Chapter 316
In the depths of the air-raid shelter, as Gu Zhan, Gu Xue Dao and other high-level combatants of the Gu Family turned into streams of light and departed, the originally cramped underground space squeezed by terrifying pressure finally became somewhat spacious.
In the corner, Iron Slaughter still kept the posture of prostrating himself with five limbs on the ground, cold sweat soaking his back, not even having the courage to lift his head to glance at the youth on the white jade chair.
Gu Yuan sat calmly on the white jade chair, his demeanor leisurely; with a casual swipe of his storage ring, a jade slip exuding an ancient, vast aura appeared in his palm.
The surface of the jade slip flowed with extremely obscure spatial Dao rhymes; merely lying there quietly caused the surrounding void to produce a subtle distortion.
After finishing the cleanup arrangements, Gu Yuan tossed a jade slip exuding an ancient aura to Gu Xuan Ce not far away.
"Uncle Xuan Ce, this is the complete version of the 'Myriad Worlds Pulling and Displacement Method'; I recorded it myself."
Gu Yuan lifted his teacup to wet his throat, saying, "The Tian Shu Source Realm originally had the Star River Grand Array as its foundation; the earth veins have been sealed shut. See if you can combine it with the Zhou Tian Star Dipper Grand Array to overhaul this place—we'll just take the whole basin away."
Gu Xuan Ce caught the jade slip in one hand, his divine sense eagerly probing into it.
After only three breaths, the eyes of this array maniac shone like two lamps.
"Marvelous! Although this method is unorthodox, if we merely change the Star River Grand Array's reverse blood‑sucking mechanism into a forward wrapping mechanism and add the concealment of the Zhou Tian Star Dipper…"
Gu Xuan Ce muttered while pulling out an array disk from his storage ring, his hand speed leaving only an afterimage.
Another figure walked out from within the bronze gate.
Myriad Medicine Divine Lord bore the pallid, handsome face of the Twilight Immortal King, draped in tattered gold‑red battle armor, and sauntered over to Gu Xuan Ce's side.
"Elder Gu, have you run into trouble?"
Myriad Medicine Divine Lord poked his head to glance at the array‑pattern sketch Gu Xuan Ce was drafting in mid‑air.
At his peak, Myriad Medicine Divine Lord was already a Jue Dian Immortal King just half a step away from entering the titan realm.
Not only was his alchemy unsurpassed under heaven, his attainments in the art of arrays were equally profound.
He needed only a glance to see through the fatal flaw of this combined array.
"These natives' array‑laying technique is really crude."
Myriad Medicine Divine Lord shook his head and gave an extremely professional opinion,
"The array foundations they used to construct the Star River Grand Array are all mechanical alloys mixed with inferior spirit ore."
"Such scrap iron normally suffices for drawing a bit of spirit qi, but if one truly attempts to launch a world‑scale cosmic displacement, the instant the spatial walls are torn apart, these foundations cannot withstand that dimensional spatial tearing pressure and will instantly crumble to powder."
"Once the foundations are destroyed, the entire world will be shredded into fragments in the spatial turbulence."
Gu Xuan Ce scratched his bird‑nest‑like hair, agreeing deeply: "Old man, I'm troubled by this. Recasting the foundations would take too much time; the young master can't wait."
"What's so difficult about that?"
Myriad Medicine Divine Lord, eager to prove his worth before Gu Yuan, exerted himself greatly; a clump of azure‑green Immortal King elixir flame rose in his palm,
"I will use this Immortal King elixir flame to smelt the global array foundations for you, forcibly expelling the impurities in that scrap iron and infusing it with Immortal Dao principles."
"You needn't worry about anything else; just calmly inscribe the coordinate patterns for the spatial displacement."
The two array grandmasters hit it off immediately and went straight to work in the air‑raid shelter.
Myriad Medicine Divine Lord's elixir flame turned into ten‑million threads of fire, spreading along the underground pipe network to engulf the entire Eleven‑Number City and even all the Star River Grand Array nodes of the Tian Shu Source Realm.
Those crude alloy array foundations, under the tempering of the Immortal King elixir flame, swiftly transformed into immortal‑family platforms exuding Dao rhymes.
Gu Xuan Ce, meanwhile, closed his eyes and frantically flicked his ten fingers in the void, perfectly blending the Zhou Tian Star Dipper array patterns with the displacement method and imprinting them into the renewed foundations.
One was a former Jue Dian Immortal King‑level alchemy grandmaster and array expert; the other a true‑immortal‑level maniac from the Tai Gu Xian Yu who devoted his life to arrays; their cooperation was seamless.
After only three hours, the massive global pulling array had already taken initial shape.
However, Gu Xuan Ce's hand movements halted. He turned his head, looking at Gu Yuan sipping tea on the chair, his face showing difficulty.
"Young master, the array framework is set up, but there's a fatal problem." Gu Xuan Ce rubbed his hands, "There isn't enough energy."
Gu Yuan set down his teacup and lifted his gaze to him.
"The Star River Grand Array has drawn spirit qi for three thousand years; the total is indeed huge, but that's only for these native cultivators. To drive the entire world into cosmic displacement, this amount of spirit qi isn't even enough to fill a tooth gap for activating the array eye." Gu Xuan Ce spread his hands, "Even if we drained all the earth veins, we'd still fall far short."
Myriad Medicine Divine Lord nodded in agreement beside him: "Elder Gu is absolutely right; we must wait for the forefather to return and exert his power, providing Immortal King‑level strength. Otherwise this array is just an empty shell."
Gu Yuan said nothing.
He knew Gu Xuan Ce and Myriad Medicine Divine Lord were not lying.
Relocating a great world inherently requires an astronomical amount of energy.
Previously, when relocating Sanqian Zhou, what was poured in was half the life of the Zhenyuan Immortal King.
The Tian Shu Source Realm is far larger than the Profound Heaven Continent; expecting the Gu Family true immortals to emulate the forefather's earlier relocation of the Profound Heaven Continent is difficult.
Gu Yuan was not panicked. He rose to his feet and walked to the open space at the center of the air‑raid shelter.
"No need for grandfather to intervene."
Gu Yuan's heart stirred slightly as he communicated with the Myriad Realms Vacation System in his sea of consciousness.
"Claim mission reward: ten strands of ten‑million‑year‑old supreme spirit veins."
As his words fell, the space inside the air‑raid shelter underwent violent distortion.
Ten strands of spirit‑qi ore, substantial as true dragons, were forcibly compressed by Gu Yuan using the law of his inner world into ten radiant crystals, which hovered in mid‑air.
The moment these ten crystals appeared, the lingering heavenly Dao laws of the Tian Shu Source Realm emitted a joyful hum. This was supreme energy surpassing the realm's cognitive limits—pure, vast, and endless.
Gu Xuan Ce and Myriad Medicine Divine Lord stared at those ten crystals, their eyes nearly popping out.
"Such… such high‑grade spirit veins—even the top orthodoxies of the Tai Gu Xian Yu could scarcely produce a few of them!" Myriad Medicine Divine Lord swallowed saliva.
Gu Yuan casually flicked the ten crystals toward Gu Xuan Ce.
"Smash them into the array eye—is that enough now?"
Gu Xuan Ce caught the crystals in one hand, grinning so wide he could hardly close his mouth.
"Enough! More than enough! Even a tenth of it would go unused!"
That's right.
Perhaps none of them is stronger than the forefather was at his true‑immortal peak.
But now, the Tai Gu Xian Yu… the number of true immortals is so great it could be called history‑making.
Moreover, there is also the existence of Wan Yao Shenjun, who can temporarily unleash the power of an Immortal King.
At this moment, only part of the energy is enough to operate the Great Array!
