Chapter 1276 1270: NDAE, Enlightenment & Overestimation

"Oh!"

The Astral Core Realm cultivators, excluding Starlords, began to teem with interest and excitement. A few young, hot- blooded geniuses and Chosen yelped with joy while the seniors were already delivering stern and solemn instructions to those eligible.

"Finally!"

This was what they expected-a compet.i.tion to obtain great benefits, challenging those of their generation. Thecultivation range was perfect for the Chosen of this era, especially those qualified to partic.i.p.ate in the upcoming Chosen King Compet.i.tion.???Most Alchemic Expos had compet.i.tions for the younger generation, typical bouts to showcase their talents and receive some investments from the hosting alchemist. Quite a few famous Alchemic Knights were discovered during this period, such as the Ever-Knights, excavating their talents and receiving dedicated nurturing from the alchemist in question.

The Grand Knight of Neo-Dawn was the most publicly known Alchemic Knight of Ascendant Emperor Wei, so the standard of Wei Wuyin's Alchemic Knight was utterly fantastic. Most were under the a.s.sumption that the Armored Saint and the other Earthly Saints that had shown themselves defending the Neo-Dawn Starfield that day belonged to a terrifyingly hidden organization that had nurtured Wei Wuyin, exceeding Trueborn in mystery and strength, so they didn't count them as personally nurtured.???"You must obtain this pill!" Tian Lingyu fiercely reminded the princes and princesses of the younger generation. They all jumped at her deep and forceful tone, their hearts seized by a tinge of pressure and fear.

Tian Muyang noticed this and awkwardly smiled from the side. Tian Lingyu's att.i.tude was appropriate, but her anxiety was corrupting the emotions of the young. The pressure they felt definitely intensified after seeing her.

He eased in, "This third product of Wei Wuyin is considerably more important than the first two, as it will open up an opportunity for you to potentially reach the true peak of the Astral Core Realm. The other two products cannot do so, especially given our world's current circ.u.mstance."

True peak????The brows of the youngsters lifted.

"What do you mean?" A young, tall, handsome prince garbed in pristine white asked curiously. He was Tian Baiyan; he had the same mother as Tian Guyan, and he was the Sixth Prince of the Imperial Clan and also at the Realm World Phase of the Astral Core Realm, the Seventh Stage. The aura he gave off was one of hidden arrogance and restrained pride in the depths of his bones, suppressed only by the monstrouspresence of Earthly Saints.???Tian Muyang glanced at the Sixth Prince. The Seventh Prince-Tian Yinwu, the Sixth Prince-Tian Baiyan, and the Fifth Prince- Tian Jianghan, were the three official princes eligible for the Chosen King Compet.i.tion, and they each carried a type of peerless charm to them. The first felt like a fallen immortal, the second reminded him of a tyrannical ruler, and the last felt like a sword immortal with the sword as their lamp through the path of cultivation.

None of them was average relative to their cultivation base, especially Tian Yinwu, whose feats shocked the world.???He glanced at the corner of the Imperial Clan's area, finding a middle-aged man with a scruffy dark-colored beard wearing a grey-colored swordsmen robe with an air of comfort. Despite his appearance, which looked older than Tian Muyang, he was considerably younger than most could guess, only having four hundred years of cultivation beneath his belt. By his hip was a sheathed sword of a black color, accompanied by a brown jug of wine that gave off a sweet fragrance.

When Tian Jianghan felt Tian Muyang's gaze, he turned his attention to him and put forth an acknowledging smile and a respectful bow. He didn't seem to have any arrogance in his bones, not respectfully acting due to suppression but through an unrestrained mind.???Tian Muyang knew that the Empress was going to begin the next compet.i.tion soon, so he hurriedly explained. After exceeding Mortal Limits, most Ascended could explain the properties and limitations of the Mortal Realms to non-Ascended despite the difficulties of cultivation. It was much how Wu Jiao of the Wu Imperial Clan in the Wu Country could lecture about the principles of the Qi Condensation Realm witharticulate poise.???They, however, could only have lingering regret after looking back. Once one Ascended, there was no path back. Not even losing one's physical body and destroying their Mystic Soul was enough because their Existential Framework had Ascended, so they could only exist as cultivators of the Mystic Dao. The only reason the details of the Astral Core Realm weren't widely spread largely had to do with the Sealed Region's inability to reach it.

The War of Fallen Stars was said to have been caused by the Echoing Stars of the Vastness Pill as the Seven Sages Tower began to launch a merciless crusade to obtain natural Solar Stars at all cost, but another contributor was the Ascended beings that were being born during the era with the knowledge of the Astral Core Realm's principles.???"The foundation of the Mortal Realms is defined by four aspects-Body, Mind, Essence, and Spirit; these four aspects formulate the basis of all three Mortal Realms and focus on training and elevating these qualities to the next level.

"The Star Core Phase is the finalization of those principles. Your body is your Astral Physique; your mind is your World-Bound Star Domain; your essence is your Starforce; your Spirit is your Astral Idol."

"Astral Idol?" Instantly, the younger generation all jumped with interest. Tian Muyang realized that the Empress was quiet and that his voice was being transmitted throughout the entire World of Eden while all other voices were subdued. He had taken center stage, and he could only smile softly in his heart. Was this what she was waiting for????As a recognized authority, his words would be absorbed much easier and at face value, especially since these words were instructions given to the princes and princesses of his own lineage.

In the subs.p.a.ce, Wei Wuyin couldn't help but heave a sigh in his heart. Guan Yu, whom he met at the Nexus Battlefield decades ago, had tried to explain the concept of an Astral Idol to him, but quite a few details were utterly inconsistent with what he obtained from his alternative self's memories.???Tian Baiyan, the Sixth Prince, instantly caught on to Tian Muyang's implication. "Are you saying we need to reach the peak of Body, Mind, and Essence to form our Spirit, or rather, the Astral Idol?" While he hadn't heard of it before, the term Astral Idol inspired an invisible type of natural reverence within every Astral Core Realm cultivator's heart. It was similar to how mana felt just right when describing the glue of the world.

Tian Muyang nodded solemnly, "The World- Bound Star Domain has more or less been forgotten during our era because to do so required a cultivator to possess a natural Solar Star that they would bring into their Star Core Astral Tribulation. Only by possessing a natural object of the peak of the Mortal Dao can one connect their minds to the will of Mortal Dao and invoke the greatest power as a Starlord.???"Does anyone know why the t.i.tle of Starlord was given?" Tian Muyang thought for a moment and asked. The history behind the Starlord t.i.tle is far too ancient to delve into, but the intent behind its naming sense that was officially recognized by cultivators across the universe was consistently known thanks to Ascended level Heavenly Seers.

"Because we harness the power of the stars!" A young, cute princess dressed in red and gold said excitedly. The Star Core Phase was about condensing all of one's cultivated strength into a Solar Star-like object, allowing them access to this peak display of Mortal Dao's profound power. It completely encapsulated the limits of the Mortal Realms.

And how Ascended beings could snuff them out with some effort showed the vast disparity between them.???"Not exactly," Tian Muyang sighed in his heart. This line of knowledge about cultivation had been forgotten, so it was sad to see such ignorance. He continued: "It's because of your Astral Idols! To put it plainly, you're only a true Starlord if you cultivate an Astral Idol, and only when you've touched the peak of the Mortal Dao will you grasp the true meaning of being a Starlord!"

Wei Wuyin nodded in the subs.p.a.ce. While the description was somewhat lacking, Tian Muyang didn't delve into it further because he feared a further delving into the topic could induce unnecessary confusion, but he was right. Only when cultivators at the Star Core Phase obtained a World-Bound Star Domain could they understand what cultivating to the peak of the Mortal Realms, harnessing the will of the Mortal Dao, and exerting the power of the stars could truly mean.???With it, Wei Wuyin had ruthlessly suppressed an Earthly Saint as a mortal. Moreover, it wasn't even with an Astral Idol. If he merged his Astral Physique, Starforce, and World-Bound Star Domain as one, he would experience an unG.o.dly level of power the touched upon a profound Dao. Countless believed that the Mortal Dao was inferior to the Mystic Dao, but that was far from the truth.

Tian Muyang explained some more, and it caused the younger generation's ignorance to clear up as paths to the peak began to formulate within their young minds. Those knowing of this discarded information were utterly solemn, especially since their potential advantage was collapsing with each word.???San Yongli stared heavily at the jade box that contained the Neo-Dawn Star-Seed Pill. She asked internally, "Can this pill create a natural Solar Star?"

A voice spurred from her Sea of Consciousness, contained within a half yin- yang symbol formed of emerald-colored jade that exuded a soft yet terrifying radiance. The radiance infused into her Sea of Consciousness and slowly but surely widened it.

"Yes." A voice, feminine in tone yet carrying a type of haughty inflection that was extremely tyrannical, reverberated within her mind.

"Are you sure?" San Yongli's frown deepened as the disparate soul of an ancient expert answered her question.

"Are you doubting me? I said yes!" The voice sounded slightly cold, originating from the jade.???San Yongli's eyes dimmed; the disparate soul was in a state no different than Wu Yu, contained in the soul-nouris.h.i.+ng and mind- nurturing heavenly treasure and unable to reformulate their body. She had acquired this jade before a future Emperor-level figure could, not expecting there to be a disparate soul within, but now knew that their rise in the Book of Heaven's Path was heavily attributed to this soul.

However, unlike Wu Yu, the Ever-Rebirth Pill wasn't enough to rebirth their body because their cultivation base greatly exceeded the limit. If they used one, their body would be incomplete and low-leveled. The soul needed specific earthly treasures or a mystic-graded equivalent of an Ever- Rebirth Pill to form a proper body.???San Yongli could only sigh; the vast effort she put into finding an alternative to establis.h.i.+ng a World-Bound Star Domain was rendered pointless. All those years... wasted.

After Tian Muyang finished his explanation, the Astral Core Realm was more or less understood. Countless now knew that the path in the Mortal Realms was far more profound than they realized. However, Tian Muyang had repeated at least three times throughout his explanation that a World- Bound Star Domain amplified the difficulty of the Star Core Astral Tribulation by a considerable degree.???It was so intense that 99% of those during the War of Fallen Stars had failed their tribulations, causing countless natural Solar Stars to die out due to their foolish overestimating of their strength. Of course, the greatest reason for this was due to the Solar Stars having been nurtured to t.i.tan and Colossus sizes by the original owners of those Stellar Regions who had legitimate Earthly and Worldly Saints. With the foundation of those barely having touched the Mystic Ascendant Realm, it was easy to understand how they overestimated themselves.

Soon, the focus moved from the World- Bound Star Domain to the Echoing Stars of the vastness Pill, which solidified the terror that was the War of Fallen Stars.???"I must thank Imperial Monarch Muyang for his detailed lecture regarding the principles of the World-Bound Star Domain and theStar Core Phase. Now, we'll begin the next segment. Those who don't wish to partic.i.p.ate, please mentally shout: I do not wish to partic.i.p.ate. The World of Eden will exclude you. A friendly reminder, this segment will not be without its struggles, and you can be severely injured and even lose your life. So be sure to think this through; we will not be responsible for your life." Tian Xiaocheng was happy that she didn't have to say a whole mouthful regarding the Star Core Phase.

"Those who can remain conscious for five minutes will receive a Neo-Dawn Star-Seed Pill." She stated the very simple and non- descriptive words that only left many with a foreboding feeling.???After five minutes of receiving the scant few that bowed out, Tian Xiaocheng announced: "We begin! I wish you all the best of luck."This test will send pressure into your Sea of Consciousness, testing the strength of your mind!" Just as she began, before anyone could properly react...

ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!

ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!

ROAR!!!

Seven dragons that governed the world all roared in unison, and a wave of incredible pressure descended across the World of Eden!
