Chapter 464: The Power of a Slow Horse
Chapter 464: The Power of a Slow Horse
Although he was not familiar with Tong Mingshan, he knew him. He kept shouting Tong Mingshan, but suddenly stopped talking. Could it be related to Tong Mingshan?
After he opened his eyes, the first thing he did was look towards Tong Mingshan's position. At a glance he understood what was going on with the exclamation and the silence.
I saw that the bottom of the refining material that Tong Mingshan was holding, near his palm, was also glowing with a hazy glow. What does this mean?
Could it be that Tong Mingshan is also refining the True Linglong Heart?
How can this be?
Seeing how Tong Mingshan was shaping it in one piece, could it be that Tong Mingshan also knew his refining method? He immediately denied this idea. He did not feel that Tong Mingshan was controlling the mysterious power, and his method did not seem like it.
But this glow is enough to prove that the refraction space created inside the equipment is indeed complex and transparent to a certain degree, otherwise it would be difficult for this material to glow with colorful glow.
Seeing that the eyes of the audience around him were all looking at the mirror in the sky, not knowing what they were looking at, he could not help but look up, only to find that the viewing angle was too single and he could only see one side. The mirror image in the sky-viewing mirror in the air seemed to be constantly changing angles out of curiosity, staring at the refining object in Tong Mingshan's hand, almost watching in circles. Except for the side below and the side blocked by Tong Mingshan, no one could see it.
It was because of looking around that Li Hongjiu was surprised to find that if Tong Mingshan was really refining the True Linglong Heart, then his refining method was different from that of everyone else. Everyone else divided the area and refined it one area at a time.
Including him, Li Hongjiu, even if it is formed as one piece, it is based on the main veins. If he outlines the structure of the entire "true heart" as one and then integrates it, how long will it take? I'm afraid he won't be able to finish it even by the end of the competition.
However, the rays of light refined by Tong Mingshan were like water rising up from the bottom of the entire device.
Not only Li Hongjiu, but all those who knew the business were plunged into great surprise and doubt.
Even Luo Shengsheng and other contestants opened their eyes due to the unusual noise and were all surprised.
"Can Tong Mingshan refine a true exquisite heart?" When Bai Lian Sect's Grand Master Yan said this, he turned his head and asked Luo Wan. As he was his disciple, he naturally knew the answer.
Upon hearing this, all the people from Bailian Sect looked at Luo Wan, including Shi Chun and his group from Mingshan Sect.
But Luo Wan had no idea what was going on, and he didn't know whether to shake his head or wave his hands. In the end, he said, "I can't make it yet, so I can't teach him. I don't know whether he has learned it from others."
Then the people from Bailian Sect looked at Shi Chun again. This guy might be the one who knew best whether Tong Mingshan had learned anything from others.
Shi Chun knew what they meant, but how did he answer this question? He didn't know whether Tong Mingshan learned it from others. After all, he didn't know whether Tong Mingshan met any cellmates who were good at it during his imprisonment.
There are similar inmates in the Exiled Lands.
So he asked vaguely: "Are you sure he is refining the True Linglong Heart?"
Having said that, it’s really hard to be sure, so everyone continued to watch and observe.
The quiet scene gradually became noisy and full of discussions. No one could believe that Tong Mingshan had this ability. After all, Tong Mingshan's background was there. In the eyes of many people, he was just a disciple of a small sect.
For many people from different sects, this is very difficult for them to accept and they deny it in their words and deeds.
Those sects all accepted the news that Tong Mingshan had obtained several sacred fires with the help of Shi Chun. But if it was said that Tong Mingshan's weapon-refining skills could surpass theirs, wouldn't that be taking advantage of their jobs? How could they easily accept it before seeing the results?
To Li Hongjiu, these gossipers are just talking without any worries, and the win or loss of others will not affect them. But he, Li Hongjiu, is the one participating in the competition, so how can he be careless?
He stared at the rising speed of the glow in the equipment in Tong Mingshan's hand and suddenly felt his scalp tingling and a strong sense of urgency came over him.
Regardless of whether Tong Mingshan can really refine the True Linglong Heart, the momentum of Tong Mingshan's current attack is very wrong. His competitor suddenly shifted from Luo Shengsheng to Tong Mingshan. The speed of change was so fast that even he himself felt it was unreal.
But he no longer had time to think too much and dared not waste any more time. He concentrated his attention, quickly closed his eyes, and concentrated and calmed his mind again.
This time he didn't dare to make any plans to save effort against Luo Shengsheng. If he did, he might not be able to explain to the sect. Now was the time for him to put all his effort into it.
Luo Shengsheng, who was observing the growth progress of the rosy glow in Tong Mingshan's hand, was full of surprise and doubt.
Because of his pride, he was unwilling to admit defeat easily even in the face of the advantage shown by Li Hongjiu, and he was determined to give it his all. Now Tong Mingshan appeared, and he suddenly felt a little tired.
There was a moment when I almost lost my mind and wanted to admit defeat.
He is the person who absorbed the most divine fire in the whole venue, a total of ten divine fires. If he cannot defeat Li Hongjiu in the end, it will be difficult for him to accept it. If Tong Mingshan comes out and defeats him, how embarrassed will he be?
No, he would never accept such consequences!
He closed his eyes again and activated the divine fire. His face became even paler under the firelight.
At this moment, Gu Lianni looked at the mirror image in the air with a bit of despair in her eyes. The thoughts intertwined with lust suddenly became simple and pure. She turned her head and looked at Mi Liangmeng, who became her last bottom line.
If she, who had absorbed seven divine fires, was not as good as Mi Liangmeng, then she would really be too ashamed to face anyone.
She is the daughter of the leader of the second largest weapon-refining sect in the world. Those who have defeated her are all disciples of sects ranked after Shu Daoshan. How can Shu Daoshan put his face on the spot?
He gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and immersed himself in refining with unprecedented determination.
On the other hand, Mi Liangmeng can be said to be the only person besides Tong Mingshan who is not affected by any movement in the outside world. After he decided to refine the True Linglong Heart, he closed himself off in his own refining world.
He knew very well that success or failure would depend on this one attempt.
He just figured it out early and did it...
Lan Qiaoyan and Gong Yuanzhi, who were sitting on the terrace, were not experts in refining equipment, but they could not wait for their future son-in-law to serve them well, so they found an expert named Wang to explain it to them.
Seeing the mirror image frozen on Tong Mingshan, and hearing that Tong Mingshan might be refining a True Linglong Heart, not to mention Miao Yilan and Gong Shaoci, Lan Qiaoyan and Gong Yuanzhi were also quite surprised.
They may not know anything else, but they know what it means to be able to refine a true Nine-Aperture Exquisite Heart. It means that their refining skills have reached another level and that they have stepped into the threshold of refining high-level magic weapons.
This is a huge thing for weapon refiners.
Moreover, given the age and cultivation of Tong Mingshan and the others, if it is true, their future is limitless. But the expert named Wang, who looked a little sloppy and liked to stroke his short beard, was still not sure. He kept muttering to himself, "It seems that I have been using two divine fires. If it is really to refine the True Linglong Heart, why don't I use four divine fires and only use two? It's good to use it occasionally for assistance."
Listening to him mumbling, Gong Yuanzhi, who was staring at the mirror, seemed to be more and more interested in Tong Mingshan and asked, "Judging from the reactions of so many experts present, it seems unlikely that everyone has made a mistake, right?"
The expert surnamed Wang thought for a moment, pinched his beard and nodded slightly, saying, "That makes sense." He stared at the mirror and began to talk to himself again, "If that's true, it's really incredible."
Gong Yuanzhi said, "How can you say that? I'd like to hear your opinion."
Expert Wang pointed to the mirror image and said, "With his background, age, and cultivation, if there were no other opportunities, just relying on the teachings of the Bailian Sect, let alone giving him four divine fires, even if he was given ten divine fires, he might not be able to refine a true heart in such a short time.
He was not refining the True Linglong Heart at the beginning. His initial refining actions were consistent with his original background and his own conditions.
He started refining again when only one-fifth of the incense stick was left, so what was the point of wasting time before? Was he deliberately pretending to be doing something to cover up something? There was no such cover-up. Since he still had to refine it in the end, such a cover-up would not only be meaningless, but would make it more conspicuous.
If the final result proves that he is really refining the True Linglong Heart, then it is very likely that..."
He suddenly pinched off a strand of his beard, and said with shining eyes: "I understand!"
"Understood?" Gong Yuanzhi asked in confusion.
The master surnamed Wang flicked off his broken beard and nodded, saying, "His current refining method is unlike any known method in the cultivation world. He might have been thinking about a refining method, but he couldn't figure it out. Just now, he suddenly realized it by chance. This boy might have some adventures in the Divine Fire Region. After all, there are many ancient sages who died in the Divine Fire Region. It is very likely that he inherited someone's genes."
Then he stared at the mirror image and said, "The area of transparent rosy light is getting larger and larger. It is really possible that they are refining the True Linglong Heart."
The people present looked at each other in bewilderment. Gong Yuanzhi suddenly smiled at Lan Qiaoyan and said, "If that's true, then Shi Chun is quite lucky to have such a talent."
There is no need to say those polite words that are clearly meant to fool people. Everyone knows that Tong Mingshan is actually Shi Chun's subordinate...
At the competition site, the remaining contestants who were not the focus of everyone's attention were still delivering their finished products for judgment.
Except for some people who are still competing, there are not many people left in the field.
"Three orifices, refining the fourth orifice!"
There was a sudden cry of surprise at the scene, and the mirror image had already frozen on Luo Shengsheng's body.
Luo Shengsheng has turned his divine fire to attack the fourth orifice.
However, beads of sweat were already dripping down his bald head, and his face looked pale under the firelight. His proud and cold eyes were dim. After looking at Tong Mingshan and Li Hongjiu, he didn't even look at the incense burning to count the time, and continued with his eyes closed.
Everyone in Daming Pavilion could see that he was trying his best to hold on.
Pavilion Master Xiao Youhong murmured and sighed, "It's okay, it's okay."
It was not just Luo Shengsheng. Gu Lianni's cheeks were also covered in sweat. Her eyes were closed and occasionally twitched due to excessive effort, as if she was trapped in a nightmare.
Everyone in Shudao Mountain held their breath and concentrated, feeling that the leader's daughter seemed to be at the end of her strength.
Gu Yanduo stared at his daughter with a gloomy face and a tense face. He knew very well that if one wanted to develop from the strength of a weak horse into the posture of a unicorn, it would be fatal if one tried too hard.
But now that things have come to this, it is difficult for him to persuade his daughter to give up. If she can't even get into the top three of the seven sacred fires, then fine, you can give up. But you, Gu Lianni, must at least come up with a decent result to explain to the whole sect, right?
Did so many people die just to help a worthless person like you? Just because you are the daughter of the headmaster?
When the disciples faced the ridicule of other sects, they could not help but wonder behind their backs, how was the decision made to let Gu Lianni represent Shudao Mountain to enter the Divine Fire Region? Was it just because she was the daughter of the sect leader?
"The fifth orifice, Li Hongjiu is refining the fifth orifice!"
As soon as Yu Luo Shengsheng's exclamation came to an end, another wave of wine was given to Li Hongjiu.
Li Hongjiu took the time to glance at Tong Mingshan, and secretly groaned, discovering that the glow of the equipment in Tong Mingshan's hand had risen to nearly half.
It is obvious that once the refining is completed, the true nine orifices will be completed at the same time.
And he wants to outline it bit by bit, what a weird thing, this is going to drive people to death!
If I had known this earlier, I would have focused on Luo Shengsheng instead of training him to death. At least I could have developed one more acupoint.
Cursing inwardly, he didn't dare to waste time and immediately closed his eyes to continue. Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and his breathing was not as smooth.
Sect Master Qu of Yanbao Sect had a solemn expression. It was the first time he saw this unreliable disciple being forced to sweat profusely to deal with serious matters. He also realized that this unreliable disciple was determined to fight this time.
"Old An, look at Tong Mingshan's hair!"
At the exit of Qiyun Valley, Zhu Xiangxin, who was looking up at the sky, suddenly reached out and patted An Wuzhi's arm beside him, motioning him to look.
Women are always careful and noticed the abnormality in the mirror at the first time.
An Wuzhi immediately looked carefully. Under the flickering light of the refining fire, he couldn't see anything unusual without careful observation. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that Tong Mingshan's black hair seemed to be gradually fading and seemed to be turning gray.
He was startled, and his lips trembled. "Is it...turning white?"
Shi Chun and his gang sitting in the viewing seats had already shut up, staring intently at the final competition between the two parties, not daring to even breathe.
At this time, the changes in the rosy light refined in Tong Mingshan's hands had made them realize that they were wrong and had misunderstood. Tong Mingshan had never given up and was really fighting for the supreme throne that only appeared once every few hundred years in the weapon refining world.
