Chapter 251: The Battle of Weapon Refining (Next)
Following this Cold Mountain Sect disciple, two more Ten Thousand Swords Sect disciples made mistakes, and the original embryo of the flying sword in their hands shattered into two halves.
At this point, the field is still in the refining of weapons, there are still seventeen people.
Lanzhi took a deep breath and looked at the hairpin in her hand, carving its formation on it.
Not long after, beads of sweat seeped out from her forehead, but she didn’t care to wipe it off, and carved the second layer of the formation on top of the first layer of the formation.
For a Grade 2 Spiritual Weapon, at least fifteen layers of formations needed to be engraved, which was a great test for a refiner.
As long as there was a mistake in one of the formations, it would be a lost cause.
If it was light, the grade of the spiritual weapon would be lowered, if it was heavy, the original embryo would be destroyed and nothing would be gained.
Time passed little by little, in the blink of an eye another day passed, during this period, there were three more people who failed and retired in disgrace.
Among the remaining fourteen people, Xiao Qi of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect had the fastest progress, having already carved sixteen layers of formations.
What he was going to refine was clearly a Grade 2 Medium Grade Spiritual Armament!
At this moment, Xiao Qi was in the process of carving the seventeenth layer of formations.
If this layer of array formation was successfully refined, the only thing missing from a Grade 2 Medium Grade Spiritual Weapon would be the last layer of array formation.
Ye Yu’er, who was not far away from Xiao Qi, was only a tad slower than Xiao Qi, and successfully carved out the fifteenth formation.
At this point, the spirit weapon in her hand transformed into a Grade 2 Lower Grade Spirit Weapon.
If she turned this item in now, she would be the first person to complete the refining of the weapon.
However, after Ye Yu’er finished carving the fifteenth formation, she had no intention of stopping, but after a short rest, she continued to carve formations on it.
In terms of speed, of all the people who refined weapons, I’m afraid that the Easy Sect’s Lanzhi, was the slowest person.
At this time, she was only able to finish carving the eleventh layer of formations.
Seeing this scene, the crowd of the Free Sect had almost no hope for her, and turned their attention to Chen Yufei of Weaponry Peak.
“Senior Brother Chen has already inscribed fourteen formations, as long as he finishes inscribing the formation at hand, this Grade 2 Spiritual Artifact will be considered complete.”
“It’s only a second grade inferior spirit weapon, so I’m afraid it’s difficult to win the top three awards. Xiao Qi of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and Ye Yu’er of the Cold Mountain Sect are both running for second grade middle grade spirit weapons.”
Several people were silent, even if Chen Yufei managed to refine a lower grade spirit weapon, he might not be able to score in the weapon refining competition.
Chen Yufei, who was on the field, had apparently realized the same thing after carving the last formation.
If he wanted to win, he had to refine a Grade 2 Medium Grade Spiritual Weapon to do so!
With a clench of his teeth, he actually once again carved a new formation on top of the spirit weapon.
This scene was naturally seen by the Prosperity disciples who were constantly watching him.
“Senior Disciple Chen he, is actually drawing the sixteenth formation!”
“If we want to win the score, we can only put up a fight, I support Senior Brother Chen’s approach.”
However, this sixteenth formation, in the end, failed to draw and carve.
Chen Feiyu’s face changed slightly, and he hurriedly eliminated this formation, not allowing it to affect the previous fifteen formations.
Looking at the long damask in his hand, a look of exhaustion and helplessness appeared on his face, it seemed that the second grade inferior spiritual weapon was already the current limit.
Right after Chen Feiyu handed over the refined long damask, people continued to come on and hand over their refined spirit weapons.
The ones they refined were all second grade lower grade spirit weapons.
Each spirit weapon had at least fifteen layers of formations.
And at this time, Xiao Qi finally finished drawing the eighteenth formation.
At this point, the first Grade 2 Medium Grade Spiritual Weapon in the entire arena was born.
The Jindan Elder who was responsible for appraising the spirit weapon stroked his beard in admiration.
“Senior nephew Xiao’s bone age is only forty, and he is already able to refine a Grade 2 Medium Grade Spiritual Artifact, he truly deserves to be the leading figure of the new generation of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.” Elder Tang of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect smiled faintly and shook his head modestly.
“It’s just a matter of each having their own strengths. Friendship first, competition second, our five clans have always been in the same breath, no matter what the final result is, I hope it won’t affect the relationship between the five clans.”
The Jindan elders of the other four clans all smiled skin-deep at the words.
The mouth of the one surnamed Tang spoke in a grandiose manner, what with camaraderie coming first and the competition coming second, it was because the Ten Thousand Swords Sect had perennially overpowered the other four sects, occupying the most cultivation resources.
If it was really their turn to be at the bottom, it would be strange if they could laugh.
Following Xiao Qi, Cold Mountain Sect’s Ye Yu’er also finished refining and presented a uniquely shaped golden shear.
Up to this point, a total of two people had refined Grade 2 Medium Grade Spiritual Weapons, and the rest of them had all refined Lower Grade Spiritual Weapons.
The number of people who remained on the field to refine was getting smaller and smaller.
In the end, there was only one person left from the Easy Sect, Lanzhi.
It was as if she couldn’t feel the changes in the outside world, still carving out formations without slowing down.
After completing the 14th formation, Lanzhi wiped her sweat, only the last formation was missing, and the spirit hairpin would be complete.
But this last formation was also the most difficult one.
Some of the people who did not think too highly of her beforehand seemed to not expect Lanzhi to be able to hold out for so long, and had a different opinion of her.
“This female disciple of the Easy Sect is quite the sinker.”
“With such a heart, one can go far in the artifact refining course.”
At those words, a trace of impatience flashed in Xiao Yu’s eyes.
In his opinion, this female cultivator named Lanzhi was far worse than his elder brother.
Not only was the speed of refining weapons slow, but the grade was also a notch worse, which was simply a waste of everyone’s time.
This Easy Sect, really couldn’t catch up with their Ten Thousand Swords Sect even if they beat their horses.
However, Xiao Yu never expected that the spirit hairpin that he disliked so much would be praised by several Jindan elders.
“This forging craftsmanship is truly exquisite. To be able to carve out fifteen formations on a tiny jade hairpin is quite rare at this age.”
“This hairpin is not much bigger than an ordinary jade hairpin, yet it serves the purpose of concealing aura and self-defense, so it is truly original.”
After tasting the spirit hairpin, they commented on the other spirit artifacts.
“This spirit armor is moderate, only slightly thinner and lighter.”
“This flying sword has sixteen formations, and is two points sharper than the other few lower grade flying swords.”
“Although this plum blossom dart attack speed is fast, only slightly larger in size, easy to be detected ……”
Only after all the lower grade spiritual weapons were tasted did the several elders drop their gaze onto the two middle grade spiritual weapons.
“The lightness and speed of this flying sword is rare. Of the eighteen formations on it, a full twelve are to increase its speed. The speed that it has been catalyzed is no less than a top-grade flying sword.”
“Although the speed is faster than normal medium grade spiritual weapons, the single-minded pursuit of speed makes its toughness and sharpness greatly reduced, making it unsuitable for heavy use.”
Another Elder carefully examined it, but shook his head and picked up the golden shears on the side.
“The shape of this golden shear, is quite peculiar, and is very different from the usual golden shear spirit weapons.”
Ye Yu’er sniffed and smiled blandly without losing her generosity.
“This golden shear is made of two separate half-moon shaped darts, combined. It can be split and transformed into two darts, but also combined into a golden shear.”
