True Master Jingchi and Yan Huo walked along the street, observing the various shops related to artifact refining and the endless stream of cultivators, feeling a burst of vibrant developnt.
This street leads to the plaza within Huozhen Immortal City, which is specially designated for stalls. So people are calling out, while others squint their eyes, waiting for custors. Various refining materials are displayed, so of which even the two Nascent Soul cultivators find valuable.
But from the perspective of a Rank-4 Artifact Refiner, they quickly realized that many are fake.
However, on stalls, a mix of the genuine and fake is the norm.
After each purchasing so minerals they fancied, they arrived at the easternmost side of the Immortal City.
This is the refining location Chen Mobai chose, close to the core of a fire vein. Additionally, there’s a creek, and custom-made slting equipnt stands over open fire eyes, continuously drawing Earth-Core True Fire to refine various precious minerals.
"Please, esteed seniors."
Upon seeing them, Tan Rong verified the Heaven Heart Sword Talisman and imdiately activated the restriction to allow them in.
Recently, Chen Mobai has started preparing to refine a Fifth Rank Artifact, and True Master Jingchi and Yan Huo, qualified as Fire Burning Boys, often co to assist.
Chen Mobai has always loved teaching. He told them to feel free to ask anything they didn’t understand.
Initially, the two were very reserved, until later when True Master Jingchi saw Chen Mobai drafting a thousand diagrams and couldn’t help but ask why it needed to be so complicated.
"Solving all the problems on paper before refining allows you to handle it easily during the process and prevents any accidents."
This was Chen Mobai’s answer, consistent with one of the principles of artifact refining at the Immortal Gate.
"True Monarch, wouldn’t such extensive preparation restrict an artifact refiner’s inspiration?"
True Master Jingchi, the typical artifact refiner in the Tianhe Realm, believes that to reach peak mastery, one must not be constrained by regulations; free-thinking is essential.
Thus, in the Tianhe Realm, the only requirent for refining magic artifacts is functionality.
For example, if a sword cultivator wants a sword, they would refine a flying sword based on the materials, and all the details are left to the refiner’s discretion; the client cannot say a word.
Chen Mobai, however, was different. Before refining, he used over a hundred diagrams just for the design, including flat, sectional, and three-dinsional views from every angle, ensuring no detail was overlooked.
As for the assembly, combination, processes, and so on, even more diagrams were involved.
"As an artifact refiner, one must be responsible for the client. I believe this is the most basic professional ethic and morality. If you want to unleash your inspiration, you can gather materials yourself."
Chen Mobai stated the Immortal Gate concepts he had been taught from a young age, and could only say that the Hundred Arts of Cultivation Immortal in the Tianhe Realm are closed off, allowing those who have learned to be too comfortable.
"The virtue of True Monarch makes ashad!"
True Master Jingchi was full of appreciation after listening to Chen Mobai’s response.
Although it was known that this Chen Sect Master had the deanor of ancient sages, only after truly interacting with him did one realize even sages couldn’t match his virtue.
"This is just basic morality."
Chen Mobai shook his head, saying this simply.
After this, whenever True Master Jingchi asked, it was about practical operations. Chen Mobai selectively answered him, sharing everything except so crucial Immortal Gate techniques.
The more they interacted, the more the two Nascent Soul cultivators felt insufficient in their level.
On this day, while explaining a mineral refinent thod, Chen Mobai suddenly paused and looked towards Northern Abyss City.
He sensed an aura no less overwhelming than his own had arrived.
It was a Deity Transformation True Monarch he hadn’t encountered before.
It should be Ao Yuxia of Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace.
"A guest is here; I’ll go welco them."
Chen Mobai put down the sample in his hand and transford into a silver light, disappearing on the spot, instantly moving to the large-scale transmission array outside Northern Abyss City.
A bright-eyed youth in silk robes stood outside the transmission array, his deanor relaxed, with sword-like brows and starry eyes, with a slight curiosity on his face. The mont he saw Chen Mobai, he was slightly shaken.
However, Chen Mobai glanced past him to the person behind the youth.
A tall and slender beauty with jet-black hair had just walked out of the transmission array, her features exquisite, brows like willow leaves, her eyes like deep pools, faintly flashing with sharp light.
As Chen Mobai’s gaze t hers, there was a collision of auras unique to divinity transformation, yet it instantly touched and parted.
"Greetings, Chen Sect Master. This is my friend, Jade Consort True Monarch Ao Yuxia of Purple Cloud Heavenly Palace."
As the two hesitated, not knowing how to begin, the Palace Master of Azure Fall stepped out of the transmission array and imdiately introduced them to Chen Mobai.
"Greetings, Jade Consort True Monarch!"
Chen Mobai also smiled slightly, saluting the Divinity Transformation cultivator from the Central State before him.
"I have long heard of the fa of the Blue Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness; eting in person, it truly lives up to the reputation."
Ao Yuxia was equally courteous, with her left hand behind her back and right hand forming a seal, performing the greeting ritual known among Dao friends in the Central State.
"Blue Emperor of the Eastern Wilderness?"
Chen Mobai was sowhat surprised by this title.
