“ nà jié yīng xū yào duō jiǔ ？”
“那结婴需要多久？”
"How long will it take to form the婴?"
“ zhè nǐ bù yòng guǎn ， fǎn zhèng xiǎo jiě yǒu wǒ zhào gù ， níng jié yuán yīng shì bú huì yǒu wèn tí de 。” xiǎo táo xià hé huī yáng ， liǎn shàng mǎn shì bù xiè zhī sè ， zhè yā tou duì lín xuān de chén jiàn ， kě bú shì yì diǎn bàn diǎn 。 bàn gè shí chén yǐ hòu ， lín xuān huí dào le zì jǐ de dòng fǔ 。 xiǎo táo suī xìng zi pō là ， bù guò lùn xīn jī nǎ shì lín xuān de duì shǒu ， zuì hòu hái shì bèi tā tào chū le huà 。
“这你不用管，反正小姐有我照顾，凝结元婴是不会有问题的。”小桃下颌徽扬，脸上满是不屑之色，这丫头对林轩的陈见，可不是一点半点。半个时辰以后，林轩回到了自己的洞府。小桃虽性子泼辣，不过论心机哪是林轩的对手，最后还是被他套出了话。
"None of your business. Miss will have me taking care of her, so there's no problem with forming the元婴," Little Tao said with a slight upturn of her chin, her face full of disdain. This girl wasn't just a little bit biased against Lin Xuan.
yuè ér jié yīng yǔ cháng rén bù tóng ， xiān bì xū jiāng xiū luó shén xuè liàn huà ， rán hòu yǔ běn shēn de zhēn yuán hùn hé ， zhè zhōng jiān bú huì yǒu wēi xiǎn ， dàn què xū yào xiāo hào dà liàng shí jiān 。 shǎo zé shù yuè ， duō zé yī nián 。
月儿结婴与常人不同，先必须将修罗神血炼化，然后与本身的真元混合，这中间不会有危险，但却需要消耗大量时间。少则数月，多则一年。
Half an hour later, Lin Xuan returned to his cave dwelling. Although Little Tao was fiery-tempered, in terms of cunning, she couldn't match Lin Xuan at all, and he finally got the information out of her.
zhè yǔ lín xuān yù jì de bìng bù xiāng tóng ， dàn méi yǒu guān xì ， zhǐ yào jié yīng shùn - lì ， huā diǎn shí jiān bù guò shì xiǎo wèn tí 。 lín xuān jiāng xīn fàng huí le dǔ zi lǐ ， zhǔn bèi hǎo hǎo tiáo lǐ zì jǐ shòu sǔn de yuán qì 。
这与林轩预计的并不相同，但没有关系，只要结婴顺-利，花点时间不过是小问题。林轩将心放回了肚子里，准备好好调理自己受损的元气。
Moon's formation of the婴 would be different from that of ordinary people. She first had to refine the Deva Blood, then mix it with her true essence. There was no danger involved, but a lot of time would be needed—ranging from several months to one year.
pán xī ér zuò ， lín xuān xiān zuò le jǐ cì dà zhōu tiān xún huán ， ràng jīng qì shén huī fù dào zuì jiā zhuàng tài ， suí hòu shēn chū shǒu lái ， zài yāo jiān yī pāi ， yí gè xiǎo qiǎo de yù píng bèi tā qǔ le chū lái 「 cóng lǐ miàn dào chū yī lì fěn hóng sè de dān wán 。 bú yòng shuō ， shì xiān tiān huí yuán dān ！
盘膝而坐，林轩先做了几次大周天循环，让精气神恢复到最佳状态，随后伸出手来，在腰间一拍，一个小巧的玉瓶被他取了出来「从里面倒出一粒粉红色的丹丸。不用说，是先天回元丹！
This didn't match Lin Xuan's expectations, but it wasn't a problem. As long as the formation of the婴 went smoothly, spending some time on it wouldn't be an issue. Lin Xuan put his mind at ease and prepared to properly nurture his damaged essence energy.
lín xuān háo bù yóu yù de jiāng qí jīn 、 rù zuǐ bā lǐ miàn ， suí hòu shī zhǎn nèi shì zhī fǎ ， zhǐ jiàn dān tián zhī zhōng ， sī sī líng lì piāo fú ， rán ér què shì wǔ cǎi gěng fēn de yán sè 。
林轩毫不犹豫的将其金、入嘴巴里面，随后施展内视之法，只见丹田之中，丝丝灵力漂浮，然而却是五彩绠纷的颜色。
Crossing his legs in meditation, Lin Xuan first performed several cycles of the Grand Circulation, allowing his essence, qi, and spirit to recover to their best state. Then he stretched out his hand, tapped his waist, and took a small jade bottle out. From it, he poured out a pinkish pill.
yuán běn lín xuān yòng mò yuè zú de shèng guǒ ， cuì liàn chū lái de líng gēn shì mù shǔ xìng de ， rán ér zì cóng níng jié yāo dān chéng gōng ， bù zhī wèi hé ， nà líng lì yě biàn chéng le wǔ cǎi zhī sè 。
原本林轩用墨月族的圣果，淬炼出来的灵根是木属性的，然而自从凝结妖丹成功，不知为何，那灵力也变成了五彩之色。
It was undoubtedly the先天回元丹!
zhè zhǒng biàn huà ， zài fèng wǔ jiǔ tiān jué zhōng yě bìng méi yǒu tí ， bù guò lín xuān bù jīng fǎn xǐ 「 wǔ sè líng lì ， yǔ wǔ shū àn hé ， zhè duì zì jǐ de xiū xíng ， dà yǒu yì chù 。 liǎng gè yuán yīng xiāng duì ér zuò ， yī kē wǔ sè yāo dān zài tā men tóu dǐng piāo fú 。 rán ér zǐ xì guān chá ， huì xiàn yuán yīng shén sè wěi mǐ ， yāo dān de yán sè yuè dàn wú bǐ 。 wú dìng hé zhī lǚ ， lín xuān tóu shī le xǔ duō běn mìng yuán qì 。 tā tiáo xī dǎ zuò ， yì diǎn yì diǎn de liàn huà jìn rù dān tián zhī zhōng de yào lì 。 shí jiān màn màn guò qù 。 qī rì yǐ hòu ， lín xuān qì sè hǎo le xǔ duō ， zài cì qǔ chū yī lì xiān tiān huí yuán dān tūn fú 。 jì lǎo dǎ zuò 。
这种变化，在凤舞九天诀中也并没有提，不过林轩不惊反喜「五色灵力，与五书暗合，这对自己的修行，大有益处。两个元婴相对而坐，一颗五色妖丹在他们头顶漂浮。然而仔细观察，会现元婴神色萎靡，妖丹的颜色瀹淡无比。无定河之旅，林轩投失了许多本命元气。他调息打坐，一点一点的炼化进入丹田之中的药力。时间慢慢过去。七日以后，林轩气色好了许多，再次取出一粒先天回元丹吞服。继佬打坐。
Lin Xuan hesitated not as he placed it in his mouth, then used Inner Vision to observe. In his dantian, threads of spiritual energy floated, but they were of various colors—five in total.
jiù zhè yàng ， shí guāng yì guò ， yuán běn lín xuān de shāng ， xū yào bàn nián de xiū yǎng ， rán ér jiè zhù dān yào zhī lì ， duǎn duǎn de èr shí duō tiān ， tā jiù wán quán huī fù le yuán qì 。
就这样，时光易过，原本林轩的伤，需要半年的修养，然而借助丹药之力，短短的二十多天，他就完全恢复了元气。
Originally, the spirit root Lin Xuan had refined from the Moon Clan's sacred fruit was wood-type. However, since successfully forming a妖丹, for some reason, that spiritual energy had turned into five colors.
rán ér lín xuān bìng méi yǒu lí kāi dòng fǔ 。
然而林轩并没有离开洞府。
This change wasn't mentioned in the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Art, but Lin Xuan was delighted instead of alarmed—five-colored spiritual energy harmonized with the Five Elements, greatly benefiting his cultivation. Two元婴 sat facing each other, and a floating five-colored妖丹 hovered above them. However, upon closer inspection, it became clear that both元婴 looked listless, and the color of the妖丹 was extremely pale.
jīng lì le zhè me duō nián de máng máng lù lù ， tā sì hū yǐ jīng hěn zhǎng shí jiān méi yǒu hǎo hǎo xiū liàn le ， hé kuàng rú jīn shǒu shàng xū yào chǔ lǐ de shì qíng yě hěn duō ， lín xuān jué dìng bì guān gè shù nián zài shuō 。
经历了这么多年的忙忙碌碌，他似乎已经很长时间没有好好修炼了，何况如今手上需要处理的事情也很多，林轩决定闭关个数年再说。
During his journey on the River Wuyi, Lin Xuan had lost much of his innate essence energy. He slowly refined the medicinal power entering his dantian through deep breathing and meditation. Time passed gradually.
dāng rán ， shāng hǎo yǐ hòu ， tā dì yī shí jiān qù kàn le kàn yuè ér de jìn zhǎn ， yī jiù shì mǎn rì de hóng guāng yìng rù yǎn lián ， yǔ qián cì xiāng bǐ ， gèng jiā de yào yǎn 。 kàn lái róng hé yī qiè shùn lì ， lín xuān sōng le kǒu qì ， chóng xīn huí dào le zì jǐ de dòng fǔ lǐ 。 xiān zuò shén me ne ？ lín xuān yǐ shǒu fǔ é ， kāi shǐ le sī suǒ 。
当然，伤好以后，他第一时间去看了看月儿的进展，依旧是满日的红光映入眼帘，与前次相比，更加的耀眼。看来融合一切顺利，林轩松了口气，重新回到了自己的洞府里。先做什么呢？林轩以手抚额，开始了思索。
Seven days later, Lin Xuan's complexion improved significantly. He took another先天回元丹 and swallowed it before meditating again.
rú jīn tā de zhǔ yuán yīng yǐ shì hòu qī zhī jìng ， bù guò dì èr yuán yīng yǔ yāo dān yī jiù shì chū qī ， àn lǐ ， yīng gāi hǎo hǎo xiū xíng 。 bù guò zhè zhì shǎo xū yào bǎi nián gōng fu ， bìng bú shì néng gòu yí cù ér jiù de 。 lín xuān lüè yī sī suǒ ， jiāng yí gè yù tǒng jiǎn cóng huái zhōng qǔ chū 。
如今他的主元婴已是后期之境，不过第二元婴与妖丹依旧是初期，按理，应该好好修行。不过这至少需要百年功夫，并不是能够一蹴而就的。林轩略一思索，将一个玉筒简从怀中取出。
In this way, time flew by. Originally, he needed six months to recover from his injuries, but with the help of medicinal pills, he fully recovered in just over twenty days.
kàn zhuó shǒu zhōng de bǎo wù ， lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū yī sī miǎn huái zhī sè ， dé dào zhè dōng xī de shí hòu zì jǐ bù guò gāng gāng jié dān chéng gōng ， yī zhuǎn yǎn ， biàn shì jìn liǎng bǎi nián 。 lín xuān jiāng shén shí chén rù 。
看着手中的宝物，林轩脸上露出一丝缅怀之色，得到这东西的时候自己不过刚刚结丹成功，一转眼，便是近两百年。林轩将神识沉入。
However, Lin Xuan didn't leave his cave dwelling.
lǐ miàn jì zǎi de bìng fēi gōng fǎ ， ér shì xiū xiān bǎi yì zhī yī ， zhǐ bù guò zài rén jiè ， yǐ bīn lín shī chuán de jìng dì 。 zhàn jiǎ shù ！
里面记载的并非功法，而是修仙百艺之一，只不过在人界，已濒临失传的境地。战甲术！
After so many years of busy work, he seemed to have not properly cultivated for a long time. Besides, there were many matters he needed to handle now. Lin Xuan decided to close himself off and meditate for several years.
gù míng sī yì ， rú guǒ jiāng fǎ bǎo bǐ yù chéng shì sú jiè de bīng qì ， nà me zhàn jiǎ yě jiù shì qǐ hù tǐ zuò yòng de kǎi jiǎ le ， yǔ fǎ bǎo yí gè zhǔ gōng ， yí gè zhǔ fáng ， kě yǐ shuō shì tóng děng zhòng yào ， zài bǎi wàn nián ， céng dà xíng qí dào ， zhǐ bù guò hòu lái de xiū xiān jiè màn màn mò luò ， rú hé liàn zhì zhàn jiǎ ， yǐ bīn lín shī chuán le 。
顾名思义，如果将法宝比喻成世俗界的兵器，那么战甲也就是起护体作用的铠甲了，与法宝一个主攻，一个主防，可以说是同等重要，在百万年，曾大行其道，只不过后来的修仙界慢慢没落，如何炼制战甲，已濒临失传了。
Of course, after his injuries healed, he immediately checked on Moon's progress. The room was still filled with red light, more dazzling than before. It seemed the fusion went smoothly; Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief as he returned to his cave dwelling.
yōu zhōu bú yòng shuō ， biàn shì yún zhōu zhè yàng de xiū liàn shèng dì ， zhàn jiǎ shù yī jiù shì chuán shuō zhōng de dōng xī 。
幽州不用说，便是云州这样的修炼圣地，战甲术依旧是传说中的东西。
What should he do first? Lin Xuan rubbed his forehead and began to think.
lín xuān yǐ qián jiàn shí xiū wèi qiǎn bó dào yě bà le ， rú jīn suí zhuó yǎn jiè de kāi kuò ， zì rán xiàn le yī qī qiāo zhī chù ， jiǔ tiān xuán gōng zàn qiě bù shuō ， lán sè xīng sè 1， shén mì yù pèi ， shèn zhì lián yuè ér ， zì jǐ dōu shì zài yōu zhōu yù dào de 。
林轩以前见识修为浅薄倒也罢了，如今随着眼界的开阔，自然现了一蹊跷之处，九天玄功暂且不说，蓝色星穑1，神秘玉佩，甚至连月儿，自己都是在幽州遇到的。
His main元婴 was now in its late stage, but the second元婴 and妖丹 were still at their initial stages. According to reason, he should properly cultivate. However, this would require at least a hundred years of effort, not something that could be achieved overnight. After some thought, Lin Xuan took out an jade cylinder from his pocket.
hái yǒu zhàn jiǎ shù ， tóng yàng chuán zhì yōu zhōu ， zhè xiē shì qíng cuàn lián qǐ lái ， bù jīn ràng lín xuān yǒu xiē huái yí ， yōu zhōu …… zhēn de huì shì rén men kǒu zhōng suǒ shuō de mán huāng zhī dì ？ hái shì zài zhè qí zhōng ， yǒu shén me bù wéi rén zhī de mì mì ？
还有战甲术，同样传至幽州，这些事情窜连起来，不禁让林轩有些怀疑，幽州……真的会是人们口中所说的蛮荒之地？还是在这其中，有什么不为人知的秘密？
Looking at the treasure in his hand, Lin Xuan's face showed a touch of nostalgia. He had just successfully formed a丹 when he obtained it; now, almost two centuries had passed. Lin Xuan sank his consciousness into the object.
yáo le yáo tóu ， bì jìng shǒu zhōng méi yǒu duō yú de xiàn suǒ ， hé kuàng nà xiē shàng gǔ yǐn mì ， jiù suàn zhēn nòng qīng chǔ le ， duì zì jǐ lái shuō ， yě bù yí dìng yǒu shén me hǎo chù 。
摇了摇头，毕竟手中没有多余的线索，何况那些上古隐秘，就算真弄清楚了，对自己来说，也不一定有什么好处。
The text within wasn't a cultivation technique but one of the hundred arts of cultivation: armor-making! As its name suggested, if magic treasures were compared to weapons in the secular world, then armor served as protective gear, complementing magic treasures' offensive capabilities and being equally important. It had been widely used for millions of years but gradually declined in later cultivation worlds, with the techniques for making armor nearly lost.
hái shì xiān liàn zhàn jiǎ zài shuō 。
还是先炼战甲再说。
Youmu didn't need to be mentioned; even in Cloud Province, a cultivation holy land, armor-making was still a legendary skill.
lín xuān jiāng shén shí chén rù yù sì 。
林轩将神识沉入玉笥。
Lin Xuan's previous shallow understanding and limited experience were understandable. Now that his horizons had broadened, he naturally noticed something odd: aside from the Nine Heavens Mystical Art, the Azure Star Field, the mysterious jade pendant, even Moon—everything seemed to have originated in Youmu.
yǔ fǎ bǎo de qíng kuàng xiāng tóng ， zhàn jiǎ yě yǒu zhe duō zhǒng duō yàng de liàn zhì zhī fǎ ， dà tǐ lái shuō ， kě yǐ fēn wéi liǎng zhǒng 。 yī lèi shì pǔ tōng zhàn jiǎ ！ dì èr lèi zé shì kě yǐ shēng jí dì chéng zhǎng xíng zhàn jiǎ 。
与法宝的情况相同，战甲也有着多种多样的炼制之法，大体来说，可以分为两种。一类是普通战甲！第二类则是可以升级地成长型战甲。
And armor-making was no exception; it too had spread to Youmu. Connecting all these events made Lin Xuan wonder if Youmu truly was the barbarian land people talked about? Or were there unknown secrets hidden within?
dì yī lèi jiào jiǎn dān ， bù guò wēi lì yǒu xiàn ， zhì yú dì èr zhǒng ， suǒ xū yào de cái liào jí duō ， ér qiě dà duō shì xī yǒu zhī wù ， bù guò yǒu yī yàng hǎo chù ， jiù shì zhè zhǒng zhàn jiǎ shì kě yǐ duō cì liàn zhì de 。
第一类较简单，不过威力有限，至于第二种，所需要的材料极多，而且大多是稀有之物，不过有一样好处，就是这种战甲是可以多次炼制的。
Shaking his head, he couldn't help but doubt. After all, with no extra clues in hand, and considering that even if those ancient secrets were uncovered, they might not be beneficial to him.
xiān yǒu yí gè zuì jiǎn dān de jī chǔ xíng tài ， děng zhǔ rén xiū wèi tí shēng yǐ hòu ， kě yǐ zài xún mì cái liào ， duì zhàn jiǎ shēng jí ， qí hǎo chù bù yán ér yù 。
先有一个最简单的基础形态，等主人修为提升以后，可以再寻觅材料，对战甲升级，其好处不言而喻。
Still, he should first make armor.
yào me bù zuò ， yào liàn jiù yí dìng yào liàn hǎo de 。
要么不做，要炼就一定要炼好的。
Lin Xuan sank his consciousness into the jade cylinder.
dāng nián bù guò gāng gāng jié chéng jīn dān ， lín xuān jiù duì yùn zhàn jiǎ shù hǎo hǎo yán jiū guò yī fān 。
当年不过刚刚结成金丹，林轩就对运战甲术好好研究过一番。
Like magic treasures, there were various methods for making armor, roughly divided into two categories. One was ordinary armor, while the other could upgrade and grow with the owner's cultivation.
bìng zuì zhōng xuǎn qǔ le yī tào míng jiào bì yàn qí lín jiǎ de bǎo wù 。
并最终选取了一套名叫碧焰麒麟甲的宝物。
The former was simpler but had limited power. The latter required a lot of materials, mostly rare items. However, one advantage was that this type of armor could be refined multiple times.
bù guò fán shì yǒu lì jiù yǒu bì ， cǐ jiǎ fáng yù lì gù rán wú yǔ lún bǐ ， dàn xū yào de cái liào shí zài tài guò zhēn xī ， ér qiě zú yǒu bǎi jì zhī duō ， hěn duō shèn zhì shì rén jiè yǐ jīng jué jì zhī wù 。
不过凡事有利就有弊，此甲防御力固然无与伦比，但需要的材料实在太过珍稀，而且足有百计之多，很多甚至是人界已经绝迹之物。
Starting from the simplest form, once his master's cultivation improved, he could seek out more materials to upgrade the armor. The benefits were obvious.
jí biàn yǐ lín xuān jì yù zhī qí tè ， yě yì zhí tuō dào xiàn zài cái zǒng suàn jiāng suǒ xū yào de dōng xī còu qí le 。 rú jīn yuán qì yǐ jīng huī fù ， lín xuān jué dìng jiāng zhè tào qī dài yǐ jiǔ de bǎo jiǎ liàn chū 。 yǒu le cǐ wù ， rú guǒ zài yù shàng qiáng dí ， zì jǐ yě huì duō jǐ fēn dǐ qì 。
即便以林轩际遇之奇特，也一直拖到现在才总算将所需要的东西凑齐了。如今元气已经恢复，林轩决定将这套期待已久的宝甲炼出。有了此物，如果再遇上强敌，自己也会多几分底气。
Better not do it unless he did it well.
lín xuān rú cǐ zhè bān de xiǎng zhe ， suí hòu biàn jiāng shén shí chén rù yù tǒng ， bì jìng zhàn jiǎ shù shì yǐ jīng shī chuán zhī wù ， tā xū yào hǎo hǎo yán jiū yī fān de 。
林轩如此这般的想着，随后便将神识沉入玉筒，毕竟战甲术是已经失传之物，他需要好好研究一番的。
Lin Xuan had thoroughly studied armor-making when he first formed his金丹. He finally chose a set of treasures called the Green Flame Qilin Armor.
lín xuān cóng kāi piān kàn qǐ ， zhú zì zhè zì de yuè dú xià qù 。 yí yuè yǐ hòu 。
林轩从开篇看起，逐字这字的阅读下去。一月以后。
However, as with everything, there was both an advantage and a disadvantage. This armor's defensive capabilities were unparalleled, but the materials required were extremely rare—hundreds in total, many of which had long disappeared from the mortal world.
yī jiù zài nà jiān jìng shì zhī zhōng ， lín xuān pán xī ér zuò ， bù guò tā de shēn qián què yǒu yī qīng sè de dōng xī xuán fú ， bèi yī céng méng méng de guāng yùn tuō zhe ， lín xuān zhāng kāi kǒu ， cóng zuǐ lǐ pēn chū yīng huǒ ， duì cǐ wù bù tíng de duàn shāo jì liàn zhe 。
依旧在那间静室之中，林轩盘膝而坐，不过他的身前却有一青色的东西悬浮，被一层蒙蒙的光晕托着，林轩张开口，从嘴里喷出婴火，对此物不停的煅烧祭炼着。
Even with his unique experiences, Lin Xuan only managed to gather all the necessary materials now that he had recovered his essence energy. He decided to refine this eagerly awaited treasure armor. With it, facing stronger opponents would give him more confidence.
cóng biǎo miàn kàn ， yǔ liàn zhì fǎ bǎo pǒ wèi xiāng sì ， dàn dìng jīng xì qiáo ， nà qīng sè de dōng xī què xíng zhuàng gǔ guài yǐ jí ， míng xiǎn bú shì dāo qiāng jiàn jǐ yī lèi de bǎo wù ， dào yǔ yī fú yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì zhī chù 。 bú yòng shuō ， zì rán shì lín xuān liàn zhì de zhàn jiǎ le 。
从表面看，与炼制法宝颇为相似，但定睛细瞧，那青色的东西却形状古怪以极，明显不是刀枪剑戟一类的宝物，倒与衣服有几分相似之处。不用说，自然是林轩炼制的战甲了。
Lin Xuan thought like this and then sank his consciousness into the jade cylinder. After all, armor-making was a lost art; he needed to study it carefully.
dāng rán ， zhè yī tào bú shì bì yàn qí lín jiǎ ， bì jìng tā suī shì yuán yīng hòu qī de dà xiū xiān zhě ， dàn què shì dì yī cì xué xí zhàn jiǎ shù ， hái fēi cháng shēng shū ， lín xuān kě bù gǎn mào mào rán jiù kāi shǐ liàn zhì ， fǒu zé nà xiē cái liào dōu zhēn guì yǐ jí ， rú guǒ bù xiǎo xīn liàn fèi le zì jǐ qǐ bù shì yào kū sǐ 。 lín xuān zhǔn bèi cóng jiǎn dān de xué qǐ ，： zhōu yī ， qiú tuī jiàn piào ， xiè xiè dà jiā ， lìng wài tuī jiàn hǎo yǒu de yī běn shū 《 shòu zhī shī guǐ 。
当然，这一套不是碧焰麒麟甲，毕竟他虽是元婴后期的大修仙者，但却是第一次学习战甲术，还非常生疏，林轩可不敢冒冒然就开始炼制，否则那些材料都珍贵以极，如果不小心炼废了自己岂不是要哭死。林轩准备从简单的学起，：周一，求推荐票，谢谢大家，另外推荐好友的一本书《狩之尸鬼。
Lin Xuan started from the beginning, reading word by word. A month later, still in that quiet room, Lin Xuan sat cross-legged, but before him hung a green object supported by a faint light. He opened his mouth and spat out infant fire, continuously refining and sacrificing this object.
At first glance, it resembled the process of refining magic treasures, but upon closer inspection, the green object's shape was extremely peculiar—it clearly wasn't a weapon like swords or spears, more akin to clothing. Of course, it was naturally Lin Xuan's armor he was refining.
However, this set wasn't the Green Flame Qilin Armor; although he was an advanced cultivator in his后期 stage, it was his first time learning armor-making, so he was still very unfamiliar with it. Lin Xuan dared not start refining rashly—otherwise, those precious materials would be wasted if something went wrong.
He planned to learn from the simplest and most basic methods first. Monday, please recommend me a vote, thanks for everyone's support! Additionally, I'm recommending my friend's book, "Hunting Corpse Ghosts."
"How long will it take to form the婴?"
"None of your business. Miss will have me taking care of her, so there's no problem with forming the元婴," Little Tao said with a slight upturn of her chin, her face full of disdain. This girl wasn't just a little bit biased against Lin Xuan.
Half an hour later, Lin Xuan returned to his cave dwelling. Although Little Tao was fiery-tempered, in terms of cunning, she couldn't match Lin Xuan at all, and he finally got the information out of her.
Moon's formation of the婴 would be different from that of ordinary people. She first had to refine the Deva Blood, then mix it with her true essence. There was no danger involved, but a lot of time would be needed—ranging from several months to one year.
This didn't match Lin Xuan's expectations, but it wasn't a problem. As long as the formation of the婴 went smoothly, spending some time on it wouldn't be an issue. Lin Xuan put his mind at ease and prepared to properly nurture his damaged essence energy.
Crossing his legs in meditation, Lin Xuan first performed several cycles of the Grand Circulation, allowing his essence, qi, and spirit to recover to their best state. Then he stretched out his hand, tapped his waist, and took a small jade bottle out. From it, he poured out a pinkish pill.
It was undoubtedly the先天回元丹!
Lin Xuan hesitated not as he placed it in his mouth, then used Inner Vision to observe. In his dantian, threads of spiritual energy floated, but they were of various colors—five in total.
Originally, the spirit root Lin Xuan had refined from the Moon Clan's sacred fruit was wood-type. However, since successfully forming a妖丹, for some reason, that spiritual energy had turned into five colors.
This change wasn't mentioned in the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens Art, but Lin Xuan was delighted instead of alarmed—five-colored spiritual energy harmonized with the Five Elements, greatly benefiting his cultivation. Two元婴 sat facing each other, and a floating five-colored妖丹 hovered above them. However, upon closer inspection, it became clear that both元婴 looked listless, and the color of the妖丹 was extremely pale.
During his journey on the River Wuyi, Lin Xuan had lost much of his innate essence energy. He slowly refined the medicinal power entering his dantian through deep breathing and meditation. Time passed gradually.
Seven days later, Lin Xuan's complexion improved significantly. He took another先天回元丹 and swallowed it before meditating again.
In this way, time flew by. Originally, he needed six months to recover from his injuries, but with the help of medicinal pills, he fully recovered in just over twenty days.
However, Lin Xuan didn't leave his cave dwelling.
After so many years of busy work, he seemed to have not properly cultivated for a long time. Besides, there were many matters he needed to handle now. Lin Xuan decided to close himself off and meditate for several years.
Of course, after his injuries healed, he immediately checked on Moon's progress. The room was still filled with red light, more dazzling than before. It seemed the fusion went smoothly; Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief as he returned to his cave dwelling.

It had been widely used for millions of years but gradually declined in later cultivation worlds, with the techniques for making armor nearly lost.
Youmu didn't need to be mentioned; even in Cloud Province, a cultivation holy land, armor-making was still a legendary skill.
Lin Xuan's previous shallow understanding and limited experience were understandable. Now that his horizons had broadened, he naturally noticed something odd: aside from the Nine Heavens Mystical Art, the Azure Star Field, the mysterious jade pendant, even Moon—everything seemed to have originated in Youmu.
And armor-making was no exception; it too had spread to Youmu. Connecting all these events made Lin Xuan wonder if Youmu truly was the barbarian land people talked about? Or were there unknown secrets hidden within?
Shaking his head, he couldn't help but doubt. After all, with no extra clues in hand, and considering that even if those ancient secrets were uncovered, they might not be beneficial to him.
Still, he should first make armor.
Lin Xuan sank his consciousness into the jade cylinder.
Like magic treasures, there were various methods for making armor, roughly divided into two categories. One was ordinary armor, while the other could upgrade and grow with the owner's cultivation.
The former was simpler but had limited power. The latter required a lot of materials, mostly rare items. However, one advantage was that this type of armor could be refined multiple times.
Starting from the simplest form, once his master's cultivation improved, he could seek out more materials to upgrade the armor. The benefits were obvious.
Better not do it unless he did it well.
Lin Xuan had thoroughly studied armor-making when he first formed his金丹. He finally chose a set of treasures called the Green Flame Qilin Armor.
However, as with everything, there was both an advantage and a disadvantage. This armor's defensive capabilities were unparalleled, but the materials required were extremely rare—hundreds in total, many of which had long disappeared from the mortal world.
Even with his unique experiences, Lin Xuan only managed to gather all the necessary materials now that he had recovered his essence energy. He decided to refine this eagerly awaited treasure armor. With it, facing stronger opponents would give him more confidence.
Lin Xuan thought like this and then sank his consciousness into the jade cylinder. After all, armor-making was a lost art; he needed to study it carefully.
Lin Xuan started from the beginning, reading word by word. A month later, still in that quiet room, Lin Xuan sat cross-legged, but before him hung a green object supported by a faint light. He opened his mouth and spat out infant fire, continuously refining and sacrificing this object.
At first glance, it resembled the process of refining magic treasures, but upon closer inspection, the green object's shape was extremely peculiar—it clearly wasn't a weapon like swords or spears, more akin to clothing. Of course, it was naturally Lin Xuan's armor he was refining.
However, this set wasn't the Green Flame Qilin Armor; although he was an advanced cultivator in his后期 stage, it was his first time learning armor-making, so he was still very unfamiliar with it. Lin Xuan dared not start refining rashly—otherwise, those precious materials would be wasted if something went wrong.
He planned to learn from the simplest and most basic methods first. Monday, please recommend me a vote, thanks for everyone's support! Additionally, I'm recommending my friend's book, "Hunting Corpse Ghosts."
