Chapter 364: Chapter 304: Your Majesty requests your presence! _1
Kong Linfeng appeared outside the Golden Throne Palace, without waiting for the guards to announce his arrival, Emperor Xuankong’s voice rang out, “Linfeng, come in!”
Kong Linfeng stepped into the grand hall and respectfully bowed to Emperor Xuankong seated on the throne, “Kongqian Heaven Dynasty’s Kong Linfeng pays his respects to Emperor Xuankong!”
The Xuankong Divine Dynasty controlled the Xuankong Domain, and the tens of thousands of divine dynasties beneath it were all its affiliates.
Moreover, Emperor Xuankong was a powerful being in the Divine Emperor Realm.
“Take your seat!” Emperor Xuankong said with a warm smile. After Kong Linfeng had seated himself, he spoke, “Demon-suppressing Envoy Li Cheng has signed up for the three trials of the Pill Artifact Array. You know about that, don’t you?”
Linfeng rose again and bowed, “Replying to Emperor Xuankong, this person is unmatched in the Pill Artifact Array. In all three paths, he could be referred to as a future Supreme.”
A group of ministers had astonished expressions; they couldn’t believe that the Emperor of the mighty Kongqian Heaven Dynasty would offer such high praise!
But recalling the scene of Li Cheng practicing alchemy earlier, calling him the Supreme Alchemy Dao was not at all an exaggeration.
Those artifact refining techniques were simply beyond imagination.
As for artifact refining and formation, most people were not optimistic, just as had been mentioned earlier; having spent so much time and energy studying alchemy, how could one have spare time to delve into artifact refining and formation?
Even if one could dabble in them, mastering them would be difficult, let alone reaching the same heights as in alchemy.
“Please sit down, he has already entered the artifact refining field. Let us watch and see!” Emperor Xuankong said with a chuckle, refraining from judgment and keeping an open mind.
Within the artifact refining field, Li Cheng arrived at the area designated for the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty and casually took out materials sufficient for refining two thousand high-quality divine artifacts.
“King of Kongqian, the man from your Kongqian Heaven Dynasty had previously produced one thousand Divine Monarch Pill materials in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, with a surprisingly high quality at that. Now, he has taken out materials for two thousand high-quality divine artifacts; does he intend to refine two thousand high-quality divine artifacts all at once?” a minister asked.
Originally, the ministers in the area all wanted to say that it was a fool’s dream, but thinking of the earlier alchemy scene, no one wanted to stick their neck out and instead chose to wait and see.
Although no one spoke out, deep down, no one was optimistic.
To everyone’s surprise, Kong Linfeng sighed.
A sigh? It seemed that Li Cheng was only proficient in alchemy and not in artifact refining.
After the sigh, Kong Linfeng spoke, “It’s a pity that my Kongqian Heaven Dynasty has limited resources, so I could only gather five thousand Divine Monarch Pill materials and ten thousand high-quality divine artifact materials to give him, and these materials have to last until the end of the competition, so Li Cheng has to save and use them sparingly.”
“Otherwise, right now he would definitely be refining ten thousand high-quality divine artifacts.”
Eh?
Kong Linfeng’s words left the group of ministers dumbfounded—this was a declaration of poverty!
But it also implied that the previous creation of one thousand Divine Monarch Pills was not Li Cheng’s limit, and neither was the current refining of two thousand divine artifacts.
As they spoke, Li Cheng had already begun refining.
Divine Fire surged, rapidly refining all materials until only the essence remained, which was then rapidly combined.
This scene, projected everywhere, appeared to most observers just like Li Cheng’s alchemy—equally fast and equally astonishing.
In almost the same amount of time it took to refine the Divine Monarch Pills, two thousand longswords that looked exactly alike came into existence!
Upon closer inspection, it was clear that each sword had formed eight hundred thousand Divine Patterns, without any variation.
Seeing the two thousand identical high-quality divine artifact longswords, the entire Xuankong Imperial City erupted into excitement once again.
In the Xuankong Domain with its tens of thousands of divine dynasties and countless talents, who had ever seen such artifact refining?
What was even more astonishing was that this person could mass-produce both divine pills and divine artifacts, using little time and yielding high-quality products.
The Imperial City was abuzz once more!
Inside the palace, the group of ministers were also exclaiming in amazement.
“This is practically mass production, and these identical high-quality divine artifacts can have miraculous effects with certain sword techniques and formations!”
“The total value of this batch of high-quality divine artifacts is at least two billion Divine Stones, but the costs are just a few tens of millions, which means Li Cheng can earn that much in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea?”
“Speaking of value, that batch of divine pills is worth even more, especially those King Grade Divine Monarch Pills, which are truly priceless!”
“Does this mean that, given enough materials, he could create an unimaginable amount of wealth in a short period of time?”
…
The more the group of ministers talked, the more excited they became, and the more outlandish their discussion.
Emperor Xuankong didn’t interrupt them and turned to Kong Linfeng, “Linfeng, such an extraordinary individual must be an Ascender, right?”
Kong Linfeng nodded; surely you’ve already investigated thoroughly. Asking now, are you trying to poach him?
“This person’s skills in both alchemy and artifact refining are indeed unmatched, to call him a future Supreme is no exaggeration. But exactly because of this, his stage is destined to go far beyond the Xuankong Domain.”
Hearing Emperor Xuankong’s words, Kong Linfeng nodded again, very aware that this was laying the groundwork for poaching.
“I plan to send a message to the Mansion Venerable, to recommend this person to him. What are your thoughts on this, Linfeng?” Emperor Xuankong added.
Kong Linfeng’s eyes revealed surprise; he knew Emperor Xuankong wanted to recruit, yet he didn’t expect him not to keep Li Cheng for himself, but to recommend him to Land Puppet Mansion!
Although the Xuankong Domain was under Emperor Xuankong’s rule, above the Xuankong Domain was none other than the Venerable of the Land Puppet Mansion.
After a slight contemplation, Kong Linfeng said, “Although reluctant to let him go, I also don’t want to see Li Cheng buried in my Kongqian Heaven Dynasty. He truly deserves a broader stage. Moreover, after today, Evil Demons will definitely try to recruit him, or even attempt to seize his body.”
“His safety can hardly be assured in my Kongqian Heaven Dynasty; if he could go to Land Puppet Mansion, it would naturally be for the best.”
Emperor Xuankong smiled, gesturing towards Kong Linfeng with a laugh, “I’ve always admired your vision. Let’s proceed with this plan then!”
