Chapter 374 Weapon Refiner

The reason why the gatekeeper of the weapon-refining pavilion would take out star-patterned steel is because, in their era, star-patterned steel was used as an entry-level material to determine whether a weapon refiner was qualified.

Only by perfectly resolving the impurities in star-patterned steel can one be considered to have truly entered the realm of weapon refiners.

In this day and age, star-patterned steel is extremely precious, and it is certainly not something that can be wasted. However, almost every cultivator who practices the orthodox path of weapon crafting has heard of the legend of star-patterned steel.

This is also why the disciple was immediately driven away as soon as flames appeared in his palm.

Using flames on star-patterned steel is something only a complete novice would do.

At the refining platform, Li Shuang and Huo Lie started working almost simultaneously.

The hammers in their hands struck the star-patterned steel steadily, producing a crisp clanging sound.

Huo Lie is a body-refining demonic cultivator. In the Central Continent, body cultivation is widely recognized as the most suitable path to cultivate weapon crafting.

Body cultivators do not cultivate the dantian or the nascent soul; their cultivation is entirely dispersed throughout their muscles. They are completely ignorant of magic, but their physical strength allows them to withstand magical attacks. In actual combat, body cultivators have another advantage: the spiritual energy they cultivate is integrated into their bodies and will never disappear. Magic cultivators will fail in battle due to exhaustion of spiritual energy, but body cultivators do not have this problem. Relatively speaking, their endurance is much better than that of magic cultivators.

This extraordinary control over the physical body, along with exceptional endurance, is exactly what weapon crafting requires!
The disciples guarding the pavilion were slightly surprised when they saw Yan Lie's bulging muscles.

"This new disciple is actually from the body-refining school."

"Isn't the Fifth Elder from the body-refining sect? He's probably a disciple that the Fifth Elder values."

“Body cultivators do indeed have an innate advantage in forging.”

"He does have a good chance of passing the test."

The two exchanged a few words, then their expressions changed slightly, and they suddenly turned to look in Li Shuang's direction.

This...this is...

Li Shuang didn't have the almost abnormal control over her body that body cultivators possessed, but as she pounded, without needing to do anything special, the vast spiritual energy of heaven and earth was naturally drawn to her!

She didn't seem to be using much force, but her hammering speed was much faster than Yan Lie's. Under her constant hammering, the color of the star-patterned steel gradually began to change.

A color change is a sign that impurities are beginning to be eliminated!

This is just the beginning.

She has actually drawn out the impurities.

"Breathing technique, it's the breathing technique!" The disciples guarding the pavilion unconsciously lowered their voices.

Li Shuang's tapping had a unique rhythm, a rhythm that made her seem to merge with the way of heaven.

If.

Yan Lie is still at the skill level.

That Li Shuang was already infinitely close to the Dao.

"This year's elite disciples seem rather interesting," the guardian disciple said, a strange smile playing on his lips.

Especially this Li Shuang.

Her breathing technique might still be able to play a role in the final refining process...

Time flies.

Yan Lie and Li Shuang were both focused on striking the star-patterned steel.

Just half an hour later, Li Shuang stopped.

Under her forging, the star-patterned steel shrank by almost half. The entire stone also appeared increasingly lustrous.

"It's done." Li Shuang handed over the star-patterned steel.

One of the disciples guarding the pavilion didn't answer either. He calmly asked, "Are you sure all the impurities have been removed?"

Li Shuang nodded.

Without checking, he suddenly sent a wisp of true fire into the room.

Now, the star-patterned steel is still in Li Shuang's hands. If there are still impurities that haven't been removed, it will explode immediately once it comes into contact with real fire.

Li Shuang remained calm, not moving an inch, and didn't even use her spiritual power to defend herself.

Half a day passed.

The star-patterned steel is intact, and all impurities have been removed!

A smile appeared on the face of the disciple guarding the pavilion: "It seems our weapon-refining pavilion has gained a promising talent. Li Shuang, you can go in now. You can keep this piece of star-patterned steel for yourself." "Thank you." Li Shuang put away the star-patterned steel and entered the weapon-refining pavilion.

Li Shuang had succeeded, and Yan Lie was secretly alarmed, but he dared not slow down in the slightest.

As the strongest among the younger generation of body cultivators, he is also an absolute master in the art of weapon crafting.

just now.

In the very path he excelled at, he actually lost to Li Shuang?
Even Li He and Youlan don't have this kind of ability!
This Li Shuang is truly too mysterious and unpredictable, and too all-powerful.

Yan Lie suddenly understood Cangyin; this person was simply too powerful to be reasonable.

Yan Lie is still working hard outside.

Li Shuang has already entered the weapon refining pavilion.

Upon entering the weapon-refining pavilion, one is immediately greeted by waves of scorching heat, with various flames burning and weapon refiners busily at work.

After Li Shuang walked in, no one paid any attention to her.

So now, here comes the problem.

Who is Senior Brother Lin?
Li Shuang activated the Rebirth Mantra and said, "Senior Brother Lin, Senior Brother asked me to come and help."

No one responded.

Li Shuang continued to circulate her energy, calling out three times in succession. Only then did a middle-aged man with a full beard emerge from behind the furnace.

The man glanced at Li Shuang, somewhat surprised.

It's not surprising that Lin An sent her.

Surprisingly, the disciple guarding the pavilion actually let her in!
Senior Brother Lin said calmly, "Then you can give it a try."

Li Shuang obediently walked over.

Senior Brother Lin didn't say anything, he just threw a pile of ore over there.

Li Shuang recognized some of these ores, but not others.

But Senior Brother Lin didn't offer any explanation; he simply told her to begin refining.

Li Shuang remained calm.

She redeemed the artifacts in the encyclopedia, and recognized most of the ores.

Even if you don't know her, she still has the Heaven and Earth Furnace!
Li Shuang skillfully began refining the ore.

Senior Brother Lin remained silent, but kept observing Li Shuang's condition.

Seeing that Li Shuang's movements were skillful and efficient, a satisfied smile finally appeared on his face.

This time.

Lin An has indeed sent a good helper.

While Li Shuang was engrossed in refining her skills, Yan Lie barely completed the task at the last minute and was also allowed in.

Originally, finding Senior Brother Lin was also a challenge.

but now.

He breathed a sigh of relief as soon as he saw Li Shuang's location.

The big shots don't mistake people.

The guy next to her is most likely Senior Brother Lin.

Yan Lie hurried over.

Senior Brother Lin glanced at Yan Lie and threw him some ore as well.

Senior Brother Lin smiled strangely: "Oh, there are actually two this time. Yan Lie, right? Let me see what you're capable of."

Yan Lie dared not slack off and began to perform the task diligently.

The refining of the first few ores was relatively simple, but when he got to the fourth one, his expression changed slightly.

He didn't recognize this thing!
Yan Lie's movements had only paused for a moment when Senior Brother Lin's strange gaze drifted over.

All the weapon refiners nearby seemed to be summoned and looked over.
