Chapter 243: Fortune and Divine Mirror
"Then let's go and build this national treasure first."
Tianyu took the two jade slips and a smile appeared on his face.
He had long wanted to observe the cultivation methods of Shinto and the Way of Luck. Although he did not like being bound by power and could not use them much, he could still get some inspiration from them.
After all, it is a secret technique that can compete with the immortal way, and you will gain something if you comprehend it more.
It was a pity that tens of thousands of years ago, he had almost no friendship with the people of Moon God Palace, and the Moon God Palace had a very good reputation, and its disciples rarely used their power to bully others, so people like him would not come into conflict with them.
Who would have thought that the whole world would undergo such changes, which would allow him to come into contact with the Moon Palace.
However, by that time, the Moon God and the Blood God had already merged with the Tao, and he could only sigh that the Tao of Luck had disappeared in the fairy world.
However, I never thought that I would obtain the secret technique that I had been longing for in this way today, and it also came with the Shinto method.
It’s time and fate, who can tell?
"Senior, I will take you to see the weapon refining workshop I built."
Lin Qingshan found another opportunity to show off and approached Tianyu to show off.
"Weapon Refining Workshop?"
Tianyu glanced at Fang Chen. It was obvious that the name came from him, and just by listening to the name, he could tell what it was used for.
"Yes, it can be considered a variant of Xianju. In addition, Yuehua Xiancheng also has an alchemy workshop, a talisman workshop, a textile workshop, and a Tiangong workshop. They were all designed and named according to the city lord's opinion."
Lin Qingshan also boasted about the good things he had built.
Fang Chen nodded slightly to Tianyu who was looking at him.
Needless to say, the alchemy workshop was the first workshop built by Lin Qingshan and his disciples, and there were still many imperfections. However, in order to meet the needs of alchemy, they actually quantified the temperature, which was a huge change for the entire cultivation world.
With quantifiable temperature, the medicinal material refining temperature recorded in some alchemy recipes can be converted into precise temperature, thereby improving the success rate of alchemy.
Fang Chen knew a little about alchemy. The records of the temperature for refining medicinal materials were often roughly high temperature, medium temperature, low temperature, or obscure concepts such as low heat and high heat.
Many alchemists find it difficult to get started and are stuck at this step.
This reminded him of the recipes in his previous life, things like "right amount", "a little" and so on, which were all based on feelings and there were no precise quantities.
The equipment refining workshop has a similar configuration. Its biggest feature is that the temperature of the flame can be controlled freely. Lin Qingshan was also enlightened by Fang Chen and decided to use molds for the shaping step.
In fact, the use of molds when casting objects in the mortal world is very common, but the weapon refiners in the world of cultivation are too proud to use such crude methods of mortals, and insist on shaping them themselves.
In Fang Chen's opinion, he is sick.
Although the finished product will indeed be of higher quality after being shaped by the refiner himself, this improvement will not change the situation at all when facing the immortal weapons in service.
There was nothing special about the talisman-making workshop. It was equipped with various formations and prohibitions that could relax the mind, allowing the talisman drawer to concentrate and increase the success rate.
In Fang Chen's idea, it would be best if the talisman-making workshop could print talismans by itself, but unfortunately Lin Qingshan has not yet developed an effective method.
Even so, Yuehua Fairy City's speed in producing talismans is much faster than that of other forces. These talismans are very popular in the Yueshen Market and have always been the best-selling item besides elixirs.
There is nothing special about the textile workshop and the Tiangong workshop. The former is used to process spiritual silk, while the latter is used to make molds for refining instruments, talisman paper and spiritual ink for drawing talismans, and the pre-treatment of various spiritual medicines, etc.
Nowadays, the scale of spiritual silkworm breeding is getting bigger and bigger. Several low-grade robes have been woven and are currently stored in the warehouse. When the number is sufficient, they will be uniformly equipped as immortal weapons.
After exchanging glances with Fang Chen, Tianyu followed Lin Qingshan with great interest to see the weapon refining workshop.
Fang Chen had nothing to do, so he just continued to meditate and practice.
Before the Demon Cultivator Alliance attacks, every bit of improvement in cultivation will be a plus. The incarnation far away in the Ghost Island is also racing against time to improve his cultivation.
Half a month passed in a flash.
"call--"
After exhaling a breath of foul air, Fang Chen opened his eyes and couldn't help but sigh: "Did it take a full half month to pierce the Tiantu acupoint this time?"
"This time, I asked Sister Yun Ni not to guide you to the purest spiritual energy, so that you can experience how slow it is to practice on your own. Next time, you won't complain about the speed of practice."
Zhu Yueyao spoke directly and told the truth.
"Why bother? I was just expressing my feelings casually before."
Fang Chen gave a bitter smile. He truly felt the slowness of his self-cultivation.
It takes fifteen days to open up one acupoint. There are twenty-one more acupoints on the Ren Meridian, and each acupoint is more difficult to open up than the previous one. All in all, it will probably take one or two years to reach the second level of foundation building.
The entire foundation-building period of cultivation would take at least several decades.
There was no way. He didn't have any elixirs suitable for foundation-building cultivators now. Even if Yue Yunni could guide him to the purest spiritual energy of the Moon Divine Art in the future, the speed of improving his cultivation would still not be very fast if he relied solely on hard work.
"Okay, I've played along with you this time, but you have to follow my instructions and assist him wholeheartedly."
Yue Yunni, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke and said to the capricious Zhu Yueyao.
"Don't worry, sister. Since I've promised, I will never break my promise."
Zhu Yueyao made a promise to Yue Yunni with a serious face, but Fang Chen was the only one who was confused.
What are these two people talking about?
What does it mean to assist yourself wholeheartedly?
Zhu Yueyao's original body, the Blood God Vine, has a symbiotic relationship with herself. Before Yue Yunni revived, it kept calling her "master".
Of course, she never called Fang Chen like that in front of outsiders.
"Fang Chen, you may think that Yue Yao is doing this for your own good, but let me ask you, did he ever encourage you to learn the Duoduo Tianyan Xifa, so that the cultivation world would collapse, and then take you to another world to venture into?"
Yue Yunni saw what Fang Chen was thinking and asked him with a smile.
"How does senior know?"
Fang Chen first glanced at Zhu Yueyao, and seeing that she was standing next to Yue Yunni like a good girl, he admitted it.
“What could she be hiding from me? That’s what she advised me when the Fairy World was invaded. You should know that she was the incarnation of the Sixth Heavenly Ancestor of the Saint Clan. If she really lost the protection of the Origin of the Heavenly Dao, she would definitely be discovered by the Sixth Heavenly Ancestor of the Saint Clan at the first moment.” Yue Yunni chuckled. Zhu Yueyao’s thoughts were easy to guess, and she was not good at hiding her emotions.
Maybe she can act cool in front of Tianyu, but she is still a little naive when facing Yue Yunni, who is very familiar with her.
"Sister, I've already told you that I have a way to avoid detection by the main body..."
Zhu Yueyao defended herself.
"I know you have good intentions, but all your abilities come from either me or the Sixth Heaven Ancestor. No matter what tricks you can think of, they can't be hidden from her eyes."
Yue Yunni shook her head. She once stood at the top of the fairy world and witnessed how difficult it was to deal with the nine saint ancestors.
With the help of the Moon God Palace, she gathered the luck of the fairy world in one, and also had the title of Moon Goddess. Her strength was even stronger than that of an ordinary Xu Yu saint. Because of this, she once faced a certain Heavenly Ancestor.
However, the other party deprived her of the ability to move with just a look.
If she hadn't left a backup plan in the Moon God Palace in advance, she would not have been able to come back.
Because of this, she was very aware of the horror of the Saint Clan's Heavenly Ancestor. No matter what methods Zhu Yueyao used, as long as her own cultivation level was not up to par, it would be difficult for her to escape from their control.
But Zhu Yueyao was obviously still not convinced.
"So, what does this have to do with her wholehearted support for me?"
Fang Chen agreed with Yue Yunni's opinion, but he did not comment on this matter. Instead, he got back to the point.
"You didn't listen to Yueyao's advice, so she got petty and didn't use her abilities to help you."
Yue Yunni glanced at Zhu Yueyao, and the other party also looked away guiltily.
"What ability?"
After hearing this, Fang Chen understood.
After Yue Yunni woke up, he could directly access the purest spiritual energy of the Moon God Palace, thereby increasing his cultivation speed.
In this case, Zhu Yueyao must have other abilities.
"Since you promised me, I will tell you my ability—"
"Boom boom boom!"
Before Zhu Yueyao could finish her words, there was a series of knocks on the door.
"Enter!"
There was no other way, Fang Chen could only arrange for someone to come in first.
It’s still Tianyu and Lin Qingshan.
The fact that both of them came in together only meant one thing, that the national treasure had been refined.
Sure enough, before Fang Chen could ask, Lin Qingshan couldn't wait to take out a black rectangle from his storage bag.
In terms of appearance, it is almost the same as the one they used for demonstration half a month ago, or in other words, there is no difference at all.
"Isn't this exactly the same as last time?"
Fang Chen blurted out.
Lin Qingshan also wanted to sell the pie, and when he heard Fang Chen say that, he smiled at him and lightly pointed at the screen. The black rectangle turned into a mirror in front of him.
The mirror floated in the air, rotated in place for a while, then recognized Fang Chen and rushed into his hands.
"Since it is a national treasure, its initial grade cannot be low. I refined it into a magic weapon, and it has two forms."
Tianyu on the side began to introduce.
"Thank you, Senior Tianyu."
Holding the small mirror, Fang Chen expressed his gratitude to Tianyu before he could take a closer look.
This is a magic weapon.
In today's world of cultivation, magic weapons are extremely valuable.
An ordinary magic weapon could be exchanged for more than a dozen golden branches and jade leaves - the main ingredients for making golden elixir that Fang Chen saw in the Star-Moon Sea.
In other words, it is worth tens of millions of spirit stones.
Of course, when one reaches the Jindan level, transactions will use medium-grade spirit stones.
One medium-grade spirit stone is worth one hundred low-grade spirit stones.
Converted to hundreds of thousands of mid-grade spirit stones.
At least the amount doesn't sound that big.
"You're welcome. I've benefited a lot from refining this magic weapon. Now it's yours. Why don't you give it a name?"
Tianyu waved his hands. He was not being modest but was telling the truth.
This magic weapon is related to both the way of the gods and the way of luck. During the process of refining it, he also had many ideas about the way of immortality.
"Let's just call it the Fortune Divine Mirror. It's simple and clear."
Fang Chen thought for a moment and made a decision.
Today’s first update is 3000 words, and there will be another update to come.
