After Bai Yunfei returned to his residence, he didn't do anything else. He stayed in the house almost the whole day, holding the golden dagger in his hand, carefully recalling every detail of Kou Changkong's refining, and refining it. Keep it deeply in my mind and realize it bit by bit.
The next day, it was still in that spacious secret room.
“…”
"Yunfei, I just told you some key points about the first step of melting. Now, it's up to you to try it yourself and see how far you can do it as a teacher." Kou Changkong explained to Bai Yunfei for a while. , said with a smile, then flipped his right hand, took out a fist-sized piece of black ore, and handed it to Bai Yunfei, "This is a golden stone similar to the one I refined yesterday. You can melt it and have a look."
"Yes, Master." Bai Yunfei responded, took the golden stone, and thought about it for a moment, then took a deep breath, his eyes condensed, and his soul power instantly gathered in his right hand, and a ball of dazzling flames 'bang' There was a burning sound, enveloping the golden stone in it.
The flame held the ore and floated a few inches away from his palm. As the output of soul power increased, the flame burned more and more fiercely. The golden stone inside began to gradually shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye, and all impurities were burned and dissipated one by one. Gradually the golden essence separated out.
Kou Changkong nodded slightly with satisfaction. After a moment, he saw Bai Yunfei suddenly weaken the intensity of the flame, and the stone that had been tempered to only one-third of its original size had completely turned into golden flesh, rolling slowly in the fire.
"It's not enough, Yunfei, continue refining." Kou Changkong's faint voice came, Bai Yunfei nodded slightly with a solemn expression, strengthened his soul power again, and the golden body began to shrink again.
After a moment, Kou Changkong frowned slightly and reminded: "Too many! Yunfei, stop!"
"ah!"
Bai Yunfei was shocked and quickly withdrew his fire energy, but it was already too late. The golden body that was originally emitting bright golden light seemed to have exceeded its limit. It suddenly burned in the flames and turned into several pieces in the blink of an eye. A speck of black ash fell on his palm.
"Master..." Bai Yunfei felt disappointed and looked at Kou Changkong with shame.
"Haha, don't worry, it's normal to be unable to grasp the timing at the beginning." Kou Changkong shook his head slightly and comforted, "Experience can only be accumulated through countless failures. Don't think that you can succeed in one go, otherwise you will not be able to do better. Realize the key.”
Commander Kou waved his hand, and a pile of concentrated ore that was half a man's height appeared next to him. He casually picked up a piece of dark red ore and handed it to Bai Yunfei, saying: "Go on, I won't remind you this time, you can take your time." Slow down and master the intensity.”
"Yes, Master."
Bai Yunfei took the ore and started refining and melting it in earnest again...
fail.
fail.
fail…
After four or five hours, Bai Yunfei finally managed to extract the essence of a fire ore.
Looking at the half-fist-sized red flesh wrapped in flames in his palm, Bai Yunfei raised his left hand and wiped away some sweat on his forehead, feeling excited in his heart.
Kou Changkong smiled and nodded, and said: "Well, that's good. Now let's start the second step. Yunfei, try to incorporate these three auxiliary materials..."
… …
For a whole day, Bai Yunfei tried to complete each step bit by bit under the guidance of Kou Changkong. He tried again and again and failed again and again. The various raw materials and concentrates alone were probably not less than a thousand kilograms.
Just the concentrate that Bai Yunfei destroyed on this day, if placed in a small sect or family outside, would be enough to drive its leader crazy...
Until nightfall, Bai Yunfei still hadn't completed the second step of 'mixing the plastic'. Every time he was unable to grasp the strength of the fire element when incorporating auxiliary materials, he either burned the materials or added the wrong amount.
"Bang!"
The flames dissipated, and the golden mass inside them disintegrated into bits of molten iron and scattered on the ground, making a slight 'sizzling' sound - it failed again.
"Huh, huh..." Bai Yunfei gasped for air, his forehead covered with sweat. The high concentration of energy throughout the day, the continuous consumption of soul power, and the constant failure to deal with it had already made him a little bit too much.
"Okay, Yunfei, that's it for today."
When Bai Yunfei wanted to reach out for the concentrate again, Kou Changkong's voice sounded next to him. He looked up at Kou Changkong and said, "Master, I want to try a few more times... maybe I can succeed next time. Already…”
Kou Changkong shook his head slightly: "Yunfei, you are a little too hasty. Your current state is not suitable for continued refining. That's it for today. Go back and think carefully, think calmly, and continue tomorrow."
Bai Yunfei was silent for a moment, looked at the concentrated ore next to him with some reluctance, and said dejectedly: "Yes, Master, the disciple will go back..."
…
Back at his residence, Bai Yunfei, who had been tired for the whole day, was not even in the mood for dinner. He lay on his bed and stared at the roof in a daze.
"Item refining, item refining... It's so difficult! I can't even do the simplest refining..." Bai Yunfei sighed in his heart. This weapon refining technique is really difficult to practice. In some places, it is difficult for the fire element to be refined. The detailed control of power and the restrictions on the expansion and release of soul power are simply outrageous. If converted into soul power point consumption, it is almost accurate to the level of half a soul power...
After being in a daze for a moment, Bai Yunfei gathered his thoughts and clenched his fists vigorously. The disappointment in his eyes gradually receded and he became persistent and determined.
"It's just the first day. If you give up now, you have really failed. Master is right, experience is accumulated through countless failures. As long as you work hard to accumulate experience, you will definitely succeed!"
No longer distracted, Bai Yunfei closed his eyes and began to 'play back' every episode of today in his mind bit by bit, every time he failed, where he failed to control it, every little detail, what it felt like when he succeeded, As well as the key points reminded by Kou Changkong, one by one appeared in my mind and was remembered - over and over again, over and over again...
… …
The next day, Bai Yunfei, under the guidance of Kou Changkong, started trying again and again.
Fail, continue.
Fail, continue.
Fail, continue…
Unknowingly, the whole day passed again, but he still did not complete the second step.
The third day.
The fourth day.
Day five.
…
It wasn't until the tenth day that Bai Yunfei finally achieved the final key point of the third step of 'condensation'...
Staring closely at the three-inch knife in his hand that had almost begun to shine with metallic luster, Bai Yunfei growled secretly in his heart: "The last change has happened. The strength of the fire refining is 70% of the previous one. Give me... success!" "
"Bang!"
There was a slight explosion, the flames turned into a heat wave and spread out, and a dark red knife fell into Bai Yunfei's hand.
"Great, it's done..." Bai Yunfei was overjoyed, but as soon as his joy rose, he was immediately shattered by a weak 'click' sound. A small crack on the three-inch knife gradually spread, and next In seconds, the knife broke into several pieces in front of Bai Yunfei's eyes.
“…”
A strong feeling of loss and unwillingness surged into his heart. Bai Yunfei clenched his right fist hard, and there was a soft "click" sound, and the broken knife was crushed into powder by him...
