"Xuan Xing, why did you buy so many materials? You can't really be relying on forging to earn jingshi, right?”Old Brother Qian said in surprise.
This was because Xuan Xing had just taken all the jingshi he had on him and then went to the cultivation shop where they were now and bought all the low-grade and middle-grade forging materials.
"What do you think?" Xuan Xing asked in return before burying his head and continuing to choose the materials he needed.
"Boss, calculate how much jingshi these materials will cost.”Xuan Xing felt that it was enough, so he asked the boss to settle the bill.
The owner of this shop was an old man, but one could tell at a glance that he was a shrewd person. His cultivation was at the late stage of the original level. Logically speaking, cultivators had a chance to adjust their appearance when they broke through to the original level, but the owner obviously did not do so. However, there were still many people with such strange tempers in the world of cultivation.
The old man's face was full of smiles. His shop's business wasn't very good, but two big customers came today and actually bought half a year's worth of sales. The customer was God, so the boss naturally gave Xuan Xing some discounts.
The boss carefully counted the pile of materials in front of him, then said to Xuan Xing with a smile,"Fellow Daoist, the materials you bought are worth eight hundred and sixteen pieces of high grade crystals. However, since you bought so many at once, I'll just give you eight hundred pieces of high grade crystals.”
Xuan Xing's heart skipped a beat when he heard the price. He only had a few dozen pieces of high-grade crystals on him. The reason why he came here to buy materials was because he had taken them from his mysterious elder brother. However, he only had less than eight hundred pieces of high-grade crystals on him.
In that case, he would truly be void of body runes, including his Old Brother Qian.
However, Xuan Xing didn't place too much importance on jingshi. He believed that with these materials, he could refine some relatively high-grade talismans. At that time, their value would at least multiply several times.
"Mhm, alright, that's it." Xuan Xing immediately took out the crystals from his storage ring. There were only 20 to 30 crystals left.
The boss looked at the sparkling crystals in front of him and couldn't stop smiling.
Old Brother Qian didn't show any reluctance when he saw Xuan Xing squander so many crystals.
Xuan Xing put all the materials into his storage ring and looked at the top grade materials in the shop reluctantly. He leaned over to Old Brother Qian and whispered,"Brother, is this all you have? Do you have any more? Give me some more. I'll definitely pay you back in the future, and I'll even pay you interest.”
"You brat, I already told you that I don't have any more, and you still didn't believe me. I bought two magic treasures a few days ago, so I only have these left. If I still have more, I'll definitely let you take them.”Old Brother Qian said gloomily.
Xuan Xing knew that his brother had run out of jingshi. People with high cultivation usually wouldn't value jingshi that were useless to them, especially for rogue cultivators. They didn't have any sect disciples, so these things were even less important to them.
Xuan Xing's heart was itching just by looking at those high-grade materials. He was passionate about forging artifacts. He was originally a grandmaster of forging artifacts, especially after he received the artifact refining manual from his mysterious master. It made him want to forge some high-grade magic treasures.
Every refining grandmaster desired to refine a peerless magical equipment. This was the pursuit of all refining experts, and Xuan Xing was no exception.
"Sigh, it's really hard not to get something good. Let's go, brother.”Xuan Xing had no choice but to call him out of the shop.
"Xuan Xing, how's your forging skill? "Don't waste these materials. It's 800 pieces of high-grade crystal stones. If I don't have them, I'll have to go…" Big Brother Qian grumbled, but he suddenly stopped.
"You'll know my forging level soon. Oh right, brother, you just said that you're going to lose jingshi.”Xuan Xing had noticed this earlier.
"Uh…nothing, nothing. Let's go. Shouldn't you find a place to refine artifacts? Let's go. There's an inn in front of us. There's a special quiet room there.”Old Brother Qian muttered. In the end, he started to urge Xuan Xing.
However, his words were really useful. Xuan Xing really wanted to refine magic treasures as soon as possible, so his attention quickly turned back to refining.
In the end, Xuan Xing rented two meditation rooms from that family for a fixed period of a month. As a result, the jingshi in Xuan Xing's ring was almost completely used up.
Xuan Xing walked into his room and poured the materials he had just bought onto the ground. He then buried his head in tidying up.
Old Brother Qian didn't go to his room but followed him in. He wanted to see what level of magic treasure Xuan Xing could forge with these extremely ordinary materials.
After a quarter of an hour, Xuan Xing finally finished adjusting the materials. There were nearly a thousand portions of all the materials added up, which should be enough to refine quite a number of magic weapons. As for the final effect and quantity, it would depend on his level of refining.
Xuan Xing placed a set of ordinary blacksmithing material, Dark Iron, in his hand and released his True Samadhi Fire, causing the Dark Iron to float above the True Samadhi Fire.
This was the first time Xuan Xing had used the True Samadhi Fire to refine a weapon. Therefore, the moment he released his True Samadhi Fire, Xuan Xing had noticed the difference in the flame.
His Samadhi Fire was actually faintly glowing with purple light, and this was something he had just discovered.
Usually, there was a small ball of Samadhi Fire floating beside his Nascent Soul. Since his Nascent Soul was light purple, the color of the Samadhi Fire looked a little purple. He thought that it was caused by the color of his Nascent Soul. It seemed that this was not the case at all. As for whether this flame was better or worse than the real Samadhi Fire, it was still unclear.
Old Brother Qian watched as Xuan Xing started to forge. He felt that he had nothing to do. He only wanted to see the results of the forging process. He didn't care about the forging process at all. Refining weapons and alchemy were his biggest headache. Refining weapons and alchemy required one's talent and comprehension. He really didn't have any talent in this aspect.
However, he was also worried about Xuan Xing's refining skills, so he simply grabbed a random set of materials and released his True Samadhi Fire to refine.
He knew his own cultivation, so he should be able to refine some simple magic treasures.
After a while, there was a sudden " bang ", followed by another " bang ".
"Brother, what are you doing? You can even explode when refining weapons?" Xuan Xing stared at Old Brother Qian, whose daoist robe was tattered, in disbelief.
"You still dare to talk about me? Didn't you also explode?”Old Brother Qian's face turned red as he spoke. In the end, he even started to refute Xuan Xing.
" Uh…" Xuan Xing was speechless. If he hadn't disturbed him, would he have exploded?
Xuan Xing finally understood what Old Brother Qian meant when he said he knew nothing about forging.
For cultivators, refining weapons and pills were things that they had to master. Even if they didn't have any achievements in this area, refining some simple pills and magic treasures wouldn't be a problem.
Although he didn't know the exact cultivation level of this old brother, it was impossible for such a situation to happen to anyone in the Leaving Aperture realm in the cultivation world. However, this old brother had opened his eyes…
