As he approached, he saw that there was an earthfire quietly burning in the center of the refining room. On the southern wall, there were different refining molds, big sabers and axes, small to the size of daggers, and on the wall facing the door, there was a set of steps for refining. Although it was large, it contained a lot of essence.

"It seems like when I was refining this Minute Sublime Flower Palace, this grandmaster refiner invested the most into the refining room. The things and layout inside are enough to save me a lot of effort, but I don't know when my refining level will reach this stage." Han Xiao lamented.

Now that he thought about it, his refining skills were only limited to refining his own Spirit Treasure, while the creator of the Tiny Hua Palace was already able to refine such a treasure. The disparity was too great.

After circling around the room to familiarize himself with the furnishings and the temperature of the Earth Flame, Han Xiao took out the materials Xiao Ke Er and the others bought for him from his storage ring and placed them one by one.

From left to right, there was a large chunk of black iron ore, copper ore, gold crystals, a small chunk of jade blood crystals, a circle of golden threads, and a piece of iron wood. In the last wooden box, there was a fire type beast spirit crystal.

After putting the materials away, Han Xiao went to the side and started to choose a mold. Because he had created the Empyrean Terminus Sword Technique himself, he planned to still use the sword refining technique and find a few sword mold from the mold. After thinking for a while, Han Xiao picked up a medium length sword mold and placed it on a table in the middle of the refining room.

After choosing the mold, Han Xiao closed his eyes and thought for a while before taking out the Mystical Iron Essence Stones, Blood Jade Crystals, the golden silk and Beast Soul Crystals and placing them away. Then, he kept the other items back into his storage ring.

"Although the temperature of this Earth Flame is high, it isn't as high as my Spirit Chilling Sacred Flame. I'm also not very familiar with this Earth Flame, so I might as well use the Spirit Chilling Sacred Flame." After saying that, Han Xiao waved his hand and summoned the Spirit Charming Holy Fire, wrapping the black iron ore in front of him with it and carefully melting it.

Han Xiao started to refine his own Spirit Weapon, and on the other side of the garden, Xi Yun saw a place shrouded in white mist, and knew that it should be the Heavenly Dipper Death Formation that Xuan Sheng had set up, so he didn't continue to look at it from the side. At the same time, he drew out the formation pattern of the Heavenly Dipper Death Formation in his mind, and thought about the method to break it.

As time passed, the sounds of battle and the clashing of weapons could be heard from within the formation. A chilling aura enveloped the entire garden. Even if one wasn't in the formation, they could guess that it would be extremely tragic.

A white flag was suddenly erected in the middle of the formation. After seeing this, Xi Yun knew that Xuan Sheng and the rest could no longer hold on and immediately shouted, "Thirty-six Astral Novas listen to my command, close the formation."

Upon hearing the voice of Xuan Sheng, the people who had formed the killing formation immediately dispersed. The white fog that shrouded the formation began to disperse, revealing Xuan Sheng's group within.

At this time, although Xuan Sheng and the others weren't heavily injured, they all looked extremely miserable. The one hundred and eight people that made up the 36 Astral Stars also looked exhausted. Obviously, they had spent a great deal of effort to maintain this array formation.

"Prince Xi Yun, were you the one who asked us to stop the formation?" When Xuan Sheng came out and saw Xi Yun, he frowned and asked.

"Han Xiao has gone to refine a Spirit Treasure, so he told me to look after you guys. I think you guys have reached your limits today, so we can continue cultivating until tomorrow." Xi Yun said as he took a step forward.

"But …" After hearing Xi Yun's words, Xuan Sheng hesitated for a moment, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by Xi Yun.

"Don't say anything to me … but, with your current condition, if you continue to fail to make any progress, on the contrary, it is extremely likely that one of you will be seriously injured. Since I promised Han Xiao to look after you, I will naturally need to look after your bodies as well, so that you won't suffer any serious injuries because of this formation." Xi Yun said.

He looked at the fatigue in everyone's eyes and knew that Xi Yun was right. He nodded his head and said, "Xuan Sheng understands, we'll bring everyone back to rest now." After saying that, he waved his hand to let the other members of the party disperse. Then, he turned around and headed back to his own room.

"Phew, the black iron ore is harder to melt than I thought. It took me a whole day to melt it." Looking at the Mystical Iron Essence Ore Liquid Han Xiao that was quietly flowing in front of him, he let out a light breath, feeling that the source energy in his body was insufficient to swallow two Soul Accumulating Pills to continue melting the next ingredient.

In the blink of an eye, another three days had passed. In these three days, Han Xiao was in the refining room refining his Divine Soul Equipment while Xuan Sheng and the others were in the process of adapting and training their Heavenly Dipper Annihilation Array. Everything was done in an orderly manner, until the evening of the third day when Xi Yun received the news that the Cloud Army had already arrived at the western gorge.

When they received this news, they immediately informed them to go to the front line to defend. Jiang Yao and the others also knew how difficult it was, so they quickly assembled a team and, as soon as they arrived at the western gorge, they saw an army of around two hundred thousand soldiers outside the western gorge. Although the number of soldiers they were wearing was not as great as the number of low-grade spirit artifacts, they still felt a strong sense of threat.

"Heavens, their soldiers are all wearing low quality Spirit Treasures. With this kind of strength, unless we activate the Heavenly Dipper Annihilation Array, there is no chance of victory." Benin looked at the army that had suddenly appeared and said in surprise.

"The important thing now is to find out what they're here for." Xiao Wei coughed lightly as he came forward and asked, "I am the grand general of the Xiao family. May I know what advice you have come to the western gorge for?"

"A small army like the Xiao family does not have the qualifications for us to answer. Let the biggest steward like you come out." Xuan Yuan disdainfully said as he looked at Xiao Ya.

"I'm the biggest manager here, what can I do for you, friend?" Carefree Gorge suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and asked again.

Seeing that Xiao He had once again stepped forward, Xuan Yuan unhappily waved his hand and said, "I already said that you don't have the qualifications, so hurry up and make you speak up. Otherwise, this general won't mind removing your so-called Xiao family army."

"Bastard, you're looking down on people too much. If they were to really fight, I don't know who killed who." Jiang Yao said coldly.

"Hmph, you actually dare to say such words to me? You truly do not know your place." Just as Xuan Yuan was about to wave his hand to signal Yun Jun to attack, he saw two figures running towards them. The one in front was none other than Xi Yun.

Seeing Yun Jun confronting the men from the Xiao family from far away, Xi Yun quickened his footsteps and shouted out his orders, "Xuanyuan Yidao, don't do anything!"

After hearing Xi Yun's voice and seeing his familiar figure, Xuanyuan Yidao no longer showed any disdain on his face. He immediately got down from the spirit beast's back and knelt in the direction of Xi Yun and said loudly, "I pay my respects to Your Highness the crown prince. May His Highness live forever and may he ascend the Immortal World as soon as possible."

"Greetings, Your Highness." After Xuanyuan Yidao knelt down, the two hundred thousand soldiers behind Xuanyuan Yidao also spoke in unison. Their orderly voices pierced through the clouds and one could even hear the sounds of worship from afar.

Quickly running to Xuan Yuan, Xi Yun had completely disregarded the Xiao family's troops behind him. He nodded his head and said, "Mn, you may get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness." The two hundred thousand soldiers stood up at the same time after speaking, even their footsteps were orderly, as if they were just one person.

Although the Xiao family's troops had always been known as united, in truth, apart from being able to unite when forming the Celestial Killing Array and the Four Symbols Derivation Array, they had never been as united and orderly as the Yun army, not even when Xiao Ba Cliff came.

Actually, the reason the Yun Army was so united and neat was because they had been brainwashed after entering the Yun Army. All the soldiers had long since lost their sense of self; they were alive for Xi Yun and had died for Xi Yun.

"Your Highness, the two hundred thousand strong army has arrived. Please enlighten me." Although his cultivation was at the late stage of the Spirit Transformation realm, he was extremely respectful in front of Xi Yun, who was only at the early stage of the Awakening Realm. This sort of respect came from the bottom of his heart, as if he should respect Xi Yun like this and would not have any dissatisfaction with him.

"It's been hard on you all. Follow me." After speaking, Xi Yun prepared to lead the group back to the Tiny Hua Palace, but when he turned around and saw Xiao Hei and the others, he lightly said, "I am the crown prince of the Ao Sky Emperor Dynasty, Xi Yun. These are my direct troops, can you give us a way to pass?"

"The crown prince of the Ao Sky Empire?" Hearing Han Xiao's words, the pupils of Jiang Yao and the rest shrunk as they didn't understand the meaning behind Xi Yun's words.

"Grand Army, Prince Xi Yun is a friend of Commander Han. Prince Xi Yun is here to help Commander Han, so he doesn't have any hostility towards the Xiao family, so please withdraw your troops and let them pass." Xuan Sheng took a step forward and explained.

It was obvious that he did not expect Han Xiao to become friends with the Crown Prince of the Ao Sky Imperial Court, and that Xi Yun had called the army over for Han Xiao. After thinking for a moment, he waved his hand and said, "All generals listen to the order and return to the camp."

Seeing that Xiao He had ordered the troops to retreat, although Jiang Yao and the rest were unwilling, they did not dare to offend the people from the Ao Sky Emperor Empire. They could only gather their troops and return to the camp.

When they arrived at the Minute Na Hua Palace, Xi Yun made Xuanyuan Sing vow that they would set up camp nearby and follow Xuan Sheng back to the Minute Na Hua Palace.
