Chapter 213 Top-Grade Blood Gourd

Time has come for the third time to refine the Blood Gourd.

When a slight “humming” came from the mold, Xu Changqing quickly drew away the surrounding heat and then slowly opened it.

Soon, the familiar blood-red gourd appeared before their eyes.

This time, every aspect, including time, temperature, and ingredients, has been meticulously prepared.

To his surprise, there were exactly four spirit runes, no more and no less.

Three blood gourds.

The first one takes the longest, has the most ingredients, and has average temperature control.

The second one takes a little less time, uses fewer ingredients, and has more precise temperature control.

The third one, in particular, is superior to the previous two in almost every aspect. It is the product of a phased summary. Logically speaking, even if the quality has not changed, the number of spirit patterns should be greater.

Xu Changqing never expected that there would be four identical spirit patterns. He immediately frowned: “Is it that this gourd can only have four spirit patterns, or… is there some problem that I haven’t noticed?”

At this moment, the three blood gourds, resembling triplets, were placed in front of them.

In terms of size, shape, appearance, spiritual patterns, and quality, they are virtually indistinguishable.

Although four spirit runes are not a small number, it already qualifies as a high-quality spirit weapon.

However, compared to what Xu Changqing wanted—a top-grade spiritual weapon—it was still far from meeting the requirements. It would need at least seven or more spiritual runes to be acceptable.

After all, the more spirit patterns you have, the more runes and formations you can carve, and the stronger the ordinary and special effects you will have.

Since it’s for my own use, I absolutely cannot be perfunctory.

Xu Changqing took a deep breath, squinted his eyes, and tried to calm himself down.

Then, try to recall as much information as possible about refining the Blood Gourd.

Material proportions.

Flame temperature.

Refining time.

They carefully considered each one.

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something.

Compared to others, his fire elemental root is quite unique.

It belongs to the mutated fire spirit root.

It possesses not only the intensity of fire but also the ferocity of thunder.

In particular, thunder also has the effect of suppressing evil spirits and eliminating malevolent forces.

Xu Changqing suddenly realized: “The properties of this blood gourd are more inclined towards yin and evil, so my thunder and fire spiritual root has a certain restraining effect.”

He spread out his right hand, and the fire elemental power in his dantian continued to be consumed.

Instantly, his palm turned bright red, and soon a ball of crimson flame emerged.

The Nine Flames Mystic Art has a total of nine types of flames, the first of which is the Crimson Flame, which has the effect of breaking shields.

Soon, the crimson flames transformed into orange, bewitching flames, which had a deceptive and disruptive effect.

It then grew brighter and brighter, transforming into a third type of yellow fire, known as the Righteous and Evil Yang Fire.

The third type of flame, in particular, perfectly matches the evil-suppressing and demon-quelling attributes of the Thunderfire Spirit Root.

If one has an ordinary fire spirit root, refining a blood gourd is definitely not a problem.

However, apart from the second type of orange fire, both the first type of red fire and the third type of yellow fire naturally restrain the evil attributes of the blood gourd.

Perhaps, that’s the problem.

Because of the flames, the Blood Gourd can only display four spirit patterns.

Thinking of this, Xu Changqing quickly transformed the flame into a second type, the Bewitching Illusionary Flame.

Although it does not lean towards the attributes of evil or yin.

But it lacks neither the ferocity of red fire nor the fierceness of yellow fire.

It’s just right.

Therefore, Xu Changqing did not hesitate and decisively used the Bewitching Illusionary Flame to begin the fourth refining process.

He has mastered the techniques of timing, temperature, and materials.

It was late at night.

Whether it’s Want Want, Pearl Chicken, Fortress, or Lin An sleeping on the floor on the first floor, they are all resting.

Only in the weapon-refining room on the second basement floor, Xu Changqing’s eyes remained bright, showing no signs of drowsiness.

The artifact mold emitted a slight “humming” sound for the fourth time.

He quickly extinguished the continuously burning Bewitching Illusion Fire and then opened the mold.

The blood-red gourd inside remained unchanged, almost the same as before.

The moment the spirit runes appeared, Xu Changqing was incredibly excited.

How many?

Seven in total!

Sure enough, the number of spirit patterns did change after the flame was changed.

As we all know, having 1 to 3 spirit runes is considered normal.

Four to six items are considered high-quality.

Seven criteria just meet the minimum requirements for a top-grade spiritual weapon.

This means that seven types of runes can be inscribed.

As for formations, at least three types can be inlaid.

Because Xu Changqing does not have an earth elemental root, he is unable to embed an array on it.

Therefore, he immediately took out a jade carving knife and began to carve the runes he was familiar with.

As time went by, one, two… seven runes were inscribed one by one.

The sky outside was already beginning to lighten.

The sun will rise in a little while.

Xu Changqing had become obsessed with weapon crafting.

He already has obsessive-compulsive disorder.

If there’s even the slightest dissatisfaction, we’ll start over.

Other weapon refiners might take a break after refining a weapon once.

But he would not give up until he achieved his goal.

That is why the Seven-Patterned Blood Gourd can be refined.

Spiritual Artifact: Blood Absorption Gourd

Quality: Top Grade

Spiritual Pattern 7: Wood Consolidation Pattern, Blood River Storage Pattern, Three Yin Spirit Devouring Pattern, Blood Fiend Soul Refining Pattern, Corroding Bone Heart Corrosion Pattern, Blood Shadow Escape Pattern, Blood Curse Soul-Binding Pattern

Effect 1: Sturdy

Effect 2: Storage

Special Effect 1: Refining

Special Effect 2: Absorption

Why are there several runes that look similar?

This is because the Three Yin Devouring Spirit Pattern, Blood Fiend Refining Soul Pattern, Corroding Bone Corroding Heart Pattern, and Blood River Storing Essence Pattern form a closed loop of devouring, refining, and feeding back.

In other words, when Xu Changqing absorbs a living creature into the Blood Gourd, he can not only refine the creature into blood, but also restore his physical strength, spiritual power, and energy through the process of feeding back into it.

This is the extraordinary power of runes and formations.

The Blood Gourd, aided by the spiritual runes, became a vessel.

The more effects one endures, the more extraordinary one’s abilities become.

Therefore, the higher the quality of a magical artifact, the more sought after it becomes.

Xu Changqing quickly left the dual imprints of blood and spiritual consciousness, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief: “Alright, alright, finally feeling better!”

For people with obsessive-compulsive disorder, whether it’s alchemy or weapon crafting, it’s a bittersweet experience.

Nowadays, ranged attacks can be achieved with top-tier magical artifacts, such as the Instant Flash Green Wood Needle.

Closer up, there’s an even more disgusting top-grade spiritual artifact: the Blood-Absorbing Gourd.

However, this thing cannot be shown off normally, as it can easily cause misunderstandings.

Although the Immortal Sect has no explicit rule saying that one cannot use things that are yin or evil.

However, if a stranger sees it, it can easily affect their first impression.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Changqing stretched.

Instantly, his whole body crackled and popped.

Sensing the limited fire elemental power in his dantian, he immediately walked towards the ground.

Lin An, who was sleeping on the floor, immediately opened his eyes upon hearing the noise: “Senior Brother Xu?”

Xu Changqing glanced at him, then instructed, “I need to rest during the day. When Wu Guangman and the others arrive, treat them the same as before.”

“Okay.” Lin An nodded slightly.

Xu Changqing thought for a moment and then instructed, “Today, we must build your house. You are, after all, a cultivator in the Qi Refining stage. There is no need for you to sleep on the ground!”
