Zhang Junbao had promised to follow the Venerable Tiehuo in cultivating and refining treasures during his time World Lord. After becoming World Lord, he secluded himself in Chaos City for three hundred years before heading to the Outer Domain Battlefield, never fulfilling his promise.
The powerful Alien Race races are definitely all outside Chaos City preparing to hunt him down. He might as well take this opportunity to improve himself.
" Venerable Tiehuo, to be honest, I felt this Supreme Treasure was incomplete as soon as I obtained it. Supreme Treasure only contained a piece of information saying it was a Supreme Treasure, but it didn't mention anything about the other parts. I'm really worried about how to find them!"
For professional questions, it's best to consult a professional.
"Although you have a strong talent for crafting treasures, you have not cultivated for long enough and have too little experience, so it is natural that you cannot see it."
Some treasures may have multiple forms, but they require their owners to have a certain level of Law Comprehension, willpower, and Divine Power before they can activate them.
Most of the Heavy Treasure and Supreme Treasure circulating in the universe are like this.
There are three ways to find out if a treasure has multiple forms.
One way is to use the treasure for a long time and experience its characteristics. Once it reaches the level of Supreme Treasure, the Supreme Treasure itself will possess a trace of intelligence. The Supreme Treasure will actively want to strengthen its own power, and once it encounters a missing part of itself, it will emit a strong sense of calling.
Zhang Junbao looked at the Venerable Tiehuo in surprise. He originally thought that only God King Supreme Treasure like the Shi Wu Wings the power of summoning, but it turned out that other Supreme Treasure could also have it.
As a master of Treasure Refining among the Human Race, Venerable Tiehuo was naturally very clear about this.
"Then why don't I feel any sense of summoning from my Supreme Treasure longsword?" Zhang Junbao asked.
"There are many factors involved. It's possible that your Supreme Treasure is too far away from its other components. While Supreme Treasure can sense its own components, there is a certain range. Each Supreme Treasure has a different sensing range; some can only be sensed on the same planet, while others can sense the call of Supreme Treasure components from light-years away."
"This might be the reason you didn't feel the call from the other parts."
"The second method is the simplest, but also the most difficult. That is to let the Supreme Treasure Spirit tell you," said Venerable Tiehuo.
" The Supreme Treasure Spirit —even among Supreme Treasure, only a very small number possess Supreme Treasure Spirit."
"That's right. Some Supreme Treasure develop a wisp of intelligence during the crafting process, becoming the Supreme Treasure Spirit. Just as a long-term auxiliary intelligence can give rise to Intelligent Life, the Supreme Treasure Spirit understands the Supreme Treasure best. Therefore, it will gradually guide its master to Supreme Treasure and perfect the Supreme Treasure."
If Supreme Treasure Spirit is not born, the owner can only rely on themselves to slowly familiarize themselves with and explore it, which is extremely time-consuming. Some powerful individuals even discover, hundreds of thousands or millions of years after acquiring their treasures, that their treasures actually have Second Layer or Third Layer stage.
Zhang Junbao nodded, seemingly lost in thought. Luo Feng, after Shi Wu Wings, possessed his own Supreme Treasure Spirit, but once the Supreme Treasure became incomplete to a certain extent, the Supreme Treasure Spirit would fall into slumber or disappear entirely.
If he hadn't happened to encounter the Alien Race Venerable on the Primal Star and discovered another pair of wings, he wouldn't have known that his Shi Wu Wings were actually incomplete.
"What about the third method?"
While the first two methods mentioned by Venerable Tiehuo are feasible, they rely entirely on luck and are highly uncertain. Although they can indeed determine whether Supreme Treasure is incomplete, they either take an extremely long time or depend entirely on luck.
"Hehehe, this third one is a unique ability we, as Treasure Refiner, possess—our keen eyesight!"
"Eyesight?" This answer was indeed somewhat unexpected for Zhang Junbao.
"Don't underestimate the eyesight of a Treasure Refiner. Thousands upon thousands of treasures have been created by our hands. No one knows more about the crafting of Heavy Treasure, or even Supreme Treasure treasures, than we do."
Therefore, when fighting against a strong opponent, I can tell at a glance what techniques were used to refine the treasures they use, what secret patterns were engraved on them, and what kind of power they possess.
Even shortcomings in the refining process can be noticed.
"Think about it," Venerable Tiehuo said with a smile. "If an enemy is wielding a Heavy Treasure War Blade and you immediately spot its Heavy Treasure, wouldn't the threat posed by that Heavy Treasure be significantly less to you?"
Zhang Junbao's eyes lit up. For someone who cultivated the True Meaning of Taiji, such insight was extremely important.
"It's not just a matter of the threat being smaller; even a slight flaw in combat could lead to a fatal outcome. Even a minor misunderstanding when using a treasure could be magnified infinitely."
My True Meaning of Taiji can deflect a thousand pounds with four ounces of force, and naturally it can also magnify the enemy's slightest mistake a hundredfold or a thousandfold.
"Although Immortal God can have 100% control over their bodies, not everyone can achieve absolute perfection when using Heavy Treasure or Supreme Treasure."
If the power exertion of a Heavy Treasure War Blade cannot be perfectly matched with its Combat Secret Technique, there will be slight deviations when exerting power, which even the owner of the treasure may not be aware of.
When you fight him, seizing the slight deviation in his force to attack could very well turn the tide of battle in an instant.
"Impressive. Such discerning eyes are indeed an advantage of Treasure Refining," Zhang Junbao said admiringly.
Many Heavy Treasure, even Supreme Treasure, in the universe are not custom-made. Perhaps a treasure was designed for its first owner, but after countless years, its owner perished, and other powerful individuals acquired the treasure. Although they could still unleash the treasure's power, achieving a 100% perfect fit was extremely difficult.
"Based on my experience of crafting treasures over millions of epochs, your Supreme Treasure, the ' True Martial Demon-Subduing Sword,' was forged using Mechanical Flow techniques. The sword blade is composed of countless tiny components, which can be shrunk to the size of a sesame seed or grown to enormous size, just like its original form: the Central Star Core, the core of a planet with a diameter of 18 light-years."
Just like Luo Feng's Shi Wu Wings, after being refined and integrated into the body, they can be large or small. They can be as large as covering a huge planet with billions of kilometers in area, or as small as a starburst, making them extremely unique.
As a Mechanical Flow Supreme Treasure, Zhang Junbao's ' True Martial Demon-Subduing Sword ' also possesses the same ability.
"The secret runes on the sword contain the Ten Great Laws, and the power of any one of these Law can be unleashed through this Supreme Treasure."
Most importantly, the secret runes involving the Ten Great Laws were perfectly integrated, forming a seamless whole. If I hadn't sensed the fluctuations of each Law Secret Patterns, I might have even doubted whether this was a completely new Fusion Law.
"If it's so perfect, why can you still sense that it's incomplete?"
"It is precisely because its runes are so perfect that this Supreme Treasure appears so imperfect," said Venerable Tiehuo with a mysterious expression.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Zhang Junbao asked, puzzled.
"Hmph..." Venerable Tiehuo looked up at the sky, his face full of smugness.
"There are times when you don't know, don't you? Beg me, beg me and I'll tell you!"
When the two of them were refining the Zhou Heavenly Star Battle Formation together, Venerable Tiehuo was repeatedly shocked by Zhang Junbao's unique understanding of the Law, making him, a master of Treasure Refining, feel quite embarrassed.
Now that Zhang Junbao has something he doesn't understand, he naturally wants to save face.
"You're getting all worked up over me. Take it or leave it, stop acting all mysterious! I'll just ask the Demon Lord Luan Shen later. Although he's not as good as you at crafting treasures, he's miles ahead of you when it comes to Law Comprehension."
I refuse to believe that if you can see the problem, he wouldn't!
Zhang Junbao made a move to put away the Supreme Treasure longsword directly, completely ignoring Venerable Tiehuo. The two had never been strangers to arguing.
"No, no, no, I'll tell you, okay?"
"Seriously, in my millions of epochs of life, this is the first time I've ever seen a World Lord call a great Universe Master his brother. It's an absolute cosmic wonder!"
Venerable Tiehuo still yielded. He only wanted to show off his talent in front of Zhang Junbao, and there was no need to involve the Demon Lord Luan Shen.
Zhang Junbao dares to be so casual, but he wouldn't dare.
As for the claim of being sworn brothers, Venerable Tiehuo was right. Although Zhang Junbao and the Demon Lord Luan Shen were not true brothers, they were fellow disciples. However, to protect Zhang Junbao, the Chaos City Lord and the Demon Lord Luan Shen tacitly concealed this fact.
Zhang Junbao's current strength is not enough to bear the terrifying pressure brought by the identity of ' Original Ancestor disciple'.
The fact that he killed over a thousand Alien Race King Rank simply because he was World Lord was enough to prompt various races to send their Universe Overlord to kill him. If his identity as a disciple of the Original Ancestor were exposed, then it would probably not only be the Universe Master, but also the Universe Supreme Master from various races, who might all be sent to kill Zhang Junbao.
The fear that the Original Ancestor instilled in them still lingered in the hearts of all races, even after he was suppressed by the Universe Origin for countless eons.
"Think about it, would a Supreme Treasure with such a perfect combination and such harmonious runes only be a Supreme Treasure?" said Venerable Tiehuo.
Upon hearing this answer, Zhang Junbao was taken aback. It turned out that it wasn't that the Venerable Tiehuo had noticed any flaws in the True Martial Demon-Subduing Sword. After all, as Supreme Treasure of the Mechanical Flow, if it had obvious flaws, it probably wouldn't have been valued so highly by the Beast Ancestor.
"If such Supreme Treasure is called Top-tier Supreme Treasure, or even comparable to the Peak Supreme Treasure of the Chaos City Lord, I would believe it."
It absolutely cannot be just a prototype of Supreme Treasure.
"Based on its Mechanical Flow crafting techniques, I can be certain that this is absolutely a flawed Supreme Treasure," said Venerable Tiehuo firmly.
As a top-tier Treasure Refining master, Venerable Tiehuo has his own dignity and pride, and he absolutely will not allow himself to make any mistakes in crafting treasures.
His ability to reach such a firm conclusion proves that he has absolute confidence.
"You concluded that this Supreme Treasure is incomplete based on this alone?"
"Isn't that enough? As a Treasure Refiner, being able to determine the final grade of a treasure before it is even refined is the most basic common sense."
How could Treasure Refiner capable of crafting such a perfect treasure overlook such a fundamental technique?
However, the secret runes on this Supreme Treasure are inconsistent with its power level; what else could it be but incomplete?
"What's most admirable is that, despite lacking a crucial component, it remains perfectly flawless as Supreme Treasure. I even suspect it might be a treasure born from the Original Universe. As far as I know, even among the Alien Race Treasure Refining, only a handful can achieve this level of perfection."
"Not a product of the Original Universe?" Zhang Junbao was very impressed with the judgment of the Venerable Tiehuo. According to the information left behind by the Beast Ancestor in the True Martial Demon-Subduing Sword, this Supreme Treasure was obtained by him from the Universe Ocean.
"This involves a secret of the universe, which you are not yet qualified to know," said Venerable Tiehuo solemnly.
Zhang Junbao smiled slightly and did not ask any further questions.
He knew that the secret mentioned by the Venerable Tiehuo was the existence of the Universe Ocean. Before becoming Universe Overlord, ordinary powerful beings were not qualified to know the secret of the existence of the Universe Ocean beyond the universe.
After all, even if they knew of the existence of the Universe Ocean, they were not qualified to go there.
The Universe Ocean is extremely dangerous; even the Top Universe Overlord are only the minimum requirement to enter Universe Ocean.
Some races even require the strength of a Universe Master before they will be told about the existence of the Universe Ocean. Otherwise, leaving the Original Universe to enter the Universe Ocean is nothing more than being sent to their doom. It is not a place where ordinary Universe Venerable can survive.
Although Venerable Tiehuo did not yet possess the strength to enter the Universe Ocean, he was Treasure Refiner with a special status, and was therefore qualified to know of the existence of the Universe Ocean.
Even the treasures acquired by powerful humans in the Universe Ocean would be examined by Venerable Tiehuo. After all, not all Heavy Treasure Supreme Treasure intact, and if Venerable Tiehuo had the ability to repair them, it would be incredibly good news for the powerful individuals who obtained them.
"Can you tell which parts are missing?"
"This Supreme Treasure appears to be perfectly intact on the surface, and the materials used in its construction are also extremely special. It is not a case of missing structural components."
Judging from the eight fusion Law Secret Patterns on it, it can be inferred that the person who originally crafted this Supreme Treasure intended it to possess the power of the fusion of eight Law.
"This idea is extremely audacious. In the universe, who can master all eight Fusion Law?" Venerable Tiehuo exclaimed.
"Unless you're a freakish genius!"
A glint flashed in Zhang Junbao's eyes. Just because the Venerable Tiehuo didn't know didn't mean he didn't know. Besides himself, there were at least two other people in the universe who possessed such qualities.
One of them was the Demon Lord Luan Shen, who originally cultivated the Path of the Fusion of the Eight Great Law, which was very similar to the Path of the Beast God.
The other one is the Starry Sky Behemoth Progenitor. As the Universe Supreme Master truly cultivated the Path of the Beast God to its peak, the Starry Sky Behemoth Progenitor also mastered the Path of Fusion of the Eight Law.
However, these two individuals were of extremely high status, and even Venerable Tiehuo could not obtain their contact.
Even the original owner of this Supreme Treasure, the Beast Ancestor, had mastered the fusion of the eight Law. After all, Zhang Junbao obtained this Supreme Treasure from him.
"Although we don't know where the original parts are, it's clear that what's missing is the Beast God, which represents the origin of the eight Fusion Law in the universe."
"Based on my speculation, this Supreme Treasure originally should have had eight other components, each representing Beast God Crystallization, signifying one of the eight Fusion Law."
"What does 'born Beast God Crystallization' mean?" Zhang Junbao asked, puzzled.
"With your permission, you should already be able to find information about the Beast God in the universe, right?" Venerable Tiehuo glanced at Zhang Junbao, then walked straight to the sofa next to him and sat down.
"I've learned a bit about it."
"That's good, that way you can understand when I explain it."
" The Fusion Law is the necessary path for Universe Venerable to advance to the Universe Master, and it represents the Universe's Origin of Laws."
The Path of the Beast God is to cultivate to its ultimate level, thereby transforming into Beast God. Beast God are divided into Acquired Beast God and Innate Beast God. Those powerful individuals who ultimately comprehend the entire Path of the Beast God through cultivation and obtain the position of Beast God are considered normal Beast God.
At the birth of the universe, however, some ' Beast God ' were born who were the Universe Master and were themselves the Law Avatar fusion.
They are the Innate Beast God!
Zhang Junbao nodded; this information matched what he had found in the Virtual Universe Network.
The Venerable Tiehuo continued, " Innate Beast God are Special Lifeform nurtured by heaven and earth, possessing extremely powerful strength. However, Innate Beast God are destined to be hunted, and each hunt for Innate Beast God is a grand gathering of all the powerful beings in the entire universe."
"Like the Ancestral God of Viska Star?"
"Hehe, I almost forgot you've been to Viska Star."
"That's right. Generally, after the soul of a powerful being in the universe is forcibly annihilated, the body left behind is a valuable material that can be used to refine some special treasures."
When Zhang Junbao and his companions first discovered Hu Yanbo's remains on Earth, his body was among the items found in the spaceship he left behind. The remains of an Immortal God alone were enough to attract other Immortal God to fight over them, which is why Zhang Junbao dared not take them out when they first left Earth.
" Innate Beast God are different from Acquired Beast God; they are formed from the essence of the universe and are born as moving treasure troves."
Its scales, its fur, its blood—everything possesses extraordinary effects, far more precious than a thousand or ten thousand ordinary Supreme Treasure. The siege of the Innate Beast God is a grand feast, a feast for numerous super beings.
The Venerable Tiehuo knew this information because he was Treasure Refiner. Ordinary powerful people do not know how to Treasure Refining. Even if they obtained a part of the Beast God's divine body, they could not use it directly. Only when Treasure Refiner refined it into a treasure could it unleash its power.
"So they became easy prey in the eyes of all the powerful beings in the universe, just like I was in the Outer Domain Battlefield before." Zhang Junbao smiled slightly, seemingly empathizing with the situation.
"Hehehe, you could say that. But the powerful figures who surrounded and killed you are no match for those who surrounded and killed the Innate Beast God."
"In the universe, various races fight each other for resources. When they encounter a naturally born Innate Beast God, a veritable treasure trove, they will not let it go easily."
" Universe Overlord, Universe Master, and even the Universe Supreme Master might make a move. Unless one hides permanently, their demise is almost unavoidable," sighed Venerable Tiehuo.
"And your Supreme Treasure actually dares to attempt to use the condensed essence left behind by the Eight Beast Gods as a component—such an idea is utterly audacious!"
"Using the essence of the Eight Beast Gods as components?" Zhang Junbao took a deep breath. Even though he vaguely guessed that this Supreme Treasure was related to the Eight Beast Gods, such a terrifying design still shocked him.
"That's right. In the universe, there are very few Innate Beast God Innate Beast God. It's even questionable whether they possess all eight Fusion Law. Yet he dared to use their essence as components to refine Supreme Treasure."
Once completed, it will likely be a terrifying existence at the very least, a Peak Supreme Treasure.
The more the Venerable Tiehuo learned about the ' True Martial Demon-Subduing Sword,' the more alarmed he became. What terrifying Supreme Treasure had Zhang Junbao retrieved from the Outer Domain Battlefield?
"I even doubt whether the other parts of this Supreme Treasure ever actually existed. Or perhaps the Treasure Refiner created it only conceived of such a thing without actually forging the other parts."
After all, even if other parts are missing, Mechanical Flow can still unleash the power of a supreme Supreme Treasure.
This nascent Supreme Treasure is no ordinary artifact!
" Junbao, information about this Supreme Treasure must never be revealed to the Alien Race races, otherwise you may attract extremely terrifying enemies."
"What enemy?" Zhang Junbao asked.
"That is the most mysterious force in the universe, and also the largest force in the universe!"
