Annihilating Star Dharma Assembly, the Dao Book Comes into Being!
"The Empire currently has seven major ancient roads. Assuming the First Hexagram of Ten Directions is accurate, the existing seven major ancient roads alone are simply insufficient to meet the needs of the entire Xuanling Star Domain."
"In the future, perhaps more large ancient roads will be added. I think we should build another star road starting from the Annihilating Star Corridor."
It's more convenient and saves a lot of costs.
"Assuming we can open it up and turn it into a large ancient road, it would be entirely possible for several new Emperor Lord Level families to emerge from it."
"Once it's built, it'll be hard for any of you here to be poor!"
On Crystal Island, in a private space, dozens of Star Mirror surrounded Zhao Xing, and many figures appeared in the Star Mirror.
Partners like Du Yun, Tuo Sen, and Young Lotus Fairy were all listening to Zhao Xing's plans for the future.
"Zhao Xing, what you're saying is all based on the premise that the Annihilating Star Corridor can be successfully developed, and that it must have sufficient value to become a large-scale ancient road."
"I'm not questioning you—but the development of the Annihilating Star Corridor does indeed face many challenges." Someone raised some questions; he was Qi Tian from the Four Seasons Palace.
Zhao Xing turned to face the Star Mirror where Qi Tian was. "Brother Qi is right. I was just about to give everyone a brief description of some of the objective problems we have encountered in developing this ancient road."
"Smack!"
Zhao Xing snapped his fingers, and a three-dimensional map appeared in front of everyone.
It is a long Star-Shatter Belt, with some parts rotating irregularly, like a twisted tunnel. The Star Shatter collide with each other, and explosions seem to happen all the time. There are always things that suddenly disappear or appear.
"The first problem is the star-shifting problem."
"The Annihilating Star Corridor is a collection of ruins formed after the collapse of top-tier Realm Star and Yin-Yang Star."
"Within its range, the Sun Star and Yin Star are rarely seen."
"As we all know, establishing a permanent survival base in the Desolate Territory is inseparable from the Yin Yang Twin Stars."
"Otherwise, not only will we be unable to grow food, but the strength of cultivators will also decline."
"This results in the Reincarnation Realm being able to exert the strength of the Dao Domain Realm, and the Dao Domain Realm being able to exert the strength of the Source Origin Realm."
Yin and Yang give rise to the Five Elements, and the harmony of Yin and Yang gives rise to all things. This is an unchanging truth of the universe. From the perspective of the laws of life development, areas without the presence of the Sun Star and Yin Star cannot be called habitable territories, and the birth of life there is extremely difficult.
The cost of growing food supplies would rise sharply.
From the perspective of cultivation, the Five Elements Dao Domain Realm and the Yin Yang Dao Domain Realm already demonstrate that the Yin-Yang Great Dao is an indispensable foundation.
In territories where these two great paths are absent or not manifest, it's as if two load-bearing walls in the cultivation system have been knocked down or one of them has been removed.
Imagine a Reincarnation Realm expert suddenly losing their experiences in the Five Elements Dao Domain Realm and the Life and Death Dao Domain Realm, greatly reducing their understanding of the Yin and Yang Daos. Naturally, their strength would decrease significantly.
Therefore, the two top-tier celestial bodies, the Solar Yang Lunar Yin, are not only the foundation for survival, but also indispensable for spiritual cultivation.
This is why the theory of the Time Faction frequently mentions the "Extreme Star" and regards finding the Extreme Star as the ultimate goal. Because the Extreme Star inevitably provides the strongest insights into the Dao.
"The most cost-effective way to build a survival base in the Desolate Territory is to relocate stars and establish a constellation."
"In the spiritual energy realm, moving stars is a very simple matter. Even a Dao Domain Realm can easily move the Sun Star and the Yin Star within the spiritual energy realm."
"But in the Desolate Territory, the difficulty of transporting becomes greater."
"Of course, the most important thing is the characteristics of the Annihilating Star Corridor."
"Once a new Sun Star Yin Star is moved here, it will collapse within a few thousand years."
"Therefore, shifting stars has become a major problem."
After a pause, Zhao Xing zoomed in on the map, focusing on a small Star Continent.
"Look, everyone, this is a small survival base established by the four major families. There are no Solar Yang Yin Star around. Their solution is to replace the Yin Yang Twin Stars with large Daoist soldiers, Solar Star Lamps, and Taiyin Star Lamps."
"The Yin-Yang Great Dao, which exists through the base Magic Array and Dao soldiers, stabilizes the surrounding spacetime, transforming the chaotic Dao into a Dao that can be sensed and utilized, and turning the chaotic void into a stable void."
"The basic cost of such a small survival base, just considering the installation of two types of star lamps and the Yin-Yang Rotation Magic Array, is 880,000 Five Emperor Coins, not even including maintenance costs."
"And its service life is only 10,000 years, after which it must be completely replaced."
Qi Tian, ever the opportunist, continued to ask, "Brother Zhao, if we're going to follow the methods of the four great families, I'm afraid the money we've raised so far will be used up before the Third Era of the Desolate Territory even begins, right?"
Zhao Xing joked, "Of course, if we followed the approach of those four idiots, no amount of money would be enough. Their withdrawal was precisely because they saw it as a bottomless pit of money."
"Hahaha~" Everyone burst into laughter.
Only Zhao Xing would dare to call the four major families idiots.
Although it's unclear where Zhao Xing's confidence comes from, it's still quite exhilarating to just vent his anger.
Qi Tian joked, "Brother Zhao, they think the same way about us, hahaha."
Zhao Xing glanced at Qi Tian.
This guy's become addicted to being fed!
This line wasn't in the script he gave Qi Tian.
At this moment Xu Youling, the second person to offer her food, chimed in. "So, Brother Zhao has a better way, huh?"
"Yes, of course we can't do that," Zhao Xing replied. "The Star Corridor is ultimately an environmental issue."
"How can we possibly withstand it with Daoist soldiers and Magic Array?"
"The actions of the four major families are like trying to control a raging river by blindly building levees and raising the height of their own walls."
"In my opinion, the Magic Array they used was ingenious, and the Daoist soldiers were also of high quality, but from the overall perspective, they were not using their energy in the right place at all."
Lou Lanxiao wholeheartedly agreed. Although he was a physician, he could see some drawbacks in the development of the Annihilating Star Corridor.
He also felt that the four major families were like cutting off the foot when it hurt, or the hand when it hurt. Now, there was no other way but to cut off the head and sell off the head with tears in their eyes to get out of this mess.
Qi Tian is the Agricultural Official of the Reincarnation Realm in the Four Seasons Palace, and he also has profound insights into governing the region.
The construction of Desolate Territory base is not a simple environmental issue that can be solved by a single method. Places like the Annihilating Star Corridor are even more complex.
It's not that simple: today's severe drought Changing the Season to Rain Water, but tomorrow Rain Water will reverse to Great Heat.
In fact, the four major families were also helpless. They were not lacking in Agricultural Official talents. Apart from management issues, the Annihilating Star Corridor difficulties were indeed complex structural environmental problems.
It encompasses a range of issues including transformation, reconstruction, combating natural disasters, Hou Transformation, and temporal and spatial changes.
Looking back at the development path of the four major families over the past seven thousand years, they were also forced step by step to this stupid method, and finally gave up their persistence in despair.
"I've done the math. If we dismantle their base and rearrange it according to my method, we can create ten times the number of bases."
"As for the specific construction methods, I won't go into detail here, as it would take up everyone's time. Once the Dharma assembly is held and the project resumes, those who are interested can come and see for themselves."
"Next, I'll talk about the second objective issue."
Zhao Xing waved his hand, and the scene changed again, with seven Realm Star lined up in the void of the universe.
These are seven Realm Star, also artificial bases.
Seven Realm Star revolve around a Sun Star and a Yin Star, with World Stabilizing Tower existing around them.
"This is an example of a successful star relocation through the Annihilating Star Corridor."
"Although it wasn't a large number, the four major families were wealthy and could hire powerful Agricultural Official. They successfully moved about forty-nine pairs of binary star systems over."
"However, only one-third of them remain now; the rest have all naturally deteriorated."
Zhou Gang, a martial artist and Martial Office officer who followed Zhao Xing on the Taoyang Star Continent, couldn't help but ask, "Lord Zhao, did they suffer a disaster? How could they have lost so many?"
"I suppose so." Zhao Xing pointed. "Look, in a certain year, this entire binary star system that we brought over was suddenly swallowed up by the void layer."
Everyone looked over and saw that the void suddenly distorted and the Sun Star quickly went out.
Then, as if a curtain had collapsed, the seven Realm Star spun rapidly and fell into the void Abyss as the Yin Yang Twin Stars disappeared.
Without any warning.
Even the base's alarms didn't go off.
"According to the disaster report, the Blue Ice No. 42 Binary Star System was swallowed up by the Space-Time Distortion of the Annihilating Star Corridor."
"Such situations are common in the Annihilating Star Corridor."
"This is also the second objective problem to be solved."
Qi Tian once again broke free from the script, genuinely feeling puzzled. "Brother Zhao, what's going on? Why did this suddenly happen?"
Zhao Xing also decided to release some information, since most of his partners were Agricultural Official, and he couldn't just keep talking about PPTs; he had to bring out something real to reassure everyone.
"If you ask me, it still comes down to the location."
"The four major families established their survival base in a spatiotemporally unstable region of the Image Manifestation Layer."
"It's like we built our houses in an area prone to land degradation."
"Due to the nature of the Annihilating Star Corridor, this instability in spacetime is disordered and occurs without prior warning. It involves the Space-Time Great Dao, and even the Fate Master who are disturbed cannot accurately predict it."
"As for the underlying cause, it should be the dramatic change in spacetime caused by the Void Dark River."
"I have seen similar experiences in the World Transfer Tower. If any of you fellow Daoists are interested, you can look up the Li River of Stars Transformation that occurred in the Tianyou Ancient Kingdom in history."
"The Tianyou Ancient Kingdom?" Du Yun also became interested, because he was from the Tianyou Ancient Kingdom (Du Yun believed that his memories of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom were not yet unlocked).
"Brother Zhao, is there a solution?" Yu Qing, the Minister of Agriculture of the Primordial Realm, couldn't help but ask. He was also the Minister of Agriculture of the Heavenly Time Sect, and he was the first in the Heavenly Time Sect's division during the selection conference.
Whenever someone Agricultural Official, they are always extremely curious when faced with a difficult environmental problem.
"Before the first objective problem is solved, there is no good solution to the second problem; we can only try to avoid it," Zhao Xing pondered. "Because the Li River of Stars Transformation is an unsolvable problem in history, lasting for two whole eras, and even the Demigod- level Agricultural Official couldn't solve it."
"I haven't inspected the Annihilating Star Corridor in person yet. It might not be that serious, but it's not easy to solve either."
The problem isn't actually that serious, but Zhao Xing doesn't want to give his partner too high expectations right now.
Zhao Xing clearly remembered that the corridor route was opened up in less than five hundred years after Ancient Hill of Antiquity took over.
The people of Ancient Hill of Antiquity not only did not lose money, but actually made a fortune before the site was even opened up.
Because if you go another 450 million astronomical units northwest of the Annihilating Star Corridor, several small ' Source Origin World ' will appear.
Within the Source Origin World, there are abundant non-renewable materials, all of which can be used as Source Origin Divine Weapon.
Materials for the "Reincarnation Divine Soldier"!
Of course, this is based on the premise that the time point has reached the beginning of the Third Era of the Desolate Territory, and the other two ancient roads, Sea Passage Ancient Road and Radiant Light Ancient Road, have been 80-90% completed.
The Ancient Hill of Antiquity possessed a wealth of experience and had discovered a section of the ancient path that overlapped with the Annihilating Star Ancient Road, which explained their rapid efficiency.
Zhao Xing doesn't have such high demands now. His goal is simple: to excavate the few Source Origin World on the Annihilating Star Ancient Road before the Third Era of the Desolate Territory.
As for digging through the entire area, he didn't want to do that, because once he reached the other side of the spiritual energy territory, he would inevitably encounter resistance from the local forces of that other spiritual energy territory, making a cross-domain war unavoidable.
The Annihilating Star Corridor is incredibly efficient, possessing a spacetime passage. Among the nine ancient routes, it is known as the "Ancient War Route," serving as the primary channel for the Great Emperor's military campaigns.
Zhao Xing could never monopolize the rights to this route; that would be suicidal. Therefore, once the excavation is nearly complete, selling the rights to this ancient road to the Empire is the most suitable option. He can then take the money and extricate himself from the battlefield of interests – that's the best choice.
"What is the third objective problem?" A voice interrupted Zhao Xing's thoughts.
Zhao Xing looked up and saw that Lord Lushan had joined the group chat at some point.
Lord Lushan was an expert, and Zhao Xing answered his questions much more rigorously.
"Martial Uncle, the third objective problem is actually a conclusion drawn from my subjective speculation. We probably won't be able to meet him in the short term."
"Tell me about it," said Lord Lushan with a slight smile.
Zhao Xing nodded, flicked his hand, and the map of the Annihilating Star Corridor immediately expanded and changed direction.
At this moment, the Annihilating Star Corridor looked like a rough ribbon on a jade stone, with a Great Rift appearing about 300 million star units to the northwest.
There was nothing there. Zhao Xing wrote three annotations on this cross-section:
The spiritual energy index appears to be zero.
The number of generations for maintaining the grade is zero.
Suspected to be a layer of Annihilation Chapter.
Lord Lushan seemed thoughtful. "Are you saying that the end of the Annihilating Star Corridor is a void region that transforms from the Image Manifestation Layer to the Annihilation Chapter layer? How did you come to this conclusion?"
Zhao Xing waved his hand again, and bar charts of data rose up in various areas of the Annihilating Star Corridor.
"Martial Uncle, please look. Starting from the Qidian the corridor, the index of the concentrated spiritual energy area is 7. Every hundred million astronomical units, it decreases by two base points."
"Following this pattern, the spiritual energy index will drop to zero completely after a distance of approximately 350 million astronomical units."
"The second set of data is about the reproduction of plant life in the four major families over the past seven thousand years."
"For every 35,000 astronomical units of progress made deeper into the Si Yue Desolate Territory, the number of generations of plant life that maintain their species' survival decreases by 0.003. The probability of mutation and degeneration increases by 0.007 accordingly."
"These changes are very subtle, but they are extremely regular."
"Once we get to this place—." Zhao Xing pointed his finger at the black void area, "I think there shouldn't be any Original Seed left that can maintain their level and reproduce."
After Zhao Xing finished speaking, all the Agricultural Official, including Lord Lushan, fell silent.
Seeing that everyone had quieted down, the other people in the professions also dared not utter a sound. Instead, they frantically searched for information in private, trying to understand the meaning of the conversation between Zhao Xing and Lord Lushan.
However, it is easy for the Agricultural Official of the Primordial Beginning Realm to understand.
The so-called grade preservation breeding refers to the process by which a plant retains the same qualities as the original Mother Seed after multiple generations of reproduction.
For example, the Seven Realms True Spirit Bamboo in Zhao Xing's body is of Emperor Grade quality. Since it is Original Seed without a Source of Life lock, as long as it reproduces in a suitable environment, a large number of Emperor Grade species will appear in its next generation.
Under natural circumstances, any plant life has a generation for maintaining its level and reproducing. The more powerful the life, the more difficult it is to maintain its level and reproduce, and the shorter the generation number.
However, the four auxiliary methods of the Primordial School of Agriculture—Divine Radiance, Principle of the Way, Primordial Brightness, and Primordial Foundation—can greatly extend the number of generations.
However, this data is based on the fact that the Agricultural Official of the four major families were planting crops for supplies.
Despite human intervention by the Agricultural Official, a downward trend of downgrading and demotion still occurred.
In other words, this is a massive and unavoidable environmental factor at play.
It's not very obvious from the seven thousand years that the four major families have been developing, but if we continue to develop according to Zhao Xing's data model, we will definitely encounter this situation.
"Qiusheng, I don't understand. Can you explain what it means?" Yang Baihe secretly messaged Yuan Qiusheng next to him.
"Taking the True Spirit Tree as an example, when we reach the location designated by Zhao Xing, some extreme situations will occur, namely that the Emperor Grade True Spirit Tree will not be able to flower and bear fruit in that place, thus failing to provide supplies for the people."
"Having lost the characteristic of bearing True Spirit Fruit, it has no value other than being used for cutting firewood. It is no different from ordinary quality trees, and it is even less effective at burning than ordinary quality branches," Yuan Qiusheng explained.
"Because it still needs to absorb nutrients of far higher quality than ordinary ones in order to maintain its life and prevent decay."
Yang Baihe suddenly realized and said, "It's like a stud bull that's been sterilized, but it doesn't affect its appetite, though it's not really that useful anymore, right?"
"To be more serious, if a plant that is an auxiliary plant does not flower or bear fruit, it is as good as a dead plant. Keeping it is a burden, and cutting it down for firewood is not as good as burning low-quality firewood."
Yang Baihe muttered to himself, "If trees can do this, then people probably can too—I absolutely cannot go to this place."
The collapse of the Yin Yang Twin Stars has led to increased costs for star relocation.
The "space-time rift" increases the difficulty of building a survival base.
The "Annihilation Chapter Layer Region" blocks the path of exploration.
The three questions are progressively more difficult than the last.
This is only the objective problem; there are also subjective problems caused by human factors such as manpower, resources, and policies.
However, compared to the three major problems, Zhao Xing believes that the latter can be ignored.
He had raised enough funds, and the construction was being handled by the Great Zhou Dynasty. With both money and people under his control, these were no problem as long as the Dharma assembly could proceed smoothly.
After the partners' meeting concluded, Zhao Xing began preparations for the Dharma assembly.
"To organize a Dharma assembly, it is nothing more than time, place, people, and content."
"The location has been confirmed; it's on the large base ' Rainbow Moon Star Continent ' in the Annihilating Star Corridor."
"The timeframe is tentatively set for a hundred years from now."
A century is already a very short time. Zhao Xing needs to let this matter ferment and spread, otherwise the powerful people won't be able to get there in time.
"The Dharma assembly must have some important figures; it would be too meager for just Lord Lushan to come."
"Even if we add the Five Poisons Emperor Lord and the Emperor Hongshan, it's still not enough."
"It would be best if the Academy City could send some people."
Zhao Xing thought for a moment and then began writing a letter to Bowei.
"This junior, Zhao Xing, bows respectfully to Elder Bowei."
"The Academy City is a sacred place where all the world's schools of thought have come together."
"The Grand Elder is the foremost among the wise men of the Academy City."
"Ascending to the Eighth Law Realm, miraculously curing the incurable celestial poison, and unlocking the divine artifacts of the World Transfer Tower —these are feats unprecedented in history!"
When Bowei saw the letter, he instinctively felt a chill run down his spine.
Zhao Xing praised him to the skies in his letter, but this did not make him happy; instead, it made him wary.
"Teacher, what is this kid trying to do?"
Bowei interrupted Zhi Xin, telling him to skip the nonsense and get straight to the point.
Zhi Xin flipped through several pages, then chuckled and said, "This kid wants to hold a Dharma assembly and would like to invite you to make an appearance."
"He also said something about his admiration for you: 'My heart is as clear as the sun and moon,' and 'It is like the waters of the Li River, once it begins, it cannot be stopped.' — Pfft."
As she read on, Zhi Xin couldn't help but laugh out loud.
That's so damn cheesy!
"Teacher! Get to the point!"
"Ahem, alright." Zhi Xin continued turning the pages, and finally, the truth was revealed, and she learned Zhao Xing's real purpose.
"He said if you don't agree, he will follow the ancient custom and visit the sacred site of the Academy City three times—hahahaha."
Zhi Xin smiled for the second time, he couldn't resist anymore.
He noticed that his disciple's face looked as pale as if he had eaten excrement.
The thought that Bowei had lost 2.4 billion Realm Spirit Points because of Zhao Xing made Zhi Xin unable to hold back her anger.
Bowei was also on edge, and at this point he had temporarily put aside the idea of making Zhao Xing the core of the God Creation Project.
But then I discovered that I couldn't shake this guy off!
Admiring me? And even coming to my door in person?
Please, please stop admiring me, okay?
If you come again, my World Transfer Tower will go bankrupt even if it isn't shut down by the five major powers!
Thinking about the consequences of Zhao Xing doing it again, Bowei couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"Phew~"
After letting out a sigh of relief, he finally managed to calm himself down.
"How do you plan to reply?" Zhi Xin asked.
"Agree to his request," Bowei said. "As long as he doesn't come to the Academy City and enter the World Transfer Tower, everything is negotiable."
Isn't it just sending a few people to the Desolate Territory to support the Dharma assembly and give Zhao Xing some publicity?
Although he was angry, it was a small matter, and Bowei could tolerate it.
"Why don't you send a Dharma Avatar to go?" Zhi Xin pondered. "The opening of the World Transfer Tower in the Academy City has attracted a large number of powerful individuals, which has already affected the development progress of the Red Star Empire's Desolate Territory."
"If the Emperor is dissatisfied and puts pressure on us, the closure of the World Transfer Tower won't be far off. Don't let your personal emotions affect the plan."
A hint of disgust flashed in Bowei's eyes, but he ultimately nodded in agreement.
"The teacher's reprimand is correct; it should be done this way."
On an inconspicuous Realm Star on the border of the Wanhe Demon Kingdom in the Xuanling Star Domain.
Wei Tianchen looked at the Earth Mirror in front of him, and a figure shrouded in Black Robe gradually emerged in it.
"Brother Wei, I have some information about Zhao Xing. Would you be willing to purchase it from the Holy Temple?"
Wei Tianchen nodded expressionlessly. "Speak."
"The development rights of the Annihilating Star Ancient Road have been transferred. Lord Lushan and the Great Zhou Dynasty are just a front; the real controllers are Zhao Xing and his relatives and friends."
"In addition, he is about to convene the Annihilation Star Assembly, which is scheduled for 135 years from now, and the location will be the Rainbow Moon Star Continent in the Annihilating Star Corridor."
"The Rainbow Moon Star Continent was originally controlled by the local Rainbow Moon Dynasty, whose power was originally controlled by the Carlos Family."
But it also has connections to the Academy City, with Beins being a subordinate secretly trained by Bowei.
"Zhao Xing also invited Elder Bowei of the Academy City as an honored guest. With the promotion of the Academy City and Bowei's involvement,
This private religious ceremony was already of a very high standard.
Wei Tianchen frowned. "What is the content of this Dharma assembly that could attract Bowei to attend in person? His Zhao's Eight Methods and Theory of Earth Epoch Cataclysm were published only two thousand years ago. Could he have come up with a new theory?"
As the saying goes, it is easy to cultivate the Dharma, but difficult to find the right theories. Zhao Xing's speed in publishing his Theory of Law is a bit too fast.
Bowei wouldn't endorse someone for no reason, and Zhao Xing would have to have something real to offer.
Otherwise, it would be damaging the reputation of the Academy City.
"The specific details are yet to be determined, but the theme has been set: to address the extreme environment of the Annihilating Star Corridor. It is said that there will be a total of thirty-four events."
"Thirty-four matches?!" Wei Tianchen was somewhat shocked.
Thirty-four shows—that would take a lot of content to support.
He was well aware of the Star Corridor, as it presented many challenges comparable to those of the Layered World Mountain.
"Just who exactly is Emperor Tianning?" Wei Tianchen's curiosity was piqued. "Could he also have survived the Five Emperors Era?"
The figure in Black Robe slowly said, "Brother Wei, the Dark Hall can provide an opportunity for you to disguise one of your avatars and go there without being detected by karma."
Wei Tianchen shook his head. "I have the ability to shield myself from the Empire's causal detection without relying on the Holy Temple."
The Celestial Master Mansion established by the Red Star Great Emperor inherited relics from the Li Emperor Era. Three of these Fate Master treasures are in Wei Tianchen's hands, which is the source of his confidence.
The Black Robe voice continued, "You may indeed be unafraid of the Empire's Celestial Master Mansion's investigation, but you cannot Reincarnation Temple's investigation."
Wei Tianchen was somewhat taken aback. "What do you mean?"
The Black Robe nodded. "A god from the Reincarnation Temple is tracking you. Based on your client access level, this information is free. We will ask you first whether you want to purchase targeted causal protection."
"Do you know who it is?" Wei Tianchen asked.
"I cannot reveal anything, just as the Holy Temple will not leak your information, you will not be able to obtain information about that person either." The Black Robe shook his head.
"I'll buy it." Wei Tianchen nodded.
Once the Black Robe disappeared, he looked down at the Seven-Star Dipper Cabinet in front of him. Two drawers had already been opened, but there was still one deeply hidden cabinet that he couldn't unlock.
"In that case, let's make the trip."
Empire, Northern Frontier, Ruin Star System.
"You mean Zhao Xing is going to hold a Dharma assembly at the Annihilation Star Assembly?" Ruin Carlos, who was lying in Stone Gate, opened his eyes upon hearing the report. He was currently in the form of a Mechanical Beast resembling a fierce tiger.
"Yes, we suspect Zhao Xing came prepared; the Annihilating Star Corridor has unknown value," the reporter said. "It's said that Bowei will also attend this ceremony."
"Hmph, the problems of the Annihilating Star Ancient Road are not so easy to solve." Ruin Carlos laughed, "He's just making a show of things to attract people, but it won't solve the problem and it'll all be for nothing."
"Tell the other three families not to bother me with this matter," Ruin Carlos said. "Just wait and see them make a fool of themselves."
"Yes."
Crystal Island, the border of the Empire.
Within the private cloud-like space, scrolls of blank Sacred Page were gradually filled in, eventually transforming into a thick book.
Whoosh~
After writing the last character, Zhao Xing was covered in sweat and landed straight up on the clouds.
Above the clouds were hundreds of books, all shimmering with Golden Light. They were clearly not just Jinglun, but also possessed Daoist essence, meaning that both the Dharma and the doctrines were complete.
Metaphor
The Golden Light book slowly descended and landed beside him.
Six streams of air swirled around it, and upon closer inspection, they resembled the stars and the moon.
The cover has several large characters on it.
The Six Natures of Annihilation Treatise: Yin-Yang Chapter
However, the Golden Light trembled slightly, clearly indicating that the fragile paper could not withstand the immense Daoist aura.
"Whoosh~" Zhao Xing blew a breath and used his magic to stabilize the Golden Light.
"This is really tiring."
"Why don't we just abscond with the money?" Zhao Xing groaned weakly.
The problems of the Annihilating Star Corridor are more complex than those of the Layered World Mountain; their explanation and resolution require consideration of Heavenly Timing, Earthly Advantage Institute, and other factors.
The content of the three schools of True Self.
The first problem is the star-shifting challenge.
Why do the Yin Yang Twin Stars, which thrive in the Spiritual Realm, collapse in a very short time when they arrive at the Annihilating Star Corridor?
Zhao Xing turned his head and blew out another breath of magic power.
Whoosh~
The pages were turned, and the words were revealed.
Oranges grown south of the Huai River are sweet oranges, while those grown north of the Huai River are bitter oranges. Though their leaves are similar, their tastes differ. Why is this so?
The difference lies in the yin and yang of the water and soil!
[The Twin Stars are manifestations of the Yin-Yang Great Dao. When they enter the Spirit Domain, their six rays shine boundlessly, and their lifespan is approximately one hundred years, for the destiny of Heavenly Timing is fixed. When they enter the Desolate Territory, their six calamities disrupt the myriad stars, and their lifespan is uncertain, for the destiny of Heavenly Timing is disordered!]
Moving the Sun Star and Yin Star can shorten their lifespan, a common phenomenon.
This phenomenon is particularly noticeable when people are moved from spiritual realms to Desolate Territory.
In the past, those who studied this phenomenon often attributed the cause to its manifestations, but rarely explained it from the perspective of the Tao.
Zhao Xing used the theory of the True Self Faction to prove the Yin-Yang Great Dao, and then used the theory of the Time Faction to explain this phenomenon.
However, the Annihilating Star Corridor is clearly an extreme phenomenon, and this alone is not enough to fully explain it.
"Phew~"
Zhao Xing turned his head and blew another breath.
This time it's a different book.
The Earthly Changes of Annihilation Treatise: Yin-Yang Chapter
"The pure Yang Qi rises to become the heavens, and the Yin Yang Twin Stars Qi descends to become the earth. The Yin and Yang stars interact and give birth to all things. The turbid Yin Qi within transforms into the Earth Vein, while the pure Yang Qi outside illuminates the void. The void is the center, and when Yin and Yang are in balance, the cycle continues endlessly. When Yin and Yang are imbalanced, the heavens collapse and the earth sinks, and the Yin Yang Twin Stars disintegrate," Zhao Xing murmured to himself.
"The Yin-Yang Great Dao manifests in the Image Manifestation Layer realm as the two stars, the Solar Yang and the Lunar Yin. The pure Yang energy emanates outward, transforming into light illuminating the territory, while the impure Yang energy becomes the Earth Vein, stabilizing the stars' interiors. If the value of this Cosmic Laws changes even slightly, the common physical forms of the Sun Star and Yin Star cannot be formed."
It then transformed into the chaotic Dao, just as it had been seen in the Dao Ancient Layer.
"The reason why the Yin Yang Twin Stars collapsed in the Star Corridor is firstly because the external Six Natural Elements were in chaos."
Secondly, the internal Earth Vein changes have rendered the Sun Star and Yin Star unable to maintain their physical forms.
"Once the binary stars collapse, they will also crush the Image Manifestation Layer void, causing a second phenomenon: a spacetime depression or bulge."
"This kind of dramatic change is so violent! When the Realm Star changes, there are usually four layers of barriers: metal, wood, water, and earth, before the underground fire veins (magma layer) are finally exposed."
"Just like the Earth Splitting Art Technique, the balance of the first four of the five Earth Vein must be disrupted before the fire veins can be seen to erupt."
"The Sun Star is different; fire veins occupy the entire area, with only a thin layer of barriers formed by other fire-elemental elements. The changes that occur on the ground themselves are enough to affect the changes in the void layer."
1
Zhao Xing likened the void layer to a flexible box. When the twin stars collapse in one place, the void layer in the other place will be squeezed by the return of the Yin-Yang Great Dao to the void layer, resulting in spacetime tearing or distortion.
The Yin-Yang Great Dao resonate with each other. This tearing or twisting usually creates another region of the Sun Star or the Yin Star, causing a chain reaction.
The stable spacetime channel is a product of this change. It can be said that the phenomenon of the Annihilating Star Corridor has both advantages and disadvantages, depending on whether it can be utilized by people.
The reason he was so exhausted was because the books lying beside him were no ordinary books; they contained laws and theories, and also offered solutions, making them truly worthy of being called "Dao Book"!
Even if Bowei doesn't come, Academy City doesn't certify it, as long as someone sees the original, they will know the status of this Theory of Law.
"Actually, some of the theories are from the Time Faction,' but the Time Faction' isn't powerful enough in the Xuanling Star Domain, so some arguments have to be borrowed from the True Self Faction' or the 'Earthly Advantage Faction School.'" Zhao Xing looked at these books as if they were his own children.
A child who should be called "the Time Faction" is instead dressed up as True Self" or "the Earthly Advantage Institute ".
"We can only ask the Time Faction to step in." Zhao Xing's hand stroked the covers of the books.
He was completely absorbed in his cultivation space, almost oblivious to time, but Zhao Xing thoroughly enjoyed this feeling because he could sense his soul growing rapidly and transforming into a true spirit.
The soul guides the transformation of the Internal World. If one reaches the True Spirit level first, it will greatly benefit the opening of the Internal World.
"Metaphor~~"
After resting for a short while, Zhao Xing was suddenly awakened by the tremors in the sky.
"Grand Minister of Agriculture ~ Grand Minister of Agriculture ~ It's time to emerge from seclusion."
That's Ji Si's voice.
"Call out!"
A Golden Light pierced the sky, splitting it open, and Ji Si's figure entered the cultivation space. "Ji Si, why did you call me out of seclusion?"
"Grand Minister of Agriculture, the first Dharma Assembly is less than a month away, and the invited guests, such as Bowei, have already arrived. Everyone is waiting. It's time for you to come out of seclusion." Ji Si said with some admiration. Zhao Xing had only been in seclusion for a little over 130 years, but he seemed to have gained a lot.
"Wow, that was fast. It feels like I just walked in—" Zhao Xing, somewhat dazed. "In that case, come with me to meet the guests."
