The rag picking sister turned out to be a weapon refiner

Gu Sihe and Hu Xingtong hadn't seen each other for a year and had a lot to talk about. Plus, Gu Sihe was a lively person, so she quickly became friends with Tan Yuruo. The three of them talked and laughed as they strolled around the market like close friends.

"By the way, have you two chosen your majors?" They hadn't seen each other for a year and hadn't sent each other messages, so no one knew each other's current situation.

"I haven't chosen yet, I don't know which one is suitable." Tan Yuruo replied.

"I chose the path of gun. What about you, Xingxing?" Gu Sihe looked at Hu Xingtong and asked.

Hu Xingtong scratched his head and replied, "I chose to refine weapons. This time I plan to come here to find some materials to refine weapons."

"What materials do you need?" Ye Nanhe interrupted the conversation at this time. She still had a good impression of Hu Xingtong, the little girl who called her sister in person.

Hu Xingtong thought about it and was not sure what materials she wanted. Although she had already planned to make her own natal weapon, there were still some discrepancies in the choice of materials. If possible, she still wanted to see it in person.

"I want to take a look. I'm not sure what materials to use yet. I just want to build a furnace for myself first."

According to the game's settings, the alchemists and weapon refiners in this world initially need to independently refine a furnace of their own. Originally, Hu Xingtong had no plans to build a furnace, because when she communicated with the system before, the system suggested that she try to use strange fire to directly quench the weapon, which would also avoid the characteristics added by the furnace affecting the composition, thereby improving the purity of the metal.

However, Hu Xingtong was still in the theoretical stage at that time and had not yet involved any practical application, so he did not take it seriously.

After hearing this, no one said anything. Ye Nanhe looked at Tan Yuruo and changed the subject, asking, "Is there nothing Yuruo likes?"

Tan Yuruo understood what Ye Nanhe was asking and thought for a moment before answering, "I was initially interested in beast taming, but I already had a pet and it wasn't convenient to raise another one, so I gave up. Later, I was very confused and didn't know what to choose."

"Then are you interested in talismans?" In the original setting of the game, Tan Yuruo finally chose talismans, and the talismans she wrote were very special. Some of them even did not require talisman paper to complete the seal writing. However, Hu Xingtong did not remember why Tan Yuruo chose talismans in the first place.

"Talismans? I've thought about it. I took a class before and I think it's okay. But I feel that it's a bit troublesome to draw on the talisman paper. If I don't have the talisman paper when I go out, I may not be able to use it." Tan Yuruo said what she was thinking, and it also made Hu Xingtong's eyes light up.

"You can try to simplify the steps of writing talismans without talisman paper. You can write talismans without talisman paper. You can write anytime and anywhere with spiritual power and spiritual awareness. Isn't this more convenient?"

If this is possible, then I can add multiple runes or array patterns to my spiritual weapon. If I can't see the runes, I can't access the characteristics. If I can hide the traces of spiritual consciousness, then my weapon should also have different powers and characteristics.

If we adapt to each person's characteristics to research suitable spiritual weapons, can we realize that the weapon is the body and the body is the weapon? Then can we cultivate ourselves through the cultivation device?

Hu Xingtong fell into her own thoughts. She felt that all this was feasible. Then why did the original Tan Yuruo in the game think of hiding the traces of the seal-writing talisman paper? It was because she was a killer and wanted to carry out an assassination.

Wow, Hu Xingtong felt that she had a direction instantly. Refining equipment was not only her strength but also her field. She felt that refining equipment was the most correct decision she had ever made.

Seeing that she was in a strange state, the four people did not disturb her and followed her silently. Tan Yuruo seemed to have an idea because of what Hu Xingtong said. For her, formations and martial arts were not the most suitable ways of practice. For a killer, the most important thing was killing and being invisible, so the method Hu Xingtong said might be the most feasible.

……

Later, Hu Xingtong had an idea and a basic goal. She looked at Ye Nanhe and asked, "Sister Ye, is there any large trading place here? I want to go and have a look." For no other reason, Hu Xingtong wanted to find out whether the Exchange Pavilion in the game also existed in this place. If so, she planned to cooperate with them. She would refine weapons for the other party, and the other party would provide her with clues to rare materials.

"Yes, the largest exchange here is Huanyi Pavilion, which has all kinds of rare materials and treasures, and Huanyi Pavilion is spread all over the continent. By the way, your eldest brother is also the nominal alchemist in Huanyi Pavilion. Half of the pills that appear in Huanyi Pavilion on weekdays are made by him." Ye Nanhe introduced.

Hu Xingtong looked at his senior sister, who nodded, "Indeed, if you need to earn spiritual jade in the future, you can also hand in your miscellaneous items to the Exchange Pavilion to sell. They are still very reliable."

At this point, Hu Xingtong had an idea in her mind, and she wanted to go and take a look first.

Hu Xingtong's eyes sparkled with excitement upon hearing this. She was eagerly anticipating the continent-wide chain of exchange pavilions. According to her previous understanding, in this gaming world, exchanging resources and information was a crucial path to increasing strength. Furthermore, acquiring domains and materials was also essential for further growth. Therefore, the exchange pavilion undoubtedly became the ideal third-party platform.

"That's great, Sister Ye. When can we go to Huanyi Pavilion?" Hu Xingtong asked anxiously. At the same time, he had already started thinking about how to use his refining skills to achieve a mutually beneficial cooperation with Huanyi Pavilion.

Ye Nanhe responded with a smile: "If it's convenient for you now, we can set off now. The Exchange Pavilion is not far from here, and it is open every day. You can go in to visit or trade at any time. Yu Ruo can also take a look at the strange talismans there and consider majoring in it."

Hu Xingtong and Tan Yuruo immediately nodded in agreement and turned to Han Qianyu and said, "Senior Sister, do you want to go with us?"

Han Qianyu thought for a moment and nodded in support, "Alright, let's go together. You can often find some good things in the Exchange Pavilion, and if you, Xingtong, plan to become a weapon refiner in the future, it would be beneficial to establish connections with them. As for Yuruo, you can take a look first and give it careful consideration."

Thus, the group embarked on a journey to the Exchange Pavilion. Along the way, Hu Xingtong repeatedly asked Ye Nanhe and her senior sister for more details about the Exchange Pavilion, such as the transaction process, how to identify authenticity, and trading techniques with other forces or individuals. This information was crucial to her; she hoped to quickly integrate into this new trading environment and maximize her own benefits.

When they finally arrived at the Exchange Pavilion, the sight before them dazzled Hu Xingtong. The towering attic, the bustling trading area, the dazzling array of merchandise… all of this gave her a sense of the unprecedented commercial atmosphere and vitality.

As expected, where there are people, there are transactions. Hu Xingtong sighed inwardly.

[In the southeast corner of the star, there is a piece of black fine iron. Buy it.]

Hu Xingtong followed the system's instructions and walked over. He saw a black stone placed on the table. It didn't look special.

"What's so special about this stone?"

[This stone appears to be made of extremely cold refined iron, but it actually contains a layer of tungsten steel jade. It's a great material for refining weapons. Buy it at the lowest price.]

"Senior Sister..." Hu Xingtong looked at Han Qianyu not far away for help. If she wanted to negotiate, no one would be willing to pay attention to her, a thirteen-year-old child, not to mention that she had social anxiety.

"What's wrong?" Han Qianyu walked over and whispered in her ear.

"Senior Sister, I want this stone. Can you help me ask..."

Han Qianyu glanced at the stone that Hu Xingtong liked. It was completely black and didn't look like anything special.

"Are you sure you want this?" Although Han Qianyu didn't understand the materials for refining weapons, she could at least distinguish the spiritual properties of items. There was not a trace of spiritual energy inside this black stone, and it seemed to be of no use.

"Dear guests, do you need any help?" Seeing that several people were standing still, the manager of Huan Yi Pavilion immediately stepped forward to talk to them.

"My junior sister wants to see this. Do you think you can take it out and show it to her?"

The manager glanced at Hu Xingtong who was standing next to Han Qianyu. He was small and looked very cute. It seemed that he didn't understand much about this. Maybe he just wanted to look good, so the manager didn't introduce anything. He just listened to what they said and took the things out.

"Senior Sister..." Hu Xingtong took the thing, glanced at it briefly, then looked at Han Qianyu and tugged at the latter's clothes.

The commotion here attracted Ye Nanhe and the other two who were trading nearby. Seeing what Hu Xingtong was holding, Ye Nanhe asked, "Xingtong, do you want this?"

Hu Xingtong glanced at the manager beside him, and his hesitant look made Ye Nanhe and Han Qianyu understand something.

Ye Nanhe immediately took out his token as a disciple of the Yujian Sect and said, "Manager, we are all disciples of the sect and need materials to refine weapons. My junior sister really likes this stone. Please introduce it to us."

The manager was also a shrewd person. He knew that these two sisters were not easy to deal with. After bowing, he said, "Let me let our Pavilion Master come and take a look."

Soon, the head of the branch of Huanyi Pavilion rushed over. After seeing Ye Nanhe, he immediately and politely invited them into the inner room.

"I heard from my men that you all want to buy this stone, right?"

"My junior sister wants to ask you how many stones you have?" Han Qianyu glanced at Hu Xingtong behind her calmly and answered.

The branch leader was clearly a shrewd person. After knowing the reason why the other party was interested in the stone, he didn't hide it and asked directly, "As you can see from everyone else, this stone is ordinary and nothing special. But its most special feature is this: its outer layer is a layer of extremely cold refined iron, and its inner layer is tungsten steel jade. However, there is a strange medium between the two, which is so hard and thick that no one can break it. This is why most people can't get the tungsten steel jade inside and come back to return it."
