Chapter 1147: Chapter 230: The Blacksmiths’ Reactions, Jiumu Qing’s Confusion

Below are the translations of the provided text:

All the blacksmiths replying below are full of envy.

"Immortal Venerates eating this stuff at the dining table?"

"The big shots eating this at the dining table, it probably has no effect anymore, it’s just all about gourmet taste and high-class prestige!"

"Sob sob, what a waste of food, what a waste of food."

"Ridiculous! Raising fish in the River of Time? Poverty has constrained my imagination; I guess this fish isn’t that fierce. If only it were fiercer, it would specialize in eating high-dimensional True Immortals wandering in the River of Time."

"Even more ridiculous, why not use some parallel world as the eggshell for an eagle’s egg? Wouldn’t the civilians of that world be wiped out? Killing the people of a world, that’s too ruthless."

"At least the Life Immortal Venerate is sincere, mastering life, respecting life, they honestly grow fruit that can extend your lifespan."

"The one above, do you really think the Life Immortal Venerate is some kind of good thing? They give you lifespan-extending fruit, but who knows, they might also have life-diminishing fruit? And fruit that drains the life of a world to grow?"

"Exactly, don’t forget the Embers in the Nine-State world, so dark, the outside must be dark too, to Immortal Venerates, all beings are just roadside weeds!"

...

These people have gone off-topic again.

They are frantically discussing the structure of things, that complex and thrilling worldview, which deeply strikes their hearts.

No wonder they say we are in the End of Dharma Era!

They really have a grand perspective, multi-dimensional timelines, fish in the River of Time, immortal fruits in the life medicine garden, ferocious birds that devour dimensional bubbles...

Isn’t it extraordinarily exciting?

These settings are so enticing.

In contrast, Ning Zheng, looking at these three introductions, first reacted:

"Sure enough, having a Jiumu Qing is great, whatever prehistoric good stuff is obtained, there is someone who can explain, so we’re not completely in the dark."

"Prehistoric times are a bit terrifying; our Sword Casting Manor cannot afford to make small moves, their keen detection ability, governing multi-dimensional timelines, is no weaker than the current Immortal Venerates, those who play destiny divination."

Ning Zheng browsed a few more posts and found blacksmiths chatting; business at Xirong Manor had already started declining.

Currently, the situation is that True Immortals, all are entering the Time Ancient Tomb in their true form, personally obtaining opportunities...

Even advanced members at the True Immortal level are not coming anymore, including Mo Mei and True Man Danding.

Now only Human Immortals, Celestial Immortals, these cultivators, come through this platform indirectly to explore the Time Ancient Tomb, it’s safer this way.

"Suddenly it’s not lively anymore."

Ning Zheng’s perspective kept switching, "Feels like our current Immortal Realm, Netherworld, and every world, all seem like empty-nest elders."

He was satisfied with spying on the screen, then for once didn’t cultivate, directly lay down for a good sleep.

What prehistoric Immortal Venerate? Current Immortal Venerate? Let’s talk after waking up.

...

The next morning.

Ning Zheng was refreshed, stepping through the gates of Sword Casting Manor.

He glanced at the update log in the plaza, then withdrew his gaze.

"Synthesis, definitely need synthesis!"

"Good stuff! This little bird!"

In the square of Xirong Manor, a group of blacksmiths were happily holding a meeting.

Together they were researching those immortal fruits, immortal fish, and immortal birds.

"First, raise them, you fool! Sustainable development, understand? We are farmers!"

"What use is raising them? They seem not to be working; these things now are just empty shells with little functionality left."

"Raise them first and then talk."

"This little sparrow, adorable indeed."

"They’re world-eaters, fool!"

...

Ning Zheng checked these treasures last night.

He didn’t find any hidden hands in them, probably because they disdain to do so.

After all, they couldn’t even be bothered to divinate Xi Rong...

Besides, probably because those dead prehistoric Immortal Venerates, their methods cannot reach reality.

Even their fish, fruits, birds have only one-thousandth of their power left.

Even their ancient high-minded citizens of the Kong Country could only go sew storage bags... what can be done?

The blacksmiths were diving into their fish, fruits, and birds, but Ning Zheng ignored it, letting the blacksmiths research as he wasn’t interested in them.

Instead, he researched his ten battleships: Yama Hall.

Yesterday, True Man Danding hurriedly delivered the goods and ran off to a dungeon, these ten vehicles Ning Zheng hadn’t personally inspected yet.

He took a look and was very satisfied.

"True Man Danding indeed is professional, technically solid." Ning Zheng tried to drive one himself, found the handling good, quite fond of it.

These days, mortals compare houses and cars.

Cultivators compare Cave Mansions and Immortal Ships.

Now with such a great family, going out without "luxury cars" to negotiate business, to serve as mercenary soldiers, no one pays attention.

After a tour, Ning Zheng left the ten Immortal Ships, suddenly finding himself idle, with nothing to do.

In cultivation, seven hundred Dharma Aspects working together, not needing his physical body...

Going out?

Not daring to venture out.

Only able to stay cooped up in this tomb base camp.

After much pondering, he finally decided, long overdue, to go on a countryside trip with his sister Ning Jiaojiao for three leisurely days.

Ning Jiaojiao had just returned from Su Yuniang’s dungeon team, at a time to relax.

After spending some long-overdue leisurely days with Ning Jiaojiao and the others, he went to chat with his beast Jiumu Qing, to strengthen the bond.

After all, Jiumu Qing’s worth had already been proven by facts.

She was essentially stable at the Immortal Venerate level.

...

Jiumu Sect.

Ning Zheng arrived at the ruins of this sect.

This time looking at the grand ancient Immortal Venerate halls, finally felt real.

It turns out ancient Immortal Venerates were this powerful, previously his own understanding was indeed lacking.

Entering the sect, Ning Zheng saw Jiumu Qing in contemplation, staring at an ancient bronze goddess statue.

"Why are you here?" Jiumu Qing turned around and frowned.

She was not in a good mood.

Evidently, though they were the same person, her tomb was born later due to bad luck... putting her behind Refining Cauldron and Nether Cauldron Immortal Venerates.

Those two Jiumu Qing, ran off to prehistoric times attending banquets, while she could only become half a dead person here.

How could she accept this?

And what angered her most was that she, like Bottle-Storage Immortal Venerate, was deceived by Xi Rong, now only Half-Awakened realized it.

"Why, do you also want to go to the Time Ancient Tomb?" Ning Zheng asked.

"Can I go?" Jiumu Qing couldn’t help asking.

"No," Ning Zheng said calmly, "It’s too dangerous there, you would be killed by another Jiumu Qing who became an Immortal Venerate."

"You feel unlucky for being born late, but have you thought about it? Worse off Jiumu Qing were born early and directly killed by another self!"

"Indeed."

Jiumu Qing sighed.

She understood how ruthless she herself could be.

Though she envied them returning to their hometown, given a chance to go to the Time Ancient Tomb she certainly wouldn’t dare.

Currently, upon hearing about the Immortal Venerate banquet, she was already completely lost.
