At the instant the Sky-opening Axe Soul entered the Innate Chaotic Five-colored Stone, the surrounding colorful light swiftly converged and was absorbed by the Sky-opening Axe. However, fast as the absorption was, the world of colors was too vast, seemingly without bounds. The colorful mists couldn't be completely absorbed no matter how much one tried.
Ti passed unknowingly, maybe an hour, perhaps a month, or possibly a year... Eventually, the entire colorful world gradually dimd, the colorful fog growing thinner and thinner, until at last, it vanished completely, leaving the world in shades of grey and black.
With a thought, the Sky-opening Axe instantly returned to his body, and at the sa ti, Xin Yun woke up. He slowly opened his eyes, only to see the once massive, colorful stone sphere in front of him had turned grey and black.
Tentatively, he pressed it with his hand, and in an instant, the ten-ter diater five-colored stone sphere turned to flying ash, scattering on the ground, and filling the mine with dust.
"Damn it!" Cursing, Xin Yun didn't dare to delay, swiftly turning around and running towards the outside of the cave. The dust was too overwhelming here, making it impossible to breathe. If he didn't leave soon, he would suffocate.
After running a good distance, Xin Yun finally left the dust behind him and sat down on the ground, panting. Before he could catch his breath, a flash of colorful light shone, and from Xin Yun's mouth shot out a multicolored speck of light.
The speck grew bigger as soon as it left his mouth and started to disperse. Upon closer inspection, it was a collection of fragnt-like objects, comprised of four blade-like objects, a banner, a chart, a bell, and a cauldron.
On closer examination, all the fragnts were grey and black in color, primitive and desolate, seeming to recount a piece of history. Xin Yun knew these were the remnants ford by the shattering of the Sky-opening Axe. Unfortunately, they could not be repaired or condensed into their original form at the mont.
With the help of the Innate Chaotic Five-colored Stone, the Sky-opening Axe had reconstituted its true form based on the stone, but it was rely an embryo and wholly powerless. To restore its abilities, it was imperative to gather Essence Gold and infuse them into the Chaos Cauldron to revert to the Innate state, and only then could they be utilized to repair the Sky-opening Axe itself.
However, the true body of the Sky-opening Axe was enormously vast, and the amount of Essence Gold needed for a full restoration was imasurable. Consider Mount Buzhou, which reaches from the earth to the skies. As of now, no one can even fly to the height of its knees, indicating its imnsity.
The volu of the original Sky-opening Axe was truly colossal. Xin Yun roughly calculated that the Essence Gold, refined from a gold mass as large as the Earth and reverted to its Innate state, would be enough to fully restore the Sky-opening Axe. Of course... that was solely for gold. It would also require the sa amounts of silver, copper, iron, and tin to complete it.
Moreover, such enhancent has no limits. The more material is inserted, the more powerful it becos. Even restoring it to its peak condition does not an it has reached its limits; that is just a new beginning.
Now, these eight fragnts are still rely embryos, possessing no abilities. To restore their powers, it requires a considerable quantity of Essence Gold.
If the massive five-colored stone were divided into ten parts, three would be used to concentrate the Chaos Cauldron. Hence, the cauldron had already activated its most fundantal function—reverting to the Innate state!
During contemplation, Xin Yun pointed with his hand, and the cauldron-shaped fragnt slowly flew towards him. Closer inspection revealed it was a Four-legged Square Cauldron with ancient patterns on its surface. Looking into its mouth, it was dark and unfathomable.
Throwing tals into it, the Chaos Cauldron would begin the refinent process automatically, reverting the materials to their Innate state, and then transferring it onto the other fragnts to slowly restore their original strength and abilities.
A slight movent in his heart, and Xin Yun laughed aloud, looking at the Bronze Elite ore he had dug up during this period, scattered and piled on the ground. It seed he didn't need to search deliberately—the bronze ore here was free for the taking, as much as one wished.
Amidst his laughter, Xin Yun collected the other seven fragnts and left only the Chaos Cauldron hovering above his head. As energy circulated, the cauldron mouth emitted an endless suction, drawing all the Bronze Elite ore in its path and making them disappear into the cauldron.
It took a whole day to travel the path, gathering all the Bronze Elite ore mined from the ten-kiloter tunnel into the cauldron. The mouth of the cauldron glowed with a cyan light, obviously beginning the refining process. Once transford into Bronze Elite, it would start using the chaotic airflow to extract and revert it to the Innate state and then use it to restore the original body.
After collecting the last piece of ore, Xin Yun stopped. He really wanted to keep digging, but knew it would be foolish. With the ti it would take, it would be more worthwhile to conduct so business and use the money earned to buy more bronze.
"However..." Just as Xin Yun was about to leave, sothing suddenly occurred to him, hinting at another place. (To be continued. For more, please visit . More chapters available, support the author, and support genuine reading!)
