Chapter 608 35 High-Grade Treasures
Chapter 608 35 High-Grade Treasures
"This Ghostly Wind Valley hasn't seen any treasures for a long time. Could it be that a treasure will appear this time?"
The creator of the giant axe murmured, his gaze deep, seemingly able to pierce through the endless chaos and reach the depths of the canyon.
He did not rush to go deeper, but cautiously released his divine power to explore the surrounding situation.
The outer realm of Qingfeng Realm is fraught with danger, and no one knows what danger they will encounter next.
"Better safe than sorry" is a saying that applies everywhere, especially in this treacherous place.
As the divine power spread, the Giant Axe Founder gradually sensed the strange energy fluctuations deep within the canyon.
This fluctuation, sometimes strong, sometimes weak, sometimes visible, sometimes hidden, is like breathing, carrying a peculiar rhythm.
"Something's definitely fishy!"
The founder of the giant axe thought to himself, a glint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
The more mysterious something is, the more likely it is to hold a great opportunity.
He sped up and flew toward the direction from which the energy fluctuations were coming from.
Deep within the Ghostly Wind Canyon, the space became even more chaotic, with howling winds sounding like the wails of ghosts and wolves.
The creator of the giant axe had to slow down, carefully avoiding the spatial rifts that swirled around it. These rifts varied in size, some only a few meters long, while others stretched for light-years, like monstrous beasts ready to devour anyone who wasn't careful. A moment's carelessness would mean being swallowed whole and never to be reincarnated.
After flying for about half a day, the Giant Axe Founder finally arrived at the place where the energy fluctuations were the strongest.
The terrain here is very peculiar. The surrounding mountains seem to have been torn apart by some enormous force, forming deep, bottomless cracks. Gale-force winds howl out from these cracks, creating deafening roars.
In the center of these cracks, a huge spherical object is suspended.
The object was entirely black, its surface covered with strange patterns, and it emitted a chilling energy fluctuation.
"What is this thing?" the founder of the giant axe wondered, having never seen such a strange object before.
He cautiously approached the black sphere and released his divine power to investigate. However, the moment his divine power touched the surface of the sphere, it vanished without a trace, like a clay ox sinking into the sea.
"It can't be detected! Could it be a strange object?" The founder of the giant axe was shocked. This black sphere was clearly extraordinary.
"It's undetectable!" The founder of the giant axe was secretly shocked; this black sphere was even more mysterious than he had imagined.
He held his breath and approached the sphere more cautiously, trying to observe its patterns with the naked eye. These patterns were complex and mysterious, as if they contained some kind of cosmic truth.
"This extraordinary item? It's probably comparable to a top-tier treasure! Or even the finest among top-tier treasures!"
A bold guess suddenly popped into the mind of the founder of the giant axe.
If it's a top-grade item among the ultimate treasures, then you'll make a fortune!
He reached out and tentatively touched the surface of the sphere.
"Buzz!"
A strange energy surged into the body of the Giant Axe Founder, causing him to shudder.
The founder of the giant axe felt a warm current flow from his fingertips, which quickly spread throughout his body, bringing him indescribable comfort.
This energy was vast and boundless, yet incredibly gentle, like a gentle stream, nourishing every corner of his divine body.
The creator of the giant axe had a sudden thought and tentatively swung his axe. The violent axe blade tore through space and slammed into the armor formed of golden light.
"boom!"
With a loud crash, the axe struck the transparent armor, sending up a dazzling burst of light.
However, this axe blow, comparable to the attack of a sixth-order universe master, failed to cause the slightest damage to the armor!
The creator of the giant axe stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief. He once again channeled his divine power, unleashing dozens of consecutive axe blows, each containing earth-shattering might. Yet, the seemingly thin, transparent armor remained completely still, as if it did not exist at all.
"This...how is this possible?"
The founder of the giant axe was stunned.
He knew the power of his axe blow; even a fifth-order universe lord wearing a peak-level treasure armor wouldn't dare to take it head-on, yet the armor remained completely unharmed!
After repeated testing, the founder of the giant axe discovered that this armor could actually reduce attacks to one ten-thousandth!
Moreover, the creator of the giant axe discovered that this armor could also weaken soul attacks.
The reduction is roughly equivalent to weakening soul attacks by ten thousand times!
"This...this is way too insane!"
The founder of the giant axe was amazed; the armor formed by this "wonderful object" was simply a perfect defensive treasure!
While it may not be as powerful as the ultimate treasure, it is definitely among the top-tier ultimate treasure armors.
Giant Axe recalled the Five Chaos Lord in the Cosmic Sea. His supreme treasure armor, the Extinction God Armor, was also a top-grade supreme treasure armor. However, the Extinction God Armor of the Five Chaos Lord had another major function: it could transform into a supreme treasure palace. It did not have the ability to defend the soul.
"Excellent! With this treasure, my ability to survive will be greatly enhanced!"
Giant Axe never expected that he would have such an opportunity while trying to avenge the two human prodigies.
"Since it's a rare artifact, it can't be brought into the primordial universe. So, from now on, I'll begin my exploration from here!"
Having obtained a life-saving treasure, Giant Axe was in a good mood. Donning the newly acquired armor, he felt an unprecedented surge of power coursing through his body.
This power was not the power of his divine body, but the power bestowed by the magical armor itself.
"The power granted by this armor alone is comparable to that of the most ordinary cosmic lord!"
However, for a powerful being like the Giant Axe, this extra bit of power doesn't provide much of an improvement.
Giant Axe grinned, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth: "Outer Domain of the Peak-Swept Realm, I've arrived!"
After saying that, he vanished into the vast void in a flash.
The outer realms of the Peak Realm are fraught with danger and unpredictability; even the strongest beings in the universe dare not be careless.
The founder of Giant Axe has encountered several dangerous situations along the way.
……
In the vast and boundless starry sky, two streaks of light pierced the heavens and finally landed on the huge planetary continent of the Virtual Universe Company headquarters.
It was Chu Yang and Luo Feng.
"I'm going to cultivate now!"
As soon as Luo Feng landed, he couldn't wait to fly towards the secret realm, his tone filled with longing to break through to the Universe Venerable realm.
Chu Yang watched Luo Feng leave, smiled slightly, and then turned and flew towards the direction of the primordial universe.
Through teleportation, Chu Yang entered the initial universe.
"Junior brother, you've arrived."
The Lord of Chaos City had been waiting for a long time. Upon seeing Chu Yang, he smiled kindly and pointed to the mountain of materials piled up in the center of the hall: "Take a look at these materials; they were all gifts from the various universe lords of our clan!"
Chu Yang's gaze fell on the mountain of materials, and he couldn't help but feel a slight tremor in his heart.
These materials are colorful and exude different auras. Each piece contains immense energy and is clearly a treasure that the Lord of the Universe has kept for many years, making them priceless.
"So many..." Chu Yang's eyes lit up as he exclaimed.
"Haha, not much!" The Chaos City Lord laughed heartily. "These materials were specially prepared for you by the human race's universe lords to thank you for your contribution. Many universe lords in the Cosmic Sea made a special trip back to deliver these materials!"
"even……"
The Lord of Chaos City paused for a moment, then continued, "The clan has not required you to contribute any amount to the clan after you forge a supreme treasure; it is all up to you."
"If you keep all the treasures for yourself after you finish refining them, no one will say anything."
Hearing these words from the Lord of Chaos City, Chu Yang was filled with even more emotions.
He knew that the human race's cosmic ruler was expressing his trust and respect for him, a favor that was of utmost importance.
"I owe this person quite a favor!" Chu Yang sighed inwardly. As expected of the human race's resources, the quality of these materials was much higher than anything he had seen before.
He carefully observed the materials; each piece emanated a unique energy fluctuation, filling him with anticipation for the next refining process.
"That's enough, Senior Brother! These should be enough to forge twenty or thirty high-grade treasures!"
Chu Yang did not hide anything from the Lord of Chaos City and revealed his estimate.
"Twenty or thirty high-grade treasures?" Upon hearing this, the Chaos City Lord's eyes flashed with surprise, then he smiled and nodded, continuing, "I have another idea that I'd like to discuss with you."
"Please speak, senior brother!"
"Your weapon-refining skills are already on par with the God of Crafts. I think we can announce this news and use it as a gimmick to attract more powerful alien races to join the Hong Alliance."
A glint of light flashed in the eyes of the Chaos City Lord.
For a long time, it has been difficult for the weaker races in the primordial universe to obtain supreme treasures. Going to the Cosmic Sea would be difficult to survive without the strength of a universe master. In the primordial universe, the four peak races have occupied too much territory.
This has resulted in many cosmic overlords, and even cosmic lords, not having a suitable supreme treasure, while the only one capable of crafting high-level supreme treasures, the God of Crafts, has extremely demanding requirements.
It is conceivable that if the human race were to announce this matter, it would attract many other races to join them.
Chu Yang pondered for a moment and said, "This will probably cause a lot of trouble."
There will definitely be trouble. Putting aside the attitude of the God of Craftsmen, the three top races will definitely be even more hostile to the human race.
Furthermore, although the God of Crafts is said to be in a neutral camp, the actions of the human race are tantamount to taking away his livelihood. If they become hostile to the human race because of this, they will be a force that cannot be ignored!
"There will definitely be troubles, but we also need to see the benefits."
The Lord of Chaos City said, "As long as there are enough benefits, those alien powerhouses will naturally flock to it, and at that time, the strength of our Hong Alliance will also be greatly enhanced."
Chu Yang nodded in agreement.
"Then it's settled."
The Lord of Chaos City made the final decision, "I will arrange for the news to be spread. During this time, you should focus on refining supreme treasures and try to refine as many high-grade supreme treasures as possible!"
"I will do my best!" Chu Yang said.
In the days that followed, Chu Yang immersed himself in weapon crafting.
The Lord of False Gold even specially welcomed Chu Yang into the miniature universe of the giant axe and created a spacetime with a time acceleration of three thousand times.
Although it can't compare to the time-accelerated spacetime of the Ancestral God Sect, it's still quite good.
The giant axe's miniature universe can also accelerate time by ten thousand times, but the energy consumed is too great. A three-thousand-fold time acceleration is still manageable.
Chu Yang sat cross-legged in a void, surrounded by colorful materials that shimmered like stars.
With his eyes closed, his divine sense spread out like a spider web, fully understanding the characteristics of each material.
"Let's begin."
Chu Yang murmured.
With time accelerated three thousand times, tens of thousands of years in the outside world are only a few decades here.
Chu Yang was so engrossed in refining the weapon that he almost forgot the passage of time.
In his hands, materials transformed and merged as if they were alive, ultimately becoming treasures radiating a powerful aura.
On average, it takes about five thousand years to forge one high-grade treasure. In nearly two hundred thousand years, a total of twenty-eight high-grade treasures have been forged.
Among them are two domain-level treasures, one soul defense treasure, and one palace treasure... Each one is a masterpiece, enough to drive any cosmic overlord crazy.
When Chu Yang finished refining the last treasure, he let out a long sigh of relief, a hint of fatigue flashing in his eyes, but also a sense of accomplishment.
Chaos City, City Lord's Mansion.
Chu Yang placed thirty-five high-grade treasures before the Chaos City Lord, saying, "Senior Brother, let's offer these treasures to our clan!"
Of these, twenty-eight were crafted after returning to the human realm, and seven were crafted earlier in the Ancestral Mystic Realm. As for ordinary treasures, Chu Yang did not take them out, as they still had uses.
The Lord of Chaos City, gazing at the thirty-five high-grade treasures piled up like a small mountain before him, trembled slightly with excitement, repeatedly praising, "Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! Junior brother, you are truly a blessing to our human race!"
"Junior brother, shouldn't you keep a few for yourself? I think you can use these treasures for now!"
Chu Yang smiled slightly and shook his head: "These were all made for the human race; I don't want a single one. Furthermore, I want to exchange them for a batch of ordinary supreme treasures from my own race!"
"No problem, I can give you 5,000 Treasure Points for this batch of high-grade treasures! If you feel that's not enough, I can also privately compensate you with 2,000 points!"
The Lord of Chaos City waved his hand, clearly in a good mood.
Chu Yang nodded. He also got his inspiration from the Chaos City Lord's Thousand Treasures River. Since he couldn't refine top-tier treasures for the time being, perhaps he could refine some set treasures.
Thirty-five high-grade treasures were piled up like a small mountain in front of the Chaos City Lord, radiating a heart-palpitating energy fluctuation.
As soon as these treasures entered the human race's treasure vault, the news spread like wildfire, reaching every cosmic lord within the human race's territory.
Some well-informed cosmic overlords also knew about this, but they didn't know who made the contribution.
The fact that Chu Yang could refine high-grade treasures was known only to the group of universe lords at the highest meeting. To those below the level of universe lords, he was simply referred to as a newly recruited weapon-refining master.
"Have you heard? Thirty-five new high-grade treasures have suddenly appeared in the clan's treasure vault!"
"Thirty-five supreme treasures! This... how is this possible?"
"Really? Where did so many high-level treasures come from? Did they get them from the Primordial Star?"
The Primal Star has been open for some time now, and many human cosmic venerables and cosmic overlords have entered it to explore.
"It's said to have been crafted by a mysterious master craftsman and offered to his people! Could it be the God of Crafts?"
"That can't be right! The God of Crafts is neutral; there's no way he could join our human camp!"
"I'll go ask my teacher and see if he knows which master weapon refiner it is!"
Some Venerables with backgrounds as Lords of the Universe began to inquire about the news, and even Venerable Guiyi, the disciple of the Chaos City Lord, couldn't help but request an audience with the Chaos City Lord. (End of Chapter)
