Chapter 1567 Chapter 1560: Report; One Last Gamble

"Your Majesty, here's the report detailing the total profits of the galactic auction. I've included every known detail regarding any traded item, material, or Cultivation Method such as valuation within the various markets across multiple galactic zones and estimated valuation. Furthermore, the origins, lineage, and quality have been listed as well."

Luo Ning handed Wei Wuyin a spatial ring with various spiritual runes inscribed on its surface.

Wei Wuyin sat comfortably on a large chair while he sipped some wine with a fruity aroma that tugged at the olfactory sense as he received the ring. "Well done," he praised. Having competent subordinates made life much easier, allowing one to focus on more important tasks.

"There is something else I must report," Luo Ning said.

"Go on," Wei Wuyin took another sip, feeling extremely refreshed. This was an ancient wine that had been brewed for longer than one hundred and fifty thousand years and was a gift from Fairy Silence. It was genuine ambrosia and a tonic for the body, mind, and life force. If it wasn't for his foundation being a little too outrageous, it would have boosted his cultivation significantly in his current realm.

"Yes," Luo Ning nodded. "The impact of adding the Neo-Dawn lineage products into the society has created a notable shift and a rather tense frenzy of panic amongst the various experts and leaders of the White Abyssal Galaxy's forces. In much the same way as the Neo-Dawn Stellar Region's inhabitants acted, they too have realized the significant implications each product has for the younger generation; additionally, the convention-breaking aspects have shattered many preconceptions of what was and wasn't possible.

"For example, the Neo-Dawn Eclipse Pill's effect of generating a Worldly Domain before the Realm World Phase was an obscure belief that few amongst the Worldly Saint or higher actually delved into amongst the White Abyssal Galaxy's society. The cost simply wasn't worth it in many eyes, and few even did so for their direct descendants or disciples.

"In fact, the culture of the White Abyssal Galaxy has relied heavily on their genetic features of Mana Control rather than advancing fundamental properties of one's cultivations, and many Abyssals beliefs within that ability suppressed other ideas such as self-sacrifice for the future generation. This has likely contributed to its stagnant state of cultivation barely supposed by the infrequent and sporadic treasures that leak from the heart of the White Abyssal Galaxy.

"That said, after the introduction of the Neo-Dawn lineage products, the shift of societal importance upon realization of the benefits of lesser cultivation investments began to wildly spread about, and relevancy began to be contested as those keen-eyed and far-sighted immediately saw the implications.

"I suspect that within a few years to decades, the society as a whole will experience a significant change more in line with Neo-Dawn Stellar Region's younger generation development culture. As you've asked, Violet Sea and Crimson Blade have taken the King of Everlore's ideas of Chosen and slowly found some talented members of the younger generation to be candidates for future leadership, further influencing this idea.

"And as requested, the term has been changed from Chosen to Dawn and Dusk; Dawn to signify Chosen in their younger years, and Dusk to refer to those who have exceeded their age and entered the realms of true experts, no longer a part of the younger generation, signifying their status as once being Dawns of an Era-the potential of a new era."

Luo Ning said with a fanatical glint in her eyes. However, she hurriedly controlled her wild and terrifying expression and lowered her head, adding: "I've deployed the lesser products of the Neo-Dawn lineage such as the Sharded God Domain Pill and the Origin-Seeking Elixir, the lesser variant of the Neo-Dawn Heavenly-Origin Pill, as you have instructed."

She paused slightly here, and then her heart began to race. By doing this, adding lesser variants of convention-shattering products into the world, all will have access to it, and this will further reinforce the standard of the Neo-Dawn Defiance Era into a galaxy.

"Violet Sea, Grey Rose, Crimson Blade, and Fairy Silence have also agreed to establish a Void Altar. But your Majesty, what...is a Void Altar?" Luo Ning asked softly, softly biting her lips with her head lowered as if afraid of being too impudent in asking.

Wei WuYin slowly stood up, wine goblet in hand, and walked toward Luo Ning whose body that was once withered and dying had been rejuvenated with new youth, power, and potential. He brought the goblet to her chest, "Have some."

"...!"

Luo Ning's head lifted as she was immediately enraptured by Wei Wuyin's silver eyes, but her heart calmed down instead of speeding up. She didn't dare to disobey, grabbing the goblet with both hands and drinking. Her entire body was immediately bombarded by a refreshed sensation that was like being wrapped by the satin sheets weaved by the heavens.

She felt her cultivation, meridians, Sea of Consciousness, and cells elevate on a fundamental level. She took several gulps as a fiery heat rose from her dantian and into her heart. She was intoxicated instantly. Wei Wuyin took the cup from her lips that was greedily pursed, and faintly smiled.

"Cultivate."

Luo Ning was in a stupor and acted instinctively. She sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate with 120% of the effort and focus as normal. Her aura began to subtly rise by the passing second. This was ambrosia that could be considered an elixir on many levels, likely on par with an ordinary low-tier Mystic-World elixir. It might not be too helpful to Ascended Saints, but to Luo Ning whose cultivation was significantly less, the benefits were incredibly good.

Wei Wuyin observed her for a few seconds and used his Alchemic Starforce to assist her in digesting all the benefits the wine had to offer. After doing so, he left her alone while deploying a protective formation and found himself on a balcony that overlooked a lively gargantuan city that had mostly humans within.

The Ninth City of Hallis, the World of Hallis.

Also known as Central Hallis.

The region where the strongest humans were born to serve their purpose of protecting the interests of others. Specifically-Abyssals.

His silvery gaze was observant and serene. "Void Altar will be how I establish my galactic presence and an extremely profitable business, Luo Ning. Moreover, the war...it'll be..."

After a long while, Wei Wuyin stretched slightly as he felt his cultivation base circulate smoothly, feeling the effects of reaching his peak state within the Mortal Realms. "How's the Astral Idol coming along?"

"Tch," King replied immediately as there was a hint of frustration in its tone.

"Big! Big! Big! Too big! Little Defiant is too big!" Ori exclaimed anxiously, at the end blaming Little Defiant.

Wei Wuyin felt Little Defiant's indignant reply as it rotated a little faster on its axis and released a few bursts of solar flares toward his dantian. Ori trembled slightly as it devoured the solar essence.

Wei Wuyin sighed. An Astral Idol was the amalgamation of a perfected cultivation base of the Mortal Realms, the representation of peak cultivation as a Mortal, yet despite reaching the peak of his physique in its astral-stage, his Astral Cores entering their peak of size and energy, with a Defiant-sized Solar Star as his World-Bound Star Domain to oversee his Mind's Eye and Sea of Consciousness, covering the intrinsic pinnacle properties of Essence, Physical, and Mental cultivation, according to Edenn they were unable to properly merge them as a single entity to finish the Spiritual aspect.

The issue wasn't just one thing, it was all those things!

Together, they were just TOO powerful!

Only after forming his Astral Idol completely could he venture forward to greater levels of cultivation. Most importantly, he could ascend!

Wei Wuyin often left their cultivation to themselves, but this time he decided to chime in as he had an idea. "Little Defiant, can you split yourself into four parts?"

"..." Little Defiant oddly enough had a very active will as if on some level was as intelligent, sentient, and sapient as his Astral Souls. It was very lively, extremely protective, and gave off the sensation of a good mother's gentleness, and a child's obedient innocence. It had a Star Soul. And that Star Soul was far more advanced and developed than any typical Star Soul.

After contemplating for a while, Little Defiant was unsure. It was quite intuitive and knew what Wei Wuyin wanted, likely more than Ori, King, and Kratos, only second to Eden, as it was within his Mind's Eye and felt every last one of his mental and soul fluctuations.

While it could create Baby Defiant, that was a little different than what Wei Wuyin wanted. Wei Wuyin thought of creating four Little Defiant like he had, emulating the Haven Heart Qi Method and creating four Spirits of Cultivations. It sent pulses indicating a: "possibly, yes."

"Are you sure?" Eden asked.

Wei Wuyin felt his heart tremble as Kratos got oddly excited. Doubtful, Wei Wuyin probed: "You already thought of it? You...no, tell me what would happen." If Eden and Kratos had thought of it, he already smelled a scheme in the midst, one that he was ignorant of. Instinctively, he felt as if they wanted to try one last act of reckless defiance toward convention and wanted to bait him into agreeing.

"..." Eden's mood soured as Kratos had exposed them. "We've thought about it and there is a way to do just that. We've conceived of a way to mimic our initial stages of the Star Core Astral Tribulation..."

Almost immediately, Wei Wuyin understood what they wanted to do! Something ridiculous! "Consequences! Be direct," Wei Wuyin strongly demanded.

"What consequences? It'll be a good thing! Roar!" Kratos hurriedly vouched for it, clearly as unreliable as can be.

"Only good things!" Ori chimed impatiently as if trying to get Wei Wuyin to believe it.

"You too?" Wei Wuyin knew a scheme was in the air. Wait...

Wei Wuyin sensed Little Defiant and felt its fluctuations, a hint of guilt suppressed by a seven-colored branch hiding within.

"Tch. Only forward," King firmly announced.

"..."

Wei Wuyin grinned with a hint of madness, "Let's do it. One last gamble as a mortal!"
