The five colors of white, cyan, black, red, and yellow were intertwined but did not penetrate each other, clear and distinct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In nature, the Five Elements spiritual energy generates and overcomes each other; it is very difficult to stabilize and coexist for a long time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But after the *Five Elements Qi Law* cultivation method, converting spiritual energy into Five Elements magic power, it can coexist peacefully and clearly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected of the legacy left by the Three Sects' Shangren!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qi Refining second layer...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, Ning Zhuo was at the third layer of Qi Refining, and after completely converting his magic power, he was only at the second layer of Qi Refining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Converting magic power also has consumption.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is as it should be; Ning Zhuo had expected it long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next step is to continue cultivating, accumulate magic power, and reach the third layer of Qi Refining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't know when I will be able to hear the bell of the Dharma-Transmitting Bell again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the conversion was completed, Ning Zhuo was exhausted physically and mentally, so he decided to rest and recharge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a few Warming Pills and took them to help his body adapt to the new magic power more quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Warming Pills have many advantages, such as mild medicinal power, slow effect, and minimal burden on the human body. Its biggest disadvantage is probably that it is expensive. One pill costs hundreds of spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding ding ding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just after Ning Zhuo finished taking the pill, he heard a crisp sound like a wind chime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a warning mechanism triggered by the appearance of a suspicious person near his residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He came to the workbench and kicked the table leg lightly. The wall facing him rattled, the wall bricks shifted to the sides, and a mirror emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the mirror, Ning Zhuo saw the \"suspicious person\" — Chen Cha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha was at the gate of Ning Zhuo's small courtyard, with his hands behind his back, pacing back and forth, looking down at the road with a troubled face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flash of light shone in Ning Zhuo's eyes: \"Chen Cha? What is he doing coming to find me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems that there should be a follow-up progress on the mechanical Fire-Exploding Monkey.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Ning Zhuo was slightly happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha paced at the gate of the small courtyard, his mind full of the scene that had happened before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Si summoned him and told him: The mechanical Fire-Exploding Monkey had been recognized by the City Lord, and he was going to mobilize all the mechanical workshops in the city to work together to manufacture this mechanical creation for large-scale harvesting of fire persimmons at this year's Fire Persimmon Festival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Si encouraged Chen Cha: \"You are the person I recruited into the city.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Work hard and do your best! If you succeed in this, your life situation will be completely different.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha was stunned; he heard it and explained hurriedly: \"Fei Si, you misunderstood me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I came to you to report this mechanical monkey mainly to ask you to arrange a preferential policy to reduce some taxes and fees for the Flying Disc Workshop.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In fact, this mechanical monkey was not designed by me. The person who developed it is someone else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha is good at formations and mechanical arts. People like him who study technology and can endure loneliness and hardship often do not like to engage in fraud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Claiming others' works as his own is an act he detests and disdains to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had previously talked with Ning Zhuo and once suspected that Ning Zhuo had claimed the mechanical work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Si was stunned: \"Not your work?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He really didn't know this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smiled indifferently: \"That's no big deal. You are the workshop owner; it's up to you to decide whose credit it is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha had his own persistence in this regard and shook his head decisively: \"My lord, my talent is shallow, and I don't have the talent to design such an exquisite mechanical creation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How many setbacks and hardships have been experienced from the design to the completion of such a mechanical creation? How much effort and thought has the inventor spent on this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is the difference between occupying others' mechanical works and killing someone to steal their child?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I earnestly ask you to see clearly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold light flashed in Fei Si's eyes, and he was a little angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his view: This mechanical work must be Chen Cha's! Because Chen Cha is his subordinate, and if Chen Cha has merit, it means he has merit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Si smiled on the surface, reached out and patted Chen Cha on the shoulder, and praised him instead: \"It is precisely your character that makes me appreciate you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although this work is not yours, I believe that in the future, you will definitely be able to design a mechanical creation even better than it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha looked moved: \"Thank you for your appreciation!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many years ago, it was precisely because of Fei Si's recruitment that he moved to Fire Persimmon Immortal City to develop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who knew that living in an Immortal City is not easy! He painstakingly managed the Flying Disc Workshop, and by this year, it was in a precarious situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was true that Fei Si gave him a chance at the beginning. He had always been very grateful for this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Si probed naturally: \"Let me ask you, which cultivator invented this mechanical monkey?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha refused to do it, so Fei Si decided to intervene secretly to \"help\" Chen Cha solve this trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the huge Fire Persimmon Immortal City, what does it matter if one or two unknown mechanical engineers are missing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha did not suspect anything and gave a simple introduction to Ning Zhuo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a Qi Refining third layer...\" Fei Si sneered in his heart, and then heard the following words, \"Hmm? A person from the Ning family?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Si frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was not easy to deal with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately dismissed his previous dark thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because this involved the Ning family, which was a Golden Core level force. Provoking it would be very troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ning family's scale and overall strength were recognized as the weakest among the four major forces in Fire Persimmon Immortal City. The Ning family only had one Golden Core stage cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the Ning family's Golden Core ancestor had been proven in actual combat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sixteen years ago, during the Ning family's migration, they experienced a fierce battle. The Ning family ancestor fought one against two, repelled the ambushing enemies, and saved most of the clansmen, with quite extraordinary combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was precisely this point that allowed the other three parties to sit by and watch the Ning family settle in Fire Persimmon City. Usually, although the four major forces inevitably had some friction, they were all restrained and controlled, trying their best to avoid fierce conflicts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To deal with Ning Zhuo, there was a possibility of facing the Ning family and the Ning family's Golden Core. Fei Si would never voluntarily bear such a huge price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For this little merit, it was not worth it at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This plan failed, Fei Si's thoughts turned, and he had another plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sighed: \"Chen Cha, you have misled me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha was suddenly surprised and uncertain: \"My lord, you are my noble person. Thanks to your promotion, I have been able to cultivate in Fire Persimmon Immortal City. Why do you say that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Si said: \"When you reported it, you were vague, making me mistakenly think that this was your mechanical work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have already guaranteed it to the City Lord, and even specifically asked for a merit for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alas, I have always trusted you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, the wood is already a boat. If the truth is exposed, how will the City Lord deal with you and me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm fine. What I'm worried about is you. For you, this is the crime of claiming credit!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha's face turned white, and he panicked: \"What should I do? Please save me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Si remained silent, stroking his beard and appearing to be in deep thought, before saying after a while: \"Well, go and discuss with that Ning Zhuo, see if you can persuade him to let him transfer this mechanical monkey to you. You are much older than him, and that Ning Zhuo is only sixteen years old. What has a cultivator from a big family school experienced? Hehe, talk to him well and discuss it with him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha was very troubled: \"This...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his heart, he didn't want to do this at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Si sneered in his heart, but sighed in his mouth: \"Chen Cha, this is for your own good! If you don't make a mistake, if the City Lord finds out in the future, the person who will be punished is you! The crime of claiming credit is not small.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Si casually gave a few examples, which made Chen Cha break out in a cold sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alas, things have reached this point, I can only go to persuade Ning Zhuo. No, I must persuade him successfully!\" Chen Cha sighed in his heart and had no choice but to change his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he appreciated Ning Zhuo very much, he considered him a like-minded person, and even vaguely regarded him as a confidant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it concerned his life and reputation, and might even involve Fei Si who had helped him, so he had no choice but to do so!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Si's strength and power were far higher than his. It was just that he bullied Chen Cha for not being able to reach the heavens and not being familiar with the internal affairs of the City Lord's Mansion, and with a few easy words, he held Chen Cha firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha never thought of bullying or dealing with Ning Zhuo, but in front of the Golden Core level Fei Si, he, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, was just a small person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Small people are always involuntary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After inquiring, Chen Cha came to Ning Zhuo's residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't knock on the door directly, but paced at the courtyard gate, sighing in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chen Lao, why did you come to me?\" The courtyard door opened, and Ning Zhuo changed into clean clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha turned around and saw a young man in a clean white robe, with clear eyes and an extraordinary temperament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man stood tall. The sunlight spilled down from the sky, illuminating his outline very clearly, and with the few flowers and plants in the small courtyard, the young man looked so vigorous, full of purity and beauty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Ning Zhuo's fresh appearance, Chen Cha's guilt increased tenfold!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had been immersed in technical research for many years and had a resentment against the injustice of the cultivation world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, today, he had to play the role of forcing the younger generation and conveying the darkness and cruelty of reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Cha felt incomparably heavy and painful!\u003C\u002Fp>",1928,"2026-06-17T23:33:09.460Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","6393f97ad83378de81a0269f0198afad888337e060b0829d69cbaf4fddd6036f","immortal-craftsmanship-chapter-33","immortal-craftsmanship-chapter-31",783,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimmortal-craftsmanship-cover.jpg"]
