Chapter 74: The Risks of Artifact Forging
The artificer did not have to take on any of the risk Regardless of whether it succeeded or not, the artificer would still take their pay
—This was the fundamental rule of the artificer world
“I’ve followed Great Master Yao for soh, and he rarely fails,” said Qin Lie
“Great Master Yao?” Zhuo Qian’s expression was strange “Forget about it In the eyes of true artificers, he is unacceptable”
“How so?”
“The reason his success rate is very high is that he always forges the way he wants instead of taking into account a martial practitioner’s requirements, rank, and physique as well as the art they cultivate For exa, but they do notto their oishes rather thanis definitely easy tothat is , but if the custo it, they wouldn’t wear it, right?”
“Mn”
“A true artificer will not forge however they wish, but will consider everything about a martial practitioner Their rank, the art they cultivate in, the strength of their body, their height, the size of their hands, and even the thickness of their fingers!” Zhuo Qian’s expression was stern “Only through this can the artifact produced feel comfortable when touched by a martial practitioner and, when used, will it feel like a part of the user’s body and greatly increase the power of the martial practitioner”
Zhuo Qian s and the process that a high ranked artificer her like this However, the spirit artifact produced is one of a kind and the most suitable for the intended person; it can unlock a martial practitioner’s true power”
“After what you have said, I finally understand” Qin Lie nodded and showed a thoughtful expression
“Tu Ze and I did not go to Great Master Yao because, first, his artificer level is not high, and the other reason is that he will not make a spirit artifact tailored to us” Zhuo Qian’s brow creased slightly and sincerely said, “Qin Lie, I know you are very interested in artifact forging, but that Great Master Yao…can’t really be said to be a fara”
“No problerahed
“Mn, the outside has not been peaceful recently Be careful and try to not leave the city” Zhuo Qian thought and then added on, “Do not take any erous Many people have died recently, and not just those from Nebula Pavilion or Shattered Ice Manor, even those from Crimson Flame association and Water Moon Sect have been repeatedly attacked by spirit beasts Many martial practitioners have also died there”
Qin Lie’s expression changed Crimson Flame association and Water Moon Sect were also Limestone rank forces They were not distant from Icestone City and were also close to the Arctic Mountain Range He hadn’t expected that they would also be attacked by spirit beasts
“What happened?” he asked in puzzlement
“I heard that Dark Asura Hall has said that the beast king of the Arctic Mountain Range has changed In the past, the spirit beast king of the Arctic Mountain Range was the ‘Icestone Snow Wolf King’”
Zhuo Qian’s expression was grave “After it left, the spirit beasts of the Arctic Mountain Range underwent a bloody conflict and the ‘Purple-eyed Fla After this violent and vicious spirit beast ascended, he directly destroyed the past agree’ had e nue have cos at the low ranking forces nearby
“This conflict will most likely not end that quickly That ‘Purple-eyed Fla’ needs toree martial practitioners from Dark Asura Hall and Seven Fiends Valley have been deployed They will soon go to the Arctic Mountain Range to kill the spirit beasts They need to create an advantage in the battle and put pressure on that ‘Purple-Eyed Flareement
“So it won’t be peaceful in the near future, and there will be many people ill die The spirit beasts will becoreement is made, the battle between the two sides will continue Shattered Ice Manor, Nebula Pavilion, Crimson Flame association, Water Moon Sect, and the other Lie will be pulled into this conflict They will be organized by Black Iron powers like Dark Asura Hall and Seven Fiends Valley to wage a large scale conflict against the spirit beasts”
Zhuo Qian explained the details and told him the reason it would not be peaceful in the near future so he would be careful and not take missions unless it was necessary
Qin Lie noted it down
A fortnight later, the conflict between the spirit beasts and martial practitioners did not seem to subside and instead becaradually intensified
Dozens of people from Nebula Pavilion alone had died, and even more ounded When Qin Lie went to Yao Tai’s place, he would always see Yao Tai hurrying to repair spirit artifacts He did not have the free tier
The three elders, Du Haitian, Wei Xing, and Chu Yan, see the outsides with their subordinates and hunting the spirit beasts that appeared near Icestone City They would occasionally return to Nebula Pavilion to replenish their food supply and spirit stones Each of them had heavy expressions; many had visible wounds, and there were people that did not return
Even Ye Yangqiu, who usually was just responsible for the Discipline Hall, also had to participate under heavy pressure and started to clear out the spirit beasts in the surroundings
The subordinate forces of Nebula Pavilion, such as the Ling, Du, and Gao Families, had to tes of the spirit beasts
Nebula Pavilion’s cultivation grounds, like the Combat Room and the Gravity Room, were suddenly full of people Everyon cultivation
Because, as the pressure increased, the pavilion had arranged many for missions Any martial practitioner of Nebula Pavilion could be asked to coo out, there was the risk of death, so all the martial practitioners of the pavilion becaent
“Yesterday, a commander of Dark Asura Hall died in battle in the Arctic Mountain Range That coe of the Manifestation Real Golden Horn Lizard’ It really is terrifying The fact that a powerful warrior whose cultivation was at the e of the Manifestation Real to think about”
“There is a e of the Manifestation real Didn’t he kill two Rank Three ‘Blue-eyed Toads’?”
