Tongtian Bamboo Repair

Chapter 168
More than ten miles outside the Qingzhu Gate, this place has just avoided the Qingzhu Gate's sphere of influence.Zhang Miao once again built a bamboo house and began his spiritual life.

He is not from the Qingzhu Sect, so it is naturally not easy for him to stay in the Qingzhu Sect. Although the people from the Qingzhu Sect don't mind, the rules still have to be followed.

Behind the bamboo house, Zhang Miao opened up dozens of acres of spiritual land.He planted the spiritual plant gourd seeds again and also planted some other spiritual plants.

The eldest child is responsible for opening the fields and loosening the soil, the second sister is responsible for sowing the ridges, the third child is responsible for watering and fertilizing, and the fourth child is responsible for setting up restrictions to prevent wild animals from entering the spiritual field.

Zhang Miao, on the other hand, was lying on a recliner, reading volumes of books.

In the secret realm, many golden elixir monks died. In line with the principle of no thieves...and no waste, Zhang Miao accepted their storage bags.Now that the storage bag has been cracked by Si Wa, he has also obtained the collection of these golden elixir monks.

Apart from some named and unnamed spiritual materials and elixirs, what Zhang Miao paid most attention to were various books and classics.

Many of the books collected by the Jindan monks are about alchemy.Like other books, it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of this kind of classics that are not about cultivation techniques.Because these books are all private works. For example, there is a book on alchemy written by the leader of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance himself.

The cure he wrote made him ascend to heaven, so how credible is the book he wrote?To be honest, it is very dangerous to refining this kind of picked-up book. If it is bought by Fangshi, it is somewhat guaranteed, because Fangshi has a dedicated person to judge the credibility of the book. If there are too many mistakes and omissions, Fangshi will Such books will not be sold.

When Zhang Miao opened a formation shop in Qingshui Town, Zehai, he would occasionally receive commissions from the Sangzhe Chamber of Commerce to identify the accuracy of some formations and talisman books.He was a well-known formation master in Qingshui Town, and this kind of peer review is still very credible.

But now, facing these alchemy books that vary in quality from good to bad, Zhang Miao feels a little numb.He doesn’t know how to make alchemy either!I can’t find an alchemist with a certain prestige to learn from.

So why does Zhang Miao want to learn alchemy?
Because Hui has been promoted to the golden elixir stage, he now has the golden elixir. With the golden elixir, he has the elixir fire, and he can refine elixirs and weapons!Hui was not interested in refining elixirs and weapons, but Zhang Miao was.He has already made an agreement with the snake, and he can mobilize the snake's elixir fire to make pills and weapons.

It is difficult to tell the authenticity of alchemy books from fake ones.But the books on weapon refining are easy to distinguish.Why is this?Because fake elixirs can kill people, while fake magic weapons are ineffective at best and will not kill people.

Most of the weapon refining techniques that can be written down have been personally verified by the author and are effective.As for the elixir recipes and alchemy techniques written down by the author, you don't know whether they are effective or not.Because the recipe and refining techniques of the Ying Ying Dan are written in the book, but the person who wrote it has already died from taking the Ying Ying Dan.

The dead will not come back to modify their prescriptions!
Let’s put alchemy aside for now, then pick up the book on weapon refining and read it.In fact, there is not so much emphasis on refining weapons. You can still refine weapons without elixir fire. There is also earth fire, firewood, and charcoal fire.

It’s just that the elixir fire refining tool is better.If it is an earth fire refining tool, then it may take ten days and a half, or even several months and a year just to melt the materials.However, the temperature of the elixir fire is extremely high, and it only takes a short time to refine materials. Moreover, the elixir fire has no impurities, so it has more advantages when refining materials.

Among these Jindan monks' books, there are also some weapons-refining books.Zhang Miao felt itchy while looking at these books and planned to give them a try.

He found a piece of star iron among his many spiritual materials.This kind of iron has spots on its surface that look like stars in the sky, hence the name star iron.Zhang Miao communicated with the snake in his body, and the snake lazily drilled out a snake head from his body, and then spit out his golden elixir.

After doing this, he retracted the snake's head and continued to practice inside Zhang Miao's body.Hui relies on instinct to practice, and sometimes he will find some natural and earthly treasures to eat.This kind of spiritual beast, spiritual insect, fairy, etc., all rely on instinct to practice.

Zhang Miao didn't care about it, but directly manipulated the golden elixir and drew out a small ball of elixir fire.Because the golden elixir is not your own, it is a bit troublesome to operate.

With the Dan Fire, Zhang Miao covered the Star Iron with the Dan Fire and let the Dan Fire refine the Star Iron.

In a short time, the entire piece of star iron was refined into a piece of silver-white metal. The metal changed from the size of a football to the size of a fist. Most of the useless materials were refined, leaving only the most essential part.

"We have the materials, so what can we use these materials to refine?" Zhang Miao rubbed his hands and then looked through the books in front of him.

After looking for a while, he discovered a shield-shaped magic weapon called the 'Glory Sun Shield'.The main material of this shield magic weapon is star iron.After the star iron is refined, patterns similar to runes appear on its surface.They are runes formed naturally from the refined materials, and the abilities of the materials are brought about by these runes.However, if the materials are not refined, the runes cannot be reflected.

After the star iron is refined, it can absorb the light of the sun, moon and stars, and then emit light to blind the eyes of the opponent when used.

In addition to star iron, some aphrodisiac stone and longpyroxene should also be added.Just add it according to the ratio of "I think it will work", and then forge the material into shape.

Ordinary magic weapons do not need to depict formation methods and restrictions.You only need to use the material's own capabilities to make a good magic weapon.Because the material itself is blessed with runes.If formations and restrictions are added, it will be a high-level magic weapon, which requires higher means, because inscribing 'excessive' formations and restrictions will inevitably bring new runes, and if the new runes are not handled well, they will If it easily conflicts with the runes of the material itself, then the magic weapon will fail.

It's like stir-fry. Good ingredients are delicious in themselves. If you cook them according to their nature, you can make a delicious dish.And if you add random seasonings when cooking, it may not be the icing on the cake, but will destroy the deliciousness of the ingredients themselves, making the dish taste like wax and wasting ingredients.

However, if the chef takes action and adds appropriate seasonings to the top ingredients, this will greatly enhance the taste of the ingredients themselves and make the dish more delicious.

Refining weapons is the same as cooking, it all depends on the technique.

When it was his first time to forge a weapon, Zhang Miao didn't want to do all the bells and whistles. He just wanted to forge a qualified magic weapon.

In the end, although the finished product is a bit ugly (because the forging level is too poor), its effect is correct, and a glowing sun shield is ready!

Looking at the somewhat curved shield (?) in his hand, Zhang Miao looked at the materials in his hands, and then he said with a smile: "Since there are still materials, let's keep up our efforts and strive to forge a better one!"

This busy work lasted a whole day.

In the evening, Qingqing came out of Qingzhu Sect. She is now the senior sister of Qingzhu Sect. She has the power of Qingzhu Sect and is usually busy with chores.After finally finishing the groceries, it was already evening.

She quickly cooked two dishes, put them in a food box, and hurried to Zhang Miao.Just like before, she also took care of Zhang Miao's diet.

When she arrived at Zhang Miao's bamboo house, she saw Zhang Miao blacksmithing.Zhang Miao swung the hammer and knocked on the iron felt, and soon he knocked out something that looked like a horseshoe.

Qingqing looked at it and said with a smile: "Brother, you are doing a good job with the horseshoe iron. Do you want to shoe the horse?" Upon hearing this, Zhang Miao's hammer paused slightly, and then he stared at the shield in his hand. He said a little sadly: "This is not a horseshoe, this is a shield..."

"Ah!" Qingqing was stunned, but she immediately said: "Not to mention, this shield is still decent, and it can be done better next time."

Hearing this, Zhang Miao became even more discouraged. He pursed his lips and said, "This is the best piece I've ever made, and there are still some defective ones there."

Qingqing stretched her head and saw several strange-shaped iron pieces. She stuck out her tongue and decided not to discuss this anymore.Then she said with a smile: "Senior brother, you must be hungry too, come and try my craftsmanship."

While eating, Zhang Miao was obviously a little absent-minded.He really couldn't figure out why his forging skills were so poor!Can't even forge a shield well.

If at the Nascent Soul stage, the Nascent Soul cultivator has spiritual consciousness, there is no need to use a hammer for forging, and the spiritual consciousness can be used directly to shape, then it will be foolproof.Unfortunately, Zhang Miao is not a Yuanying monk, so he can only rely on hammers.

After dinner, Qingqing stayed and chatted with Zhang Miao for a while, and when it was almost time, she went back.She also wants to go back to practice...

The next day, Zhang Miao, who had not slept all night, thought of a good idea. Since his beating skills were not good enough, he should replace him with someone else.There is more than one person in his family who can wield a sledgehammer.The eldest child is very good at wielding a sledgehammer.

Thinking of this, Zhang Miao called the big boy who was playing catching bugs in the spiritual field, and then said to him: "Brother will make the weapon later, but the forging and shaping step is a bit difficult, so you can help my brother forge the iron later. "

The eldest child is a simple child, and he never refuses Zhang Miao's words.Then he picked up the hammer and became familiar with its feel.He usually uses a gourd as a hammer. Obviously, the hammer used for making weapons is not like a gourd.

Zhang Miao, on the other hand, took out yesterday's defective products and started refining them again.As long as no formations or restrictions are added, this magic weapon made of pure natural materials can be recycled.

Zhang Miao re-smelted a magic weapon embryo, and then said to Da Wa: "Da Wa, forge this embryo into a shield!"

As soon as the big boy heard this, he immediately raised the hammer and started swinging it. After a clanking sound, a piece of... a piece of iron that looked like a shield was forged.

Zhang Miao looked at the iron piece in his hand speechlessly. He sighed, touched the baby's head and said, "It's not your fault. The baby follows his father. It's my fault. I have bad inheritance..."

Hearing Zhang Miao's words, Da Wa stopped working immediately. He said: "No, my brother's hammer is not easy to use. I can definitely do better with my little gourd." As he said that, he raised his hand. of gourds.

"Is this okay? Don't break your little gourd." Zhang Miao didn't believe what he said. Da Wa is an expert at wielding a hammer to cause damage, but Da Wa is still missing when it comes to wielding a hammer to create art. Bacteria that dot art.

However, Dawa is a serious child, and Zhang Miao couldn't resist his seriousness, so she could only agree to give him another try.

Then, Zhang Miao continued to use the elixir fire to reheat the failed product, and soon, an embryo appeared again.This time, Da Wa did not use the useless hammer, but picked up his own little gourd and smashed it.

Although his little gourd looks like it is made of wood, the hardness of this thing is far beyond imagination, otherwise the big boy would not be able to use it as a hammer.

The gourd hammer hit it, and to Zhang Miao's surprise, a decent-looking shield was actually hammered out by Da Wa!
When the shield was formed, Zhang Miao was stunned by the finished product.Because this thing is not only a standard shield, but also has dense hammer patterns on it. This hammer pattern is like irregular plane armor, which directly strengthens the shield's defense.

At this time, Zhang Miao had to praise Da Wa and said, "You did a pretty good job this time. I underestimated you."

The big boy raised his head and said proudly: "Is this natural? My little gourd is the easiest to use!"

It has to be said that when Da Wa uses the tools he is comfortable with, his level is quite good.

Zhang Miao smiled and touched his head and said, "They say children follow their father. Sure enough, my love for you is not in vain."

With the addition of Da Wa, their small group has gradually become more coordinated.Zhang Miao used elixir fire to smelt the material, and then shaped the big baby into shape.

Soon, Zhang Miao was no longer satisfied with the simple magic weapon, he planned to challenge a difficult one.

He wants to make a vestment!Magic clothes are much more difficult to make than magic shields.The magic shield is essentially a piece of refined star iron.The cassocks are woven into cloth and then cut into garments from the cloth.First of all, weaving into cloth is difficult.

The Radiant Sun Shield is made of metal. To deal with metal materials, just temper it in a fire.But the cloth of the cassock must be made of silk thread.Zhang Miao also has this kind of material. He has the collections of several golden elixir monks and has all kinds of materials.

After choosing, Zhang Miao chose golden silk.This is the silk thread spun out by the spiritual insect Golden Silkworm. Before refining, this thread was as golden as spun gold, even more dazzling than gold thread.But this raw material needs to be refined to reflect the runes.

When refining silk, the elixir fire should not be too strong. It only needs to be burned slowly and carefully to burn away the few impurities in the silk, leaving only the essence.In this step, the monk's control over the elixir fire needs to be tested.

And this also extends to the magic that must be learned in weapon refining and alchemy-fire control.This controlled fire is not an ordinary fire, but an elixir fire.Of course, if you are a Nascent Soul cultivator, you can skip this spell and directly use spiritual consciousness to control fire. This is more efficient and almost error-free.

However, Jindan monks do not have spiritual consciousness, so they still need to practice this spell to help them control the Dan fire.

However, there are many kinds of fire control techniques. It can even be said that each golden elixir monk has his own fire control technique. After all, he is controlling his own elixir fire, which is very customized.Now Zhang Miao can only slowly find a suitable fire control technique from the books of these monks.

　The battle was fierce yesterday, and it has been a blur today
