Chapter 456: Sword Forging (3)
Jianmen’s cultural heritage is so strong that it is astonishing.
In this Earth Lung Furnace, the top-grade embryos that Lu Yi saw, although they were only embryos and had not yet taken shape, the aura they exuded was comparable to the top-grade treasures of the seventeenth and eighteenth levels of the Sea of Bitterness Realm.
Especially compared with the treasures of the same level cast by the swordsmiths in Jiancheng using all kinds of collected metal materials and various casting methods, the top-grade embryos in the Earth Lung Furnace are naturally spiritual and born from the creation of heaven and earth. They contain innate mysteries, and the power of treasures of the same level is at least three times higher.
One is human power, the other is created by nature. There is no need to explain the difference between them.
The power difference is three times, which basically means a crushing situation. Unless there is a huge gap between the cultivation levels, there is no need to fight at all!
With these top-quality embryos, various flying swords and magic weapons can be cast as rewards to the elite disciples. It is conceivable how much of an advantage the disciples of Jianmen will have over the disciples of other sects when fighting.
Every year, three hundred and sixty of these top-quality embryos mature. With thirty thousand years of accumulation, what a terrifying number!
And it takes sixty years for an acquired spiritual treasure embryo to mature.
In Lu Yi's opinion, they are naturally not as important as the several treasures of the religion in his hands, such as the Qingning Heart Lamp, the Wu Earth Stealth Thunder Net, and even the Buddha Sound Hall. These are all treasures of the eighth, ninth, or even tenth heavens on the other side.
The spiritual treasure embryo conceived in the Earth Lung Furnace here is probably at the level of the first and second heavens on the other side.
Only those embryos that have not been taken out and have been absorbing a large amount of earth vein energy and the spiritual charm of heaven and earth in this Earth Lung Furnace have the faint breath of the third and fourth heavens on the other side.
Even so, a rough calculation shows that this furnace has been in existence for 30,000 years, and one treasure is produced every 60 years, which means that 500 acquired spiritual treasures are in the hands of the elders of Jianmen. Add to that the good things they got from other channels, and there is no need to mention how terrifying the strength of the top leaders of Jianmen is.
It is truly a sect that is fabulously wealthy!
So, since there was Bai Yuan, the prodigal son of the Shao Zong, why should Lu Yi save money for them?
For a set of armor, Lu Yi chose a set of 'Nine Dragons Triple Chain Mail Heavy Armor' which had been nurtured in the Earth Lung Furnace for nine thousand years, and its origin had almost been raised to the extreme of the fifth level of the other shore.
As the saying goes, the dragon has nine sons. This set of triple chain mail armor has exquisite shapes. The left and right knees, left and right elbows, left and right shoulders, front chest and back are the shapes of the beast head swallowing mouth of one of the nine dragon sons. The fully enclosed head is the dragon head of Pulao, one of the nine dragon sons.
Apart from the helmet and beast mouth in the shape of nine dragons, the entire set of armor consists of three layers, inner and outer, composed of 36,000 exquisite armor plates. Each armor plate forms a small defensive formation. The inner and outer layers, each with 12,000 armor plates, constitute a large defensive formation respectively. Then the three layers of armor and the three large formations constitute a powerful 'Nine Dragons Covering the Sea, Collapsing the Mountains, and Chaosing the Sky Formation'.
This is an extremely powerful defensive formation naturally generated by heaven and earth. Once there is enough magic power to activate it, this formation will directly break away from the armor and cover an airspace of tens, hundreds or even thousands of miles in radius. One person can form a formation and suppress one side.
A gun, with a mighty shape and a length of thirty-six feet. For ordinary people, this length is too outrageous.
But for Lu Yi, whose normal height reached 16 feet, this spear was only about the length of two of his body, which was exactly the most convenient and suitable length.
The name of this gun is 'Flying Bear'. Countless wind and cloud patterns are swirling and dancing inside the gun barrel. Once magic power is poured into it, a flying bear image will immediately rise into the air. Its function is to bless the gun owner, rapidly increasing the gun owner's escape speed and gun swinging speed.
As long as the mana is sufficient, as long as the understanding of the way of 'wind' is sufficient, this speed blessing... theoretically can reach more than a thousand times that of the gun owner. Such a terrifying speed is perfect for killing enemies or escaping.
A sword, also in the shape of a giant sword. The sword is 12 feet long, 1 foot wide at its widest point, and half an inch thick at its ridge. The surface of the sword is covered with water patterns and ice patterns. Inside the translucent sword body, you can see the surging ice sea rolling up countless icebergs and hitting them. The icebergs collide with each other, exploding into pieces of jade dragon scales all over the sky, and the momentum is earth-shattering.
This sword also has a natural inscription, which is the word "Beiming".
When he saw the name of the sword Beiming, Lu Yi knew that this sword was indeed destined for him.
One piece of armor, one gun, and one sword are enough to meet Lu Yi's "daily needs" now. There is no need to use those heavy weapons that will cause huge consequences once they are exposed.
Wutong Sou took action personally, holding the Jianmen talisman, and personally pulled the three treasures out of the corresponding furnaces.
The embryo of the spiritual treasure generated by heaven and earth in the Earth Lung Furnace seems to be fully formed, but in fact it is just a ball of light, a ball of vital energy, a ball of the great Dao laws, and a ball of Dao rhyme and spiritual inspiration. Because of the powerful power derived from heaven and earth in the Earth Lung Furnace, it is forced to condense into a form visible to the naked eye.
Once this kind of spiritual treasure embryo is brought to Jiancheng, the sword-making grand masters will personally fill it with various rare materials one by one. While filling, they will also carefully refine and carve it. If nothing goes wrong, they will be able to forge an extremely powerful acquired spiritual treasure.
What is particularly wonderful is that, unlike the innate spiritual treasures that are created by heaven and earth and have already been completely formed, this acquired spiritual treasure embryo can be precisely controlled when filling the materials into the final product.
For example, the Beiming Sword chosen by Lu Yi, if the sword owner's physical strength is weak, you can fill it with three to five hundred kilograms of materials and it can still take shape.
If the sword master has great physical strength, and you fill it with materials worth three to five hundred dragons, it can also be transformed into a magical weapon of the same grade, but with increased weight and strength.
If the sword master's physical strength is abnormal, even reaching the Wanxiang-level physical brute force of Lu Yi, you can fill the sword embryo with a thousand elephants of material, and the embryo can easily bear it and adjust the filled material to the most perfect state by itself.
For the same sword blank, if you fill it with three to five hundred kilograms of materials, the quality will obviously not be as good as that of three to five hundred dragon kilograms.
And if you fill it with materials from three to five hundred dragons, such a sword will be a rare divine weapon no matter where it is placed, and ordinary weapons can be easily cut in half with just one sword.
But when it encounters a 'monster-level heavy sword' like Lu Yu, which has been stuffed with a huge amount of materials like a thousand elephants, the one that will naturally be chopped apart is the 'poor, weak, and flimsy' unlucky creature that is 'only' filled with 'a mere three to five hundred dragons' worth of materials.
Of course, no matter how much material is filled, the power of this sword when releasing the "natural supernatural power" and "natural Taoism" is equal. Because the "Dao Law" and "Tao Rhyme Spirit" imprinted in this sword embryo by the Earth Lung Furnace are measured, and have nothing to do with the weight of the material filled after birth.
Looking at the three dazzling lights and shadows, Lu Yi couldn't help but take a breath, then he bowed solemnly to the sword-making masters and said, "Thank you for your help, Masters. When the treasure is completed, Zhishen will definitely reward you handsomely!"
While Lu Yi was making promises, Bai Yuan had already begun to take on the responsibility with the demeanor of an elder sister-in-law who is like a mother: "What are you talking about, brother Lu? They are from Jianmen, helping you do something, and they still dare to take benefits from you? I will chop off their hands!"
"But you guys should work harder and help Brother Lu and the three sisters to forge treasures this time. Whoever performs best will be given a Supreme Immortal Edict!"
The white turtle raised his little chin, and with his right hand he took out a folding fan from somewhere, and opened the fan with a "snap". There is no need to describe his majesty, his pride, and his arrogance!
Yin Yuan hurriedly hugged Bai Yuan's shoulders and whispered softly in her ear, "Good wife!"
Bai Yuan's face turned red with shame, and he punched Yin Yuan on the chest a few times: "You look so stupid... There are so many people here... We'll talk about it after we get back!"
Lu Yi turned his head silently without saying a word.
Masters like Han Que and Huo Yuan lowered their heads and looked at each other without saying a word.
Wutong Sou stared blankly at the couple, and suddenly strange words like "in broad daylight", "in the open world", "corrupting public morals", and "drowned in a pig cage" flashed through his mind.
Fortunately, the laughter of Qingyou and the other two girls broke the awkward silence.
"This set of Yiqi Sanyang Sword is destined to be with us sisters."
In the furnace where Qingyou and the other two girls were, three balls of gentle and warm red light lit up. The light balls were not big, but they illuminated the entire underground Earth Lung Furnace with a rising red light. Even the twelve gems that Wutong Sou used to protect everyone 30,000 miles deep underground, the dazzling purple and gold light was suppressed.
Wutong Old Man's eyes suddenly widened: "This Three Yang Sword, this is, this is..."
Bai Yuan looked at him with dissatisfaction: "My three sisters like these three swords, is there a problem?"
Wutong Sou's face twitched violently. He lowered his head and said dryly, "This was decided by Elder Luo for his beloved son Luo Xiu. He said... it was to be given to Luo Xiu as a gift when he condensed the Sword Heart Dao Fruit and held the Sword Heart Ceremony."
"So, although this set of sword embryos has only been formed for sixty years, Elder Luo ordered to draw the earth veins' vitality from the Earth Lung Furnace to warm it up. Therefore, the temperature of this set of One Qi Three Yang Swords is equivalent to being warmed in the Earth Lung Furnace for eighteen thousand years... This is already..."
"How dare you!" Before Wutong Sou could finish his words, Bai Yuan started to scold him: "You wantonly mobilize the earth vein energy of the Earth Lung Furnace to nourish the sword embryo related to your own son of a bitch. This is simply... Brother Yin, how should I put this?"
"Dereliction of duty, reckless behavior, abuse of power for personal gain, corruption and abuse of power... To put it mildly, this Elder Luo is too selfish, using his power to disrupt the sect's laws and regulations. He has done so many shameful and secretive things in the past." Yin Yuan said viciously, "To put it more seriously, this Earth Lung Furnace is one of the core lifelines of Jianmen, and he, an elder, actually dared to interfere with the operation of the furnace here... Didn't he tell my father-in-law about this?"
The white turtle blinked his eyes: "So?"
Yin Yuan drooped his eyelids and said in a low voice: "So, this Elder Luo did this without telling my father-in-law... The dignified head of Jianmen was actually deceived by the elder... This is rebellion, Xiaobai, my good wife... In the secular dynasty, this is a serious crime that will implicate the entire clan!"
Bai Yuan's expression also turned serious: "That's right, this is a rebellion! I will not let anyone involved in this matter go!"
The old man Wutong had already cast an edict and pulled the sword embryo of the Yiqi Sanyang Sword out of the furnace.
