Chapter 605: The New Era (2)
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
The talismans produced by the talisman engraving machine were now the Chen family’s most profitable product. They were much more profitable than magic tools and spirit pills.
The reason was the explosion of productivity brought about by the technological revolution.
The Chen family had always wanted to imitate the idea of developing the talisman engraving machine and invent a machine that could automatically refine weapons without the need for a refiner.
But after so many years, he had gained nothing.
On the other hand, the Spiritual Talisman Illumination Machine had been replaced by the Magical Equipment Research Institute for several generations. Now, not only could the Chen family produce high-grade Spiritual Talismans up to the third level, but the types of Spiritual Talismans they produced also covered all aspects.
Attack-type spirit talismans, defense-type spirit talismans, support-type spirit talismans, and so on.
Inside a laboratory in the Magical Equipment Research Institute.
While assembling and adjusting the Harmonious Spirit Stove and the magical tool, Chen Daochu said,””Although the magical tool machine developed by our magical equipment research institute is only a level one magical equipment, in theory, it can only produce level one magical equipment.
However, you said that the hardest thing in the world is to break through from zero to one!”
Chen Daoxuan nodded.” You’re right. Starting from zero to one is the most difficult. With this one, we can improve and develop on this foundation.”
Otherwise, without even a target for improvement, the so-called development would become empty talk.”
Seeing how much Chen Daoxuan acknowledged him, Chen Daochu’s face became even more energetic.
After a long time, he finally finished adjusting the Harmonious Spirit Stove and the magical tool.
Now.
The Chen family’s spiritual wire network had been laid out quite well. Compared to the electric wires in his previous life, it was not inferior at all.
Chen Daochu walked to the front of the Harmonious Spirit Stove and pressed a button that looked like a switch.
“Rumble!”
The Melting Spirit Stove was slowly activated amidst a violent roar.
Chen Daoxuan looked at the Nth generation Harmonious Spirit Stove in front of him, which was completely different from the first one he had created in the past, and remained silent.
He couldn’t help but have a thought. The potential of humans was indeed endless, especially when there were enough of them and they had received enough education.
The performance of the Chen family’s magical equipment research institute once again confirmed Chen Daoxuan’s deep thought.
One after another, the spirit ores were thrown into the Harmonious Spirit Stove.
Several hours later, the Harmonious Spirit Stove had successfully refined this batch of spirit ores.
Next was the important part.
The refined semi-finished materials in the Melting Spirit Stove were directly put into the magic tool machine tool.
Chen Daochu skillfully manipulated the magical tool in front of him.
Not long after, the machine tool successfully molded the semi-finished material in front of him. Chen Daoxuan scanned it with his divine sense and found that the shape of the magic tool that Chen Daochu had molded was a semi-finished sword embryo.
The last step was the most crucial step in refining magic tools, fusing the array!
Before this.
Chen Daoxuan’s own magic tool, the machine tool, fell at this step.
With Chen Daoxuan’s experience in two lifetimes, this step of shaping was really not difficult.
However, fusing arrays was different.
If this step was completed by a craftsman, not only did the craftsman need to be proficient in arrays, but he also needed to have excellent control over his mana and spiritual awareness.
Only in this way could he ensure that the Armament Master could successfully fuse the array and the Artifact Embryo into one.
But now, Chen Daochu wanted to use a magical tool machine tool to complete it directly. The difficulty was simply heaven-defying.
One must know that Chen Daoxuan’s requirement for the magic tool machine tool was that even mortals could operate it to refine magic tools independently.
This requirement seemed to be the same as the Harmonious Spirit Stove, which could be controlled by mortals.
However, the difficulty of refining spirit ores could not be compared to the difficulty of fusing arrays.
Even for a first rank Armament Master, refining Spirit Ores would only consume time and energy, and it was not difficult at all.
The most difficult step was fusing the array.
Chen Daoxuan carefully observed Chen Daochu’s operation. He discovered that throughout the entire process, Chen Daochu was only fiddling with the various switches on the magical tool machine tool. He did not use his magical power or divine sense once.
What did this mean?
It meant that mortals could also be qualified to operate the magical tool machine tool after training!
Thinking of this, Chen Daoxuan’s heart began to beat wildly.
“Patriarch, look!”
Chen Daochu took out a scarlet flying sword from the end of the magical tool machine tool. It was the type of flying sword that Chen Daoxuan had refined the most in the past-the Rainbow Sonic Flying Sword.
The Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword’s grade wasn’t high, only a middle-grade first tier.
However, the significance of producing it at this moment was not as simple as refining a middle-grade Level One magic tool.
It meant that the Chen family had created a new era.
With excitement, Chen Daoxuan took the flying sword from Chen Daochu and gently stroked the scarlet sword of the Rainbow Sound Sword. He said,”This magical tool of yours can only create one type of flying sword?”
Chen Daoxuan observed the entire process. Although he didn’t see the full principle of the machine tool, he saw when Chen Daochu activated the fusion function of the machine tool.
The machine tool in front of him only had four array patterns.
Obviously, the types and grades of the spiritual artifacts produced by this spiritual artifact machine tool were limited.
“Hee hee, Patriarch is indeed wise.”
Chen Daochu flattered him,” This magical tool machine tool is only a test model. Of course, for the time being, our magical tool research institute can only produce this kind of magical tool machine tool that can produce a single product.
It’s still very difficult for you to create the universal magical tool machine tool that you mentioned before.”
It was difficult for Chen Daoxuan to understand the meaning behind the other party’s words, but it wasn’t impossible.
He knew that although Chen Daochu looked carefree on the surface, he was extremely cautious in his actions and never boasted in front of him.
Since the other party said that it was difficult, there was hope.
Chen Daoxuan didn’t point it out. He knew what Chen Daochu was thinking. He hoped to shock him again in the future.
Shaking his head, Chen Daoxuan patted Chen Daochu’s shoulder and praised,””Dao Chu, good job. You’re much stronger than me. I’ve also studied the magical tool machine tool for a long time, but I haven’t made any progress.
I didn’t expect that your Magical Equipment Research Institute would be able to develop it before me.”
Hearing this compliment, Chen Daochu felt more comfortable than eating a piece of ice melon in July.
All along, Chen Daochu’s cultivation talent was not considered strong in the clan.
Although Chen Daoxuan had used the essence of his vital qi to forcefully push the other party’s cultivation to the Purple Mansion Stage, compared to the young prodigies that the Chen family constantly produced, he, as an elder of the Dao generation, really could not compare.
His cultivation talent was not good, and his management talent was also lacking.
However, Chen Daochu, who was straightforward by nature, was very outstanding in refining. Not only that, but compared to his outstanding talent in refining, Chen Daochu had a rare spirit of exploration.
Whether it was the talisman engraving machine or the magic tool machine tool.
These things were all created from scratch, especially the magical tool machine tool. There was no reference at all.
Even Chen Daoxuan himself, who had a cheat that doubled his comprehension, was at a loss.
However, this problem was solved by the Magical Equipment Research Institute led by Chen Daochu.
After feeling good, Chen Daochu felt a little embarrassed.
All along, Chen Daochu had admired Chen Daoxuan the most.
In Chen Daochu’s eyes, the Clan Leader was simply an omnipotent person.
Not only were they very talented in cultivation, weapon refinement, and pill refinement, but they also had a long-term vision. They managed to turn a dilapidated small family into the number one family in Azure Continent.
All this while, Chen Daochu had always had a thought in his mind, and that was to reach or even surpass Chen Daoxuan’s achievements in a certain aspect.
Now, it seemed that he had finally done it.
The significance of the magical tool was even greater than the significance of the Harmonious Spirit Stove to the Chen Family.
Chen Daochu, as the dean of the Magical Equipment Research Institute, knew this very well.
“Clan leader, stop praising me! If you continue to praise me, I’ll be floating!”
Chen Daochu joked,” The reason why our Magical Artifact Research Institute was able to develop this magical tool machine tool was not only because of the efforts of all the researchers in the research institute, but also because you, Chief, gave us special treatment whenever you were free. It also played a key role.”
Indeed, Chen Daoxuan paid more attention to the Magical Equipment Research Institute than the group of talented swordsmen from the Chen family.
This was because even the elites of the Chen family’s combat sequence had not received as many lectures from Chen Daoxuan as an ordinary researcher from the Magical Equipment Research Institute.
It was also because of Chen Daoxuan’s unrequited preaching that the Magical Equipment Research Institute was able to continuously launch various epoch-making products..
