After a moment's consideration, Nangong Qingyue said softly, "Your Majesty, the situation of the Sword Casting Manor is rather special. I'm afraid Your Majesty will need to go there in person to bring the Sword Casting Manor into our Taichu Dynasty."
"oh?"
Li Jing said calmly.
"The Sword Forging Manor is extremely powerful."
"Not as good as the Evergreen Sect and the Beast Taming Sect."
"The entire Sword Forging Manor has as many as twenty-six sword forgers at the Nascent Soul Realm level alone."
"Two swordsmiths at the Cave Heaven Realm level."
Nangong Qingyue said with a solemn expression, "The reason why Sword Forging Manor is not among the nine holy lands is simply because Sword Forging Manor keeps a low profile."
Like the Evergreen Sect, the Sword Forging Manor did not control the mortal dynasty.
The swordsmiths of the Sword Forging Manor are a group of people who are immersed in the art of weapon forging. Apart from forging various magical artifacts, they do not care about anything else in their daily lives.
With the strength of the Sword Forging Manor, no sect dared to offend them.
Even the nine holy lands can only try to curry favor with the Sword Forging Manor.
"interesting."
Li Jing smiled and said, "What I like are pure swordsmiths like this."
Only these dedicated swordsmiths can create such exquisite pieces.
So I understand what you mean. The people of the Sword Forging Manor are low-key, and apart from being immersed in the art of weapon forging, they don't care about anything else.
In addition, their Sword Forging Manor has forged countless magical artifacts, so all cultivators are begging the Sword Forging Manor to buy magical artifacts from them.
This means they have no shortage of money, which in turn means they have no desires or wants.
Even if your Sky Patrol Division wanted to persuade the Sword Forging Manor, there's nothing you can do.
The Sword Forging Manor is called the Sword Forging Manor, and the weapon refiners are all called Sword Forgers.
However, it is not that the Sword Forging Manor is only good at forging sword-type magical artifacts.
In fact, the Sword Forging Manor can forge any kind of magical artifact.
It is called Sword Forging Manor because its founder was a swordsmith.
Moreover, he was the most talented swordsmith in the Burial Ground of Immortals, who forged a top-grade spiritual weapon, which was also the only top-grade spiritual weapon in the entire Burial Ground of Immortals.
This top-grade spiritual weapon is the prized possession of the Sword Forging Manor, the Peerless Holy Sword!
"Your Majesty is wise."
Nangong Qingyue said with a look of admiration.
"Nangong Qingyue, come with me. We'll go to the Sword Forging Manor and meet the manor's lord."
Li Jing stood up and spoke to Nangong Qingyue.
The two swordsmiths at the Cave Heaven Realm level in Sword Forging Manor are none other than the manor lord, Tie Ao.
Tai Shuming, the Grand Elder of the Sword Casting Manor.
Among them, Tie Ao was the strongest, being at the peak of the third level of the Cave Heaven Realm.
Tai Shuming, the Grand Elder of the Sword Casting Manor, is at the Lesser Completion of the Second Stage of the Cave Heaven Realm.
Given the level of weapon crafting at the Sword Forging Manor, it was already worthwhile for Li Jing to make the trip himself.
The Primordial Dynasty now has the Beast Taming Sect, which specializes in taming demonic beasts, and the Evergreen Sect, which specializes in cultivating spiritual plants and herbs. What it lacks is a sect that refines elixirs and a sect that forges magical artifacts.
Among them, the Beast Taming Sect and the Evergreen Sect are slightly weaker, while the sects that refine pills and forge magical artifacts are not weak.
These two sects are the Pill Cauldron Sect and the Sword Casting Manor.
Similar to the Sword Casting Manor, the Dan Ding Sect does not have any mortal dynasties under its command; it is rooted within the mortal dynasties.
Similarly, the strength of the Dan Ding Sect is also extremely powerful.
However, the strength of the Dan Ding Sect is different from that of the Sword Casting Manor.
Sword Casting Manor is powerful on its own, while Pill Cauldron Sect has recruited a large number of powerful retainers, including those at the Cave Heaven Realm level.
Furthermore, since the Dan Ding Sect is an alchemy sect, even the nine holy lands dare not easily offend it.
After all, being skilled in alchemy means that the Dan Ding Sect is also skilled in traditional Chinese medicine, and medicine and poison are inseparable.
Besides being skilled in alchemy, the Dan Ding Sect is also adept at making and using poisons.
Who would dare to offend such a sect easily?
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will obey your command."
Nangong Qingyue said with utmost respect.
"Lead the way."
Li Jing said calmly.
"promise."
Nangong Qingyue responded and then disappeared into the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Li Jing moved swiftly, following Nangong Qingyue as they left Yanjing City and headed towards the Sword Casting Manor.
Sword Casting Manor is located in Sword Casting City within the territory of the Great Zhou Kingdom.
This Sword Forging City was built by the Sword Forging Manor. After thousands of years of development, it has become an enormous city.
The entire Sword Forging City is inhabited by countless independent cultivators, or descendants of generations of sword forgers from the Sword Forging Manor.
Sword Forging Manor rarely recruits disciples from outside; they usually recruit disciples from within Sword Forging City.
An hour later.
Sword Forging City.
A colossal city, seemingly forged from steel, appeared before Li Jing's eyes.
"This sword-forging city alone must house hundreds of thousands of people, right?"
Li Jing gazed at the distant Sword Forging City and asked Nangong Qingyue.
"Your Majesty, that is indeed the case."
"Nearly a million people live in the entire Sword Forging City."
Nangong Qingyue said with a slight frown.
Sword Forging City is actually a major reason why it was difficult to persuade Sword Forging Manor to join the Primordial Dynasty.
The relationship between Sword Forging Manor and the entire Sword Forging City is extremely close, and it is impossible for them to easily sever ties with Sword Forging City and head to Yanjing City.
"Let's go into town."
Li Jing said something to Nangong Qingyue and then walked towards the gate of Sword Forging City.
The gates of Sword Forging City are open.
Although Sword Forging City belongs to the Sword Forging Manor, one can see soldiers in armor and armed with weapons guarding the city gate. These are the Sword Forging Guards established by the Sword Forging Manor.
The armor worn by the Sword Forging Guards and the weapons they hold are both magical artifacts.
Moreover, Li Jing could tell at a glance that this was not the lowest-grade low-level magic weapon, but rather at least a mid-grade magic weapon.
It must be said that the Sword Casting Manor is indeed very wealthy and powerful.
In addition, the Sword Forging Guards all start at the Opening Acupoint Realm, and the Sword Forging Guard generals responsible for guarding the city gates have even reached the Nascent Soul Realm, using low-grade spiritual artifacts that only cultivators at the Transformation God Realm can afford.
"Your Majesty, the Sword Forging Guards of Sword Forging Manor number a total of fifty thousand."
"They are a true elite force!"
"The Sword Forging Guard has forty-nine commanders at the Nascent Soul stage."
"A Grand Commander at the peak of the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, who could step into the Cave Heaven Realm at any time."
"The Sword Forging Guards of Sword Forging Manor alone number fifty at the Nascent Soul stage."
"If such an elite army could become part of our Taichu Dynasty's army, it would greatly enhance the strength of our Taichu Dynasty!"
Nangong Qingyue transmitted her voice to Li Jing.
After entering Sword Forging City, Nangong Qingyue and Li Jing always used the technique of transmitting sound secretly to avoid being overheard by outsiders.
