To Hear the Dao in the Morning and Die at Night Was Enough!

Even Elder He had to admit that the Craft God was a genius...

The Craft God. In this case, in the eyes of many people, it would be reasonable for the Craft God to not make any further breakthroughs at the age of seventy, just twenty years later, right?

After all, breaking through to a new realm above the peak is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Many people spend their entire lives trying to break free from constraints, yet they never manage to do so.

But everyone was wrong; the Craft God wasn't simply to break through to the peak.

If we're just talking about breaking through to the peak, it might not be that difficult for Craft God. After all, your previous success rate was 90%. If you reach 90.0001%, then theoretically you've also broken through to the peak.

But what the Craft God wanted was not simply to break through to the peak; the Craft God was pursuing the legendary Dao!

If it were an ordinary person, even if they wanted to pursue that legendary Tao, it would probably take them a lifetime to find it.

But the Craft God realized in just twenty years that no matter how hard he tried in his life, it would be impossible for him to even touch the realm of the legendary Dao.

Over the past twenty years, the Craft God has come to understand that to touch the legendary Dao, what is needed is not a matter of how hard you work, but rather innate talent!

The God of Craft God is unprecedented in history; otherwise, he could not have become the first Divine Craftsman of weapon crafting.

But it was precisely because of his exceptional talent that the Craft God realized how far he was from the Dao!

When you stand at the foot of the peak and look up, no matter how high the peak is, you can eventually look up to it.

But when you stand atop the peak, gazing up at the heavens, you realize that the road to the summit is insurmountable.

Because he had reached the pinnacle, the Craft God knew that even with his unparalleled talent, there was no way he could ever climb the path ahead.

Just when the Craft God was almost in despair, he accidentally obtained the Art of Reversal, which allowed Craft God to see a completely new possibility.

By Art of Reversal to deprive others of their talent in weapon crafting and using it for one's own purposes, if enough talent is deprived, then one day, one can touch the realm of the Dao!

The Craft God was very excited when he first obtained the Art of Reversal. He wanted to follow this path, but he also knew the story of that evil Craft God.

The Craft God knew that if he used this method, even if he eventually succeeded in touching the Dao, it would not be tolerated by the Heavenly Dao. The final result would be that he would be destroyed by the Heavenly Dao. Moreover, not only would the Heavenly Dao destroy him, but Heavenly Dao would also punish all weapon refiners for this matter.

If it really comes to that, it will be the end of weapon refiners!

All weapon refiners will have a portion of their talent stripped away, and because of this, all weapon refiners in the world may never even have the chance to reach the pinnacle in their lifetime.

Therefore, the Craft God initially wanted to destroy the Art of Reversal, but in the end, Craft God preserved Art of Reversal.

And this was the beginning of the curse of the Craft God!

For countless years afterward, a voice in the Craft God's mind kept telling him that using the Art of Reversal to seize the talents of others was the only chance!

What the hell? You're saying that doing this will ultimately lead to being destroyed by the Heavenly Dao, so why would you choose this path?

If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening!

Some people pursue fame and fortune, relying on their own abilities to gain a good reputation, acquire vast wealth, and be surrounded by beautiful women!

But this world isn't just full of people who crave fame and fortune; there are also pure-hearted people. If the Craft God were truly someone who coveted fame and fortune, he couldn't have reached the pinnacle so easily.

The Craft God was a pure person who never cared about fame or fortune; all he cared about was the way of crafting weapons.

Therefore, for Craft God, to hear the Way in the morning and die in the evening is enough!

When you have seen and understood what the true Tao is, even if it is only for a moment, you will have no regrets!

But the Craft God understood that if he really did that, not only would all the weapon refiners in the world be stripped of their weapon-refining talents, but they would also be punished by the Heavenly Dao because of him.

This is why the Craft God, in collaboration with the Ning Clan, built this Craft God Mausoleum and chose to die.

Because the Craft God found that he was gradually losing control of the evil thoughts in his heart, he tried to destroy the Art of Reversal, but the Art of Reversal was already etched in his mind. He even sought out the Ning Clan to use the Clearing Technique to erase the memory of the Art of Reversal.

But nothing worked; even the Ning Clan's Clearing Technique couldn't erase the memory of the Art of Reversal.

Knowing that one day he would become a monster, a monster that would affect all Four Continents, the last shred of righteousness in his heart led him to end his life, and he used the Craft God Craft God Mausoleum and the Craft God Quenching Pool to forever suppress himself in the Craft God Mausoleum.

What he suppressed was not himself, but that evil thought!

Unfortunately, the Craft God ultimately failed, and his evil thoughts eventually transformed into the Curse Monster. The so-called Craft God Inheritance was not actually left behind by the Craft God, but by the Curse Monster.

From a certain perspective, the Curse Monster is actually the Craft God. The Craft God Craft God two sides, one righteous and one evil. The righteous God of Crafts wanted to protect all living beings at the cost of his life, and in the end, he took his own life. However, after his death, the evil Craft God was also revived, and the Curse Monster and the Craft God's Inheritance Spirit Orb were born in the Craft God Mausoleum.

Now, under the Clan Head Hua's unexplained combo attacks, the Curse Monster has devoured countless refining talents, and the Inheritance Spirit Orb has reached a level where its skill is close to the Dao.

Killing the Curse Monster now might be possible, but once the Curse Monster dies, all the talents within the Craft God's Inheritance Spirit Orb will be released instantly.

At that time, these talents will not return to their masters, but will return to the Heavenly Dao.

Heavenly Dao will not have any other outcome for those who dare to steal natural talent in an attempt to attain the Dao; it will only directly punish them.

If that were to happen, virtually all weapon refiners across the Three Continents would be punished together, with a portion of their talent forcibly taken away by the Heavenly Dao.

What the hell? You're saying that Heavenly Dao's way of doing things is completely unreasonable?

When has the Heavenly Dao ever acted with reason? Heavenly Dao doesn't even possess the concept of emotion. If you were a normal person, you'd think this was done by Curse Monster, and once the Curse Monster dies, that's the end of it, right?

But Heavenly Dao doesn't see it that way. Heavenly Dao believes that there are weapon refiners in this world who want to challenge its authority.

Because you're asking if your stolen talent is even in the Craft God Inheritance Spirit Orb, right?

What the heck? You're saying your talent was stolen by the Inheritance Spirit Orb?

Brother... when you went to gamble with the Curse Monster, was it forced upon you by Heavenly Dao? It was your own choice, okay?

So theoretically speaking, shouldn't the talent that was absorbed by the Inheritance Spirit Orb also belong to what you willingly gave up?

Therefore, your talent is also contained within the Inheritance Spirit Orb. Don't you bear some responsibility for this attempt to challenge the Heavenly Dao? Can you really escape it?

Regardless of whether Heavenly Dao is reasonable or not, as long as the Curse Monster is defeated, all the weapon refiners in the Three Continents, and even those in the Evil Shadow Continent, will probably be unable to escape.

Even if you're wronged, can you really be wronged by a weapon refiner from the Evil Shadow Continent?

At least you participated a little. The weapon refiners from the Evil Shadow Continent were completely unaware of what was happening and were just taken care of. Those were truly unlucky.

Elder He immediately summoned the heads of all the palaces of Vast Heaven Holy Land at the Spirit Crane Palace, and this time even Holy Lord Gu Mingchao came.

Holy Lord Gu Mingchao said that he had been lacking inspiration lately, and if this problem could be resolved, wouldn't inspiration come naturally?

All the bigwigs of the Vast Heaven Holy Land gathered at the Spirit Crane Palace, Elder He also had Wu Man recount the whole story of cause and effect to all the bigwigs of the Vast Heaven Holy Land.

Chu Xinghe was stunned after hearing what Wu Man said!

No way... we didn't participate in this whole thing, does the Heavenly Dao have any shame?

Can you tolerate the Misfortune Compass? Aren't you going to jump out and confront the Heavenly Dao head-on?

This Heavenly Dao is even more unreasonable than your Misfortune Compass!

To be honest, Chu Xinghe has been very happy these past few days!

The joy was off the charts! Because Chu Xinghe truly didn't know how he could lose this game!

Ever since all the spiritual treasures of our Vast Heaven Holy Land were put into the Quenching Pool for refining, they've all exploded!

All the magical artifacts are now under a curse and are completely unusable.

Chu Xinghe remarked that he had already analyzed this before: why does he always seem to be losing big, but then he ends up making a huge profit?

The reason is simple: I made too many moves!

Every single time, it was my own excessive actions that gave the Misfortune Compass an opportunity to exploit!

But this time, I, Chu Xinghe, will stay in the Vast Heaven Holy Land. All I need to do is keep an eye on that bastard Ouyang Ming, and then leave all the operations to the Clan Head Hua.

The Clan Head Hua can do whatever he wants. This time, Chu Xinghe won't say a word, and neither will I.

In this situation, tell me, don't they even have a chance to imagine the possibilities?

Looking at the Misfortune Compass spinning so fast it was practically sparking, Chu Xinghe thought to himself, "I really don't know how I'm going to lose this round!"

But after hearing what that Wu Man said, Chu Xinghe was so angry he almost peed his pants!

This is utterly Heavenly Dao; it's condemning everyone based on a single example!

This is truly a case of "better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free"!

What did my Junior Brother Ouyang do?

My Junior Brother Ouyang has been eating cold noodles obediently in our Vast Heaven Holy Land these past two days. He's eaten eight bowls of cold noodles, six bowls of braised pork, twelve braised pork hocks, thirty-eight slabs of braised pork ribs, thirty plates of vegetarian chicken, over twenty roast geese, two buckets of braised beef, over seventy roast chickens, over forty steamers of braised meat buns, two roasted demon beasts, and a cartload of roasted lamb chops...

My Junior Brother Ouyang didn't do anything!

Even the chefs of our Vast Heaven Holy Land aren't worried, so why is the Heavenly Dao so agitated?

This is ridiculous! My Junior Brother Ouyang didn't offend anyone, so why is he the one who gets punished in the end?

Is this any kind of reasoning?

My Junior Brother Ouyang was punished for just having a few bites of food at home?

Isn't this a bit too outrageous?

Just as Chu Xinghe was lamenting that his Junior Brother Ouyang had been caught in the crossfire, Ouyang Ming stepped forward!

"Now that things have come to this, it's time for me, Ouyang Ming, to step forward. Only I can turn the tide..."

Before Ouyang Ming could finish speaking, Elder He interrupted him, "Ouyang, it's too late for you to make a move now. The Craft God Inheritance Orb has absorbed too much of the talent of weapon refiners and is now almost at the level of a Daoist skill. Even if you make a move, there will be no other result except for having your talent absorbed again. Moreover, your talent is not as good as the Craft God's to begin with, so even if you make the first move, you are not guaranteed to win!"

Ouyang Ming: "..."

Ouyang Ming was completely dumbfounded... Wait... Elder He, does the Holy Mother of Wujiang have a particular fondness for straight men?

Otherwise, how did you manage to win over the Holy Mother, given how straightforward you are?

At least show some respect for Ouyang Ming when you speak...
