Chapter 563: 16 episodes 24 Chapters ’Residual Snow’ finally completed

While Qin Yu and Li’er quietly cultivated in the New Universe, the lord of the East Pole Xuanjin Mountain, East Pole Saint Emperor Huangfu Yu, faced some troubles of his own.

In the study room of the East Pole Saint Emperor Hall, owned by Huangfu Yu.

"Your Majesty, these past few days you always seem to be at your wit’s end. What’s wrong? Is there something you can’t solve? Just a few days ago, you were joyful over Lanxuan Hall Master commencing his artifact refining," said the wife of the East Pole Saint Emperor as she entered the study and spoke softly.

Huangfu Yu, sitting at his desk, looked up at his approaching wife and smiled helplessly, "Xu Yan, you know that Qin Yu has taken the position of Lanxuan Hall Master, but I have only bestowed upon him some scrolls."

’Xu Yan’ nodded slightly, "True, you only bestowed some scrolls, and I too feel that what was given was somewhat inadequate."

One of the Four Palace Masters, how prestigious is that position?

East Pole Saint Emperor Huangfu Yu should at least have given Qin Yu something precious, like... an Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact!

"According to the rules of East Pole Xuanjin Mountain, ordinary Upper Heavenly Gods are only awarded an Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact if they have accomplished great deeds. And since Qin Yu is the Lanxuan Hall Master, a position of great reverence, by rights, I should have granted him an Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact as soon as he took office," Huangfu Yu remarked.

His wife ’Xu Yan’ nodded, "Then why didn’t you bestow it, Your Majesty?"

"It’s not that I didn’t want to, but in my Imperial City, there are no Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts left in stock," East Pole Saint Emperor Huangfu Yu explained helplessly.

Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts are not so easily refined.

"There are some Middle Grade and Low Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts in stock, but surely I can’t just give a Middle Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact to the Lanxuan Hall Master?" Huangfu Yu shook his head and chuckled bitterly.

His wife ’Xu Yan’ nodded in agreement, then comfortingly said, "Your Majesty, you saw that Hall Master competition yourself, Qin Yu isn’t lacking Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts."

"The fact that he possesses Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts isn’t a reason for me not to give him a gift," Huangfu Yu shook his head and sighed.

"Qin Yu has Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts and such formidable array formations; he must surely have a powerful master backing him," ’Xu Yan’ said.

Huangfu Yu chuckled lightly, "Let’s not talk about that for now. I want to give Qin Yu an Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact, but I don’t have any."

"Recently, my old subordinate, the Luanyu City Lord, brought many treasures, hoping to exchange them for an Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact. But I... alas!" Huangfu Yu sighed helplessly.

’Xu Yan’ suddenly understood.

The Luanyu City Lord, the Wei Chi City Lord, and some other city lords were Huangfu Yu’s old subordinates, loyal ministers who had come through the epic war six million eons ago.

Huangfu Yu treated these old subordinates well, allowing them to hold various city lord positions.

This time, the Luanyu City Lord had brought a large number of treasures simply for the sake of exchanging them for an Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact. In terms of value, the treasures brought by the Luanyu City Lord were certainly worth an Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact. But Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts are so rare that they are priceless.

Faced with the request from an old subordinate, I really couldn’t refuse, yet I had no Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts to give. I couldn’t tell my loyal old subordinate that I, the grand Saint Emperor, couldn’t produce an Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact, could I?" Huangfu Yu felt a bit embarrassed.

Xu Yan completely understood her husband’s predicament.

"Your Majesty, how did you respond to him then?" Xu Yan inquired further.

Huangfu Yu somewhat sheepishly said, "I couldn’t just refuse, so at that moment I promised him that I would arrange for an Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifact to be delivered to him in a few days."

"You agreed?" Xu Yan was slightly astonished.

Pretending to be fat despite a swollen face.

"Your Majesty, are you troubled about this matter?" Xu Yan pressed.

Huangfu Yu shook his head, "It’s not this matter that troubles me. I agreed to the Luanyu City Lord because I had some confidence. I have already sent someone to Thunder Punishment City to request the ’Ou Yezi,’ the Artifact Refining Master."

"Ou Yezi?" Xu Yan nodded slightly, "In the entire Divine World, only three masters can refine Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts."

The Divine World, the three great Artifact Refining Masters.

Ranked first, the most formidable in artifact-refining skills, ’Artisan God’ Che Hou Yuan, who is also the only one qualified to be called ’Artisan God’.

Ranked second and third, possessing nearly equal refining skills, are ’Ou Yezi’ and ’Duanmu Feng’.

Ou Yezi is from Thunder Punishment City, while Duanmu Feng is a direct descendant of South Pole Mirror Light City, and the actual younger brother of ’Duanmu Yu,’ the Master of Mingyu Hall.

"Why are you troubled, Your Majesty? Could it be that Thunder Punishment City is not giving you face?" Xu Yan asked again.

"No, Thunder Punishment City would still give me face, but... the conditions proposed by Ou Yezi are just too high." Huangfu Yu snorted coldly, "Ever since Che Hou Yuan disappeared, the terms for refining by these two, Ou Yezi and Duanmu Feng, have increased tenfold. It’s the same for everyone, truly... it’s excessive!"

Xu Yan also nodded, "Che Hou Yuan, when he used to refine for others, proposed very low conditions. They were much lower than those of Ou Yezi and Duanmu Feng."

Neither Huangfu Yu nor Xu Yan could understand.

Ou Yezi and Duanmu Feng, their array formation skills are of the Sixth-level Array Formation Realm. Setting up their formations is very complex and incredibly draining on the heart power.

And what about the Artisan God Che Hou Yuan?

Che Hou Yuan could set up an Eighth Level Formation, and although it doesn’t quite match the simplicity of Qin Yu’s ’Qiankun’ formation, it isn’t too far off. Setting it up is also a matter of moments.

Che Hou Yuan requires less effort in refining, naturally his prices are lower.

Che Hou Yuan had a high level of refining skill but low prices. This made the then ’Artisan God’ Che Hou Yuan extremely popular, and the great name of the Mishen Palace also spread across the Divine World. Meanwhile, the other two great Artifact Refining Masters were very frustrated.

And now, Che Hou Yuan had disappeared.

Ou Yezi and Duanmu Feng immediately raised their prices, and no matter who it was, the terms they offered were about the same. They both have solid backing and aren’t afraid of offending anyone.

"I was planning to have Ou Yezi refine three Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts, but the terms he’s asked for make me feel a bit pained," lamented Huangfu Yu helplessly.

Not having an Artifact Refining Master in my own East Pole Xuanjin Mountain is truly frustrating.

"We must bear it even if we can’t, after all, currently only Duanmu Feng and Ou Yezi have the ability to refine Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts," Xu Yan also sighed helplessly.

Refining isn’t just about strength.

Even Divine Kings, at most they can refine a Space Divine Artifact. As for weapons that are Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts, they simply cannot refine them.

"I really don’t know where Che Hou Yuan has gone, even I can’t find out," Huangfu Yu felt helpless in his heart.

He truly missed those early days when, at a small cost, he could have Artisan God Che Hou Yuan help craft Heavenly Divine Artifacts. Alas, such days were gone forever.

"Back then, why didn’t I have Artisan God Che Hou Yuan craft more Heavenly Divine Artifacts?" Huangfu Yu regretted inwardly.

"Your Majesty, our Lanxuan Hall Master’s cultivation in Array Formation even surpasses that of Ou Yezi and Duanmu Feng. If he continues his research, he will someday become an Artifact Refining Master as well—you needn’t worry," Xu Yan persuaded.

Huangfu Yu nodded slightly.

"We can only wait now. But becoming an Artifact Refining Master takes a very, very long time. Even for a genius, it might take at least a hundred million years," said Huangfu Yu helplessly.

Huangfu Yu didn’t know that Qin Yu was refining artifacts in his own universe, where he had a clear understanding of various aspects of artifact refining and cultivated at a faster rate. In ten million years, Qin Yu had already gained the ability to craft Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts.

"Ah, that’s right! This time Ou Yezi is coming to my East Pole Xuanjin Mountain to refine artifacts. It’s a rare opportunity; we must have Qin Yu observe it. It will be very helpful for Qin Yu’s artifact crafting," said Huangfu Yu with a gleam in his eyes.

Huangfu Yu had already placed all his hopes in artifact refining on Qin Yu.

Until now, Huangfu Yu still thought of Qin Yu as merely a fledgling in artifact refining.

"Right, this opportunity is indeed rare," Xu Yan also lit up.

"I’ll immediately send someone to pass the order," Huangfu Yu decided right away.

...

The command from Huangfu Yu soon reached Lanxuan Hall. Upon receiving the message, Uncle Fu and Qiu Zhongfu promptly used Telepathic Communication to inform Qin Yu about the matter.

******

In the New Universe, on Zixuan Star.

Qin Yu had just finished discussing over a million Low Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts with Li’er. While Qin Yu and Li’er were planning for the future, Qin Yu received the Telepathic Communication.

"Artifact Refining Master ’Ou Yezi’?" Qin Yu was somewhat puzzled; he didn’t know much about Ou Yezi.

"Li’er, do you know about Ou Yezi?" Qin Yu asked the Li’er beside him.

Li’er’s eyes brightened: "Big Brother Qin Yu, haven’t you heard about Ou Yezi? In the Divine World, only three people are capable of crafting Upper Grade Heavenly Divine Artifacts: Artisan God Che Hou Yuan, and Ou Yezi, and Duanmu Feng. These three are worthy of the title ’Artifact Refining Master.’"

"Among them, Artisan God Che Hou Yuan has the highest level of crafting because he is the only one among them who crafted a First-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure, and thus, he is honored as ’Artisan God’!" Li’er said, her eyes full of admiration.

Qin Yu also nodded slightly. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Qin Yu was aware that Artisan God Che Hou Yuan had crafted a First-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure, which represented the pinnacle of Che Hou Yuan’s crafting achievements.

This led Che Hou Yuan to leave the Divine World to pursue the ultimate in artifact crafting, aiming to craft the highest "Heavenly Venerable Spiritual Treasure."

"By the way, for whom did he craft that First-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure?" Qin Yu asked curiously. He knew that Che Hou Yuan crafted a First-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure for someone, but who it was crafted for, he did not know.

Li’er’s expression turned solemn: "Asura God King, the actual Controller of the Asura Sea!"

"Asura God King?" Qin Yu’s mind suddenly conjured up some information about the Asura God King.

In the Divine World, there are eleven major forces, eight Divine Clans, and three Ascenders’ Forces. Among these, the Asura Sea is the strongest. The Asura God King, whose status is revered, is certainly no less than that of the Eight Great Saint Emperors.

"The power of the Asura God King is greatly feared even by the Eight Great Saint Emperors. Since Artisan God Che Hou Yuan crafted a first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure for the Asura God King, no Divine King dares to trouble Che Hou Yuan anymore," Li’er said with a sigh.

A first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure is extremely precious.

"Li’er, don’t worry, one day I will also craft a first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure," Qin Yu said with a smile. Li’er nodded at Qin Yu’s bold words, firmly believing that Qin Yu could indeed achieve that.

In Li’er’s heart, Qin Yu could accomplish anything he said.

"Li’er, this time the East Pole Saint Emperor has ordered me to observe Ou Yezi’s artifact refining, so I can’t not go. Therefore..." Qin Yu looked at Li’er apologetically.

Qin Yu didn’t want to leave Li’er, but Li’er couldn’t possibly appear at East Pole Xuanjin Mountain.

"I understand. You go," Li’er said with a comforting smile. "It’s okay, I’ll be cultivating in seclusion, and time will pass quickly."

Qin Yu nodded slightly and gently kissed Li’er’s forehead, Li’er then closed her eyes.

"Eh? What’s going on, could it be..." Qin Yu paused momentarily.

"What is it, Big Brother Qin Yu?" Li’er opened her eyes and looked at Qin Yu with confusion.

Qin Yu looked down and smiled slightly at Li’er, "It’s nothing, it’s just about the Residual Snow Divine Spear. You go ahead and cultivate. I’ll be heading back to East Pole Xuanjin Mountain soon."

After saying this, Qin Yu directly went to another part of Donglan Mountain.

There, a mass of Xuanhuang Energy was floating in mid-air, and the Residual Snow Divine Spear was hovered within it. Qin Yu had not paid attention over the years and realized... that the Residual Snow Divine Spear had long stopped absorbing the Xuanhuang Energy.

For nearly ten million years, the Residual Snow Divine Spear had already absorbed to its limit.

"My Lord," the Clone in a Green Robe opened his eyes and bowed to Qin Yu.

Qin Yu nodded slightly, "I hadn’t expected that the Residual Snow Divine Spear could only absorb ten percent of the Xuanhuang Energy, and can no longer absorb more." With a single stretch of his hand, the Residual Snow Divine Spear reached Qin Yu’s hand.

With the spear in hand, Qin Yu felt as if no one could stand against him.

The Residual Snow Divine Spear, which initially absorbed less than one-thousandth of the Xuanhuang Energy, was already comparable in power to a first-class Hongmeng Spiritual Treasure. Now, having absorbed ten percent of the Xuanhuang Energy, the power of the Residual Snow Divine Spear had reached a terrifying degree.

"Even the Divine King, would he dare to face this spear?" Holding the Residual Snow Divine Spear, Qin Yu felt immensely powerful.

With a thought, the Residual Snow Divine Spear was already absorbed into his body.

Nodding slightly to the clone, Qin Yu then looked up at the sky and murmured softly, "Artifact Refining Master Ou Yezi, huh? I really want to see what the artifact refining skills of this master are like."

Suddenly, Qin Yu disappeared.
