Chapter 183 Dragon Snake Heaven Question
Murong Ji suddenly said: "I can refine this elixir, but the prerequisite is that you provide the herbs and the alchemy furnace."
Tumagu's eyes gradually sharpened, "Are you serious?!"
Murong Ji nodded, "Seriously."
"Okay! If you can refine it into a pill, I will trade with you for the corresponding holy weapon materials!"
After he finished speaking, Tumagu raised his hand, and Murong slapped it, and the two of them clapped their hands as an oath.
Then, at Tumagu's suggestion, Murong Ji took some spiritual materials to complete the current transaction. He chose the materials for refining bows and arrows.
Until this moment, Murong Ji had never forgotten the big bow and the scene of shooting Yelu Hongji to death with an arrow.
Murong Ji walked into the yard that Tumagu had arranged for him and took a quick look. It looked like a small farmyard.
Inside the house, there are ordinary farmhouse rooms.
In the following days, Murong Ji, apart from practicing, was recalling the patterns on the bow.
That was the first magical weapon he had ever touched, and he was deeply impressed, especially the silver stripes inside and outside the bow that looked like circuit boards.
As for what material the bow is made of, Murong Ji still doesn't know.
The patterns were simple, and with a little thought, he was able to deduce and draw out the patterns inside and outside.
Murong Ji rubbed his aching forehead and pondered the three-dimensional pattern drawn on the paper.
Although this thing is not complicated, he has no idea how to refine it. He doesn't even have any experience in blacksmithing.
[I can only try. ]
The weapon refining method given by Master's Wife Su Ru is very simple, and the process of refining magic weapons is clear.
This method, after being smelted into an artifact, does not have any special effects such as increasing the speed of the circulation of true Qi.
The power of the magic weapon depends entirely on the spirit and unique effects of the material itself.
For example, the Tianya Sword was made of the Nine Heavens Iron. That iron had existed in the Arctic ice field for who knows how long, thus producing icy cold air.
Also, because of Kuxin Sanren's hatred of evil, after years of nurturing, several subsequent sword master's descendants followed the same path, and thus developed the current ability to restrain the evil spirits in the world.
[This refining method relies heavily on the effects of the refining materials themselves, and the possibility of refining other additional abilities is extremely small.]
Murong Ji frowned tightly. He felt something was not right. This did not match his impression of magic weapons and magic treasures.
The Qingyun Sect might have a higher level weapon refining method, but this... is too simple, right?
【I wonder if it is possible to combine the two. 】
Murong Ji frowned tightly. He had no experience in refining magic weapons and could not make a judgment. Other materials were fine, but the materials for the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon were ruined by himself.
There are almost no second chances and luck gained.
Murong Ji touched the Vajra Bracelet on his wrist. He didn't understand what level of magic weapon this thing was.
If it could impart some knowledge about refining equipment to me, or even provide some popular science knowledge, it would be of great help.
As soon as the thought came to mind, the sound of the Vajra Bracelet was heard.
[In this world, everything is in its infancy. The elixir, weapon, and talisman array are still in their initial stages. Even the three types of talisman, weapon, and array have not yet evolved completely. They are just a thing in this era.]
[According to the development of this world, it will take hundreds of thousands of years for the four major auxiliary sects to mature. ]
[Any concept of refining equipment in the novels you read can shorten the refining process in this world.]
[In this era, if you specialize in one of the two, you can apply your experience and methods to the other. There is not much difference between the patterns of the weapons and the patterns of the formations.]
Murong Ji rubbed his forehead, "Why do I suddenly feel like I'm the chosen one?!!"
Coming back to his senses, Murong Ji took the method given by his master's wife Su Ru as the basis, mixed it with a lot of things, and figured out a set of procedures on his own.
He didn't know whether it would work or not, so before refining the sword, he planned to use the materials for the bow and arrow to try out the effect.
A few days later, Deacon Li came and said that the ten-day deadline was up and it was time for them to leave.
Murong Ji bowed to express his gratitude and asked Deacon Li to pass a message to his father that he would stay here for a while.
Tu Ma Gu's work was also very fast. The necessary herbs and places were prepared.
Murong Ji stretched his neck to look down. It was a sea of fire. The southern region had a lot of rain and many volcanoes.
"Is this place okay? If not, we can look for another one." Tumagu said.
Murong Ji glanced around, pointed to a suitable place, and said, "Okay, that place will do. Help me clear out a space there."
Tumagu turned around and said a few words, and someone went to do it immediately.
After tidying up, Murong Ji sat cross-legged there and studied the washbasin-sized copper alchemy furnace. It was quite usable.
Afterwards, he put the herbs away one by one.
The Shenzhu Pill, this thing had been refined by someone in the previous life. The external elixir has been developed for thousands of years, and the steps of refining the elixir are clearly written.
For Murong Ji, the difficulty was to control the temperature. Another thing was that his own Dan Huo was not enough, and he did not have the profound cultivation of his master Tian Buyi, so he needed to rely on external forces. He mobilized his true Qi to mobilize the fire from below. As soon as he entered the furnace, the copper furnace instantly became hot and fiery red. Murong Ji was startled and could not help but be a little more careful.
The process of refining medicine was boring and extremely laborious, and Murong Ji was very cautious in every step.
After smelting the pill, Murong Ji slammed open the furnace lid with his palm force and slowly took out a light blue pill with his true energy.
Murong Ji was a little surprised. The quality of this pill seemed to be better than he had imagined. Refining the pill according to the "Zhouyi Cantongqi" seemed to have become a lot simpler.
He put the pills in a small box and handed it over.
Tumagu took it with a serious look on his face, looked at it carefully, and then a smile appeared on his face, "The deal is done, I will take you to get the things now."
Murong Ji bowed and said, "Senior, could you please send the things over? I want to borrow the treasure land to refine a magic weapon."
Tumagu was startled, but he thought it was okay. "Okay, I'll have someone send it over right away."
After sending Tumagu away, Murong Ji looked at the magma below, his heart calm, thinking carefully about each step of refining the weapon.
There is nothing to learn from this time. If I can make the bow and arrow successfully, then it will be successful. If I fail, there may not be a second chance.
Murong Ji opened the backpack and laid out the refining materials one by one, once again carefully identifying the characteristics and functions of each material.
Take out a notebook and compare it with your research over the past few days.
Take out a small portion of the material and use it for experiments first, which can also reduce losses.
Mobilize the fire and melt the materials one by one.
After a long time, Murong Ji held a bow about 30 centimeters long in his hand. This bow was different from the big bow in his previous life. It was a recurved bow and had not been strung yet.
Without stringing the bow, Murong Ji felt that it was not as good as the bow in his previous life. He frowned, feeling helpless, as he could not find out what the problem was.
He sighed lightly and glanced at the spiritual materials and minerals beside him. Those were sent by Tumagu. The materials were precious and should not be used indiscriminately.
The magic weapon that goes with him will be with him for the rest of his life. As he grows, the magic weapon also needs to grow with him, so he cannot be careless.
Otherwise, the embarrassing situation of the previous life would occur, where the sword would become useless and the damage would be less than that of a slap from one's own face.
There is no other choice but to leave the sword to future generations.
After thinking about it, Murong Ji felt that there should be some restrictions on the materials. He sat down cross-legged and fixed his eyes on the broken iron plate.
Looking at its weight, there would definitely be some left over after refining a flying sword.
Without giving it any more thought, he simply pulled the iron plate over, melted it with fire, and made iron ingots which he set aside.
Inadvertently, Murong Ji caught a glimpse of the diamond bracelet on his wrist and slapped his forehead, thinking how stupid he was. He had a top-level magic weapon on him, and it even had a spirit.
What a great reference, how could I have forgotten it!
He quickly took off the diamond bracelet and looked carefully at the patterns on it. They were all fine reliefs, almost containing all things. Vessel patterns? There was not a single hair.
"Cooperate with me. If you can't do it, you can just give me a part."
The diamond bracelet suddenly lit up, and gold and silver threads appeared on the bracelet.
This was the first time that Murong Ji saw the pattern on the vessel. It looked like seal script, but it was not words. The gold and silver threads matched each other beautifully.
The patterns were not that complicated. Murong Ji drew the two patterns stroke by stroke, and then tried to merge them into the original patterns of the bow.
This thing is like a three-dimensional circuit board, very complicated.
He refined it again, outlined the pattern, and incorporated some iron ingots before casting the bow body. He then picked up a tendon from an unknown animal, refined it, and put on the bowstring.
Murong Ji used the remaining materials and the small bow to refine them all into arrows. The requirements for arrows were much simpler, and they only needed to eliminate air friction and sound.
The first time he drew his bow, Murong Ji pulled it hard, instantly draining away half of his inner energy.
"Good fellow, if this arrow is shot out, will it directly send the Shangqing master away?"
He just thought about it. Murong was not sure what level the Shangqing realm was. He had never touched it and had no idea about it.
Murong Ji gently stroked the bow. This world was very wonderful. If spiritual energy nourished objects, they would gain spirituality; if evil energy nourished them, they might give birth to life.
Murong Ji thought of the beast god formed by evil spirit, and felt a little curious and a little emotional.
After coming to his senses, he carved three words on the bow: Dragon Snake Bow.
After putting away the bow and arrow, Murong Ji was in a good mood. This weapon refining method was useful. He then began to design the pattern on the sword.
After preparing for half a month, Murong Ji got angry again and started to refine the sword.
This time, he spent several days, and refined the sword blank meticulously. At this point, Murong Ji suddenly paused, "What name should we give it?"
After thinking for a while, he carved two words on the sword, the seal script from his previous life, "Heavenly Questions".
After carving the words, I suddenly felt dazed for a moment. All kinds of things in my past life kept flashing before my eyes like a screen. Some were still hard to forget, while some had long been forgotten.
