Chapter 127 The Clan's Foundation in Weapon Forging
Time flies, and it seems like only a blink of an eye has passed since Li Che took over five thousand years as the head of the All-Universe Trial of the Giant Axe Life-and-Death Battle.
On this day, in the primordial universe, in a desolate starry sky on the edge of the Nine Flames Universe Kingdom, Li Che's human form sat cross-legged at the top of the Guixu Fortress, his entire body swirling with the power of infinite primordial laws.
Those are not the primordial laws of time or space, but a collection of laws that blend fire, metal, lightning and space. They are bound and shaped by some kind of mysterious runes, transforming into a huge cauldron that is more than 8,000 kilometers tall.
This is a secret technique created by the Lord of the Barbarian Amber Law in the Jin world. It is not an offensive technique, but an auxiliary technique, used only for the "furnace" needed for forging and refining weapons.
Judging by the standards of the original universe, this self-created secret technique called "Savage Amber Furnace" can be considered a pinnacle secret technique of the universe master.
At this moment, the enormous furnace, as large as a planet, is roaring, with flames, golden light, and lightning surging within, tempering the unfinished artifact in an extremely violent yet incredibly delicate way.
After more than five thousand years of immersive weapon crafting in the world of Jin, he finally spent all his remaining four treasure points to buy a complete set of materials for crafting powerful treasures.
Through the endless golden fire and lightning, one could almost see pieces of armor slowly rising and falling.
Meanwhile, in the starry sky, two onlookers are witnessing the forging process of this brand-new treasure.
"Heavenly, one of them is none other than Mo'alani, the military commander of the Giant Axe Arena. This immortal military commander has now become Li Che's personal secretary, responsible for helping Li Che handle many miscellaneous matters of the person in charge of the Giant Axe Life and Death Battle."
At this moment, this powerful immortal military lord, at the level of the 14th level of the Tongtian Bridge, was staring blankly at the vast cauldron in the distance, his pupils trembling slightly.
She was merely an Immortal Military Lord. Although she was knowledgeable and experienced, she was not at the level to access great treasures. She only knew that the occasional bursts of fire, gold, and lightning from the cauldron were enough to annihilate her immortal divine body into ashes in an instant.
"...Incredible skill!"
The other person fortunate enough to witness the birth of this treasure was actually a true cosmic venerable. He was a venerable from the cosmic dragon race, with his entire body covered in gleaming white scales that flowed with the power of the complete laws of space.
However, this Venerable One's aura was much weaker than Li Che's; he was a low-level Universe Venerable One with a lower genetic level and more ordinary secret techniques.
At this moment, the cosmic venerable one stood there, gazing intently at the enormous cauldron before Li Che, filled with awe.
Venerable Fu is a junior cosmic venerable of a lineage of the First Bank of the Universe. He is a person with expertise in refining treasures and is also the errandman responsible for delivering the treasures purchased by Li Che.
Upon learning that the young Venerable Guixu intended to use these treasures to forge weapons, Venerable Fu was delighted and took the initiative to request to watch.
Li Che's methods did not disappoint Venerable Fu.
This novice cosmic venerable was clearly very devout in his pursuit of weapon crafting, his gaze fixed on the enormous cauldron atop the Guixu Fortress, unwilling to look away for even a moment.
"Buzz!"
It wasn't until decades later, when the armor plates, tempered by lightning, flames, and golden light, gradually lit up with layers of secret patterns and broke free from the cauldron, that Venerable Fu was jolted awake and recovered from his shock.
He saw that Venerable Guixu, who had been sitting cross-legged above the fortress, had stood up, with 1081 jade-like armor plates flying around him, shimmering with a soft light.
"The ordinary heavy treasure armor and the spirit-derived jade armor are now complete."
Li Che swept his divine power across the law-inspired runes on the armor plates, quickly completing the naming and evaluation of his precious armor.
The ordinary heavy treasure armor, the Spirit Jade Armor, specializes in physical defense and is considered a heavy treasure crafted by Li Che based on the characteristics of materials available to the human race.
This treasure is based on the laws of space and consists of two layers of runes. When the first layer of runes is activated, it can reduce all attack damage within a certain range by 95%.
Activating the second layer of runes can reduce a certain level of material attacks to one-thousandth of their original strength. However, the reduction efficiency will decrease sharply when subjected to higher levels of damage, and the attack may even be destroyed.
This is a fairly standard ordinary heavy treasure armor. According to Li Che's estimation, this thing should sell for around 10 heavy treasure points in the clan.
Holding this precious armor in his hands, Li Che couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Only after getting involved in weapon crafting can one truly appreciate the power of the Mountain-Sitting Guest's crafting techniques. The supreme treasure armor crafted by that former God King of Jin, even as a low-level byproduct, possesses the effect of weakening both material and soul attacks.
Even Li Che can't reach that level yet. In his five thousand years of weapon crafting experience, he can only craft ordinary heavy treasure weapons and ordinary heavy treasure armor.
Both Li Che himself and the Lord of the Savage Amber Law believe that Li Che does not seem to have much talent in weapon crafting.
"Congratulations on the successful refinement of the treasure, Venerable Guixu!"
At this moment, Li Che heard the sound of laws coming from afar. The Venerable Fu, who had requested to watch his treasure-refining process, had arrived and was looking at Li Che with great enthusiasm, his eyes even showing a hint of mutual appreciation.
"Venerable Fu is too kind. In the end, it's just an ordinary treasure armor," Li Che said, shaking his head.
From his perspective, this mere ordinary treasure armor is nothing special. It's completely useless in battles at the level of a high-level universe venerable. With a burst of power, Li Che could easily crush it.
"But Venerable One used materials worth only 4 Treasure Points to forge armor worth at least 10 Treasure Points. Such material utilization efficiency is extremely high even within our clan." Venerable One's focus was somewhat different from Li Che's.
As expected of a cosmic master who focuses on refining artifacts.
Through his access privileges, Li Che learned about the life of this cosmic venerable one.
The other party is actually a rather young Universe Venerable. The time it took to become a Venerable was similar to that of the Nine Swords Venerable. However, after reaching the Venerable level, the other party did not increase his combat power, but instead spent more than 100,000 epochs focusing on the path of weapon forging.
It is said that this venerable one has reached the level of skill in crafting ordinary weapons and armor-type treasures.
After that, Venerable Fu actually chose to go to the Craftsman God Star, wanting to try to learn the basics of treasure refining from the disciples of the Craftsman God Lord.
Unfortunately, Venerable Fu's strength was too weak among the Universe Venerables. He was tricked by two Universe Venerables of the Demon Race and died directly in the Universe Secret Realm where Craftsman God Star was located.
It was only recently that this Cosmic Venerable was resurrected, and the one who resurrected him was none other than Li Che's teacher, the Lord of Void Gold.
Right now, Venerable Fu is paying off his debts to his clan. He not only owes a considerable amount of valuable treasures, but also occasionally has to accept the clan's orders and run around doing odd jobs.
"Even when refining weapons, one must first improve one's own strength. My level as a beginner Venerable is simply too weak."
Having experienced death, Venerable Vajrapani's understanding of the universe clearly changed somewhat.
Li Che nodded, and after seeing off Venerable Fu, he immediately opened the virtual universe to learn about the human race's weapon crafting situation.
