Tian Yuan War Chronicles: The Path of Artifacts to Ascension – Chapter 32

Ch 32: Space Artifact Crafting

After Hua Kong completed Foundation Establishment, everyone was in the mine shaft. Only Manager Ying noticed that he had left seclusion, so he came over to congratulate him a few times, and then went back to work.

At this time, they still had two years to complete the task of mining Void Stone, and everyone was showing signs of fatigue. Hua Kong was not pretentious, and took out the mining machine assigned to him and entered the mine shaft.

Two years later, Hua Kong felt quite tired of the busy mining work every day, but finally Manager Cao and others who came to change shifts also arrived.

After Hua Kong returned to Tian Yuan Sect, he called Lin Lan and Lin Yu to participate in his Foundation Establishment Ascension Banquet. Everyone had a great time playing, and life returned to calm.

Hua Kong also took leave to return to his home in Great Zhou once, but because Lin Lan and Lin Yu had just returned two years ago, he went back alone this time.

However, this time the Flying Boat was a slightly smaller Flying Boat borrowed from the Void Division. After encountering the initial setback in finding the Space Crack, Hua Kong spent more time and finally returned to Great Zhou.

What surprised him when he returned home was that the family business had grown quite large, and the tentacles of the Commerce had penetrated into the Divine Capital of Great Zhou.

Father and Elder Brother even had a relationship with the Great Zhou Royal Family. Everyone knew that his family’s Commerce was Hua Kong’s family business, and they were very polite to his family.

Hua Kong’s father and Elder Brother were even invited by the Royal Family to participate in some private banquets, and several people even established personal friendships.

Hua Kong brought Elixir and Spirit Grass to his family as usual, and his family also collected thousands of Void Stone for him, so that this strange stone has become very popular in Great Zhou.

More importantly, Hua Laodie brought him a message that these strange stones all came from around a large river in the Duanshan Mountain Range.

Hua Kong traced back along this big river, and sure enough, he found a large gathering of this strange stone.

Hua Kong was not in a hurry to collect these Void Stone, and searched upstream for thousands of kilometers, and sure enough, he found a Void Stone Mine Vein.

It’s just that Hua Kong is not a professional mineral exploration Disciple, and he doesn’t know anything about the origin and scale of this Void Stone Mine.

Moreover, there are Void Beasts in the Void Stone Mine in the Star Field. Hua Kong was a little worried, so he didn’t tell his family about it.

He only asked his family to send some people to collect Void Stone along the river, and warned them that there was danger upstream and they must not send people there.

At the same time, this matter also made Hua Kong feel embarrassed, considering whether to tell Tian Yuan Sect’s Void Division about this matter. This One Yang Realm was his hometown, and he was unwilling for Tian Yuan Sect to intervene too much.

But he was afraid that the existence of the Void Stone Mine here would eventually be discovered, and everyone would still go to mine it, and then release the Void Beast, which would harm One Yang Realm.

Finally, after returning to Tian Yuan Sect, he told Lin Lan and Lin Yu about this matter and asked them to make up their minds together.

After Hua Kong’s description, the two of them felt that it was necessary to report to the Void Division, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with if something happened, after all, Great Zhou was the foundation of the Lin Family.

In the end, Hua Kong reported to Manager Ying about the Void Stone Mine in his One Yang Realm, but unexpectedly, Manager Ying didn’t take it seriously.

Manager Ying told him that Void Stone Mines have been discovered in many places, but the scale is much smaller than the Void Stone Mines in the Star Field, and there are usually no Void Beasts.

Therefore, Manager Ying told him to mine with confidence, and the final Void Stone would belong to him.

This incident not only surprised Hua Kong, but even Lin Lan and Lin Yu were very surprised. The three of them stopped struggling and planned to make arrangements later.

After Hua Kong’s realm was promoted to the Foundation Establishment Stage, he began to participate in the creation of Space Magical Item in the Void Division. This was a new field for him, so he spent some more time studying it.

But after half a year of familiarity, Hua Kong discovered that the core of this craft was the depiction of Space Formation, which was indeed a new craft for him.

Although he had also engraved some simple Formations on Void Stone and Bird Shooting Tube before, it could only be regarded as imitating, just enough.

This time, he really couldn’t be careless, so he went to the Merit Law Hall of the Void Division and started learning the most basic Formations.

The Formation’s Formation Eye, Rune, Formation Pattern, Formation Flag and Talisman, Formation material selection, the activation and control of the Formation, the location selection of the Formation, etc., the knowledge in this is simply too numerous to mention.

Hua Kong honestly started learning from Rune and Formation Pattern. In addition to helping other colleagues every day, he spent the rest of his time practicing on stones with a carving knife or Talisman brush.

He spent more than two years on this level alone before Manager Ying was satisfied.

Formation Flag and Talisman are essentially small Formations. Except for the slightly different material selection and production methods, the others are not much different.

Formation material selection is also a major knowledge. If the attributes of the materials are not compatible or the combination is improper, the Formation effect will be poor at best, and the manipulator will be backlashed at worst. This level took another three years to pass.

As for the remaining knowledge of Formation activation and control, Formation location selection, etc., Manager Ying was not satisfied even when the ten-year rotation period of the Void Stone Mine arrived.

But these things can be helped by other colleagues, so now Hua Kong has begun to independently perform the maintenance and repair tasks of Flying Boat and Starship.

He can even make some Storage Magical Item himself. Although the quality is not as good as other colleagues, it is better than nothing. The most important thing is that everyone now regards him as a qualified Void Division labor force.

This made him very happy, so much so that Chen Wan joked that he had never seen anyone so happy to be a beast of burden.

In view of the profoundness of Formation, Hua Kong did not force it and began to study while cultivating.

The ten years of mining Void Stone in the Star Field were still mainly focused on cultivating Space Technique. Simple Void Blade, Space Crack, and Teleportation have been used relatively skillfully, and even more advanced Space Swamp can sometimes be used.

At the end of the ten-year mining mission, Hua Kong had not returned to Great Zhou for twenty years, so he asked Manager Ying for leave and went back once.

This time when he went back, the family’s Commerce and the Commerce newly opened by Lin Lan and Lin Yu had begun to jointly mine the Void Stone deep in the Duanshan Mountain Range.

The Void Stone mined by his family’s Commerce of course fell into his hands, while the Void Stone mined by Lin Lan and Lin Yu was partly sold to the Void Division and partly sold to the Tian Yuan Commerce led by Tian Yuan Sect.

This time when he went back, he not only accompanied his family, but also went to the northern border of Great Zhou at the invitation of Lin Lan and Lin Yu to check the situation of the Ningyuan Army and the deployment against the northern neighboring country of Zhao.

To his surprise, this army did not end up in the hands of Lin Yu’s Crown Prince Elder Brother, but was controlled by his younger brother Lin Can.

What shocked him even more was that when he drove the Flying Boat carrying the excited Prince Lin Can, who was bubbling with snot, and a group of Generals to observe the deployment on the opposite side, a Flying Boat also rose from the military camp on the opposite side, and the Flying Boat was actually printed with the Sword God Hall logo!

What the hell is going on? Are Great Zhou and the opposite Zhao Kingdom a system?

Of course, Hua Kong is no longer the little kid he used to be. Now, as a Mid-Cultivation, he is already an honored guest of the Great Zhou Royal Family, so of course he will not frivolously inquire about these things.

The other side was obviously also surprised to see the Artifact Refining Hall Void Division logo on his Flying Boat. They thought that Great Zhou had surrendered to someone else, so they sent a Sound Transmission to inquire. Of course, Hua Kong couldn’t pay attention to him and shook them off with an acceleration.

Hua Kong didn’t understand why Lin Yu still retained influence over the Mortal army. Could it be that he wanted to return to Great Zhou to be the Emperor? That’s impossible!

Old Ancestor Lin Lian and the others could not support him, a Cultivator, to return to One Yang Realm to be a Mortal Emperor.

Could it be that he hopes that his descendants will be Mortal Emperors? With the relationship between the two of them, Hua Kong couldn’t possibly not know if Lin Yu had children.

He, a Prince, is still alone. Hua Kong always feels that his plan is not that small, but Hua Kong doesn’t think he will do anything in One Yang Realm. Seven Yang World?

Thinking of this, Hua Kong was stunned! It’s really possible!

This is the only plan that Old Ancestor Lin Lian would support and would be very profitable!

With the Lin Family’s influence in Seven Yang World, it is not impossible to occupy a place and become independent. Although the Mortal kingdoms have also been divided by the Elders of Tian Yuan Sect.

However, in places where the competition with the other three major forces is fierce, there are still many cities and regions. Due to the relatively turbulent situation, they can only enter in the form of Commerce for the time being.

The local clans are all fence-sitters, and they stand on the side of whichever Sect is slightly better. This is undoubtedly a good opportunity for Old Ancestor Lin Lian.

The previous Lin Family may not have been weak in Seven Yang World, but there has never been a person like Lin Yu who is well-versed in worldly politics, so that although the Lin Family has produced Great Power in the Late Stage of Core Formation, they have never been able to obtain a base in Seven Yang World.

Now, the Lin Lan and Lin Yu siblings, one with superior talent and the other with a deep understanding of politics and military affairs, have a complete team in Great Zhou. If they occupy a city in Seven Yang World and slowly plan for it, the benefits will be far greater than fighting to the death in One Yang Realm.

Thinking of this, a light suddenly flashed in Hua Kong’s mind. Could he obtain a base in Seven Yang World?

Thinking of this, Hua Kong shook his head again. With his current strength, occupying a city in Seven Yang World can only rely on the Lin Family. He might as well help them first and then accumulate some experience and connections.

Hua Kong stopped thinking about it. He was originally a subject of Great Zhou. Even in Seven Yang World, the Lin Family’s power is much greater. It wouldn’t be embarrassing for him to rely on them.

Moreover, the Lin Family led him into the path of Cultivation. If he betrayed such great kindness, his reputation would inevitably be ruined, which is not a suitable choice.

Hua Kong made a decision in his heart that even if he became a retainer of the Lin Family, it would still be much better than his original situation. People should not be too greedy.

This time is probably to arrange for him to meet these people? Hua Kong felt a little helpless when he thought of this. Nothing can be established overnight.

Hua Kong was not disgusted with Lin Lan and Lin Yu’s arrangements. After all, with his relationship with them, they would not treat him badly.

After this matter was over, Hua Kong stayed in the military camp for a few more days. He became familiar with Prince Lin Can. Unlike Lin Yu’s calm and generous personality, this Prince Lin Can had more of a playboy atmosphere.

He even brought a group of Dancers and female musicians to this borderland. Whenever there was a banquet, there would be singing and dancing, which made the soldiers mesmerized.

During the banquet, he even wanted to give a team of Dancers to Hua Kong. Hua Kong, as a Cultivator, could not accept it, but he didn’t want to hurt his face, so he had to ask for two of them to be his Maids.

With this matter settled, Hua Kong returned home, selected some of the descendants in his family who had good character, left some Elixir and Cultivation Method for the Qi Refining Stage, and then returned to Tian Yuan Sect.
