon elixirs into it to improve the quality and make it compatible with the spirits of the six-winged water snake and the blood python. This was the inspiration he got from "Miscellaneous Notes on Refining Weapons".
Considering the possibility of failure, he needs a lot of demon elixirs and souls to practice, preferably the demon elixirs and essences of the six-winged water snake.
Wei Shiqi inquired and found out that if you want to hunt the six-winged water snake, it is best to go to the Poisonous Spider Valley among the three caves and four valleys. There is a deep stream in the Poisonous Spider Valley that is rich in musu grass, blood pythons and six-winged water snakes, all of which are extremely poisonous. It's the middle of winter right now, and snakes and pythons are dormant. If we can find their burrows and catch them all, we'll save a lot of time.
After resting for the night, Wei Shiqi and Yu Yao set off for the Poison Spider Valley early the next morning.
Poisonous Spider Valley is located at the southern foot of Liushi Peak, passing by Chishui Cliff. It needs to pass under the nose of the Five Elements Sect, and its whereabouts will be visible to others. Fortunately, the Five Elements Sect did not have the bad habit of blocking the road. They would only criticize a few characters at most, and when they met senior masters, there were also some active disciples who took the initiative to greet them and guide them diligently.
Wei Shiqi and Yu Yao were not among those who were "attentive". The two disciples on duty had no eyesight and were whispering from a high position on the cliff. Their unscrupulous eyes fell on Yu Yao's face, and their conversation was quite intimate. In the past, they did not dare to do this. Yu Yao was an outstanding figure among the three generations of disciples of the Gouyan Sect, and was deeply valued by the sect leader Lu Wei. But now that the Gouyan Sect has been removed from the direct line and reduced to a vassal of the side branch, they naturally You won't be as polite as before.
Chu Ge, Pu Tianwei's apprentice, happened to be passing by. Hearing a few gossips, he put on a straight face and gave each of them a scalp. He walked down the cliff in person, exchanged a few words with Wei and Yu, and gave them a ride. .
After bypassing Chishui Cliff and walking on an icy mountain road, Yu Yao stuck out her tongue and said, "So you have quite a reputation!"
"Why, is this Senior Brother Chu able to speak in the Five Elements Sect?"
"He is the most proud disciple of Sect Master Park. He is the same generation as Master. I should call him Uncle Master to be polite. This comment is too unfair to him. Everyone is secretly saying that he will be the next member of Five Elements Sect. metropolitan."
Wei Shiqi was startled for a moment. If Pu Tianwei became the head of Kunlun, the Five Elements Sect would really lack a capable leader.
…
The mountain road was rugged and jagged with strange rocks. The two of them bypassed a mountain col and stepped into the Poisonous Spider Valley. It was freezing cold and the poisonous spiders were nowhere to be seen. They were not in a hurry and enjoyed some bleak winter scenery along the way, which seemed like they were traveling together.
The sound of rumbling water could be heard in the distance, and a fine mist of water was carried in the wind, hitting the face with a refreshing feeling. Wei Shiqi stopped and looked up, only to see a corner of the waterfall exposed between the rocks. His view was blocked by the whirling bushes, and he could neither see its origin nor its destination.
Yu Yao caught up a few steps and said: "That's the Jiuqu Waterfall. Under the waterfall is a deep stream. There are six-winged water snakes. The six-winged water snakes can jump out of the water and fly. Their speed is comparable to that of a flying sword. They are extremely difficult to catch."
As if to confirm what she said, there was a "clatter" in the bushes, and a water snake more than three feet long jumped out. It was as thick as a human arm, with dense fine scales all over its body, with three pairs of wings spread out under its ribs, and on its head. A hard horn protruded, faintly flashing with silver light.
Yu Yao was shocked and said hurriedly: "Quickly retreat! That is the 'silver horn' of the six-winged water snake. It has been opened to form wisdom elixirs and is a hundred times more toxic than ordinary water snakes!"
Wei Shiqi knew that his level of weapon refining was limited and he had no requirements for the quality of the demon elixir. Instead of competing with the "Silver Horn", it would be better to catch a few more ordinary six-winged water snakes. At that moment, he took out the bent iron rod from his sword pouch, stared at the "silver horn" with sharp eyes, and retreated step by step. Unexpectedly, he wanted to retreat, but the other party was unwilling to let him go. "Silver Horn"'s eyes showed a fierce look, its tail was slowly coiled, and its head was held high, like an arrow on a string, ready to go.
Don't know what is good and what is bad! Wei Shiqi waved the iron rod in front of him to protect him, and at the same time loosened his hand, and a sword pill rolled out of his sleeve. In order to avoid attracting the attention of "Silver Horn", he pushed the sword ball to roll slowly against the ground, trying to get behind "Silver Horn", and suddenly fired a cold arrow. Unexpectedly, "Silver Horn" was extremely alert and turned around suddenly. Staring at the faint blue sword in the snow, Kenmaru had obviously sensed the threat.
"What a smart little thing!" Wei Shiqi made a quick decision and swung the iron rod to hit the seven-inch vital point of "Silver Horn". "Silver Horn" hissed out his tongue, turned around and flicked the snake's head, and hit the hard horn on the top of his head hard. On the iron rod, there was a sound of gold and iron intersecting. A huge force surged in, and Wei Shiqi exhaled loudly, steadying the iron rod, his eyes flashing, eager to try.
Yu Yao held the short-handled goose sickle tightly, and her palms were slightly moist. The six-winged water snake was always smart to avoid people. She had been to the Jiuqu Waterfall in the Poisonous Spider Valley three or five times, but she didn't even see the shadow of the snake. Who would have expected that the first time she met, she would actually Such a powerful "Silver Horn" can withstand a blow from Wei Shiqi's iron rod. If you are bullied by it and get close, you will have no chance of winning!
There was the sound of rapid footsteps in the distance, and someone shouted sternly: "Which senior brother is here? The Poison Sword Sect is chasing a six-winged water snake, be careful of accidental injuries!"
