The rag picking sister turned out to be a weapon refiner

After leaving the Yu Jian Sect with Gu Xunzhou, he came to the crater that Wen Zhao had prepared for him. Wen Zhao had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw the person coming, he went straight to greet him.

"Didn't you just come out of seclusion? Why don't you consolidate your cultivation before coming back?"

Hu Xingtong released the Qing Huan Sword and looked at the uninterested Gu Xunzhou and asked, "I'm about to start. Do you want to stay here and watch or..."

Wen Zhao didn't understand what was going on and just watched from the side.

Gu Xunzhou shook his head, his voice a little depressed: "No, I'll watch here and see him off for the last time."

Seeing that something was not right, Wen Zhao knew that he could not ask too many questions. He led people to a remote cave and handed the tea and snacks that had been prepared long ago to Gu Xunzhou. He did not say any words of comfort and just stayed with him quietly.

Seeing that the two were getting along well, Hu Xingtong no longer had any worries. He immediately took out Gu Qingzhe's body, spread a layer of white cloth on the ground, and gently placed the body on the ground. After clasping his hands together and praying devoutly, he removed the two ribs that were emitting golden light according to his wishes before his death.

The ribs feel a bit heavy in the hand, and their weight and composition are both solid and powerful.

After thinking for a while, Hu Xingtong looked at Gu Xunzhou and asked, "Do you plan to keep this spine with you, or should I bury it for you?"

Wen Zhao only then realized that Gu Xunzhou's relatives had died. Looking at the huge dragon bones, Wen Zhao began to guess about Gu Xunzhou's identity.

"Can I take it with me?" Gu Xunzhou asked, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Hu Xingtong pursed his lips and explained, "According to the customs of our human race, we should bury it, but according to the customs of your dragon race..."

[They made the best use of the remains. They either ate the bones of their dragon relatives themselves or used their spines to make weapons.] Knowing that Hu Xingtong didn't understand, Chen Wu also explained in time.

"Stay. The custom of the dragon clan is to absorb and refine the flesh and blood of the spine for their own use. If you are willing, you can stay and be my body in the future." Gu Xunzhou said, taking a sip of tea calmly, and he no longer looked depressed.

Seeing this, Hu Xingtong raised his eyebrows and looked at him with interest, thinking to himself: Maybe this is the self-healing ability of the dragon clan.

After getting the answer, Hu Xingtong kept the item. Thinking that such an important item should be handed over to Gu Xunzhou, he took out the Qing Huan Sword and placed a spatial formation on the hilt. He then gave Gu Xunzhou the method to activate the formation and said, "I'll give you the method to activate it. If you forget, this spine will always be in the Qing Huan Sword. If you meet him, go in and take a look."

"Well, thank you." Now that he had a place to go, Gu Xunzhou had no intention of staying any longer and went straight into the space on the hilt of the sword.

The matter is settled, and the next step is to refine the Dragon Soul Tea Spear and Zhaoyun Sword.

Wen Zhao also knew the process of things. He opened the barrier for Hu Xingtong with ease, and then went to the side to drink tea and wait.

Among the storage spiritual treasures given by Gu Qingzhe, there are many spiritual treasures suitable for refining spiritual weapons, including some spiritual treasure materials that were previously only available in the dragon clan.

However, these materials are very old and their quality is close to the ninth grade of the heavenly rank, and there is a tendency for them to move towards the best quality.

In this way, purification becomes relatively troublesome and takes more time.

It took Hu Xingtong two years to process all the materials.

Next, you need to fuse the materials with the Ming spear and add Gu Qingzhe's ribs, which increases the difficulty level.

The Ming Gun must have been used by many people of the Dragon Clan. The fighting spirit and gun energy are mixed. If it is directly integrated into the materials for refining, it will not be suitable for Gu Sihe to use later. Therefore, before that, Hu Xingtong also has to purify the breath in the Ming Gun, leaving only the purest fighting spirit and gun energy.

This process took another year.

Finally, when it came to the shaping stage, Hu Xingtong didn't want to design any complicated patterns anymore, so he simply continued to refine the patterns of the Ming spear.

In the end, the complete gun body has been initially formed, and the grade of the Dragon Soul Tea Gun has reached the highest level.

At this point, Hu Xingtong had finished refining. She needed to rethink the design of the array pattern. If there was any mistake, the power and effect it could provide to Gu Sihe would be greatly reduced.

The most important thing is that Hu Xingtong, who has refined so many weapons, felt for the first time that the Dragon Soul Tea Spear was the most difficult to refine. It is conceivable how much effort she has put in, and she needs a good rest before she can continue the seal carving work.

So, after a rest, Hu Xingtong began to design the array pattern on the gun body. Gu Sihe himself has a strong physical fitness. Overall, there are no shortcomings in his physical body and cultivation. The only shortcoming is the lack of knowledge about arrays or runes. Therefore, Hu Xingtong plans to add a universal array-breaking method to the Dragon Soul Tea Gun.

In this way, no matter what formation Gu Sihe encountered, he could break it with one shot, and he would not have ended up being seriously injured while trying to break the barrier that day.

Correspondingly, if there is a formation to break, there must be protective measures. For this, the pattern designed by Hu Xingtong is also a formation that combines defense and rebound.

Hu Xingtong expended immense effort in designing this dual array. She immersed herself in the world of array formations, pondering and calculating day and night, striving to maximize the effectiveness of each rune while also perfectly integrating it into the Dragon Soul Tea Spear.

Wen Zhao, observing this, though unsure of the details, knew it must be an extremely difficult task. He quietly prepared everything Hu Xingtong needed, occasionally bringing her some fresh fruits and snacks, hoping to bring her some comfort.

Time flowed by like flowing water. Another spring and autumn passed, and Hu Xingtong finally completed the design of the array pattern for the Dragon Soul Tea Spear. Complex patterns swirled across the spear, gleaming with a faint aura, like the majesty and dominance of a born king.

She nodded in satisfaction and immediately began the final seal carving. The Scanning Eye activated simultaneously, and Hu Xingtong held her breath and concentrated. The carving knife in her hand, condensed with spiritual power and strange fire, moved across the gun like a dragon, each stroke condensing her painstaking efforts.

Finally, on a moonless night, the last array pattern of the Dragon Soul Tea Spear fell, and the entire spear body instantly burst into dazzling light, and a majestic momentum emanated from it, soaring straight into the sky.

A relieved smile appeared on Hu Xingtong's tired face. She knew that at this moment, the Dragon Soul Tea Spear had truly completed its transformation and became a top-grade spiritual weapon that could stand out from the crowd.

When Wen Zhao saw that she had finished refining, he stepped forward skillfully to check the grade of the magic weapon, and finally concluded that the grade of the Dragon Soul Tea Spear had reached the eighth grade, second only to the recast Qing Huan Sword, and ranked second among all the spiritual weapons of Gu Xing.

Upon hearing this, Hu Xingtong was extremely pleased. She felt that the time she had spent designing and forging the spear had paid off. She gently stroked the spear, feeling the power within, and an indescribable sense of accomplishment welled up in her heart. She then stored the Dragon Soul Tea Spear in her storage ring, preparing to give Gu Sihe a big surprise when she returned.
