"You can forge the most powerful treasures?!"
Chen Yuan's words clearly shocked everyone present.
The Lord of Darkness, in particular, knew that Chen Yuan was learning the art of treasure refining from the Mountain Guest, but only a short time had passed.
Even if Chen Yuan studied in the miniature universe for two million years, how much could he have learned in that short time?
Let alone refining the most powerful treasures, even being able to refine the pinnacle treasures would be at the top level of the original universe.
"Although I've heard that the Mountain Hermit is skilled at crafting magical artifacts, I don't recall him having any particularly impressive works."
The founder of the Giant Axe couldn't help but shake his head: "Chen Yuan, how long have you been learning? How can you be so confident?"
"Don't you all believe me?"
Chen Yuan continued to smile.
"This is too outrageous; we find it hard to believe."
The Chaos City Lord, standing to the side, couldn't help but say, "Do you know that even the 'God of Craftsmen,' renowned for his treasure-refining skills, throughout countless eons..."
It can only refine top-tier treasures.
"But you've only studied for two million years. Even if you could refine a supreme treasure, that would be quite an achievement. As for the ultimate treasure, to be honest, this level of treasure is beyond the level of a universe master. I've never heard of anyone being able to refine one."
"I understand all of that," Chen Yuan replied with a smile. "As for my skill level in refining treasures, whether I can master the techniques for refining the most powerful treasures..."
I'll only give three reasons.
"First, there's what Uncle Chaos called the 'God of Craftsmen.'"
He paused for a moment, then continued, "In fact, the current craftsman's treasure-refining skills are also due to the guidance he received from Master Zuoshanke."
"Of course, Master Zuoshanke only instructed the other party on the art of treasure refining, and did not take the God of Crafts as his disciple."
The crowd exchanged glances, their expressions revealing undisguised surprise. The master craftsman, the God of Crafts, had actually learned his craft from the Mountain-Sitting Guest.
The master craftsman has never mentioned this experience.
"As for the second reason—" Chen Yuan looked around at everyone and slowly said, "The Star Tower, the most powerful treasure on the extraterritorial battlefield, is actually my teacher's work."
"What?!"
For everyone else, this was obviously even more explosive news.
It should be noted that the Star Tower has stood on the outer battlefield for countless epochs. Almost ever since the four top races opened up the outer battlefield, the Star Tower has always been there, to the point that they all believe that this treasure was born from the primordial universe.
But now Chen Yuan is telling them that this supreme treasure was actually crafted by the Mountain-Sitting Guest. Doesn't this mean that at the very beginning of the universe...
Has the other party already mastered the crafting technology for the most powerful treasures?
"That's unbelievable."
The Giant Axe Founder shook his head, his tone surprised: "Although I've always felt that the Mountain Guest, this strongest lone traveler, is not simple, after all, he is an ancient relic that has existed since the beginning of the universe."
"But now it seems we all greatly underestimated this lone traveler."
"Please don't leak this information out," Chen Yuan smiled. "Teacher Zuoshanke is a very low-key person and doesn't like to show his face in public."
"I understand, we will never tell anyone about this."
Everyone nodded. After learning some details about the other party, no one wanted to offend this lone, strongest individual.
"Chen Yuan, the previous two points only show that your teacher has the ability to refine the most powerful treasures, but that doesn't mean you can do it too."
The Lord of Darkness couldn't help but ask, "You just said there were three reasons. What's the last one?"
"The first two reasons are about Mr. Zuoshanke's abilities."
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "This last point is naturally related to me."
Amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd, he slowly said, "In the two million years of my life in the small universe, I have indeed not yet mastered the crafting techniques for the most powerful treasures."
Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately disappointed, but then Chen Yuan continued, "However, I possess the technology to forge supreme treasures!"
"And that was during the era of the Realm Lord."
Facing the strange gazes of the crowd, Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Now that I have advanced to the Immortal realm, my divine power is far more sensitive than the original force I had during my World Lord era when I was refining treasures. As a result, my treasure refining skills have improved significantly."
"Although I still do not have the ability to refine the most powerful treasures, I am confident that I can break through the limits of treasure refining technology within ten thousand years."
"At that time, I will naturally be able to refine the most powerful treasure."
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in astonishment. Giant Axe exclaimed in shock, "You can already forge top-tier treasures? And you'll master the forging technique for the most powerful treasures within ten thousand years?"
"Yes." Chen Yuan nodded.
"Do you have any proof?" Giant Axe couldn't help but ask, then added, "Of course, I'm not doubting you, it's just that this matter is too important, I need to confirm it with my own eyes."
"Don't worry, this is not difficult."
Chen Yuan smiled, and with a thought, all the supreme treasures he possessed flew out and circled around the group.
"These treasures are my creations." Chen Yuan introduced them to everyone one by one: "The battle suit and longsword go without saying, the battle boots are time-related treasures, the silver mirror is a domain-related treasure, the bracelet is an origin-related treasure, and the water droplet is a soul-related treasure."
"The above six treasures are all of the highest quality, and they can be combined to form a set, with an overall quality that surpasses any other top-tier treasure."
After seeing Chen Yuan's ultimate treasure set, the several universe lords, including the founder of the giant axe, were completely dumbfounded. Such luxurious equipment...
It was even of higher quality than the treasures worn on the giant axe, not to mention the several cosmic lords.
However, before Chen Yuan could finish showing off, he pointed to the last miniature palace and said, "This one is also my most precious treasure, a pinnacle treasure of the flying palace category: the Primordial Palace!"
"The Primordial Palace contains a world one light-year in diameter. Its external shape and size can be changed at will, and the flow of time within it can be controlled, accelerating it up to a thousand times!"
"As for its defensive capabilities, they are unparalleled. It can withstand attacks from the strongest beings in the universe within the primordial universe and reduce soul attacks to one ten-thousandth of their original power!"
Chen Yuan said confidently, "As long as I hide inside the Primordial Palace, no one in the entire Primordial Universe can kill me."
"Amazing!" the Giant Axe Founder exclaimed in amazement. "Just as you said, within the scope of the Primal Universe, even the strongest being cannot break through the defenses of this palace."
Lord Youhou, standing to the side, was practically drooling with envy: "Junior Brother, did you craft all these treasures? Doesn't that mean that with enough materials, you could craft a complete set of supreme treasures and a flying palace?"
Heaven have mercy, even though Youhou is considered a powerful figure who has traversed the primordial universe, he only possesses one top-tier treasure, the "Youhou Thorn," and apart from that, only his armor is of the highest level; all his other treasures are merely of a high level.
As for flying palaces? The palaces that could affect him would have to be at least high-grade treasures, but the value of such treasures is comparable to that of a top-grade treasure, which he simply cannot afford!
"Senior Brother Youhou is right." Chen Yuan nodded with a smile. "As long as the materials are sufficient, you can come to me with any kind of top-tier treasure."
Upon hearing this, not only the Lord of Youhou, but also the Lord of Chaos City and the Lord of Darkness showed signs of interest.
Among these people, only the founder of the Giant Axe was still able to think calmly: "Chen Yuan, I believe you have the ability to refine top-tier treasures, but as far as I know, refining such treasures must take quite a while, right? If you take on too many missions, won't it interfere with your cultivation?"
"Have you forgotten that my Primordial Palace can accelerate time a thousandfold?"
Chen Yuan shook his head slightly and said confidently, "As long as I control the frequency, I can refine a top-tier treasure in about a hundred years."
And it won't affect me at all.
"Moreover, in the process of refining top-tier treasures, I can also accumulate experience, which is beneficial for breakthroughs in treasure refining techniques."
"As long as it doesn't interfere with your cultivation, it's fine."
Hearing Chen Yuan say this, Giant Axe was relieved and then said, "Of course, we can't let you get too tired, and they don't need that many treasures for the time being."
"How about this, you can have each of the three of them forge a top-tier treasure, and let them provide the materials themselves."
"Besides, we can't let you work for free." The founder of the giant axe thought for a moment and then said, "According to the rules of commissioned treasure refining, we need to pay 30% of the treasure's value as the cost of refining it. Let them pay that too."
"Thirty percent is too much." Chen Yuan waved his hands repeatedly. "Besides, how could I accept money for refining treasures for my teacher, senior brother, and senior uncle?"
"Not at all." Giant Axe shook his head. "You know, no one in the entire Primordial Universe can refine a top-tier treasure right now. This is a service you can't get even if you pay money."
"Making them follow the normal rules now is already letting them off easy."
"The giant axe is right." The Chaos City Lord nodded in agreement: "Chen Yuan, you don't need to worry about anything. As long as we can obtain a top-tier treasure, we've already gained a great advantage."
"That's right, let's go with 30%. It'll also set a rule for newcomers."
The Lord of Darkness looked at his disciple with gentle eyes: "I've taken you as my disciple for so long, and as your teacher, I haven't been able to help you much. On the contrary, I'm asking for your help. How could I not pay you?"
"Teacher is right." Lord Youhou nodded repeatedly. "Junior brother, let's do it this way. It's not like I can't afford it. I'm already very satisfied with this opportunity."
"This—" Chen Yuan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, his tone firm: "Since you gentlemen are close to me, let's calculate the fee at 10%. As for those who come later, we can charge them according to the normal rules later."
The group wanted to say more, but the giant axe stopped them. He nodded and said, "Alright, then those three will get 10%, and this is the only time. If they need you to refine any more treasures in the future, it will be 30%. How about that?"
"Let's do as the giant axe says." All three cosmic lords nodded, and Chen Yuan had no choice but to agree.
Next, the three of them announced the types of treasures they needed, and all three of them had the same requirement: a flying palace!
A top-tier, supreme-treasure-level flying palace is worth no less than 10,000 supreme-treasure points. In other words, Chen Yuan can directly earn 3,000 supreme-treasure points by crafting three palaces!
"Chen Yuan, when are you planning to come and collect the materials? The three of us are currently in Chaos City."
The Lord of Darkness asked his disciple.
Chen Yuan thought for a moment and said, "If it goes quickly, it should take about a month; if it goes slowly, it should arrive within a year."
The system upgrade should be completed in a month. If the teleportation in the optimized space works, he can return to Chaos City instantly.
Of course, if he can't teleport, it wouldn't take him more than a year to fly back slowly.
"No problem, then we'll wait for you in Chaos City," said the Lord of Darkness.
After addressing the requests of the three for the most precious treasure, Chen Yuan turned to the only one who hadn't made a request: "Founder of the Giant Axe, don't you have any treasure you want?"
"Me?" The giant axe shook its head. "I already have a full set of top-tier treasures at my disposal, and the flying palace is of little use to me. I have no need for it for the time being."
A hint of a smile played in his eyes: "I'll wait until you can refine the most powerful treasure before making any demands."
"Wait ten thousand years?" Chen Yuan smiled as well. "But I never said it would take ten thousand years to get the ultimate treasure."
The founder of the giant axe was slightly taken aback.
Chen Yuan blinked and smiled, "Although it takes ten thousand years for me to personally refine the most powerful treasure, it doesn't mean I can't obtain one now."
"Are you serious?!" The founder of the giant axe's eyes lit up. "You can ask the Mountain-Sitting Guest to forge an ultimate treasure for me?"
Chen Yuan smiled and asked, "Do you want this supreme treasure?"
"Yes, of course I want it!"
Giant Axe nodded repeatedly. Now was not the time for modesty. Having such a powerful treasure was not only extremely important to him, but also to the entire human race.
Because only the stronger he is, the safer the human race will be.
"Founder of the Giant Axe, what kind of supreme treasure do you desire? A weapon? Armor? Or something else entirely?"
Chen Yuan asked.
"I need a weapon," the founder of the giant axe said decisively. "An axe-type weapon would be best."
"No problem," Chen Yuan readily agreed. "Tell me your specific requirements, including the style and runes of the weapon, and then prepare the materials."
The two then agreed on the various parameters of the supreme treasure and also arranged to collect the materials in Chaos City.
As for the cost of crafting this treasure, since supreme treasures have never appeared among humans before, the price is hard to determine. Even if it is a weapon, its value is much higher than that of a palace-type supreme treasure.
Ultimately, the two determined that the value of this treasure axe was 20,000 treasure points, with a crafting cost of 30%, or 6000 treasure points.
At this point, Chen Yuan had completed four deals, and all he needed to do was deliver these treasures within a thousand years.
This was no pressure for Chen Yuan at all. He planned to personally refine the three supreme treasures. As for the axe required by the giant axe, he planned to hand it over to the optimization system after he had refined the prototype.
After leaving the virtual universe, Chen Yuan patiently waited in the divine kingdom for the system upgrade to finish.
A month passed in the blink of an eye. When the countdown to the system upgrade reached zero, Chen Yuan eagerly opened the panel and checked the new features. The panel displayed:
System upgrade complete. "Primordial Key" unlocked.
The system functionality has been completed and will no longer be upgraded.
