Chapter 710: Chapter 331: Free Trade, Chongxuan’s Hope
Zheng Fa is now showing exceptional respect for Haori Mountain—to the point where he organized a symposium on Haori Mountain Refining Secret Technique at Heavenly Art Island.
Watching Zheng Fa, Lady Xuanhua, and the disciples diligently study the Haori Mountain Refining Secret Technique, Elder Han had only one expression:
You truly don’t regard Haori Mountain as anything…
It’s too much bullying!
Since Tianhe Sect and Haori Mountain are both one of the Five Sects, he couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy, sowhat akin to the feeling of rabbits mourning for foxes.
“Elder Han?” As he was silently pondering, Zheng Fa suddenly raised his head and asked him, “Are you not interested in Haori Mountain’s refining thod?”
“? I can?”
Zheng Fa nodded and answered as if it was obvious, “You’re also a mber of the Heavenly Craft Pavilion.”
“Interested!”
Elder Han’s eyes brightened, and he moved closer to Zheng Fa and the others, not having ti for sorrow—if rabbits die, and foxes get a share of rabbit at… then perhaps the tears of sorrow would flow from the corner of the mouth.
Objectively speaking, the refining secret techniques given by Haori Mountain were unable to solve all the problems Jiushan Sect faces in artifact refining:
For instance, the integration of Shenxiao Warship and Immortal Formation might be in a realm that Haori Mountain cannot reach.
“This ‘Heavenly Fire Refining Treasure Technique’, though it only contains a part for the Golden Core, lives up to the na of one of the Five Sects’ secrets.”
Setting down the jade tube, Lady Xuanhua sincerely sighed, evidently quite impressed.
Elder Han opened his mouth slightly, shook his head, and said, “Among the Five Sects, our Tianhe Sword Dao stands unmatched, the Supre Dao Alchemy is peerless, and Haori Mountain’s Artifact Refining thod also leads the world.”
“I previously thought Haori Mountain’s refining was impressive, but our Tianhe Sect shouldn’t fall short.”
“Just by looking at this ‘Heavenly Fire Refining Treasure Technique’, one can see that the accumulation of Haori Mountain in artifact refining over several epochs is far beyond what our Tianhe Sect can compare to…”
Zheng Fa agreed inwardly.
Refining thods of the Xuanwei Realm are more about experiential accumulation.
For Jiushan Sect, the tens of thousands of years of experience accumulated by the Tianhe Sect are beyond their reach.
The issue is, Haori Mountain is even older than Tianhe Sect!
Even though Tianhe Venerable has seized the secret techniques from various sects, it’s imaginable that after the death of Tianhe Venerable, the Tianhe Sect couldn’t retain those secrets.
A cultivation thod that stops at the Golden Core Stage, ‘Heavenly Fire Refining Treasure Technique’, forces Elder Han to reluctantly admit that Tianhe Sect’s refining is inferior to Haori Mountain.
In a nutshell:
Haori Mountain’s kindness cannot be repaid!
…
“Although ‘Heavenly Fire Refining Treasure Technique’ reaches only the Golden Core Stage, its system is complete and exceptionally suits the current situation of our Jiushan Sect…” Lady Xuanhua’s face bead with happiness, “What we lack is the foundation.”
This statent resonated deeply with Zheng Fa.
His design for Jiushan Realm’s industrial technology is essentially about two things—borrowing the experience and foundation of the hundred arts of cultivation from the Xuanwei Realm and transforming it with scientific concepts and thods.
High-level cultivation thods are naturally excellent.
But foundational spells are often the most important—such as Jiushan Agriculture, which grew steadily through basic cultivation thods.
Needless to say, this is perfect for cultivating new artifact refiners.
To what extent is the system of ‘Heavenly Fire Refining Treasure Technique’ complete?
Within it, not only are there refining spells, there’s also analysis and design of many common magic artifacts, comparison of various refining spiritual materials, which other sects lack:
This collection of vast original data requires conscious, year-after-year accumulation.
The accumulation of Haori Mountain in this aspect amazed even Zheng Fa.
What surprised him even more were the experintal results of these secret techniques.
Looking at various experintal data, joy filled Zheng Fa’s heart as he looked up and asked Lady Xuanhua:
“Using this ‘Heavenly Fire Refining Treasure Technique’, can the refining cost of magic artifacts be reduced to 80% of what it was? Efficiency increased on average by 20%?”
Lady Xuanhua also had joyous eyes, pointing to several numbers in the records and smiling:
“According to ‘Heavenly Fire Refining Treasure Technique’, there are actually improvents needed in our previous artifact refining techniques…so spiritual materials not only were useless but also impaired the magical treasure’s power.”
“From experintal results, flying-type magic artifacts are 30% faster than before.”
“Attack-type magic artifacts have 15% more power.”
“Defense-type magic artifacts are 20% more solid.”
“And this is with our disciples not fully learning ‘Heavenly Fire Refining Treasure Technique’ yet.”
Lady Xuanhua’s words were full of anticipation.
Zheng Fa was also filled with longing:
The first trial of ‘Heavenly Fire Refining Treasure Technique’ produced such results; if Jiushan Sect could fully absorb these teachings, significant progress is anticipated.
The path of artifact refining for Jiushan Sect might stand on the shoulders of the giant Haori Mountain, achieving flight!
As for whether Haori Mountain is willing to give them a perch…
“It’s their voluntary choice!”
Zheng Fa sighed to the two, “Once our Jiushan Sect’s Heavenly Craft Pavilion develops, we must offer a shrine for Haori Mountain!”
Upon hearing, Elder Han frowned, feeling uneasy:
These words, why do they sound like cursing Haori Mountain to death?
…
Half a month later, Zheng Fa arrived at the docks of Jiushan District Market, looking at thirty or so Shenxiao Warships lifting into the air, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes—
On these warships are the fruits of these days from Jiushan Realm:
For instance, pills refined by Song Sect Leader with the Alchemist Guild.
For instance, magic artifacts refined by Lady Xuanhua and the Heavenly Craft Pavilion.
Or even the specialties of Jiushan Sect—various Spirit Talismans.
Even clothing woven by the mortal world of Jiushan Realm, and the grains produced.
He said to Han Qi:
“Only do business with the major sects of the Hundred Immortals Alliance, do not approach Chongxuan Sect’s territory.”
“Safety is paramount.”
Han Qi nodded respectfully and said, “Sect Leader, rest assured, I understand.”
