Chapter 1270: Chapter 1046: Assimilation

Su Yuan smiled and said, "I already have a handy sword, so I’ll choose this Canghai Yidou."

Wen Zhong nodded and said, "I see, very well, this treasure will belong to the Royal Envoy Su.

Legendary Holy Artifacts are incredibly precious, I hope this treasure can help the envoy smash strong enemies!"

"Thank you," said Su Yuan.

Wen Zhong nodded slightly, then sat back and picked up an ancient book.

"If there’s nothing else, Royal Envoy Su can go on his way, Tian Zhi, see the envoy off."

"Yes!" Duan Tianzhi responded and was about to send Su Yuan off.

But Su Yuan stood still, and after a brief contemplation, spoke again:

"I wonder, Grandmaster Wen, if you could take a look at a Star Device for me?"

Wen Zhong looked up at the words, "Oh? Of course."

Su Yuan turned his hand, and a golden chain appeared in his hand, which he placed in front of Wen Zhong.

"Is this... Old Man Wei’s Heavenly Lock? Has it been repaired?"

Su Yuan’s eyes flickered slightly, "Correct, back when I was still a Star Lord, I collected Void Gold and had Elder Wei repair this for me."

Wen Zhong looked enlightened, "So that’s it."

The Tiger Vein conflict was too low in level, and as Wen Zhong was not a combatant, he was unaware of some specific details of the Tiger Vein conflict.

Su Yuan asked, "Grandmaster Wen, can the Heavenly Lock be reforged into a Holy Artifact?"

The Heavenly Lock is the only Space Star Device Su Yuan has cultivated to this day, making it very handy, but now its grade is a bit too low.

It’s rare to meet a refining master, and it was a good opportunity to ask.

Wen Zhong injected Star Power and gently activated the Heavenly Lock, carefully caressing it:

"It was reforged with Gold-Level Void Gold... and the reforging technique is very sophisticated, Old Man Wei has improved."

Duan Tianzhi leaned in to observe the Heavenly Lock, agreeing with praise, "Such craftsmanship, worthy of Old Man Wei, seems to be the most promising person in the department to become the third refining master."

After examining it closely and thoroughly, Wen Zhong said, "From the foundation, the Star Devices treasured by Old Man Wei are all remarkable.

As far as I know, this Heavenly Lock has a mysterious origin and excellent foundation.

The Gold-Level Void Gold and Old Man Wei’s reforging technique... did not cause any negative impact on this treasure during the last repair, but rather slightly enhanced its spirituality.

In my opinion... this treasure has some chance to be elevated to a Holy Artifact!"

Upon hearing this, Su Yuan’s eyes lit up.

Putting down the Void Gold, Wen Zhong said to Su Yuan, "But to reforge it into a Holy Artifact, you’ll need higher-grade Void Gold, namely Fifth Level materials - Holy Void Gold!

But Fifth Level materials are not common, and Space Fifth Level materials are even rarer.

At present, our Great Flame does not have this.

And after all these years, unless someone has a stockpile, it’s probably hard to find Holy Void Gold in the wilderness of the entire East Continent."

Su Yuan nodded; the Void Gold back then was found in the New Dust Realm.

Still, no matter what, at least the Heavenly Lock has the hope of being elevated to a Holy Artifact, and that’s good.

As for Holy Void Gold, there’s time in the future; it depends on whether it can be found in some Secret Realm later.

"I understand. Thank you, Grandmaster Wen." Su Yuan picked up the Heavenly Lock, gently caressing it before putting it away.

Wen Zhong waved slightly, "It’s a small matter."

Su Yuan cupped his hands and said, "If that’s the case, I’ll take my leave for today."

"Very well, Royal Envoy Su, take care, Tian Zhi, see the envoy off."

"Yes!"

...

Leaving Miracle Workshop, Su Yuan went straight out of the Yan Court and headed home.

This journey had both provided him with a method to "accelerate cultivation" in a roundabout way and secured a Holy Artifact "somewhat suitable" for himself.

Although not perfect, he was quite satisfied with the harvest.

Returning home, Su Yuan went straight to the Qingming Realm to refine the Canghai Yidou.

Activating this treasure is extremely consuming, indeed not something King’s subordinates could endure.

Unfortunately, for now, its power couldn’t be tested, so Su Yuan could only temporarily put it away.

Honing skills wouldn’t delay the cutting of firewood, so Su Yuan immediately studied the array map of the Sunrise Sunset One-Year Array.

The basic array theory of this formation is a Yin Yang Formation.

With Su Yuan’s current Seventh Level Array Path cultivation, even though the Sunrise Sunset One-Year Map was rather complex, he mastered it completely within one to two months.

On this day, atop Qingming Peak, Su Yuan sat within a drawn array.

Raising his hand to seal, a golden divine wind immediately roared out, blowing into the two array eyes of sunrise and sunset of the formation.

The power of time was injected into the array; suddenly, the sky brightened and dimmed, and time flowed rapidly between the two array eyes.

"It’s done!"

Su Yuan’s eyes brightened, and he immediately flew into the array.

But as Su Yuan entered, the previously intense flow of time suddenly became sluggish as if bearing an astonishing load.

"Originally, it had a time acceleration of over 10 times, but now it’s compressed to about 3 times... this is with Returning Ruins Divine Wind and Qingming Realm, no wonder the Imperial Throne said it was quite unremarkable to others."

After a brief thought, Su Yuan softly said, "Qingming!"

"Chirp!"

A phoenix cry sounded, and a pitch-black large phoenix spiraled down from the sky.

At the same time, Earth Qi surged, swimming dragons ascended, and the auxiliary Dragon Vein also responded.

Surging Star Power immediately gathered towards this place, and the slightly sluggish array resumed rapid flow.

"It’s reached over 10 times again!"

Su Yuan merely felt it slightly and couldn’t help but secretly nod.

It’s not just Returning Ruins Divine Wind, but the Sunrise Sunset One-Year Array, which has a limit of about tenfold.

However, even so, it’s quite impressive!

Phoenix Vein continuously supplied high-concentration Star Power to the Sunrise Sunset One-Year Array;

The Sunrise Sunset One-Year Array autonomously triggers the Power of Time from the Returning Ruins Divine Wind.

Within it, there’s no need for any personal intervention.

"Returning Ruins Divine Wind not only dramatically enhances combat strength, but its auxiliary abilities are also top-notch!"

Su Yuan experienced it briefly, finding no impact on his comprehension of the Law, and couldn’t help but feel delighted.

Su Yuan stood up, waved away the Phoenix Vein, and looked at Mo Fei and others cultivating in seclusion on the square below.

"Mo Fei, Ruan Ruan, Antonios, come and try cultivating here."

Mo Fei and the others had already noticed the commotion on Su Yuan’s side and were very curious. Upon hearing this, they immediately flew forward and stepped into the array.

"This... the flow of time seems to have changed!" Mo Fei exclaimed just as he entered.

Antonios was equally astounded!

Everyone was an expert at the Burning Sun Level, and in just a moment, they realized the difference inside and outside the array, immediately understanding what this meant.

In the high-concentration Star Power of the Qingming Realm, cultivation speed was already several times faster than that of the outside Tiger Vein.

If one were to cultivate within this array... could the speed increase by over tenfold?

With both combined, wouldn’t there be nearly a hundredfold enhancement!

Thinking of this, Antonios swallowed hard, "Boss, to be able to set up such an array!"

"Puchi puchi!"

Su Yuan laughed, "You all focus on cultivating within this array and quickly break through to the Three Suns Realm.

If Ruan Ruan finds the opportunity, break through to the King Level using the dragon vein below!"

Ruan Ruan shifted back to her human form, her eyes shining as she patted her chest, "Yes, master, I guarantee a breakthrough!"

Su Yuan nodded, he wasn’t in a hurry either, and decided to let the Sunrise Sunset One-Year Array help them break through first.

Especially Ruan Ruan, with the Devouring Law, Star Power was not an issue.

Now, with the help of the Demon Emperor’s Soul, she was already preparing for a breakthrough.

Su Yuan left the Qingming Realm and, after spending a few days with his parents, headed towards the Western Desert...

Yuantong Island, the ground trembled slightly, and Star Power surged.

Upon return, Su Yuan’s first task was to use the Phoenix Vein to absorb the newly obtained Dragon Vein.

In just one year, the Dragon Vein had taken root deeply, making extraction slightly strenuous.

As the second Dragon Vein was implanted in the Qingming Realm, the realm expanded significantly, with mountains, hills, and plains evolving within.

At the same time, Su Yuan’s Star Power indeed increased by half again!

The Qingming Realm conveyed a slight "feeling of fullness", indicating that such absorption also has its limits.

Su Yuan subtly nodded, looking at the Qingming Realm, and with a wave of his hand, separated the area of the second Dragon Vein and left it above Yuantong Island.

Su Yuan flew out of the Qingming Realm and looked at the Qingming Imprint in front of him.

"By using the Dragon Vein to suppress a part of the space, making it permanent here, the Star Power on Yuantong Island remains full, and..."

Su Yuan closed his eyes and formed a seal with his hands, and the dragon-shaped Qingming Imprint before him lit up;

At the same time, an identical Qingming Imprint lit up at Su Yuan’s residence within the Flame Court Sky Patrol Department.

It seemed Su Yuan only needed a single thought to transport himself to any location with an imprint!

"Every subsidiary Dragon Vein can support one long-distance teleportation.

Even if the space where the Dragon Vein is located is placed outside, it does not affect the Phoenix Vein’s ability to mobilize the power of each subsidiary Dragon Vein through the Qingming Imprint.

With this long-distance teleportation imprint, traveling between the Western Desert and the Flame Court becomes extremely convenient, and if needed, even cross-continent teleportation is possible!"

With a single thought, the Qingming Imprint once again concealed itself in the Void.

If its Star Power and fluctuations were restrained, it would be impossible for an ordinary person to detect it.

...

On this day.

On the western sea area of Yuantong Island, Su Yuan stood quietly on the water’s surface.

Not far in front of him, the Stone Funnel suspended in mid-air, its brilliance flowing, as if endless seawater was churning and rotating above, emitting shocks that made one’s heart tremble.

Then, suddenly, intertwined Wind and Thunder threads emerged from the Stone Funnel.

In just a dozen breaths, the increasingly violent Wind and Thunder stirred up a storm, whipping up a tsunami, transforming into a sea hurricane with a thundering eye!

The Stone Funnel trembled continuously under such destructive Wind and Thunder energy.

Su Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he formed a Seal Technique, his entire Star Power surging continuously, gathering more Star Power to fully activate the Stone Funnel.

But the Wind and Thunder were too overwhelming, and after a stalemate, he still couldn’t stabilize the violently shaking Stone Funnel.

With a "buzz," a figure wrapped in Wind and Thunder soared from the mouth of the Stone Funnel and landed nearby.

Yang Yifeng stopped the Sword Blade Storm, his face pale, panting heavily, looking extremely bedraggled with his clothes sheer as a drowned rat.

Su Yuan raised his hand to recall the Stone Funnel, looking at Yang Yifeng with a smile: "Thank you, teacher, for testing the power of this treasure for me."

"Goodness, I really don’t want to go in there a second time!"

Yang Yifeng clicked his tongue, and with a gust of Wind Star Power, blew all the water off his body.

"A Holy Artifact is indeed a Holy Artifact, this thing is truly dominating, even for me, it took every bit of my strength just to get out.

If I had been a little later, and more strength had been worn away by the Canghai Water within, even a Sword Blade Storm wouldn’t have helped me escape!"

Seeing Yang Yifeng say this, Su Yuan nodded secretly, extremely satisfied with the power of the Stone Funnel!

One must know, Yang Yifeng had just successfully broken through to the Fourth Stage with the help of Tornado Mad Firefly, using the Seventh Grade Skill, Sword Blade Storm.

Even Yang Yifeng needed such effort to escape the funnel; other Low Stage King Rank beings, without significant means... this treasure alone might just suppress them!

As for the consumption... Indeed, this treasure’s consumption is astonishing!

With two Dragon Veins, Su Yuan already possessed more than twice the Star Power of an ordinary King Rank.

But just by activating the Stone Funnel for a while, Su Yuan felt a significant drain of Star Power.

However...

Su Yuan’s thought flickered, and the dense Star Power within the Qingming Realm gushed into the Star Sea, with the rapidly consumed Star Power replenished at an astonishing speed.

For Su Yuan, consumption wasn’t much of an issue.
