Volume 16 – Marriage – Chapter 58 – Grandmist Spiritual Energy?

Edited by: Phillip and Robin

Once they entered the Wood Mansion’s storehouse, they immediately felt a fresh and clean aura. The Wood Mansion’s storehouse actually possessed a scene like that of a hidden utopia.

The azure sky. The clouds were softly floating like silk.

The river was slowly flowing. Not far away from the river was an exquisite pavilion building. Qin Yu and the rest stepped onto the soft meadows and walked toward this pavilion building.

“This is the storehouse. Many of the items are casually placed on the ground or between mountain rocks. However, I have stored all the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures within that pavilion building.” Jiang Lan pointed to the pavilion building and said with a smile.

Qin Yu’s gaze was cast toward the pavilion building.

At the same time, his Spatial Energy from the New Cosmos was spread out. It covered the pavilion building. Qin Yu came to discover everything within the pavilion building.

“There are indeed quite a few Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.” Qin Yu knew very well that in terms of the useless Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, he was simply unable to match up against Godkings who had existed since the birth of the Divine Realm.

There were over twenty Grandmist Spiritual Treasures casually placed in the pavilion building. The majority of them were third-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. There were also four second-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures.

However, these Grandmist Spiritual Treasures were all merely playthings that one would fiddle with or look at. In terms of attack power, these Grandmist Spiritual Treasures were likely inferior to even ordinary Heavenly Divine Artifacts.

Walking up the wooden steps, they entered the pavilion building.The inside of the pavilion building was elegant, yet simple and unadorned. On the wooden racks were some peculiar items.

“Of the eighteen items on the wooden racks, twelve of them are Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. Although these Grandmist Spiritual Treasures do not possess much use, they are pretty good to look at.” Jiang Lan said with a smile. He walked over to the edge of the main hall of the pavilion building and then ascended the stairs.

Everyone followed behind him and reached the second floor of the pavilion building.

On a wooden cabinet on the second floor was a row of items. Jiang Lan casually waved his hand and seven items started to float in the air. “Little Yu, these seven items, six of them are third-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures and one is a second-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. They’re yours now.”

“Wow, Uncle Lan, this thing is very beautiful.” Jiang Yan grabbed onto a jade-cyan colored little striped horse.

“This is a flying type Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. The striped horse can become bigger. As long as you sit on top of it, you’ll be able to fly at a rapid speed.” Jiang Lan said casually.

Flying type auxiliary Grandmist Spiritual Treasures were of no use to Godkings.

The scene of Jun Luoyu riding the horse with her sitting behind him and hugging him as they traveled through the world had floated into Jiang Yan’s head.

“Uncle Lan, can you give this to me?” Jiang Yan’s large eyes were popping as she looked to Jiang Lan.

Jiang Lan could only smile. Could he possibly reject her request?

After Qin Yu and them left the Wood Mansion’s storehouse, they gathered back in the main hall of the wood mansion to enjoy their meal. The four of them gathered together was truly joyous and harmonious. Watching Qin Yu, Jiang Li and Jiang Yan, the three youngsters, Jiang Lan was also filled with smiles.

“Qin Yu, when do you plan to melt down those Grandmist Spiritual Treasures?” In the middle of their meal, Jiang Lan asked.

Melt down?

Qin Yu smiled and said. “There’s no need to anxious about it. My space’s max time acceleration is over ten thousand times. No matter what, I would always possess enough time. How about this, I’ll enter my space in three days to start melting down those Grandmist Spiritual Treasures and also begin the artifact crafting.”

Jiang Yan immediately said. “Ah, I want to see you craft artifacts!”

Jiang Li did not say anything. She merely looked at Qin Yu while smiling. She didn’t want to trouble Qin Yu.

“Little Sister Yan’er, I might be spending a long time to craft this time around. That is because before crafting, I will have to adjust my state and try my best to reach the apex state before starting my crafting. Thus… I’m not sure about the exact amount of time it’ll take.” Qin Yu softly refused.

Jiang Yan puffed her mouth and humphed lowly.

“Eh?”

Jiang Lan was suddenly startled. Immediately, Qin Yu, Jiang Li and Jiang Yan all looked to Uncle Lan. The three of them were all confused as to why Uncle Lan was startled.

“Uncle Lan, what happened?” Qin Yu asked.

Jiang Lan said with a smile. “Earlier, when I heard of you mentioning crafting, I came to think of Zhou Xian. Thus, I spread out my Divine Awareness and covered the entire Divine Realm to see. Yet, I discovered… that the Thunder Punishment City has actually invited Duanmu Feng over.”

Godking level experts were capable of observing the entire Divine Realm with merely an intention.

“Duanmu Feng? Grandmaster Artifact Craftsman Duanmu Feng?” Jiang Yan muttered. “Doesn’t that Thunder Punishment City already possess a Grandmaster Artifact Craftsman Ou Yezi already? Why did they invite Duanmu Feng in addition to that?”

Jiang Lan lightly laughed. “I’m afraid that might be because the Thunder Punishment City is also incapable of presenting with a powerful enough second-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure and thus wanted to have the Grandmaster Artifact Craftsmen Duanmu Feng and Ou Yezi craft one for them.”

Generally, it required several thousand years for the other two grandmaster artifact craftsmen to craft an artifact.

Although the Utmost North Sage Emperor had only given them ten years, the Thunder Punishment City’s Godkings were also capable of creating a space. Furthermore, they also possessed some comprehension of the temporal laws and were capable of accelerating time by a thousand fold.

And at this moment, Qin Yu started to frown slightly.

He began to suspect in his heart. “Are they planning to have the two grandmaster artifact craftsmen join hands? No, that can’t be. Each grandmaster artifact craftsman possesses his own crafting technique; having two of them join hands would only adversely affect them.”

As he too was a grandmaster artifact craftsman, Qin Yu naturally knew about this very well.

“Could it be…” Qin Yu suddenly thought of a possibility in his heart. “If this was the case, then the Thunder Punishment City is truly overly rich and imposing.”

Jiang Lan smiled and said. “I think that to obtain victory, the Thunder Punishment City is planning to have the two grandmaster artifact craftsmen craft their own respective Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. At the same time, the Thunder Punishment City would provide with them enough materials and Grandmist Spiritual Energy. I reckon that they’ll take the better Grandmist Spiritual Treasure among those that the two grandmaster artifact craftsmen end up crafting.”

“Little Yu, it would appear that the Thunder Punishment City is determined to win.” Jiang Lan looked at Qin Yu with a smile on his face.

Qin Yu had a light smile on his face. “Crafting a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure is not something that is affected by having more people.” Qin Yu was extremely confident.

In terms of skill for crafting the Artifact Embryo, it was likely that only the Craftsman God Chehou Yuan’s Tempered Through Thousand Hammers could compare with Qin Yu’s Nine Revolutions Void Render.

In terms of the tempering agent, if his clone were to come and help, then once the Coldmist Domain was used, his control of the Coldmist Air was definitely going to be stronger than the others’.

How about the Spirit Awakening process?

Who could possibly match against him?

“Zhou Xian, sometimes it’s better to rely on yourself than to rely on others.” Qin Yu thought in his heart.

Several days later. In the Wood Mansion.

Jiang Lan, Jiang Li and Jiang Yan were all looking at Qin Yu. Qin Yu had decided to enter his New Cosmos today and begin the melting of the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures as well as his artifact crafting.

“Little Yu, do not pressure yourself too much.” Jiang Lan patted Qin Yu’s shoulder.

“I know, Uncle Lan.” Qin Yu slightly smiled.

Jiang Li walked over to Qin Yu. She knew that Qin Yu was going to work hard for the matter of the groom search again. Yet she… could only continue to quietly wait for him in the Wood Mansion.

Tiptoeing, Jiang Li closed her eyes and softly kissed Qin Yu. She then opened her eyes and looked at Qin Yu. With a soft voice, she said. “Big Brother Qin Yu, I’ll wait for you here.”

Qin Yu slightly smiled and then also looked at Jiang Li.

“Wow… there are even electric sparks flying through your eyes.” Jiang Yan was making a big fuss from the side. Qin Yu and Jiang Li immediately started laughing as they looked at Jiang Yan beside them.

New Cosmos. On the Purple Mystic Star.

Qin Yu had already ordered Uncle Fu that the Floating Cloud Mansion would not be receiving any visitors for this period of time.

“Melting down the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures requires the most time. Seven Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, I reckon it’ll take ten days to completely melt them down.” Qin Yu flipped his hand and took out a fist-sized wondrous stone.

It was a third-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure.

“I’ll melt this down first.” With a movement of his body, Qin Yu arrived on a mountain peak of the Easy Hazy Mountain. He sat on top of the boulder on the summit in a cross-legged position and then waved his hand.

The Grandmist Spiritual Treasure that he had taken out before started to float before him.

Melting down a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure was a relatively simple process. However, there were two conditions. Firstly, the Grandmist Spiritual Treasure that was being melted down must not have an owner. If it had an owner, then, as it was infused with Heavenly Divine Energy, it would not be able to be melted down.

Secondly, one must burn the ownerless Grandmist Spiritual Treasure for a very long time. Furthermore, the flame used must be the Void Flame.

Generally, one must burn for an entire day to break down a third-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure to obtain the Grandmist Spiritual Energy within it. As for second-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure, it required one to burn it for three to four days.

“Now that my strength has grew much stronger, and on top of that I possess this Refining Flame Wristband, it has already become extremely easy for me to use Void Flames.” Void Flames directly flew out from Qin Yu’s body.

The Void Flames covered that fist-sized wondrous stone.

Under the burning of the Void Flames, at the beginning, this wondrous stone seemed to have no reaction at all. As time passed, after about two hours, it started to slightly change.

Qin Yu continuously emitted Void Flames from his body. The change to this wondrous stone became greater and greater.

After half of an entire day, that wondrous stone finally made a ‘kacha’ sound and split into three parts. However, no Grandmist Spiritual Energy had come out from it yet.

“I reckon that Grandmist Spiritual Energy would only come out after the Grandmist Spiritual Treasure was burned and broken down completely.” Qin Yu had a slight smile on his face.

Qin Yu knew very well that the Grandmist Spiritual Energy was tightly bound to the Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. With such a deep connection, it required a very long time to burn out the Grandmist Spiritual Energy.

Time passed…

In a blink of an eye, an entire day had passed.

At this moment, that wondrous stone had already turned into countless specks. The specks were trembling unceasingly. Suddenly…

“Bang!” The various specks had all turned into ash. At the same time, a very small stream of energy flew out.

Grandmist Spiritual Energy!

“Grandmist Spiritual Energy, it’s the Grandmist Spiritual Energy!” Qin Yu’s eyes immediately became radiant. However, at this moment, he had also been completely stunned.

Soon after, another stream of energy escaped.

Qin Yu still had a very startled expression on his face.

“Grand, Grandmist Spiritual Energy. Grandmist Spiritual Energy is this?” Qin Yu felt that his mind was rumbling. He then grabbed with his hand. He locked a portion of the space and grabbed that speck of Grandmist Spiritual Energy completely.

Qin Yu instantly disappeared from the East Hazy Mountain.

The New Cosmos have at this moment grew to an extremely enormous state. The amount of cosmic spaces that it contained was also extremely numerous. Qin Yu immediately appeared on the edge of the New Cosmos.

Standing at the most edge of the New Cosmos. The space here was trembling. It was the most chaotic region.

“Stop.” Qin Yu shouted. His surroundings instantly became completely peaceful.

Qin Yu looked through the membrane and saw the countless flour paste space outside of the membrane. His gaze was extremely unusual. At every moment, a large amount of flour paste energy would escape through the membrane and enter Qin Yu’s New Cosmos. This caused the New Cosmos to continue to grow without stopping.

One could even say that in every single breath.

The New Cosmos would absorb as much ‘flour paste energy’ to cover an entire ocean.

In the past, in Qin Yu’s heart, the flour paste energy was only a type of energy. It was an ordinary energy that formed the cosmos. However, at this moment, Qin Yu could no longer think of it like so.

“Grandmist Spiritual Energy is the flour paste energy?”

Qin Yu looked to the drifting Grandmist Spiritual Energy that he held in his hand and then looked to the omnipresent and boundless flour paste energy that was being absorbed by the New Cosmos at a frantic speed.

They were exactly the same!

As Qin Yu was the master of the New Cosmos, he was naturally able to tell the essence of the flour paste energy as it entered into his New Cosmos. He was able able to clearly sense the essence of the Grandmist Spiritual Energy within his hand.

They were completely the same!

Qin Yu was stunned for a very long time.

“This is the Grandmist Spiritual Energy that the various Godkings of the Divine Realm regard as being extremely important? In order to craft a Grandmist Spiritual Treasure, they needed to melt down countless useless Grandmist Spiritual Treasures. There are how many Grandmist Spiritual Treasures in the Divine Realm. How many could they possibly have to melt down?” At this moment, Qin Yu was truly excited.

With an intention of his mind, he grabbed with his hand.

Qin Yu locked up a space with a circumference of a hundred miles. The flour paste energy within it was also locked up by Qin Yu.

“An area with a circumference of a hundred miles? Haha, even if all of the Divine Realm’s Grandmist Spiritual Treasures were to be melted down, the amount of Grandmist Spiritual Energy that they contained could not compare to even a single percent of what it contained in that.” Qin Yu’s entire body was slightly shivering.

“In the past, I had thought that the Grandmist Spiritual Energy was a miraculous energy formed by the cosmos. However now that it seems, it was merely the original type of energy that formed the cosmos. The most original energy. No wonder, no wonder it possessed such miraculous effect.” Qin Yu understood everything now.

He now understood why in the past, when he refined the Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, their refinement speed would increase just by having them absorb a bit of the flour past energy.

So it turned out, this was actually the thing most important to Grandmist Spiritual Treasures, the Grandmist Spiritual Energy.

“Calm down, calm down.”

Qin Yu forced himself to calm down. After all… he still had to craft an artifact. Such an excited state was very likely to negatively affect his craftsmanship.

However…

The boundless flour paste energy before him passed that membrane and was frantically rushing into his New Cosmos. He then looked to the boundless flour paste space on the other side of the membrane.

This was all Grandmist Spiritual Energy!

Having seen this, how could he possibly remain cool-headed?

Qin Yu took a deep breath. He then started to sit down in a cross-legged position. He closed his eyes and began to adjust his state of mind. Uncle Lan’s laborious efforts, Li’er’s feelings and intentions, Qin Yu remembered all of them clearly.

He touched his lips. Qin Yu still remember the feeling of the kiss that Li’er had gave him.

“With this much Grandmist Spiritual Energy, what is there for me to fear of when crafting artifacts?” A peaceful smile appeared on Qin Yu’s face. His mental state was slowly changing.

At the moment when his state reached its peak, that would be the moment when Qin Yu would begin his artifact crafting.

[TL: now that I think about it, he has a new cosmos. Can’t he just gather his rare materials there too?]
