Master Dongfang was a recognized master craftsman in the western region.
A long time ago, when Master Dongfang became famous at a young age, Imperial Tutor Xin Bing said that Master Dongfang would achieve great things in the future.
However, that was the truth.
Since then, Master Dongfang had shown great talent in crafting.
As time went by, his crafting skills improved rapidly.
In just a hundred years, he was able to craft an Emperor Stage weapon, which caused a great commotion at that time.
However, what was even more unbelievable was that Master Dongfang refused the Imperial Armament Pavilion's invitation.
Since then, Master Dongfang disappeared without a trace.
Some people said that Master Dongfang offended the Imperial Armament Pavilion and was killed by them.
Some said that Master Dongfang went to a wider area to pursue a higher level of crafting.
Of course, all these rumors were just guesses.
Now, Master Dongfang had appeared and publicly challenged the Pavilion Master.
Countless martial artists quickly gathered in front of the Pavilion of Weapons, waiting for the upcoming battle.
In front of the Pavilion of Weapons, Master Dongfang wore a gray robe and his red hair was particularly eye-catching.
Buzz!
Master Dongfang stood quietly. A strange aura was emitted from his body, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
"As expected of Master Dongfang. After disappearing for so many years, he's still so domineering."
"Yes, I heard that Master Dongfang loves to challenge geniuses. This time, he must have heard about the Pavilion of Weapons and came to challenge them."
"What a coincidence. We can see if the Pavilion Master is really talented and if he's just trying to impress the crowd."
"I wonder if Lord Xue and the Blood City Chamber of Commerce's president will come."
The discussions of the crowd quickly spread out.
Master Dongfang closed his eyes to cultivate, waiting for Fang Chen to appear.
After a while, the Blood City Chamber of Commerce's president arrived.
"Master Dongfang, it's an honor to meet you." The president saluted Master Dongfang.
However, Master Dongfang ignored him.
"I'm only here to challenge the Pavilion Master and see if he's as powerful as the rumors say," Master Dongfang said in a deep voice.
However, Fang Chen did not appear.
"If the Pavilion Master doesn't accept my challenge, then admit defeat in public and disband the Pavilion of Weapons. I'll leave."
Master Dongfang was trying to goad Fang Chen into joining the battle.
However, there was still no movement in the Pavilion.
On the ninth floor of the pavilion.
Kang Jiu and Tian Xin stared at their master. The latter was indifferent, as if he didn't care about Grandmaster Dongfang's challenge at all.
"Master." Tian Xin called out softly.
Fang Chen turned around and said, "What's wrong?
Are you worried about me? "
"Several hundred years ago, Master Dongfang was already able to refine an emperor weapon.
After several hundred years, his attainments in artifact forging have become even greater. According to the information we received, when Grandmaster Dongfang comes out of seclusion this time, it is extremely likely that he will reach the level of a Heart Weapon Imperial Preceptor, "Kang Jiu said.
Fang Chen shook his head.
"It's not that easy to forge a half-step Martial Emperor weapon.
However, this Grandmaster Dongfang seems to have some influence in the western region. If I defeat him in front of everyone, will it attract the attention of the Imperial Weapon Pavilion? "Fang Chen suddenly thought of this.
However, at this moment, there was already an uproar in front of the Weapon Pavilion.
Many people were guessing that the Weapon Pavilion Master was afraid and did not dare to appear.
However, Grandmaster Dongfang had said that if the Weapon Pavilion's Pavilion Master did not appear before sunset tonight, he would destroy the Weapon Pavilion with absolute strength.
His words alarmed the entire Blood City.
"Grandmaster Dongfang."
In the distance, Lord Blood quickly rushed over.
In the blink of an eye, Lord Blood arrived in front of Grandmaster Dongfang.
"Grandmaster, how can a mere Weapon Pavilion compare to a powerhouse like you?
The Weapon Pavilion and I have some friendship. Do me a favor and let them go? "Lord Blood whispered into Grandmaster Dongfang's ear.
"Hmph, if the Weapon Pavilion's Pavilion Master is unworthy of his reputation, then there is no need for the Weapon Pavilion to exist. Otherwise, it will embarrass the western region's artifact forging community," Grandmaster Dongfang said.
Lord Blood was a little embarrassed when he heard this. He turned to look at the Blood City Chamber of Commerce's president, who shrugged helplessly.
Time passed bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, several hours had passed.
The time of Grandmaster Dongfang's appointment was getting closer and closer. Many people were secretly delighted and were ready to watch a good show.
"It seems that the Weapon Pavilion is really scared. They don't dare to fight."
"Hmph, how dare the Weapon Pavilion compete with Grandmaster Dongfang?"
"That's right. Grandmaster Dongfang has reappeared after several hundred years. He must want to use the Weapon Pavilion as a stepping stone to tell the world that he is back."
Everyone discussed animatedly.
Even Grandmaster Dongfang was a little impatient.
Lord Blood tried to contact Fang Chen but did not get a reply.
The Blood City Chamber of Commerce's president's forehead was full of sweat. Their chamber of commerce and the Weapon Pavilion were allies. If the Weapon Pavilion was destroyed by Grandmaster Dongfang, their chamber of commerce would also be implicated.
This was something he did not want to see.
"I will go in and take a look."
Finally, the Blood City Chamber of Commerce's president could not help but push the door open, ready to go in.
Creak!
At this moment, the door of the Weapon Pavilion slowly opened. Three figures walked out.
Fang Chen was in front, while Kang Jiu and Tianxin followed behind him.
"You are the Weapon Pavilion Master?" Grandmaster Dongfang raised his head and looked at Fang Chen.
Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on Fang Chen.
Fang Chen nodded. "That's right. I am the Weapon Pavilion Master."
"Very well. Do you accept my challenge?" Grandmaster Dongfang asked directly.
Fang Chen did not answer directly. Instead, he smiled and said, "Grandmaster Dongfang has been famous for a long time. You are recognized as the strongest blacksmith in the western region. Why do you have to bully me?"
"So, you are afraid?" Grandmaster Dongfang frowned.
Fang Chen shook his head. "I just feel that it is a pity …"
"Pity what?"
"It is a pity for Grandmaster Dongfang's reputation." Fang Chen said calmly.
Grandmaster Dongfang was even angrier. "Hmph, pretentious.
I will not say anything more. As long as you can defeat me in blacksmithing, I, Grandmaster Dongfang, will leave without another word. I will also apologize to you for my words just now.
If you lose, the Weapon Pavilion will be disbanded and you will get out of Blood City. "
Lord Blood and the Blood City Chamber of Commerce's president looked at each other. They did not dare to interrupt.
Fang Chen smiled faintly. "I'll accept your challenge. However, I need to change the conditions."
"As you wish."
Grandmaster Dongfang was extremely confident in himself. He did not care how Fang Chen changed the conditions.
After all, he was going to win.
"If I lose, as you said, the Weapon Pavilion will be disbanded and I will leave Blood City.
But if you lose, you will join my Weapon Pavilion as the Deputy Pavilion Master. What do you think? "
Grandmaster Dongfang sneered. "Kid, I will let you know what true blacksmithing is."
Obviously, Grandmaster Dongfang agreed to Fang Chen's request.
Boom!
As soon as he said that, Grandmaster Dongfang's body emitted an extremely majestic energy. At the same time, he fully released his weapon core.
"Weapon core?"
Exclamations came from the crowd.
"Could it be that Grandmaster Dongfang can forge a half-step Martial Emperor weapon?"
"Oh my god, could Grandmaster Dongfang be on the same level as Emperor Xinbing?"
"If that is the case, then the Weapon Pavilion will have no chance of winning."
The Demonic Tribulation Supremacy of the Demonic Heart Palace sneered in the crowd. "Kid, you are so arrogant. How dare you compete with Grandmaster Dongfang in blacksmithing. You are courting death."
After that, the Demonic Tribulation Supremacy continued, "With the help of Grandmaster Dongfang, we will get rid of him. Then, we will try our best to rope him in. If he can be used by the Demonic Heart Palace …"
At the end of his speech, the Demonic Tribulation Supremacy laughed to himself.
"There are no rules in this competition. Whoever can forge a higher grade weapon will be the winner."
Grandmaster Dongfang took the lead. With a wave of his hand, all the materials were gathered and a violent flame began to burn.
After a quarter of an hour, Grandmaster Dongfang abruptly stopped.
While everyone was in a daze, a rainbow of light shot into the sky. Then, the entire sky shook.
"A vision from the sky?
Is it a half-step Martial Emperor? "
Everyone was shocked. They stared at the mushroom-like vision in the sky.
"Huh?
What's going on? "
In the blink of an eye, the vision dissipated.
At this time, Grandmaster Dongfang's weapon was completed.
Everyone was shocked and immediately exclaimed.
"Although it is not a half-step Martial Emperor weapon, it is infinitely close. That is why it triggered such a vision."
Strictly speaking, Grandmaster Dongfang's weapon had already surpassed the supreme-grade Martial Emperor level. It was only one step away from the half-step Martial Emperor level.
