Chapter 530: Researching Magic Tools
Ou Yangming relaxed after Wu Yuanwei left.
He was rather anxious when he first set out to the capital, but he was no longer worried.
The real reason the imperial family and the inherited aristocratic families from the 8 counties were ready to jump at each other’s throats as though they were going to fight for life or death did not lie in this realm; it was due to the profit distribution in the upper realm.
Once the different forces in the upper realm compromised, the so-called contest in the lower realm would be a re joke.
Although those who wanted to gain authority and profits from the chaos would be disappointed, most ordinary people would continue to live peacefully and would not get involved in the endless war.
Multi-ard King Kong stopped after several days because one could see the capital’s walls from afar by standing on its shoulder.
Ou Yangming waved and got off the king kong with everyone else, then they walked toward the capital.
When they arrived outside the capital, countless people were seen pointing at the king kong and discussing it. In actuality, nurous news about the beast had already been spread in the capital while it was still on its way here. Nonetheless, as exaggerated as the rumors were, they could not beat how shocked the people were after seeing it in person.
Even though the king kong stopped long ago, its mountainous body still gave people lingering fears.
Ou Yangming was already used to this, hence he simply entered the city with his companions.
Even so, he was recognized as soon as he entered the city.
A young Yang Grade martial artist walked out from the crowd. He approached Ou Yangming and the rest and greeted them with a bow, “Greetings, Master Ou, I’m Wu Hanxin.”
Ou Yangming stopped and asked the stranger, “Do you know ?”
“I was lucky enough to have seen you once,” Wu Hanxin imdiately answered, then he continued after a pause, “I was ordered by the imperial family to wait at this entrance, and I’ve prepared carriages for you, so please board them.”
“Are you only waiting at this entrance, or soone’s arranged at every intersection?” Ou Yangming could not help but laugh.
“Every gate has soone on standby,” Wu Hanxin answered without any hesitation.
Given the imperial family’s status in this realm, the fact that they made such careful arrangents proved how much importance they attached to Ou Yangming.
Ou Yangming nodded and said, “Okay.”
Wu Hanxin quickly waved, and 3 carriages ca from not too far away. The carriages were luxurious, and they could not be used by ordinary people at all. Nevertheless, Ou Yangming did not bother about these trivial things anymore at this point.
He boarded one of the carriages and asked, “Where’s Old Man?”
It was a headless question, but Wu Hanxin understood him right away. He bowed and answered, “Old Man’s in Master Wu Hongxi’s residence now. He’s having a discussion with every Superior Blacksmith in the capital about breaking through the limit to smith magic tools.”
Ou Yangming was stunned. He initially thought it was only an excuse used by the imperial family to deceive Old Craftsman, but it turned out to be true.
It was worth noting that every Superior Blacksmith had a significant status, thus it would be difficult for even the imperial family to gather them.
“Bring there. As for the rest, please settle them down,” Ou Yangming expressed after so thought.
It was his decision, but even Ni Yinghong did not object to it though she hesitated for a split second.
Wu Hanxin was already told to fulfill Ou Yangming’s request no matter if they were reasonable or not. The order was sowhat embarrassing for the imperial family, but Wu Hanxin thought about the young fellow’s ritorious service throughout the Humans’ disaster and the frightening gigantic beast, which caused people to shudder with fear from afar, outside the city. As such, she did not think about disobeying the order at all.
With that, the carriages were split into 2 convoys, where one of them brought Ou Yangming alone to Wu Hongxi’s residence.
The mont the carriage arrived at the destination and Ou Yangming alighted from it, he was dumbfounded. Putting aside the fact that the door at Wu Hongxi’s residence was wide open, about 100 people were at the door. Judging from the looks on their faces, they seed to be waiting for the young fellow’s arrival on purpose.
“Greetings, Master Ou,” the front few people greeted and saluted him with respect from a distance away.
Ou Yangming smiled and responded, “Oh, my friends, sorry for being discourteous.”
Those people were Advanced Blacksmiths in the capital, and he had t each of them at least once.
Yuan Lexin went forward and bowed at the young fellow. “Master Ou, Master isn’t free now because he’s attempting a new smithing technique, so he can’t welco you here. Please excuse him.”
Ou Yangming chuckled. “Brother Yuan, you’re being too polite. Can I go in to take a look?”
“You have access to every place in the capital. Please...” Yuan Lexin instantly answered.
Seeing as Ou Yangming entered the forbidden area with a smile, Yuan Lexin lanted to himself. The young fellow was an ordinary person, who was not even an official blacksmith, when they first t, but their statues were Heaven and Earth apart now.
Yuan Lexin sighed at the change of fate.
When Ou Yangming entered a massive smithing workshop, he heard rapid breathings everywhere.
He was discreet when he entered, by which he also masked the sound of him opening the door. Everyone in the room was focusing on Wu Hongxin, who was at the center, so nobody noticed him at all.
Ou Yangming spotted Old Craftsman in the crowd at one glance.
There were not many people present as there were only 20 over people. Other than the few Superior Blacksmiths, the others were the greatest Advanced Blacksmiths in the capital, and they were acclaid as candidates most likely to beco Superior Blacksmiths.
Judging from how Yuan Lexin—Wu Hongxi’s second disciple—did not deserve to enter the workshop, the statuses of the people present were evident.
A fire flickered in Wu Hongxi’s hand at the mont, and he was slightly pale. Despite that, he fully focused on the fire as if it was the light of his life.
Ou Yangming was surprised when he stared at the fire.
This was because he realized that the fire carried more than just a person’s aura.
Yes, the fire contained the auras of at least 5 people. He was familiar with the 3 of them, which belonged to Wu Hongxi, Jin Shengjie, and Old Craftsman.
Odd looks could be seen on everyone’s faces. Ou Yangming was the only powerhouse in the world that could smith magic tools. In terms of result, the title of the greatest blacksmith in the world definitely belonged to him.
However, he never thought that the auras of different blacksmiths could be assimilated into a Military Fire.
‘What’s going on?’
Ou Yangming slowly understood from looking at the attentive crowd that it was only achievable because everyone in the workshop worked together.
He did not know if the thod could allow them to smith a magic tool, but the different approach truly opened his eyes. Two heads were better than one—the blacksmiths present could not refine magic tools on their own, but they cooperated and created a smithing secret technique, which was even marveled at by Ou Yangming.
“Boom...”
All of a sudden, the Military Fire in Wu Hongxi’s hand burst. Following that, the stubborn iron being burnt in the fire fell to the ground too.
“Ah...”
Sounds of pity were heard one after another, and the blacksmiths looked quite regretful.
“Gentlen, I touched the barrier just now!” That said, Wu Hongxi laughed out loud, and his voice was filled with excitent. “As long as I make a few more attempts, I’m sure I’ll break the barrier.”
Everyone else was struck dumb at first, but they were soon overjoyed, and they began to raise questions.
Being able to feel the barrier was a huge success. Before this, while they had been researching the way to smith magic tools, they never ca across the world’s barrier, let alone breaking through it.
Wu Hongxi did not keep any secrets; he described his experience in detail.
Through making confirmations and having discussions with each other, there was a fervent atmosphere in the smithing workshop. Ou Yangming even saw the cheerful look on Old Craftsman’s face.
At this mont, Ou Yangming suddenly understood sothing. When he previously entrusted Old Craftsman to the Ni family, it was true that the old man was given the best treatnt and all his wishes were granted. In spite of that, even if life was short for the old man, he could only live wonderfully by working on smithing tables. The Ni family never noticed this, but the imperial family sohow saw sothing, hence they went through a lot of trouble to invite Old Craftsman to the capital. As such, the old man could gather with Superior Blacksmiths and Advanced Blacksmiths to have discussions together.
Perhaps Old Craftsman was inferior in other aspects, but he was a blacksmith that fathod the integration of Heaven and man.
This point alone made him worthy of being ntioned on equal terms with Superior Blacksmiths.
Therefore, Old Craftsman was having a good ti here and was doing much better than Ou Yangming imagined.
After an unknown period, soone finally noticed Ou Yangming.
As exclaims were heard one after another, the unusually lively discussion in the room stopped. Apart from Old Craftsman, the other people were more or less embarrassed.
They had invited Old Craftsman to the capital to research the way to smith magic tools. Were they not displaying their slight skills in front of an expert by discussing the matter in front of Ou Yangming, who was the only one that could smith magic tools?
Ou Yangming nodded at everyone and approached Old Craftsman. “Old Man, I finally see you.”
Wu Hongxi looked around and laughed before he suggested, “It’s great that you’re finally united. Gentlen, let’s make so space to let them catch up.”
“Of course, let’s go out first.”
“Yes, yes.”
In the blink of an eye, everyone headed off in various directions, leaving Ou Yangming and Old Craftsman in the room.
