Chapter 226
The area where the mining area is located is so vast, and the shifts of the mining personnel are handed over every half a month, so that no one notices the abnormality of a certain mine, and a group of people disappear without a sound.
Of course, all of this has nothing to do with Jingchen. What he wants to think about now is how to get the Xuangu ice crystal.
As the refining competition began, the people outside the ice tower gradually dispersed, and it was estimated that they would not appear again until three days later.
In the space enclosed by the ice tower.
The ice-condensed stone marrow has been simulated on the fourth floor of the Duobao Pagoda, and it has been refined all the way smoothly.After the prototype of the first part of the device came out, Jing Chen couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and devoted himself to it.
The second day of the competition started early in the morning, and thunder flashed over the ice tower from time to time, which was caused by someone practicing a talisman weapon.
But it's all thunder and rain.
It's not that everyone failed to refine the weapon, but the ice tower itself is a heaven-level talisman that Mo Fei refined to weaken the thunder.
Now the people participating in the competition on the tower attracted the biggest spiritual weapon, Thunder Calamity, and they were naturally weakened to the point of failure.
Fortunately, no matter how much it is reduced, there will still be a trace of thunder in the end, helping the refiner to finally become a weapon.
This is also the reason why so many people participated in the Ice Art Exhibition - even if it is not the top prize, the opportunity to borrow a heaven-level talisman forging is unique.
An ice-blue stone lotus took shape in Jingchen's hands. With the input of the sky fire, the budding stone lotus unfolded one by one. Layers of formation symbols overlapped on the petals, and streamers of light formed dense formations.
However, this is only the first step of refining the prototype.
In Jingchen's conception, the talisman should be a means of improving strength, and he was the first to cast aside the pure ornamental type.
Then the next refining is the highlight!
As the inspector of this exhibition, Zhao Yang is a low-level blacksmith in himself. He walked through each independent "artifact refining room" with the accompanying several inspectors, and nodded, "It seems that this year's first award , has attracted quite a few talented craftsmen to come.”
The person next to him echoed and said with emotion, "Yes, I expect that the quality of this year's iceware may be the best in the past 20 years."
A few people walked among the participating craftsmen, stopped and stopped, and had a little more confidence in the grand occasion of this ice crafts exhibition.
In the sky above the ice tower, the lightning strikes came and went, leaving only small dark clouds, arranged like fish scales, and the power contained in them should not be underestimated.
Day three.
The refining of the ice lotus has basically been completed, only the last process of refining and unsealing is left. Jing Chen looks at the half-palm-sized stone lotus in his hand and frowned.
At this time, Shi Lian could not tell from the outside that it was made of jade.
It is transparent and clean as a whole, and its surface presents an almost colorless light blue color. The eighteen petals are pocket-sized and exquisite, and each piece is well-proportioned, as if it were a product of extraordinary fortune.
It seems that the material change has made the finished product much better than expected... Jing Chen took a long breath and looked up at the sky.
Outside the isolated space, he could feel the strong power of thunder gathering, and the thunder disaster was coming!
After the ice tower was weakened, the large and small weapon thunder tribulations in the three days actually did not bring much substantial damage, but the dense fish scale cloud left in the sky increased. If there is no accident, it will disperse after the weapon refining competition is over.
But at this time, Binglian's weapon thunder tribulation suddenly arrived.
The thunder cloud it formed was not much larger than the ones that had appeared before, but after staying in the sky above Jing Chen, the cloud next to it actually moved closer and became bigger and bigger while brewing thunder.
Zhao Yang thought this was a very common thing, after all, not to mention the last few ice art exhibitions, even he has seen a lot of weapons and thunders in these two days.
But when the robbery cloud continued to spread and annexed the remaining robbery clouds to merge, he panicked.
My lord, none of the applicants for this year's contest has a cultivation level higher than the Xuan level, that is to say, those who have the highest attainments in refining weapons are also high-level earth-level ones. What is this Thunder Calamity, which is comparable to Xuan-level talisman weapons? situation? !
No matter what other people think, the largest weapon in history has been annexed.
At this time, no matter where the people in Ice Wave City stand, they only need to raise their heads a little, and they can see the big black thunder mushroom in the center of the city.
The accumulated thunder power made everyone on the ice tower tremble. Black smoke came out of the furnaces of some unstable craftsmen, and the semi-finished ice wares were immediately scrapped.
"Well, what should I do?" The middle-aged man, one of the supervisors, looked at Zhao Yang.
The sky changed suddenly, as if the night was dark and heavy, and there was a little glimmer of light in the place where the robbery cloud was entrenched, which was of no use.
Jingchen tilted his head to feel it, stared down at the thing in his palm, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "Is the specification a bit too high..."
I'll go, a talisman of the second and third ranks at the earth level will come to a black-level Jieyun, it's so obvious that I, a craftsman, will be hacking together.
Oh, forgot he didn't seem to be the only one on the serac.
"Huh." Feng Ji, who came out of his head, looked surprised, "You're lucky, this thunder calamity has at least ten layers."
Jing Chen, "..." May I ask where you can see that you are lucky.
"Multiple tribulation clouds and thunderbolts are mixed, and they seem majestic, but they are not powerful enough." Feng Ji analyzed, "You can use the sky fire to resist the first thunder, and then use it to temper the thunder... Where is Asura?"
You just found out he wasn't there? !Jing Chen burst into tears, "I was taken to special training."
Feng Ji was speechless for a moment, "Then, I hope you are blessed, I will go in first."
Jingchen Erkang hands.
"Boom boom boom." The huge thunder fell with great momentum, and a thunder beam that lasted for several breaths split out from the sky.
For a moment, almost everyone held their breath.
"Ah, my Talisman!"
"Oh, ruined, ruined."
The domineering and pure thunder force hit the ice tower head-on. Affected by the violent fluctuation of the energy of the world, nearly half of the talisman weapons still in the hands of the talisman masters were scrapped.
Although there was no sound coming from the independent "refining room", Zhao Yang felt a pain in his heart when he saw the black smoke coming out of each furnace.
It's over, this ice exhibition is over.
His eyes fell on the center of Jieyun, where Jingchen was, and he prayed in his heart that the talisman that caused this thunderstorm would not be scrapped, or it would be a big loss.
The thunder calamity was not over yet, the first thunder was much smaller after it fell, and the rest were broken thunder waves.
There was a surge in Jingchen's chest, and he forcibly suppressed the discomfort. He felt that the tiny thunder outside the house was no longer a threat, so he carefully looked at the "reborn" ice lotus in his hand.
Smelted by the thunder, the remaining impurities are eliminated, the material of the ice lotus becomes clearer, and a layer of jumping thunder light floats on the delicate and delicate petals, making it even more extraordinary.
"呲啦." A small cluster of thunderbolts fell ignoring the isolation talisman array and merged into the ice lotus. The transparent kyanite flashed thunder light from the inside out, and the tingling texture was transmitted directly from the palm.
The thunder continued for tens of breaths before it gradually dissipated. Zhao Yang's eyes fell on the unbelievably beautiful stone lotus, and he knew that the talisman had been completed.
But he couldn't be happy, because in this thunder disaster, at least [-]% of the refiners were impressed, and the talismans being refined were either scrapped or had flaws.
This is good, the refining competition is coming to an end, this year's iceware exhibition is not to mention surpassing the previous ones, and whether there are enough finished products is even a problem.
The thunder calamity finally dissipated, and the sky above the ice tower was clear, and it was rare for people in Ice Wave City to see a ray of sunshine during the ice exhibition.
Jingchen put the ice lotus in the showcase provided not far away, waiting for others to collect it after the end, closing his eyes and adjusting his breath.
The place where the ice tower was located was completely silent. It took a while for the inspectors headed by Zhao Yang to regain their composure and sighed and shook their heads.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye.
This year's Ice Art Exhibition used a rather funny way to screen out most of the exhibits during the competition, so that most of the residents of Icewave City lamented that one session was not as good as the previous one.
As the culprit of the incident, Jing Chen left the ice tower early and returned to the underground ice cellar. He was greeted by a fire-breathing baby.
"Yeah." Asura opened his mouth, flame gas rushed out of his mouth, he quickly covered his mouth with two small hands, his eyes were sad.
"What did you do to him?" Jing Chen looked at Suzaku with condemning eyes, is this how you bring up children?
Suzaku scratched his head, and said guiltily, "Ah, my hand is slippery. I saw a seal in his body, so I couldn't help but remove it."
"so?"
Suzaku's eyes faltered, "The method is a little special, and it can't be sealed." After speaking, he hurried to remedy it, and said, "But don't worry, I guarantee that this situation will last for seven or eight days."
Seven or eight days, are you still willing to say it? !The powerful sky fire of the world fire is spraying everywhere, do you think it's just a joke?Jing Chen spoke correctly, wondering if he should ask Feng Ji to help.
"Speaking of which, that seal is really weird, and it's never been seen before, but it's a pity that I lost it. Otherwise, let old man Mo take a closer look, and maybe we can find the source." Suzaku thumped his head, "Okay, don't say it. So, how's the game going?"
Jing Chen's face froze, "The theme is coincidence, so it's probably worth living."
It was only after he came out of the ice tower that he heard that the expansion of Jieyun caused "heavy casualties" in the refining competition. As long as contestants submit finished products, the probability of entering the top ten will be several times higher than in previous competitions.
Binglian whose appearance is much higher than expected will not be too bad in ranking.
Of course, he had better not show up during the selection period, otherwise he would be found to be the culprit who caused multiple thunder disasters, and he would probably be "beaten to death with a random stick".
The selection process was not slow, and the results came out the next day.
That day, Jingchen carried Suzaku and Asura on his back, and Mengyin Poison Sting entered the arena in a low-key state, but he still couldn't escape Zhao Yang's eyes and was dragged out.
Accompanied by the other nine top ten players, they sat by the rostrum.
As the venue for the curtain call of this year's Ice Art Exhibition, the Ice Tower Center has obviously undergone some decoration. On a large high platform five meters above the ground, ten display cases covered with red silk are placed in sequence.
At the beginning of the closing ceremony, the host came to the stage and said a few words on the occasion as usual, and then drew everyone's attention to the showcase behind.
The time to enter the mining area for the first ten months is an established reward, and who will get the Xuangu ice crystals in the end is the highlight of today.
"No.3 is announced now." The voice of the host, Wei Yang, "It is also the only craft exhibit in the top ten in this exhibition, everyone please take a look!"
This display case is particularly tall, more than three times higher than the two sides. The red silk covering the display case is uncovered, and one can see a beast-shaped ice sculpture, a common snow wolf in the far eastern glaciers.
It jumped up on its forelimbs and made a vertical leap, but its eyes were not fierce, and it did not look like a hunting posture. Its front feet were slightly bent, as if it was playing with people, and it looked naive.
