The sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly.

Duan Xun returned to Aurora City by cloud, and happened to meet Shu Tianci who was returning by water from the other side.

Shu Tianci walked with a sword and said with a smile, "Senior brother, you are back too? Why don't you have a sword?"

These Sword Immortal Continent disciples were sent by Mu Shansheng to deal with evil spirits in various places. While accumulating good deeds, they also made Sword Immortal Continent famous.

"My sword is contaminated by ghost energy and cannot be used temporarily."

Duan Xun took out Sunfire Mysterious Flame Sword. The red sword body was now covered with dark green blood, and its spirituality was greatly reduced.

While the two were talking, they returned to the Sword-Seeking Hall.

Duan Xun asked the guard boy, "Where is Junior Brother Zhao? I'm asking him to help clean the sword."

Shu Tianci Looked inside and saw that none of my fellow disciples were there.

"Where are they?"

"The elder has taken people to see the 'Treasure Repair' opposite."

Zhao Ziming, Mu Shansheng is one of the twelve new generation disciples recruited from the Sword Immortal Continent.

In the former Sanbu Sword Formation, he did not fight, but was replaced by Shu Tianci.

Because Zhao Ziming prefers making swords than fighting swords.

Mu Shansheng is good at swordsmanship and is also famous in the world for sword-making Grandmaster. Although Sword Immortal Continent's disciples all know more or less about Sword-Forging Art, there are very few disciples who truly inherit the sword-making method. Counting Zhao Ziming, there are only five disciples who specialize in Sword-Forging Art.

"Treasure repair?"

The two looked at each other and set off for Tide-Note Studio.

Tide-Note Studio There is a graceful fairy standing outside.

She held a piece of gold silk in her hand, which read, "Our store has added a new 'treasure repair' service. Gold and jade utensils, protective feathers, pictures and books... everything Dharma Treasure can be discussed in detail. Color modification service is included."

"Changing the color and reshaping the appearance? Repairing Dharma Treasure, I can understand. After all, the refiner has this business. But changing the color? What is this for? Change the color of Dharma Treasure?" Shu Tianci thought secretly.

Duan Xun looked at the fairy and suddenly realized. "Is this a painting?"

He has bright eyes and white teeth, and a bright moon. He greets every guest with a smile, which is actually the "Chang'e in the Moon" drawn by Fu Henghua, acting as a welcome messenger.

"It's just a painting. That guy likes tinkering with these useless things."

Saying that, Shu Tianci pulled Duan Xun inside.

The tea room was crowded with people.

It was not convenient for the two of them to go in, so they asked around.

A few days ago, Fu Henghua, in addition to selecting exercises for people in the tea room, added another task of repairing Dharma Treasure. In the past few days, many people have heard about it, and they have brought Dharma Treasure to the door to seek repairs and renovations.

"You two, come here quickly."

Mu Shansheng Divine Sense greeted, the two looked around and saw Mu Shansheng and others behind the curtain.

In addition to Mu Shansheng, Zhao Ziming, Lord Guan and other Sword Immortal Continent people, Fu Danwei also sat in the inner room with the Fu Family people.

A mirror was placed in front of everyone to project the scene in the tea room.

There is a Earthen Ocarina in front of Fu Henghua. On his left side sits Fu Xuanxing, on his right side sits Xiaoyu, and opposite sits the owner of Earthen Ocarina, an elderly monk wearing a golden robe.

The monks have bright hair and their robes are embroidered with dragon and tiger patterns.

"This is Thunder-Calling Xun, which uses the earth energy of Kun Dao to trigger thunder. The treasure weapon, the third restriction has been completed. But because the sacrificial refining is intermittent, the last sacrificial refining and nourishing was three months ago?"

Jade Tiger Wanderer nodded. "Not bad."

Fu Xuanxing asked out of curiosity, "With my senior's cultivation, why not refine this thing into a spiritual weapon?"

Fu Henghua put Earthen Ocarina back on the tray and secretly ordered Zhang Ruyi to prepare the materials.

He smiled and said, "If I remember correctly, the teacher's Dharma Treasure is the relic of the master's wife, right?"

"You kid, you still remember."

Jade Tiger Wanderer is a friend of Fu Danwei.

Fu Henghua has been tinkering with repairs on Dharma Treasure these days. Fu Danwei thought of his friend, so he asked him to come over and help Fu Henghua. Because Jade Tiger Wanderer once taught Fu Henghua Feng Shui, Fu Henghua called him "teacher".

After some pleasantries, Jade Tiger Wanderer asked if it could be repaired.

Earthen Ocarina has six holes, and there is a pair of lifelike flying wings Phoenix Diagram on its belly. But now there are several cracks all over Phoenix Diagram, and the Earthen Ocarina three holes are broken.

"Teacher sank this object into the wind Water Spirit pulse to slow down the speed of the treasure's spiritual decay. It is also kept and maintained properly on daily basis, and the degree of damage is not large. There are only a few cracks in the belly and Phoenix Diagram damage. But teacher... are you sure you only need to repair it and not re-refining it?"

"Just repair it. Repair it as it is, including the Phoenix Diagram above."

This is the hardest part.

He has sought out several craftsmen, but there are not many who are proficient in making and repairing the musical instrument Dharma Treasure. The Phoenix Diagram on the belly of Earthen Ocarina is so mysterious that many craftsmen are not sure how to repair it properly.

Only three weapon masters were willing to try.

The asking price for the first opening is too high.

Not long after the second one agreed, he went crazy and died.

The third personality quirk is that every time a Dharma Treasure is repaired, the Dharma Treasure must be upgraded, and his signature is required to be left on the Dharma Treasure. This move is something Jade Tiger Wanderer will never tolerate.

Fu Danwei originally planned to ask Duan Sijing to come forward and help him repair Earthen Ocarina.

But letting Jie Xian do it would be overkill. Jade Tiger Wanderer refused to let Fu Danwei waste his favor and face, so he kept refusing. Until this time, Fu Danwei pushed Fu Henghua out.

Thinking of the master-disciple relationship between himself and Fu Henghua, Jade Tiger Wanderer reluctantly took Earthen Ocarina out of Spirit Vein again.

"Are you sure you want to restore it to its original appearance?"

"Yes. Can it be done?"

Fu Henghua pinched his fingers and calculated. "One hour is enough. But including the preparation time, it will take three hours. The teacher will go to the inner room to have tea with his grandfather first, and then he can recover in the afternoon."

He asked Jade Tiger Wanderer to go to the inner room.

Mu Shansheng looked away from the mirror and said to Duan Xun, "Your sword is stained? Go to him and ask him to clean it for you."

"He can also clean swords?"

"Not only are they good at cleaning swords, they are also good at blessing them. Although they are much worse than their masters, these two boys have some skills that will be helpful for your flying swords."

Duan Xun followed the teacher's orders and walked to the tea room.

But now there are new guests sitting in.

What the man wants to repair is a volume of "Taiji Bagua Diagram".

Picture scrolls and books such as Dharma Treasure are also relatively common in the spiritual world.

Fu Henghua looked at the fine brushwork on it and suddenly smiled, "Senior Duan's early works?"

"This is Senior Duan's masterpiece. I bought it from Stone Zither Trading House. Last month, I had a fight with a swordsman, and this picture was seriously damaged. The mind-sacrifice warm-up is too slow, so I'm looking for a quick fix."

Taiji Diagram In the center, there is a red sword light flowing straight, cutting off the yin and yang.

"It's even easier for you."

Fu Henghua turned around and saw various tools placed on the cabinet.

He took out one of the sets of painting equipment, and took out a water bottle and put Earthen Ocarina inside.

With a few taps, Shuicheng begins to vibrate on its own, cleaning the impurities and grease on the surface of Earthen Ocarina.

While Earthen Ocarina was being cleaned, Fu Henghua set about redrawing Taiji Diagram.

The most important thing about Dharma Treasure in the picture scroll category is the aura of the soul. When Fu Henghua captures the aura and repairs it, a wisp of Primordial Taiji Qi circulates on the picture surface, and with the three-color Spirit Essence Pigments of black and gold, it breathes the yin and yang again. The sword marks on it are forcibly refined, and the cracks heal on their own.

"It's done."

Let the customer go down and pay.

Fu Henghua proceeds to take out Earthen Ocarina.

After wiping, place another gold hand basin and ask Xiaoyu to pour the purified water and nectar into it.

Three Radiance Spirit Water is injected drop by drop, Fu Henghua is pinched and chanted, and the Phoenix Diagram on the surface of Earthen Ocarina is falling away little by little.

Jade Tiger Wanderer was shocked when he saw this scene and stood up suddenly.

Fu Danwei quickly comforted and persuaded him, and he reluctantly sat down, but he stared at Myriad-Form Exquisite Mirror, guarding against Fu Henghua's mistake.

When Phoenix Diagram is completely separated, Fu Henghua hands Earthen Ocarina to Fu Xuanxing.

"You have to fix this thing."

Fu Xuanxing looked at the craftsmanship and materials. "This material is difficult to get, it is a special fire clay from the volcanic land. It is refined by the fire of the earth's lungs."

"I've asked people to find the corresponding materials. You first need to figure out how to repair it."

After Fu Henghua finished speaking, he concentrated on studying Phoenix Diagram floating on the water.

The most troublesome thing about Earthen Ocarina is the "Phoenix Diagram" on Earthen Ocarina's belly.

Phoenix Biyi, Qinse and Ming.

Two Phoenix symbolize Jade Tiger Wanderer and his wife.

Fu Henghua When I was a child, I heard my father mention that this "Thunder-Calling Xun" was a token of love between the two of them.

To repair it, you need to find the same materials and retain the memory of the teacher.

Fu Henghua Compare the colors carefully.

"The red part, the phoenix feather part, should be made of volcanic mud mixed with flint, and then mixed with Danyang grass made of Spirit Essence Pigments."

"The golden part is made from yellow cypress bark."

"And the black part..."

Fu Henghua searches for the corresponding Spirit Essence Pigments one by one, and uses the black ring to summon Zhang Ruyi to prepare the corresponding items.

"Good brother."

Duan Xun At this time, he squeezed in front of another person and entered the tea room.

He hid Divine Sense and put Sunfire Mysterious Flame Sword on the table.

"This sword..."

"It's sword cleaning again, right? You guys have been asking me to clean your swords every day these days. Can't you pay attention to yourselves?"

Fu Henghua took it over and picked up a clay pot from the ground. He smeared the strange colorful paint inside on the Danyang sword.

Duan Xun felt sorry for Feijian and almost cried out.

After the application was completed, Fu Henghua handed it over to Xiaoyu for cleaning.

And he continued to study Phoenix Diagram on Earthen Ocarina and copied the structure of the drawing.

Duan Xun Seeing Xiaoyu washing his sword skillfully, he couldn't help but ask, "Are some of my fellow disciples here too these days?"

"Here we go, same question, Ghost Blood Sword. When you use the sword, can't you use your own Sword Qi to protect the flying sword?"

"It's not that we don't take care of it, it's that there are too many ghosts and monsters. There are always some troublesome monsters, and it's too late to use Sword Qi to protect Feijian."

After Xiaoyu has finished cleaning, hand it to Fu Xuanxing again.

Fu Xuanxing grabbed the flying sword, and Separation Flame lit the flying sword with a whoosh.

In the inner room, Mu Shansheng squinted when he saw this scene.

"After reading it several times, I'm finally sure. That thing...Fenglai, do you plan to let him find Southern Bright Li Fire Sword in the future?"

Fu Danwei shook his head.

Where Southern Bright Li Fire Sword is, my son only had a rough guess at that time. It would be too unrealistic for Fu Xuanxing to search for the illusory sword.

"It's all up to chance."

Southern Bright Li Fire Sword Scabbard is best at warming and maintaining swords. With Fu Xuanxing taking action, the sword was quickly cleaned.

Finally, Fu Xuanxing handed the sword to Fu Henghua.

Fu Henghua took out a golden Spirit Essence Pigments and painted on the front and back of the sword.

"Wait a minute - the sword has been cleaned."

"It's finished. But the one in your house..."

People talk a lot, so Fu Henghua couldn't mention Mu Shansheng's identity, so he kept talking.

"He paid and asked me to process it for you and draw a spell to protect against ghosts."

The pen moved Dragon Serpent, and soon a ghostly drawing symbol appeared on the sword body.

When Fu Henghua applies another color, the pattern will automatically disappear.

"This talisman restrains ghosts. Next time you come, you don't need to wash your sword. But this talisman can only last for one month. One Moon Empress. If you need it, come back to calligraphy and painting."

This is the new direction Fu Henghua is looking for for Color Alchemist.

Spirit Essence Pigments itself is a material used for cultivation. The pictures on the utensils will have some special functions.

Theoretically, both cinnabar and spiritual ink are Spirit Essence Pigments.

Subjugate demons, control the five elements of wind and thunder...

Use different colors to add different functions to Dharma Treasure.

This is the original intention of Dharma Treasure dyeing and contouring.

Behind Duan Xun, the next customer asked to change the color of his orb.

He took out a pitch black bead and asked Fu Henghua to change it to azure color.

This is a serious work of contouring. Fu Henghua solved it in twos and twos, and used the cyan color on the surface to give this Dharma Treasure a brand new spell "Azure Yi Everlasting Spring Sweet-Rain Curse".

When fighting, Dharma Treasure will automatically collect the energy of Wood Spirit between heaven and earth to heal its owner.

The guests thanked them, paid and left.

But when he left Tide-Note Studio, he rushed to Stone Zither Trading House and handed the green orb to the weapon refiner of the trading company.

In the past few days, several weapon refiners in the city have received the news and began to think about the Fu Henghua technology.

For a weapon refiner, it's very simple.

It's just a matter of adding a picture or changing the color after the refining is completed.

But it can give Dharma Treasure one more function.

Obviously, the grade and price of Dharma Treasure can be improved.

"This set of techniques is not difficult. The difficulty lies in our mastery of the talismans and spells. However, we can also leave it to others, or use ready-made drawings."

Technique is not the difficulty of "Adornment-Infused Treasurecraft".

The problem is that except for painting painters, other monks in the weapon refining industry will not prepare much of such unsophisticated weapon-refining materials as Spirit Essence Pigments.

At present, all the colors of Baiqiang Waters are supplied to Four Scenery Tower. Where is the excess Spirit Essence Pigments?

There are Fu Family people running around, sending all kinds of materials to Zhang Ruyi within an hour, and she quickly refines them into Spirit Essence Pigments for Fu Henghua to repair Phoenix Diagram.

After checking the paint, Fu Henghua thought to himself: They are all made of inferior materials. Zhang Ruyi must have made them in a hurry and only had time to make these. But originally, the material of Phoenix Diagram was not of high quality and was just enough for the purpose.

Fu Henghua It can be seen that the teacher's wife, whom she has never met before, is definitely a master of painting. Phoenix Diagram may have mixed the colors herself for fun during her free time in the crater.

Under her action, "Phoenix Diagram" itself contains the Dharma Treasure function. Injecting real energy into Phoenix Diagram can summon a pair of Phoenix to defend against enemies.

Following his own draft, Fu Henghua held up the painting tray, mixed various paints and then carefully repaired Phoenix Diagram on the water.

The water rippled, and Phoenix Diagram swayed with it. Jade Tiger Wanderer was troubled, fearing that Fu Henghua would be broken in one stroke, and Phoenix Diagram would be broken.

Fu Danwei smiled and said, "Don't worry, this guy doesn't have many skills, he is only suitable for this kind of delicate work."

Jade Tiger Wanderer recalled the gadgets in the Langhuan Hall and felt relieved unconsciously.

That's right, this cheap student likes to do these little crafts the most.

Painting on water is easier than painting in the clouds.

Fu Henghua is calm and not affected by the outside world at all.

Phoenix Diagram was repaired easily.

He had completed the repairs here, and Fu Xuanxing had already repaired Earthen Ocarina over there. He used the same source of spiritual soil to restore the damaged areas and polished them again.

Finally, the Fu Henghua method re-attaches "Phoenix Diagram" to Earthen Ocarina.

When everything was done, Jade Tiger Wanderer rushed out of the inner room.

Looking at the artifacts that looked like they were made eight hundred years ago, Jade Tiger Wanderer couldn't help but feel excited.

"Okay--Heng Hua, thanks to you this time."

Jade Tiger Wanderer held Earthen Ocarina and blew it carefully a few times.

The clear and joyful voice of Phoenix echoed in the room, and the shadow of Phoenix surrounded Rogue Person.

Flying together, just like myself and my wife before.

Thinking of his deceased wife, Rogue Person sighed and took Earthen Ocarina into Qiankun Ring.

Then, he took out a book and handed it to Fu Henghua.

"I taught you for a short period of time and only taught you some superficial knowledge. This is my summary of thousands of years of Feng Shui. You can learn from it."

Jade Tiger Wanderer didn't stay long. He said hello to Fu Danwei and then left.

Another person trapped in love.

Fu Henghua looked at the old man's hunched back with a heavy heart.

He understood that with this mentality, the teacher could not go any further.

As early as the moment when his "Master Wife" died, his Dao Path came to an abrupt end.

"Dao Path like this is something I don't want."

Fu Henghua shook his head and continued to wait for the guests in the tea room.

In addition to the utensils, a female cultivator sent a emerald-colored body-protecting garment and requested that it be dyed a bright red.

"You can even dye clothes here?"

"Natural."

Pigments need to be dispersed and dyes need to be dissolved.

But for Color Alchemist, the difference between the two is not big.

Color Alchemist practices color, blending various auras, materials, and treasures between heaven and earth into colors. It can be processed into pigments, and naturally it can also be processed into dyes in another way.

But Fu Henghua doesn't know much about clothes.

The only clothing method he knows how to make is the Fu Qixiang suit Cloud Weave.

After a brief inspection, Fu Henghua handed the clothes to Xiaoyu, who took them to the backyard to help with dyeing and repairing needles.

Waiting time, Fu Henghua started busy with new work again.

Repair Dharma Treasure, dyeing and blessing, this is an industry with a bright future.

Various monks came to visit one after another, some asked to carve a new pattern on the white jade bottle, some asked to change the shape of the hilt of the flying sword. Some wanted to re-create the style of their gold hairpin.

In short, Fu Henghua is the only one who can't think of it, and no customer dares to mention it.

There are some Dharma Treasure, which are all strange things that Fu Henghua has only seen in books but never actually encountered.

Fortunately, Fu Xuanxing has been interested in refining weapons since he was a child, so he is responsible for the recasting and refining of large items. Fu Henghua only needs to be responsible for the final processing and coloring techniques.
