There is no future for menial disciples? I draw talismans to achieve immortality

"Lolite?"

Looking at the black stone, Xu Changshou was a little surprised. Although he didn't know much about refining materials, he knew that anything that could make Xu Changshou praise it must be correct.

Bai Tongyuan weighed the stone with his hand and asked with a smile, "What are you going to make with it?"

Xu Changshou clasped his fists and said, "Uncle Bai, I intend to use this to refine a pseudo-magic weapon for defense."

Bai Tongyuan frowned upon hearing this and said, "I don't recommend you refine it into a defensive pseudo-magic weapon."

"Why?"

Bai Tongyuan smiled and said, "This thing is extremely hard. As far as the material itself is concerned, it has already exceeded the scope of a pseudo-magic weapon. Using it to refine a pseudo-magic weapon is really a waste."

Xu Changshou scratched his head: "Uncle Bai, what do you mean?"

Bai Tongyuan: "I suggest you keep it and use it to refine magical instruments in the future. This rock essence stone can actually be used as the main body of a magical instrument. For example, if you want to refine a flying sword, you can use rock essence stone to refine the sword body. The sword blade and sword tip require a harder material."

"That's it!"

Xu Changshou hesitated. It seemed that only by keeping it for refining magical instruments could he maximize the value of the Rock Essence Stone.

Bai Tongyuan threw the Rock Essence Stone to Xu Changshou: "Take it back and use it to refine a magical weapon."

Xu Changshou thought for a moment, then with a wry smile, he pushed the Rock Essence Stone in front of Bai Tongyuan: "Uncle Bai, please help me refine it into a defensive pseudo-magic weapon."

Bai Tongyuan frowned: "Didn't I tell you that it's better to keep the Rock Essence Stone for refining magic tools?"

Xu Changshou smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Bai, do you think it's possible for a chor disciple like me to achieve foundation building?"

"Forehead……"

Bai Tongyuan stopped talking, having forgotten that given Xu Changshou's condition, there was no chance that he would succeed in building his foundation.

Since you can’t successfully build the foundation, what’s the point of having magic tools?

Even if Xu Changshou had better materials at this time and could mix them with the rock essence stone to refine a magic weapon, the true power of the magic weapon could not be exerted in Xu Changshou's hands.

Instead of doing this, it is better to refine a defensive pseudo-magic weapon. The defensive pseudo-magic weapon refined by the rock essence stone is absolutely indestructible at the Qi Refining Stage.

Even a cultivator at the Qi Refining stage cannot destroy it using magic weapons.

Why not? There is no need to pursue higher-level magical instruments.

Bai Tongyuan instantly understood Xu Changshou's thoughts.

In fact, Xu Changshou didn’t think so. His determination to build his foundation had never changed.

But for now, building the foundation is a long way off, and there is no need for magic tools in the short term.

As the saying goes, good steel should be used on the blade. At this time, using rock essence stone to refine a defensive pseudo-magic weapon is in line with his current situation.

He has no shortage of spirit stones, and once he succeeds in building his foundation, he can definitely get better quality magical weapons.

"Okay, leave this thing here and come back to pick it up in half a month." Bai Tongyuan said this and stopped trying to persuade him.

Xu Changshou nodded: "Uncle Bai, how many spirit stones does it take to refine this defensive pseudo-magic weapon?"

"Eighty spirit stones."

"So expensive!"

Xu Changshou was surprised and whispered, "Uncle Bai, isn't your reward fifty yuan? How come it became eighty yuan?"

Bai Tongyuan glared and said dissatisfiedly: "For this price, it's up to you to refine it or not."

"Refine, refine, refine. I'll refine it. Uncle Bai, don't be angry." Xu Changshou said with an apologetic smile.

Bai Tongyuan's expression improved a bit, and he said, "I'll offer you fifty spirit stones as the starting price. The harder it is to refine, the higher the price. Your rock essence stone has a very high melting point, so refining it will take a lot of effort. Eighty spirit stones is already a great deal. If it weren't for the fact that you're a junior, I..."

"Uncle Bai, don't be angry. It's my fault for not knowing the rules and speaking too hastily. If you said eighty, then it's eighty. I won't give you a penny less." Xu Changshou continued to smile apologetically.

"That's pretty much it!"

Bai Tongyuan's expression finally returned to normal: "Don't stand there, go back and wait. You don't need to pay the spirit stones now. As usual, we will hand over the goods in half a month."

"Uncle Bai, I have something else to ask of you!"

"put!"

Xu Changshou said, "I also want a defensive robe, preferably one that can be worn inside, but I don't have the materials to make it. I'd like to use your materials, or buy a ready-made one from you. You decide the price."

During this battle with Zhu Biao, Xu Changshou realized the importance of defense, so he planned to put a lot of effort into defense.

Whether it is the Earth Gang Talisman or the defensive pseudo-magic weapon made from the Rock Essence Stone, they are enough to withstand the full force attack of a cultivator at the twelfth level of weapon refining.

But Xu Changshou still felt unsafe. After all, one only has one life, so the more defenses the better.

Bai Tongyuan looked at him with some disdain and said disdainfully, "Boy, what's wrong? You don't believe me, right? Let me tell you, this defensive pseudo-magic weapon I refined for you will be fine as long as you don't encounter a Foundation Establishment cultivator. Even if you are attacked by a magic weapon that has been refined to perfection, it will not be able to break your defense easily."

"No, absolutely not!"

Xu Changshou quickly waved his hands: "I have no doubts about your skills, but I am afraid of death, so I want to add a layer of insurance."

"You're really afraid of death!"

Bai Tongyuan shook his head slightly, then looked at Xu Changshou thoughtfully: "I say, kid, you made a fortune on this trip to Zhujiayao, and you made a fake defensive weapon and asked for a robe."

Xu Changshou smiled bitterly: "I haven't made a fortune, but I encountered danger this time, and it almost cost me my life, so I came to you. Even if it means risking all my wealth, I have to build up defenses."

"You kid, you're smart. Just wait."

Bai Tongyuan thought for a moment, then patted his storage bag and took out a red vest. The vest was shiny and it was unknown what it was made of.

"This inner armor is called the Red Guard Armor. It can withstand physical attacks of a thousand kilograms. This red inner armor is very popular, and many disciples are equipped with it."

Xu Changshou shook his head: "The defense is a bit weak, is there a better one?"

Bai Tongyuan said nothing, put away the Red Guard Armor, then took out a golden vest and said, "This item is called Golden Silk Armor, which can withstand the attack of a cultivator at the twelfth level of Qi Refining."

Xu Changshou still shook his head: "Is there anything better?"

"You kid, you don't even like the golden armor, look at this!"

Bai Tongyuan slapped his storage bag and took out a silver vest. The vest was soft and tough, and cold to the touch. You could tell it was not an ordinary item just by touching it.

"Uncle Bai, is this soft armor?"

Bai Tongyuan introduced, "This isn't just soft armor, it's also a defensive pseudo-magic weapon called Silver Armor. It's made from Silver Spider Silk. When it encounters an attack, simply input spiritual energy into it, and it will automatically form a protective shield to protect the entire body. Its defensive power is definitely not inferior to the defensive magic weapon made from your Rock Essence Stone."

"Okay, okay, I'll try!"

Xu Changshou was overjoyed and quickly put on the silver armor. After inputting spiritual energy, a layer of faint silver light enveloped his entire body.

"That's it, Uncle Bai. How much is it?"
