Genshin Impact: I am best at sacrifice, don't cry

Nan Dou didn't expect that before he had gone far, someone from the Chiming clan on Zhu Ming's immortal boat came to find him.

Of course, Long Zun is impossible, but he is also an important figure in the Zhu Ming Chi Ming lineage.

The elixir he developed, such as the [Elixir of Life], was sold well throughout the Xianzhou Alliance. It was not enough to rely on Luofu Chiming alone, so he had cooperated with the Chiming tribes of other Xianzhous very early on. The people who came were also his acquaintances, so there were no communication barriers.

In order not to disturb Bai Heng, Nan Dou walked at the end of the team and discussed clan affairs with the visitors.

Bai Heng looked at Nan Dou with some curiosity as he walked to the end of the team. He saw him wave his hand and didn't ask any more questions, so he focused his attention on Ying Xing beside him.

Bai Heng, who was born as a nameless guest, is best at dealing with various creatures, and it is easy for him to communicate with Ying Xing, a somewhat shy human child.

Along the way, Bai Heng spent some time talking to Ying Xing in depth before he found out his background.

Ying Xing seemed to lack confidence, but Bai Heng understood him best. A child like him would be willing to open up to others if given more encouragement. What he needed was recognition, not pity.

Just as envoys seeking medicine would flock to Luofu in an endless stream, for those who aspire to learn and cultivate skills, Zhu Ming is an artisan school that is no less prestigious than Pierpoint and Screw Star (two technological meccas between the universes).

There are countless barbarians who come to Zhu Ming from all over the starry sky to seek technology. Most of them will return to their hometowns after completing their studies and spread the knowledge to their compatriots.

But Ying Xing is different, he is homeless.

His hometown was destroyed by Bu Liren's fleet and turned into a weapons ranch - Bai Heng knew what that meant. This child's blood brothers would become pieces of meat without dignity and become food for those mountain-like weapon beasts.

So after arriving at the Immortal Boat, this child who had escaped death worked hard for only one goal: he tried hard to learn how to forge weapons for the Cloud Riders, and vowed to eradicate those horrible monsters.

He is amazing, as he has been recognized as a craftsman at such a young age.

Despite this, Xiao Yingxing did not feel happy at all: "The other immortal masters in the department all said that I am still far from enough. It's not that I lack energy or wisdom... It's that I can't live as long as they do... The knowledge I can learn is always limited. Maybe, I will never see the day when I can avenge my parents in this lifetime."

Seeing his depressed look, Bai Heng felt a little distressed and immediately retorted: "Don't listen to the nonsense of the old guys, they are not immortals, they are just jealous of you!"

"It's not uncommon to see geniuses who passed away in just a few decades in the genius club! Their achievements are still world-shaking. What does a person's lifespan have to do with his or her achievements?"

"As long as you focus on what you want to do, whether you succeed or not is up to fate."

Ying Xing's expression seemed to be brighter, as if he was touched by Bai Heng's words: "The old man is not talking nonsense! Master Huai Yan...he respects me very much, and he taught me a lot!"

Bai Heng could see that General Huai Yan valued Ying Xing so much that he was training him as his personal disciple, otherwise, as a general with a lot of things to do, he would not have taught Ying Xing personally.

Thinking of Ying Xing's fateful fate, his miserable life, and his precocious talent, Bai Heng couldn't help but touch Ying Xing's head.

But he seemed to see through Bai Heng's thoughts at a glance. He covered my hand with his little hand and patted it comfortingly.

As if he suddenly came to his senses, Ying Xing remembered the purpose of his trip. "Uh... um... Master told me to take you to visit the Flame Wheel Casting Palace first."

Bai Heng blinked and asked curiously, "According to the order of urgency, should we talk about the weapons first?"

"I...I'm just following Master Huaiyan's request." Ying Xing replied, scratching his head awkwardly.

Bai Heng didn't care. Their Luofu Immortal Boat was not in a hurry. They came here just to get some weapons in preparation for the future war.

As for the Yaoqing Immortal Boat, I heard that the war has been intense recently, and it is probably short of both armaments and manpower. This is not surprising, as the Yaoqing Immortal Boat is an even more radical war faction than the Luofu Immortal Boat.

The two chatted and soon arrived at the entrance of the Foundry Palace.

[The smelting furnace refines thousands of stars, and the iron is endowed with heroic spirits. The light of the Big Dipper inspires military might, and the sharp sword ensures peace and tranquility], these lines of poetry are hung in the main hall of the Casting Palace.

According to the records in "Shangguo Menghualu", an anonymous emperor of the ancient country once gave a weapon mold to Zhu Ming's master craftsman Yang Zhai as a gift for setting sail. This mold has been passed down to this day and has become the treasure of the Foundry Palace.

Sixty to seventy percent of all weapons needed for the immortal boats’ hunting patrols are produced by Zhu Ming’s Engineering and Manufacturing Division—and the base of Zhu Ming’s Engineering and Manufacturing Division is the Flame Wheel Casting Palace where Bai Heng is currently located.

The moment he entered the Foundry Palace, Bai Heng felt the temperature around him suddenly rise, as if he was in a furnace, but it was only for a moment, and the next moment everything returned to normal.

"Strange, it seemed like something looked at me just now..."

After bidding farewell to his cousin from the Chiming tribe, Nan Dou followed the team into the Foundry Palace. He suddenly felt like he was being spied on, but the feeling only lasted for a moment.

Nan Dou walked up to Bai Heng and saw that she was chatting enthusiastically with Ying Xing, so he didn't disturb her. This was the fate between the two of them, and also the beginning of the Yunshang Five Heroes.

Following the feeling just now, Nan Dou began to look around.

The so-called Foundry Palace is actually the largest forging place of Zhu Ming Xianzhou. It is rare to see open flames here, but it has the most advanced forging technology in the entire Xianzhou Alliance.

And Huai Yan, the "General Zhu Yuan" of Zhu Ming Xian Zhou, was the longest-lived person in the entire Xian Zhou in the future.

As an organization spanning the six major immortal ships, the Cloud Cavalry Army was born at the end of the Fire Disaster War. It vowed to defend the immortal ships and follow the Emperor Bow's [Hunting] edict, which has been passed down to this day.

Although the lifespan of the Immortal Race is incredibly long, in the bloody war, few Cloud Cavalry generals can survive more than a hundred years after taking office.

Rather than saying this is a fate, it is better to say this is a tradition. As an armed force to protect the immortal boat and fight against evil creatures, the general not only has the responsibility of preparing and dispatching troops, but also needs to lead the way and cut through the enemy lines.

But General Huaiyan broke this common sense. He lived as a general for more than a thousand years and was still active in the game plot, which shows how special he is.

Although Yingxing later obtained the title of "Bai Ye" which should have been awarded to the head of the Industrial and Manufacturing Department, Nan Dou still did not think that his forging skills could surpass Huai Yan.

At the very least, Nan Dou wanted to ask General Huai Yan for a magic weapon made by himself.

It is said that Zhu Minglongzun Yan Tingjun also likes forging. As he has mastered the legend of the Qionglong, he may have unique forging skills.

If the two of them worked together to create a magic weapon for him, then...

Nan Dou's eyes sparkled, and he made up his mind that he would give it a try even if it meant losing everything he had and paying a huge price.

Anyway, he couldn't take out all the accumulation here in the end, but it was different for the magic weapons.
