"I'm sorry for seniors, I just want to die..."
Knowing that the distance is so far, the ability to flick his long sword with one finger must be much stronger than him. The middle-aged man did not despise him because of his youth. He bowed to the end, his eyes full of loneliness.
"Cultivating to your level at the age of 30 is not a bad genius. What is the reason, so desperate? Willing to die?"
Zhang Xuan is strange.
Even if Huoyuan City is rich in resources, someone who can reach this level in their thirties is not low in talent.
With strength and talent, why not do it?Why can't you think about committing suicide?
"Please ask me, senior, I really don't have the motivation to live..."
The middle-aged man shook his head: "Fire City, where the earth and fire are powerful, and the most famous profession is a weapon refiner. I started learning at the age of seven, and I have been an apprentice for 24 years to Sun Jin, the great master of weapon refining. I thought I could be accepted as an apprentice. Under the sect, who knows... I have failed the assessment for ten consecutive years! Such a poor talent, so stupid, what is the point of living? I am ashamed of my family, ashamed of my profession, I might as well die..."
"Being an apprentice for 24 years?" Zhang Xuan was taken aback: "You are now...not even a one-star craftsman?"
Huafan Ninth Layer powerhouses, according to their ranks, are at least five-star peak refiners, or just apprentices... Really?
Are there such stupid people in the world?
"Hmm! Every time I refine a weapon, I can't control the temperature of the ground fire well, and eventually the body of the weapon is scrapped... In this assessment, Master Sun Jin couldn't bear it any longer and expelled me from the master. Now even the apprentices No. My family all hoped that I could become a craftsman and become famous, but in the end I was expelled. How can I see people..."
The more I talk, the more I feel uncomfortable, and the middle-aged people feel sad from it.
Zhang Xuan blinked his eyes.
A Huafan Ninth Layer powerhouse started learning weapon refining at the age of seven, but he has not even passed the examination of a one-star weapon refining master. Even if he has no talent, he will not be so talented!
If it is true, it is indeed difficult to accept the blow.
"What's the problem? Even a one-star craftsman failed the examination?"
Zhang Xuan is strange.
A one-star craftsman has a simple foundation, and a martial artist in the Profound Realm can do it. The one in front of him, who is at the Ninth Level of Mortal Transformation, has also cultivated his soul and has fine control. How could such a simple refinement fail?
"I don't know either. I only know that every time the assessment is made, the weapon cannot be successfully refined." The middle-aged man shook his head, without any confidence in his eyes. It seems that the continuous assessment made him lose all confidence.
"Can't refine successfully?" After a pause, Zhang Xuan looked over: "Can you refine a lowest-level weapon and show me?"
A majestic Huafan ninth-layer powerhouse could not even pass the examination of a one-star craftsman. This is something that I didn't even dare to think about before. It's just a fantasy, it's unbelievable.
"Thank you senior for saving my life, but I have decided to die. Even if I continue to refine, it will not help. It is better to let a useless person like me commit suicide, so as not to continue to embarrass me!" The middle-aged man bowed and said .
"There is plenty of time for suicide, and I have a lot of research on refining equipment. Maybe I can see your problems and let you pass the examination smoothly."
Zhang Xuan said.
If the other party really wants to commit suicide, he doesn't care about it. He just thinks it's unbelievable that a majestic ninth-level powerhouse can't even pass the test of a one-star craftsman.
"This..." The middle-aged man's face was uncertain.
"Anyway, you are going to commit suicide, if I can't solve it, it's not too late to commit suicide!" Zhang Xuan smiled.
"Okay!" The middle-aged man nodded, clenching his teeth.
That's right, he is a person who is going to commit suicide, and he has nothing to lose. Even if the other party can't see anything, it doesn't matter, the big deal is death.
"There is a quiet room over there that I specially use for refining weapons, and everything is there, let's go there!"
After speaking, lead the way first, and after a short time, the two came to a small room.
There are all kinds of ground fires and refining furnaces here, and there are many ores on the shelves not far away, many of which are not seen in the market. It seems that although this middle-aged man is not a high-level refining, Rare metals are collected a lot.
Looking around, he suddenly landed on an ore, and his eyelids couldn't help but twitch.
"This is... Violet Gold?"
Violet gold is a very rare ore, melting it into a unique utensil can greatly increase its power.
"Using this thing, coupled with the corresponding refining techniques, can completely make Jin Yuanding break through its current strength!"
Both eyes are shining, Zhang Xuan is full of excitement.
Before, he had always thought about helping Jin Yuan Ding improve his strength, but the ore he needed had not been found, so the matter was shelved.
Unexpectedly, he rescued a person who was about to commit suicide and found this kind of ore in his quiet room.
"I'm starting!"
Not seeing the change in his expression, the middle-aged man let out a low cry and came to the refining furnace.
Grabbing forward with the palm of the hand, the true energy in the body was burning, and the ground fire was drawn out immediately.
The scorching flames roared, and the walls of the quiet room were reflected red. When I grabbed the palm, a huge hammer appeared in the palm, and then a piece of fine iron was put into it. After a while, it was burned and softened.
Jingle Jingle!
Hitting it, the iron block quickly took shape and turned into a sharp long sword.
It has to be said that this middle-aged man has reached the point of perfection in tempering the tires, much stronger than him, a six-star peak craftsman.
Not long after, the tire took shape, grabbed it again, and planned to quench it, but at this moment, the ground fire surged violently, and in the blink of an eye, the long sword that had just been tempered was burned into molten iron. , destroyed at once.
"Failed again, I said that I can't refine successfully..." The middle-aged man was full of frustration, and his eyes showed loss.
I thought the ending could be changed this time, but the result was exactly the same as before, without any change.
"This..." Different from his frustration, Zhang Xuan frowned after seeing the whole refining process.
With his current eyesight, even if he doesn't use the Tiandao Library, he can still see the crux and problems of the other party's refining equipment.
There were no mistakes in the method used by the other party to temper the tires, but in tempering, the true energy in the body and the ground fire appeared to recoil, which led to the successful refining of the tires, which melted in the blink of an eye...
In other words, there is nothing wrong with the quenching steps, but the properties of the true energy in his body and the ground fire are exactly opposite. Once quenched, it will cause the restlessness of the ground fire, turning the previous tire into waste, which will lead to a failure .
"True Qi and Earth Fire collide...Six-star peak craftsmen should be able to see it?" Zhang Xuan frowned.
If it's a big defect, it's fine if you can't see it. The most basic thing in this kind of practice, as long as you have reached the six-star peak, you can't not know it!
That being the case, why didn't the six-star Grandmaster Sun Jin mentioned by the other party speak out?Not to mention any pointers?
It's understandable that this middle-aged man couldn't find out, after all, although his strength has reached, because even a one-star craftsman has not passed the examination, he is not qualified to read higher-level books.
And this kind of conflicting power can only be known by reaching the six-star peak level.
"No..." Thinking in his heart, Zhang Xuan suddenly frowned. The conflict of true energy means that there are contradictions in the cultivation techniques and weapon refining. Since this guy has been learning weapon refining since he was seven years old, how could there be such a minimum? grade error?
"Unless someone did it on purpose..." His eyes narrowed immediately.
Quack doctors harm people, mediocre teachers mislead people, unless someone deliberately made him practice the wrong exercises from the very beginning, this is the situation in front of him.
It's just practicing the wrong exercises... What's the benefit to the other party?
Full of bewilderment, Zhang Xuan's eyes fell on the surrounding ore shelves, and his heart suddenly moved.
"You collected all these ores?"
"Yes!" I don't know why he asked this way, but the middle-aged man nodded his head: "Fire source city is full of ground fires, and the places where the flames are thick contain a lot of ores... With the attraction of true energy in the body, you can find a lot of them every time. .”
"Attracted by true energy?"
"Yes! Our training methods are all taught by Master Sun Jin. If you practice hard, you will naturally be sensitive to these ores, and it is easy to find many..."
The middle-aged man nodded.
"You? There are many people who practice the same technique as you?" Zhang Xuan looked over.
"There are many. There were more than 30 apprentices who followed and studied together. However, most of them were engulfed by the ground fire when they were looking for ores and burned to ashes. The only ones left are me and the other one!"
After thinking about it, the middle-aged man said.
"Is that person also unable to become a real refiner?"
As if he had figured out something, Zhang Xuan looked over.
"Yes! He is one year older than me, and he also failed to pass the assessment. He couldn't bear the pressure last year, and committed suicide..." Thinking of the partner who was with him, the middle-aged man shook his head.
One can imagine the loss in his heart after studying for so many years, but he failed to become a real craftsman. If he can last one more year, his mind is relatively firm.
"Suicide?" Zhang Xuan was stunned, looked around for a week, and continued to ask: "Then... where did all the ores you found go? There should be more than that!"
Since he has the ability to find ores, he should have found a lot of them after so many years, not just those in the room.
"I found a lot of ores, but most of them were handed over to Sun Jin as tuition fees! I have studied with him since I was a child and imparted a lot of knowledge, so I have today, and the tuition fees will naturally be paid."
The middle-aged man nodded.
"Pay tuition? That's it, I understand!"
Suddenly realized, Zhang Xuan's eyes flashed, his face was terribly indifferent.
Chapter 21 Despicable Sun Jin
After hearing this, he can basically be sure that this Sun Jin refiner mentioned by the other party has no intention of taking him as an apprentice at all, but uses it as a tool to find ore!
Rare ores are usually formed by fluctuations in the earth's crust, and they will be born with the earth's fire. Therefore, where the latter gathers, there must be a lot of ores.
This Sun Jin, let the other party deliberately cultivate the true energy that is in conflict with the earth fire, and it is easy to sense the place where the flames are thick, and the search for ore will be twice the result with half the effort. It became impossible!
In other words, from the beginning of training, the other party did not intend to make him a refiner.
In Fire Source City, there are so many rare ores, even if the refiners make more money, compared with selling these ores, it is still many times worse.
"As a teacher, you actually do such a thing..."
Zhang Xuan was furious.
It's fine if he didn't meet him, since he met him, how could he let it go!
This kind of scum is punishable by everyone.
Although the other party is not a famous teacher, but under the guise of inheriting, he is doing things that deceive people's children, which is even more hateful than those irresponsible teachers.
Not to mention anything else, more than 30 apprentices like this middle-aged man were personally instructed by the six-star master craftsman. They thought they could become famous, and they went farther and farther. They never dreamed that they all died in the end looking for ore , even if the person in front of him survived by luck, he would not be able to become a refiner in the end, and wanted to commit suicide in depression.
As for Sun Jin, he just recruited a group of apprentices, which is neither true biography nor teaching... He can't become a craftsman, and his reputation won't be damaged too much. If it spreads out, it will make people think that it's this group of people who don't study hard. It's useless to follow behind a six-star craftsman...
This middle-aged man should be unable to bear this kind of accusation, so he can't think about it...
I didn't hear it with my own ears, maybe I never dreamed that there would be such a scum in the mighty Fire Source City Artifact Refiner's Guild.
Evangelism, karma and confusion, are all teachers.
As a high-ranking craftsman, if he really wants to recruit dead men who are looking for ores, he should be able to find them too. However, once they are discovered, his reputation will be insulted, and recruiting some apprentices to give advice in name will not only harm his reputation, It can be driven even better... After it's used up, kick it away like a piece of grass, it's really ruthless.
"After studying with a six-star craftsman for so many years, I can't even refine a single low-level mortal weapon. Everywhere I go, I get ridiculed, and even my family members are implicated. It's better to die than that. never mind!"
Seeing the senior who prevented him from committing suicide, he bowed his head in thought. The middle-aged man thought that the other party had nothing to do, and his eyes were full of disappointment.
It would be fine if he was just being ridiculed. The most important thing is that his family members will be implicated, which is what he can't bear.
"Don't be discouraged, I have already found out the root cause of your inability to refine weapons! Just believe me, not only will you succeed in refining weapons, but you will also become a five-star refiner, or even a six-star!"
Seeing that he has no fighting spirit and will seek death at any time, Zhang Xuan comforted him.
Saying this is not talking nonsense and deliberately comforting the other party, but that he has this ability.
It is difficult for others to change the exercises, but with his insight and vision, it is not impossible to create a new set of exercises for him to learn and change the previous shortcomings.
Of course, the premise is to know what the technique he is practicing is.
Just now, when refining the weapon, I observed carefully with the eye of understanding. The other party's cultivation formulas should be incomplete. If I can't find the details, even if I know it, there is no way to solve it.
"Become a five-star or six-star refiner?"
The middle-aged man froze for a moment, shook his head, and the disappointment in his eyes became more intense.
I thought that the one in front of me was so powerful that he could really help him, but I never dreamed of it, so it was a bit of nonsense when I opened my mouth.
Can't even become a one-star, can't refine any weapons, how can it be possible to become a five-star or even a six-star craftsman?
Are you kidding me?
"Do you think I'm ridiculous and want to laugh at me before I die?"
Looking over, the middle-aged man's voice was weak, as if he had lost all fighting spirit.
"laugh at?"
Unexpectedly, this guy suddenly said this, Zhang Xuan was taken aback for a moment, and then understood.
The other party is a waste who can't even pass the examination of a one-star craftsman. It is indeed too much to say five-star or six-star to him.
