I'm in Shrouding the Heavens Practicing Eternal Life
#268 - Sun and Moon
Under normal circumstances, without targeted curses, or situations like Luo Mo's where the Heavenly Tribulation is difficult to gauge, ordinary cultivators can overcome tribulations relatively easily.
Especially when this ordinary cultivator is merely an ordinary Eight-Forbidden, has read dozens of Emperor Ancient Scriptures, learned the Nine Secrets and Six Syllable Mantra, and hasn't even permanently resided in the God-Forbidden realm, ordinary to the point of being utterly unremarkable.
The lightning from the Great Saint Tribulation shattered the Black-Robed Ancestral King into pieces, and he simply transformed into a river of blue ghostly flames browsing the starry sky, manifesting their clan's true form, like specters, extremely adept at concealment and assassination.
He allowed the lightning to temper him, his true self unmoved, reshaping his body and enjoying the services of the Heavenly Tribulation.
His magical artifacts were also pierced by the Heavenly Tribulation, but they were left with imprints containing the laws of the Great Dao. As long as they were re-refined, they could reach a higher level.
The Black-Robed Ancestral King was struck back and forth by the calm and uneventful lightning tribulation more than a dozen times before entering the Great Saint realm. He hadn't even used many of his methods, merely relying on the accumulation and foundation of the Shrouding Heaven Dharma to cross this barrier, sitting alone in the starry sky, enjoying the Great Dao imprints bestowed upon him by the Heavenly Tribulation after overcoming the calamity, while also repairing his magical artifacts, thoroughly refining them into Great Saint weapons.
The other tool-like figures undergoing tribulation had already returned ahead of him; their tribulations were even faster than the Black-Robed Ancestral King's.
"Congratulations."
This was the first Great Saint in their camp, already surpassing the Source Art Avatar in terms of realm.
"Thank you for your guidance, fellow Daoist. Without you, I would not be where I am today."
Having been converted, Luo Mo naturally wouldn't be stingy with resources to nurture them. Their lives had been completely changed as a result. If they were left on their original trajectory, how could they have such good fortune, comprehending so many Ancient Emperor scriptures and Heavenly Venerate secret techniques, and having an endless supply of Pure Yang Pills to cultivate with?
If he used them to attack GG, he might even be able to recruit some Saints, who knows.
Faced with the reality of lifespan nearing its end and no path forward in sight, and the path of surrendering which offers numerous Ancient Emperor scriptures, Heavenly Venerate secret techniques, and an endless supply of Pure Yang Pills, many people would probably be tempted, even if the price was losing themselves.
Not everyone is a chosen one; not everyone can sever a path against the odds at the Severing Dao stage.
Most cultivators can sever something when severing their Dao, succumbing to the rules, and there might very well be a second time.
Thinking too far ahead.
"Now that you have all successfully undergone tribulation, let's go to a place."
Before returning to Yao Guang, Luo Mo had another place to go.
That place was—
In the distant starry sky, a point of golden light eternally burned. This was the largest star nearby, the sun of the Beidou Ancient Star.
The Sun Star, containing the True Sun Fire, and upon it, a palace left behind by the Sun Saint Emperor.
Although there probably weren't any treasures, the building itself was a good stronghold. For his soon-to-be-established Sun Moon Divine Dynasty, having a palace on the Sun and Moon seemed very reasonable and logical, right?
The Sun Star.
This was a star.
And not just any star. It wasn't just the power of fusion churning, but also the Sun Godly Fire. With the star's size and immense diameter, the Sun Godly Fire covering it was naturally boundless. Its quantity was enormous. If all the Sun Godly Fire essence was collected and refined into Sun Pills, it would be an astronomical number.
Luo Mo and his group of tools arrived here together. The Black-Robed Great Saint protected everyone with divine power, otherwise it would be difficult to get close. There was simply too much Sun Godly Fire here. A quantitative change produced a qualitative change, and the temperature was extremely high, making it difficult for even ordinary Saints to approach the core.
The Black-Robed Great Saint cleared the way, and the group went straight in, deep into the Sun Star, eventually arriving in front of an ancient palace.
The huge palace built of stone radiated a holy light. Even though the surroundings were filled with bright light that could blind ordinary cultivators, it still radiated a holy light, like a true Divine Sun. The boundless Sun Godly Fire all around revolved around it, bowing to it, and surrounding it, as if guarding their Emperor.
This was Luo Mo's target. The huge palace built of stone, apart from its brilliance, had a simple and natural shape, yet it was eternally indestructible, something that could definitely not be achieved by ordinary means.
Moreover, there was a teleportation array in the palace. They entered it and found that it was still usable, with immortal Dao patterns engraved in this ancient palace, allowing it to endure the ages.
The teleportation array was activated, instantly leading the group to the most mysterious area within the Sun Star.
Here, chaotic energy intertwined with the Sun Godly Fire and Sun Fire Essence. Chaotic energy was more commonly seen in the desolate borders of the universe, or in small, newly opened worlds, where it would leak out.
The Sun Fire Essence was the essence of the Sun Godly Fire, a treasure formed by qualitative change, useful even to Great Saints.
A cultivator like Luo Mo, with a Chaotic Body and cultivating the Sun Scripture, felt a burst of comfort here, his cultivation slowly improving with each breath.
"What pure Sun Fire Essence, and so much of it. It must be the work of an Ancient Emperor."
Luo Mo's knowledge was considerable, and he could naturally tell at a glance that the arrangement here was definitely the work of an Extreme Dao powerhouse. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so much Sun Fire Essence. This kind of treasure was a qualitative change produced by a quantitative change. A large amount of Sun Godly Fire would only produce a little Sun Fire Essence, but there was too much gathered here, obviously the work of the Sun Saint Emperor.
A person who cultivated the Sun Scripture would feel extremely comfortable here. The dojo set up by the Ancient Emperor, even if the Sun Saint Emperor was from Ziwei Star and might have only temporarily resided on the Sun Star for a period of time in Beidou, some of the arrangements in the temporary residence of the Ancient Emperor were of great use to Saint-level cultivators.
Luo Mo reached out and summoned a fire dragon dozens of feet long, the pure essence of the Sun Godly Fire, which he absorbed, every pore emitting an aura of satisfaction.
Very good resources, high quality!
This was like the purple mountain outside Purple Mountain containing earth-attribute energy and the amethyst jade soil where Jiang Taixu was imprisoned. The difference between Sun Godly Fire and Sun Fire Essence was enormous.
And here, in this small world they were teleported into, 70% of it was Sun Fire Essence. Although this small world wasn't large, it was still over two million miles in radius, only a small dot compared to the Sun Star. It seemed to be just a temporary dojo of the Sun Saint Emperor.
He might have once looked out at Beidou from here, observing the secrets of the forbidden zones and the Road to Immortality.
"Let's get to work and repair this place."
Luo Mo instantly finalized a plan in his mind, then transmitted it to the tool-like figures with his divine sense, assigning them tasks and starting to arrange this place.
The Black-Robed Ancestral King began to hold the Li Fire Furnace, a peak Quasi-Emperor weapon, to collect the Sun Fire Essence here, cleaning up this small world. Under his urging, the Li Fire Furnace turned into a gluttonous divine beast, frantically devouring the flames in this small world.
The other Saint Kings and Saints took out a large number of materials and began to set up a huge altar.
This altar was naturally set up for the Great Luo Realm.
In the future, Luo Mo planned to move the Divine Scar Purple Gold Pagoda from Five Rivers Plain to here, setting up an amplifier here, and cooperating with the Taiyin Star to spread the signal 24/7.
If he then refined a set of satellite networking magical artifacts with the imprint of his true spirit, his senses could cover any corner of Beidou Star anytime, anywhere, monitoring everything from beyond the sky.
When necessary, if his cultivation was strong enough, he could even cooperate with the great formations on the ground to directly suffocate the forbidden zones in the cesspool.
In short, it's never wrong to be prepared, whether it's useful or not.
The efficiency of a group of Saints was naturally quite high. In a short while, they cleared out the Sun Holy Palace. The Sun Saint Emperor might not have added any furniture at the time, or he did, but it was emptied by later people, leaving only the inner and outer holy palaces.
It was also a small world, and it had the Dao patterns of the Sun Saint Emperor, which could continuously produce Sun Fire Essence. Luo Mo waved his hand and took out a seat of divine soil, arranging it in it.
He had previously found the Source Art Avatar on the ship and took these things from him.
This was also why he didn't let the Source Art Avatar continue to refine Pure Yang Source Tools, because he needed some divine soil to arrange the new sect of the Sun Moon Divine Dynasty.
Yao Guang must move the sect, there was no doubt about it.
Because the Yaoguang Holy Land is above the Bronze Immortal Hall, Yaoguang has no choice but to relocate the entire sect when the Bronze Immortal Hall shows any signs of activity.
It's just a matter of moving sooner or later.
Luo Mo wasn't very satisfied with some of the places he had originally surveyed; they weren't good enough. In the end, he thought of the ancient palace on the Sun Star, believing it to be more suitable.
One piece of divine earth after another was arranged, turning this small world, originally filled with solar fire essence, into a blessed land.
Luo Mo and a group of Sages worked together to set up a grand formation, drawing the solar fire essence extracted by the Solar Saint Emperor's Dao patterns to one location in this blessed land. Then, they arranged another formation to collect all the solar fire essence, sealing it with a magical treasure, so it could be harvested periodically.
In this way, this place would continuously produce solar fire essence, which could be considered a good resource point. It would be very suitable for disciples cultivating solar scriptures to practice here in the future.
Luo Mo arranged everything roughly, then ordered a portion of the tool people to stay here, continuing to plan the details and repair the palaces.
There were still many empty spaces in the blessed land, and the key positions of many formations were still vacant. This was because Yaoguang itself also had many spirit mountains and divine earth, all accumulated in the past. When moving, they would definitely be moved together, so these spaces were reserved for the official move.
After leaving behind some of the tool people, Luo Mo collected the solar divine fire and solar fire essence previously stored in the Li Fire Furnace, then led the remaining Sages to leave and head to the Moon Star.
Although the Divine Dynasty Ceremony was held on the ground, the two palaces above the sky also needed to be prepared early.
They quickly arrived at the Moon Star.
Like the Sun Star, the Moon Star's surface flowed with cold and desolate moonlight. It was a powerful divine star, not simply a satellite reflecting the light of the sun.
The power of lunar energy here was extremely strong, and ordinary Sages could not possibly intrude into the depths.
Fortunately, Luo Mo and his group were not ordinary Sages. The Black-Robed Great Sage led the way, heading towards the center of the Moon Star, scanning with his divine sense, but did not find any palaces or similar structures.
The Lunar Human Emperor probably hadn't prepared a foothold here, which made Luo Mo a little disappointed.
But it didn't matter much.
If there was no foothold, he could just build one himself.
Upon receiving Luo Mo's orders, the group of Sages immediately began construction on the Moon Star.
With Great Sages and Sage Kings as the main force, they spent two days and two nights and a large number of pure Yang pills, supplemented by a huge amount of materials, emptying several of Luo Mo's small warehouses. A huge Moon Palace appeared on the Moon Star, its entire body like jade.
This one magical treasure consumed half of Luo Mo's stock of Nine Heavens Divine Jade!
There was no other way. The things to be used next were of relatively high quality. At the very least, a large number of Saint-level materials had to be used to barely match, otherwise it wouldn't be qualified.
There was still a lot of immortal gold, but this was to build a sect stronghold for the Sun Moon Divine Dynasty. Luo Mo was naturally reluctant to use immortal gold to build public buildings. He wasn't that rich, and he was also short of immortal gold.
Such a huge amount of materials created a nearly perfect Great Sage magical treasure.
But why was it said to be nearly perfect?
Because a small piece was missing from the top of this palace.
Luo Mo hadn't helped with refining treasures these past two days. These tool people had basically learned the essence of treasure refining techniques. They had all comprehended the Secret of Soldiers and the Great Treasure Refining Art from the Shrouding Heavens version. With the Black-Robed Great Sage present, refining a palace-type magical treasure wasn't difficult.
He didn't help, but he was also refining treasures.
It was just that the things he was refining were some broken objects that were incomprehensible.
Luo Mo had the True Spirit Seal, so he could scan a key magical treasure: a fragment of the Human Emperor Seal.
Others couldn't see through the Dao patterns on the Human Emperor Seal fragment, but he could see some of the fundamentals, and then refine some suitable things.
Afterwards, he took out the Human Emperor Seal fragment. This was a corner of the Human Emperor Seal, shattered during the ancient divine war. A relatively large fragment fell into the hands of the Lunar Quasi-Emperor, while the main body was still in the hands of the Kunlun remnants.
The moment the black corner fragment appeared on the Moon Star, the surrounding lunar energy suddenly rioted, swarming up as if welcoming their emperor.
The Lunar Human Emperor had attained Dao with lunar energy, so the Dao patterns of his magical treasure could naturally mobilize and control lunar energy, and had the right to control it.
Luo Mo manipulated this corner fragment of the Human Emperor Seal, constantly absorbing lunar energy. Thick black clouds condensed from lunar energy began to gather around this corner fragment.
Then, this corner fragment began to fall towards the top of the palace, to fill the missing corner. That position was originally left for the Human Emperor Seal fragment.
The Human Emperor Seal fragment fell into place, fitting perfectly. Although it didn't match the body below it, as if it had a different head, there was a strange harmony in this mismatch.
It was as if an ancient pyramid had a device that could emit cosmic rays installed on top. Above the Moon Palace, the Human Emperor Seal fragment, a device that could continuously gather lunar energy, was installed.
Just as the Human Emperor Seal fragment slowly fit together, the Black-Robed Great Sage and Luo Mo were fully focused.
The Black-Robed Great Sage was fully committed to stabilizing the Moon Palace he had refined, trying to fit the Human Emperor Seal, latching onto this great leg, becoming an accessory.
And Luo Mo was constantly offering the things he had refined, turning them into pieces of material and sticking them on.
Looking closely, although the Human Emperor Seal fragment looked perfectly fitted when it landed on the top of the Moon Palace, there were still obvious differences, such as in temperament.
Even if it was just a corner fragment, the Human Emperor Seal's temperament was completely different from the Moon Palace, a Great Sage weapon, with a qualitative difference, as obvious as a firefly and the bright moon.
And the things Luo Mo refined fell on it, becoming a layer of disguise for the Human Emperor Seal, like a layer of film, completely covering the Human Emperor Seal fragment, completely concealing the light and aura belonging to the Emperor Weapon, leaving only the jade-like shell.
The jade-like shell disguised the Human Emperor Seal fragment. After another half-day of adjustment, it was finally refined perfectly. A nine-colored Moon Palace sat deep within the Moon Star.
This magical treasure had finally become an ordinary Great Sage magical treasure.
But because of the Human Emperor Seal fragment, it could continuously condense lunar energy, almost comparable to a large formation.
Later, Luo Mo would slowly arrange several large formations here, gathering all the lunar energy of the Moon Star, so that this place could also become a cultivation holy land for Lunar Scripture practitioners.
After finishing this matter, there was only one day left before the Divine Dynasty Ceremony was to begin.
"You, open up some small worlds inside."
Luo Mo had to rush back to attend the Divine Dynasty Ceremony, so he left a few tool people here. As Sages, they were also able to open up small worlds. It was necessary to bind several small worlds to a base-type magical treasure like the Moon Palace. It needed to be spacious. It wouldn't do for the future holy land of the Sun Moon Divine Dynasty to be too shabby.
"Yes, Daoist friend."
Several Ancestral Kings stayed behind and began to open up small worlds, binding the world stones to some of the Moon Palace's buildings, dividing the inside of an ordinary palace into individual paradises.
Luo Mo then took the Black-Robed Great Sage and other tool people, and condensed lunar energy into Lunar Pills for half a day on the Moon Star before leaving.
Since they had come, they had to pack some things to take back.
The neighboring Sun Star had so much solar divine fire and solar fire essence taken away by Luo Mo, and with a roll of Yuan Qi, it was condensed into Solar Pills. During the Divine Dynasty Ceremony, there could be a rain of pills from the sky, celebrating with everyone.
And these two kinds of pills condensed from Yuan Qi would serve to enrich the types of pills.
Although Luo Mo had placed the Human Emperor Seal on the Moon Star, he was not worried about losing it, because of the True Spirit Seal, he could now see the magical treasures he refined at any time, regardless of distance, and those disguised materials on the Human Emperor Seal, although strangely shaped, were actually pieces of magical treasures.
He only needed to leave a wisp of divine sense to pay attention to it.
With everything prepared, Luo Mo returned to Yaoguang.
He didn't have any special emotional fluctuations regarding the Divine Dynasty Ceremony.
Because he was very busy.
After the Divine Dynasty Ceremony, after obtaining the Great Social Altar Technique, he also had to supervise the Ancient Clans to submit the materials for the Great Tide Technique as soon as possible.
Then he had to see the progress of the Blasphemy Worm's defilement of faith power, whether it had been discovered by the Amitabha Buddha faith body, and whether he needed to flip the table.
Then there was the summoning of the space-based layer of Project Big Dipper. After having the Moon Star and the Sun Star, he also needed to create something similar to a satellite network.
The summoning of the ocean of Project Big Dipper also had to be put on the agenda. Next, he would definitely have to cultivate the Longevity Mystery Realm.
After defiling a massive amount of faith power, after cultivating the Longevity Mystery Realm, he would reduce the reward for Yuan Qi collection, and then increase the expenditure on ocean development, bringing the progress of the ocean, the last link of Project Big Dipper, to the forefront.
When everything was progressing smoothly, he would also go to the starry sky. There were so many good things waiting for him in the starry sky.
Alas, so busy.
Let's just say that the capable ones do more.
