Chapter 325: You know nothing of Lu Xun's terror

Senior, you've worked hard; this is a bottle of energy-restoring pill I specially prepared for you, please be sure to accept it.

Seeing Master Ge looking weary, Lu Xun handed over a bottle of pill.

The natal divine weapon Master Ge forged for him is indeed powerful.

Although Lu Xun had saved him before, he didn't intend to let Master Ge work for free.

If he mentioned Dark Energy or the like, Master Ge would probably refuse; offering a bottle of pill like this is better.

These pills are naturally all refined by Lu Xun; their effect is not merely to restore energy, but also to consolidate the foundation, nurture the primordial, and extend lifespan.

"Little friend, thanks for your thought; I won't stand on ceremony then."

Master Ge laughed heartily and did not refuse.

After receiving the pill, he directly picked up one and swallowed it.

"This pill... isn't ordinary, little friend; you must have spent quite a bit on it."

Upon swallowing it, Master Ge immediately felt the pill's extraordinariness.

"It's fine; this pill was refined by a friend of mine."

"Three patterns... little friend, this is probably a Saint-grade pill that appeared recently; I never expected that this mysterious Saint-grade alchemist would be your friend—haha, old man, I've also gotten a bit of your luck and gotten to eat a Saint-grade pill!"

Master Ge's eyesight is not bad; upon close inspection, he discovered three layers of colorful patterns on the pill.

It seems he learned about Saint-grade pills from somewhere.

"Little friend, do you have any other weapons you want forged? I happen to be free these days; let me help you forge them together."

Master Ge put away the pill and said.

As a Master Artificer, how could he possibly be idle?

He said this so that Lu Xun wouldn't feel psychological pressure.

"Senior, I actually still want to forge a few weapons..."

Lu Xun stated his needs.

He wants to forge weapons for use by the Heaven-Earth Dharma Aspect.

For weapons used by the Heaven-Earth Dharma Aspect, the most crucial point is that they must be large.

Because the Heaven-Earth Dharma Aspect itself is immensely huge.

A Seventh Realm's Heaven-Earth Dharma Aspect is at least over ten meters tall.

The stronger the Seventh Realm, the more enormous its Heaven-Earth Dharma Aspect.

Like Fu Yue's Heaven-Earth Dharma Aspect, it's about twenty-something meters.

If it's the peak of the Seventh Realm, the Heaven-Earth Dharma Aspect approaches a hundred meters.

For such a Heaven-Earth Dharma Aspect, if the weapon is too small, it's like an adult wielding a toothpick in a fight.

Isn't that ridiculous?

Besides being large, the weapon used by the Heaven-Earth Dharma Aspect must also be heavy—at least several hundred tons—to be effective for it.

This way, the weapon's own potential energy can be fully utilized.

Don't underestimate the effect of weight.

When the Heaven-Earth Dharma Aspect wields a weapon, it can reach near-light speed at fastest.

Imagine a weapon weighing several hundred tons striking at near-light speed; even without any martial techniques, those below the Seventh Realm would struggle to withstand it.

If martial techniques or secret arts are employed, its power will increase exponentially.

Such a weapon must be made of sufficiently good material.

Otherwise, a single blow could indeed destroy heaven and earth, but the wielder might not be able to endure it themselves.

"So little friend, you want to forge a weapon for the Dharma Aspect... leave it to me."

Master Ge agreed without a word after hearing Lu Xun's request.

"Senior, do you think these materials are sufficient?"

Lu Xun produced a large amount of ore.

The weapon needed for the Heaven-Earth Dharma Aspect is too large; Lu Xun's divine metal is insufficient.

Therefore, Lu Xun does not intend to waste the divine metal.

These divine metals, Lu Xun plans to use them to forge a spirit shield first; the rest will be stored for later use.

As for the weapon for the Dharma Aspect, Lu Xun intends to use some rare ore mixed with divine bone ash to forge an ultra-high-strength one.

"Should be no problem; I still have plenty of materials on hand, and gathering them should be enough."

After scanning the materials Lu Xun prepared, Master Ge said.

"How could I let you, senior, go to the expense..."

"Little friend, you're being polite; this isn't much of an expense. By the way, I heard from Fu Yuan that you wanted to find Master Dangyang but couldn't?"

Master Ge asked.

Fu Yuan is his senior disciple.

Lu Xun replied: "It's not that I didn't find him; Master Dangyang is too busy, with too many people seeking him, I don't know when I'll get a turn."

"Hey, why didn't you say so earlier? Come on, I'll take you to find him."

Master Ge grabbed Lu Xun and left.

"Senior, do you know Master Dangyang?"

"Of course, he's my junior brother; he wants to make good puppets, which inevitably requires my help, so when you meet him later, don't stand on ceremony—feel free to make any requests."

Master Ge said.

That explains it.

A puppet master indeed cannot craft puppets without the help of an artifact smith.

Soon, the two arrived at Lu Ban Building again.

"Senior Ge, how did you come here?"

The front desk saw Master Ge and hurried out to greet him.

"I've come to find Master Danyang. This brat won't even see my guests—he clearly needs a lesson."

Master Ge let out a soft snort.

"Ah?"

The front desk glanced at Lu Xun, then suddenly remembered that Lu Xun had come a few days earlier.

"Senior, Master Danyang has indeed been busy these past few days, but this guest never said he knew you, otherwise I would have already notified you..."

The front desk hurriedly explained.

"Notify what? I'll go find him myself."

Master Ge straightaway brought Lu Xun and charged inside.

"Senior, wait."

The front desk wanted to stop them, but it was already too late.

"Senior, Master Danyang is really busy..."

"I don't care if he's busy—let me in."

The guards inside Lu Ban Building were naturally strict.

But Master Ge forced his way through, and nobody dared to stop him.

Mainly because he is Master Danyang's senior brother and often comes to Lu Ban Building, so others wouldn't even dare to block him.

Thus, Master Ge brought Lu Xun straight into the depths of Lu Ban Building.

Lu Ban Building looked tall, big, and wide, but it didn't have many floors.

Inside there was an extraordinarily large space, within which hundreds of puppet masters were busy.

"So big."

Lu Xun's gaze locked onto a puppet in the center.

It was an enormous puppet, several hundred meters tall, resembling the mechs from old-era movies.

But this thing is far more formidable than those flashy, impractical mechs.

"This is a Giant God Soldier, which we found in the tomb of a mechanical civilization; it was already damaged when discovered, and they've been trying to repair it, but our puppet masters are too unskilled—after all these years, they still haven't fixed it."

Seeing Lu Xun looking at that puppet, Master Ge explained.

"Giant God Soldier!"

"This should count as a kind of puppet."

"Lu Xun, wait here; I'll go find Master Danyang."

Master Ge looked around, didn't see Master Danyang, then moved and left.

As an Artifact Refining Master, his cultivation isn't formidable, but it's not weak either—he himself has the strength of the Fifth Realm.

"Huh, Lu Xun, how did you get in?"

Not long after, a somewhat familiar voice suddenly sounded.

Lu Xun turned and saw the girl Caiwei appear not far away.

Lu Xun was about to explain when the man named Wu Wen, whom he had met before, seemed to hear her words and flashed over.

"Lu Xun!"

Wu Wen saw Lu Xun, and dissatisfaction instantly filled his eyes.

"You actually sneaked in? Hey, someone, throw him out!"

Wu Wen shouted loudly for help.

"Senior Brother, the guards here are so strict; Lu Xun definitely didn't sneak in—maybe Master let him in."

The girl Caiwei hurried to stop him.

"Master is busy researching the core of the Giant God Soldier; he has no time for him—he must have sneaked in. Where are the guards?"

Wu Wen shouted for a long time, but still no one came, so he raised his volume a notch.

Now at last a squad of guards arrived.

These guards, though they were guards, were cultivators of considerable ability.

"Guards, throw out this sneak‑in thief!"

Wu Wen pointed at Lu Xun.

"You say who's the thief?"

Lu Xun finally spoke, his eyes flashing lightning as he stared at Wu Wen and said,

"Ah..."

Wu Wen, under Lu Xun's gaze, felt his heart about to jump out, his whole body unsteady; he covered his chest and stumbled back several steps with a "scrape scrape scrape".

His face turned even paler.

Although he was a Sixth‑rank Puppet Master, his cultivation was only at the early Fourth Realm.

Frankly speaking, Lu Xun could kill him with just a glance.

"Guards, he's attacking me with his gaze—quick, seize him!"

Wu Wen now shouted even more insistently.

If this were elsewhere, he'd still be a bit afraid of Lu Xun.

But this is Xuanji City, Lu Ban Building.

"Who's causing trouble here?"

A figure flashed.

A martial cultivator exuding a terrifying aura appeared.

Seven realms!

Lu Xun never expected that inside a tiny Luban Building, there would be a Seven Realm cultivator stationed.

That's right.

There are Giant God Soldiers here.

This thing looks complicated at a glance, so it's understandable that a Seven Realm cultivator is stationed here.

Yan Commander, you've come just in time—Lu Xun sneaked into the Luban Building, and even after I discovered him, he glared at me; don't let him off!!

Wu Wen shouted.

Lu Xun?

The newcomer furrowed his brow.

Lu Xun, what's going on?

After his gaze swept over Lu Xun, he confirmed Lu Xun's identity, and his tone eased.

Senior, I came to find Master Danyang, but he insisted I was a thief and wanted the security to drive me away, so I had to give him a warning.

Lu Xun said lightly.

You sneaked in—what else are you if not a thief?

Wu Wen argued.

Lu Xun didn't sneak in; Master Ge brought him in.

At that moment, the guard outside sensed the commotion and hurried in to explain.

Master Ge?

Wu Wen was stunned.

He is the senior brother of Master Danyang, an eighth-rank armament refiner, whose status is far higher than Master Danyang's.

Among masters of various fields, armament refiners have always held higher status than puppet masters.

Because everyone needs weapons, whereas puppets are not needed by everyone.

Moreover, even powerful puppets cannot do without the help of armament refiners.

Impossible, how could he know Master Ge!

Wu Wen still didn't believe it.

There's nothing impossible; you probably don't know, Master Ge's life was saved by Lu Xun!

Yan Commander couldn't stand it any longer and said coldly.

He could see that Wu Wen had developed hostility toward Lu Xun.

As for the reason for the hostility, given his experience, he could almost guess it at a glance.

It's nothing more than a love rivalry.

However,

This fool knows nothing of Lu Xun's terror.

Just him, a sixth-rank puppet master, his weight is nowhere near comparable to Lu Xun's.

As long as Lu Xun remains on Lan Xing, in future Heavenly Dao battlefields, Lu Xun will be the sole true god.
