The next moment they appeared beside the spirit-energy transfer bridge outside the capital of Jingping. Yun Chuxiu skipped and hopped, running toward the capital, and cried out in astonishment, "This Yuanmu tree has grown even bigger!
" Lian Huanhun frowned, raised her head to look at the little Yuanmu rooted in the capital of Jingping, and gave a cold snort.
"Utterly outrageous. " At that moment, a middle-aged man arrived at the Tu River foundries outside the capital of Jingping.
The Tu River of today was lined with countless foundries, great and small, each built on a colossal scale, standing along the riverbank so that from afar they looked like a divine city. Divine light soared to the heavens from the foundries; great divine furnaces turned day and night without pause; intricate mechanical giants, controlled by divine-arts practitioners, forged components of divine artifacts; and countless other practitioners drew, measured, and inscribed runes day and night, fashioning divine weapons. Many tower ships rose into the air, carrying finished divine artifacts toward the spirit-energy transfer bridge, bound for the Heavenly Court. The place was a scene of extraordinary bustle.
Kaihuang Shen Ye passed by one foundry after another, surveying their arrangements, and saw that some of them also produced curious contraptions like ice-mirrors and windmills, inscribing various divine abilities into these tools for the convenience of the common folk. "Blind Elder, divine gold is the single-crystal sequence of microscopic numerology, is it not?
" Kaihuang Shen Ye suddenly heard a resonant voice, and saw an old man carrying a case speaking with an old man who leaned on a bamboo staff with black dragon bone wound about his waist. The old man with the case said, "Mystic gold is a polycrystalline sequence; divine gold is a single-crystal sequence. If the polycrystalline sequence of mystic gold were adjusted into a single crystal, could mystic gold then become divine gold? " "In theory, yes.
" The old man called the Blind Elder had eyes of incomparable brilliance.
He took out a piece of divine gold and a piece of mystic gold, and suddenly opened his eyes; divine light streamed in all directions, and the microscopic structures of the mystic gold and the divine gold were laid out before him clear and distinct. He said, "How to change the microscopic crystal sequence — that is the real problem. Silent Craftsman, your forging method can hardly reach the very smallest crystals in the microscopic structure. " The old man called the Silent Craftsman had a voice that shook the ear. He sneered, "The Heavenly Origin Grand Furnace Smelting Method I have newly devised is meant precisely for microscopic forging, to inscribe runes upon the smallest crystals.
It is mainly that my eyesight is not as good as yours.
. . " Suddenly the two old men noticed Kaihuang, and turned their heads to look at him together. The Silent Craftsman grinned. "Aba, aba-aba?
" The Blind Elder leaned on his staff and said with a smile, "This brother here, the Silent Craftsman asks where you come from. " Kaihuang stepped forward and said with a smile, "My two brothers, I come from Carefree Land. Seeing you in such heated discussion, I could not help overhearing a few words.
You were just saying that by changing the microscopic crystal structure of mystic gold, one could turn mystic gold into divine gold — might you explain in more detail?
"
