398: Chapter 163 Reincarnation of Great Ability_4 398: Chapter 163 Reincarnation of Great Ability_4 Elder Huan Kong also knew that pills couldn’t be refined this way, but he had truly lost his nerve from previous defeats, prompting him to remind Zhou Juedan again.
With no other choice, Zhou Juedan could only promise, “Fine, Elder, rest assured.
No matter what, these materials are my own, and for their sake alone, I will give my all to alchemy.
Besides, I’m representing Thousand Caves Door right now, and we’ve lost too much already.
The only way for to restore so face this ti is to win cleanly and decisively.”
“That’s good to hear.
You don’t need to bother with him; don’t let him set the pace.
Just act as if Cao Zhen doesn’t exist, Cave Master Zhou.”
No sooner had Elder Huan Kong transmitted his ssage covertly than he heard Cao Zhen’s voice again.
“Elder Huan Kong, shall we continue?”
Elder Huan Kong was confused all over again, “Continue?
Continue what?”
Cao Zhen looked earnestly at Elder Huan Kong and said, “Naturally, the discourse.
Didn’t I just say it?
I’m also skilled in artifact refining, talisman making, formations, military law…
Whoever wants to challenge in a discourse, let’s all co together.”
Elder Huan Kong was thoroughly baffled, “What do you an?
You’re busy with alchemy, aren’t you?
Why engage in a discourse?”
“Who says that alchemy precludes other discourses?
I’m truly pressed for ti here, mainly because I also need to craft a flying boat…
Right, flying boats involve chanical techniques.
Anyone wishing to compete in chanical techniques is welco to join as well.
We can also discuss formations, military law, and talismans all together.”
Since these people all wanted to compete against him anyway, he might as well finish all the contests at once and then leave.
The cultivators of Thousand Caves Door were nearly exploding with anger!
So this was what Cao Zhen ant by inviting them all together: he wanted to engage in discourse with everyone simultaneously, not one at a ti!
Arrogant!
So arrogantly beyond limits!
This was an outright insult to Thousand Caves Door; it was a direct slap in their face!
Lan Pili, on the other hand, was becoming anxious and even set aside covert communication to say directly to Cao Zhen, “Old Cao, although we’re in a hurry, we’re not that pressed for ti.
Once we’ve refined the flying boat and its speed is sufficient, we’ll make it in ti.
Let us take our ti with the discourse, one by one, slowly.”
“Don’t worry, I have it under control,” Cao Zhen casually waved his hand.
Alchemy?
Talisman making?
As long as you have hands, what’s the issue?
Even when it ca to crafting a flying boat.
He had previous experience in crafting one, and being familiar with the process, it wouldn’t take much ti or effort.
Formations were slightly tricky, requiring a bit more concentration, but it was manageable.
Elder Huan Kong’s face was an iron blue shade as he declared, “Fine, if Peak Master Cao wants to compete, then let’s compete.
Snow Peak, go find several Cave Masters…”
After a period enough to burn an incense stick, various Cave Masters gathered at the site.
Cao Zhen began by addressing each of the Cave Masters in turn.
“This Cave Master specializes in chanical techniques, right?
Until now, it has always been you who set the challenges.
How about I issue a challenge this ti?
Let’s compete in crafting flying boats over seven days, and whoever crafts the better flying boat wins, how about it?”
“As for formations…
we’ll set up a formation that can, well, conceal itself, and we’ll install it on this flying boat.”
With an abundance of materials arriving, Cao Zhen began the crafting process.
Next to him, the flas roared in the pill furnace, yet Cao Zhen scarcely attended to it, only occasionally casting an alchemy technique into the furnace.
The majority of his efforts were devoted to the formation and flying boat before him.
All around, the crowd watched Cao Zhen flit from task to task, utterly dumbfounded.
Cao Zhen was actually refining pills, creating formations, and crafting a flying boat all by himself!
Although his alchemy skills appeared lacking, and it was likely that the pills would be waste or blow up the furnace, it was clear that Cao Zhen truly understood formations, and was highly adept in that area.
The disciples of Thousand Caves Door grew more astonished as they watched.
“This Cao Zhen, his knowledge of formations is truly profound; just look at him when he’s working on formations…”
“Even more terrifying is his expertise in chanical techniques.
Look at how adept his techniques are!”
“To use chanical techniques that way, those movents…
how did he co up with that?”
“This is bad; we might be losing in chanical techniques.”
Listening to the exclamations from the crowd, Elder Huan Kong grew increasingly alard.
He had so understanding of the subject, albeit so more than others.
As for chanical techniques, he might as well admit complete ignorance.
But according to these disciples, Cao Zhen was likely to win in the field of chanical techniques.
Here was Cao Zhen, simultaneously competing in alchemy, formations, and chanical techniques; if he won in this manner, Thousand Caves Door would lose face on this aspect alone, without considering anything else.
To be outperford by a man multitasking would exhibit Thousand Caves Door in an even worse light!
While he pondered nervously, a middle-aged man approached in the distance.
His robust body resembled a tower, and as he moved with the poise of a dragon and the stride of a tiger, people around him cleared a path.
“Cave Master Qian Jun.”
“Cave Master, you’re here for the discourse.”
“Look behind him; Cave Master Po Jun has also arrived.”
“And Cave Master Qi Bing too.”
“All the Cave Masters of Military Tactics are here.”
In Hundred Peaks Sect, only Military God Peak specialized in the military law, but in Thousand Caves Door, there were five caves dedicated to it.
All five Cave Masters joined forces and approached.
They all exchanged bewildered looks upon seeing Cao Zhen concurrently working on formations, pills, and the flying boat.
