The Purpose of the Artifact Sect's Great Hall

"Huh, what's going on? The Trisolarans have really come?"

Yi Xuan stared at the large characters on the wall, somewhat bewildered. Wasn't it absurd to tell someone in the Cultivation Realm not to cultivate immortality?

Yi Xuan looked around the secret room again and found that apart from the twelve large characters and the weapon in the middle of the room, there was nothing else in the entire secret room.

"Could this be related to the demise of the High Antiquity Artifact Sect?"

Yi Xuan thought about it more and more and felt that this deduction was reasonable. The people of the High Antiquity Artifact Sect must have discovered something, but the enemy was too strong and the High Antiquity Artifact Sect had no way to resist. In the end, they were destroyed and the sect was wiped out.

The twelve large characters in front of Yi Xuan were the final warning from the High Antiquity Artifact Sect to this world.

But what kind of enemy could such a powerful sect, which dominated the entire Cultivation Realm, possibly have encountered to be wiped out so cleanly? Yi Xuan believed that if it weren't for these twelve large characters in this secret chamber, perhaps none of this would have been preserved.

"Could it be a legendary immortal?"

However, Yi Xuan quickly shook his head and dismissed the idea.

They've already become immortals; what immortal would be so bored as to bother a group of cultivators he could wipe out with a wave of his hand?

It's neither beneficial nor a waste of time; you'd be better off using that time to cultivate yourself properly.

After much thought, Yi Xuan still had no clue. The clues he had obtained were too few to allow Yi Xuan to make any deductions.

Shaking his head helplessly, Yi Xuan focused his attention on the weapon in the middle of the secret room.

Although it felt like a weapon, Yi Xuan wasn't entirely sure, because the handle alone, which was exposed above the ground, was nearly 1.5 meters long.

Of course, this length isn't too exaggerated; many long weapons can achieve this. What truly made Yi Xuan uncertain was the excessively large diameter of the handle. Yi Xuan couldn't even grip it with both hands, indicating that this thing was probably not designed for normal human use.

Yi Xuan used his Divine Sense to scan the underground area. Strangely, the main hall appeared very clearly in Yi Xuan 'Yi Xuan mind, but the weapon seemed to be pixelated under his Divine Sense, and he had no idea what it was.

"Is it something inappropriate for children?" Yi Xuan muttered to himself.

Even when Yi Xuan used his Divine Sense to envelop his True Qi and probe into it, the result was the same; he discovered that this thing was simply impossible to refine.

Ultimately, Yi Xuan guessed that this might not be a Law Artifact, at least not Law Artifact from the Cultivation Realm, because it didn't react to True Qi at all, which was extremely strange.

Unable to do anything about it, Yi Xuan had no choice but to slink out of the main hall. Afterward, the main hall transformed back into a ring and was placed on Yi Xuan's finger.

Back at No. 2 Base, Yi Xuan thought with great frustration, "What kind of mess is this? Twelve random characters, and a strange, motionless weapon! What's going on with this High Antiquity Artifact Sect? Do they just love playing riddles? No wonder they've ruined their own sect, they're so annoying!"

However, despite his words, Yi Xuan was still very grateful to the High Antiquity Artifact Sect, after all, he had obtained their sect's main hall.

If other people in the Cultivation Realm obtained this, they would probably only use it as a mobile palace plus a super-large Storage Bag.

But in Yi Xuan's hands, it could produce far greater effects than these.

Yi Xuan plans to replicate all the equipment from his No. 1 Base and move it into the Artifact Sect Great Hall, transforming it into a portable research base!

This would have prevented the awkward situation that occurred in the Artifact Ruins. If Yi Xuan had possessed the Artifact Sect Great Hall at the time, he could have repaired or rebuilt the Black Tortoise and laser transmitters, as well as the Firmament Yi Xuan, even after they were damaged, thus avoiding the risky actions he later took.

Fortunately, Yi Xuan was lucky enough that the disciples of other sects did not discover anything amiss.

Before returning to No. 1 Base, Yi Xuan took a moment to check on Shi Zhenghao, but ever since he was provoked by the AI video generated by Yi Xuan, he hadn't left the cave.

Even Zhuo Ning shook his head when Yi Xuan asked him, saying that Shi Zhenghao had been unusually well-behaved lately. Even when Zhuo Ning would not respond.

If Yi Xuan hadn't used infrared detection to check the situation inside the cave, he would have really thought that his senior brother had come up with some wicked idea again and secretly run away.

Yi Xuan felt that Shi Zhenghao had truly come back to him this time, so he instructed Zhuo Ning that the supervision of Shi Zhenghao did not need to be so strict, and then left No. 2 Base.

Upon returning to No. 1 Base, Yi Xuan immediately threw herself into her busy work, as there was still much to be done.

On the one hand, the goal is to completely replicate No. 1 Base within the Artifact Sect Great Hall. This is an enormous project. After nearly a year of rapid development, Yi Xuan's No. 1 Base is now vastly different from what it used to be.

The entire No. 1 Base was packed with all sorts of massive and complex equipment. Completely replicating all of this equipment in the Artifact Sect Great Hall wouldn't be something that could be done in a day or two, not to mention that No. 1 Base also contained several supercomputers equipped with the Primordial AI and their massive database servers.

These things are now enormous, but fortunately Yi Xuan has the Pangu robot, so most of the work can be handed over to them. With the addition of various engineering machinery, completing the replica is only a matter of time.

On the other hand, the Black Tortoise, the laser emitter, and the Firmament were all damaged to varying degrees in the Artifact Ruins, especially the Black Tortoise and the laser emitter, which were almost beyond repair. Of course, Yi Xuan did not intend to repair them either.

During this trip to the Artifact Ruins, both the Black Tortoise and the laser emitter revealed many problems. Therefore, Yi Xuan plans to upgrade their design and then remake them.

It is foreseeable that the new Black Tortoise and laser emitter will have significant performance improvements, which means that Yi Xuan's strength will also increase considerably. Therefore, Yi Xuan decisively began the improvement work on both.

Ten days later, just as Yi Xuan was making great efforts to produce the Black Tortoise, Liang Shi suddenly appeared behind Yi Xuan.

"Master, the sect has sent someone looking for you!"

Yi Xuan, who was staring absentmindedly at the blueprints for the Black Tortoise, asked, "Did they say what it was about? Unless it's something very important, just decline it for me!"

"Uh!" Seeing his master's serious expression, Liang Shi gritted his teeth and said, "That disciple said that Grandmaster has returned and specifically requested that you go!"

"What?"

Upon hearing that it was actually his master's order, Yi Xuan decisively put down his work and followed the messenger disciple to the sect's mountain.
