"Then eight spiritual swords!"

Mo Hua said with a smile.

He stuffed the backbone of the fire demon wolf into Ouyang Mu's arms, not allowing him to refuse:

"Then it's settled. You can hold this spine for now. You can come to the mountain to find me next week, and I'll tell you what sword you want to practice."

After saying that, Mo Hua waved his hand and left.

Ouyang Mu stayed where he was, holding the fresh wolf demon spine with the remaining heat of the flame in his hand, and his heart seemed to be warmed by the blazing flame.

This Senior Brother Mo is such a good man!

Ouyang Mu looked at the ink painting's retreating figure, feeling grateful in his heart.

…

Ten days passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was Xunxiu, and Mo Hua went to Demon Refining Mountain again.

And Ouyang Mu was waiting for him as promised.

He is now burdened with a "debt" of five hundred meritorious deeds, and feels a heavy pressure on his shoulders. He does not want to live up to Mo Hua's kindness in giving him the fire demon wolf's spine, so he urgently wants to do something for Mo Hua.

"Senior Brother Mo, what sword do you want to make?"

Mo Hua handed the sword-making diagram he had prepared in advance to Ouyang Mu.

Ouyang Mu took it, glanced at it, and said:

"Senior Brother Mo, your sword is so strange...it's not the shape of a normal spiritual sword..."

Mo Hua said in his heart that he was indeed from Tai'amen, but you couldn't tell at a glance.

"This sword is indeed somewhat different." Mo Hua nodded.

Ouyang Mu muttered while watching:

"The appearance is the same, but the structure is different..."

"The materials are a bit cheap and not very strong."

"There is room for formations inside, but this seems...not the reinforcement or front-opening formations used by ordinary spirit swords?"

Ouyang Mu drew a sword diagram with his hand and said in surprise:

"...It's a sword formation!"

"The sword formation is not sealed inside, the sword making is open source..."

…

Ouyang Mu muttered, his face fell, and he said dejectedly: "Senior Brother Mo, I can't refine this kind of spiritual sword..."

"What's wrong?"

Ouyang Mu said: "This is not a standard spirit sword. It does not use an ordinary formation, but a sword formation."

"I haven't learned the sword formation yet. I have to wait until I enter the inner sect and sign a death contract before the sect can teach it."

"What the elders and teachers are teaching now is, apart from the sword formation, the 'Tai'a Sword Forging Technique' at the pure level of weapon refining."

"It's okay," Mo Hua said, "You don't have to worry about the sword formation, just refine the sword."

"oh."

Ouyang Mu nodded.

He didn't know how Brother Mo was going to solve the sword formation issue.

In his impression, Taixu Sect did not seem to have a special sword formation inheritance.

Even if there were, it would be impossible to teach it now.

But Ouyang Mu was polite and didn't ask any more questions.

It's just sword making, no sword formation is involved. Even though the shape is a bit special, it's not difficult to refine it.

Ouyang Mu looked at the sword-making diagram given by Mo Hua several times.

Mo Hua was observing the words and expressions on the side, and suddenly asked: "Xiao Mumu, what do you think of the design of this sword casting diagram?"

Ouyang Mu was startled, "How about what?"

"That's right," Mo Hua thought for a while and said, "How is the level? Is there anything that needs improvement..."

Ouyang Mugang was about to speak, but when the words came to his lips, he asked carefully:

"Senior Brother Mo, who designed this sword-making diagram?"

Mo Hua blinked and said vaguely:

"I asked... a junior from the sect who is in the middle stage of foundation building and has some knowledge of weapon refining to design it..."

Ouyang Mu felt relieved and commented:

"It's a complete mess."

Mo Hua felt a little pain in his heart.

This sword-making diagram was "carefully" designed by him by referring to many spiritual sword diagrams and combining it with the sword formation.

As a result, Xiaomu said it was "a complete mess"...

Ouyang Mu didn't notice Mo Hua's expression and continued: "He should be a layman... not really a layman, but half a layman, half a bucket of water..."

Mo Hua's eyelids twitched and he took a deep breath, "Then what do you think should be done to change it?"

As soon as Ouyang Mu talked about making swords, he was completely absorbed in it. He immediately took out a pen and paper and drew on the spot for Mo Hua to see.

"First of all, the material of the spirit sword is not very good."

"Spiritual swords are made of gold, so they all use metal monster materials. Generally speaking, it is correct. However, these types of materials have poor fusion properties and are not good at transmitting spiritual power."

"Also, the five elements produce and restrain, there is both 'restraint' and 'creation'."

"Sometimes it is not necessary to use all gold-based materials for a gold-based spiritual sword. Among the five elements, gold is born from the earth, so appropriately using some materials from earth-based monsters will have a finishing touch..."

"This is a matter of material, followed by form."

"The shape of this spiritual sword is a bit conflicting."

"Generally speaking, if a spiritual sword is used for close-quarters killing, the material must be hard and the blade must be sharp. Try to blow the hair off and break the hair, and cut iron like clay..."

"If we focus on sword energy, the sword body should be thinner and the spiritual power transmission should be better..."

"This sword is very heavy, but the material is not good enough, it is not hard enough, and the spiritual power does not penetrate well..."

"There is also the sword formation part. Although it is open source, judging from the formation media layer left behind, this sword formation has no fit with this spiritual sword."

"A sword is a sword, and a sword formation is a sword formation. The two have nothing to do with each other."

"This won't work. Only when the sword is adapted to the sword formation can the power of the sword technique be maximized..."

…

Ouyang Mu, who is usually dull, suddenly became eloquent when he talked about sword making.

And what he said were things that Mo Hua had never noticed before.

Sure enough, every other line is like a mountain.

Even if they are both weapon refining, sword making and other weapon refining categories are very different, and they have extremely deep sects.

Mo Hua looked at Ouyang Mu with admiration in his eyes.

This is "professional"!

He is worthy of being a direct disciple of the Ouyang family of Tai Amen.

Ouyang Mu was talking, and when Mo Hua looked at him with bright eyes, he suddenly became shy again, "I... just said it casually. If I say something wrong, please don't mind, Senior Brother Mo."

"It's okay, it's okay. That's very good."

Mo Hua smiled and nodded, but said in his heart, even if you are wrong, I can't tell...

Mo Hua looked at Ouyang Mu again and asked:

"Do you want to be a swordsmith in the future?"

When Ouyang Mu heard this, his expression was a little complicated, and finally he sighed, "My father won't let me..."

Mo Hua was very surprised and said strangely:

"Why didn't your father let you?"

Ouyang Mu said: "My father thinks that the reason why Tai'amen was not famous before was because it paid too much attention to the 'sword-making skill'."

"Those who are in the limelight are those who use swords, not those who forge them."

"Tai'Amen is improving now because the elders decided to vigorously promote Tai'a Men's Tai'a sword technique based on sword-making skills, and carry it forward step by step."

"And within the sect, all qualified disciples must learn swordsmanship."
