Gong Yunli suddenly sprayed out the candied fruit in her mouth.
This gentleman, such outrageous words should not be spoken.
Tang Sanjia stared intently at Li Che, "Che, my young friend, do you want to learn?"
Li Cheās heart was suddenly moved.
"Yes."
"But thatās not possible..." Tang Sanjia said regretfully, shaking his head.
Li Che: "..."
If I canāt learn, why mention it at all?
However, Li Che grew curious about this mechanical beast.
He had recently hit a bottleneck studying the "Guanyin Lotus Main Battle Tank"; perhaps this mechanical beast could inspire him.
After some thought, Li Che was not stingy, taking out a design blueprint of the Guanyin Lotus Main Battle Tank from his Qiankun Space.
"Elder Tang, I am currently studying a mechanism and have encountered a bottleneck that I cannot break through. Could you please give me some advice?"
Li Che thought about it and handed the blueprint to Tang Sanjia.
Tang Sanjia raised an eyebrow.
He slurped his tea a bit.
Then, putting down his teacup nonchalantly, he took the mechanical blueprint handed over by Li Che.
Although Li Che had some insights into mechanisms, he had, after all, learned from basic mechanism books like "Tangās Mechanism Essentials."
What difficulty could his designed mechanism have?
He could give pointers in minutes.
This was also why Tang Sanjia had a very high regard for young people like Li Che who were keen on mechanisms.
With anyone else...
If they dared to hand him a blueprint, he would literally smash it right away.
Having taken the blueprint...
Tang Sanjiaās gaze fell upon it, and in the next instant, his eyes sharpened...
"This..."
His eyes turning deep and dark, completely captivated by the blueprint, he could not avert his gaze at all.
His mind was thoroughly seduced by the ingenious design on the blueprint.
Li Che drank his tea, not in a hurry at all.
Gong Yunli was somewhat confused, merely amazed by how impressive Li Cheās achievements in mechanisms seemed, managing to immerse Tang Ridge Master in them.
Seeing Tang Ridge Master seeming to turn into a statue...
Gong Yunli cast a probing glance.
"Whatās with Tang Ridge Master?"
Li Che glanced at her.
Such a dizzy, carefree Minor Supervisor, truly carefree.
He had been so straightforward with Tang Ridge Master, and Gong Yunli still hadnāt guessed the fact that he, Li Che, was the Bull Demon?
Never mind...
Fools have their own foolish luck.
"Nothing much, heās probably analyzing and researching..."
"Minor Supervisor, itās normal for you not to understand mechanisms since you donāt deal with them."
Li Che said with a gentle smile.
Gong Yunli immediately got defensive: "Who are you looking down on?"
She stood up and walked behind Tang Ridge Master, glancing at the blueprint.
Oh dearā
Gong Yunli hastily shifted her gaze away; her mind seemed to have encountered a very complex knowledge that she couldnāt grasp at all.
"Forget it, you guys talk... Iāll go out for a walk."
Gong Yunli shook her head, finding an excuse to step out for some fresh air.
About the duration of burning one incense stick later.
Tang Sanjiaās burly body slightly moved, his eyes flickering, and after a long while, he let out a breath in awe.
"If Iām not mistaken, this mechanism... is just a base, right?"
"And the item it carries was modified from āGuanyin Blood Lotusā."
Tang Sanjia returned the blueprint to Li Che.
His expression was complicated.
Admiration, regret, pain, sorrow...
Such a mix of emotions, complex as if blend of soy sauce and vinegar.
Such a brilliant mechanism genius.
What a pity...
Such a wimp!
Tang Sanjia tugged at his beard, the Tang Family had already declined and perished, why should he still care about those old rules?
He needed a mechanism genius like Li Che, so badly!
"Indeed, Elder, you have keen eyes."
Li Che said with a smile.
"The lethality is great... may I take a closer look?"
Tang Sanjia said.
Li Che was taken aback, this topic was indeed very presumptuous.
But he seemed to have also heard a different implication in it.
"Yes."
Li Che responded.
The next moment, he tore open the Qiankun Space, taking out the rough prototype of the "Great Avalanche Guanyin Lotus Bullet."
The nearly human-height Guanyin Lotus Bullet appeared in the guest hall.
Tang Sanjia was captivated at just one glance.
A sudden tension and crisis surged in his heart!
This half-human-tall Guanyin Blood Lotus was actually a threat to him!
How was that possible?
Even ten thousand poison-tempered Guanyin Blood Lotuses could not harm a single hair on him.
This was no ordinary Guanyin Blood Lotus!
"It really is modified from the āGuanyin Blood Lotusā; you truly are a genius!"
Tang Sanjia glanced once and perceived the difference.
"Youāve actually integrated Divinity? Took the explosive path?"
"The power is quite impressive."
If it could threaten him, the power was definitely remarkable.
Li Che put away the Guanyin Lotus Bullet, smiled, and clasped his hands, "For now itās just a prototype, but once the final product is out, I can ask for your guidance, Elder."
"Itās a promise!"
Tang Sanjia immediately agreed.
"Whatās given must be returned... Itās not common to reveal oneās mechanisms, but since youāve shown me your treasure, I shall return the favor."
Tang Sanjia took out a gold leather booklet and handed it to Li Che.
Li Cheās eyes narrowed.
"Tang Family true mechanism successor"? Elder...this?"
Wasnāt it said not to be passed on lightly?
"Hahaha, I have seen your magnificent mechanism and am returning the favor. Isnāt it fair?"
Tang Sanjia stroked his beard.
Li Che smiled, "Itās fair, thank you very much for the gift, Elder."
Tang Sanjia shook his head, and his robust form suddenly seemed to diminish, "Thereās nothing left to hide, the Tang Family...is no more."
"Better to pass this method to a talented youth than bury it with me."
"If it can help you perfect that mechanism, consider it my contribution to the way of mechanisms."
Tang Sanjia laughed.
"Of course, the Tang Family true mechanism includes records about mechanical beasts..."
"If one day, you could make a mechanical beast... I have a favor... needing your help."
Tang Sanjia became serious.
Upon hearing this, Li Che did not immediately agree.
"Donāt worry, itās just helping me... to repair a mechanism."
Repairing a mechanism?
A thought passed through Li Cheās mind, and he no longer hesitated, nodding his agreement.
"Then thank you very much for the gift, Elder."
Tang Sanjia stroked his beard and burst into laughter, clearly in a great mood.
"Li Che, just take on the name of Wood Carving Master of the Divine Carving Ridge, and whatever you need in terms of spiritual wood, you can always come to me."
"In addition, for the mechanisms youāre making, whatever spiritual wood you need, you can also come to me."
"Iāll send our most senior woodcutter to guide you into the mountains to search for and cut down spiritual wood."
"Iām investing in you!"
Upon hearing this, Li Che was immensely surprised.
Making mechanisms required a lot of spiritual wood.
Good spiritual wood was superior to metal.
It meant that his trip to the Divine Carving Ridge had found him an angel investor!
Tang Sanjia and Li Che hit it off immediately, genuinely fond of this young man who understood mechanisms, and he was intrigued by Li Cheās mechanisms.
He was generous with his investments.
Owning the backing of the Divine Carving Ridge, he was never lacking in spiritual wood!
The lack was of mechanism masters like Li Che who could utilize spiritual wood!
"I heard... your daughter has apprenticed under Nan Lihuo, becoming a true successor of the Golden Light Sub-sect?"
"For her future cultivation requirements, Iāve covered everything! Whatever wood carvings she needs, just let her tell me."
Tang Sanjia patted his chest and laughed heartily.
Li Che was truly delighted, as this solved a large problem regarding his daughterās future resource allocation for cultivation.
He was incredibly happy.
Li Che and Tang Sanjia continued to discuss topics on mechanisms for a good while.
Unfortunately, the "Immortal Craft Dao Fruit" did not further progress in maturity.
Clearly, Old Tangās understanding of mechanisms was limited, having been thoroughly exploited by him.
However, Li Che did not mind, holding the "Tang Family true mechanism succession" and such advanced secrets to mechanisms.
Advancing the Immortal Craft Dao Fruit was no longer a problem.
When Gong Yunli strolled back after a while,
He saw the old and young calling each other brothers.
Learning that Li Che had become the nominal Woodcarving Master of the Divine Carving Ridge, also obtaining a fifty percent discount on purchasing spiritual wood from Divine Carving Ridge, and having the privilege to enter Divine Carving Ridge to cut wood at any time...
Gong Yunli felt numb.
He looked at Li Che, feeling that Li Che was radiating.
Was this the legendary charm of a beautiful man?
Li Che selected several types of Nine Luminaries Spiritual Wood in Divine Carving Ridge, Tang Sanjiaās imposing form was bursting with spirit, and with a wave of his large hand, he gave them away!
Until they returned to Golden Light Prefecture City by carriage.
Gong Yunli was still somewhat numb.
He didnāt quite understand how Li Che had managed to win over the temperamental and extremely stingy Master of Divine Carving Ridge, Tang Sanjia?
...
...
Time passed.
Before they knew it, three days had gone by.
In the Golden Light Prefectureās Falling Flower Alley,
Light snow fluttered down, layering thickly.
On Li Cheās figure in the courtyard, a layer of white feathery cloak settled.
Since returning from Divine Carving Ridge, he had been deeply engrossed in studying the "Tang Family true mechanism."
For three days, he was almost in seclusion.
A gentle breeze blew by.
Li Cheās eyes fluctuated slightly.
Slightly opening them,
All the snow in the courtyard instantly evaporated, turning into countless steaming vapors, shrouding the entire yard!
In the depths of Li Cheās eyes, suddenly, brilliant lights flickered.
The next moment, a prompt slowly surfaced before his eyes.
[Dao Fruit: Immortal Craft (lv4,0%)].
