Clan Leader: My strength equals to that of the entire clan

However, sometimes resources alone weren’t enough for breakthroughs, natural talents also mattered.

Under the suppression of the Pangu Universe, several mid-tier Saint Forgemasters were unable to break through to become upper-tier Saint Forgemasters.

Unbeknownst to the Heavenly Heart Half Saint, this was the suppression of talent from the Pangu Universe!

The past Great Eras all had more and more powerhouses in the later stages. The number of high-level alchemists and artifact refiners increased because as the Great Era proceeded, the suppression on cultivators’ talents by the Pangu universe became weaker.

They who were in the information cocoon didn’t detect this at all.

If these artifact refiners were taken out, they were all individuals of extraordinary talent.

Regrettably, they were confined within the Pangu Universe.

“Are there no other artifact refiners in the Pangu Universe?”

The God-Breaking Spire was too important to the Heavenly Heart Half Saint for him to be willing to give up.

His words made the hierarchy of the Wan Sheng Sect look at each other. The Pangu Universe was so large and the number of high-level artifact refiners was fixed; where else could they be found!

“No, there should be another!”

A high-level official suddenly said.

All eyes landed on him and the pressure of the half saint made this Half Saint swallow hard.

In fact on this news, he also couldn’t be sure if it was true or not.

But by this time, he had no choice but to say his guess!

“Everyone should know about the Ye Family!”

“The Ye Family has many Holy Artifacts, and they are all of high level.”

“I’ve asked these Artifact Refiners, the Holy Artifacts of the Ye Family, they didn’t refine them.”

“So, within the Ye Family, there must also be a high-level Artifact Refiner; otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to supply so many Holy Artifacts!”

This news had no basis at all.

But it made some sense.

The Ye Family?

Even though the Heavenly Heart Half Saint had only just left his seclusion not long ago, he had also heard about the Ye Family, a power that suddenly rose in this Great Era.

However, he didn’t take the Ye Family too seriously.

In previous Great Eras, it wasn’t uncommon for a particular power to suddenly gain some kind of inheritance and rise quickly.

But these powers, without sufficient foundations, often enjoyed brief fame.

In the minds of the Heavenly Heart Half Saint and others, their long-established powers were ultimately superior.

“You all go to the Ye Family. ‘Invite’ this Artifact Refiner to come here!”

The word ‘invitation’ was said lightly by Heavenly Heart Half Saint, but it contained an energy that could not be refused.

The cultivators of the Wan Sheng Sect also understood what the sentence meant, if the Ye Family was obedient, they would be invited over.

If they were not obedient, they would be “invited” over!

The Half Saints were confident that the Ye Family would not risk offending the Wan Sheng Sect over an Artifact Refiner.

As for whether they would return after “inviting” them, it depended on the mood of the Wan Sheng Sect.

At this stage, if they really cultivated a high-tier Saint Forgemaster, the value to the Wan Sheng Sect was great.

The thought of the Ye Family wasn’t in their consideration at all.

For the Ye Family to be given the honour of having one of their Artifact Refiners borrowed by their Wan Sheng Sect is a privilege for them!

Meanwhile, in the Ye Family, Ye Fan’s breakthrough was nearing its end.

His already strong power had increased significantly once again.

Finally, Holy Power emerged within Ye Fan’s body.

Unfortunately, the intensity and quantity of this Holy Power left Ye Fan dissatisfied.

It simply could not compare with the power borrowed from the Chaos Orb.

Just after breaking through, Ye Fan’s cultivation level was only an early stage Semi-Saint.

Of course, Ye Fan’s Early Saint Stage was not the same as the ordinary Early Stage Semi-Saint.

Before the breakthrough, Ye Fan already had the ability to fight the mid-stage Semi-Saint.

Now after breaking through, Ye Fan suddenly felt the urge to find a peak Semi-Saint to test his power.

But now was not a good time for a fight, the most important thing now was to first increase the level of the Artifact Refiner.

“Jinlong, how goes the harvest?”

Now, the Artifact Refiners of the Ye Family, led by Ye Jinlong, have already become mid-tier Saint Forgemasters.

“Uncle, this legacy is incredibly powerful. We’ve gained a lot from it!”

As expected of a top-tier saint artifact refining legacy passed down from ancient times, in a very short period of time, it had given the artifact refiners of the Ye Family a significant boost in abilities.

Of course, these insights are now just laying a foundation.

Transforming this foundation into power will also take a bit of time.

However, what Ye Fan wants to do now is to turn their foundation into power in the shortest possible time.

Refining a Great Saint Artifact is the best opportunity to apply their theory into practice.

“Ye Family, go into seclusion!”

Refining a Great Saint Artifact is an essential task. Even Ye Fan, cannot afford to underestimate it.

All the Ye family cultivators have entered a vigilant state. Afterwards, Ye Fan, along with the Ye family’s artifact refiners, went to the Ye family’s artifact refining room.

The humongous artifact refining room can accommodate tens of thousands of artifact refiners for refining magical weapons at the same time.

The formations inside, all of which are arranged by Ye Fan himself, were high-grade Saint auxiliary formations, capable of maximizing the capabilities of Artifact Refiners.

“Jinlong, you’ll lead them in handling the materials.”

Various types of materials began to fly out from Ye Fan’s storage space.

These materials were of quite a low level, otherwise, people like Ye Jinlong wouldn’t be able to process them.

As for the truly high-grade materials gifted by the system, they were all with Ye Fan!

Without the system, even if the materials were sufficient, Ye Fan would simply be unable to refine a Great Saint Artifact.

Today, it is the system that is really making a move.

Ye Fan closed his eyes, calming his inner excitement.

It is hard for him to remain calm when he is about to get a Great Saint Artifact.

Time passed, and one by one, the materials were refined.

Eventually, Ye Fan opened his eyes.

“System, use the family Divine Artifact ascension opportunity. The target, the God-Beating Whip.”

With Ye Fan’s command, a mysterious aura began to emanate from him!

A Great Saint Artifact was already a configuration of the Saint Realm, considered to overshadow the Great Tao.

Even the Universal Will seemed to be stirred, as if it wanted to stop the birth of the Great Saint Artifact.

However, the next moment, the Universal Will inexplicably subsided.

The system, can resolve all issues.

Under the system’s super-control, even Ye Fan’s body had started to move!

A stream of artifact refining knowledge far beyond Ye Fan’s current comprehension kept emerging in his mind.

If he could fully grasp this knowledge, Ye Fan’s artifact refiner level could probably directly reach the Great Saint stage.

Such a pity, though. With these capabilities, Ye Fan could only use them now and was hardly able to understand much!

However, while Ye Fan was unable to grasp it, the Ye family’s artifact refiners had a lot to gain!

Even though they didn’t understand the majority of the operations performed.

Yet every move Ye Fan made brought them endless enlightenment as if they were understanding the so-called artifact refining techniques for the first time.

Every now and then, someone in the clan would close their eyes and fall into an epiphany.

Among them, Ye Jinlong, who had the highest ranking in artifact refining, continually experienced enlightenment and strived to retain his sanity, not to fall into an epiphany.

Given their current state, they probably could only experience epiphany once.

He wanted to understand as much as possible, to increase his foundation, and finally reach an epiphany.

That way, the harvest would be the greatest.

“I can’t have an epiphany yet!”

Ye Jinlong was continuously roaring in his heart.

Apart from Ye Jinlong, the choice of most artifact refiners was the same as Ye Jinlong’s.

However, sometimes an epiphany was not something they could control. Once they reached their limit, they would still fall into it.

Those who kept suppressing themselves from having an epiphany were probably just people from the Ye family.

If other artifact refiners knew about this, they would probably weep tears of jealousy.

This is too extravagant!

After this time, the level of Ye family’s artifact refiners will at least be promoted by one rank.

And the ones with lower refinement levels would be able to advance even further.

With Ye Fan’s techniques, various materials were continuously incorporated into the God-Beating Whip.

The essence of the God-Beating Whip was also rapidly elevating!
