"It's up to me to fight on our side, hehe..." Hou Shan jumped out without waiting for others to inform.

Everyone still remembers how he defecated in public two days ago, but seeing his unscrupulous appearance, they really don't think that this person will make any outstanding achievements in Yanshu.

However, people should not be judged by their appearance, so naturally they cannot be underestimated.

"Elder Manbo, how about we discuss it? I'm good at refining body armor. Why don't you choose the spear and let me choose the shield?" Hou Shan glanced at the tall and tall Elder Manbo, and smiled. road.

"Okay." Elder Man Bo glanced at him and said cleanly.

Anyway, for him, it doesn't matter which one he refines, and he is sure of defeating the opponent.

Hearing this remark, Hou Shan was greatly surprised, he was just probing a little bit, but he didn't expect Elder Man Bo to agree so easily.

"Ahem, I'm just joking, the choice depends on God's will." He coughed twice and said.

Obviously, he doesn't really want to be on the defensive side.

"Then stop talking nonsense and draw a lottery." Elder Man Bo said without bothering to pay attention.

The unnamed elder immediately took out a pitch-black lottery container, which contained two long sticks, and said to the two, "The black lottery is the main attack, and the white lottery is the main defense."

Hearing this, the two stepped forward and drew a long lottery each, and showed it to everyone.

Elder Man Bo's lottery is white, and he has chosen the defensive side.

"Hey, it seems that my luck is not very good, Elder Man Bo, then I will accept it." Hou Shan said with a smile and clasped his fists.

Elder Man Bo closed his eyes slightly, as if he was deaf.

Chapter 1513 The Second Scene

"The purpose of this competition is to compare the technology and skills of refining Yanjia. In order to eliminate the interference of material factors, the materials you can choose this time are the same. The main materials are Lingxiao copper and Luhai Chensha, and the auxiliary materials There are light stones, emeralds, medium-grade tungsten gold, and white fat, etc., you can take according to your needs." The nameless elder said.

When Shen Luo heard this, he secretly admired in his heart: "The attributes of these spiritual materials are basically neutral, and they can be used to refine both offensive and defensive armor. It is indeed fair in terms of materials."

"The refining time is three hours. Once the time is up, if one party fails to complete, it will be directly judged as a loser. If both parties have not completed, the degree of completion will be used as the judging standard, and the one with the highest degree of completion will win. If both parties are within the time limit If the refinement is completed within a short period of time, it will be transferred to the Martial Arts Field for a direct offensive and defensive test, whoever breaks first will be the loser." The unknown elder continued.

"The difficulty of refining Yanjia is more difficult than magic weapon. It is not easy to smelt spiritual materials within three hours. It is even more difficult to refine the finished product." Shen Luo heard the words and whispered to Yan Wushi .

"It's not a big problem. Elder Man Bo has always been obsessed with Yanshu. His skill in refining Yanjia is not comparable to ours. His previous fastest record was to successfully refine a Yanjia within two hours. , it’s just that the grade of the refining product was not high.” Yan Wushi didn’t speak directly, but passed the sound transmission to Shen Luo.

When Shen Luo heard the words, he couldn't help but admire in his heart.

"Are there any other rules? If not, can we start?" Hou Shan said impatiently while putting up a little thumb and digging at his ears.

"Okay." The nameless elder said.

Hearing this, the elders Hou Shan and Man Bo stepped forward and came to the two refining platforms in the workshop.

"Just use this shit?" Hou Shan raised his eyebrows when he saw the refining furnace on the stage, and asked.

"The furnaces used by both of you are the same. Is there any problem?" The unknown elder frowned.

"What's the same? You guys are used to the furnace here, but I've never used it. It's not fair to me." Hou Shan shouted as if he was a rascal.

"Then what are you going to do?" In order to stabilize his mood, Elder Man Bo's violent temper, which had been suppressed all the time, could hardly be suppressed anymore.

"That's good, I use my customary furnace, and you can also use your own customary furnace, how about it? It will be much fairer in this way." Hou Shan said.

"As you say." Elder Man Bo said without bothering to argue with him.

After this entanglement, the two finally came to their respective refining stages.

Seeing this, the unnamed elder stepped forward, lit a stick of incense in the center of the two refining platforms, and immediately announced the start of the competition.

After Hou Shan heard the beginning, the playful look on his face suddenly subsided, and his whole temperament changed instantly.

Immediately afterwards, he raised his hand and pushed, and the original furnace was pushed away by an invisible force, and then he flicked his palm again, and another furnace appeared on the table.

This furnace is only about three feet high, with a golden body, three legs and two ears, and a strange animal head engraved on the top cover of the furnace.

When everyone saw this furnace, their expressions changed.

This refining furnace animal head is lifelike, its ears are covered with black patterns of flames, and its three legs are shaped like three animal feet, all of which are covered with dense scales, one can tell it is not ordinary.

"Using such a high-rank furnace, aren't you cheating?" Elder Fu scolded angrily.

"Are you greedy to see my gold-selling furnace? Not angry? You can also change the furnace, and I didn't say I disagree." Hou Shan rolled his eyes and said.

"You..." Elder Fu was momentarily at a loss for words.

How can high-quality furnaces be obtained at will?

As far as the refining furnaces used by Houshan are concerned, only the two refining furnaces carried by the city lord in the whole Tianji City can stably press one end of them, and the refining furnaces used by Elder Man Bo are naturally not comparable.

Elder Man Bo saw this, but he didn't panic in the slightest, instead he persuaded:

"The rank of the refining furnace is indeed important for refining the Yanjia, but the material that ultimately affects the rank of the Yanjia is the material. For materials of this level, an ordinary refining furnace is enough, and his refining furnace can only help him at most. It's just to speed up the refining speed, other aspects of improvement are limited, don't worry, he can't win."

At this moment, the self-confidence radiating from Elder Man Bo made his image even taller.

What he meant was obvious. There is an upper limit to the Yanjia that can be successfully refined with ordinary spiritual materials. No matter whether you use an ordinary furnace or a high-level furnace, the upper limit of the refined Yanjia is there.

If Elder Man Bo can refine the upper limit Yanjia with the ordinary furnace, even if Hou Shan can refine the upper limit Yanjia with the help of the high-level furnace, and they end up in a tie, then he is better.

Seeing that he himself had no objection, the others stopped talking and began to watch their competition quietly.

Elder Man Bo pinched the magic formula with one hand, opened his mouth and sprayed out a mouthful of pill fire, drawing a line of fire in the midair, straight into the furnace.

The flame patterns on the furnace lit up, and a raging red flame burned inside.

After waiting for about half a quarter of an hour, the refining furnace showed a transparent crimson color, and two spiral heat streams rose from the ears of the alchemy furnace, condensing into two miniature clouds.

"It only takes half a quarter of an hour to raise the temperature of the furnace room enough to melt Lingxiao's copper with the pill fire alone. There are indeed two brushes." Hou Shan was not in a hurry to start, watching At this scene, he couldn't help showing his approval, and he praised.

"Hou Shan, stop talking nonsense, if you lose the game, the master won't let you go." Mammy Yu said angrily.

"Old woman, you are the one who talks too much."

Hou Shan scolded her, and only then did he start to ignite the fire.

However, as a line of fire poured into the furnace chamber, the flame pattern on the gold-burning furnace lit up, and the eyes of the strange beast on the top of the furnace also lit up, and a sharp aura gradually spread from the furnace body out.

"It's still a metal furnace. This old boy said earlier that he is good at refining defensive Yanjia. He really is farting." Elder Fu cursed directly.

Hou Shan grinned indifferently, and began to urge the furnace with all his strength.

In just a few breaths of time, clouds and mist were steaming above the alchemy furnace, and it was obvious that the temperature had reached the standard.

"It's heating up so fast." Shen Luo couldn't help but whispered.

In terms of heating rate alone, he was already several times faster than Elder Man Bo.

And this means that the firepower of the pinning furnace is several times stronger than that of ordinary furnaces, not only allowing it to maintain an advantage in refining speed, but also surpassing Elder Manbo in terms of material purification efficiency.

Fortunately, this competition is not a competition of speed, otherwise Elder Man Bo will undoubtedly lose.

Chapter 1514 The Way of a Genius

Shen Luo shifted his gaze to Elder Man Bo, but he saw that he was staring intently at his furnace, completely absorbed in it physically and mentally, and was not disturbed in the slightest by Hou Shan beside him.

At this moment, he had already sent Lingxiao's Copper and Shining Stone into the furnace, and he was controlling the flame to form three rings, surrounding the two materials in the center, trying to melt them together.

The temperature of the three flame rings are different, and they circulate back and forth with each other, constantly rotating around the two spiritual materials, and through the alternating flames from time to time, the two materials are fused at different levels.

This kind of melting method, which Shen Luo has seen in the Tianji Collection, is called bite melting. It is a rather difficult melting method. It is more complicated than simple melting and mixing, but it can make the two kinds of spiritual materials separate All the advantages are better preserved, and the refined Yanjia also has more high-quality characteristics.

For example, this Lingxiao copper has excellent ductility, but not enough toughness. If it is simply fused, the formed spiritual material can indeed enhance toughness while ensuring ductility, but the synthesis effect is only equivalent to another more Advanced spiritual material, gold in the open sea.

But if it is made by occlusal smelting, the two kinds of spiritual materials will be in a state of mutual occlusal lamination and fusion, and their ductility and toughness will be better than the gold of the open sea.

Hou Shan, who was on the side, saw that Elder Man Bo had actually mastered the art of smelting, a look of jealousy appeared in his eyes unconsciously, and the brows drooped slightly.

In this point alone, he is no longer as good as Elder Man Bo.

At this time, he also put away his contempt for Elder Man Bo, and began to focus on refining Yanjia.

As time passed bit by bit, the main material metal in the gold-selling furnace has been refined and turned into a liquid state, which is controlled and suspended in the furnace chamber by its mana.

After a while, wisps of smoke began to emerge from the molten liquid, which was a sign that the impurities contained in it were separated, which represented that the purity of the spiritual material was constantly improving.

Shen Luo watched his movements, and Huo Lingzi's voice suddenly sounded in the sea of ​​consciousness: "Based on this situation, that Elder Man Bo is probably going to lose."

In the hand hidden in his sleeve, he held the Xiaoyao Mirror impressively.

Water clouds hovered above the mirror, and the dark fire furnace was reflected inside, and the fire spirit was also living in it.

"This is only the smelting stage, and you can already see the result?" Shen Luo asked without any change in expression, only communicating with his mind.

"Elder Manbo's smelting method is good, but the furnace he used is really ordinary, so the fire can't heat up fast enough to make the spiritual materials smelt to a flawless state. On the other hand, Houshan was different. He smelted The spiritual material can basically reach the level of flawlessness, which is better than the barbarian." Huo Lingzi said.

"Just the difference in the purity of the spiritual materials is not enough to tell the winner, right? Besides, the method of clenching and smelting is obviously better." Shen Luo hesitated.

"No. Although Houshan's smelting method is common, but because the smelting is an attacking object, it does not have high requirements for ductility and more for sturdiness, so there is no need to ensure more ductility. It is also because For this reason, I dare to conclude that the types of utensils he refines must also be Yanjia, such as short daggers and short awls, which require less ductility, do you believe it?" Huo Lingzi said to himself.

Shen Luo didn't speak, but saw that Hou Shan had already started adding auxiliary materials to the furnace.

As several auxiliary materials flew into the furnace one after another and fused with the main materials one by one, the temperature in the furnace also began to drop gradually.

At this time, Hou Shan's hands began to dance in the void, and the molten spirit material in the furnace began to solidify gradually as the temperature dropped, gradually revealing the true shape of Yanjia. Stem triangular short cone.

"It's not easy to refine the prototype of such a Yanjia in such a short period of time. As long as there is no problem with the engraving of the Yan pattern later, he is afraid that he will surely win." Huo Lingzi said via voice transmission.

Hearing this, Shen Luo couldn't help frowning.

If Hou Shan really wins this match, then Che Qingtian and the others will win two cities in a row and win directly.

He couldn't help looking at Elder Man Bo worriedly.

Compared with Hou Shan, his speed is much slower, and he has not yet been able to refine all the spiritual materials, and is still adding spiritual materials into the furnace.

Almost everyone can see that his firepower is insufficient, and his step is slow, step by step.

But at this moment, he suddenly selected a very inconspicuous fire flint from among the many spiritual materials, controlled it with mana and sent it into the furnace.

"It's useless to add flint to it right now, what does Man Bo want to do?" Elder Fu was a little anxious.

This thing is usually used as a combustion-supporting material, which can increase the temperature of the fire to a certain extent, but if it is added at this time, the effect will be a bit tasteless.

However, he saw that the piece of fire flint was wrapped in his mana, and after entering the furnace, it did not burn immediately, but was controlled by it to suddenly accelerate, rushing into the molten spirit material liquid.

The moment the fire flint entered the liquid mass of spiritual material, it was immediately completely wrapped.

When everyone saw this, they didn't understand why, only Huo Lingzi's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of something.

Then, I heard a dull sound of "boom"!

The molten spirit material suddenly swelled up like a balloon, and a large amount of white mist gushed out from the surface.

After a while, all the white mist dissipated, and the swelled molten spirit material slowly opened, revealing a mass of black flint ashes, which were slowly peeled off.

"Genius, genius, what a genius did." Huo Lingzi couldn't help exclaiming.

"How do you say it?" Shen Luo couldn't understand it for a while, so he asked through sound transmission.

"It's me who underestimated this elder man. He actually thought of using the internal deflagration of the fire flint to instantly increase the temperature of the molten spirit material, and then evaporate the impurities in the molten liquid. It's a genius." Huo Lingzi Still quite excited.

After Shen Luo heard this, he also understood, and at the same time, he also knew how difficult this operation was, which was extraordinary.

After all, it is necessary to control the deflagration temperature of the fire flint to be high enough, and to ensure that the power of the deflagration is not enough to break through the blockage surrounded by the molten liquid. At the same time, it is necessary to use mana to control the embers after the fire flint deflagration, preventing it from entering the molten liquid for secondary damage. pollute.

Shen Luo thought to himself that he could not achieve such a fine operation for the time being.

After the refining of the spiritual material melt was completed, the temperature of Elder Man Bo's furnace also began to drop gradually, and a round shield shape was gradually formed.

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

Chapter 1515 Furnace Change

On the other side of the smelting furnace in Houshan, a dazzling golden light suddenly lit up, and an incomparably sharp aura burst out suddenly.

Shen Luo hurriedly turned his head to look, and saw that the lid of the refining furnace over there had been opened, and a shaped sharp cone rushed out suddenly, and seven or eight sharp golden lights burst out of his body uncontrollably.

One of the golden lights flew straight towards Elder Man Bo.

Elder Man Bo was concentrating on controlling the solidified prototype of the melt, and didn't notice the changes here at all.

By the time he reacted, it was too late.

The golden light instantly hit his furnace, and the sharp force poured directly into it.

There was a flash of fire above the furnace, and it exploded with a "bang", and the round shield that had just been condensed could not maintain its original shape in an instant. With a bang, it turned into countless scorching raindrops and scattered in all directions.
