Cultivation Begins From The Desert

Zhou Yang started refining from the first-order puppet beast. He chose an iron bull puppet made of refined iron as the main material. This kind of puppet beast has no other advantages, except that it is wear-resistant and saves spiritual power. The stone can be driven, and if an ordinary first-order monster fights with it, it is basically certain to lose.

However this was of no use.

Even if it is a first-order puppet beast, it needs to be envoys with divine consciousness, and divine consciousness can only be possessed by cultivators in the Qi training period.

And with the weak consciousness of ordinary cultivators in the early stage of Qi training, they can only command this puppet to fight with people by riding on the back of the iron bull puppet. Therefore, the puppet beast is actually not for cultivators in the Qi training period. Whether it is their own cultivation or personal financial resources, the Qi training cultivators can't afford such expensive and high-end things.

Even if Zhou Yang did not lack this bit of spirit stone, he did not waste much time and materials on the first-order puppet beast. After spending three months refining a few first-order puppet beasts, he stopped the first-order puppet beast. Puppet beast refining, began to fully study the refining method of second-order puppet beast.

The refining cost of a second-tier low-grade puppet beast exceeds two hundred spirit stones. When Zhou Yang's family has mines, he is very cautious when refining such instruments, and he will not easily refine them. In this way, after more than half a year of research, he successfully refined the first second-order low-grade puppet wolf beast that can attack with a wind blade. It happened that Zhou Guangxiang also completed the cultivation of the Xiantian realm at this time, and successfully trained his mana to break through. On the first floor of the Qi training period, this puppet wolf beast was given to him by Zhou Yang as the first magic weapon in his life.

Since the Zhang Yunpeng poaching incident, Zhou Yang has been concerned about the education of these doll monks in the Zhou family. Not only does he often call the brothers and sisters Zhou Guangxiang and Zhou Xiang to his side in his spare time to ask for warmth, and refine some small cultivators. Toys are given to them to play with, and they often go to the school to give ideological education classes to other Zhou family doll monks.

In addition, he also took the time to write a relevant book with reference to the knowledge and materials in his previous life, and hand it over to Zhou Xuantai, the current chief elder of the Zhou family, so that he would often make up lessons for these doll monks.

Every time at this time, Zhou Yang couldn't help but think of the old people of the Zhou family who passed away in the "light" generation. Those old people are the people who have really experienced the Zhou family's prosperity and decline. Their own experiences are very educative for the younger monks. meaningfully.

Only after enjoying the convenience and benefits brought by the prosperity of the family, will the family cherish the previous life more, and want to make the family prosperous again through their own efforts, so that their descendants will not go back to their old ways. Zhou Yang's generation of monks has established a sense of belonging and identity to the family through the words and deeds of these family elders since childhood.

Not long after Zhou Yang refined the first second-order low-grade puppet beast, the news that the old patriarch Zhou Minghan successfully broke through to the eighth floor of the foundation building also came back, but Zhou Minghan received a lot of refining orders after the exchange meeting. The reason is that for the time being, he still has to stay in the Baishahe Oasis to use the ground fire room there to refine tools, and he cannot return to the family immediately.

In addition, Zhou Xuanhao has also successfully raised his cultivation base to the second floor of the foundation in the past six months, and finally he has not been thrown too far by Zhou Yang's son in terms of cultivation.

A year later, Zhou Minghan returned to Yuquan Peak after completing the order for refining equipment he received, and also began to study the method of refining puppet beasts.

With his accomplishments in the refining of tools, he quickly surpassed Zhou Yang in the refining of puppet beasts. Refining skills.

Under the guidance of Zhou Minghan, after another six months, Zhou Yang finally refined the second-order middle-grade puppet beast.

As soon as this second-order middle-grade puppet beast was successfully refined, Zhou Yang had a feeling that as long as he could make a second-order high-grade puppet beast, he could try to make a third-order magic weapon.

This discovery made him extremely excited, and he immediately put down everything and put all his energy into refining the puppet beast.

The hard work pays off. After a year and a half of refining the second-order middle-grade puppet beast, Zhou Yang finally made the first second-grade high-grade in his life after failing many times and consuming thousands of spiritual stones worth of materials. A puppet beast, a sturdy "black iron turtle" puppet.

This kind of "black iron turtle" puppet beast is huge, and it can stand a dozen people on the turtle's back. The puppet beast also uses two defensive spells, "Earth Armor" and "Golden Light Protection".

The most wonderful thing is that this "Black Iron Turtle" puppet beast also has a space for hiding people in its abdomen, and a small door can be opened to allow a person to hide in its abdomen to control the puppet beast.

Basically, if a mid-qi training cultivator could hide in the abdomen of this "black iron turtle", it would be difficult for an ordinary ninth-level qi training cultivator to break through the puppet beast's defense and attack him.

Of course, this "Black Iron Turtle" is so powerful, and it consumes a lot of materials. The cost price is as high as 800 spirit stones, which is comparable to the price of a fine second-order high-grade magic weapon. The income can also refine this big guy.

However, for Zhou Yang, these efforts are worth it. After refining the "Xuan Iron Turtle", he has indeed achieved a great harvest in the refining process. After "Iron Turtle" was put into the family treasury at a preferential price of 1,500 family contribution points, the cave was closed and closed.

A month later, Zhou Yang walked out of the retreat room and officially started refining the third-order magic weapon.

Zhou Yang had already made a decision about which one of his first Tier 3 magic weapons should be refined, and the materials had already been prepared.

At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged in the refining room, and with a wave of his hand, he took out several materials.

The third-order spirit gold "Huojing Iron", the third-order spirit gold "Scarlet Profound Essence Gold", and the special spirit gold he extracted from the feces of the second-order high-grade monster "Golden Rat".

The magic weapon he wants to refine this time, "fire crystal iron" is the main material, and "red profound fine gold" is to increase the hardness and toughness of the magic weapon. It's hard to say before.

The first step in refining the magic weapon is naturally to purify the impurities in the material. Zhou Yang waved his sleeves and released the third-order low-grade refining cauldron "Phoenix Pattern Purple Gold Cauldron". Then he waved his hand, and a group of pale golden The "True Dry Sun Fire" fell below the vessel and burned ragingly.

When the cauldron was heated to a sufficient temperature by the real fire, Zhou Yang played a magic trick to lift the lid of the cauldron, and threw a piece of fiery red metal about the size of an adult head into the cauldron to temper it.

"Fire Crystal Iron", as a third-order fire attribute spirit metal, has extremely high heat resistance. If ordinary ground fire and base-building cultivator's real fire are used, it will take ten days and a half to melt.

But under the scorching of the "Ganyang True Fire", whose temperature is even higher than that of the Zixin Fire, it began to melt in less than a day.

After Zhou Yang found that the material in the vessel began to melt, he began to use the refining method to quench the impurities in the material. As he played one method after another, the hole in the middle of the top of the vessel began to rise slowly. Puffs of black smoke.

These black smokes are produced by the impurities in the material being refined at high temperature, and have strong metal toxicity. Therefore, as soon as the black smoke comes out, it is carried by the ventilation array arranged in the refining chamber and spilled into the outside air. .

Impurities are not only discharged in the form of black smoke. Some impurities that are more difficult to refine, or raw materials with insufficient purity, need to be stripped from the material by Zhou Yang using the refining method, and directly in liquid form. The form extractor is thrown into the quenching pool and turned into waste.

Three days had passed by the time a large group of "fire crystal iron" had been quenched.

The tempered "fire crystal iron" is brighter and more transparent in color, and the aura of spiritual energy emitted is much stronger than before, and the volume is also reduced by nearly one-third.

Zhou Yang did not continue refining other materials at this time, but first meditated to recover the consumed mana. Although the efficiency of his "Dianyang True Fire" refining tool is faster than that of using ground fire, it also consumes a lot of mana, which is not at all. It may last for ten days and a half as in the fire room.

A day later, Zhou Yang waited until the mana recovered to 80% before starting to temper the remaining two materials.

After he had tempered all three materials, eight days had passed.

After the material has been quenched, the refining has just begun.

Zhou Yang rested for three days, and when his mana and spirit were fully recovered, he finally started the final refining.

In order to succeed in refining in one go, he directly used the ability of "Ganyang Orb" to greatly increase the temperature of "Danyang True Fire" during the refining process, but in less than half a day, he refined all three materials into metal. liquid.

Then, according to the records on the refining map, he uniformly fused the three groups of metal liquids together in different proportions to form a ring composed of metal liquids, while slowly lowering the flame temperature to let the ring gradually solidify, but not at the same time. Let it solidify completely into a solid, but in a molten state and remain that way.

At the same time, he kept playing the artifact refining technique in his hand, and cooperated with his divine sense to make the final correction to the metal ratio in the ring. In the ring, the flame was finally closed, causing the temperature in the vessel to drop quickly.

"It's done!"

In the refining room, Zhou Yang looked at the vessel in front of him with a tired expression, and there was a strong look of joy in his eyes.

At this time, he doesn't need to open the lid of the cauldron to take out the magic weapon inside. He can also perceive the spiritual power fluctuations of the magic weapon hidden in the cauldron.

However, he did not immediately take out the magic weapon in the cauldron~www.wuxiamtl.com~, but placed the cauldron there, and recovered his mana by meditating on his own.

This step has a name, called "pregnancy".

After the high-level magic weapon is successfully refined, it usually takes a period of time to take out the "pregnancy device". There are quite a few differences.

It is said that some high-level artifact refiners also master the unique "pregnancy" secret technique, and can use the "pregnancy" for a long time to improve the grade of the instruments that have been successfully refined again.

In the legends of the practice world, there is a great master of the Nascent Soul who refined a sixth-order magic weapon and placed the cauldron on the ground fire for a thousand years. Because this thousand-year-old "pregnancy device" has been upgraded to the sixth-rank top grade!

Of course, Zhou Yang didn't expect to use the "pregnancy tool" to upgrade his successfully refined third-order low-grade magic weapon to third-rank middle-grade magic weapon. He just didn't want to leave the third-order magic weapon he refined for the first time with flaws.

Moreover, the "pregnancy" time of the third-order magical tool does not need to be too long, the short is three or five days, and the long is eight or nine days. On the seventh day, Zhou Yang opened the lid of the tripod and took out the magical tool inside.

I saw that he shot a mana and fell on the cauldron to open the cauldron cover, and a crimson fire burst out from the inside, revealing the image of a fire bird.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, and the Fire Sparrow turned into a crimson ring magic weapon with a flame pattern and put it on his left wrist. "Well, as the first third-order magic weapon I made, of course I have to give you a more domineering name. Since your image is a fire bird, I will call you [Vermilion Bird Ring] from now on. !"

With his right hand, he gently caressed the metal ring on his wrist that still exudes a hint of warmth, and with a smile he gave the magic weapon a name that he thought was more high-end and elegant.
