Chapter 167 ~The casting of handed down magic weapons

Three days later, it was at the junction of the four areas of Tianqiu Valley, Cuijuepo, Luhuachi and Dunyuling.

Inside the huge Flame Cave, an elite Qianyan Army has gathered, and outside the cave, a large number of capable men are constantly patrolling, not daring to let go of any corner.

In the cave, where the huge fire tree monster originally grew, there is now a huge furnace.

Under the furnace, the red flame element was drawn from the earth's veins, forming an extremely high-temperature flame that was firmly suppressed by the seal.

Next to the flames, there are mountains of mola piled up, which are the catalyst for later melting ore.

Next to the furnace, a large number of precious ores that are rarely seen on the market, high-level elemental materials that ordinary people can't see, and rare treasures that are hard to find for ordinary people are piled together, just like those ordinary ones in a blacksmith shop. Like iron ingots.

Outside the core casting area, dozens of people dressed in different clothes were already waiting.

Some of them were from the Liyue Chamber of Commerce, some were from the Liyue Magician family, and even more were from the Secret Treasury of the General Affairs Department and the Qianyan Army.

Although they usually have some status in their respective forces, this time they are waiting here early.

Because once the flames under the furnace are released and the casting officially begins, the place will be completely sealed. By then, no one can come in unless an immortal comes.

In the crowd, Xingqiu and Chongyun, who were following their respective elders, looked at each other from a distance, and then looked at Ke Qing, who had a serious face in the Qianyan Army camp.

The friends who had fun playing together at the banquet three days ago did not expect to meet here.

Chongyun followed his elders obediently.

And Xingqiu suddenly had a hunch that there would be some acquaintances there soon.

Keqing was more direct. She had no premonition. She already knew that the handed down magic weapon cast this time was cast for Wang Daoyi.

Time passed little by little.

The people from Hanfeng Iron were the first to arrive. Master Zhang led dozens of senior blacksmiths into the core area, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Are we going to start?" Xingqiu looked at the core furnace curiously.

Next to Xingqiu, a young man who was similar to him shook his head: "Not yet. These Hanfeng blacksmiths will process the minerals first, and then the people from the General Affairs Department will take over the processing of the elemental materials. These two steps will probably take two people." Days of time.”

Xingqiu raised his head: "Why does brother know? And, since it takes two days, why do we come so early."

The young man smiled: "Because this is not the first time I have seen this kind of scene."

Reminiscing about the scene where Han Feng blacksmith spilled blood on the furnace a few years ago, the young man sighed with emotion: "In order to cast a heirloom weapon, there is no difference between these people and lunatics."

"As for why you came so early? Haha, just watch, you will know in a moment."

Xingqiu was a little confused, but he didn't continue to ask. Instead, like everyone else, he waited quietly.

Soon, another wave of people arrived, and a group of old men walked into the core of the Flame Cave under the protection of the Qianyan Group.

Before Xingqiu could ask questions, the young man introduced Xingqiu: "The people in the Secret Treasury of the General Affairs Department, even though they are all old men, in fact, every one of them is a master-level figure."

Xingqiu's eyes narrowed and he was a little shocked: "Master level!?"

Hanfeng Ironware first came with a master, and dozens of senior blacksmiths, who were already very knowledgeable. As for the General Affairs Department, a group of masters came directly. Xingqiu looked at it, and there were at least twenty dozen.

With this kind of background, it can only be said that it is an organization that has assisted Qixing in ruling Liyue for more than a thousand years.

The leader of the secret storehouse was the great master. He looked at Master Zhang at the furnace and nodded. Without saying anything else, he led the masters of the secret storehouse to the side to wait.

This situation made the young people around Xingqiu a little surprised: "Unexpectedly, is Master Zhang the leader? The old guy from the secret library actually gave in. It's really interesting."

Not only was this young man surprised, there were also some comments from other forces.

However, these discussions soon stopped because the rightful owner arrived.

A huge blue wind eagle hovered above the cave, and a figure fell from above.

It was Wang Daoyi who came here.

He accurately landed on Qianyan Army's territory. Looking around, he actually saw Xingqiu and Chongyun. He nodded slightly to them, then looked at Keqing: "Is the time up?"

Keqing took out a pocket watch from her sleeve and looked at it: "There is still half an hour, when the sun is at its peak, the furnace can be started."

Wang Dao nodded: "Okay, I'll go talk to the Grand Master."

Then walk towards the direction of the General Affairs Department.

On the other side, Chongyun looked at Wang Daoyi in surprise. He didn't have the same premonition as Xingqiu. He really didn't expect to see Wang Daoyi here.

And Xingqiu was indeed like this. He had a hunch just now that he would definitely see some familiar people.

This acquaintance is Wang Daoyi.

There is no reason for this feeling. If I have to make up one, it is that Wang Daoyi's posture when he was at Qingce Village left a deep impression on Xingqiu. Therefore, Xingqiu naturally felt that Wang Daoyi felt Wang Daoyi in such a big scene. Will appear in a while.

Not knowing what Xingqiu and Chongyun were thinking, Wang Daoyi walked up to the Grand Master and said, "Grand Master, how are you preparing? Is there anything you have missed?"

The Grand Master shook his head: "The Han Feng Zhang family has accumulated a lot of experience in pursuing the casting of handed down magical artifacts for generations. In addition, Liu Yun Jiefeng Zhenjun's drawings are very perfect. Han Feng Iron Artifacts and the people in the secret library will have no problem. , the Alchemist family has also practiced the smelting array countless times, and we have no problem. You are the only one who needs to control such a massive amount of rock elements, will you be okay?"

In the drawings drawn by Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, a large amount of precious materials are needed to create the body of the magic weapon, that is, the shape of the magic weapon.

Then use the Scroll of Wu Gen as the pages of the magic weapon.

When the magic weapon is finally formed, a large amount of rock elements are needed to fill it, laying an energy foundation for the magic weapon to be promoted to the next generation.

The previous steps were completed by the joint efforts of Hanfeng Ironware, Secret Storehouse, and the Alchemist Family, and the last step, filling in the massive rock elements, was Wang Daoyi's job.

Nodding: "Don't worry, I won't have any problems."

The Grand Master nodded. He believed that the other party would not brag in such a critical place.

Time passed little by little. Finally, Keqing looked at her pocket watch and then looked up at the sky. The blazing sun was directly above the cave. Through the opening above the cave, the sun's rays directly shined into the blazing cave.

"The time is up, everyone is ready, Qianyan Army, seal the cave, and the alchemists are in formation."

Following Keqing's order, a large number of Qianyan troops surrounded the cave. In the air around the cave, some airships with the seven-star emblem were swimming rapidly.

In addition to the Qianyan Army, a large number of elites from Liyue's major forces gathered to surround the intersections and hillsides leading to this place.

Inside the cave, dozens of white-haired, child-like old men were wearing cloth robes and sandals, with yellow silk double tassels tied around their waists. They were holding ink-black long swords and were in formation.

"The order is given, the formation is set up."

These are the elders of the alchemist family. They don't need those complicated formulas. With just an order, a huge light curtain rises and covers the entire cave. Now, not even a mosquito can fly in.

Only then did Xingqiu realize why he had come so early, because if it were later, when the light curtain rose, he would definitely not be able to get in.

the other side

At the core of the cave, Master Zhang slapped the furnace and shouted: "Alchemist, light the fire."

The alchemist's formation changed, and a mysterious small formation formed at the top of the huge light screen. The surrounding sunlight was attracted, and for a moment, the entire area felt dim.

The next second, an extremely bright point of light appeared on the flame seal under the furnace, burning through the seal, and then exploded the leyline fire sealed in it.

Feeling the rapidly rising temperature around him, Master Zhang nodded with satisfaction and continued to call: "Han Feng, add more ingredients."

Dozens of blacksmiths were bare-chested, with half of their hands assigned to continuously throw the precious ores placed on the side into the huge furnace.

People around them took a closer look and found that these blacksmiths seemed to be doing hard work. In fact, there seemed to be regulations on the type and quantity of ore thrown into the furnace each time.

Wang Daoyi nodded secretly. These Hanfeng blacksmiths were indeed elites. Every move they made was very consistent with the casting rules required by Zhenjun Liuyun Jiefeng in the drawings.

The addition of materials did not last long, or in other words, there were too many ore materials prepared on the side, and the furnace was filled with only a tenth of the ore.

"Alchemist, close the furnace!" Master Zhang continued to order: "Han Feng, shake the furnace."

The alchemists waved their swords in unison, and the huge furnace was shut down. The dozen Hanfeng blacksmiths who were originally staying next to the furnace focused their eyes, and made a classic impact movement. In the horrified eyes of some onlookers, they slammed into the center. of the melting pot.

The flesh and blood collided with the hot furnace, making a "squeaking" sound.

On the other side, Master Zhang and some of the alchemists who maintained the formation turned pale, and then quickly recovered under the influence of a certain aura.

Chongyun's eyes lit up: "Is this the method of breath connection?"

Chongyun's words made the old alchemist beside him nod with satisfaction. The young people of this generation still have some discernment. This pure Yang body can become a great person in the future.

Through the formation that envelopes the Flame Cave, the auras of the blacksmiths are connected and all non-fatal injuries are evenly distributed.

It seems that it is very dangerous for the blacksmiths to hit the furnace with their bodies. In fact, it is the formation that is responsible for the feedback from the furnace, then Master Zhang at the core of the formation, and finally the blacksmiths who were slightly burned.

On the other side, Wang Daoyi couldn't help but nod. He had seen Qianyan Army and Qianyan Regiment use similar breath-linking battle formations.

This is the first time that the breath connection is achieved through the alchemist formation.

"No wonder the Grand Master is so confident. Under this aura-connected formation, as long as Master Zhang, who is the center of the formation, can hold on, these blacksmiths can keep hitting them."

As for how strong Master Zhang was physically as a master blacksmith, Wang Daoyi did not comment.

Furthermore, looking at the recovery speed of Alchemist and Master Zhang just now, this formation obviously has the function of recovering injuries and stabilizing the breath.

In the shocked eyes of some people who didn't know the truth, the Hanfeng blacksmiths hit the huge furnace again and again.

Ten times, a hundred times, until the smoke no longer comes out of the huge furnace.

Master Zhang's eyes lit up: "Han Feng, stop, alchemist, open the furnace to get materials, secret storehouse, prepare the silk thread."

Under Master Zhang's order, Blacksmith Hanfeng stopped abruptly, then quickly retreated, more than ten meters away from the furnace.

From the alchemist formation, four alchemists walked out, holding long black swords, and the four of them surrounded the huge furnace.

"Order, open!"

The formation was operating, and an inexplicable force acted on the huge furnace. The originally closed furnace mouth shook slightly, and the furnace mouth was opened.

Incandescent light burst out from the furnace mouth with high temperature, stinging everyone's eyes.

In the Chamber of Commerce camp, the young man reminded: "Here he comes, pay attention."

Xingqiu's spirit was shaken, and he looked at the furnace with wide eyes.

Under the control of the alchemist, a solution that was only as big as an egg was taken out. Mysterious fluctuations emitted from it, and there were vaguely indistinguishable runes that appeared and disappeared.

Before Xingqiu could see clearly, the solution was controlled and sent to the hands of a master who came out of the secret library camp.

The master's dry palms held the hot solution, as if he could not feel the temperature at all.

In the horrified eyes of everyone, the master stretched out his other hand, gently pinched a little bit of the solution, and then gently pulled.

A thread so tiny that it cannot be seen was pulled out of the solution by the master.

Xingqiu opened his eyes wide. He couldn't even imagine this scene.

Looking at his brother beside him, he needed answers.

The young man was also amazed: "No matter how many times I see this kind of skill, people can't believe it."

Then he looked at Xingqiu and answered for him: "I have never seen this master, but he uses a technique called drawing, which is usually used on glass products and some gold and silver jewelry. To use glass solution or metal solution to pull out fine threads for handmade products."

"This kind of craft is usually learned by jewelry craftsmen. This master is probably a master jewelry craftsman."

There are two types of jewelry craftsmen in the young man's mouth. One is the former, which refers to those jewelry craftsmen in Liyue market, and the other is the latter, which are true master craftsmen with the ability to make legendary equipment.

Then with a little sigh: "Another master jewelry craftsman I have never seen before. Oh, the secret vault is the secret vault, it can really be hidden."

Finally, looking at Xingqiu's half-understanding eyes, the young man shook his head helplessly: "If you read less fantasy novels and more reports from the Chamber of Commerce, you will know how rare craftsmen of this level are. ...Stop talking, did you see anything else just now?"

After being scolded by his brother, Xingqiu shook his head in embarrassment: "I feel like I saw some runes, but I didn't remember anything."

The young man nodded, with some regret in his eyes: "Those are not ordinary runes, they are legal principles that belong to handed down magic weapons. If you just memorized them, it will be of great benefit to enter a higher level in the future. This is why we The reason why you have to participate and get a seat is to pay such a high price.”

Even though they only had two people from the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, they paid for a lot of the materials on the ground in the center.

On the other side, the old alchemist beside Chongyun also looked at Chongyun and asked the same question as the young man: "Have you written down anything?"

Chongyun frowned, stretched out his hand, a strange rune appeared, and then collapsed instantly: "My grandson is stupid, he only memorized some shapes, but did not understand the meaning."

Facing Chongyun's guilt, the old alchemist's eyes were full of joy: "Okay, okay, okay, keep reading. If you can perfect this pattern of law, it will be of great benefit in the future."

Like young people and old alchemists, there are many elders in other camps asking the younger generations if they have gained something.

However, most of them have seen it but cannot remember it. Like heavy clouds, there are only a few who can remember some "shapes".

On the other side, the jewelery master in the secret library moved faster and faster, a trickle of sweat appeared on his forehead, the solution in his hand became smaller and smaller, and the filaments around him were suspended in the air, getting longer and longer.

At the core, the furnace was filled again, and Hanfeng Blacksmith began to hit again.

It's just that the blacksmith who hit it just now went to load the ore, and the blacksmith who loaded the ore just now came to hit it. They were working in shifts.

Only Master Zhang has been standing by the furnace, enduring the extremely high temperature and staring closely at the furnace, fearing that he will miss the time.

Hanfeng Blacksmith kept hitting the furnace according to certain rhythms, making bursts of collision sounds.

Not far away, an alchemist controls a metal thread that has been stretched by a jewelry master to be invisible to the naked eye, suspended in the air.

Master Zhang took a look and gestured towards the Secret Treasury camp.

In the Secret Vault camp, the Grand Master nodded to a female craftsman.

The female master stood up, walked out of the camp, and came to the field. The alchemist who controlled the metal thread also immediately controlled the thread to float in front of the opponent.

This action immediately attracted everyone in the observation seats.

"Oh, this is a master in weaving. Remember the gold silk armor at home? It is the work of this master." The young man introduced it to Xingqiu.

"That golden silk armor that cost millions of molas to buy?" Xingqiu was shocked that such an expensive golden silk armor was actually made by this ordinary old woman.

With a smile in her eyes, the weaving master stretched out her hand and gently pinched one end of the metal thread. For her, this level of weaving thread had never been experienced before, and it was worth her full effort.

In the Chamber of Commerce camp, the young man's eyes turned cold: "You are empty-handed again, not using any props. Ha, is this a warning to us, or are you showing off your technical reserves?"

Not only the young people, but also some older people in the other observation seats all snorted in unison, leaving the young people next to them confused.

The female weaving master kept turning her hands, and the tiny silk threads invisible to the naked eye were easily grasped by her, and then a thin cloth woven from metal threads appeared bit by bit.

Wang Daoyi looked at it with interest. He naturally knew what the other party was doing. This was the cover of the magic weapon book, which is what everyone usually calls the book cover.

It is a component of his future ‘Exclusive Martial Arts’.

There are thousands of inscriptions on this component, and these inscriptions can be combined with each other to form different runes or even immortal seals.

And now, Wang Daoyi saw this female weaving master. Under the terrifying operation of her hands, while the silk threads were weaved into thin cloth, inscriptions were also formed on it one by one.

"I can't even understand this kind of skill!!" Wang Daoyi was shocked. Although the previous drawing master was also very magical, Wang Daoyi could still do it because he had extremely powerful control.

However, Wang Daoyi couldn't even understand what this weaving master was doing, and why corresponding inscriptions appeared on the thin metal wire cloth after the other party weaved.

It wasn’t just Wang Daoyi who was shocked, other people with some eyesight were also shocked when they looked at the weaving master. It wasn’t just Wang Daoyi who couldn’t understand. Basically no one could see how the weaving master did it. of.

Only the Grand Master looked at the movements of the Weaver Master and nodded secretly with satisfaction.

He can understand the other party's movements, and he can even do this kind of thing.

"How can you understand the weaving techniques taught by Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun?"

This is a technique that the great master obtained from seeking immortality when he was young.

This technology comes from immortals, so there are situations where even Wang Daoyi can't understand it.

Of course, if Wang Daoyi studied the Five Manifestations more deeply, he would find that this method of manifesting inscriptions out of nothing is an extension of one of the Five Manifestations.

We received feedback, so we merged the special weapon casting chapters.
