"The Armored Blade and the Primal Soul?"
The mountain dweller sighed: "It's not that I don't want to teach you, but given your current situation, are you sure you can concentrate on learning?"
"These two treasures are not ordinary; they are top-tier even among the most powerful treasures, and learning from them is no easy task."
Even if you master my treasure-refining manual, you'll only have the basics.
At this point, the Mountain Hermit glanced at his apprentice and said helplessly, "With your talent, it would take at least several hundred years of dedicated study to achieve anything, not to mention that you also have to focus on fighting the Star Tower. I'm really afraid that you might have a mental breakdown if you're not careful."
"It's only a few hundred years, my disciple. Can't you wait until the Lord's initiation ceremony is completed before you start learning?"
"Teacher, please rest assured." Chen Yuan smiled confidently. "Just teach me, and I'll take notes and study them slowly later."
"...Your ultimate palace with the ability to accelerate time was taken away by your clone, wasn't it?"
The Mountain-Sitting Guest immediately guessed his apprentice's thoughts: "You want to use your clone to practice in a time-accelerated environment?"
"Teacher, you are wise." Chen Yuan smiled. "Therefore, in addition to the Soul Refining Technique, I would also like to learn the subsequent content of the Treasure Refining Technique from you, so as to master the method of refining the most powerful treasures as soon as possible."
"The most powerful and precious treasure."
The mountain dweller shook his head repeatedly, "You're really brave. Aren't you worried at all that your willpower won't hold up?"
"Teacher, please rest assured, I know what I'm doing."
With the mental state of forgetting oneself and the tempering of the primordial spirit sword intent, how could his will collapse so easily?
Not to mention that in two more years, once the meditation method is optimized, his ability to withstand pressure will be even stronger, and his will will change at an even faster pace.
That's why the Star Tower's trials are no longer a threat to him, which is why Chen Yuan wants to use these few hundred years to improve himself with all his might.
However, he couldn't tell these things to his teacher, because the news about the Mind Cultivation Method was no longer even under the control of the original cosmic will, but was directly restricted by the highest rules.
"You silly child, sigh."
The mountain dweller sighed helplessly. He couldn't understand why his disciple seemed to have an impatient mindset, wanting to seize every spare moment to cultivate.
Even though they have already achieved immortality with an eternal lifespan and their strength has even reached the pinnacle of the universe, they still haven't relaxed at all and are unwilling to wait even a few hundred years.
The mountain dweller couldn't understand it. This disciple seemed quite patient when they were in the Beast God Realm, so why did he become so impatient as soon as they returned to the Primal Universe?
What he didn't know was that it was precisely because he had returned to the original universe that Chen Yuan seized the time to improve himself.
After all, the longer time goes on, the faster his future junior brother Luo Feng will grow. He doesn't want to be caught up by Luo Feng one day because of laziness, otherwise what's the point of his time travel?
He shook his head. Although he felt it was inappropriate, the Mountain Hermit had already fulfilled his duty to remind him, and now he could only choose to trust his disciple.
So he said, "Alright, since you want to learn, then listen carefully."
"I will first explain the forging techniques of the Calamity Armor and the Primal Soul to you, and then I will explain the difference between the Peak Treasure and the Supreme Treasure, as well as the related refining techniques."
Chen Yuan nodded, then listened attentively to the story told by the man sitting on the mountain.
It must be said that the Mountain Guest was right; the techniques of the Calamity Armor and the Primal Soul are indeed complex, making them among the most difficult ultimate treasures.
Although Chen Yuan's treasure-refining skills were sufficient to refine top-tier treasures, according to the system's calculations, the treasures he refined only reached the ninth rank and seventh level.
However, the two supreme treasures, the Calamity Armor and the Primordial Soul, are the pinnacle of supreme treasures, equivalent to the ninth rank and ninth level. With Chen Yuan's current level of treasure refining, he is still far from being able to refine these two treasures. After all, it took Chen Yuan a full 1.2 million years to reach the current level of treasure refining. And it is obviously not so simple to improve from the seventh level of the ninth rank to the ninth level.
In fact, the Mountain Hermit's expectation of Chen Yuan's improvement in refining treasures was an assessment that took into account various time acceleration methods.
In his eyes, if his disciple could learn to refine these two treasures within 100,000 years, then he would have truly reached the top level in refining supreme treasures, and would be able to refine any supreme treasure with ease in the future.
Only this level of treasure-refining skill is considered to have reached the level of a master in the eyes of the Mountain-Sitting Guest.
As for refining the most powerful treasures? That's a whole new level. If Chen Yuan can break through to that level within three million years, he'll be considered exceptionally talented.
However, Chen Yuan wanted to learn the techniques of the Calamity Armor and the Primal Soul, but he was not preparing to refine them independently; he was well aware of this.
Although he himself could not refine it, he could collect relevant information for the system, providing relevant knowledge reserves for the subsequent optimization of the Heavenly Light and the Primordial Soul, so as to optimize the amplification of the power of the Calamity and the Primordial Soul.
Therefore, Chen Yuan is currently only focusing his energy on writing down everything the hermit said, intending to understand it later.
As for actually refining it? His clone is still cultivating the Primordial Eye in the Primordial Palace, and has no time to refine treasures.
What Chen Yuan didn't expect was that it took the Mountain Hermit a whole year to finally explain the relevant techniques of the Robber Armor.
Keep in mind that he simply recited the relevant content quickly without pausing, yet it took him so long; one can only imagine how complex the content must have been.
Even with Chen Yuan's memory, he could only barely recall these details; as for understanding the meaning of each step? Sorry.
I don't understand a single thing.
But it's okay if he doesn't understand; as long as the system collects all the data, that's fine.
With Chen Yuan adding the power of the Calamity Armor to the optimization of the Heavenly Light, this supreme battle armor is finally about to enter the ranks of the strongest.
[Simulation Task 1: Heavenly Mantle, estimated end time 44 days.]
The optimization timeline clearly shows that the Heavenly Mantle Armor, which has been enhanced with the power of the Calamity Armor, is of significantly higher quality than the other supreme treasures.
Even among the same level, the quality of the Heavenly Mango is the best among level one.
In comparison, the two supreme treasures he optimized in advance, the Shiyuan Palace and the Qingxiao Sword, were slightly inferior in grade.
[Qingxiao: Sword-type attack treasure, Tier 10, Level 1 (Common Supreme Treasure)]
[Attack: Possesses the ability to tear through space and time, and greatly enhances the effect of annihilation divine power]
[Ten Methods: Relying on the laws to drive the treasure, the more laws one has mastered, the greater the power of the treasure, with a maximum temporary increase of two levels of power (maximum level 3 of the tenth tier)]
The Azure Sky Sword still adheres to a pure attack direction. It is worth mentioning its "Ten Techniques" characteristic, which is a combination effect formed by Chen Yuan combining various secret patterns.
Based on his understanding of the laws, he can now increase the power by at least one and a half levels. In other words, Qingxiao can be used at least to reach the level of the third level of the tenth rank.
Without this combination of secret runes, the Azure Sky Sword would be nothing more than an ordinary, powerful offensive treasure.
In comparison, the attributes of the Shiyuan Palace are better than those of the Qingxiao Palace.
[Primordial Palace: A flying palace-type supreme treasure, tier 10 (common supreme treasure)]
[Speed: Up to 3300 times the speed of light]
[Defense: Immune to attacks from eighth-tier true god matter, and weakens soul attacks to one ten-thousandth of their original value]
[Space: Contains a world with a diameter of nine light-years]
[Time: Up to 5000 times the time flow rate, and can maintain 1200 times time acceleration under no-load conditions]
[Variation: It can be expanded to a size of up to 9 light-years, and can be reduced to the atomic level.]
[Suppressing Seal: Possesses sealing abilities, capable of sealing even an eighth-tier True God]
According to the division of the cosmic sea, the strength of the cosmic lords is divided into six levels, among which the strongest cosmic lord is at the sixth level, which is equivalent to a true god whose strength limit is restricted by the original universe.
However, in reality, true gods who roam the cosmic sea, because their strength is not restricted, are at least at the seventh rank and capped at the ninth rank.
In other words, under normal circumstances, a level 10 supreme palace can generally only withstand attacks from a level 7 true god, and to withstand attacks from a level 8 true god, one would need at least a level 30 tenth-rank palace.
Unfortunately, the foundation of the Shiyuan Palace was too good, so although its grade had just reached the level of the strongest treasure, its performance was above average among the strongest palaces.
Once he optimizes the Primordial Palace to the tenth level, the third grade, its defense and sealing capabilities will reach the level of a ninth-level True God, which is considered top-tier among the most powerful treasures!
Of course, this is on the premise that subsequent optimizations do not lose potential, which means that each optimization requires collecting enough data.
But Chen Yuan believed that with the Star Tower in place, there was no need to worry about the subsequent optimization of the Origin Palace.
"As long as my Primordial Eye can enter the next level."
Chen Yuan thought to himself, "Once I enter the second level of the Primordial Eye, I will have the ability to analyze the essence of the tenth order, and it can be combined with the system's analysis function. At that time, I will definitely be able to analyze the relevant information of the Star Tower."
"Oh right, there's also data on analyzing the Nameless Sword Embryo, to prepare for Qingxiao's subsequent optimization."
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the panel.
【Eye of the Primordial Era: Level 1 (23%)】
During the year that Zuo Shan Ke explained the Tribulation Armor to him, minus the more than one month of optimization consumption in the Shi Yuan Hall, he had actually been in the Shi Yuan Hall for more than a thousand years.
Over the past millennium, he has analyzed all the ordinary secret treasures and about 30% of the top-tier treasure materials through the Eye of Primordial Beginning, advancing his mastery of secret techniques to 23%.
Chen Yuan discovered that the early stage of the Primordial Beginning Eye was quite easy to improve. According to his estimate, once he had analyzed all the current treasure materials, he should be able to barely max out the proficiency of the first level of secret techniques.
However, the analysis speed is estimated to be relatively slow, because with his current level, he is already struggling to analyze even peak-level treasure materials. When he finally analyzes the strongest treasure materials, the speed will only be slower. Even with the time acceleration from the Primordial Palace, it would probably still take several decades in the primordial universe at the normal 1200x acceleration, unless he chooses to operate at overload and can increase the acceleration to the maximum of 5000x.
However, that would consume too much energy. Currently, under normal acceleration, the Primordial Palace relies on the Endless Nether Sea for energy, and the energy consumption of acceleration is negligible for the Nether Sea.
However, if overload acceleration is chosen, with the supply of primordial energy drawn from the divine body, the acceleration can be increased to a maximum of 3000 times. This can balance the consumption and recovery speed, but the cost is that the expansion of the divine body in the Nether Sea will be stagnant.
If the ultimate acceleration is activated directly, the Primordial Palace will consume the divine power in the Nether Sea at an extremely exaggerated rate, and it is estimated that the entire Nether Sea will be consumed within a thousand years.
Therefore, for Chen Yuan, theoretically, activating the 3000x acceleration is the most cost-effective, but the expansion of the Nether Sea is also very important to him, so he will only maintain the normal 1200x acceleration for a short period of time.
He will only choose to permanently reside in the 3000x time acceleration when the Endless Dark Sea expands to its limit and the primordial energy absorbed by his primordial spirit body can be used to supply the Origin Palace.
"Forget it, it's only a few decades. Expanding the Dark Sea is more important."
Chen Yuan shook his head. Even if he sacrificed the Nether Sea to activate 3000 times acceleration, he could only shorten the time to one or two decades.
Anyway, he still has several hundred years to fight against the Star Tower, which is plenty of time. There's no need to sacrifice the expansion speed of the Nether Sea clone just to save a little time.
So Chen Yuan continued to cultivate the Primordial Eye while maintaining the 1200x acceleration. Meanwhile, his true self, far away in the Star Tower, began to listen to the Mountain Guest explain the relevant techniques of the Primordial Soul.
Time flies, and three months later, his Heavenly Mantle Battle Armor was finally optimized and brought him the power of the Calamity Armor he had longed for!
[Celestial Radiance: A defensive treasure, Tier 10, Level 1 (Common Supreme Treasure)]
[Power of the Armor of Calamity: Can increase base strength by 100 times, with a maximum of 100 trillion times the power of a Realm Lord]
[Formless: Possesses the ability to simulate aura and alter physical appearance]
[Defense: Immune to attacks from a third-tier universe master, and reduces material attacks to one ten-thousandth (up to the seventh-tier true god level). This defensive power is synchronized with the soul.]
After system optimization, the Heavenly Armor, while retaining the same upper limit of power from the Armor of Calamity, has inherited the excellent tradition of simply and directly increasing basic power by a hundredfold!
It's important to know that even the Armor of Calamity is divided into three forms. Apart from the Drive form, which requires power, the increase in strength after activation is actually not very high.
The first and second forms of the Armor of Calamity only increase one's own strength tenfold, and can only be activated after the basic strength reaches a certain level.
As for the third form, it requires a base strength of 100 trillion times to achieve a 100 trillion-fold increase, which is only a doubling!
However, Tianmang is different. Due to the special nature of soul binding, Chen Yuan can unleash the full power of Tianmang, meaning he doesn't need to distinguish its form.
Furthermore, the power of this armor has been optimized, making the increase in strength smoother. No matter how much Chen Yuan's base strength is, it will increase by a hundredfold, up to the upper limit of 100 trillion times.
"This is incredibly powerful. I didn't expect that the optimized Armor of Calamity would still maintain a hundredfold increase in power. This is even stronger than the Armor of Calamity's original effect."
Chen Yuan secretly estimated: "My current basic strength is 10 billion times that of a World Lord. With the amplification from the power of the Calamity Armor, it will reach 1000 billion times that of a World Lord."
"If we add a hundredfold increase in amplitude, that's 10 trillion times."
Of course, the power of a 1000 billion-fold world lord has actually reached the level of a universe lord. At that level, a hundred-fold amplitude secret technique is basically standard equipment, and Chen Yuan no longer has an advantage.
"In other words, my basic strength after donning the Heavenly Mantle is exactly equivalent to that of a Universe Lord at the genetic level, a hundred times stronger."
"If we don't count the bonus from the supreme treasure, my strength, relying on my two strongest secret techniques, should be equivalent to that of a third-tier universe master."
Chen Yuan silently estimated: "Wearing the supreme treasure, my strength can reach the fourth level—the reason it's not the fifth level is because the level of the secret technique is not high enough. Once I master the strongest fusion secret technique, I should be able to rival the fifth-level universe master, which is the level of Dark Teacher and Chaos Master Uncle."
