Legend of the Transcendent

Chapter 65: Refining Tool Experience

Thanks to his experience with the Thunder Strike Dagger, Mi Xiaojing found it easy to handle this piece of Xuanjinmu. The Thunder Strike Dagger was not only used for attacking, but it was also incredibly sharp. Especially when infused with true qi, its sharpness was comparable to cutting through iron like mud, let alone repairing Xuanjinmu.

The wooden core of the Xuanjinmu had a diameter of about fifty centimeters. Mi Xiaojing used the Thunder Strike Dagger to repair it and cut out a sword blank. This magical sword he made was relatively large, about two and a half meters tall, much taller than him. However, he knew that as long as there were three Thunder Spirit Patterns, this magical sword could be manipulated with ease.

After the sword blank was formed, Mi Xiaojing began to carve the patterns on the sword body. These patterns had to be inlaid with gold thread. During the first carving, he demonstrated unparalleled talent. Each pattern was as delicate as a strand of hair, drawn out by the tip of the Thunder Strike Dagger. His hand was very stable, and the scratches were so fine that they were almost invisible. From the hilt to the tip of the sword, the complexity of the patterns was maddening.

But Mi Xiaojing enjoyed it. In one breath, he carved a Thunder Spirit Pattern that contained six Thunder Spirit Patterns. With his current level, he could not carve nine Thunder Spirit Patterns, even if he used a larger sword blank. His limit now was at most seven Thunder Spirit Patterns, but seven Thunder Spirit Patterns did not make a Thunder Spirit Pattern.

Generally, a Thunder Spirit Pattern was composed of three, six, nine, or twelve Thunder Spirit Patterns. One more or one less would not work. Therefore, this Thunder Spirit Pattern was composed of six Thunder Spirit Patterns.

It took Mi Xiaojing eight days to carve the Thunder Spirit Patterns. Of course, during this time, he also went to the Pill Room to refine many Spirit Pills. He did not forget to practice every day, but the time was relatively shortened. After all, he was in the Great Perfection of Qi Refining and temporarily unable to advance. Even if he spent more time practicing, it would be difficult for him to enter the Foundation Establishment stage.

To enter the Foundation Establishment stage, he must have Foundation Establishment Pills. He was not confident in refining them, and he was currently only collecting materials. He had to wait until he merged Wang Weijun's experience in alchemy before he could refine them with confidence.

Not only did he not relax his cultivation, but even his Evolutionary Immortality, Mi Xiaojing persisted in. Wang Weijun saw this kind of fanatic cultivation very clearly and couldn't help but admire the little guy. He was really fighting hard.

On the eighth day, Mi Xiaojing carved the last Thunder Spirit Pattern. The dense patterns and scratches on the sword blank made him feel a sense of accomplishment. This was something he had carved out bit by bit. Every scratch was carved with all his heart and soul. Even though he had not yet refined it, he already liked it very much.

.

The next step was to draw gold wire, which was very easy for Mi Xiaojing. As long as there was a solid piece of steel with conical holes, he could draw the wire. From coarse to fine holes, he pulled back and forth, and a gold bar could be drawn into an extremely long wire.

After drawing the gold into a hair-like thickness, Mi Xiaojing began to embed the gold thread into the sword blank, bit by bit. There wasn't much technique involved, just patience and meticulousness, something Mi Xiaojing never lacked.

Xuanjinmu was a pale gold color, especially the wooden core, which was extremely light in color. Especially when the Xuanjinmu had not yet been dehydrated, the color was even whiter.After the gold thread was inlaid, the entire sword body was shining with golden light. The pattern formed by the gold thread was extremely dense, almost completely occupying the surface of the sword body. The sword blank looked like it was cast in gold, incredibly magnificent.

Mi Xiaojing checked the Thunder Spirit Pattern again, checking it four times in total. He exhaled a long breath, feeling exhausted. Even though he was an evolutionary immortal and had an incredibly long attention span, he still felt dizzy after a while.

After recovering his energy, Mi Xiaojing knew that there were only two steps left. In fact, inlaying gold thread was already outdated. Fortunately, they still had to use magical techniques and incantations to bless the sword. This standardized blessing was much easier than blessing it out of thin air.

Mi Xiaojing quickly found that the blessing was easy. One Thunder Spirit Pattern extended along the pre-drawn lines and quickly took shape. There were three Thunder Spirit Patterns in total, formed by 18 Thunder Spirit Patterns. Mi Xiaojing could refine three Thunder Spirit Patterns every day, but he didn't have enough spiritual qi. Each Thunder Spirit Pattern required at least half of his true qi. After refining one, he had to meditate and absorb spiritual qi to restore his true qi before refining another.

After six days, the 18 Thunder Spirit Patterns were completed, leaving only the final step of activating them to form the three Spirit Patterns. Mi Xiaojing was worried because he knew his true qi was not enough. Once activated, he couldn't stop, but what could he do if he didn't have enough true qi?

After thinking for a while, Mi Xiaojing went to Wang Weijun for help. Although he was wary of him, he knew that he couldn't solve this problem on his own. Wang Weijun was pleased with himself because with each consultation, his value in Mi Xiaojing's eyes increased. He thought he could take over Mi Xiaojing's body if he played his cards right.

"It's simple...can't you refine some high-grade Qi Refining Pills and prepare a few in case your true qi runs out? Although they are ordinary, high-grade pills can still replenish your true qi well."

Mi Xiaojing had a few high-grade Qi Refining Pills on hand, which should be enough for refining the sword. However, if the Heart Sect found out, they would go crazy. Using high-grade Qi Refining Pills to replenish true qi was a waste of precious resources. But for Mi Xiaojing, as long as he could refine high-grade pills regularly, they were just consumables. He had five high-grade pills on hand, but he didn't dare to trade them. During his usual practice, he gave Luo Bo, Zhang Ke, and Afu low-grade pills because their strength was too weak to absorb the abundant spiritual qi in high-grade pills.

Mi Xiaojing had enough high-grade Spirit Pills to activate the three Spirit Patterns on the Magical Sword. He rested for an hour before placing the sword on the stone platform. He used a magical technique and then an incantation, and in an instant, his true qi poured into the sword's Spirit Patterns like a rushing river.In just a few tens of seconds, more than half of Mi Xiaojing's true Qi was drained away. Immediately after, he threw a high-quality Qi Refining pill into his mouth. In an instant, the spiritual Qi in his body burst forth. Xiaojing frantically converted the spiritual Qi into true Qi while crazily outputting true Qi.
