Chapter 277: The Dusty Past

Shui Chuan stared at Dark Lin and Lin Liang, but after looking at it for a long time, he didn't find a trace of concern on Dark Lin and Lin Liang's faces, and couldn't help but sigh at the moment, looking towards the top of the stone hall, with a look of amazement on his face.

"That's it, since you want to know, the old man has been frank all his life, and there is nothing to hide!"

It was the fiftieth year after the establishment of the Instrument Alliance, and after fifty years of initial running-in, under the leadership of the Emperor Ye Yuntian, although the interests of each vein within the Instrument Alliance were different, it was finally roughly stabilized.

There are two reasons why the Instrument Alliance was able to be established in the first place. The first one naturally needless to say, if there was no Emperor Ye Yuntian, I am afraid that such a force composed entirely of smelters would not appear in thousands of years, and the second reason was the status of smelters on the continent at that time.

The status of the smelter is indeed much higher than that of ordinary martial artists, but this is only in the eyes of the scattered cultivators, for those big forces, compared to asking for the smelters, it is better to use the strength of their own power to directly forcibly raise a group of smelters to refine their own weapons, so that it is convenient and labor-saving spirit crystals, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone!

Especially after this idea was put into action by some forces, the smelters on the continent could be said to be in danger of themselves, and they did not dare to be too high-profile to attract the attention of certain forces, until the birth of the Emperor Ye Yuntian.

"Ye Yuntian, this man's ability is unimaginable to anyone, from his birth to becoming the Emperor of Instruments, being promoted to a ninth-order smelter, and ascending to the top of the continent, it only took more than seventy years, more than seventy years, ordinary lowest-level martial artists can live to be one hundred years old without accidents, and for those high-level martial artists, seventy years is really too short!"

Although thousands of years have passed since Ye Yuntian's era, but when he talked about Ye Yuntian again, Shui Chuan's eyes still irrepressibly rose with a sense of amazement and powerlessness, for their time at that time, the three words Ye Yuntian represented not only the Emperor of the Instrument, but also a miracle, a miracle that could not be surpassed!

It is hard to imagine that a person can succeed smoothly in his life, because even ordinary people will encounter setbacks, not to mention them, martial artists who fight with heaven and earth, inner demons, bottlenecks, these are calamities and tempering, and it is precisely because of the existence of these that martial artists can go out of their own way and compete with heaven and earth.

But Ye Yuntian is an exception that has always been smooth and successful. From the beginning of the martial arts to the peak of the martial arts emperor realm, let's not talk about whether there are any martial artists who have reached the emperor realm except Ye Yuntian, let's just say that below the emperor realm, there are countless martial artists who spend hundreds of years still staying in the king realm and finally die of old age, not to mention the martial artists below the king realm, some people can't cultivate in their lifetime, just like Lin Liang before.

Yes, before Ye Yuntian appeared, the fastest record for promotion to the King Realm was eighteen years old, but this genius was quickly killed and could not continue, and among the Saint Realm martial artists who reached below the Emperor Realm, the youngest had cultivated for at least a thousand years, and Ye Yuntian only took more than seventy years to reach a realm that almost all martial artists could not reach.

This kind of speed is not something that can be achieved just by piling up resources or talent, not to mention that Ye Yuntian's origin is not a big sect, although no one knows Ye Yuntian's origin.

To this day, Shui Chuan still remembers what Ye Yuntian said when he summoned the Eight Vein Masters when the Instrument Alliance was just established.

"The establishment of the Instrument Alliance, not because of me Ye Yuntian alone, because even if there is no me Ye Yuntian, another "Instrument Alliance" will appear after many years, this is inevitable, just as the same martial artists will form a sect, and the smelters will also have a common home, this is the general trend!"

This is what Ye Yuntian said in front of the vein master of the smelting eight veins and thousands of smelters at that time, what he said was very firm and infectious, Shui Chuan vaguely remembered that when he said the word "home", the eyes of many smelters present were a little moist, they were all taken away by some forces and reduced to tools in their hands, and after the establishment of the Instrument Alliance, under the power of Ye Yuntian, they finally gained freedom again, and they had a common home - the Instrument Alliance.

"Ahem, I'm sorry, I think of the past and feel a little nostalgic, and I accidentally said it wrong. As if he realized something, Shui Chuan smiled embarrassedly, and saw that Lin Liang and Dark Lin were both listening very seriously, so he continued.

What follows is the memory that the old man doesn't want to mention the most. ”

It was still in the fiftieth year of the establishment of the Instrument Alliance, after fifty years of development, the exchanges and collisions of countless smelters finally produced the effect that Lord Ye Yuntian expected when he established the Instrument Alliance.

More and more geniuses are constantly emerging, and they are often not as unique as the smelters of the past, but are compatible with several veins. And this is also the effect that Ye Yuntian wanted to see when he established the Instrument Alliance, the leader of the alliance He hoped that after the establishment of the Instrument Alliance, the smelters of the whole continent would become a family, and the various veins would no longer cherish themselves, which was difficult to achieve among the sects, but in the Instrument Alliance, the alliance leader saw success.

Although not all smelters agreed with the idea of the alliance leader, the benefits brought by the appearance of geniuses were something that none of the veins could refuse, so although it was divided into eight smelting veins at that time, in fact, the independence between the veins was not as great as when the alliance was first established.

That year, the old man happened to be nine hundred years old, and he happened to step into the Holy Realm, which was considered young among the martial artists of the Holy Realm, and it was not long after that that two geniuses appeared in the water refining vein.

The forty-year-old sixth-order smelter, although it was not as good as the record set by the Instrument Alliance Master Ye Yuntian, who had become a legend in the smelting world, but this realm was unique in the Instrument Alliance at that time, and the two of them were even regarded as the smelters who were most likely to keep up with the Alliance Master's footsteps at that time.

"Eh, that Mizukawa-senpai, can you interrupt?"

A word abruptly interrupted Shui Chuan's narration, and in an instant, both Dark Forest, who was listening carefully, and Shui Chuan, who was the narrator, turned their eyes to the source of the voice - Lin Liang with an embarrassed face.

"I don't mean anything else, I just want to know what the record set by our alliance leader in the smelting realm is?"

"Sixteen-year-old third-order smelter, twenty-year-old fifth-order smelter, twenty-eight-year-old seventh-order smelting master, forty-year-old eight-year-old eighth-order eighth-order smelter, and then visited all the smelting factions on the mainland, spent more than thirty years stepping into the ninth-order smelter realm, and at the same time broke through the emperor realm. ”

Shui Chuan's voice was calm, but it set off a storm in the hearts of Lin Liang and Dark Lin, needless to say how difficult this record is, at least no one has been able to break it so far.

And what surprised Lin Liang was that the Emperor Ye Yuntian was a twenty-year-old fifth-order smelter, and Yue Xian'er, who was bent on surpassing him, was now also a twenty-year-old, twenty-year-old quasi-fifth-order smelter, which was extremely close to Ye Yuntian's record, no wonder Yue Xian'er had such strong confidence!

Compared to Lin Liang's side, Dark Lin was listening quietly from beginning to end, after all, the evil spirit, that is, Shui Chuan's evil thought clone, had escaped from the Cloud Dream Realm, even if Dark Lin was His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, but he had to give Qin Tianjian an explanation on this matter.

After answering Lin Liang's question, Shui Chuan sighed and spoke again: "One of those two is named Dorank, and the other is named Li Quan, and the two of them finally chose to enter my water refining lineage, and at the same time, because of their amazing talents, the two of them fell under me and became my only two apprentices. ”

"I have to say that Dorunk and Li Quan's talents are indeed very strong, just relying on a broken book of popular basic smelting techniques, they actually became sixth-order smelters, which was impossible to do at that time and even now. ”

"So after the two of them worshipped me as a teacher, I taught me the smelting technique of the water refining vein, and they did show their extraordinary talent, all kinds of key points, as long as you say it once, you can immediately understand it, even I am sighing for myself!"

Maybe it's because of the jealousy of talents, the more geniuses they are, the more tribulations they will suffer, after entering the first vein of water refining, after a full twenty years, Dorunk and Li Quan are still in the realm of sixth-order smelters, no one knows why, although such a situation is normal for ordinary smelters.

Speaking of this, Shui Chuan said with some self-deprecation: "In the past thousands of years in this Cloud Dream Realm, I sometimes think that the reason why the two of them have ended up where they are now may be their talents that far surpass others. ”

So at that time, I suggested that they go to other veins to exchange smelting experiences and techniques, after all, communication and borrowing is the easiest way to improve themselves, and both of them also went, and when they came back, they all looked like they had gained something, and at the same time started the retreat.

However, another ten years have passed, and when they came out, there was no change, and they were still sixth-order smelters, and at this time, everyone began to stop paying attention to them, after all, judging from their current performance, these two people obviously lacked stamina, not to mention that they were already people in the same vein of water refining.

At that time, I happened to have some problems with my cultivation and was anxious to solve them in retreat, so I talked to the two of them before the retreat, and both Dorangk and Li Quan said that they wanted to rest for a while, marry a wife and have children, and stop touching smelting for the time being.

And what happened after this became a stain that could not be erased from the top and bottom of the water refining line, including me, and it also caused today's situation.
