Chapter 269: Re-refining the Broken Army Sword
"Master Ye actually rushed away all the one hundred and eight hidden apertures, wasn't he preparing to advance to the Seven Evil Realms?" Wan Chunliu and the others became more and more shocked.
The Seven Evil Realm martial artists who were less than twenty years old were simply terrifying.
"President, the scale is still climbing. ”
Yu Hu looked at the scale on the gas measuring stone pillar, and he was about to lose his words.
Wan Chunliu looked at it, and sure enough, as Yu Hu said, two hundred and seventeen, two hundred and eighteen......
"This ......"
Wan Chunliu and Wu Wenxian were numb, and they were able to break through other hidden tricks in addition to one hundred and eight hidden tricks, which they had only heard of in ancient books.
Wan Chunliu, Wu Wenxian and the others concentrated on refining the alchemy, after all, the news was closed, and they didn't know that Ye Chen had cultivated the Star Emperor's legacy technique "Na Qi Jue", and left the Star Emperor Tablet in the Yanwu Martial Academy, otherwise, he would not have been so shocked.
Soon, the scale stopped at two hundred and thirty.
It's not that Ye Chen's internal qi is exhausted, but because there are only two hundred and thirty scales on this gas measuring stone pillar.
"I passed. Ye Chen's tone was affirmative.
"Yes, Master Ye, you have passed the second level of assessment, and now you are a refining apprentice. ”
Wan Chun swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said.
Wu Wenxian watched from the side in a daze, when he left the Alchemist Guild, he thought that Ye Chen was just talking, but he didn't expect that only an hour later, Ye Chen would become an apprentice refiner, maybe he would become a real refiner in a while.
"There are really people in the world who can learn alchemy and refining weapons together, and I met one today. Wu Wenxian let out a long sigh.
"Master Ye, do you want to continue?"
Wan Chunliu asked.
"Of course. My goal is not to be an apprentice, but a true alchemist. Ye Chen said.
"Okay, Master Ye, please come with me. ”
Wan Chunliu led Ye Chen and the others to a refiner, where the burning stone fire was booming, and there was a large iron ingot next to it, as well as the corresponding refining tools.
"Master Ye, the third level is, within two hours, you need to refine an inferior weapon, if you can refine it, even if you pass. Wan Chunliu introduced.
"Wouldn't this be too simple?" Ye Chen frowned.
According to the records of the refining books, refining inferior weapons is only a little more difficult than ordinary blacksmiths to build agricultural tools, but the steps are basically the same. The red iron is first burned in a furnace, hammered into shape, and then repeated until it is formed. Each time it is formed, it enters the water once, and finally polishes and opens.
Warriors refine inferior weapons only because all the materials are tougher and require more power. As for the mastery of the subtleties, it is not so difficult.
Compared with alchemist apprentices, ordinary alchemist apprentices can learn refining tools and learn them for a year or two.
This is not a challenge for Ye Chen at all.
"What, it's too simple?" Wan Chunliu was speechless.
"Master Ye, the refining tool looks simple, but the subtleties are difficult to grasp, the strength of each hammer is different, and the forging degree of each part of the weapon is different, all of which affect the final formation of the weapon. For example, a sword, after some people refine it, it can be used for ten years or even longer, and it will not be damaged after ten thousand collisions, and some people will look very beautiful on the surface after refining it, but after using it for one year, it must be broken. Yu Hu explained on the side.
"Yes, after the weapon is formed, there are some impurities inside the weapon that are difficult for even the refiner to detect. Therefore, if a refiner wants to gain a good reputation, it is accumulated over many years. Du Dai then said.
After hearing this, Ye Chen was silent for a moment, and then said: "Is this okay, my broken army sword is a high-grade weapon, but it has been overused recently, and there are already cracks, I will repair it again, if the repair is completed, even if it is passed?"
Ye Chen said this, mainly because he didn't want to waste time, after all, after building ordinary weapons, he also planned to repair his broken army sword, so it was better to do it together.
"That's right......" Wan Chunliu pondered for a moment, "I see the extent of the damage to your broken sword." ”
Ye Chen took out the broken army sword and handed it over.
The blade of the sword exuded a sharp light, the back of the sword was smooth, and the tip of the sword was sharp, but if you looked closely, you could find that there were faint dark lines on the entire sword, like traces left after the evaporation of water droplets.
This is the dark wound left by the sword intent of the broken sword.
If you don't repair and maintain, you will definitely break off after using it dozens of times.
"Yes. Wan Chunliu nodded, and then persuaded, "But are you sure you want to refine this broken army sword again?" To be honest, this broken army sword of yours is extremely sharp, it was forged by a refining master about eighty times, and it has reached a very perfect state. If you don't get it right, you might break it on the spot. ”
"It's okay, when it's broken, I'll get another sword. Ye Chen didn't care.
"Okay, since you insist, let's refine the Broken Sword again. Wan Chunliu nodded.
"Master Yu, did you sell the blue water essence gold just now?"
Ye Chen said, and took out twenty spirit stones.
The Broken Army Sword is already a high-grade weapon, and the materials used naturally cannot be too inferior. The blue water essence gold that Yu Hu took out for him to identify just now has good ductility and can be forged more than a hundred times, which is the most suitable.
"Sell, sell. ”
After Yu Hu saw the twenty spirit stones, he nodded again and again, as if he was afraid that Ye Chen would regret it.
Blue water essence gold is worth a lot of money, but that's for the golden ticket. One or two blue water essence gold is worth one million gold, and a large piece in Yu Hu's hand is worth nearly one hundred million taels of gold.
But for more valuable spirit stones, twenty spirit stones were definitely not a lot, so Yu Hu was very happy.
Ye Chen's blue water and pure gold turned out to be calcined, and he did not use ordinary furnace fire to burn, but sacrificed lava fire to converge purple fire and expose the fire.
In the stone chamber, the temperature suddenly soared.
"Oops, I almost forgot, Master Ye has fire. ”
Wan Chunliu suddenly slapped his thigh, looking quite annoyed. Ye Chen has fire, and it is most suitable for refining weapons, even if the alchemy refining tools are carried out at the same time.
I was guided by Wu Wenxian just now, and I was preconceived, so I deliberately made things difficult for Ye Chen.
If he had remembered that Ye Chen had fire, he would not have made it difficult, but would have provided convenience from time to time.
"Thankfully, it's not too late. Wan Chunliu quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master Ye has a fire, maybe he can really refine his broken sword. Yu Hu and Du Dai said on the side.
In the stone chamber, the temperature of the fire soon approached 100 degrees. Fortunately, Wan Chunliu, Wu Wenxian and others are all martial artists of the Seven Evil Realms and can withstand it.
Liu Zhixi is a spiritual realm cultivator, and it is more difficult to persist.
After Wu Wenxian saw it, he stimulated his anger and protected Liu Zhixi.
The temperature is so high that you can imagine that the temperature in the center of the tinder is absolutely staggering.
Although the blue water essence gold was very hard, it was quickly burned red, and Ye Chen ignored it. After another moment, the blue water essence gold was burned into gold juice.
At the moment when the gold juice dripped, Ye Chen caught it with the Broken Army Sword, so that all the blue water essence gold gold juice dripped evenly on the Broken Army Sword.
Soon, the fist-sized blue water essence gold was all covered in the broken sword.
After that, Ye Chen used lava fire to burn the sword.
This time, without waiting for the broken sword to begin to melt, Ye Chen picked up the stone hammer on the side and began to thrash.
There is also blue water essence gold dissolved on it, and the broken army sword has become very thick, so Ye Chen constantly folds and forges the broken army sword, and every time it is folded and forged, it is a refining. It can effectively reduce the impurities in the material, so that its composition tends to be uniform, the structure tends to be dense, the grain is refined, and the performance of the weapon is improved.
If it is forged more than thirty times, it is considered an inferior weapon. More than 60 times can become a medium weapon, if more than 80 times, it is a high weapon.
Ye Chen's broken sword had been forged eighty times before, and it was already a high-grade weapon.
So now, every time Ye Chen beats it, it is equivalent to forging directly from the basis of eighty forgings.
