Zhou Kui had been blacksmithing for a month. His muscles had turned bronze from the heat of the fire. They glistened under his sweat. ←,
Zhou Kui hammered a thousand times before stopping to catch his breath.
The people in the smithy all stopped in twos and threes. They wiped their sweat, drank some water, or ate some fierce beast relics.
After all, blacksmithing consumed a lot of energy.
"Damn, I've finally hammered out a good piece of steel."
Zhou Kui looked at the bright red steel on the anvil and was very satisfied.
"Ha, Brother Kui, your Hurricane Hammer Technique is getting better!"
A member of the Xuanwu Army said with a laugh.
"It's alright."
Zhou Kui shook his head. This Hurricane Hammer Technique was a hammer technique provided by the Blacksmith Office for free. It did not have any attack power, but it could be used for blacksmithing. It allowed the cultivator to perfectly control every inch of their muscles, so as to achieve the best training results.
Although this hammer technique was free, Zhou Kui knew that if he could cultivate it to the extreme, it would be very terrifying.
Eighteen thousand years ago, there was a ruthless man who used this Gale Hammer Technique to break the record of the Blacksmithing Odd-Job Office.
In 60 days, he hammered all sorts of fine steel and iron, which was worth a total of 48,000 dragon scale runes!
What did 48,000 dragon scale runes mean? Zhou Kui did not know in the beginning. When he first came to the Blacksmith Office, he was full of ambition. He thought that although he could not break the record, he could still amaze the world. If others hammered 48,000 dragon scale runes, it would not be difficult for him to get 20,000 to 30,000 dragon scale runes.
In the end, after a few days. Zhou Kui was dumbfounded!
In the first three days, Zhou Kui used all his strength. He did not earn more than 25 dragon scale runes a day!
From the fourth day onwards, Zhou Kui finally mastered the Hurricane Hammer Technique. The dragon scale runes he earned rose to above 30, followed by 40 to 50.
Until now, Zhou Kui's best day was only 52 dragon scale runes.
But what about the ruthless person who left the record?
48,000 dragon scale runes in two months, an average of 800 a day!
Zhou Kui was on the verge of tears. He had risked his life to earn dragon scale runes, but the most he earned on a day was only a tenth of that person's. How was this possible?
"Brother Kui. Are you thinking about the record left behind by that ruthless person again? If I had to say, that fellow might have the bloodline of a desolate beast. He was definitely not a normal person. Either that, or the standards of 18,000 years ago were different from what we have now. Earning dragon scale runes back then would have been much easier! Earning 48,000 yuan in 60 days? I can't believe it! "
A member of the Xuanwu Army said stubbornly.
However, at this moment, a young blacksmith who was resting nearby interrupted, "You underestimate the heroes of the world! Just a few days ago, someone in our Tai Ah Divine City earned more than 10,000 dragon scale runes a month picking herbs. There were even Glory Points! In that case, 18,000 years ago, there was someone who forged iron for two months and earned 48,000. What's so impossible about that? "
The youth's words stunned Zhou Kui and the rest. However, a few people laughed. "How can picking herbs earn 10,000 dragon scale runes a month? Don't brag."
Zhou Kui and the rest did not believe him at all. The youth said disdainfully, "You guys still don't know about this? I heard it from a few expert friends who live in the Central Divine Tower. It was absolutely true! That herb-picking cultivator received such a high reward because he picked a primordial herb! He was even specially summoned by the Divine City's Elder! "
"Picked a primordial herb?" Zhou Kui gave a "don't tease me" expression. "Your joke is too lame! And you call it a primordial herb? Is that something we can pick? And what do you mean by being summoned by the Divine City's Elder? The Elder is a sage. Is a sage an existence we can come into contact with … Eh!? "
Zhou Kui's voice suddenly choked when he said this. He was completely dumbfounded.
He looked at his lackeys, only to see that they were already looking at him with an extremely strange expression.
In fact, among the few of them, Zhou Kui was the last to react.
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked at the youth who had just spoken. He stammered, "You … just said … you were … summoned by the Elder?"
"Yes, it happened yesterday! A friend in the Central Divine Tower told me personally. How can it be wrong? "The youth said lightly.
Zhou Kui and company stared at each other. Picking herbs, being summoned by the Elder …
They had already guessed who the person who picked the primordial herb was.
"It can't be! Yi Yun, he … picked a primordial herb!? "
"What a joke!"
Zhou Kui and his lackeys reacted violently. One of them jumped up from a stone stool and jumped three feet high.
They had only seen the law-enforcers bring Yi Yun to see the Elder, but they did not know the reason.
Only today did they know that he had picked a primordial herb.
But … how could this be possible!?
How could a Purple Blood realm warrior pick a herb of that level?
"Oh? That youth is called Yi Yun? "At this moment, another youth who was forging stood up." Do you know him? "
"Oh?" Seeing the youth who suddenly stood up, Zhou Kui was stunned. He had a deep impression of this youth.
This person was not tall, and he looked thin, but he could forge more than a hundred dragon scale runes a day!
Of course, he was not a rookie. He had already been in the Divine wilderness training camp for a year, and as a second year soldier.
As a first year recruit, Zhou Kui had a faint sense of reverence towards these veterans.
This was a result of his strength.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Ah Jun. Our Hongdao Association's President has heard of this youth and is very interested in him. He wants to recruit him into our association."
Hongdao Association!
Zhou Kui had heard of this small group.
Many of the people in the smithy were from the Hongdao Association!
The Hongdao Association's President was named Li Hong. He was ranked 1030th on the Heaven roll of honor, and ranked 111st on the Earth roll of honor.
This ranking sounded bad, but Li Hong had only entered the Divine wilderness camp last year.
Including this month, Li Hong had only been in the Divine wilderness camp for a year and a month. It was very terrifying for him to be ranked 1030th!
After all, it was rare for a person to enter the top 1000 of the Heaven and Earth roll in their first year. It was enough to shock the Extraordinary geniuses of the Divine Kingdom's large factions.
Li Hong was only a little bit away from this step.
Li Hong was a very ambitious person. The Hongdao Association he established only accepted people who had been in the Divine wilderness camp for less than a year.
The Hongdao Association was not considered strong now, but with the passage of time, once Li Hong and company cultivated for 3-4 years in the Tai Ah Divine City, they would become veteran cultivators. Then, this group would become one of the top groups in the Tai Ah Divine City!
Now, many of the best second year and first year recruits had been recruited by the Hongdao Association.
Unexpectedly, they had taken a fancy to Yi Yun.
Zhou Kui felt upset. He had been forging with the people from the Hongdao Association for a month, but they did not even look at him.
And this time, they finally paid attention to him, but it was to find Yi Yun!
Zhou Kui was unhappy, but he did not dare to go against the wishes of the Hongdao Association. If he offended a large association in the Tai Ah Divine City for the next 4-5 years, his days would be miserable.
"Alright … He went picking herbs in the day, so he should be around at night. I know where he lives …"
Zhou Kui said reluctantly, but his heart felt like he had swallowed a fly.
Comparing oneself to others was infuriating.
"Ha, thanks!"
The youth named Ah Jun grinned. Not only did the Hongdao Association want Yi Yun to join them, they also had important matters to discuss.
…
In the evening, the Sun was setting in the west. The majestic Tai Ah Divine City was illuminated by the sunset, giving it a reddish-gold luster.
At this time, in the Tai Ah Divine City's low-class dining hall, cultivators came from all over to get their own bowls of rice to eat.
The food provided by the Tai Ah Divine City was not bad. Desolate beast meat was enough to fill one's stomach.
The senior cultivators in the Tai Ah Divine City would hunt desolate beasts in the Divine wilderness every day and exchange them for dragon scale runes. The most precious materials, such as the beast bones, were taken away to be processed. The less valuable beast meat was distributed and made into food.
In the Cloud Wilderness tribes, there were only a few pieces of desolate beast meat. In the Tai Ah Divine City, it was the lowest grade ingredient.
The Tai Ah Divine City's dining hall's pot for cooking desolate beast meat was very particular. It was a treasure called the Tai He Treasure Cauldron!
And the chef who controlled the Tai He Treasure Cauldron was a rare human lord who had a special love for delicacies.
This Tai He Treasure Cauldron was the human lord's intrinsic treasure.
The Tai He Treasure Cauldron had a universe within it. It could store a small mountain of ingredients. Even ordinary pork, beef, or mutton would become a delicacy after being cooked by the chef using the Tai He Treasure Cauldron. And the cooked meat would be smooth and delicious. It would also be infused with Heaven Earth Yuan Qi. If mortals ate it often, it could prolong their lives.
Furthermore, the food used in the Tai Ah Divine City was not pig, cow, or mutton, but desolate beast meat. So although it was low-class food, it was not low-class at all!
The first time Yi Yun came to the Tai Ah Divine City's dining hall, he had a great time eating.
Although at his level, he could absorb bone relics to replace eating, Yi Yun still had to come to the dining hall from time to time to gorge himself.
Eating fierce beast relics every day had made his mouth bland.
As he practiced the Elephant Swallowing Technique, Yi Yun's appetite was surprisingly good. He could eat a large basin of desolate beast meat, a few plates of stir-fried spirit vegetables and a pot of beast bone soup. It was a very satisfying feeling.
Today, Yi Yun returned to his residence early, so he could not avoid having a big meal.
As Yi Yun was biting into a large piece of meat, he suddenly saw a group of people walk into the dining hall from the corner of his eye.
This group of people were clearly not here to eat. They looked around the dining hall and soon found their target. They walked towards Yi Yun with a smile.
"Oh? They are looking for me? "
Yi Yun was slightly surprised. He continued biting into his meat. He noticed that the person leading the group was Zhou Kui.
Zhou Kui was following behind a slightly plump youth. He seemed to be afraid of the youth.
The plump youth was fair and clean, with curly hair. He was carrying a young lady in one arm. That young lady looked like a cultivator from the Divine wilderness training camp.
"Oh? He is Yi Yun? "The plump youth asked Zhou Kui.
Zhou Kui nodded, "Yes, the person you are looking for is him!"
