Chapter 943 - The essence of third-level refining!
Library, third floor.
After Wei Hong successfully practiced the Lin character formula of [Blood Evil Secret Art] and [Six Jia Secret Blessing Art], he knew that the upcoming war would be extremely dangerous, and it might still be difficult to deal with it with his current strength and trump cards.
He knew very well that if he wanted to survive in the war and play a greater role, he had to further improve himself, so after careful consideration, he decided to strengthen his weapon refining skills in preparation for refining the powerful Huatian Hunyuan Shield.
So he came to the third floor of the library in Cangshan Fairy City, which is also the place where various third-level skills, secret techniques and classics are stored.
As you step into the third floor of the library, an old and simple atmosphere hits you.
The tall bookshelves were neatly arranged, filled with densely packed jade slips, ancient books and notes.
The soft light illuminates every corner, making the entire space look quiet and solemn.
Wei Hong took a deep breath and began to search for the refining method he needed in this ocean of knowledge.
The city lord Lei Ling had promised before that he could exchange various jade slips and ancient books on skills in the library for free.
He first came to the area where books on refining equipment were stored. The bookshelves here were filled with various jade slips and ancient books related to refining equipment. Some of the jade slips had faint light flashing on the surface. They had obviously been consulted by many cultivators and contained a wealth of knowledge about refining equipment.
Wei Hong walked slowly along the bookshelf, his eyes calmly scanning the labels of every jade slip and ancient book.
"Hey, "The Essence of the Third-Level Refining Equipment"? This might be useful." Wei Hong whispered to himself and reached out to take down a jade slip.
He probed his spiritual sense into it and quickly browsed the contents.
This jade slip details the basic principles of third-level refining, material selection, and some common refining techniques.
Moreover, the explanation was very clear, especially the basic aspects. For Wei Hong, this was important information to consolidate the foundation of refining equipment, so he carefully put the jade slip into his storage bag and continued searching.
As time went by, Wei Hong went back and forth between the bookshelves more and more frequently.
He also found several ancient books about third-level refining, such as "The Secret of the Fusion of Spirit Crystals and Refining" and "The Application of Rare Minerals in Refining".
These ancient books recorded many valuable experiences and unique techniques in refining equipment, which brought him great benefits.
But he couldn't study it carefully now, so he could only look at it carefully after he returned.
However, what he wanted most were those refining notes that recorded refining experiences and unique insights.
This type of notebook is often written by experienced refiners, and contains the problems they encountered in the refinement process, solutions, and some unknown experiences.
After searching for a while, Wei Hong found a few old-fashioned notebooks on a bookshelf in a corner. They were exactly what he was looking for.
His eyes suddenly lit up and he couldn't wait to pick up one of the books.
The cover of this notebook reads "Experiences in Refining Equipment - Stage Three". When you open it, you will find that it records in detail the experiences and insights of a stage three refiner in refining various magical weapons, from the pre-treatment of materials, to the control of the temperature, to the stimulation of the spiritual power after the magical weapon is formed, etc. Every link is described in detail.
Wei Hong was overjoyed and continued searching on the bookshelf.
After a while, he found two equally valuable notebooks, one was titled "Analysis of Key Nodes in the Refining of Third-Level Magical Weapons", and the other was "Exploration of the Miraculous Effects of Special Materials in Third-Level Refining". These two notebooks conducted in-depth discussions on third-level refining from different angles, and could definitely provide valuable ideas for his upcoming refining of the Huatian Hunyuan Shield.
The time passed quickly in the library. Before he knew it, the sky outside had gradually darkened. He had stayed in the library for at least three or four hours.
Wei Hong left the library contentedly, holding a pile of jade slips and letters.
There is no need to make copies of these jade slips and letters. Just return them all to him after he has read them thoroughly.
Wei Hong knew that this knowledge of refining equipment would become the key to improving his refining skills.
After returning to the cave, he will immediately devote himself to the study of these refining knowledge, and begin to carefully study the refining techniques and refining experience, making final preparations for refining the Huatian Hunyuan Shield.
In the practice room.
Wei Hong held a jade slip in his hand, with a thoughtful look on his face.
He muttered to himself at this time: "If I want to refine the Heaven-Transforming Primordial Shield, it is not enough to just improve my refining skills. I also need to collect enough materials. These materials are not easy to get, and they are very expensive!"
According to the records in the jade slip, the main material for refining the Huatian Hunyuan Shield is thousand-year-old cold iron, and the refined iron part must be of extremely pure texture to withstand the energy impact generated when subsequent materials are integrated.
The auxiliary material required was the third-grade low-quality cloud essence stone. This kind of ore grows on the top of a high mountain, where it is surrounded by clouds and mist all year round. It has unique spiritual power fluctuations and can enhance the spiritual power capacity of magic weapons.
It also requires a drop of earth's core fire marrow, which contains powerful fire energy and is the key to activating the spirituality of the magic weapon. It is absolutely indispensable.
In addition, you need to collect three spirit crystals with different attributes, namely the Qinglan Spirit Crystal with wind attribute, the Youshui Spirit Crystal with water attribute, and the Houtu Spirit Crystal with earth attribute. They can give the magic weapon a variety of defensive properties.
The above materials are the most important, and the rest are auxiliary materials. Although they are all third-level materials, their prices are much cheaper than the above materials.
Even so, if Wei Hong wanted to collect all these materials, it would probably cost a lot of money, and some things might not even be available for purchase.
"Alas, you never regret not having enough money until you need it!"
Wei Hong couldn't help but feel a headache when he thought about needing a large amount of spirit stones immediately.
He was not stingy, but was worried that his spirit stone reserves were insufficient.
The spirit stones he earned were meant to be spent, and to enhance his own strength. No matter how much he spent, he would not feel sorry. He was just worried that he would not have enough spirit stones to buy the materials he wanted.
"Starting tomorrow, we will go to various shops. If we don't have enough spirit stones, we can go to the Ten Thousand Snakes Abyss to see if there are any lone Golden Core monsters. This will also allow us to gain vitality points, killing two birds with one stone."
Wei Hong already had a plan in mind; he must find time to go to Wansheyuan a few more times.
One is to obtain vitality points. Without vitality points, it would be difficult for his secret techniques and refining skills to improve.
The second purpose is to hunt Jindan-stage monsters. The materials on those Jindan-stage monsters are very valuable. As long as he can successfully hunt one or two, perhaps he will no longer have to worry about the problem of insufficient spirit stones.
Of course, he can also sell the raw black crystal ore.
Moreover, Wei Hong also intended to turn the secret room next to the secret mine in Wansheyuan into a secret cave. In this way, he could continue mining and leave a retreat for himself. Even if the war really broke out, he could take refuge there.
