My Master Knows It All

1059: Chapter 276_5 1059: Chapter 276_5 The ten teams made steady progress, delving deeper into the heart of East Breeze.

Moreover, as all the major Immortal Sects obediently handed over resources, the other Immortal Sects came to realize that they too had no choice but to comply.

If they did not surrender their resources, the people of Eastern Wasteland would surely attack them.

When that time came, the other Immortal Sects wouldn’t come to their aid, since they had essentially paid protection money.

Why would the other sects risk their lives if the people of Eastern Wasteland left them alone?

Thus, left with no alternative, the preceding Immortal Sects having surrendered their resources, the remaining ones naturally followed suit and handed over their resources as well.

They also harbored resentment towards the people of Eastern Wasteland—anyone would hate having their resources seized in such a manner.

At the same time, they cursed their former Alliance Hierarch.

Had it not been for that duplicitous leader always instilling the idea that East Breeze was strong and citing various reasons, they would never have attacked the Eastern Wasteland, and perhaps none of what followed would have occurred.

The Craftsman Sect was located on the opposite end of East Breeze, one of the Immortal Sects furthest from Eastern Wasteland.

However, in terms of the number of masters and overall strength, the Craftsman Sect hardly made the cut.

Among the top twenty Immortal Sects of East Breeze, the Craftsman Sect would definitely not be listed.

Yet in East Breeze, the Craftsman Sect was extremely important and held a significant position.

That was because the Craftsman Sect was the foremost sect of East Breeze in forging Divine Weapons.

Previously, some Immortal Sects had desired to annex the Craftsman Sect.

Although not considered strong, the Craftsman Sect had some capabilities, especially during the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, where they had two individuals with the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection.

Others found it troublesome to destroy the Craftsman Sect.

Moreover, the Craftsman Sect maintained good relations with many other sects.

After all, the Divine Weapons they forged were highly praised, and several Immortal Sects even specifically ordered Divine Weapons from them.

If any sect attacked the Craftsman Sect and they asked for aid, countless other sects would rush to their rescue.

Therefore, the other sects only thought about action but never attempted it in practice!

The Craftsman Sect, thanks to their mastery in forging Divine Weapons, had become one of the wealthiest Immortal Sects in all of East Breeze.

In fact, during this invasion of Eastern Wasteland by East Breeze, the Craftsman Sect did not send anyone, as their disciples weren’t particularly skilled in combat.

Nevertheless, they made their contribution—the majority of the Divine Weapons were forged by their sect.

Of course, they wouldn’t just forge for free; they offered a discount for the cause of the Eastern Wasteland raids—giving the major Immortal Sects a 20% discount.

Even with the discount, given the large quantity, the Craftsman Sect’s profits were substantial.

However, with the arrival of the Eastern Wasteland people, the resources they had earned this time were almost entirely lost.

“Let it be,” consoled Silver Craftsman, one of the only two with Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection in the Craftsman Sect, “Losing wealth might spare us from disaster.

Actually, the resources we lost were earned from selling Divine Weapons to the major Immortal Sects this time.

Our Craftsman Sect hasn’t suffered a crippling blow.”

While comforting himself, the Bliss Control Sect Leader patrolled the area and instructed the surrounding disciples: “Make sure everything is in order.

Today, the Dao Companions from the Western Savage Hundred Refinement Sect will be arriving.

The Hundred Refined Sect from the West Barbarian is especially adept at forging Divine Weapons.

Their methods are entirely different from our Craftsman Sect’s, representing different paths.

The Sect Leader and I have specifically invited them for an exchange, to clash different forging styles, which will greatly benefit our Craftsman Sect.

Be alert, learn as much as you can, and ensure our guests are well received.

Do not disgrace our sect.”

Silver Craftsman continued speaking while checking the preparations.

One end of their reach extended to the Eastern Wasteland, where they could enter before, but the other end—the West Barbarian—they could not directly access.

It was because of their inability to enter the West Barbarian that the Alliance Hierarch had chosen Eastern Wasteland as their target.

Little did they know how powerful Eastern Wasteland was, boasting so many unparalleled experts, and even their foremost expert had not made an appearance.

They could not enter the West Barbarian lands, but people from the West Barbarian could enter theirs.

Previously, many West Barbarian individuals had entered East Breeze.

It was unclear if the West Barbarian had any intentions of attacking East Breeze, but after witnessing the strength of East Breeze’s experts, especially the Reincarnated Great Ability who was the Sect Leader of Day and Moon, the West Barbarian quickly reached an agreement with them, signing a non-aggression pact.

Afterward, even more people from the West Barbarian entered East Breeze for exchanges, including a master from the Hundred Refined Sect who went to the Craftsman Sect to discuss forging upon learning of its existence.

Later, both sides realized that the other’s forging skills were incredibly advanced and not inferior to one’s own sect, yet their techniques were distinct.

This led to mutual discoveries that they could complement each other’s forging techniques.

Therefore, after discussions, the master from the Hundred Refined Sect decided to send more skilled experts and talented young disciples to engage in discussion, complement each other, and improve their forging techniques together.

Today marks the arrival of the people from the Hundred Refined Sect at the Craftsman Sect.
