Inside the Time Temple, Lu Qingshan slowly opened his eyes, before him floated the dark silver " Artifact Refining Manual - Volume One ".
Millions of years of research have given him a thorough understanding of the contents of this manual.
He has mastered 80-90% of everything from the most basic ore identification to the refining of True Treasure, and even the refining theory of Supreme Treasure.
"Theory is ultimately just theory; it still needs to be verified through practice."
Lu Qingshan closed the handbook and stood up.
"Millions of years of research, it's time to put it to the test."
He took a single step and entered the Divine Kingdom.
The World Tree still stands majestically, its canopy Shrouding the Heavens and radiating Endless vitality.
"Let's refine it right here."
Lu Qingshan chose a valley as his place for refining weapons.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, he took out a piece of ore that was entirely azure blue and had a surface that shimmered with Starlight.
" Mystic Water Meteoric Iron, one of the core materials for forging Supreme Treasure weapons." This was a treasure he found in the Tilted Peak Realm Waters. Its value was only average, but it was quite suitable as a practice material.
"With my current weapon-forging skills, I should be able to forge even the most basic Supreme Treasure weapons. Let's start with the simplest weapon."
Lu Qingshan took a deep breath and activated the divine power within his body.
A golden flame erupted from his palm, enveloping the Mystic Water Meteoric Iron.
The melting point of the Supreme Treasure material is extremely high, far exceeding that of the True Treasure material.
Even with his divine flames, it took him a long time to melt the meteorite.
"The smelting process went relatively smoothly."
Lu Qingshan used his spiritual power to probe into the ore and remove all the impurities.
He had already simulated this process countless times and was very familiar with it.
Soon, the Mystic Water Meteoric Iron turned into a pure, azure liquid, emitting a cold, eerie light.
"Next, it's time for shaping."
Lu Qingshan used his mental power to control the liquid, slowly deforming it. The prototype of a War Blade gradually appeared.
The blade is long and slender with a sharp edge, and the hilt is slightly curved.
"Sculpting successful."
Lu Qingshan nodded in satisfaction.
"However, this is only the most basic form. The real difficulty of Supreme Treasure lies in its secret runes."
He took a deep breath and began to inscribe the secret runes.
Runes of Law Secret Patterns emerged from his fingertips and were imprinted on the blade.
The sharpness of the Law of Gold, the fluidity of the Law of Space...
Various Law Secret Patterns intertwined, forming a vast array of Law Secret Patterns Diagram.
"The inscription of secret runes is the most crucial step in refining Supreme Treasure."
Lu Qingshan dared not be careless in the slightest.
Even the most ordinary Supreme Treasure requires at least tens of thousands of secret runes to form a qualified Supreme Treasure Secret Pattern Diagram. Each secret rune must be precise and accurate, otherwise the entire artifact may be ruined.
"Path 9999..."
"The Ten Thousandth Path!"
Lu Qingshan didn't expend much effort and quickly imprinted the last secret rune onto the blade.
Buzz!!!
The War Blade trembled violently, bursting forth with a blinding blue light.
The light was so intense that it slightly distorted the surrounding space.
"It's done!"
A hint of joy flashed in Lu Qingshan's eyes as he reached out and gripped the hilt of the knife.
A powerful force surged into his divine body, resonating with his divine power.
" Ordinary Supreme Treasure War Blade, the quality is not bad."
With a gentle wave of his hand, a blue blade of light ripped through the void, splitting a small mountain in the distance in two. The sharpness of that blade of light far surpassed any of the True Treasure he had previously crafted.
"Success on the first try! My million-year research in the Time Temple was worthwhile."
Lu Qingshan looked at the War Blade in his hand, his eyes filled with satisfaction.
"Let's call the first Supreme Treasure... Mystic Water."
The fact that he could refine Supreme Treasure so quickly is partly due to millions of years of research; over the years, Tie Shan has also brought him a lot of experience rewards.
He could sense that his newly accepted disciple had been working very hard over the years, and his weapon-refining skills were improving every day.
Lu Qingshan knew that this must be thanks to Venerable Lei Ming...
After taking Tie Shan as his disciple, Tie Shan's importance in Venerable Lei Ming's heart had risen to the highest level. He would definitely not hide anything from this disciple in terms of weapon forging, and would pass on all his weapon forging experience to this disciple.
After all, Venerable Lei Ming was a smart man. He knew that his future might depend on his disciple.
With Tie Shan's progress, teacher Lu Qingshan will naturally reap even greater rewards...
Lu Qingshan took out the weapon-refining manual again and looked at it.
Although this manual is incomplete, it contains all the crafting techniques for Top-tier Supreme Treasure and below, enough for him to study for a long time. Moreover, this thing... is even better than the secret techniques; he can organize and redo it.
Once he is able to forge Top-tier Supreme Treasure, this manual will pose no difficulty for him.
By then, he could completely rewrite this manual and create a " Qingshan Artifact Refining Manual," which he could then bestow upon his disciples. In that case, he could probably reveal the forging techniques for Peak Supreme Treasure or even the Supreme Supreme Treasure.
Of course, these are all things for later; he hasn't fully studied the weapon-refining manual yet, so naturally he can't reorganize it.
Then, he began to review the process of refining the weapon.
Compared to the later steps of inscribing the secret runes of the Supreme Treasure, the earlier steps were clearly more difficult for him.
Besides lack of experience, there is also a lack of the necessary conditions for weapon crafting.
The flames he generated from his divine power were still very strong, but they couldn't compare to the flames specifically used for refining weapons.
For example, when he was on the Craftsman God Star, he used the flames inside the black gourd of the Master of Craftsman God to forge weapons, which was obviously much easier.
This is just Ordinary Supreme Treasure, which is fine. But if it were High-grade Supreme Treasure or even Top-tier Supreme Treasure, the materials required would be extremely difficult for his divine flames to melt.
Most weapon-refining masters have their own forging tables. Apart from imprinting secret runes, they can complete other steps with the help of tools. It is extremely rare for someone like Lu Qingshan to be able to refine weapons out of thin air in any random place... Only weapon-refining masters can be so casual when forging True Treasure.
"Perhaps with a suitable set of refining tools, my refining skills could be improved further," Lu Qingshan thought to himself.
As for suitable tools... he didn't plan to purchase them himself... anyway, he would go to Craftsman God Star again, and then he could ask the Master of Craftsman God to compensate him with a set.
The Lord of Flint has come to him specifically to report on him; wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't take this opportunity to give the Master of Craftsman God a warning?
Ancestral God Religion, Xue You Continent.
Purple Rain Venerable... no... now should be called Palace Master Purple Rain, is standing in the Xue You Divine Hall, his expression respectful.
" Purple Rain, now that you've broken through to the Universe Master, what arrangements have the Ancestral God Religion Sect made?"
Lu Qingshan sat upright on the throne and asked calmly.
"Teacher Hui."
"The Palace Master Purple Rain said respectfully."
" The Ancestral God Religion has appointed me as its Guardian Lord, giving me command over all Core Member. The Two-Faced Ancestral God Religion Two-Faced Ancestral God personally summoned me, inquired about my needs, and ultimately bestowed upon his disciple a Peak Supreme Treasure Weapon!"
" Peak Supreme Treasure Weapon." Lu Qingshan was not surprised.
The Ancestral God Religion bestows far more generous gifts upon the Universe Master than the Human Race. When he broke through to the next level, he was granted an even more precious set of Peak Supreme Treasure Armor.
Of course, his actions were influenced by the personal favors of his teacher, the Old Ancestral God; the actions of Palace Master Purple Rain are more normal.
However, for him now, neither Peak Supreme Treasure Weapon nor armor mean anything.
" Purple Rain, I have summoned you here today because I have a treasure to bestow upon you."
Lu Qingshan flipped his hand and took out a mirror that was entirely azure blue and had countless water ripples flowing across its surface.
As soon as the mirror appeared, the entire hall was enveloped in a hazy, shimmering light.
It was as if an Endless ocean was churning in the mirror.
"This is..."
The Palace Master Purple Rain was shocked.
He could sense the terrifying power of this treasure.
Back in the Five Elements Space-Time, it seems the teacher used this treasure before, directly covering the entire Five Elements Space-Time and easily finding the Mirror King. This treasure must be of a very high level.
"This is the Surging Waves Water Mirror, Top-tier Domain Supreme Treasure. I obtained it from the third treasure of the Ancestral God Religion Treasure Land back then. It's of no use to me now, but its attributes happen to match yours, so it will be more powerful if you use it. Therefore, I'm giving it to you."
" Top-tier Domain Supreme Treasure!"
Palace Master Purple Rain took a deep breath.
Domain-type Supreme Treasure are already rare, and Top-tier Domain Supreme Treasure are even more precious. They are several times more valuable than his Peak Supreme Treasure Weapon.
His teacher had already bestowed upon him a Top-tier Supreme Treasure Armor not long ago, and he never expected that not long after, he would be given another Top-tier Domain Supreme Treasure.
This made him somewhat apprehensive.
"Teacher, this treasure is far too precious."
"Take it."
With a wave of his hand, Lu Qingshan sent the Surging Waves Water Mirror flying to the front of the Palace Master Purple Rain.
"You are my eldest disciple. When you go out into the world, you will represent my reputation. It's unacceptable that you don't even have a decent Domain Supreme Treasure."
"Thank you, teacher!" Palace Master Purple Rain nodded repeatedly, not daring to refuse again.
Seeing that the Palace Master Purple Rain accepted the Surging Waves Water Mirror, a smile flashed in Lu Qingshan's eyes.
This treasure was obtained from the Treasure Land, so naturally it could be returned. He was also looking forward to seeing what treasure would be returned this time.
[You bestowed upon your disciple, Palace Master Purple Rain, the Top-tier Domain Supreme Treasure Surging Waves Water Mirror, and received a ten-thousand-fold return; you, in turn, obtained the Supreme Supreme Treasure, the Canghai Divine Light.]
A cashback offer was then displayed.
It truly is Supreme Supreme Treasure.
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly and looked at his disciple Palace Master Purple Rain, once again.
" Purple Rain, go back and familiarize yourself with the secret patterns of the Surging Waves Water Mirror. With these treasures now, your strength will improve even further. Even if you encounter the Lord of Sky Wolf again, you'll probably be able to suppress him."
"Teacher, the Lord of Sky Wolf has defected to the Human Race and is now a member of the Hong Alliance. It is no longer appropriate for me to attack him," Palace Master Purple Rain hurriedly said.
"Hehe, I was just saying... Since the Lord of Sky Wolf has sided with the Human Race, there's really no need to harm him. You can go back now."
"Yes, disciple takes his leave."
The Palace Master Purple Rain bowed respectfully, then turned and left the temple.
The distant Human Territory.
Within the Divine Kingdom.
A deep blue mirror appeared in Lu Qingshan's hand, reflecting what seemed to be an Endless ocean.
The Domain Supreme Treasure, the Canghai Divine Light.
After learning about the treasure, Lu Qingshan discovered that it had no special abilities and was no different from ordinary Domain Supreme Treasure.
"My Xue You Clone possesses the Eternal Star River, and my main body also has the Wings of Life, which are sufficient for now. I will give this treasure to the Chaos City Lord!"
Lu Qingshan did not forget his original promise.
His gaze fell once again on the mirror that shimmered with a blue light.
The question is whether the Chaos City Lord can withstand the fact that the first treasure he presents is such a precious Domain Supreme Treasure.
