689 - 697

Chapter 689

Er Chun's expression turned extremely gloomy, and there was still a hint of unconcealed shock in his eyes. As a Heavenly Jewel Master who had the highest cultivation base among all who were present, he knew how difficult it was to make the Consolidated Equipment Scroll in an instant. Not only did creating a Consolidated Equipment Scroll require Spatial Attribute Heavenly Energy, but it also required the combination of Consolidated Equipment Liquid, meticulous control of timing, and pacing. Every single aspect mattered.

Moreover for Zhou Weiqing to speedily produce a Consolidated Equipment Scroll, just his pacing alone was completely thrown out of the window, much less anything else. Also, if a person who could easily create a Consolidated Equipment Scroll claimed to have the abilities of a God Tier Master, there was no reason not to believe him.

After a series of changes in his expression, Er Chun forced a smile that was uglier than a cry. "Master, please forgive me if I've offended you. It was my mistake for not being able to save them. You cannot be blamed.There's no doubt that you've passed, and qualify to participate in the finals for the talent selection. Furthermore, I believe that you'll shine in the finals and definitely join the Mysterious Heavenly Palace."

There was nothing else that Er Chun could do. If the upper management knew about this, it would be the end of his time in the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. Compared to the benefits he received from Sang Tan and the others, his position in the Mysterious Heavenly Palace was clearly more important. Moreover, who would offend a God Tier Master? Any ordinary person would absolutely choose not to. Therefore, no matter how much resentment and depressed he felt, he could only bear with it. He did not dare to express his feelings at all.

Zhou Weiqing smiled lightly before he said sarcastically, "That's great. But is Master Er Chun not feeling well? Your response was too slow." After throwing the sarcastic remark at him, Zhou Weiqing floated off the stage and grabbed Bing'er's hand before he turned and left.

He had written down the address of the hotel he was staying in when he registered, so someone could naturally send the recommendation qualifications for the finals to him. The Heavenly Jewel Masters opened up a path for him when he walked past them. Under the burning gazes of everyone, Zhou Weiqing left hand in hand with Shangguan Bing'er.

On the platform, Sang Tan was so mad that he fell into a stupor. Er Chun did not dare to play favorites anymore as he proceeded with another round of trials and picked two participants to advance to the final. Only then did the entire farce come to an end.

When they reached the hotel, Shangguan Bing'er said worriedly, "Little Fatty, don't you think you overdid it? Besides, you're not a God Tier Master! You'll be easily exposed once you reach the Mysterious Heavenly Palace headquarters."

Zhou Weiqing chuckled. "Who told you that I'm not a God Tier Master? With the necessary papers and materials, it's not impossible to be one. Although I'm not at the Heavenly King Stage yet, with the help of Saint Energy, it's not difficult to make a God Tier Master Level Consolidated Equipment Scroll. It wouldn't cause too much of a trouble."

Shangguan Bing'er was stunned after listening to what he said. She found it hard to believe his words. "Your becoming of a God Tier Master is way to easy. Doesn't it require experience?"

Zhou Weiqing shook his head. "You don't understand. The Saint Energy allows me to make a Consolidated Equipment Scroll with my skills. I can totally demonstrate a heaven-defying state. When has your hubby ever bragged? When the time comes when it is needed, you will naturally see it."

Ever since he found out about the selection, Zhou Weiqing had come up with two plans. One plan was to rely mainly on Shangguan Bing'er since her cultivation base was at the Seventh Jewel. It was a sure thing that she would become a core disciple of the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. When that happened, she could act as the leading role while he could act as support. He could lurk in the darkness, and there was definitely a chance for him to find out more about the Spatial Teleportation Stone while inside the Mysterious Heavenly Palace.

The plan was safer, and the risk of exposure was relatively low. The way he saw it, there was only one flaw in his plan. It was Shangguan Bing'er's beauty. In addition, the reason why Zhou Weiqing did not want to reveal his strength was that it would not gain him attention while he hid in the shadows. It would be easier for him to take action. However, what happened earlier during the selection was completely out of his calculations. He did not expect that the situation would turn out that way. If he did not show his ability earlier, he might not be able to advance to the finals. Moreover, since Sang De had crossed his bottom line, he thought he might as well kill all of the foppish sons and choose the second plan.

The second plan was naturally exposing himself as a God Tier Master. The plan was more rigorous compared to the other. With this identity, it would not incur suspicion from others when he and Shangguan Bing'er used their Legendary Sets. Even as a God Tier Master, he could still conceal his cultivation base. The only problem was the plan was one that was of an excessively high profile. He was bound to attract the attention of others, including the upper echelons of the Mysterious Heavenly Palace, if he entered the Mysterious Heavenly Palace as a God Tier Master. That would greatly restrict his movements. However, similarly, the chances of him coming into contact with the Spatial Teleportation Stone would be greater.

Back at the residence of Ubaatar City's mayor.

"Master, is my son just going to die in vain?" Sang Tan was breathing heavily as he slammed his fat hand on the table. There were only four people present. Besides the mayor and Er Chun, the other two were the men who had also lost their sons today.

Er Chun's face was twitching as he pointed at the things on the table. "I'm returning all these to you. All of you saw that what happened today. It was completely out of my control. Your sons are dead but…" He stopped and proceeded to emphasize, "You are still alive."

Er Chun stood up and left the moment he finished saying those words, leaving the three men stewing in anger. The three of them held significant positions in Ubaatar City. However, no matter how mad they were at the moment, there was nothing that they could do about it.

God Tier Master! That man was a God Tier Master! How could they afford to offend him? What Er Chun said in the end was right. Although their sons were dead, they were still alive. The Mysterious Heavenly Palace would definitely come after them if they took revenge.

Everybody knew that the Mysterious Heavenly Palace, which dominated the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland, only had two God Tier Masters. Those two God Tier Masters were supreme existences in the Mysterious Heavenly Palace, with extraordinary standing. Even the incumbent Mysterious Heavenly Palace Master had to be courteous towards them.

After dinner, Zhou Weiqing pulled Shangguan Bing'er back to their room to do the thing that they enjoyed the most. Suddenly, a polite voice came from the other side of the door. "Master, Er Chun would like to see you."

Zhou Weiqing adjusted the playful grin on his face immediately into something a little more appropriate. His entire being exuded a poised bearing as he said indifferently, "Come in."

When the door opened, Er Chun walked in respectfully. His attitude was completely different from earlier. There was no wry or embarrassed expressions, only extreme politeness. He approached Zhou Weiqing with something in his hands.

Zhou Weiqing took the main seat without inviting him to sit.

"Master Er Chun, is there a reason why you're here?"

Er Chun hurriedly said in panic, "Please. You can drop the title. Just call me by my name. I'm here to deliver this to you. It's a confirmation of both you and your wife's place in the finals."

Er Chun passed the thing that he held in his hands to Zhou Weiqing as he spoke. They were two letters sealed with red wax and two black tokens. Zhou Weiqing took them and put them away in his Sumeru Ring.

"Is there anything else?" Zhou Weiqing asked nonchalantly.

Er Chun was sweating. He sent the things personally so that he could change the impression which Zhou Weiqing had of him. It would be the end of him if Zhou Weiqing reported what happened earlier to the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. He did not have any support in the Mysterious Heavenly Palace, or else he would not have been sent to such a remote city.

"Master, I've already reported to the management about you. It was my fault what happened today. I allowed greed to blind me. It's just that life is hard here in this shithole! Even the purchase of Consolidated Equipment Scroll requires me to earn the money by myself. I only resorted to that because I had no other choice. Your safety is important to us. I'm willing to escort the both of you personally to Heaven City. Also, here's a gift from me. I hope you'll accept it."

As Er Chun spoke, a box appeared in his hands magically. He passed the box reverently to Zhou Weiqing. Zhou Weiqing took the box, but his mind stirred a little. The moment the box appeared, a light fragrance suffused the air. It was a unique wood fragrance, the smell of agarwood. There was agarwood in the Boundless Mainland as well, and they were very precious. It was also one of the required ingredients to make Consolidated Equipment Liquid. The item that was in the box must be expensive judging from how precious the box was.

Usually, it was considered rude to open a gift in public, but Zhou Weiqing was not bothered about that. He unlocked the box and opened it. The agarwood box was not light, and although it was made of wood, it would have sunken in water. Zhou Weiqing's eyes immediately lit up. Even a knowledgeable person like him was pleasantly surprised when he saw the contents of the box.

There was a layer of yellow silk at the bottom of the box that looked elegant. In the box, there were two lustrous pearls that were the size of a baby's fist. Even ordinary pearls of this size and flawlessness would be priceless. Furthermore, the two pearls even suffused a golden color. They were one of the rarest types of pearls. Especially with the both of them being of nearly equal size, they truly could be considered rare treasures.

There were pearls of white, black, and gold, in ascending order of rarity. It was hard for Zhou Weiqing to appraise how much the two big Gold Pearls cost. Shangguan Bing'er's eyes lit up too. There were no ladies who did not like jewelry, especially something as precious as Gold Pearls.

Chapter 690

Although the Heaven's Expanse Palace had a lot of precious treasures, Shangguan Bing'er had never placed much importance on those things. She grew up in the Heavenly Bow Empire, and she considered herself a citizen of the Heavenly Bow Empire. She might look soft on the outside, but among the three sisters, she was the most stubborn one. If her mind was made up, there was no changing it. Just like her relationship with Zhou Weiqing, she would elope with him if Shangguan Tianyue was opposed to them being together.

Zhou Weiqing was mesmerized by the Gold Pearl in his hands. He was sure that the pearl came from a Millennia Oyster! The pearl exuded a unique aura and did not need any other embellishment to make it more exquisite. The pearl alone had a calming effect when it was placed in a room. However, that was not the important part. Duan Tianlang had told him that he might be able to obtain another Ringless Ground Purging Set if he had a Millennia Gold Pearl. That would mean he would be able to progress to the level of the Boundless Infinitum Set.

Duan Tianlang did not feel too much pressure as he was confident with Zhou Weiqing, with him already having the materials for the Ringless Ground Purging Set. Ever since he met Zhou Weiqing, he had been researching ways to improve the Ringless Ground Purging Set. He had mentioned the Millennia Gold Pearl to Zhou Weiqing before. However, the pearl was too rare, and Zhou Weiqing could not find it anywhere in the Heaven's Expanse Palace. It was completely out of his expectation that a pearl would fall into his hands.

After all, these were two different mainlands. Something considered rare on the Heaven's Expanse Boundless Mainland might not be considered the same on the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland. As the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland was not as abundant in land and resources as the Boundless Mainland, the extent of oceanic development was more advanced here. Millennia Oysters which produce Millenia Gold Pearls only existed in the depths of the ocean. Although it was considered to be precious on the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland, it would not be considered as exceedingly rare.

Er Chun was good at reading people's expression. When he saw how Zhou Weiqing was admiring the pearl, he knew that Zhou Weiqing liked the gift that he had brought. He tried to hide the excitement he felt and said, "I've been collecting these for a couple of years. If Master likes it, I'll you bring you more in the future."

Although wealth was important to a Heavenly Jewel Master, what else could be considered to be more precious than a Master Level Consolidated Equipment Scroll? Besides, Er Chun had a plan of his own. With Zhou Weiqing's identity as a God Tier Master, he would definitely have a high position as soon as he entered the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. If Zhou Weiqing managed to rise in ranks, what would all these items even be worth? He would definitely be able to get back 10, maybe even 100 times the value.

Zhou Weiqing put the Millennia Gold Pearl back into the box carefully before he handed it over to Shangguan Bing'er who was standing next to him. "These treasures are beautiful. Er Chun, you've been very kind. I'll close an eye to what you did this morning. However, please show more restraint in the future, alright?"

Er Chun was over the moon. He was most afraid of meeting someone with a strong sense of righteousness. If that were the case, he would be finished. It was clear that Zhou Weiqing was not like that as he had no qualms in accepting the gift. As long as Zhou Weiqing accepted his gift then it would mean that everything was resolved?

Shangguan Bing'er held the box close to her. She liked the Gold Pearl a lot and was secretly happy as she looked at the box. Little Fatty was just too naughty. Here he was playing the role of a corrupted official. To be exact, he was playing the role of a greedy God Tier Master. However, she was not opposed to the way he handled the situation. After all, these were resources from the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland. It would be dumb if they refused the gift.

Suddenly, a series of knocking could be heard from the door. Zhou Weiqing raised an eyebrow. They were newcomers here. Why would there be visitors?

"Come in," Zhou Weiqing said softly while Er Chun glanced skeptically at the door.

A beaming old man entered the room. "Brother Zhou, you got me good!" It was Master Gu Yu that he met on The Pearl.

Although Gu Yu's clan was not in Ubaatar City, it was located nearby. A younger clan member of his took part in the Mysterious Heavenly Selection this morning, and because Zhou Weiqing had killed the three brats, his clan member had obtained a spot.

Gu Yu regretted his decision the moment he found out that Zhou Weiqing was a God Tier Master. So he tried to remedy his mistake. He could not blame himself for the oversight either; Zhou Weiqing was really too young.

If he had known earlier, he would definitely have gotten Zhou Weiqing to join his clan and never let him go. With a God Tier Master in his clan, given enough time, they might be able to form another Saint Land! What made him the most depressed was the fact that he was the one who had written Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er's recommendation letters. He should have known! Why would such a beauty like Shangguan Bing'er be with such a mediocre looking man if wasn't for his talent? Moreover, he was a God Tier Master!

However, it was too late now as Zhou Weiqing had shown interest in joining the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. No matter how daring Gu Yu was, he did not have the guts to stop Zhou Weiqing as it would bring trouble to his clan. Knowing this, Gu Yu still insisted on paying him a visit. After all, he had saved Zhou Weiqing's life and wished to claim that debt with additional interest. Also, it was beneficial for himself to have a close relationship with a God Tier Master.

Realizing that it was Gu Yu, Zhou Weiqing smiled as he greeted him. "Ahh, it's Master Gu Yu. You can't blame me for hiding the truth! It was our first encounter, and we were in the middle of the sea where anything could happen, so I had no choice but to be a little cautious. Don't worry, Master. I won't forget the debt I owe you for saving my life."

Er Chun became solemn when he saw Gu Yu. Although his cultivation was lower compared to Master Gu Yu, he was not fearful of Gu Yu as he came from the Mysterious Heavenly Palace.

At this moment, Gu Yu also noticed Er Chun's presence and smiled at him. "Oh, Brother Er Chun is here as well. You've rendered a great service for the Mysterious Heavenly Palace!"

The two were sly old foxes, but Zhou Weiqing was also a crafty youngster himself. Although only a few simple words were said, the underlying meanings were all laid bare. Zhou Weiqing had placated Gu Yan's heart, while Gu Yan indicated to Er Chun that he would not be touching Zhou Weiqing

Er Chun then smiled as he said to Gu Yu,"Old Brother Gu Yu, you saved the God Tier Master's life? What's that about?"

Zhou Weiqing chuckled as he explained, "I was out at sea with my wife to kill some sea creatures to collect Nucleus Core so that we can make Consolidated Equipment Liquid. We didn't expect to encounter the Dreadfiend Sea Naga. We almost lost our lives. Fortunately, we ran into Master Gu Yu and managed to survive. Without him, I might not be here today."

"However, a person's strength is limited. To study how to go about making a Legendary Set, a significant amount of financial resources are needed. I suppose only the Mysterious Heavenly Palace has the financial ability to help me."

"Legendary Set?" Gu Yu and Er Chun said in unison. Shangguang Bing'er watched the two old men gulping at practically the same time.

Zhou Weiqing smiled lightly. "I've just entered the God Tier Master Level recently. The materials to make the Consolidated Equipment Liquid is just too rare. My cultivation is being slowed down because of it."

Er Chun instantly understood what Zhou Weiqing was trying to say. "Rest assured, Master. The Mysterious Heavenly Palace will provide you with the best and give you the best treatment. Furthermore, You're a God Tier Master so you won't be restricted in any way."

Gu Yu sighed in his heart. He knew that it was too late for him to say anything now. Fortunately, Zhou Weiqing still remembered him saving his life. He thought about it and decided to curb his desire for the Legendary Set. There was still plenty of time for him to bring up the topic in the future. Even if he asked, Zhou Weiqing might not be able to do much as he had just gotten to the God Tier Master Level. It would be wiser to talk to him after he had settled down in the Mysterious Heavenly Palace.In any case, Zhou Weiqing owed him his life, which he would have to repay one day eventually.

Both Er Chun and Gu Yu did not want to leave so they stayed on making small talk. They only left when Zhou Weiqing said that he was going to cultivate. Er Chun promised to pick Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er up and send them to the Mysterious Heavenly Palace headquarters to participate in the finals.

Zhou Weiqing had no idea what sort of methods the Mysterious Heavenly Palace used to deliver letters, only that it seemed extremely advanced. When Er Chun picked them up the next morning, he told them that the Mysterious Heavenly Palace had already replied his letter and ordered him to protect Zhou Weiqing and his wife. He was also ordered to get Sang Tan, the Ubaatar mayor, to keep the appearance of a God Tier Master a secret.

A luxurious carriage with eight horses was prepared exclusively for Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er. Besides that, eight people from the Mysterious Heavenly Palace including Er Chun were sent to escort them. It could be said that the Mysterious Heavenly Palace went all out for them as these people were elites from the Mysterious Heavenly Palace who were in Ubaatar City. After resolving things with Zhou Weiqing, Er Chun now had Zhou Weiqing's safety as his number one priority. Putting aside the question of whether he would gain anything from Zhou Weiqing, being able to send a God Tier Master to the headquarter was considered a great service.

The carriage was so wide it could easily fit 10 people. The interior was covered in leather, and the carpet was made from the fur of some Heavenly Beast. Inside, there was a bed, a seat and a table filled with food. The carriage was even better than the one which he rode at the Heavenly Bow Unit. Zhou Weiqing chuckled as they got on the carriage. "This Er Chun sure knows how to enjoy life. This is such a treat."

Chapter 691

Was there anyone that disliked traveling in comfort? Even though they were traveling in such a comfortable carriage, this would affect their cultivation and training. Zhou Weiqing was close to breaking through to 37-tier Saint Energy, therefore he would naturally not let go of this precious opportunity here.

Under the protection of Er Chun and the others, apart from Ubataar City, they would travel straight to the center of the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland. According to Er Chun, it would take 15 to 20 days to get to Heavenly City.

He took really good care of Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er throughout the entire journey. He would feed them with delicious food from the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland. Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er enjoyed the food and the beautiful scenery as they spent the rest of their time practicing. Traveling in the carriage was much more comfortable than traveling in the Neptune.

In order to send them to their location in the fastest possible time, Er Chun and the rest barely had any time to rest because they were constantly on the road. Once in a while, they would stop at a checkpoint to change the horses.

It did not affect Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er much. However, it was tiring for the Heavenly Jewel Masters who were protecting them. Thanks to their cultivation, they were able to hold up pretty well.

Using just 14 days, they arrived at their destination. "Master, we're entering Heavenly City soon." Er Chun spoke from the outside of the carriage.

"Yes." Zhou Weiqing gave a short response as he flipped the curtain aside to look out of the window. He could see the skyline of the city. Compared to Zhongtian City, Heavenly City was much smaller let alone compare to the unique existence of the Heavenly Jewel Island. However, compared to most of the cities that he had been to, it could still be considered a big city, similar in structure to Fei Li City.

Zhou Weiqing had been a little annoyed for the past few days. He could feel that his Saint Energy was on the verge of breaking through when he arrived at the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland. But during his cultivation in the past few days, he felt as though he was stuck in a bottleneck as he did not manage a breakthrough. He started to miss the days when he was practicing the Immortal Deity Technique. Although it was hard, the speed of breaking through was fast.

Still, he had been cultivating diligently even though there were no signs of a breakthrough yet. Most Importantly, there was no set cultivation method for this Saint Energy, so he had no idea how he could break through to the next level. All he could do was to continue cultivating. It was just the first tier of Saint Energy since he entered the Ninth Jewel, and yet, it was already so difficult to breakthrough. Naturally, his mind wandered toward the difficulty of forming a Saint Nucleus Core.

Although he was annoyed while he was troubled by it, there was nothing that he could do. Shangguan Bing'er had comforted him a few times over this matter. After all, he was already at the Ninth Jewel. It was the same for any Jewel Master. The path of cultivating beyond this tier would definitely slow down eventually. Otherwise, why would the number of Ninth Jewel Heavenly Jewel Masters outnumber the Heavenly King Masters?

Er Chun got closer on his horse and said to Zhou Weiqing, "Master, would you prefer to head directly to the Mysterious Heavenly Palace or would you prefer to rest somewhere else first?"

Zhou Weiqing stared at him as he responded, "Why would we head to the Mysterious Heavenly Palace right now? It's not the time for the finals, wouldn't it be bad to enter so casually?"

'You're a God Tier Master, why would you even join the Mysterious Heavenly Selection finals?' Er Chun thought to himself but he did not dare to contradict Zhou Weiqing. Since they had already arrived at Heavenly City, Er Chun was close to completing his mission, and with that, he nodded his head.

Upon entering Heavenly City, they checked into a luxurious hotel. Er Chun did not dare to rest as he ordered his men to protect Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er in the hotel while he went to the Mysterious Heavenly Palace.

The luxurious room was quite spacious at 200 square meters. The amenities were sophisticated as well. Zhou Weiqing leaned on the soft leather couch while he was deep in thought.

Meanwhile, Shangguan Bing'er looked out the window. This place was a Human World after all. There weren't many places that were that different compared to the Boundless Mainlands.

Shangguan Bing'er turned around and asked Zhou Weiqing, "Little Fatty, what do we do next?"

Under the bright sunlight, she was bathed in a golden light. Zhou Weiqing could not help but be mesmerized by her as he gestured for her to come over.

Shangguan Bing'er walked to the couch and fell into his arms. Zhou Weiqing spoke to her in a low voice. "Bing'er, we'll have to be careful whenever we talk. I don't have any specific plans. For now, we'll just have to play it by ear. Our priority is to get into the Mysterious Heavenly Palace."

Shangguan Bing'er looked at him doubtfully. "In that case, why did you reject Er Chun when he said he wanted to send us directly into the palace?"

Zhou Weiqing smiled as he said, "It's not valuable if it's free. We'll have to play hard to get so that people will respect us. Don't worry. Er Chun has already left to inform the palace of our arrival, hasn't he? I'm sure there'll be people coming to see us soon."

Shangguan Bing'er burst out laughing. "You're such a scammer." Shortly after, her smiling face tensed up a little.

"Little Fatty, promise me. Don't risk your life doing anything dangerous, no matter what, okay?"

Zhou Weiqing did not reply her but just kissed her lips instead. On that cozy couch, he pulled her slender body deeper into his embrace.

An hour later, Er Chun's voice came from the other side of the door. "Master."

By that time, Zhou Weiqing had already taken a shower and changed into his clean clothes. At the moment, Shangguan Bing'er was peeling fruits to feed him. "Come in," he said slowly.

Er Chun opened the door and walked into the room. However, he only took a step in and gestured invitingly with his hands as he stepped aside.

Following his gesture, a tall old man walked in. The old man was more than two meters in height. Even though he looked old with his white hair, his posture was good and his back was straight. His muscles made his clothes looked tight. In fact, he looked energetic and did not seem any weaker than a younger person.

He was wearing the blue robe of the Mysterious Heavenly Palace, but Zhou Weiqing noticed there was a golden sun logo on the left side of his chest. It was clear that this man held a much higher position than Er Chun did in the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. Moreover, the power that he exuded was greater than Er Chun's.

Zhou Weiqing remained seated on the couch, he did not have the intention of rising up to welcome them personally. The old man stared at him. His eyes were like two sharp swords piercing into Zhou Weiqing's eyes as a repressive aura was locked onto Zhou Weiqing's body immediately.

Zhou Weiqing continued eating fruits like he was unaffected by the old man's aura. The aura seemed like it meant nothing to him at all.

The old man ignored Zhou Weiqing and asked Er Chun, "Hmm, you're really got some capabilities. Er Chun, this is the God Tier Master that you told me about?" His voice was deep and it had an intense vibration that echoed in one's ears.

"Yes, Elder. Master, let me introduce you to Elder Fei Lun. He's one of the 12 Elders of the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. He's responsible for foreign affairs."

Zhou Weiqing nodded and pointed at the couch next to him. "Elder, please take a seat."

Fei Lun waved his hand while Er Chun backed off and closed the door. He then walked to the couch opposite of Zhou Weiqing and sat down. He had retracted his intense aura from before.

"Young man, Er Chun told me that you're a God Tier Master?"

Zhou Weiqing nodded. He remained aloof while he proceeded to eat the fruits that Shangguan Bing'er peeled for him.

Fei Lun had anger in his eyes as he said, "You're only a young brat. Aren't you afraid of biting off more than you can chew?"

Zhou Weiqing glared at him and grinned. "Ambition and capability aren't determined by age. Even if I gave you a hundred years, you'd have lived your life for naught if you've got no ambitions." When he said the latter half of the sentence, he made a deliberate insinuation at the Elder.

With Zhou Weiqing's Saint Energy cultivation, he could tell from the aura that Fei Lun released earlier that he was at the upper level of the Heavenly King Stage. However, it was still quite far off from the maximum level.

Fei Lun looked even angrier after listening to Zhou Weiqing's words. Regardless, he was an Elder of the Mysterious Heavenly Palace, not someone whose status could be compared to that of Er Chun. "I'm sure you know the penalty of deceiving the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. Of course, if you can prove that you're a God Tier Master, let alone me, the Supreme Elders, heck, even the Palace Master will welcome you with open arms."

Zhou Weiqing smiled lightly. "With that said. Elder, are you're here to test if I'm really a God Tier Master?"

Fei Lun nodded, he had no interest in beating around the bush.

Zhou Weiqing laughed out loud. "You want to do it here? It seems the Mysterious Heavenly Palace doesn't know the proper way of welcoming a guest, eh? So how do I prove myself? Will making a God Tier Master Level Consolidated Equipment Scroll be enough?"

"Of course," Fei Lun replied.

Zhou Weiqing scoffed coldly and stood up. "If that's the case, Elder Fei Lun you can leave now. We're not participating the Mysterious Heavenly Palace Selection Test anymore. Bing'er, let's go."

Fei Lun was stunned that Zhou Weiqing's attitude did not even change in the least. Hurriedly, he stood up and questioned them. "What do you mean by this?!"

Zhou Weiqing scoffed once more in disdain. "As a Consolidating Equipment Master, making a Consolidated Equipment Scroll doesn't only require materials and papers, the environment is crucial too. The thicker the Atmospheric Energy of a place, the easier it is to make Consolidated Equipment Scroll. I believe that you should know of these requirements, right?" He did not even bother to address him as Elder anymore.

Fei Lun nodded instantly. Although he was not a Consolidating Equipment Master, he knew a thing or two about Consolidating Equipment Masters.

Zhou Weiqing laughed coldly once more. "Elder, since you knew that, why would you ask me to make a God Tier Master Level Consolidated Equipment Scroll here? Is this the Mysterious Heavenly Palace's way of showing their sincerity? If I had enough materials to make a God Tier Master Level Consolidated Equipment Scroll, why would I have come to the Mysterious Heavenly Palace?"

"This…" Fei Lun was speechless as he frowned. "You should know that you don't have to go through any assessment to enter the Mysterious Heavenly Palace if you're really a God Tier Master. We'll treat you as our guest of honor and treat you with respect as well. That said, we'll still need you to prove that you're a God Tier Master no matter what."

Chapter 692

Zhou Weiqing let out a smile as he looked at Fei Lun. However, that expression turned cold almost immediately.

"You're not worthy of witnessing the making of a God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll. Tell your Palace Master that if he wants to test me out, we can do that, sure. I'm a reasonable person. Since I came all the way here, I'll definitely show my sincerity. But do you really think that you'll be able to tell if I made the God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll myself based on your ability alone? With my skill, I can easily switch it to another one. I'll give you a list. Go back and prepare them. Pick a place in the Mysterious Heavenly Palace that's suitable for scroll making and bring your best Consolidated Equipment Master. Only a Consolidated Equipment Master is eligible to test another Consolidated Equipment Master."

Zhou Weiqing flipped his hand as he spoke and a piece of paper landed in his hand. He picked up the quill that was prepared by the hotel and started writing. Soon, the paper was filled with all the materials required to make the Consolidated Equipment Scroll.

After writing them down, he passed the paper to Fei Lun. "You can leave now," he said casually.

Although Fei Lun was not pleased with Zhou Weiqing's attitude, he did not show his temper. Whether or not the young man who was standing in front of him was a real God Tier Master, his attitude was definitely similar to one. Looking at him, he might really be what he claimed to be. Although Fei Lun was an Elder in the palace, he did not dare to offend Zhou Weiqing in case he was a real God Tier Master. As a person who held a high position in Mysterious Heavenly Palace, he had to think about his family and disciples as well as the many Consolidated Equipment Scrolls that were coming his way!

"Alright. If that's the case, please give me some time to prepare, Master. I'll report to the Palace Master as you've requested." Fei Lun nodded to Zhou Weiqing and left.

As soon as the door was shut, Shangguan Bing'er could barely continue to maintain her smile.. She was about to say something, but Zhou Weiqing gestured for her to keep quiet with his finger as he said to her telepathically, "Do not speak. The walls have ears.."

Shangguan Bing'er stuck out her cute, little tongue at him. Looking at Zhou Weiqing, her eyes blossomed with love. Her little fatty was really capable. Ever since they came to the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland, Zhou Weiqing had been coming up with plans and solving problems along the way without panicking at all. He would deal with anything that came their way, without feeling the need to hurry or rush. Shangguan Bing'er acknowledged in her heart that if it was her, she would not be able to do what Zhou Weiqing had done. Looking at that confident disposition of the love of her life, her love for him grew even deeper. It felt like as long as she was with him, there was nothing that she would have to worry about even if they were in dangerous situations.

Of course, Zhou Weiqing could not possibly have everything under his control. However, Mu En had taught him since he was young that, in order to be a true lowlife, he would have to always think that he was right no matter what. He should not admit it even if he was exposed. Because of that mentality, Zhou Weiqing managed to live a prosperous life in the Boundless Mainland. Although the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland could be considered as a whole other world for them, Zhou Weiqing was different from who he used to be as well. With his Saint Energy, he had sufficient power and ability to face whatever situation he encountered with the utmost confidence. And with that sense of confidence, the enemies would definitely not be able to see through his weaknesses.

They spent the rest of the day resting in the hotel room. After that, he even brought Shangguan Bing'er out to try the local delicacies in Heaven City.

The food was very different from the cuisine of the Boundless Mainland. For example, the food in Heaven City was heavier and spicier compared to the Boundless Mainland. Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er enjoyed themselves with the food. After they were done eating, they walked around a little and purchased some cheap and worthless craft pieces.

Naturally, there were people following them when they were out. It seemed like they were protecting him, but in reality, they were watching him. However, the people from the Mysterious Heavenly Palace had no idea why the God Tier Master would buy crafts that even they would not bother looking at. Of course, they had no idea that Zhou Weiqing was buying gifts for his family. After all, he was in a foreign land. Would the wives who were waiting for him at home forgive him if he did not bring anything back for them?

The Mysterious Heavenly Palace sent someone to see them again on the third morning of their arrival.

It was Fei Lun again, but Er Chun was nowhere to be seen. It was possible that he had returned to Ubaatar City.

"Master, we're done preparing the stuff you requested. At your behest." Upon meeting with Zhou Weiqing, Fei Lun did not wish to waste time on any incessant chatter as he got straight to the point.

The materials that Zhou Weiqing requested earlier had brought a lot of trouble to the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. It was difficult for the powerful Mysterious Heavenly Palace to look for so many precious materials. Although the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland had many things that were considered precious and rare in the Boundless Mainland, the items were still expensive even if they were not rare in the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland.

Zhou Weiqing nodded at Fei Lun and brought Shangguan Bing'er to leave the hotel with him.

The carriage was already waiting outside. However, upon boarding the carriage, Zhou Weiqing was surprised that the carriage was not heading into the city. Instead, it was leaving Heavenly City.

As the saying goes, the strong fear nothing. Zhou Weiqing was not afraid since he was powerful.

Fei Lun was riding in the same carriage and seated right across Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er. From time to time, he would cast his gaze at Zhou Weiqing.

If it was someone other than Zhou Weiqing, that person would have felt uncomfortable and unnerved being watched by a Heavenly King Master. However, Zhou Weiqing was an exception. Fei Lun could watch all he wanted. From time to time, Zhou Weiqing would even kiss Shangguan Bing'er's soft cheeks as he shot looks of taunt over back at Fei Lun.

Fei Lun pretended that he did not see anything. He did not even speak to Zhou Weiqing throughout the journey.

After about two hours plus into the journey, it felt like they were going on a higher terrain. Even though he did not look out of the window, Zhou Weiqing could feel that the carriage was going up a mountain. There were many guards along the path, but once they saw the carriage was from the Mysterious Heavenly Palace, they were instantly granted access.

'Is the Mysterious Heavenly Palace located outside of Tian City?' Zhou Weiqing thought to himself. However, his expression did not change at all.

The carriage finally stopped moving after about an hour later. Fei Lun descended from the carriage after he nodded at Zhou Weiqing. Following which, he opened up the carriage doors for him personally.

Zhou Weiqing descended next, followed by Shangguan Bing'er. When they got out of the carriage, they were stunned by the sight in front of them.

They were looking at the beautiful scenery in a valley surrounded by greens. Various plants could be seen and there were even valuable plants among them. Because they were in a valley surrounded by flowers, light, flowery fragrance could be detected in the air. It was very refreshing.

Zhou Weiqing could sense more than 20 auras within this valley alone. There were at least two Heavenly King Masters among them. Anyone could tell the place was important to the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. However, it was obvious that this was not the palace itself.

Everything in the valley could be seen in a glance. There was only a cottage in the middle of the valley and three simple wooden houses that could accommodate up to eight people at the most. How could this be the headquarters of the Mysterious Heavenly Palace?

Fei Lun started speaking when he noticed Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er's curious expressions. "We have two God Tier Masters who reside here on a permanent basis. Didn't Master Zhou ask for a place that's suitable to make Consolidated Equipment Scrolls? I've given it some thought and decided that this is the best place. With that, I decided to invite you over, Master. Everything you need is in there."

Zhou Weiqing nodded and attempted to walk to the cottage, but he was stopped by Fei Lun.

Zhou Weiqing looked at Fei Lun in bewilderment while Fei Lun returned his look with solemn eyes. "I've heard about everything Master Zhou did back in Ubaatar City. Even if Master Zhou is not a God Tier Master, the fact that you managed to create a Master Level Consolidated Equipment Scroll proves that you're still an exceptional talent. So, there's still time for you to take back your words. It'll be too late if you can't prove that you're a God Tier Master after stepping into the cottage."

What he meant was obvious. If Zhou Weiqing admitted that he was not a God Tier Master, the Mysterious Heavenly Palace would still accept him by virtue of his talent. However, once he stepped into the cottage and still could not prove that he was a God Tier Master, no matter how talented he was, the Mysterious Heavenly Palace would not let him go alive.

Zhou Weiqing smiled and did not say a word. He pushed away Fei Lun's hand that was blocking his way and ran towards the cottage while pulling Shangguan Bing'er along.

Fei Lun could not hide the surprise on his face as he watched them. He thought to himself, 'Could it be that this young man really is a God Tier Master?' If that was true, he would be an unparalleled genius that had never once appeared in the history of Consolidated Equipment Masters!

According to Fei Lun's knowledge, the youngest God Tier Master on the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland was over 50 years old. In fact, that was only someone who had existed in the books of history. Could it be…?

Time did not allow him to think further. As Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er arrived at the cottage door, Fei Lun caught up to them hurriedly while the rest were left outside. None of them were allowed in.

When they were standing in front of the cottage, Zhou Weiqing's cold perception rose. He could clearly sense that there were two humans in the cottage. What shocked him was the fact that he could not sense their cultivation level.

Although they had yet to meet, his cold perception was extremely sensitive with the help of Saint Energy. With even the slightest disturbance, he would be able to sense the presence of a Heavenly Jewel Master. If he couldn't sense the cultivation levels of those within, this could only mean one thing. The two people in the cottage were at least at the maximum level of the Heavenly King Stage.

In fact, they could be even higher than that.

Chapter 693

It was too late to walk away now. Even if he was afraid of the two Heavenly God Tier powerhouses in the cottage, Zhou Weiqing had to summon the courage to enter anyway. Zhou Weiqing's gaze met Shangguan Bing'er's as he squeezed her tiny hand and pulled her along. The wooden door was light and opened from a light touch.The room was illuminated brightly. Sunlight and the aroma of flowers entered the room through windows from all four directions.

The first thing Zhou Weiqing noticed when entering the cottage was a table.The table was long, around 10 meters in length and stretched from one end of the room to the other. He could tell right away that the table was made from an entire slab of yellow rosewood. The yellow rosewood was also known as the Dalbergia. The wood had a unique fragrance that was beneficial towards the Consolidating Ink. It also increased the success rate of creating Consolidated Equipment Scrolls by 10%. The yellow rosewood was considered a precious material by Consolidated Equipment Masters.

There were two individuals seated at the table, and their gazes were both on Zhou Weiqing. The one who was sitting on the left looked like he was in his eighties. He had silver hair and the wrinkles on his face could kill flies. His eyes were as clear as a baby's. So clear, it seemed like he could see through a person's soul. Zhou Weiqing felt an immense pressure just by meeting his gaze. Fortunately, he had recently raised his Spiritual Energy, so he could still maintain his composure.

The old man's appearance did not surprise Zhou Weiqing. Consolidated Equipment Masters worked hard their entire lives to get to where they were. It was normal to see Consolidated Equipment Masters who were advanced in age. Of course, there were some who managed to find treasures that helped them maintain a youthful look.

However, the person who was sitting next to the old man surprised Zhou Weiqing. She was a woman who looked around 26 or 27 years old. Most importantly, Zhou Weiqing could sense that the woman was genuinely young. After all, a person's vitality could not be faked. It was obvious her youthful appearance did not come from any treasure.

Zhou Weiqing could not sense their cultivation levels at all. It proved that their cultivation levels were really high. The woman surprised him the most. He was sure that she was no more than 30 years old, but her cultivation was at least that of a Heavenly King Tier powerhouse. How did she manage to cultivate to the Heavenly King Stage at such a young age? No matter how many strange situations he had encountered, he had never met anyone who had managed to cultivate to the Heavenly King Stage before the age of 30.

Leaving her cultivation aside, she possessed a unique charm. Zhou Weiqing had seen many beautiful women in his life. In fact, all of his lady friends were beautiful. However, the woman before him gave him a very different feeling. If he had to say who she resembled, he would say that the beautiful woman before him was a combination of Shangguan Xue'er and Princess Cai Cai. She had Princess Cai Cai's honor and majestic presence combined together with Shangguan Xue'er's remarkable beauty. Shangguan Bing'er was beautiful, but she seemed to lack the unique charm that this woman possessed.

The woman had a frown on her face as she coughed lightly. It seemed like she did not like being stared at, and that was a cue for Zhou Weiqing to stop staring.

Zhou Weiqing let out an embarrassed smile. "Pardon my manners. My lady, you're just too beautiful." He did not hide his admiration towards her at all as he nodded. Shangguan Bing'er, who was standing at his side, glared at him. She thought to herself that following him here was definitely the right decision. If she had not done so, Zhou Weiqing might bring a couple of ladies back with him from his trip to the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland.

The woman replied in a dull manner. "I'm sure you're not here just to compliment me. I agree with one thing that you've said. Only a God Tier Master has the right to test another God Tier Master. With that being said, please demonstrate your skills."

Zhou Weiqing chuckled. "Aren't the both of you going to introduce yourselves? Isn't that a little rude?"

The old man next to the woman smiled. "I've been in the in Consolidated Domain for nearly 100 years, but I've never heard of the Strength Legacy before. If you're capable, you will eventually know who we are. If you fail the test, then knowing who we are would be redundant."

Zhou Weiqing smiled. "I remember telling Elder Fei Lun that age doesn't matter if you have a purpose in life. Even if you live to a hundred, your life would be empty if you don't have any ambition. Just because you've not heard of it before, it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist."

The old man's eyes widened a little, but his voice remained calm. "Young man, are you challenging me?"

Zhou Weiqing laughed out loud and glared at him. "So what if I am?"

The old man nodded. "It's been years since anyone dared to speak to me like that. If you are able to make a God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll, whatever you've just said will hold weight. Otherwise, you'll face the consequences."

Zhou Weiqing had been observing the two individuals sitting in front of him. He had been using this method of aggravation to see if their temperaments would change.. There was no doubt that the both of them were the God Tier Masters of the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. If he managed to get into the palace, these two would play an important role in his mission to obtain the Spatial Teleportation Stone. He noticed that the old man would occasionally look at the woman as he spoke. Zhou Weiqing was an astute person. He could tell that the woman was the leader among the two of them.

"Let's start." That was all the woman said as she pointed to the Spatial Ring on the yellow rosewood table. Shangguan Bing'er shut the door obediently. Although her cultivation was not as high was Zhou Weiqing's, she had Saint Energy in her and had recently raised her Spirit Energy, so she was not too bothered by the faint power the duo in front of her emitted.

Zhou Weiqing picked up the Spatial Ring on the table and he sensed all of the items in there. His eyes lit up. The values of items in the ring could not be even be considered in terms of gold coins! He closed his eyes and fell into a trance as he stood there. There was a saying, an expert would prove himself just by raising one hand. The old man and woman revealed a look of surprise as soon as Zhou Weiqing closed his eyes. They could clearly sense that Zhou Weiqing had entered the Unity of Heaven and Man. At the moment, he was attuned to his surroundings.

It sounded simple, but it was something that was difficult to achieve. In order to be a Heavenly King Stage powerhouse and a God Tier Master, one had to be able to enter the Unity of Heaven and Man. After all, there could not be any distractions in the process of creating a God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll. Without the Unity of Heaven and Man, it was impossible to make a God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll. That was one of the reasons why a God Tier Master had to at least be at the Heavenly King Stage.

As soon as Zhou Weiqing walked in, the two powerhouses could clearly sense that he only had Fifth Jewel cultivation. That was the reason why they found it hard to believe that Zhou Weiqing was a God Tier Master. However, as soon as he entered the Unity of Heaven and Man mode, the expressions of the two God Tier Masters finally changed. A person who could enter the Unity of Heaven and Man with only Fifth Jewel was more than a genius. He could be considered a prodigy of his generation!

A foot-wide crystal vat appeared before Zhou Weiqing. His shut eyes opened gradually. There were no impurities in his eyes, only boundless determination. At that moment, the other three people in the house had different opinions on Consolidated Equipment Masters. Shangguan Bing'er was watching quietly from the side. Her reaction remained unchanged even after Zhou Weiqing had opened his eyes. Meanwhile, the two God Tier Masters were constricting their aura. They were trying to make themselves as inconsequential as specks of dust in the room. It was to minimize elements that could possibly affect Zhou Weiqing.

That was the tacit understanding among Consolidated Equipment Masters. However, only God Tier Masters would be able to constrict their aura to such a degree. What surprised them was that Shangguan Bing'er constricted her aura as well when she felt them constricting their aura. Just like Zhou Weiqing, she could enter the Unity of Heaven and Man with ease.

In reality, the Saint Energy was the reason why both Zhou Weiqing and Shangguan Bing'er managed to enter the Unity of Heaven and Man, even though it should only be possible for Heavenly King Stage powerhouses to enter it. As the most powerful attribute on heaven and earth, the Saint Energy in their bodies allowed them to attune themselves to all environments because their bodies had dominance over all environments and attributes.

Although the two God Tier Masters were surprised, their faces remained inscrutable as they fixed their attention on Zhou Weiqing. Suddenly, Zhou Weiqing started moving. As he flipped his right hand over, three ingredients tumbled out of the Spatial Ring that he had picked up. The three ingredients were all plants. A red fruit, a thin black vine, and a strand of green plant.

As soon as the three items appeared, Zhou Weiqing waved his left hand in the air. A silver glow flashed and transformed into a silver plate. It seemed like it was meant for the three items. However, as soon as the items landed on the plate, they melted immediately like snow. A layer of powder combined with juice was all that remained on the silver plate. The snow-like powder was so fine that it almost could not be seen with naked eyes.

Chapter 694

Such great control! The old man and the woman could not hide how impressed they were when they saw Zhou Weiqing's skills. As God Tier Masters, they also possessed Spatial Attribute, so they were able to identify the Spatial Rend that he was performing. Not everyone was able to have such a meticulous mastery over their skills to the extent that not a single material was wasted. At that moment, they gained a deeper understanding towards Zhou Weiqing. This young man who called himself the Strength Legacy must have possessed powerful Soul Energy. Otherwise, he would not have been able to achieve such control over everything.

Later on, two minerals appeared in his hands. One was blue and the other was purple. They were both the size of his fist.

Zhou Weiqing held them both in his hands as he slowly exhaled. What happened next startled the two God Tier Masters.

The sleeves on Zhou Weiqing's clothes suddenly exploded! The cloth scattered everywhere, revealing his muscular arms. The lines of his muscles were so defined that the ladies would swoon if they if saw it.

As he flexed his muscles and clenched his fist, the two hard minerals cracked in his fists.

The woman's eyes widened as she thought to herself, 'What kind of super strength is that? Is this person even human?' She clearly recognized the two minerals. The blue one was a blue crystal stone while the purple one was a purple devil stone. She was aware that both stones were extremely hard, but Zhou Weiqing managed to crush it using only his body's strength. It was a little terrifying.

At the same time, a one-foot tall green vortex appeared before Zhou Weiqing. It was jade green in color. Even though it was small, anyone could tell that it was formed by a high compression of Wind Attribute. The color was refreshing just like the greeneries under the sunlight.

Zhou Weiqing placed both his hands on top of the vortex and dropped the crushed stones into it. Under the terrifying force of the vortex, the crushed stones turned into powder and were sent out from the vortex.

Shangguan Bing'er who was standing at the side was puzzled. A Spatial Rend could also make a fine powder to a similar effect!! Why did Zhou Weiqing use a different way to make it?

She was not a Consolidated Equipment Master. Naturally, she could not understand the reason behind his action. However, the doubt that the two God Tier Masters initially had towards Zhou Weiqing was gradually decreasing. Of course, there was a reason why Zhou Weiqing did this. It was due to his knowledge of the materials. It would not cause any problems for him to turn plants, fruits, and vines into a fine powder with Spatial Attribute. After all, these were things that had once possessed some sort of life within them.

However, the two minerals were a different matter. If he used the Spatial Rend of Spatial Attribute to mill the two minerals into a fine powder, the Spatial Energy might affect the minerals and cause it to lose its original effect. How was it possible for a God Tier Master to make such a mistake?

When Zhou Weiqing's sleeves exploded earlier, the two God Tier Masters saw the Heavenly Jewel's attribute on both of his arms. They saw a shiny rose color Strength Jewel on his right hand.

Naturally, the power of his right arm did not come across as much of a surprise. However, their eyes lit up when they saw the Alexandrite Cat's Eye Heavenly Jewel on his left hand.

It was an Alexandrite Cat's Eye, an Alexandrite Cat's Eye! An Alexandrite Cat's Eye was a symbol that signified a person possessed at least four types of Heavenly Jewel attribute. The precious stone was bluish-green under sunlight. However, it would turn rosy red at night or when there was no light. At the moment, there was no sunlight in the house since the sunlight was only shining through the window, so the stone was rosy red in color.

The two God Tier Masters who had initially thought Zhou Weiqing was full of himself had a solemn expression on their face now. Whether Zhou Weiqing was a real God Tier Master or not, the fact that he possessed more than four Heavenly Jewel attribute gave him the right to be proud. Moreover, he looked like he was only in his 20s. Even if he was not a God Tier Master, he was definitely a peerless genius on the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland.

Under the bright light which was emanating from the Heavenly Jewels on both his hands, the five materials with five colors merged with each other. Zhou Weiqing did not stop as more and more valuable materials appeared from his Spatial Ring.

On the surface, it might seem like he was moving fast. However, if one were to look closely, there was a unique rhythm in his movement. As new materials appeared, one could see that there was a strict sequence to it and the way he ground them into a fine powder. In the end, the crystal vat was halfway filled with exactly 42 materials.

When he was done, Zhou Weiqing picked up the crystal vat slowly. Rich Heavenly Energy was infused into the vat from both his palms as it merged with the 42 materials that were in powder and liquid form. They were merging together with the help of the Heavenly Energy.

Suddenly, Zhou Weiqing closed his eyes again. This time, it felt like he transformed himself into an enormous vat. His own aura covered the mixture in the crystal vat, preventing the aura in the crystal vat from escaping.

By now, the focus of the two God Tier Masters was fixated and firm. Each God Tier Master had their own unique methods of making the Consolidated Equipment Scrolls. Consolidating Ink could also be formed by varying proportions of ingredients. As Zhou Weiqing was mixing the Consolidating Ink, they tried their best to memorize all the sequences and methods which Zhou Weiqing had used. It was their first time seeing such a combination. They had no doubts that the Consolidating Ink would turn out to be something they had never seen before. The Consolidated Equipment Scroll must be at a high-level judging by the many materials that the Consolidating Ink needed.

Zhou Weiqing was still inserting more Heavenly Energy into the vat while his motions were getting slower. The Consolidating Ink in the crystal vat started to swirl, forming a small vortex. A light glow gradually radiated from the inside of the vat, and it was growing. The light silver glow looked like silver liquid. However, there was a sense of menace in the light silver glow. Although it was not emitting any aura, the two God Tier Masters could sense a tinge of maniacal energy from the glow.

Finally, Zhou Weiqing stopped what he was doing when he held the crystal vat above his head. Suddenly, his eyes burst open at that moment, and he yelled loudly.

An intense silver beam shot out of the crystal vat and transformed into a silver flame. Then, it shot up to the roof and into the sky. A strong fragrance suddenly appeared.

Apart from the four individuals in the cottage, even the powerhouses from the Mysterious Heavenly Palace who were keeping watch outside could smell the pleasant fragrance.

The fragrance smelled like it could awaken one's soul. Moreover, everyone who smelled it felt like all the pores in their bodies had opened up. It was an odd feeling as even the Heavenly Energy in their body was stronger than usual. Of course, that only lasted for a little while. The fragrance faded as soon as the silver flame disappeared.

The powerhouses from the Mysterious Heavenly Palace were indifferent to what had just happened. There were always peculiar things happening in the cottage. Their job was just to keep watch and prevent anybody from going in. They were not allowed to interfere with the people in the cottage.

As the silver flame in the crystal vat that Zhou Weiqing was holding disappeared, the three individuals in the cottage could finally have a clearer look at what happened. The mixture originally filled up half of the vat. However, at that moment, there was only a little bit of the mixture left at the bottom of the vat. The light silver liquid looked like beautiful galaxy river, and it was difficult to remove one's gaze away from it.

The two God Tier Masters heaved in a breath of cold air when they saw Zhou Weiqing had successfully made a Consolidating Ink for a Consolidated Equipment Scroll. The entire process only took less than half an hour. They were all God Tier Masters. In fact, the old man had been a God Tier Master for over 40 years now! However, if he were to reflect upon himself, he knew that he would not be able to come up with a Consolidating Ink with so many materials as fast as Zhou Weiqing did. If there were even a single tiny mistake, the entire vat of previous materials would go to waste. The materials were not cheap! The vat of materials was worth at least millions of gold coins, and some of them could not be obtained regardless of how much money one had.

Zhou Weiqing was secretly relieved. Of course, he was not a real God Tier Master. Well, at least he was not one before today. However, he possessed the Saint Energy which gave him the ability to perform that feat.

Theoretically, he had known all along how to make a God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll. Because he was a potential heir to the Strength Legacy. When he was on the Boundless Mainland, Duan Tianlang taught him the ways to make a Ringless Ground Purging Set. After all, Duan Tianlang did not know when he would die.

However, this was the first time Zhou Weiqing attempted to create a God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll. Although he had a great rhythm when he was mixing the materials, in reality, there were a ton of loopholes in his sequences. If the two God Tier Masters were to try and emulate his method, they would not be able to successfully copy him even if it took them the rest of their lives.

At the end of the day, the presence of his Saint Energy was the reason why the materials merged perfectly. As Zhou Weiqing was infusing Heavenly Energy into the vat, he was already mixing in his Saint Energy the moment the materials in the vat turned silver.

Chapter 695

No matter what procedural or pacing mistakes he had made in the past, with the help of the Saint Energy, all the natural treasures submitted to him. Under such situation, fusing them together was naturally a lot easier.

A dim light shimmered and Zhou Weiqing smiled faintly. He looked at the Consolidating Ink in the crystal vat. At the very least, the first step had been completed, and everything else went the way he had expected them to.

He did not immediately continue with the production for if that were the case, it would not match his Five-Jewel cultivation base.

Zhou Weiqing sat on the floor and crossed his legs. He then began focusing on cultivating his Immortal Deity Technique. It gave an impression to the other two that he was recovering his Heavenly Energy.

The two God Tier Masters found it strange. Why didn't Zhou Weiqing store away the precious Consolidating Ink? After all, the more precious the Consolidating Ink was, the faster it volatilized once it was exposed to air. That was why a Consolidating Ink was usually immediately preserved in airtight bottles once it was made.

However, after a short while, they began exclaiming. It was because the silvery Consolidating Ink in the vat showed no signs of becoming volatile at all. Baked in sunlight, that galaxy-like resplendent luster did not show any signs of changing.

"It's that stable?"

The two God Tier Masters looked at each other and exchanged nods. Zhou Weiqing had managed to progress to this stage successfully. Ignoring the fact the could truly be a God Tier Master, he had already passed the assessment from the Mysterious Heavenly Palace even if he wasn't. He was definitely a genius among geniuses in the Consolidated Equipment domain. At the very least, the Mysterious Heavenly Palace had never seen such a powerful genius before!

Faint light coruscated. Zhou Weiqing continued his cultivation for slightly less than an hour before he stood up again. The moment he stood up, he had already entered the Heaven Man Unity state once more.

From the beginning until the end, he had not said a single word. Meanwhile, the two God Tier Masters felt mentally drained from paying absolute attention because they did not want to miss a single one of Zhou Weiqing's actions.

Even God Tier Masters required continuous learning. A God Tier Master that could create an 8-Piece Set of Legendary Suit was completely different from one that could create a 9-Piece Set. For those that could create a 10-Piece Set, those people were indeed considered Legendary God Tier Masters. While for those that could make an Eleven Piece Set, they had not appeared for many years in the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland.

After standing up again, Zhou Weiqing moved the crystal vat to the side. Even such a simple action was firmly memorized by the two God Tier Masters.

Zhou Weiqing took a deep breath, and his eyes instantly turned focused as he flipped his wrists over. A sheet of Consolidated Equipment Paper of the best quality appeared on the yellow rosewood table in front of him. The long table was flat and smooth like a mirror, allowing the Consolidated Equipment Paper to adhere to its surface completely.

The Consolidated Equipment Paper that Zhou Weiqing took out was worth more than a hundred gold coins each but that there was no market for it. The reason was that it needed more than a dozen valuable materials with Spatial Attribute to make it. Even God Tier Masters would not use it casually unless they were very confident. After all, those were things that one could not buy even if one had the money.

Flipping his wrists again, a shiny silver Consolidating Brush appeared in Zhou Weiqing's hand. The moment the Consolidating Brush appeared, the other two God Tier Masters almost could not resist the urge to stand up.

Zhou Weiqing's Consolidating Brush was a foot and two inches long. It had a thin tip, and its body was shiny silver in color. The tip of the pen seemed to be integrated with the shaft. However, the moment the brush appeared, a strong Spatial Attribute aura also appeared. The Spatial Attribute aura condensed around the Consolidating Brush instead of dispersing.

'Highest grade! This is certainly of the highest grade!'

As God Tier Masters, their cultivation bases were above the Heavenly King tier. They could clearly see that the lustrous silver Consolidating Brush in Zhou Weiqing's hand had the Strength Legacy's four ancient seal characters.

"The Strength Legacy actually still exists?"

Of course, they did not know that the Consolidating Brush was something that Duan Tianlang gave to Zhou Weiqing. It was also one of Duan Tianlang's most precious treasures after all those years. There were the only three things left behind by the Strength Legacy. One was in Zhou Weiqing's hand, another was lost, and the last one was with Duan Tianlang.

The Consolidating Brush was made from the skull of a God Tier Heavenly Beast with Spatial attribute. The tip of the pen was made from the nucleus core of the Heavenly Beast.

That Heavenly Beast had already gone extinct from the Boundless Mainland. Now, it was not even heard of on the Mysterious Heaven Mainland. The Consolidating Brush could be considered as one of the most precious among the godly artifacts from the Consolidated Equipment Domain. The long yellow rosewood table was very much inferior in comparison.

A look of greed flashed momentarily in the old Consolidated Equipment Master's eyes. The woman beside him glanced at him subconsciously. The old God Tier Master managed to struggle free of his avarice. He was astonished by his own behavior. With his position, there was nothing on the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland that he could not obtain. Greed was an emotion that he had not experienced for many years.

A dim light sparkled again. Wearing a faint smile on his face, Zhou Weiqing held the Consolidating Brush in his right hand and once again closed his eyes.

The two God Tier Masters opened their eyes even wider. There were three important steps when creating Consolidated Equipment Scrolls. The first step was the creation of the Consolidating Ink. There were many mysterious formulas in existence. Every God Tier Master had their own inherited secret recipes that they would only pass down to their own direct descendants.

The second important step was the design of the scroll. A powerful God Tier Consolidating Equipment Scroll had an extremely complex design. On top of that, even the slightest bit of deviation was not allowed. The final step was to sketch the entire design of the scroll. If even a single mistake were made during any of the three steps, all the efforts would be wasted.

Among the three steps, the most important step was the second step: the design. As long as one obtained the design, an excellent Consolidated Equipment Master would be able to analyze the ratio of materials used for the Consolidating Ink. Instead, the most difficult step of sketching the design was the least important. After all, this only tested the strength of the Consolidated Equipment Master and his mastery in drawing the scroll.

To any God Tier Master, the design of any God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll would be priceless. Zhou Weiqing was about to design the scroll, so how could they miss out on such an opportunity?

This time Zhou Weiqing closed his eyes longer than the previous two times. He just stood there motionlessly. The hand holding the Consolidating Brush remained stable. He remained motionless for as long as half the time it took for the incense stick to burn.

When the two men opposite him started becoming restless, Zhou Weiqing suddenly took a deep breath. The moment he took a deep breath, his entire being seemed like a giant whirlpool. Atmospheric Energy quickly condensed towards his body.

The Power Jewels on Zhou Weiqing's hands also lit up at the same time. Although there were only five jewels, it just took an instant for his imposing stance to rapidly rise.

The other two did not know why Zhou Weiqing's imposing stance rose at that moment, but they did not dare to interrupt. At best, they felt somewhat puzzled. The process of drawing the design required one to be meticulous and prudent. If it had been a design that he had completed before, then it should be the easiest out of the three stages. However, why did he look like he went all out for it? On top of that, it looked like Zhou Weiqing was using a secret technique that needed him to raise his Heavenly Energy far above his cultivation base.

How could they have known that Zhou Weiqing did all of those only for them to see? In the next moment, under the shocking gaze of the other two, the Consolidating Brush in his hand had already entered the crystal vat and was submerged in the silvery lustrous liquid.

"He… What does he want to do?" The two God Tier Masters thought to themselves as they gasped in astonishment.

"It is impossible to use the Consolidating Ink while designing the scroll. Is it possible that he wants to skip the design stage and move straight to creating the scroll? It's impossible!"

While the two God Tier Masters had full confidence in making their own Consolidating Equipment Scrolls, they had never thought of making a Consolidating Equipment Scroll without designing it first. It was not that they did not have the ability to do so, but they would only do so to make normal Consolidated Equipment Scrolls. The materials for making God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scrolls were too valuable, and the probability of failure increased greatly if they did not draw the design first. None of the excellent God Tier Masters would do such a stupid thing. However, the young man in front of them did exactly that.

Zhou Weiqing flicked his right wrist. The wielded Consolidating Brush descended on the Consolidated Equipment Paper. The silver Consolidating Ink immediately produced the outlines. His actions were slow, but his wrist was extremely firm. His emotions seemed to disappear momentarily. It was as though he, the Consolidating Brush, and the Consolidated Equipment Paper were a single entity.

'He is mad. He must be crazy!' The two God Tier Masters looked at each other. They were utterly shocked by Zhou Weiqing.

Thick and silvery radiance continuously surged out from Zhou Weiqing. This was the Heavenly Energy that had been transformed into the Spatial Attribute. The silver radiance went down his arm to the Consolidating Brush in his hand before gathering at the tip of as he slowly drew.

At this moment, the yellow rosewood table and the legendary Consolidating Brush in Zhou Weiqing's hand played a critical role. The Consolidated Equipment Paper lay stably on the yellow rosewood table. When the Consolidating Ink was used to draw the outline on the Consolidated Equipment Paper, the Consolidating Ink would integrate into the Consolidated Equipment Paper in the fastest possible time. The regular movements of the Consolidating Brush in Zhou Weiqing's hand did not waver at all during the entire process as though it had found its own trajectory.

Chapter 696

'To avoid revealing the design, he decided to do it in this manner. He will surely fail.' The two God Tier Masters had the same thoughts. However, would Zhou Weiqing really fail?

The answer was a definite yes.

Before the consolidating brush in Zhou Weiqing's hands had twisted twice and before he even completed the first stroke, deviations had appeared.

As mentioned previously, any mistakes even as fine as hairs would cause the entire thing to fail. Besides, the God Tier Master Level Consolidated Equipment Scroll that was being made by Zhou Weiqing used strokes that were finer than strands of hair. The entire scroll needed thousands of these brush strokes to be completed.

'Failed. And so quickly too. I knew that he couldn't be a God Tier Master.' The two widened their eyes at the same time. They did not know why but they both felt relief in their hearts. Perhaps subconsciously, they did not want to believe that a 25-year-old with only a Five Jewels cultivation base could be a genius at the God Tier Master level.

However, they only managed to heave half a sigh of relief before their bodies tensed up again.

At the moment Zhou Weiqing made the mistake, a strange scene unfolded in front of their eyes. A strange insect-like shadow appeared behind him. Strange energy emanated from it, causing everything in the room to be warped.

What was even stranger was that, following the emergence of the large transparent insect and the distortion, Zhou Weiqing's body started emitting a silvery-white light immediately after.

Everything wound back to a few moments ago. Although it only returned by a few seconds in time, it went back to the time before Zhou Weiqing made the mistake.

The old man could no longer stay calm or constrict his own aura. He stood up in shock as he blurted out, "The Time Attribute!"

Next to him, the woman was completely dumbfounded.

With their cultivation base, how could they not see what Zhou Weiqing had done? Only the Time Attribute could have such an effect! Although they did not know what technique Zhou Weiqing had used, he had clearly used a technique to turn back time. He rewound time back to just before he made a mistake with his Consolidating Brush before continuing from there.

'It can even be done this way'

At this moment, the two God Tier Masters realized that their understanding of the creation of Consolidated Equipment Scrolls had been completely subverted.

It was not just them. Even Shangguan Bing'er who came with Zhou Weiqing was equally shocked.

When Shangguan Bing'er first arrived, she was very nervous because she knew Zhou Weiqing best. She knew that he had never made a Consolidated Equipment Scroll before, so how could it be possible for him to be a God Tier Master? After arriving, although she was not able to judge the strength of the two God Tier Masters, she could sense that their cultivation base was much higher than hers and Zhou Weiqing's. Under such circumstances, if Zhou Weiqing was unable to pass the test, it would be difficult for them to leave this place, let alone obtain the Spatial Teleportation Stone.

Had it not been because of Zhou Weiqing's constant reassurance that he could pass the test, she would never have agreed to him coming here.

However, over time, Shangguang Bing'er became increasingly shocked with Zhou Weiqing's performance. She was not surprised about the Unity of Heaven And Man because she knew the secret behind. However, when Zhou Weiqing started preparing the Consolidating Ink, she realized her understanding of this little fatty was really far off.

At that moment, Zhou Weiqing was extremely focused. Although he was not particularly handsome, in the eyes of women, men that were completely focused on what they were doing were the most handsome.

When Shangguan Bing'er witnessed that scene earlier, she finally understood why Zhou Weiqing said he could make God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scrolls. It looked like Zhou Weiqing's trump card was the Time Attribute. However, Shangguan Bing'er knew that Zhou Weiqing was actually relying on the Saint Energy.

On their way to the Mysterious Heavenly Mainland, Shangguan Bing'er had naturally gotten a grasp of Zhou Weiqing's abilities. She thought to herself, 'Did Zhou Weiqing just use the highest leveled skill from the Time Attribute, Time Reversal?'

This skill had once saved Shangguan Fei'er's life so Shangguan Bing'er remembered it clearly. In normal circumstances, Time Reversal would bring the user back one hour in time. With some difficulty, the user could control the time better or return back slightly further in time. Furthermore, after using Time Reversal, the user would not be able to control the flow of the reversed time, nor could they alter what followed after reversing time.

However, Zhou Weiqing had done just that. Undoubtedly, it was because Zhou Weiqing had used the Saint Energy to cast Time Reversal. The originally useless God Tier skill had now evolved into something that defied natural order.

Zhou Weiqing was not a God Tier Master, but with his Time Reversal skill, he could slowly make a God Tier Master Level Consolidated Equipment Scroll. So what if he made a mistake? If he made a mistake, he could just go back in time and attempt it again and again. As long as there was some improvement each time, it would eventually be completed.

As for the consumption of Saint Energy, Zhou Weiqing only needed a miniscule bit to maintain the Time Reversal. With his cultivation base, he could keep it up even if he only had Five Jewels instead of Nine.

'Little Fatty. You are really too smart.' At this moment, Shangguan Bing'er eyes were full of admiration. Her Little Fatty was too smart. Obviously, he had already planned for all this when he claimed to be a God Tier Master.

While Zhou Weiqing continued on, the two God Tier Masters were stupefied. They obviously felt that Zhou Weiqing's actions were shameless. However, he had the Time Attribute!

'What is this? This is an innate gift. This is definitely a heavenly talent!��� they thought to themselves.

Zhou Weiqing had utilized the Wind, Space, and Time Attributes. With those three Great Attributes combined, it meant that the most powerful and gifted God Tier Master was born.

Zhou Weiqing first came into contact with the Consolidated Equipment Scroll through Huyan Aobo. When the man found out that Zhou Weiqing had gathered those three Attributes, he was pleasantly surprised.

Huyan Aobo might have been pleasantly surprised, but the two God Tier Masters from the Mysterious Heavenly Palace felt nothing but pure shock at the discovery.

Most importantly, they were unable to recognize the Time Reversal that Zhou Weiqing had demonstrated. Even if they recognized it, they would not consider it as being the same Time Reversal.

In this set time that Zhou Weiqing turned back time, he was in full control of it. If the skill was used in the midst of a battle, the results would be terrifying.

What they didn't know was that for this absolute control over time, even with Saint Energy, the most Zhou Weiqing could only rewind time was by five seconds. Additionally as Shangguan Bing'er thought, it did not require a lot of Saint Energy. However the consumption of Spiritual Energy was significant and had been out of Zhou Weiqing's expectations as well.

Fortunately, Zhou Weiqing was not really a Five Jewel Master but a Nine Jewel Master. His Spiritual Energy was also far above the reserves of an ordinary person. Under these circumstances, Zhou Weiqing could still continue crafting the Consolidated Equipment Scroll.

As time passed, sweat began to form on Zhou Weiqing's head, but the sweat was unable to drip onto the Consolidating Paper. There was already a layer of spatial vibration above the Consolidating Paper. Anything that fell on it would be bounced away.

Line after line, stroke after stroke, Zhou Weiqing continued drawing. It was the first time Zhou Weiqing had been so serious and persistent in making a Consolidated Equipment Scroll. What he was making was the Ringless Ground Purging Set that he was most familiar with. Moreover, it was the set he needed the most, the seventh set.

His cultivation base had already reached Nine Jewels. However, he only had five Ringless Ground Purging Sets. Including the Overlord Bow, he would only have six Consolidated Equipment sets. If he had one more Ringless Ground Purging Set, it meant his cultivation base could continue to surge and his strength would be doubled.

Once his power doubled up again, Zhou Weiqing felt he would be able to face a strong Heavenly King Stage enemy, perhaps even an enemy at the maximum level of the Heavenly King Stage.

As for the Heavenly Emperor Stage, he had not thought about it, nor did he wish to try…

Time continued to pass by. When Zhou Weiqing initially arrived, it was still morning. Currently, the sky had turned dark.

Zhou Weiqing's rosy face had turned a little paler, but the determination in his eyes never wavered.

At this moment, the scroll-making process had already arrived at the final stage. The Saint Energy in Zhou Weiqing's body continued to revolve without being consumed much. Even though not much was consumed, he felt like his Soul Energy was being depleted. The consumption of Spiritual Energy was giving him a splitting headache. If he had not been tested over 10 times by the Immortal Deity Technique, his willpower would not have been strong enough for him to last this long.

The process of creating a God Tier Master Level Consolidated Scroll could be paused, but it must never be interrupted. Otherwise, all of the efforts would be in vain. This was also one of the reasons why making a God Tier Master Level Consolidated Scroll required the strength of a Heavenly King Master.

Chapter 697

A Heavenly King Tier powerhouse was not just someone whose heavenly cultivation base had reached an extremely terrifying level. Similarly, the Spiritual and Soul Energy of the Heavenly King Tier powerhouses must have already reached a level that enables them to make Consolidated Equipment Scrolls.

Even then, the body of a God Tier Master would generally not be very strong as the Spiritual Energy and Soul Energy consumption during the production of God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scrolls was too high.

The Consolidated Equipment Scroll that Zhou Weiqing was making could be considered good. After all, it was his sixth Ringless Ground Purging Set. If it was the final few pieces, for example, the tenth Consolidated Equipment Scroll, the Spiritual Energy and Soul Energy consumption rate would be horrifying. This was also why Duan Tianlang taught Zhou Weiqing a lot of things. He was not sure about how much longer he could survive after helping Zhou Weiqing obtain the tenth Ringless Ground Purging Set.

Zhou Weiqing initially did not know this. However, now that he was making the God Tier Consolidating Equipment Scroll, he gradually understood Duan Tianlang's intentions.

'Is this just a big sham?!

'Will he succeed? Will he?!' the God Tier Masters thought. At this time, the two God Tier Masters sat facing each other. Their expressions were no better than Zhou Weiqing's condition. They had also expanded quite a large amount of Spiritual Energy. They tried to memorize each and every stroke made by the Consolidating Brush in Zhou Weiqing's hand. However, Zhou Weiqing often used Time Reversal to repeat the steps, making it harder for them to remember the strokes.

Naturally, they could also see that Zhou Weiqing was almost done with the Consolidated Equipment Scroll.

A faint light flashed. Zhou Weiqing's expression turned even more solemn. He knew that his Spiritual Energy could run out at anytime. However, faced with such a situation, the proud Zhou Weiqing became even more defiant and determined. He clenched his teeth and decided to persevere until the end.

This was not only to complete the God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll but also to test his own willpower. If he could do it, it would be beneficial towards his cultivation in the future. He also believed that if he succeeded in making the God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll, he would be able to get his Saint Energy to break through to the 37th tier.

With such temptation in front of him, how could he give up? If he were to give this opportunity up, no one knew when his Saint Energy breakthrough would take place in the future. Having reached the 36th tier, the following tiers could not be so easily broken through by just effort and hard work. Luck and opportunity were equally important. This current opportunity was a rare chance!

The sky outside gradually turned dark. However, the other three people in the room did not bother lighting any candles because they feared that any small movement would cause Zhou Weiqing to fail.

A faint light flashed again. Zhou Weiqing's face was dripping with sweat. Only a little bit of the Consolidating Ink was left in the crystal vat.

'It is time for the final part.' Zhou Weiqing's pupils constricted to the size of a needle point. The Consolidating Brush in his hands started to tremble for the first time since he started.

At that moment, the atmosphere in the entire cottage became heavy. It felt as though the air itself had solidified. Even Shangguan Bing'er's fists were tightly clenched.

'Hm… Failed.' the God Tier Master thought.

At the moment when Zhou Weiqing's was making his final stroke, the Consolidating Paper suddenly tore. He cast Time Reversal again. However, this time, Zhou Weiqing was trembling. The burden on his Spiritual Energy was so extreme that even his strong body could not take the strain. Blood flowed out of his nose, mouth, and ears. The blood snaked its way down his face, giving him a frightening appearance.

'I must succeed!' Zhou Weiqing shouted in his heart. In a flash, his right hand turned silverish white in color and his trembling hands became stable.

He no longer cared about other matters in his effort to complete the God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll. He had to complete it even if he risked exposing the profound mysteries of Saint Energy. Otherwise, if he failed, it might cause the cultivation progress of his Saint Energy to be stunted.

Zhou Weiqing was very confident before he started making the God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll. With Time Reversal and the Ninth Jewel cultivation, he believed that he was not inferior to any of the Heavenly King Tier Masters. In reality, after he tried making it himself, he understood how difficult it was to make a God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll. If he did not have Time Reversal, he would have failed at least a hundred times already. However, an ordinary God Tier Master would need to complete it without making a single mistake.

It could be said that there was still an insurmountable moat between Zhou Weiqing and a real God Tier Master. However, with Time Reversal, he had forcefully defied natural order.

At this time, the two God Tier Masters did not notice the changes in Zhou Weiqing's Heavenly Energy. Their eyes were on the almost completed scroll that kept going back in time.

The last stroke that a God Tier Master made was usually the one that would bring the most enlightenment. They were no exception. The aura emitted by the silvery-white light and Saint Energy from Zhou Weiqing's hands felt as if it originated from the essence of the world. Both of them chose to ignore it. After all, it had nothing to do with them. On top of that, Zhou Weiqing had already showed them too many miracles. They thought Saint Energy was simply one of the secret techniques of the Strength Legacy.

The gleaming light continued drawing, and the silvery material continued etching. Zhou Weiqing's Consolidating Brush started drawing again. At this point in time, the blood from his face was still dripping profusely. It caused him to look even more terrifying than before.

Suddenly, the bright and silvery light from the Consolidating Paper flared up. The thick silvery waves converged into a very strong ball of light. The blood dripping from Zhou Weiqing's face instantly vaporized. Zhou Weiqing himself was also knocked back a few steps. He did not fall down thanks to Shangguan Bing'er's support.

On the yellow rosewood table, the ball of silver light glowed brighter and brighter. The Atmospheric Energy in the air rushed into the scroll crazily as though it had come to life.

A Consolidated Equipment Scroll of any level would absorb Atmospheric Energy upon completion. The only difference was the amount it absorbed. A Mid and High Level Consolidated Equipment Scroll only absorbed a very small amount. A Heavenly Jewel Master would not even be able to detect it. The difference in absorption rate would become more obvious at the Grandmaster tier. As for God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scrolls, the absorption of Atmospheric Energy could only be described as terrifying. If it had to be quantified, it would absorb the Atmospheric Energy equal to the Nucleus Core of a Heavenly King Tier.

That is why a God Tier Master would choose a place with plenty of Atmospheric Energy to make a scroll. This was also one important reason why the Heaven's Expanse Palace was able to win over the Three God Tier Masters. On the Boundless Mainland, there were not many places that could compare with the Heaven's Expanse Palace when it came to the density of Atmospheric Energy. Naturally, it was also possible to do it at the Heavenly Snow Mountain. However, compared to the Heaven's Expanse Palace, the people there were of a different race, and there was also a slight difference in Atmospheric Energy.

There was no doubt that this place here was rich in Atmospheric Energy. When Zhou Weiqing had finished the production of the scroll, he could clearly feel a large amount of Atmospheric Energy pouring in from every direction into the cottage that was sitting in the middle of the valley. The place was extremely rich in Atmospheric Energy.

Although Zhou Weiqing did not know what caused this phenomenon, it was clear that the abundance of Atmospheric Energy in the area was something natural and not created by men.

The silver light turned pale gold before it became bright gold. Finally, it became a dark, thick golden color.

Suddenly, all the lights converged. It did not spread out. The turbulent Atmospheric Energy around the cottage also disappeared suddenly.

Everything became silent. On the other side of the table, the two God Tier Masters seemed to have collapsed from exhaustion. Their eyes were closed, and their chests heaved up and down. It was obvious that they were exhausted

Zhou Weiqing had a splitting headache. A dark golden scroll with a strange aura was floating on the yellow rosewood table. He breathed a sigh of relief before he turned his head and fell into Shangguan Bing'er's embrace.

In the entire history of God Tier Masters, a twenty year old God Tier Master had never existed before. It was even more impossible to find someone that could create a God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll the way Zhou Weiqing did. However, Zhou Weiqing had truly accomplished it.

Shangguan Bing'er supported the unconscious Zhou Weiqing and sat down at the side. Zhou Weiqing was still filled with Saint Energy so he could continue maintaining a Five Jewel Cultivation Base. She knew that her man was fine and only needed to rest because he had used up too much Spiritual Energy.

After half an incense time, the two God Tier Masters slowly opened their eyes. The first thing they saw was the scroll floating above the wooden table.

The woman slowly got up. She was extremely slender and taller than Shangguan Bing'er by half a head. She waved her right hand and the scroll flew towards her palm and unfolded itself.

She looked at the complicated and mysterious patterns on the scroll. Her beautiful eyes looked enthralled. The old man, standing by her side, also took a good look.

"This is truly a God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll. It is not a Pseudo God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll." The old man easily evaluated the scroll after taking just a few glances at it.

The woman nodded and said, "He should not be called a genius. He should be called a strange genius, a monstrous talent, a peerless talent." She lifted her head and looked at the unconscious Zhou Weiqing again.

At that moment, Zhou Weiqing's bloodstained face had already been wiped clean by Shangguan Bing'er. He remained unconscious in Shangguan Bing'er's embrace.

Shangguan Bing'er looked up at the two and asked suspiciously, "What is a Pseudo God Tier Consolidated Equipment Scroll?"

The woman froze. "Has he never told you?"

Shangguan Bing'er shook her head. "I'm not a Consolidating Master. Also, I would never want to trouble him."
