The giant Sun was in the sky and its light illuminated all nine levels of heaven and all 10 levels of hell.
However, it paled in comparison to one person.
Ling Xian sat in a lotus position on top of the highest peak of the dragon kind. His white robe fluttered in the wind and he was out of this world.
His demeanor was truly like that of an immortal or an emperor. He was above everyone else.
Especially at this moment, he was like a supreme immortal king, shining with boundless light. Even the Dragon King and the Supreme Divine Spear were overshadowed by him.
Everyone's gaze was fixated on Ling Xian. There was shock, respect, and fanaticism.
Ling Xian was far too heaven-defying. Especially for those who knew that he was a grandmaster of alchemy and arrays, they were at a point of no return.
"Senior, do you … accept apprentices?" A young man gathered up his courage. The way he looked at Ling Xian was full of admiration and hope.
"Senior, I also want to ask you to be my Master!"
"My dream is to climb to the peak of craftsmanship. Please accept me as your apprentice!"
Hearing what the young man said, everyone here chimed in, hoping to be Ling Xian's apprentice.
"Don't forget, he is a humankind!" An elder in black said angrily, "As a monster, how can I ask a humankind to be my Master?"
"So what he is a humankind? He is a grandmaster of crafts! "
"That's right. In the entire Planet Yao, you cannot find a second grandmaster of crafts. I don't want to miss this rare opportunity!"
"Even if he is a humankind, I am willing to accept him as my Master!"
The way they were looking at Ling Xian was the same way they were looking at a God.
This was not an exaggeration. In the eyes of those who practiced Tools Method, the Great Grandmaster was a god!
"You!" The elder in black was furious. But in the next second, his anger turned into fear.
This was because most of the craftsmen were glaring at him in anger. They looked like they were ready to attack at any moment.
The elder in black was merely of the eighth level. Even if he was of the ninth level, he wouldn't have the guts to continue.
"Sorry, I have no plans on accepting apprentices." Ling Xian smiled gently. He didn't even accept the man in black, why would he accept these people?
"Senior, please think about it."
The young man gritted his teeth and took out two divine stones, "Senior, these are my best treasures. Take them as a gift for me to take you as my apprentice."
Hearing this, those who wanted to worship Ling Xian all took out their treasures. At once, light shot through the cloud and made it hard for people to open their eyes.
"Take it back. I won't change my mind."
Ling Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. If he wanted to accept an apprentice, he wouldn't have asked for a formal gift.
"Sigh, it wasn't easy for me to meet a craftsmanship grandmaster, but I don't want to accept him as my disciple." The young man sighed, disappointment was written all over his face.
It was the same for those who practiced Tools Method.
Seeing this, Ling Xian thought about it and said, "Oh well, I will tell you what I learned. How much you can understand will depend on your luck."
As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of everyone in the Craft Method lit up. There were even quite a few people whose breathing quickened.
Although it was not an inheritance or a Cultivation Method, the comprehensions of a great grandmaster-level Martial Grandmaster were still priceless and extremely precious.
Especially to those who practiced the Craft Method, it was a once in a lifetime fortune.
"Quiet down." Ling Xian spoke softly. After the place quieted down, he began to speak about what he learned.
There were no rainbows falling from the sky and no golden lotuses bursting from the ground. However, all those who practiced the Craft Method fell into a trance and found it hard to extricate themselves.
It was far too mysterious. Like an immortal's technique, the sound of Dao enlightened these people and enlightened them.
Even though most of what Ling Xian said was something they couldn't understand, this was a grandmaster's enlightenment. Even if they could only understand one percent of it, it would be enough to benefit them for the rest of their lives.
"Alright, how much you can understand and how far you can go will depend on your luck."
Ling Xian softly smiled, making those who practiced the Craft Method extremely grateful. The way they looked at him was even more respectful.
To Ling Xian, enlightenment wasn't much. But to these people, this was a giant favor.
Therefore, everyone bowed down towards Ling Xian to show their appreciation.
"A humankind can make so many beasts feel so grateful. Unbelievable."
"This is what he deserves. Not everyone would share their enlightenment with the public."
"How heaven-defying. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe such a shocking person exists in this world."
The few leaders of the royal clans all chimed in and exclaimed.
"There is no need to be so polite." Ling Xian softly smiled and shifted his gaze towards the Dragon King.
At this, the Dragon King knew that he was asking about Mr. Ninth and couldn't help but to smile wryly.
"Hmm?"
Ling Xian frowned slightly and shifted his gaze towards everyone, "The weapon has been made. You can all leave now."
Hearing this, everyone left one after another. Only the leaders of the royal clans remained.
Before they came, they already knew of Ling Xian's plan. Therefore, they wanted to ask Mr. Ninth to help.
"Did Mr. Ninth agree?" Ling Xian shifted his gaze towards the Dragon King. The key to this battle was those who are close to the Craft Method. If Mr. Ninth agrees, then the Fiend Star has a chance of winning.
If he doesn't, then it will be troublesome.
"He wants to talk to you." The Dragon King looked at Ling Xian.
"Talk to me?" Ling Xian frowned, "Where is Mr. Ninth?"
"The back of the mountain. Follow me." The Dragon King placed the golden spear into his pouch and walked towards the back of the mountain.
Ling Xian followed closely behind.
The other leaders of the royal clans followed as well.
After some time, an elder dressed in grey appeared before Ling Xian.
This person had an ordinary appearance and an ordinary temperament. Anyone who sees him would associate him with a farmer. They would never think that he was the undefeatable person who was close to the Craft Method.
"Greetings, Mr. Ninth." The Dragon King politely bowed. The other leaders did the same.
Not only was Mr. Ninth one of the strongest people on the Fiend Star, he was also one of the most senior. Even the leaders of the seven royal clans had to bow to him.
At this, Ling Xian wanted to bow as well. However, Mr. Ninth stopped him.
"I am merely a master of crafts. I cannot afford to be bowed to by a grandmaster." Mr. Ninth looked at Ling Xian with a smile, full of admiration.
At this, the other leaders were a little jealous. When they bowed to him, Mr. Ninth accepted it. But when Ling Xian bowed to him, Mr. Ninth said he couldn't afford it.
This stark contrast naturally made them a little unhappy.
"Mr. Ninth, you are being too polite. Whether it's cultivation or seniority, you are above me." Ling Xian grinned.
"But in terms of crafts, I am not as good as you."
Mr. Ninth chuckled, "My current identity is that of a grandmaster of crafts. Before you, I should be the one bowing."
"That is too much for me." Ling Xian shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"I have been cultivating crafts for 1,500 years and I have yet to become a grandmaster. I cannot believe that you, at the age of 200, would become a grandmaster."
"Plus, you were able to craft a supreme weapon."
Mr. Ninth exclaimed, "The new generation truly surpasses the old."
"Mr. Ninth, you are flattering me. Let us get down to business."
Ling Xian wiped off his smile, "Though I do not know what the goal of the foreign lands is, I am certain that they are planning something big. We cannot let them do whatever they want."
