Chapter 123 Sword Forging
As soon as Lan Tongtian's words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked. Because the gambling method he chose was too tricky. He knew that Huan Yin's cultivation was strange and had unexplainable opportunities, so he did not choose to gamble with Huan Yin on the progress of his cultivation. Instead, he found another way and chose to gamble on training. The Way of Utensils.
As the largest immortal cultivating sect in Yangzhou, Yijianfeng specializes in swordsmanship and is naturally very interested in making swords. That's why Yijian Peak holds a weapon master selection test every ten years. This selection test is actually a way for Yijian Peak to promote outstanding juniors in the sect's weapon refining skills.
You know, looking at the entire land of Jiuzhou, Yijianfeng is arrogant enough to Jianyidao. The art of weapon refining at Yijian Peak is unparalleled in the world, so the selection test for weapon masters here is far more stringent than other places. Those who can pass it are enough to be admitted in some small sects. For the master.
It is said that since the founding of Yijian Peak, the youngest weapon master was only twenty years old. Moreover, this weapon master has become the myth of Yijian Peak and has long been of high status.
Now, Lan Tongtian actually wants Huan Yin to take the weapon master selection test two years later and succeed. This is simply impossible to accomplish. Because the art of weapon refining requires talent and accumulation, unlike cultivation, where you can achieve it if you have the opportunity. Two years later, Huan Yin was only about fifteen years old. Based on his experience, he was completely insufficient to become a weapon master.
What's more, the weapon master selection test is held at Yijian Peak. Huan Yin, a disciple of a small sect at the bottom of the sect, will be ostracized countless times whether he comes to Yijian Peak to study or take exams. In fact, this is what Lan Tongtian wants Huan Yin to understand, because Huan Yin's way cannot allow him to survive in the world of immortality.
Lan Yu looked at his grandfather anxiously and kept arguing about something, but her voice was so low that Huan Yin couldn't hear her clearly. Huan Yin knew how difficult the gambling method proposed by Lan Tongtian was, and he also knew that Lan Yu was arguing for himself at the moment.
Huan Yin didn't want to give up cultivating immortality, but he also didn't want to give up his Yu'er. Moreover, he believes that his way is not wrong!
Under the different looks of the Yijianfeng seniors, Huan Yin finally said: "Senior Lan, it's a deal!"
Huan Yin left, he left alone, without Lan Yu accompanying him. Lan Tongtian left Lan Yu at Tongtian Peak. In the past two years, Huan Yin might not be able to see Lan Yu again. If he fails to pass the selection test to become a weapon master in two years, I'm afraid he will never be able to see Lan Yu again in his life.
…
After Huan Yin returned to the sect, he told his master Duan Yun what he had encountered that day. He knew that he had made a bet with Lan Tongtian that was almost guaranteed to lose, but he still wanted to win, so he needed Duan Yun's help.
After Duan Yun listened to what Huan Yin said, he shook his head repeatedly: "Yin'er, you are too impulsive, too impulsive. What kind of person is Elder Lan of Tongtian Peak? How can you win a bet with him? Together with the weapon refining, It is profound and profound. I think that when I was a master, I was just an ordinary weapon master. It took more than thirty years of hard study to become a master. What's more, my master is Qi Jue. Master, his sword-making skills are far better than mine. Now, my master is just a mortal, and he is not worthy of the title of weapon master at all. And there is no other sect in my Wuliang sect who knows how to make swords. Do you want to make swords in two years? To achieve the name of a weapon master, this..."
"Master, if others can't do it, it doesn't mean that Yin'er can't do it either. I'm unique, and there are many. I believe in myself, and I hope Master can help me!" The word "give up" has never been in Huan Yin's dictionary.
Duan Yun looked at his apprentice and finally sighed: "Yin'er, if you are lucky enough to succeed this time, I hope you can remember that the principles that Elder Lan said are the key to cultivating immortality. "Yes, he is right."
Huan Yin shook his head: "Master, if he is right, I will abandon the master and you and join him. How is this possible?"
Duan Yun shook his head, turned around and pushed the door open and went out. It is true that he does not want Huan Yin to abandon him. If the apprentice he has brought out with so much pains turns to someone else, how heartbroken will he be? However, there was still one thing he didn't say, and that was, "No matter how great the truth is, it cannot be greater than the strength." With Lan Tongtian's strength, all they could choose was to surrender. Therefore, in fact, there was an unspoken answer deep in his heart, that is, Huan Yin should not come back today.
The next day, Huan Yin got up very early. From this day on, he was no longer responsible for the cooking of Jiange, and he almost never interfered with the chores of Jiange. Because from today on, he will put most of his energy into learning to make swords, and even the training that he has always cared about most will have to be sacrificed.
Duan Yun stood on the platform of the sword pavilion and said to Huan Yin seriously: "Yin'er, since you want to become a weapon master, you must know what a weapon master is. A weapon master is the person who cultivates immortality to me. An honorific title for those who can forge immortal weapons and magic weapons. Although monks like us can achieve supreme cultivation by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, there are still some heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the world, and the power they contain is no weaker than that of monks like us. . Some of these exotic treasures can be used directly, while others need to be artificially refined and forged before they can exert their power. The weapon master is the monk who can refine and forge them appropriately. "
"By studying the properties of materials, exploring the combination of materials and the control of the power of fire, weapon masters can fuse many materials together to exert incredible power. Such power is no worse than our cultivation power, which is why all cultivators crave for a powerful magic weapon, because magic weapons can greatly enhance the combat power of cultivators."
"However, the path of refining weapons is extremely complex and varied. For the selection of materials, the combination of materials, the proportion of materials used and the control of the power of fire, even if there is a slight bias, a peerless magic weapon may become a pile of scrap copper and iron. Moreover, the number of materials on the land of Jiuzhou is probably no less than tens of millions. It can be imagined that the changes contained in the path of refining weapons are almost endless!"
"Our Jiange lineage focuses on the way of refining weapons. The sword-making in the book is also the path taken by Yijianfeng. Yin'er, if you want to become a weapon master and pass the selection test of Yijianfeng, you must do three things from today. "
"First, continue to study the sword-making chapter of "Wulian Sword". Although my Jiange lineage is far less powerful than Yijianfeng, the sword-making method passed down by our ancestor Wuliang Venerable is definitely not comparable to the sword-making method of Yijianfeng. Even though my Jiange has not carried forward the sword-making method of our ancestors for so many years, you are very special. If you continue to study "Wulian Sword", maybe you can retrace your ancestor's path. If so, let alone becoming a weapon master at the age of fifteen, it would be no problem to become a weapon immortal in the future! "
"Second, you must continue to read various classics and study and memorize the many materials on the land of Jiuzhou. You must know that materials are The fundamentals of sword-making, if you don't even know the properties and uses of the materials, there is no point in talking about sword-making. Although you are familiar with the sword-making materials in the platform pillars, the contents are like a drop in the ocean for sword-making. If you want to become a weapon master, it is far from enough to only know the materials on it. "
"A good weapon master will definitely know hundreds of thousands of sword-making materials. Moreover, after reaching the realm of weapon master, as long as you have a broad enough knowledge of the materials and a deep enough understanding of the properties of the materials, you can even reach an incredible realm called "understanding the materials." "
"The so-called "understanding the materials" means that although you have never seen the materials in front of you, you can immediately understand the properties of the materials through observation and understanding, and can use them perfectly. If you really reach this level, At this level, the name of the material is no longer important. What matters is that you can use it. There is no material in the world that you cannot control! "
"Third, from today on, you must learn sword-making from me every day. Sword-making combines the control of materials and the control of flames. As for the control of materials, I have already told you a lot. But you know very little about the control of flames. "
"In fact, in terms of the way of sword-making, the control of flames is as important and complex as the control of materials. Because there are many kinds of flame power, whether it is earth fire, sky fire, furnace fire, cultivation fire, or even the Yin Luo ghost fire of hell, they can all be used to forge swords. These flames have different properties, and the control and use of them are different, and the swords they form are also different. "
"If the power of the flame is insufficient, the sword cannot be formed. If the power of the flame is excessive, the sword will be destroyed. As a mortal now, I can only use the furnace fire. However, if you want to become a weapon master, it is far from enough to just know the furnace fire, so you have to try more flames yourself, and I can also give you some pointers based on my past experience. "
"Have you remembered what I said, Yin'er?" Duan Yun's words were as smooth as flowing water. It can be seen that if he really has cultivation, he is probably not just an ordinary weapon master as he said.
Huan Yin nodded and said, "I have remembered it."
"Okay, I will give you one year in the sect. This year, you must do everything you can to improve yourself and count as much as you can learn in Jiange. After a year, I will ask you to study at Yijianfeng. That is where you will take the test, where you can learn more and experience more setbacks and hardships. "
"As for whether you can succeed in the end, Yin'er, it depends on your efforts, especially in the year at Yijianfeng, although you may encounter a lot of exclusion and suppression, but if you can stand up and walk out, your hope of success will be much greater! "
"Disciple will definitely live up to the expectations of the master! "Huan Yin shouted, as if declaring war on Lan Tongtian on Tongtian Peak!
