Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Vol 3 Chapter 68: : between gain and loss

Creating a magic weapon by yourself is undoubtedly a very expensive work.

In the inheritance of the fourth-order artifact refiner that Zhou Minghan obtained, there happened to be a summary of the artifact refiner's experience on the self-created magic tool, which is why he suggested Zhou Yang to try his own magic tool.

According to the above records of the artifact refining heritage, if the artifact refiner wants to create his own magic weapon, it is best to choose a common sword-like magic weapon to try, because the refining materials of such magic tools usually do not require too much, and the fault tolerance rate is above. , and it is not comparable to small instruments such as flying needles and daggers.

Even so, the spirit stones that should be burned still have to be burned. A craft refiner with an average net worth really can't afford to play this money-burning game.

Zhou Yang dared to use this method to practice because he had mines at home.

In order to create his own magic weapon, he directly intercepted 30% of the production of red flame iron ore veins and concentrated iron ore veins, and used it to refine the first-order high-grade magic weapon "Flaming Sword".

With his current cultivation and artifact refining, it takes no more than two quarters of an hour to refine a first-order magic weapon, and the success rate is also 100%.

But that means refining the magic weapon that already has a map of the refining tool. If you have to create your own magic weapon, of course you can't do this.

Therefore, he took the initiative to extend the time for refining a magic weapon to an hour, and in order to improve the success rate, he did not hesitate to use "Danyang True Fire" to quench the impurities in the raw materials.

The "flaming sword" he expected had to have a magic ban "flame". This magic ban consists of six rune nodes and twelve spiritual patterns connecting the rune nodes. These runes and spirit patterns must be It is integrated into the sword embryo completely and coherently, forming a perfect cycle.

The original structure and shape of the first-order magic weapon "Flaming Knife" was the most suitable shape for the "Flame" method.

Now, Zhou Yang, without changing the overall shape of the sword embryo, has to revise the original arrangement of the "flame" law by trial and error, and finally revise a "flame" law that is suitable for sword-like instruments.

This is undoubtedly extremely difficult. The arrangement of the "Flame" method forbidden in the "Flaming Knife" is the best choice that the senior refiners have found after countless attempts, and it is already very stable and mature.

He is now going to change the arrangement of the "Forbidden Laws". Even a slight change in the position of a rune node or the curvature of the spiritual pattern may cause the Forbidden Law to fail, thereby destroying the embryo of the magic weapon.

And every time he failed, Zhou Yang would use his spiritual sense to record where his failure was in the blank jade slip, and then try out new combinations by comparing the results recorded every day.

Every time at this time, Zhou Yang would miss the mobile phone and computer in his previous life. Although jade slips can also record a lot of knowledge information, compared with computers and mobile phones, both the storage capacity and the convenience of recording are not on the same level.

Why do immortal cultivators have to be above the foundation stage to record knowledge information on jade slips?

The reason is because only the spiritual consciousness of the cultivators in the foundation-building period can be preserved for a long time without dispersing quickly.

From spring to autumn, winter to the summer solstice, in a blink of an eye, the blank jade slips that Zhou Yang used to record information have filled a three-tiered cabinet, and the number of jade slips up and down has exceeded 800!

800 jade slips represent 800 first-order instruments, and if one calculates the market price of ten low-grade spirit stones for a first-order instrument on the market, it is 8,000 lower-grade spirit stones!

After burning eight thousand low-grade spirit stones in two years, Zhou Yang's family owned mines, and he couldn't take it anymore, so he had to stop this money-burning game.

As the patriarch, of course he has the right to use the family resources to cultivate, but the patriarch can't waste family resources like this!

Therefore, the spiritual stones he burns now are actually going to be taken away from the family finances.

According to the red flame iron material worth three spirit stones, which is required to refine a magic weapon, his more than 800 jade slips are more than 2,500 low-grade spirit stones, and the production and purchase costs of blank jade slips are counted. , he at least owes the family a debt of three thousand low-grade spirit stones.

He doesn't need to return this spiritual stone now, but it will be deducted from his family offerings in the future.

And the contribution points he owes to the family now have reached more than 20,000 points because of the purchase of the Foundation Establishment Pill and a few third-order magic tools taken from the family treasure house. Technique", the result after deducting 10,000 contribution points.

According to his contribution of 300 contribution points a year, it will take at least seventy or eighty years to repay this debt.

This is also because he is a foundation-building cultivator and the patriarch of the family to do this. Otherwise, if he were an ordinary family cultivator, Zhou Xuanlin, who was in charge of managing the family's finances, would have come to collect the debt himself.

What made Zhou Yang depressed and heartbroken the most was that he burned so many spirit stones for experiments, but he achieved very few results, and he did not succeed once.

I still can't see any hope of advancing to a Tier 3 Item Refiner.

The only thing that comforts him is that although his own career has not been smooth, the family's business has been thriving and smooth in the past few years.

More than five years have passed since he established the foundation and returned to the family to take over as the patriarch.

In the past five years, the family branch on the Baisha River oasis has officially established a firm foothold, and through the "Fengyuelou", the family has provided six newborns with spiritual roots, including a mid-grade Linggen baby girl.

In addition, after five years of preparation, the Chen family has rebuilt a cultivator's square on a third-order middle-grade spiritual vein on the White Camel Mountain, and named it "Ping'anfang City". It is said that the Chen family's number one The foundation-building cultivator, Li Pingan, plans to sit in it all year round in the future.

According to the Chen family's promise, the Zhou family obtained two stores for free in the newly-built "Ping'anfang City", and re-hanged the signs of "Yuquan Building" and "Zuixian Building". Zhou Yang's father Zhou Xuanhao also Officially stationed in Fangshi and became one of the monks stationed in Fangshi.

On the family side, Zhou Xuantai, the current chief elder of the Zhou family, was successfully promoted to become a second-order low-rank array mage, and the seventeenth uncle Zhou Xuanzhao also successfully promoted to a second-order animal trainer by domesticating the hatched "flame-devouring spider". Two aspects enhance the family heritage.

The other eleventh uncle, Zhou Xuankun, also broke through to the ninth level of Qi training and became the fifth elder of the Zhou family. Among the rest of the "Xuan" and "Yuan" cultivators, there are also many people who have made breakthroughs in their cultivation.

In addition, the number of newborns in the family has surged in the past five years. There have been as many as 12 newborns with spiritual root qualifications, including one high-grade spiritual root and two middle-grade spiritual roots.

In this way, after removing the five "Yuan" generation babies born from the "Xuan" generation, the number of "Guang" monks in the next generation of the Zhou family has reached as many as fifteen.

Because there were too many babies born at the same time, Zhou Yang had to ask the old patriarch Zhou Minghan to set up a monk school on Yuquan Peak, and let all children aged five years enter the school to learn the knowledge of immortality, and he also took the time to teach them. several classes.

On this day, while Zhou Yang was cultivating in his bedroom, he suddenly received a Feijian biography from the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, asking him to go to Yuquan Peak to discuss an urgent matter.

After he received the letter, he did not dare to neglect, he immediately found his mother Lin Yuting and eight aunt Zhou Xuanyan to explain the situation, and then released the flying sword and flew to the oasis of Yuquan Lake.

As soon as he rushed back to Yuquan Peak, he was immediately called into the cave by the old patriarch to discuss matters.

"Today, Chen Pingzhi suddenly sent me a Feijian with a third-tier high-grade Feijian from 4,000 miles away, and asked you to go to the Baishahe Oasis to help him do something. He didn't say anything in the letter, what do you think?"

In the cave mansion on the top of the mountain, Zhou Minghan took out a small golden sword more than two feet long and handed it to him while talking about the purpose of calling Zhou Yang over in a hurry.

This golden sword is made by using the third-order spiritual object "Red Profound Fine Gold". The third-order top-grade communication flying sword is used to communicate to the family at critical moments.

Although the value of this flying sword used for communication is not as high as that of the flying sword used in the step-fighting method, it is at least worth thousands of spirit stones. One can see the whole leopard at a glance. This shows how deep the background of the Zifu family like the Chen family is.

You must know that even a sect like Huangshamen can't achieve a third-order high-grade communication flying sword for the base-building cultivator.

Zhou Yang played with the flying sword in his hand, thought for a while, then looked at the old patriarch and asked, "What do you think, great-grandfather? Based on your experience, Chen Pingzhi asked me to help him at this time, what would it be? matter?"

Zhou Minghan obviously thought about this question, and when he heard his question, he immediately replied: "According to the news I have learned over the years, Old Ancestor Chen not only did not give up searching for the whereabouts of the sand bandits who attacked the oasis, but instead Many times, the Chen family cultivators and hired loose cultivators were dispatched to the surrounding sand sea to find the traces of the sand bandits, so they even discovered several new small oasis and spiritual veins.

"According to the old man's estimation, Chen Pingzhi should have learned about the location of a senior monk's cave, or the news of a rare spiritual object from a lucky loose cultivator."

"He didn't want to share this benefit with the Chen family, so he asked you, an outsider who owes him favors, to accompany him on the adventure."

This explanation is reasonable and reasonable. Zhou Yang also knows that in a big family like the Chen family that has been passed down for seven or eight hundred years, it is inevitable that some dirty things will happen.

As Chen Ping'an's half-brother, Chen Pingzhi will definitely be crowded out by some other Chen family's foundation-building cultivators when his elder brother Chen Ping'an occupies a lot of family resources. chance.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but follow the words of the old patriarch and said to himself: "He didn't want to share his chance with the Chen family, but he didn't call his brother Chen Ping'an. It seems that this chance is not too big, so If so, the danger should not exceed the foundation level."

"It should be like this." Zhou Minghan nodded, agreeing with his speculation.

"Since that's the case, my great-grandfather will send him a letter from Feijian, saying that I agreed, and I will rush to the Baishahe Oasis to meet him later." Zhou Yang pondered for a while, and quickly made a choice.

To make this choice, firstly, he wanted to replace Chen Pingzhi's favor. Second, he had not seen him for a few years. He also wanted to take the opportunity to visit his father at the Baishahe Oasis, and take his mother there to reunite with his father. Thirdly, he wanted to grow a bit. Get to know and experience the life of a team of cultivators on an expedition.

After he made a choice, he handed the flying sword of communication in his hand to the old patriarch, and then watched the old patriarch inject a lot of mana into the flying sword, which inspired the flying sword to turn into a golden light and travel through the air towards the Baisha River oasis.
