Inside the courtyard, countless afterimages of spears could be seen. Gravel was stirred up circle after circle as they kept spinning into the sky.
Ou Yangming held the handle of his spear tightly, then he took a step back and borrowed force to flick an arc reflexively. By making a slide, he swung his spear again as if he was drawing a round windmill.
Fed by hundreds of families in a village when he was younger, Ou Yangming naturally knew that a spear was known for being tough and should be wielded like a ferocious tiger without breaks in between.
The spear force from Ou Yangming's spear surged. It was fast, hurried, and tight like a big net that was going to cover the area in front of him. His body's Qi movement was aroused, and it gave off a smooth feeling.
"Throat-locking!" As he grunted, the spear force changed and carried a ruthless and violent feeling.
A red light was released from his palm. It was a peculiar rune, and it swam toward the tip of his swear.
"Woosh, woosh!" The red light shot out and blasted a roughly 10-meters-tall big bluestone in his courtyard into two.
The gravel that was stirred up into the sky landed on the ground and rustled.
Ou Yangming wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, then he lamented, "When I merge the Throat-locking Spear and my mental power, such a forceful power can actually burst forth." He was surprised yet overjoyed. Being a caster, he had remarkable mental power, but he had not tried to incorporate it into martial arts.
There were 2 reasons behind it. One, there were too few casters.
Two, he could not be bothered. Given that a caster was high above, one could change Heaven and Earth using one's mental power, hence one would be indifferent about cultivating martial arts.
Nonetheless, Ou Yangming managed to merge the two perfectly at this moment. After taking a breath, he touched his Substitution Waist Sash and pondered, 'Apart from this Substitution Waist Sash and the Ancient Dragon Shield, I don't have a proper piece of equipment at all. In case of anything, I should smith a magic tool set for myself. '
If anyone heard his thoughts at the moment, one would certainly envy and hate him.
'You have such a luxurious suit, and yet you say that you don't have a proper piece of equipment? What are we then? Refugees?'
Ou Yangming chuckled and headed to the smithing workshop.
Inside the smithing workshop, Ou Yangming was familiar with using Power Ores to condense Power Treasure Ores. With a flash of thought, a white flame was released from his palm, but the air was only slightly hot. It was evident that he had not activated his Heavenly Phoenix Fire to the maximum. This was a trick that the young fellow realized when he smithed in the past. It was not a must for him to incite his fire to the maximum when he condensed a Power Treasure Ore, by which he only needed to find an equilibrium point to provide a suitable temperature. As such, the effect would be the best.
The white flame danced on his palm like a playful fire elf.
Before long, a bunch of Power Treasure Ores was refined, and they were piled up beside him. If a person with aspirations were to see them, one would have an ill intention.
Being able to condense Power Treasure Ores using Power Ores was simply bizarre. The attributes of Power Ores and Power Treasure Ores shared the same origin, but the energies that they contained could not be mentioned on equal terms.
After condensing the Power Ores, Ou Yangming used Agility ores to refine a bunch of Agility Treasure Ores.
All of a sudden, Ou Yangming's eyes lit up for a split second.
His momentum immersed into his body, and he sat upright and still.
He entered the states of the integration of Heaven and man, as well as the thoroughly meticulous, at once. Following that, a peaceful fluctuation spread.
Ou Yangming's palm glowed all of a sudden, so much so that the whole smithing workshop turned bright as though it was lit up by a warm ray of sunlight.
Heavenly Flower Ores, Golden Cloud Steel, Star Fragments...
Many precious materials were quickly melted. Very few forces in Danzhou could provide these materials, so much so that some of them could even be considered priceless as they could only be traded with items. Ou Yangming, who had a "unique" identity, was probably the only one that could use them freely.
Ou Yangming moved his fingers swiftly and used various special smithing skills. Soon enough, an arm guard slowly took form, and it was extremely red. Even so, he kept a straight face because equipment smithing was not difficult for him at all.
As for Big Yellow, it stared at Ou Yangming and touched its luxurious pieces of equipment as it wondered, 'When should I ask Lil' Ming to smith a better set for me?'
Subsequently, Ou Yangming focused as heat waves spread like tides.
Without moving his hands at all, a Power Treasure Ore rose into the air and melted at the speed of light like ice coming into contact with water, then it was slowly assimilated into the arm guard. If Peng Yanbing found out about this smithing speed, he would probably curse internally, 'I've really lived like a dog my whole life. '
"Did you succeed?" Big Yellow stuck out its tongue and asked Ou Yangming.
Ou Yangming waved his hand and shook his head."How can it be smithed so easily? I'm customizing it for myself, so it must be the best."
This time, Big Yellow was unhappy. It bared its teeth, revealing 2 rows of sharp teeth.
The young fellow was smart enough to tell that Big Yellow wanted to change its equipment set as well, thus he quickly promised it."Alright, alright, alright. Once I'm done smithing this suit, I'll give my all to smith another one for you."
Big Yellow rolled its eyes and beamed. It did not feel embarrassed at all.
It had a life-or-death experience with Ou Yangming in the Chaos Cave, and they also experienced all sorts of hardships together. Indeed, they had such a close relationship that could not be put into words.
Not to mention an equipment set, even if Big Yellow asked for the poisonous pill's spirit, Ou Yangming would not stint on giving it to the big yellow dog.
Ou Yangming exhaled a mouthful of dirty air, and an image appeared in his mind out of the blue. The sky kept falling and spreading outward, whereas numerous grey objects flowed inside. Each of them split into 10, and they were ever-changing. Furthermore, the sky was gloomy, where light green gas floated in the sky while heavy murky gas sank to the ground. All in all, countless turbulences surged. In particular, the nebula that kept expanding in the sky was mysterious and incredibly hollow. A unique lingering charm was circulating inside.
The young fellow was surprised. This was the image that he saw when the poisonous pill's spirit was formed.
He immediately buried the thought. His eyes no longer looked perturbed.
Ou Yangming had unknowingly closed his eyes, but he did not stop refining the arm guard. Instead of an obscure feeling, everything was smooth, and an unexplainable aura filled the air. A rune that looked like fog but also a cloud was carved on the arm guard. It covered the whole equipment like a spiderweb, causing a powerful fluctuation to spread.
The young fellow sighed a long breath of relief too. As his Military Fire flickered, the equipment's properties were clearly displayed to him.
[Item: Star Trace Arm Guard]
[Equivalent Rank: Magic Tool, High Grade, Rank Five]
[Attributes: Toughness +35, Power +1 (White Silver), Agility +1 (White Silver), Durability 35 (1 point will be recovered every day)]
[Skills: Star Trace Breathing (A star trace can be released, and it's extremely sharp, where it can shatter a mountain rock), Mental power's upper limit increased by 6%]
Ou Yangming was delighted when the properties were shown in his mind, but it was not only because it was a piece of White Silver Equipment.
More importantly, he had a strong feeling that if he carved unique veined patterns such as the Star Trace on every piece of equipment, they would surely change substantially.
Big Yellow widened its eyes and looked exceptionally fervent. It placed its paws together and smiled embarrassedly."My pieces of equipment are too poor now; they can't keep up to my strength, so smith a set of White Silver Equipment for me." When the big yellow dog placed its paws together, it looked constrained and uneasy. It was evident that the yellow dog knew that its suit was decent and could be considered "high-end", by which many beings sought but failed to get.
Nevertheless, as compared to a set of White Silver equipment, its equipment set was much inferior.
Ou Yangming raised his hand to touch the big yellow dog's head. He nodded and responded, "I promised you earlier, so I'll definitely keep my promise."
After resting for a brief moment, Ou Yangming's mental power was recovered to its peak state. A rattle was suddenly heard coming from his wrist as many precious materials were melted in his palm, and they were then turned into a greave. This time, the young fellow's movements were faster and smoother. Especially when he carved the Star Trace, he was so skilled that every move he made was meticulous.
Pow, pow!
Once the Power Treasure Ore was incorporated into the greave, a light flickered, and the greave was finally complete.
A peculiar veined pattern was reflected on the greave as if it was carved on it, and it gave off a mysterious feeling. In particular, when the veined pattern lit up, mighty grey smoke would be released from it.
Ou Yangming beamed as it was another piece of White Silver Equipment. The refinement of such a piece of equipment was not as easy as eating or drinking to him, but as long as his heart and mind were on the same page, his success rate would still be very high.
Once again, Ou Yangming's Appraisal Light appeared, then a group of data was displayed in his mind.
[Item: Star Trace Greave]
[Equivalent Rank: Magic Tool, High Grade, Rank Five]
[Attributes: Toughness +31, Power +1 (White Silver), Agility +1 (White Silver), Durability 31 (1 point will be recovered every day)]
[Skill: Star Trace Combo (Star Traces are connected, Sharpness attributes will be overlapped)]𝘧𝑟𝐞𝒆w𝚎𝙗𝐧ov𝘦𝙡 - 🅽🅽novel
Big Yellow's eyes were brighter than before. It fixed its gaze on the greave, and its tongue was about to fall out.
Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. He could not help but lament when he recalled everything that happened.
After half a day, he was only left with the final piece of equipment for his suit.
"I'm left with a helmet, " Ou Yangming uttered softly after he looked around him.
He took a deep, cold breath and felt that the chillness even reached his lungs. Once his mental power recovered to its peak state, it continued to work again.
This time, Ou Yangming was bold and unrestrained as he refined his helmet, which made him seem like he had great momentum. The young fellow's fire became connected to the sky, causing red and green curves to be formed. Without warning, he focused and shouted, "Merge!" Subsequently, his hands moved faster than before, leaving numerous afterimages in the air.
With a flash of thought, a unique material that looked like gold and wood at the same time transformed into a green light and flowed like a stream.
It was as clear as colored glass, and its luster radiated.
When Ou Yangming's fire faded away, the smithing workshop was peaceful again.
A fleeting light could be seen in the young fellow's eyes again as he fixed his gaze on the equipment.
His Military Fire burned once more, then another group of data appeared in his mind.
[Item: Star Trace Helmet]
[Equivalent Rank: Magic Tool, High Grade, Rank Five]
[Attributes: Toughness +31, Power +1 (White Silver), Agility +1 (White Silver), Durability 31 (1 point will be recovered every day)]
