Chapter 2268

The Universal Origin Cauldron had been split into two parts in the battle back then. The Everlasting Sect had kept one part, while the Everlasting Sect had brought the other part into the star path.

In the end, it was placed in Moon City to guard this city.

In the past, when Zi Chen came here, he didn't have the strength to take it away.

Now, Zi Chen, who had entered the Saint realm, had the strength to do so.

After arriving at Moon City, at the core of the formation, Zi Chen looked at the burning furnace in front of him. The half of the Universal Origin Cauldron in his hand was trembling slightly.

There was a sense of excitement that was clearly conveyed through his voice.

This time, Zi Chen didn't stop him. Instead, he let go of the Universal Origin Cauldron in his hand.

Boom!

As the Universal Origin Cauldron was released, the surrounding space began to tremble. The furnace in front of him let out a loud boom. The flames inside were like boiling magma, expanding and spreading.

With the furnace as the foundation, the formation that had protected Moon City for countless years exploded. Terrifying energy fluctuations spread and spread in all directions above Moon City. Countless buildings were destroyed by this energy.

This city was almost completely empty. Only a few older generation figures were left to guard it.

They were all outside the city. Seeing that the city was almost half destroyed, they didn't have the slightest bit of nostalgia.

Although they had lived here for a long time, this wasn't their home.

Their home was on the life star!

A Moon Race youth looked at the raging energy in the sky and the city that was being destroyed. He asked worriedly, "Lady Moon Maiden, is Lord Zi Chen in danger?"

The Moon Maiden shook her head gently and looked forward.

Today, Zi Chen was about to merge with the Universal Origin Cauldron. Once merged, it would become a Sacred Weapon that could strengthen Zi Chen's combat strength and increase the overall combat strength of the life star.

All Sacred Weapons had spirits, let alone this Sacred Weapon that had been passed down since ancient times.

Even if it hurt people, it would definitely not hurt Zi Chen, the only Heaven-Defying person on the life star!

While the city was being destroyed, a raging fire suddenly erupted from the center of the city.

It was like an erupting volcano, but it wasn't magma that was spewing out, but flames.

The raging fire instantly spread and enveloped the entire Moon City.

Amidst the flames, the entire Moon City vanished.

The flames persisted for a long time, like a sea of fire that was constantly churning.

From time to time, ancient roars of beasts could be heard coming from the depths of the flames.

In their line of sight, Moon City was no longer in sight. All that was left was the sea of fire that never extinguished.

Everyone waited outside the flames for an entire month, but Zi Chen did not appear.

During this time, the Moon Maiden was slightly worried as she walked into the sea of flames.

In the center of the sea of flames, she saw Zi Chen sitting cross-legged. In front of Zi Chen, there was an ancient cauldron that was constantly spitting out flames.

Even she felt that the high temperature in that place was very troublesome.

She did not disturb him and turned to leave.

After that, she led the others toward the Nefarious Starfield.

According to Zi Chen's instructions, if they took too long to fuse with the cauldron, they were to leave first.

If he hadn't come out by the time the space passage opened, they would let the others who wanted to return to the life star go back first.

Everyone withdrew, no longer paying attention to the situation here.

Zambu Haoming issued an order to make this place a forbidden area, forbidding everyone in this star field from entering.

After a long time, everyone knew that there was a sea of flames in this forbidden area, and they suspected that there was a great treasure in that sea of flames.

Time flew. Soon, a year had passed.

During this year, the sea of flames was still the same. Inside the sea of flames, Zi Chen remained motionless as if he was cultivating in seclusion.

However, after being burned by the fire, the energy in his body had become purer and more abundant. His body and soul were also strengthened.

The Universe Origin Cauldron was still fusing, and Zi Chen was still growing.

Year after year, several years after that, Zi Chen did not move at all.

Compared to the motionless Zi Chen, the entire Nefarious Starfield was changing rapidly.

Every day, cultivators from the life star would enter the star field that led to the Jiatu family's territory to train.

Since there were more and more cultivators and experts coming from the life star, the alien tribes living here no longer had the deep-rooted hatred. They could get along well with these people.

When the tenth year came, under Lv Peng's leadership and the cooperation of many Formation Masters, this star field was completely sealed.

As the final seal fell, the entire void began to distort. It was directly isolated and then disappeared.

At this moment, people outside couldn't see Lv Peng inside the barrier.

Moreover, this place didn't have anything strange. People could go through it.

They were in the same place, but they were in different spaces.

This place would be the foundation of Zi Chen's force.

After this place was established, Su Mengyao, Shun Tiandao, and Fortune Teller entered this space. Then, they sat cross-legged and started to comprehend the Great Path's principles.

Three years later, a beam of energy appeared on each of them. It looked like a rope that pierced the sky.

Another three years later, the space above Su Mengyao's head began to distort. A vortex appeared.

The vortex continued to expand, growing larger and larger, erupting with rumbling sounds.

After the vortex was formed, a planet appeared from the vortex. It was guided by a beam of energy and fell into this space.

"This is the real advantage of the life star. It's stealing the opportunities of the Great Path!" Xing Chen was still astounded when he saw this.

The Star Path had appeared for so many years. Almost no one had discovered this secret. However, Shun Tiandao had found it by accident.

After that, it was out of control.

The first planet that appeared would be their base in this sealed area. It would be their base camp.

After spending ten years to seal this space, it was big enough.

After the first planet was pulled out, Su Mengyao left this place and went to the next space to continue her comprehension.

The vortex that had appeared earlier was surrounded by hundreds of Heaven Realm cultivators who were still comprehending the Heavenly Dao Laws. They were slowly comprehending them.

Once they entered the Saint Realm, they could stand under that vortex and not die.

However, they couldn't do that for now.

Two years later, another vortex appeared above Shun Tiandao's head. A planet emerged from that vortex.

Half a year later, Shun Tiandao also opened a space vortex and summoned a planet.

Twenty years passed quickly. It was less than seventy years before the invasion of the Other Race Saints.

Zi Chen still hadn't made a move. The sea of fire was still there.

The entire Nefas Starfield was still operating in an orderly manner according to Zi Chen's original arrangements.

Soon, another ten years had passed. Saints who had comprehended the Great Path's principles began to show up. They continued to comprehend the principles in that mysterious space so that they could steal more planets.

Now, there were seven space vortexes in that space. There were fifteen Saints who could comprehend the principles in those vortexes.

After another ten years, the number of Saints had increased to forty, and the number of Spatial Whirlpools had increased to ten.

After that, the space vortexes stopped increasing. Many cultivators who had broken through started to steal more planets in the process of comprehending the principles.

Over the past few decades, the number of Saint Crystals he had obtained was extremely high.

During this time, the Demon Ape took these Saint Crystals and the Saint Force crystals it had obtained from the other star fields and returned to the Martial Heaven Continent to deliver resources to Zi Chen's avatar.

When the fifth decade came, dozens of Sacred Level Array Masters finally connected the Teleport Formation to the outer area of the life star.

Because of the protection of the life star's principles, the other Saints could only stop there. The next transportation formation to the Tianwu Continent would be completed by Lv Peng and other Array Masters from the life star.

Although the next step was to wrap up, it was relatively time-consuming.

…

…

In the sea of fire that had existed for dozens of years, there was a sudden tremor.

The flames that had burned all year long disappeared. A quaint cauldron appeared in the deepest part of the flames.

Zi Chen, who was sitting cross-legged in front of the cauldron, opened his eyes for the first time and looked at the cauldron that had completely merged.

At this moment, the cauldron looked simple and unadorned. It was extraordinary.

Zi Chen, who was closely connected with the cauldron through his spiritual senses, could truly sense the extraordinariness of this cauldron.

Everything in the universe was inside the cauldron.

Rather than calling it a cauldron, it would be better to call it a world that contained everything in the universe.

It was also a Saint Weapon, a very ancient Saint Weapon.

Just as Zi Chen opened his eyes, a bright radiance erupted from the cauldron. A vast aura erupted and Saint Might surged between heaven and earth. A middle-aged man was standing on top of the cauldron.

His appearance was very similar to the Cauldron Spirit. It was the middle-aged Cauldron Spirit.

"Greetings, senior!"

Zi Chen stood up and bowed respectfully to the middle-aged man, even though the cauldron belonged to him.

"It has finally merged. Although I can't unleash its full power for the time being, it can still be used as a Saint Weapon.

I have taught you the method to control it. Zi Chen, you will be in charge of controlling it. I still need to sleep and merge with it! "Cauldron Spirit said to Zi Chen.

"Many thanks, senior!"

Zi Chen expressed his gratitude and bowed again. Cauldron Spirit above him disappeared.

With one thought, the Universal Origin Cauldron began to shrink. The method to control it had not changed.

With the Universal Origin Cauldron in his possession, it was equivalent to having a powerful Saint Weapon to protect himself. It was time for Zi Chen to carry out the matter that he had been pondering over.

"The Hort Family, huh?

I hope you won't disappoint me! "

After putting away the Universal Origin Cauldron, Zi Chen turned and left for the City of Sin.

Previously, when he searched Hort's soul, he found a set of coordinates. Those coordinates were very likely to lead him back to the Hort Family.

The Hort Family had been in seclusion for a very long time. He believed that there must be a lot of resources in the starfield they were in.

For the sake of these resources, Zi Chen decided to give it his all.

After returning to the Star of Sin, Zi Chen summoned everyone.

PS: I have received everyone's blessings. Thank you very much.

In the new year, I wish everyone a happy and harmonious family.
