Chapter 582 - 486: Origin of the Sunfall and Refining the Supreme Treasure

The emergence of the Sunfall Star Realm was an anomaly.

This was an extinguished Sun Star, luckily not devoured by the Red Pigeon Race, retaining its spirit charm, and miraculously undergoing reincarnation to become a Life Star.

If developed according to the norm, this anomalous star would give birth to a powerful Star Giant Beast, directly advancing to a Starry Sky Dominator by devouring reincarnation, vying with the Red Pigeon Race for supremacy.

However, not everything is absolute, and the indigenous lifeforms born on this star were equally formidable. United, they resisted the Star Beast, launching a god-slaying act, but unfortunately, they perished together in the end.

This was a moving and tragic era; had it succeeded, it would have been no less than Zhang Kui freeing the Celestial Essence Star, yet like many legends in the cosmos, it sparkled only to be ultimately engulfed by the dark void.

With the extinction of life in the Sunfall Star Realm, several years later, reincarnation was on the verge of collapsing. At this moment, a group of wanderers arrived, spending over a thousand years transforming it into the Wandering Star Realm, gradually growing stronger.

However, a century ago, the Elder Council of the Sunfall Star Realm alarmingly discovered that the Reincarnation Core was nurturing a powerful consciousness once again.

If they set up a grand array to kill it, the core would shatter along with the Star Realm, and they would lose their home. Letting it continue could lead to a catastrophic disaster upon the birth of a powerful creature.

This put them in a dilemma, leaving them with no choice but to temporarily seal it.

Ironically, calamity and blessing are just a thought apart. As this creature grew stronger, it turned into their talisman. Every time they encountered the plunder of Star Thieves, unveiling the seal and perishing together became their last resort.

Upon merging into the Celestial Essence Star Realm, the Elder Council did not conceal this but informed about it, which was one of the reasons for the collective migration of the Sunfall Star Realm's lifeforms.

...

Dong! Dong! Dong!

With the continuous influx of Spirit Qi frenzy, a violent heartbeat sounded from the core of the Sunfall Star Realm, causing the earth to tremble, mountains to collapse, and visible spatial ripples to spread into the dark void.

This terrifying creature was about to emerge prematurely!

The heavens collapsed, the earth shattered, and evil light shot straight into the sky. In a short time, the entire Sunfall Star Realm had changed appearance, covered with web-like cracks, each stretching tens of thousands of miles, with hot magma flowing, seemingly ready to explode anytime.

But just then, the Celestial Essence Star Realm suddenly burst with brilliance, golden divine power surged like tides, and several majestic golden shadows towered into the void, heavily encircling the Sunfall Star Realm. They were none other than Tai Shi, Gen Mountain Monarch, Shen Xu, Profound, Yin Bai, and other True Gods of the Human Race Divine Path.

Having been nurtured by divine power for years, Yin Bai now looked completely different, clad in golden armor and a profound helmet, with ribbons fluttering, exuding majesty between his brows, and coldly snorted: "This beast dares to emerge prematurely. Now that the Divine Dynasty is in closed cultivation, it is best to set up a grand array to eliminate it early."

He had enough confidence to say so. Now the All Heaven Star Array was more formidable, supplemented by the Star Shining Thunderfire Shuttle; even if an Evil God clone came, it would turn to dust.

Tai Shi's eyes flickered with golden light: "Don't rush, the Sect Leader had foreseen this disaster. Although the timing is earlier, we just need to follow the plan."

As he spoke, the Divine Path network already communicated with the deities.

Tai Shi nodded slightly at the towering Giant God of the Mountains: "Friend Gen Mountain Monarch, if you please."

"By the divine decree!"

Gen Mountain Monarch immediately advanced, transforming into a stream of light towards the Sunfall Star Realm, with golden divine power permeating across the mountains and lands, gradually merging with the outer shell of the entire Star Realm.

Being the God of Kunlun Mountain, he excelled at controlling the earth veins. With the robust support of divine power from the Divine Path network, the originally near-bursting Sunfall Star Realm began to change. Countless magma cooled and rose, transforming into various talismans as large as mountains, eventually forming a grand array engulfing the entire star.

The next to act was the Nether God Profound, clad in a black Emperor's Robe, shrouded in black mist, with no unnecessary words, directly transforming into a black light and plunging into the core of the Sunfall Star Realm.

The Nether God Profound was formed from the reincarnation of the Celestial Essence Star, having absorbed the Earth Evil Silver Lotus core and the power of the Divine Path, his might was second only to the Divine Path leader Tai Shi.

Originally, Zhang Kui would need the power of the Nether Soil Stone Sarcophagus to influence reincarnation, but for the True God Profound, it was as easy as breathing, instantly arriving at the interval between the Yin and Yang Realms, witnessing the core reincarnation of the Sunfall Star Realm.

The Sunfall Star Realm was a cosmic anomaly, its reincarnation unlike ordinary Life Stars. In the boundless darkness, a scorching sun was spinning with a roar, the Reincarnation Crystal Stone emitted a fierce radiance, having now transformed into a giant egg.

Within the giant egg, shadows seemed to be writhing, and soon pair after pair of gigantic eyes opened, gazing at Profound from the crystal wall, emanating endless ferocity.

With a stern and cold expression, the Nether God Profound lifted his hand and paced forward, a grand bell sound resonating in the void, with the core of the Celestial Essence Star Realm simultaneously rotating in the distance. A mystical power descended from afar, and the reincarnation crystal wall of the Sunfall Star Realm began to slowly melt, with numerous spikes extending out, gradually revealing the form of the Earth Evil Silver Lotus.

This was the secret hand that enabled Zhang Kui to make a fresh start, also a significant mission for the birth of Profound, transforming and assimilating the reincarnation of Life Stars through the power of the Earth Evil Silver Lotus core.

Within the reincarnation giant egg, the terrifying creature seemed to sense a descending crisis, releasing grand, mournful roars repeatedly. The crystal wall resonated with thunderous vibrations, cracks appeared, and it was willing to sacrifice its cultivation to be born prematurely and escape entanglement.

However, it was already too late.

With the continuous influx of power from the Earth Evil Silver Lotus core, the reincarnation gradually formed its own world, and the surrounding binding force grew even stronger.

In the external void, Tai Shi's eyes emitted divine light, "Friend Profound has succeeded, fellow friends, attack with me together!"

Speaking, he waved his hand, and the Divine Court Bell resounded thunderously.

At this moment, the Divine Court Bell had become more archaic, vaguely displaying the ancient demeanor of the Immortal King Tower, its majestic bell chimes resonating everywhere, with surging divine power enveloping the entire Sunfall Star Realm.

Zhang Kui has bestowed numerous Talisman Arrays and Immortal Talismans to the Divine Path, with Tai Shi, Shen Xu, and Yin Bai joining forces. The mountain and river talisman arrays formed on the Sunfall Star Realm were ignited, unleashing an endless killing intent soaring into the sky.

Indeed, since Zhang Kui discovered the secret of the Sunfall Star Realm, he conceived an idea to refine this doomed Star Realm into a Magical Artifact, as part of the Kaiyuan Divine Dynasty's foundation.

Rumble, the Sunfall Star Realm's sky and earth changed color.

Countless mountain and river talisman arrays were activated, as the black crust meteorites were continuously compressed, gradually revealing a metallic luster, with Divine Power shimmering.

Meanwhile, the Kunlun Mountain God, Gen Mountain Monarch, also began exerting his strength. The entire star gradually tilted, with the north and south poles collapsing with a boom, revealing huge pits that were pitch black, as if leading to an endless abyss...

Refining a star into a Supreme Treasure for attack and defense, Zhang Kui had countless ideas, eventually settling on a plan similar to a death star.

This was a long process, and unknowingly several months had passed. The originally black Sunfall Star Realm had now transformed into a black-gold state, with the surface's mountain and river talisman arrays connected into one, exuding a chilling aura.

Yet this was only the beginning.

Deep within the earth's core, the Reincarnation Core had completely transformed into the form of an Earth Evil Silver Lotus, with a world of its own at the center. That terrifying creature also revealed its form, surprisingly an Exotic Fire Dragon, covered entirely in Bone Armor, with three heads and menacing horns under which there were nine pairs of fiery eyes, surrounded by a fiery cloud.

This was a powerful creature, which, if unleashed, could devour Reincarnation and quickly transform into a Void Giant Beast, a Starry Sky Dominator level existence, but it was interrupted by the Human Race Divine Path in tandem.

Even trapped, the Exotic Fire Dragon was extremely furious, constantly exuding its scorching True Fire Origin, trying to melt the Reincarnation World, unwilling to be tamed even if it meant mutual destruction.

Suddenly, it stopped, its many fiery eyes gazing into the void, filled with longing and fear.

In the sky above Kunlun Mountain in the Celestial Essence Star Realm, Sun Divine Wood Talisman Arrays slowly appeared. Then, a silver sun shone in all directions, and the Sunfall Star Realm also began to slowly move toward the sun.

This is the Yin Yang True Fire Origin, combining True Sun Fire and Red Lotus Karmic Fire, which holds immense attraction for the Exotic Fire Dragon, yet it is also its nemesis.

Unknowingly, the Sunfall Star Realm gradually aligned with the Yin Yang True Fire Origin, and the Exotic Fire Dragon frantically devoured the Yin Yang True Fire, turning silver all over, while the fierce glint in its eyes also disappeared, replaced by bewilderment.

As it devoured the Yin Yang True Fire, it was also refined by the True Fire, completely transforming into the True Fire Soul.

From the void, the Celestial Essence Star Realm now featured a massive silver fireball atop the dazzling Silver Lotus, connected with the All Heaven Star Array.

Through this refinement, the Human Race's Divine Power suffered considerable loss. Numerous True God images faded, gradually hidden in the void.

Originally, this Star Level Magical Treasure could also be refined by the Profound Pavilion members but would require more than a hundred years. However, with the impending great war, they could only expend Divine Power to complete it swiftly.

...

Unknowingly, a year had already passed.

The Spirit Qi Frenzy gradually subsided, and in the many Spirit Mountain Cities of the Celestial Essence Star Realm, countless ordinary cultivators slowly opened their eyes.

Rumble, dense thunder and black clouds gathered.

Many people looked toward the sky, eyes full of envy, knowing that a Mahayana had achieved True Immortality; from then on, their True Essence overflowed, granting them a lifespan of ten thousand years.

Amid the rolling thunderclouds, numerous terrifying Qi Mechanisms occupied their respective sides; roughly counting, there were hundreds.

These are the submitters who arrived successively. They were originally of Immortal Level Tao Cultivation, and after converting from the Immortal Path to the Human Race's new Immortal Path, though their Tao Cultivation was cut off, they could quickly make up for it.

But above the Yellow Pavilion in Kunlun Mountain, one figure was exceptionally eye-catching. Her clothes fluttered, her divine presence was unparalleled, her beautiful eyes gleamed like starlight; she was the former Shaman Goddess, Manzudina.

In a sword-shaped Spirit Mountain Cave Mansion on the second layer of the Celestial Essence Star Realm, Ye Fei looked at Zhu Sheng beside him with a bitter smile. "I never expected that it would be Manzudia who became Immortal first. Master, this disciple is incompetent, still just a step away."

Zhu Sheng smiled faintly. "Every genius of the Divine Dynasty has their own fortune. Manzudia specializes in the Divine Path and has now inherited the position of Yellow Pavilion High Priest, naturally becoming Immortal first."

"You cultivate the Nine Revolutions Golden Core Skill, naturally harder than others, but with a profound foundation. You will go farther after becoming Immortal than I did. In seeking the Dao, focus on dedication, not competing for vanity."

"Thank you, Master, for your teachings."

Ye Fei respectfully cupped his hands and then both looked toward the void, where the silver firelight-wreathed Sunfall Star Realm was.

Now having stepped into the Half-Immortal Realm, Ye Fei still displayed a fervent gaze. "The Sect Leader's Divine Power is truly unimaginable; who knows what formidable might it will unleash!"

Zhu Sheng smiled faintly, "With the great war approaching, it will be known in the future."

Then, his divine light-eyes penetrated the heavens and earth, frowning slightly, "Strange, there's no movement on Kunlun Mountain; why hasn't the Sect Leader emerged from seclusion?"

Now that the Spirit Qi Frenzy had subsided, there was no news from Zhang Kui, making many high-ranking members of the Divine Dynasty anxious.

At that moment, all beings of the Divine Dynasty, from Immortals to mortals, felt an overwhelming sense of dread in their hearts.

This feeling did not originate from Kunlun Mountain but from the vast void, in the direction of the Colorless Star Realm...
