Chapter 282 A grand return home
The red flame cauldron flashes with red light.
Lin Mu's consciousness was immersed in the red flame cauldron, and he was observing the changes in the high-level materials in the cauldron.
Under the roasting of the four-leaf fire lotus, the materials in the cauldron began to slowly melt.
A smile appeared on Lin Mu's face, and he immediately increased his spiritual power input, and the flames at the bottom of the cauldron became more intense.
This was Lin Mu's first time refining a high-grade magic weapon, but he still didn't expect that refining a high-grade magic weapon would be so difficult.
Easier said than done.
Everything is not as simple as talking, nor is it as simple as looking.
Lin Mu had previously watched Elder Luo Yan refining the top-grade cloud-walking boots and blue sand shield. Elder Luo Yan's relaxed and carefree appearance left a deep impression on him. That kind of ease and ease made him mistakenly believe that as long as he studied hard, Fan, it is not difficult to refine a high-grade magic weapon.
After all, Elder Luo Yan's refining of top-grade magic weapons was always successful in the first try. He is only refining high-grade magic weapons now, and it does not require a number of times, as long as he can succeed.
But until now when he was refining it himself, Lin Mufang felt a sense of powerlessness.
He worked hard to refine it for two hours, and the materials in the Red Flame Cauldron had just melted.
It is so difficult to melt high-level materials. If you want to successfully refine a high-level magic weapon, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky.
You must know that melting materials is the foundation of foundations. It is not even the first step of forming. At best, it is just the preliminary preparation work for forming. But such a preparation work required Lin Mu to exhaust a lot of spiritual power before he could complete it.
If his cultivation hadn't reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage and his spiritual power had greatly increased, it would have been difficult to complete even this preparation.
Weapon refiners and alchemists are the same. Although they are both extremely profitable, it is difficult for them to achieve great success.
Alchemy, like weapon refining, is easy to learn but difficult to master. As long as you have patience and practice hard in the early stage, you can achieve certain results. But if you really want to become a high-level alchemist or high-level weapon refiner, you have to pay more than just hard work. Your understanding, famous teachers, and resources are all extremely important. Of course, hard work has become even more important than before.
Nowadays, Lin Mu has no shortage of resources. What he has learned is derived from Tianzhu Zhenren's "General Guide to Refining Weapons". There is no need to worry about famous teachers. Although his understanding cannot be said to be tacit, he can cultivate to this point with his five elements spiritual root qualifications. His understanding Not much worse. What Lin Mu lacks now is actually practice.
Practicing only requires hard work, and refining weapons does not even consume too many resources. In this space of the rotating moon, and with double the time, Lin Mu's advantages are far beyond those of ordinary cultivators. Even so, it is so difficult for him to learn, and it is naturally more difficult for others.
This is also the reason why there are so few weapon refiners.
Sword cultivation is popular in Tianxiao Realm, and the number of other cultivators is not considered mainstream. But it is precisely because of this that alchemists, weapon refiners, formation masters, talisman makers, etc. are more popular and extremely sought after.
The four-leaf fire lotus burns quietly, as pure as snow, and the red flame cauldron flashes red light and emits bursts of heat.
Several high-level materials in the furnace have melted into liquid.
With a delicate expression on his face, Lin Mu made a secret with one hand, stretched out his finger, and the red flame cauldron opened automatically. A ball of crimson liquid flew out of the cauldron. The red light of the liquid shone like a ball of flame, scorching the eyes.
Chi!
As soon as the red liquid flew out, a faint white mist appeared around it.
Lin Mu looked serious and began to make secrets with both hands. He fired dozens of secrets in succession, and the red liquid in the air began to change.
The crimson liquid instantly turned from a ball into a long red strip, and then under the constant modification of Lin Mu's magic skills, the appearance of a flying sword gradually appeared, a crimson flying sword!
The crimson flying sword has smooth lines and its body is engraved with simple patterns, making it look extremely gorgeous.
The first step took shape, and Lin Mu was now able to master it with ease.
After completing this first step, Lin Mu did not relax at all. The next step of carving the formation is the real test. This is the most important step in refining a magic weapon. As long as the formation can be carved successfully, the third step of tempering is not difficult. A flying sword is almost considered a success.
However, Lin Mu is not good at carving formations.
Before refining this red flame sword, Lin Mu spent three months studying the third-grade formation.
In three months, Lin Mu had only learned more than twenty third-grade formations.
The difficulty of the third-grade formation is several times or even ten times more difficult than that of the second-grade formation. Even with Lin Mu's current spiritual awareness, learning it is extremely difficult. Each formation has dozens or hundreds of deductions, and each deduction is a change. If all these changes can be realized, a flying sword will be enough to achieve both attack and defense, and be proficient in everything.
"Red Flame Formation" is one of the third-level formations that Lin Mu has learned.
After Lin Mu found the Red Flame Sword Illustrated Book in the "General Guide to Weapon Refining", he decided to refine this flying sword.
The formations engraved in the Red Flame Sword are mainly the third-grade "Red Flame Formation", supplemented by the other eight second-grade formations.
Lin Mu had practiced the second-grade formation countless times when he was refining the more than thirty mid-grade flying swords, and the success rate of engraving was already over 60%, so there was no need to worry. Lin Mu had never figured out the third-grade formation before, and he didn't have any confidence in it.
The magic formula was executed like flowing water, and it was extremely smooth. Under Lin Mu's careful carving, the second-grade formations were successfully carved out one after another. Every time a formation was carved out, the red flame sword became brighter, with a red light. Flashing, eye-catching.
Lin Mu completed the eight second-grade formations in one go and carved them out smoothly.
Before, Lin Mu could only draw two second-grade formations at the same time, but today he successfully carved eight at once!
With such luck, Lin Mu couldn't help but become more serious.
Perhaps, he is expected to be able to successfully refine a top-grade magic weapon for the first time!
There are no absolutes in anything.
Is it inevitable that novices will face failure? Can't a novice be tough once again?
Lin Mu was willing to give it a try.
Lin Mu's expression was solemn and extremely serious as he continued to perform the spells.
The spiritual power is like a talisman pen, swimming in the red flame, carving out smooth lines. Under the stimulation of Lin Mu's magic formula, the lines appear clearly and freely. The red flame sword begins to flash red and makes a crisp sound. Chirping sounds also floated out from it.
Lin Mu calmed down and immersed his consciousness in the flying sword. Every line he carefully carved was perfect.
After continuously carving thousands of lines, Lin Mu's spiritual power slowed down, and he closed his eyes to concentrate, as if falling into a deep sleep. Then he suddenly opened his eyes and activated his spiritual power with all his strength. A five-color light flashed through, and a line of spiritual power was like a giant sword. , slashed into the sword body, and a chasm flashed out from the sword body.
In the chasm, flames floated and red waves surged into the sky.
This chasm, like a medium, instantly connected to the lines of spiritual power that Lin Mu had carved before. Thousands of lines were lit up at once, and the light flashed one after another. The red flame sword immediately glowed, and the red light shone brighter than every time before. Bright, extremely bright and charming.
The second step of carving the formation is perfect!
Lin Mu breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appearing on his face.
Then he gathered his strength and immediately used the magic formula to start tempering.
Tempering is not difficult for Lin Mu.
As the spiritual power is tempered over and over again, the red flame sword's light becomes stronger and stronger, and the red light becomes purer and purer.
Eight hours later.
An exciting clear cry flew out, and the red flying sword gathered the light, fell from mid-air, and landed in Lin Mu's palm.
Red Flame Sword, successfully refined!
Lin Mu caught the red flame sword, stood there, and began to close his eyes and meditate.
He gained a lot of insights from refining the third-grade flying sword.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he must absorb the insights in time to avoid forgetting them.
After a while, Lin Mufang slowly opened his eyes, filled with joy.
After this practice, his understanding of weapon refining has reached a new level.
After taking a short rest, he continued to refine another third-grade flying sword.
The flying sword he refined this time was different from the Red Flame Sword in a different formation. Lin Mu failed five times in a row before refining it successfully.
Lin Mu was very satisfied with this result.
After failing five times, it only took him three days.
In three days, you can successfully refine a high-grade magic weapon!
It took him several months to refine a mid-grade magic weapon before, but now he can refine a high-grade magic weapon in just three days. The progress can be described as a huge leap, a huge difference.
Many things are like this. They seem difficult, but once they are actually done, they will be like that. Doing them again will be much easier than before.
After that, Lin Mu was able to successfully refine a top-quality flying sword every two or three days.
Two months later, twenty dazzling high-grade flying swords were neatly placed in front of Lin Mu!
These twenty flying swords were specially refined by Lin Mu for the twenty talisman-making disciples.
As for the other disciples, each of Lin Mu also refined a mid-grade flying sword.
Putting away the flying sword, Lin Mu exited the rotating moon space with a smile on his face.
Lin Mu opened the door and walked out of the wooden house.
Outside the house, Father Lin was making rain for the elixir in the spiritual field.
It has been more than a year since the last harvest of elixirs, and this batch of third-grade elixirs is all green again.
This time, Father Lin only planted 300 acres of third-grade elixirs, and the remaining 100 acres were planted with first-grade elixirs.
Among the five, only Father Lin and Mother Lin have not reached the peak of the foundation building stage, but they are not far away from it. Three hundred acres of spiritual medicine is enough, and the remaining one hundred acres of spiritual fields are planted with first-grade spiritual grass for refining the Spirit-Gathering Pill.
In the one hundred acres of spiritual fields in the rotating moon space, Lin Mu has also planted several acres of fourth-grade elixirs.
It's just that the maturity period of fourth-grade elixirs is long, often decades or even hundreds of years, and it is difficult to see results in the short term.
Lin Mu stepped forward and chatted with his father for a while, then said that he would take his disciples back to the sect.
Father Lin had already expected this, so he agreed with a smile.
Lin Mu immediately summoned his disciples and distributed flying swords to everyone.
Each of the more than forty disciples has a flying sword, at least all of them are of middle grade!
Among them, because Shi Jian was a physical practitioner, Lin Mu did not help him refine the flying sword, and planned to make additional compensation in the future.
Shi Jian certainly had no complaints about this.
Although the other disciples who had obtained the middle-grade flying sword were envious of their brothers who had high-grade flying swords, they did not feel resentment towards Lin Mu because of this. They all knew what Lin Mu did. If they hadn't been lucky enough to become Lin Mu's disciples, they would probably still be struggling in the sect like those outer disciples. How could they be like they are now? sword.
They are satisfied with this kind of treatment.
Moreover, all the disciples are like a clear mirror. As long as they follow the master, there will definitely be no less benefits in the future!
The fifty disciples, except Gu Chen, the other forty-nine are all on the island in the middle of the lake.
Lin Mu sent out the flying sword and asked all the disciples to go back to their houses to worship.
Two months later.
On the island in the center of the lake, forty-nine disciples gathered together, and all of them had successfully refined their flying swords.
With a smile on his face, Lin Mu said goodbye to his parents, then took Shitou, Yunmeng and forty-nine disciples with him to return to the sect.
There are more than fifty people, all of whom are above the foundation building stage!
The sword light flickered and was dazzling, and the group of people flew to Qianyu Sword Gate in a mighty manner.
