Chapter 388 I'll make the whole universe work for me!
"Wait, these are all supreme treasures?!"
The giant axe-wielder was dumbfounded. When had he ever seen so many supreme treasures? It was as if they were free.
There are seven treasures in total, covering almost every category except for battle armor: flying palaces, souls, weapons, and domains.
Of course, there are actually battle armors, but Chen Yuan didn't list them because he considered that the Giant Axe already had a supreme treasure battle armor.
"You mean, I can choose any two of these supreme treasures?"
Giant Axe couldn't help but swallow hard, feeling a bit dizzy.
You have to understand, for countless eons before, he didn't have a single supreme treasure! It was only after Chen Yuan rose to power that he obtained two supreme treasures in a series of thousands of years.
And now, less than two thousand years have passed since he obtained the supreme treasure armor [Zhenwu], and Chen Yuan is going to give him two more supreme treasures?
Yes, although the giant axe also sacrificed a large amount of ancient civilization remnants, in his eyes, how could the value of these things compare to the supreme treasure?
"This is too much; I feel unworthy of it."
Although he was tempted, Giant Axe still shook his head and refused, mainly because he was no longer in dire need of such treasures as he once was.
"What I've provided are merely some worthless wreckage; in terms of true value, they're at most worth a single top-tier treasure."
"Chen Yuan, you don't need to take such good care of me."
"This isn't about favors," Chen Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile, "I'm not lying to you, the value of these remains is no less than that of hundreds of supreme treasures in my eyes. I've already gotten a great deal."
"Furthermore, I also want to spread the word about this transaction so that the clan and even the universe lords of the entire Hong Alliance know how valuable these remnants are."
"Hundreds of supreme treasures—" The giant axe gave Chen Yuan a deep look and immediately guessed his thoughts, "You want the entire alliance's universe lords to collect the remnants of ruins for you?"
"That's right."
Chen Yuan nodded. "What is worthless junk to you is a treasure of great value to me. I will buy these remains without limit and pay for them with all kinds of precious treasures."
"Whether it's a top-tier treasure or an extremely powerful treasure, as long as you provide enough fragments, you can buy it from me."
After listening to Chen Yuan's plan, Giant Axe fell silent for a long time before shaking his head and saying, "That's quite a grand scheme."
"etc."
He suddenly realized, "Since you have the confidence to take out the most powerful treasures to exchange for them, this is no small amount, plus these seven treasures in front of you—"
"Your treasure-refining skills have already broken through to a higher level!"
The giant axe spoke with absolute certainty: if he hadn't been able to refine them, where would Chen Yuan have gotten so many supreme treasures? It couldn't all have been refined by the Mountain-Sitting Guest, could it?
After all, Chen Yuan was merely a disciple of the Mountain Hermit, not his son.
Moreover, even if they were truly father and son, Zuo Shan Ke would never go to such lengths for him.
"Of course." There was no need to deny it now. Chen Yuan smiled. "In fact, that [True Martial] armor was my creation."
"No wonder—" the giant axe exclaimed in realization.
To be honest, he had a question before: of the two treasures Chen Yuan provided him, why was only the armor given a name, while the axe was nameless?
Now it seems that the supreme axe was likely casually crafted by the Mountain Hermit, which is why its grade was not high, but it perfectly matched his Dao.
However, the armor was crafted by Chen Yuan himself, and it may even be his first masterpiece, which is why he gave it a name.
As for Chen Yuan concealing his true level of treasure refining, Giant Axe didn't take it seriously. He knew very well that Chen Yuan was only at the Immortal stage at that time, so it was normal for him to hide his strength.
Now that the other party has become the master of the universe, and his strength is among the top in the universe, he is naturally not afraid of information being exposed and can act more boldly.
"So, Giant Axe, don't worry, go ahead and choose your treasure."
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "You understand, to me, any treasure that can be refined is not considered precious."
After a pause, he suggested, "As for which two treasures to choose, I recommend the domain-type and the soul-type."
"The former allows you to move freely when facing strong opponents, while the latter makes up for the shortcomings in your soul defense, improving your survivability in all aspects."
Chen Yuan's suggestion was absolutely sincere, after all, in the original work, the giant axe fell because it was destroyed by the soul of the World Beast.
If the giant axe had possessed the most powerful treasures for domain and soul defense at that time, with his strength, even if he were trapped in the dark place, he would not have perished and could have escaped unscathed.
"Alright." After pondering for a moment, the giant axe finally nodded.
However, he only took the Soul Treasure and did not touch the Domain Treasure.
Seeing Chen Yuan's questioning gaze, the giant axe explained, "Having this treasure to supplement my soul defense is enough; the domain treasure is merely icing on the cake for me."
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "More than that, I hope you can upgrade my divine axe."
Then, he took out the supreme treasure, the divine axe.
"I see—" Chen Yuan suddenly realized, and he wasn't surprised by the choice of the giant axe.
After all, this strongest human being attained enlightenment through axe techniques, so possessing a powerful divine axe was the most crucial element for the giant axe.
"No problem," Chen Yuan readily agreed. "I will reforge your divine axe and upgrade it to the level of a top-tier supreme treasure."
"Really? That's wonderful!" The giant axe's eyes lit up, then he added after a moment's thought, "By the way, the path contained within this divine axe suits me very well. I hope you won't change the direction of these runes when you reforge it."
"rest assured."
This request was no big deal for Chen Yuan. He then put away the divine axe with a thought.
After thinking for a moment, he then gave the domain treasure beside him to the giant axe.
"This—" The giant axe was taken aback.
"Take it." Chen Yuan smiled faintly. "Upgrading your divine axe is a bonus service I'm offering, not included in this transaction."
"Moreover, the news that the giant axe traded the remains of an ancient civilization for two supreme treasures is far more shocking than simply acquiring one."
"If you can help me promote this later, consider it payment for upgrading your Divine Axe."
to be frank.
This divine axe was optimized by Chen Yuan, who only used a small amount of ordinary treasure materials and a little energy.
The giant axe had used a lot of materials, but he saved almost all of them to improve himself.
Therefore, Chen Yuan felt indebted to the giant axe in this matter, but at the time, there was a real shortage of materials, so he could only take a temporary measure.
Although he is still lacking energy, a supreme treasure is nothing to him now. He takes this opportunity to make up for his previous mistakes, which is why he upgraded the giant axe to a divine axe for free.
Giant Axe hesitated for a moment, but seeing Chen Yuan's resolute expression, he ultimately accepted the two treasures, nodding and saying, "Don't worry, I will inform the clan's higher-ups—and the Hong Alliance—about this matter."
"That's good." Chen Yuan smiled. "Your divine axe will probably be fully upgraded in about ten years, so don't leave the Primal Universe during this time."
"No problem." Giant Axe nodded, then thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, since you want to acquire all kinds of wreckage, do you have a specific method?"
"For example, once someone has collected enough wreckage, where should they contact you? Is there a standard for acquiring this wreckage?"
Upon hearing this question, Chen Yuan pondered for a moment and felt that the problem raised by the giant axe did indeed need to be solved.
Since he intends to make the entire Hongmeng—no, the entire universe—work for him, he naturally needs to prepare an acquisition process.
He can't be like a garbage collector, having to go to every household that wants to sell wrecked remains; that would be too beneath him.
After a moment's thought, Chen Yuan said, "You're right, there should be a procedure for this matter."
"I will forge a supreme and treasure-level tower—named the Tower of Primordial Beginning. I will place it in a place where the territories of various races intersect, and arrange for an avatar to reside there permanently."
"The Tower of Primordial Beginning will be open to all races in the universe for acquisition, regardless of category, with quality starting from Immortal level and having no upper limit."
"Everyone can go to the Tower of Primordial Chaos to sell various items. I will arrange for the virtual universe to appraise their value and exchange them for a special currency."
"With this currency, anyone can buy anything from me, as long as the price is right, even the most powerful treasures!"
At this point, Chen Yuan looked at the giant axe: "What do you think of this method?"
"This method isn't problematic—" The giant axe frowned slightly, "However, are you prepared to open the Primordial Tower to the entire universe?"
"Leaving aside whether your clone can handle the workload, the key issue is that acting this way is tantamount to funding alien races!"
"Don't worry, I've made preparations for this." Chen Yuan smiled faintly, then said, "For guests of the Primordial Tower, I will differentiate them according to [Human Race], [Human Allies], and [Alien Race], and grant them different purchasing privileges."
"Taking humans as an example, as long as they have enough currency accumulated with me to buy a supreme treasure, they can purchase it directly."
"Human allies—that is, members of the Hong Alliance—must accumulate more than ten times the amount to qualify for the purchase of the most powerful treasures; of course, the price will also be ten times higher."
"As for the range from ordinary to top-tier treasures, allies can purchase them at the normal price."
"As for the other races," Chen Yuan smiled, "I will also grant them the qualification to purchase supreme treasures, but they will need to accumulate a hundred times the amount of money with me first, and the price for purchasing supreme treasures will also be a hundred times higher!"
"Those ordinary treasures, alien races also need to pay ten times the amount to exchange for them."
"This is my initial plan." Chen Yuan looked at the strongest human, "Giant Axe, what do you think?"
"The plan is indeed feasible, but—" Giant Axe shook his head slightly, "Even so, if the alien races are willing, they can still exchange for the most powerful treasures. After all, which race doesn't have a large amount of debris accumulated?"
"If these alien races do indeed obtain a supreme treasure, what countermeasures do you have?"
"Countermeasures? Absolutely not!" Chen Yuan smiled. "As long as I am strong enough, those alien races can't cause any trouble."
"Don't worry about the giant axe."
He said confidently, "Since I dare to make the entire universe work for me, I'm not afraid of them turning against me."
"If any alien race dares to use the supreme treasure they obtained from me to wreak havoc on the human race—" Chen Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, "you won't need to take action; I will deal with them myself."
Upon hearing this, Giant Axe gave Chen Yuan a deep look. He could sense the determination hidden in the other man's eyes, which sent chills down his spine.
Considering Chen Yuan's current strength, which indeed possesses the power to make the alien races regret their actions, he nodded slightly: "In that case, I have no objection."
"Then it's settled."
Chen Yuan suddenly smiled, the terrifying look in his eyes vanishing. "I'm going back to forge this supreme treasure now. Remember to come back for the axe in ten years."
"Understood." Giant Axe nodded, then asked, "When do you plan to begin your acquisition plan? And where do you intend to place the Primordial Tower?"
"It will also be ten years from now," Chen Yuan replied. "As for the location, let's go to the Seventh Battlefield in the Outer Domain. The place where the Star Tower used to be is now empty, so it's perfect for placing my tower."
"Ten years—." The giant axe fell silent. This meant that Chen Yuan didn't even need ten years to forge a supreme treasure, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to complete two forgings in the same amount of time.
In reality, Chen Yuan could forge an ultimate treasure in less than a year.
Because of the existence of the Primordial Hand, he can transform energy into any True God-level material, and the materials he generates are absolutely free of any impurities!
This means that the most difficult and time-consuming part of the treasure refining process can be skipped by Chen Yuan; he only needs to complete the subsequent brief tasks.
With the acceleration of the Primordial Palace by ten thousand times, he could complete a supreme treasure in less than a month.
After leaving the miniature universe of the giant axe, Chen Yuan did not rush to enter the cosmic sea to explore, since his debris acquisition plan could also generate a large amount of energy.
Since the work of analyzing and fusing the laws of the Abyss Whale clone could not be stopped, Chen Yuan had the Soul Devouring Domain Beast clone refine two supreme treasures in the Primordial Palace, and then he no longer cared about it.
At this moment, his attention was entirely focused on the Dark Sea clone.
The price to "resurrect a true god" is almost gone.
Within the vast and magnificent divine realm, Chen Yuan stood atop the temple, gazing down at the churning, endless dark sea below.
The reason why the Nether Sea has been churning is because he has been slowly paying the price since he revived Irelia's core.
"Even when I am immortal, the cost of resurrecting the true god will take 20 years to be fully consumed."
Chen Yuan said quietly, "Once I break through to the Universe Venerable realm, my divine body will be enhanced a hundredfold, and my divine power will expand more than a thousandfold."
"Therefore, these costs were immediately reduced to a little over a thousand years."
"Now, I am the master of the universe, and my divine body and divine power have surged once again."
"And these costs—." With a thought, Chen Yuan directly released all the remaining resurrection backlash.
boom!
The Nine Nether Sea churned violently, constantly churning up towering waves. Its power was so great that even the Lord of the Universe was visibly shaken.
However, as soon as Chen Yuan sent down his thoughts, the entire Nether Sea instantly calmed down, without the slightest ripple.
This means that he has now borne the full consequences of the backlash caused by "reproducing" the core of Irelia back then!
