Chapter 793
Reforging the Desolate Star Halberd
"Besides, why didn't that boy from the Nine Heavens come in person, but instead sent you?"
The voice was extremely calm, yet it carried a hint of surprise, as if it came from the depths of the starry illusion, causing one's heart to tremble instinctively.
The last time Jiang Shu saw this sage's avatar, he was only at the Dao Lord realm.
At that time, it was like looking at the moon through a well, only seeing a small part of it, and one could only feel one's own insignificance and the terror of heaven and earth.
However, things are different now; the person in front of him now gives him a completely different feeling.
In a sense, Jiang Shu could only see a glimpse of this senior's back, which was incredibly distant. But it was just a glimpse of his back, like a mortal looking up at a distant mountain on the horizon and seeing only a corner of it. That was all.
At that moment, the blurry figure slightly turned its gaze and said, "Broken again?"
A strange smile appeared on Jiang Shu's lips.
Unexpectedly, when he met this senior again, the other party was more concerned about the Desolate Star Halberd, which had broken again, than about the shocking thing he was about to say.
However, Jiang Shu nodded obediently.
“Senior, when I was fighting a powerful Venerable, that thing broke and could no longer support me.”
The blurry figure looked at him and seemed to chuckle softly, "Boy, your growth rate has surprised even this old man."
"If these things were given to other people, they would probably be used for hundreds of years without much trouble."
"Bring it here."
Jiang Shu nodded and sent over the fragments of the Desolate Star Halberd he had collected on the battlefield.
The sage's avatar pointed a finger, and in an instant, countless laws of power descended, as if condensing into a great furnace of the Great Dao, rapidly burning the fragments of the Desolate Star Halberd.
In an instant, that Great Dao Furnace turned the fragments of the Desolate Star Halberd into a solution.
The sage's avatar pondered for a moment, then took out something from his sleeve that made Jiang Shu raise an eyebrow slightly.
It was a head, but not the head of a living being; it was a mechanical head!
The more Jiang Shu looked at it, the more he felt that this head seemed somewhat similar to the head of the mechanical mother he had seen before.
"This is……"
Just as he was about to ask, he heard the sage's clone laugh and say, "You're right, it's that head, the head of the third mechanical mother clone, which I removed for my collection."
"This……"
Jiang Shu felt a little flustered for some reason, after all, he would probably have to deal with the No. 3 mechanical mother body later.
But after thinking about it, since this sage could bring it out, it must be a top-quality material, so he simply agreed. After all, why not take it?
"Thank you, senior!"
The sage's avatar didn't speak, but casually tossed the head into the Great Dao Furnace.
In an instant, the Great Dao Furnace began to burn fiercely, and the head, at a speed visible to the naked eye, turned into streams of liquid that flowed into the fragments of the Desolate Star Halberd.
In an instant, Jiang Shu saw one Dao pattern after another climbing onto his treasure!
"This time, the reforging has been successful again, and its power and efficacy will surely far exceed those of the past."
Jiang Shu was overjoyed. In just a short while, he witnessed the Great Dao Furnace gradually flowing into the Desolate Star Halberd.
In an instant, the reforged Desolate Star Halberd was completed. Its blade was sharp and fierce, as if it could shatter and destroy everything, carrying an extremely terrifying aura.
"Take it. As long as you don't reach the Saint realm, you can use this indefinitely, but I don't know how many years it will take."
The sage chuckled softly, then sat down again and took another sip of wine:
"Speak, what brings you here?"
Jiang Shu quickly put away the Desolate Star Halberd, then raised his hand in a respectful bow: "Reporting to the Sage, the Doomsday Cult has reappeared, and their target is none other than that small universe..."
In a short while, Jiang Shu recounted the story. The sage listened in silence, then nodded slightly: "I see. Perhaps, perhaps there is something important hidden there, a crucial sacred object, or perhaps a sage sealed within."
"saint?"
Jiang Shu was slightly surprised and showed a hint of astonishment.
He couldn't understand for a moment why the saint of the Doomsday Cult would stay here. Could he be a powerful figure left over from that great calamity?
If that's really the case, then the age of that powerful figure is probably beyond his expectations.
"Back then, during that great calamity, we old folks had all sorts of guesses, but they were just guesses."
"It's just that one of the leaders of the Doomsday Cult has fallen, or perhaps a crucial item has been lost, but in any case..."
The sage's avatar slowly turned his gaze and then said, "Then you must continue your journey and resolve the hidden dangers."
"Right now, my main body and the other old guys are doing something more important, so I'm afraid I won't be able to lend a hand."
More important things...
Jiang Shu was suddenly startled, wondering what this senior was planning.
After a moment, Jiang Shu nodded respectfully, "This junior understands."
"You may leave now. I will keep an eye on this matter."
"Yes."
Jiang Shu didn't ask any further questions, simply nodded, and left.
In a short while, Jiang Shu left the place.
Once everything was quiet, suddenly, another figure appeared in front of the saint's avatar.
"Looks pretty good. There are actually such beings among the younger generation of the human race. I'm afraid that in a few hundred years, he might be able to reach the same level as us. I really want to see how this kid performs then."
As soon as he finished speaking, the figure sat down to the side, leisurely and content, as if he were the master of the place.
The figure was dressed in a long black robe, his attire extremely simple, except for nine stars embroidered on his chest. His tone and attitude showed that he was on par with the ancestor of the War Alliance, not at a disadvantage.
The War Alliance Ancestor chuckled and then said, "What a joke! There are still hundreds of years between us?"
"Therefore, if we want it to play a crucial role in the future, I'm afraid..."
The Saint Avatar of the War Alliance slowly swirled his wine glass, drank it all in one gulp, and said, "Unless he can break through to the Saint realm within a few decades, he might be qualified to participate in that battle. Otherwise, he will just be a spectator on the sidelines."
"That's true, but I have a nagging feeling..."
The figure in black robes looked up into the distance, as if he could see Jiang Shu's back, and said, "He might be able to do it, to become one of our peers in just a few decades."
"Let's wait and see if this kid can achieve great things."
As soon as they finished speaking, the two looked at each other, and then both figures disappeared at the same time.
……
Just half a day later, the alliance quickly gathered the necessary resources.
Jiang Shu did not linger there. He took the two Venerables, Li Yang and the others, and immediately used the power of the Tongtian Jianmu to leave this place and head towards the Dark Star Region.
The two moved extremely fast, and returned in just one day.
When his aura was revealed, Zhan Jiuxiao came forward and said with some surprise, "It was so fast, but it's a good thing. What did the ancestor say?" "He said that we should pay special attention to this. He has other important matters to attend to. His main body cannot descend, but his clone may be able to keep an eye on things."
"All right……"
Zhan Jiuxiao immediately showed a hint of helplessness, then nodded slightly: "That's what he told me too. We shouldn't delve too deeply into matters at the Saint level; doing so would only cause more problems."
"it is good."
Jiang Shu nodded slightly, then said, "I brought the materials."
He reached out and took out the corresponding items, which were all the resources needed to repair Star City.
Zhan Jiuxiao nodded slightly, and soon these resources were delivered to the mechanical race's mother avatar.
The Machine Race, as expected of the race most skilled in such methods in the universe, immediately began to rebuild the Star City using relevant techniques. In addition, a massive amount of energy was also gathered and integrated into the Star City.
Jiang Shu watched silently, seemingly lost in thought, but made no move.
The next day, the Zerg Queen's Guard returned with a large amount of resources.
The mechanical race's mother entity accepted these resources and continued to use them for repairs.
On the third day, the reinforcements sent by the machine race returned, bringing with them three corpses.
Each one is of the Venerable level and can be used for burning torches.
After waiting another day, Star City was completely completed. Then, the mechanical mother mobilized a massive amount of power and reopened that door.
The gateway to the microcosm!
As a strong person, one steps into it once, which also includes that torch.
However, a moment later, they set foot around Cangyu Star again.
Almost the instant the aura appeared, a streak of light flew out of the space station, and Elder Lei arrived.
Elder Lei arrived in a hurry, looking puzzled, and asked, "Why has it taken so long this time? Could something have happened?"
Jiang Shu nodded: "Elder, you guessed right."
He quickly recounted the story of the Doomsday Cult.
Elder Lei was speechless, then revealed a hint of anger, "It's a pity I wasn't there that day, otherwise I really would have killed one or two of those traitors from the Doomsday Cult!"
He gritted his teeth, regretting that he wasn't there that day.
"Of course there is an opportunity."
Jiang Shu narrowed his eyes, a hint of killing intent also appearing in them.
His feud with the Doomsday Cult naturally had a long history.
Elder Lei nodded slightly, looked up at the torch in the distance, and said, "Is it also a creation that combines the wisdom of our human saints and the mechanical race's mother body?"
"Not bad!"
Jiang Shu nodded immediately.
"Now, the best course of action is to set up this torch as soon as possible so that other beings can detect us. Of course, we have already prepared the corresponding strength."
He naturally still remembered the so-called dark forest theory.
Therefore, the three major races once again dispatched a wave of powerful individuals into this small universe to rebuild their core strength.
"Go and fetch them now."
Jiang Shu immediately set off and quickly found Huang Xuesheng and Ming Haoguang there.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, what brings you here?"
"Naturally, it is a very important matter."
Jiang Shu smiled and said, "Perhaps that will allow our human race to rebuild its former glory and unite once again."
Hearing these words, Huang Xuesheng and Ming Haoguang were both surprised, wondering what this powerful figure would do next.
"Could you please tell us something?"
"Naturally."
Jiang Shu chuckled. The two of them had come all the way here, and then they saw the torch that looked like a giant pillar of fire.
Upon seeing the torch, the two were immediately awestruck, sensing the rich atmosphere of time and space contained within it.
"This is……"
Huang Xuesheng swallowed hard: "What is this thing? I can feel the strong spatial and temporal laws within it?"
Among the Venerables, Huang Xuesheng is the kind who is extremely specialized in one area. Apart from certain spatial laws, he is almost only good at the corresponding devouring laws.
However, not only him, but even Ming Haoguang standing to the side was surprised and shocked.
It is completely incomprehensible what this thing is.
Jiang Shu spoke leisurely: "Do you all still remember why we couldn't find allies? Wasn't it because we simply didn't know where to find any allies?"
After saying that, he smiled slightly again:
"This item is called a torch. It is a treasure that we have painstakingly researched and developed. It can light up an area in that subspace and demonstrate its existence."
"The main thing is that they can detect our presence in that star field, and they also know our coordinates, so they can come at any time."
As soon as the words were spoken, the two were instantly stunned and speechless.
"This this……"
Both of them were venerable beings and naturally intelligent people, and they immediately understood the profound meaning behind it.
With this item in hand, others will know the exact coordinates of a location.
In that chaotic and ever-changing subspace, it's as if there's an eternal and unchanging anchor point, allowing one to reach this place by following the anchor point and receiving the guidance of the light.
Without a doubt, it's like suddenly lighting a campfire in the dark of night; any strong person could spot it.
"However, what if this attracts a disaster like the Zerg?!"
Ming Haoguang frowned, clearly thinking of something, and immediately spoke with lingering fear.
They were almost wiped out by a swarm of insects, so naturally they were filled with doubt and fear.
Seeing their doubtful reactions, Jiang Shu didn't care at all and said, "Of course, that would be the best. Do you all know why?"
"Why?"
Jiang Shu gently raised his hand, then stroked the massive torch and said, "Because, in order to maintain this torch, in addition to needing a massive amount of energy, it also requires the appearance of a Venerable One."
"If we want to maintain the original territory of the Human Federation, we need to burn all the early-stage Venerable Realm experts every month." (End of Chapter)
