Yes, the fish-shaped jade pendant, having been infused with countless resources and finally upgraded to Spirit Artifact, has gained its own sentience.
Moreover, it has awakened new uses.
I recall the powerful abilities the fish-shaped jade pendant possessed after its advancement.
Lu Li's mind wandered.
"The fish-shaped jade pendant's effects are indeed remarkable after it was upgraded to Spirit Artifact."
"Although it cannot add new Dao Laws to my knowledge, it can extract Dao Laws Crystal from the bodies of Dao Integration Demon Beast."
"What were originally precious Dao Laws Crystal seem rather ordinary to me."
In the blink of an eye...
The fish-shaped jade pendant seemed to know Lu Li's intentions.
A faint light flashed, releasing two translucent crystals with different Dao Laws powers.
Inside the crystal was a miniature volcano and a bolt of lightning.
This represents two completely different Dao Laws.
"These two Dao Laws Crystal are worth nearly tens of billions of Top-Grade Spirit Stone."
"But it's nothing more than what I condensed from two Dao Integration Sea Beasts."
"The value proposition is far too weak!"
Looking at the two Dao Laws Crystal in his hand.
Lu Li's Spiritual Power swirled slightly, instantly absorbing it.
The 108 Dao Laws within the body seemed to have received some kind of nourishment.
They trembled together, their intensity even greater than before.
This is the wondrous application of the Dao Laws Crystal.
Although the fish-shaped jade pendant, after being upgraded to Spirit Artifact, cannot extract new Dao Laws.
Yet it can condense the Dao Laws Crystal.
Dao Laws Crystal have wonderful uses in refining weapons and pills, as well as drawing talismans and setting up arrays.
It could even allow Lu Li to directly absorb and nurture his own 108 Dao Laws.
This will further strengthen the power of the Dao Laws.
"With the new function of the fish-shaped jade pendant, the Endless Sea Trench is even more important to me!"
"I wonder how many Dao Laws Crystal we'll get on this trip."
Imagine the abundant resources of the Endless Deep Trench.
Even Lu Li couldn't help but feel excited.
He then waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the fish-shaped jade pendant disappeared into his body.
The Second Primordial Spirit transformed into a stream of light and dissipated in front of him.
Lu Li's figure flashed out of the main hall.
Outside the main hall, several figures were already waiting.
The leader was Yinyang Qingfan, followed by Bone Jia, Bone Evil, and Zou Heng.
The four Venerable of the Dao Court had been waiting here for some time.
Next are Changming Changye, Dong Qing, Jiang Wuxie, Li Nanci, and Qian Dabao.
"Master!"
"Greetings, Master!"
"Greetings, Dao Lord!"
"..."
The moment Lu Li's figure appeared, a series of howls resounded.
Everyone looked at Lu Li with utmost respect and admiration.
For the past thirty years, everyone has felt like they've been living in a dream.
I can't believe I've actually conquered the Eastern Wasteland.
They could hardly believe that the Dao Court had changed so much.
"Well, everyone, on this journey we will traverse the Endless Deep Trench, clear out this Eastern Wasteland Demon Cave, and then venture into the starry sky."
"This journey through the starry sky is uncertain; when I return, it may be thousands of years later."
Lu Li looked at everyone, his gaze softening considerably.
His words greatly excited everyone.
The cultivators had long heard of the mysterious and powerful Bone Mountain Immortal Market and the vast starry sky.
I had long yearned for it.
Now that the situation in the Eastern Wasteland has been settled, everyone naturally wants to go and see the stars.
They responded in unison immediately.
"This disciple will surely follow Master to the death!"
"Your subordinate will follow you to the death, Dao Lord!"
"..."
Yinyang Qingfan, Changming, and the others spoke in unison.
The sound was loud and lingered for a long time.
Looking at his own team in front of him, Lu Li took a deep breath.
No more dawdling.
The order was given immediately, "Ride the teleportation array!"
Spatial teleportation arrays are no longer considered rare items in the Eastern Wasteland.
The five provinces—east, west, south, north, and center—have been connected by a teleportation array.
Thanks to the intensive research and development efforts of the Great Xia, the Dao Court has already mastered short-range and medium-to-long-range teleportation arrays.
The furthest teleportation array can even transmit directly from the Central Continent to any of the four states: East, West, South, and North.
It was precisely because of the invention of the medium- and long-distance teleportation array that the Dao Court was able to integrate the Eastern Wasteland within just thirty years.
The widespread use of teleportation arrays not only accelerated the development of the Eastern Wasteland.
This also made the Dao Court's acceptance of bribes even more effective.
They even distinguished between public transmission arrays and internal transmission arrays.
Lu Li and the others naturally rode in the internal teleportation array.
A teleportation array was specially built and erected for him to reach the Endless Deep Trench!
They arrived at the platform for transmitting the magic array.
Lu Li and the others stopped.
Outside the circular array platform stood the cultivators on duty.
Over the years, the Dao Court has trained many cultivators specializing in the repair and maintenance of transmission arrays.
The Dao Court already has its own complete system for the use of the Transmission Array, and has even established a separate department called the Teleportation Array Bureau.
The Dao Court now has a total of twelve departments.
"During the transmission of the array, please refrain from Hand Seals or using hand seals. The countdown to the start of the transmission is ten, nine, eight..."
The guard's voice sounded somewhat excited upon seeing Lu Li.
Amidst the screams, a dazzling white light suddenly erupted.
The next second.
Lu Li and the others disappeared from the spot.
When they reappeared, they were greeted by a vast blue sea and a cultivator on the other side guarding the teleportation array.
" The Dao Lord! It's the Dao Lord!"
"Greetings Dao Lord Daoist!"
"..."
The moment Lu Li and his group appeared, they were greeted by a chorus of welcoming voices.
At the same time, a responsible cultivator immediately stepped forward to introduce the situation.
"I am the captain of the teleportation array, number 108 (甲字108号), greetings to the Dao Lord."
"Our teleportation array is the closest to the Endless Deep Trench. Eight hundred miles ahead, a thousand miles below, lies the Endless Deep Trench in the Central Continent."
"Hmm, not bad."
He patted the guard captain on the shoulder with a friendly expression.
Lu Li looked towards the distant sea.
Endless Deep Trench.
The last time he traversed the Endless Deep Trench was back when Yinyang Qingfan was with him.
Now, returning to this Endless Deep Trench, this time with four Mahayana.
The four Mahayana, plus him, should theoretically be able to handle the situation unless it's Supreme making a move.
There shouldn't be any danger.
So this time, Lu Li will traverse the Endless Deep Trench of the entire Eastern Wasteland before returning to the starry sky!
There's a teleportation array he can use; he has plenty of time.
Of course, this is on the premise that there are no Supreme- level Demon Venerable in this Endless Deep Trench.
"Over the years, I have also searched through the secrets of the Hundred Schools of Thought in the Central Continent and found many records about the Endless Deep Trench."
"According to the common thread in many secrets, the true source of this Endless Deep Trench..."
"In reality, they were many powerful demons from the Eastern Desolation Star tens of thousands of years ago who sank into the sea and sealed themselves away to escape the Ji Household's attacks."
"For the Ji Household, these things were essential resources, but they never expected that after this dramatic change in the world, they would no longer be able to move around freely."
The various changes on the Eastern Desolation Star are inextricably linked to the Ji Household.
Whether it was the upheaval in the Central Continent or the origin of the Endless Deep Trench, it was all because of the Ji Household.
This inevitably raised another question in Lu Li.
" The Ji Household, the Ji Household, all the problems stem from the Ji Household, if that's the case..."
"Could the fact that the Imprisoned Dragon is unable to sneak away to ascend to heaven today, and even unable to contact the upper realm, also be related to the Ji Household?"
Lu Li naturally couldn't find the answer to this question.
But a vague feeling of unease lingered in my mind.
We can only try to find out when we have the chance in the future.
As for the present situation...
Looking towards the Endless Deep Trench ravine in the distance.
A glint of light flashed in Lu Li's eyes, and he decisively gave an order to the four Mahayana cultivators behind him.
"Let's go! We'll conquer every Endless Deep Trench!"
