These two gourds were the Mystic Essence Gourd. The grade of the gourd vine would increase with age and could reach middle-grade grade 3 at the highest.
Gourds could be refined into many types of Dharmic weapons, especially an attributeless gourd like the Mystic Essence Gourd.
The most common type was to nurture flying swords, flying daggers, and other Dharmic weapons in the gourd to increase the power of the Dharmic weapon.
There were also gourds that could contain water, fire, poison, fog, and other things. The Blazing Gourd on Mount Jade Pine had a Flame Transformation Tool Pattern inscribed on it and was a common gourd Dharmic weapon.
Any gourd could be used to refine spatial treasures.
These two Mystic Essence Gourds were both superior-grade grade 2 and spatial treasures refined directly could only be low-grade spatial treasures on the same level as storage bags.
If he could hire a grade 3 Weapon Refinement Master, he could use the smelting technique to refine the Autumn Water Sword.
By refining the essence of grade 3 materials and fusing them into the gourd, he could refine a high-grade spatial treasure.
Unfortunately, Wang Daoyuan was only a superior-grade grade 2 Weapon Refinement Master.
From grade 2 to grade 3, elixir, weapon, and talisman arrays were a huge hurdle and it was difficult to cross it.
Grade 3 materials were hard to find and without sufficient materials to practice, it would be even harder to cross this hurdle.
Given his skill in weapon refinement, he could only refine superior-grade grade 2 Dharmic weapons.
A superior-grade grade 2 Demon Subduing Gourd would have no problem dealing with grade 2 demonic beasts.
The method to refine the Demon Subduing Gourd and the tool pattern on it were clearly recorded in the jade slip.
There were three types of tool patterns. The first was to suppress the soul. To subdue a demonic beast, one had to first weaken its resistance.
A demonic beast's body was strong but its soul was weak. Attacking its soul was the best way to subdue it.
The second type was the spatial tool pattern. It was similar to the tool patterns on storage bags and Universe Rings.
After all, the gourd was only so big. To contain a demonic beast, one had to expand the internal space.
The spatial tool pattern on the Demon Subduing Gourd had another special feature. It had to have an extremely strong collecting ability.
After all, subduing a demonic beast was not as simple as putting things in storage bags.
Even if its soul was suppressed, it would still have some resistance. To store it into the space, one had to have a strong suction force.
The third type was to strengthen the tool pattern to increase the strength of the gourd.
Demonic beasts that were sucked into the gourd would surely struggle. Since the gourd itself wasn't strong enough, it was only natural that it had to be strengthened through smithing.
The gourd was about a foot long, and it wasn't difficult to inscribe three types of Tool Inscriptions on it.
Bai Ying's storage pouch contained two gourds and a few jade slips, as well as a few Superior Grade 2 materials.
According to the forging method recorded in the jade slip, the essence of these forging materials was to be extracted and fused into the gourd to increase its strength.
The spiritual power contained in these two gourds was of no attribute, which made them suitable for refining with the essence of other refining materials.
The smelting method was not difficult, and Bai Sheng could do it.
To refine a magic tool with a gourd, one had to first clean out the gourd pulp and gourd seeds.
Ranked spirit plants and spirit beasts would have a much lower reproductive ability.
There were only a dozen gourd seeds in the two gourds.
Wang Daoyuan stored the gourd seeds in the Spiritual Bead and planted them near the Spiritual Fire of Life.
After Bai Sheng fused the essence of several refining materials into the gourd, Wang Daoyuan personally inscribed the Tool Pattern on the gourd.
After the first gourd was refined, there were some serious mistakes when inscribing the Tool Pattern. He tried his best to salvage it, so it wasn't completely destroyed, but its grade dropped to Intermediate Grade 2.
A Intermediate Grade 2 Demon Subduing Gourd could be used to subdue Intermediate Grade 2 demonic beasts, and it was considered a powerful Grade 2 magic tool.
A Intermediate Grade 2 magic tool couldn't be handed over, but it could be sold outside for four to five thousand spirit stones.
Wang Daoyuan adjusted his state and began the second refinement.
With the experience from the first refinement, he didn't make any major mistakes in the second refinement. He used seven days to refine an Advanced Grade 2 Demon Subduing Gourd.
It only took him 20 days to refine two magic tools. Although there were no more materials left, the reward of five thousand spirit stones was not bad.
Moreover, he could sell the Intermediate Grade 2 Demon Subduing Gourd to Bai Ying at the market price for a total of ten thousand spirit stones.
He had to admit that he had a certain level of proficiency in alchemy, smithing, and talisman. Earning spirit stones was a piece of cake for him.
However, his current situation was special. He was being paid to refine magic tools for the White Fox Tribe.
He didn't have to consider the source of materials or the sales channel of the magic tools.
Most Advanced Grade 2 Weapon Refinement Masters didn't have such treatment.
It was difficult to gather materials for a magic tool in a few months if he relied on purchasing materials himself.
Even if he refined a magic tool, it would take some time before he could sell it.
After refining the Demon Subduing Gourd, Wang Daoyuan went to greet Bai Ying through Fu Cheng.
This time, Bai Ying was faster. She arrived in a hurry after half a day.
She didn't bring the half-demon beauty with her this time. She came alone.
After entering the shop, Wang Daoyuan closed the door and activated the defense array.
Seeing how serious he was, Bai Ying teased, "Wu Daoyou, aren't you afraid of being misunderstood by others?"
Wang Daoyuan smiled. "Miss Bai, if you want others to know that the White Fox Tribe is looking for me to refine the Demon Subduing Gourd, I can also close the array formation and the door of the shop."
Bai Ying couldn't laugh immediately and cupped her fists. "Wu Daoyou, please don't take offense. I was just joking. Have you refined the magic tool?"
Wang Daoyuan took out a Advanced Grade 2 Demon Subduing Gourd from the weapon refinement room and handed it to Bai Ying.
Bai Ying took the gourd and observed it carefully. "Daoyou's weapon refinement technique is getting better. There are no obvious flaws on this Demon Subduing Gourd.
This is the reward Daoyou deserves. "
With that said, she handed a storage bag to Wang Daoyuan.
Wang Daoyuan took the storage bag and hung it on his waist. He asked, "There were some mistakes with the other gourd.
In the end, I only managed to refine a Intermediate Grade 2 Demon Subduing Gourd. I don't dare to use such a magic tool in the Northern Mountains. Do you want it, Miss Bai? "
Bai Ying replied without hesitation, "Of course I want it. I can buy it according to the market price. However, I'll have to check the quality of the item first."
Before she finished her sentence, she took out the Intermediate Grade 2 Demon Subduing Gourd.
Bai Ying snatched the Demon Subduing Gourd and observed it carefully. She even injected spirit energy into it to activate it.
Since the item had yet to acknowledge an owner, it wouldn't have much of an effect.
However, she could tell the grade of the entire magic tool with just a trace of spirit energy fluctuation.
Eventually, Bai Ying nodded. "Daoyou is truly capable. To think that you could make up for a major mistake in the inscription of the tool pattern to such an extent.
Although this magic tool is of Intermediate Grade 2, it's made of Advanced Grade 2 materials. In actual fact, it's stronger than ordinary Intermediate Grade 2 magic tools.
Our White Fox Tribe wants to work with Daoyou for a long time so we naturally won't let Daoyou suffer a loss.
This Intermediate Grade 2 Demon Subduing Gourd will be priced at 6,000 spirit stones. What do you think, Daoyou? "
That was a very generous price and Wang Daoyuan naturally had no objections.
Bai Ying took out 60 middle-grade spirit stones from a storage bag and handed them to Wang Daoyuan.
Both gourds were spatial magic tools and couldn't be kept in storage bags. It would be too ostentatious to take them out in the open.
She put the two gourds into a box and left the Wu Clan's weapon workshop with it.
