Refining medicine can't save Doupo!

Chapter 490: The Wonder of Fighting Weapons—Nine-One Qi Gathering Tower Array!

"When we were in the Gama Empire, we already had this trend, but we left early, and there were not many high-level array weapon masters in the Gama Empire, so there was no time to carry out many large-scale battle weapon projects, so we didn't see much of it."

"If you return to the Gama Empire in a few years, there should be changes that will surprise you and me." Yao Chen mentioned the Gama Empire, the country that was rapidly absorbing the surrounding equipment refiners.

“Yes, there are actually signs of infrastructure construction over there, which will definitely surprise the people in the surrounding areas in the future.” Xiao Yan couldn't help but shake his head and laugh as he watched those fanatical Canaan elders knock down some houses that were in the way, and then throw out all the nodes of the sect protection formation.

"Infrastructure?"

"It's a basic building that can exist for a long time and can continuously bring benefits to the region." Xiao Yan explained with a smile.

"That's right." Yao Chen agreed, and said, "That kid probably didn't learn much about formations before, so he didn't leave any formation technology to the Jia Ma Empire. On the contrary, now he has started to learn formations, soul weapons, and even alchemy. It seems that he has encountered a bottleneck and is trying to use a new method to break through."

"Eh? Teacher, you know a lot about this?" Xiao Yan was slightly surprised, because Yao Chen rarely told him about refining. But soon, Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with understanding. It was a bit strange for a master of alchemy to talk about refining every day.

"Why? Can't I know a few high-level refiners?" Yao Chen asked unhappily, and then continued: "No matter what, talent is important. Only in the field of corresponding talent can you burst out the potential that surpasses ordinary people. For example, if that kid is trained as an alchemist since childhood, although he will have a promising future, he will definitely not be able to achieve results at such a young age that many people on the mainland cannot achieve in their lifetime."

"Besides, I was also known as the Weapon Master and Medicine Master together with Soul Craftsman, and I have met the Weapon Master a few times." Of course, Yao Chen would never tell Xiao Yan that the reason why Soul Craftsman was called Weapon Master was because the title of Weapon Master had always been in the hands of the Spirit Clan. Otherwise, as the only two ninth-level holy weapon masters in the Soul Craftsman Continent, he must be worthy of the title of Weapon Master.

"Wow, who is more powerful, the teacher or Master Qi?" Xiao Yan was slightly surprised, and then he started talking about something else.

Yaochen: "."

After hesitating for a long time, Yao Chen finally said, "In the field of alchemy, my master is still stronger."

Xiao Yan: “.” This time it was Xiao Yan’s turn to have his mouth twitching.

".What's with your expression, kid? I think you deserve a beating! Although the Venerable Qi is at the same level as me, ninth grade, ninth rank alchemists are objectively divided into treasure alchemists, and the Mysterious Alchemist should have higher potential than Venerable Qi's ninth grade holy alchemist."

"But the two sides cannot be compared in this way. The weapon refining system has been broken since the seventh level. This is why seventh-level weapon refiners are nicknamed super-level weapon refiners and weapon refining masters. The former refers to seventh-level weapon refiners who have begun to transcend the norm and have done extraordinary things. The latter refers to seventh-level weapon refiners who have embarked on their own path and can be called masters of a school."

“My master’s ninth-grade alchemy master was promoted step by step according to the inheritance, and each grade has mature techniques and alchemy recipes. But how Master Qi Zun became a ninth-grade sacred weapon master, no one knows until now. Many people even doubt that Master Qi Zun did not advance and that the ninth-grade sacred weapon master was just a bluff.” Yao Chen would never tell Xiao Yan this before, because he was worried that Xiao Yan’s foundation was not solid and he would be led astray by others.

Now that Xiao Yan was gradually going further in the field of alchemy, Yao Chen was not stingy in telling him some extra information to broaden Xiao Yan's horizons. In addition, Jiang Lin's current behavior made Yao Chen realize that there might be something in common between the two paths of alchemy and medicine, and they could reflect each other. "Then do you know whether that alchemist is a ninth-level holy alchemist?" Xiao Yan asked curiously.

"I don't know." Yao Chen was honest. After thinking for a while, he explained: "I have met that weapon master a few times. He does have a ninth-level soul weapon, but it feels a little short of it. Half a step to the ninth level? In short, he gave me a very special feeling. That person must have been stuck in a bottleneck, or he was confused and hesitant about the road ahead."

"They have walked their own way step by step. Master Qi is a terrifying all-rounder. His understanding of elixirs amazes me. In the end, he used elixir thunder to enter the weapon and redefined the standard method of the eighth-level weapon refiner, which is even more legendary." Yao Chen himself is a legend on the continent, but Soul Craftsman is a legend in Yao Chen's eyes. Yao Chen still remembers that he grew up listening to the stories of Soul Craftsman. At that time, he looked at Soul Craftsman like sitting in a well and looking at the moon. Although it was out of reach, it was just like that.

And when Yao Chen became the Medicine Venerable who was at the same level as the Weapon Venerable, he saw Soul Craftsman, but he was like a mayfly trying to shake a tree. Only then did he truly realize how terrifying this great god was in the field of weapon refining!
"When I first became an alchemist, the Weapon Master was still the Weapon Master. When I became a Medicine Master, the Weapon Master was still the Weapon Master. He was like a mountain, standing there silently, deterring anyone who tried to challenge him."

"I don't know the true situation of that person, but my intuition tells me that he seems to be stuck at the last step and doesn't know how to move forward. And that step has been stuck for hundreds of years."

"So strictly speaking, Master Qi is at most a half-step ninth-rank holy weapon master, right? It's like a half-saint, stuck at this stage." Yao Chen recalled carefully and felt that outsiders' doubts about Soul Craftsman were not groundless, but there were traces to follow.

"That person has fallen into a bottleneck, and even his cultivation has been stagnant at the peak of Dou Zun for hundreds of years. Alas." Yao Chen shook his head and skipped the topic: "You should practice well. When you are strong enough in the future, you will have a chance to meet that Venerable. The boy's master is from the Soul Craftsman lineage."

"Ah, this. No wonder Brother Lin is so arrogant." Xiao Yan's eyes were slightly startled, and then he sighed subconsciously:
"Unlike me, I can only..." Xiao Yan realized that he had said the wrong thing and immediately shut up.

"Unlike you, what can I only do???" In the storage ring, Yao Chen's eyes were slightly threatening.

"Well, what I meant was, unlike me, I don't have a teacher to accompany me throughout my growth!" Xiao Yan thought quickly and tried to make amends.

"I think you are just itching for trouble! Now you even dare to insult your master, right?!"

"Hahaha! Teacher, calm down, I'm just joking."

Ten days later, Jiang Lin walked out of the Burning Heaven Refining Tower and began to build a wonder for Canaan College.
