However, just as their lives were gradually getting back on track, the arrival of an uninvited guest broke the tranquility of the valley.
On this day, Luo Chen was concentrating on refining a magic weapon in the refining room, while Qing Shuang was patrolling the valley.
Suddenly, a figure fell from the sky and landed at the entrance of the valley.
Qing Shuang walked forward vigilantly, and saw an old man in gorgeous Taoist robes, with a hint of extraordinary magnanimity in his eyes.
"Who are you? Why did you break into our valley?" Qingshuang said with a hint of caution in her tone.
The old man smiled slightly and said: "My name is Lin Xu. I heard that Master Luochen has extraordinary weapon refining skills, so I came here to visit."
Qingshuang was shocked. She had heard of Lin Xu's name. That is a master of weapon refining who enjoys a high reputation in the world of immortality.
She quickly welcomed Lin Xu into the valley and informed Luochen.
When Luo Chen learned that Lin Xu was visiting, he immediately put down his work and hurried to the living room.
He bowed respectfully to Lin Xu: "Junior Luo Chen, I have met senior Lin Xu."
Lin Xu waved his hand, indicating to Luo Chen that there was no need to be polite: "Master Luo Chen, I came here today because I have something to ask for."
Luo Chen was confused, but still politely replied: "Senior, please As long as the juniors can do it, they will try their best."
Lin Xu nodded. He took out an ancient sheepskin scroll from his arms and handed it to Luo Chen: "This is a weapon refining blueprint from ancient times. I have been studying it for many years, but I have never been able to restore it. I heard that Master Luo Chen has superb weapon refining skills, especially Come for help.”
Luo Chen took the sheepskin scroll and looked at it carefully.
There are some complex patterns and symbols painted on the scroll, which seem to be the design of a magical weapon.
The more he looked at it, the more profound it became, and a passion for challenge surged in his heart.
"Senior, don't worry, I will do my best, junior." Luo Chen said firmly.
Lin Xu nodded with satisfaction, then said goodbye and left, leaving Luo Chen and Qing Shuang to continue studying this mysterious weapon refining blueprint.
After Lin Xu left, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang locked themselves in the weapon refining room and began an in-depth study of the sheepskin scrolls.
They knew that this was not only a weapon refining challenge, but also a test of their skills.
"Qingshuang, look at this symbol, it seems to represent a special energy flow." Luo Chen pointed to a pattern on the scroll and said.
Qingshuang took a closer look and nodded: "Yes, this symbol has appeared in ancient books. It represents an ancient method of refining weapons, which can integrate the power of heaven and earth into magical weapons. ”
The two began to try to decipher every detail on the scroll. They knew that only by fully understanding the intention of the design could they successfully restore this ancient artifact.
Day after day, night after night, Luochen and Qingshuang devoted almost all their time to this work.
They kept trying, failing, and trying again, until they finally found the right way to refine it.
"Luochen, we succeeded!" Qingshuang shouted excitedly, holding a newly baked magic weapon in his hand.
Luo Chen looked at the magical weapon, his eyes flashing with excitement: "Yes, Qingshuang, we did it!"
This magical weapon is a sword-shaped weapon. The magic weapon, the sword body is flowing with a faint blue light, and the hilt is inlaid with a crystal clear gem, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
"Let's give this sword a name." Luo Chen suggested.
Qingshuang thought for a moment, and then said: "Just call it 'Blue Moon', it is like the brightest star in the night sky."
Luo Chen nodded and agreed: "Lanyue, what a good name."
They carefully put away the Blue Moon Sword, preparing to hand it to Lin Xu at the right time.
A few days later, Lin Xu came to the valley again.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang presented the Blue Moon Sword in front of him.
Lin Xu took the Blue Moon Sword, with a flash of surprise in his eyes: "This... this is really unbelievable. Master Luochen, Miss Qingshuang, you have actually restored this ancient magic weapon."
Luochen replied humbly: "Senior, thank you. We are just doing our best."
Lin Xu nodded with satisfaction, then took out an item from his arms and handed it to Luochen: "This is my I hope you won’t refuse.”
Luo Chen took it and saw that it was an ancient weapon-refining secret book, which recorded many lost weapon-refining techniques.
"Senior, this is too precious, we cannot accept it." Luo Chen quickly declined.
Lin Xu insisted: "Master Luochen, Miss Qingshuang, your weapon refining skills are worthy of this gift, and I hope you can pass on this knowledge to make the weapon refining skills in the world of immortality more advanced. Prosperity.”
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other, knowing that this was a responsibility and an honor.
"We will definitely pass on this knowledge and live up to the expectations of our predecessors." Luo Chen said solemnly.
Lin Xu nodded with satisfaction, then said goodbye and left.
I want to improve the level of weapon refining, or in other words, I want to obtain more spiritual weapons.
Luochen needs more materials for refining.
However, since the refining materials on his body have basically been used up.
So Luo Chen planned to find and collect some weapon refining materials for use.
"Qingshuang, Luojia Mountain, have you heard of it?"
"I heard that Luojia Mountain is rich in all kinds of weapon refining materials, but the danger is too high , so generally no one goes there.”
“I plan to visit Luojia Mountain soon.”
Qingshuang frowned slightly when she heard Luo Chen's plan. She knew the danger of Luojia Mountain, but she also understood Luo Chen's persistence and pursuit of weapon refining.
"Luochen, Luojia Mountain is indeed a treasure land, but the dangers there are beyond what ordinary people can imagine. Have you really decided?" Qingshuang asked with concern.
Luo Chen nodded, with a firm light shining in his eyes: "Qingshuang, I understand your concerns, but as an weapon refiner, I must continue to challenge myself and find better materials, Luo Although Jiashan is dangerous, as long as we are well prepared and careful, I believe we can come back safely."
Qingshuang sighed, she knew that once Luo Chen decided on something, he would rarely change his mind.
She can only choose to support him and face possible dangers with him.
"Well, since you have decided, I will go with you. Two people are safer than one." Qing Shuang said firmly.
Luo Chen glanced at Qing Shuang gratefully. He knew that with Qing Shuang by his side, no matter what difficulties he encountered, he would never be alone.
"Thank you, Qingshuang, with your company, I feel more confident." Luo Chen said with a smile.
The two began to prepare for their trip to Luojia Mountain.
They collected all kinds of props and magic weapons that might be used, and also specially prepared some elixirs and spells for emergencies.
After everything was ready, they embarked on the journey to Luojia Mountain.
Luojia Mountain is located on the edge of the world of immortality. It is steep and shrouded in clouds and mist. According to legend, it is home to various strange creatures and powerful guardian beasts.
Luochen and Qingshuang were careful along the way and avoided many potential dangers.
"Luochen, there seems to be a cave ahead. Let's go in and have a look. Maybe we can find some weapon refining materials." Qing Shuang suggested, pointing to the cave in front. Luochen nodded, and they walked into the cave carefully.
The interior of the cave is spacious and deep, and the cave walls are inlaid with some luminous ores, illuminating the way forward.
"Be careful where you step, something seems wrong here." Luo Chen reminded, he felt an unusual aura.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake, the ores on the cave walls fell one after another, and a huge creature jumped down from the shadow of the cave roof.
It was a giant beast with wings, spitting fire from its mouth.
"It's the fire-winged beast! Luo Chen, be careful of its flames!" Qing Shuang warned loudly.
Luochen quickly pulled out his sword and stood back-to-back with Qingshuang, preparing to face this sudden enemy.
The fire-winged beast's flames came like a violent storm. Luo Chen and Qing Shuang relied on their tacit cooperation to avoid the flames while looking for opportunities to counterattack.
"Qingshuang, use the ice spell!" Luo Chen shouted.
Qing Shuang immediately took out a talisman from his arms, chanted the spell in his mouth, and threw the talisman towards the fire-winged beast.
The spell turned into a sheet of ice in the air, temporarily sealing the flames of the fire-winged beast.
Luo Chen took the opportunity to rush forward and drew a sharp sword light with his long sword, directly hitting the fire-winged beast's vitals.
The fire-winged beast was unable to cast the frozen flames and could only barely dodge.
After a fierce battle, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang finally worked together to defeat the Fire Winged Beast.
The fire-winged beast fell to the ground, let out a cry, and then dissipated into a wisp of smoke.
"Luochen, are you okay?" Qingshuang asked with concern.
Luochen wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied with a smile: "I'm fine, thanks to your ice spell."
They knew that this victory was hard-won, but it also made them more determined. The determination to keep going.
In the cave, they found some precious materials for refining the weapon, including an ore called "fire cloud stone", which can enhance the fire attribute power of the magic weapon.
"Luochen, with these fire cloud stones, we can refine more powerful fire-attribute magic weapons." Qingshuang said excitedly.
Luo Chen nodded. He had already begun to imagine how to use these materials to refine new magic weapons.
"Yes, Qingshuang, let's keep moving forward. There are more secrets in Luojia Mountain waiting for us to discover."
Luochen and Qingshuang continued to go deep into Luojia Mountain. They knew that the deeper they went, the deeper they went. The greater the danger you encounter, but also the more precious materials you can find for refining.
They carefully avoided several potentially dangerous areas, and finally came to a valley shrouded in strange light.
"Luochen, look over there, there seems to be something flickering in the light." Qingshuang pointed to the depths of the valley and said.
Luo Chen looked in the direction Qingshuang pointed, and saw an area in the valley shrouded in colorful light, and there seemed to be some mysterious power flowing in it.
"Let's be careful, there may be unknown dangers hidden in that light." Luo Chen reminded.
The two of them approached slowly and found that the light came from a huge spar. There were some strange plants growing around the spar, exuding a faint fragrance.
“This is... Iron Spirit Grass!” Qingshuang exclaimed in surprise, she recognized one of the extremely rare weapon refining materials.
Luo Chen also recognized this material. Iron Spirit Grass is a rare plant that can greatly enhance the spirituality of magic weapons. For weapon refiners, this is simply a priceless treasure.
“We have to find a way to collect some Iron Spirit Grass.” Luo Chen said.
However, just as they were about to approach, the crystal suddenly emitted a low hum, and the surrounding light became more dazzling.
“Be careful, this crystal seems to be alive!” Qingshuang said warily.
Suddenly, several rays of light shot out from the spar, surrounding Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.
They felt a strong force pulling on themselves, and their bodies involuntarily moved closer to the crystal.
"Luochen, what should we do?" Qingshuang asked nervously.
"Keep calm, don't resist this force, let's see what happens first." Luo Chen replied calmly.
As they got closer to the crystal, the light began to soften, eventually enveloping them in a ball of light.
The inside of the light ball was warm and comfortable, and Luochen and Qingshuang felt an unprecedented sense of tranquility.
"This is..." Luo Chen was surprised to find that the concentration of spiritual energy in the light ball was extremely high and could even be directly absorbed by the body.
"Luochen, this crystal seems to be helping us improve our cultivation!" Qingshuang said in surprise.
The two stopped resisting and began to absorb the spiritual energy around them, and their cultivation level was improved unknowingly.
Time seemed to have lost its meaning in the ball of light. When they opened their eyes again, they found that they had returned to the valley, and the crystal stone had returned to calm.
"We have really improved." Luo Chen said with emotion as he felt the spiritual energy filling his body.
"Yes, this is really a miracle." Qing Shuang was also extremely excited.
They collected some iron spirit grass and prepared to leave the valley.
However, just as they were about to leave, there were footsteps from the other end of the valley.
"Someone is coming." Luo Chen said warily.
They quickly hid and watched the coming people.
I saw a group of people dressed as immortal cultivators appearing at the entrance of the valley. They seemed to be looking for something.
"It seems that we are not the only ones who know the secrets here." Qingshuang whispered.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang held their breaths and quietly observed the group of immortal cultivators.
There are many of them, and they are obviously an organized team. Each of them exudes considerable spiritual power fluctuations.
"They don't look like ordinary cultivators," Qingshuang whispered, "We have to be careful."
Luo Chen nodded, he understood Qingshuang's worries .
Although they have improved their cultivation with the help of crystal stones, they still need to be cautious when facing such a team.
"Let's not act rashly first and see what they are going to do." Luo Chen responded softly.
The group of immortal cultivators were searching around the valley, seeming to be looking for something specific.
One of them suddenly stopped and looked at the place where Luo Chen and Qing Shuang found the Iron Spirit Grass before.
“There are traces of Iron Spirit Grass here!” the man shouted loudly.
Other cultivators immediately gathered around and began to dig the soil there.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other. They knew that Iron Spirit Grass was extremely important to them and they could not give up easily. (End of this chapter)
