Chapter 0353: Exceeding the Full Score, a Prophecy Comes True
Today's first update: Chapter 353!
I'm late. I went to see a lawyer during the day and took care of some family matters. I'm going to send green master's letters to the black fans!
I looked at the monthly tickets, 1836-1407=429, which means I need to add four more updates. Today is a time issue, so I will guarantee four updates. Tomorrow, no matter how many more monthly tickets there are, I will make up for them all, and continue until the end of this month!
I'm not in a hurry, but I guess the little dogs have been squeezed dry by me~ Hahaha!
...
Forge masters are generally more straightforward. One is one, and two is two!
They will express their various joys, sorrows, anger, and happiness from the heart. There are very few people who have twists and turns in their hearts and have eight hundred holes!
Because the more complicated a person's mind is, the less suitable he is for casting!
People who are good at calculating can't calm down. They swing the casting hammer day and night, day and night, and forge pieces of metal into shape!
Sky Eye: (???_??) Who are you being weird about here?
Dog Author: (??ω??) Let's talk about the little dogs~
As disciples of the Sword Pond Holy Land, their virtues are naturally tested by time!
As these casters with high status in the eyes of the outside world, they are actually not as unpopular as people imagine. What they love is nothing more than casting and people who are good at casting!
"The Qingquan Sword is a sword pattern made by our master, Master Ou Yezi, and Master Gan Jiang, based on the artifact Longyuan. This sword is an equipment that everyone in my Sword Pond Holy Land must learn and cast with care!"
The head caster, his hair is already gray, and his body is a little hunched. Only the thick calluses on the joints of his palms and his piercing eyes prove his past glory!
Standing next to him, Brother Hao, whom Xu Kun knew, introduced him: "This is our second senior brother Cai Lun from the Sword Pond Holy Land. He is now 120 years old. He was attacked by the backlash for failing to forge a divine weapon and injured his origin. He has not been able to forge in recent years, but in terms of vision, he is one of the best among our brothers!"
Xu Kun was shocked. Being able to try to forge a divine weapon proved that this second senior brother Cai Lun was already an S-level casting master before his origin was injured!
Faced with such an old senior, Xu Kun did not dare to be rude and immediately bowed and said: "Xu Kun, meet Master Cai!"
Cai Lun waved his hand and straightened Xu Kun: "In front of you, I am not worthy of the word master. I am just a dying withered man. Thanks to my teacher for not abandoning me, I can rely on my age in this Sword Pond Holy Land!"
From his trembling hands holding Xu Kun, it can be judged that this original casting master, as he said, has reached the end of his life!
In this era when all races are climbing the Haotian Tower, as long as you can climb up step by step, let alone a hundred years old, even a thousand years old, you will not necessarily age!
Below the War King level, the origin of life has not been transformed, and the life span is the same as that of normal people, and it will come to an end at about a hundred years old, but above the War King level, every time a shackle is broken, the life span will be unprecedentedly improved!
After entering the Saint level, as long as the origin does not dissipate and does not die midway, you can enjoy a life span of 500 years!
So in today's world, seniority by age is not very meaningful. There is no order of hearing the truth, and the one who has achieved it is the teacher. Ambition is not old, and no ambition is a hundred years of life!
Think of Cang Shen, the first generation of the human race, who debuted for more than 900 years and is still in his prime. His uncle Yang is also the same. According to age, he may be above this Master Cai, but his heroic appearance does not have the old look of a centenarian!
Cai Lun held Xu Kun's arm tightly with his trembling hands, and said excitedly: "God has mercy on me, and I can see a genius like you who has extraordinary talent in casting before I close my eyes. This wish of my life is enough!"
"Your talent deserves my respect!"
He was about to salute again, but Xu Kun hurriedly supported him: "No, absolutely not!"
Cai Lun, who was supported by Xu Kun, sighed: "You don't know, Qingquan Sword is an equipment that we, as disciples of the Sword Pond Holy Land, must try to forge when we step from C-level casting to B-level casting!"
"Master once said that the Qingquan Sword was imitated from the Divine Sword Longyuan. Its craftsmanship is so complicated that even those who master B-level casting can't forge it. , and few can successfully forge it! "
"We can successfully forge the Qingquan Sword before entering the B-level, which will be of great benefit to our future path!"
Lei Huan nodded and echoed: "Yes, what the second brother said is exactly what all of us disciples of the Sword Pond Holy Land think. The master's pure heart makes us suffer first and then enjoy, so that we can understand the difficulty of casting and the difficulty of advancement!"
After speaking, Lei Huan held the folding fan that he never left with both hands, and bowed to Xu Kun and said: "Xu Kun, my previous recklessness was not intentional, please don't blame me!"
"This is my seventh junior brother, Lei Huan, who neglected casting and is now only an A-level caster!" Cai Lun whispered, but he was also quite dissatisfied with the achievements of his seventh junior brother!
Xu Kun smiled back, nodded, and said generously: "Master Lei, what are you talking about? I have come all this way and finally understood the intention of the Sword Pond Holy Land. Master Lei's previous blocking of the road was to test my virtue. How can you blame me!"
"Haha, that's good. I was afraid that you would trouble me later!" Lei Huan laughed.
If you only look at his appearance, it is hard to associate Lei Huan, who is dressed in silk and holding a folding fan, with the profession of a foundry master!
Compared to Chi, the young master of Sword Pool Holy Land, he is more like a cynical second generation ancestor!
It is estimated that the slight dissatisfaction in Cai Lun's words just now corresponds to the fact that Lei Huan did not devote himself wholeheartedly to the study of casting techniques, thus humiliating the master!
But this may also be the reason why the owner of the Sword Pool Holy Land arranged for Lei Huan to receive him. After all, with his appearance, it is really difficult to associate him with a good person as long as he looks a bit arrogant!
"Grandmaster Cai just said that when the disciples of Jianchi Holy Land reach C-level perfection in their casting skills, they will choose the Qingquan Sword with complex casting techniques to advance their casting skills?" Xu Kun asked curiously.
You probably have understood the reason why these people respect me so much!
"Exactly, and this is also the iron law of our Sword Pond Holy Land. When the proficiency of C-level casting is perfected, Master will prohibit us from trying to create any other B-level equipment!"
This is easy to understand. First of all, as these forgers said, the Qingquan Sword, which is an imitation of the Divine Sword Long Yuan, is complex in craftsmanship. If it can be successfully crafted with C-level casting skills, it will be even more beneficial after entering B-level!
After all, first the bitterness and then the sweetness will lead to a smooth road in life!
Secondly, the Holy Land of Sword Pond is famous for its Sword Pond, and the name of Sword Pond is because Gan Jiang and Mo Xie successfully forged two divine swords!
The ultimate long-cherished wish of all the forgers who become disciples of Sword Pond Holy Land is to inherit the mantle of Sword Pond Holy Land and carry forward the sword-making skills of Sword Pond Holy Land!
To create a representative sword at an important turning point in life is, in layman’s terms, called corporate culture. In this case, it is to test the compatibility between a forger and the inheritance of the Sword Pond Holy Land!
Although the Qingquan Sword is complex in craftsmanship, no one dares to say that this sword is the most difficult sword to cast at the B-level stage. After all, in order to take care of Xu Kun's level, the Qingquan Sword is just a B-level sword used at level 10. That’s it!
In addition to the level of equipment casting, the difficulty of equipment casting is also crucial!
The equipment that a caster can create cannot exceed its own level!
Rather than saying that it is difficult to make the Qingquan Sword, it is better to say that the Sword Pond Holy Land needs excellent forgers who can make the Qingquan Sword, no, swordsmiths!
For a master craftsman who is good at forging swords, he is naturally more interested in a forger who is good at forging swords!
While Xu Kun was thinking in his mind, Cai Lun continued: "As far as our Sword Pool Holy Land is concerned, no matter how excellent your casting talent is, when you first enter the mountain gate, you are not considered my master's disciple!"
"Only after the casting technique has been upgraded to level B, the master will personally start the apprenticeship ceremony!"
"Therefore, making the Qingquan Sword has become an apprenticeship test for each of our forgers who join the Sword Pool Holy Land!"
"Everyone has ten opportunities to cast it. Although Master has not stated it clearly, the quality of the Qingquan Sword you create when you advance will be your final result!"
"Although this final result does not affect Master's fair teaching to each of us, we have also discovered a pattern among generations of disciples!"
"What's the pattern?" Xu Kun asked curiously.
"When you advance your casting skills to B level, the higher the quality of the Qingquan sword you make, the more skills you will learn from the master. This is not a favoritism of the master, but of you and the Sword Pond Holy Land Casting The compatibility between craftsmanship and various sword-making diagrams!”
And this statement!
It seems that the blueprint of the Qingquan Sword is not just a B-level crafting blueprint. It is a copy of the blueprint that combines the efforts of two master craftsmen. In addition to being used for practicing, it also represents the sword pool. A ticket to the art of casting in the Holy Land!
"For example, there are some extremely talented casters who are excellent in all aspects. They even successfully created B-level equipment early before they had perfected their C-level casting skills. But when it comes to making the Qingquan Sword, When I was there, I was in trouble!”
"Many geniuses were sent out of the mountain gate by their master just because they failed to forge the Qingquan Sword ten times. The reason for them was that they were not suitable to study in the Holy Land of Sword Pond!"
Being able to successfully create B-level equipment while using C-level casting skills is naturally regarded as a genius in casting. However, because they do not meet the enrollment requirements of Sword Pool Holy Land, no matter how talented you are, you will not be able to be mastered by the master craftsmen. Go-getters come under your wing!
This is not to say that generals are too proud of themselves, but rather that they must not delay such a casting genius who is not suitable for making swords but is suitable for casting other types of equipment!
Then, a smile appeared on Cai Lun's wrinkled cheeks: "So, do you understand what I mean?"
"If we say, according to quality, perfect quality counts as 100 points, excellent quality counts as 80 points, excellent quality counts as 60 points, rough quality counts as 40 points, and poor quality counts as 20 points, then your Grade A The inferior Qingquan Sword has exceeded the perfect score!”
"This unprecedented good result has surpassed the only good result achieved by our senior brother with the perfect quality Qingquan Sword!"
The only... time?
Xu Kun was a little surprised. Is it possible that the senior brother was more talented than Chi and the foundry master Cai Lun in front of him who had tried to build artifacts?
Noticing Xu Kun's surprised gaze, Cai Lun said with a smile: "I am not talented, but I managed to create a high-quality Qingquan Sword back then. I still remember what my master said to me after seeing it!"
"If you choose to become a disciple in the Sword Pond Holy Land, you will be able to barely reach the level of a master craftsman if you are lucky, but you will only be able to reach the level of a master if you are unlucky!"
Xu Kun was shocked, and his words came true. Gan Jiang's words perfectly reflected the reality that Cai Lun failed to forge a divine weapon and was backfired!
Maybe Cai Lun didn't want to succumb to fate, so he made that crazy move!
After being shocked, Xu Kun looked at Chi curiously!
Now Chi has lost his edge. After noticing Xu Kun's gaze, he lowered his head embarrassedly: "I... I only made a high-quality Qingquan Sword at that time!"
Yo yo yo, I thought you were awesome, but it turns out that you are just a little jerk!
