Chapter 31 Weapon Refiner

Master Chen is at the eighth level of Qi refining. He is over a hundred years old. He has a half-hundred-year-old beard and hair, and a strong physique. His face has been burned by the fire all the year round, making him dark, but he is energetic and has a loud voice.

Master Chen was watching several disciples forge iron. Perhaps some of the disciples did something wrong. Master Chen scolded him with his eyes widened. Several tall and strong weapon-making disciples were being scolded obediently, without even daring to raise their heads.

After training for a while, Master Chen personally demonstrated by swinging a sledgehammer. With his strong physique, he swung the sledgehammer with great force. The red-hot fine iron was beaten until sparks flew everywhere, and gradually the prototype of the knife was forged.

After the beating, Master Chen just wiped his sweat, his breath was even, and he didn't seem to have used any strength.

Mo Hua, who was born frail, looked envious. If only he could have such strength sometime...

"Look, iron is meant to be struck like this. What did you do just now? You are weak. The older girls are more energetic than you at embroidery!"

Master Chen reprimanded several disciples again. He turned around and saw a child with red lips and white teeth and watery eyes looking at him with envy.

Master Chen hesitated for a moment and asked, "Little boy, do you also want to learn to make weapons?"

It is difficult for casual cultivators to make a living. They have to make a living after leaving the sect. Some people cannot learn anything practical in the sect, so they have to find some ways and learn a craft on their own.

There are often monks nearby who send their children to Master Chen to learn how to make weapons with Master Chen so that they can be self-reliant in the future.

Master Chen just collected some spiritual stones at random. If there were no spiritual stones, he would collect some spiritual grains and the like as a bundle of cultivation.

Mo Hua looked at several tall disciples, then looked at his little arms and legs, shook his head helplessly, and then said directly:

"Master, can you help people refine stoves here?"

"Stove?" Master Chen looked at the ink painting, "You are a child, why do you ask this?"

"I asked for my mother."

"Of course I know how to refine stoves, but refining stoves requires a lot of fine iron, which is not a small sum of money when converted into spiritual stones."

"Then if it's a smaller one, wouldn't it be cheaper?"

Master Chen said: "This is natural. Smaller stoves cost a lot less refined iron and manpower, so they are naturally cheaper. However, there are few people in Tongxian City who refine small stoves. The formation requires someone to design and prepare it separately.

I'm afraid it will take a lot of spiritual stones to carve it."

"How many spiritual stones does it cost to refine the smallest stove?"

Master Chen did not hesitate just because Mo Hua was a child. Instead, he carefully took out a piece of paper, wrote down the prices of various materials recorded on it, then calculated them together, and finally added up the stoves of different sizes and scales.

The spiritual stones spent are listed.

Master Chen handed the paper to Mo Hua and then said:

"Of course, this is just the cost of materials. We refiners also need to calculate the working hours. We count them on a daily basis. We will charge as many days as the number of days it takes to refine the stove."

"Oh," Mo Hua wrote down each one, and then said goodbye:

"I made a note of it, and I will come back to you after I go back and discuss with my parents to determine how big the stove will be."

Master Chen hummed, waved his hand and said, "Go back early, little kid, be careful on the road!"

He didn't pay much attention to what Mo Hua said. There were many monks who asked him to make weapons but didn't respond after asking the price. Most of them said they would go back and think about it and there was no follow-up.

What's more, he is still a child in his teens, and he is still refining a spiritual weapon like a stove, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and most likely has little content.

After Mo Hua returned home, he chose a stove that was suitable in size and within his affordability according to the price given by Master Chen. The cost of materials alone was about 150 spirit stones.

There is also the labor cost for refining the weapon, which remains to be discussed.

Mo Hua didn't know how long it would take Master Chen to refine this stove. However, he estimated that it would take ten days and a half, which would be between fifty and seventy-five spiritual stones.

Some of them are beyond the budget for ink painting. At that time, you may have to ask your parents for some spiritual stones, or ask someone to borrow some.

The next most critical thing is the formation.

Mo Hua spread out the molten fire array diagram on the table and began to study it carefully.

The Molten Formation contains five fire-based formations. The strokes of the formations are mostly located away from the fire. Looking at the complex formations alone, they are much more complicated than the Gold-Stone Formation and the Solid-Earth Formation.

Mo Hua sighed slightly, got rid of distracting thoughts, and began to concentrate on writing down the formation patterns and the sequence of brushwork.

I was so focused on studying ink painting that it got dark before I knew it.

Even while eating, Mo Hua was thinking about the patterns of the molten fire array. After chewing the steamed bun for a few times, he was lost in thought and held the steamed bun in his hands in a daze.

Liu Ruhua looked angry and funny, pinched his cheek and said, "The food should be delicious, and you can think about things after eating."

Mo Hua came back to his senses, chuckled, then concentrated on eating, and ran back into the house after eating.

Mo Hua had almost memorized the patterns of the Molten Formation, and then spent another hour practicing on the straw paper with ink that did not contain spiritual power. Then at midnight, he entered the Sea of ​​​​Consciousness and began to practice the formation on the stone tablet.

Law.

Looking at the formation pattern alone, although it is more complicated, the basic structural logic is no different from other formations. It is not difficult to memorize the formation pattern, but the difficulty should be the spiritual consciousness.

The consciousness of ink painting may not be able to support him to draw a complete molten formation diagram.

Ink painting began to draw the molten fire formation on the remaining monument.

At first, the three formations went smoothly, but when it came to the fourth formation, it became obviously difficult, and the consciousness gradually became sluggish, and there was a feeling of drying up.

Mo Hua frowned slightly.

By the time the fourth pattern was finished, there was a sharp pain in the sea of ​​consciousness, as if the riverbed had begun to have mottled cracks when the tide had receded.

Mo Hua quickly stopped and quickly erased the formation patterns on the remaining stele, and the stinging pain in his consciousness was relieved.

Mo Hua collapsed on the ground where the sea of ​​consciousness seemed to be both virtual and real, gasping for air.

"It's over, the spiritual consciousness is a bit different..."

Mo Hua's spiritual consciousness was only enough to draw four formation patterns. After painting four formation patterns, there was no energy left to draw the fifth formation pattern.

It seems that there is only one formation left, but the spiritual consciousness cannot be strengthened quickly in the short term, and this only one formation may be stuck for a long time.

"What to do?"

Mo Hua pondered in his mind.

There is no shortcut to the growth of spiritual consciousness. This is generally accepted knowledge in the cultivation world.

At least for the monks in the Qi Refining Realm of Tongxian City, this is generally recognized.

Mo Hua asked Yan Jiaoxi for advice, and Yan Jiaoxi also said that the growth of spiritual consciousness can only rely on the improvement of cultivation. The higher the level of cultivation, the stronger the spiritual consciousness will naturally be.

The second is to enhance the spiritual consciousness through the use of spiritual consciousness. The more and more frequently a monk uses his spiritual consciousness, the stronger his spiritual consciousness will naturally be. For example, due to the common formation techniques, formation masters need to use their spiritual consciousness frequently. Naturally, the spiritual consciousness will be stronger.

His consciousness is much stronger than that of ordinary monks.

Mo Hua also asked if there was any special method for cultivating spiritual consciousness, and Yan Jiaoxi said bluntly that there was no such thing.

No matter it is in ancient books or records of various methods of aristocratic families, there is no safe and reliable method for cultivating spiritual consciousness. Some of them are mostly evil and heretical practices. Once practiced, most of them will become evil and become possessed by everyone.

And the demonic cultivators who punished him.

Whether it really doesn't exist or is secretly collected by a wealthy family is unknown.

But even if there were, ink paintings would definitely not be available, and even if they could be obtained, they would not dare to practice at the risk of going crazy.

Mo Hua is currently on the third level of Qi refining, and will not be able to break through the fourth level of Qi refining in a short time. It is impossible to enhance his spiritual consciousness by increasing his cultivation.

There is only one method in front of you:

Keep drawing formations.

The best shortcut is the method without shortcuts.
