Artifact Forging Masters Assemble
Li Yuan's face showed visibly excited expression. "Then what should we do?"
"Of course it's a secret!" Yang Ning said. "The technology for making mobile phones must be kept secret. Otherwise, if you can do it, others can too. Today we open a company, tomorrow countless people will be imitating us!"
"It's hard to stop that!" Li Yuan frowned. "My weapon-refining skills aren't top-notch. What I can make, those master Artifact Forging Master can also make. They just need to get their hands on the phone and scan it with their Divine Sense to find out!"
"Therefore, you must mobilize the power of the Taiheng Sect!" Yang Ning said.
"How do I activate it?" Li Yuan looked bewildered. "If I were the First Senior Brother of the Tian Dao Yi, I definitely wouldn't have a problem, but I'm not!"
"It's simple. First, we need to unite all the Artifact Forging Master!" Yang Ning said. "After all, mobile phones need Artifact Forging Master to produce them, and this step will ensure that no one in the sect will counterfeit them!"
"Then why would they join us?" Li Yuan asked.
"Because we don't let them work for free. We pay them to produce the phones, and we regularly organize academic and technical exchanges internally. We can also jointly build a technology confidentiality platform. After all, the technology for mobile phones needs to be kept secret, and perhaps other Artifact Forging Master also have technologies that need to be kept secret. They could clearly make a lot of money with their technology, but they can only hide it because they are afraid of being copied!"
Yang Ning said, "Join us, and we'll keep your secrets together. I think we could call this organization the Taiheng Artifact Forgers Association, and even create a <Patent Law>. If you have a unique invention, you can apply for a patent with the association. Anyone who wants to make your thing will have to pay the inventor!"
"This Patent Law seems quite interesting!" Li Yuan said. "I remember that our country also has orders to reward inventors, but it was somewhat effective at first. Later, people found that the money they received for handing over their inventions would be quickly spent. However, if they kept their inventions and didn't hand them over, they could keep making money. In addition, there were problems with others claiming the inventions fraudulently and officials seizing others' inventions. Eventually, this policy became a mere formality. If there were an Artifact Forging Master Association, and everyone had a long lifespan, it could indeed ensure that this law would continue indefinitely!"
He was referring to the country of his birth.
"That makes perfect sense!" Patent Law can indeed breed patent trolls, and developed countries can use it to suppress the development of developing countries, but right now, the most developed country is Yang Ning!
This law will only be used to suppress others, not to be suppressed by others.
"But this law only applies to the people of Taiheng, not to other sects!" Li Yuan thought of another problem, "What if the people of the Tianyi Sect copy the phone?"
"Let him copy it!" Yang Ning laughed. "The Tianyi Sect doesn't need luck, so it'll be pure commercial competition. As long as we ensure our updates are faster and our products are better, the people will keep using ours! The Tianyi Sect can only control their subordinate forces at most!"
"That makes sense!" Li Yuan knew he couldn't ask for too much, after all, they had already received so many benefits.
"Then shall I gather the Artifact Forging Master now?" Li Yuan asked.
"Yes!" Yang Ning nodded. "We need to quickly establish the association, then mass-produce mobile phones and expand production directly. That way, even if the Tianyi Sect tries to copy them, they'll only be able to follow in our footsteps and eat our dust!"
"That's right!" Li Yuan's heart burned with excitement. He immediately took out a series of Identity Jade Token from his Storage Ring, saying, "Don't tell me you think these things are useless. I think they're useless too. I have a special area in my Storage Ring for storing identity tokens, piled up like a mountain!"
"Then everyone else should be no exception!" Yang Ning laughed. "Therefore, the appearance of the Deep Blue Phone is in accordance with the will of Heaven and the hearts of the people, and it is destined to be a hit!"
"Mhm!" Li Yuan nodded, then took out his nameplate and started sending messages one by one.
In an instant, all the disciples of the Taiheng Sect witnessed a phenomenon rarely seen in a thousand years: from all directions, on countless mountain peaks, Artifact Forging Master were flying towards Black Soul Peak, riding all sorts of strange and wonderful Spirit Artifact.
Many inner disciple also turned their attention to this, because their Artifact Forging Master had told them something before leaving.
Even if it wasn't explicitly stated, it's still a big deal for an inner disciple to suddenly summon all the Artifact Forging Master in the sect. What if this kid goes crazy and tries to kill all the Artifact Forging Master?
"Miss, I saw all the Artifact Forging Master in the sect heading towards Black Soul Peak!" Xiao Huan rushed back from outside to report the news to Lin Yuanxi.
"Black Soul Peak!" She knew Yang Ning's next stop was Black Soul Peak. Could this opportunity be related to Brother Ning?
"May Brother Ning have a carefree life and all his wishes come true!" The young woman didn't know what her lover was doing; all she could do was sincerely offer her blessings.
After a while, the central hall of Black Soul Peak was filled with people; a quick glance revealed a total of six or seven thousand!
Fun fact: Because pageboys are often chosen from among the most intelligent and quick-witted people in the country, they are also one step ahead in cultivation.
Even if the master is three points slower than the master at the beginning of the weapon refining process, if the master is stuck for two or three years due to comprehension or other reasons, the servant will catch up. Then the servant will break through to the Qi Refining Stage first, while the master will be stuck at the Body Refinement Realm due to insufficient talent and comprehension.
Therefore, the number of inner disciple in Taiheng is less than the Artifact Forging Master at the Qi Refining Realm.
"Except for those who are in seclusion, those who have reached a critical point in weapon crafting, and those who are out on the move, everyone else is here!" Seeing that it was almost noon, Li Yuan finally finished gathering everyone.
At that moment, he realized even more how convenient the new phone was; if something like this happened again, he could just send a message in the group chat.
"Shall you speak or should I?" Li Yuan asked.
"It's definitely you!" Yang Ning said. "I'm just a mere Body Refinement Realm, who would even give me a second glance?"
"You're mistaken!" Li Yuan said, pulling Yang Ning directly onto the platform, and then asked, "Does everyone know who this is?"
The Artifact Forging Master below were silent for a moment, then one of them tentatively asked, "Since you are only at the Body Refinement Realm, yet you stand above others, could it be that you are saying that all other skills are inferior, only weapon refining is of the highest caliber, young friend Yang Ning?"
"Wearing a white lab coat and glasses, and the appearance matches!"
"That must be him!"
"That's right!" Seeing that someone had already guessed it, Li Yuan: "This is Yang Ning, the savior of us Artifact Forging Master!"
"Savior? That's too much of an exaggeration!" Yang Ning quickly waved his hand. He was not worthy of such a heavy responsibility!
"I'm not making this up!" Li Yuan, "After I spread your words, everyone was quite moved. Moreover, the sect has also expressed its support, not only improving the treatment of Artifact Forging Master but also opening up some Peerless Divine Abilities for them. With these Peerless Divine Abilities, we Artifact Forging Master the hope of advancing to the Golden Core stage, or even the Spiritual Law Realm. If you're not the savior of Artifact Forging Master, then who is!"
"Is that so?" Yang Ning's eyes widened, and he transmitted his voice, "Then wouldn't Artifact Forging Master also need luck?"
"No need for that!" Li Yuan replied, "It seems you only know the eight great Divine Ability related to the Taiheng Sect Great Destiny Technique, but how could my Taiheng Sect, with its 300,000-year history, only have eight Peerless Divine Abilities?"
"Ah, this..." Yang Ning was taken aback. That makes sense!
"But how come I've never heard of this before?" Yang Ning asked.
"Because each person can only cultivate one Peerless Divine Abilities before reaching the Supernatural Power Realm!" Li Yuan said, "Cultivators after reaching the Supernatural Power Realm can cultivate more Divine Ability, but news of them is no longer circulated in the mortal world, so of course you wouldn't know!"
"Holy crap?"
Before Supernatural Power Realm, one can only cultivate one Peerless Divine Abilities. And I've cultivated seven?!
