Searching for the best path, starting from Renjia Town

Chapter 137 Fire Bell Curse, First Refining

"Look, these are the books that talk about weapon refining techniques, and the talismans engraved on them."

After the evil baby was dealt with, he returned to Zhe Gu and learned about Li Kunshan's original intention. Zhe Gu immediately took out the weapon refining books in her collection.

"Also, I'll teach you a Fire Bell Spell."

"Fire Bell Curse?"

"This is a spell to summon and control fire. Besides fighting, it's best used for refining weapons."

"Thank you, Aunt Sugar!"

"Why are you being so polite? We're just friends."

Zhe Gu smiled teasingly and immediately explained the Fire Bell Curse to Li Kunshan in detail.

"Okay, I remember."

The entry for [Inner Spirit] is on the Blood God Son. It is impossible for him to learn this spell in a short period of time based on his own understanding, so Li Kunshan simply memorizes it first.

The goal had been achieved, so Li Kunshan did not delay any longer and said goodbye to Zhe Gu and Nian Ying.

He did not go to Wen County immediately, but went back to Hehuan Town on the way.

"Daoyou are back."

When he got home at night, Xue Shenzi was practicing his magic. When he saw Li Kunshan come in, he stood up and greeted him.

Then he sat back down and continued practicing.

Li Kunshan curled his lips, he really is a crazy cultivator.

"Stop for a moment and take a look at these books first."

Li Kunshan interrupted the Blood God Son and took out the weapon refining books.

"it is good."

Blood God Son did not ask any questions. He just did what Li Kunshan instructed him to do. He opened the book and began to read carefully.

After a day's journey, Li Kunshan went to wash and change his clothes first.

When I came back an hour later, Xue Shen Zi had already started reading the second book.

"Oh, there's also a Fire Bell Spell. Let me tell you about it."

Immediately afterwards, Li Kunshan explained to Blood God Son the method of practicing the Fire Bell Curse.

The Blood God put down the book and began to practice the Fire Bell Spell.

After finishing the teaching, Li Kunshan ignored it and sat cross-legged on the bed, starting to refine his Qi and transform his spirit.

【Learn the Fire Bell Spell! 】

About two hours later, the system prompt sounded.

"So fast?"

When I opened my personal page, I found a new item called 'Fire Bell Spell' in the talisman column.

Li Kunshan couldn't help but smile. For the first time, he realized from a third-person perspective how incredible his talent for cultivation was.

Looking at the Blood God Son next to him, after he had mastered the Fire Bell Curse, he picked up the weapon refining book to read.

Li Kunshan nodded. What a cultivation machine! He didn't interrupt him and continued to refine his Qi and transform his spirit.

Everyone practiced their own thing and didn't talk all night.

The next morning, Li Kunshan stretched and got up.

I saw the Blood God Son sitting aside, refining his Qi and transforming it into a spirit.

"Why don't you read the book?"

"I've finished reading it."

The Blood God Son closed his eyes and answered.

"finish watching."

Li Kunshan blinked and asked tentatively.

"Learned it?"

"Yes."

"real or fake?"

"real."

"Great!"

Li Kunshan's face was filled with joy. He was worthy of being the [Weapon Refining Master] with the purple title. He learned how to refine weapons in just one night!

Then he was eager to try again and tried to speak in a calm tone.

"Want to try?"

"it is good."

The Blood God then opened his eyes, stood up, and stretched out his hand.

"Material."

"What material? Oh, yes."

Li Kunshan was slightly stunned, and then slapped his forehead again, wondering how could he have forgotten about this in such a happy mood.

Unlike cultivation, refining equipment of course requires materials.

As a magical instrument, ordinary copper and iron are definitely not enough. Even if copper and iron are used, they are the best metals that have been refined from several tons.

After a moment of hesitation, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Can I use other magical tools?"

"If it's broken down into its components, it's bound to wear out. If it's re-refined, the general direction won't change."

"Who cares? I'm just practicing for fun."

Li Kunshan smiled, then rummaged through the drawers and took out two knives.

It was the demon sword Hirumaru and the blade Phantom Sword that were obtained when they killed the ninjas of Higayama and cleaned up the battlefield.

“These two…”

The Blood God Son picked it up and looked at it, then spoke directly.

"The quality is a bit low, but if you just refine it casually, it's not bad."

"That's it."

Li Kunshan said that he was refining it for fun, but after all, it was his first time to refine a weapon, so he actually had great expectations in his heart.

After pondering for a while, Li Kunshan suddenly became serious.

“What if we add this one?”

He took out another brass sword, which was the magic sword given by Master Xuanyi!
As the magic sword used by Master Xuanyi when he was young, it is extremely powerful.

However, Li Kunshan had acquired it too recently and had not had time to nurture it.

This magic sword is good, but it is a second-hand item that has been used by someone else. It’s not that second-hand items are not good, but that they may not be suitable for Li Kunshan.

Wouldn't it be better if it could be recast and become a magical weapon that is truly suitable for Li Kunshan?

In fact, these are all excuses. To put it bluntly, it was his first time refining a weapon, and Li Kunshan wanted to do something big.

"This magic sword is very good."

Holding it in his hands and examining it, Blood God nodded.

"If this sword is recast, it will surely become a powerful magical weapon."

"That's all you need to say!"

As if a reassurance had been given to him, Li Kunshan heaved a sigh of relief and then asked another question.

"How long will it take to refine it?"

"Three days."

"Three days?"

Li Kunshan widened his eyes, it was so short.

You know, refining equipment is a tedious, complicated and meticulous job.

Not to mention Taoist magic weapons, even the magic weapons from the alien world cannot be refined in a few days.

"If I were to refine a completely new magical weapon, three days would naturally not be enough. However, if I were to fuse and recast several magical weapons, I already have a ready-made mold, so it wouldn't take much time."

Seeing Li Kunshan's confusion, Blood God Son explained briefly.

Li Kunshan still curled his lips. Even so, three days was too exaggerated.

A big part of the reason is probably the purple [Weapon Refining Master] entry. If one is not far superior to ordinary people, how can he be called a master?

"Okay! Start practicing immediately!"

Why think so much? Anyway, you can make it in three days.

Li Kunshan originally planned to hand over the weapon refining book to Blood God Son and then set off for Wen County.

Now it seems that it doesn’t matter if we wait three more days.

After all, Commander Gu’s house in Wen County has been haunted for a few days, so these three days won’t make a difference.

"it is good."

The Blood God nodded, picked up the magic sword and two samurai swords, and began to refine them immediately.

Li Kunshan was a little curious at first and wanted to see how to refine magic weapons.

But at the beginning, it was just about inserting various hand seals and talismans, which was similar to the preliminary preparation work, which was really boring.

Li Kunshan shook his head and went back to his room to refine his Qi and transform his spirit.

Next, the Blood God was refining the weapon while Li Kunshan was practicing his magic in the room.

Three days passed in a flash. "I'm done practicing."

At noon that day, Li Kunshan was practicing when the voice of the Blood God Son suddenly came from outside.

"Great!"

Li Kunshan immediately opened his eyes and got out of bed with excitement on his face.

As he walked out, he couldn't wait to ask.

"What kind of magical weapon have you refined?"

"sword."

The Blood God Son stood in the yard, his voice strong and powerful, and continued to explain.

"The three magical instruments used as raw materials are all swords, so it is most appropriate for the new magical instrument to be in the shape of a sword."

"good very good!"

As a time traveler, who doesn’t love swords!
As he spoke, he came to the yard, and when he saw the magic sword in the hands of the Blood God, Li Kunshan was stunned.

It's called a sword, but it looks more like a mace.

Did I hear it wrong just now?
The blade, including the handle, was no more than three feet long, a little shorter. It had no blade, four edges, was as thick as a child's arm, and was dark yellow throughout.

The so-called mace is actually a kind of copper and iron whip similar to a bamboo joint, which was used by ancient generals to break armor.

Qin Qiong used this kind of weapon, but Qin Qiong used two maces, while Xue Shen Zi only had one.

"Are you sure this is a sword, not a mace?"

"It's a sword."

The Blood God nodded, pronouncing the four tones in a very standard manner, and then added another sentence.

"Talisman Sword."

“There are indeed a lot of talismans.”

Li Kunshan reached out to take it, looked it up and down and nodded.

The sword has four edges, with nine soul-calming talismans pasted on each side, for a total of thirty-six talismans.

It is not wrong to call it a talisman sword.

"alright."

Li Kunshan was too lazy to care too much about the appearance. Whatever the Blood God said was fine.

The key is the function, he asked quickly.

"This mace, no, this sword, how do you use it?"

"Use it directly."

The Blood God took it again, raised his hand and swung the sword.

Swish~!

A burst of sword energy was activated, stretching across the yard from east to west, plowing a mark more than half a meter deep.

This is because the Blood God has restrained himself, otherwise even the courtyard wall would have been split in half.

"good."

Li Kunshan's eyes burned and he nodded again.

He now believed that it was a sword.

This method is somewhat similar to the sword energy of the creatures from the alien world, but in comparison, it is more sharp and domineering!

Moreover, when the Blood Dropper released sword energy just now, Li Kunshan did not notice the fluctuation of qi and blood in his body.

"Could it be that this sword can release sword energy without consuming its own Qi and blood?"

"Indeed."

The Flying Guillotine nodded and spoke without waiting for Li Kunshan to ask any more questions.

"This sword also has a core that provides chi."

"What is it!"

"This is the second function of this sword, and it's actually its real function."

The Blood God Son had a serious expression and waved his hand again.

Ahhh~Ah~!

The next moment, dozens of evil spirits and ghosts emerged from the sword, roaring and sweeping around.

"This this……"

Li Kunshan opened his eyes wide and was speechless for a long time.

"How could there be evil spirits in this sword!"

"The true purpose of this talisman sword is to seal these evil objects."

The Flying Guillotine explained calmly.

"By sealing ghosts inside, you can harness their power and transform it into sword energy. The more ghosts you seal, the deeper your cultivation, and the stronger your sword energy. If it's a critical moment, you can directly release the ghosts and use them in combat. In addition, because of the talisman sword's protection, these ghosts will not be affected even during the day."

"Seal the ghost, release the ghost?"

Li Kunshan's eyes widened. Is this still a legitimate Taoist magic weapon? Why does it sound so evil?
After a moment, he managed to regain his composure and fell silent again.

The two Japanese samurai swords are fine, but the key point is that the master's magic sword has turned into this thing.

If the master knew about this, he would beat him to death.

"If I had known earlier, I should have separated these three magical instruments!"

Either the Hirudowa and the Phantom Sword should be forged together, or the magic sword should be forged separately. However, Li Kunshan did not think so much at the moment and mixed these good and evil magic weapons together.

Xue Shen Zi was also a fool. He knew that this situation might happen, but he did not remind Li Kunshan in advance.

The Blood God Son was serious and handed the sword back to Li Kunshan.

"Overall, this rune sword is pretty good."

"Talisman sword? Haha, isn't this the Ten Thousand Souls Banner?"

Li Kunshan took it again, smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Although it doesn't look like a proper magic weapon, I have to admit that its power is quite good in all aspects.

In particular, the more ghosts that are sealed and the higher their level of cultivation, the greater their power. Isn't the potential unlimited!

Of course, this is just theory.

If the sealed ghosts are too many and too powerful, the soul-calming talisman above will not be able to suppress them, and they may become uncontrollable.

But then again, why not just post a few more when the time comes? If thirty-six isn't enough, then one hundred and eight.

Moreover, by then, Li Kunshan's soul-calming talisman will be of a higher level, and the effect will naturally be better.

"By the way, seal these three in as well."

Li Kunshan suddenly remembered and took out the three bamboo tubes from his waist. They were the three evil babies.

After the evil baby was subdued, Zhe Gu handed it over to Li Kunshan, asking him to convert it and it would be counted as part of his Taoist merit.

Since the more ghosts the talisman sword collects, the stronger its power becomes, before saving them, let these three evil babies do some hard labor first.

"Take it~!"

It is actually very simple to use a talisman sword to capture ghosts, just one spell is enough.

Buzz~!

When the three evil babies were sealed in, the talisman sword vibrated slightly, and the overall aura instantly became several times stronger!
There were originally dozens of ghosts in the talisman sword, all of whom were from the demon sword Hirumaru, that is, people killed by Hirumaru.

Although he died suddenly, he was just an ordinary ghost after all. How could he be compared with this evil baby with deep resentment?

"It's really good."

Looking at the talisman sword whose power had greatly increased, Li Kunshan nodded, and suddenly he felt less repulsed.

Isn’t there a saying that swords are neither good nor evil, it all depends on who uses them and what they are used for.

He is an orthodox Xuanmen, and he uses this sword to slay evil and eliminate demons. This sword is the sword of righteousness!
What is the Ten Thousand Souls Banner? This is a genuine Taoist talisman sword!

"Sir, Xiaoli will definitely serve you well. Please don't put me into that sword."

Xiaoli's trembling voice came from the purse.

"Why would I take you in?"

Li Kunshan smiled and said, "Please hum."

Although the more ghosts the talisman sword captures, the more powerful it becomes, it does not capture all ghosts.

There are generally two things that Li Kunshan will not accept. One is good ghosts. Even though they are ghosts, as long as they do not harm people, as a disciple of Zhengyi, he will send them back to the underworld for reincarnation.

Secondly, extremely vicious ghosts will not be accepted. These ghosts have committed many evil deeds. In Li Kunshan’s opinion, there is no need for them to practice to atone for their sins. They can be killed directly to gain entries!
Therefore, only those ghosts who were restless but not guilty of capital crimes could be placed in the talisman sword. After they had done enough work for Li Kunshan, they would be released, offered sacrifices to eliminate their evil spirits, and sent to the underworld for reincarnation.

In fact, after being sealed in the talisman sword for so long, the evil spirit would probably be exhausted. After all, each of these swords was transformed by the evil spirit of the ghost.

Speaking of which, this talisman sword is also a magical tool for saving ghosts, which is great.

"So be it."

After refining the magic weapon, Li Kunshan packed up and gave some instructions to Blood God Son. Late that night, he left Hehuan Town again.

After walking for almost two days, we arrived in Wen County.

"This way..."

After asking around a bit, he headed straight to Commander Gu's residence.

According to Long Daguang, Commander Gu is very rich and he wants to make a big profit from him.

He just didn't know if this Commander Gu was the Gu Xuanwu he knew, and if that ghost was Yue Qiluo.
