Finally, after five hours, Prince of Shicheng Hua Tianxiong successfully inscribed his first attribute rune, the Fortification Sigil. Looking at the successfully completed sigil, he felt the immense progress he had made after spending so much time practicing rune inscription.
For an ordinary Martial Practitioner, over 700 hours meant two months of time. It would take two months just to successfully inscribe a single basic attribute sigil. If one were to learn and master all thirty-six basic attribute runes, it would require six years of work without eating or sleeping. When accounting for time spent eating, drinking, and resting, it would take at least twelve years to become proficient. If one were to factor in the time required for martial arts cultivation, it would take at least twenty years to successfully master the inscription of all basic attribute runes.
This was the fundamental reason why Artifact Refiners were so scarce and precious. Naturally, it was even rarer for higher-level Array Masters. After all, whether inscribing runes or arrays, the mental energy consumed by an artisan is immense. Ordinary people without strong mental energy support simply cannot become Artifact Refiners.
