Chapter 2664 / Chapter 2665

After Aeon of Destruction Nanook, was thrown into the Artifact Forging Furnace, his body began to shrink continuously until he fell precisely into the palm-sized New Penacony.

Upon witnessing this scene, both the Aeon and ordinary tourists fell silent.

Are you sure Nanook did it voluntarily?

It doesn't look like it.

Especially when Nanook was thrown into New Penacony through the crack, the tourists and Aeon below saw Nanook's bruised and battered face...

Hmm... it certainly doesn't seem like it was voluntary.

"Alright, all the guests are here now. Start, start, start! All of them, start! Oh, right, there's this too." Chen Li clapped his hands, then suddenly paused.

As he spoke, Chen Li reached out and took out four Miracle Cards, throwing them all into the Artifact Forging Furnace.

The four Miracle Cards: [Game Life], [Golden Honkai-Moe King], [Perpetual Magic Card], and [World-Painting].

The first one needs no further discussion.

The second Miracle Card was automatically obtained by Chen Li after he woke up this morning, which suggests that Little Golden Honkai-Moe King has been accumulating it for quite some time.

The third card is Miracle Card that Chen Li obtained after using a Miraculous Item to achieve eternal reincarnation in the Sea of Quantum.

The last Miracle Card is reserved for Genius Little Trash that might occur when crafting Three-star Artifact.

The previous Miracle Cards were merely tools for summoning the Aeon, but these four Miracle Cards are truly intended to be used as forging materials for Miraculous Items.

Using four Miracle Cards at once would be Chen Li's biggest expenditure ever, and it's unlikely he'll ever do something so extravagant again in the foreseeable future.

At the same time, Chen Li threw four more Miraculous Items into the Artifact Forging Furnace.

[Wish Granting] is in charge of receiving visitors, [Redemption Tickets ] is in charge of screening, [Stellar Journey] is in charge of infrastructure, and [One Heart's Aspiration] is in charge of guidance.

These four Miraculous Items were all pre-made by Chen Li as Miraculous Item to the Paradise, specifically designed to be sewn into the Paradise.

As for the [Emperor's Proof] responsible for expansion, it doesn't need to be sewn on; it works perfectly on its own.

After all, Paradise is meant to accommodate the virtuous, and the [Emperor's Proof] is responsible for transforming the world into an earthly Paradise.

Because not everyone wants to come to the Paradise.

Chapter 2664

They have ties in their own world, but those ties may not be qualified to enter Paradise.

Therefore, Paradise accommodates the virtuous, and [the Emperor's Proof] transforms the world. The two are complementary and indispensable.

Entering the Paradise is a one-time solution, while building Paradise on land is more efficient.

As he watched the numerous Aeon and Path gradually extracting their entries, Chen Li stroked his chin, feeling that the process was still a bit too slow.

Thinking of this, Chen Li directly put his hand into the Miracle Fire, and then a large amount of Crystal poured out from Chen Li's palm, like a blue hailstorm falling into the Artifact Forging Furnace.

The Miracle Fire was instantly ignited by the Miracle Crystal, and the flames surged several times over. The extraction speed of the eighteen Path entries within the flames also increased significantly.

Since it's forging, there will be differences in the amount of heat applied.

And as long as it involves forging Miraculous Items, there's nothing that Crystal can't do.

The Artifact Forging Furnace emitted a buzzing sound, as if excited to finally be able to unleash its full power.

Looking at the mesmerizing blue flames, Chen Li felt both excited and heartbroken.

Wow, this is incredibly hot! Even hotter than the fire at Yiling.

Watching the inscriptions rapidly emerge from the intense heat of hundreds of Crystals, Chen Li casually waved his hand, summoning the Miraculous Forging Guide.

The Miraculous Forging Guide obediently floated in front of Chen Li, automatically flipping to the balance page.

Crystal balance: 7126.

Novice Task (10)

Forge 100 Miraculous Items (99/100)

Forge 10 Two-star Artifact (√)

Forge 1 Three-star Artifact (0/1)

Job level upgraded to LV10 (√)

Reputation increased to LV7 (√)

Although it sounds a bit strange, Chen Li is indeed still a novice. He hasn't even completed all the Novice Task yet.

Now, all that's missing to complete the final Novice Task is one Miraculous Item.

A Three-star Artifact.

Chen Li looked down at the Miracle Fire Artifact Forging Furnace before him, its surface ablaze with countless dazzling inscriptions, then reached to his right. A forging hammer instantly appeared in Chen Li hand.

The moment they saw this forging hammer, both the tourists at New Penacony and the spectators in front of the dome felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.

Everyone understood that the forging of the Miraculous Item was about to begin.

The next moment, the forging hammer, whose details had been obscured by the distance, finally revealed its true form to the group from New Penacony.

A giant hammer, even larger than the New Penacony, crashed down.

Bite...

The crisp, melodious sound of hammering echoed throughout the universe.

The sound wasn't like metal clashing; it was more like a giant tuning fork being struck, with the sound waves spreading outwards from the New Penacony throughout the universe.

The instant the giant hammer fell, everyone at New Penacony felt a tremendous tremor deep within their souls.

The feeling was hard to describe; it was as if all the impurities in one's soul were shattered, filtered, and clarified by that single blow.

After the tremor subsided, everyone even felt that their thoughts had become much clearer.

Meanwhile, entries for the New Penacony began to tremble, converge, and merge with this hammer blow.

Everyone stared blankly up at the sky, watching the giant hammer slowly rise and then fall again upon the entire New Penacony.

Bite...

Another crisp, clear sound of hammering echoed.

From Chen Li's perspective, every time a hammer blow is struck, 80 Crystals disappear from the Miraculous Forging Guide.

However, this was not the cost of creating the Miraculous Item, but rather the cost of creating Chen Li himself.

The greatest investment you can make is investing in yourself.

With each hammer blow, the 80 missing Crystals would flow into Chen Li's body, and an equal amount of Crystal Miracle Power would flow into the Miraculous Forging Guide.

Out with the old, in with the new.

The process of Miraculous Forger from LV1 to LV10 involves transferring the Miraculous Forging Guide to Chen Li.

The process of upgrading Miraculous Forger from LV11 to LV20 is essentially the process of returning their rank to the Miraculous Forging Guide.

The space has been returned, but the capacity remains. The simplest way to fill this capacity is to invest in Miracle Crystal.

Chen Li could certainly choose not to waste these Crystals, but if he wanted to explore more possibilities, he had to transform external things into his own and bring great power into his own body.

This process requires a total of 5500 Crystals. That's a terrifying amount, enough to craft 10 Three-star Artifacts.

And when could be more fitting to perform this ritual than when creating Three-star Artifact?

Huh? You're asking what to do if 5500 Crystals aren't divisible by 80? Well, that's easy, of course.

Chen Li was just doing the spinning around in the 80s because he thought it was fun.

As for what to do with the old Miracle Power? It's simply put into the Transfer... or rather, returned to the Miraculous Forging Guide.

After Chen Li's soul weapon's Miraculous Forging Guide is fully restored, it can completely transform back into a mature Miraculous Forging Guide.

It can collect entries, craft Miraculous Items, and earn Crystals on its own, creating a wonderful life for Chen Li.

80!

80!

80!

Every hammer blow was a forging of Miraculous Item, a tempering of Chen Li, and a tremor that shook the entire universe.

The crisp sound of hammering echoed throughout the universe, stirring the hearts and minds of countless living beings.

PS: According to Ciweimao's policy, if the daily update volume exceeds 20,000 words, the sales revenue of the current chapter will not be included in the bestseller list. Therefore, I have to split the same chapter into two chapters.

Chapter ID: 115003977

(The chapter titles are the same because two chapters make one chapter, but Ciweimao stipulates that chapters exceeding 20,000 words are not counted in sales revenue, so they have to be split.)

With the final hammer blow, the two-and-a-half-hour forging journey finally came to an end. And when Chen Li put down the forging hammer, it signified the birth of Miraculous Item.

As the last spark of Miracle Fire flowed into the New Penacony, the Miraculous Item Embryo, the whole world seemed to freeze for a moment.

The sound vanished, the light froze, and even time itself seemed to stand still for a moment.

The next moment, the exquisitely Paradise, the size of a palm, in Chen Li's palm shone brightly.

Almost simultaneously, a colossal, illusory Paradise, spanning the entire universe, crashed down.

This is not an exaggeration. The phantom of this Paradise truly envelops the entire universe within it.

Chapter 2665

People can even see the bewildered tourists of New Penacony in the illusory images floating around them, see the details of the buildings and the textures of the streets, and even have a God's Perspective overlooking the entire Paradise.

And it's not just this world.

The moment this phantom appeared, all the imaginary worlds and World Bubbles located within the Imaginary Tree Worldview saw the silhouette of that Paradise high in the sky.

Even the world connected by the Boundary Stone of the [Emperor's Proof] can see the magnificent Paradise sitting in the sky when you look up.

Unlike Chen Li's other Miraculous Item, which would revert to their ancient simplicity and appear unremarkable the moment they were forged, this Miraculous Item was different.

But this Miraculous Item is inherently sacred, striving to demonstrate its existence to the world.

Or rather... the world can no longer conceal its identity. Its mere existence attracts the world's attention.

For Three-star Artifact, the world is the challenger.

As the entire universe stared at the sky, almost holding its breath, Chen Li reached into the Artifact Forging Furnace and held the Miraculous Item, crafted from the New Penacony as its embryo, in his palm.

An embryo is needed to create Miraculous Item.

Chen Li usually just casually sculpts a prototype when creating Miraculous Item, but that often results in the final product deviating slightly from his expectations. However, this time, with the creation of Three-star Artifact, Chen Li wanted to make it as perfect as possible.

And this Miraculous Item, modeled after the New Penacony, the Festive Star has attracted the attention of the entire galaxy and whose foundation is the Seven-Day Holy Grail, has finally been revealed to everyone.

It was a small and exquisite Paradise.

On a base the size of a palm, buildings rise and fall in staggered rows.

In fact, during the forging process, the New Penacony, which is the Miraculous Item Embryo, is constantly being reorganized, a fact that the Aeon and visitors who are in the process perceive most deeply.

Countless streets moved and filled in as if manipulated by a giant hand, buildings gliding, rotating, and falling into entirely new locations across the land.

The shops and houses that had been left in disarray due to the previous Trailblaze into the misty area were all lifted up and carefully placed in a more rational layout.

It felt like a giant was building Lego bricks with these structures, carefully examining each one before placing it in its final position.

Moreover, the area of New Penacony is expanding rapidly at a visible rate, doubling almost every second.

The forging process lasted a full two and a half hours. During those two and a half hours of exponential expansion, by the time the forging was finished, the area of New Penacony had reached an unimaginable size.

While everyone's attention was drawn to this Paradise, in a corner unnoticed by anyone, Path and Aeon, whose entire set of entries had been absorbed, instantly turned gray, like a painting that had lost its color, and scattered with the wind.

Upon witnessing this scene, Chen Li flipped through the Two-star Artifact [Revival Match] in his hand, used three magical techniques to exceed its effect limit, and then casually tossed it away.

Almost in the blink of an eye, color returned to the grayed-out Aeon.

The fragments that had vanished in the wind gathered together again like a reversed image, their outlines reappearing and details being filled in, and one by one, the complete Aeon stood once more on the land of New Penacony.

The resurgence of the Aeon is only the beginning.

At the same moment, the eighteen Paths scattered throughout the galaxy also awakened anew.

Those blue veins that had faded and disappeared were like blood vessels that were pulsating again, extending in all directions from the core of the Milky Way.

Each beat of the "pulse" pushes the light of Path further into the distance.

At the same moment, all the Pathstrider in the galaxy felt the return of the Path Power, and the power supply that had been interrupted due to the Path being taken away was reconnected.
