"Don't worry about this. Although Yuan Ming is a newcomer, he has already read the "Basics of Refining Weapons" thoroughly and will have no problem identifying the ores." Chen Wan said.

"I can't worry. Hey, do you recognize these ores?" Wu Ri glanced at Yuan Ming and pointed to the shelf next to him with his chin, where more than a dozen kinds of ores were placed.

Yuan Ming glanced at the shelves and said in turn: "Black iron stone, fire jade, moon watch iron, Kunshan sand..."

Wu Ri was a little contemptuous of Yuan Ming at first, but after listening to it, he finally became a little moved.

What he was refining today was a strange-shaped hidden weapon, and the materials used were very rare. Yuan Ming actually told the names of these ores.

"...As for the last one, it should be the Yin Marrow Crystal." Yuan Ming looked at the last black crystal that was only the size of a fist, paused and said.

"Yes, you actually recognize this object?" The look of surprise on Wu Ri's face became even more serious.

He just got this Yin Marrow Crystal yesterday. It is a very rare side-sect spiritual material. If he hadn't borrowed this mission, he wouldn't have known about it.

"I accidentally saw a record in a spiritual material book." Yuan Ming said.

He did not see this Yin Marrow Crystal in "Herborist Collection" or "Basics of Refining Weapons", but learned from Ming Yue Jue that this object contains rich Yin Qi and is a spiritual material needed in the subsequent practice of Ming Yue Jue.

"Yes, I want this person." Wu Ri turned to Chen Wan with a smile on his face.

"Then I'll leave this person to you." Chen Wan did not stay any longer and turned around to leave.

"Your name is Yuan Ming? Work well with me and I won't treat you badly." Wu Ri looked at Yuan Ming and encouraged him.

"Yes, please take care of me." Yuan Ming said respectfully, maintaining a humble attitude.

"Very good, let's start working. Just follow Lina's instructions on what to do." Wu Ri was very satisfied with Yuan Ming's attitude. He pointed at the tall female sifting disciple and continued to hammer the ingot.

"Sister Lina, please give me your instructions." Yuan Ming walked near the tall female disciple and said.

"You go and break ten black iron stones first." Lina said in a cold tone without raising her eyes.

Yuan Ming raised his eyebrows, wondering when he had offended this woman.

However, he didn't care. He took ten black iron stones from the shelf, picked up a hammer for gravel, and struck them hard.

There was a loud "clang" sound, and the hammer rebounded. His fingers were numb, but the black iron stone only cracked a crack.

Yuan Ming was surprised. Just now, Lina and the round-faced female disciple hammered the ore, and when they hammered it, the ore broke into several pieces. Could it be said that his strength is not as strong as that of a woman?

As he thought about it, he took a deep breath and swung the hammer again, using more force, but the effect was still not good.

"Use mana and pour it into the hammer." A soft voice came, but it was the round-faced girl who reminded softly.

Yuan Ming's eyes moved, and he poured mana into the hammer. A faint light flashed across the bottom of the hammer head, and a strange pale golden pattern appeared, like two cracks intersecting.

"What is this?" He secretly wondered, swinging the hammer and hitting the black iron stone.

There was a loud "clang" sound, and the stone that was extremely hard just now suddenly became fragile and shattered into several pieces.

"Thank you, senior sister, for reminding me." Yuan Ming was overjoyed and thanked the round-faced girl.

Biluo Cave ranks seniority in order of entry. Although this round-faced girl looks younger than him, she still calls her senior sister.

The round-faced girl's cheeks turned red, but she didn't respond and was immersed in her work.

Yuan Ming smiled slightly and continued to turn his gaze to the black iron stone in front of him.

After mastering the key, his efficiency in breaking stones was greatly increased, and he swung the hammer and struck quickly.

Although he could not swing the casting hammer a thousand times continuously, he was still more than capable of swinging the small gravel hammer. He quickly finished processing the basket of materials and handed the gravel to the round-faced female disciple.

"Next is the moon-watching iron." Lina handed over a basket of moon-watching iron.

Yuan Ming raised the hammer and continued working.

With the addition of Yuan Ming, the screening work became more orderly, and Wuri's casting speed also accelerated, and today's task was completed before three quarters noon.

"Very good. If we can continue to maintain this pace in the future, your salary will be increased by 30% at the end of the month!" Wu Ri was very satisfied with today's work progress.

On the way here, Chen Wan mentioned that working in Huofang is not voluntary labor, and Biluodong will give a certain amount of remuneration.

It's just that this reward is paid directly to Wuri and other forging disciples, and the rewards for those who sift materials and light the fire are distributed by the forging disciples on their behalf. This is also the reason why the forging disciples feel superior to others.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Wuri!" The bald young man was the first to say thanks, and the two girls who were sifting through the material echoed.

Yuan Ming also thanked him.

Wu Ri encouraged a few more people, then turned and left the foundry.

Yuan Ming had been hammering ore all morning, and his arms were sore. He was about to finish the final work and then go back to his residence to rest when the voice of a bald young man suddenly came from behind:

"Hey, come here."

"Senior Brother Agula, is there anything else?" He turned around.

After staying in the foundry for a whole morning, he already knew the names of several people. The bald young man was named Agula, and the round-faced female disciple was named Qiqige.

"Your name is Yuan Ming, right? From now on, at the end of each day's work, clean the casting house before going back." Agula pointed to various places in the casting house and gave orders in an arrogant manner.

Yuan Ming looked at Agula and said nothing.

He has been coming to Huofang for some time, and he is not completely ignorant of the situation here. In other foundry houses, the daily cleaning work is done by others except the foundry disciples. Agula clearly asked him to take charge of it on purpose. Make things difficult.

"What, do you have any objections?" Agula stood up and clasped his hands, making a crackling sound of his joints.

Yuan Ming pursed his lips, picked up the broom in the corner of the room, and started sweeping.

"You know what's going on." Agula chuckled, stretched, turned around and walked out.

Lina then left, and Qiqige hesitated for a moment and also left the forging house.

It took Yuan Ming half an hour to clean the house.

He had been knocking ore all morning, which exerted a lot of physical energy. He also worked hard to clean the foundry, which made his back sore from exhaustion.

He asked himself if he really wanted to fight that bald man, the other party might not be able to get any benefits. He was new here and didn't want to cause any trouble, so it was better to keep a low profile.

There was no one in the house at this moment. Yuan Ming closed the door, sat down cross-legged, and started running the Nine Elements Art.

The Nine Yuan Jue has the effect of quickly restoring physical strength. The fatigue accumulated from swinging the hammer quickly disappears, and the strength returns to him.

"This Nine Elements Technique is really mysterious. I wonder what attribute it is? With such a strong recovery ability, it must be the wood attribute or the water attribute." Yuan Ming moved his body and stood up.

Monks are divided into spiritual root attributes, and the same goes for their martial arts. The Nine Yuan Jue does not indicate which attribute it is. His cultivation level is still shallow and he cannot observe it by himself.

However, the attributes of the five elements have their own characteristics. Metal and fire are good at attacking, earth is good at defending, and wood and water are good at recovery. According to the effect of Jiuyuan Jue, 80% of them are attributed to the two attributes of wood and water.

Yuan Ming shook his head, stopped thinking about it, and walked outside.

Just after taking two steps, he suddenly stopped, his eyes flashed with blood, and a strange and fierce aura emerged from his body. However, the evil aura of the hair-clothing technique broke out again, and the blood-colored mist in the sea of ​​​​consciousness rumbled.

Yuan Ming hurriedly sat down cross-legged, took out the mysterious incense burner and held it in his arms, while silently running the Ming Yue Jue.

The heat from the incense burner was continuously transmitted, and coupled with the effect of the Ming Yue Jue, it took a long time to suppress the backlash of evil energy.

Yuan Ming's clothes were soaked with sweat, his face looked tired, and his brows were furrowed.

The poison in his body has been detoxified, and he no longer uses the fur-covering technique recently. The white ape skin is usually kept far away, but the evil spirit still keeps coming back. This is the third time in recent times. It is no better than being drugged by Elder Huhuo. How much less time.

"Is it possible that the scent of Lingxi still remains in my body?" Yuan Ming looked ugly.

At this moment, a sound of footsteps came from outside. Listening to the sound, they were getting closer to here.

Yuan Ming hurriedly put away the incense burner, supported the anvil next to it, and stood up.

There was a loud "clang" sound!

In his haste, he knocked the hammer on the anvil and dropped it to the ground.

"Who!" The door of the foundry house was suddenly pushed open, and a figure rushed in, but it was Chen Wan.

"Senior Sister Chen, what are you doing here?" Yuan Ming had calmed down, picked up the hammer on the ground, and asked.

"Fangge had something to do today. I checked the firehouse for him. I saw that the door of the foundry was closed but unlocked, so I came over to take a look. The firehouse has already finished work. Why haven't you left yet?" Chen Wan asked strangely.

"I stayed to do some cleaning work and practiced for a while." Yuan Ming said half-truthfully.

Chen Wan's eyes fell on the hammer in Yuan Ming's hand and the half-wet clothes, and a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes: "You haven't given up yet, are you still practicing swinging the hammer?"

Yuan Ming's expression was stagnant, but he had no explanation.

"Central Plains people are naturally weak in constitution. It is really disadvantageous to learn the weapon refining method of Southern Xinjiang. If you are really interested in weapon refining, I have an idea." Chen Wan seemed to be moved by Yuan Ming's hard work and said after thinking for a while. .

Yuan Ming was quite dumbfounded. He originally wanted to fool Chen Wan so that the backlash of his fur-clothing skills would not involve the mysterious incense burner, but now that things have happened, he could only continue what Chen Wan said: "Please give me some advice, Senior Sister Chen."

"If you go to Guizang Pavilion to exchange for the "Object Expelling Technique", you may be able to turn things around." Chen Wan said.

"Exorcism? Is it a type of Five Elements spell?" Yuan Ming raised his eyebrows slightly.

"The Expelling Object Technique is not a Five Elements spell. It is a spell that uses mana to control objects. It is also the basis for controlling magic weapons. If you can master it, you can use this technique to assist in swinging the hammer and reduce the burden on the body." Chen Wan said.

When Yuan Ming heard this, he nodded slowly.

He can imagine the effect of the Exorcism Technique, which can indeed assist him in swinging the hammer, but now he just wants to improve his cultivation and refine the Ming Yue Technique to combat the evil spirits in his body. He actually doesn't have much interest in the weapon refining technique. Entering the sect for the first time serves as a temporary place to gain a foothold.

But if given the chance, he would really like to learn the art of repelling objects.

This technique can drive magical weapons. His herring sword is a semi-magical weapon. I wonder if the object-dispelling technique can inspire greater power?
