"Stellar Sect!?"
"True Person, what exactly is the situation?"
In the Void Divine Realm, Li Qingshan and Alkaid appeared at once, inquiring about the truth from Li Hanqiu, the only one who knew the details of that year.
However...
Li Hanqiu shook his head, "I don't know either. On one hand, the timing isn't right. There are still a dozen or so years until the century we agreed upon, and while so discrepancy in ti is expected, this is too much. On the other hand... even if a powerhouse from Northern Sea Star were to return, they would simply twist through the cosmos to co back. Why would there be any need to use such a troubleso thod as the Stellar Sect?"
"So... if it's not a powerhouse from Northern Sea Star, could it be the Moon Demon Empire?"
The expression on Alkaid's face beca slightly solemn.
"It's unlikely to be the Moon Demon Empire. The Moon Demon Empire of yesteryears was also incredibly powerful, possessing production technologies far more advanced than anything we could imagine: various kinds of battle armor and warships, one after another. Among those, the top cosmic warships, just like the Hollow Void, had the ability to twist space. They didn't need to rely on the Stellar Sect to traverse space."
Li Hanqiu continued, his gaze like traversing the void, looking towards Cangwu Land, "Now, we can only wait for these Stellar Sects to fully open."
He appeared sowhat serious, "And judging from the current situation, the good news is that there are no Hollow Void Realm powerhouses coming through the Stellar Sect. No matter how strong, there is a limit. The bad news is... their Stellar Sect technology is far more perfected than ours, to the point that unless we choose to destroy the Stellar Sects, there is no way to forcibly sever their connection."
"Wait."
Hearing what Li Hanqiu had said, Alkaid couldn't really say anything else.
Li Hanqiu himself didn't know the specifics of the current situation.
In such circumstances, waiting indeed beca the only option.
Only this feeling...
Alkaid was very unaccustod and even more so, uncomfortable with it.
He withdrew his consciousness from the Void Divine Realm, his gaze falling upon that ancient tree within the Spiritual World.
To be exact, it focused on the branch of "Artifact Refining".
As his Artifact Refining Technology made a breakthrough and he ascended from Artifact Sage to a realm he himself didn't know how the outside world referred to, a new divine skill also erged.
A kind...
Compared to "Master of Myriad Spirits - Spiritual Treasure Chapter", which was sowhat of a superfluous talent for enlightening, this skill was slightly more effective.
"Entering the Way."
Alkaid declared softly.
Entering the Way.
Any Spiritual Treasure made from top-notch materials, or those used by top-notch powerhouses, contain the essence of "Dao". The master of the Spiritual Treasure could use this divine skill to guide the Spiritual Treasure to activate its inherent Dao essence, attempting to Entering the Way.
Should they succeed in Entering the Way, the top-notch Spiritual Treasure would transform in an instant, advancing to beco a Dao Artifact.
Should they fail...
The spirit of the treasure would be lost.
Not only would the Spiritual Treasure risk being downgraded, but in a severe case, it could be directly damaged.
"It's akin to Artifact Refining enhancents, allowing one to take a gamble... Successful enhancent ans the level increases by one, upgrading the Spiritual Treasure to a Dao Artifact; failure ans the level decreases by one, or it might be directly damaged..."
Alkaid mused in his heart.
But...
A Dao Artifact.
That was equipnt on par with Hollow Void Level powerhouses.
Moreover...
It seed even within the Hollow Void Level, they were extrely precious.
Nothing like the dispensable Spiritual Treasures for Golden Core users.
If he could enhance and produce a Dao Artifact...
Perhaps he could face whatever crisis that might erge with more ease, right?
His gaze then fell upon the Space-splitting Disk.
With his current understanding of "Dao Artifacts" and mastery in Artifact Refining, he could clearly discern the strong Dao essence emanating from this top-notch Spiritual Treasure.
It did not fall short when compared to so true Dao Artifacts he recognized.
After all...
The materials used for this top-notch Spiritual Treasure were too solid.
The Chaos Heavenly Ruler was slightly inferior, but not by much.
However, other Spiritual Treasures like the Primordial Clock were far behind in Dao essence.
So treasures were even completely devoid of any Dao essence.
After pondering for a mont, Alkaid selected one Spiritual Treasure to take out.
His mind filled with the intricate wonders of "Entering the Way", and in the next mont, he placed his hand on the Spiritual Treasure. Accompanied by the lead of divine skill, the Spiritual Treasure seed to be activated; its latent potential swiftly unleashed, ripples spreading out as if about to resonate in a peculiar way with the surrounding cosmos...
This resonance...
Alkaid, whose spiritual realm was nearly at the level of a True Spirit, quickly noticed sothing.
Reality!
An unprecedented mystery!
That was where the foundations for the transformations of all things and the roots of the world lie.
Whether it was life, aging, sickness, death, the rising sun, the setting moon, the living and transforming of all things—all of it could be encompassed within this power.
Or rather, it was because these powers existed that life, aging, sickness, death, the rising sun, the setting moon, and the cyclic transformations of the cosmos occurred.
"The Way!"
Enlightened, Alkaid exclaid in his heart, "It's the Great Dao Principles!"
"Crack!"
This resonance lasted only for a mont before a faint sound interrupted Alkaid from his enlightennt.
He looked down...
It cracked.
The Spiritual Treasure in his hand was as if shattered by soone, splitting on the spot.
It was as if the most critical factor had been sucked out, causing the originally intact Spiritual Treasure to be directly damaged.
Although he was sowhat prepared, his lips couldn't help but twitch.
In his mind, it was as if mories he wished to forget had been activated.
"Enhancent failed, equipnt shattered."
It took him a while before he shifted his gaze to the other spiritual treasures.
"The resonance with the Dao..."
Among all the spiritual treasures, only the Space-splitting Disk and the Chaos Heavenly Ruler had a slightly stronger resonance with the Dao.
The other spiritual treasures...
He could only gamble.
He estimated that the success rate was at most around 1%.
Too low.
For a mont, Alkaid couldn't help but turn his attention to the Chaos Heavenly Ruler.
"I wonder how much chance of strengthening there is for a top-tier spiritual treasure with Dao resonance so strong it almost reaches the level of a Dao Artifact."
Although it would be a pity if such a treasure, which could be transford into a Dao Artifact after disassembly, were to be damaged, but...
Alkaid still decided to give it a try.
With a thought, the "Entering the Way" divine skill was once again activated.
The Chaos Heavenly Ruler, this top-tier spiritual treasure, was fully activated, and ripples far clearer than before fluttered outwards, the resonance that seemingly touched upon the essence of the operation of all things once again appeared and was perceived by Alkaid, who was very close by.
Compared to just touching upon the concept of "Great Dao Principles" before, this ti, all concepts of the "Great Dao Principles" were undoubtedly much clearer.
Caught in this resonating state, Alkaid seed to vaguely sense the flow of five Great Dao principles: life, death, illusion, mind, and soul.
It was also because of this unique sensation, coupled with his suprely skilled artifact refining techniques, that he suddenly realized why the Chaos Heavenly Ruler that used so many top-tier materials ultimately failed to be turned into a "Dao Artifact."
Compatibility!
The materials were too haphazardly used and not compatible at all!
As a result, many of the materials' inherent wonders couldn't achieve a synergy where the whole was greater than the sum of its parts, and ensuring even that the outco was equal to the sum of inputs was difficult, ultimately...
Leading to a failure in refining.
Just like now, after this top-tier spiritual treasure attempted to "Enter the Way," five different Great Dao Principles erged.
What kind of hodgepodge was this?
The result...
As expected!
"Crack!"
As the familiar sound rang out once again, the top-tier spiritual treasure, stacked with a large number of top-tier materials and resonating with Dao so strongly that it rivaled a Dao Artifact, also cracked and fell apart in a series of soft noises.
As the spiritual treasure shattered, Alkaid instantly snapped back to clarity from the resonance that seed to have almost touched upon the "Great Dao."
Looking at the Chaos Heavenly Ruler, now devoid of any wonders, Alkaid couldn't help but lant sorrowfully, "What a sin."
It was beyond the description of a waste of heavenly materials.
The artifact refiner who fashioned this top-tier spiritual treasure should be taken out and shot.
Glancing once more at the Space-splitting Disk...
He dared not waste it any further.
The spiritual treasures refined by the artifact refiners of the Cangwu Great World were much inferior.
The only reason why they could create such spiritual treasures was purely because of the superior quality of the materials.
For the artifact refiners of the Cangwu Great World, it's like a chef who has top-notch ingredients; he is deed fit if he could bring out the original flavor of these materials, as for making these ingredients even more delicious...
Don't even think about it.
If the artifact refiners of a hundred years ago had to use ordinary spiritual treasure materials to do refining, the entire Cangwu Realm would probably not produce a single spiritual treasure.
"Enough, I can only reforge the Space-splitting Disk when I have so free ti, consider splitting it into two, or even three... then use 'Entering the Way' to enhance them. If successful, I might even acquire two or three Dao Artifacts at once."
Alkaid decided to retain this talent for himself.
...
Just as Alkaid was studying the spiritual treasures hoping to upgrade them to Dao Artifacts...
Having sent ssages a few months ago, the Limitless Star Palace actively coordinated with the coordinates on the other side of the Stellar Sect, believing the arrival now ca from the powerful individuals on Northern Sea Star.
After a month's ti, the opening of the Stellar Sect finally ca to a close.
Along with the spatial ripples spreading outwards in rings, the Stellar Sect was finally activated.
At that mont, everyone's hearts hung in their throats.
The people who would erge from it would directly determine whether the Cangwu Great World was facing an opportunity or disaster.
On the other side, they did not wait for too long.
Less than half a minute after the Stellar Sect was fully opened, figure after figure materialized from inside.
Everyone's eyes widened in anticipation, so even circulated the Golden Core's power within their bodies, ready for the worst.
However...
As the first arrivals revealed their appearance and aura, the tense atmosphere quickly dispersed.
Qiao An couldn't suppress the exuberant surprise in his voice as he shouted, "Elder He La!? Is that you!?"
The other Golden Cores also revealed smiles: "That's... Elder Susan!? I recognize her; I fought alongside her against the Moon Demon Empire's invasion back in the day!"
"And Elder Yang Han... an elder of our Limitless Star Palace, they're all our elders from the Limitless Star Palace!"
"This is too good, too good indeed, our Limitless Star Palace will rise to greatness once more."
Amidst various cheers, many Golden Cores also used various thods to arrive at the site of the Stellar Sect.
From within the Stellar Sect, the cultivators of the Limitless Star Palace who ca out were also looking around nostalgically.
"The Cangwu Great World, it's been nearly a hundred years, we've finally co back; such a familiar and comfortable place."
"Although it's comfortable, it's quite inferior compared to the cultivational environnt of Northern Sea Star, where the vast power of the stars extracts the spiritual power right out of the void... If I had to choose, I'd still go back to Northern Sea Star..."
"That place may be conducive for cultivation, but in terms of comfort, it can't compare to the Cangwu Great World at all."
"If comfort was useful, countless beings from the surrounding great worlds wouldn't have gathered on Northern Sea Star."
Susan, He La, Yang Han, and others chatted amongst themselves, full of emotions.
After reflecting for a mont, He La dove into the agenda: "Alright, let's not forget the task we ca to the Cangwu Realm for."
"I know, to rebuild the Artifact Sect in Cangwu," answered Yang Han, with unrestrained envy, "Artifact Sect is really going to take off; who knows, from now on, all of us from the Cangwu lineage may look up to the Artifact Sect."
