Ji Yuan can now be sure that the Samadhi True Fire will not burn the golden rope under the appropriate temperature, but will only change its state.
However, Ji Yuan was also very sure that the other magic silk and golden scales in his hands could not withstand the burning of the true fire, and perhaps only the thunder would not be immediately burned by the true fire.
But it is said that the five elements of wood give birth to fire, so other woods would be fine, and they would probably be burned by the Samadhi Fire before they could react. But if this heavenly thunder was intertwined with the Samadhi Fire, if it was not controlled well at all...
Just thinking about it, the master Ji Yuan felt a chill. Perhaps the uncontrolled outbreak of the Samadhi Thunder and Fire would be one of the most terrifying things.
"But control has always been my strength."
Ji Yuan muttered to himself, and started with refining silk. He cast a spell to entangle it around a small piece of gold thread that had been torn off, and then directly spit out a breath of Samadhi True Fire.
The next moment, the flames added together, and even the special silk refined by Ji Yuan could not withstand it for a moment and was directly turned into ashes, making Ji Yuan feel a little embarrassed, but fortunately, this Samadhi True Fire was also his signature skill.
He tried another piece of golden scale. This time the golden wire rope was wrapped around the golden scale. The Samadhi True Fire burned over it and actually formed a layer of light film on the golden scale. Because water and fire are incompatible, the essence of Gui Water emitted waves, which the Samadhi True Fire resisted for a short time.
The next moment.
"boom… "
“Hua La La…”
The room was like a waterfall exploding, with huge waves of water splashing across it. Ji Yuan was soaked completely, and then the water evaporated in a very short time.
Ji Yuan’s entire body was shrouded in mist and looked like an immortal.
The failure of the initial attempt was just as Ji Yuan had expected. Magical weapons are certainly not so easy to refine. Practitioners who specialize in this field need to devote years of experience. Although he has extremely strong control and is quite talented in the way of immortality, it is impossible for him to achieve success overnight.
"I still have this one left to try..."
Ji Yuan took a look at the imperial thunder curse with flashing lightning and hesitated for a moment.
"Let's try to refine the silk again. Perhaps we can use the real fire to refine the golden rope first, then immediately extinguish the fire and let the silk replace the original golden thread and weave it into the golden rope whose properties have just changed!"
Ji Yuan did it as he thought. He did not use a new gold wire rope, but instead used the section that had been burned before and started refining it again.
In this state of slight excitement brought about by interest and anticipation, Ji Yuan still remained calm and carefully tried the magic weapon in his heart.
Before they knew it, a night had passed, and Ji Yuan, who seemed to have made no progress, had also figured out something.
Sometimes refining magical instruments or treasures does not only require sophisticated techniques, but also requires experience and magic methods, as well as opportunities such as the right time. Perhaps it is the lack of earth spirit objects, or perhaps it is something else.
Of course, you also have to draw inferences from other cases and humbly seek advice from an expert. As for the expert, there is a real expert living across the street, and he has a good relationship with Ji Yuan and is trustworthy.
It is already dawn. This is the Qiao Mansion after all, and Ji Yuan has removed the ban in time, allowing the morning light to dye the paper on the doors and windows into a soft morning glow.
Ji Yuan, who had not slept all night, stood up from the bed refreshed and walked to the door.
The moment the door opened with a "creak", the morning sun was setting, and Ji Yuan felt warm on his body.
The old beggar, who had also not rested all night, opened the door at this moment and greeted Ji Yuan with a smile.
"Morning, Mr. Ji, how was your rest?"
"You had a good rest. How about Mr. Lu?"
Ji Yuan answered with a smile on his face.
"That's not bad. It would be even better if I knew what Mr. Ji was doing last night..."
Ji Yuan smiled and shook his head. When the old beggar thought that Ji Yuan should say nothing or play dumb, Ji Yuan said something that surprised him.
"In fact, I just want to try to refine a treasure with yesterday's golden rope."
"oh?"
The old beggar showed an expression of great interest.
"How is it?"
Ji Yuan pointed to the stone table in the courtyard.
"Ji has many doubts and would like to ask Mr. Lu for advice."
The old beggar looked at Ji Yuan carefully, and seeing that Ji Yuan looked sincere, he smiled even more happily. He quickly came out of the room and walked towards the stone table.
"Come on, come on, Mr. Ji, come over here and tell me slowly. I, an old beggar, will tell you everything I know!"
Ji Yuan nodded, walked to the table in the yard, and with a wave of his sleeves, a teapot and teacups appeared on the table. The teapot was steaming, and there was a jar of sweet and fragrant honey on the tea tray.
"Hehehe, this honey is really good stuff! You, Mr. Ji, are the only one in the world who has it. This old beggar is in for a treat!"
A person like the old beggar can naturally tell the good from the bad of spiritual objects. He felt that this honey was very special when he was in Ji Yuan's courtyard. Yesterday, when he tasted this honey while eating the dishes made by Ji Yuan, he was even more certain of this. Even someone with his level of cultivation could have an effect on it. This was definitely not an ordinary thing containing spiritual energy. Ji Yuan had not refined this honey either, so it was all natural. One could only say that the flower that made the honey was extraordinary.
"Haha, if Mr. Lu likes it, I will save a jar for you when the nectar is ripe next year."
“Two cans!”
The old beggar stretched out two fingers and moved them back and forth, and Ji Yuan quickly shook his head.
"No, no, it's not that I'm stingy, this honey is hard to find in the world, and you and I have a close relationship if you can share a jar of it. For an ordinary person to give me a spoonful of it is already a deep affinity with me."
The old beggar was very happy to hear the words "we are inseparable friends".
"Hahaha... That's true. The old beggar naturally knows that Mr. Ji is not a stingy person. One can is one can. But don't forget it, otherwise the old beggar will squat at the door of Ju'an Pavilion every day to beg for food."
After the joke, the two of them immediately got down to business. Ji Yuan did not hide anything and told the old beggar all the changes of the gold thread and his thoughts.
If someone else said this, the old beggar would just laugh it off, but the person who said it was Ji Yuan. Although some of the content sounded like absurd "common sense" mistakes to him, since it came from Ji Yuan's mouth, the old beggar couldn't help but think carefully about it.
"It is not similar to the Five Elements, but it is transformed into the Five Elements here, using the non-existent to support the existing, achieving innate balance, and taking into account the yin and yang..."
If someone else had said this, the old beggar would have definitely cursed him as "idiot", but after Ji Yuan finished speaking, he remained silent for a long time, thinking hard about the possibility.
"Yes, the other four elements are easy to deal with. The main thing is that I am still lacking an earth spirit object and cannot try to transform it."
The old beggar didn't show it on his face, but his heart trembled. He understood Ji Yuan's words as follows: the other four elements and the yin and yang transformations were all in place, except for the earth element.
"If there is no earth spirit for the time being, what should Mr. Ji do? According to the old beggar's opinion, it is better to gradually transform it into the earth spirit according to the way of mutual generation."
"Well, I think so too. But everything in the world is created by the two energies of yin and yang, and refining equipment requires refining after all. So I plan to use the Samadhi True Fire as the base, showing the shape of fire while taking into account yin and yang, and first transform it into the wood-type Heavenly Tribulation Thunder to increase the fire. What do you think, Mr. Lu?"
The old beggar frowned.
"Samadhi True Fire? Heavenly Tribulation Thunder?"
Ji Yuan asked for advice humbly and was naturally frank, telling the other person in detail about his two most powerful skills.
"I dare not say that I am good at controlling fire, but I have a powerful fire-related magical power called Samadhi True Fire, and another equally extraordinary lightning-controlling magical power called Imperial Thunder Curse."
Ji Yuan is a relatively humble person, and the old beggar understands this. Ji Yuan always tried to deny his magical powers like "The World in His Sleeves", which were so extraordinary that one could tell from a mere glance on paper back then, but he was ashamed to show them to others. Now he says that the power is quite impressive, so it must be beyond comprehension.
"Would you mind letting this old beggar have a look?"
"Can!"
Ji Yuan nodded and opened his mouth slightly.
"Huh..."
It was not the true fire energy, but a ball of Samadhi True Fire that was directly spit out.
Wow…
The true fire has long existed in the mind. When it appeared, in the mind of a person of such great skill as the old beggar, it immediately gave rise to a feeling of a raging sea of fire. The mountains, the water, the wind, the clouds, everything was on fire...
Shaking off the fantasy for a moment, he took a closer look at the real fire floating in front of him. The flame moved steadily, showing a red-gray color, and did not seem to increase the temperature of the surrounding area.
Danger, this fire is dangerous!
"The Samadhi True Fire is Ji's most powerful magical power. It is made from the Alchemy Furnace True Fire transformed from the Heart Lord's Divine Fire and the Yin-Yang True Fire transformed from the Yin-Yang Qi. They represent the three elements of heaven, earth, and man. They are refined into one by taking the Samadhi. It is difficult for anyone who is hit by it to escape. It is too powerful, so Ji rarely uses it."
The old beggar took a deep breath and nodded seriously. He didn't want to try and let Ji Yuan take back the true fire. Then he watched as Ji Yuan waved his sleeves and a spiritual talisman shining with lightning flew out.
"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle..."
The feeling of oppression this time was much stronger than the state of Samadhi True Fire that was held in place but not yet unleashed, mainly because the thunder curse had not yet fully recovered.
The lightning flashed from golden to red, and the spiritual characters flickered unsteadily. The aura of thunder overflowed from time to time, causing the wind to rise all around, and the sand and stones in the yard rolled around the stone table.
The old beggar looked up at the sky and found that the wind and clouds in the sky were moving and showing signs of gathering, simply because of the appearance of the thunder curse.
"This talisman is called the Imperial Order Thunder Curse. Back then, there was a black dragon that had been injured for years, and its essence was scattered all over its body. I used the Imperial Order method to forcibly collect its essence, and transformed it into the intention of exorcising evil and righteousness, and condensed it into a thunder curse. Since then, it has been storing thunder for many years, and even received an extraordinary thunder of the Heavenly Dao. Now it is still a little short of the fire to stabilize again."
After thinking for a while, Ji Yuan added.
"This spell cannot be cast easily either."
The old beggar forced a smile.
"If this curse is used, it may be a punishment from heaven. Mr. Ji is kind-hearted, so he will use it with caution."
Since we have already talked about the two elements of fire and wood, Ji Yuan might as well talk about something else and took out the golden scale.
"This item was obtained from the Mirror Sea in the Mirror Xuanhai Pavilion. It is activated by the essence of Guishui..."
"Mirror Sea Golden-scaled Sturgeon?"
"Yes, it is this fish. Ji said before that most of the fish's Guishui essence was forced into the fish scales, and then it was taken out and used as a water object."
Impersonate
The old beggar's eyes widened.
"There is also the gold shape. Although it may seem inferior, it has excellent ductility and is a very important item..."
"Alright, alright, alright... Mr. Ji, there's no need to say more. This old beggar knows how powerful you are. Stop talking... Let's talk about the earth element. Let's talk about the earth element. You lack the earth element. Let's think of a way..."
"Let's talk about the refining method first. Ji Yuan is not very experienced in this field, so he is definitely not as good as Mr. Lu. Last night I tried to..."
Finally, knowing that Ji Yuan was really willing to learn and didn't do anything to provoke him, the old beggar breathed a sigh of relief and quickly got into the state, feeling even more excited than Ji Yuan.
With so many rare treasures in the world, and with two masters like him and Ji Yuan discussing together, and perhaps even refining them together, how amazing would the magic weapon they refine be
Just thinking about it makes even an old beggar, who is a highly skilled person, extremely excited.
