"Take the golden vertical pupil of the multi-eyed snake for example. If ordinary cultivators want to refine it, they can only rely on their own magic power to forcibly grind away the distortion force in it. This is also the most reliable way. Use magic power to dispel the distortion force, but if you are not a person with great magic power, the time required will increase exponentially, and it will become more and more difficult as time goes by."

"Because of this, the price of deformed beast materials remains high. Even if it is a first-level deformed material, the price will be five times higher than the same first-level spiritual material! And there is no market for it, and it is impossible to see it in the market." Boss Zhao said with a smile.

"Oh... then what are the advantages of these abnormal materials for cultivators compared to spiritual materials?"

"This is the important reason. Abnormal materials are different from spiritual materials. Spiritual materials can be refined into accumulations, so the accumulation tools that can be assembled from this 'accumulation' will never exceed its own upper limit; but abnormal materials are different. The power of abnormal materials lies in their ability to devour and fuse each other, and they are not bound by their upper limit! The more powerful the accumulation tool, the proportion of abnormal materials required to accumulate even exceeds the proportion of spiritual materials!"

"This is the meaning of 'abnormal is accumulation' in the Hundred Abnormalities Chart!"

"Ah? Abnormal materials can also be refined into accumulations?"

"Wrong, Abnormal materials must not be refined into accumulation! Because if you want the abnormal material to be free from the upper limit, you must retain part of or even completely retain its distortion power. On weekdays, you not only have to spend a lot of mana and spirit to suppress the distortion power, but also be careful of the distortion power backlashing yourself at critical moments. This is the principle of "accumulation is not abnormality", so..."

"The premise of wanting to have the powerful characteristics of abnormal materials is that you dare to bet that you can definitely suppress the distortion power! Otherwise, the abnormal material without the distortion power is equivalent to waste. You might as well use spiritual materials instead. Why take this risk?"

Yan Buji's face twitched.

It turns out that only brave monks dare to use this abnormal material. Even if ordinary people get abnormal materials, they probably think of exchanging them for some spiritual stones. There is no need to take risks to use them.

"From what the boss said, mana can suppress and dissipate the distortion force?"

"Yes, otherwise how dare the cultivators use the materials from the deformed beasts to strengthen their own strength?"

"That means it is impossible to dissipate the distortion force only through pure mana, right? There should be some magic that can do it..."

"Hey, you've got the point. For cultivators with good foundation, the distortion force is not a problem for them at all. There are many ways to deal with it. But you can't cross the bottom line. There is a limit to how much distortion force a cultivator can withstand. It just means that the better the foundation, the more distortion force a cultivator can withstand. But it is definitely not possible to use deformed materials to strengthen yourself infinitely."

"If someone can really accommodate deformed materials without limit, wouldn't they be invincible? The same principle applies to spiritual materials. No one can accommodate spiritual materials without limit and refine them into accumulation. For a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, no matter how talented you are, you can only use three accumulation tools at most, right?" Boss Zhao sighed.

"I see, thank you for your help, boss."

"You're welcome. If you're really interested in that multi-eyed snake, I have a book on spiritual protection. You..."

"Forget about the practice. Can't you see my strength, boss?"

"I can't see it. There's something on you that blocks my spiritual awareness, unless you're willing to let me explore your dantian."

Yan Buji rolled his eyes and waved his hand: "Then I'll leave first."

"Come often, shopkeeper Yan."

After Yan Buji returned to Baibaohang, he went upstairs to think carefully.

Deformed materials, spiritual materials, these are just materials, but they come from different sources.

But deformed materials are more dangerous. If you want to use deformed materials, you must consider the influence of the distortion force.

Accumulation tools!

Speaking of which, Yan Buji has two accumulation tools, one broken and the other intact, both brought from the mortal world.

I don't know what the small wooden square hammer is for. Even if I practiced magic power to test it, there was no movement.

But the short knife can be used. After injecting mana, it will form a very sharp blood light, and it is as easy to cut bluestone as tofu!

"But my combat power is reflected in the martial arts, and this short knife does not match my blood sky ascension degree."

Although the blood sky ascension degree is the main mysterious skill for Yan Buji to enter the cultivation world, because the road to martial arts has been cut off, Yan Buji has been studying the planting wood art for some time, but has not studied it much.

"Eh? I don't know if the true essence can be injected into the short knife."

When Liu Chuan was killed, it was used as an ordinary weapon. I didn't try whether the true essence can activate the accumulation tool. Moreover, this accumulation tool is related to the former leader of the Blood Flow Sect. Maybe it can?

Yan Buji took out the ring on his finger and flashed, and a blood-red short knife appeared out of thin air in his hand.

Storage accumulation tools are really convenient!

Storage accumulation tools are different from combat and auxiliary cultivation accumulation tools. They belong to the category of heterogeneous accumulation tools. Normally, you don't need to rely on mana to warm it up when you wear it on your body, but Yan Buji has to use mana to refine it every day to maintain that vague sense of connection.

Otherwise, it always feels very uncomfortable to use.

Yan Buji tried to inject the true essence, and there was no rejection as imagined, but it was more compatible than mana!

It was still a blood-red edge, but the consumption was 50% less than mana!

"That's good! The use of true essence for the short sword consumes less energy. Even if it doesn't fit my fighting style, it can achieve unexpected results at critical moments!"

For example, when you really can't break the enemy's defense, the importance of accumulation can be reflected.

Even if this short knife is probably just the most basic first-turn accumulation tool, it consumes less energy with true essence, so why not make good use of it?

It seems that ancient warriors also use accumulation tools, or in other words, they are unique weapons used by ancient warriors. The style of this accumulation tool in his hand should be assembled by imitating the unique weapons used by ancient warriors, because Yan Buji can see the situation of each accumulation component in the short knife through his spiritual sense.

The need for mana sacrifice and warming is also to ensure that the durability of the short knife will not decrease too much.

There will be loss in any use, which is inevitable.

This short knife is likely to only support a few high-intensity battles, but if it is only used for a one-hit kill, it should be able to last longer.

Yan Buji calculated the pros and cons. Now the deformed beast may be able to fight for him. Relying on the spiritual sense strengthened by the blood sky ascension degree, he knows that he is different from the ordinary first-level Qi refining cultivators, and his strength should be around the fourth to fifth level of Qi refining.

But the power of the monster is unknown except for its innate magic. Even if I can withstand the opponent's illusion, it will be useless if I can't penetrate its defense.

"It would be great if I could find someone to defeat the monster together. Unfortunately, my public identity is not suitable for exposure." Yan Buji thought about it carefully and decided to find out if there were any groups of casual cultivators nearby who wanted to seek wealth and fame in danger.
