My brother is so cunning.

"You said this is a flying sword?"

"This is the flying sword!"

"I don't think it looks like a flying sword..."

"This flying sword is just a little bigger and has a unique shape."

"Stop lying to Crane. Do you think I'm just a hatchling? If you continue to explore with your spiritual sense, you can only sense that there are some micro-forged sword spirit gold, and the rest is just ordinary iron! This thing is not a flying sword at all. , with so little sword spirit gold, and the sword body is so huge and heavy, how can it fly? "

He Lingyun pointed at the strange objects on the display table. He couldn't hold back his anger and shouted loudly at Senior Brother Wen who was telling lies.

Senior Brother Wen curled his lips, tilted his head and glanced at the "so-called flying sword", and had to say: "It doesn't look like a flying sword, but this thing can indeed fly. It can do everything a flying sword can do." It can do what the flying sword can't do. If you don't try it, how do you know it's not as good as a mere low-level flying sword?"

"really!"

He Lingyun seemed to have grasped the topic and said plausibly: "You don't even know what this thing is called, so you call it a 'thing'. I don't even know what this thing is, so why should I try it? What you promised is Give me the flying sword, not this weird thing!"

It's no wonder that He Lingyun couldn't recognize Senior Brother Wen's "so-called flying sword". What was placed in front of the two of them was a streamlined aircraft with delta wings and delta canards, a pair of vector nozzles at the end and double tail fins. Modern fighter jet.

It's just that this fighter jet is a scaled-down version, with a length of about 1.5 meters, which is only the size of a model aircraft.

Even if it is a scaled-down version, it is much larger than an ordinary flying sword with a length of about one meter and a flat and slender blade. Moreover, the middle section of this model aircraft fighter is round and thick, the whole is flat, and the wings are wide. If you really want to estimate it, the weight is at least Dozens of times that of an ordinary flying sword.

Flying swords are all about lightness and speed. This heavy sword is dozens of times heavier. Not to mention using the art of sword control to control it to spin and kill at high speed, even if it floats slowly for a distance, a lot of energy will be wasted. force.

What's more, the controllability and flying speed of a flying sword largely depend on the proportion of spiritual gold used to forge the sword. The higher the grade and the stronger the affinity for spiritual power, the faster the flying sword will fly. The more sensitive the user's sword control spirit is, the more powerful and changeable the sword moves he performs.

This so-called flying sword only uses a small amount of sword-forging spirit gold in a few parts, and it is still the lowest grade. Most of the unknown metals that make up the sword body are not sensitive to spiritual power, and are worthless to practitioners. The total amount of materials used for the mortal iron and all-body spiritual gold is less than one percent of that of ordinary low-level flying swords.

Such a weird and overweight flying sword with extremely poor material, let alone floating slowly, I am afraid that He Lingyun will use the strength to break the shell of the crane chicks to fight for insects, and the aura of the whole body will be poured into it with the sword control method. That stubborn iron It can't even float, and can only tremble on the ground twice.

He Lingyun couldn't help but said angrily: "Senior Brother Wen, how could you deceive me and fool me with such a fake?"

As soon as the words came out, her pretty face turned slightly red, and she suddenly realized that her words were inappropriate, but she was so anxious that she didn't care so much, and stopped in front of Wen Rui, as if she was afraid that the scumbag would take the opportunity to escape.

Senior Brother Wen was calm, spread his hands and said: "Then there's nothing we can do. We only have this flying sword in stock. If you don't want it, just wait until I collect enough sword-making spirit gold, and then I can help you." You start refining it."

"How long do we have to wait?" the female monk asked urgently.

"It can take as little as one or two years, or as long as ten years. My small shop is located in a poor place like Lishan, where there are too few customers to buy spiritual gold ore."

Senior Brother Wen said leisurely: "Thousands of miles around Lishan have been completely plundered by Lishan disciples in the hundreds of years since the establishment of the sect. Where can there be any mineral veins to be found? Although I am a human race, I am also a remnant of the sect. , I don’t dare to go out alone to search for resources. If I bump into a disciple of the Chan Cult who shouts, ‘The treasures of heaven and earth are for those who are virtuous,’ they will block the way and rob me. With my little cultivation, I’m afraid it will be a disaster.”

He Lingyun was furious, and he was even more convinced that he had been deceived by this treacherous senior brother. He had signed a posthumous sale contract for nothing, but was instead given a weird pile of scrap metal.

But Senior Brother Wen's reasons were also very sufficient. The reality was this, but she was unable to refute it.

Sword-casting spirit gold is not a high-level cultivation resource, but it is very precious to the disciples of the Lishan Immortal Sect. The reason is just as Wen Rui said just now, the mineral veins around the Lishan Sect have been exhausted, and the Lishan disciples cannot because of their status. Travel far and wide in search of treasure.

The intra-sect competition was just over ten days away, and He Lingyun couldn't afford to wait. It was because water from a distance could not quench his thirst for nearness. Even if he got the flying sword a few years later, he would have been demoted due to losing the competition and ranking low.

Originally, she just lost her Feijian and was so poor that she only had a pair of good-looking skins left. However, after visiting Senior Brother Wen for a while, even this skin was deceived.

This happened when the house leaked and it rained all night. He Lingyun felt sad, and he felt that no monk in the world was worse off than him.

When I think about my death, my flawless and delicate body will be played with by the stinky man with a treacherous face in front of me. I don't know what it means, but I feel it intuitively. The extremely disgusting thing made He Lingyun feel extremely uncomfortable.

But even though she was resentful, she had nothing to do with Senior Brother Wen. After all, this Senior Brother Wen was also a figure from the previous generation who had experienced the Battle of Ten Thousand Immortals with Our Lady of Mount Li, and was the only descendant of the Jinling Immortal Sect in the mortal world.

The Holy Mother of Lishan promised to protect him. If anything happened to him, the Holy Mother would immediately sense it. With a little investigation, she would be able to find out who had done the murder. At that time, He Lingyun would not be punished by the sect, but would be convicted of betraying his master and harming his fellow disciples.

Sighing deeply and wiping away the tears from his eyes, He Lingyun broke his teeth and swallowed his blood. Even if he was bullied by Senior Brother Wen, he could only think that he was unlucky and just regarded it as a dog bite.

Resisting the nausea and biting her lips, the girl glared at Wen Rui with red eyes and resentment, and could only turn around and leave sadly. Her back was quite bleak and desolate.

Wen Rui was confused by her resentful look, scratching his head and saying, "It's inexplicable, as if I did something to you, it's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin..."

Leaving sadly, He Lingyun didn't know who Lu Dongbin, the famous younger generation immortal who was born thousands of years later, was, but she heard a different meaning from Wen Rui's tone, as if she was making trouble for no reason, and she was a dog biting people without knowing what was good for her.

Doubts arose in his heart, and he took a few steps. The appearance of the strange object that he had just glanced at flashed through his mind. He Lingyun paused and stopped to think about it carefully, but the more he recalled, the more he felt that the strange object was quite extraordinary.

Looking back, He Lingyun unexpectedly found that the large flat flying sword on the display stand had a beautiful appearance.

She had never seen a modern fighter jet, and she had no idea of ​​the image of a fighter jet in her mind. She naturally thought it was strange and weird at first sight. Now, after a closer look, she saw a streamlined fuselage with extremely smooth lines, wings with sharp edges and a sense of power, and an overall structure that seemed strange but had a strong rationality...

Even if someone who didn't know fighter jets saw the appearance of a modern fighter jet, they would gradually feel the unique beauty of technology.

"It looks like a steel war eagle." He Lingyun thought to herself.

Thinking of this, she was moved and thought seriously, imagining the large flat flying sword flying in the air. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it seemed to be able to fly as Senior Brother Wen said, and the speed of flying would definitely not be slow.

The reason why she could have such a feeling was that He Lingyun was a cultivator in the form of a bird. When she was still a white crane more than a hundred years ago, she had spread her wings and soared in the wind. She did not need spiritual power to drive her, nor did she need the sword-controlling magic. With just the streamlined body and long wings of the white crane, the wind could lift her up and send her to the sky.

If the strong airflow across the wings of the white crane passed through the triangular wings of the flat flying sword, it might also be able to lift up the iron eagle. Perhaps the strange flying sword could really fly as Senior Brother Wen said, and it could even fly as fast and fierce as an eagle flying in the sky!

He Lingyun released her spiritual consciousness again, and explored the strange flying sword more deeply and comprehensively. She was even more surprised after exploring it - the strange flying sword was really too exquisite!

The sword body and the wings have been forged and polished to the utmost precision, with the precision being almost the same as the original. The symmetrical double wings are like copies of the original, with the same size, length, shape and proportion.

Although the metal material used to forge the sword body is not very spiritual, the alloy composition is very complex, and it is made of at least a dozen single metals in a fusion ratio. The alloy material is also very uniform. It is definitely not ordinary iron filled with impurities. It must have been carefully smelted using a special method.

The spiritual consciousness probed into the sword body, and the structure inside the sword body was even more complex. There were countless pipelines of varying thicknesses arranged neatly and regularly, and countless precision parts were combined together in accordance with some rules that He Lingyun could not understand at all.

The core part even had a mechanism component that was so exquisite that it was unimaginable. The most surprising central part of the component was a turbofan with dozens of blades. The turbofan was cast with a complex alloy. Because it was too thin, it was translucent, and it was a nearly transparent metal creation.

The metal can be cast and polished to be transparent, which can be called a masterpiece of nature. Only the disciples of the Golden Spirit Holy Mother can have such a wonderful gold forging technique. It is so thin and light, but because it is made of an unknown metal alloy mixed with sword-casting spirit gold, its toughness is not inferior at all, and it is not inferior to the strength of the flying sword body cast by high-level spirit gold.

Even if a turbofan blade is removed and a larger proportion of sword-casting spirit gold is added, it can be refined into a cicada-wing flying sword according to the refining method of ordinary flying swords. The grade can only reach the spiritual treasure level, which is many times stronger than the standard flying sword worth three thousand spirit stones. It is a high-level treasure that cannot be bought with tens of thousands of spirit stones!

After finding out the actual situation of the strange flying sword, He Lingyun was extremely shocked, and a question that she could not figure out came to her mind.

For cultivators, the higher the affinity of the material with spiritual energy, the higher the grade. Whether it is forging a flying sword or refining a treasure, the key to determining the grade is the quality of the material.

The refining technique is the icing on the cake. A piece of ordinary iron can never be refined into an innate spiritual treasure. This is a very simple truth. Otherwise, the disciples of the various sects in the cultivation world would not fight endlessly for the cultivation resources and mineral veins with high grade and abundant spiritual power.

From the perspective of a cultivator, the strange flying sword that uses less than one percent of the total amount of spiritual gold of a standard flying sword is pure garbage, not as valuable as the broken flying sword fragments.

Why did Senior Brother Wen spend so much effort on forging ordinary iron?
