Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 995 - 845: Happy National Day! (Part 2)

Except for leaving two trusted aides, all other staff were given time off to rest.

Firstly, he did not want the industry secrets to be leaked to anyone;

Secondly, Fu Qingzhou had a reputation, and if it were known that his design of the Immortal Ship had issues, future business would be hard to conduct, so it’s best to host Mr. Jiang with fewer people present. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Thus, when Hou Ze arrived, leading Jiang Yuan while a golden-haired little monkey snored soundly on his head, he found the Immortal Boat Workshop, perched alone on a small mountain flying in mid-air, surprisingly deserted!

This scene was rare, especially as the shopkeeper Wu Chen and chief artifact refining master Fu Qingzhou were standing at the entrance, welcoming.

"Usually it’s not easy to see these two, especially Fu Qingzhou. Many sect families couldn’t invite him, no matter how hard they tried," Hou Ze whispered. "It seems the Immortal Ship of the gentleman has truly astonished them!"

And indeed, Mr. Jiang’s novel ideas in creating an innovative Immortal Ship would surely leave anyone curious to ponder over it.

If only he had the chance to ride it personally; Hou Ze felt he could boast about it for a year or two.

"Welcome Mr. Jiang, to visit us despite your busy schedule. The Immortal Boat Workshop is simply aglow with your presence!" Wu Chen, small in stature but with a big smile, greeted warmly.

Fu Qingzhou had imagined countless times what this mysterious cultivator might look like, but he never expected him to be a young-looking Human Race cultivator, with not the slightest hint of Spiritual Power fluctuation!

Also a cultivator from the Otherworld? Surely not a disciple of the Ancient Ten Great Sects?

The grudges between the Human Race and Demon Race in the wilderness are something any cultivator living there would have heard of.

Taking a deep breath, Fu Qingzhou thought, after all, I’m not a local demon, the enmity between the two races doesn’t concern me. If I were to learn and apprentice, there shouldn’t be racial grudge issues, the only thing to consider is whether Mr. Jiang would disdain my lack of talent.

"I wasn’t present then, but the shop staff told me that after the gentleman looked at this latest personal Immortal Ship, he immediately pointed out its shortcomings."

Following a brief exchange of pleasantries, Wu Chen eagerly led him to the beautiful and exquisite Immortal Ship nearby, humbly asking, "Could I trouble the gentleman to explain more clearly which part of this Immortal Ship has a problem?"

As the star product in the shop, he was hoping to make a fortune with this Immortal Ship. After discovering flaws, not to mention making money, if unresolved, even his reputation could be tarnished.

"Does Daoist Fu still have no clue?" Jiang Yuan kicked the ball back, thinking to himself, how should I know?

Though he had seen the paper-made blueprint, firstly because it didn’t connect with the artifact refiner’s blueprint; secondly, what he made was the version with a free Gundam skin, which was a world apart from this big guy in front of him.

Tossing the question back, he saw Fu Qingzhou’s face slightly flush, shaking his head with a bitter smile, "Really don’t know..."

Saying this, he took out a thick stack of full, drawn sketches from his Storage Bag, "I even disassembled the entire Immortal Ship, reviewed each detail of the components, yet couldn’t find the problem. Would the gentleman please shed light?"

Wu Chen immediately bowed profoundly, promising, "With the gentleman’s guidance, Immortal Boat Workshop will surely present a great recompense!"

"Alas..." Jiang Yuan sighed heavily.

Looking at the exquisite Immortal Ship ahead, he felt he could no longer keep up the act, yet had to carry on, managing to generate from the Information Collection Device another version of the improved Immortal Ship blueprint without the skin.

"Daoist Fu should be very clear that every artifact refiner has a different understanding and application of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, with different pursuits of the Great Way, even among members of the same sect, mutual instruction could be impossible, let alone you and I aren’t acquainted."

Saying a few words to deflect, he handed over a neatly arranged glowing book of drawings, "This is an unauthorized modification I made after seeing the design and construction of this Immortal Ship by Daoist, perhaps it can resolve Daoist’s doubts."

"Hiss!" Fu Qingzhou, seeing the complete Immortal Ship blueprint, was instantly stunned.

For artifact refiners, blueprints are equivalent to cultivation techniques for other cultivators, the more advanced, the rarer.

Though he couldn’t boast about anything else, the Immortal Ship he designed and built, even with flaws, was considered an above-average Magical Treasure. Furthermore, the other party made improvements to resolve hidden issues; such a blueprint, with what could it be exchanged?

After all, its value cannot be calculated solely by the blueprint, but also includes Mr. Jiang’s insights into artifact refining, exceedingly precious!

As a renowned master in artifact refining over the years, Fu Qingzhou naturally wouldn’t take advantage and immediately accepted with both hands, delightedly asking, "What does the gentleman require to trade? Immortal Jade or blueprints or something else?"

Jiang Yuan asked back, "I wonder if Daoist Fu could create an Immortal Ship capable of traversing the Void?"

Indeed, masters are masters; these ordinary things don’t even pique their interest, opening the discussion with traversing the Void with Divine Artifacts!

"I’ve been passionate about Immortal Ships since childhood, specializing in artifact refining for them. I’ve also researched and designed Immortal Ships capable of traversing the Void, but..." Fu Qingzhou smiled bitterly, "Setting aside those decorative details, genuinely able to traverse or even cross the Void for long durations must at least be in the half-step Divine Artifact domain.

If I could figure it out by myself, I would discover my own path, becoming a ninth-grade artifact refiner.

Over the years, I’ve inquired into related information across various worlds, but ultimately in vain, not even finding one or two pages. Could it be the gentleman has touched upon the path to forging Divine Artifacts?"

Looking at his eyes filled with gleaming light, Jiang Yuan suddenly had a stroke of inspiration, "I do have a blueprint for the Immortal Shuttle, but..."
