As the flames intersected, the spiritual material slowly transformed into a half-foot-long carving knife.
Tan Yuan, who was observing from the side, had a glint in his eyes.
This carving knife was very small, and the blade was extremely thin.
This item was obviously intended to be used in conjunction with the Microscopic Eye!
A tremor ran through him.
A hint of envy flashed across his face.
As a sage-level refiner, his knowledge was unmatched by anyone else present.
Even if the value of this carving knife could not be compared to the Microscopic Eye, it could still fetch a huge amount of wealth.
The refining of a carving knife was quick.
There really wasn’t much technical skill involved in this carving knife.
In just a moment, a half-foot-long, inch-thick carving knife with a needle tip appeared in Yu Changdao’s hand.
“Refining complete, please inspect.”
Yu Changdao heaved a sigh of relief and took a step back.
He had done everything he could. The rest would depend on the outcome.
His gaze fell on the faces of the other refiners present, then he saw Han Muye smiling at him. Yu Changdao’s whole body trembled. Unexpectedly, he was feeling overwhelmed with emotion, and for a moment, his eyes reddened.
After cultivating for so many years, he had never pushed himself as he did
today.
It wasn’t about struggling desperately or refining skills.
What were they fighting for?
For wealth?
It was not that.
He had thought of relying on this carving knife to make a lot of money, but he had never thought of how much he could make. He glanced up at Han Muye, suddenly understanding.
He understood.
He was fighting for his beliefs!
He was fighting for the possibility that he could also refine a patented item.
When he had that ambition, he truly gave his all!
“Buzz!”
With this realization, layers of golden light flashed around Yu Changdao.
A breakthrough in cultivation!
An increase in comprehension!
In the eyes of all the refiners present, Yu Changdao’s cultivation advanced another level, and his refining strength and comprehension also improved.
Level seven!
With his comprehension, Yu Changdao stepped into level seven!
A Level 7 refining master had more profound spiritual and physical strength, deeper understanding of cultivation, and could produce more and higher-level battle puppets and battle armors.
“This… this is really enviable…” Wu Hua looked enviously at Yu Changdao, who was standing there in a daze, surrounded by golden light.
Even if the patent trial failed, with an increase in cultivation comprehension, it was still worth it.
The surrounding refiners looked at Yu Changdao in surprise.
This was a level seven refining master!
From today onwards, PaG.o.da City would have its second level-seven refiner.
This meant that the Alliance of Refining Masters in PaG.o.da City was flourishing.
The surrounding refiners had deeper feelings for Yu Changdao after he advanced to level seven.
“Buzz!”
Spiritual light fell in front of Yu Changdao, just like when Han Muye applied for the patent trial. This was a comparison.
A moment later, a set of data appeared.
Over 350 overlapping spiritual patterns, and over 800 similar models of carving knives.
A trace of disappointment flashed across Yu Changdao’s face. Then he looked up and smiled.
“Hehe, there’s still a chance,” Tan Yuan said earnestly, trying to comfort him.
He would have to work with Yu Changdao in the future.
“As a tool category, this carving knife has overlaps and similarities, which can enhance the display purpose section and supplement the patent trial,” Tan Yuan said, raising his hand, and a light screen enveloped the carving knife in front of him.
“Who will demonstrate?” Tan Yuan looked around.
Who will?
Yu Changdao hurriedly said, “Let’s have a first-level refiner.”
He added, “It’s best if they have mastered simple spiritual pattern engraving.”
A level one refining master who had mastered the engraving of spiritual patterns.
Among the eager crowd, only three people walked forward.
In PaG.o.da City, there were not many level one refiners who could master the engraving of spiritual patterns.
This was a small city. Its foundation was too weak.
“Su Jiyang, come here. I remember that you’ve learned how to engrave floating spiritual patterns,” Yu Changdao looked at a young man in his thirties and said.
The young man nodded nervously. Then he walked forward and reached out to hold the carving knife.
He took out a flat piece of iron with one hand and placed it in the light screen.
Everything in the light screen would be reflected and used as evidence for the patent trial.
“Wait a minute,” Yu Changdao said. “Put on the Microscopic Eye and use the origin stones to activate the spiritual array on this carving knife.” “If you want to engrave spiritual patterns, engrave as many as you can.”
However, he still followed Yu Changdao’s instructions and took out the Microscopic Eye distributed by the workshop and wore it in front of his right eye.
However, he still followed Yu Changdao’s instructions and took out the Microscopic Eye distributed by the workshop and wore it in front of his right eye.
He took out other low-level origin stone and pressed it on the end of the
carving knife.
The carving knife flashed with golden light and gathered at the edge of the blade.
The Microscopic Eye lit up.
Su Jiyang seemed to be a little unused to it. He held the carving knife and made a few feints before pressing it on the fine iron plate in front of him.
The carving knife moved around with a sizzling sound.
In the workshop, everyone’s eyes were fixed on the iron plate.
After ten breaths, Su Jiyangs hand stopped.
An agile floating spiritual pattern was carved.
However, outsiders would not be able to tell that he had inscribed a spiritual pattern.
Because this carving knife was really thin.
Taking a deep breath, Su Jiyang continued to engrave.
His speed increased.
Ten breaths for one spiritual pattern.
Eight breaths for one spiritual pattern.
Five breaths.
Three breaths.
In the end, every movement of the carving knife in his hand produced a rune.
The refined iron plate slowly floated up.
The refined iron plate seemed to be covered with faint, almost invisible light patterns.
Fifteen minutes later, Su Jiyang stopped regretfully.
He heaved a sigh of relief and shook his head. He put away the Microscopic Eye and looked at the carving knife in his hand before looking at the refined iron plate in front of him.
His eyes widened as he muttered softly, “380 floating spiritual patterns? How is that possible?”
It was only half a foot in diameter and there were more than 300 spiritual patterns engraved on it.
This was something that no one dared to imagine.
Even sixth or seventh-level refining masters would find it difficult to achieve.
To engrave so many spiritual patterns in such a small s.p.a.ce required tremendous mental effort.
“Buzz!”
With a loud bang, a message was transmitted from the light screen.
“You’ve pa.s.sed the patent trial!” Tan Yuan looked at Yu Chang Dao happily and said, “Elder Yu, congratulations!
“Your carving knife is perfect with the Microscopic Eye.”
He pa.s.sed!
Pa.s.sed the patent trial!
In the future, he would also be a patented refining master!
Yu Changdao!s hands and feet trembled and his lips twitched.
No one laughed at his loss of composure.
“I’ll publish the patent for this carving knife and see how much each side offers,” Tan Yuan said with a smile. Then he stretched out his hand and pointed at a spiritual light.
If he wanted to become a true patent master, he still needed to pa.s.s this step.
Only patents worth 100 million origin coins could be considered qualified patents.
Only then could one obtain the t.i.tle of Patent Master.
However, Tan Yuan was no longer worried.
The workshop of the Jujin Trading Company forked out 100 billion origin coins every year as an innovation reward.
Today, Yu Changdao had refined this carving knife that was extremely compatible with the Microscopic Eye.
Even if no one bid, the Jujin Trading Company would still bid 100 million.
Moreover, those large cities were not stupid.
With the help of the Microscopic Eye, this carving knife could inscribe more than 300 spiritual patterns in an instant. Furthermore, it could be done by a level one refining master.
Such a function was enough to overturn traditional refining methods.
“Buzz!”
As the spiritual light dissipated, many light spots on the light screen disappeared.
It didn’t matter. Most people didn’t understand the value of this carving knife.
Half an hour later, a spiritual light flashed.
“River Market City bid 200 million to buy the exclusive refining rights of the carving knife. 200 million!
“Buzz!”
Light screens rose one after another.
Numerous messages came through.
100 million.
200 million.
300 million.
Wu Hua widened his eyes and looked at Yu Changdao enviously.
“Brother Yu, you’re really rich…”
Just the direct purchase of the patent fetched such a high price. It was uncertain how much more he could earn from other patent transfers in the future.
This was really going to happen!
“Elder Yu, it’s up to you to decide.”
Tan Yuan also looked at Yu Changdao enviously.
As long as this level six, no, level seven refiner casually agreed, he could become richer than him, a vitality refiner.
In the workshop, everyone looked at Yu Changdao.
Yu Changdao shook his head.
He looked at Han Muye and said softly, “Chief, please arrange it for me.
“My mind is blank right now, and I can’t make a judgment.”
His words made the refiners around him smile and nod.
Who wouldn’t feel overwhelmed with such a huge fortune dropped on their head…
“Okay.” Han Muye nodded and looked at the messages on the light beams.
“l suggest you sell it..”
