Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” Chapter 639: Perfect Weapon Refining

"Master, this place is so immense!" Meng Kui exclaimed with excitement.

Su Yuan stated calmly, "It's merely a dwelling. What matters is that a main vein source of Chaos Flame resides within!"

A unique luminescence flickered in Su Yuan's eyes.

"So that's how it is."

Meng Kui nodded, comprehending.

Su Yuan commanded, "I must enter seclusion for artifact forging. Guard the entrance and permit no one to disturb me!"

"Yes, Master, I shall guard it diligently!" Meng Kui responded crisply.

Su Yuan nodded and proceeded into the main hall of the estate. As expected, a mass of fierce flames burned vigorously at its center.

This was Chaos Flame, capable of existing independently within Nothingness, transforming nothingness into existence, and continuously sustaining its own combustion. The flame encapsulated the Great Dao of Chaos Fire, useful for artifact forging, pill refining, world destruction, and world creation, exhibiting diverse effects.

The current mass of Chaos Flame Su Yuan observed was a segment of the main vein belonging to Black Flame City's Chaos Flame. However, through this segment, he could directly commune with the entire main vein.

Su Yuan's thoughts stirred as the [Life Dominator] trait activated.

His palm was slowly placed upon the Chaos Flame. A definition representing "life" was gradually yet firmly imbuing this Chaos Flame with true life!

This was a power that transcended the imagination of Chaos Dominators.

Chaos Flame was not life and possessed no concept of sentience.

If it were sentient, it would cease to be Chaos Flame.

Nevertheless, the [Life Dominator] trait reversed this condition. Su Yuan bestowed "life" upon the Chaos Flame!

In time, a will began to emerge throughout the entire main vein of the Chaos Flame.

This will carried the Great Dao of Chaos Fire inherently present within the Chaos Flame itself. Consequently, the instant this will manifested, it possessed an incredibly profound comprehension of Chaos True Intent.

Coupled with the astonishing original essence inherently contained within the Chaos Flame, the Chaos Flame's realm simultaneously ascended to the apex of Chaos True Intent comprehension—sixty tiers!

Indeed!

The very moment this Chaos Flame main vein came into being, it attained the sixty-tier realm!

Utilizing its own flame vein as its Power Source, it was akin to a body-refining cultivator. In terms of sustained power, it could not rival other Chaos Dominators of the same tier who possessed Life-bound Chaos, but its immediate combat prowess had reached that level!

Before Su Yuan, the flames coalesced and formed a flame giant, which knelt respectfully and prostrated itself toward Su Yuan.

"Paying respects to the Creator. Kindly bestow a name!"

"You shall henceforth be known as Flame King!" Su Yuan declared calmly. "Address me as Seven Stars Master!"

"Yes, Star Master!" Flame King replied respectfully.

"How do you perceive your state now? As a newborn, you should be capable of continued cultivation, correct?" Su Yuan inquired.

Flame King respectfully responded, "Star Master, I have already mastered sixty-tier Chaos True Intent. Should I be able to consume higher quality flames, I may yet advance further! Concurrently, I can continue cultivating independently, though the pace is exceedingly slow!"

"I shall grant you opportunities for advancement in due time!" Su Yuan promised, painting a picture of future prosperity.

In truth, the developmental potential of this kind of awakened lifeform might possibly lag behind even the weakest Chaos Dominator. Every single Chaos Dominator had surmounted countless adversities and trials, breaking through their limitations progressively.

This Flame King had materialized directly at sixty tiers. A single impediment in its will could ensnare it for eons.

The Flame King, in its flame giant form, expressed with great elation, "Thank you, Star Master!"

"Now, serve as my guard and forging assistant!" Su Yuan instructed.

"Yes!"

The flame giant-form Flame King's body recondensed, morphing into the appearance of a young boy, who stood respectfully beside Su Yuan, ready to serve.

Su Yuan was exceptionally pleased. "Now, assist me in artifact forging!"

Su Yuan naturally commenced controlling the Chaos Flame before him to begin the forging process, with the transformed boy at his side fully cooperating. In essence, the boy was merely an Avatar; his true essence remained the Chaos Flame vein situated beneath Black Flame City.

Su Yuan possessed the dual paramount Dominator traits of [Life Dominator] and [Dominator of Will], granting him innate command over the life he had created, affording him one hundred percent control over the Chaos Flame before him, thereby rendering artifact forging incomparably more manageable.

Su Yuan merely needed to issue directives, and Flame King would assist him in maintaining the requisite conditions. This operational efficiency far surpassed previous methods.

Su Yuan fed a constant stream of materials into the Chaos Flame. With a mere thought, he guided the Chaos Flame to refine each component individually. After setting the precise flame intensity required for every material, he could delegate the task to Flame King, thus freeing Su Yuan from the constant need to manage the Chaos Flame and maintain the specific heat levels.

Each material's refinement reached the True Intent stage, delving into the most fundamental aspects of matter to achieve unparalleled perfection.

With subtle manipulations, Su Yuan fused these refined materials into a singular entity, taking the elegant form of a longsword.

This longsword could rightfully be called the most flawlessly crafted Dominator Artifact Embryonic Weapon Su Yuan had ever brought into existence. All constituent materials were perfectly integrated at the Chaos True Intent level of material composition, coalescing into an entirely new material form that possessed natural compatibility with the Old City Lord's Chaos Great Dao.

The [Dominator of Artifacts] trait automatically activated!

Su Yuan channeled the Old City Lord's original essence power into this newly forged longsword. Spontaneously, one Chaos Dao Pattern after another materialized from thin air!

Su Yuan engineered this longsword to generate its Dao Patterns intrinsically, as if by birthright, eliminating the need for him to manually engrave and imprint them.

This advanced forging technique was previously beyond Su Yuan's capabilities, as the materials he had refined before lacked the supreme perfection he had now achieved.

This self-generating Dominator Artifact appeared so natural that ordinary individuals would struggle to discern it as a man-made creation. Only Dominators possessing specialized abilities could perceive its artificial origin by examining fundamental layers like causality, Fate, Time, and Space.

As time flowed onward.

Within Su Yuan's personal temporal system, hundreds of Yuan Assemblies had already elapsed.

He meticulously observed the complete forging process of this longsword, and his grasp of Chaos True Intent steadily deepened.

More significantly, the Dominator Artifact that now rested before him had evolved into an alternative form of Dominator-level life.

This was distinct from the existence of a warship spirit. Upon a warship spirit's birth, it views the Dominator Artifact merely as a vessel; the artifact itself remains an artifact. However, in this instance, the Dominator Artifact itself embodied a form of life, complete with its own consciousness!

It ignited a True Name Star for Su Yuan, propelling his Chaos True Name Great Dao forward another crucial step.

His physical body's cultivation realm seamlessly ascended to the forty-sixth tier!

This was an entirely unexpected and welcome boon.

Upon completing the forging, Su Yuan submitted a request to the Merit Points Mall for an appraisal.

After a deduction of a certain quantity of Merit Points, the mall's official appraisal results were delivered.
