Yuan Ming gathered up all the Storage Artifacts of the Setting Sun Sect members. Then he opened Asura Palace, tossed them all inside, and suppressed them.
Just as Yuan Ming was about to continue on his way, Kong's voice suddenly rang out in his sea of consciousness.
"Heh, your luck is quite good. Wang Fulong and the others have something you need in their Storage Rings."
"What is it?" Yuan Ming immediately asked.
"Well Rail Sand, Peerless Leaf Brush, and Ink Cloud Pine Resin," Kong said.
Hearing those names, Yuan Ming only found them somewhat familiar at first, but then realization suddenly struck him.
"Aren't those the supplementary materials still needed to refine the Moon God Ring?" Yuan Ming asked in delight.
"With these materials, all the spiritual materials needed to refine the Moon God Ring have been gathered. Refinement can begin. Both your mana cultivation and body cultivation have advanced, so your soul cultivation must pick up the pace as well," Kong said.
Yuan Ming was overjoyed. He hurriedly searched through their Storage Artifacts and, sure enough, found the three spiritual materials within. Together with the other materials, he sent them into the Heaven-Stealing Cauldron's space.
"For some time to come, I'll be focusing on refining the Moon God Ring. Don't bother me again," Kong's voice said.
"I'll have to trouble you, Senior," Yuan Ming hurriedly replied.
After waiting a while and hearing no further voice from Kong in his sea of consciousness, he suppressed his delight. After some brief consideration, he set off again.
He did not continue following that larger spiritual vein, instead heading toward the interior of the silver mountain range.
After venturing deep into the silver mountain range, the land was no longer entirely desolate. Lush vegetation began to appear, along with some demon beasts.
