Research-Style Cultivation, Starting by Refusing to Be a Furnace – Chapter 33

Ch 33: Gun Complete!

Looking at the nearly 200 contribution point deficit, Wei Xing had no choice but to go to Central Peak again to accept pill refining tasks.

Day after day of spiritual power depletion, recovery, depletion, and recovery, just to quickly refine the pills and exchange them for the magic formation he needed.

As a result, Wei Xing couldn’t help but sigh, “I really have the life of a beast of burden!”.

A month later, at Central Peak, in the Trading Pavilion, Wei Xing finally exchanged for the Spirit Gathering Formation he needed. He didn’t stop at all, mainly because he heard that the one called Fu San had been looking for him recently.

Wei Xing didn’t want to cause trouble, he just wanted to hurry back and make the bullets.

Wei Xing didn’t want to meet Fu San, that rogue, and another reason was that the other party might be very strong.

“That day, I gave Jian San a Spirit Returning Pill, but Jian San said it was useless to him. The Spirit Returning Pill is a pill for the Mid-Dao Breath stage, which means that Jian San is at least at the Late-Dao Breath Realm or above. That day, Fu San clashed with Jian San, and I personally heard Fu San say that he was not afraid of Jian San. Although Fu San chickened out in the end, it still shows that at least this Fu San is around the Late-Dao Breath Realm,” Wei Xing speculated in his heart.

Although he had been working hard recently, he was a little stronger than the Entry-Dao Breath Realm, but not even at the Early-Dao Breath stage. Facing an opponent in the Late-Dao Breath stage, it was better for him to be a coward. Wei Xing directly admitted defeat. The difference in realm strength was too great, and his Glock pistol was not fully trained yet, so there was no need to go and die.

Back to Dan Peak, inside the Pill Refining Room.

Wei Xing was reading the Spirit Stabilization Formation attached to the Spirit Gathering Formation he had exchanged for. He threw the Spirit Gathering Formation into his storage bag.

“This Spirit Stabilization Formation is also simple. Engrave the formation patterns on the required object or formation to achieve the function of stabilizing spiritual energy. To put it bluntly, it is to suppress spiritual energy and evenly distribute the spiritual energy inside the object, so that a certain part does not have too high a concentration of spiritual energy and cannot withstand it. This is a clever idea,” Wei Xing analyzed after reading the Spirit Stabilization Formation.

This Spirit Stabilization Formation is not difficult to engrave, it is just using spiritual power to engrave according to the formation diagram. First engrave some formation patterns, and then these formation patterns form a formation diagram covering the formation or object, playing a role in stabilizing spiritual energy.

However, it is necessary to complete the formation diagram in one go, so that it can flow on its own. If there is a slight pause, this formation will dissipate and be useless. The larger the formation or object, the more massive the spiritual power required for this formation.

Wei Xing first engraved the formation patterns on the finished Qi and Blood Pills and Spirit Returning Pills that had not been miniaturized, but the first time he engraved, the formation dissipated as soon as he paused.

Wei Xing was not annoyed by this, he just engraved stroke by stroke, and if it didn’t work, he would start over. He didn’t care about excessive use of spiritual power or depletion of spiritual power. He replenished it by frantically drinking some Spirit Spring Water and eating some Spirit Food, and if that didn’t work, he would rest.

After a full half month, Wei Xing finally mastered this Spirit Stabilization Formation!

Dragging his tired body, looking at the formation diagrams flowing on the Qi and Blood Pills and Spirit Returning Pills, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Fortunately, it is only a Dao Breath formation, otherwise, with my current level of spiritual power, I would not be able to complete such consumption at all.”

Wei Xing did not continue, but first recorded all the details of engraving the Spirit Stabilization Formation, including the amount of spiritual power consumed, the time for each step of the formation pattern, and the overall time required for the Spirit Stabilization Formation. In his opinion, these results are the key to whether bullets can be mass-produced in the future.

Looking at his experimental records, Wei Xing was quite proud.

“Now that this Spirit Stabilization Formation is complete, the last step is to engrave the formation on this miniaturized Spirit Returning Pill.”

Facts have proved that engraving a formation in front of a small steel ball-like Spirit Returning Pill that may explode at any time is not as easy as Wei Xing thought.

“Bang”, although Wei Xing reacted extremely quickly and threw the pill away before the Spirit Returning Pill exploded, he was still blown up, especially his newly grown eyebrows were burned by the high temperature of the explosion again.

“Ten seconds, this unstable Spirit Returning Pill will explode in the tenth second after the pill is formed!” Wei Xing didn’t care that his eyebrows were burned off, but instead calculated the explosion time of the Spirit Returning Pill.

“That means I have to complete the formation engraving within ten seconds!”

“Bang”

“Bang”

“Bang”

…….

After repeated failures, ten days later, Wei Xing finally engraved this Spirit Stabilization Formation on this small steel ball-sized Spirit Returning Pill.

“One two three four five six seven eight nine ten!”

Wei Xing silently recited in his heart, and the pill did not explode! Wei Xing looked at the steadily formed pill and laughed excitedly: “Hahaha, hahaha, it’s done! I did it!”.

Wei Xing first recorded the data of this success, and also found that the spiritual power consumption required to refine a small steel ball-like Spirit Returning Pill was only one-eighth of the original, and then engraved the Spirit Stabilization Formation on the surface of the pill, and a Spirit Returning Pill in a critical explosion state in understanding was completed.

Half a day later, Wei Xing concocted a pile of small Spirit Returning Pills in the same way.

Subsequently, Wei Xing took out his Three Yuan Cauldron, bullet mold, and refined some bullet magazines and bullet heads.

Putting this small steel ball-like Spirit Returning Pill at the bottom of the magazine, then filling and compacting it, putting the bullet head into the magazine, and then tightly combining the two together, a ‘bullet’ was made by Wei Xing!

Wei Xing carefully loaded the bullets into the Glock pistol, ready to try it out.

“Where should I try it?”, Wei Xing thought: “It definitely won’t work inside the peak, the gunshots will definitely be heard, and if someone is attracted to check it out, it will be exposed.”

Qingyuan Mountain, this Qingyuan Temple is in the sky above the top of Qingyuan Mountain, Wei Xing ran to the foot of Qingyuan Mountain.

Looking at the trees in front of him, Wei Xing raised his gun and pulled the trigger, only to hear a “click” sound, and then it was extremely quiet, and the gunshot that Wei Xing imagined did not come!

“Damn it, don’t mess with me” Looking at the silent scene, Wei Xing panicked a little, so many days of effort cannot turn into foam here!

Wei Xing unloaded the magazine and found that the bullet in the gun body had not been fired and was still quietly lying in the barrel.

“What is the reason?” Wei Xing looked at the bullet and pondered for a long time before he suddenly realized!

“It turns out that I have a habitual way of thinking! The force of this firing pin is only for the bottom of ordinary bullets, this is my pill, and the Spirit Stabilization Formation is engraved on the outside. To break the Spirit Stabilization Formation, the required impact force should be greater!”

“No, no,” Wei Xing suddenly had inspiration again and said: “Not only does the firing pin need more force! There should be less spiritual power in this Spirit Stabilization Formation, so that the formation can be easily broken! The Spirit Returning Pill can’t be stabilized and explode! Then detonate the gunpowder and shoot the bullet out!”.

“So that’s how it is, so that’s how it is!”

Wei Xing finally understood this point and hurried back to the cave to modify his Glock pistol.

First, through the Three Yuan Cauldron weapon refinement, the spring behind the firing pin was refined to be thicker and have more turns to ensure that there was enough force to strike the firing pin!

Then, he continued to weaken the spiritual power when engraving the formation diagram on the Spirit Stabilization Formation on the miniaturized Spirit Returning Pill, making the Spirit Stabilization Formation more fragile, barely maintaining the state of keeping the Spirit Returning Pill from exploding, but unable to withstand external strikes.

Wei Xing later increased the thickness of the bullet magazine to prevent the power of the Spirit Returning Pill plus gunpowder from being too great and causing the bullet to explode in the chamber, and thickened the barrel, and made corresponding changes to the magazine.

Finally, a brand new Glock pistol filled with bullets was remade by Wei Xing!

Qingyuan Mountain, at the foot of the mountain, as Wei Xing pulled the trigger, a “bang, bang, bang” sound came! The trees in front of the muzzle were riddled with holes and then crashed down.

Looking at all this, Wei Xing jumped up with the Glock pistol in his hand, “Hahaha, it’s done, this time it’s really done! From now on, I’m saved, I’m saved!”.

Wei Xing regarded the treasure in his hand as a life-saving thing, taking it away to escape from the Myriad Desires Sect and change the fate of being picked as a cauldron!
