Swallow the starry sky, grind to become the strongest in the universe

Chapter 106 Customized G-Grade Metal Weapons

Beyond the fifteenth level of the Skybridge, the sprawling bridge extends deep into the core region of a galaxy.

At the very center of the galaxy lies a massive quasar core.

Quasars are actually supermassive black holes. Because they devour so much matter every moment, they form huge and dazzling accretion disks, resembling the kings of stars.

On the sixteenth level of the Skybridge, we were very close to the massive quasar, where the density of stars was terrifyingly high. Within a one-light-year radius, there were over 50 stars.

"Boom!"

Countless stars trembled and roared, and thousands of starlight intertwined and condensed to form a figure that seemed like a god, dressed in white battle clothes and armor.

However, unlike the opponents on the previous fifteen floors, the weapon used by this white-clad warrior was no longer the Time Sword.

“Your Highness Yu Duan, it is my honor to meet a Domain Lord-level challenger.”

The white-clad warrior hovered above the bridge, looked at Yu Duan in front of him, bowed slightly, and then offered an explanation.

"There is something Your Highness needs to know: the Time Sword can no longer unleash my insights, so my weapon is the 'Time Difference Wheel.' Your Highness may inquire about the weapon's information first."

The Time Difference Wheel is a renowned, time-based immortal weapon.

It looks like concentric rings, with complex time-law solidified patterns on the inner and outer rings, which can even subtly affect the flow of time in the surrounding area.

To unleash the true power of the Time Difference Wheel, one must thoroughly understand the 'Dead Object Acceleration' and the corresponding 'Dead Object Deceleration' within the Time Acceleration category.

Ordinary powerful figures who have been granted the title of Marquis are basically unable to use this weapon; at the very least, one must be a high-ranking Marquis to use it.

The guardians of the fifteenth to seventeenth levels of the Tongtian Bridge correspond to the initial, advanced, and peak levels of the Marquis title, respectively, in terms of their understanding of the laws.

"Please make your move, Your Highness. I know that Your Highness is highly skilled in illusion magic, but it is not very effective against me. If I make my move first, Your Highness will have no chance."

The gatekeeper was elegant and polite, seemingly well aware of Yu Duan's illusionary techniques, and showed no fear whatsoever.

The section from the fifteenth to the sixteenth level of the Sky Bridge is a major obstacle.

To be precise, from the fifteenth floor onwards, each floor is a major hurdle, far surpassing the gap between the previous twelfth and thirteenth floors.

"Then take this!"

Yu Duan showed no politeness whatsoever. His figure instantly transformed into a dreamlike and hazy starlight, which rippled outwards in an instant, forming a starlight domain that enveloped the entire area.

Yu Duan's figure also disappeared into this starlight domain.

At the same time, an endless and profound magical power rippled out, pulling the gatekeeper's consciousness about to fall into an illusion.

The gatekeeper's expression changed slightly. He quickly focused most of his consciousness to resist the attraction of this illusion, and could only exert 30% of his strength.

But even with only 30% of their strength, it would be enough.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, within the hazy starlight domain, the natural spacetime fluctuations hummed, followed by a brilliant sword light that appeared directly before the gatekeeper.

However, the next moment, an invisible wave rippled out, and the speed of this sword light instantly decreased by hundreds of times.

The most basic type of deceleration is the slowing down of inanimate objects and the slowing down of time.

Immediately following, the figure of the gatekeeper instantly retreated hundreds of thousands of kilometers, and the huge concentric wheel began to spin wildly at that moment.

The time fluctuations of deceleration and acceleration operate in reverse, and a violent force of the laws of time ripples out, transforming into a blazing halo of light.

"Your Highness's illusions are indeed exquisite; I cannot detect your true form. However, in the face of absolute power, these things are of little significance."

The gatekeeper of this checkpoint exudes elegance in every move he makes.

Even at the very end, he calmly reminded Yu Duan of a fatal problem.

Do not rely on your powerful illusion magic to challenge stronger opponents.

Only a deep understanding of the laws and a high level of attainment can form the foundation and reliance for becoming a strong person.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the halo was thrown out by the gatekeeper.

For martial artists skilled in close combat, dropping their weapon is a major taboo, but if the difference in skill level is too great, then it's a different story.

Even if they can only exert 30% of their strength, the guardian of this level is still dozens of times stronger than the guardian of the fifteenth level.

In an instant, endless fluctuations in time were disrupted by that time wheel.

The power of time itself rapidly converged towards the halo, and under the influence of acceleration and deceleration, it formed a terrifying time difference storm.

In just about a microsecond, the light wheel transformed into an energy storm with a diameter of tens of thousands of kilometers, carrying the violent power of the source of time, which erupted and spread, ravaging the entire Tongtian Bridge plane.

……

A moment later, Yu Duan's consciousness returned to his original body in the Divine Fall Secret Realm.

"The gap is too big. It's definitely not something you can overcome with just the Illusion Stream technique."

Yu Duan recalled the details of the battle just now. He had handled it perfectly, but he was still instantly killed in one move.

With Yu Duan's current peak mastery of the laws at the fourteenth level of the Tongtian Bridge, he has not actually reached the ultimate realm of the Time Sword Technique.

The gatekeeper of the fifteenth floor was instantly killed by Yu Duan's illusion, and he mastered the ninth level of the Time Sword Technique.

Once unleashed, the sword light truly and perfectly merges with the fluctuations of time, making it virtually undetectable to anyone below the Marquis-level Immortal realm.

Even the final outburst was silent.

"A strong will only makes my illusion more stable and harder to break free from."

"But if we want to trap even more powerful realm lords and immortals in the illusion, we still need to improve our understanding of the laws and the strength of our souls."

Yu Duan came to his senses, raised his hand and waved it, looking at the Time Sword in his palm.

"Perhaps I should change my weapon."

This Time Sword was a gift from Prince Clatton of the Blazing Lotus Empire when he first visited Yu Duan. Now, over a thousand years later, he has grown from a young man who could barely wield the first level of the Time Sword to someone who has almost perfectly mastered the Time Sword Technique.

Immediately, Yu Duan's consciousness logged back into the virtual universe.

"Natural, help me search for some weapons suitable for showcasing my mastery of the laws, preferably swords."

"Yes, Master!"

Upon hearing this, Tianran immediately entered the virtual universe treasure vault to help Yu Duan search for various treasures.

Within a few seconds, dozens of sword-like weapons appeared.

“Master, these swords are quite special. They were specially made for some talented geniuses at the World Lord level, and the requirements for their cultivation level are relatively low.”

Among Force weapons and Psychic weapons, there is basically no significant difference in power between weapons of the same rank.

For example, the nine divine weapons that the wielder possesses are all terrifyingly powerful.

But in reality, any fifth-tier weapon, when used to its fullest potential, can have this effect.

However, the lower the grade of the fifth-tier weapon, the more difficult it is to use, and some of them will also emit strong law fluctuations. Low-level beings may be injured even if they touch it, let alone use it.

The weapons of immortal gods, however, show a clear difference in power, mainly depending on the weapon's material, the level of solidified law runes, and so on.

Furthermore, the vast majority of immortal divine weapons are difficult for world lords to wield.

Yu Duan's gaze swept over the divine swords one by one, and after a moment he shook his head: "Forget it, let's just commission a weapon."

As soon as he finished speaking, he opened the weapon customization service in the special services section at the endpoint.

The first step was to choose the material, and Yu Duan directly chose G-grade metal.

Once I break through to the Realm Lord level, F-grade metal weapons will no longer be suitable for me.

"The G-grade metal 'Ultimate Light Crystal' naturally contains the power of the fundamental laws of light and time. This is good."

Grade G metals do not have a classification from 1 to 9.

There are only three tiers: standard, top-tier, and special.

Generally, weapons forged by those who are granted the title of King or Immortal are made of ordinary G-grade metal.

Some powerful peak-level and ultimate-level King-level weapons are forged from top-grade G-level metal.

As for G-grade metals with special effects, such as Star Tear Gold, those are materials that cannot be used to forge immortal weapons.

And this 'Ultimate Light Crystal' is just a common G-grade metal.

"Master, there's also the setting for the Solidification Law Runes..."

Yu Duan comprehended the fundamental laws of light and the mysteries of time's pause.

The previous 'Time Purification' was an effect combining time acceleration and the fundamental laws of light, which is no longer quite compatible with Yu Duan's current state.

"This 'timeless' change is more suitable for me now."

Yu Duan selected the 'Timeless Immortality' that best suited him from the effects of combining various changes in the laws of time and the laws of light.

Any attack that incorporates the 'Timeless' effect will be more difficult to erase and decay.

"As for the appearance, let's take inspiration from the Time Sword. We're already used to it."

In the end, even with a discount, the cost of customizing just one sword still exceeded 400 million points.

This time, Yu Duan successfully navigated the thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth levels of the Sky Bridge, earning a total of over 2.8 million points, which wasn't even enough to buy a custom weapon.

Custom-made weapons take time.

By the time the 'Sword of Time' that Yu Duan had customized was delivered to the clone of the Light Source Star, more than half a year had passed.

This is already the result of accelerated queue jumping; otherwise, it might have taken thousands of years to complete.

……

At this moment, on the Light Source Star, a screen was floating in front of Yu Duan.

It was a points-based task that had just been issued, giving Yu Duan a reasonable motivation to wander around aimlessly.

"This task is the highest-scoring task for members of the Primal Secret Realm (Domain Lord level)."

"According to the Virtual Universe Company's assessment, many immortal gods in the Beiming Universe Kingdom branch have committed serious dereliction of duty, and you are required to conduct an undercover investigation."

"The following are messages from 147 immortal deities who committed serious dereliction of duty..."

"Depending on the completion rate, the maximum reward is 100 million points."

For most domain lords of the original secret realms, 100 million points is a huge fortune.

However, for Yu Duan now, 100 million points are not enough.

Just as Yu Duan was checking the detailed mission information, his second senior brother, the Netherworld Demon Venerable, sent a communication request.

"Junior brother, did you see the 147 Immortal intelligence items in that points mission?"

The Demon Lord smiled and said, "This information is incomplete. It can be basically confirmed that four of the immortals are beings controlled by the souls of the demon race."

"Your task is to cause trouble for them. As for the other 143 immortals, you can handle them as you see fit."

Yu Duan nodded quickly and said, "Okay, senior brother, I understand."

A moment later, the communication ended, and Yu Duan immediately summoned Tu Yu and a large number of guards to prepare for departure.

Yu Duan's next actions should not be carried out in a grand manner, but should also be kept secret, though not too secretive.

We need to leave some clues so that the alien forces within the Northern Ming Universe will try every means to gather information about Yu Duan.

The bigger their movements, the more flaws they will reveal.
