In Qin Yu and Jiang Li’s serene and elegant courtyard manor. Qin Yu, Jiang Li, Chehou Yuan and Yi Feng sat down on the seats. On the side was only Uncle Fu standing by himself and waiting upon them.

As for Hou Fei and Qin Feng, they did not sit. After all, Hou Fei and Qin Feng did not have any interaction with Chehou Yuan. Thus, it was not good for them to be present.

“After I obtained the Bewitching God Temple in the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, I directly ascended to the Divine Realm. After that, I’d become the Utmost Eastern Region’s Mount Dazzling Gold’s Misty Mystic Palace’s Palace Master. Finally, I participated in the Floating Snow City’s public groom search. When recalling those things now, it all seems to have just occurred yesterday.” Qin Yu drank a cup of wine and said with a smile.

Beside him, Jiang Li also started to smile. She too began to remember Qin Yu’s life events.

“In merely twenty thousand years, you’ve managed to stand at the apex of the Divine Realm. This sort of accomplishment is something that no other person has managed to achieve since the birth of the Divine Realm.” Godking Yi Feng said with a smile on his face. “Chehou, that Bewitching God Temple you’ve left behind also added momentum to Qin Yu’s legend.”

The assistance that Chehou Yuan had given Qin Yu was indeed extremely great.

The knowledge of formation arrays was left to Qin Yu by him. In the end, it allowed Qin Yu to achieve enlightenment and create the Formation Array Universe. In terms of artifact crafting, Qin Yu ended up becoming the new Craftsman God. Furthermore, there were the treasures that Chehou Yuan had left for Qin Yu.

For example, the Divine Spear Waning Snow!

Of course, the reason why the Divine Spear Waning Snow was so powerful now was mainly because it had absorbed the Dark and Yellow Energy. Otherwise, the original Divine Spear Waning Snow merely possessed the might of a second-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. How could it possibly be able to reach its current strength of surpassing that of a first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure?

“The path of artifact craftsmanship requires one to have innate talent. Furthermore, it also requires the accumulation of time and experience. In merely twenty thousand years, even if you’ve trained in a region where time was accelerated ten thousand times, it was still extremely unbelievable.” Exclaimed Chehou Yuan in admiration.

Qin Yu said humbly. “In terms of artifact crafting, Junior is still very much inferior to Senior Chehou.”

“That’s not for certain.” Beside him, Yi Feng smiled and said. “You’ve also managed to craft first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. Furthermore, it’s more than a single one that you’ve crafted. As for Chehou, he only crafted a single one. Your artifact crafting ability might even be better than Chehou.”

Godking Yi Feng had a friendly relationship with Chehou Yuan in the past. Thus, he did not care much about the other when speaking.

“Yi Feng, truly, you…” Chehou Yuan shook his head while smiling.

“Had it been back when I first left the Divine Realm to the Immortal, Devil and Demon Realm, I would truly not dare to say that my artifact crafting ability was better than Qin Yu, yours. However, now…” Chehou Yuan stroked his cyan beard contentedly.

“Oh? What about now? Could it be that you’ve achieved a major improvement and managed to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure?” Godking Yi Feng said with a smile on his face.

Qin Yu’s heart was moved.

Back in the Bewitching God Temple, Qin Yu had already discovered from the contents that Chehou Yuan had left for him that Chehou Yuan was searching for the pinnacle of artifact crafting and would not give up unless he managed to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.

Qin Yu looked to Chehou Yuan who was smiling contentedly. He was startled in his heart: ‘This Chehou Yuan’s strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching the Godking level. Based on what Uncle Yi Feng had said, this Chehou Yuan’s aura and temperament had also taken a huge change. Could it be… that this Chehou Yuan has really managed to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure?”

The might of an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure was something that Qin Yu had experienced for himself.

A single sword strike from the Origin Sin Sword had caused Qin Yu suffering of all kinds.

“Chehou, that expression you’re displaying, could it be that you’ve truly managed to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure?” Godking Yi Feng looked to Chehou Yuan with amazement. Currently, Chehou Yuan was stroking his beard and smiling. He was displaying a very content appearance.

Qin Yu looked to Chehou Yuan and said. “I remember that Senior Chehou had said before that you were going to search for all kinds of materials to reach the pinnacle of artifact crafting and would not give up unless you’ve managed to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure. Senior Chehou had now returned to the Divine Realm, could it be that Senior has truly managed to successfully accomplished your goal?”

For Yi Feng and Qin Yu to say such things in succession, Jiang Li beside them also looked to Chehou Yaun with an amazed expression.

At this moment, Chehou Yuan laughed. His gaze was cast toward Qin Yu, Jiang Li and Yi Feng. He then said in a low voice, feigning a mysteriousness. “This old fool had exhausted all my soul. In the end, the Heavens truly did not turn its back on me. Haha,hahahaha…” Saying till this part, Chehou Yuan once again started to smile.

“You’ve truly managed to craft it?” Godking Yi Feng cried out in surprise.

Beside them, Qin Yu and Jiang Li glanced at each other. They were both filled with shock.

First-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures were already extremely hard to craft.

Even for Qin Yu, he also required for all sorts of conditions to reak the peak to be able to craft a first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. As for Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasures, although Qin Yu had an idea in his heart, he was unwilling to use up the Dark and Yellow Energy.

“I reckon that only through using the Dark and Yellow Energy could I be able to create an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.” This was what Qin Yu had thought.

Qin Yu knew that as he possessed Dark and Yellow Energy, he was able to increase the quality of the Spiritual Treasure that he crafted. However, what about Chehou Yuan? Chehou Yuan did not possess Dark and Yellow Energy. How would he be able to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure?

“Qin Yu, I believe that my crafting of an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure could be compared with the legends that you’ve created, right?” Chehou Yuan smiled mockingly to Qin Yu. “When I think of the dozen plus Godking servants in your Purple Mystic Mansion, my heart is still slightly quaking in fear.”

Chehou Yuan had personally admitted it. It would appear that Chehou Yuan had indeed managed to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.

Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.

A Godking managed to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure!

“Chehou, you really managed to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure? Huu, come, take it out and broaden my horizons with it. To be honest, I’ve never truly seen an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure before. Of course, that Back Earth Seal and All People Seal cannot be considered as one. Years ago, when the Thunder Punishment Exalted Celestial attacked Qin Yu, the movement of his Origin Sin Sword was too quick. I only managed to see the sword energy and did not even managed to see the shadows of the Origin Sin Sword. Pity, truly a pity.” Yi Feng was sighing.

Qin Yu and Jiang Li also looked to Chehou Yuan.

“Senior Chehou Yuan, allow us to see that Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure of yours.” Qin Yu was also extremely looking forward to it.

He wanted to know very much what sort of appearance an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure that was crafted with only materials would be.

Chehou Yuan looked to Qin Yu, Yi Feng and Jiang Li. In the end, he smiled. “Very well, since you all want to see it so badly, I shall allow you all to see this treasure that had cost me countless years of my existence.”

Chehou Yuan flipped his hand. Suddenly, a pitch black spiritual pearl was floating above Chehou Yuan’s palm.

This spiritual pearl was not large at all. It was about the size of a quail egg.

When Qin Yu saw the appearance of this black spiritual pearl, he felt that the surrounding space had burst into a slight tremble. Qin Yu even felt a burst of oppression in his heart. This oppression was brought forth by this black spiritual pearl.

“As expected of an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.” Qin Yu’s heart was trembling.

Beside him, Jiang Li and Yi Feng also managed to sense the extraordinariness of this ordinary looking black spiritual pearl.

Chehou Yuan’s gaze was focused on the black spiritual pearl above his palm. Within his gaze was pride. “This Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure was something that I’ve only managed to craft after scouring several millions of Mortal Realm cosmic spaces, gathered countless amount of peculiar materials, spent an endless amount of expenditure and even risked my soul shattering. Its name is Fix Elemental Pearl.”

“Fix Elemental Pearl?” Qin Yu and them all remembered this name.

This was the first Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure that a resident of the Divine Realm crafted through their own strength. The previous Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasures were all bestowed by the world. They were not something that anyone could craft by themselves.

“Senior Chehou, you said earlier that you risked your soul shattering. What do you mean by that?” Qin Yu asked in confusion.

Chehou Yuan began to laugh. “Qin Yu, when you saw the message that I left behind in the Bewitching God Temple, do you remember that I said that I had a feeling that the moment when I managed to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure, it was likely the moment when my soul shatters.”

Qin Yu nodded.

Chehou Yuan sighed and said. “Those words were not something that I spoke without thinking. Instead, it was a sensation that suddenly came to me after I had vowed to the Heaven and Earth that I would not give up unless I managed to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure.”

“However, the sensation that I had was extremely vague. It was only later when I truly managed to craft the Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure that I understood everything.” Chehou Yuan was smiling.

“In order to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure, one’s soul must fuse with it. At the time when I was crafting it, I had only wanted to craft an Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure and did not even care even if I was to die doing so.” Chehou Yuan sighed and said.

Qin Yu, Jiang Li and Yi Feng started to admire Chehou Yuan’s strong dedication.

“Merely, this Fix Elemental Pearl is truly extremely fantastic. I had originally thought that I would definitely die. However, who would’ve thought that this Fix Elemental Pearl actually fused together with my soul. I ended up surviving. Furthermore, this Fix Elemental Pearl did not go through any refinement and directly became my weapon.”

Chehou Yuan smiled helplessly. “I, am simply unable to gift the Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure to others. That was because my soul had been fused together with this Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure! If I forced this Fix Elemental Pearl into an ownerless item, my soul would shatter on the spot.”

Qin Yu nodded.

It was unable for him to say whether Chehou Yuan’s crafting method was good or bad.

“However, I am extremely confident that this Fix Elemental Pearl’s strength… is truly great. It is so great that I would not fear even if I faced off against the Exalted Celestials.” Chehou Yuan was extremely confident.

Qin Yu and them were surprised.

“Chehou, you’re exaggerating, right? You said you don’t even fear the Exalted Celestials? You must know that the Exalted Celestials are people who possess Exalted Celestial Spiritual Treasures. Furthermore, they would be able to stop your mobility with a single Time Stop.” Yi Feng said with a smile on his face.

Chehou Yuan lightly smiled and shook his head.

“No, you all do not understand this Fix Elemental Pearl of mine.” Chehou Yuan had an expression of absolute confidence.

Qin Yu and them began to carefully listen to Chehou Yuan.

“The offensive ability of the Fix Elemental Pearl is extremely ordinary. It’s merely… smashing.” Said Chehou Yuan with a smile. “This Fix Elemental Pearl is extremely fast. Regardless of what it is, if it is hit by this Fix Elemental Pearl, then it would likely shatter on the spot.”

“Smashing?”

Qin Yu, Jiang Li and Yi Feng all grew silent. Using a black pearl to smash? Would it truly be powerful?

Yi Feng frowned and said. “Chehou, I had said earlier, if an Exalted Celestial was to use Time Stop and then attack you with their Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure, how would you defend against that? Didn’t you say that you do not fear the Exalted Celestials?”

Chehou Yuan smiled and said. “Regarding this, we would have to talk about the Fix Elemental Pearl’s second ability. The Fix Elemental Pearl’s offensive ability is smashing. As for the second ability, it was allowing one to hide inside it.”

“Hide inside it, like a spatial Spiritual Treasure?” Jiang Li said in amazement.

Chehou Yuan shook his head and said. “It’s very similar to the spatial Spiritual Treasures. However, it could not be considered as a spatial Spiritual Treasure. Furthermore, inside the Fix Elemental Pearl, one cannot use Spatial Laws. Inside it is only the starry sky, stars, dark stars and stuff like that…”

Qin Yu, Jiang Li and them were all stunned.

The inside of this Fix Elemental Pearl was actually a cosmic space? Furthermore, one could not use Spatial Laws in it?

“Could it be that this is the same as the New Cosmos?” Qin Yu was unable to contain his suspicion.

“Senior Chehou, is there another set of Spatial Laws within the Fix Elemental Pearl?” Qin Yu promptly asked.

“Another set of Spatial Laws?” Slightly confused, Chehou Yuan shook his head. “What do you mean by that? This Fix Elemental Pearl is merely an extremely large cosmic space. Inside it, the Spatial Laws are useless. Thus, there naturally would not be another set of Spatial Laws.”

“Senior Chehou, what are the ways for one to enter into the Fix Elemental Pearl?” Qin Yu once again asked.

Chehou Yuan smiled and said. “Others are simply incapable of entering into the Fix Elemental Pearl by themselves. Only I can teleport into it. As for the others, as long as they do not resist, I am capable of bringing them in with me.”

“As for when I said that I do not fear the Exalted Celestials, it was precisely because this Exalted Celestial’s Spiritual Treasure Fix Elemental Pearl is fused with my soul. Even under Time Stop, my soul would not be stopped. I have a feeling that as long as I have an intention, I would be able to return into the Fix Elemental Pearl. The Fix Elemental Pearl could be considered as being my home, my world.” Chehou Yuan smiled and said.

Qin Yu suddenly had a sensation.

Why was Chehou Yuan’s Fix Elemental Pearl so similar to his New Cosmos?

If one were to list the differences, then it would likely be that this Fix Elemental Pearl was only a single cosmic space whereas the New Cosmos contained countless cosmic spaces and also possessed Cosmic Origin, its own Spatial Laws and Temporal Laws.

Furthermore, the New Cosmos was capable of establishing passage channels with the Divine Realm’s Cosmos.

However, the Fix Elemental Pearl could not.

“This Fix Elemental Pearl can be considered as an enormous cosmic space. It is much greater than even the Divine Realm. A single smash from it would shatter even a first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure.” Chehou Yuan said confidently. “If I hide into the Fix Elemental Pearl through teleportation and then control it to smash others… say, who would I fear?”
