From this day on, the Ten-Thousand Soul Banner learned a new technique called "Physical Redemption."
When the power of mysticism fails to solve a problem, always trust in physics!
Even the occult has its scientific side.
Qingtai and Canxing had been sealed for so long that the Ten-Thousand Soul Banner's repeated attempts to refine them had already drained much of their soul power.
Now, on top of that, you had given them a thorough beating.
Plus, you could temporarily be regarded as a War God, and by using the War God's cultivation to drive the Ten-Thousand Soul Banner, its effect naturally became stronger.
"We pledge allegiance to our lord!"
After being redeemed, Qingtai and Canxing knelt before you on the spot.
Hu Tiangong, who was busy summoning countless demonic beasts to gather, was stunned.
Even an Earth Venerate could be turned?
A Dragonman Celestial Venerate—you could be that and more!
You took two Dragonman corpses out of the Cauldron Realm.
These were two Dragon Saint corpses you had carefully selected during your battle with the Dragonman army.
The prerequisite for Dragonmen to freely exchange bodies with their kind is that the other person's body must still be alive.
Corpses won't work.
But you had soaked these bodies in Star Source.
According to Old Shen's theoretical research, this method was feasible.
When Canxing and Qingtai tried it, their souls were indeed able to take residence!
Now, as long as these two used the Super Soul Battle Method to enter the Dragon God state, they could serve as the formation's eyes.
But not here.
The Seven Luminaries refer to the sun, moon, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth of heaven and earth.
Each of the seven formation eyes connects to one luminary, granting the formation's master the power to draw upon the world's primal force!
Simply put, once the formation is complete, the formation's master becomes that very world!
Consider the world as a computer; the Seven-Luminaries Immortal Formation is the peripherals (keyboard, mouse, speakers, microphones—all external devices).
With peripherals, you can operate that computer, instead of just staring helplessly at the world's power.
The seven individuals serving as the formation eyes must stay in specific positions.
Where exactly?
You don't know.
Who does know?
Old Ancestor Shen knows.
He had studied the principles for thirty thousand years, but he wasn't just shutting himself in—he also wandered the world, seeking inspiration and ancient lost texts.
In that process, he discovered seven unique places in the world where cultivators could more easily access the attributes of the Seven Luminaries.
Remember how we mentioned that the "three energies" before the Martial King stage—spiritual energy—and the "true energy" after the Martial King stage, both have Five Elements attributes?
Your true energy is of the Fire element.
The crystals in this world also have Five Elements attributes.
If you train at the Fire Luminary point, it becomes easier.
Old Ancestor Shen summarized the Seven Luminary points several thousand years ago. When you took Shen Qingshan to the Star Domain to find him and presented the Seven-Luminaries Immortal Formation, he told you where the Seven Luminary points were.
Wuxiang began his destruction from Xiliang, and floods ravaged the land.
A strange bloody mist emanated from Wuxiang, endless and boundless, shrouding the earth.
The land was plunged into a bloody gloom. Sunlight couldn't penetrate, and the essence of heaven and earth was decaying.
All living beings wailed in despair.
The apocalypse had arrived!
While waiting for the Seven Luminaries to take their positions, you worked tirelessly to save people in the hardest-hit areas.
Every life saved was one life spared.
You witnessed the sense of duty among the martial artists.
Some resisted the floods, some dispelled the blood mist, and others fell beneath Wuxiang's unmatched power.
The Human Realm Allied Forces had just ended their war with the Dragonman army, with no time to even return to their homelands for a visit, before they had to throw themselves into a new war.
Warriors were dying.
Common folk were falling in pools of blood.
Homes were submerged by the floods.
The beautiful mountains and rivers were shrouded in a hopeless crimson.
You waited, and waited...
The Sun Luminary point was in the Star Domain's Star Force Mystic Realm. Shen Qingshan had taken his position!
The Moon Luminary point was on Star Domain's Mingguang Star. The Dragon God had taken his position!
The Metal Luminary point was in the Great Wilderness's Baishi Mountain. The Great Demon had taken his position!
The Wood Luminary point was in the Nanjiang's Sacred Forest Valley. Earth Venerate Qingtai had taken his position!
The Water Luminary point was in the Chaotic Crystal Sea. Earth Venerate Canxing had taken his position!
The Fire Luminary point was at the Cangqiong Ridge. The Phoenix God had taken his position!
The Earth Luminary point was in the Great Qian Capital. Li Wentian had taken his position!
"The Seven Luminaries have taken their places! Borrow the power of heaven and earth! Activate the formation!!"
You were at the very center of the continent.
Beneath your feet lay a grand formation pattern, naturally formed along the course of mountains and rivers.
At intervals, it passed by underground crystal mineral veins.
The formation would autonomously draw the essence of heaven and earth from these veins.
The grand formation started from beneath your feet and extended in all directions, to the heavens above and the earth below.
These arrangements had been completed before the formal battle with the Dragonmen, when you, in your capacity as the Holy Son of the Sacred Ground, mobilized resources from all sides.
Today, they finally came into play.
The scale of the Seven-Luminaries Immortal Formation was even more exaggerated than the First Heaven's Span. You could say the entire Human Realm had become part of the formation!
The seven divine-level combatants stood at their positions. When the formation's power reached them, all of their strength was drained away by the grand formation in that instant.
In the Great Qian Capital.
Li Wentian gazed at Li Chengqian, who lay at his feet, a smile on his face.
"As expected of my descendant! Minister of the Imperial Clan, where are you!"
"Your servant is here!"
"Grant Li Chengqian the name—Li Chengqian!"
Then, all of Li Wentian's power transformed into a beam of brown energy, flying toward where you stood.
Li Wentian himself once more turned into a bizarre ball of flesh.
This time, the flesh ball rapidly decayed, crumbling like dead leaves.
The nearby Li royal clan and the entire civil and military court wept bitterly.
They wept once for the Ancestral Dragon, who would vanish from now on.
They wept twice for the late Emperor Li Chengqian, who had passed away.
On Baishi Mountain.
The Great Demon felt the power of the Seven-Luminaries Immortal Formation.
He knew that the strength he had painstakingly preserved would be lost.
"Dear disciple, do you have such faith in your master? Heh heh..."
The Great Demon raised his hand to resist the Seven-Luminaries Immortal Formation, refusing to provide his power.
But when the formation's power surged toward him, his hand dropped.
"Hua Wuyan!! Either keep your word and vanish forever, or break your word and be tormented by your inner demons!
Hahaha! Brilliant plan! Brilliant!! As expected of my disciple!
I hate heaven! I've cut off the other shore! Achieved in skill, yet failed in the Dao!
I hate it!!!"
The Great Demon transformed into a beam of golden energy, flying toward your direction.
In the Star Domain, in the Star Force Mystic Realm.
Old Ancestor Shen was muttering to himself.
"Shen Qingshan, from now on, everything in the Star Domain is in your hands."
"Ancestor, you..."
"Chen Yi's formation will drain all my power. While I won't be utterly annihilated, I can no longer coexist with you. Just toss my soul into this Star Force Mystic Realm and let me keep company with my rows of bookshelves."
"Ancestor!"
A brilliant red light burst forth from Shen Qingshan, dazzling as the sun, and it too flew toward your location.
The Dragon God, the Phoenix God, Qingtai, Canxing.
The seven war gods stationed at the seven luminaries points—all of their power has been drained away.
Seven beams of light, each a different color, drawn by the might of the celestial formation, converge upon you from every corner of the world.
This is not a simple matter of seven plus one. Once the power is fully gathered, you will hold dominion over this entire realm!

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!

ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
