Of the six ' Beast God Inheritance Token ' that Zhang Junbao obtained, two came from a race called the ' Desolate Ancient Race '. This race was merely a high-level cosmic power, with the strongest member being only a Universe Master and the rest being a few Universe Venerable. In the eyes of some top-tier powers, they were hardly worth considering.
However, this race is known for its fierce fighting style. Their body structure, similar to that of the Demon Race, gives them extremely strong physical abilities. The Life Gene Level of the entire race is more than 8 times higher. Although they cannot compare to the top races of the universe, such as the Starry Sky Behemoth, they should not be underestimated.
The most distinctive feature of their tribe is that each member has two giant horns on their head. Some point straight up like two spears, while others spiral upwards like the winding Yellow River. The special patterns on the horns intertwine to form unique Secret Pattern Diagram, which also represent the combat power of each Desolate Ancient Race.
Inside a Treasure Refining room provided by the Master of Craftsman God, Zhang Junbao sat on a divine throne of the Heavy Treasure level. In the Master of Craftsman God ' Treasure Refining room, anything below the Heavy Treasure level was not even qualified to appear before him.
At this moment, three powerful figures sat before Zhang Junbao. One was a tall man from the Desolate Ancient Race, with a pair of enormous horns on his head forming an exaggerated arc, as if he were about to pry open the universe and spacetime. This man was cautiously rubbing his hands together, chatting with Zhang Junbao with great enthusiasm.
Beside him, a Demon Race and a Machine Race Universe Venerable were staring at the burly man before them, whose face was clearly fierce but who now had to put on a fawning smile, their lips twitching slightly.
The two of them, proud of their status, couldn't be as humble as the big man. For a dignified Universe Venerable to be chatting and laughing with Zhang Junbao like a street vendor, he was indeed trash from a lowly race, not as noble as the powerful beings from top-tier races like themselves.
"' Daoist Sanfeng,' I want a Supreme Treasure that can complement my Innate Secret Technique ' Giant God Headbutt,' preferably one that can be equipped on my two giant horns."
The burly man's originally fierce face was now beaming with smiles, like a brothel madam, as if he were about to cover his mouth with a silk handkerchief and chuckle.
" Venerable Kuiniu, you are a natural-born darling of the Law of Metal. If you can combine Supreme Treasure with your Innate Secret Technique, you can indeed maximize its power."
"I wonder if Venerable Kuiniu could demonstrate and explain your Innate Secret Technique, ' Giant God Headbutt,' to me? This way, I can better tailor a supreme Supreme Treasure for you. This Supreme Treasure will work in conjunction with your Innate Secret Technique. Unless it is obtained by a member of your clan with the same Innate Secret Technique, others will not be able to unleash its power. What do you think?" Zhang Junbao said with a smile.
Zhang Junbao felt quite amicable towards the Universe Venerable who had completely lowered his stance. It was the first time he had met such an approachable Universe Venerable. Normally, even though he held a high position in the Virtual Universe Company, those Universe Venerable always acted superior.
At most, his attitude was better because he was the disciple of the Chaos City Lord, but I had never seen anyone like Venerable Kuiniu who completely disregarded his status as Universe Venerable.
Logically speaking, Innate Secret Technique are the foundation of every strong person's power, and they cannot be easily revealed to others, much less be demonstrated to a stranger.
But Venerable Kuiniu didn't care at all. Although he appeared to be a rough man, he had actually seen through the ways of the world after years of wandering in the universe. In the face of strength and interests, face was nothing but trash and could be discarded.
The status and airs of Universe Venerable are no match for a truly Supreme Treasure.
"Don't mention it. If it weren't for the fact that you can't learn this Innate Secret Technique, I would teach it to you directly. Our races are not as good as those top races, who have a lot of treasures in their clans, and they may even be given Heavy Treasure or Supreme Treasure directly."
For us, obtaining even one Supreme Treasure is a stroke of luck, let alone Supreme Treasure tailor-made for our race. Even if others try to seize it, it will be of no use.
Such Supreme Treasure is truly too precious. To be able to exchange it for just two ' Beast God Inheritance Token ' is an absolute steal for our clan." Venerable Kuiniu thumped his massive chest, making a loud thumping sound, as if he were beating two bronze drums.
"Hehe, these are my rules. If I say I can exchange two ' Beast God Inheritance Token ' for one Supreme Treasure, then I will exchange for one." Zhang Junbao didn't dwell on it. He had fused with life genes within the Flame Gourd for over two thousand years and had cultivated under the Master of Craftsman God for over three thousand years. Now, he had a profound understanding of the Innate Secret Technique of Special Lifeform forms.
This also means that as long as he has studied the corresponding Innate Secret Technique in advance, the Supreme Treasure he refines will be able to greatly enhance the power of the Innate Secret Technique.
Now, a powerful expert like Venerable Kuiniu is offering himself up for practice, and he's even paying for it, which is an incredible opportunity for him. As for the time and effort involved, that's not a problem at all.
The two ' Beast God Inheritance Token ' were merely his payment; the materials were provided by Venerable Kuiniu himself.
That's why every Treasure Refiner is one of the wealthiest people in the universe; they make money incredibly fast.
"This stupid ox has truly disgraced our Universe Venerable. Judging from his aura, that ' Daoist Sanfeng ' should only be an Immortal God. Even if he is King-level Immortal, he is not enough to make the Universe Venerable so humble."
"Venerable Kuiniu is a disgrace to all Universe Venerable!" The Machine Race's ' Venerable Kurui ' sneered, disdainfully transmitting his voice to the Demon Race's ' Venerable Pingtian '.
"His ' Desolate Ancient Race ' may seem to be close to my Demon Race, but in reality, it is just a bloodline that my Demon Race has eliminated, and it does not belong to my Demon Race clan at all."
To be so humble and subservient to an Immortal God —truly a inferior race.
However, I feel like I've heard the name ' Daoist Sanfeng ' somewhere before." Venerable Pingtian carefully sensed Zhang Junbao's aura, but since the Extreme Yang Clone Jiadu, had never ventured into the universe alone, how could Venerable Pingtian be familiar with his aura?
"The fact that the Daoist Sanfeng can be on friendly terms with the Master of Craftsman God suggests he has a powerful background. However, I have never heard of any other clan producing such a top-tier Treasure Refining genius. To be able to refine Supreme Treasure at the Immortal Level is truly terrifying!" Venerable Kurui exclaimed.
" The Master of Craftsman God treats us Demon Race and your Machine Race as equals, yet he takes great care of the ' Daoist Sanfeng.' How could an ordinary Treasure Refiner possibly use Craftsman God Mountain to forge Supreme Treasure?"
Even when the most skilled Treasure Refiner of my Demon Race came, the Master of Craftsman God didn't give them a friendly look. It seems we need to investigate this thoroughly." Venerable Pingtian said after some thought.
"Are you out of your mind? This is Craftsman God Star! If the Master of Craftsman God finds out you want to make a move here, even if the Universe Master of your Demon Race comes, it won't end well!"
On the Craftsman God Star, even if the Universe Supreme Master came, they couldn't do anything to the Master of Craftsman God. Generally speaking, if Universe Master came, the Master of Craftsman God would be able to crush his opponent with his Supreme Treasure treasures alone. In terms of Supreme Treasure in the universe, even the Chaos City Lord who possesses the Thousand Treasure River probably couldn't compare to the Master of Craftsman God.
Who told him he could forge such Supreme Treasure himself?
Not enough Supreme Treasure? Just hunt for them yourself. Why bother searching everywhere for hidden Supreme Treasure in some corner of the universe like other powerful individuals?
Kui Niu Venerable, who was unaware of the telepathic communication between Venerable Kurui Venerable Pingtian Venerable Kuiniu, could still sense the contempt and ridicule in their eyes.
Venerable Kuiniu glanced at it, but instead of being angry, he chuckled to himself.
"These two fools think they're superior just because they're Universe Venerable. After all, there's only one Master of Craftsman God, and very few people can ask him to forge Supreme Treasure; the conditions are extremely high."
The ' Daoist Sanfeng ' in front of them was quite easy to talk to.
"How could someone so highly praised by the Master of Craftsman God be an ordinary Treasure Refiner? Although the Master of Craftsman God is known for his forthright personality, he becomes incredibly serious and focused when it comes to Treasure Refining. To earn his approval, the Daoist Sanfeng must be no Ordinary Immortal. Who has ever seen an ordinary Immortal capable of refining Supreme Treasure?"
"The face of Universe Venerable is nothing compared to Supreme Treasure!"
Having roamed the universe for so many years, I've witnessed countless arrogant faces from these top races. In their eyes, other races are probably inferior, not worthy of their equal treatment. Even if the Daoist Sanfeng is capable of refining Supreme Treasure, he's just a tool in their eyes.
Arrogance and conceit—that is the folly of even the most powerful beings of the Universe Venerable.
"I've cultivated a good relationship with the Daoist Sanfeng. When he's forging this Supreme Treasure, he might be in a good mood and put in a little more effort, making the Supreme Treasure even more powerful. I'll benefit from that."
As for those two fools, the Supreme Treasure crafted for them were probably only barely passable. Even among Supreme Treasure of the same level, the way the secret techniques are activated and whether they match the Law one has comprehended will severely affect the effectiveness of the power.
It's even possible that the Daoist Sanfeng, in a bad mood, might conceal some of their power, making it take them tens or even hundreds of thousands of years to discover it. They're used to being high and mighty; how could they possibly understand the feelings of other cultivators in the universe?
Suddenly, Venerable Kuiniu noticed that Zhang Junbao was looking at him with a knowing smile on his face.
" Venerable Kuiniu, let us begin. Venerable Kurui, Venerable Pingtian, please wait a moment."
Zhang Junbao said with a smile that he had already learned about the Venerable Kuiniu's Innate Secret Technique ' Giant God Headbutt ' and was preparing to refine Supreme Treasure for him.
Upon seeing Zhang Junbao's smile, Venerable Kuiniu immediately understood.
"He actually saw through my thoughts, what terrifying mental cultivation! I'm afraid the Daoist Sanfeng thought the same thing. But this is fine too, let those two fools suffer a hidden loss, satisfying, truly satisfying!" Venerable Kuiniu chuckled inwardly, feeling his body become lighter.
These are not the elite races; they have long been fed up with the exploitation of the elite races as they roam the universe.
They get to choose the best treasures first, and even if they get them first, they'll have to hand them over due to the pressure from their power.
No one wants to be oppressed by others for their entire life, but if their ethnic group is weaker, they can only endure it.
However, this does not mean that other races do not want to resist. If given the opportunity, they will not hesitate to retaliate against the top races.
Just like now, Venerable Kuiniu guessed Zhang Junbao's feelings, and Zhang Junbao also understood that Venerable Kuiniu knew his plans, but the two of them were very tacit and neither of them said anything, since they were not the ones who would suffer losses anyway.
This seemingly rough-around-the-edges Universe Venerable, who was actually quite sensitive, made a good impression on Zhang Junbao. The universe is not just about fighting and killing; it also involves human relationships and worldly wisdom.
Eight hundred years later, Zhang Junbao crafted a supreme Supreme Treasure for the Venerable Kuiniu.
"Hahaha, this Supreme Treasure ' Giant God ' can not only cover my horns, but also form a pair of gauntlets that echo my horns. In this way, my combat power can directly approach that of High Venerable!" Venerable Kuiniu laughed loudly.
"Hehe, your Innate Secret Technique ' Giant God Headbutt ' originally required the giant horns on your head and your hands to work together. Luckily, I had enough materials, so I forged it into Supreme Treasure set. It's a pity that my current abilities are insufficient, and the materials are also a bit lacking, otherwise I might have been able to forge High-grade Supreme Treasure."
"That's enough. This one Supreme Treasure is comparable to two others, and I only paid the price of two ' Beast God Inheritance Token.' I really feel bad about it. ' Daoist Sanfeng,' I owe you a favor. In the universe, no matter who I'm dealing with, I, Old Ox, will be there whenever you call!" Venerable Kuiniu patted his chest and promised.
"Thank you very much, Venerable Kuiniu."
Zhang Junbao did not refuse. He had indeed put a lot of effort into this Supreme Treasure, the ' Giant God,' and incorporated his knowledge and insights from the Master of Craftsman God into it.
"If you don't mind, I'd like to stay here a few more days to familiarize myself with the new Supreme Treasure. If there's anything I don't understand, I'll have to ask you for guidance." Venerable Kuiniu simply refused to leave, acting as if he were already very familiar with the place.
Over the past eight hundred years, the two had communicated frequently in order to refine Supreme Treasure for him. This ' Desolate Ancient Race ' Universe Venerable, who was forthright, meticulous, and without the airs of Universe Venerable, won Zhang Junbao's favor.
"You can stay as long as you want. Combat is prohibited on Craftsman God Star, so you have plenty of time to familiarize yourself with the Supreme Treasure."
Eight hundred years later, Zhang Junbao forged supreme Supreme Treasure for the Demon Race's Venerable Pingtian and the Machine Race's Venerable Kurui.
The timing alone is enough to show Zhang Junbao's differential treatment.
The combined time spent crafting the Supreme Treasure of the other two was only comparable to that of Venerable Kuiniu.
"Gentlemen, this is your Supreme Treasure. Please accept it."
"Very good. As expected of a master Treasure Refining recognized by the Master of Craftsman God, you have crafted our Supreme Treasure so quickly. However, this Supreme Treasure does not seem to be as good as that of Venerable Kuiniu. Are you perhaps looking down on my Demon Race?"
Having accepted the Supreme Treasure, Venerable Pingtian suddenly changed his tone, half-closing his eyes as he stared at Zhang Junbao, a powerful aura emanating from him.
" Venerable Pingtian, what are you trying to do?" Venerable Kuiniu immediately sensed something was wrong and stood in front of Zhang Junbao to protect him.
" Venerable Kuiniu, don't bring unnecessary trouble upon your clan. Some things are not for your ' Desolate Ancient Race ' to meddle in. Be careful not to bring annihilation upon your clan." Venerable Pingtian sneered and said contemptuously.
"Are you threatening me?" Venerable Kuiniu said with an unfriendly expression.
"That's right, you're nothing more than Universe Venerable of a lower race, not even High Universe Venerable, yet you dare to be so insolent before me! Get out of my way!"
What if I don't leave?
"Then I will suppress you today, and your ' Desolate Ancient Race ' will also be suppressed by the Universe Master my clan!"
"What!" Venerable Kuiniu was completely taken aback. Venerable Pingtian had actually brought up the Universe Master. This was definitely not as simple as the difference in quality between some Supreme Treasure.
" Venerable Kuiniu, thank you for your kindness, but I think he came for me. When did you find out, Venerable Pingtian?" Zhang Junbao stepped out from behind Venerable Kuiniu and looked at Venerable Pingtian.
"As expected of a top Human Race genius, you guessed everything with just a slight provocation. Originally, I only felt that the name ' Daoist Sanfeng ' sounded familiar, but through my clan's intelligence system, I discovered that it was actually you, the most outstanding genius World Lord in hundreds of millions of eons of Human Race, ' Aurora King ' Zhang Junbao!"
"You used this title during the Genius Battle, but a title alone is not enough to confirm it's you. However, your promise to be able to refine Supreme Treasure with all the attributes of the Law proves that you have a deep understanding of all Ten Great Laws."
With the same title and the same comprehension of the Ten Great Laws, perhaps only you, ' Aurora King ' Zhang Junbao, could achieve this in the entire universe.
I must say, I underestimated your courage.
"Knowing that my Demon Race has issued a universal kill order, you still dare to show your face."
"This is the Craftsman God Star, aren't you afraid of the Master of Craftsman God?"
"Do you think I would attack unprepared? The Lord of Sky Wolf of my Demon Race has already descended. The Master of Craftsman God is probably too busy to save you. You'd better just die!"
