Lonely Immortal

This refining of tools and alchemy are still somewhat different. When refining alchemy, Zhang Zhiwen can only refine medicinal materials himself. When refining tools, Zhang Zhiwen can use the stone platform furnace of the Immortal Mansion to refine spiritual gold, but Zhang Zhiwen did not use the stone platform furnace of the Immortal Mansion to refine spiritual gold, because he now plans to refine a magic tool himself.

Previously, the magic tool long sword refined by Liu Suifeng had been given to Zhang Zhiwen. This is a low-level and top-grade magic tool. To achieve the quality of top-grade, two conditions must be met. The first condition is naturally to have true fire, and the second condition is naturally the forging power. The impurities are fully forged out, and then the quality will be improved to this stage. However, the magic tool still has no Taoism at all, because although Liu Suifeng participated in the refining, the forging stage was responsible for Zhang Zhiwen. At that time, Zhang Zhiwen did not have any Taoism of the tool, so this magic tool is only a low-level and top-grade magic tool, and the magic tool with Taoism is a Tao tool, not a magic tool.

This seems to be somewhat similar to alchemy. It is extremely rare for an elixir to have a trace of Taoism. It is a low-probability event. The same is true for magic tools. It is also a low-probability event to have a trace of Taoism. To reach the level of Taoism, it must reach the ninth level of Taoism!

This is Zhang Zhiwen's first time to refine a tool. Naturally, he is going to practice with the magic tool that Liu Suifeng had refined before. He only needs to calcine this magic tool, forge it again, and improve it. This way, it will not be wasted and he can be proficient in the refining technique.

After deciding, Zhang Zhiwen began to refine it. Naturally, he used ancient utensils. He threw the magic sword into the furnace, and then offered the Tao fire, and he began to calcine this magic tool.

As soon as the Dao Fire appeared, the magic weapon reacted immediately. It immediately made a sizzling sound, and a large amount of impurities turned into black smoke and came out. The magic weapon sword also gradually began to turn red. Finally, when there was no more impurity smoke, Zhang Zhiwen took out the magic weapon and then raised the hammer to forge it. This time, because he had the Dao of the weapon, he had a better grasp of the forging temperature. Therefore, after a round of forging, a lot of impurities overflowed from the magic weapon, and the magic weapon sword gradually turned golden!

Obviously, this magic weapon sword has changed from low-grade to top-grade quality, but this magic weapon still has no Dao meaning. At this time, the key step is here. This is also the refining method recorded in the Xuandan Heart Sutra, and it is also very different from other refining methods. That is to carry out secondary calcination!

Zhang Zhiwen threw the magic weapon into the ancient furnace to continue calcining. At this time, the characteristics of the ancient furnace were clearly reflected, that is, it was extremely resistant to burning. Zhang Zhiwen felt that the temperature of the Taoist fire was very high at this time, and he also used the ancient refining method to inject the Taoist meaning into the magic weapon.

At this moment, some strange rune marks slowly emerged on the magic weapon sword. These rune marks seemed to be quite similar to the exclusive elixir refined by Zhang Zhiwen, because the exclusive elixir refined by Zhang Zhiwen would also have these traces of rune marks, but these marks would eventually slowly disappear, and the elixir itself was nurtured in the alchemy furnace, and outsiders could not see it, but the changes in the magic weapon sword were quite clear.

Zhang Zhiwen was not surprised by this, because the ancient method of refining instruments recorded in the Xuandan Heart Sutra was like this, and the Dao of the instrument was slowly injected into the instrument until the long sword had no more changes. Zhang Zhiwen took out the long sword for forging. As the forging continued, Zhang Zhiwen still operated the ancient refining method, so each time he forged, the rune mark of the long sword deepened a point. The rune mark that was originally to be hidden became obviously brighter after forging, and then continued to slowly retreat.

The whole process was not very slow. When Zhang Zhiwen completed the final forging, a brand new instrument was also produced.

This instrument was not the same as the one Liu Suifeng gave to Zhang Zhiwen. Whether it was the length or the sharpness, it was completely not at the same level. The most important thing was that this instrument actually contained a trace of Dao, and it was a trace of Dao of the sword. This was deliberately done by Zhang Zhiwen. This trace of Dao of the sword was only about the power of Dao of the second Dao root!

Zhang Zhiwen picked up the magic sword and injected a trace of mana into it. The sword lit up instantly and then emitted a green sword light. Zhang Zhiwen could clearly feel that this sword was quite different, because ordinary magic weapons basically rely on materials and refining techniques to increase their power, and the power of magic weapons is mainly reflected in the hardness and the effect on the increase of mana, but this sword can actually increase the power of the power of the Dao, because it has two layers of sword Dao, and it is the power of two layers of ancient sword!

This power is naturally amazing. Zhang Zhiwen himself has nine layers of sword intent. If he increases it by two more layers, wouldn’t it reach the eleventh layer?

But Zhang Zhiwen just squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the magic sword carefully, because he didn’t feel too surprised, and he also confirmed what the ancient refining formula was.

This ancient formula has very high requirements for weapon refiners. Dao fire is a must, and the instruments for alchemy seem to have very high requirements. Ordinary instruments will most likely be burned and melted by Dao fire. Then there is the issue of Dao intention, which also has requirements. Zhang Zhiwen only has the second level of Dao intention, so he can only refine magic weapons with the second level of Dao intention. Even if he has the ninth level of sword intention, he cannot inject the ninth level of sword intention. If he injects the ninth level of sword intention, it will be close to Dao weapon.

This weapon is considered by Jindan masters. Many Jindan masters don't even have a weapon. Zhang Zhiwen is also very clear that even if the weapon reaches the ninth level of sword intent, it is still not enough because it lacks the blessing of the power of the soul. The real weapon should have the power of the soul, but that is a matter for the future. At least now this weapon has the second level of sword intent, which can be regarded as a small pseudo-Tao weapon. The power is naturally not comparable to that of a real Taoist weapon, but it should be more than enough to deal with magic weapons. However, the material of this magic sword is very poor, only low-level material, so it can be used to deal with mid-level magic weapons. If it is to deal with high-level magic weapons, it may not work. After all, the upper limit of the material is here, and no matter how powerful it is, it can't withstand the attack of high-level magic weapons.

But Zhang Zhiwen didn't care about this matter, because the best material is ancient spirit gold, right? He turned back to find some ancient spirit gold to refine the top-level magic weapon. Moreover, refining a weapon is different from refining pills. Refining a weapon can be repeated again and again. If Zhang Zhiwen refines a magic weapon, he can use this magic weapon to continuously refine and improve his Taoism in the future.

Therefore, the price of the material for refining is of course very expensive, almost the same as the price of spirit stones. Imagine that this magic weapon is made entirely of spirit stones, and it has to be smelted, calcined, and forged to remove impurities. How much is left in the end? Ancient spirit gold is extracted from a large piece of Tianshui ancient stone to make such a small grain. Imagine that such a small grain of ancient spirit gold is needed to make a three-foot green sword.

However, before refining a magic weapon made of ancient spirit gold, Zhang Zhiwen used this long sword. Anyway, it was okay, at least it could touch the high-level magic weapon. The high-level magic weapon is also only available to Jindan masters. It is difficult for ordinary foundation-building cultivators to get it. After all, the price is too amazing.

Another thing is that one level of Dao Yi can control one weapon. If there are more Dao Yi, then there are more weapons. Even the 9981st level of Dao Yi can control 81 weapons. If Zhang Zhiwen is lucky enough to cultivate the 81st level of Dao Yi, then he will need 81 ancient spiritual swords. These ancient spiritual swords must be made of ancient spiritual gold. Just imagine how much money it would cost?

Zhang Zhiwen dared not even think about it now. He only improved a small level of cultivation, and the sword pill consumed a lot of ancient spiritual gold. These ancient spiritual golds, that is, Tianshui ancient stones, seem to be the long-term assets of Xuandan Sect. The Tianshui ancient stone assets of a top-tier small sect were basically emptied by him. This consumption is unimaginable.

So Zhang Zhiwen didn't even think about this matter now, because it gave him a headache. He just used this magic sword for the time being. Now that he had a clearer grasp of some of the ancient refining techniques, he naturally planned to try to use ordinary refining tools and very poor refining materials to see what kind of magic weapon he could refine.

So he asked Qin Luoyun to purchase some materials and he continued to refine.

This time, the refining tools were very poor. Zhang Zhiwen first used Tao fire to refine the materials and soon obtained the essence of spiritual gold. Then he put the essence of spiritual gold into the furnace and continued to calcine it. However, the furnace could not bear it in an instant and cracked and scrapped on the spot.

Zhang Zhiwen's expectations were similar, so he immediately took the spirit gold essence out of the furnace and used his spiritual consciousness to suspend it in the air, and then continued to calcine it with the Taoist fire, so that he didn't need to use the furnace. However, this method was extremely difficult, because it was difficult for ordinary weapon refiners to concentrate on releasing the true fire while controlling the spirit gold essence to suspend in the air. However, Zhang Zhiwen's spiritual consciousness was quite strong, and it didn't seem to be affected much. Of course, if there was a furnace to calcine, it would naturally be better to put it in the furnace, but now the furnace is gone, there is nothing he can do.

Soon, the spiritual gold essence emitted various impurities of black smoke. Zhang Zhiwen kept calcining it until it finally did not emit any impurities of black smoke. He then put the spiritual gold essence on the anvil to forge it. However, this relatively poor anvil was cracked on the spot by Zhang Zhiwen's forging. Zhang Zhiwen was also quite helpless. What kind of tool is this? The quality is so poor, but there is no way. This is also a situation that Zhang Zhiwen has considered in advance. He can only float the spiritual gold essence again and then forge it again. This time it is quite a test of spiritual consciousness. Fortunately, Zhang Zhiwen's spiritual consciousness is extremely strong. He forcibly fixed the spiritual gold essence in mid-air, and he raised the hammer to forge it, but the hammer was so light that it did not have much power, and it broke after a few forgings!

Zhang Zhiwen looked at the broken hammer in his hand. He knew very well that he could only use his ultimate move. He could only hit it directly with his fist. This ordinary hammer was really not easy to use. So, he raised his fist and punched the spiritual gold essence one by one.

This method is not an ancient refining method. The ancients probably didn't expect that someone would use a pair of fists to forge a magic weapon. Zhang Zhiwen also wanted to give it a try, so he used this rustic method. It turned out to be quite effective. Zhang Zhiwen's body was very strong, and his fists were not inferior to hammers. So under his continuous forging, the essence of the spirit gold gradually began to take shape, and impurities were constantly knocked out.

Gradually, this worst material actually gave Zhang Zhiwen a golden quality, which was the best quality. So Zhang Zhiwen was also quite happy, because he knew very well that he didn't seem to need ancient utensils to refine the weapon. Anyway, he could refine the weapon with his bare hands.

Of course, this is definitely not the end, and we still have to prepare to inject the Dao intention. Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen continued to repeat the above steps, and then the magic weapon was finally refined. The magic weapon sword is still golden, and it also has the double sword intention.
