The one who spoke was a fat looking male cultivator. In Ning Cheng's opinion, this person was at least a Heaven's Mandate Cultivator.
The fat cultivator saw everyone looking at him and spoke to the red-haired man with disdain, "Do you know what kind of weapon is the best for a starry skies' cultivator? I guess you don't know, and even if you knew, you probably wouldn't tell the truth. Let me tell you now, for a starry skies' cultivator, the best weapon is not to ask others to refine it, nor to buy it, but to refine one's own weapon. "
Ning Cheng felt his heart move and stood to the side to listen. Ning Cheng's cultivation was low, and he was not a real Artefact-crafting Master. As such, he did not understand this sentence very well.
The fat cultivator saw that the people around him were paying attention to his words and raised his voice, "The weapon you refine would be connected to your heart and soul, which would increase the power of the same weapon by 30%. Furthermore, a magic treasure that is truly connected to the soul will allow you to gain an invisible advantage when fighting against an opponent. "
Speaking until here, he looked at the red-haired man again, "Wan Xin's weapon is not completely self-refined. The Devil Cloud Net is just an auxiliary weapon. If it were an offensive weapon, you would have to pay more. Now that he used a middle-grade Dao Artefact to compensate you with a high-grade Dao Artefact, it would not be too much for him to add some celestial coins. "
The fat cultivator's words were reasonable, but most of the cultivators present were not Artefact-crafting Masters, so they did not think of this point. Now that the fat cultivator mentioned it, everyone understood that it was the truth. Ning Cheng also had some doubts about whether it was the right decision to find an Artefact-crafting Master to help him refine a spear. What's more, his materials were heaven-defying. In case he met a black-hearted Artefact-crafting Master, it would be the end for him.
Seeing the red-faced cultivator's face turn green, the fat cultivator smiled and said, "It's just that many people are not Artefact-crafting Masters. Moreover, the path of Artefact-crafting takes a long time and requires talent and countless resources. Everyone has no choice but to ask others to help refine artefacts or buy them directly. Think about it, if you have top-grade Artefact-crafting materials and your cultivation is not high, would you be willing to take out your own materials for others to refine? Because of this, the weapons refined by oneself are especially precious. "
The people around him stood in the fat cultivator's position, and Ning Cheng also felt that the fat cultivator's words made sense. Because of this trivial matter, he changed his mind.
In the beginning, Elder Brother Cang Wei had asked him to enter the starry skies to find a top-notch Artefact-crafting Master to craft artefacts. That was because Cang Wei's cultivation had reached a high level. As such, most Artefact-crafting Masters would not dare to do anything to him. But he couldn't. His cultivation was too low. Cang Wei could look for an Artefact Crafting Master to help him craft an artefact; however, he had to craft an artefact himself.
Slowly clenching his fists, Ning Cheng decided to cultivate on one side, while at the same time he was crafting an artefact, he would have to refine his own Spear Type Artefact.
Seeing the plump cultivator walk out of the merchant house, Ning Cheng quickly followed. Before Ning Cheng could speak, the fat cultivator turned around and stared at Ning Cheng before speaking, "Little fellow, why are you following me?"
Ning Cheng quickly cupped his fists and spoke, "When this junior heard senior's words a moment ago, it was as if this junior was enlightened. Therefore, this junior wants to learn artifact forging because this junior's cultivation is low and his knowledge is limited. Senior has a unique understanding of blacksmithing, so I would like to ask for your guidance. "
The fat cultivator on hearing Ning Cheng's words couldn't help but stare at Ning Cheng with wide eyes. After a long while, he suddenly laughed and spoke, "After listening to my words, you want to learn Crafting Artefacts?"
"Yes." Ning Cheng knew what the other party was thinking. He most likely thought of him as an idiot. After hearing someone else's words, he immediately wanted to learn Crafting Artefacts. If he was not an idiot, then what was he?
"Good, good, you have a promising future. It really wasn't easy for you to cultivate to the Celestial Novice Realm. In the Eternal Heaven Starry Sky City, the most powerful Artefact-crafting Master is Zhongli Baichi. You can go find Zhongli Baichi. Haha, there really is such a person ….. "The fat cultivator laughed as he walked away.
Was it Zhongli Baichi or Zhongli Baichi? While Ning Cheng was still puzzled, the fat cultivator had already disappeared.
Ning Cheng had to return to the merchant house once again. This merchant house mainly sold artefacts, and the shop assistant here definitely knew who was the best at crafting artefacts.
"Friend, do you want to learn Crafting Artefacts?" When the shop assistant heard Ning Cheng's question, his first reaction was that Ning Cheng wanted to find an Artefact-crafting Master to help him craft artefacts. He felt that business had arrived and that he should introduce Ning Cheng to purchase artefacts.
Ning Cheng quickly spoke up, "No, I just want to inquire about the most powerful Artefact-crafting Master in our Eternal Heaven Starry Sky City."
The shop assistant laughed, "Everyone in the Grand Culmination Starry Sky knows that the most powerful Artefact-crafting Master here is Zhongli Baichi."
Was it really this person? Ning Cheng felt surprised that the fat cultivator did not lie to him.
"This senior must have very few disciples, right?" Ning Cheng carefully asked.
"Haha." The shop assistant laughed this time, "This senior has the most disciples. Moreover, he does not reject anyone who wants to take him as an apprentice. As long as you bring a gift to take him as an apprentice, he will accept it. However, the apprentice gift is not light. It is a Starry Sky Grade 9 Artefact-crafting Material. "
A mere Rank 9 Artefact-crafting Material could allow one to worship the most powerful Artefact-crafting Master here as an apprentice? Ning Cheng could not believe it.
"Since Senior Zhongli accepts disciples, doesn't that mean that Eternal Heaven Starry Sky City has many powerful Artefact-crafting Masters?" Ning Cheng subconsciously asked.
The shop assistant in the merchant house had nothing to do at the moment. When he heard Ning Cheng's words, he held back a smile and spoke, "He does have many disciples, but the most powerful disciple is an Artefact-crafting genius who studied under him for 70 years. This Artefact-crafting genius was able to craft low-grade Dao Artefacts at the age of 30, and then followed Zhongli Baichi to learn Artefact-crafting. Seventy years later, this Artefact-crafting genius left his master ….. "
"What's the current level of this disciple?" Ning Cheng asked eagerly.
The shop assistant gave another chuckle, "This Artefact-crafting genius can only craft low-grade Dao Artefacts. As for the other disciples, no matter how long they study under him, no matter what weapon they refine, they can only refine the same weapon when they come out. "
"Ah …." Ning Cheng looked at the shop assistant and spoke, "Is this Zhongli Baichi a liar?"
This time, the shop assistant spoke up with a straight face, "No, he specializes in crafting artefacts for powerhouses in the Heaven Seated Realm and above. No one has ever said that the weapons he refined were not good."
"Where does Senior Zhongli live?"
"He lives in the most prosperous Celestial Immortal Street in Eternal Heaven Starry Sky City ….."
… …
Ning Cheng hurriedly walked out of the merchant house. He wanted to see this Zhongli Baichi. Why did no disciple of such a powerful Artefact-crafting Master succeed? Moreover, Ning Cheng could also take out Rank 9 Artefact-crafting Materials. Most likely, this Zhongli Baichi did not teach any disciples after receiving the apprentice gift.
Ning Cheng had just walked out of the merchant house when he received a message from his communication pearl. The message came from Ziche Jun. Ziche Jun had asked him to meet at the Speed Celestial Rest Stop on Celestial Immortal Street.
Even if Ning Cheng did not go to Celestial Immortal Street, Ziche Jun had asked him to meet him. This fellow was just too mysterious, and he even knew some of his roots.
Celestial Immortal Street was not only spacious but also luxurious. That's right, it was indeed a luxurious street. The entire street was paved with Starry Sky Crystals, which exuded a rich starry sky Essence Qi. Moreover, because of the continuous supply of Starry Sky Essence Qi from Celestial Essence Spiritual Veins, the Essence Qi here would never dry up.
The first thing Ning Cheng saw when he arrived was not the Speed Celestial Rest Stop but Zhongli Baichi's Artefact-crafting Store. This Artefact-crafting Store looked luxurious and had a magnificent entrance. From time to time, some cultivators would come in and out.
"Brother Ning ….." Ziche Jun's voice arrived. Ning Cheng shook his head silently. No matter how he changed his appearance, he could even hide from Heaven Seated Powerhouses. However, he could not hide from this Ziche Jun.
"Brother Ziche." Ning Cheng's gaze swept to a small, inconspicuous pavilion not far away. The words' Speed Celestial Rest Stop 'were written above the pavilion.
"Brother Ning, please come in." Ziche Jun enthusiastically ushered Ning Cheng into a smaller booth and placed a restriction over it.
Ning Cheng cupped his fists and spoke, "Brother Ziche truly has some skills. No matter how I change my appearance, I can't hide it from you. If anyone had an enemy like Brother Ziche, they would never be able to eat or sleep in peace. "
Ziche Jun laughed, "Brother Ning, it's someone else. Brother Ning and I hit it off the moment we met. We are not enemies, but friends. When Brother Ning battled against Lou Pingchuan with a Celestial Novice Cultivation on the Dao Discussion Stage, I realised that Brother Ning was not an ordinary person. "
Ning Cheng showed a bitter smile and spoke, "You really do know that I killed Lou Pingchuan. I think that when I killed Lou Pingchuan, you should have been watching from the side, right?"
Ziche Jun showed a slight smile but did not answer. Apparently, he acquiesced to this matter.
"I don't know why Brother Ziche came looking for me this time." Ning Cheng did not mention anything about the Rootless Green Bamboo. Since Ziche Jun saw it from the side, then Ziche Jun definitely knew that he had obtained the Rootless Green Bamboo. Until now, he still did not know about the uses of the Rootless Green Bamboo. At least, he had to find out about the uses of the Rootless Green Bamboo before admitting to it.
Ziche Jun also did not mention the Rootless Green Bamboo. After pouring a cup of tea for Ning Cheng, he spoke up with a smile, "Brother Ning came here this time, presumably to enter the Immortal Jade Star."
"Immortal Jade Star?" Ning Cheng looked at Ziche Jun in doubt. This was the first time he had heard of this name. He really did not come here to enter the Immortal Jade Star, but to improve his cultivation and then obtain a top-grade flight-type weapon to return to the place he wanted to go.
"Did you not come here to participate in the Starry Sky Finals?" Ziche Jun also felt puzzled. He had always thought that Ning Cheng was the same as him, working hard to participate in the Starry Sky Finals of the Celestial Scryer Geniuses.
Ning Cheng gave out a sigh and spoke, "Even if I wanted to participate, I don't have a spot. I heard that the Striking Order Starry Skies only has ten spots. No matter how it is distributed, it would never reach my head. "
Ziche Jun shook his head and spoke, "Because of Lou Pingchuan's death, the Striking Order Starry Skies has one more spot. If you want it, you can still get it. However, there are still a hundred spots in the finals that will be auctioned off in the Eternal Heaven Starry Sky City. With your net worth, if you want to go, you can still buy one. "
Ning Cheng remained silent. He understood the meaning behind Ziche Jun's words. Since he had obtained so many things, he should be able to exchange them for a spot. However, Ning Cheng did not want to participate in the finals. No matter how many rewards there were, he would never get what he wanted.
