Chapter 1166: Chapter 564: Myriad Stars Convergence Formation, the Black Dragon Sea Region’s Mega Project (Part 2)

Luo Wu was quite perplexed.

He had also gained a fair amount of intelligence from the Ancient Era.

Among them, the Taixu Sect was known as the strongest sect of the Void Realm in the past, with an immensely powerful influence, almost unmatched.

But even such a sect could not expand the array over the entire Void Realm.

If that’s the case, could the Taixu Sect really be considered an invincible force?

"The Taixu Sect is indeed powerful; in terms of strength, it surely ranks first in the Void Realm."

"However, they cannot cover the Void Realm with a single hand."

"Take those ancient True Spirits, for example; nobody knows how many years they have lived, holding countless hidden cards."

"If they were to unite, the Taixu Sect would be helpless against them."

"In fact, during the Ancient Era, these True Spirits were also greatly related to ancient existences in the Immortal Realm."

"Hence, the Taixu Sect can only occupy part of the area and cannot do as they please."

The Celestial Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword explained.

Undoubtedly, the waters of the Void Realm during the Ancient Era were extraordinarily deep.

Not only did it host numerous ancient Immortal Realm traditions, concealing a large number of old monsters.

It was also occupied by a vast number of True Spirits across various regions.

Occasionally, Immortals would descend into the realm.

This led to a scenario where even sects as mighty as the Taixu Sect could not act as they pleased.

Even if the Taixu Sect attempted to expand the array, other powers would not agree.

Later, as the Void Realm faced an apocalyptic catastrophe, numerous forces began to unite out of necessity.

They also agreed to the expansion of the array.

Unfortunately, by that time it was already too late, even if they wanted to continue expanding, they could not do it.

Even at the final moment, there were still some ancient powers engaged in intrigue.

"Hmm."

Luo Wu nodded, though he wasn’t clear on what events transpired during the Ancient Era.

But it held no significance.

As long as he understood that this array was powerful and held great benefits for the sect, that was enough.

Given that thought, he continued to ask the black-robed steward, "Have other islands started constructing arrays too?"

"Indeed, as of now, ten thousand large islands in the Black Dragon Sea Region are simultaneously building arrays."

"This is an unprecedented mega-project."

"At least one hundred million cultivators have been mobilized to participate."

"Even numerous Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation cultivators have personally lent a hand."

"Once successful, it is sure to bring monumental changes to the Black Dragon Sea Region."

The black-robed steward said excitedly.

When he first learned of this array project, he was thrilled beyond measure.

Despite being only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he had the privilege to participate in such a grand project. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

He not only stood to gain a large amount of Contribution Points during this opportunity.

But also had potential for immense rewards through involvement in this array project.

After all, for many cultivators, it’s a rare chance to come into contact with high-tier arrays.

Any bit of insight gained would yield tremendous benefits for cultivators.

Therefore, numerous cultivators from the Primordial Talisman Sect eagerly participated.

"The Myriad Star Convergence Array, with ten thousand large islands as array nodes?"

"Each island is akin to a star."

"This truly is an unparalleled mega-project indeed."

"But do we have enough array materials in our sect?"

Luo Wu inquired.

Given the array will be established on ten thousand islands, the necessary materials are abundantly clear.

Certainly, some materials are bound to be extremely precious.

Typical sects would not have access to them.

If it were the previous era, a Foundation Establishment Clan wishing to build a Tier Two Array would need to expend everything they have.

Of course, if successful, this grand array, once maintained properly, could remain sound for millennia.

These materials, therefore, haven’t vanished, instead, they accompany you in another manner.

"Absolutely no problem."

"Brother Luo might not yet know the current wealth of our sect."

"After occupying the entire Black Dragon Sea Region, we no longer lack any materials."

"The underwater world holds numerous unexplored mineral veins."

"It’s practically an untapped treasure land, but now our sect is developing it."

"Basically, every moment brings copious amounts of precious materials being extracted underwater."

"Our warehouses are already filled with these rare materials, far beyond usage."

"If the sect were to release these materials, they could very well become commonplace."

The black-robed steward remarked with emotion.

He’s seen the warehouses overflow with these materials, with nowhere left to store them.

The sect has no idea how many warehouses it has had to build for storage.

It’s just that the ocean’s resources surpass those of the land.

Yet it’s not necessarily overwhelmingly richer.

The land also has numerous resources; the difference stems from the ocean’s mineral veins remaining unexploited by human cultivators’ destructive mining.

Sea Beasts living underwater do not engage in such activities.

They are better at hunting and capturing food.

Thus they have no interest in these underwater mineral veins.

Due to this, the underwater world remains primitive over countless years.

However, since Primordial Talisman Sect arrived, it’s undergone transformative changes.

Numerous Demon Beasts have been tamed, substituting human cultivators, navigating the underwater world to mine mineral veins.

Virtually every moment results in countless resources being delivered into the sect’s warehouses.

To an extent, this mega-array construction project is actually the sect clearing inventory.

Otherwise, the accumulation of precious materials in warehouses could devalue material prices, causing a price collapse; so the Primordial Talisman Sect needs to utilize these materials, transforming them into formidable power.

Otherwise, they would simply be lifeless objects.

"Indeed, the underwater world’s resources are remarkably rich."

"In the Ancient Era, it left numerous sect forces yearning to develop it."

"Sadly, both land and ocean areas were occupied by True Spirits, making it impossible for various forces to reach."

"For True Spirits, they have no need for earning money or developing these resources."

"So over time, the underwater world left countless precious resources unclaimed."

"Occupying the seas, the Primordial Talisman Sect truly seized a fertile land."

"It’s immeasurably better than occupying land."

The Celestial Dragon Demon-Slaying Sword concurred.

It clearly understood how rich the ocean resources of the Void Realm were.

Enough to make every power envious.

Yet not every force can extract them.

Because the ocean harbors countless Demon Beasts, simply inexhaustible.

To safely extract resources means dealing with these endless powerful Sea Beasts.

Without adequate strength, as many mines opened would be destroyed by these Sea Beasts.

"Indeed, underwater resources are astoundingly rich."

Luo Wu couldn’t help but nod.

He had previously visited the underwater world for observation.

For humans to survive underwater, they would need Water Repelling Talismans.

But to sustain long-term underwater living, the cost was extremely high.

Thus, the Primordial Talisman Sect opted to deploy underwater Sea Beasts to assist extraction.

This significantly increased work efficiency.

However, he hadn’t anticipated the sect achieving such substantial profit, it was beyond imagination.

......

Months later.

Luo Wu noticed the sect’s efficiency in setting up arrays across the Black Dragon Sea Region.

Perhaps the sect had prepared long in advance for this.

Arrays enveloped the upwards of ten thousand islands within the Black Dragon Sea Region.

Boom~~

In an instant, the entire Black Dragon Sea Region trembled, each island seemed like a colossal star.

They resonated with the stars deep in the void.

Beams of starlight descended from the skies, enveloping the entire sea region.

It was as if the Black Dragon Sea Region transformed into a galaxy, with innumerable stars voyaging within.

Hundreds of thousands of brilliant starlight strands covered these islands, forming mighty stellar barriers.

No matter how the Demon Beasts charged, they could not shake them in the slightest.

More importantly, due to this vast Power of the Stars, each island’s Spiritual Qi concentration rose dramatically, transforming each island into a Cultivation Holy Land.

He felt this was just the beginning.

As time progressed, the Black Dragon Sea Region was destined to gain fame throughout the Void Realm.
