Everyone present saw the changes taking place in the Astral Realm.
Miranda had already assud a battle-ready stance, like a leopard coiled to spring at its prey at any mont.
Vera’s chewing sped up by several beats. Her eyes seed to glow with a faint green light as she stared fixedly at the Astral Realm ahead, looking exactly like a wildcat that had caught the scent of blood.
Vincent also put away his casual, relaxed deanor. His gaze narrowed into a sharp line.
Boom—!
An earth-shaking roar erupted from the direction of the Astral Realm, as though the entire starsea were trembling.
Mist-like astral energy surged up and down, and seven-colored radiance expanded violently, like a gigantic flower bud in the midst of blooming.
"Now—go!"
Daniel shouted, and his entire body transford into a streak of light, shooting straight forward.
Jas, Dustin, Mosi, and Camille followed close behind him. Five beams of light tore through the void so quickly that they did not even have ti to leave afterimages.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—!
Almost at the sa instant, thousands of demi-sages moved together.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—!
Like a swarm of ignited arrows, they plunged into the Astral Realm from all directions.
The Astral Realm had opened.
"Clear out the outer region first."
Daniel’s speed did not decrease. A sharp light flashed in his eyes.
This was the strategy they had decided on long ago. Only those holding a Scroll of Astral Prosperity could enter the depths of the Astral Realm, and such scrolls were absurdly rare. Even an Eternal Sage could not obtain one out of thin air. It all depended on the favor of fate.
Therefore, the opportunities in the depths could be set aside for now. In any case, very few people could enter.
It was better to sweep the outer region clean first.
As for his teammates, they could scatter and search for treasures on their own.
If they encountered trouble or found sothing valuable, they could use the special communication items Dustin had given them to call one another.
Those items could both transmit ssages and perform fixed-point teleportation, making them extrely practical.
It was said that certain special factions had developed them specifically for unique worlds like the Astral Realm.
...
Daniel plunged headfirst into the Astral Realm.
Seven petal-shaped planes imdiately appeared before his eyes—red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and violet. Each petal was absurdly vast, stretching across tens of billions of miles.
At the very center surrounded by the seven petals lay the legendary core of the Astral Realm.
He chose the violet plane and flew into it.
The mont he landed, he instinctively spread out his mind power, only for his brows to furrow.
The Laws of the newborn Astral Realm were a complete ss. The mont his mind power was released, it was torn apart and scattered in all directions. He could not detect anything at all.
"So I can only rely on my eyes."
He clicked his tongue. This was a little troubleso.
He had never learned any divine-eye secret arts, nor did he possess any scouting-type treasures.
Thousands of demi-sage rank beings descended into the various planes one after another.
They were all the top ruthless figures of their respective universes. The gap in strength between them was extrely small, and none of them were much slower than the others.
Daniel even saw several demi-sage rank beings from other universes fly past right under his nose.
"I’ll keep a low profile for now and figure out the situation first."
He restrained his exposed killing intent and silently blended into this unfamiliar land like a leopard withdrawing its claws.
...
"Boss Faustus chose the violet region, so I’ll choose red."
Jas took out a small disc. Several faint points of light were marked on it, representing the rough positions of his companions.
After calculating Daniel’s location, he turned and flew toward the red plane.
Mosi chose blue, Dustin chose green, and Camille chose cyan.
Those most eye-catching top demi-sages each chose a different color, scattering across the realm like pieces on a chessboard.
Daniel explored the violet land.
He had to admit, the outer region of the Astral Realm was indeed wondrous and dazzling.
The sky was a riot of colors, like an overturned palette.
The earth was rugged and cracked. Between the fragnts of landmasses surged chaotic torrents. If one was even slightly careless, they would be swept inside and reduced to nothing, not even bones remaining.
"I also need to be careful of Chaotic Essence."
He slowed his steps and raised his guard to the highest level.
Before long, the sound of fierce combat ca from ahead. Thunderous explosions shook the area so violently that even the rubble beneath his feet was jumping.
"Soone’s there!"
Daniel’s eyes lit up. He decisively rushed toward the source of the sound.
At a ti like this, people would not easily make a move.
If soone had started fighting, then there was a high chance sothing good had appeared.
The greater the commotion, the more powerhouses were drawn over.
When Daniel arrived, two demi-sages from different universes were locked in a fierce battle.
These two were worthy of being peak existences in their own universes. The shockwaves from their clash alone were enough to give even a low-grade Divine-grade powerhouse a hard ti.
Daniel did not intervene. His gaze swept past them and landed on a seven-colored band of light floating in midair.
The band of light shimred brilliantly, like a rainbow bridge descending from the heavens.
"That is... the power of Law?"
His eyes suddenly brightened.
To the native beings of this starsea, this thing could improve their comprehension of Laws and had imasurable value for constructing the sage rank.
But to him, this thing could be converted into divine energy!
He was still far away from his small goal of ten trillion. This was sothing he had to obtain.
The two battling powerhouses were clearly well aware that this thing would attract the greed of others.
They deliberately expanded their battlefield, enveloping the band of light within the range of their fight.
Anyone who wanted to take advantage of the situation and snatch it would first have to pass through their firepower.
Them fighting each other was one thing, but they would never allow soone else to reap the benefits while they exhausted themselves.
One of them shouted while fighting,
"I’ve already called for support! If you don’t leave now, you won’t be able to leave later!"
"There are plenty of opportunities in the outer region. Do you have to fight for this one?"
The other sneered.
"You think you’re the only one with support? I called people too!"
"It’s just a strand of Law power. Wouldn’t everything be fine if you handed it over to ?"
"Then it seems there’s nothing to discuss?"
"Nonsense! I clearly saw it first, and you barged in halfway. Now you want to get it for free?"
"Dream on!"
Boom!
Rumble—!
The two fought until their eyes turned red. Sacred light and elental fragnts scattered in all directions.
At that mont, nearby powerhouses arrived one after another, but each newcor was stopped by those who ca after them.
In short, no one was going to obtain that band of Law easily.
Daniel looked at this farce and suddenly smiled.
With a turn of his wrist, a Holy Grail flickering with light appeared out of thin air in his palm—
The Voidbound Grail!
A deep-blue radiance of spaceti Law flowed like ripples along the rim of the grail, exuding an ancient pressure that made even the soul tremble uncontrollably.
Buzz, buzz, buzz—!
Invisible Law ripples spread from the mouth of the grail, like a tear of starlight falling into a silent lake.
The ripples expanded layer by layer, instantly enveloping this entire stretch of heaven and earth.
The dozens of demi-sages present all froze at once and instinctively raised their heads, looking toward the Holy Grail suspended high in the air.
It hovered there quietly, its mouth facing downward, like an inverted do of heaven—cold, indifferent, and majestic.
Before they could react—
"Celestial Grasp!"
A heaven-covering hand descended from above.
Within its palm, layer upon layer of world projections surged like countless worlds overturning at once. A vast and mighty force stirred up wind and clouds, as though even the void itself would be crushed into powder beneath that hand.
