The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2692 - 2681: How Is This Possible?

After entering the Weapon King Pavilion.

The entire space of the Weapon King Pavilion was very spacious, filled with large bookshelves.

Each bookshelf displayed various ancient books.

Ye Chenfeng noticed that a word was engraved at the top of every bookshelf. Some had the word "Zhong"; some had the word "Pang"; some had the word "Jiang"; some had the word "Meng"; and some had the word "Tong".

These five surnames likely represented Zhong Tianxiang, Pang Deming, Jiang Huaning, Meng Gaoshi, and Tong Chengwen.

Any bookshelf with their surnames engraved likely contained their own legacy among the ancient books.

With only half a month’s time and tens of thousands of ancient books here, just browsing through them all would already be a daunting task, let alone fully comprehending them.

But the time available to Ye Chenfeng was just as limited, leaving him no room for idle thoughts. He first approached the bookshelf engraved with the word "Zhong" and began flipping through each ancient book one by one.

As a supreme Artifact Refiner, Ye Chenfeng naturally had an incomparable foundation in artifact refining. The ancient books recorded Zhong Tianxiang’s various refining experiences and insights, including the methods for crafting all the weapons he had ever made.

It was known that the Spirit Array Diagram of each weapon was different, and its strength determined the weapon’s power.

Even for identical weapons of the same grade, their Spirit Array Diagrams could vary in countless ways.

In essence, the Spirit Array Diagram acts as a weapon’s heart, and Ye Chenfeng desired to craft an unparalleled Immortal Artifact by creating a unique Spirit Array Diagram unmatched by anyone.

Ye Chenfeng immersed himself in the ancient books like a giant sponge absorbing water, completely absorbed in the most intense comprehension. At this moment, he temporarily forgot everything else and devoted himself to the world of artifact refining.

On some bookshelves, he comprehended quickly, while for others, he paused considerably longer.

Time flew by swiftly.

In the blink of an eye, the Valley of Divine Instruments had been open for over three days.

Outside the Valley of Divine Instruments.

Artifact Refiners were transported out one by one, including two ancestors from the Soul Instrument Pavilion—Qi Kangfu and Zhang Hezhi—who were transported out after only two days inside.

Now, only two other Soul Instrument Pavilion ancestors, Li Muyan and Shi Wan’an, remained in the Valley of Divine Instruments, and of course, Ye Chenfeng, who was comprehending the five supreme legacies.

He Yuantian had never left the Valley of Divine Instruments, while four of the Hes’ Five Shadows gathered together, hiding in the darkness; naturally, they sought vengeance for the Shadow Five Elder ye Chenfeng allegedly killed.

Who knows if Ye Chenfeng would disguise himself again before being transported out? So, He Yuantian insisted on checking every Artifact Refiner transported out. Any refiner unwilling to cooperate faced an overwhelming killing intent in the atmosphere, emanating from the remaining Hes’ Four Shadows.

Thus, all transported-out reneders had no choice but to comply, fully aware of the battle prowess of the Hes’ Five Shadows. Mysterious powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, indicating the collective presence of the Hes’ Four Shadows, arose in the air.

In all the checks conducted, Ye Chenfeng’s presence wasn’t detected, leaving only three people still inside the Valley of Divine Instruments. Ye Chenfeng had to be among them.

Qi Kangfu, Zhang Hezhi, and He Yuantian were surprised that Ye Chenfeng remained inside this long. Over three days had passed already! They were also amazed that Li Muyan and Shi Wan’an had not emerged either since their personal records of staying inside hadn’t surpassed three days, yet they had performed exceptionally this time.

Qi Kangfu, Zhang Hezhi, and He Yuantian didn’t know Ye Chenfeng was a supreme Artifact Refiner; they only knew him as an Eighth Grade Artifact Refiner.

The knowledge of Ye Chenfeng’s supreme Artifact Refiner status was closely guarded by Li Muyan and Shi Wan’an.

As Qi Kangfu’s group watched with increasingly grim expressions, two beams of light shimmered at the Valley of Divine Instruments’ entrance once again.

Li Muyan and Shi Wan’an were simultaneously transported out. Upon arrival, they began scanning the crowd, trying to locate Ye Chenfeng.

Qi Kangfu spoke up, "Old Li and Old Shi, stop looking; that kid hasn’t come out from the Valley of Divine Instruments yet."

His words carried a gritting tone, along with envy, bitterness, and resentment. This was Ye Chenfeng’s first time in the Valley of Divine Instruments, yet he managed to stay for such a prolonged period?

He Yuantian’s gaze focused on Li Muyan and Shi Wan’an, "Old Li, Old Shi, that kid colluded with entities from beyond. Who knows what malicious intent he harbors. Previously, I thought you two were fooled. Now, I hope you won’t intervene, or you cannot blame me for being unkind."

Being threatened by He Yuantian, Li Muyan and Shi Wan’an’s expressions darkened. Yet, they could sense the lurking killing intent in the shadows.

If He Yuantian intended to eliminate them, they would likely be swiftly killed by those hidden in the shadows.

They also guessed that Ye Chenfeng wouldn’t emerge early; Ye Chenfeng’s talent was just too formidable. They had no other strategy and could only take one step at a time for now.

The sun rose and set.

Day after day.

In the blink of an eye, the Valley of Divine Instruments had been open for ten days.

Those artifact refiners transported out of the Valley hadn’t left, nor would He Yuantian and his group.

Initially, everyone speculated that Ye Chenfeng could endure for no more than five days inside.

This alone would have been an astonishing achievement.

For these artifact refiners who personally experienced the difficulty of the Valley of Divine Instruments, they understood that prolonging their stay for even an hour there was exceedingly challenging.

Li Muyan and Shi Wan’an, who knew Ye Chenfeng somewhat better, predicted that he might manage six days.

But as ten days passed without Ye Chenfeng emerging, they, too, grew anxious. Ye Chenfeng’s talent far surpassed their expectations; ultimately, they underestimated Ye Chenfeng.

Everyone fixed their gazes on the Valley of Divine Instruments’ entrance.

Ten days.

Ten whole days.

What did this signify? It signified Ye Chenfeng possessed unfathomable artifact refining talent and surpassed every refiner present by a significant margin.

He Yuantian’s eyes narrowed, overshadowed by a sinister aura, not wanting to accept the reality before him.

How could Ye Chenfeng remain inside the Valley of Divine Instruments for ten days without being transported out?

How was this possible?

He refused to accept it.

He couldn’t accept it.
