Shuanghu Island Port.
The Blue Dragon was docked in the middle of the Chen Clan’s slave-transporting boats, which were about 150 feet long. It seemed rather small.
In front of the dock.
” You don’t have to.” Chen Xianhe waved his hand.” You can all go back now.”
After looking around, Chen Xianhe’s gaze finally fell on Chen Daoxuan. A hint of reluctance flashed across his eyes.
“All of you can leave for now.”
“Yes, Young Clan Leader.”
Chen Daoxuan dismissed his clansmen and stepped forward.” It’s better for Thirteenth Uncle to maintain the original number of flying swords you’re selling on this trip to Guang ‘an Prefecture.”
Chen Xianhe nodded.” That should be the case. Now that the spirit vein of the Chen family has been established, we have a foundation. Once Dao Chu and the others grow up, they will be able to take on the heavy responsibility of the family. It won’t be too late to sell the flying swords in large quantities.”
Seeing Chen Daoxuan take the initiative to mention this matter, Chen Xianhe felt more at ease.
This proved that Chen Daoxuan was not blinded by the huge profits brought by the flying sword business. He knew that the most important thing for the Chen family at this time was not to earn a large number of spirit stones, but to lack time to grow.
Even though most of the second-hand magical equipment market in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s wandering cultivator market was occupied by wandering cultivators, it was hard to say that there were no large immortal cultivation clans involved.
Even if the great cultivation clans didn’t care about such a small profit, the disciples of the great clans who supplied second-hand flying swords to the magic tool shops would still have a share of the profit.
If the Chen family sold the brand-new flying swords without restraint, it would not only impact the business of these second-hand magic tool shops, but it would also affect the descendants of the big families who supplied these magic tool shops.
At this time, it was really inconvenient for the Chen family to set up these enemies.
Before the Chen family’s spirit vein was established, they had no choice but to be radical.
Otherwise, without spiritual energy to cultivate, one’s cultivation would not be able to improve. Why would one care if they offended others or not?
However, now that the Chen family already had a spirit vein, if they wanted to monopolize the magical equipment market in Guang ‘an Prefecture’s Wandering Cultivator Market, they would definitely incur the hatred of the original magical equipment shop owners and some disciples of large cultivation clans.
In order to earn goods that he temporarily could not use, it was unwise to incur the hatred of some enemies early on.
Chen Xianhe had been in charge of the Chen family for so many years. Despite being weak, he still managed to establish a foothold on Shuanghu Island.
Seeing that Thirteenth Uncle quickly understood his intentions, Chen Daoxuan nodded in relief.
In his mind, before the Chen family grew stronger, he was not prepared to wantonly occupy the magical equipment market in the wandering cultivator market.
Most of the magic tools in the wandering cultivator market were low-grade magic tools.
Rogue cultivators could only afford a medium-grade Level One magic tool worth a hundred spirit stones at most.
There were only a few high-grade level one magic tools in the magic tool shops in the wandering cultivator market.
This was not because the shopkeepers of the magic tool shops could not get their hands on Level One high-grade magic tools, but because the itinerant cultivators ‘purses were thin and their purchasing power was limited.
In addition, it was difficult to refine magic tools, and the profits from low-level magic tools were meager. The large immortal cultivation clans generally did not take a fancy to the magic tool market in the wandering cultivator market.
For example, when the Yang family wanted to buy magic tools, they would directly go to the Zhou Precious Tool Pavilion to order them in large quantities.
The trade of magical artifacts between large clans like theirs was often on the scale of thousands or even tens of thousands of magical artifacts.
With the number of blacksmiths in the Zhou Clan, it was already exhausting to satisfy the shortage of magic tools for the hundreds of thousands of cultivators in the Zhou Clan, as well as the shortage of magic tools for the disciples of the other great cultivation clans.
How could he have the energy to care about the wandering cultivators in the wandering cultivator market?
According to rumors, the Zhou Clan faced a huge shortage of magic tools every year.
In other words, many of the Zhou Precious Tool Pavilion’s magic tools were imported from other prefectures or even other states through special channels.
The magic tools that they refined themselves could not even satisfy the hundreds of thousands of cultivators in their family.
In reality.
The war between the Qian Yuan Sword Sect and the Yun Nation lasted for more than 400 years.
Both sides were in dire need of magic tools, pills, and other resources.
However, at this point in the war, neither side dared to take a step back, because once they did, they might be consigned to eternal damnation.
Whether it was the Qian Yuan Sword Sect or the Xuan Qing Dao League, they were both gritting their teeth and holding on.
Fortunately, the Qian Yuan Sword Sect had the upper hand in this war. The flames of war were raging in the Yun Nation, so it did not affect the headquarters of the Infinite Star Sea.
Therefore, the Chen family in Guang ‘an Prefecture, far away in Cangzhou, almost did not feel the impact of the war.
However, for the cultivators of the Yun Nation, the impact of this 400-year-long war was too great.
to bid farewell to Chen Xianhe.
Chen Daoxuan began to officially teach the five newly advanced Qi Condensation cultivators of the Chen family how to refine artifacts.
Chen Daoxuan thought.
The resources that Chen Daochu and the other three had to learn about refining weapons were hundreds of times better than when he first came.
He didn’t say anything.
The three major steps of refining were refining, shaping, and fusing arrays.
First of all, the most complicated refining step was omitted because of the existence of the Harmonious Spirit Stove.
One had to know.
By eliminating the step of refining materials, it was not as simple as not having to learn the fire control technique.
There was also the huge amount of energy wasted in the process of refining materials every time.
Chen Daoxuan remembered that when he was learning how to refine weapons, every time he finished refining the materials, even if he had the Primordial Enlightenment Scripture to help recover his consciousness, the true qi consumed was real.
He needed to refine the spiritual energy bit by bit to recover.
Refining the materials would take about two to three days, and it would take at least a night to recover his true qi.
In total, even with the help of the Primordial Enlightenment Scripture, Chen Daoxuan could only attempt to shape and fuse the array once in three days at most.
This was without considering the failure of refining the materials.
Not to mention that Chen Daoxuan was completely self-taught at that time. There was no one to teach him array formation and array fusion knowledge.
From this, it could be seen that Chen Daoxuan’s talent in the path of artifact refinement was truly monstrous.
Even in the vast Guang ‘an Prefecture, no one had ever heard of someone as talented as him.
And now.
How good were the resources for Chen Daochu and the others to learn refining?
Not only did he not need to refine the materials, but he could also try to shape and fuse the array up to five times a day.
If the workers in the flying sword factory were to work in three shifts, they would have at most twelve chances to refine flying swords every day.
Furthermore, the formation of a low-grade Tier i flying sword did not expend much of his divine sense and true qi.
Even if he was at the first qi layer, he could easily do it.
Not only that.
Everyone also had Chen Daoxuan, this experienced first tier upper grade Armament Master, who was always by their side to guide them.
He was just short of shouting into everyone’s ears.
“Chen Daochu! Are you a pig?”
No matter how good Chen Daoxuan’s temper was, he had been driven mad by Chen Daochu and the others for so many days.
“How many times have 1 told you? The path of fusing arrays lies in the foundation. If your first array pattern is already unstable, how are you going to inscribe the rest? Not to mention fusing the formation with the artifact embryo!”
Hearing this scolding, Chen Daochu’s small shoulders trembled slightly, and he pulled a long face.
After more than a month of teaching.
Even with Chen Daoxuan’s good temper, he was almost angered by Chen Daochu and the other idiots.
Chen Daoxuan finally understood how the parents who helped their children with homework felt in his previous life.
He really didn’t learn how to be kind and filial, but instead, he learned how to be like a chicken and a dog..
