Chapter 829: Chapter 309: Sword Casting Manor, Becoming a Small Celestial Destiny World

"We can do this!"

Ning Zheng’s heart burned with excitement as he confirmed the feasibility of this idea.

By utilizing the rising blacksmiths who were barely usable, we might get a 50% discount, or even more.

Buying directly is too much of a loss.

Perhaps, the "Wait and See" group will be back online.

As we all know,

many auxiliary professions rely on luck quite a bit.

A good blacksmith, when in the right state of mind and inspired, can perform extraordinarily and forge a Supreme Divine Soldier.

Spirit Farmers cultivating a Mutated Spirit Root also rely on luck for their livelihood.

"That being said, in the Celestial Destiny World next door, where everyone is a protagonist, it’s probably a paradise for auxiliary professionals!"

"This Destiny path may not be as good as Soul and Flesh paths in direct combat, but it’s an all-purpose auxiliary route."

"We can have the Night Emperor from across the way study some Qi Fortune-themed blacksmith techniques and Spirit Farmer techniques for use by our Manor’s blacksmiths."

Evidently,

the other side must have thought of this, but they are simply too busy to have the time.

In the great systems of the Nine-State, the Daoists, Divination, and Blessing... the main professions are already overwhelmed, how could they have time to study new-era auxiliary professions?

Moreover,

they’re busy building National Guardian Divine Artifacts, who has time for these kinds of things?

The whole world over there is stretched to the breaking point, like a civilization’s war chariot that can’t stop, speeding ahead, preparing for war.

They can’t stop now, and only two roads lie ahead for them.

1. The high-speed civilization chariot that crashes and kills the Immortal.

2. Being struck down by the Immortal, ending in total destruction.

However, despite being busy, if Ning Zheng were to speak, believing that the Night Emperor would order some departments in that world’s Court to spare some effort and research the basic cultivation techniques in this area.

This advantage shouldn’t be wasted.

Our Manor growing stronger can only help them faster, right?

The most it would delay their entire Dynasty is ten years, which translates to just a few hours.

But Ning Zheng obtained the Qi Fortune Techniques for blacksmithing and Spirit Farming, which can greatly enhance our ability to send them Golden Mud, even updating the version of the Golden Mud!

Golden Mud is, after all, the cultivation keystone of that world.

"In a matter of a few hours, I believe he won’t refuse."

Ning Zheng watched the Night Emperor, a thousand years in the Celestial Destiny Era, even having married and had children, silently setting his sights on him.

Ning Zheng entered the steward’s room and summoned Jiucai Rong, immediately saying:

"Write a letter to the neighbor, asking the Night Emperor to research Qi Fortune Blacksmith, Qi Fortune Spirit Farmer, and Qi Fortune Embroideress professions for our Manor’s blacksmiths to use."

"Got it!"

Jiucai Rong’s eyes lit up as he stood up from the desk and enthusiastically said, "I’ve been thinking the same thing! We’ve been wanting to get stronger for a long time!"

Previously, the Qi Fortune Coins they collected were only a pittance, just add-ons.

Now, with a surge, they enjoyed the treatment of a lucky protagonist.

As common sense dictates, when you make money, you have to spend it.

But you have to figure out how to spend it!

Using a unique Qi Fortune Technique to achieve higher efficiency and prudent budgeting is the true way.

Jiucai Rong, a bit excited, explained:

"I’ll take care of this. Learning some techniques from the lucky-type blacksmith is nice since we’re becoming relaxed again now."

"Interestingly enough, after many of our blacksmiths worked to death, we immediately relaxed...leaving behind replicas to maintain the logic before we worked to death, crazily working overtime on the assembly line."

"We even started learning the Seven Great Cultivation Professions from next door out of boredom."

"Oh?" Ning Zheng asked curiously.

"Aren’t we exchanging letters with them every day? We’ve also obtained their cultivation techniques."

"The Mask can be ever-changing, able to transform into any system. By replicating their Golden Mud Spiritual Root, we can follow their cultivation paths - Feng Shui, Daoist, and Blessing..."

"Although the replicas only have half the original Divine Techniques, we don’t mind."

Jiucai Rong said, "These are the three main things we’re learning right now."

"The Daoists are learning to practice Corpse Refinement, draw talismans...which requires some accumulation and dealing with corpses. We used to throw our corpses into the Forging Furnace to be fried and used as weapons, and this has altered our ancestral grave model to some extent."

"In the future, not only will we create our own Embers and corpse weapons through suicide, but we will also refine our own corpses, emphasizing self-reliance."

Ning Zheng glanced at him.

A true case of being self-sufficient.

No need to follow the Nine-State natives relying on ancestors, we rely on ourselves!

We don’t rely on ancestors, we rely on ourselves, refining our own Embers, and refining our own corpses, emphasizing self-reliance.

Ning Zheng nodded, "I’ve already felt from you that golden dream of self-reliance and self-strengthening you speak of."

Jiucai Rong shyly scratched his head, "You’ve flattered us, sir. We’re simply striving for self-sufficiency."

"Daoist Corpse Refinement aside, another profession, Blessing Master, is also a popular profession we are discussing for the future."

He spoke vividly,

"In our hometown, this technique is called buffing, and it’s very useful. Our blacksmiths are especially fond of it."

"Nowadays, a lot of people are learning it, primarily the [Enlightenment Buff]. Though expensive, it’s incredibly useful!"

He continued to introduce.

Given their level, they are not yet real Blessing Masters and can only manage temporary buffs.

But that’s already quite good.

The so-called permanent buff of the neighboring birth blessing isn’t eternal either; it just lasts longer and can be sustained to adulthood.

By adulthood, that child would have risen on their own and wouldn’t need such power anymore.

Ning Zheng followed Jiucai Rong to the bustling and sectioned blacksmith workshops, and opened the Eye of Identification.

DuangDuang!

Heat billowed as blacksmiths forged iron.

[Name: Daojiu]

[Gender: Male]

[Cultivation: Three Elements Realm, Qi Realm.]

[Status: Enlightenment Buff (Qi Fortune Enhancement, 21 minutes remaining, insight increased by 20%) Focus Buff (Special Soul Demon Pill, 31 minutes remaining, enhances focus)]

This was the updated data on the Eye of Identification, now capable of observing changes in Qi Fortune Value.

This Eye of Identification can only operate independently within the Sword Casting Manor, with its own independent server: Nine Chapters of Zhuang Ling.

Outside, such structures are not yet available and most people do not cultivate Qi Fortune, so naturally, they can’t see the changes in Qi Fortune.

As for the soul-focused buff?

That doesn’t come from Qi Fortune enhancement but from soul path enhancement.

It is a type of demon pill acting upon the soul, which blacksmiths have long been using. The side effect is reduced lifespan, but they don’t care.

Of course.

It’s worth mentioning that they also used Blood Boiling Pills when moving bricks for work, produced by the medical hall, which also reduces lifespan.

This belongs to the enhancement of the blood and flesh lineage.

In fact, every profession in the manor has been using potions for work, facing the risk of sudden death while working.

Both the traditional soul path and the traditional physical body have their own buff enhancement techniques.

But the Qi Fortune path is rather special, its enhancements are somewhat more mysterious.

"Well done."

Ning Zheng continuously used the Eye of Identification to appraise several blacksmiths.

"Now, under the Enlightenment Buff, every profession is rapidly growing."

Jiucai Rong said, "Sir, soon we will see super talents in each profession! We call this state... Overdrive! Super Brain Frequency Mode!"

Ning Zheng nodded, naturally understanding their need for praise: "Very good, very commendable."

In the few days of slacking, the blacksmiths had come up with something remarkable for him, quite impressive.

Probably because he had been browsing the forum less recently.

The forum had long been researching and discussing such buffs and the roles of various Daoists, Diviners, and other professions.

Next door is the Celestial Destiny World.

Now, isn’t our Sword Casting Manor also a small Celestial Destiny World?

We should naturally have our seven professions too.

We are the origin of the Golden Mud.

The blacksmiths are inherently great at copying, frantically replicating, and this time it’s clear they’re planning to crown the Night Emperor with a cap.

A bit mischievous.

But Ning Zheng liked it.

The practicality of this system for the Sword Casting Manor is simply: the Nine-State offspring cultivator digs ancestral graves, digs and digs.

"Of course, we also have the Feng Shui Master profession, which is being researched."

"We have already devised a practice room with Feng Shui and Destiny enhancements, allowing blacksmiths to cultivate faster inside."

Jiucai Rong boasted proudly,

"Every entry into it costs 50 points for a low-level practice room, 500 Qi Fortune for a mid-level, and the advanced room hasn’t been built yet..."

"After all, we Feng Shui Masters need a commission for creating these Qi Fortune Array Maps!"

While speaking, he led Ning Zheng to a newly established venue within the manor.

[Training Room]

It was also a tall building. No doubt, every professional area in the manor had been revamped into towers, buildings, and ancient-style palaces.

Ning Zheng entered and gave a cursory glance.

The so-called low-level training room was just a hall without private rooms.

On each meditation platform, blacksmiths sat at nodes for training, their heads shrouded in mist, with calming incense burning.

Admittedly, a lot of blacksmiths came here to train.

Their original Masked Spirit Root, replicating idols, already allowed them to progress swiftly.

Coupled with the Blessed Land rich in Qi Fortune and the previously crafted auxiliary immortal artifacts, their speed had jumped to another level!

Now, over three hundred people in the manor have broken through to the Three Elements Realm, with the rest in the Four Viscera Realm.

Of course, regarding the Two-Phase Realm, currently, the manor has only one possessed Meiling Fish Food God.

But the number of cultivators who are mid-level powerhouses in the manor is enough to rival some small Holy Land sects, which is quite impressive.
