Jian Wushuang listened, somewhat bewildered by the vague explanations.

Though he didn’t fully grasp it, he had a rough idea.

It seemed that Lian Xing was concerned about the backlash he might suffer from assisting him in refining stars.

Jian Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief at this realization.

For him, this was nothing to worry about.

“Senior, my decision is firm. I hope you will grant my request!” Jian Wushuang clasped his hands together in a respectful salute.

Seeing this, Lian Xing regretted somewhat having informed Jian Wushuang about the matter concerning the Divine Grade Sword Billet.

It appeared he was fully committed to his course of action.

After a brief pause, Lian Xing stroked his beard, then relented.

“Fine, since you are so determined, I will make an exception and craft for you an unparalleled divine sword!” Lian Xing declared, but furrowed his brow as he added a condition.

“But you must agree to one request of mine!”

Upon hearing this, Jian Wushuang was startled at first, then resolutely declared, “Even if it’s not just one condition, even if it’s ten or a hundred, I’m willing!”

“Haha, there’s no need to be so eager with your words. My condition is quite serious!” Lian Xing laughed heartily.

Jian Wushuang was puzzled. “Could it be that Senior has some peculiar preference?”

“Ridiculous boy, what nonsense are you thinking!” Lian Xing blushed, then hastily said, “My request is actually quite simple. Once you possess the divine sword, don’t let its power go to waste!”

Upon hearing this request, Jian Wushuang relaxed and pledged to ensure that the fame of the divine sword would spread throughout the Ancient Moon Spacetime.

Lian Xing smiled faintly.

He didn’t think Jian Wushuang was boasting.

To shake the Ancient Moon with fame!

Even a Universe Master of the Seventh Tribulation could achieve it.

He truly acknowledged Jian Wushuang’s potential and strength.

The Seventh Tribulation might not be beyond reach.

Upon reflection, he thought it would be quite good to craft a Divine-tier sword embryo or blank for an Emperor, mainly because of Jian Wushuang.

In the future, when Jian Wushuang truly became a Universe Master of the Seventh Tribulation, shaking the Ancient Moon Spacetime, he would wield the divine sword crafted by Lian Xing.

It’s also a good story.

“A sword blank, huh? I need to check the treasury to see if we have enough materials!” Lian Xing started to get a headache right after agreeing.

He had plenty of materials, but it seemed he had no leftovers suitable for the sword blank.

If the materials were insufficient, he would have to purchase some during the day.

It was somewhat troublesome.

During the day, within the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, lay the most powerful cosmic mystery.

It was also the oldest mystery.

The Ancient Moon Sect was situated within the White Heaven.

However, it did not interfere with the internal forces of the White Heaven.

The eight-star sects, which ruled the White Heaven, still had complete control over it.

At this moment, Jian Wushuang didn’t know yet that he wouldn’t even need to go out for materials. He asked, “Senior, what materials are needed to forge a Divine-tier sword blank? I can buy them in the city!”

“Tsk tsk, it seems you don’t quite understand the power of Divine-tier sword blanks. Those materials are affordable only to an Emperor like you. Don’t bother thinking about it. This time, I’ll cover all the materials, but it’ll take some preparation time!” Lian Xing found Jian Wushuang’s words somewhat amusing.

Jian Wushuang felt a warmth in his heart.

He hadn’t expected that on their first meeting, not only would the other person offer to help him forge a Divine-tier sword blank for free, but he wouldn’t even need to provide materials.

This favor was significant, and he needed to remember it.

In the future, when he achieved higher levels, he would have to repay it.

“Oh, by the way, the capital is going to hold a special auction recently. You should come with me to take a look. Some special treasures will be useful to you when you become the Universe Master, treasures that you won’t hear about outside!”

“Treasures I won’t hear about outside?” Jian Wushuang was intrigued.

Lian Xing said calmly, “These treasures are usually bought by superpowers for their geniuses. They are extremely precious, and even one of them might cost several pieces of primordial stones!”

“Primordial stones?”

Forget about those treasures, he hadn’t even heard of this seemingly special primordial stone.

“Haha, that’s right. As an Emperor, you probably haven’t heard of primordial stones. Generally, only Universe Masters possess such things. They are condensed within the universe and can only be condensed by Universe Masters. In one epoch, a Universe Master of the Third Tribulation can only condense one, while a Universe Master of the Fourth Tribulation can condense ten. Similarly, a Universe Master of the Eighth Tribulation can condense 100,000 of them. Now you understand its value!” Lian Xing explained patiently.

“Jian Wushuang froze at the mention of 100,000 stones.

If that was the count, then they were truly invaluable.

Even the weakest Universe Master required an entire era to condense one.

An Eighth Tribulation Universe Master could condense 100,000 of them, but there were only a few of those in existence.

In history, there had been many, but in this current era, there were likely only a handful.

“Just now, the Source Stone Mountain you brought out is worth about 3,000 primordial stones!” Lian Xing was afraid Jian Wushuang couldn’t grasp it, so he provided a reference.

With this, Jian Wushuang gained better understanding.

A Sixth Tribulation Universe Master needed three eras to condense 3,000 primordial stones.

The value was indeed significant.

No wonder even Seventh Tribulation would covet it.

Of course, when referring to the Seventh Tribulation here, it meant the Scattered Tribulations.

A Seventh Tribulation Universe Master could produce 10,000 primordial stones within an era.

“So, what’s the use of these primordial stones?” Jian Wushuang’s curiosity grew.

Being so precious and exclusive to Universe Masters, they must serve some purpose he didn’t know.

Soon, he asked.

Lian Xing patiently explained.

These primordial stones were calculated based on the universe’s own accumulation.

For instance, an ordinary Seventh Tribulation Universe Master could produce 10,000 primordial stones, which was merely a baseline.

Then, there was the matter of their own accumulation.

No one would tell the truth.

A powerful Seventh Tribulation Universe Master could produce 30,000, even 50,000 primordial stones within an era.

But how much they produced, only they knew, and they naturally wouldn’t flaunt it.

It concerned their own strength.

The strong always hid themselves.

Just like Jian Wushuang, if it wasn’t necessary for him to seek help, he wouldn’t reveal his true strength.

The more cards one held, the safer they were in the cultivation world.

As for the uses of primordial stones, there were many.

Firstly, they were produced by the universe and could nourish it in return.

If one was injured, the universe would also suffer damage, and these primordial stones would be a great aid in recovery.

However, such an act was somewhat wasteful.

Until absolutely necessary, no one would use primordial stones to heal.

Their greater use was in facing the tribulations.

Every tribulation required a large reserve of primordial stones.

This was almost a consensus among all Tribulation Realms.

Primordial Stones were about accumulation.

The more one accumulated, the greater their assurance in overcoming tribulations.

Many Universe Masters who suppressed their own tribulations didn’t just refrain from crossing them because of insufficient strength.
