The first refining failed.

The second refining failed.

The third time...

Ten consecutive failures, failures, failures!

"Reality and virtual space are indeed very different. It seems I need to take it slow."

In reality, there are too many interfering factors and too much uncertainty, such as environmental issues, material issues, etc.

Having relevant consciousness but no corresponding physical memory will lead to disharmony, and the direct result of disharmony is failure.

Failure will waste a lot of resources. Therefore, the training of weapon refiners is very resource-intensive. In other words, only with the support of powerful forces can an excellent weapon refiner be trained.

A Master Refiner is not a workshop-like craftsman. Each Master Refiner can completely refine a complex magical instrument. Furthermore, they possess the ability to research and develop.

Although Lin Yang has strong research and development capabilities with the help of the system, he is still not considered a master of refining because he has not relied on his own strength to refine a complete and complex magical weapon.

The Five Elements Primordial Sword was a magical weapon that proved he had reached the rank of Master Weapon Refiner. Ordinary spirit swords wouldn't have been enough. Otherwise, wouldn't every sword cultivator be qualified to become a Master Weapon Refiner?

The average weapon refining master is at least at the Golden Core stage. Those at the Foundation Establishment stage are rare, perhaps only appearing once in a century.

After half a year and dozens of failures, Lin Yang finally completed the refining of the Wood Spirit Sword.

"The first one is the hardest, but the rest are relatively easy."

In the next six months, Lin Yang refined the remaining four spiritual swords and the Hunyuan Sword.

Finally, through the sword formation, applying the secret method of the Five Elements Hunyuan, the six swords were refined into the Five Elements Hunyuan Sword.

Sword formations and secret techniques are different from weapon refining. The conscious experience in the virtual space can take effect directly. The influence of external factors is relatively small.

Lin Yang succeeded at once.

Complete the task.

"It took a year and consumed so many resources to finally complete the Five Elements Primordial Sword."

Lin Yang was deeply moved.

Sword cultivation is actually a very resource-consuming branch of cultivation if one wants to achieve success.

However, if you don't consider high achievement, this is probably the cheapest branch of cultivation. You can directly purchase a sword embryo for your natal magic sword, and the refining method for your natal flying sword can be directly based on the most common blood refining method. This way, the cost of cultivation is much lower than that of traditional cultivation. And the attack power is even greater!

Such sword cultivators are also very suitable for dealing with monsters. It is for this reason that sword cultivators can be promoted at the fastest speed after a monster disaster.

Furthermore, sword cultivators are very suitable for the military. Several sword cultivators forming a sword formation can unleash several times the power! They are ideal for team combat.

The different sword formations can be used for both offense and defense, and can also respond to different battlefield situations. It is not just for simple attack.

After completing the task, Lin Yang went into seclusion and continued to cultivate until he reached perfection in the primary foundation-building stage, and then naturally advanced to the intermediate foundation-building stage.

"Beep—Random Mission: Condensing Sword Intent.

Mission: Sword Cultivation focuses on swordsmanship. How can a powerful swordsman not possess powerful swordsmanship? Complete the cultivation of the Five Elements Swordsmanship and condense the Five Elements Hunyuan Sword Intent.

Reward: Cultivate spiritual energy to the perfection of intermediate foundation building."

Lin Yang finished reading the task summary and said

"The system seems to take my leveling up very lightly, always posting tasks at the end to help me quickly complete the upgrade. It's as if leveling up is the easiest thing for the system. Instead, it prioritizes the refining and management tasks before the upgrade."

He glanced at his list and saw that in the past two years, he had accumulated over 30,000 Merit Points. It would soon reach 40,000, which would allow him to exchange them for Grandmaster-level knowledge in four weapon refining disciplines at once.

"There's no rush now, focus on upgrading. Follow the system tasks."

Now Lin Yang has trusted the system very much and has completed his schedule and handed it over to the system.

Habit is a terrible thing. It can slowly change a person beyond recognition.

Lin Yang, once a naive and stubborn young man, has slowly become a puppet, obedient only to the system's tasks. He uses the name of the salvation system as his own goal, and arrogantly calls himself the savior.

However, Lin Yang did not think there was anything wrong with this; rather, he took it for granted.

Moreover, as time goes by, Lin Yang's outlook on life, values, etc. are different from those of other cultivators.

This can be seen in the reform of the system for ordinary people.

The system's influence on Lin Yang was subtle and silent, and Lin Yang himself did not even notice it. Instead, he felt that others were wrong, the world was wrong, and he was right.

Lin Yang did not realize that something was wrong with him, and he directly clicked to enter the virtual space - the Kendo room. He met the familiar Kendo teacher and began to practice sword with him.

There is no time in cultivation!

After practicing sword in the virtual space for ten years without realizing it, he finally completed the cultivation of sword spirit.

After returning to reality, he spent another month cultivating the Five Elements Hunyuan Sword Intent.

Mission accomplished.

Lin Yang practiced again and advanced to become a high-level foundation-building cultivator.

"Beep—Random Mission: Harmony between Heaven and Man.

Mission: Cultivate to the state of unity between man and nature.

Reward: Cultivate the spiritual energy to perfection at the advanced foundation-building stage."

Lin Yang looked at several tasks

"This is all arranged to help me upgrade as quickly as possible. The Five Elements Primordial Sword Art states that a beginner swordsman who refines their own flying sword can advance to the intermediate foundation-building stage without hindrance. Once one completes the sword intent corresponding to their own flying sword in the intermediate foundation-building stage, they can advance to the advanced foundation-building stage. As long as they achieve unity between man and nature, they can begin to condense their golden elixir."

Looking at the arrangement of system tasks, although the time is tight, the foundation is very solid and has met the requirements for barrier-free promotion, and it is the best condition.

His natal flying sword was the Five Elements Hunyuan Sword, and its sword intent was the corresponding Five Elements Hunyuan Sword Intention. The cultivation method he used was also the accompanying "Five Elements Hunyuan Sword Technique." There was no sword cultivator who practiced the "Five Elements Hunyuan Sword Technique" more authentically than Lin Yang.

"Moreover, the Five Elements Primordial Sword Technique is a technique that the system created specifically for me by combining the strengths of all the sects. It is the most suitable technique for me. It has the fastest training speed and the strongest power."

How could a technique specially tailored for me not be the most suitable for me? How many people in this world have such an opportunity?

Even if a genius has an original method based on his own situation, I believe it is impossible for his own function to be perfect and powerful!

Originality has its pros and cons. Although it may be the most suitable for you, it is often prone to various problems and side effects due to its initial creation. It is not as good as the long-standing traditional techniques, which have fewer side effects.
