Super God Golden Crow Record

Chapter 27 Stealing the Sky and Changing the Sun

A golden light streaked across the starry sky, covering thousands of miles in an instant.

Zhao Chen activated the Golden Crow Escape Light, and his entire body completely disappeared into the starry sky.

The Teda Star is getting bigger and bigger in the field of vision.

The blue planet floated silently in the sky, a few transport ships drifting outside its atmosphere, and occasionally a patrol of angels flew by. Everything was normal, as if he had never been there.

"Nothing was found."

Zhao Chen felt much more at ease.

He slowed down, quietly passed through the atmosphere, and headed towards the mine.

With keen eyesight, he operated.

The world became transparent to him.

He could clearly see the fluctuations in the aura of those angels in the mine—the ordinary overseers had a faint halo around them, like fireflies; the three powerful beings on the mountaintop shone like torches, and even from hundreds of thousands of feet away, their pressure made his golden core tremble slightly.

Equivalent to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

"There are quite a lot of people."

Zhao Chen silently withdrew his gaze and turned his attention to the warehouse.

The warehouse was piled high with dark red ore, more than he had seen last time. Nearby were several piles of silvery-white ore, emanating faint spatial fluctuations. What excited him most was the pile of eerie blue ore in the corner—seventeen pieces, each radiating a strange chill.

"Be careful."

With a thought, he activated the Disguise Technique from the Seventy-Two Transformations of the Earthly Fiends. His body rapidly shrank, transforming into an inconspicuous bee, which flapped its wings and flew towards the warehouse.

The bees were so small that even the patrolling angels wouldn't give them a second glance. Zhao Chen flew close to the ground and slipped through the crack in the warehouse door.

The warehouse was much larger than he had imagined.

The dark red ore was piled up like a mountain, radiating a scorching heat; the silvery-white ore emitted spatial fluctuations; the seventeen dark blue ore pieces lay quietly in the corner, as if calling out to him.

Zhao Chen transformed back into human form, took a deep breath, and began to act.

He didn't rush to devour it all. Instead, he first took out a feather that he had shed—an old feather he had collected after transforming, which he had kept in his stomach. He activated the Disguise Technique, turning the feather into a dark red ore, its appearance and aura almost indistinguishable from the real thing.

He wanted to test the effect of using feathers to transform into fake minerals first, and then replace them with real ones if anyone came over. That way, even if someone suddenly came in to inspect, they wouldn't be able to spot the flaws in a short time.

He swallowed a piece of ore, and then one piece of ore after another disappeared.

He moved incredibly fast; in less than fifteen minutes, he had collected over a hundred pieces of dark red ore. He also started stuffing the silvery-white pieces into his mouth.

Just as he reached out to grab the pile of dark blue ore, he suddenly sensed with his divine sense that someone was coming this way!

That aura is approaching, equivalent to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm.

Zhao Chen's pupils contracted.

There's no time to leave. There's still more than half a warehouse of ore left. If it's discovered that so much is missing, it will definitely trigger a large-scale search.

Zhao Chen made a decisive decision.

He opened his mouth and inhaled sharply, swallowing all the remaining ores—dark red, silvery white, and deep blue—without leaving a single piece. His stomach was instantly packed full, making it difficult to breathe. He regretted not learning the Pot Heaven technique first.

But it's too late for him to regret it now.

With another thought, he took out a handful of feathers from his abdomen; he had collected over a hundred old feathers during his transformation. He exhaled a breath onto the feathers, and the feathers, imbued with his divine power, instantly transformed. They turned into the shapes of minerals—dark red, silver-white, and even a few dark blue—though their aura was somewhat weaker, they were enough to confuse him for a short time.

Feather ore fell in a flurry, instantly filling the entire warehouse. On the shelves and on the floor, it was piled up exactly as before.

Finally, Zhao Chen glanced at himself. He took a deep breath, his figure blurred, and he transformed into a dark red ore, landing on top of the most conspicuous pile of ore. He remained motionless, his aura completely concealed, indistinguishable from a real ore.

The warehouse door was pushed open.

An angel entered. He wore silver-white armor, possessed an aura equivalent to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, and had a uniquely shaped longsword hanging at his waist. He scanned the warehouse, his gaze sweeping over the "ores," without noticing anything unusual.

"Yes, everything is normal."

He muttered something to himself, then turned and left.

The warehouse door was closed.

Zhao Chen waited another fifteen minutes to make sure there was no second wave of patrols before quietly reverting to his original form. He landed on the ground and let out a long breath.

"That was close."

He glanced at the warehouse full of feather ore and grinned. These fakes would last a few days; by the time the angels realized something was wrong, he'd be long gone.

Zhao Chen transformed into a bee once more and quietly left the warehouse.

It flew at high speed, breaking out of the atmosphere and entering the starry sky.

The Golden Crow's escape light was activated at full power, covering tens of thousands of miles in an instant. Only when it was millions of feet away from Teda Star did it find a meteorite to land on.

Looking back, Teda Star had shrunk to a dim dot of light.

No one chased after the angels.

"It's a success."

Zhao Chen grinned, sat down cross-legged, and began to count the ore in his stomach.

Dark red ore: 872 pieces.

Silver-white ore: 230 pieces.

Dark blue ore: seventeen pieces.

There were also some miscellaneous items, which added up to more than a thousand dollars in total.

"I've struck it rich."

He couldn't stop smiling.

---

In the days that followed, he remained on the meteorite and began frantically refining the ores.

Following the method in the [Refining Array], he first took out the Chaos Bell.

He removed a dark red ore from his stomach, and pure Yang fire surged forth, refining it into pure fire-attribute energy. Zhao Chen manipulated this energy, carefully inscribing it onto the bell.

"Solid Array" - the most basic defensive array pattern, which can make magical artifacts even more durable.

One, two, three...

Each time a new array pattern is formed, the bell body vibrates slightly and emits a deep, resonant hum. Those array patterns shimmer with golden light, deeply imprinted inside the bell body, becoming one with it.

Over three days, he used thirty pieces of dark red ore to carve ten "fortified arrays" on the Chaos Bell. The patterns on the bell became more complex, and its defensive power increased several times over.

Then there's the God-Slaying Spear.

The killing patterns on the spear were naturally suited to support offensive formations. He chose the "Sharp Edge Formation" and the "Armor-Piercing Formation," both of which would make the spear's edge even sharper and more penetrating.

Over five days, he used fifty pieces of dark red ore to carve eight "Sharp Arrays" and six "Armor-Piercing Arrays" on the God-Slaying Spear. The spear's sharpness intensified, and a gentle swing could leave deep cracks in the void.

Finally, there's the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife.

The throwing knife was too thin, making it extremely difficult to inscribe array patterns. He tried more than ten times, failing each time, and was so frustrated that he almost threw the knife away. But he finally succeeded—a "concealment array" was inscribed on the blade, increasing its transparency and making it almost completely disappear from sight.

But this is not enough.

He took out the silvery-white ore, refined it, extracted spatial energy, and carefully infused it into the throwing knife.

This is "feeding" the throwing knife, not inscribing an array, but it's far more dangerous. The spatial energy is extremely violent; the slightest mistake could tear the blade apart. He can only integrate it bit by bit, each time consuming a vast amount of mental energy.

One yuan, two yuan, ten yuan, twenty yuan...

The throwing knife greedily absorbed spatial energy, its blade becoming increasingly transparent and ethereal. When it absorbed the fiftieth piece, the knife trembled violently and vanished completely from sight.

Zhao Chen used his mental power to barely pinpoint its location—it had disappeared into the spatial folds, merging into the void.

With a thought, he sent a flying knife piercing out from a spatial fold, covering a hundred feet in an instant, before disappearing into another spatial fold.

"It's done."

He grinned.

He used the remaining 180 pieces of silvery-white ore to enhance his throwing knives. By the time the last piece of ore was refined, the throwing knives could truly disappear into space, becoming almost imperceptible even to him.

---

There were 872 pieces of dark red ore, and more than 700 pieces remained.

Zhao Chen did not stop.

The Chaos Bell needed even more array patterns. He inscribed five more "Solid Defense Arrays," pushing the defense to its limit. The patterns on the bell's surface were densely packed, as if it were meant to be this way from the start.

The God-Slaying Spear needed even greater lethality. He then inscribed six more "Sharp Arrays" and four "Armor-Piercing Arrays," making the spear's sharpness so intense it could tear through the void.

When all seven hundred-plus dark red ores were used up, the three magical artifacts had completely changed their appearance.

The Chaos Bell is engraved with fifteen "Solid Arrays", greatly increasing its defensive power.

The God-Slaying Spear was engraved with twelve "Sharp Arrays" and ten "Armor-Piercing Arrays," making its spear light several times more fierce.

The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife absorbed all the spatial ores and underwent a complete upgrade—now it can truly disappear into spatial folds, moving thousands of feet in an instant, killing without a trace.

---

There are seventeen pieces left.

A dark blue mineral.

Zhao Chen stared at them, lost in thought for a long time.

Pure Yang fire is extremely Yang, while dark blue ore is extremely Yin. Perhaps it can neutralize the Yin coldness—moreover, isn't the divine soul energy contained in these ores exactly what the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife needs most?

The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife is designed for stealth and surprise attacks. If it can be integrated with the attributes of the soul, it can not only be hidden in spatial folds, but also attack the enemy's primordial spirit, killing without leaving a trace.

"Give it a try."

He took out the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife. The transparent flying knife hovered in front of him, almost merging with the void.

He then took out a piece of dark blue ore the size of a fingernail, compressed the fire of the sun to its limit, turning it into a thin thread of fire, and gently wrapped it around the ore.

The ore softened slowly in the fire, emitting a faint blue mist. He carefully guided the mist with his divine soul power, channeling it into the throwing knife bit by bit.

The throwing knife trembled slightly, greedily absorbing the divine soul energy. Faint, eerie blue patterns began to appear on the originally transparent blade, appearing and disappearing, mysterious and unpredictable.

Three days later, the ore completely disappeared, and a faint blue halo appeared on the Immortal Slaying Flying Knife.

With a thought, Zhao Chen's flying knife vanished instantly—not by disappearing into space, but by directly entering his primordial spirit's sea of ​​consciousness.

He was stunned.

A throwing knife... can it be hidden in the sea of ​​consciousness?

This was something that had never happened before. Although the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife was transparent, it had always been a physical entity, only able to be hidden inside a gourd or in a spatial fold. But now, it could actually merge with the primordial spirit, becoming an existence between the real and the illusory.

"nice one!"

He was overjoyed and continued refining.

One yuan, two yuan, five yuan, ten yuan...

With each piece of dark blue ore incorporated, the dark blue patterns on the throwing knife deepened, and its connection with his primordial spirit became even stronger. When the seventeenth piece of ore was completely refined, the Immortal-Slaying Throwing Knife had completely changed its appearance—although it was still transparent, a dark blue light flowed within its blade, as if it were alive.

With a thought, the flying knife instantly appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness, circling around his primordial spirit; with another movement, it appeared in the spatial folds, ready to assassinate at any moment; with yet another movement, it had already returned to the gourd.

It can switch between three states freely.

More importantly, he could sense that the throwing knife could now not only inflict physical damage, but also directly attack the enemy's primordial spirit. As long as it pierced the body, even if the physical body was unharmed, the primordial spirit would be injured.

"This is what you call the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife."

Zhao Chen grinned and put away the throwing knife.

All seventeen pieces of azure ore were used up without a single waste.

---

A month later.

Zhao Chen sat cross-legged on the meteorite, focusing his inner vision on his dantian.

His nascent soul became more solidified, showing a faint trend towards advancing to the mid-stage of the nascent soul realm. All three magical treasures were completely renewed, their power increasing several times over. In particular, the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, after incorporating all the azure ore, now possessed the terrifying characteristic of attacking the nascent soul.

He stood up and looked in the direction of Teda Star.

The ore is gone, but the angels remain.

He wanted to see what the looted mine looked like now.

With a thought, Zhao Chen transformed into a golden light and simultaneously activated his invisibility ability, disappearing into the starry sky.

They sped off towards Teda Star.
