Chapter 23: 10% Power Increase

At this time, Li Hanxue had completely sunk into the world of weapon refining, almost forgetting himself.

"The fourth step of weapon refining is to draw the energy circuit so that the weapon pulse and the energy circuit are in sync."

Li Hanxue wiped the sweat from the corners of his eyes. Originally, the ninth level of the Duanwu Realm could control his body temperature, and he would not sweat even if he stayed in the steamer. However, at this time, Li Hanxue, who was a warrior, was sweating profusely and kept wiping his sweat. It can be seen how much mental and physical burden weapon refining puts on warriors.

Li Hanxue stretched out his index finger and used his mental power to sense the energy circuit in the Mochi Knife. As the masked warrior said, the energy circuit in this Mochi Knife is extremely simple, all straight lines. But because Li Hanxue added the fire vine orchid and added the fire attribute, it became extremely dangerous when drawing the circuit.

As long as there is a slight mistake, the two circuits touch each other, the attributes are not harmonious, and the Mochi Knife will be directly shattered and burned to ashes, and Li Hanxue's efforts of more than ten hours will all go to waste.

Lin Xuanxuan clenched her fists in front of her chest and stared at Li Hanxue. From the serious look on his face, she understood that the weapon refining might have reached a critical juncture.

Li Hanxue's heart was also lifted. The martial arts true energy on her index finger condensed into a needle-like shape, pierced into the embryo of the ink-toothed knife, and carefully outlined the energy circuit.

Another three hours passed, and Li Hanxue had not completed the outline of the energy circuit.

Because the process was too long, many warriors who were watching left one after another. By late at night, only Li Hanxue, Lin Xuanxuan, Chen Zhi and the masked warrior were left in the weapon refining workshop.

At this time, Li Hanxue had only completed half of the outline of the energy circuit. Although the progress was slow, there was no mistake in the middle.

The masked warrior smiled at Chen Zhi and said, "Do you think this boy can succeed?"

Chen Zhi said seriously, "This kid does have some talent, I admit that. But it is difficult for me to draw the energy circuit without any mistakes. The two circuits in this black tooth knife intersect with each other, and it is very difficult to avoid mistakes. Once a mistake occurs, the black tooth knife will immediately become waste. So this kid is definitely hopeless."

The masked warrior turned his head and said nothing. He stood there like a piece of wood, looking at Li Hanxue, but the expectation in his eyes became stronger and stronger.

A long day passed, and at noon the next day, a large number of warriors gathered in the weapon refining workshop again.

"Chen Gongfeng, it's been so long, the refining must have failed. This kid is really stubborn, he still refuses to admit defeat after a day and a night."

"It's no use trying to hold on. If persistence alone can lead to success, we would have all become weapon refiners long ago."

"Chen Gongfeng, this kid looks like he's about to collapse, it's obvious that his aptitude is not good. Please help me look at my kid and test his aptitude for me."

"All of you shut up."

As time passed, Chen Zhi's face became uglier and uglier. He could clearly sense that the energy circuit in the Mochi Knife had been successfully mapped out by 90%.

"Is my reputation really going to be ruined by this kid?" Chen Zhi's eyes were ruthless, "No, I have to do something. If he really succeeds in refining, where can I put my face?"

Chen Zhi had a sky-breaking knife hidden in his sleeves, which was also a fourth-level Xuanbing. As long as it was stimulated with martial arts true energy, its speed would be unparalleled. Any warrior below the third level would surely die. Even if a fourth-level warrior is prepared, he will be seriously injured.

This air-breaking knife penetrates Li Hanxue's body and hits the black-toothed knife, which will inevitably cause a big explosion. At that time, Chen Zhi only needs to say that Li Hanxue failed to refine the weapon, the weapon exploded and he died, and everything can be revealed, and no one dares to say anything.

Chen Zhi's expression became fierce, and his cuffs began to tremble faintly, and a murderous aura was brewing. Chen Zhi was about to take action, but the masked warrior suddenly looked at Chen Zhi and glared at him fiercely. When Chen Zhi's eyes touched the masked warrior's gaze, he suddenly felt cold all over, as if falling into an ice cave.

That was the deterrence of the superior to the inferior. Only warriors who have crossed a great realm would have such substantial oppression on him.

Chen Zhi was immediately horrified, and his hands began to tremble involuntarily: "Damn it, this man is actually a Xuanwu! He has seen through me before I made a move. If I force my move, I am afraid my life will be in danger. I didn't expect this kid to be so powerful and to be protected by a Xuanwu."

Chen Zhi gritted his teeth in hatred, but he didn't dare to move. If he dared to kill Li Hanxue by force, he would probably be killed by the masked warrior before he could make a move. Chen Zhi had no choice but to stay put.

Another hour passed, and Li Hanxue finished drawing the last stroke of the energy circuit, and his heart was finally at ease. A trace of joy appeared on his face, and he breathed a long sigh of relief: "Finally completed."

"Is it true? A teenager in his teens actually refined a fourth-level Xuanbing! I don't believe it." Several warriors shouted.

Chen Zhi's face was grim, and he sneered, "You little brat, although you have completed the outline of the energy circuit, your Mochi Knife has not been tested by me yet. A fourth-level Xuanbing must have at least a 5% increase in strength. If you only make it look good without increasing the strength, then you have failed. All material costs will be compensated ten times the price."

"That's right, everyone can complete the model, you have to show us how much power is increased." A warrior who flattered Chen Zhi shouted.

"Give it to me, let me test how much power this knife can increase."

Lin Xuanxuan took the black tooth knife from Li Hanxue's hand and put it on a crystal stone slab. This stone slab is called the Questioning Stone. It is a special measuring instrument made by the Refining Sect. It can accurately measure the power increase of various Xuanbing. There are one hundred white marks on it, each representing a 1% power increase.

Lin Xuanxuan tightly grasped the black tooth knife in her hand and placed it on the stone slab nervously. Suddenly, the stone slab glowed with golden light.

The first mark flickered!

The second mark flickered!

The third mark flickered!

...

Every time a mark lit up, Chen Zhi's face became gloomier. When it came to the fifth mark, his face was already ashen, as ugly as it could be.

"The power increase is 5%. This boy actually did it!"

"No, it's not over yet! Look carefully."

The sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth and even tenth marks all emitted golden light.

Chen Zhi's face suddenly aged ten years: "What kind of monster is this? Judging from his technique, it is clearly his first time to refine a weapon. But why, not only did he successfully complete the refining of the fourth-level Xuanbing, but he also increased the power increase to 10%. How can this be true?"

Chen Zhi has been dealing with refining weapons for almost his entire life. He has refined no less than a thousand fourth-level Xuanbing weapons, of which less than ten have a power increase of 10%. He knows how harsh conditions are required to achieve a 10% power increase. However, this boy achieved such a terrible achievement in his first weapon refining. A sense of jealousy and powerlessness hit Chen Zhi's old heart like a torrent, and Chen Zhi seemed to have aged several years in an instant.

"At such a young age, he actually refined a fourth-level Xuanbing. What a little monster. It seems that Cangyun City has added another first-class weapon refiner." The masked warrior laughed.

Lin Xuanxuan was holding the Mo-toothed Knife, looking at Li Hanxue in shock.

Li Hanxue felt uncomfortable under Lin Xuanxuan's gaze, and coughed awkwardly, and Lin Xuanxuan suddenly came back to her senses.

"I don't believe that there will be a 10% increase!" Chen Zhi grabbed his hair and went a little crazy, trying to take the Mo-toothed Knife from Lin Xuanxuan's hand, but was intercepted by the masked warrior.

"This Mo-toothed Knife is far more than you think." At this time, the masked warrior stood up and took out two beast cores from somewhere. One of them was full of vitality, and it was a wood-attributed beast core at first glance. The other one exuded a strong breath of flame, which was a fire-attributed beast core.

"This Mo-toothed Knife was originally a relatively poor Xuanbing among the fourth-level Xuanbing, with a maximum of only 5% power increase. The reason why it is 10% is because it has dual attributes."
