genuine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He directly used his hands, his body, his five senses to feel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First in his hand was a bronze-colored fragment, seemingly a shard no larger than a palm, broken off from some artifact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Made of special stone, carved with unique bronze-colored patterns, its style utterly unlike that of the human race, and different even from the peak races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one knew which race it came from—not even Star Spirit’s vast data contained any information about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless someone who understood it could explain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, no one might ever know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt it didn’t seem particularly special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It truly appeared to be just an ordinary shard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hummm!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He channeled his Purple-Gold Gang Jin, letting it flow like water into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, the once-ordinary bronze fragment began to tremble rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Crack!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, the bronze fragment shattered again in his hand, breaking into even smaller pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi stared at the fragments and shook his head—he clearly realized the bronze shard had shattered under the force of his Gang Jin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This proved it had nothing special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then examined each fragment one by one, injecting his Gang Jin into them, even dripping blood or merging his spiritual force into them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several days passed in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After inspecting all the miscellaneous items and fragments, only five black fragments remained before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their surfaces were rough, like five unremarkable stone shards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were made of identical material, indicating they came from the same civilization, perhaps even the same object.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi’s mind rapidly recalled—he finally realized these five fragments had been found on five different geniuses from five distinct races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One came from the Source Core world of the Celestial God race’s Xuan Ge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another from the demon race genius Kun Wu, and yet another from the insect race genius Isabella’s Source Core world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He arranged the five fragments according to their broken edges and fitted them together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, he saw they were fragments of a black stele.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the reason he had singled them out\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was because the other fragments had yielded little of value.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some fragments he successfully activated—they were inheritance items containing hidden information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some recorded their race’s history; others contained cultivation secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet those secrets, though exquisitely refined for ordinary cultivators, were crude compared to the supreme inheritances he already practiced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had just broken through to the Meridian Awakening realm, these secrets would have been priceless, capable of lifting Blue Star to greatness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now they were useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, he could sell them to the Primordial Holy Land for cultivation points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also held a map, recorded on a parchment-like object.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The map’s endpoint seemed to lie in some remote corner of the universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He might need to travel to the location marked on the map to obtain its item.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The map was extraordinarily vast and boundless—he had no idea where it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt as if it lay beyond human territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he left human territory, his talent and strength would make it extremely dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could wait until he broke through the Five Cosmic Realms before seeking it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, there were the five stele fragments before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi could feel these fragments were extraordinarily hard—he had stabbed them with the Golden Thunder Spear and left no mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even top-tier metals could achieve that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To shatter such a stele, he guessed, would require at least the destructive power of a Cosmic Sixth Realm Sovereign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hummm!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He released his Purple-Gold Gang Jin into the stele fragments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fragments began absorbing his energy, their surfaces glowing with peculiar secret patterns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secret patterns in the world were infinite, with countless combinations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They appeared in dazzling light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the dazzling light lasted only a moment before vanishing completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi frowned—what was going on?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He continued pouring his Gang Jin into them, yet the stele fragments remained unresponsive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, he seemed to grasp something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt as if his energy level was insufficient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Higher-grade energy was needed to activate what lay within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only higher-grade energy was the Cosmic Force he would forge after breaking through the Five Cosmic Realms, when his Gang Jin transformed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He guessed this would unlock the stele.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there were only five fragments—not enough for a complete whole, perhaps only a quarter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless he gathered all the fragments, he felt this would have no effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, he stored them all in his Source Core world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he summoned Star Spirit and informed it of the contents within the fragments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden-robed Star Spirit spoke:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Qi, the cultivation secrets and historical records you provided are worth 35.8 million cultivation points.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They have been transferred to your account.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi looked at the cultivation points credited to him—he felt earning them was becoming easier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, he gained vast amounts without even realizing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I owe much to Sovereign Cangming—if not for his reminder,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I wouldn’t have paid much attention to these fragments.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Much less found these useful items.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi held great fondness for Sovereign Cangming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the second Sovereign willing to meet him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first was Sovereign Tianyuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sensed the latter also wanted to take him as a disciple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for other Cosmic Sixth Realm Sovereigns, they all sent representatives of the Cosmic Fifth Realm to deal with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In attitude, they fell short of Sovereign Cangming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Cosmic Sixth Realm Sovereigns, what they could guide him in might only be spatial law insights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But any Sovereign could offer such guidance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it was better to choose the strongest—the Supreme Being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if he failed the Supreme Being’s trial,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he might choose Sovereign Cangming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After brief thought, Lin Qi returned to his cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, he would meet the representatives of the Cosmic Sixth Realm Sovereigns, then wait quietly for the Supreme Being’s representative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the exact timing was uncertain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nor would other Sovereigns know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because summonses were conducted in secret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one knew when they might be summoned by the Supreme Being’s representative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several days later, in the Core Zone, the Yanyuan Court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the grand metal door numbered 10, Lin Qi, clad in a black robe, entered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He entered with a dozen others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the mist, the fluctuations of spatial law grew stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they reached the platform, they found fifteen others already observing the Void Cube.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi felt the thirty slots were insufficient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each time, many beings exchanged for long-term viewing time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suspected that in the future, observing the Void Cube might require queuing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that was a matter for later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, he should focus on comprehending spatial law.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he ascended to the second-tier platform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Find a spot, sit cross-legged, and swallow the Ice-Heart Elixir in one go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, he entered a state of deep insight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, on the second-level platform, observing the Chaos Artifact—the Void Cube—he felt even clearer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secret runes of the tearing truth also rapidly surfaced in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With each breath, his mind spun faster, and countless insights arose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, he seemed to see space ripped apart, as if someone were practicing spear techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every movement, every posture, stirred changes in space itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was also practicing the Great Cosmos Rending Spear Scripture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi felt that observing the Chaos Artifact still yielded the fastest progress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt like food was placed before him—he only needed to eat it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just a short while, he gained countless insights into the tearing truth of the space law.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He no longer sensed the passage of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【You observed the Chaos Artifact—Void Cube—and comprehended its tearing truth, gaining insight into the seventh mystery.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【You observed the Chaos Artifact—Void Cube—and your understanding of the space law increased by 1.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Your understanding of the space law increased by 1.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi felt his comprehension of the space law had greatly improved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had now comprehended all the subtleties of the tearing truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout the process, there was almost no bottleneck—it was like walking down a highway, simply moving forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no obstruction whatsoever.\u003C\u002Fp>",1356,"2026-06-20T20:27:49.107Z",1,"Qwen3-Next
