Chapter 321 The magic weapon of destiny—Thunder Ruler (5k, please subscribe)

Yuanjie was elected Queen Youxian, the internal fighting in the Ying Ding tribe came to an end, and peace was restored.

As before, Wei Tu's main focus was on Wei's Danfufang, striving to improve his alchemy attainments in the shortest possible time.

—The improvement of Jindan Zhenjun’s realm is different from Qi training and foundation building. It is just a common thing for most monks to spend decades or even hundreds of years to improve a small realm without external help.

For example, High Priest Mu Feng, throughout his life, his realm only stayed in the middle stage of Jindan.

Therefore, Wei Tu spent more time in Wei's Danfufang than meditating in the cave.

In his spare time, Wei Tu will also fulfill his contract and do his best to provide guidance on alchemy and talismans to the Tao family alchemists and talisman masters in the shop.

With the guidance of Wei Tu.

Tao Zhongjing’s alchemy path progressed rapidly. In just six years, he reached a higher level and reached the second level of high-level alchemy master. He also became a new golden sign of Wei’s Alchemy Studio.

In comparison, the progress of brother and sister Tao Jie and Tao Ya in their talismans has been much slower.

It is worth mentioning that.

During this period, colleagues in Hujiexian City offered high prices to poach Tao Zhongjing, but Tao Zhongjing flatly rejected them.

Even Tao Zhongjing made it clear in public that he was willing to follow Senior Wei for the rest of his life and be the alchemist of Wei's Alchemy Workshop forever.

As soon as these words of loyalty came out, many monks in Hujie Immortal City were shocked and couldn't believe it.

After all, the status of an alchemist is lofty. Even if Wei Tu’s status is extraordinary and he is a senior in the industry, it is unlikely that a second-level high-grade alchemist will openly swear allegiance.

After some good people inquired about it, they learned the origin between the Hanshan Tao family and Wei Tu, and understood the truth about why the Hanshan Tao family was loyal to Wei Tu.

Soon, Wei Tu’s good deeds were known to most of the monks in Hujiexian City, and spread beyond the three major divisions.

 After the reputation spread, even stranger monks had more trust in Wei Tu, a third-level alchemist with noble character. Some monks even traveled thousands of miles to Hujie Immortal City to beg Wei Tu to start refining alchemy for the sake of safety.

Of course, Wei Tu’s fame is indispensable because of the people behind the scenes.

Tao Zhongjing's words of loyalty were initially a spontaneous act of the Tao family and had nothing to do with outsiders. At most, they were the gradual fermentation of Wei Tu's honest behavior.

But at the back, Wei Tu and Prince Youxian’s Mansion secretly interfered.

Wei Tu, a third-level alchemist, is not only the golden sign of Wei's Danfu Fang, but also the golden sign of Prince Youxian's palace.

Increasing the prestige of Wei Tu will, in turn, increase the prestige of Prince Youxian's palace.

As for Wei Tu…

He also urgently needs a good reputation to increase his status in the industry, so as to obtain more commissions for refining third-level elixirs.

It can be regarded as a hit-and-run accident.

Thus, while his reputation was rising, thanks to this, Wei Tu's alchemy attainments also began to improve steadily, and he was about to become a third-level mid-level alchemist.

but-

Just when Situ You, the elder of Gujian Mountain, traveled thousands of miles and traveled for several days to reach Hujiexian City and was about to ask for elixirs, Wei Tu suddenly went into seclusion a few days ago.

“Senior Situ, please wait for a while. Before the retreat, Senior Wei said that this retreat will last for up to three months…”

The fourth floor of the store, reception room.

Tao Fangde took a look at the handsome man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes in front of him, and said with a smile on his lips.

The seventh rank official in front of the prime minister's door.

Due to Wei Tu, Tao Fangde has received eighty or not one hundred Jindan Zhenjun in the past few years.

Therefore, when Tao Fangde faced Jindan True Lords like Situ You, he felt much less fear in his heart and adopted an attitude of equality.

“Alchemist Wei is in seclusion?”

“At most three months?”

Hearing this, Situ You looked hesitant.

Three months, neither long nor short. It can only be regarded as the daily retreat of Jindan Zhenjun.

“Okay, I’ll wait for you in March.”

He hesitated for a moment, thinking about Wei Tu's good reputation, Situ You nodded, and decided to wait for a while in Hujiexian City.

…

Hujie Xiancheng, where the Skylark lives.

In a secret room.

Wei Tu, who was anxiously awaited by Situ You, was sitting cross-legged at the moment, looking towards the center of the secret room, where the "Ten Thousand Woods Thunder Formation" shimmered with lavender thunder.

Within a dozen formation flags, the branches of spirit wood as thick as an arm shone with lightning, and complex thunder patterns appeared on the surface.

This object is the dead branch of the Thunder Spirit Tree that Wei Tu obtained from Yuan Xian back then.

After more than 50 years of cultivation by the "Ten Thousand Trees Nurturing Thunder Array", this withered branch of the Thunder Spirit Tree finally revived more than ten days ago and took on its first appearance.

From dead things, revived into spiritual things.

“Unfortunately, this Thunder Spirit Tree was severely damaged and it has no root system. After recovery, it can only reach the fourth level. It is quite different from the fifth level recorded in ancient books.”

Bai Zhi, dressed in black robe, stood in the corner of the secret room. She looked at the dead branches of the Thunder Spirit Tree in the formation and sighed softly.

Thunder Spirit Tree is a creation of heaven and earth that grows in a strange area and is condensed from pure thunder spirit power and wood spirit power.

The level is usually above level five. It is a treasure that even the venerable gods covet.

But the withered branch of the Thunder Spirit Tree in front of me was undoubtedly much worse, it was only at the level of fourth-level low-grade.

“The fourth-order low-grade spiritual trees are already very good. In the Da Cang Cultivation World, there are only a handful of fourth-order spiritual trees. They are mostly found in large sects and are rarely seen in the outside world.”

Wei Tu shook his head.

He is not greedy. It is his good fortune to be able to obtain this fourth-level withered branch of the Thunder Spirit Tree from Yuan Xian for a mere thirty thousand spirit stones.

Fifth level?

Only the third-level formation of Ten Thousand Trees Raising Thunder Formation in front of us may not be able to restore the withered branches of the Thunder Spirit Tree to the fifth-level level even if it is cultivated for a hundred years.

In addition, the dead branches of the fourth-level Thunder Spirit Tree are enough for him to use.

In this retreat, Wei Tu not only wanted to see the dead branches of the Thunder Spirit Tree resurrected, but also wanted to use it as a spiritual material to refine the natal magic weapon-Emperor Butterfly Ruler.

There are two methods for making natal magic weapons in "Shenmu Yuan Gong", namely "Rainbow Thorn" and "Emperor Butterfly Ruler".

For the former, Wei Tu has already been obtained from Bao Siyan, and there is no need to refine it further.

The main spiritual materials needed to refine the latter are third-level spiritual butterflies and a piece of fourth-level spiritual wood.

By chance, the dead branch of the Thunder Spirit Tree is at level four, which just meets the requirements for refining.

In addition, the initial level of the dead branches of the Thunder Spirit Tree is above level five. Using them as spiritual materials to refine the natal magic weapon will also help Wei Tu to improve the level of the natal magic weapon in the future.

As for the third-order spiritual butterfly...

A year ago, Wei Tu had asked Yuan Jie to find one in Ying Ding.

Although there are not many strange insects such as the third-level spirit butterfly in the world of immortal cultivation and are extremely rare, it is not difficult for the Ying Ding tribe.

The spiritual path of the Kangju people is based on secret witchcraft and fused with the immortal path.

Although Spirit Butterflies account for a small proportion of Secret Gu's Gu insects, they have been systematically cultivated within the Ying Ding Department.

“Yuyang Butterfly.”

As soon as Wei Tu touched the spirit animal bag, a yellow and blue butterfly the size of a fist appeared on his hand.

Yuyang Butterfly is the third-level spiritual butterfly he requested from the Ying Ding Department this time.

This butterfly is a rare yang-type spiritual insect in the world of immortality.

Although its innate spells are mediocre, fortunately, they do not conflict with the attributes of the Thunder Spirit Wood. It is the third-level spirit butterfly currently in the Ying Ding Department that is most compatible with the Thunder Spirit Wood's attributes.

The natal magic weapon is different from the ordinary magic weapon. Even if the monk himself has no experience in refining the weapon, he can successfully refine the natal magic weapon step by step by relying on the natal magic weapon and it takes a long time.

Although Wei Tu had not spent much energy on the art of weapon refining before, he had received a third-level weapon inheritance from Bai Zhi many years ago... Therefore, in terms of studying the art of weapon, he was comparable to ordinary people. A second-level weapon refiner.

Therefore, Wei Tu does not need to entrust others to refine the natal magic weapon of Emperor Butterfly Ruler.

“Thank you for your help, fellow Taoist, to protect the Dharma.”

Wei Tu bowed to Bai Zhi, then took out a tripod and prepared to refine the Emperor Butterfly Ruler.

He calmed down his mood, with a solemn look on his face. He pointed at the Thunder Spirit Wood located in the formation and took it into the palm of his hand.

Then, Wei Tu opened his mouth slightly and spit out a stream of hot elixir fire, which fell into the cauldron in front of him.

Wait until the tripod turns red.

Wei Tu took the opportunity to invest in the Thunder Spirit Wood and refine the corresponding spiritual materials of the Emperor Butterfly Ruler.

Ten days later.

On the lid of the tripod, precious light overflowed, and occasionally a few rays of lavender thunder flashed. Within the cauldron lid, there seemed to be a thunder beast, and from time to time a low sound could be heard. The sound was like thunder from the nine heavens, deafening.

Sitting on the futon, Wei Tu felt calm. He controlled his spiritual consciousness, accurately controlled the elixir fire in the cauldron, and slowly refined the spiritual materials.

When the spiritual material of the cauldron turned into liquid and gradually took shape, condensing into a long purple ruler as thick as a baby's arm, Wei Tu made a move. He waved his sleeves and threw the Yuyang Butterfly in his hand into the vessel. Within the tripod.

Yuyang Die was roasted by the Dan Fire and died instantly. His body melted into the Blue and Purple Changchi, while the remaining essence lingered near the Blue and Purple Changchi, refusing to integrate.

“This is a crucial step.”

Bai Zhi looked worried.

Like the magic weapons, the natal magic weapons of Jindan Zhenjun also have different levels. An important basis for its judgment is the spirituality of the natal magic weapon.

A magic weapon such as the Emperor Butterfly Ruler, which is blended with the spirit of monsters and beasts during refining, is naturally a high-level item among the natal magic weapons.

However, it also comes with a corresponding price.

That is the difficulty of refining. Compared with ordinary natal magic weapons, it is much more difficult.

Easy to fail.

Time passes slowly.

More than two months have passed in a flash.

There are only five days left before the March period.

On this day, the cauldron in front of Wei Tu shook slightly, and glowing light began to escape from the walls of the cauldron, and streams of clear spiritual energy came out of the cauldron.

"open!"

With Wei Tu’s words, he drank softly.

The cauldron was opened, and a long ruler as thick as a baby's arm flew out of the glow with a buzzing sound and floated in mid-air.

This long ruler is blue and purple in color, with a finger-sized golden butterfly pattern printed on the handle. It looks quite gorgeous.

Wei Tu stretched out his hand and used magic power to capture the long purple ruler. He thought for a moment and then touched the long ruler with magic power.

In an instant, the long purple ruler changed its appearance and turned into black paint. The surface of the ruler was bare and unpretentious. .

“In this way, it will not be easy for others to guess the origin of the magic weapon.”

Wei Tu looked satisfied.

Tao patterns are made in heaven, and it is difficult for him to change them. You can only modify the appearance after it is baked.

“Try the power of the magic weapon.”

Weitu held the long ruler, and a green light emerged from his right palm, slowly injecting magic power into the long ruler.

next moment.

Just hearing the sound of thunder, several cyan phantoms appeared out of thin air in the secret room, running in all directions and disappearing in the blink of an eye.

One of the cyan phantoms stopped when it was about to hit the wall of the secret room.

"Much better than I expected. The "Chipfly Parasitism" performed by Emperor Diechi is not only faster, but the phantoms it creates are almost the same as real people..."

Wei Tu was overjoyed.

The Imperial Butterfly Ruler, a natal magic weapon, is not only useful for attacking, but one of its biggest functions is to cooperate with the secret escape technique of "Chipfly Parasitism" to quickly escape.

—The art of parasitism by worms is an escape art performed by using the fourth-level spiritual wood. The caster can use the source of the spiritual wood to create a clone that is exactly the same as himself, and then escape calmly.

 Wei Tu discovered that the Emperor Butterfly Ruler he made with thunder wood could escape faster than the Emperor Butterfly Ruler recorded in the technique.

After thinking about it for a moment, he understood the reason.

In the world of immortality, the fastest escape methods are Thunder Escape and Wind Escape.

His Imperial Butterfly Ruler was made from dead branches of the Thunder Spirit Tree that fell to the fourth level. Therefore, when using the "Chipfly Parasitism Technique" to escape, you are borrowing the thunder power in the magic weapon.

In other words, Wei Tu mastered the Thunder Escape in disguise with the help of the Imperial Butterfly Ruler in his hand.

“The general name of Emperor Butterfly Ruler is not suitable, and it is easy for people to discover the foundation of my skills. From now on, I will call it...Lei Ling Ruler.”

Wei Tu pondered for a moment and thought to himself.

Next, Wei Tu tried his attack method with the Thunder Ruler again.

However, compared with escaping, the attack of the Thunder Ruler can only be regarded as mediocre.

Its power is within the middle stage of the Golden Elixir, which is above normal.

Of course, this is not a failure of Lei Lingchi. But the strength of Wei Tu, Dharma and Body cultivator is too strong, surpassing the ordinary Jin Dan Zhenjun by a lot.

If it is an ordinary golden elixir, with the help of the natal magic weapon of Thunder Spirit Ruler, its strength will instantly jump to the top of the same level.

However, Wei Tu is different. His strength has exceeded the same level and has reached the late stage of Jindan. That's why it seems that Lei Lingchi is useless.

Fortunately, the escape effect of the Thunder Ruler is particularly outstanding, adding a life-saving means to Wei Tu, which is even more powerful.

…

Two days later.

Weitu broke through the barrier and went to the store.

"Situ You, the elder of Gujian Mountain..." Tao Fangde came over after hearing the news and took the opportunity to report important matters.

“Gujian Mountain?”

Hearing this, Wei Tu was slightly surprised.

Three departments, two mountains and one palace, these are the six top forces of Kang State. Gujian Mountain is one of the two mountains. In terms of strength, it is at least equivalent to two Jingshui Pavilions.

Therefore, from common sense analysis, there should be no shortage of third-level alchemists in Gujian Mountain to make alchemy for Situ You. There is no need for Situ You to entrust him to make alchemy.

In the past few years, most of the monks outside Ying Ding who entrusted Wei Tu to refine elixirs were casual cultivators, and few were immortal sect golden elixirs like Situ You.

“Invite him over first.”

Weitu suppressed his doubts and said.

Situ You waited for him for three months. Even if he refused to make elixirs for him, before that, he had to meet his superior Situ You to avoid ruining his reputation.

Half an hour later.

Situ You rushed to Weishi Danfufang.

After meeting, Situ You revealed the elixir he had entrusted Wei Tu to refine.

“I have heard about the name of Alchemist Wei for a long time. I came here this time to ask fellow Taoist Wei to refine the “Golden Marrow Pill”. I wonder... is Alchemist Wei confident in refining this elixir?”

Hearing the name of this elixir, Wei Tu's heart suddenly moved, and he immediately swallowed the words of rejection from his throat.

Without it, the Golden Marrow Pill is too valuable.

It is also very important to him.

Golden Marrow Pill is a rare third-level elixir in the world of immortality that can be used for monks to refine their bodies.

Whether it is the recipe for the Golden Marrow Pill or the elixir saved in the process of refining the Golden Marrow Pill, it will be beneficial to his subsequent body refining.

At present, although Xiao Guo's Golden Congo is still effective for Wei Tu, he took two pills and developed drug resistance, so the price/performance ratio is no longer high.

Golden Marrow Pill is a good substitute.

“Fellow Taoist Situ is from Gujian Mountain, why don’t you find an alchemist in your sect?”

Weitu expressed his concerns.

If Situ You didn't make this matter clear, no matter how greedy he was for the Golden Marrow Pill, he would not hastily agree to this unusual thing.

The four words "unusual" naturally carry a danger signal.

"I have another enemy within the sect. This person's name is... Wei Hua. To be honest, Alchemist Wei, I have a life-and-death feud with this guy..."

“If you refine alchemy in the sect, every move you make will be known to the sect. The reason why I came to Alchemist Wei is because the Yingding Department is remote. If I refine alchemy here, no one will know about my increased strength.”

Situ You hesitated for a moment and then spoke.

“Is that the only reason?”

Wei Tu raised his eyebrows slightly.

Because there are enemies in the sect, it is indeed a reasonable thing to find another alchemist to refine the elixir.

The reason why the Frost Fairy of Ningyue Palace is willing to make friends with him, a third-level alchemist, is related to this reason.

Heresies are more abominable than heretics.

Where there are competing interests, there will be contradictions. This is especially true for the sects.

“Fellow Daoist Situ, Wei will always investigate before refining the elixir. If what he says is untrue...it is absolutely impossible for Wei to refine this elixir.”

Wei Tu said unceremoniously.

“Only for this reason.”

Situ You looked calmly and nodded seriously.

“After half a month, if things are consistent with what Fellow Taoist Situ said, Wei will start refining the elixir again.”

Seeing this, Wei Tu did not rush to agree. He thought for a moment and said.

The more conspicuous the place, the easier it is to offend people.

He will not make elixirs easily without thorough investigation.

“Okay! I’ll wait for another half month.”

Hearing this, Situ You showed no dissatisfaction. He nodded and said goodbye.

Alchemists have a high status in the world of immortality. And Wei Tu is the chief alchemist of Prince Youxian's Mansion, he is not a little person who moves around.

Wei Tu asked him to wait for half a month, and he could only wait. It was impossible for him to get into a fight or get angry because of this matter.
