Chapter 305: Super-Tier Xuan Weapon: Strange Fire Xuan Heavy Ruler!
The most unstable phase of energy has already passed, so Jiang Lin did not experience the terrifying energy fluctuations that often occur when high-tier pills are forming. The explosive energy had already released, and now it was in the process of gradual adjustment.
"Mostly, it's because our cultivation is not enough. Otherwise, at the moment the weapon is formed, it could already be used, rather than having to continue tempering it like we are now," Jiang Lin shook his slightly sore neck, then looked around at the mess of the room and shook his head slightly. Under the watch of Yao Chen, he released the Dou Qi flames from his body, leaving only the basic energy robe to cover his body.
At this moment, in the refining room, which had been partially melted by the high temperatures of the strange fire, only Jiang Lin and Yao Chen were present. Xiao Yan was currently participating in the Alchemist Guild's alchemy competition. It was said that a mysterious figure from the neighboring Yuzhou Empire had arrived to gain experience in the Gamma Alchemy Tournament.
"By all rights, something like this should only be refined when you reach the Dou Huang or even Dou Zong level. To be able to use the uniqueness of the strange fire and the various unusual qualities inside you to refine a weapon that surpasses a Dou Huang at this stage—although it might not be unprecedented, it is definitely among the top tier in the Dou Qi continent," Yao Chen's Bone Spirit Cold Fire slowly dissipated, and his figure grew more ethereal, but his eyes remained sharp, focused intently on the Qing Xuan Ding in Jiang Lin's hands, a trace of anticipation appearing on his face.
Super-tier Dou Weapons were rare. Even though Yao Chen had been a Pill Master, he had very few opportunities to come across a proper super-tier Dou Weapon. The Xuan Heavy Ruler didn't count as a super-tier Dou Weapon. Yao Chen had had the chance to interact with super-tier Dou Weapons in his lifetime, but due to the peculiarities of super-tier weapon refiner techniques, Yao Chen hadn't been able to access them easily.
If the alchemists' faction Yao Chen belonged to was considered righteous, then the weapon refiners' faction was somewhat tainted, especially with the soul-forging techniques within the weapon refiner system, which had almost led the Xuan Qi Masters to step into the gates of the Soul Hall.
"Go ahead and open it. If it succeeds, you'll be the first super-tier Xuan Qi Master I've encountered personally," Yao Chen looked at Jiang Lin with eager eyes. Even with his seasoned mindset, he couldn't help but feel a bit of excitement.
Just like the Seven-tier Dou Zong, a super-tier Xuan Qi Master had the qualification to 'establish a sect.' However, the existing spirit weapon system made weapon refiners reluctant to admit that they had already reached the Seven-tier weapon master level. In the end, the Xuan Qi Masters and the Spirit Qi Masters gradually created the special realm of the 'super-tier Xuan Qi Master.'
Similar to the concept of Half-step Dou Sheng or Half-step Dou Sheng Peak, weapon refiners also created a new realm between Xuan Qi Masters and Spirit Qi Masters—stronger and more profound than Xuan Qi Masters but not able to match the realm of Spirit Qi Masters, who could turn the spiritual essence of the heavens into vessels. It was an intermediate realm, bridging the gap between the two.
"Mm," Jiang Lin didn't say much but shook his neck again, producing a series of popping sounds from his bones. He then stepped forward and gently tapped the lid of the Qing Xuan Ding. With a loud bang, the lid was blasted away by a powerful wave of air, and a pillar of fire shot straight up into the sky!
The high-temperature flames inside the Qing Xuan Ding, which had been compressed to the extreme in the Ding's internal space, instantly rushed to the ceiling again. The Qing Xuan Ding acted like a pressure cooker, with the energy inside compressed, compressed, and compressed again for the past few days, ultimately ignited by the strange fire to melt the weapon. Fortunately, after these few days, Jiang Lin had gradually released most of the high-pressure energy inside the Qing Xuan Ding. The energy pressure inside and outside the Ding had reached a relatively normal threshold. Though the fire pillar looked powerful, it didn't have much follow-up impact, lasting only three or four seconds before the high-temperature flames slowly dissipated.
As the high-temperature flames gradually faded, a shadow, about two meters in length and broad, began to materialize amidst the fire.
Once the flames dissipated, a heavy weapon, which had absorbed a large amount of flame energy and was slightly emanating red-hot lava streaks, floated above the Qing Xuan Ding!
The weapon was about two meters long, still in the form of a heavy ruler, but now it was denser and heavier, with sharp angles. The entire weapon was pitch black but reflected a cold white light. Numerous mechanical straight lines wrapped around the weapon's body in an orderly fashion, with molten-like energy streaks flowing within the firelight.
Notably, on the huge, thick black surface of the ruler, there seemed to be a groove about the depth of a finger in the center, with red-golden straight lines on both sides, extending through the entire length of the ruler. Additionally, at the 'two-blade' parts of the ruler, there were similar 'human' gold patterns resembling shark gills, forming golden-winged lines that seemed to encircle the ruler's center.
Furthermore, if one looked closely, they would see faint lotus and bone fire patterns carved into the left and right surfaces of the ruler along the central groove. Near the bottom of the ruler's handle was a round indentation, and inside it was a symmetrical and fierce mysterious beast icon, with the beast's sharp teeth aligned with the groove at the center of the ruler!
Super-Tier Xuan Weapon: Strange Fire Xuan Heavy Ruler!
Looking at the Strange Fire Xuan Heavy Ruler, which was automatically charging with energy and glowing with lava streaks, Jiang Lin's eyes flashed slightly. He reached out, grabbing the long handle from the firelight. With a swish, the two-meter-long heavy weapon felt weightless in his hand. A booming sound rang out as a gust of wind exploded outward from Jiang Lin's body!
"I have to say, holding a good weapon in hand makes me feel like a hammer meeting a nail when I see a Dou Huang. I just want to hammer it in."
Boom!
The Strange Fire Xuan Heavy Ruler exploded through the air in Jiang Lin's hand, leaving behind a trail of afterimages. Finally, Jiang Lin slammed it down with one hand, smashing the already overburdened floor of the refining room and leaving a large crack in the stone.
The building materials of the refining room were tough enough to withstand a fight between Dou Wang-level fighters, but they couldn't withstand Jiang Lin, who had immense strength and wielded a powerful weapon. The special stone floor, capable of withstanding a Dou Wang's turmoil, was instantly cracked!
It was like the old saying in Jiang Lin's previous life: a phone screen may be harder than a key, but it can't withstand the sheer force of a strong impact.
Now, the Strange Fire Xuan Heavy Ruler, which Jiang Lin had purified along with other seventh-tier materials, was even harder than before.
If the previous Xuan Heavy Ruler could leave a clear handprint from a Dou Zun, the current Strange Fire Xuan Heavy Ruler might only leave a shallow dent from a Dou Zun.
