Jia Lou picked the blueprints lying on the table and looked at the model of the product .
At first glance, he noticed that it was an enormous object . It looked like a giant mechanical creature with four wheels for legs . There was a cabin within it that could be entered through the top . However, the weirdest and most frightening thing was the long tube coming out from the side .
No matter how he looked at it, it looked strange .
But the most crucial thing was that he had never seen or heard of it in Asura City . Usually, the four great clans would only forge battle armor and weapons with relatively simple designs .
The blueprint in front of him right then, however, seemed quite complex . Even if he could do it, he would need at least a few days . It was simply impossible to build it in one night .
"What about it, can you create this thing or not?" Rat asked with a frown while looking at the blueprint .
It was apparent to him that no one in Asura City would have seen such a complex object before . He was thus somewhat unsure as to whether Jia Lou could create it or not .
Jia Lou was confused . He calculated in his mind that if he returned to construction, he would need ten days to accumulate one thousand credit points . But if he started forging the strange object and finished it quickly, he would only need a few days .
Between the two choices, forging seemed to provide credit points faster .
"I can, let me try it . If I haven't completely a single piece by morning, then sir can replace me," Jia Lou said through gritted teeth .
Rat nodded and left .
The forging room was filled with dust, and the only source of light was a small window on the wall opposite of Jia Lou . Under the brilliance of moonlight, he was studying the diagram of parts stacked behind the main blueprint .
Every page had a new theory which left him gasping with amazement . According to the words on the blueprint, when every part was assembled together and the flux origin stone was used, the device would be able to move independently .
And the metal to be used was the lowest quality one, iron, while flux origin stones were another low quality item .
Excited, Jia Lou used a flint to light a candle flame, which illuminated the entire forging room . He placed the blueprint and blew away the dust covering the iron furnace . It revealed a lump of iron solidified inside it a long time ago .
After that, he cleaned the iron furnace and used a fire stone to light a flame . He then added a few more of them into the furnace . Once they were ignited, the temperature in the forging room increased quickly . Sweat covered his forehead, and the solidified iron began to melt under his gaze, slowly transforming into red molten iron .
Soon, the sound of forging echoed in the room after a very long time of having been absent .
Li Yunmu looked at the descendants of Ground Clan who were already in their dreams, and a complacent expression appeared on his face .

[You just created a clan, and you are already so excited . If you happened to create life, wouldn't you die out of happiness?] the system mocked him in his mind .
Li Yunmu looked away and mentally communicated with the system . "Asura is in the city lord's mansion and you dare to come out so casually? Aren't you afraid of being discovered?"
[Asura entered seclusion . Since Lakshmi did not die, the part of her soul swallowed by Asura is agitated . Usually, he wouldn't bother with it, but he had used his full strength to scare away the five ancient gods . Because of that, Lakshmi's soul has become even more restless . The fact that he entered seclusion means that it had grown bad enough to influence him . ]
When speaking, the system did not sound to have a care in the world . Although it didn't possess the strength of a True God right then, his perception was still very formidable .
After hearing its words, Li Yunmu realized what had happened . No wonder then that the four clans gave him the regions on the edge of the resource lands . They had become so brazen because of Asura's absence .
If Asura hadn't entered seclusion, then even if the four great clans resented Chen Xiu, they would have endured it and given him good regions during the division . But with Asura in seclusion, the four great clans weren't scared of an ancestor with only god level cultivation and no subordinates .
"Seems like the four great clans still want to create some trouble," Li Yunmu said with a sigh .
[This is only natural . You try to snatch their territory, and you expect them to help you? If you were in their position, how would you feel?] the system asked with disdain .

"Since you came out, help me manufacture some cultivation relaying globes . This way, they can be properly imparted to the descendants of Ground Clan . "
The creation of cultivation relaying globes for passing on martial skills was very easy, after all .
[That can be done . Anyway, I won't dissuade you from what you're trying to do, but I will still remind you that you cannot go back after reaching the end of this path . ]
"I know . "
Li Yunmu did not sleep the whole night and just sat on his bed . Several cultivation relaying globes shone brightly on the floor of the room . Soon, another cultivation relaying globe appeared in his hand . He threw it to the ground and continued to create the next one . His movements were smooth like moving clouds and flowing water .
Cultivation relaying globes were very convenient since they only needed to be pressed against a person's forehead for all the information regarding the cultivation of a martial art to be transferred to them . There was never a time when someone would not understand something or would have to ask others to guide them .
The cultivation relaying globes piled on the floor of the room were filled with the most basic martial skills . None of them were high level . After all, such a thing could still be excused, but if he released some high level martial skills, then Asura himself might become suspicious .
"Lord, lord!" Rat shouted out from outside the room .
"Come in," Li Yunmu said without stopping his movements, and another cultivation relaying globe appeared in his left hand . He threw it on the ground, and it bounced after colliding with other cultivation relaying globes .

When Rat entered and saw the light balls lying on the ground, he was flabbergasted . He could not help it even if since he started following Li Yunmu, he had seen so much shocking stuff that he became numb to novel things .
This lord who was originally a branch family descendant had simply too many ideas .
But in any case, what were those light balls?
"Leader, what are you doing now? What's the use of these light balls? Are they a new type of weapon?" Rat asked with suspicion .
Lu Yunmu stopped for a moment and looked at the curious Rat . He then picked up a speed type martial skill from the pile of cultivation globes and said, "Take this light ball and press it against your forehead . "
Rat skeptically did as told and pressed the cultivation relaying globe against his head . Instantly, he felt an enormous amount of information entering his brain . The instant he saw it, he opened his eyes, and an alarmed expression appeared on his face .
His body moved subconsciously, and a formidable force transferred to his legs . They moved automatically, and he retreated instantly .
Rat stood rooted in that spot for a few minutes . Once he grasped what had happened though, he jumped excitedly . "I can use a martial art!"
The movement of his body had been an instinctual reaction from his brain . It had generated a large amount of energy and transferred it to his feet to retreat a few steps in experimentation . But that was all subconscious . If he had unleashed it properly, his speed would have been much faster .
Rat raised his head and looked at Li Yunmu with eyes full of worship and said, "Lord, you are a genius . Not only did you create the strength amplifying battle armor, but also these magic balls filled with cultivation methods… This is simply…"
