Chapter 250 – The Battle of Refining Weapons (Up) (Moonlight Votes Plus)
Chapter 250 – The Battle of Weapon Refinement (Up) (Monthly Tickets)
Huangfu Tian knows that this is the reasoning, but in the end there is some reluctance.
Obviously his alchemy talent, not losing to the other people, but it is this bone renewal Dan, is not what he specializes in.
The results soon came out, the top three were all taken by the Myriad Dan Sect.
Huang Fu Tian refined eight finished pills and two medium grade pills, only getting a fifth.
The Myriad Dan Sect’s score instantly increased by ten points, a full forty points, far ahead of the other sects.
Seeing that things were going in the direction he expected, the Myriad Dan Sect Master was in quite a good mood.
“According to the usual practice, the refining competition will open two days later. The disciples of the five clans who come to participate in the competition can all participate, and the top three will be determined by the merits of the finished products at the end.”
The people from the other four clans were not in such a good mood, and all of them were cursing the Myriad Dan Sect’s treachery and shamelessness in their hearts.
But in reality, when it was their turn on the main stage, the eating didn’t look any better than the Myriad Dan Sect.
Cold Mountain Sect’s left elder looked ugly, Cold Mountain Sect’s score was only twenty-six points, and Easy Sect was at the bottom of the list.
The next match, weapon refining, was their strong point, and they had to make sure to catch up with the score on this one.
Ten Thousand Swords Sect also had the same idea, the disciples of Ten Thousand Swords Sect were mostly sword cultivators, good at making swords and also good at refining swords.
As for the Buddha cultivators of the Limitless Sect, they were good at making talismans.
Even if they don’t get any points in weapon making, there will be a place for them in the next runic production.
Only the Free Sect was slightly embarrassed, saying that they had no specialties, but the nine peaks of the Free Sect had specialties in each peak.
Whether it’s alchemy, artifact refining, talisman making, beast control, etc., all have dabbled.
But the Free Sect disciples balanced development, is the advantage, but also become a disadvantage.
Yue Lingzheng sighed lightly, it seemed that this time in the Five Sect Competition, the Easy Sect was destined to become a runner.
Elder Wu’s mood was equally heavy as he analyzed the next three competitions.
“Other than that disciple from Weaponry Peak, it’s only Lanzhi who knows how to refine weapons. As for talisman making, there is even only one disciple who is proficient in it. On the contrary, it’s the Beast Sentinel, which several other sects are not good at, so we may be able to compete for it.”
Yue Lingzheng smiled bitterly, “That is, the Royal Beasts piece can compete for a few points, but we are too far behind in the end. The ring match ……”
Elder Wu fell silent for a while.
The Easy Sect disciples each had their own strengths, but like the Dan Cultivator, Artifact Cultivator, Formation Cultivator, and Rune Cultivator streams, in terms of absolute strength, they were actually no match for the pure Sword Cultivator.
Although the sword cultivator also has its limitations, after learning the sword to a certain extent, the cultivator’s enlightenment requirements are extremely high, but it is undeniable that the outstandingly gifted sword cultivator has the strength to exceed the same period of the cultivator, and cross the level of the battle.
“The next Five Sect Competition, it’ll be the Easy Sect’s turn to play on the main field.”
Yue Lingzheng leisurely sighed and changed the topic, “At that time, maybe we can reshuffle the cards.”
Just like the Myriad Dan Sect, it was the last place in the last Five Sect Competition, but this time, with the home field advantage, it was hardened to temporarily lead the other sects.
Even the most powerful Ten Thousand Swords Sect was suppressed.
Elder Wu was not so optimistic, among the five great sects, the Easy Sect had originally accumulated weakness, if the ranking continued to fall this time, the sect’s resources for the next thirty years would be further compressed.
The gap between this and the other sects would only grow wider and wider.
It was just that right now, she didn’t have any good solutions.
Hopefully, in the next competition, the performance of the disciples, would be a little better.
The Weapon Refining Competition two days later was held as scheduled.
The Ten Thousand Swords Sect and the Cold Mountain Sect, each sent eight disciples to participate in the competition, plus the two from the Free Sect and the two from the Limitless Sect, a total of twenty people to participate in this battle of refining weapons.
After the Wan Jian Sect disciples got the weapon refining materials, they started casting flying swords without exception. As for the disciples of the Cold Mountain Sect, the spirit weapons they cast were diverse, and there were all kinds of them.
Only to see the twenty disciples on the field, all of them methodically ablated the spirit ore in their hands.
After polishing the spirit ore into a liquid that seemed to flow and shine, they then forged them into various shapes with their spirit power.
In this way, an original spirit weapon embryo was formed.
Forming an embryo was only the first step, and there was still a long way to go before they could grow into a true spirit weapon.
On the competition field, the disciples sweated profusely, using special tools to constantly pound the spirit weapon embryos in their hands.
The disciples of the Free Sect were constantly watching the dynamics of the field, their eyes colored with urgency.
“What is Lanzhi up to? Everyone else is hammering the original embryo, but she’s only now refining the original embryo, her movements are too slow, she’s lagging behind others by a large margin.”
“The spirit weapon embryo in her hand is too small, what can she refine with such a small amount, a dagger?”
“Compared to spiritual weapons such as flying swords, daggers are smaller in size and much less powerful, even if they are successfully refined, I’m afraid they won’t be able to compare to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and the Cold Mountain Sect.”
The concerns of her fellow disciples were not known to Lanzhi.
She had always been undistracted when it came to refining weapons.
When she got the materials, she originally wanted to refine a flying shuttle, but as she watched the spirit ore gradually melt, she had a new idea.
Lanzhi continuously polished the original embryo in her hand, hammering it to become more and more rounded, moving closer and closer towards the vision in her heart.
Zhou She looked at it for half a day and finally determined that what Lanzhi had built was not a dagger.
He spoke with some uncertainty, “What she has in her hand, seems to be …… a hairpin?”
“A hairpin? What a joke!”
The rest of the few people sniffed and felt ridiculous.
The hairpin type of spirit artifact was very delicate and extremely difficult to forge, and if one was not careful, they would fail to refine it.
Even if they successfully created a spirit hairpin, it would be extremely easy for them to fail when it came time to draw and inscribe an array formation.
Zhou She had a different view on this.
“Although the spirit hairpin is difficult to refine, in the event that it succeeds, it is extremely likely to stand out from one type of spirit weapon. It may not be possible to win when refining other spirit weapons anyway.”
When the crowd thought about it, it seemed to be the case, so they stopped talking and continued to check out the situation in the arena.
The weapon refining competition lasted for a total of seven days, in the first few days, all the people on the field were hammering the original embryo, and it was only on the fourth day that one after another people finished hammering the original embryo, and drew and carved formations on it.
The spirit hairpin in Lanzhi’s hand was also hammered to the final step, taking shape.
The people from the other sects were equally surprised to see that the spirit weapon she was going to create was a hairpin.
“The hairpin is dexterous and delicate, but it’s not that easy to draw formations on it. Even long-established artifact cultivators may miss. This female cultivator of the Easy Sect, in all probability, will fail.”
“Xiao Qi of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect has already begun to carve the fourth layer of formations, not only is he a powerful sword cultivator, but he is also a genius artifact refiner.”
“Cold Mountain Sect’s Ye Yu’er, the thing she refined is very odd, resembling a shear but not a shear, resembling a dart but not a dart. But looking at its color and sharpness, I think it must not be weak.”
The crowd watched while whispering about the several favorites.
Suddenly, a “click” sound attracted their attention.
It turned out to be a disciple of the Cold Mountain Sect who had accidentally made a mistake while carving a formation, causing the original embryo of the Spiritual Weapon to be damaged and failing to be refined.
