Fairyland Sunshine

Chapter 156 Wei Haizhi

Refining a magical weapon, or even a flying sword, is not a simple task that can be accomplished in just three to five days.

Xu Heng wanted to refine the sword, and he also had the idea of ​​increasing his strength before going to Haiyan, so naturally he could not delay for a moment.

Therefore, after leaving Baochang Tower, he did not even return to Yuechi Island, but found the direction and fled all the way. He flew for two days and nights. Suddenly, he parted the clouds and looked down, and saw a vast island. It was covered with volcanoes, but there was no thick smoke or flying stars.

It turned out that it was the work of a practitioner who guided the volcanic fire to vent, so that there was no smoke or miasma here, but instead the water and rocks were clear and the scenery was picturesque.

This is the location of the Taoist temple of "Wei Gong". It is said that it was originally a volcanic badland. After three or four hundred years of operation, it has become what we see today, with a country living and working in peace and contentment, and a population of over hundreds of thousands.

This is a real benefit to the local people, so Wei Gong is not only a famous master of instruments in Xingxiu Sea, but also a respected senior expert.

Xu Heng descended from the clouds and landed on a fairy city that was bustling with people. Based on what he knew, he found his way to the foot of a mountain and saw buildings leaning against the mountain, caves located there, pavilions and terraces arranged in an orderly manner, and corridors connected to each other. He thought he had reached the earth, so he sent out a flying letter and threw it into the mountain.

Soon, a young man in a brocade robe, jade belt, and a golden crown appeared. Seeing that it was Xu Heng, he was surprised for a moment, then he warmly greeted him, "Friend Xu, long time no see."

"Fellow Daoist Wei." This person was Wei Haizhi. Xu Heng returned the greeting with a smile, and then he led Xu Heng into the mountains.

After they sat down in a pavilion, Wei Haizhi asked someone to serve them tea and cakes. Then he bowed and asked, "I didn't expect that you would suddenly come to my house after not seeing you for several years. Is there anything you want to see me for?"

The two of them were not very close friends to begin with, so Wei Haizhi naturally knew that Xu Heng's visit was definitely not to visit a friend.

Xu Heng did not pretend to be sincere, and said straight to the point: "I came here to find you to refine a flying sword."

Wei Haizhi was holding up his tea and was a little surprised when he heard this.

He was a person of the weapon sect. When he heard Xu Heng say "refining a sword" instead of "seeking a sword", he understood the meaning of the conversation. After pondering for a moment, he asked, "Fellow Daoist, you want to refine a flying sword. I guess you have a specific idea in mind?"

Xu Heng was well prepared, so without further ado, he took out the note with the details written on it and handed it to the other party to read.

Wei Haizhi glanced at what was written on the paper, his brows furrowed even more, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "Daoyou's request is not low. If it were me alone, it might be a little difficult."

"But I can ask my senior brother to help me, so I should be able to succeed."

"Oh?" This time it was Xu Heng who was surprised. Hearing this, his face became solemn and he said with a cupped hand: "In that case, I hope you can take care of me."

"Hahaha." Wei Haizhi laughed and said, "Daoyou, you are being too polite. Isn't it what a weapon master wants to be able to start refining a superior magic weapon?"

"Besides, it's fine if we know each other, but if I really ask the senior brother to help, his fee will be very high."

"That's easy to say." Xu Heng was about to ask, but Wei Haizhi waved his hand and said, "Don't worry for now. Have you prepared the main materials, auxiliary materials, and purified spiritual medicine?"

Xu Heng smiled slightly, but said, "Not yet."

Wei Haizhi was stunned and asked, "Since you want to refine a flying sword, why don't you have any preparations?"

Xu Heng took out the treasure box leisurely, placed it on the table and opened it, saying, "I am a lay Taoist, and you are the one who is in the know."

"I have already told you my request. Please prepare all the materials and elixirs for me. If you need anything, just let me know." "What?" Wei Haizhi was quite moved. He said with a folded hand, "Since you have such trust in me, I will definitely live up to your trust. Even if I have to ask my teacher for advice, I will help you refine this sword."

However, he acted swiftly and decisively. As Xu Heng returned the greeting, Wei Haizhi stood up and said, "I want to look through some books on weapons and then go to discuss with my senior brother. I hope you will stay for a while. I will give you a reply within three to five days."

Xu Heng had no objection and was about to agree when Wei Haizhi called someone over and asked him to take Xu Heng to his residence, and then he would leave first.

"Wait a minute." Xu Heng stopped Wei Haizhi and said, "Daoyou, you haven't received the fee yet."

Wei Haizhi waved his hand and said, "Brother Daoist, please put it away quickly. How can you collect the fee before you finish the work?"

"I can first withdraw the materials and elixirs needed for sword-making from my master's treasury. If I need to purchase anything from the outside, I only need to sign."

"As for the number of uses, it won't be too late to calculate it after the sword is refined."

Xu Heng couldn't help but be moved, and said sincerely: "In that case, thank you for your help, fellow Taoist."

Wei Haizhi smiled slightly and left the hall in a leisurely manner. Xu Heng followed the guidance of his servants and settled down at the guest residence.

Wei Haizhi said that he would give Xu Heng an answer in three to five days, but this time he left, there was no news from him.

It was not until noon on the eighth day that he arrived at Xu Heng's residence. Although he was a man of great accomplishment, his face showed signs of fatigue, except that he was in good spirits. He said, "All the details are written here, and you will know at a glance."

He handed a book of jade carvings to Xu Heng. Xu Heng unfolded it and took a quick look, and he knew that a lot of effort had been put into it.

The sword embryo that Xu Heng envisioned must be able to possess both Tiangang and Disha restrictions. As for the Disha restriction, Xu Heng would directly use the Fire Dragon Sword Art to refine it. As for the Tiangang restriction, there was nothing special about it.

From what he learned in Tianchi Mountain, he chose an ordinary ritual and refining method, which could make the magic weapon have three characteristics: flexible extension and retraction, changeable hardness and flexibility, and unparalleled sharpness.

Although this matter is simple to say, it is actually quite a test for weapon masters. Wei Haizhi pondered for a long time before he got something. He planned to use the elements of gold and fire to refine the sword blank, and he had listed the techniques and materials in detail.

"Thank you for your concern, fellow Taoist." Xu Heng asked, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Wei Haizhi wanted to shake his head, but after thinking about it, he pointed at the jade carving and said, "Daoyou, please look here."

Xu Heng looked at the place he pointed, and heard Wei Haizhi say: "My master's treasury has all the spiritual medicines for refining flying swords, but the refining materials are different after all."

"Although we have most of these materials available, there are still some scarce items that we are looking for from the outside world. If you have other ways, you can also keep an eye out for them."

Xu Heng listened carefully. The scarce things that Wei Haizhi mentioned actually only had two kinds.

Among the materials listed by Wei Haizhi, three types of metal materials are of top importance, representing the three characteristics of flexible expansion and contraction, flexibility and hardness, and unparalleled sharpness.

Wei Haizhi already had the means to make two of them, and the only thing he lacked was a kind of "extremely sharp" metal. The material required was not large, but the materials that could achieve the desired effect were very rare.

Apart from this, the only thing missing is a precious material with a strong enough "fire property".
