I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early Chapter 396

Chapter 396: Chapter 296: The Exalted Status of a Craftsman_2 Chapter 396: Chapter 296: The Exalted Status of a Craftsman_2 The gloves, being studied daily by the craftsn, were even worn for a few minutes…

Anyone daring to suggest selling them off would get slapped in the face by the craftspeople the next second!

Thus, a heavy pressure was passed onto the shoulders of the craftsn.

Laughing, Sha Mo comnted, “Master Guo, aren’t you going to hurry up and tinker with a few?

What are you daydreaming about here?”

Guo Tiezhu, a middle-aged craftsman known as Master Guo back in his village, was the most skilled blacksmith there, second only to Lu Yuan.

He sighed deeply, “I lack inspiration, after so many years, the highest I’ve achieved is Superior Level, still one level short of Legendary.”

“Youth doesn’t appreciate the value of inspiration; in old age, one looks to the sky in tears.

Now that my skills have improved, I’ve lost that surging passion!”

Lu Ying joked, “Uncle Guo, it’s because you’ve been eating too well.

...

Live a poorer life and maybe the inspiration will co back.”

After thinking, Guo Tiezhu seriously said, “There’s so truth to that…”

“Feasting every day, I truly need to live so hard days!

Starting today, no bathing, no at, no smoking, no alcohol.”

“Smoking really should be quit.”

The room was filled with joyful air.

Listening to the conversation, Lu Yuan felt very relaxed.

Actually, he was very curious about the value of Immortal Equipnt.

However, this secret could not be revealed publicly, so he could only brag about it privately with Old Cat and his beautiful fans.

Suddenly, he had a minor sudden enlightennt, with nurous fragnts unexpectedly surfacing in his mind.

Flowing water, flying birds, journeys, laughter, toil, harvest, intertwining paths, giving birth to a miracle of blossoming flowers.

This sudden enlightennt was not inspiration but a unique understanding of “luck.”

It was indescribable, yet seed to be genuinely tangible.

Using the power of “luck” to work with the flow, the equipnt forging could reach new heights, what’s also known as the “right timing.”

“Let’s make an equipnt piece to practice first!”

In his right hand, Lu Yuan held a carving knife; in his left, a small piece of “Ice Jade,” and he began carving.

The material was quite ordinary, rely a Low-quality Level Extraordinary Material, offering a slight enhancent to one’s concentration.

He was making a jade pendant.

Such small accessories were incredibly tough to craft into Extraordinary Items due to their high difficulty level.

Because ordinary armor, helts, longswords, and daggers have inherent protective properties, even if the craftsman’s skills are poor, there’s a guaranteed base benefit.

But for a jade pendant, being an ornant, there’s no such safety net; poor craftsmanship might even be inferior to the natural base material.

Lu Yuan entered a state of extre focus, his rough fingers moving with the agility of a dancer, his carving knife flipping and flying, etching various patterns on the Ice Jade.

Powder splashed everywhere.

Possibly due to the exchange with the Shu Mi Dam Civilization, Lu Yuan felt an affinity, incorporating the day’s events into the jade pendant.

An hour later, the jade pendant was complete—it was a model of a turtle retracting into its shell.

[Ice Jade · Accessory Pendant, Master Craftsman Lu Yuan has carved the model of an Undying Giant Turtle into the Ice Jade.]

[Although this turtle is retracting into its shell, it has a resolute gaze and fearless courage, fighting for the whole civilization.]

[The main color the of the piece is white and black, depicting a war that took place at the beginning of the Ninth Epoch on Pangu Continent.

(Art Piece)]

[Abilities: Cultivate one’s character, increases spiritual power recovery by 5-9%, accelerates physical recovery by 8-13%, and enhances learning concentration by 5%-18% (Ordinary Level Artificial Artifact )]

“It’s been promoted!

It’s reached Ordinary Level!”

Many craftsn gathered around to marvel.

The base material of Ice Jade was originally Low-quality, at best adding a re 3% boost to spiritual power recovery, but now it had dramatically leveled up!

Three attributes, pretty aweso.

Of course, a person can’t wear too many Extraordinary Items.

It’s impossible to wear a thousand, ten thousand jade pendants and turn oneself into a Superman.

Because between the wonders, there would be Extraordinary Interference.

Unless it was a specifically made matching set, there would inevitably be so compatibility issues.

Lu Yuan let out a sigh, but was not satisfied.

It was his first ti carving this type of base material, and he felt a bit unfamiliar with controlling the stone’s softness and hardness.

So, he picked up another piece of ice jade and carved an even more perfect Undying Giant Turtle ornant.

[Master Craftsman Lu Yuan’s casual creation, without expending too much effort, was still quite exquisite.]

[Ability: Cultivate one’s character, wearing this increases spiritual power recovery by 5-9% (Low-grade artificial artifact )]

This ti, the evaluation had actually decreased.

“How did it turn out to be just a casual creation?” Many craftsn discussed among themselves.

The second piece was obviously more exquisite than the first, yet the effect was worse.

Everyone tried to imitate it and carved their own Undying Giant Turtle.

Those craftsn who had long been imrsed in their craft could make sculptures that were very lifelike, but the highest they could achieve was “low-quality level ”; anything less was simply “low-quality level.”

Seeing this, Lu Yuan concluded, “That is to say, creation using the ‘luck’ from a civilization is very important.”

“Creation is an essential part of the birth of a large amount of Spirit Essence.

The story background is also very important.”

“But subsequent imitations and references are not very aningful.”

“Moreover, reputation might also be quite important…

Having the title of Master Craftsman, even casually working on sothing yields better results than an ordinary craftsman.”

People looked at each other, speechless.

Who would have thought that on the Pangu Continent, “reputation” could also be so important!

Why is that?

Of course, Lu Yuan actually understood that “reputation” also represented the luck of the Ninth Epoch and that it was akin to walking gold mines.

It related to more esoteric things, difficult to understand, but truly existing.

“Ladies and gentlen, strive to create Legendary Equipnt and earn the title of Master Craftsman!”

…

In the following days, Lu Yuan was entirely engrossed in his new understanding, addicted to creation, unable to extricate himself.

The fate of civilization was indeed powerful; going with the flow had great potential.

However, this concept was esoteric and seed difficult to teach.

anwhile, other scientists were busy selecting a landing site for Sky City.

People prepared to give the entire city a proper rest, rather than having it semi-floating as before.

Therefore, it was necessary to choose a location that was flat enough to support the entire weight of the city.

…

Elsewhere, the Rize Civilization finally made belated contact.

It was evident that these lizard people were very anxious, completely unclear about what had caused the conflict between the Shu Mi Dam Civilization and Sky City.

They even tentatively asked if “so help was needed”?

Lu Yuan did not hide any information from these old friends, and simply introduced them to the unspoken rules of the Eighth Epoch.

“Dear friends from the Rize Civilization, human friends, hello, I am Lu Yuan.”

“We have indeed had so interesting happenings here.

They have now been peacefully resolved.”

“(Briefly describes the whole process)…”

“The unspoken rules of the Eighth Epoch, although imposed on us by the Shu Mi Dam Civilization, are also an inevitable evolution of the future.”

“The future is brutal.

The benefits of war are truly imnse.

Even slaughtering the weakest civilizations can yield Divine Skills; a hundred Divine Skills might an thousands of Spirit Essence.

Regular developnt doesn’t really bring in much inco.”

“My friends, I urge you with all seriousness to consider these matters in advance.”

“As for the collection and utilization of Ideal Energy, every civilization will face it, unless we stop developing and forever hide in the Safe Zone.

We are bound to be troubled by this.”

“Moreover, the civilizations left over from the Eighth Epoch can’t just be the Shu Mi Dam Civilization; there are bound to be many more alien races.”

“These Alien Civilizations will propagate this set of rules, a trend difficult to change.

We must prepare for this.”
