It took him a while to calm down, and then a huge question arose in his mind, "Obviously Steward Xie said that Soul Severing Sword and Alchemy Hall's old monsters can't be defeated. Obviously, this Soul-Slaying Sword is extremely difficult to deal with. Even if the iron spirit can deal with the remnants of low-grade blood weapons, there is no reason to be so successful."
Speaking of which, Xu Yi can't figure out the reason, but it's normal. Except for Elder Song, Grand Artificer can get a glimpse of the truth from the secret books. Where can others find out.
It turns out that the decomposition ability of this iron spirit is different from that of the refiner's decomposition of residual soldiers.
To dismantle the remaining soldiers, the refiner needs to peel off the cocoons and skillfully use the knowledge of the balance of the five elements to peel off the raw metal bit by bit.
The five elements contained in the residual soldier are entangled in one place, forming countless knots of the five elements. The essence of the remnant soldier is to untie the knots one by one, and use Lihuo to burn away the impurities, leaving only the raw metal.
However, the iron spirit's method of breaking down the remaining soldiers is completely a violent extraction method, extracting the raw metal materials from small lumps. The only thing that affects the extraction speed of the iron spirit is the grade of the remaining soldiers.
However, because the higher the grade, the better the balance of the five elements, and the tighter the five elements are entangled, the more difficult it is to extract.
Boiled down to this Soul Severing Sword, the two extraction routines naturally produce different decomposition results.
This Soul Severing Sword was randomly refined by Young Master Soul Severing at a level close to that of Menial Worker. The five elements inside are barely balanced, but the use of balance is completely chaotic.
When someone else refines a blood weapon, there is always a way to solve the knots formed by the five elements inside. Grand Artificer, who is knowledgeable, can always find a way to break it and quickly complete the decomposition.
As for Young Master Soul Severing, it is completely a matter of luck, relying on heaven, and not playing cards according to routines. The five-element knots inside the forged Soul Severing Sword are messy and cannot be traced. Even if a group of Grand Artificers get this Soul Severing Sword, they will have nowhere to start.
On the other hand, Tie Jing doesn't care about the five-element knots and directly extracts the Three Yin Wood raw material. Moreover, because the five-element entanglement inside Soul Severing Sword is extremely weak, the restraint on the Three Yin Wood raw material is minimal, which results in the astonishing decomposition speed of Tie Jing.
Xu Yi didn't know the inside story, but didn't bother to study it in detail, so he started the trial.
In the past few days, every night before going to bed, he would read through the three weapon refining manuals he got from the Alchemy Hall.
With an amazing memory, he has memorized the three secret books by heart. What is missing is the hands-on operation and detailed understanding.
Before coming to the Guangwu Pavilion, he visited many shopping malls and spent a lot of money to purchase the best-quality weapon-refining accessories that are most suitable for novices to exercise.
In addition, he even spent a lot of money to purchase Grain Abstinence Pill, enough for one month, and Essence Restoration Pill to replenish energy.
Including the cost of getting this Three Yin Wood out of the Alchemy Hall, he has spent nearly 30,000 gold on refining these Three Yin Wood.
After the battle, Black Dragon Hall had more than 28,000 gold in his pocket at the peak. Today he extorted another 11,000 gold from the Yun family. Excluding the two thousand gold given to Gao Junmo, he had a total of more than 37,000 gold in his pocket.
In the past few days, more than four thousand gold was spent on purchasing tonics for Qiu Wa, of which two thousand gold was "sponsored" by Young Master Yun.
When you leave home again, give Yuan Qinghua to purchase Precious Medicine on your behalf. Ask about the three thousand gold for the whereabouts of the spiritual soil. Xu Yi should still have thirty thousand gold in hand.
However, just to test the crazy idea in his heart, just to get the rare Three Yin Wood, he now only has more than 600 gold in his pocket.
Such a price is not small.
Since the cost is huge, how can Xu Yi be willing to waste time.
After taking one Grain Abstinence Pill, a feeling of coolness rose in my belly. I took out several large bags of supplementary materials that I had prepared earlier, as well as a bucket of blood extracted from myself that I had prepared earlier. I collected the fragments of Three Yin Wood and put them on one side.
Immediately, he opened another furnace and adjusted it to the fire setting. In an instant, a cluster of blue flames jumped out and quickly filled the entire furnace mouth.
Xu Yi grabbed a few pieces of Three Yin Wood and a small amount of five elements of auxiliary materials, and put them into the furnace together. After a while, the Three Yin Wood and auxiliary materials in the furnace were automatically wrapped around each other and gathered into a red iron pellet the size of a chicken.
Immediately, Xu Yi extinguished the fire, extracted a small amount of blood, and poured it onto the iron pellets. In an instant, the refining room was filled with brilliant colors, and after a while, the color faded, and the color of the iron pellets became increasingly red.
After waiting for about a stick of incense, the color of the iron pellets did not change. Xu Yi grabbed the iron pellets, placed them at the mouth of the furnace, set up the gathering fire, picked up a small Forging Hammer from the forging frame of Zuo Jin, and started tempering.
One hammer, two hammers...
His perception was fully exposed, and every contact between Forging Hammer and Tiewan was clearly and accurately projected into the depths of his mind. Soon, Xu Yi felt different tremors, as many as dozens of them.
Having memorized the secret book, he already knew that this kind of tremor was a sign of the entanglement and combination of the five elements. Each combination was different, either in compliance with the law or contrary to the law.
The essence of training is to disintegrate unreasonable combinations and allocate reasonable combinations. When there are fewer unreasonable combinations and more reasonable combinations in the whole blood vessel, the forging will be completed.
The quality of blood vessels not only depends on the quality of the materials used, but also depends more on the level of the forging.
When there are fewer unreasonable combinations in a finished blood vessel, the better the quality of the blood vessel is. On the contrary, the worse the quality of the blood vessel is. If there are almost no unreasonable combinations, then it has reached the extreme, which is the legendary top-quality blood vessel.
However, the way of heaven always makes up for the deficiencies, and the best blood vessels are made against the will of nature, so they are rare.
On the contrary, when the unreasonable combination in a blood vessel even exceeds the reasonable combination, it becomes a useless weapon.
No, not long after, Xu Yi trained a useless weapon.
When he hit it with the ninety-third blow, the iron pellets that had been turned into pieces were forged into several pieces.
The failure of the training did not make Xu Yi feel the least bit decadent. He had been fully mentally prepared for the difficulty of refining the weapon this time.
The reason why you don't use all the three yin fragments in one trial is because you know that you will encounter the results before you countless times.
Exercising separately saves time, and also saves auxiliary materials and blood.
Gathering the pieces together and throwing them aside, he started the second trial.
This time, however, it lasted much longer than last time. It took a full 134 strokes of the hammer before the iron piece broke.
Obviously, although the previous exercise failed, he made great progress.
The third time, the fourth time...
It was not until the sixth exercise that the hammer fell nearly 300 times and the failure ended. Xu Yi stopped the exercise. He poured the fragments of the remaining soldiers that had gathered into small piles into another smelting furnace, brought out the fire, and put in the iron essence. Not long after, another pile of Three Yin Wood fragments appeared beside the furnace.
