Longevity: Starting from the Talent of Infant Growth

"Twenty-eight pieces of main material ore, plus twenty pieces of auxiliary materials, should be enough to refine five five-element spirit swords!"

Zhou Ling placed the materials in front of him, colorful and shining.

These five-element materials were all carefully selected by him, and they were very particular.

Of course, if it were other cultivators, it might take a lot of time to select so many materials.

But Zhou Ling has [Intermediate Observation], so the speed is very fast.

Lihuo Jingjin, Tiemu, Tuyuan Stone, Shuiwen Crystal Stone and Xuanjin Stone are all second-grade middle-grade.

The grade is neither high nor low. After all, it is not good to be too low, and the spirit sword refined is not powerful enough.

If the grade is too high, the success rate is low, and there is not enough time.

In addition, with Zhou Ling's current sword training method, even if he refines a middle-grade spirit sword, with the help of the spirit sealing ban, he can be very close to the power of the top-grade spirit sword.

What's more, the power of the five-element sword formation is even better than that of the top-grade spirit sword.

All the participants in the assessment this time are Qi-training cultivators, although most of them are talented people in Xuanyuan Daoyuan.

But being able to refine middle-grade spiritual tools, second-grade middle-grade runes, elixirs, etc. is already very good.

There are not many who can reach the second-grade upper grade.

Therefore, Zhou Ling believes that as long as he successfully refines the Five Elements Spirit Sword, he will have a great advantage.

Even as long as he refines three spirit swords, he may be in the top three.

This is also Zhou Ling's minimum requirement.

At least enter the top three and get a ground-grade foundation-building pill and a golden elixir seed quota.

After all, his current status as a foundation-building seed brings him a lot of benefits.

This golden elixir seed status must also be strived for with all his strength.

As for the heaven-grade foundation-building pill, it can only be guaranteed by refining five five-element spirit swords.

Of course, there are many variables in this process.

After all, it takes three days, and this assessment process does not allow taking pills to restore cultivation.

This is undoubtedly an extreme test for cultivation.

Therefore, this also reflects the importance of choosing the assessment jade platform.

Even if the spiritual energy is only a little more lush, the effect of the whole process cannot be ignored.

Of course, in this way, Zhou Ling has two talents, [Restored as before] and [Five Elements Gathering Spirits], which is a considerable advantage.

However, Zhou Ling did not rush to start, but carefully checked the materials with the help of [Intermediate Observation].

Then choose the inscription to match, and after confirming it.

Then he took out a black furnace from the jade table. This is the furnace configured by the Taoist Academy.

The inscription flashed on the surface, which is a second-level upper-grade furnace.

Then, Zhou Ling prepared to absorb the earth fire.

This time, the Taoist Academy prepared a third-level earth fire.

And he has a lot of materials to refine.

Refining materials with the help of earth fire can also reduce consumption.

However, the diverted earth fire on the jade table is roughly only the power of the second-level middle-grade.

If you want to increase the earth fire, you can only use the fire control technique to draw the earth fire over.

Now the fire control technique is not a big problem for Zhou Ling.

He then recited the spell and sent a stream of spiritual power towards the jade platform and the earth fire cave.

Soon, under the control of his spiritual power, a deep red flame condensed on the earth fire cave.

The flame shone brightly and burned fiercely.

Then Zhou Ling pointed his finger and put the flame directly into the furnace.

Start heating the furnace.

"Not bad, this fire control technique is very exquisite!"

Teacher Lin praised on the judges' seat.

Fire control is a basic technique, but different people will have different effects when they perform it.

Some people are more exquisite, and the condensed flame is more pure and consumes less.

This will undoubtedly speed up the refining speed and the quality of the refined materials will be better.

Therefore, for their teachers, a simple fire control technique can actually show a lot of things.

There is no doubt that Zhou Ling's superb fire control technique shows that his skills in refining tools are not low.

"This little guy is still worth looking forward to!"

Dean Zhong also nodded and praised.

Zhou Ling didn't know that his simple fire control technique had attracted the attention of the judges again.

With the blessing of [Meticulous], his fire control technique was indeed extremely condensed.

"Then let's refine the fire attribute spirit sword first!"

Then, Zhou Ling put two pieces of Lihuo Jingjin into the furnace and began to quench it.

"Lihuo Jingjin" is a second-level medium-grade fire attribute spirit gold with extremely high heat resistance.

Even if it is a third-level earth fire, it is estimated that it will take one or two days to completely refine it.

This is also the reason why most disciples can only refine one or two spiritual instruments within three days.

So Zhou Ling condensed the Qianyang True Fire to assist in refining.

[Your beast flame, blue lotus spirit flame, five elements spirit flame, Qianyang True Fire absorbs earth fire, five elements thunder Gang +1, beast flame, blue lotus spirit flame, five elements spirit flame, Qianyang True Fire grade +1, five elements thunder body +1]

As the flames blazed, after an hour, the Lihuo Jingjin began to melt.

After Zhou Ling found that the Lihuo Jin in the furnace began to melt, he began to cast the refining spell to remove the impurities inside.

As he cast the spells one by one, wisps of black smoke could be seen rising from the blazing flames.

It took only one and a half hours to completely refine the Lihuo Jin.

After quenching, the "Lihuo Jin" was a fiery red color, exuding a blazing flame.

Zhou Ling continued to quench other materials.

The efficiency of refining with Qianyang True Fire and Earth Fire is very high, of course, the consumption is not small.

But with the help of [Meticulous] and [Five Elements Thunder Gang], he actually didn't consume much.

Others might last for one or two hours before they had to rest and recover.

But he didn't have much impact yet.

As the materials continued to be put in.

In less than an hour, he had already tempered and fused the materials of the Lihuo Sword and condensed it into a sword.

From refining the materials to tempering it into a sword, it only took more than two hours.

Then he took a short break, and then directly condensed the spirit flame, combined with the divine consciousness, and began to carve the seal.

This time he carved the Fire Gang Sword Seal, which he had refined many times in the swords he refined for the Tiangong Division.

He was familiar with it.

In less than half an hour, the seal and the soul-sealing ban were also carved.

"It's done!"

On the jade platform, Zhou Ling showed a happy expression and his eyes were bright. He felt that his body had consumed about one-third of it.

And it was already noon at this moment.

"This is a successful spiritual sword!"

Dean Zhong had been paying attention to Zhou Ling and found that Zhou Ling had actually refined a spiritual sword at this time.

This efficiency and speed are too scary.

"This speed, this exquisite fire control technique, this inscription technique that is as if assisted by God, this is something that even a third-grade weapon refiner may not be able to do!"

Zhang Daojian was also quite surprised when he saw it, because even he thought that he might not be able to achieve such an effect.

"Hu Daoyou, you really taught a good disciple!"

"The first one was successfully refined, this speed is really amazing, but there are still more than two days before the assessment, there is no need to be so anxious!"

"Perhaps, he wants to strive to refine one more spiritual sword. If he can refine two spiritual swords, there is a high probability that he can become a golden elixir seed."

"But just having quantity, this quality is low, but it won't work!"

"That's right, two low-grade spiritual swords may get less assessment scores than a medium-grade spiritual sword."

"And with such consumption, the subsequent refining will definitely be greatly discounted, and the gain will not outweigh the loss."

The instructors on the jury discussed it separately.

This assessment took a long time, and they also carefully observed those disciples who had the hope of becoming golden elixir seeds.

Zhou Ling also attracted much attention because of his uniqueness.

He was also surprised that he could refine a spiritual sword so quickly.

······.

[You are absorbing spiritual energy, spiritual energy affinity +1, five elements spiritual power +4]

[You are running the five elements Qianyang true art, recovery +1, five elements spiritual power +2]

[You are absorbing fire crystal, five elements thunder +1, fire attribute +3]

On the assessment jade platform, Zhou Ling exhaled. In less than half an hour of recovery, his spiritual power and consciousness were restored to 90%.

As for the remaining materials after refining, he absorbed them directly.

This is also the reason why he collected so many materials.

It is also of great help to the recovery of cultivation.

Then he took out the iron wood, condensed the five elements spiritual flame, and began to quench it.

Iron wood is not like refined gold ore. If it is quenched with earth fire, a slight mistake will cause irreversible damage.

So it is safer to use the five elements spiritual flame.

······.

As the night gradually fell, a ball of light appeared in the square, illuminating the entire square like daylight.

The disciples watching in the square did not leave.

They watched carefully as the disciples being tested refined weapons, made pills, drew runes, etc.

This is definitely a rare learning opportunity.

"Aunt Ru, Uncle Shan, you should go back first. I will inform you as soon as there is any situation here!"

Sun Dajie brought a food box to Li Ru and the others, and said with a smile after eating.

"Then I'll trouble you."

Zhou Shan nodded and replied.

"But Ling'er refined it so fast, why do I feel uneasy in my heart!"

Li Ru said with some concern.

Although her son was the first to refine a treasure, the speed was too fast.

It was so fast that she felt a little unreal.

"Aunt Ru, don't worry, Brother Ling will definitely win!"

Wang Xin also said with a smile.

"Yes, Brother Ling was the first to refine a spiritual sword, so he must be the first!"

Sun Dajie said with confidence.

"Ling'er's cultivation is far better than ours now. He knows what to do. We don't have to worry!"

"Just go back and wait for news. If you are worried, we can come again tomorrow!"

Zhou Shan also smiled at Li Ru.

Li Ru nodded.

Originally, her biggest expectation for her son was to be able to build a foundation.

But now, although her son has not yet built a foundation, his achievements have already exceeded her expectations.

Of course, she also wants her son to go further and have the opportunity to achieve a golden elixir in the future.

"Look, Brother Ling has successfully refined the second spiritual sword!"

"This speed is too terrifying!"

At this time, Sun Dajie also shouted excitedly.

Hearing this, Li Ru and the others also looked at the competition stage together, and they saw Zhou Ling placing a wooden sword shining with green light.

A calm and relaxed look.

"Two spiritual swords have been refined, Brother Shan, am I seeing it right?"

Li Ru's tone was excited, but she still didn't believe it.

It felt like her son's refining of spiritual swords was easier than her brewing wine.

You know, that is a spiritual sword.

In Lingxia Fairy City, this is an extremely rare treasure.

Now in his son's hands, it is as common as a meal.

"This!" Zhou Shan was also shocked and speechless.

He only knew that his son was making rapid progress, but he didn't expect it to be so amazing.

He originally thought that his son would rest and recover today after refining a spiritual sword.

After all, this refining process must be extremely exhausting.

The second refining would definitely be more difficult.

But he never expected that his son's second spiritual sword would be faster than the first one.

Of course, it's no wonder they were shocked.

Among the disciples who are now being tested on the field, let alone other things.

Many of the weapon refiners are still refining materials.

This comparison naturally shocked them.

Of course, they were not the only ones shocked.

"Too terrifying! How did he do this?"

"I didn't see it wrong!"

"As expected of the leader of the foundation-building seeds, the first among this year's freshmen, he actually refined two spiritual swords in less than six hours!"

"This speed is something that even the foundation-building disciples in the inner courtyard can't do!"

······.

The other disciples watching around were also talking in shock.

With such high efficiency and high success rate, his imprinting proficiency, spiritual power, and spiritual consciousness cultivation are definitely at the level of foundation building.

But Zhou Ling is only a freshman in the Taoist Academy this year.

Of course, as this month comes to an end, he is also considered an old student.

"How did this kid do it?"

"He can refine two spiritual swords in one day with his Qi training!"

In the judges' seats, Instructor Lin and others also exclaimed slightly.

Even though they are knowledgeable, they can't help but be shocked by Zhou Ling's performance.

It's really amazing!

Refining two spiritual swords in less than a day, so terrifying!

"Is this kid going to refine the five-element spiritual sword?"

Dean Zhong seemed to see Zhou Ling's thoughts and couldn't help but show surprise.

If he said this at the beginning, many people might sneer.

They thought Zhou Ling was whimsical and overestimating his own abilities.

But now everyone has seen that Zhou Ling refined two spiritual swords in less than six hours.

There are still two days left, and it doesn't seem difficult to refine three more spiritual swords.

"Master Hu, your disciple is not good at refining weapons, right?"

At this time, Master Lin asked Master Hu with some doubts.

Master Hu shook his head. Zhou Ling's performance today also caught him off guard.

In just a few months, Zhou Ling's progress can be described as rapid.

It is no longer difficult for him to refine a mid-grade spiritual sword.

And he is only at the peak of Qi training now.

Of course, he is also very happy about Zhou Ling's performance.

Zhou Ling naturally didn't know that he had attracted so many people's attention again.

He was carefully observing the iron wood sword that had just been refined. The flashing green sword body reflected his face.

"Let's stop here today!"

"Take a break first, and continue tomorrow!"

I feel that the spiritual energy and soul in my body have been consumed a lot.

And there is enough time.

Zhou Ling immediately held the other remaining iron wood in his hand, sat cross-legged, and practiced the skills to recover.

[You are absorbing spiritual energy, spiritual energy affinity +1, five elements spiritual power +4]

[You are practicing the five elements Qianyang Zhen Jue, recovery +1, five elements spiritual power +2]

[You are absorbing iron wood, five elements thunder +1, wood attribute +3]
