Chapter 286 The Way of Refining Weapons
There is a gradual process when learning anything. No one can escape this law, and the same is true for Lu Shi.
The only advantage Lu Shi has over others is that he can have more treasures to practice with. To Lu Shi, treasures that are extremely rare to others are no different from scratch paper. Their only function is to allow him to accumulate experience. .
Under this situation, it is quite normal for Lu Shi's weapon refining experience to increase sharply.
More than two months were enough for him to grow from a novice in refining weapons to a veteran in refining weapons. Moreover, this growth rate did not stop due to the increase in the level of the treasures he could refine. On the contrary, it tended to accelerate again.
Investigating the reason, it can only be said that there is a huge difference in the thinking patterns between Lu Shi and the local weapon refiners.
This can also be attributed to the innate advantages of time travellers, who have a broad vision and strong divergent thinking. They never believe in authority. On the contrary, they have a special suspicion of the authority of the weapon refining group.
One more word: Dialectics is the eternal god!
While others were still thinking about how to reduce errors and improve success rates, Lu Shi was thinking about how to use the simplest method to achieve his goals.
what?
Not enough treasures?
Ten pieces and a hundred pieces, is that enough?
what?
The refining technique is not perfect?
Just practice cooking more!
Lu Shi approached the art of weapon refining with the same determination as in his previous life. With so much sleep and food, and the guidance of many famous teachers, it was difficult for him to improve his weapon refining skills quickly.
"It's done!"
Seeing another low-grade spiritual weapon in his hand being successfully refined, Master Lu couldn't help but smile on his face.
The low-grade spiritual weapon in front of him was not a flying sword. Lu Shi had refined too many of them. The quality varied from high to low at the beginning, but now the quality is stable. There are traces of the whole process.
What is being refined now is the medicinal cauldron, also known as the alchemy cauldron. The alchemy cauldron is a low-grade spiritual weapon and its effectiveness is already very good.
Spiritual weapons are inherently spiritual things, and their spirituality is born more than the condensation of heaven and earth's spiritual power in the spiritual object. Lu Shi has experience in intercepting the heaven and earth's spiritual power, so this aspect is not difficult for him.
The medicine cauldron in front of him has no previous model. In other words, this medicine cauldron is Lu Shi's original creation, and the materials used are not very valuable. However, Lu Shi has completely eaten through many treasures and refined this medicine cauldron, which is very useful for alchemy. A little help from the treasure tripod.
The treasure tripod is called Yiyuan Ding, which means the beginning of one yuan. Its function is to condense the physical state to the extreme. When placed in alchemy, this tripod can help the alchemist extract the power of the medicine faster, control the firepower, and condense the power of the medicine.
Let's put it this way, in the world of immortality, all treasures that can be named basically have the templates of predecessors. They are the final version improved from generation to generation. Both the effectiveness and the refining method have been tested by time. of.
The Yiyuan Cauldron refined by Lu Shi was no worse than the same level of cauldron, and even exceeded it in some aspects. Even though the Yiyuan Cauldron is a low-grade spiritual weapon, it can still be regarded as the best among low-grade spiritual weapons. Lu Shi only needs to thoroughly understand certain refining techniques before he can try to refine higher-level artifacts.
Compared with the art of alchemy, the art of refining weapons is equally profound and broad. The refining techniques alone are diverse, such as heating, forging, quenching, grinding, carving, inlaying and other basic techniques.
There are also more advanced fusion methods, condensation methods, peeling methods, vibration methods, and tempering methods...
There are even some aspects in common between the two, and it is precisely because of this that Lu Shi can get started much faster than imagined.
After refining the low-grade spiritual artifact Baoding, Lu Shi did not stop and directly devoted his energy to refining the next artifact.
The next spiritual weapon, Lu Shi, was going to refine a Five Elements Sword. It was a spiritual sword that was refined based on his own five attributes. It was among the middle-grade spiritual weapons, but it was considered the best among the middle-grade spiritual weapons. By.
Lu Shi set a goal for himself, first to refine ten medium-grade spiritual weapons, then to refine ten high-grade spiritual weapons, and finally to refine ten top-grade spiritual weapons.
After accumulating experience in this way and mastering enough weapon-refining skills, you can finally refine the best spiritual weapons at will, and finally you can start your final attempt to use the wisdom fire for weapon-refining.
This process is very boring, and there is nothing to describe. It is basically learning and trying day and night, and the level of hard work is staggering.
Wuliang Mountain has many seniors who have made great achievements in the art of weapon refining. Seeing Lu Shi's move, they were really stimulated. They all did not want to be surpassed by Lu Shi, a latecomer in the art of weapon refining. For a while, Wuliang Mountain worked hard. Research is booming.
By the way, after Lu Shi settled in Wuliang Mountain, although it would increase the pressure on Wuliang Mountain in some aspects, it also brought a lot of benefits to Wuliang Mountain.
Not to mention anything else, the arrival of the land era will naturally be accompanied by a tilt in resources. Many weapon refiners in Wuliang Mountain have a good life. The previous situation of picking at the ropes when refining magic weapons and using treasures is gone. Everyone's net worth All increased significantly because of this.
This is only visible on the surface, there are many more invisible benefits.
For example, if Lu Shi values the art of weapon refining, then the people working below will naturally fall in love with him and recruit more potential disciples to Wuliang Mountain.
Any inheritance is indispensable for its inheritors, and this is the case for these new disciples.
In this way, apart from the Danchi where Lu Shi was born, Wuliang Mountain can be regarded as the most rewarding mountain gate treasure land.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed. Lu Shi's weapon refining skills have steadily improved, and the refining of ten medium-grade spiritual weapons has been completed.
In order to refine these ten middle-grade spiritual weapons, Lu Shi had to refine more than a hundred pieces to ensure a sufficient success rate, and the amount of wasted weapon refining materials was countless.
Of course, even if it was a defective product, nothing was wasted. With Xiaodongtian, Lu Shi would not have to worry about this at all.
In addition, most of the ten high-grade spiritual weapons have been completed. Lu Shi even tried to refine the top-grade spiritual weapons, but the success rate was not high.
But just based on his current weapon refining ability, looking at the entire Yunjian Sect, he can be regarded as the upper reaches. The number of weapons refined by his hands has exceeded 400. This only counts the refined ones, and those that have not been refined. If it is completed, the quantity will be greater.
Time passed, and Lu Shi was fully immersed in it, feeling that time passed very quickly. I even feel that the time it takes to master the art of weapon refining is almost as long as the time it takes me to practice.
But it was this kind of investment that allowed Lu Shi to achieve his current results. His mastery of the art of weapon refining was no worse than those of the veterans of Wuliang Mountain, and was even much better than him in some aspects.
The part beyond this is the ability to innovate.
Don't underestimate this. Among the hundreds of weapon refiners in Wuliang Mountain, very few can do this.
Every weapon refiner who can refine brand new weapons is considered a minority among countless weapon refiners, and Lu Shi is considered an outlier among the outliers.
Just because he would choose to refine those mature magic weapons in order to master the weapon refining, but after he truly learned it, he would immediately use his own ideas to refine brand new weapons. This is something that any weapon refiner who knows about this knows. Lu Shi felt admiration.
As time passed, Lu Shi's weapon refining skills matured rapidly, and now, he is able to skillfully refine top-quality spiritual weapons.
At this point, Lu Shi knew that the time was ripe, and the use of Huo Huo in refining weapons could be put on the agenda.
