Zhu Tingtao's temperament is quite unique among the masters that Ji Yuan has met. Including Ji Yuan himself, everyone tends to be gentle. After all, it is difficult for him to cause any waves in his state of mind. Zhu Tingtao cannot be said to be hot-tempered, and it is even more impossible for him to be impulsive. However, he gives Ji Yuan a feeling of "passion", which has nothing to do with his name.
After the old beggar and Ji Yuan explained everything they had planned, Zhu Tingtao had already made up his mind to participate. Not only did he want to repay Ji Yuan for his kindness, but he also did it out of interest.
There may not be an art to immortality in the world, but there is an art to longevity. When people reach their level, they have a long lifespan, and because of their rich experience and state of mind, it is quite rare for them to encounter something that they are interested in from the bottom of their hearts.
"I think we should first work together to refine the five elements spirit objects and do some preparatory work. I think we should do it in Yunxia Garden?"
Ji Yuan and the other two had no objection to Zhu Tingtao's proposal. Since they were all fellow Taoists preparing to refine weapons together, trust was a must. Ji Yuan directly took out the materials for refining weapons one by one without even changing the location. The guest hall of Yunxia Garden became the place for the four of them to retreat for a short period of time, and the monks from Xianxia Island were responsible for protecting them outside.
The golden thread, as the highlight, naturally amazed Ju Yuanzi and Zhu Tingtao, who had never seen it before. After seeing the golden thread, their attention was focused on the five elements spiritual objects.
The Samadhi True Fire and the Imperial Thunder Spell were just formalities, displayed once and then put away by Ji Yuan. The former was already at its peak and did not require any further sacrifices, while the latter required proper control.
The real highlight is the Mirror Sea Golden Scales, Mountain God Jade, Magic Silk and other golden spiritual items.
"This, Mr. Ji, is it too trifling to be a silkworm for a gold company?"
Among a pile of gold-based spiritual objects, a few balls of crystal clear, glittering silk were particularly eye-catching. It was not that they were too magical, but too ordinary. The old beggar grabbed the silk and couldn't help but raise doubts.
Zhu Tingtao frowned and took a ball of silk.
"No! This silk is not simple!"
Ju Yuanzi had already found the end of the thread. He pulled out the silk and took a closer look.
"Yes, this silk is not simple!"
As he spoke, Ju Yuanzi held the silk in his left hand and changed three seals with his right hand, which finally turned into a sword finger and drew along the silk.
brush…
A golden light flashed, and the silk was also filled with golden light. Small characters were projected out like projections, flowing at a palm's distance outside the silk.
There are countless small characters densely packed together, each one is vivid and extraordinary, revealing a mysterious aura.
Ju Yuanzi was also an expert in the art of imperial decrees, so he understood what was going on when he saw this scene.
"What an exquisite decree! No wonder the silk is of such high quality!"
Ju Yuanzi tried to pull it lightly, and as he had guessed, the silk could be stretched freely.
"As expected, Mr. Ji, the fishing line of your fishing rod is made of the same material, right?"
As someone who had eaten the meat of the golden-scaled sturgeon from Jinghai, Ju Yuanzi of course knew that Ji Yuan had a special fishing rod, which was used to catch the precious golden-scaled sturgeon. Jingxuanhai Pavilion was a man of his word, and since the fish was caught, no one tried to ask Ji Yuan for it. However, there was someone who wanted to taste it but was not able to do so.
In fact, even if Ju Yuanzi hadn't pointed it out, the dense laws in the silk would naturally not escape the eyes of the old beggar and Zhu Tingtao. They also discovered the mystery of the silk, and even found that in addition to the dense laws, there were also real imperial edicts hidden in it.
"Yes, it is fishing line. Rope-type magic weapons are extremely rare. In the secular world, ropes are naturally used for binding, so they must have excellent ductility."
Ji Yuan also took a ball of silk and gently pulled it to stretch it.
"Although the original material of this fishing line is ordinary, it has a special magical effect. At the beginning, because Ji was good at fishing, he specially refined the fishing line, which made it very good at stretching. It can be used together with the golden wire rope as the 'bone' of the rope magic weapon."
The old beggar's eyes flashed and he looked at the golden spiritual object beside him.
"If that's the case, then this silk is indeed indispensable, but in order to balance the five elements, its quality must also be improved. I can only force the gold spirit into the silk thread!"
Forcing the golden spirit into the silk thread may sound simple, but it is actually extremely difficult. This is not like cooking soup to make it flavorful.
Objects made of the Golden Spirit are the strongest, sharpest, and most stable. Ordinary refiners choose the right materials and techniques to magnify the advantages of the materials themselves, and then selectively integrate them into compatible magical methods. I have never heard of breaking the balance of the Golden Spirit and transferring it to other things. Not to mention whether it is difficult or not, normal cultivators dare not even think about it.
But the four people here were not normal monks. As soon as the old beggar spoke, everyone nodded in agreement.
"Yes, this silk thread is indeed necessary. It can only improve the quality of its gold spirit."
After Zhu Tingtao finished speaking, Ju Yuanzi also stroked his beard.
"Let Ju take the lead in integrating the golden spirit. Although I, Yu Huaishan, am not good at sword cultivation, my name is there after all, and I am still very good at controlling the golden spirit. Mr. Ji, use the Samadhi True Fire to force out the golden spirit, and the two fellow Taoists will help me refine the golden spirit into silk!"
"good!"
"Just do as you say!"
"good!"
Ji Yuan and the others agreed immediately. In order to increase the sense of participation, they had said that they would refine and control the five elements separately. The Samadhi True Fire itself was the most important catalyst and was a perfect thing that had reached the ultimate. It did not need to be refined anymore and belonged to Ji Yuan himself. The remaining four elements would be exactly one for each of the four people.
Ju Yuanzi is a hermit from Yuhuai Mountain and occupies the metal element; the old beggar is very good at the earth element, so he naturally occupies the earth element; Zhu Tingtao and the old dragon are more similar, both of them are good at water, clouds and fog, and also good at thunder and lightning, so just pick one from wood and one from water.
Of course, for a person with this level of cultivation, the choice of the five elements is just an optimization choice, and there will basically be no shortcomings, except for Ji Yuan.
The four of them sat in a circle occupying the four poles, with only silk and golden spiritual objects left in the middle.
Ji Yuan clasped his hands together and quietly performed the Transformation of Heaven and Earth, merging the meaning of heaven and earth within his body into the outside world. The shadow of a huge alchemy furnace appeared in front of the four people.
There was a terrifying and blazing real fire burning in the furnace, as if it was about to start a raging sea of fire.
"Mr. Ji, Yunxia Garden is still the base of my Xianxia Island for the time being. Please be careful when you attack, don't burn it..."
Feeling the domineering power of the Samadhi True Fire, Zhu Tingtao couldn't help but remind Ji Yuan, who smiled faintly.
"I wish you peace of mind, I will be careful."
As he was speaking, the top of the huge alchemy furnace in the artistic conception slowly rose, and a red-gray blazing flame appeared in the eyes of the four people. At this moment, Ji Yuan slowly opened his mouth and continuously spit out Samadhi True Fire, burning towards the golden spiritual object in the center.
The other three people quickly cast spells, and circles of magic light surrounded the center to prevent the power of the Samadhi True Fire from leaking out. They could feel the terrifying speed of magic power consumption even more.
Outside Yuzhu Garden, the disciples of Xianxia Island who served as guardians had an illusion. It was as if they saw a raging sea of fire at some point in the moment. The surroundings were so scorching hot that even their hearts began to feel irritated.
Chang Yi and another elder discovered the abnormality of the disciples in time, and the former sent a message to wake everyone up.
"All disciples of Xianxia Island, listen up. Pay attention to guarding your spiritual platform and keep your mind clear. Do not stay in the meditation hall. This is not something we can spy on. Otherwise, at best your soul will be damaged, or at worst you will go crazy!"
Chang Yi's timely reminder also made all the disciples of Xianxia Island come back to their senses quickly. The four masters were in seclusion in the guest hall, and everyone would be curious. Although it was impossible to spy on anything, they would definitely pay attention to the location of the guest hall. Under the guidance of their thoughts, when Ji Yuan's artistic conception alchemy furnace was opened, almost all of them were rushed by the heat of the Samadhi True Fire and were almost injured.
In the guest hall protected by numerous restrictions, the Samadhi True Fire melted some golden and silver-looking spiritual objects into golden water in a very short time.
Ju Yuanzi was fully focused, muttering to himself, and golden imperial edicts flew out one after another. His hands kept making hand seals, and the golden water pulled out countless fine threads, which rose in a spiral and quickly rotated around a silk thread in the center. Every time it rotated thirty-six thousand times, misty golden light overflowed.
This is obviously a relatively long process, but the four of them are not in a hurry. This is just an appetizer. Refining this magic weapon will take years no matter how you think about it.
…
Ten days later, from high above the Dazhen Tongtian River, a ray of sword light broke through the strong wind and flew straight to the Tongtian River without slowing down. Almost at the same moment, it pierced into the surface of the river without even causing a splash.
In the Dragon Palace in the Water Palace, the old dragon who was originally studying chess in front of a chess book suddenly changed his expression and stood up from the table in the backyard. The sharp sword intent contained the spirit of spring, which must be the Qingteng Sword without a doubt.
'Did something happen to Ji Yuan?'
The old dragon flashed and rode the water to arrive in front of the palace in an instant, just in time to see the Green Ivy Sword flash before his eyes.
The Qingteng Sword was still the same, but there was a small paper crane on the hilt. Its two wings were holding the hilt tightly, and its little head was just touching the hilt, as if it was afraid of being thrown off. When the magic sword stopped, the paper crane raised its head and saw the old dragon with a curious look on his face.
Upon seeing the old dragon, the little paper crane immediately loosened its wings, stretched its body, flapped its wings, cut through the water and flew to the old dragon. The old dragon stretched out his right hand to let the little paper crane stop, and pecked it lightly on its fingertips.
Suddenly, the message from Ji Yuan reached Lao Long.
"Five people are refining magic weapons together? They are not like the five elements, but the five elements of yin and yang. They refine the five elements separately and control them together to recreate the world!"
Lao Long murmured, and his expression became interesting.
"What a big deal! What a big deal! If this thing is really refined, it might be the best treasure in the world for binding people."
"It's just that it's a bit annoying to be at the Xianyou Conference venue, but how can I be left out of this matter?"
After a while, Lao Long had made a decision. He carefully placed the paper crane back on the hilt of the sword and faced the paper crane and the fairy sword.
"You guys go back and report first. I'll give you a few instructions and I'll be there soon!"
The little paper crane nodded very smartly, then quickly hugged the hilt of the sword. The next moment, with a slight sound of sword ringing, the sword light flashed again, then broke through the surface of the river and flew towards the strong wind layer.
