Chapter 3429: Refining Materials

Ye Liuyun's sword intent has reached this point and still seeks further refinement; it must merge with the great trend of Heaven and Earth, complementing the domineering sword intent. He also learned through the Royal Mansion's cultivation method that his previous insight was indeed correct.

Knowing he was on the right path, Ye Liuyun felt more at ease. Afterwards, he began busily modifying the barriers of his Space World.

His previous Space World barriers were of the strength of the ninth layer of the Divine Realm, but now they must be rebuilt with the strength of the third layer of the Taixu World. Otherwise his Space World might not withstand his combat training within it. If his power later increases, a single slash could split the Space World apart.

Thus during this period Ye Liuyun was occupied every day, with no moment to rest. Fortunately his Divine Soul Power is now strong, allowing him to multitask. He can simulate and improve cultivation methods while training, without delay.

Because he experiences a tenfold time acceleration, while a month passes outside, over three hundred days pass for him inside, leaving ample time. M..

It wasn't until Chen Yueying couldn't help but call him that he emerged to get some fresh air.

"You really can sit still; a whole month of cultivation!" Chen Yueying actually looks forward each day to Ye Liuyun coming out to chat a few words with her.

Even the maids around her could see that the princess was waiting for Ye Liuyun. After a month, Ye Liuyun never emerged at all.

"It's not that I don't want to; the cultivation method has too many aspects to improve, I'm swamped!" Ye Liuyun explained to her.

"Cultivation also requires a balance of tension and relaxation. I happen to want to go out; you should also rest and accompany me for a stroll!" Chen Yueying used Ye Liuyun as a pretext to go out, hoping to spend more time with him.

"Fine!"

Ye Liuyun agreed.

He has essentially finished improving those cultivation methods and has overhauled the Space World, so he can finally take a short break.

Seeing Ye Liuyun agree so readily made Chen Yueying very happy.

She also told Ye Liuyun: "I've already had someone collect all your Moon Tribute! You're rich now, and you've secretly learned so many cultivation methods—shall you treat me to a meal to show your gratitude?"

As she said, she handed Ye Liuyun a Storage Ring.

Ye Liuyun scanned with his Divine Sense and found a Taixu Divine Crystal inside, worth hundreds of times his Moon Tribute in the barracks, instantly realizing Chen Yueying was specially looking after him.

"Haha, no problem. My treat—order whatever you like!" Ye Liuyun cheerfully agreed.

He also pondered how to thank Chen Yueying, thinking of forging a Storage Ring for her. Since his own storage space needed re‑refining, he could buy extra materials and include a copy for her.

After all, Chen Yueying lacks nothing; a practical little gift would suffice to convey his sentiment.

"Consider yourself conscientious! But you should change clothes; the guard uniform is too conspicuous. You're my personal guard; you don't need to wear the guard attire every day."

Chen Yueying was worried that Ye Liuyun's guard attire would make it inconvenient for the two of them to stroll together.

"Alright!" Ye Liuyun also found it indeed inconvenient, immediately changed his clothes, and left the Royal Mansion with Chen Yueying.

"Where shall we go first?" Chen Yueying asked Ye Liuyun.

"How about the Trade Association first? I want to buy some necessities," Ye Liuyun consulted Chen Yueying.

"Fine! It's still early for a meal, so let's shop first!" Chen Yueying gladly agreed. As long as she's with Ye Liuyun, any place is fine.

The two entered the Trade Association laughing and chatting, and Ye Liuyun went to look for materials to forge a Storage Ring.

Seeing him purchase refining materials, Chen Yueying couldn't help but ask, "Why are you buying these? Do you also refine artifacts?"

"I don't know how to refine artifacts; I just think the Storage Ring's space is too small and want to enlarge it simply. I'll also give you one as thanks!" Ye Liuyun explained.

"Huh? One for me too?" Chen Yueying hadn't expected a gift, her face flushed slightly, and she immediately asked the Trade Association's Administrator to bring the best refining materials.

"No need for high‑end materials; it's just a Storage Ring!" Ye Liuyun hurriedly objected.

"How can that be? This is being made for me; you may not mind, but I do! At worst I can pay—since we only need to refine it once, why not use the best!"

Chen Yueying knew Ye Liuyun couldn't afford the premium materials, so she intended to purchase them for him.

"Fine, you have money, be reckless!" Ye Liuyun stopped objecting, thinking a Storage Ring doesn't need extravagant materials. But since Chen Yueying insisted on the best, he didn't mind; after all, she isn't short of funds.

The Administrator, who knew Chen Yueying, heard her request for the best and immediately sent someone to fetch a particularly special metal.

The metal looked unmistakably unique—stone‑like veins yet metallic properties. Ye Liuyun couldn't even identify what it was.

"This is the Heaven‑Repair Stone!" the Administrator introduced, "Although called a stone, it's neither stone nor metal; no one has yet classified it definitively.

Yet its toughness exceeds that of metal, ensuring forged items are indestructible, can dampen vibration attacks, and never deform. It's the finest refining material in our Taixu World.

However, it demands extremely high flame temperatures for refinement and requires continuous alchemy of both yin and yang flames. Hence many artisans avoid using it.

Consequently, despite being the best, its price isn't very high..." the Administrator energetically pitched it to Ye Liuyun.

"I've heard of this Heaven‑Repair Stone; indeed it's the finest material. The quantity is limited, yet the price is cheap—truly a bargain.

But it's extremely hard to refine; ordinary Artifact Refining Masters wouldn't choose it. Shall we pick another?" Chen Yueying suggested at this point.

She knew Ye Liuyun possessed the Golden Crow Holy Fire, but was unaware he also wielded the Nether Ghost Fire, another immensely powerful fire spirit.

"No problem! How much of this material do you have here?" Ye Liuyun immediately assessed the availability.

He's not only forging a Storage Ring; his Demon Slaying Sword, War God Armor, and others' weapons can also be upgraded using this Heaven‑Repair Stone.

"We have two more large chunks! If the young master buys them together, we can give you an extra discount," the Administrator exclaimed.

He said so and immediately ordered two larger pieces of Heaven‑Repair Stone to be brought over.

The Heaven‑Repair Stone had sat there for over a year with no interest; finally they've found a major buyer, and even if it's not profitable, he wants to sell it.
