Shuanghu Island.
Magical Equipment Research Institute.
“Patriarch, this is it.”
Chen Daochu pointed at the machine in front of him, which was about ten feet long and had a metallic luster, and introduced it excitedly.
Chen Daoxuan silently walked forward and gently stroked the magical tool in front of him.
As a fourth-tier weapon craftsman, Chen Daoxuan could easily tell that this was only a first-tier superior-grade magic tool from the spiritual aura emitted by the magic tool machine tool in front of him.
However, its function was not as simple as a high-grade Level One magic tool. When Chen Daochu saw Chen Daoxuan stroking the results of their magical equipment research institute’s painstaking efforts, the pride on his face was hard to suppress.
Patriarch, you should know that when you invented the Harmonious Spirit Stove, it only solved one of the difficult problems in the creation of magic tools. Refining, shaping, and fusing, these three major steps were the basic steps for the creation of almost all magic tools.
The Harmonious Spirit Stove had only replaced the Armament Master and completed the first step.
As for the subsequent shaping and fusing of the array, it still had to be completed with the help of the Armament Master!”
Chen Daochu paused.” For so many years, it has been difficult for the Chen family to gain a foothold in the high-level magical equipment market in the Infinite Star Sea, except that the family has no plans to enter the high-level magical equipment market on a large scale.
There was another important reason, and that was the scarcity of high-grade Armament Masters.”
Hearing this, Chen Daoxuan nodded.
Not everyone was like him, who could use the Primordial Enlightenment Scripture to increase their comprehension and thus quickly increase their Weapon Refinement Master grade.
Although with the Harmonious Spirit Stove, the Chen Clan and the cultivators of the affiliated forces had increased the grade of their Armament Masters greatly.
Except, first and second tier low level Armament Masters were still alright. However, to become a third, fourth, or even fifth tier Armament Master, not only did it require a large amount of practice, but it also required the cultivator to have sufficient talent in Armament Refining.
This was also the reason why Huyan Chi’s love for talent rose when he first met Chen Daoxuan.
It was really not easy to find good seedlings with talent in refining weapons.
Even if the Chen family’s current strength was astonishing, their influence was only concentrated in Cangzhou.
It was not easy to find a large number of artifact refining geniuses among the tens of millions of cultivators in Cang Prefecture.
As for the refining method of Guanhai Immortal City, it used the Harmonious Spirit Stove to cooperate with the refining master.
Over the years, the Chen family’s Harmonious Spirit Stove had been continuously improved and had already developed to the fourth generation.
In other words, the Chen Family’s current highest grade Harmonious Spirit Stove could already refine fourth grade spirit ores, but correspondingly, the Chen Family’s fourth grade Armament Masters were few and far between.
In the Chen Clan, only Chen Daoxuan and Chen Daochu had reached the level of fourth rank Armament Masters.
Among the group of cultivators attached to the Chen Clan, a batch of armament refining geniuses had emerged in recent years, but the nurturing period was too short after all. After so many years of the Chen Clan’s painstaking nurturing, only three of them had reached the standard of fourth rank Armament Masters.
Altogether, there were only five fourth rank Armament Masters belonging to the Chen Clan. As for fifth rank Armament Masters, there wasn’t even one.
Under normal circumstances, even Nascent Souls would have to suck up to a Fifth Tier Weapon Refinement Master.
Although the Chen family was powerful, they were still unable to recruit a weapon craftsman of this grade.
In the Infinite Star Sea, every Fifth Level Weapon Refinement Master was a famous person, such as Perfected Lord Yuanchen and Huyan Chi, the Palace Master of the Weapon Refinement Palace of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.
How could the Chen family recruit such a person?
It could be said that among all the Nascent Soul Stage families in the Infinite
Star Sea, the number of fourth-rank blacksmiths owned by the Chen Family was relatively large.
However, how could five fourth ranked Armament Masters cooperate with the Harmonious Spirit Stove to mass produce fourth ranked Magic Tools?
Even if five fourth rank Armament Masters could raise the efficiency of
Armament Refining by tens of times, that was only equivalent to having dozens of fourth rank Armament Masters.
Wanting to rely on dozens of fourth-tier refiners to dominate the high-tier magical equipment market in the Infinite Star Sea was simply a dream.
In reality.
In the Infinite Star Sea, the market for high-level magic tools had always been dominated by the Refining Hall of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.
That’s right, although the major cultivation families lacked fourth-tier craftsmen, in the Qian Yuan Sword Sect, fourth-tier craftsmen were not scarce.
On the contrary, the Qianyuan Sword Sect had a large number of fourth grade Armament Masters. They lacked the number of fifth grade Armament Masters.
The Chen family could indeed occupy a place in the high-end magical equipment market of the Infinite Star Sea by relying on the five fourth rank Armament Masters and the assembly line of the Melting Spirit Stove. However, they definitely didn’t have the ability to monopolize it.
In addition, entering the market for high-grade magical artifacts was equivalent to snatching food from the mouth of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.
With the Chen family’s previous low-key development strategy, they would never do such a stupid thing.
Now, the Chens had the ability to take a share of the high-level magical equipment market in the Infinite Star Sea, but Chen Daoxuan did not intend to do so.
Compared to the resource-poor Infinite Star Sea, he had a better market.
The only thing restricting him now was that the Chen family’s production capacity of high-level magic tools was insufficient.
And this deficiency was reflected in the lack of high-grade Armament Masters, not the lack of Harmonious Spirit Stoves.
This problem was very difficult to solve.
Unless the Chen family could invent a magical tool machine tool that could completely replace the refiners and allow the production of magical tools to enter the mechanized era.
However, it was easier said than done.
For so many years, Chen Daoxuan had not only been fiddling with the magical tool machine tool in his spare time, but he had also asked the Chen family’s magical tool research institute to study it non-stop.
However, there was no result.
It wasn’t like the Magical Equipment Research Institute hadn’t produced significant results. For example, the Spiritual Talisman Photolittering Machine that could automatically produce Spiritual Talismans was a magical equipment that could automatically produce Spiritual Talismans..
