Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 376 The Correct Way to Master the Art of Weapon Forging
"There are quite a few restrictions!"

Liu Guoxing, standing to the side, naturally understood what was happening.

Difficult to mass-produce.

Even if it is mass-produced, only Xu Yue can activate it, and only one person can use it.

How could he possibly use so much by himself?
If it lacks widespread adoption, its value is greatly diminished.

However, it seems that through mystical means, others could be allowed to use it.

However, the requirements for cultivation level seem to be quite high.

These restrictions are quite significant.

Liu Guoxing didn't know much about cultivation or anything like that.

Having taken over this project, I've had quite a bit of contact with people and naturally gained some understanding of it.

It is difficult to use below the third realm.

The Three Realms are said to be top-tier existences in the cultivation world.

It's not that there are only a handful, but there really aren't many.

"Isn't that the point of research?"

Xu Yue said to Liu Guoxing with a smile.

Liu Guoxing smiled and nodded.

Are there many restrictions?
Then reduce the restrictions.

Technological means may not necessarily be unable to solve the problem.

If it weren't for the use of technological means to detect and refine that special metal, how could a spatial artifact have been forged?
At this moment, Xu Yue felt more and more that this agricultural technology college was of great significance.

Both technological and metaphysical methods have their unique advantages, and cooperation can solve many problems.

What science can't explain, we resort to metaphysics.

If metaphysics can't do it, then use science.

By leveraging strengths and compensating for weaknesses, the benefits will be astonishing.

"What should we do with these?" Liu Guoxing asked, pointing to the tools. "Activating them is probably pointless. Can we re-refine them?"

For research purposes, not that many are needed.

Besides, Xu Yue has quite a few on hand.

"Let me try!"

Xu Yue was also unsure.

However, I feel that refining it again might not be a bad idea.

Xu Yue then took out array talismans and set up an array in the laboratory.

There was no need to avoid the crowd.

Ok?
As soon as the formation was activated, earth fire rose, and an astonishing heat swept around.

However, it was quickly restricted by another formation set up by Xu Yue and stopped spreading.

Guo Tianyou and Liu Chengji haven't changed much; they've met before.

The others, however, looked surprised.

While Liu Guoxing and the others were shocked, they were even more curious.

What scientific principle can explain this?

Where did the fire come from?
Why was the temperature of that fire so astonishing?
Xu Yue didn't say much, and then threw a piece of laboratory equipment into the formation.

The vessel then began to dissolve.

"What kind of magical artifact does Director Yan want?"

Xu Yue spoke.

"random!"

Yan Tian paused for a moment, then spoke.

It's good enough that we have it; what other styles do we need?
It's not like I'm choosing jewelry.

Xu Yue said no more and then refined the thing into a bracelet.

"Imprint your spiritual power!"

"Inject a trace of internal energy!"

Xu Yue was very skilled and quickly completed the production.

"Try it! See if you can sense the space inside and open it with your internal force."

Xu Yue handed the bracelet to Yan Tian.

"It's done!"

Yan Tian sensed the space, opened it, and even put some things inside to test it out.

Playing with the bracelet in his hand, Yan Tian couldn't help but feel a little excited.

He has come into contact with many magical artifacts, and has even used quite a few.

But the combined value of all those magical artifacts probably doesn't even compare to this storage bracelet.

"I'd like a different style of bracelet."

Jing Guohua said impatiently.

He also wanted one.

Who wouldn't want to own something like this?

Xu Yue nodded. Different styles of bracelets were really not difficult for Xu Yue.

He had studied it before.

If the finished product looks too ugly, that's not good either.

Soon, Jing Guohua also successfully refined his spatial magic weapon.

What should we do with the rest?

Xu Yue looked at Yan Tian and asked.

"Academician Liu, how's the extraction of those special metals going?" Yan Tian asked. "How much can you extract in a month?"

“If we have enough raw materials, we can extract quite a bit in a month,” Liu Guoxing said. “However, we haven’t found many raw materials yet. But if we can meet your current needs, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

Why is there no problem?
It's because cultivators below the third realm simply can't use it.

And each of them doesn't need to use too much.

“Then we’ll keep some of these for research, and leave the rest to Mr. Xu,” Yan Tian said. “I’ll have someone come and help you with the refining.”

"it is good!"

Xu Yue nodded; it was something he had expected.

He was actually quite curious about how many experts the Special Administration Bureau had.

Of course, it's unlikely that the special administration's top personnel would be equipped with such equipment; they would also be equipped with top personnel from the military.

Even Yan Tian probably couldn't be sure of the specifics.

Yan Tian and Jing Guohua left.

Guo Tianyou and Liu Chengji then went off to get busy.

Xu Yue didn't leave; instead, he discussed many things with Liu Guoxing.

Of course, most of the time it was Liu Guoxing asking questions and Xu Yue answering.

Liu Guoxing wanted to find a direction for his research by looking at Xu.

He wants to reduce and minimize those restrictions.

Of course, he did gain something during this time.

Although he failed to create a spatial artifact using technological means, his understanding of space clearly deepened during his research.

Space is not just for storing things.

Xu Yue was busy for two days, then returned to normal, occasionally crafting spatial magic treasures for the experts from the Special Administration Bureau who came to visit.

I also saw a few acquaintances there.

Chen Tao, Director of the Guangdong Special Administration Bureau; Shi Lin, Director of the Inner Mongolia Special Administration Bureau; Zeng Shiqiang, Director of the Zhejiang Special Administration Bureau, etc.

Those who arrived first were mostly the directors of the Special Administration Bureau from various states.

Then came the military's top experts.

Some people are special; they don't just refine one.

As he continued refining, Xu Yue's weapon-refining skills became increasingly proficient.

He began to ponder refining other magical artifacts.

"Take it and try it out. See how good this compass I made is?"

Xu Yue summoned Guo Tianyou and Liu Chengji, and gave each of them a compass.

That compass is not a spatial artifact, so it does not require imprinting with spiritual power or internal energy. Both Guo Tianyou and Liu Chengji can use it.

"The boss can actually forge magical artifacts?"

Guo Tianyou was a little surprised.

Ritual implements are rare, especially those suitable for feng shui masters.

Guo Tianyou possesses a compass, a magical artifact passed down through his family.

He felt that the compass in his hand was exactly the same as the one passed down in his family.

Even if it was just a simple experiment in the lab.

In that case, their family wouldn't need a single compass; the father and son would use one.

"A superior-grade magic weapon!"

Liu Chengji also said with some surprise.

"Magic artifacts are graded?"

Xu Yue asked, somewhat surprised.

He didn't really know much about magical artifacts. He hadn't had much contact with them either.

“Magic artifacts vary in quality, and naturally, they are also classified,” Liu Chengji said with a smile. “However, although there are classifications, they are not that precise. From a feng shui master’s perspective, generally speaking, any object that has spirituality and can influence the surrounding magnetic field is a magic artifact. The stronger the influence, the higher the grade.”

"And what about magic artifacts?" Xu Yue asked. "Are there any other magical treasures, spiritual treasures, or even divine artifacts?"

Liu Chengji shook his head.

"There really isn't one," Liu Chengji said. "In the cultivation world today, everyone uses the term 'magical artifact' to refer to something. If there is a divine artifact, then it might be called a divine artifact. But a divine artifact isn't necessarily stronger than a magical artifact."

Artifact?

The storage artifacts that Xu Yue crafted could be called divine artifacts.

Because it's powerful enough.

"I thought it was like in the novels, with different kinds of magical artifacts, magical treasures, spiritual artifacts, spiritual treasures, divine artifacts, immortal artifacts, and so on," Xu Yue said with a smile. "Now it seems I was overthinking it. However, I feel that the magical artifacts nowadays seem to be much less powerful than before."

“Indeed!” Liu Chengji said, “Most of the most powerful magical artifacts in the cultivation world are inherited. There are various speculations about the reasons for this. I personally think it should be related to the changes in the world. Now it seems that it may also be related to the methods of artifact forging.”

Nowadays, most magical artifacts are nurtured rather than crafted.

The major sects should still have some of the techniques for refining weapons, but there are probably very few who can actually refine magical artifacts.

Its power is also limited.

Those who can reach the top level like Xu Yue are extremely rare, and most of them rely on luck.

Changes in the heavens and earth?

The method of weapon forging?

It seems quite possible.

Xu Yue glanced at the jade pendant on his wrist.

That magical artifact wasn't crafted by Xu Yue, but rather activated using runes.

What if it is refined using the refining method?

Wouldn't that be even more powerful?

Once the thought came to mind, it wouldn't leave Xu Yue's mind.

"There are still some formations in Li Family Village that require your assistance."

Guo Tianyou began to speak.

They've been busy there all this time.

However, there are some formations that they find difficult to arrange using feng shui principles.

"I'll go in two days."

Xu Yue spoke up, saying that he was currently pondering whether or not to refine a stone mill to see how powerful it was.

Guo Tianyou and his companion then left, seemingly eager to try out their newly acquired magical artifacts.

Xu Yue then took out a piece of gold and began to refine the "Golden Mill".

He wanted to see if the magical artifact he forged would be more powerful.

He felt that the stone mill in his house was not a carved ritual object, but rather something made by refining.

It is a work of nature, without any trace of carving.

Once the shaping was successful, Xu Yue immediately connected the runes and activated the magical artifact.

Ok?
Xu Yue looked at the golden millstone and immediately showed a look of surprise.

It was indeed more powerful.

"Then, if Uncle Three and the others imprint their spiritual power on this millstone and retain their inner energy, can it also be used?"

"Could this be the correct way to master the art of weapon crafting?"

Xu Yue pondered for a moment, then made a phone call to Xu Jianghe.

"Third Uncle, where are you? Come to the lab, okay? Is Sister Wang Yun in the hospital? We'll see!"

Wang Yun was hospitalized not because she was sick, but because her due date was approaching.

Thinking about it, that makes sense.

Zhang Ruoxi will be out of her postpartum period soon.

Then, Xu Yue called Guo Tianyou and Liu Chengji back, who had just left.

"Let's see if it works!"

Xu Yue handed the golden millstone to Guo Tianyou.

The compass he crafted could be used by both Guo Tianyou and the other man, so this millstone should be fine too, right?

"no!"

Guo Tianyou shook his head.

Xu Yue frowned and began to ponder the problem.

What's the difference between them?

Runes!

It should be.

The compass had no runes, but the millstone did, and it was activated by Xu Yue's primordial energy.

Then it has uniqueness.

"Let's see if we can use the same method as before, where we imprinted our spiritual power and magical power."

Xu Yue continued.

Then the refining process began, and Guo Tianyou cooperated fully.

He knew that this millstone was a deadly weapon.

Although it's a replica, its power is still astonishing.

Xu Yue once used this magic weapon to kill two powerful figures at the fourth realm.

The first version I used was the original, but back then it was the Three Realms.

The second time he used a replica, even though he was already at the fourth level.

If I had one, my combat power would definitely skyrocket. But when I was fighting against a fourth-realm expert, I would at least have a better chance of survival. If I encountered a third-realm expert, my chances of winning would be even greater.

"Try it!"

Xu Yue looked at Guo Tianyou with anticipation.

"it's here?"

Guo Tianyou asked.

If such a powerful magical artifact were activated, would you even need your office anymore?

"I let you try to see if you could master it, but I didn't let you see how powerful it really is!"

Xu Yue said that he had no interest in finding a place with Guo Tianyou to test the power of the magical artifact.

"Buzz!"

Guo Tianyou channeled his magic power, connecting it to the millstone runes, and the millstone was instantly activated.

He then quickly withdrew his magic, and the millstone instantly returned to normal.

"It's done!" Guo Tianyou said. "I feel that I have a strong control over this magic artifact. It should be related to the spiritual power imprinted on it before."

Imprinting spiritual power connects the mind with the artifact, making it easier to control.

Infusing it with magic power then becomes the key to activating the magical artifact.

Preconceived notions?

“Activating a magical artifact with magic power and controlling it with internal magic power seems to weaken its power a bit,” Xu Yue said. “However, having a powerful magical artifact by your side is always a good thing. You should keep this one.”

Has its power decreased?

It seems to exude a very strong aura.

Guo Tianyou had never seen such a powerful magical artifact before.

This is a big killer.

He was very satisfied with this.

Xu Yue then refined another one for Liu Chengji.

"Go find a secluded spot and test its power yourselves."

Xu Yue waved his hand to dismiss the two men, and then made a phone call to Li Zhuting.

If magic power is feasible, then internal energy should also be feasible.

Guo Tianyou and Liu Chengji both possessed magical artifacts, so Li Zhuting should have one as well.

Don't favor one over the other.

Moreover, Li Zhuting is the main fighting force of Taoyuan Village.

"Imprinting Spiritual Power"

"Inject internal energy."

"Connect the runes, activate the artifact, stop."

Li Zhuting didn't control his strength well, nor did he stop in time. As a result, the aura emanating from the millstone was too strong, making a mess of Xu Yue's office.

"Boss, this..."

Lee Joo-ting was somewhat embarrassed and at a loss for what to do.

The boss was crafting a magical artifact for him, but he ended up destroying the boss's office.

"Find a secluded spot and practice on your own. Don't lose control and end up hurting your own people before you even get to the enemy," Xu Yue said. "Martial arts practitioners are ultimately much weaker than spiritual practitioners in terms of mental strength, so they are not as adept at controlling magical artifacts as they are."

Guo Tianyou and his group were able to control things well, but Li Zhuting was not.

This is clearly related to the strength of their mental power.

After Li Zhuting left, Xu Yue fell into deep thought.

He has now found the correct way to master the art of weapon crafting.

The key issue is that the number of magical artifacts that can be crafted is limited.
