Maximum Comprehension: Taking Care of Swords In A Sword Pavilion

All four golden-armored battle puppets were visibly excited as they slowly bowed, one knee touching the ground.

“With the return of our master, our existence is justified,”

proclaimed the golden-armored battle puppet leading the way with a three-foot-long sword.

Xu Ziyang nodded and looked around, his eyes revealing a deep spiritual light.

“Rest assured, now that I have returned from rebirth, Ziyang City no longer needs to hide in this Land of Illusion.”

A surging flame rose from his body, setting the sky around him ablaze with a fiery red.

The entire Between heaven and earth began to tremble.

In the distance, ninety-nine Golden Crows spread their wings, slowly pulling the vast expanse of Ziyang City forward.

Chains collided, weaving a purple flowing light.

“Master Han, please”

Xu Ziyang turned his head to look at Han Muye and extended his hand.

Han Muye nodded and took a step forward.

The City Lord’s Hall of Ziyang City had grown a bit decrepit after countless years of sealing,

but as a flame swept through, the entire city was revitalized. Numerous flames ignited, lighting up the entire city.

In the hall, Xu Ziyang and Han Muye walked towards each other, with Great Venerable Muyue and others like Primordial standing by.

Xu Ziyang was an ancient almighty who became famous even earlier than Great Venerable Muyue; her curiosity was piqued upon seeing him.

Both Xu Ziyang and the city’s combat puppets like Ling Yao were somewhat unfamiliar with the current changes in the Galaxy Universe.

Han Muye and Lu Zixu thus recounted all the information they had.

The decline of Artifact Refining, the inability to control Puppet Fighters, and the cultivation world no longer witnessing the dominance that spanned countless worlds in the past.

And the fact that Universe-level weapons needed to be nurtured with the power of entire worlds, causing countless worlds to collapse.

“Has the cultivation world truly declined to such an extent, and Artifact Refining regressed so far?”

Xu Ziyang’s face showed a trace of melancholy as he spoke softly.

For a powerful being who had used Artifact Refining to change the course of this world, it was certainly distressing to witness the decline of ancient craftsmanship.

“As long as Senior Purple Sun is willing to make a move, it wouldn’t be difficult to revive the Artifact Refining of the Galaxy Universe,” Lu Zixu said excitedly, looking at Xu Ziyang and speaking in a low voice.

What would the return of such a powerful being to the world mean for the way of refining and the grand trend of the cultivation world?

Lu Zixu didn’t even dare to think about it.

He didn’t dare to invite the other party to the divine realm.

He knew he was not qualified.

Hearing Lu Zixu’s words, Xu Ziyang’s expression revealed an odd look as he turned his head to look at Han Muye.

“Master Han, what do you think?”

This was the person who once supported the whole world with his own strength. If he were willing to revive the way of refining and the Galaxy Universe, it might indeed be possible.

Han Muye pondered for a moment and said calmly, “The great trends of the world cycle endlessly. Some things are best made with full effort.”

If it weren’t for crossing through numerous universes and seeing the Quantum Tribulation, Han Muye might have been interested in trying to save the world.

But now, he no longer possessed the desire to revitalize the path of cultivation.

Even the inheritance from the Primordial Universe, in his view, was cultivated in order to survive the Quantum Tribulation.

Behind many things lay Formless great trends rolling forward, not stopped by mere will.

Who could say that the decline of Ziyang City wasn’t part of the grand scheme of destiny?

“I understand,” Xu Ziyang nodded, his face showing a tinge of emotion.

“I once entered the Primordial Universe and invoked the power of the Purple Sun Cauldron to recruit powerful members of the Golden Crow clan.”

“I thought it would prevent the destruction of their clan, but sadly, the Golden Crows of Primordial eventually disappeared in the river of time, leaving only a faint bloodline behind,”

Xu Ziyang said as a faint power of qi and blood floated around him, within which was the power of the Golden Crow.

According to him, when he went to Primordial, there was no strife between that universe and the Galaxy Universe.

Back then, the Primordial Universe was also incredibly powerful, with several top-notch Great Sun Golden Crows among the Golden Crow clan capable of battling the Overlords of Primordial.

And in that era, there were more than five Overlords.

“Hum”

The void trembled and buzzed.

A Vast Heaven Golden Crow, adorned in golden streaming light, swooped down.

He looked at Xu Ziyang in the hall, his eyes filled with complexity.

“When I return to Primordial, I wish to take these Golden Crows with me,”

the Vast Heaven Golden Crow declared directly.

If not allowed, he was prepared to take action.

Above the Vast Heaven Golden Crow, trails of flame light surged, as if the entire world were being scorched.

“Primordial,” Xu Ziyang nodded and said softly, “whenever you wish to go, these Golden Crows can all be taken there.”

“I will also take Ziyang City for a visit to Primordial.”

To visit Primordial.

Xu Ziyang had originally brought these Golden Crows from Primordial, and now he was preparing to return them.

Upon hearing Xu Ziyang’s response, the sky around them resounded with the cries of the Golden Crows.

The Vast Heaven Golden Crow bowed, “Thank you, senior.”

Even if he was actually the former refining disciple Xu Ao, now he was not Xu Ao.

He was the Artifact Refining power Xu Ziyang.

In front of him, the Vast Heaven Golden Crow had to be respectful.

Xu Ziyang turned his head to look at Han Muye, a smile on his face: “These individuals still lack sufficient harmony between their souls and their battle puppets. Fortunately, I can refine a few Myriad Fusion Pills.”

Myriad Fusion Pill.

A treasure that can help the soul fuse with the physical body and the Puppet Fighter’s body.

Master Xu Ziyang was willing to offer the Myriad Fusion Pill, naturally, out of respect for Han Muye.

The basic requirement to refine the Myriad Fusion Pill is the Golden Crow Divine Flame.

It also requires some alchemy materials that are related to the soul, all of which are extremely precious.

Ziyang City does not lack the Golden Crow Divine Flame, but having been hidden in the Land of Illusion for many years, its store of spiritual herbs has been depleted, if not already decayed.

However, these things are easy to handle.

Trading will do.

Ziyang City also houses a Temple of Ten Thousand Gods.

According to Master Xu Ziyang, the Temple of Ten Thousand Gods was actually a trading place for strong figures of the past, and it wasn’t considered to have many mysterious techniques.

But as the powers from all sides continued to contribute and with the decline of the cultivation world’s heritage, this Temple of Ten Thousand Gods has become a rare trading treasury in the world.

After being unused for countless thousands of years, when Master Xu Ziyang brought Han Muye to the Temple of Ten Thousand Gods, it was already a place of dilapidation and darkness, filled with the scent of decay.

Master Xu Ziyang walked to the front of a large array, slowly raising his hand.

Streaks of golden flames rose up.

Within the flames, endless Flowing Light turned into a light screen, which then coalesced into a phantom of a Golden Crow.

“Heh heh, in the days of old, the parties in the Temple of Ten Thousand Gods did not hide their identities,” Master Xu Ziyang said as he looked at the Golden Crow in front of him, his eyes shining with divine light.

In those ancient times, the powerful beings knew exactly who needed what treasure and who possessed which treasures, so hiding identities was pointless.

Moreover, those powerful beings from ancient times were so formidable that they feared nobody’s covetous eyes.

“Swoosh”

The Golden Crow’s cry resounded, shaking heaven and earth, and the phantom of the Golden Crow within the light screen dispersed into the surrounding environment.

One after another, the golden divine flames were ignited.

“Golden Crow… Purple Sun!”

“Ziyang City?”

“Is this, Elder Xu’s divine flame?”

“Brother Ziyang, is that you?”

Countless messages transmitted, instantly filling the light screen ahead.

A smile appeared on Master Xu Ziyang’s face as he raised his hand and tapped the light screen.

“It’s been a long time.”

“I, Xu Ao, have returned.”

Xu Ao.

There were very few in the world who knew the name Xu Ao.

But every single one of those who did was a true powerhouse of the world, survivors from ancient times.

There was a pause on the light screen, and then a few messages came through.

“Senior brother.”

“Master Xu.”

“Long time no see.”

Altogether, just over a dozen messages.

Master Xu Ziyang let out a light sigh as he gazed at these sparse messages.

“So few of them left… Those from the past who are still alive and dare to greet me are just this handful…”

Many of the strong figures from the past had schemes against him, Master Xu Ziyang, and of course they dared not greet him now.

The others had connections with him but there were not many who had survived.

Gazing at the light screen in front of him, Master Xu Ziyang no longer hesitated. He raised his hand, and points of Flowing Light fell down.

“Ziyang City wishes to purchase ten jin of Jade River Nether Divine Liquid.”

“Ziyang City willing to trade one hundred stalks of Primordial Star Fire.”

“Ziyang City wishes to purchase ninety-nine layers of the Boundless three flowers.”

Messages after messages were sent out.

In an instant, countless messages gathered once again.

“Master Xu, are you going to refine the Myriad Fusion Pill?”

“The Myriad Fusion Pill, it must be the Myriad Fusion Pill!”

“Master Xu, may I ask how one might acquire a Myriad Fusion Pill you have refined?”

Even through the light screen, the eagerness of countless strong figures was palpable.

The Myriad Fusion Pill was indeed something that numerous powerful beings needed.

Master Xu Ziyang chuckled softly as he closed the light screen in front of him.

He had plenty of experience in dealing with these people.

“They’ll come chasing after us to deliver the spiritual herbs.”

Indeed, in just a short while, the light screen flickered, and countless messages fluttered down.

“Brother Ziyang, here are thirty jin of Pure Divine Marrow, anonymity appreciated.”

“Elder Xu, the junior first presents a thousand Falling Divine Fruits as congratulations for your rebirth.”

“Senior brother, I will personally bring the Cloudy Trigold Herb.”
