However, at the same time, Lu Ye did not forget his previous plan to use the environment here to store fuel for his Talent Tree.
He quietly activated the power of his Talent Tree, and roots that only he could see extended from his feet into the depths of the ground.
The roots could not extend too far, but since the Fire of the Earth Lung could be drawn to the refining table, it meant that the location of the Fire of the Earth Lung could not be too deep.
Therefore, there was a high chance that the roots of his Talent Tree could directly reach inside. He activated his mind and controlled the roots to search underground. Soon, he found the location of the Fire of the Earth Lung. The next moment, the roots emitted a devouring power and swallowed the energy of the Fire of the Earth Lung.
After the Talent Tree completed its transformation, Lu Ye could control where the absorbed energy went. It could be used as fuel for the Talent Tree or used to ignite the leaves of the Talent Tree to activate new spiritual inscriptions.
He had previously obtained seven spiritual inscriptions at once and had not fully comprehended them yet, so he did not plan to activate other spiritual inscriptions. Moreover, he was not in the mood to study new spiritual inscriptions here, so he stored all the energy he absorbed as fuel.
He was the only one in the huge refining workshop. Lu Ye took off the Scarlet Dragon Battle Suit and exposed his upper body. He was sweating profusely in front of the refining table. Every time the refining hammer smashed down, there would be an additional pattern in the sword embryo. As the number of patterns continued to increase, a spiritual inscription gradually took shape.
Thus, a restriction was formed.
This method of using the refining hammer to strike the sword embryo to construct spiritual inscriptions was undoubtedly countless times more difficult than using his spiritual power. Therefore, refining weapons was not something that could be done simply by constructing spiritual inscriptions.
Days passed by.
Lu Ye made rapid progress on the path of refining weapons. Because he had set a goal for himself to leave this secret realm in half a year, Lu Ye was really diligent in learning the path of refining weapons.
Search!
Every morning, he would go to the thatched hut on time to listen to Kong Kong's teachings.
The Sword Instrument Sect's Sect Master was undoubtedly very satisfied with Lu Ye's performance. Moreover, it was rare to encounter such an outstanding disciple in this Secret Realm. It was very likely that Lu Ye would be able to inherit the Sword Instrument Sect's Dao of Equipment Refinement. Therefore, he didn't hold back in the slightest when he imparted his knowledge to Lu Ye, which helped Lu Ye grow even faster.
The first spiritual weapon that Lu Ye refined was a Five Restriction Lower Grade spiritual weapon. After two days, he could already refine a Nine Restriction Lower Grade spiritual weapon.
Nine restrictions was the limit of a low-grade spirit artifact. Any higher and it would be a middle-grade spirit artifact.
In the past, Lu Ye didn't really understand the difference between nine restrictions and ten restrictions. He simply felt that the difference of one restriction wasn't much of a difference.
But when he actually started refining, he realized that there was a big difference.
This was because the difficulty of refining a Ten Restrictions Spirit Artifact was incomparable to refining a Nine Restrictions Spirit Artifact.
In another ten days, Lu Ye could already easily refine a mid-grade spirit artifact, and the quality was not bad.
A month later, the first high-grade spiritual weapon was born in his hands.
At this time, Ying Wu Ji had just passed the first test and entered the Artifact Refining Workshop to begin refining with Lu Ye.
Comparing the two, it was obvious who was superior.
Kongkong's expectations of Lu Ye grew even higher because Lu Ye's performance so far had repeatedly exceeded his expectations, even to the point of being somewhat unbelievable.
He didn't know that the reason why Lu Ye could make such rapid progress was not only that he was a spiritual tattooist, but also that he had divine thoughts.
When urging his divine thoughts, Lu Ye could clearly sense the situation inside the spirit artifact he was refining. In this way, he could adjust his strength accordingly.
Spiritual sense was indeed of great help to weapon refinement.
The more outstanding Lu Ye's performance, the worse Ying Wu Ji seemed to be. Originally, Kongkong would take the initiative to teach Ying Wu Ji some things about refining, but after a month, unless Ying Wu Ji took the initiative to ask, Kongkong no longer took the initiative to teach him anything.
Obviously, with Lu Ye as his hope, Kongkong didn't care at all whether Ying Wu Ji was there or not.
Ying Wu Ji didn't complain. Kongkong didn't care about him, so his days were leisurely. He even hoped that Lu Ye could refine a flying sword that met the requirements as soon as possible and pass the test of the mystic realm. Then, he could also go out.
Like Lu Ye, he didn't have much interest in the Dao of Refining.
Interesting, before, he had no choice but to do it. Now, if he wasn't willing, he would go cultivate on his own and be very happy.
The days in the mystic realm were dull and monotonous.
Lu Ye was completely immersed in refining. He didn't even go back to the wooden house and spent almost all his time in the smithing workshop.
Occasionally, Kongkong would go to the smithing workshop to teach Lu Ye. Another month passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Lu Ye looked at the newly refined extreme grade spiritual weapon in his hand. His mood was calm.
Soon, in two months, his refining progress had reached the level where he could refine a supreme-grade spiritual weapon. Although the birth of this supreme-grade spiritual weapon was partly due to luck, since he could refine the first one, he could naturally refine the second one.
After extreme grade spiritual weapons were magic weapons. In comparison, the difficulty of refining them would undoubtedly increase exponentially.
The flying sword that met the requirements was most likely magic weapon level. Kongkong couldn't possibly ask him to refine a spiritual treasure level sword. That wouldn't be in line with his True Lake Stage cultivation.
Therefore, as long as he could refine a magic weapon level flying sword, he should be able to meet Kongkong's requirements. Then, he would naturally be able to leave the mystic realm.
Lu Ye casually threw the extreme grade spiritual sword in his hand to the side and prepared to continue refining.
However, the moment the long sword fell to the ground, a sudden change occurred.
Accompanied by a clanging sound, the entire smithing workshop shook. At the same time, Lu Ye's expression changed because he clearly felt that there was some strange movement in the Earth Lung Fire underground.
The reason why he could sense this was because the roots of his Talent Tree had always been embedded in the ground, absorbing the energy of the Earth Lung Fire.
The roots of the Talent Tree were equivalent to an extension of Lu Ye's body. As such, he was naturally sensitive to the abnormalities of the Earth Lung Fire.
Before he could figure out what was going on, the Earth Lung Fire suddenly spewed out uncontrollably from the dragon heads of the smithing tables.
In an instant, the entire smithing workshop turned into a sea of fire.
After a while, Lu Ye rushed out of the smithing workshop with a dirty face. His whole body was red, like a cooked shrimp.
In the situation just now, if he hadn't urged the power of his Talent Tree to protect himself in time, he would have been in a terrible situation.
The earth was still shaking, and even the sky began to change inexplicably. Lu Ye turned his head to look around, only to see pitch-black cracks appearing all around him. The cracks were big and small, like cracks, spreading everywhere.
What's going on? Lu Ye was bewildered.
After a while, all kinds of abnormalities gradually stopped.
The fissures in the void also slowly disappeared.
Ying Wuji ran over from the wooden house. Hu Po was lying on top of his head, his two claws clutching his hair tightly. At first glance, it looked like he was wearing a tiger head hat …
Ying Wuji looked a little panicked: "Lu Yi Ye, what happened?"
Lu Ye slowly shook his head. He also didn't understand the situation.
At this moment, Kongkong's voice suddenly sounded in his ear: "Come to the thatched hut!"
"Yes!" Lu Ye replied and flew towards the thatched hut. When he turned his head, he found that Ying Wuji didn't follow. He frowned: "Let's go."
Ying Wuji cried: "I can't move!"
Lu Ye instantly understood that Kongkong wanted him to go alone. Ying Wuji obviously wasn't qualified to accompany him.
What's going on? "
Lu Ye slowly shook his head. He also didn't understand the situation.
At this moment, Kongkong's voice suddenly sounded in his ear: "Come to the thatched hut!"
"Yes!" Lu Ye replied and flew towards the thatched hut. When he turned his head, he found that Ying Wuji didn't follow. He frowned: "Let's go."
Ying Wuji cried: "I can't move!"
Lu Ye instantly understood that Kongkong wanted him to go alone. Ying Wuji obviously wasn't qualified to accompany him.
"Then you wait." Lu Ye said and turned to leave. Soon, Lu Ye flew to the front of the thatched hut. Just like the first time they met, Kongkong sat there.
Lu Ye stepped forward and bowed: "Sect Master."
"Sit." Kongkong said softly, looking into the distance, his eyes deep. Lu Ye sat cross-legged in front of him. He vaguely felt that Kongkong called him over should have something to do with the changes just now.
But after waiting for a while, Kongkong didn't say anything. Lu Ye didn't want to disturb him. Although he had been trapped here for a while, to be honest, Lu Ye was still very grateful to this old man. No matter what, he did teach him the art of refining very carefully and didn't hide anything.
In two months, he could make such great progress in the art of refining. His own foundation wasn't weak, but the most important thing was that he had such a good teacher.
"The time has come." Kongkong suddenly sighed.
"Sect Master?" Lu Ye frowned. He felt that Kongkong was a little bleak today, but he also felt a little relieved. It was just that these words were vague.
"It's about time." Kongkong smiled, looked away, and looked at Lu Ye: "This old man is just an obsession. The real Kongkong died long ago."
"Obsession …" Lu Ye wasn't surprised, because on the first day he came here, Thought Moon Immortal had already guessed.
"The so-called obsession is nothing more than the manifestation of Divine Sense. The real Kongkong.
It's him, and it's not him. For the sake of the sect's inheritance, it has lasted until today. In these thousands of years, some people have come here, but no one has ever passed.
The test, until this old man saw you. "
As he spoke, Kongkong looked at Lu Ye with a gratified gaze: "Your talent in the art of refining is no less than this old man's. In fact, you're even stronger than this old man. This old man thought that I could see the day you finished your apprenticeship, but now it seems that it's just an extravagant hope."
"Sect Master, what happened?" Lu Ye asked.
"Something has happened." Kongkong sighed. "But it has nothing to do with you. This arcane realm can't be maintained any longer."
"Why?" Lu Ye frowned.
Kongkong knew that he was an obsession. Naturally, he also knew that this was a arcane realm.
If the arcane realm couldn't be maintained, it meant that Lu Ye and the others could leave this place. But when things came to this, Lu Ye didn't feel too happy. Instead, his mood was a little heavy.
"No matter how powerful the restriction is, there will be a day when it loses its effectiveness. This arcane realm can be maintained, but it naturally consumes energy. Now, the foundation that maintains the arcane realm is showing signs of instability, so the arcane realm can't be maintained any longer. "
Hearing this, Lu Ye suddenly felt a little uneasy, and asked tentatively: "The foundation that maintains this arcane realm … what is it?"
