Chapter 651: Refining Weapons
Chapter 651 – Weapon Refining
Five days later, Jinshan City’s workshop market.
Shen Miaoling, who was holding a bamboo pole in her hand, was particularly eye-catching in a crowd of cultivators, and even Xu Chuniang, who was traveling with her, also ushered in a lot of attention.
Only these people, after realizing that they couldn’t see through Xu Chuniang’s cultivation, quickly withdrew their gazes again.
Feeling the clamor of people around her, Shen Miaoling was a bit surprised and whispered, “So there are actually so many cultivators in the world.”
“Cultivation requires aura, the mundane world has a thin aura, so naturally there aren’t many cultivators.”
Speaking of this, Xu Chuniang suddenly thought that this little disciple of hers was a five spirit root, but her cultivation speed was not slow.
Perhaps, this was related to the purity of her spiritual root.
It just so happened that she was in the marketplace right now, so she could go buy a Spirit Measuring Bead and test it.
Xu Chuniang’s mind moved and led Shen Miaoling into a spirit material store.
The store’s fellow warmly greeted, “Two fairies, what do you want to buy?”
“I want a Spirit Measuring Bead, of better quality.”
A difficult look appeared on the fellow’s face, “I’m really sorry, the Spirit Measuring Bead in the store is just sold out, the next batch will not arrive until three days later.
However, the store has a third-grade Spirit Detecting Bead that has an extremely high accuracy rate and can be used once for only ten spirit stones.”
For Qi Practicing Stage cultivators, spending ten Spirit Stones to be able to measure Spirit Root Attributes and Purity wasn’t that expensive.
Shen Miaoling didn’t know if ten spirit stones were much or little, and was afraid of making her master break the bank, so she shook her head.
“Why don’t we just not measure it, it won’t affect cultivation anyway.”
Xu Chuniang couldn’t help but guffaw, with her wealth, she naturally wouldn’t put this amount of spirit stones in her eyes.
“It’s better to take the test, knowing the purity of the spirit root, you can be more certain of your cultivation techniques in the future.”
The store assistant accepted the spirit stones and fetched the spirit measuring bead, causing Shen Miaoling to gently place her hand on the bead.
“Fairy relax, feel the spiritual qi wholeheartedly, it will soon become better.”
Shen Miaoling complied and placed her hand on the Spirit Measuring Bead, and it wasn’t long before she heard a voice of regret.
“Surprisingly, it’s the most refuted five spirit roots, too bad! Hehe …… is not right, how could the spirit root purity be like this?”
The fellow had a puzzled look on his face, he didn’t know how many people he had helped to measure spiritual roots, but this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
Say her spirit root is good, but it is a five spirit root.
If you say that her spiritual root is poor, the purity of her spiritual root is not low, and the purity of each attribute of her spiritual root is more than eighty.
Xu Chuniang swept a glance at the Spirit Measuring Bead, and could tell at a glance that the purity of the Fire Spiritual Root was the highest, with a purity of ninety.
The purity of the Gold Spirit Root was the lowest, with a purity of eighty-two.
The purity of the remaining three Spirit Roots was somewhere in between.
Shen Miaoling’s fast cultivation speed was more related to the high purity of her spirit root, in addition to the fact that she had been taking spirit rice since she had induced qi into her body.
The store fellow only said half of his words, making Shen Miaoling a little apprehensive.
“Master, is my spirit root bad?”
“No, although you are a five spirit root, your spirit root purity is relatively high, and overall it is not bad.
Moreover, with a five spirit root, you have a unique advantage in practicing arts, don’t be presumptuous just because you are a five spirit root.”
Shen Miaoling sighed in relief and nodded vigorously, “Master, I understand.”
Xu Chuniang led Shen Miaoling out of the store, strolled around the marketplace, added some materials and then entered an inn.
“There’s a refining workshop across the street, I’m going to refine magic weapons there for a month or two, or ten days and half a month. During this period, you can first cultivate in the inn for a period of time, and I will come to find you after I finish refining the artifacts.”
Shen Miaoling nodded obediently and accepted the packet of spirit stones handed over by her master, but in her heart, she was thinking, could Master be a Weapon Refiner?
After settling Shen Miaoling, Xu Chuniang stepped into the Weapon Refining Workshop and asked for the best refining room.
This time, what she was going to refine was a proper magic weapon, which required the use of a number of special artifacts for refining.
Renting a refining room would not only reduce time, but also increase the success rate.
After walking into the refining room and familiarizing herself with the special artifacts for refining, Xu Chuniang took out the newly purchased Falling Thunder Bamboo and began to refine it.
Borrowing the earth’s fire, she began to forge and purify the Thunderfall Bamboo.
The grade of the Falling Thunder Bamboo was Grade 3, so the Meteorite Heart Flame would be useless once burned, so it could only be purified with ground fire.
After forging and purifying, Xu Chuniang poured spiritual qi into the Falling Thunder Bamboo, and was about to quench it, when she heard a “click”, the Falling Thunder Bamboo actually cracked.
Looking at the cracked Thunderfall Bamboo in front of her, Xu Chuniang realized that when she used the ground dragon to forge and burn it, the fire had gone too far, causing the Thunderfall Bamboo to be too brittle and unable to withstand too much spiritual qi.
Throwing the ruined Thunderfall Bamboo into the furnace, Xu Chunniang took out a new Thunderfall Bamboo and began the second refining.
With the experience of the first failure, she was extra careful during the second calcination, and when she quenched it with her spiritual qi, she finally succeeded.
Next, there was only the final step left, which was also what he was best at, carving formations.
Xu Chuniang smiled faintly, and her divine sense probed into the interior of the Falling Thunder Bamboo to carve the formation.
After inscribing twenty-seven formations, the Thunderfall Bamboo transformed into a stick-shaped artifact.
Looking at the light in front of her eyes, Xu Chunniang thought for a moment and waved her hand towards it to put in several seals.
The spirit on the Thunderfall Bamboo converged at a speed visible to the naked eye, becoming plain and ordinary, looking like an ordinary Grade 1 Spiritual Artifact.
Xu Chuniang picked up the Falling Thunder Bamboo and weighed it before leaving the refining room with a satisfied smile.
The proprietor of the Artifact Refining Workshop heard that the cultivator who had rented the Heavenly Ranked Artifact Refining Room had come out, and even made a special effort to personally come out to receive him.
“To be able to use the Heavenly Numbered Refining Room to refine weapons, I think that you must be at least a third level refiner.”
Xu Chuniang shook her head, “Weapon practicing is not my specialty, I’m just trying it out.”
The proprietor smiled faintly, “Fellow Daoist is too modest, if you have any extra magic weapons or spirit weapons in your hands, you can sell them to us at an absolutely fair price.
In the future, if you rent a refining room, you can also get a lot of discounts.”
Xu Chuniang knew in her heart that this person in front of her was treating her as a refiner.
It was a pity that she had refined weapons only a handful of times, so she was afraid that she would have to disappoint him.
After leaving the refining room, Xu Chuniang walked towards the inn across the street, only to see that in the inn, an old man and a young man were sitting across from Shen Miaoling, and were constantly persuading each other.
“Little Taoist friend, I see that you have not bad qualifications, why don’t you join our Jinshan Sect, our Jinshan Sect is a far-famed great sect, compared to the Easy Sect, Ten Thousand Swords Sect and Immeasurable Mountain, it’s not even close.”
“After coming to the Golden Light Sect, you will be my direct senior sister, follow your master’s cultivation, and Foundation Establishment is just around the corner.”
In the face of the two men’s rounds of persuasion, Shen Miaoling was unmoved and even a little impatient.
“You guys have persuaded me for so many days, haven’t you died yet? I’ve said it before, I have a master, I won’t go to your Gold Mountain Sect.”
The old man stroked his beard and said smilingly.
“Our Golden Mountain Sect is so imposing that disciples in the sect can have a mountain to themselves regardless of their cultivation level, it doesn’t matter if you worship a master, you can ask your master to join the Golden Mountain Sect with you.”
“Our Golden Mountain Sect has a lot of spiritual qi, it’s also a far-famed sword cultivation sect, keep you won’t regret going there!”
