Then, what she was worried about happened!
“BOOM!” Just as Ling Chuxi was retreating with elder Qiu and Qi Tian, a strange light flashed and the pill furnace that was about to be repaired let out a loud bang.
A strong airflow rolled out and sent Zhan Tianhong flying. His head hit the wall, and the entire vip room shook violently.
Ling Chuxi’s reaction was quick and she brought elder Qiu and the others to retreat in time, so they were not affected much. Zhan Xucheng and Wu Zhiyi were standing much closer and were also thrown to the ground by the air wave. When they got up, their faces were also burnt black by the spiritual fire. Wisps of green smoke rose from their heads and they also gave off a burnt smell.
How was this possible? wasn’t he on the verge of success? how did this happen? The two of them opened their mouths and looked at Zhan Tianhong, who was also in a sorry state, getting up from the ground. They were speechless for a long time.
“Hahahaha, you’re worthy of being Grandmaster Gongye’s disciple. Your tool-refining skills are indeed exquisite and peerless. I’ve never seen such a huge commotion when I watched people craft their tools in the past.” Qi Tian was also stunned, but he quickly reacted and laughed out loud. This guy’s mouth was not easy to deal with.
Ling Chuxi also smiled slightly. It was not that she had not encountered a situation where she had failed in refining a weapon, but this was the first time she had seen such an explosion.
Everything had happened so quickly that even Ling Chuxi did not know what had happened. He looked at the great pure Dao heart furnace and saw that it was still intact after such a violent explosion. Only one corner of it was damaged.
Zhan Tianhong stood there in a daze. He looked extremely embarra.s.sed.
He even said that Grandmaster Gongye’s disciple was almost praised to the heavens in the beginning. In the end, the higher he was praised, the more miserably he fell. In any case, this was a resounding slap to the face.
“President Wu, I wonder if Grandmaster Zhan has failed. Is it time for my senior brother Ling to make a move?” Lu Weidong said in a weird tone.
Ling Chuxi knew that Lu Weidong had good intentions, but to be honest, she had not found out what was wrong. Even if she were to take action, she would still fail, so she did not respond.
“How can this be called a failure? it’s inevitable that there will be some accidents during the process of refining. Look, Grandmaster Zhan’s smithing array hasn’t disappeared yet, which means that the process is only halfway through.” Wu Zhiyi pointed at the runes formation outside the furnace that had not completely disappeared.
Businessmen pursued profits, and he said that to please Zhan Tianhong. From his point of view, it was impossible for Ling Chuxi to repair this spiritual weapon. If both of them failed, they would still have to continue to compete for more money. And from the previous situation, Zhan Tianhong and the others clearly did not bring many spirit stones with them. As long as Ling Chuxi took out another 1.8 million, she would be able to trample on them.
After weighing the pros and cons, he felt that it would be better to cling to Zhan Tianhong.
“That’s right, that’s right. Uncle Zhan’s artifact-refining array hasn’t disappeared yet, which means that he’s only used half of his artifact-refining technique, but there was a little accident in the middle. How can it be considered a failure?” Zhan Xucheng quickly added.
This compet.i.tion wasn’t just about the Black Tortoise stone. It was also about the twenty-five million spirit stones and his face. How could he admit defeat so easily?
Zhan Tianhong didn’t say anything. As a refiner, he knew that he had failed. However, if he admitted defeat like this, where would he put his face? Therefore, he tacitly agreed to their words.
