Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 249 Repairing the Medicine Cauldron
A medicine refining cauldron that can be used by a foundation-building monk is naturally quite impressive.

As soon as Taoist Qingyang took it out, Li Qing confirmed that the grade of this alchemy cauldron was equivalent to a high-grade magic weapon.

Even though the material of this alchemy cauldron seems to be ordinary brass, it is definitely not the case. As soon as Li Qing touched it with his hand, he felt the abundant spirituality contained in it.

Li Qing's mind quickly began to stir, and it didn't take long for him to identify the material of the medicine cauldron.

"Is this a medicinal cauldron made of refined copper? Moreover, the method of quenching spirits is very good. I am afraid that some other means are also used to enhance spirituality."

Listening to Li Qing's voice of amazement, Taoist Qingyang smiled with satisfaction and said: "Hahaha, Taoist friend Erniu's skill in refining is really extraordinary. He can tell the origin of my tripod at a glance."

"That's right. When it was first refined, the secret copper essence was used, and after the spirit quenching, the light-reflecting dust was specially used to enhance the spirituality of the medicine cauldron."

Return to light dust!

As soon as these four words came out, Li Qing was even more amazed in his heart.

If you just listen to the name, it may be a bit ordinary, but if you know its function, it will definitely make many people tempted, especially weapon refiners like Li Qing.

This time, the light dust has only one effect: it can give spiritual materials more spirituality!
The grade of a magic weapon is basically only linked to the spiritual pattern and the spiritual materials used in refining it. The two complement each other and are even indispensable.

And this time the light dust can directly improve the spirituality of the spiritual material, which is equivalent to indirectly improving the quality of the magic weapon!

"Senior Qingyang, this medicine refining cauldron of yours is probably quite impressive even among high-grade magical instruments." Li Qing sighed.

Taoist Qingyang chuckled and said: "When Tianhefang City was destroyed, I was targeted by a foundation-building monk from the Shangqing Sect. If not for this, the medicine cauldron would not have been damaged."

Li Qing was wise enough not to ask what happened to the foundation-building monk. Since Taoist Qingyang could sit here unharmed, it meant a lot.

"Fellow Taoist Erniu, how's it going? Do you think it can be repaired?"

Li Qing, who was standing in front of the brass alchemy cauldron, pondered for a while, nodded and said:
"Senior Qingyang, if you still have the Secret Copper Essence, I can try it."

Having said that, Li Qing is actually quite confident.

Although the quality of the brass alchemy cauldron was extraordinary, the damage was actually not too serious, and it would be easier to re-engrave and renew the damaged fire-controlling spiritual patterns.

To put it bluntly, even if this medicine cauldron is not repaired, it doesn't really matter. It can still be used for fighting and refining medicine, and the impact will not be great.

Especially those fire-controlling spirit patterns. This Qingyang Taoist is a monk in the foundation-building stage, and he can activate the innate true fire. For him, whether the repair is successful or not is irrelevant.

However, Qingyang smiled and took out three pieces of secret copper essence about the size of his fist. He handed them all to Li Qing, and then said: "Then I'll trouble you, little friend!"

Li Qing carefully put away the three pieces of Secret Copper Essence, then cupped his fists and said: "Senior Qingyang, it may take a long time to repair the medicine cauldron, at least a month, this month."

"Hahahaha, don't worry. I don't plan to open a cauldron to refine medicine in the short term. You can just take it and repair it."

With these words, Li Qing felt relieved. He took away the brass alchemy cauldron and planned to rent a small courtyard in the outer area of ​​​​Qinghua Pond for a year.

"280 spiritual stones? So cheap?"

Li Qing was a little surprised. He didn't expect that living in this spiritual place for a year would cost less than 300 spiritual stones.

It can't even be said that it is cheap, but it is a bit too cost-effective.

The Tianhe Sect disciple in charge of renting the courtyard smiled kindly and said: "Fellow Taoist, you are holding the token of my Tianhe Sect disciple, and you are also a disciple of Senior Qingyang, so I have received [-]% less spiritual stones from you!"

It turned out to be the case.

This world of cultivating immortals really pays attention to personal relationships and sophistication. Even renting a courtyard in the land of spiritual veins is so particular.

In the end, Li Qing honestly took out 300 yuan of spirit stones, but the extra 20 yuan of spirit stones went into the pocket of this Tianhe Sect disciple.

The latter smiled tacitly, and then signed the spiritual contract and certificate with Li Qing very neatly. The whole process was surprisingly fast.

"Fellow Taoist, this is your spiritual contract and certificate. Please keep it. You can live here for the next year. If you want to live here for a longer time, you can also rely on this contract to extend it."

Li Qing quickly clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, fellow Taoist!"

After completing the formalities, the disciples of Tianhe Sect left here with satisfaction.

"Stay here for a year. During this year, while cultivating, you can deepen your relationship with Taoist Qingyang. Later, you can also ask him to help you keep an eye on the people who refine the Foundation Establishment Pill."

Li Qing muttered to himself that he was quite wealthy with the spiritual stones he had on hand now, and if he was really short of spiritual stones in the future, he could get some Sky Star Grass and resell it.Renting a courtyard here for a year only costs 300 yuan of spiritual stones, which is just a drop in the bucket for him.

As long as you can find a chance to get the Foundation Establishment Pill, everything is just a cloud.

After living for so many years, Li Qing is definitely not a miser. He deeply understands that the most important thing is to transform the spiritual stones on hand into his own strength.

Money is something external to the body, improvement of strength is fundamental!

After seeing off the Tianhe Sect disciples, Li Qing opened the courtyard door with satisfaction and glanced at his new residence for the next year.

"It's not bad. This place is close to the inner layer, the aura is very rich, and the scenery is beautiful. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers. It would be good to live in seclusion here in a lodge!"

Looking at the green pool not far outside the courtyard gate, a cold mountain breeze happened to come, but it made Li Qing feel very relaxed and happy.

The yard was not small, so Li Qing put the rice pail out and let it find a place to lie down.

After doing all this, Li Qing took a long breath and said to himself: "It's time to repair the medicine cauldron!"

clang!
A brass medicine cauldron with some cracks in the inner layer appeared in the middle of the courtyard. Li Qing took out the brass block and smelted it directly in the medicine cauldron.

boom!
He casually cast a fireball technique, and soon a scorching fire surged up inside the cauldron.

Because it is an ordinary fire, smelting it is quite time-consuming and laborious, and it is destined to take a long time.

There was no Earthly Lung Fire Vein near Qinghua Pond, so Li Qing could only smelt it step by step.

"When you become stronger in the future, you must conquer your own spiritual fire, so that you can refine weapons anytime and anywhere."

"If that doesn't work, you can just catch a few demonic beasts that can spit out demonic fire."

"Smelting spiritual materials with mortal fire like this is still too time-consuming."

While sighing, Li Qing calcined the three pieces of secret copper essence given to him by Taoist Qingyang.

This kind of spiritual material is quite resistant to burning, otherwise it would not be used as the material of the alchemy cauldron. After all, it is to withstand the heat of the innate real fire of the monks in the foundation building period. Heat resistance is the most basic condition.

Li Qing was not worried about burning the alchemy cauldron together. After experiencing the spirit quenching and inscriptions, the alchemy cauldron itself was equivalent to a high-grade magic weapon, very strong and sturdy.

The heat that can melt away the secret copper essence cannot cause any damage to the medicine refining cauldron itself.

In this way, the calcination continued for a full 20 days, which was surprisingly long!
Finally, three fist-sized pieces of secret copper essence were smelted.

Li Qing carefully used it to repair some cracks in the inner layer of the medicine cauldron, and then quenched it to make it fit as closely as possible to the medicine cauldron itself.

"It's a pity. If Senior Qingyang still has the light-reflecting dust, the repair can be even more perfect."

"There are slight differences in the spirituality of the repaired materials. Even if the repair is completed, there will still be certain flaws."

The spirituality that the light-reflecting dust adds to the spiritual material is not even the slightest bit, and it cannot be compensated for by ordinary spirit-quenching methods. No matter how hard Li Qing tries to temper the spirit, there is no way to make the spirituality of the secret copper essence that is later smelted the same as the original. The material of the medicine cauldron is comparable.

Time passed by in a hurry, and inadvertently, another seven days passed.

One early morning, Li Qing slowly connected the last fire-controlling spiritual pattern with his fingertips. At this point, the spiritual pattern in the medicine cauldron was completed!

After the repair was completed, Li Qing looked at the brand new medicine cauldron and couldn't help but move it curiously.

boom!
This brass cauldron, which was originally half a man tall, suddenly became much larger.

As the spiritual patterns flickered, wisps of blazing flames spurted out from the cauldron wall, which was extremely terrifying!
"It's amazing. If I had such a cauldron, I might be able to easily suppress ordinary monks in the Qi Refining Stage."

Just by feeling it, Li Qing could truly understand the power contained in the medicine cauldron.

Such a cauldron can definitely be used for more than just refining medicine. If one accidentally falls into it and activates the blazing flames or even the innate real fire in the cauldron, I am afraid that most monks can easily be refined into ashes.

However, when activated, the mana consumed was quite astonishing, and Li Qing quickly stopped injecting mana.

As the medicine cauldron returned to its original state, Li Qing put it away and immediately sent it to Taoist Qingyang's cave.

"Senior Qingyang, fortunately you have lived up to your destiny!"
