The rag picking sister turned out to be a weapon refiner

For this test, he directly chose the most difficult to refine, heavy steel and cold jade. One is solid, and the other is very cold, and they have different requirements for flames, so Hu Xingtong needs to purify them separately. Now with the addition of warm fire, the purification process is actually much simpler.

"Wow, this will speed up my refining process."

With this special discovery, Hu Xingtong quickly began to prepare for the work.

This work took three months. After purifying the materials, the next step was shaping. Various purified materials were put into the strange fire in a specific order and proportion, and spiritual power was used to guide them from time to time to make them blend together evenly.

Then, following the shape on the blueprint, she used her spiritual power to knead the fused special medium smooth, allowing the material to perfectly take on the shape of a weapon. This process required extreme concentration and patience, but Hu Xingtong did it with ease, as if it all came naturally to her.

After several days of hard work, Hu Xingtong finally completed the shaping of various components. After that, it was the seal patterns. Compared with Xiao Yuheng's Chuiyun and his own Qinghuan, Han Qianyu's dragon head pole was indeed much more troublesome. Since the structure required later installation and each component was relatively small, Hu Xingtong needed to carve the seal patterns one by one, which was equivalent to one array pattern or rune needing to restrain multiple ones, and they needed to be linked together.

The workload was considerable, and the most important thing was that in order to find a formation pattern that suited his needs, Hu Xingtong flipped through various books given by Si Xu, and searched for reference in the system's illustrations. Finally, he found a formation that matched the attributes and characteristics. So, this time, Hu Xingtong planned to engrave some simple solid runes and ice attribute bonus runes for Han Qianyu's weapon, and he chose the Seven Snow Cold Killing Formation as the formation pattern.

In this way, in addition to engraving the same solid runes and attribute bonus runes in each component, you only need to add a small part of the Seven Star Cold Killing Array's array pattern, which saves a lot of trouble.

After finalizing the content of the seal pattern, Hu Xingtong rested for a while as usual to restore his energy and consciousness to the best, and then began to refine it.

The refining process was incredibly delicate. Hu Xingtong first carefully enveloped each component with spiritual energy, ensuring they wouldn't be damaged during the engraving process. Then, he pressed his fingers together to condense a needle-sized stream of spiritual energy, then continued drawing with a focused expression.

The solid runes are like a fine net, tightly locking every inch of the material's texture and giving it indestructible power; the ice attribute bonus runes flow like a clear spring, infusing the weapon with bone-chilling spiritual power.

As for the array patterns of the Seven Snow Cold Killing Array, Hu Xingtong poured all his efforts into it, striving for precision in every stroke to ensure that the array patterns between each component could be perfectly connected to form a complete killing array.

As time passed, a faint chill gradually permeated the room, a sign that the ice-attributed spiritual power within the weapon was gradually awakening. Beads of sweat formed on Hu Xingtong's forehead, but her gaze grew more resolute, as if she were engaging in some kind of silent communication with the weapon in her hand.

Finally, as the final stroke of the array pattern was applied to the last component, the chill in the room suddenly intensified, and a fierce murderous intent spread. Hu Xingtong let out a long sigh, a satisfied smile on his face.

The next step is assembly.

With a deep understanding of the blueprint, Hu Xingtong assembled each component one by one, using the interconnecting patterns to secure each component. Each connection was accompanied by a surge of spiritual energy to ensure a flawless joint. When the last component fell into place, the entire weapon seemed to come alive, emitting a faint blue light, chilling yet elegant and sharp.

“Huh—it’s so difficult…”

Hu Xingtong leaned against the wall behind him tiredly. He took a deep breath and looked at the work in front of him. He felt that such a difficult weapon should be named by himself.

"What should I call it?"

【Want a name?】

"Well, I've put in so much effort, this right to fame should belong to me." Hu Xingtong gently stroked the weapon that she had poured countless efforts into, her heart full of pride.

"Oh, I've come up with an idea. Let's call her Shuqing, special, clear sky! Xiao Wuzi, what do you think?"

[Not very good, this name feels weird.] The system ruthlessly complained.

"What do you know? First of all, this thing is the most difficult one I have ever refined. And then, Clear Sky..." At this point, Hu Xingtong asked Chen Wu mysteriously, "Do you know why I'm called Xingtong?"

Speaking of this, Chen Wu became interested. He transformed and sat across from Hu Xingtong. He asked curiously, "Why? I think your name is quite nice."

"Hehe," Hu Xingtong smiled slyly and answered quickly, "Originally, my parents named my sister Luoxi after the setting sun. Later, when I was born, my parents thought about pairing me with my sister, so they named me Chaowan. As luck would have it, we were caught up in the family planning policy at the time and were not allowed to have a second child. As a result, I didn't get a household registration. Later, when my younger sister was born, the two-child policy happened to be relaxed, so my younger sister used my place and got a household registration at the same time."

"At that time, my parents thought it would be better to name her Sun, Moon, and Stars, as it sounded like a family. So, Xi means setting sun, and Yue means Night Song, so they gave her to my sister. As for Xing, there happened to be a sycamore tree downstairs of the hospital when I was born. I loved that place, so I named her Xingtong. As for Qingkong, that was the name my parents had planned to give my sister."

"Now that I hear it, your family is quite loving, and the name is nice, too." Chen Wu looked at Hu Xingtong's smile at the moment, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth and exclaimed in admiration.

"That's right. The names of the three of us sisters are just like the names of the heroines in the novels. They are profound and beautiful." Hu Xingtong's eyes sparkled with happiness as she spoke of her names and the stories of her family. She gently stroked the weapons she had just finished, as if she could feel the warmth and emotion contained within them.

"So, this weapon is called Shuqing. It is special and complicated to me, just like the name my sister has never used. Moreover, I hope that when senior sister holds it, she can be like a clear sky, seemingly calm, but able to illuminate all weather conditions, and can show the good and the bad openly. At least she doesn't have to say less to avoid offending others." Hu Xingtong explained, his tone full of eager anticipation for this weapon.

Chen Wu looked at Hu Xingtong, and a strange feeling of emotion and warmth welled up in his heart. She could always use the simplest way to make others accept her kindness. She was the little sun blooming in the clear sky, dazzling and warm, with her own passion for life.

"Shuqing, what a nice name. I believe Han Qianyu will definitely like this gift." Chen Wu said sincerely, and there was a hint of deep meaning in his eyes when he looked at Hu Xingtong that Hu Xingtong could not understand.
