Chapter 246 The Wood Spirit Returns Home (shuhaige.net)
The second basement level is the weapon-refining room.
Although Xu Changqing’s cultivation level was only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.
However, his weapon-refining skills have been upgraded to the maximum level, which is called “Mastery”.
Therefore, the variety of magical artifacts that can be crafted has become much richer.
As per Li Sancai’s previous request, the second magical artifact should ideally be of a defensive type.
Currently, there are five types of magical artifacts to choose from.
They are:
Green Vine Dragon-Binding Staff
Tree of Life
Wood Spirit Homecoming Ring
Vine Dragon Lock
Thorn trap
The second magical artifact is a passive defensive item, leaning towards recovery.
The fifth magical artifact is an active defensive item, but it also leans towards a support role.
The other three items, in addition to their defensive capabilities, also possess offensive capabilities.
Xu Changqing squinted his eyes, pondering to himself. After a while, he muttered to himself, “Considering that Senior Brother Li is gradually unlocking the Sixth Attribute, the second new spiritual artifact must not be too obvious. So, the only options left are the Wood Spirit Homecoming Ring on his wrist and the Thorn Beast-Catching Net that can be put away.”
After much deliberation, he decided on the Wood Spirit Homecoming Ring.
This magical artifact is of a higher grade than the Green Wood Needle.
When not in use, you can wear it on your wrist.
When needed, it can also be released to actively attack and bind targets.
Wood Spirit Homecoming Ring
Effect 1: Using spiritual power, ten sharp wooden cones condense from the ring on the wrist.
Effect 2: The wooden cone releases a trace amount of paralyzing toxin, reducing the target’s movement speed.
Effect 3: When the three rings are combined, they release a cyan-green explosive ball.
Effect 4: When attacked, it will release a semi-transparent green shield.
Effect 5: The shield will convert a portion of the absorbed damage into healing energy.
These are the five effects that come with successful refining.
It can both attack and defend, making it an all-rounder in offense and defense.
If you have a large number of spirit runes, you can also add extra special effects.
In terms of materials, it is mainly made of two types.
The main material is a type of nephrite called jadeite.
Secondly, there is the essence of wood from trees that are over a hundred years old.
Moreover, it must be a whole piece of wood spirit marrow; only in this way can they communicate with each other.
Otherwise, its power and recovery ability would be greatly weakened.
Xu Changqing has jade, and more than one piece.
But I don’t have any Wood Spirit Marrow; I haven’t used it before when refining weapons.
Therefore, he first took out the jade and soaked it in clean spring water.
He then took out a communication talisman and began to infuse it with wood elemental power as he walked out.
“Senior Brother Xu?”
“Lin An, are you busy?”
“It’s alright. What can I do for you?”
“I need Wood Spirit Marrow, and it has to be a complete piece of Wood Spirit Marrow that is a hundred years old.”
“Okay, I’ll buy it for you right away!”
It has to be said that Lin An is now Xu Changqing’s best helper.
From the moment I joined until now.
He’s out and about every day, busy buying medicinal herbs with yang properties.
With his help, a large number of acquisitions have been made.
Next, all I need to do is find some time to refine the pills.
After the communication ended, Xu Changqing put away the communication talisman.
Then he took a rocking chair, placed it by the door, and lay down on it to wait patiently.
Outside, cicadas chirped incessantly.
The spiritual plants looked a little wilted under the scorching sun.
Summer can easily make people lazy.
It is especially pleasant when a cool breeze blows.
Xu Changqing squinted his eyes, sipping his finest yellow rice wine while studying the Green Wood Fire-Inducing Technique.
And so, we waited for about three hours.
I waited from daytime until night.
Lin An then rode his flying paper crane to arrive.
Judging from his hurried and flustered appearance, he was clearly not slacking off.
Xu Changqing waved: “Just in time for lunch.”
Lin An hurriedly took out a complete piece of Wood Spirit Marrow from his storage bag: “This stuff is really hard to buy. I contacted several spirit farmers and went to the trading point of Nongxin Society in Red Maple Valley Market before I finally found a piece of Wood Spirit Marrow that suits your needs.”
Xu Changqing took it and examined it carefully, even scanning it deeply with his spiritual sense. He then nodded slightly: “The quality is indeed quite good.”
Lin An chuckled and then picked up his bowl and chopsticks: “I’m glad you’re satisfied.”
Xu Changqing carefully put away the Wood Spirit Marrow, personally poured him a cup of top-grade spirit rice wine, and then asked, “I heard that the preliminary rounds of the formal disciple competition are about to end?”
Lin An nodded hurriedly: “Yes, it should be around these next few days.”
Xu Changqing then asked, “How many people on the list I gave you advanced?”
Lin An took a small sip of the premium spirit rice wine, savoring the long-lost taste, and replied, “Hu Bugui, Zhao Ziyue, Bai Ling’er, and Bai Zhu’er have been eliminated.”
Chu Qiu, Li Sancai, and Zhang Xue have successfully advanced.
His role outside.
One is running errands.
Another one is to gather information.
Because Xu Changqing’s attention was focused on him, he asked Lin An, who was running around outside, to gather some information.
A list was compiled of everyone who was familiar with and participated in the formal disciple competition.
So far, those who have advanced and those who have been eliminated in the preliminary rounds are exactly as he imagined.
Of course, Zhao Ziyue’s situation is more complicated.
He had been holding back some of his strength and could have potentially advanced to the semi-finals.
Unexpectedly, the final opponent possessed a magical artifact worth eight hundred mid-grade spirit stones.
This resulted in them losing the match despite having the advantage of having a superior spiritual root and a counteracting elemental affinity.
The two then ate their meal and chatted casually.
Xu Changqing now has a relatively clear understanding of the recent events and the current situation at the core of the Spirit Field.
Just as they were finishing their meal, Lin An suddenly remembered something and immediately slapped his forehead: “I almost forgot!”
“What?” Xu Changqing looked at him in confusion.
林安立马说道:“最近有消息,说是灵田核心处的管理层有人员变动,排第一的荣家、排第二的张家,现在都跃跃欲试。”
对此,徐长青倒不是很在意:“这些和我一点关系都没有。”
林安却意味深长地说:“徐师兄虽然不在意,可那些被您带进灵田核心处的人,倒是非常上心呢。”
此话一出,徐长青愣住:“徐林山他们?”
林安给予肯定:“据我所知,这些人在帮您造势。”
徐长青若有所思:“有段时间没和他们见面了。”
等吃饱喝足,又聊完天。
林安主动离开,然后朝自己的土屋走去。
结果打开门一看,发现里面多了许多新东西。
床换了新的,更柔软、更大。
家具换了新的,数量更多、更精致。
谁会这么干?
结果显而易见!
林安扭头看向对面的石屋,双眼已经湿润,泪水在眼眶里打转。
自从两人签下血契后,他自认为是徐长青的仆人,又或者管家。
可没想到,这段时间接触下来,非但没欺辱过自己,反而格外的照顾。
若换成别人,尤其地火区那位炼丹师,情况可想而知。
