Legend of Mir 2: Seeking the Truth in Marfa

Chapter 285 Smelting Equipment

Brooke had completed all the Demon Temple Trial quests. Wenren Muyue had been waiting for a long time. As a mage, her group attack skills could kill the monsters in the quest faster.

"Have you finished? What level are your Vajra Body and Blood Demon Body at now?" Wenren Muyue asked.

“金刚之体3级，加了14点防御和10点魔御。血魔之体5级，加了189点生命值。”

"My Diamond Body is also level 3, with 10 defense and 12 magic defense. My Blood Demon Body is already level 6, but I'm a mage, so the health I added isn't as much as yours. I only added 112 health points."

It turns out that the defense and magic resistance attributes added by the Diamond Body are slightly different for different professions.

The difference in Blood Demon Essence is even greater. Just like when leveling up, different classes gain different amounts of health. Basically, a Taoist priest gains twice as much health as a mage; by inference, a warrior's health is at least three times that of a mage.

The reason why Wenren Muyue's Blood Demon Body can reach level 6 is because she has completed more Bravely Break Through the Heavenly Gate missions than Brook, so she has more Blood Demon Essence.

However, the attributes added by each profession for jade pendants and formations are the same.

"My sister said that after reincarnation, the equipment gap between cultivators is limited. The strength mainly comes from the difference in levels of the four types of demon-slaying trials: jade pendants, formations, blood demons, and diamonds." Wenren Muyue said.

"Can these four demon-slaying materials only be obtained through daily tasks?" Brook asked.

"There are two ways to obtain jade pendant fragments and formation spirits. One is daily quests, and the other is that the Imperial Chamber of Commerce regularly puts some jade pendants and formation materials on the auction house. However, the prices are quite high. And once they are put on the market, they will be immediately snatched up by cultivators, especially the senior cultivators of the three major families. We can give it a try when the next one is put on the market."

"As for the Blood Demon Essence and Diamond Body, there are also two ways to obtain them. One is the daily task, and the other is to obtain them by smelting equipment in the Furnace of Heaven and Earth." Wenren Muyue replied.

"When smelting equipment in the Heaven and Earth Furnace, besides producing crystals, can one also obtain materials for the Blood Demon and Diamond Body?"

"Yes. When smelting equipment, in addition to the materials of Blood Demon and Diamond Body, you can also obtain Spirit Gathering Beads, Creation Stones, and Awakening Stones worth 100 million experience points. As for the crystallization you mentioned, it is a very low probability event. In addition to crystallization, there are even rarer Enlightenment Marks. It is even said that 6 large gems can be smelted out of the furnace!" Wenren Muyue explained.

"Creation Stone? Awakening Stone?" Brook was a little confused. What kind of item was this?

"The Creation Stone is used to forge equipment. Remember, during the Underground Palace Trial, the points for 1st and 2nd rank weapons and clothing were the same as for jewelry. However, the points for Taurus weapons and clothing were three times that of similar jewelry, reaching 3 points."

"Yes, I remember. Why?"

"Because the monsters in the Dragon Empire can drop jewelry like Domination and Legendary, but for some reason, weapons and clothing above Domination never drop from monsters. To obtain Domination weapons, you can only use 3rd-level Taurus weapons and combine them with materials like Creation Stones. That's why Taurus weapons and clothing are so expensive."

"I see. What about the Awakening Stone?"

"Awakening Stones are used to awaken the six special item levels: Jade Pendant, Hat, Veil, Shield, Healing Stone, and Medal."

"There are also shields, healing stones, and medals?" Brook was a little confused. There were actually new items.

"Yes. These are relatively high-level and rare items. Shields and medals only drop in the three underground palace hidden maps. The drop rate is very low, so not just anyone can obtain them. As for the Healing Stone, it is an item that is even more advanced than the Magic Blood Stone and restores health and mana. You need to go to the Wolong Villa in the 3th level of the Companion Continent and complete a specific quest to obtain it. At present, it is not convenient for us to go there with our strength."

"I understand. That is to say, the furnace equipment can obtain a lot of useful materials. So what are we waiting for? The Heaven and Earth Furnace is so good, let's try it out quickly!" Brook said.

"Then we have to buy some fire dragon equipment first." Wenren Muyue said.

"Do I need Fire Dragon equipment? I have a lot of War God-level equipment saved up."

"War God equipment is fine, but the chances of smelting out materials are very low. Fire Dragon equipment or above is best."

"Okay. Let's go to the auction house and buy some Fire Dragon equipment."

"kindness."

"Oh, I almost forgot. Wait a minute. I haven't paid today's tax yet. I heard that the head tax for people after the first transfer is twice as expensive as that for newcomers." Brooke said.

"No need to pay. You are now a member of the Wenren family. The family will pay for us on time every day at noon. You don't have to pay."

"Is it that good?" Brooke asked in surprise. He had never thought that after joining the family, there would be such benefits.

"Of course! The welfare of my Wenren family is very good!" Wenren Muyue said proudly.

So they went to the auction house again. They'd both made a small fortune during the underground palace trials, and each had bought over 20 Fire Dragon items, mostly at 10 Yuanbao each. They'd bought this much first to test the waters.

The two of them teleported to a manor on the First Level Companion Continent. It was already 3 p.m., and the manor was crowded with cultivators. A number of people had gathered around the Heaven and Earth Smelting Furnace, some lining up to use the furnace, while many more were simply spectators.

Brook and the other man also came over.

The Furnace of Heaven and Earth was enormous, estimated to require ten people holding hands to embrace it. It had three openings, meaning it could be used by three people simultaneously. The three people were blocked from view by the furnace, unable to see the equipment in the other furnaces or the resulting items. Only the onlookers behind them could discern the contents of the smelted items by the glow they emitted.

"Just now, that guy at the southwest furnace melted over eight fire dragons, but nothing came out. He ran away covered in dust, haha!"

"Hehe~ The guy at the Southeast Furnace Mouth was the same. He gave me over 10 Fire Dragon equipment and only got one Spirit Gathering Orb. He was so furious that he went straight back to the city."

"They just don't have the foresight to do that. Didn't you see the guy in the north? He melted 12 fire dragons, 4 cloud powers, and 2 golden bulls, and ended up giving 8 creation stones. He just waved his sleeves and walked away calmly, as if nothing had happened."

"So calm? He must be rich, amazing!"

"Tsk tsk, look, another one goes down and leaves empty-handed."

"What's going on today? The probability of smelting and shipping is so low."

"Maybe this is a bad time."

There were constant sighs from the crowd.

Several monks who were queuing up in front to smelt equipment began to hesitate, and felt that their luck was not good during this period of time, so they all left the team and wanted to observe the situation for a while.

It was Brooke and Wenren Muyue's turn. They lined up in the same queue, shared the same furnace entrance, and walked up together.

Brooke went first. He took out his equipment from his backpack and threw it into the furnace of heaven and earth to smelt it one by one.

"Huh? Wenren Muyue and Brook? Aren't these the first and second place winners of this Underground Palace Trial?"

"It's really the Wenren family that ranked first in the Underground Palace Trial. Hehe, let's see how lucky these two are."

"Sigh, I've melted 7 or 8 pieces of equipment and still got nothing. This has happened multiple times in a row. It seems Brook's luck is pretty average."

"It seems that what he smelted was not a fire dragon, but ordinary war god equipment."

"Green glimmer, this is the Spirit Gathering Pearl, 100 million experience points. Yes, War God equipment can also be shipped."

"Another spirit gathering bead."

"The third Spirit Gathering Pearl! The War God's equipment can produce so many things, it's amazing!"

"Look, he wants the Molten Dragon gear."

"White glimmer, looks like 4 Creation Stones, not a bad loss."

"A faint blue glow, this time it's the Awakening Stone."

"Spirit Gathering Pearl."

"Creation Stone! Continuous shipment!"

"Another Spirit Gathering Pearl! How many are there?"

"Red light! This is the crystal of fire!"

"Oh my god! There's more? This time it's blue light, ice crystal! He made a killing!"
