Chapter 251
Translator: 549690339
Niu Dali’s gaze swept across dragon blade, mo Xue, snow fox, and Li xiaonian. He propped himself up and took out a blood-red heart-shaped necklace from his chest. The pendant in the middle of the necklace was extremely red.
Blacksmith’s heart?
The eyes of dragon blade, mo Xue, and snow fox were burning. If they could, they really wanted to take action and snatch the treasure. They could slowly compensate for it in the future.
Li xiaonian became nervous as well.
No one would complain about having too many treasures. Having one more treasure on one’s body would have a huge impact on the game and on cultivation in the real world.
“This necklace has been with me for most of my life, I didn’t expect ... Forget it, forget it, its fated person is not me after all.” Niu da li mumbled to himself. He raised his head and looked at the four people. I’m a dying man. I have no interest in money and power. Since you all want it, let it choose its own master.
As he spoke, Niu Dali passed the necklace to his elderly mother.
The old woman understood and silently took the [ blacksmith’s heart ]. She turned to look at li xiaonian and the other three. hold this necklace and inject your cultivation techniques into it. The one that gives off the most intense red light will obtain the [ blacksmith’s heart ].
After saying that, the old woman handed the necklace to the Dragon blade. “You’ll start.”
Dragon blade took the necklace nervously. When he saw the attributes of the necklace, his body trembled with excitement.
“Hurry up,” he said. The old woman frowned.
She could feel that her son didn’t have much time left and could die at any time. She had to let her son see where his blacksmith’s heart belonged before he closed his eyes. Otherwise, his son would not die in peace.
“Alright,” he said.
The Dragon blade placed the necklace in his palm and clenched his fingers, crushing the necklace.
Weng ~
A faint red light came out from the gap between his fingers. Although the red light was weak, it lit up the whole room.
“Next,” The old woman said coldly.
Dragon blade did not know how his results were. His body tensed up and he reluctantly handed the necklace to grinding blood.
Although grinding blood had already expected this, he was still dazed after seeing the attributes of [blacksmith’s heart].
Weng ~
A red light emerged from mo Xue’s fist. The intensity of the light far exceeded that of the Dragon blade, and the entire room was dyed red.
Upon seeing this, mo Xue clenched his fists excitedly and laughed,” dragon blade, it seems like [blacksmith’s heart] and I are fated.
Long Dao’s expression became unusually ugly as he said indifferently,””It’s hard to say if I’m fated with you.”
He would rather have [blacksmith’s heart] fall into li xiaonian’s hands than see it fall into the hands of mo Xue or the snow fox.
It was the snow Fox’s turn.
The red light triggered by the snow fox was similar to that of a dragon blade.
“Thanks for letting me win.” Mo Xue appeared humble, but his actions were asking for a beating.
The snow Fox’s face darkened, and it silently passed the necklace to li xiaonian. “Little brother, it’s all up to you now.”
Li xiaonian took the necklace.
[ heart of the blacksmith ]
Gold necklace
Health points +100
[ attribute: +20% success rate when forging weapons in a state of concentration, and 1% chance of forging a top-tier weapon. ]
[cultivation speed: 1]
[usage restriction: blacksmith]
......
This was the first time he had seen a gold necklace. He could not tell if the attributes of this necklace were good or bad, but it was A +1 cultivation speed, which virtually doubled the cultivation speed in the real world. Just this point alone made its value immeasurable.
Under everyone’s gazes, li xiaonian silently held the necklace and activated the nine revolution Heavenly Fire Eyes.
All of a sudden.
Weng ~
A blinding red light emerged from the gaps between his fingers. The light was so strong that the people around him could not open their eyes.
At the same time, li xiaonian felt as if he was holding a burning flame in his palm.
It was hot, very hot.
It was so hot that he had no choice but to let go.
“Screech ~~”
A Phoenix made of flames rose from li xiaonian’s palm and spread its wings in the small room. With a ‘Xiu’ sound, the fire Phoenix rushed toward li xiaonian’s chest and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The entire room was silent.
Niu da li, who was originally on the verge of death, widened his eyes and couldn’t help but burst out laughing. I didn’t think that I would be able to see the fire Phoenix in my lifetime. I can die without regrets. “What’s your name?” he looked at li xiaonian.
“Dark ... Shadow.”
He was used to the name ‘June’ and almost mixed up his id.
“Cough cough ...”
Niu da li coughed out a mouthful of blood, and his body fell back limply.”You have the chance to become a divine Smith, so don’t waste your talent ...”
“Dali.” The old woman held her son nervously.
Niu da li squeezed out a smile.”Mother, I’m sorry ... Dali won’t be able to serve you in the future. I won’t regret it in this life ...”
Niu da li slowly closed his eyes and stopped breathing.
The old woman held her son in despair, a tear rolling down the corner of her eye. “You guys can leave.”
Long Dao, snow fox, and Mo Xue glared at li xiaonian with unwillingness on their faces.
In order to obtain the [ blacksmith’s heart ], the three of them had spent a lot of time and money to pass through Niu Dali’s numerous tests. In the end, they had lost to a poor kid who had accidentally barged in.
The old woman looked at li xiaonian. you should leave as well. If you want to repay my son, you don’t have to become a divine Smith. Even if you’re only a Grandmaster, my son will know in the underworld. He’ll be very pleased.
“My condolences.” Li xiaonian slightly bowed and silently left the dilapidated room.
He was an outsider and a new player. He wouldn’t be of much help here, so he could only leave temporarily.
The parting of life and death was always sad.
For some reason, it reminded him of the situation on earth.
if we can’t find the star Lord as soon as possible, not only the soul poison in my body, even Earth might be destroyed. Li xiaonian secretly clenched his fists,’we can’t let that happen.’
Outside the ruins, the street lights were very dim.
Li xiaonian had only taken a few steps when long Dao, mo Xue, and the snow fox immediately surrounded him.
little brother, name a price. As long as you’re willing to sell [ blacksmith’s heart ], you can name the price. The Dragon blade said calmly.
Mo Xue, on the other hand, was not so polite. He coldly said, you’re just a newbie. Not only did you steal our opportunities, but you also brought harm to us by keeping such a valuable treasure. If you’re not willing to sell it, you won’t be able to leave this newbie village.
The snow fox stood calmly on the spot, looking at li xiaonian.
This was a safe zone, and there was no way to fight. If it wasn’t for this restriction, the three of them would have already attacked.
Li xiaonian furrowed his brows and thought for a moment. Then, he smiled and said,”You want it? It’s not impossible, but if you can help me with one thing, I’ll give it to whoever can do it for free.”
“What request?” The snow fox asked impatiently.
“If you have the star Lord’s contact information and give it to me, I can give it to you for free,” li xiaonian said indifferently.
Grina’s grandfather was a Star Master. The probability of asking for help to remove the soul poison was very low, so he had to hold back.
Hearing li xiaonian’s request, the three men’s faces darkened.
if you don’t want to trade, just say it. You’re wasting our time with such a request. The snow fox glared at li xiaonian in anger.
Dragon blade frowned.
“So, you’re saying that you’re not willing to sell [ blacksmith’s heart ]?”
Li xiaonian shrugged and turned to leave.
It was not difficult to judge that these players were relatively well-off compared to ordinary people. However, they were just average. At most, they were from families with a small fortune.
Long Dao, mo Xue, and snow fox looked at each other.
“You’re letting him leave just like that? We’ve wasted tens of thousands of domain coins to get this chance, but the treasure that was about to be ours was gone just like that. Don’t you feel bad?” Mo Xue said through gritted teeth.
Dragon blade shrugged his shoulders. it’s time. It’s also life. It’s fine if you don’t want it.
The snow fox chuckled. you should be the one who’s feeling the worst. You should know that if shadow didn’t appear, [ blacksmith’s heart ] would be yours. Not only does it double the cultivation speed and increase the success rate of forging weapons by 20%, but anyone would be envious of such a high-quality gold weapon.”
After the two finished speaking, they turned around and left one after another, leaving mo Xue with a stomach full of anger.
......
On the other side.
Li xiaonian strolled along the street, deep in thought.
I have a piece of top-grade equipment, but I don’t have the initial funds. This equipment can’t be used at all. This is going to be troublesome.
[ blacksmith’s heart ]’s usage requirement was to be a blacksmith.
Blacksmithing was one of the sub-occupations, and if he wanted to get started, he had to pay money to become a disciple. The problem was that he did not have the money right now. If he wanted to earn money, he had to go out.
Would he be able to walk out of the safe zone? He definitely couldn’t go out.
Not to mention that biqi was keeping an eye on them, the three people just now didn’t look simple at all. Their ranks were also surprisingly high. Once they went out, they would definitely be hunted down. [ blacksmith’s heart ] wasn’t a bound equipment, and there was a certain chance of it dropping upon death.
Just as li xiaonian’s face was filled with hesitation ...
Suddenly, a snow-white figure blocked li xiaonian’s path.
It was the snow fox.
“Is there something?” Li xiaonian frowned.
The snow fox smiled faintly. shadow, from the looks of it, you must be in need of money. Why don’t we work together? ”
“Oh? How do we cooperate?” Li xiaonian was curious.
it’s very simple. Join our mountain forest Guild and I’ll apply for an elder position for you. We’ll fully support you and let you go further on the path of blacksmithing. In return, you’ll have to forge two weapons for us every month.
Li xiaonian shook his head and refused without thinking. “Let’s change to something else.”
The snow Fox’s face darkened. our mountain forest Guild might not be the best, but we have quite a few super experts. If you become an elder, you’ll get a monthly allowance of 300 domain coins. Moreover, you only need to forge two weapons every month. For a newcomer like you, this condition is definitely not a scam.
I won’t join any forces. Li xiaonian said with absolute certainty.
Star field’s major forces had very little restrictions, but he didn’t like it. If he wanted to do something, he would do it the best he could. Building a Chamber of Commerce himself and continuously earning huge wealth was his first choice.
As long as he had enough money, enough to move the star Lord, he didn’t believe that the star Lord wouldn’t appear.
He set a time for this goal, seven years. He had to become big and strong within seven years. This was the only way he could save Earth independently.
As for fighting for hegemony, it wasn’t that he didn’t want to, but it was almost impossible. Star field had been open for 200 years. In such a long time, the real experts were already far ahead. Even if he had a divine weapon, it would be almost impossible to catch up without hundreds or thousands of years.
Seeing li xiaonian’s unyielding attitude, the snow fox was disappointed. forget it. Since you don’t want to, I won’t force you. I wish you good luck.
The [ blacksmith’s heart ] was only secondary to the reason why she thought so highly of li xiaonian. The key was that Niu Dali had said that li xiaonian had the potential to become a divine Smith. This was what made her heart flutter.
“Hey ... Don’t be in such a hurry.” Li xiaonian hurriedly shouted.
the conditions I proposed just now are already the limit of what our Guild can offer. If you want something else, I can only say that you’re thinking too much. The snow fox replied.
“Ahem, business is not good, but benevolence and righteousness still exist.” Li xiaonian changed the topic and said awkwardly,”Beauty, since you think so highly of me, why don’t you lend me some start-up capital? When I have money, I’ll definitely return it to you double.”
The snow fox was a little tempted. After thinking for a moment, it looked at li xiaonian.”How much do you want to borrow?”
Li xiaonian’s eyes lit up. of course, the more the better. Blacksmiths, as you know, are a bottomless pit.
The snow Fox’s mouth twitched. It took out a stack of domain coins from its bag and handed them to li xiaonian. 1000 domain coins. Consider it an investment from me. I don’t need you to return me this amount. You owe me a favor.
“......”
Li xiaonian’s face darkened. beauty, 1000 domain coins for a favor from me? don’t you think that my favor is so cheap? ” I’ll return you three times the amount.”
Hearing li xiaonian’s words, the snow fox chuckled. I don’t want money, I just want a favor. If you’re not willing, then just pretend I didn’t say anything.
Since the other party cared so much about favors, a preliminary judgment showed that an Ying’s character was not bad.
The corner of li xiaonian’s mouth twitched. alright, but I have to make this clear first. Don’t look for me for things that are too difficult to handle.
“No problem,” he said. The snow fox nodded its head generously.
Li xiaonian took the money and sent a friend request to the snow fox.
Ding ...
The system replied, [ the snow fox agrees to your request. You two are now good friends. ]
Li xiaonian waved the domain currency in his hand.”If there’s nothing else, I’ll get back to work.”
“Wait,”
The snow fox stopped li xiaonian.
Li xiaonian turned around.
“You’d better not leave the new netherworld village within two years, or you’ll die a terrible death,” said the snow fox. The Dragon blade might not care, but mo Xue will definitely not let you off.”
“I understand.”
Li xiaonian nodded. After thinking for a while, he said awkwardly, beauty, I’ll help you to the end. How about ... You lend me some more ore materials and help me get a furnace while you’re at it? ”
The snow fox rolled its eyes at li xiaonian, turned around, and left.
that’s a little stingy. He only borrowed 1000 domain coins.
Li xiaonian waved the cash in his hand.
With this amount of money, if he invested it into the blacksmith profession, he would only be able to get into the beginner level at most.
no, I have to find a stable income before I become a blacksmith. Otherwise, I’ll have to sit back and eat.
With that thought, li xiaonian headed straight for the recruitment market.
At night, the market was packed with people. There were no NPCs here to recruit, only players. It was very normal for players to hire players.
He was just about to wander around when suddenly.
Ding dong ...
“Someone is calling from the real world,” the system said.
could it be that red fiend wants to use the cultivation room to enter star field? ”
Li xiaonian logged out of the game with some doubts.
He opened the alloy door of the cultivation room.
The one who appeared was not Hong mo or Mei Chu, but Grina.
“Oh ... Dr. Green, you’re finally done.” Li xiaonian greeted him warmly.
