“Not bad.” Elder He sized up Jiang Li for a long time before he said this sentence that could barely be considered a praise.
After all, he was a master. He had to put on airs. Otherwise, how could he discipline his disciples without such an image?
“That’s all. I’ll allow you to rest for a day. Come back to me tomorrow at this time.”
Elder He picked up the ice box that contained the demonic ape’s heart from the ground, turned around, and vanished from Jiang Li’s sight in a few steps.
Jiang Li did as he was told and could only turn around and leave.
In terms of his body, he was still in peak condition and did not need to rest at all.
In terms of his mind, although he only had the recovery status provided by a barely passable “Vigor Pill”, it was unable to completely make Jiang Li give up sleeping. At most… he could only not sleep for seven or eight days.
However, it had only been two days since he slept. Jiang Li felt that he could still work hard for a long time.
However, his master seemed to have something on for the time being. At the very least, he could not teach him today.
When he walked to the outer area of the Demon Vanquishing Hall, Jiang Li suddenly discovered something interesting.
In the direction of the port of the Demon Vanquishing Hall, one could see from afar that there was a simple temporary dock where the three damaged warships stopped. There were many people gathered there, busy with something.
Jiang Li was temporarily free. After walking closer, he discovered that the people from the Weapon Refinement Hall were there, repairing the warships.
After showing the token, he successfully bypassed the “do not enter” sign and approached to take a look.
What surprised Jiang Li was that not all the elders and disciples of the Weapon Refinement Hall were gathered around a warship to repair it.
There was a group of people in a temporary workshop. They were drawing all kinds of complicated and exquisite patterns on wooden planks of the same size and size.
The design concept of such a large flying ship was completely different from that of ordinary magical artifacts.
Due to its size, it meant that it was nearly impossible for a single person to do it. There was a lot of work.
The best solution for such a huge project was to assemble them after processing all the parts separately.
The few elders who had truly grasped the most advanced refinement technique only needed to coordinate the overall situation and be responsible for the most difficult core array formation construction.
As for the entire complicated array formation, it could be divided into more than ten thousand simpler and basic runes. They could be distributed appropriately to the various parts of the flying ship and then handed over to the disciples of the Weapon Refinement Hall to control.
The disciples of the Weapon Refinement Hall did not really need to master too many things.
As long as one mastered a few basic runes, he could participate in the assembly line production of parts and only be responsible for the parts he was good at.
Such a refinement method could be used for transportation, construction, grotto-heavens, and other large-scale array formations. The efficiency of labor was very high.
Moreover, it had another advantage, which was that it was more convenient to repair.
Just like the three damaged flying warships, they were obviously not suitable for reforging like ordinary artifacts.
However, the cultivators could directly dismantle the damaged parts on the warship’s hull and replace them with the new parts. It would be considered a success.
Jiang Li stood at the side and watched for a while. Perhaps it was because the runes on the wooden planks were relatively simple and basic, he did not feel dizzy anymore.
Instead, looking at the deep lines of the runes, he seemed to be able to see the spiritual qi flow inside.
It was a magical feeling, as if he instinctively knew that a rune on the wooden board meant “float”.
He grabbed a wooden board. It felt heavy and hard to the touch, but after gently inserting a breath of spiritual qi, it instantly became as light as air.
After letting go, this wooden board floated in the air for a while before floating down like a feather.
Jiang Li did not have a Fire attribute spiritual root, and he did not possess the Fire of Heaven and Earth currently, so he was naturally unable to develop in the direction of weapon refinement.
However, the path of runes and formations were all interlinked. He could give it a try here. At the very least, he should confirm whether he had this talent or not.
Therefore, he went forward and found a disciple who looked to be the most skilled among the registered disciples.
“Junior Brother.” Jiang Li went up and patted the disciple’s shoulder.
That disciple held a rune carving knife and was carefully drawing a key point.
After being interrupted by Jiang Li, he used too much strength, and the rune pattern directly changed shape. Without any suspense, the entire wooden board was wasted.
“You… Hello, Senior Brother. Is there anything I can help you with?”
That disciple originally intended to curse, but as soon as he turned around and saw Jiang Li’s white and elegant inner sect disciple uniform, all his displeasure vanished instantly, and he immediately welcomed him with a smile.
“Junior Brother, I’m sorry to have distracted you.”
Jiang Li patted this ‘junior brother’ on the shoulder even though he looked to be at least 10 years older than Jiang Li.
“No, no, no. I was careless, don’t worry about it.” That disciple hurriedly waved his hand, not daring to really flare up.
Although he was a registered disciple of the Weapon Refinement Hall and had always been doing quite well in the outer sect, he still had to respectfully address the inner sect disciples as senior brothers.
“Ah, you can’t say that. This issue was indeed my fault. Since you called me Senior Brother, how could I let you suffer a loss for no reason? If word got out, wouldn’t I be laughed at by outsiders?”
The outer sect disciple had a helpless expression. It was one thing for this senior brother to disturb him while he was carving the runes, but why was he still not letting him off?
“Senior Brother, it’s really fine. It’s just a rune board. I can just carve it again.”
“If there’s anything you need me for, just tell me. I won’t decline anything that I can do.”
Clearly, when inner sect disciples commanded outer sect disciples to do things, there was no need to be so eccentric. They could just say it directly.
“Hey, Junior Brother, don’t say that. I really want to make up for my mistakes.”
“How about this? Junior Brother, teach me how to draw the runes on this wooden board. After I learn it, I’ll carve another rune board for you. How about that?”
When Jiang Li said this, that disciple immediately understood.
This guy just wanted to test his talent in weapon refinement. He should have said so earlier instead of making him worry for a long time.
He had encountered more than one such situation.
There were quite a number of disciples who wanted to test their talent in the Weapon Refinement Hall and the Alchemy Hall. Every few days, there would be a few disciples who wanted to try their luck coming to seek their help.
Moreover, there were outer sect disciples and inner sect disciples among them.
If they were outer sect disciples, regardless of whether they succeeded or not, they would usually give a considerable amount of spirit stones as compensation for their time.
If it was an inner sect disciple, they would often scold the person after failing the attempt.
And so, he expected what would happen next.
However, this time, there were many inner sect senior brothers of the Weapon Refinement Hall present. This ‘Little Senior Brother’ probably would not go overboard.
However, he still put on an excited expression.
“Senior Brother is wise! Thank you, Senior Brother! Junior Brother will definitely do his best and not dare to hide anything.”
In his heart, his heart ached for the spirit wooden board that was about to be wasted.
