When Lu Yu opened the gift box, the contents inside shocked him.

Inside the box, there was a ruyi lying quietly.

He picked up the ruyi in a daze.

As soon as he touched it, a cold feeling came from the ruyi.

The Lu family was in the appraisal business to begin with, so he had a good eye for magical equipment.

Exquisite blue patterns appeared on the icy blue brilliant demon stone. These were patterns that only appeared after the brilliant demon stone had been perfectly refined.

The silver threads that weaved through them were as thin as hair, and they were pieces of pelleted silver.

Pelleted silver was famous for its extremely difficult refinement. To be able to refine such a thing to such a fine level, the standards required was truly shocking.

And on top of that magic treasure, there were mysterious dao patterns. Although Lu Yu did not know what that was, he knew that it was the source of the magic treasure's formidable power.

No matter from which aspect, this ruyi was a good magic treasure.

Almost at first glance, Lu Yu knew that this ruyi must be a top-grade magic treasure.

Such a magic treasure's value must be greater than the materials he had given today.

If it was not for the fact that this magic treasure was in his hands right now, he would not believe his eyes.

The business of the Lu family was not big, so he rarely encountered such high-quality goods.

"Would that senior give such a magic treasure as a gift in return?"

He was a little incredulous.

He wondered if the servant who had gone to give the gift had taken it by mistake.

He had been tossing and turning all night. He had been thinking about whether or not he should send the item back.

He had not slept all night. The next day, his eyes were red as he planned to go to the city lord's mansion.

On the way, he received a piece of shocking news.

Everyone received a magical treasure in return!

Moreover, everyone's magical treasure was a high-quality product.

"How is this possible?"

Lu Yu's first reaction was suspicion.

"How much does it cost?"

His second reaction was shock.

Magical equipment of this level required a lot of money.

But very soon, he fell into deep thought again.

"That mysterious expert, not only is he powerful, but he is also a refiner?"

Very soon, Lu Yu realized that this might be an opportunity.

He quickly ran over to his home. His heart was incomparably excited.

Very soon, he took a high-grade material from his family's collection and sent it to the city lord's mansion.

He was not the only demon cultivator who realized this.

...

Ye Changge's method was very effective.

After throwing out one magic treasure after another, the number of materials sent by those forces obviously increased, and the starting grade also increased.

He was not stingy either. The higher the grade of the materials he received, the higher the grade of the magic treasures he returned.

After all, to him, this kind of refinement was truly as he wished.

However, not every single material met his needs.

Ye Changge's body was damaged, but his body had already become extremely strong under the influence of the Tiangang One Qi Technique and the Indestructible Golden Body Technique.

This also caused him to need high-grade materials of the same level to repair his body.

Among such materials, there were very few that could nurture life in the dead.

Ye Changge finally found something that could be used after going through the great waves and scouring the sand.

Among the few materials, one was a strange wood, and the other was a precious jade.

After refining them into medicinal liquid and using them to bathe and practice martial arts, Ye Changge's body was slowly recovering.

As he felt his body recovering, he realized that he had to think of a way to obtain more materials.

The materials given by those people were not to be wasted. They were all used by him to refine magic treasures.

For him, using these materials to refine some magic treasures would hardly be a waste.

Time passed slowly by while his body was being repaired.

Ye Changge soon discovered the problem.

The spirit qi and demonic qi around Star Cluster City had been greatly reduced.

This was all caused by him.

As a god-level expert, Ye Changge's consumption of heaven and earth spirit qi was extremely terrifying.

And the Emperor's flying ship would use a lot of power to convert it into divine power through the array carved on the flying ship.

This was all due to Ye Changge's unintentional consumption of spiritual energy.

If his body recovered completely, he could absorb all the spiritual energy, demonic energy, and other energy within a few hundred miles in a breath's time.

This was the terror of a god-level expert.

This was also why he would need to comprehend his own domain and open up space for the rest of his cultivation.

If he did not do this, the god-level experts would always be limited by the lack of energy.

And if they created an alternate world in their bodies, they could make the energy grow endlessly, almost to the point of never being exhausted.

Now, the energy in the vicinity of Star Cluster City had greatly shrunk, which meant that Ye Changge's recovery speed had decreased.

There was no other energy source nearby, so for a moment, he also had a headache.

Could it be that he could only move to another place?

He had promised the Wang family that he would take over the territory of Star Cluster City. He was planning to use this land to exchange materials with the other forces.

At this moment, Wang Bing walked over excitedly.

"My lord, the envoy of the demon lord of the eastern region requests to see you!"

"Oh, I know. Tell him to wait. I'll go over later."

Ye Changge put away the magical equipment he had refined and tidied it up.

Soon, he met the envoy of the demon lord of the eastern region in the hall.

It was a woman. She was beautiful, tall, and elegant.

She bowed to Ye Changge. "My name is Su Yueming. Greetings, my Lord."

Her smiling face had an inexplicable friendliness.

"The demon lord is deeply sorry when he heard that we offended senior over the matter in Star Cluster City. These netherworld demon fruits are a token of our appreciation."

After saying this, she took out a few purple fruits that emitted a strange aura.

"These are all treasures that the demon lord has kept for many years. Hearing that senior needs them, he specially instructed us to send them over as soon as possible."

Su Yueming's words were watertight. She had been expressing her apology and even emphasized the eagerness of the demon lord of the eastern region in her words.

Ye Changge suddenly had some interest in the demon lord of the eastern region.

What kind of expert could command such a subordinate?

Seeing the three netherworld demon fruits, Ye Changge's eyes lit up.

He could clearly feel that each fruit had a pure vitality.

Such a netherworld demon fruit could be worth his one month of natural recovery.

These were all good things.

As expected of the demon lord, he was generous and imposing.

Others could not even get a single netherworld demon fruit, yet she casually took out three.

One had to know that not every netherworld demon fruit could give birth to life force.

Now that these three netherworld demon fruits had given birth to life force, it was enough to show how high the grade was.
