Wei Shan looked at his agitated student in front of him. He could understand the latter's feelings. He also had the same thoughts. He also felt that Heavenly Secret's Creations needed the power of the upper levels. He had always done so.
However, ever since the last incident, he had become very vigilant. He was afraid that someone would use his thoughts to do something that was beyond what Heavenly Secret's Creations could handle.
After obtaining the upper level Creation's shell, he felt that what he should do now was to settle down, and not rush forward. Now, he had to pull back the reins. He was afraid that if he did not stop it, Heavenly Secret's Creations would just rush out like this. If that happened, no one would be able to control the situation.
He was not in a hurry to appease his student. Instead, he said, "I just happen to want to see He Chang. Wait here and hear what he has to say."
"Yes!"
The middle-aged man could not help but feel excited. This was because He Chang was a Xuanxiu who was loyal to the Tenki-in Hall. Currently, in that layer, his status was already the highest compared to the other Tenki-in Hall's Xuanxiu. Every three months, he would come to the Tenki-in Hall to report his progress.
The two of them did not wait for long. As the hall's door was pushed open, a Xuanxiu walked in. He bowed to Wei Shan, and said, "Greetings, Grandmaster."
Wei Shan said, "He Chang, have you found anything recently?"
He Chang said respectfully, "Grandmaster, the recent records are all here." He held out his hands, and presented a jade tablet.
Wei Shan gestured, and the middle-aged man hurried forward to receive it. He stretched out his hand to stroke it, and densely packed words and diagrams appeared on it. There were also various creation skills attached to it. However, after he finished reading it, he was disappointed. He said, "You still haven't found the skills of the Creator Alchemists?"
He Chang looked at Wei Shan, and said shamefully, "Your subordinate is incompetent. Almost all the advanced creation techniques in that layer are in the hands of the upper levels of the Hao Clan. Your subordinate is only in charge of one creation factory, and can only arrange some miscellaneous tasks. The Hao Clan strictly guards the upper level techniques. Those who are not of the Hao Clan are not allowed to get close. Your subordinate has been trying to find a way, but I have never been able to do so."
The middle-aged man said, "Didn't you marry a woman from the Hao Clan?"
He Chang said helplessly, "If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have been able to take charge of the Creation Factory. It would have been difficult to take another step forward."
Wei Shan said, "There's no need for you to blame yourself. You've already done very well." He asked about the specifics of the situation and consoled He Chang before dismissing him.
At this moment, the middle-aged man said, "Teacher, I heard that those Xuanxiu people have progressed further than us. Moreover, they seem to have close ties with the upper echelons of the Hao Clan. If they want to obtain those skills, it should be very easy for them. Perhaps they have already obtained them, but they have not given them to us. I think they just don't want to see our creations improve!"
Wei Shan said in a low voice, "Let's not talk about whether they have obtained it or not. According to the Daoist cultivators, the Dao mechanisms on both sides are different. What can be done over there may not be the same here."
The middle-aged man argued, "But teacher, although the Dao mechanisms are different, the success of the Creation Shell has already proved that our creations can also climb to the next level. This method is feasible. It's just that we haven't found the right method yet."
As he said this, he said in annoyance, "If Xuanting had agreed to support us this time, we might have been able to pass this hurdle. Those Daoist cultivators just don't want to see us doing well! "
Wei Shan glanced at him and said, "You're too stubborn."
The middle-aged man was stunned. He raised his head and said, "Teacher?"
Wei Shan said in a low voice, "In the past, I also thought that Xuanting was suppressing creations and did not want to give in. But later on, I thought about it carefully. Xuanting was not afraid of us improving. Instead, they were afraid that we would progress too quickly and be unable to control the power that they could not control.
How many years have we walked on that level? More than a thousand years. In just a short two hundred years, we have walked to a similar level. In fact, this is the result of Xuanting's push. Now that we have everything we need, we can't be anxious anymore. Just like a sprinter, we need to stop and rest. We don't need to be so extreme now. We just need to walk forward with our feet on the ground. "
However, the middle-aged man said anxiously, "Teacher, this is clearly a great opportunity for us. Why should we give it up?"
Wei Shan said earnestly, "An opportunity is an opportunity, but it also depends on whether we can grasp it or not. To fight for something that we can't have in the first place is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant. We'll eat ourselves full."
He comforted, "You don't have to think that there is no chance. Isn't it enough that we have this Creation Shell? Once we've fully grasped this and are able to control it freely, we'll naturally be able to fight for what we can get. "
The middle-aged man was still unwilling. He said, "But such a good opportunity …"
Wei Shan shook his head and said, "I said, with our current strength, even if Xuanting is really pushing us from behind, it will only be pulling the seedlings to help them grow. It will not be beneficial for the long term. Instead, it will be top-heavy. If something goes wrong, then it will be the fault of creations. It is very likely that creations will be destroyed overnight. I would rather be stable now. In my opinion, Xuanting's decision is correct."
The middle-aged man lowered his head and did not say anything, but he was clearly not convinced.
Wei Shan waved his hand and sighed. "Go back and think about it. Come find me when you have thought it through. "
The middle-aged man raised his hand and bowed, then walked out without saying a word.
Wei Shan looked at his figure and sighed inwardly. "I don't know if it was right or wrong for me to put you in the Tenki-in Hall back then."
The middle-aged man walked out, but he did not return to his residence. Instead, he took an underground car and arrived at a remote courtyard in the Yujing Tenki-in Hall. There was a tea room here, and an ordinary-looking old man in a silver robe was waiting for him. After the middle-aged man sat down, the old man asked, "What did the Grandmaster say?"
The middle-aged man's mood was a bit gloomy. At the same time, he was also a bit resentful. He said, "The old man might have been scared out of his wits by what happened last time. He has long since lost his original lofty ambitions. He even said that Xuan Ting was right. He said that Heavenly Fate's creation should be slowed down.
The old man in the silver robe sighed. "The foundation of the Tenki-in Hall is the elite students. Now that we are competing with Xuanxiu, how can we give in at this time? If we don't advance, we will fall behind."
"Isn't that so?"
The middle-aged man said, "The appearance of that Square Layer Realm proves that creations can do everything. It was such a good opportunity, and the heavens were on our side. However, Xuanting snatched it away." At this moment, a waitress walked over. He stopped talking and asked for a cup of tea.
The old man in the silver robe said matter-of-factly, "It's natural for them to suppress us, because they are afraid."
"Afraid?"
The middle-aged man was somewhat puzzled. "What are they afraid of? Of us? "
The old man in the silver robe said, "Look at that Square Layer Realm. How superb are their creations? They forced the cultivation sects there to the outer heavens. Xuanting's superiors must have seen it, so how can they support us? Aren't they afraid that we will be able to do the same thing one day? "
The middle-aged man suddenly understood. He usually focused on the development of his skills and creations, and did not care about other things. When the old man said this, he also felt that it was reasonable. He said, "Then what we need to do is to make the impossible possible!"
The old man in the silver robe said leisurely, "It's useless to just shout. Grandmaster Wei's prestige is unparalleled. If he doesn't agree, we can't do it from the inside of the Tenki-in Hall."
The middle-aged man realized something and said, "From the inside? Sir, are you saying that we can find a way from the outside? "
The old man in the silver robe said, "There is a way to try, but it depends on whether you are willing to do it."
The middle-aged man said anxiously, "What is it? Please enlighten me, sir! "
The old man in the silver robe said, "Do you know the An Family?"
The middle-aged man said without hesitation, "I do. They are a famous family of craftsmen in the outside. There are five generations in the family, and each generation has an outstanding craftsman. The An Family has a son who is Guo Ying's student. It is said that he was once taken in as a student by an important figure. "
The old man in the silver robe said, "It's not a rumor, it's true. This important figure also gave the An Family's son a lot of the ancient god's creation skills. Last time, the Yujing Tenki-in Hall asked him for his skills several times, but he refused. The Tenki-in Hall also rejected his application to be a master craftsman. "
The middle-aged man was startled and said, "There's such a thing? I just came back not long ago, so I don't know. "
He commented, "This An Family's son doesn't see the big picture. The matter of creation should be shared with other colleagues, so that it can promote the progress of the art of creation. How can he keep it to himself? Also, the Tenki-in Hall isn't right. If the An Family's son really has the skills of a master craftsman, then he should be given a proper title, and not used as a threat. They are not tolerant, and this makes them seem like a petty person. "
The old man in the silver robe looked at him and said, "We're not here to judge who's right and who's wrong today. The An Family's son not only grasped the ancient god's skills, but it is said that he also grasped some of the superior skills of that layer. It is suspected that it was given to him by that important figure."
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then he leaned forward and asked anxiously, "Can you prove it?"
The old man in the silver robe took out a jade tablet and said, "Recently, the Dongting Prefecture has released many creations. You can take a look."
The jade board was not handed to him. He just held it in his hand and looked at it. Even though it was new, he could still see that many parts of the creations had absorbed the essence of that layer. If he did not obtain the specific skills, it would be impossible for him to do this.
He thought for a moment, then frowned and said, "But that can't prove that the An Family's son has the skills of a master craftsman. The creations on it are only related to the people's livelihood."
The old man in the silver robe said, "It doesn't matter if he doesn't. He will definitely gain more than us. If we can 'persuade' him to take it out, then we can complement each other. And if he really does grasp these skills, then he will gain even more. "
The middle-aged man agreed and said, "You're right. But this An Family's son has already rejected us once. Will he still agree to our request?"
The old man in the silver robe said in a low voice, "I have an idea." His lips moved, and the middle-aged man listened carefully and nodded continuously. His expression was sometimes nervous, sometimes hesitant, and sometimes excited.
After discussing for a long time, the two of them seemed to have come to a decision, and then they left.
Not long after the two of them left, the female attendant came to clean up the mess. She looked at the teacup in her hand and felt that it was very strange. This was because she saw the middle-aged man sitting there talking non-stop to the other side, but he was clearly alone from beginning to end.
But then again, these master craftsmen and master craftsmen all had strange tempers. Perhaps this was normal?
