One person: After starting with the academic atmosphere, I'll take down Xia He!

Ma Xianhong tried to recruit Ma Long to Biyou Village, saying he wanted to protect him, but Ma Long retorted, "Am I that weak?"

Haha! So that's what the Ma Long brothers were worried about.

I'll put it into three reasons.

The first problem is that your power is too weak; it's newly established and not worth worrying about at all.

Look at the four great families. The reason they are so strong is because they have accumulated the efforts of several generations and have blood ties. Then look at the Tang Clan, Longhu Mountain, and Wuhou Sect. They have a thousand-year heritage and profound foundation.

Building power takes time and effort; you can't do it now!

'Secondly, you not only possess the Feng Hou Qi Men, but also the Tong Tian Lu.'

Who wouldn't be envious if someone possessed two unique skills?

Moreover, the greatest benefit comes from targeting you, so you must be extremely careful.

Come to my village, I can protect you!

"Old Ma! If you want to protect me, why don't you just join my Salvation Palace?"

Wouldn't it be wonderful to be my follower?

Ma Long couldn't understand Ma Xianhong's thought process. Did protecting others mean they had to go to his village?

'Forehead……

I really want to be with you, but unfortunately it's not possible!

This brings us to the third reason: I really need to fix a furnace!

"I don't care if it's true or not," Ma Long said helplessly.

"Brother Ma, I'll say it again, I'm really not a contractor?"

My Salvation Palace is dedicated to saving this world, upholding justice, and maintaining balance!

"I'm not here to fix boilers for the supernatural world!"

"Hey! Brother Ma Long, don't get angry."

My boiler... my furnace is different from others.

I call it the Body-Cultivating Furnace; it carries my…

Ma Long then understood that this cultivation furnace seemed to be extraordinary, a product of Ma Xianhong's painstaking efforts using the Divine Refinement Technique, and it was not yet complete.

"Old Ma! You mean my Qimen Dunjia techniques can help you?"

So that's why I have to go?"

"Yes, Brother Malone, I will never force you to do anything. You can come to the village for sightseeing and observe before deciding whether you want to help me."

Judging from his tone, Ma Long seemed to have a lot of confidence in Biyou Village.

"Old Ma! I'm not asking for an exorbitant amount."

Your Biyou Village isn't close to me at all. I came all this way, tsk tsk...

"How about this, you teach me your Divine Craftsmanship Technique, and I'll go take a look, okay?"

Ma Long truly wants to master the Divine Craftsmanship; he wants to collect all eight extraordinary skills, although he doesn't know what the effects will be after collecting them all.

He didn't want to make the trip to Biyou Village, and he gave this reason to refuse Ma Xianhong.

"Um... Brother Malone, that was great!"

Asking me to bring out my "Divine Machine Refinement" when you're just here for a visit is a bit much.

Okay, here's the deal: if you agree to fix my furnace, I'll offer you my divine skills with both hands, and I guarantee you'll learn!

What the hell!

Ma Long couldn't believe his ears. Was Ma Xianhong really that easy to talk to?

This is a divinely crafted technique! It's one of the Eight Extraordinary Skills!

"Old Ma, aren't you being a bit too generous?"

'Hehe, what's wrong?'

The Divine Refinement Technique isn't actually that powerful; you'll understand once you've seen it for yourself. Refining and controlling objects is not something that can be accomplished in a day.

Although the Divine Refinement Technique can significantly shorten the refining cycle, it cannot change the objective fact that it places extremely high demands on the skill level of the refiner.

It's not something anyone can master and become invincible just by coming along.

Otherwise, my great-grandfather and my grandfather wouldn't have been hunted down and killed.

Think again about Zheng Zibu, who comprehended the Tongtianlu (a magical talisman), and Feng Tianyang, who comprehended the Julingqianjiang (a magical technique for controlling spirits and commanding generals).

"Old Ma, what do you mean? Are you saying the Eight Extraordinary Techniques aren't strong?"

No! The Eight Extraordinary Techniques are very powerful!

However, we cannot put the cart before the horse; I only recently realized the importance of the basics.

To be honest, I've already passed on the Divine Craftsmanship Technique to a few people, but what they've produced is utterly worthless!

It's not that they're not smart, it's that they never had the talent for weapon crafting before, understand?

For example, even if you pass on the Qimen Dunjia technique to me, I still won't be able to use it, and that's the reason.

To a large extent, the strength of the Eight Extraordinary Skills lies in who uses them!

I consider you family, and I can unconditionally give you divine wisdom and even teach you.

But I don't want you to possess too many of the Eight Extraordinary Skills. First, it's like biting off more than you can chew, and second, it's too dangerous for you.

After listening to Ma Long, he pondered for a long time. Ma Xianhong's words were full of friendliness, but I don't know him at all!

"Old Ma, thank you for your heartfelt advice!"

I'm not an unreasonable person, but I really want the Divine Craftsmanship Refinement. Can you give it to me?

'Can!

If you have a compelling reason to receive it, I will give it to you unconditionally!

This sentence made Malone's mind race. What kind of person is this?

What kind of experiences did he have? How many copies of the Divine Calculation Technique were given away by him in this way?

"Brother Ma Long, don't be suspicious. Now that the Divine Strategist has been refined to perfection, I have only sent out two copies, and both were to people who promised to help me. They are very reliable."

I don't want this unique skill to become something commonplace.

Similarly, while I don't expect you to offer the same unconditional support as I do, I still hope you'll visit the village.

"Okay! Old Ma, since you're so enthusiastic, I can't refuse anymore."

Let's exchange WeChat IDs later. I'll go check it out in a couple of days after I finish what I'm doing.

Is it okay if I bring two friends along?

Ma Long accepted Ma Xianhong's invitation because he had no reason to refuse.

'No problem, I trust your friend.'

But it's also agreed that I won't give out Divine Machine Refinement to everyone.

They're coming; I can give them some protective amulets as a greeting gift.

Haha, of course!

It's settled then, a deal!"

It's a deal!

Ma Long hung up the phone and turned to look at Wang Ye and Feng Baobao.

"What do you think of this person? Are we getting too close?"

“Junior Uncle, many of the things he said were heartfelt words, but it was precisely because he said so much that he was also very hurtful.”

He seemed to be hiding something, but he really wanted you to go to his village.

In case there's an ambush...

"Yes, I've thought of that too. After all, we're now in trouble for possessing such a treasure!"

Baby, what do you think?

Ma Long then turned to Feng Baobao, wanting to hear her thoughts.

"Uh, I didn't hear anything suspicious."

I couldn't sense his Qi, so I couldn't judge his presence.

After a moment of thought, Ma Long and his two companions were still unsure if there was anything wrong with it.

"In that case, let's make preparations and go."

It would be best to get my hands on the Divine Refinement Manual; the weapon-refining techniques, hehe!

Besides, we've been training for days, and we need to have some fighting; we're all exhausted.

"Junior Uncle, your close combat skills have improved a lot now. With the addition of Feng Hou and talismans, you are indeed very difficult to deal with."

But don't forget what the old Celestial Master said..."

"I know, I know! It's the foundation of life!"

I get up at five o'clock every morning for an hour of meditation and chanting, without fail!

Ma Long interrupted Wang Ye's instructions, having already realized the importance of this point.
