Chapter 242 Expensive
Two days later.
Through the soft sea mist, an island appeared faintly before our eyes.
"Tidal Island."
Lu Luan stood in the air and smiled at the island.
Xiao Can jumped on his shoulder and said, "Brother, are we there yet?"
"Ah."
Lu Luan nodded, looked at it, and then whispered threateningly: "Go back to Huangting, otherwise someone will see you and snatch you away and eat you."
"I'm here, brother. Who dares to eat me?" Xiao Can smiled at him ingratiatingly.
"There are many strong people up there. What if I can't defeat them?" Lu Luan said in a strange tone.
"Ok."
Xiao Can showed a very helpless expression, and then immediately flew into the Huangting obediently.
It is now quite valuable. Although Lu Luan has the ability to ensure its safety, he is afraid of encountering those people who do not care about the importance of life and disregard the rules. Although he is not afraid, he wants to avoid trouble.
In the past two days, he had been asking around in the surrounding waters and learned that there was a weapon-refining family called the Luo family on this Tidal Island. The Luo family had a very good reputation in the area tens of thousands of miles away and was very powerful. They were able to forge high-level spiritual weapons used by Jindan powerhouses, so he rushed here.
Although he didn't know much about metal ores, he could feel that the black sword in his hand was the material for refining a good low-level spiritual weapon. It was slightly inferior to the broken spiritual weapon of the old demon cultivator he met last time, so he was not worried about anything.
After seeing Xiao Can go in, he flew forward.
This tidal island is a huge island with waves crashing against the shore. The trees growing on it are lush and tall. Because it is early morning, it is shrouded in curling clouds and mist, and the peaks are looming, making it look like a fairyland from afar.
"senior."
"senior."
As they slowly approached, some cultivators began to appear around the island. They were only in the late stage of Qi Refining, and when they saw Lu Luan and felt his extremely deep aura, they immediately bowed respectfully.
Lu Luan just nodded slightly, and his figure continued to fly forward.
When you arrive at the edge of the island, you can see that there is a 70-meter-high volcano in the center of the island. The only difference is that this volcano is not filled with gray smoke and looks lifeless. On the contrary, the entire mountain is covered with towering trees, and cranes can occasionally be seen flying among them.
He knew that the weapon-refining Luo family was located inside this volcano, using the pure earth fire at the center of the volcano to forge weapons and magical treasures.
Before he got completely close, he felt streams of hot water gushing out from the mountain pass.
Of course, he was not the only one who came here. There were also some immortal cultivators who rose and fell among them. However, at a glance, most of them were only at the Qi Refining stage, and very few were at the Foundation Building stage.
"Although the Luo family charges a bit more, the quality of the forging is the best. Thirty or forty intermediate spirit stones should be enough."
He just wanted to refine a good low-level spiritual weapon, and he would provide the materials himself. Even so, he knew the cost would be high.
I looked at the storage ring. Although most of the spirit stones were used to improve my strength, there were still a few talismans in it that could be sold.
"I'm afraid I don't have enough idle spirit stones on me. Let's go downstairs and exchange some spirit talismans for some. By the way, I can also ask around to see which branch of the Luo family is good at forging heavy swords."
After thinking for a moment, he fell down.
When he had inquired outside before, he knew that the Luo family was divided into various lineages, and each lineage had its own specialties. The black sword in his hand was very precious to him, so he naturally wanted to forge it to the best possible level.
Tidal Island is quite large, and with the Luo family being the cash cow, the island is quite prosperous.
Lu Luan landed gently, restrained his breath, and wandered around to inquire about the news.
After a while, he spent a hundred low-level spirit stones to buy what he wanted to know.
"Luo family, cloud vein?"
Half an hour later, Lu Luan was drinking tea in an inn, looking at the jade piece in his hand, and talking to himself.
After drinking it all, he flew towards the volcano.
During this period of time, he had already gained a thorough understanding of the Luo family. After careful consideration, he found that the Yun lineage of the Luo family was most suitable for forging heavy swords for him.
After a moment, he slowly landed in the volcano.
There were no bare rocks here, but instead many wooden attics. People were walking back and forth, making it quite lively. However, most of them were cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage. As for those in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he did not see many.
There are rules and you can't walk around casually. Although he is at the Foundation Establishment stage and can ignore these rules, he still stopped on the path and walked through the criss-crossing paths, wanting to take a good look.
After sensing the hidden formations all around, he said in his heart: "Although the Luo family is not large, its foundation is not small."
After walking around inside, he finally arrived in front of a majestic attic.
He walked in.
"Fellow Daoist, what price range of magic weapon do you want to buy? We have everything."
A young man walked towards him and asked with a smile.
Lu Luan said: "I want to make a spiritual weapon. I have brought the materials myself. The quality is very good among low-level spiritual weapons."
"Spiritual weapon?"
The young man was startled. He thought Lu Luan was a Qi Refiner. He knew that a big business was coming, so he immediately shouted to the maid behind him, "Go and prepare a pot of top-quality Quqing tea."
"As ordered."
The woman bowed and then left in a proper manner. After giving her instructions, the young man politely said to Lu Luan, "Daoyou, this is not the place to talk. Follow me."
Lu Luan nodded and followed him into a small room for entertaining distinguished guests. When leaving, the young man did not forget to say to him: "Daoyou, my Yun lineage's weapon refining level can be ranked in the top ten in the entire Luo family. Twenty years ago, several weapon refining masters in my lineage participated in refining a high-level spiritual weapon, and even got a favor from a Jindan senior. So Daoyou, rest assured, no matter what you want to refine, we will give you the most satisfactory response."
Maybe the competition within the clan was too fierce. The young man kept praising his own family's level and did not forget to comfort Lu Luan and let him rest assured.
Lu Luan replied: "I came here because I know you are very good."
The two chatted as they came into a very unique little room.
As soon as he entered, he felt a very soothing breath coming towards him, which was extremely cool and significantly different from the outside.
"Fellow Taoist, sit down!"
The young man gestured with his hand.
Lu Luan sat down. At this time, the woman who served tea came back with a teapot. The young man took it and poured him a cup politely. Then he said, "Please wait for a moment, fellow Taoist. I can't decide on the spiritual weapon. I have asked the deacon to come."
"Yeah." Lu Luan nodded.
"Daoyou, you are from..." the young man spoke to him.
After waiting for more than ten breaths, a middle-aged man with a strong aura walked in, smiled and bowed to him, saying: "Daoyou, I have kept you waiting for a long time."
When the young man saw someone coming, he immediately stepped aside.
"Is he someone who is about to break through to the middle stage of foundation building?"
Since the other party did not hide anything, Lu Luan immediately sensed his level of cultivation and stood up and said, "Wait a moment, the young man just now treated us very well."
"Haha," the man laughed heartily, sat opposite and asked, "How do you want to build your weapon?"
Lu Luan took out the black sword and said, "Refine it into a spiritual weapon and add some formations to enhance gravity."
His cultivation was a beat slower now, and the true energy in his dantian could not support him to use the power of the heavy sword technique. If he wanted to have greater killing power, this was the only way.
"This is Chiwu Black Iron!"
The man's eyes lit up when he saw the sword embryo. As expected of a person from a weapon refining family, he recognized it at a glance and exclaimed, "Such a large piece must be worth no less than seventy intermediate spirit stones. It's really rare."
"Seventy intermediate spirit stones? That's so many?"
Lu Luan was slightly surprised.
The man stroked the back of the sword with his hand and looked at him, "Daoyou, this red black iron is known for its toughness. It is even an auxiliary material for refining intermediate spiritual tools, so a lot of spiritual stones will be needed."
"Name a price." Lu Luan whispered.
After thinking for a while, the man said, "Thirty-five intermediate spirit stones. This material requires the joint efforts of three weapon refiners, and it will probably take more than a month."
“Can it be a little less?”
Lu Luan frowned slightly.
The man smiled bitterly and shook his head, "This is just an estimate. The exact amount will only be known after it is refined. Anyway, it will not exceed forty intermediate spirit stones, and this is only the cost of refining. By the way, fellow Daoist is refining a spirit tool. Do you have a tool spirit ready? If not, I'm afraid you will have to spend spirit stones to buy it."
Lu Luan shook his head and asked, "How do you sell the weapon spirit?"
"What you want is a heavy sword. I, Yun Zhimai, am good at this. I have a weapon spirit, the Hunyuan Beast Soul, which is specially matched with the heavy sword."
As the man spoke, he opened his hands, and a stream of true energy spread from his palms. Finally, the true energy condensed and a one-horned monster covered in scales appeared.
This monster is extremely huge, and you can feel the oppression just by looking at its size.
"This beast soul is also divided into levels. If it is weak, it will not be of much help to the sword. Daoist friend, your materials are good. In order to maximize the power of the sword, I recommend using a beast soul worth thirty intermediate spirit stones."
Lu Luan frowned and thought, if you calculate it this way, the cost of making a spiritual weapon is quite high.
The man knew that he thought it was too expensive, so he added, "This beast soul is almost as powerful as a Hunyuan beast in the late stage of foundation building. It can make your heavy sword more powerful, so it is still very cost-effective. Of course, we also have weaker ones, but we are afraid that it will affect your strength."
"Thirty is thirty."
Lu Luan gritted his teeth and said, "Let's just give thirty intermediate spirit stones."
Although I was extremely heartbroken, I didn't feel so sad when I thought about the horrific death rate in Falling Star Valley.
"Fellow Daoist, do you have any relevant magic? I have..."
"No, not for now."
Lu Luan immediately interrupted him and said that if he continued to buy, he would lose everything.
