High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

Chen Yuan completely immersed himself in the forging process at Wanbaohe.

Since confirming that the path based on the Nine Nether Profound Water was viable, he devoted all his energy to it.

He stopped cultivating and stopped taking elixirs.

Every day, besides activating the forging technique, I also adjust the fusion rhythm.

Chen Yuan discovered that this integration process was far more arduous than he had imagined.

Each of the finest eternal treasures has its own "temperament".

In particular, the Four Swords of Godslaying are interconnected, and if one is not careful when they merge, it will cause a violent surge of sword intent.

Fortunately, Chen Yuan's cultivation level was high enough and his strength was strong enough that he was able to suppress it each time.

But the progress is so slow it's infuriating.

For the first Hunyuan Umbrella, it took him a full three days just to completely submerge the umbrella body in the Nine Nether Profound Water.

This doesn't even include the subsequent interweaving of spirit patterns and fusion of energy.

At this rate, it would be impossible to integrate all the offensive treasures into the Nine Nether Profound Water in less than a year and a half.

Outside the training room, Chen Tianling and the Holy Dragon Guards were still guarding the manor.

Now, however, there's an extra task: dealing with visitors.

Since the interview was broadcast live, Yu Hua Star and even the entire Eastern Star Region have come to know about Chen Yuan.

Newly appointed honorary envoy, mid-stage Eternal God.

All of this news combined is enough to make countless people flock to it.

From the second day onwards, there was no peace and quiet at the entrance of the manor.

The first group to arrive were a group of local dignitaries from Yuhua Star.

Next came the heads of several major business associations in the Eastern Star Region.

Later on, even the governors of several nearby star systems came in person.

Everyone prepared generous gifts, and their words of conversation were all very similar.

It was nothing more than phrases like "I have long admired the envoy's reputation," "I have come to pay my respects," and "I have prepared a small gift as a token of my respect."

Chen Tianling initially offered a few polite explanations.

Later, when he got really annoyed, he simply put up a sign at the entrance of the manor: "The master is in seclusion and no visitors are allowed."

Even so, people still come every day.

Some people glance at the sign from afar and then leave.

Some people, however, were unwilling to give up and insisted on saying a few words to Chen Tianling.

"Vice Envoy Chen, I am merely delivering some local specialties from my hometown. I have absolutely no intention of disturbing your peaceful life."

"Yes, yes, we'll just drop off our things and leave, is that alright?"

Chen Tianling shook his head expressionlessly.

"The master has ordered that during the period of seclusion, no gifts shall be accepted and no one shall be seen."

"Please return, everyone."

The visitor could only leave dejectedly.

But they'll come back again in a few days.

Some quick-thinking individuals began to explore other avenues.

Since we can't meet with Special Envoy Chen, we should try to build good relationships with his subordinates.

After all, Chen Tianling was the closest person to Chen Yuan, possessing the cultivation of a late-stage True God and the five ultimate laws.

Even in the Eastern Star Region, he would be considered a formidable powerhouse.

As a result, Chen Tianling also became the object of flattery.

"Lord Chen, this is some spirit wine I brought back from the Silverwing Federation. Would you like to try some?"

"Lord Chen, our merchant alliance has just received a new batch of void crystals. We've heard they're quite helpful for cultivation, so we've specially reserved a portion for you."

Chen Tianling was both amused and exasperated.

He followed Chen Yuan all the way from Blue Star to here, and he's seen it all.

But on Earth, he was Chen Yuan's general, and his life consisted of nothing but fighting and cultivation.

Even in the Cangxuan Realm and the Yuqing Continent, there was mostly fighting and killing.

I've rarely experienced being surrounded by people calling me "adult" like this.

However, Chen Tianling is ultimately a calm and composed person.

No matter how much the other party tried to please him, he maintained a polite but distant attitude.

Gifts will not be accepted, and all requests will be refused.

Over time, the powerful and wealthy on Yuhua Star gradually came to understand a principle.

During Special Envoy Chen's seclusion, no one was allowed to enter that door.

Some people gave up and stopped visiting, but they still sent people to keep an eye on the manor.

"Notify me immediately once Special Envoy Chen has crossed the border."

This is a death order given by many powerful figures to their subordinates.

Others believe that the less likely you are to see someone, the more sincere you should appear.

So I would come here every few days.

He didn't force his way in; he just stood at the door for a while, chatted with Chen Tianling for a bit, and then politely said goodbye.

Although Chen Tianling was annoyed, the other party's attitude was just too good.

As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face.

They are always very polite when they come, and they always have a lot of smiles and nice things to say.

He couldn't just kick them out, so he could only deal with it patiently.

"Vice Envoy Chen, the weather is lovely today. Is the Special Envoy still in seclusion?"

"exist."

"That must have been hard work for you, Special Envoy. Your dedication to cultivation is truly exemplary."

Chen Tianling twitched the corner of his mouth.

He's heard those words at least a hundred times in the past month.

However, visitors who come every now and then usually don't stay for too long.

After exchanging a few polite words and saying "I'll come to visit again after the special envoy leaves the country," he departed.

Chen Tianling could only shake his head helplessly at this.

.........

Time passed day by day, and soon a month had gone by.

At midnight that day, spiritual energy still surged within the cultivation room.

Chen Yuan sat cross-legged on the futon, and the Nine Nether Profound Water in front of him had turned into a black water ribbon more than five zhang long.

The water flowed slowly in the training room, its surface occasionally flashing with different colored light.

The Hunyuan Umbrella had completely merged into it; the umbrella itself was no longer visible, leaving only a faint halo of chaotic light wandering on the surface of the Xuan Water.

Chen Yuan is trying to incorporate the Zhenyue Staff into it.

However, the material of the Zhenyue Staff is too heavy, and the gravity spirit pattern conflicts somewhat with the characteristics of the Nine Nether Profound Water.

It was several times more difficult to integrate than the Hunyuan Umbrella.

He tried seven or eight times, but each time he failed at the last minute.

"It's always like this."

Chen Yuan stopped what he was doing and rubbed his throbbing temples.

It's been a month.

Every day is nothing but merging.

But the harvest was pitifully small.

The only complete achievement was that the Hunyuan Umbrella successfully integrated into the Nine Nether Mystic Waters.

The Zhenyue Staff is still not dealt with, not to mention the Star-Slaying Blade, Sky-Splitting Axe, Boundary-Breaking Halberd, Star-Shattering Bow, Thunder-Gathering Pestle, the Four God-Slaying Swords, the Heaven-Devouring Bottle, and a whole bunch of others to come.

At this rate, it would take at least a year just to integrate all of these things.

Not to mention that the overall balance of the Wanbao River will need to be adjusted after the integration.

"This is such a waste of time."

Chen Yuan sighed.

The excitement I felt a month ago has almost completely faded.

He was well aware of how attractive Wanbaohe's prospects were.

But while the prospects are promising, the real difficulties remain.

With his current forging skills, it's indeed a bit of a stretch for him to perfectly fuse so many top-grade eternal treasures.

"How about... we come back and continue this project after our forging technology has improved to a higher level?"

Chen Yuan began to have second thoughts.

He leaned back on the meditation cushion and looked up at the ceiling of the meditation room.

Suddenly, a familiar mechanical voice echoed in my mind.

[Ding! The monthly check-in count has been refreshed. Would you like to check in now?]

Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment.

Then it dawned on me that another month had passed.

He worked day and night for a month, not even noticing the passage of time.

"Let's sign in first and see what we get this time."

Chen Yuan pondered to himself.

"If only there were something that could improve weapon forging skills, then Wanbaohe could continue."

He took a deep breath and responded in his mind.

"Check-in".

[Ding! Check-in successful!]

["Congratulations, host, on receiving the following rewards: the Supreme Eternal Treasure Star-Shattering Scythe, the Supreme Eternal Treasure Sky-Splitting Spear, and the Special Treasure Heart of the Myriad Laws Furnace."]

"Shattered Star Scythe: A supreme eternal treasure. The scythe body is forged from a combination of Dark Abyss Meteorite Iron and Star Core Essence, and the blade is engraved with Shattered Star Spirit Runes."

With a single swing of the sickle, it can shatter stars, making it suitable for large-scale harvesting.

When used in conjunction with spatial laws, it can instantly appear thousands of miles away, possessing extremely high destructive power and a very wide attack range.

The spirit runes contain the power of a meteorite, and each swing carries the might of a falling star.

"Sky-Splitting Spear: A supreme eternal treasure. The spearhead is forged from void crystals and celestial black iron, and the tip contains the law of tearing."

Once thrown, it can pierce through the void, crack spatial barriers, and is extremely fast with strong penetrating power.

Ignoring ordinary defenses, it is suitable for long-range kills. Once a target is locked, it can traverse the void to directly take the enemy's head.

"Heart of the Furnace of All Laws: A special type of supreme treasure. Formed from fragments of the primordial chaos furnace at the beginning of the universe, it can automatically harmonize energy conflicts between different supreme treasures."

Integrating this item into the forging system can significantly improve the success rate and efficiency of treasure fusion, perfectly resolving the energy repulsion problem during the fusion of multiple treasures.

Chen Yuan quickly went through the three rewards.

The first two weapons are indeed quite good.

The Star Shattering Scythe is suitable for large-scale harvesting, while the Sky-Splitting Spear has strong penetrating power.

In the hands of the eternal God outside, it would definitely be considered a powerful weapon.

But for Chen Yuan now, it's just icing on the cake.

He already has enough offensive treasures on him.

Adding an extra sickle and spear won't have a significant impact.

What truly caught his eye was that special treasure, the Heart of the Furnace of All Laws!

Chen Yuan read the system's introduction word by word, his eyes widening as he looked at it.

"It can automatically resolve energy conflicts between different treasures... greatly improving the success rate and efficiency of fusion... perfectly solving the problem of energy repulsion..."

Chen Yuan slapped his thigh and sprang up from the futon.

"Isn't this exactly what I need right now?!"

His voice trembled with excitement.

The biggest difficulty in building Wanbaohe is energy repulsion.

Each treasure has different attributes, and there will be constant conflicts when forcibly fused together.

He has to spend a lot of energy suppressing these conflicts, and if he is not careful, all his previous efforts will be in vain.

The Heart of the Furnace of All Laws is precisely designed to solve this core problem!

With it, fusion efficiency can be increased by more than ten or a hundred times!

"Brother Tong! I love you to death! You get everything I wish for! Hahaha!"

Chen Yuan burst into laughter, his voice echoing in the cultivation room.

The system in my mind was completely silent, offering no response.

Chen Yuan had long been accustomed to the system's silence.

He tried to suppress the joy on his face, but the corners of his mouth still couldn't help but turn up.

"receive!"

[Ding! Reward has been issued, please check.]

As soon as he finished speaking, three beams of light shone from the infinite storage space.

The Shattering Star Scythe appeared first.

The scythe, entirely black, is more than a person tall, with dark gold star-core patterns winding from the handle all the way up to the crescent-shaped tip of the blade.

The scythe blade gleamed with a cold, eerie light, and faint stardust drifted down from its surface.

The Sky-Splitting Spear followed closely behind.

The spear's silvery-white shaft was long and straight, and around the spearhead, crafted from void crystals, space was slightly distorted, rippling with circles of light that were barely perceptible to the naked eye.

Finally, the Heart of the Furnace of All Laws appeared.

It was a ball of light the size of a fist, its surface shimmering with chaotic colors.

No, that's not right.

Upon closer inspection, Chen Yuan discovered that the sphere of light was merely an outer shell.

Inside, there seemed to be something purer, slowly pulsating.

The chaotic-colored shell was covered with extremely ancient spiritual runes, each one so profound that it was dazzling.

Chen Yuan scanned it with his Eye of Void and immediately gasped.

"These spirit runes... actually involve the laws of the furnace from the beginning of the universe."

"No wonder it can harmonize all things!"

If these three items were left out in the open, any one of them would be enough to drive the eternal gods into a frenzy of fighting over.

Especially the heart of the furnace of all laws.

This level of special treasure is far rarer than even the highest-grade eternal treasure!

After all, the Eternal Treasure can be forged from materials.

However, the Heart of the All-Encompassing Furnace, a special item formed in the early days of the universe, is unique and once missed, it will never be available again.

Chen Yuan immediately took out all three treasures.

The Star Shattering Scythe and the Sky-Splitting Spear hovered beside him.

The two new weapons exuded a powerful aura, which intertwined with the auras of the other treasures in the training room.

Chen Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

"That's good. These two items will also be incorporated into Wanbaohe in the future."

He turned his head and his gaze fell on the pulsating ball of light.

"With this treasure, Wanbaohe's success is only a matter of time."

Chen Yuan took a deep breath and sat down cross-legged again.

He didn't rush to throw the Heart of the Myriad Laws Furnace directly into the Nine Nether Profound Water.

Instead, he first mobilized the eternal divine power within his body to slowly envelop the ball of light.

Under the stimulation of divine power, the chaotic-colored shell gradually became brighter.

Chen Yuan formed hand seals and slowly pushed the Heart of the Myriad Laws Furnace into the Nine Nether Profound Water.

The moment they made contact, something wonderful happened.

The moment the ball of light touched the black water, its outer shell automatically cracked open.

The pulsating chaotic matter inside slowly flowed out, like a drop of ink falling into clear water, and quickly spread throughout the Nine Nether Mysterious Waters.

The entire Nine Nether Profound Water suddenly trembled!

Then Chen Yuan saw that the originally incompatible lights on the surface of the water belt began to automatically converge and merge.

Those rays of light were the residual energy left over after the Hunyuan Umbrella was integrated.

And fragments of spirit patterns left over from the fusion attempts of treasures such as the Zhenyue Staff and the Zhanxing Blade.

Under the harmonization of the Heart of the Furnace of All Laws, they automatically arranged and combined to form stable energy nodes.

"this......"

Chen Yuan's eyes widened, both surprised and delighted.

He could clearly feel that the overall structure of the Nine Nether Mystic Water had become much more stable.

The energy conflicts that originally required him to expend a great deal of his divine soul power to suppress have now disappeared on their own.

"That's incredible!"

Chen Yuan quickly retrieved the Zhenyue Staff and attempted to fuse it again.

This time, as soon as the Zhenyue Staff touched the Nine Nether Mystic Water, it slid smoothly into the water.

There was no rejection, no conflict, and no surprises.

The rich earthy aura blended perfectly with the mysterious waters of the Nine Netherworld.

In less than half an hour, the Zhenyue Staff had been completely integrated into the body.

Seeing this scene, Chen Yuan almost wanted to burst into laughter.

"The Zhenyue Staff, which took so long to tinker with, was finished in just half an hour!"

"What kind of divine thing is this Heart of the Furnace of All Laws?!"

He was so excited that his face turned red, and his eyes were filled with ecstasy.

But he quickly forced himself to calm down.

While the Heart of the All-Encompassing Furnace is powerful, it is not omnipotent.

It only reconciles energy conflicts; the details of the fusion process still need to be controlled by itself.

If the operation is too rough, it is still possible to fail.

However, with it, the overall difficulty has dropped by more than one level.

Chen Yuan took a few deep breaths to calm his excited emotions.

Then he continued to activate the forging technique and retrieved the Star-Slaying Blade.

Star-Slaying Blade, Sky-Splitting Axe, Boundary-Breaking Halberd, Star-Shattering Bow, Thunder-Gathering Pestle, Sky-Swallowing Bottle, Star-Shattering Scythe, Sky-Splitting Spear, and the Four Swords of Godslayer.

One by one, the treasures lined up and merged into the Nine Nether Mystic Waters.

The fusion of each treasure was more than a hundred times smoother than before.

What used to take seven or eight days or even a month to complete can now be done in a few hours or days.

Even the Four Swords of Godslaying, which are extremely difficult to tame, were successfully integrated into the fold in just one week.

Time passed day by day.

The water belt formed by the Nine Nether Mysterious Waters is getting wider and longer.

From the initial five zhang, to ten zhang, and then to thirty zhang.

The color of the entire water hose also changed.

From its initial deep blackness, it gradually transformed into a dazzling Milky Way.

The golden Law of Metal, the emerald green Law of Wood, the crimson Law of Fire, the icy blue Law of Ice, the silvery white Law of Space, and the dark Law of Darkness.

The aura of the six ultimate laws flowed across the surface of the water, like countless light dragons swimming in the Milky Way.

But Chen Yuan knew that Wanbao River was still a long way from being fully formed.

Currently, all offensive treasures have been integrated with the Nine Nether Profound Water.

But integration is only the first step.

The next step is to continuously refine and temper the artifacts so that the spiritual patterns on these treasures can be completely integrated.

Ultimately, this forms a "Tianhe River" that can be controlled at will.

This requires months of meticulous refinement.

However, Chen Yuan was not in a hurry at all.

The most difficult hurdle has been overcome.

The rest is just a matter of time before it gets polished.

Moreover, the power of Wanbao River will gradually become apparent during this process.

When he finally takes shape, his strength will reach a new level.

Chen Yuan smiled, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Wanbaohe... I'm waiting for the day you're born."
