Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

Chen Yuan was startled, then smiled and said: "Friend Daoist Nie, calm down, I got this pair of gloves by chance. They were not made by Chen. Even the material of them is the first time I heard it from a fellow Taoist today. How can I talk about wasting natural resources?" "

The old man in sackcloth was stunned, and then he realized that Chen Yuan was a guest of Baoguang Pavilion, not a junior in the clan. The anger on his face disappeared, and he said apologetically: "I saw such a rare and excellent treasure, and used such rough techniques. Refining, I was out of temper for a moment and spoke out of turn, please forgive me, Fellow Daoist Chen."

Chen Yuan said: "It doesn't matter. Fellow Daoist Nie is good at refining weapons. It is reasonable for him to be angry when he encounters this matter. But Chen is confused, what kind of monster is this thousand-year-old snow silkworm? Its silk is woven into these gloves. After that, it is thin and tough, and can withstand the best magic weapons. I like it very much. Why does it become a waste of nature in the mouth of fellow Taoists? "

He turned the topic to weapon refining, and the old man in sackcloth suddenly became energetic and explained: "Young Daoist Chen doesn't know something. This thousand-year-old snow silkworm is a level five monster that only appears in the coldest places in the extreme north of Donghua Continent. The silk it spits out is a high-quality spiritual material. If woven into a robe, it would be at the level of a magic weapon. It is not afraid of flying swords, can avoid water and fire, and has the effect of turning invisible. It takes advantage of the tenacity of the thousand-year-old snow silk, but does not take advantage of its characteristics at all. It is only at the level of a top-grade magic weapon. It is really a waste of natural resources. "

After hearing this explanation, Chen Yuan showed a look of surprise and said: "I see, thank you Fellow Daoist Nie for clarifying my doubts. Since Fellow Daoist can see the flaws of these gloves, is there any way to upgrade them into a spiritual weapon?"

The old man in sackcloth said without hesitation: "This matter is easy to hear. As long as we add the two spiritual materials of Qingmang Snake Demon Pill and Huanyin Stone and refine it again, I can upgrade it to a top-grade spiritual weapon. If there is another bunch With the same weight of Millennium Snow Silk, I am even three-thirds sure that this pair of gloves can be upgraded to a magic weapon!"

Chen Yuan's eyes lit up: "Do you have these two spiritual materials in your hands, Fellow Daoist Nie? I also ask Fellow Daoist to refining this magic weapon for me. The required spiritual stones will definitely not be short of half a cent."

The old man in sackcloth frowned and said: "It's easy to say that the green light snake demon pill is easy to say. I have one in my hand. It is full of essence and blood. It is more than enough to refining these gloves. But although the Huanyin Stone is only a medium-grade spiritual material, it is It is extremely difficult to find. I only saw it once more than 40 years ago and never seen it again since then.”

When Chen Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but look disappointed, and said, "If these two spiritual materials are not added, can these gloves be upgraded to a spiritual weapon?"

The old man in sackcloth shook his head and said: "I can't do it. This pair of gloves has been refined once and has been finalized. If you don't add these two spiritual materials and use the spiritual energy in them to re-energize the spirituality of the thousand-year-old snow silk, you will have to re-refining it several times." , and it can’t increase its power by half.”

Chen Yuan nodded slowly: "So, Chen needs to find the Huanyin Stone before he can ask Fellow Daoist Nie to help me refine this magic weapon again."

The old man in sackcloth looked at the pair of gloves with a look of regret in his eyes: "Yes, without the Huan Yin Stone, I can't do anything. It's a pity that this bunch of thousand-year-old snow silk..."

He became obsessed with refining weapons, and his favorite thing in his life was to use rare spiritual materials to refine weapons. Now that he had a high-quality spiritual material in front of him, but could not use it to refine weapons, he was naturally extremely unwilling.

Chen Yuan pondered for a moment and asked: "Excuse me, Fellow Daoist Nie, how much spiritual stone is the Green Mango Snake Demon Pill worth? I wonder if you can part with it?"

The old man in sackcloth said: "This green light snake demon pill is useless to me, but the green light snake is a fourth-level monster, and its demon pill can be used to refine medium-grade spiritual weapons. Moreover, this demon pill is intact and full of essence and blood. If you want it, fellow Taoist, just give me nine hundred spirit stones."

When Chen Yuan heard this, he immediately touched his storage bag, and nine medium-grade spiritual stones appeared out of thin air on the table, saying, "Chen is willing to give you nine hundred spiritual stones to buy the Green-Glow Snake Demon Pill in the hands of fellow Taoist."

Seeing that Chen Yuan was so cheerful, the old man in sackcloth didn't hesitate. He immediately took out a wooden box and handed it to Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan opened it and saw a white demon pill the size of a walnut inside. It exuded a faint demonic aura and was in excellent condition.

What the old man in sackcloth said was indeed true. The demon pill was well preserved and filled with blood and essence, enough to be used to refine a medium-grade spiritual weapon.

Chen Yuan closed the wooden box again, put it in the storage bag, and said to the old man in sackcloth: "Thank you, fellow Taoist Nie, for your love. Chen also has a magic weapon. I would like to ask fellow Taoist to help him improve his grade. Please take a look at it."

He touched the storage bag, took out the Silver Gang Sword, and raised his hand to send it to the old man in sackcloth.

The old man in sackcloth caught the Yingang Sword, took a closer look, and couldn't help but frowned and said: "Why are these crudely crafted magic weapons in the hands of fellow Daoist Chen? This flying sword is made of Yingang stone as the main material, but only one top-grade one was made. Magic weapon, the person who refines this sword is really in vain to be called a weapon refiner!"

Chen Yuan smiled and said: "Friend Dao Nie, calm down. I got this flying sword by chance. I gave it to Nie Ming, the weapon refiner of your pavilion, for a look. He once said that if you want to improve the sword, you need to add silver gang stone. Black iron essence, black jade, and blue fluorite are the second best. I wonder if you have these spiritual materials in your hands?"

When the old man in sackcloth heard the words, his expression softened slightly, and he nodded and said: "Xiao Ming has learned the art of weapon refining well, but his cultivation level is a bit low, otherwise he would be able to inherit my mantle... What he said is true, these kinds of spiritual materials can all This sword has been upgraded to a spiritual weapon. I happen to have a piece of black jade in my hand. If fellow Taoist is willing, I can help you upgrade this sword to a low-grade spiritual weapon."

Chen Yuan was startled: "Is it just a low-grade spiritual weapon?"

The old man in sackcloth said: "That's right, the weight of the Yingang stone used in this sword is still a little less. If black jade is mixed in, the Yingang stone will be relegated to the supplementary material and become the main material of black jade. In the end, we can only Forged into a low-grade flying sword."

Chen Yuan shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Daoyou Nie, but low-grade spiritual weapons are useless to me, so I cannot let you refine this sword for the time being."

The old man in hemp clothes waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. I don't want to spend time refining a low-grade flying sword. If possible, Daoyou Chen should find a piece of silver Gang stone. Then I can upgrade this sword to a medium-grade spiritual weapon. If the silver Gang stone is enough, it can even be upgraded to a high-grade spiritual weapon."

Chen Yuan agreed and kept it in mind, but he didn't have much hope.

Silver Gang stone is also a very rare spiritual material. It is difficult to encounter it. Instead of pinning your hopes on it, it is better to spend spiritual stones and directly buy a high-grade spiritual weapon.

After asking about the two magic weapons, Chen Yuan put on the snow silk gloves again, put away the silver Gang sword, and said goodbye.

The old man in hemp clothes was interested in refining weapons. Seeing that Chen Yuan couldn't take out a new magic weapon, he didn't try to keep him. He got up and sent Chen Yuan out of the room.

A female Qi-refining cultivator was standing outside the door. When she saw Chen Yuan coming out, she bowed and said, "Senior, please follow me. Our chief Nie is waiting in the quiet room on the second floor."

Chen Yuan nodded and followed the female cultivator to the quiet room on the second floor.

Nie Ruyue sat in the room, drinking tea peacefully. Seeing Chen Yuan walk in, she stood up to greet him: "Did you get what you wished for, Fellow Daoist Chen?"

Chen Yuan nodded and said: "Master Nie of your pavilion is knowledgeable and has superb weapon-making skills. He solved the confusion in my heart with just a few words."

Nie Ruyue smiled and said: "It's good to be able to help Fellow Daoist Chen. If you need anything, just ask and I will do my best."

Chen Yuan said: "I do have something that I need the help of Master Nie. I originally wanted to ask Master Nie of your pavilion to upgrade the magic weapon in my hand to a spiritual weapon, but I lack spiritual materials and it is difficult to do so. Therefore, I need to buy two high-quality spiritual weapons. I wonder if your pavilion has any for sale?"

Nie Ruyue smiled when she heard Chen Yuan's words, but when she heard him say that he needed to buy two high-quality Spiritual weapon, but frowned slightly: "The spiritual materials required for top-grade spiritual weapons are extremely precious, and the difficulty of refining is also quite high. This pavilion only had three top-grade spiritual weapons before, but they were all bought by the monks of your sect half a year ago, and now there is none. But there are still seven mid-grade spiritual weapons. Daoist friends, do you want to see them?"

Chen Yuan frowned and asked: "Do the monks of our sect often come to your pavilion to buy spiritual weapons?"

Nie Ruyue shook her head and said: "In the past, the monks of your sect rarely came to our pavilion to buy spiritual weapons, but perhaps in order to deal with the demonic plague, in the past two years, many monks of your sect have come to our pavilion to buy spiritual weapons, not only top-grade spiritual weapons, but also a lot of mid-grade spiritual weapons."

Hearing this, Chen Yuan's heart trembled, and he inexplicably thought of the invasion of the demonic path mentioned by Jin Luoheng.

Now the demonic plague is everywhere in Qi State, but the foundation-building demon cultivators are still quite rare, so it is not to the extent that the foundation-building monks of Lingyun Sect go outside the sect to buy spiritual weapons.

Could it be that these Lingyun Sect foundation-building cultivators who came to Baoguang Pavilion to buy spiritual weapons knew about the invasion of the demonic sect in advance, just like him?

Chen Yuan felt a sense of urgency and asked, "Master Nie, do you know about the trade fairs that foundation-building cultivators participate in in the market?"

Since he couldn't buy high-quality spiritual weapons from Baoguang Pavilion, he could only search for them on his own.

Nie Ruyue said, "I know a thing or two..."

She told Chen Yuan about the several trade fairs she knew without reservation.

Chen Yuan bowed and said, "Thank you, Master Nie, for telling me. I have one last thing to do. I hope Master Nie can help me."

Nie Ruyue smiled and said, "Please go ahead, Daoist friend."

Chen Yuan said, "I need two spiritual materials, Huanyin Stone and Yin Gang Stone, to upgrade the grade of my magic weapon. Master Nie, please keep an eye out for them. If you find someone selling them, you can buy them first. I am willing to increase the purchase price by 20% and buy them from Master Nie. The subsequent upgrade of the grade of the magic weapon will also be handed over to Master Nie of your pavilion."

Nie Ruyue knew that Chen Yuan had no shortage of spiritual stones and gave Baoguang The pavilion left enough profit margin and immediately agreed: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Chen, leave this matter to me. As long as I encounter these two spiritual materials, I will find ways to buy them for you."

Chen Yuan stood up and said with a smile: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Nie. I have nothing else to do, so I'll take my leave now."

Nie Ruyue stood up and said softly: "Fellow Daoist Chen, take care. If you still have monster materials and magic tools to sell in the future, you are welcome to come to our pavilion to trade. I will definitely give you a price that satisfies you."

Chen Yuan nodded, bowed, and turned to leave.

Nie Ruyue said to the female cultivator beside her: "Please send Fellow Daoist Chen off for me."
