Chapter 153 Deceit and Treachery

After paying his respects to the Primordial Ancestor, Qi Yuan returned to the Human Treasure Vault Exchange Area next to Chaos City.

He donated the treasures he had seized from the Lord of Banff to the Treasury, exchanging them for many precious refining materials in preparation for upgrading the "Heavenly Evolution Sword" in his hands.

The Heavenly Evolution Sword, a divine weapon for martial artists, is just an ordinary treasure, and its usefulness to him is diminishing.

When he broke through to the Immortal level, he obtained the "Gongshu Ban" character card, which gave him a strong talent for weapon crafting; when he broke through to the Universe Venerable level, he obtained the "Mozi" character card, which greatly enhanced his mental state, willpower, and weapon crafting talent.

His will has reached the level of a nascent universe master, and his weapon-refining talent is a combination of the extraordinary talents of Gongshu Ban and Mozi, making him absolutely outstanding among all weapon refiners in the entire universe.

Moreover, he obtained the inheritance of the Lord of Starlight, more than half of which was about weapon crafting. In addition, he could also access the weapon crafting inheritance that the human race itself had, as well as the weapon crafting inheritance within the Ancestral God Sect.

Therefore, he did not intend to exchange for the treasure directly, but planned to refine it himself.

With so many excellent conditions, it would be a real pity if he didn't become a weapon refiner.

After exchanging for refining materials, he also exchanged for treasures that could enhance the genetic level of his human clone.

After exchanging the three treasure points, Qi Yuan looked at them and, after thinking for a moment, transferred them directly to his teacher, the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom.

It was with the help of the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom that he was able to enter the Virtual Universe Company through special admissions and then rise rapidly.

The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom had fallen twice, leaving him not only indebted to his people for their precious treasures, but also to many of his friends.

These three treasure points can help the Qianwu Kingdom Lord pay off his debts, and there will still be some left over, which can be exchanged for two precious treasures. Otherwise, it would be quite pathetic for a dignified high-level universe venerable to not even have a single piece of precious armor or weapon.

After Qi Yuan finished doing all this, he felt a sense of relief.

He knew that while improving his own strength was important, he could not forget those who had helped him.

Now, I offer these three precious treasures as a token of my gratitude, which can be considered as repaying the kindness of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler for his initial support.

"Qi Yuan, why did you transfer your Treasure Points to me? The stronger you appear, the more the alien races fear you. You need powerful treasures right now, why did you transfer them to me!"

Not long after, the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom hurriedly sought him out to meet in the virtual universe.

Upon meeting, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom wanted to return the treasure points to him.

"Don't worry, teacher, I know what I'm doing. I have enough treasures on me," Qi Yuan said with a smile.

After several refusals, the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom finally accepted the three treasures at Qi Yuan's insistence.

He paid off all the debts he owed to his friends and his clan, and used the remaining Treasure Points to exchange for a high-grade treasure armor and a high-grade treasure weapon, one for offense and one for defense, which brought his combat power back to the ranks of ordinary cosmic overlords.

When the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom repaid his debts, his old friends, including Venerable Beiming, Venerable Niuzhou, and Venerable Mei, were alarmed and contacted him one after another.

"Qianwu, how come you suddenly paid off your debts to us? We didn't even pressure you to repay. Don't be impulsive and go back to the Primordial Star!"

It must be said that the ruler of Qianwu Kingdom is very popular; even though he owes debts, his friends do not press him for repayment.

"Hey, you've got it wrong. These treasure points were transferred to me by my disciple Qi Yuan. I told him I didn't want them, but he insisted, and I couldn't refuse. Sigh!"

The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom shook his head smugly and said, "By the way, my disciple Qi Yuan's current title as the Lord of the Universe is Lord of Origin. You must remember that from now on. Hahaha—"

"Ganwu, you've really hit the jackpot!"

The Venerable Beiming and the others were so envious that their eyes turned red.

To be a disciple of a universe master is a glorious thought, but unfortunately, he's not their disciple. They can only watch as Qianwu flaunts himself in the Hongmeng's circle of universe masters every day.

In the days that followed, Qi Yuan's human avatar returned to the Ancestral God Cult.

He first borrowed the weapon-refining inheritance of the Ancestral God Sect from the ancient Ancestral God. Then, this clone focused its main energy on comprehending the inheritance of the Dongbi Ancestral God, striving to further enhance the origin of the universe. Obtaining stronger combat power was secondary; the main thing was that the deeper the connection with the origin of the universe, the better the talent of the laws.

The Ancestral God Cult is the place closest to the original will of the universe, and there will be certain bonus effects when communicating with the "Fortune Origin Tower" here.

His body, Tu Yu, returned to his divine kingdom to cultivate in seclusion, mainly to comprehend the secret patterns of the treasures on his body and to continue to comprehend the laws of space.

-

The Netherworld clone remained among the human race to learn about weapon crafting.

His knowledge of weapon crafting mainly came from the inheritance of the Lord of Starlight, and secondly from the insights of weapon crafting masters from the Ancestral God Sect and the insights of weapon crafting masters from the human race.

The strongest weapon refiner among humans is Master Peng Gong, who is capable of refining high-grade treasures.

Qi Yuan asked him for help and sought his guidance. He shared his knowledge without reservation and gave him careful instructions. He even took him to a secret realm specially set up for weapon crafting.

There is a special cosmic flame here, with an extremely high temperature. At the very core of the flame, it can even quickly annihilate the divine body of a cosmic overlord!

Qi Yuan plunged headlong into the preparations for refining the weapon.

He first sorted and categorized the precious refining materials he had exchanged, carefully studying the characteristics and uses of each material.

He used the most powerful secret technique bestowed by the universe, "Decomposition of All Things," and the "light of decomposition" in his eyes enveloped the piles of refining materials.

The materials that emitted a strange light seemed to be telling him about their own secrets.

Then he began to practice with these precious materials, starting with refining the most common treasures.

During this process, he integrated his knowledge of weapon crafting and became more adept at handling materials.

As his understanding of these materials became more comprehensive and in-depth, his insights into the laws also deepened.

This is normal. Everything in the universe is composed of laws, and analyzing the essence of materials is also a process of understanding these laws.

Qi Yuan was completely focused, constantly conceiving the appearance of the treasure he wanted to forge.

He formed hand seals and chanted incantations, carefully integrating various materials into the flames in a specific order and manner, proceeding with utmost care and without the slightest slackening.

As the artifact nears completion, he quickly inscribes the sacrificial runes, incorporating the unique refining techniques of the Yanji clan to add a new layer of power to the soon-to-be-completed treasure.

After a period of effort, Qi Yuan successfully crafted his first treasure.

This precious treasure is a long spear, its shaft gleaming with a cold, eerie light, as if it contained endless chill.

The spearhead was incredibly sharp, radiating a fierce aura, as if it could pierce through any obstacle.

It is engraved with the Flame Sacrifice Secret Rune, which adds a layer of "time acceleration" effect.

Qi Yuan held the spear and thrust it forward gently. He immediately felt a powerful surge of energy. The attack speed of the spear tip increased dramatically, shattering space and creating ripples.

He nodded in satisfaction. The power of this treasure had exceeded his expectations, making it stronger than most ordinary treasures.

With this successful experience, Qi Yuan became even more confident.

He continued to dedicate himself to the work of weapon crafting, constantly experimenting and exploring.

As time went on, he crafted more and more powerful treasures, and their quality improved over time.

Each of his treasures embodies his unique refining philosophy and techniques, especially the fusion of different Flame Sacrifice Secret Patterns, making them unique in the universe.

During this process, Qi Yuan's weapon-refining skills also continuously improved. His understanding of materials became more profound, and his comprehension of the laws became more thorough.

He can perfectly fuse various complex materials together to create even more powerful treasures. At the same time, he has also begun to try to integrate some special law runes into the treasures, giving them even more magical abilities.

The Netherworld Avatar was refining treasures in Master Peng Gong's "Divine Fire Secret Realm," rapidly digesting and assimilating various treasure-refining inheritances.

The Blood Sea continued to recover and expand within the divine realm, and at the same time, it embarked on the path of deciphering the genetic map of all things in the universe.

With the genetic material of various life forms in the universe provided by the human race, as well as the perfect genetic map obtained from the cultivation experience of the Queen of Twilight Star Kingdom after cultivating together, Qi Yuan's research proceeded relatively smoothly.

Although the life map within 10081 times the number of genes has not been fully studied, the progress is smooth and no bottlenecks have been encountered.

Over the long course of time, the ruler of the Twilight Star Kingdom has thoroughly studied the life spectrum within almost all perfect genes in the universe.

Qi Yuan's special talent allowed him to take a great shortcut and save a lot of effort after marrying the King of Muxing Kingdom.

Tu Yu's clone gradually comprehended "Spatial Lockdown". Along with the spatial teleportation he had already mastered, only "Spatial Strangulation" remained of the three great mysteries of space that he had not yet comprehended.

Once all three are fully comprehended and integrated into a complete spatial law, with all spacetime laws complete, it will be time to break through to become the master of the universe.

Over thousands of years, he occasionally used the "Analysis of All Things" secret method to analyze the secret patterns of the "Pagoda of the Origin of Fortune," which deepened his understanding of the Dongbi Ancestral God's legacy.

His clones are all diligently cultivating, and are making rapid progress in all aspects.

During this period, the Machine Race engaged in lengthy negotiations with the Human Race, the Demon Race, and the Insect Race, and then used treasures and territories to exchange for the Lord of Balance and the Lord of Sword Light.

As far as Qi Yuan knew, this time humanity not only obtained several top-tier treasures, but also more than 150 new cosmic kingdoms.

From then on, the number of humankind's space kingdoms reached 1200!

In the distant cosmos, four great thoughts traversed countless dimensions and descended upon this remote place.

"Dream Demon Ancestor, Earthquake Demon Ancestor, Empress, are your treasures ready? I've already discussed it with Stone, and we're just waiting for your treasures to arrive." A huge black sphere floated in the void, which was the usual image of the Mechanical Race Father God.

He had a deep friendship with the False Demon God, and Stone was his nickname for the False Demon God.

"Why not the Mountain-Sitting Guest?" the Dream Demon Ancestor asked. "That old fellow, the Mountain-Sitting Guest, is unfathomably powerful. I've never seen him go all out. Every time he makes a move, he can easily outmaneuver his opponent, and everyone who opposes him suffers greatly. I think it would be much more likely to succeed if we asked the Mountain-Sitting Guest to take action."

"Hmph! Do you think I don't know? But that old fellow, the Mountain Guest, just asks for the most powerful treasure without any sincerity at all." The Mechanical Father God complained in dissatisfaction, "If you can afford the most powerful treasure, maybe you can persuade him."

"Uh—actually, the Void Demon God is not bad either. He is quite powerful among the strongest lone beings in the universe, especially since he is proficient in soul illusion techniques, which gives him an advantage in assassinating Qi Yuan."

When the topic of supreme treasures came up, they all tacitly praised the illusory demon god and never mentioned asking the mountain-sitting guest for help again.

These supreme treasures are indispensable tools for them to establish themselves in the universe and intimidate others.

Trading away the most powerful treasure to kill a universe master—I doubt anyone in the entire universe would be willing to do that!

"Since you're asking Stone to help, are your treasures ready? He wants a supreme treasure!" The Mechanical Father God said, a suit of armor radiating a powerful aura appearing in his hand. "This Illusionary God Golden Armor was something I obtained with great effort in the God-Slaying Abyss. However, to eliminate that threat from the Origin Lord, I have no choice but to discard it."

"It's all prepared." The ethereal voice of the Dream Demon Ancestor rang out, and then a treasure radiating a dreamlike quality appeared in the void, its surface shimmering with strange light, as if containing boundless dreamlike power. "This treasure can help the True Demon God of Illusion advance further in his comprehension of the laws of dreams."

The Zerg Queen was not to be outdone. With a wave of her hand, a Zerg hive exuding an eerie aura appeared before everyone.

It was a flying palace radiating a terrifying, tremor-like power, which slightly distorted the surrounding space.

"This insect-nest-shaped palace is extremely powerful in both its flight speed and defensive capabilities, and it also possesses a powerful sealing force. If the True Demon God refines it, he will surely gain a great boost."

The Mechanical Father God looked at the three treasures and nodded in satisfaction. "Alright, now that the treasures are complete, let's begin the transaction. I'll notify Stone to come over." With that, he contacted the True Demon God through a special telepathic communication method.

Before long, the figure of the illusory demon god appeared in this cosmic starry sky.

He looked at the three treasures before him, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

"Haha, you're quite generous. In that case, I'm determined to take the life of the Lord of Human Origin! Just wait for my good news." With that, he waved his hand and put away the three treasures.

After the transaction was completed, these five great thoughts once again traversed countless spaces and departed, and the universe returned to peace.
