Leader Xuefeng nodded: "These are all acceptable. What kind of Postnatal Spiritual Treasures can be forged?"
"That depends on what type you need. I recommend domain-sealing type Postnatal Spiritual Treasures. Of course, you could also choose a sword or shield - it's entirely up to your needs. However, offensive treasures require the least materials, defensive ones slightly more, while domain-sealing types consume enormous amounts of materials, possibly over ten times that of offensive types," Su Yuan replied.
Leader Xuefeng gritted his teeth: "I need domain-sealing Postnatal Spiritual Treasures, preferably perfectly compatible with my Ten Thousand Miles Frozen Divine Ability!"
Su Yuan smiled calmly: "No problem. But you'll need to provide the materials yourself. For such treasures, more materials are always better. With high-quality materials, a 24-layer Law Restriction treasure might achieve effects comparable to 25 layers!"
Leader Xuefeng nodded and handed Su Yuan a storage ring. "These are my lifelong accumulated materials. I entrust them all to you, Fellow Daoist. Please do your best in forging."
Su Yuan instinctively sent his divine sense into the ring. The next moment, he saw a mountain of materials the size of a star - comparable to his previous life's sun!
Su Yuan gasped inwardly - he hadn't expected such an enormous quantity!
Su Yuan said in surprise: "Fellow Daoist Xuefeng, I didn't expect you to trust me so much! This is an extraordinary amount of materials!"
Leader Xuefeng replied: "To be honest, I've investigated you. While I couldn't trace your past, I discovered your remarkable abilities - freely teleporting between worlds with methods comparable to Great Luo, selling so many Postnatal Spiritual Treasures at low prices. You're undoubtedly a true master who wouldn't covet my meager materials. I believe I'm not qualified to taint your Dao Heart."
Su Yuan chuckled awkwardly: "You overestimate me! But since you trust me so, I'll take this commission! Let's sign a contract."
Leader Xuefeng's heart shook as he laughed loudly: "Master is indeed straightforward!"
The two signed a forging contract.
Su Yuan saw Leader Xuefeng out of the Seven Stars Pagoda.
Turning back, he began inventorying the materials Xuefeng had given him.
The total value of materials in the storage ring reached a staggering 30,000 six-star coins, astonishing Su Yuan. This Xuefeng had deep background indeed!
With a wave of his hand, Su Yuan transferred all materials into the Myriad Treasures Heaven-Earth Cauldron.
He then instructed Su Qian: "Quickly refine them all!"
Su Qian stared dumbfounded: "M-master, what did you say? Aren't these materials for the forging order you just accepted? You're going to refine them all now?"
Su Yuan waved dismissively: "That's tens of thousands of years away. No hurry. Without time acceleration, I'm not even a hundred years old yet. Why worry about matters tens of thousands of years later? Let's refine these resources first!" This content belongs to NoveIꜰire.net
Su Qian gasped sharply. He thought he was unscrupulous, but Su Yuan surpassed him!
This was using others' resources to strengthen himself first, then figuring out how to fill the gap later. In simpler terms - embezzlement.
Extremely impressed, Su Qian began rapidly refining the treasures from the storage ring.
The main material was Billion-Year Profound Ice Iron. After initial refinement, this material alone already rivaled Golden Immortal artifacts in power - truly nourishing to refine.
After some time, Song Cai came to report on Golden Immortal orders.
Over three hundred Golden Immortals had placed orders for low-grade Postnatal Spiritual Treasures and pills.
Su Yuan accepted them all, gaining even more materials.
These materials he intended to properly forge.
Having Song Cai stop accepting orders, Su Yuan returned to the Nine Suns Spirit Devouring Array, summoning the Myriad Treasures Heaven-Earth Cauldron for forging and alchemy.
Meanwhile, in the Xuefeng Legion:
Numerous artifacts, low-grade and mid-grade Postnatal Spiritual Treasures were distributed. Many Golden Immortal squad leaders and company commanders obtained temporary use of treasures, while the five Taiyi Golden Immortal deputy leaders also received mid-grade Postnatal Spiritual Treasures.
Chang Lin was surprised - before he could use kickbacks to obtain a mid-grade treasure, Leader Xuefeng had already distributed one to him!
Leader Xuefeng ordered everyone to quickly refine their treasures - their military mission was imminent!
Just three years later, Leader Xuefeng received orders from the Immortal Alliance headquarters:
[Order 789th Legion to intercept Demon World 618th Legion's reinforcement at White Leaf Stone Domain. Must delay for at least a millennium!]
Upon receiving the orders, Leader Xuefeng's expression darkened.
Generally, the smaller a legion's number, the stronger it was. Demon World 618th Legion far surpassed the 789th. Being ordered to intercept them for a millennium was practically a death sentence!
Leader Xuefeng snorted coldly and commanded: "All forces, march!"
The Void Roc's star-sized body flapped its wings, stirring spatial turbulence across millions of miles.
In the next instant, the colossal bird traversed hundreds of millions of miles!
After pausing briefly, the Void Roc flapped again, crossing another vast distance.
On its back, billions of cultivators meditated, preparing for war.
A Heavenly Immortal soldier curiously eyed his squad leader's massive blade, whispering to a comrade: "Old Li, do you know what grade the captain's weapon is? For three years I haven't seen him put it down!"
Old Li replied quietly: "That's a Xuan Immortal artifact!"
The soldier gasped: "But the captain's only a True Immortal! How can he wield a Xuan Immortal blade? Does he have powerful connections?"
Old Li said: "No, you're uninformed. Recently many squad and company leaders got weapon upgrades. Higher-ups received new weapons, so old ones trickled down. I heard company commanders at Xuan Immortal realm are using Golden Immortal artifacts now!"
"Really? Where did these weapons come from?"
"Look closely - some have seven-star markings. They're from some mysterious black market!" Old Li said mysteriously.
The soldier began secretly observing. Sure enough, some leaders' weapons bore seven-star symbols.
The 789th Legion had indeed undergone significant upgrades. Mid-high ranks received new weapons, whose old weapons then upgraded mid-low ranks, creating a ripple effect that substantially boosted the legion's overall strength.
The Seven Stars Black Market's name began circulating among troops. Though without seeing the weapons' performance yet, soldiers remained largely unmoved - a seed planted, awaiting germination.
After a month's nonstop travel, the 789th Legion finally reached White Leaf Stone Domain.
In the spatial turbulence appeared a vast white expanse - upon closer inspection, layers of special leaf-like stones piled together.
White Leaf Stone was incredibly durable, resisting spatial erosion, yet too hard for engraving Dao patterns, making it unsuitable for treasure forging, only construction.
The Void Roc was enormous, but the White Leaf Stone region was vaster still. The roc landing resembled a bird perching on a giant tree.
Before the roc could rest, a massive ship tore through spatial turbulence.
On its hull clearly read: Demon 618th Legion!
Leader Xuefeng laughed angrily - perfect timing?
The demon ship also spotted Xuefeng's 789th Legion on the white stones.
"Well well, it really is you, Xuefeng you fool!" A demonic cultivator appeared at the ship's bow, laughing wildly. "You became leader of Immortal 789th? Hahaha! Think you can stop me?"
Leader Xuefeng frowned: "Scarlet Spirit Demon Lord, an 'old acquaintance' from thirty thousand eras ago. Surprised you're not dead yet."
"Heh, how could I leave before you?" Scarlet Spirit Demon Lord guffawed.
As the two late-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal leaders bantered, their legions prepared for battle.
Countless cultivators poured forth from both ship and roc, like swarms from hive or anthill.
"Shall we catch up in the spatial turbulence?" Scarlet Spirit Demon Lord smirked coldly.
"Exactly my wish!"
The two leaders transformed into streaks of light, vanishing into turbulent space.
Soon, violent combat fluctuations erupted in the distance.
Deputy leaders assumed command, deploying troops across a battlefield spanning billions of miles.
Killing intent instantly permeated the air as formations took shape.
Chang Lin watched the opposing Taiyi Golden Immortals solemnly.
Both sides' Taiyi experts rose, maintaining aerial standoff - monitoring their leaders' distant battle while directing lower-ranked troops below.
Golden Immortals formed combat cores or operated solo in mid-air combat zones, while lower ranks engaged in countless peripheral skirmishes.
Chang Lin commanded: "Attack!"
Instantly, Golden Immortal level and below combat erupted.
From above, the two semicircular armies collided, forming a taiji-like pattern across White Leaf Stone Domain.
Countless soldiers clashed fiercely at the boundary!
