Chapter 376 Thunder Tribulation
The flames were flying in the copper refining furnace which was several feet high. A pair of male and female demon-slaying golden whips were softening in the flames...
After several days of tempering in the earth's fire, the male and female demon-subduing golden whips finally deformed and softened.
He controlled the fire spirit of the refining furnace formation and calmly adjusted the flame. At the same time, he used his spiritual sense to control the male and female golden whips to slowly merge.
To truly fuse the male and female golden whips into one, it is not a simple matter of fusing the two whips, but rather to truly refine the restrictions they carry into one.
Cleverly combine a bit of spirituality from a pair of spiritual weapons to improve the quality of the Demon-Subduing Golden Whip.
This process is easy to say, but it is extremely tedious in practice. Every step must be refined and there must not be any mistakes or omissions.
Gao Xian didn't know how to refine weapons, and he felt a little nervous watching from the side.
Fortunately, Huo Lingyun looked skilled and calm, and he really had the bearing of a master weapon refiner.
Normally speaking, you don’t need to keep an eye on Gao Xian, just leave it to Huo Lingyun.
To refine a fourth-level spiritual weapon, the most important thing is to improve your spirituality.
The Yin-Yang Thunder Doll can greatly increase the spiritual power of the male and female demon-subduing golden whips, but the spiritual power is too powerful and will naturally resist the control of the cultivator.
During the refining process, Gao Xian needs to constantly use his spiritual consciousness to nourish the spirituality, so that the spirit of the weapon can become familiar with Gao Xian's spiritual consciousness, and then fully accept his control.
If successful, Gao Xian would be able to control a fourth-order spiritual weapon at will, which is equivalent to possessing part of the power of the Nascent Soul.
The reason why Yun Qingxuan is so powerful is that she is in harmony with the Zixiao Yuanyang Ruler, which allows her to unleash the power of this fourth-tier spiritual weapon.
Gao Xian has always envied Yun Qingxuan's Zixiao Yuanyang Ruler. There are only a handful of fourth-level spiritual weapons in the sect, and each one is difficult to control.
Didn’t you see that Yun Qiu Shui was just using the third-order Zixiao Yunguang Sword?
Yun Qiu Shui also told him that a fourth-level spiritual weapon that was not suitable for him would be a huge burden.
Gao Xian also thought it made sense, and he no longer had any thoughts about the sect's fourth-tier spiritual weapons.
In the Tianxiang Sword Palace, he used his clone to upgrade the White Lotus Golden God Flag to the fourth level. To be honest, he also refined it himself, but it absorbed a lot of sword intent, but it needed the Wuji Tianxiang Sword Art to activate it. Now he couldn't use it as well as the Qinglian Sword.
This time is different. If he can smelt the male and female golden whips into a fourth-level spiritual weapon, it will be equivalent to the weapon spirit nurtured by his spiritual consciousness. This kind of spiritual weapon that has been cultivated since childhood can naturally be controlled as he wishes.
Gao Xian took this very seriously and followed Huo Lingyun day and night.
Seeing that the two golden demon-subduing whips were about to merge together, Gao Xian was a little excited.
In fact, he was overthinking it. Refining the weapon to this stage was just the beginning.
The next step is to invest in various spiritual objects and use various methods to refine this pair of spiritual weapons.
Huo Lingyun obviously had no intention of imparting his skills, he just focused on refining the weapon.
Only when necessary will Gao Xian be allowed to use his spiritual consciousness.
After a few days, the faces of the two Jindans turned yellow due to the smoke.
The earth fire in the refining furnace was so fierce and overbearing that even the Golden Core True Person could hardly bear it.
Fortunately, the male and female demon-subduing golden whips finally merged into one, and the two spiritual points in the golden whip also merged with the Yin-Yang Thunder Doll.
More than twenty days passed, and Gao Xian and Huo Lingyun took turns watching the refining furnace. Only then did they reforge the Demon-Subduing Golden Whip into shape bit by bit, and also completed the core restrictions of the magic weapon.
After a few more days, the Yin and Yang Thunder Couples merged into one, naturally giving birth to a complete spirit of the weapon.
This weapon spirit naturally invested in the core of the forbidden rune of the Demon-Subduing Golden Whip. Under the urging of the Fire Spirit, Gao Xian also continued to invest his spiritual consciousness.
Gao Xian's spiritual consciousness was far superior to Jin Dan's. Although the weapon spirit was madly absorbing his spiritual consciousness, he was able to hold on.
Huo Lingyun was also a little surprised that Gao Xian's spiritual consciousness was so strong. However, this was a good thing. The effect would be better and there would be a chance to refine it into a fourth-level spiritual weapon.
At this point, Gao Xian could already feel the changes in the weapon spirit and the changes in the restrictions of the Demon-Subduing Golden Whip.
All of these were reflected by his golden elixir, so he naturally understood what to do next.
It was to combine the forbidden runes with the weapon spirit, let the weapon spirit master the forbidden center, and then he would control the weapon spirit...
It's just that the spirit of the instrument is ignorant and has only spirituality but no wisdom. In fact, everything depends on him to drive it.
At this time, Huo Lingyun could not help at all.
Gao Xian used his spiritual sense to activate the forbidden runes one by one, and billions of points of light flashed one by one in layers, and finally fell on the spirit of the weapon.
The weapon spirit is tangible but intangible. After establishing resonance with the rune restriction, it is completely integrated into the rune restriction and becomes one with the demon-subduing golden whip.
Purple and blue lightning flashed from the golden whip that could subdue demons. As the lightning became stronger and stronger, loud thunder rumbled in the sky.
Huo Lingyun's face changed drastically, and she hurriedly shouted to Gao Xian: "Quickly put away your spiritual sense, sense the energy, and attract thunder..."
Before she finished her words, a bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the cloudless blue sky and hit the golden demon-subduing whip that was shining with lightning.
In an instant, lightning burst out in all directions, and the underground fire in the refining furnace was annihilated in the lightning.
Gao Xian's consciousness was closely connected to the golden whip that could subdue demons. The lightning gushed out along the golden whip and hit his soul.
With his powerful spiritual consciousness and Sister Lan's protection, he was unable to withstand the thunderbolt. Fortunately, the Tai Chi Divine Image was still there, and the thunderbolt that fell on his soul was naturally directed to the Tai Chi Divine Image.
The extremely yang and powerful force of thunder surged, destroying the Tai Chi God instantly, but also consuming 90% of its power.
The remaining bit of thunder power was forcibly swallowed up by Sister Lan, who controlled the red dragon.
Gao Xian's soul directly experienced the power of thunder, and he was also shocked.
The thunderbolt that struck was truly a mighty power from heaven, making him feel as small and humble as an ant.
However, in the thunder, he also felt the mysterious charm of the transformation of yin and yang and life and death...
After being struck by lightning once, Gao Xian felt as if an invisible barrier was broken, and he suddenly had a new and profound understanding of thunder magic.
But Huo Lingyun was right next to him, and Gao Xian didn’t have time to study it.
Being struck by lightning, it didn't seem good to act as if nothing had happened. Gao Xian took the opportunity to shake himself and pretend to faint.
Gao Xian didn't want to blackmail the old lady. He was afraid that after he refined a fourth-level spiritual weapon, the Fire Spirit Lion would ask for too much.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he pretended to be seriously injured so that Huo Lingyun would not be able to ask for more money.
If Huo Lingyun is shameless, then he won't be polite and will just let the old lady pay for the medical expenses...
Huo Lingyun, who was standing next to her, was so frightened that her face changed drastically. It was okay if the weapon refining failed, but if Gao Xian died, she couldn't bear the responsibility.
Huo Lingyun hurriedly helped Gao Xian up and fed him a Nine-Turn Dragon-Tiger Pill.
Just when he was getting anxious, Huo Lingyun saw Gao Xian open his eyes.
There was a faint flash of lightning in Gao Xian's eyes, and it was obvious that the power of thunder had not yet been completely dissipated.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
But Gao Xian's eyes looked calm and peaceful, as if nothing serious had happened.
Huo Lingyun asked, "How are you?"
Gao Xian slowly stood up and said, "It's okay, nothing seems to be wrong."
His eyes fell on the demon-subduing golden whip in the refining furnace. It was a four-foot-long whip with thirty-six bamboo sections and golden sand color. It had a simple and elegant shape and was full of power. Its color was as gorgeous as golden sand, yet it was somewhat restrained.
For magical instruments, appearance is secondary; what really matters is the grade of the instrument.
After being struck by thunder, the newly born spirit of the Demon-Subduing Golden Whip was not killed. Instead, it became full of vigor and contained the mysterious power of thunder.
Gao Xian held the golden whip to subdue demons, and naturally established a close connection with the spirit of the weapon, as well as with the endless spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
As his spiritual consciousness moved, the golden whip to subdue demons began to move along with his spiritual consciousness, and endless thunder power quickly gathered.
The four-foot-long golden whip for subduing demons was flashing with lightning, which was dark purple in color, mixed with a hint of gold.
The lightning is not yet released, but it contains endless power to cleanse evil spirits and demons.
Huo Lingyun next to her felt the tremendous pressure. Her red hair moved without wind. The powerful force of thunder had penetrated her robe, making her whole body slightly numb.
This woman who had lived for more than four hundred years looked at the golden whip with complicated eyes.
It was normal for the Demon-Subduing Golden Whip to be successfully fused, but it was extremely abnormal that it was actually refined into a fourth-level spiritual weapon.
She and Gao Xian are only at the third level, so normally the possibility of refining a fourth-level spiritual weapon is very small.
Of course, she was not lying to Gao Xian. The power of the two demon-slaying golden whips would definitely increase greatly after they were fused.
Even if it can't reach the fourth level, it is still a fourth level seed. If it is nurtured over time and refined for one or two hundred years, it has a good chance of reaching the fourth level.
The thunder from the sky did not kill Gao Xian, but instead caused the demon-subduing golden whip to complete its transformation, becoming a fourth-rank mid-grade spiritual weapon.
Huo Lingyun was very envious of this. This kind of luck was really amazing. Gao Xian seemed to be a man with great luck!
She suppressed her complicated emotions and bowed to congratulate him: "Congratulations, fellow Daoist, for refining a fourth-level mid-grade spiritual weapon!"
Gao Xian also showed a look of joy. It actually worked. It was indeed a pleasant surprise.
Huo Lingyun added: "The thunder from the sky actually allowed the Demon-Subduing Golden Whip to absorb the power of the thunder, greatly improving its grade."
Gao Xian smiled and said, "We can be considered to have survived a thunder tribulation."
"otherwise."
Huo Lingyun shook his head. "The last tribulation for a Taoist master is the thunder tribulation. After going through the thunder tribulation, the soul is purified and transformed into pure yang. This shows the power of the thunder tribulation. We were just struck by the thunder, that's all..."
Speaking of this, Gao Xian couldn't help but feel a little fascinated. He wondered how spectacular it would be when the Taoist Master Huashen survived the thunder tribulation.
He turned around and felt proud again. He walked forward along the road step by step. He believed that there would always be a chance to see that scenery!
Gao Xian thanked Huo Lingyun, put away the newly-forged Zixiao Tianshu Demon-Subduing Golden Whip, and rode the escape light back to Xuandu Courtyard.
Back in the bedroom, Gao Xian's consciousness entered the Temple of Mind and he checked on Sister Lan first. Sister Lan was in good condition and not injured. Instead, there was a certain mysterious feeling that was hard to explain.
Gao Xian opened the Fengyue Treasure Mirror and found that the annotations about the Tai Su idol god had not changed, but the Thunder and Lightning Spell had been upgraded.
Thunder and Lightning Sutra: Purple Sky Divine Thunder is the method, Tianshu Lightning is the technique, the way to heaven. (8000/8000000 entry) (Birthday Magical Power) The annotation is vague, Gao Xian tried it, and it is roughly the same as before, except that the Thunder Cannon turned purple-gold, and the Tianshu Lightning was white-gold.
The power of the purple-gold thunder cannon has increased significantly, as has the Tianshu lightning. The bonus to the body has also increased significantly.
Gao Xian felt that his body was stronger now, and his reaction speed was obviously faster. In particular, he was very familiar with the power of thunder.
As soon as he thought about it, purple-gold lightning condensed into a ball in the palm of his hand, and it could change shape at will according to his spiritual sense.
It should be that after learning the true solution of Zixiao Tianshu Divine Thunder and being struck by the thunder, the Thunder Lightning Method broke through the bottleneck and upgraded. However, this was also achieved at the cost of his life.
If he hadn't had the Tai Chi divine appearance, he would have been struck to death by lightning. This was extremely dangerous! If it were someone else, they would have definitely died.
Gao Xian was very satisfied with this. In his opinion, this was more important than upgrading the Golden Whip to Subdue Demons.
With the Demon-Subduing Golden Whip and the Thunderbolt Sutra, I should be able to open that sealed cave...
