Artifact Forging Master Association
Yang Ning really wanted to ask why one couldn't cultivate more unparalleled Peerless Divine Abilities before Body Refinement Realm, and what would happen if they did.
But this wasn't the time to ask these questions, so Yang Ning had to swallow his doubts for now.
"If it's to see young friend Yang, then we should indeed gather everyone together!" someone said.
This person has a full head of white hair, regular eyebrows and eyes, and a very imposing appearance. If he were in a fantasy drama, he would basically play a role like the head of the Shu Mountain sect or the head of the Emei sect.
He was the first to speak, as if he held a lot of authority.
"This is Senior Xu Guiyuan of Tian Dao Peak!" Li Yuan introduced, "Tian Dao Peak is the mountain where our senior brother, Tian Dao Yi, resides!"
"Oh, greetings, Senior Xu!" Yang Ning quickly greeted him, then looked at Xu Guiyuan with expectant eyes, wondering if there would be a gift or something.
There are seven thousand people here, so wouldn't this wave be able to collect seven thousand kinds of crops?
Xu Guiyuan did indeed intend to give a gift, mainly because Yang Ning was only 12 and a half years old this year. He was the hope of Artifact Forging Master, the savior, and was still young and loved by everyone. It would be really inappropriate not to give him a gift.
But before he could even take out his things, Li Yuan spoke up, "Senior Xu, besides letting everyone get to know Yang Ning, there's another reason for this gathering, which was also proposed by Yang Ning: to establish an Artifact Forging Master Association!"
"The Artifact Forging Master Association?" Xu Guiyuan blinked. "What do you mean?"
I've already forgotten about the gift.
"Who in the family would understand? It's mullet roe, real shrimp head." Yang Ning curled his lip, looked at Li Yuan, and didn't feel sorry for him.
"Yang Ning, you speak!" Li Yuan stepped aside.
The main problem is that he knows nothing about Patent Law except for that.
Moreover, he only knew one Patent Law that could make money, and he didn't know anything about the others.
Therefore, it is up to Yang Ning, the one who brought it up, to speak.
"Then shall I say a few words?" Yang Ning asked.
No one in the audience objected; they all wanted to hear what this astonishing weapon-refining genius would have to say.
"The Artifact Forging Master Association is my vision—an intermediary organization that lies between sects and Artifact Forging Master, providing services, consultation, communication, supervision, fairness, self-discipline, and coordination for Artifact Forging Master," Yang Ning said. "It can also help promote the development and standardization of the Artifact Forging Master industry, improve the professional status and level of Artifact Forging Master, and strengthen connections and exchanges among Artifact Forging Master, promoting collaboration and cooperation."
The Artifact Forging Master Association has five specific functions:
1. Industry promotion and publicity: Showcase the value and role of Artifact Forging Master through various channels, and promote the development trend and prospects of the Artifact Forging Master industry.
2. Supervision and Standardization: Formulate relevant industry norms and standards based on the actual situation of the Artifact Forging Master industry, and supervise the behavior and skill level of Artifact Forging Master to ensure the safety and quality of the Artifact Forging Master industry.
3. Professional Training and Certification: Provide professional development training and certification opportunities for Artifact Forging Master, continuously improving their skills and levels to adapt to the ever-evolving industry.
4. Information exchange and cooperation: Establish channels for communication and exchange among Artifact Forging Master, promote the recognition and sharing of Artifact Forging Master's experience and skills, and strengthen cooperation among Artifact Forging Master to jointly complete more complex and high-level weapon refining tasks.
5. Promoting Industry Innovation and Development: Establishing a sound mechanism for protecting the rights and interests of inventors can incentivize Artifact Forging Master to create more advanced technologies and higher-quality products. Simultaneously, this system allows others to view patent applications, draw inspiration from them, and make improvements. All of these factors contribute to technological development, accelerate technological progress, and enhance market competitiveness.
Although Yang Ning had a reputation, he was still quite old, and many people were just watching the show. But when he revealed these important skills and abilities, all the Artifact Forging Master looked at each other in surprise. They thought he sounded really impressive!
But
"How exactly is this achieved?" Xu Guiyuan asked. "For example, the first point, industry promotion—how is it done? What are the benefits of promotion?"
"We'll discuss the methods of promotion later. As for the significance of promotion," Yang Ning asked, "What level of Law Artifact can Master Xu refine?"
"I can refine Dao Artifact Embryo at most!" Xu Guiyuan said proudly.
Yang Ning turned to look at Li Yuan: "What is a 'method embryo'?"
"It's the embryo of Law Artifact. Whether it's a treasure artifact or a Dao artifact, besides being forged into shape, it also needs the baptism of a long time!" Li Yuan said, "Treasure artifacts need to absorb treasure light, and Dao artifacts need to absorb Dao essence. These are not the work of Artifact Forging Master. Therefore, the highest level of magical Law Artifact Forging Master can forge is the embryo of a Dao artifact!"
"I understand!" Yang Ning nodded, then looked at Xu Guiyuan: "So Master Xu's weapon-refining skills are quite high!"
Xu Guiyuan nodded modestly. Self-praise is not true praise; it's when others say you're awesome that you're truly awesome.
"On average, how long does it take Master Xu to refine a Dao Artifact Embryo, and how many can he refine each year?" Yang Ning asked.
"That's a Dao Artifact Embryo, how can it be refined so quickly!" Xu Guiyuan said irritably, "It would be good if we could refine one in ten years!"
"So you can refine one every ten years?" Yang Ning asked.
"Where would so many people need Dao artifacts!" Xu Guiyuan was even more speechless. This child may be a genius, but his cultivation level was too low, and many of his questions were idiotic. "I have cultivated for over three thousand years, and I have only refined two Dao artifacts in total!"
"Isn't this a waste of time?!" Yang Ning said, "Three thousand years is enough to forge three hundred pieces, but you only forged two. That means you lost 298 pieces. How much can a Dao artifact sell for?"
Li Yuan said, "Even a low-grade Dao Artifact Embryo is worth hundreds of millions of Three Yang Pills!"
"In other words, you've lost 29.8 billion Sanyang Pills!" Yang Ning said seriously.
"What do you know!" Xu Guiyuan fumed, puffing out his beard. "The Tian Dao Yi doesn't need that many Dao artifacts, and I've only been able to refine Dao Artifact Embryo in the last four hundred years!"
Yang Ning asked, "That's still a loss of 3.8 billion, and since Senior Brother Tian Dao Yi can't use it, what about the others?"
"Others have Artifact Forging Master!"
"They can all refine Dao Artifact Embryo?"
"That's impossible!"
"Then why don't they train with you?"
"They have their own Artifact Forging Master!"
"Their Artifact Forging Master can't refine it, so why don't they pay you to refine it? Is it because you don't need Sanyang Pill?" Sanyang Pill are a kind of currency used in the mid-to-high level of Qi Refining. One pill is worth the same as one thousand low-grade Spirit Stone, or one hundred mid-grade Spirit Stone, ten high-grade Spirit Stone, or one top-grade Spirit Stone.
Xu Guiyuan, his beard bristling and eyes wide, exclaimed, "Who doesn't need the Sanyang Pill?!"
Even if my cultivation stagnates, I still have a wife and children!
"Or is it that they don't need Dao artifacts, or are you the Artifact Forging Master for Senior Brother Tian Dao Yi, so you can't refine artifacts for others?" Yang Ning asked again, "I remember Artifact Forging Master can take on private jobs, right?"
The position of Artifact Forging Master was originally a means for Taiheng to provide his disciples with to make money; how could they not take on private jobs?
As for the claim that inner disciple don't lack Dao artifacts, that's even more unreliable. Which inner disciple doesn't lack Dao artifacts? Everyone wants them!
One problem after another came up, and Xu Guiyuan was initially quite angry, but gradually he started to find it rather strange.
That's right, I can refine Dao Artifact Embryo, so why doesn't anyone ask me to train with them?
"You don't know?" Yang Ning looked at Xu Guiyuan's puzzled expression and smiled, "Let me guess. Perhaps it's because others don't know that you can refine Dao Artifact Embryo. Is that possible?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Xu Guiyuan nodded immediately. Although he had deliberately shown off his ability to refine Dao Artifact Embryo, not many people knew about it because of his small social circle.
"Perhaps others don't know that you're willing to refine Dao Artifact Embryo for others. They might even think you only refine them for the Tian Dao Yi Sect. Is that possible?" Yang Ning asked again.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Xu Guiyuan nodded again. That was the Tian Dao Yi, who had dominated the sect for over a thousand years.
Moreover, this person has a strong and domineering personality, and very few people know whether his Artifact Forging Master allow him to take on private jobs.
"See, this is the point of publicity!" Yang Ning spread his hands. "If everyone knew that you were willing to refine Dao embryos for others, wouldn't you be able to earn a lot more Sanyang Pill?"
Xu Guiyuan nodded thoughtfully, "That seems to make sense!"
"Even the best wine needs advertising, and as Artifact Forging Master, we certainly need to promote ourselves too!" Yang Ning said with a smile.
Xu Guiyuan suddenly became interested in this association. "So, according to you, Artifact Forging Master can help me promote it?"
"Indeed!" Yang Ning nodded. "Moreover, the effect of our publicity has exceeded your expectations. While it may not be known to everyone, at least those who want to refine Dao artifacts will know about it!"
"If it's really possible, why shouldn't I join your so-called association!" Xu Guiyuan nodded. He was already over three thousand years old; any other Qi Refining Fourth Level would have died long ago.
The reason I've lived this long is entirely due to the Tian Dao Yi's extension of lifespan, but it has reached its limit.
Even if the sect issues new regulations, he no longer has the energy to practice another Peerless Divine Abilities. Now he just wants to use the few days he has left to make more money to leave a legacy for his descendants.
If this Artifact Forging Master Association can help him earn more money, then he definitely wants to join!
