Ultimate Martial Divine King

Upon hearing the words' Big Dipper Artifact Pattern ', Xu Yourong's slightly gloomy eyes immediately revealed surprise.    

    

The young man in front of him who was about the same age as him had actually set up a Big Dipper Artifact Pattern? However, Pattern Master who was in the field of artifact forging naturally knew about these kinds of inscriptions. The strength of these inscriptions were extremely strong and the Rune was very restless. If it was not handled well, it would easily cause a backlash and heavily injure the caster.    

    

But seeing that Chu Hen's expression did not seem like he was lying, Xu Yourong hesitated for a moment. Then, her beautiful eyes lit up, and she said, "Help me!"    

    

Chu Hen smiled and said, "Before I help you, shouldn't you explain the whole situation?"    

    

Xu Yourong gave an embarrassed smile and continued, "Let's walk while chatting."    

    

"Where to?"    

    

"Hook Yi City!"    

    

In the following conversation, Chu Hen found out the cause and effect of the incident.    

    

Xu You Rong was the only daughter of the Xu Family Patriarch, and other than Xu You Rong, Xu Hao had also adopted an adopted son, Xu Dingfeng!    

    

Ever since she was young, Xu Yourong had displayed an astonishing talent in refining. In addition to her outstanding talent in Dao Inscription Techniques, she had already reached the sixth level, High-Level Pattern Master, at such a young age.    

    

However, Xu Yourong's sworn brother, Xu Dingfeng, had similarly outstanding talent. Although he was older than Xu Yourong by a few years, he was still at the level of High-Level Pattern Master of the sixth stage.    

    

Originally, for the clan to produce these two shockingly extraordinary genius refiners, it was definitely a blessing in disguise.    

    

But who would have thought that two years ago, due to an accident during Xu Hao's artifact forging that led to the backlash of the Rune's power, he would suffer such a heavy injury that he seemed to have become an ordinary person …    

    

The original head of the family had suffered such an unexpected blow.    

    

A few of the people in the side wing of the family started to become restless. What Xu Yourong could not tolerate the most was that her foster brother Xu Dingfeng actually wanted to take the opportunity to seize the position of Patriarch, and occupy the entire Xu Family for himself.    

    

With Xu Dingfeng's strength alone, it would be difficult for him to take over the position of the Patriarch.    

    

However, behind Xu Dingfeng, there was the Second Elder. When the Third Elder's support first started, Xu Hao was still able to suppress everyone. However, in these two years, Xu Hao's body was getting worse — it was no longer as dignified as it used to be.    

    

In the family meeting, the second and third elder led many of the higher ups who had requested for Xu Dingfeng to be the candidate.    

    

Fortunately, Great Elder stood on Xu Hao's side. Great Elder firmly believed that Xu Yourong would be the one to take over the Patriarch's position.    

    

As the daughter of Xu You Rong, she should not have taken over the power of Xu Family, but she really didn't want to see Xu Dingfeng, this' ingrate ', taking over the clan's foundation that had been passed down for hundreds of years. With Xu Hao's insistence, Xu Yourong had no choice but to participate in the fight against Xu Dingfeng for the position of Patriarch.    

    

Xu Family was a family of artificers, so naturally, the way to elect a patriarch was through artificing.    

    

However, Xu Yourong and Xu Dingfeng's refining skills were practically on par with each other. Coupled with the fact that the two of them were both of the sixth stage, High-Level Pattern Master, had fought several times and the match had ended in a draw.    

    

Since Xu Dingfeng couldn't win against Xu Yourong, he naturally couldn't be convinced by the masses and couldn't smoothly take the position of Patriarch.    

    

At the end, the family's higher ups suddenly made a new rule, which was that Xu Dingfeng and Xu Yourong would each find a helper to work on the refining. In the end, which side would craft the best weapon would decide the victor.    

    

"Find a helper to finish refining?" Chu Hen found it funny, "They can really think of such an idea. Even if Xu Dingfeng defeated you, it would be with the help of others. How could they be convinced by the public?"    

    

Xu Yourong shook her head, and a helpless, bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "You do not know that to our Weapon Refining Clan, the three factors of cooperation, connections, and personal ability are the most important."    

    

Her voice paused for a moment, and then Xu Yourong continued, "First of all, during the arrangement of the high grade inscription, if you are unable to complete it by yourself, then you will need the help of other artificers, Pattern Master. As for the contact person, you should also know that for the family, this is essential, and as for your own ability, there is no need to say anything about it."    

    

"So that's how it is!"    

    

Chu Hen nodded. It seemed that the new rules of the competition were reasonable.    

    

"If he was only openly looking for someone to compete with, it would not be a big deal. However, Xu Dingfeng bribed all of High-Level Pattern Master in Gou Yi City, and even High-Level Pattern Master in the nearby cities was bewitched by him so no one was willing to help me … I have found some people who either have low attainment or are experts in other fields."    

    

At this point, Xu Yourong knew that it was hopeless to make a comeback.    

    

Rather than stay at home and be annoyed, she came alone to this mountain range to gather rare metal materials to relax her mood.    

    

However, she did not expect that she would run into Chu Hen who was chasing after Crazy Devil and ox beasts all the way at the In Valley of the mountain. Relying on her innate super strong perception, she detected the fluctuations of Spiritual Yi Strength in Chu Hen's Niwan Palace. Furthermore, the Spiritual Yi Strength's fluctuation was at least fifth stage High-Level Pattern Master and above. Although it was not Xu Yourong's most suitable partner, there was no choice.    

    

"I don't need to beat Xu Dingfeng, as long as I can be on the same level as him!" Xu Yourong said.    

    

Chu Hen smiled, "You just don't have confidence in me."    

    

Xu Yourong did not deny that, in her opinion, there was a high chance that the companion that Xu Dingfeng was looking for, was the same level as him, sixth stage Pattern Master, and Chu Hen was only at the fifth stage. Compared to him, in truth, even if they were to fight evenly, Xu Yourong was not particularly confident.    

    

"Do I get paid to help you?" Chu Hen asked lightly.    

    

Xu Yourong nodded her head, "Of course, I don't like owing favors to others. After this is over, I will give you a generous return."    

    

Chu Hen didn't say anything more.    

    

About four hours later, under Xu Yourong's lead, Chu Hen arrived at Gou Yi City.    

    

This was a bustling and lively city, the tall and big city gates exuded a grand and majestic aura. The people coming and going on the wide streets seemed to be very lively. However, the sounds of metal colliding with metal could be heard everywhere in the city.    

    

"Most of us in Gou Yi City know how to forge artifacts. We are the mainstream in the metal ore business."    

    

Xu Yourong seemed to have found out that it was Chu Hen's first time here, and she told him about the situation in Gou Yi City with great interest. Out of politeness, Chu Hen also listened very seriously to Xu Yourong's words.    

    

A moment later, Xu Yourong brought Chu Hen to the Xu Family.    

    

As the number one Weapon Refining Family in hook Yi City, their Xu Family was an exceptionally grand family.    

    

A stone lion over three meters tall was squatting on each side of the gate. The guards at the door were quite sharp. This kind of aura was not the slightest bit inferior to the Duke Palaces of Imperial Capital City.    

    

"Eldest Miss!" The guard at the door bowed respectfully.    

    

Xu Yourong lightly waved her hand, and immediately brought Chu Hen directly into the inner courtyard of Xu Family.    

    

Seeing that Xu You Rong had brought back an unfamiliar man, everyone in the Xu Family cast strange looks at her. Many of the young generation of the families were shocked, confused and disdainful.    

    

"Who is that person?"    

    

"I don't know. I've never seen this person before."    

    

"Could he be the helper that the Young Miss invited back? It seems like Xu Yourong will not have a chance tomorrow, Senior Brother Ding Feng will definitely win. "    

    

Everyone knew Genius Pattern Master from Wind Hidden Domain.    

    

However, Chu Hen's face was too unfamiliar, especially with the other party's age. I'm afraid that his attainment in Dao Pattern Technique is not too high. It seemed like this Xu Yourong had nowhere else to go, and she just dragged someone outside to come back.    

    

Xu Yourong did not seem to hear the whispers of the people around her.    

    

She arranged for Chu Hen to stay in the guest room in the west wing and said, "I'll have to trouble you to stay here. I will get a servant girl to bring some food over tonight."    

    

Looking at the bright bedroom, Chu Hen smiled and said, "This is the first time I'm living in such a good room, I'm not feeling wronged."    

    

"Is that so?"    

    

Xu Yourong did not believe him. Although Chu Hen did not look like a rich person, he had an innate heroic aura about him. Especially the other party's strength in the Martial Arts, Xu Yourong had personally witnessed it. She had always thought that Chu Hen was a low-key genius from some large clan that came out to gain experience.    

    

Without much thought, Xu Yourong pulled out a scroll and handed it to him.    

    

"There are three kinds of 'Artifact Patterns' here. Would you be able to arrange them in an orderly fashion?"    

    

"En!" Chu Hen took the scroll and walked to the room's table. Then, he unfolded the scroll and laid it flat on the table. Three densely packed lines of Rune s appeared in his line of sight.    

    

"Nine Lightning Blade …" Chu Hen said the name of the first one after a quick glance. "If this item is inscribed into the body of the artifact, Strength of Thunder And Lightning can be used. Among the supporting materials, the extremely rare metal called 'Thunder Spirit Crystal' can be used as the main supporting material."    

    

Xu Yourong's beautiful eyes lit up and she asked, "What about the second type of treasure?"    

    

"The Water Firearm Tattoo. This is a relatively high grade weapon tattoo. When engraved on a weapon, it can release the power of fire and water."    

    

Without waiting for Xu Yourong to ask any further, Chu Hen had already looked at the last item on the Rune list. He only glanced at the first half of the page and said without hesitation, "Miraculous Brightness Artifact Pattern, this is a genuine high level Rune. The weapons forged by the Miraculous Brightness Artifact Pattern can reach the level of ordinary Spiritual Artifact. "    

    

Xu Yourong became more and more surprised. The other party actually knew so much?    

    

It seemed like he did not find the wrong person!    

    

"What kind of inscriptions do you want?" Chu Hen asked.    

    

Xu Yourong was stunned at first, but then she replied, "Miraculous Brightness Artifact Pattern, you and I definitely cannot arrange it. With Xu Dingfeng's strength, he also cannot complete the Miraculous Brightness Artifact Pattern. He's probably going to have an 'ice gun pattern' tomorrow. "    

    

She looked at Chu Hen with faint nervousness in her eyes.    

    

However, Chu Hen answered without hesitation, "There are three hundred high level Rune and two hundred and eighty intermediate Rune. If you can afford two hundred high level Rune and a hundred intermediate Rune, I can help you complete them."
