Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord Gets Cyberbullied!
It has to be said, the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord has really gotten himself into trouble this time!
The most common thing people said across the Four Continents was that Chu Xinghe compensated seven times the amount. We don't know if it's because there's an unspoken understanding among the strong that they don't need to communicate, but in the end, all the strong people admitted that Chu Xinghe compensated seven times the amount!
But only the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord!
The moment the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord uttered his claim of eight times the amount, all the bigwigs were furious!
You Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord!
You're not telling the truth at all now, are you?
You Heavenly Secrets Evil Spirits Division claim to possess Heavenly Secrets Secret Arts? You've got nothing to offer!
Chu Xinghe clearly compensated you seven times, but you, Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord, think you can get away with paying eight times?
Do you want us to curse your ancestors eight times over?
Immediately, many influential figures came out to greet the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord scoundrel who spouted nonsense!
Even the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord was stunned by the scolding...
No... isn't eating twice as much enough? Are you guys really this ruthless with your own resources?
The White Spirit Evil Lord responded immediately to the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord's statement!
The White Spirit Evil Lord claims he's known the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord since childhood. This guy claims to have learned some Heavenly Secrets Secret Arts, but it's all bullshit!
He's never told a single truth since he was a kid!
I, White Spirit Evil Lord, am putting this out there: his claim of eight times the compensation is absolutely a lie. Otherwise, I can sign Heavenly Dao Contract with Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord. If eight times is a lie, Tian Ji Xie Heavenly Dao will be annihilated into dust by the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord on the spot. If eight times is not a lie, I, White Spirit Evil Lord, will be annihilated into dust by the Heavenly Dao on the spot. You tell me if you dare!
It has to be said that with White Spirit Evil Lord's speech and even his demand for a Heavenly Dao Contract, wow, for the first time, White Spirit Evil Lord has gained the support of all the big shots across the Four Continents!
In an instant, not only White Spirit Evil Lord, but all the big shots declared that not only White Spirit Evil Lord, but all of them dared to sign this Heavenly Dao Contract!
If the eightfold increase is not a lie, we are all willing to die. If the eightfold increase is a lie, then you, Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord, shall die. Come, come... we have prepared the Heavenly Dao Contract. Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord, do you dare to sign it?
For a moment, the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord felt like he was being isolated.
You bastards, listen to yourselves! Are you even speaking human language?
That eight times is definitely a lie...
They're offering ten times the compensation...
In this situation... this Heavenly Dao Contract is clearly a trap for me...
The Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord says, "This is so hard! Sometimes, you have to be a little greedy. If you're not greedy enough, you might become isolated!"
You guys are all reporting up to seven times the amount, and I reported eight times. Am I being ostracized?
The Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord silent... because he knew that when everyone in the world starts lying, no one will believe you even if you tell the truth now!
Faced with the silent Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord, various parties commented, "Just wait and see... Is the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord too afraid to speak?"
Why is he afraid to speak?
Because he felt guilty! Because he knew he was lying!
As the saying goes, only more lies can defeat lies. This time, all the big shots across the Four Continents really taught the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord a lesson!
Therefore, the compensation from Vast Heaven Holy Land was ultimately set at seven times... Now, anyone who comes will receive seven times the compensation. Anyone who dares to say it's not seven times the compensation will suffer the same fate as the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord!
Chu Xinghe didn't care whether the compensation was seven or eight times the amount...
Previously, the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord had come to the Vast Heaven Holy Land demanding that the Grand Elder announce a tenfold compensation notice. This time, the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord declared, "I'm not going to take this anymore!"
I'm going to drag them all down with me!
However, the Grand Elder immediately rejected this request!
The Grand Elder said, "Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord, you still don't know why you've been isolated!"
Is this a matter of how many times the compensation will be paid?
That's because you're a snob!
Under such circumstances, how could a shrewd person like the Grand Elder possibly make such a public statement? The Grand Elder stated that the Vast Heaven Holy Land does not lie, but the Vast Heaven Holy Land also does not offend anyone.
Good heavens! All the bigwigs from all the powers across the Four Continents are saying it's seven times, and now I, Vast Heaven Holy Land, am saying it's ten times? Am I crazy?
Will I step in and slap all the big shots in the face?
Do you think I would do something like that?
So the Grand Elder immediately ordered someone to see the guest out, allowing the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord to leave!
Upon leaving the Vast Heaven Holy Land, the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord suddenly felt that this world was truly not worth it!
Why does nobody believe this, to be honest?
But thinking about it carefully, something doesn't seem right... I don't think I've been telling the truth either...
Because even eight times is a lie...
So lies... can really be deadly sometimes!
Chu Xinghe n't care how the Heavenly Secrets Evil Lord was cyberbullied. All he knew was that Ouyang Ming's efficiency was a bit too high.
It's only been a few days since Lao Tzu spoke, and Ouyang Ming has already made new progress?
Good heavens! Just then, Ouyang Ming was holding a pale gold plate, and without him even saying a word, Chu Xinghe knew that the next thing he was going to say was definitely some damn good news!
Moreover, even without looking at Ouyang Ming's facial expression, just by looking at the golden plate in Ouyang Ming hand, you can tell that this thing has definitely been upgraded!
It was silver before, now it's gold, so hopefully they won't make any dark gold or something like that next, right?
"Senior Brother Xinghe... it's all settled!"
Ouyang Ming, holding a golden plate, started cutting fruit without warning.
As the fruit was cut open, it was placed on both the golden plate and the previously Light of Xinghe Silver Plate.
A moment later, both plates emitted a golden light at the same time. However, it was obvious that the golden light on the new golden plate that Ouyang Ming brought was much brighter than that on the previous silver plate!
At the same time, all these shimmering lights penetrated into the fruit.
As the light faded, Ouyang Ming picked up the gold and silver fruits and presented them to Chu Xinghe.
Without saying a word, Chu Xinghe took the fruit that appeared on the golden plate from Ouyang Ming's hand!
What the heck? Why did you choose gold?
Have you ever wondered what the silver plate was used for in the Vast Heaven Holy Land?
That's for feeding pigs... no... it's for feeding monsters...
I was so focused on Ouyang Ming 'Ouyang Ming golden plate that I almost forgot he kicked a monster away, then emptied its food bowl and used the silver plate to cut the other half of the fruit!
What the hell? You say this is disgusting?
In response, Ouyang Ming said, "So what? In the first few years, we even used the stone troughs in our pigsty..."
Leaving aside the effects of the Light of Xinghe Silver Plate for the moment, even Chu Xinghe could clearly feel that the Spirit Power contained in the Light of Xinghe Gold Plate was significantly greater than that of the Silver Plate after the fruit entered his mouth.
Meanwhile, Ouyang Ming enthusiastically suggested that Senior Brother Xinghe try this and compare it...
Chu Xinghe said there was no need... You can explain it to me, Senior Brother Xinghe, in detail. There's no need for this comparison!
Ouyang Ming then explained his experiences over the past few days in detail. Ouyang Ming stated that he had always believed Mu Bai was right, that he could refine pills with the same effect using lower-cost materials. So, wouldn't he, Ouyang Ming, be able to refine spiritual treasures with the same effect using even lower-grade materials?
Ouyang Ming had always believed that his idea was sound, but after these past few days, he realized what it meant to be awakened from a dream by a single word!
Alchemy and weapon crafting may seem similar, but they are actually quite different!
Because their uses are different!
The purpose of pills is mainly for single use, so when Mu Bai refines pills, he only needs to consider whether the pill can exert a sufficient medicinal effect after being consumed once.
If the efficacy is similar, then using lower-grade materials can definitely achieve the effect of saving costs.
Doesn't it sound like weapon forging is similar?
However, after Ouyang Ming actually conducted the experiment, he discovered that the opposite was true; these two seemingly identical things were actually completely different!
Alchemy is for one-time use; once the medicinal effect is sufficient, it's done.
However, weapon crafting is different. Not everyone is a disciple of the Vast Heaven Holy Land and can obtain a spiritual treasure that matches them at each different stage. Even if they can't find one, they can have Senior Brother Ouyang tailor-make one for them.
Even if it's lost, it can be rebuilt.
For most cultivators, a good spiritual treasure can be used for almost a lifetime. Therefore, in this case, not only should the power of the spiritual treasure be considered, but more importantly, its durability!
Ouyang Ming carefully examined his previous magical artifacts and found that although the effects of the artifacts he had crafted were not significantly different after saving on materials, their durability had still been somewhat reduced.
Moreover, under certain extreme conditions, the damage rate of spiritual treasures can increase exponentially!
Upon discovering this, Ouyang Ming broke out in a cold sweat!
Because Ouyang Ming knew that he had gone down the wrong path!
If I were to continue researching in this direction, and all the spiritual treasures Future by the Vast Heaven Holy Land were to be damaged or malfunction, what would be the point of me even attempting to reach the Concept Level?
I'm not even worthy of being a weapon refiner!
Ouyang Ming immediately corrected the mistake, using higher-grade materials instead. Although the resulting magical treasures looked similar, their durability and the power they displayed under extreme conditions were completely different!
Two seemingly identical spirit swords, one made of low-grade materials and the other of high-grade materials, will be evenly matched in the first thousand collisions. However, when they collide ten thousand times, the spirit sword made of the low-grade material will inevitably break. Even if a new spirit sword of the same quality made of low-grade materials is found and continues to collide with the spirit sword made of high-grade materials, the result will still be the same.
Alchemy can be a one-time thing, but the stability of weapon crafting is always the most important!
At this moment Ouyang Ming felt that he had truly grasped the essence of the game!
Senior Brother Xinghe knew I had gone astray, so he successfully helped me find the new path. Luckily, Senior Brother Xinghe, you said so early, otherwise I would have caused enormous losses to our Vast Heaven Holy Land!
Senior Brother Xinghe's move was a stroke of foresight, preventing a loss for our Vast Heaven Holy Land in advance for Ouyang Ming!
Chu Xinghe was completely dumbfounded by what Ouyang Ming said!
No... Ouyang Ming, this is supposed to be about the golden plate, where the hell did you get this idea?
And if you're going to start pulling, fine, but what's with the knife while you're pulling?
Wasn't your attack a bit too sudden?
