Chapter 50: Earthlymysterious Star

In the Immortal Realm, every planet has at least one spatial teleportation array, all of which are built by various merchant guilds.
The spatial teleportation arrays in the Fire Glow Star Region were all constructed by the Fire Glow Merchant Guild.
However, these arrays generally cannot transport one far; they can only enable travel between nearby cultivation planets. Thus, if cultivators wish to go to more distant planets, relying solely on the Fire Glow Merchant Guild’s arrays not only takes a long time but also requires carrying many Origin Stones.
Therefore, in the Fire Glow Star Region, there are also some starflight artifacts, such as starships, used to transport cultivators to other planets.
Most importantly, starships only require the cultivator’s Immortal Essence to power them. Cultivators can absorb the five elements from space, refine them into their own Immortal Clouds, and sustain the starship’s flight. Moreover, starships can fly in a straight line directly toward their destination planet.
The reason using spatial teleportation arrays is time-consuming is that traveling from one planet to another involves many detours, wasting a lot of time.
Starships, on the other hand, only need the interstellar coordinates of the destination and can fly in a straight line, taking even less time than spatial teleportation arrays.
At this moment, the three thousand disciples of the Tongzhou Hall were on thirty starships, having left the territory of Zhu Yan Star and entered space. They then chose a direction and flew away swiftly like meteors.
On the leading starship, Yu Wei, Yun Zhouzi, Zhen Nantian, and Huo Zun were all present, sitting together.
“Yun Zhouzi, I never expected that your Tongzhou Hall would have someone as extraordinary as Huo Zun, who invented the array preset method,” Yu Wei said happily, looking at Huo Zun with a smile.
After discovering the secrets of the Tongzhou Hall, Yu Wei did not meet with Qiu Mo. Instead, he took the people of the Tongzhou Hall and left Zhu Yan Star, heading straight for Earthlymysterious Star. Earlier, Yun Zhouzi had introduced Huo Zun to Yu Wei on the starship.
Huo Zun sat quietly, looking at Yu Wei calmly, and simply replied, “Yu Wei, how do you plan to arrange for us in the Tongzhou Hall?”
Huh!
Upon hearing Huo Zun’s words, Yun Zhouzi and Zhen Nantian felt their bodies turn cold. They never expected that Huo Zun’s personality remained unchanged—he still addressed those with higher cultivation levels equally.

And Yun Zhouzi didn’t dare to rebuke Fire Venerable—he relied on Fire Venerable to find the ores needed to craft immortal artifacts at the Earth Soul Immortal level, those ores used to pre-record formations. As for Zhen Nantian, he dared even less to scold Fire Venerable.
Upon hearing this, Yu Wei was indeed stunned for a moment. It was the first time he had encountered someone like Fire Venerable. In the past, whenever Yu Wei went to any planet and mentioned he came from the Youhan Sect, everyone would treat him politely and go out of their way to please him. But Fire Venerable now approached him with an equal mindset, showing no particular regard for him.
However, Yu Wei wasn’t angry. He smiled and said, “Fire Venerable, let me introduce our Youhan Sect first so you can get an understanding. The Youhan Sect has six major divisions: the Sect Affairs Division, the Punishment Division, the Artifact Forging Division, the Elixir Division, the Skill Transmission Division, and the Commerce Division. Each of these six divisions occupies one of the six continents on Youxing Star. The continent where our Artifact Forging Sect is located is called Huoluan Continent, which is divided into a thousand regions, each assigned to a different branch of artifact forging. Currently, our Artifact Forging Division has 988 branches, with 12 more remaining, meaning 12 regions still have no owners. I’ve already reported this to Elder Han Lingqiu, who plans to assign your Tongzhou Hall to one of these regions as a branch of our Artifact Forging Division.”
This speech revealed a lot of information. Youxing Star had six continents, each belonging to one of the six divisions of the Youhan Sect. The Artifact Forging Division occupied Huoluan Continent, divided into a thousand regions, with each branch taking one region. Right now, the Artifact Forging Division had only 988 branches, and with Tongzhou Hall added, there would be 989 branches in total.
Although the number of artifact forging branches seemed large, considering that the Youhan Sect ruled the entire Youxing Star cluster and had less than a thousand branches yet still had to meet the needs of so many cultivators for immortal artifacts, these branches were still insufficient.
Of course, the Youhan Sect wouldn’t casually establish a new branch. Without unique artifact forging skills, the sect didn’t want to waste resources. This time, Yu Wei also recognized the special formation preset method of Tongzhou Hall, which was why he made an exception and recommended it to the elders, allowing it to become a branch of the Youhan Sect.
“An artifact forging branch…” Upon hearing this, Yun Zhouzi began to murmur excitedly, his heart filled with enthusiasm, as if dreaming of his bright future again.
A branch of the Youhan Sect’s artifact forging division would have countless resources at its disposal, and of course, generous rewards after completing tasks.
Zhen Nantian, on the other hand, kept staring at Fire Venerable.

Upon hearing Yu Wei’s words, the Fire Lord merely smiled faintly and said softly, “It seems quite good.” Yu Wei’s expression immediately darkened. Just ‘quite good’? He quickly realized that the Fire Lord viewed everything in a very ordinary light. Continuing the conversation with him would likely cause internal harm, so he shifted his focus to Yun Zhouzi instead. Seeing that Yu Wei had lost interest in him, the Fire Lord closed his eyes and resumed his cultivation.

The Starship sailed through one planet after another, past dazzling star clouds, bright and splendid planets, as well as dangerous streams of debris and cold air currents. The Fire Lord paid no attention to any of this, remaining seated in quiet cultivation.

The Starships carried by the disciples of Tongzhou Hall took ten years of spatial jumps before reaching their destination: Earthly Tranquil Star. From space, Earthly Tranquil Star appeared green and dazzling, beautiful and magnificent. Its size was comparable to that of a star, truly fitting its role as the core planet of the Earthly Tranquil Star Cluster. The entire planet had six continents in total: in the eastern hemisphere, three continents lay parallel to each other in a ‘three’ shape; in the western hemisphere, three continents stood upright in a ‘shape’ shape. The Fire Phoenix Continent, where the Alchemy Academy of theYuhan Sect was located, was at the southern end of the eastern hemisphere.

At that moment, the thirty Starships did not fly directly into Earthly Tranquil Star but stopped in space. Yu Wei had already used a communication card to inform the academy’s elder, Han Lingqiu, and was waiting for her arrival. Suddenly, two people appeared in space, as if they had jumped out of another dimension. One was young, with a resolute expression and cold eyes that scanned everyone. The other appeared middle-aged, with a pleasant smile, but his aura of immortal energy was extremely strong.

As soon as Yu Wei saw them, he rushed out of the Starship and exclaimed excitedly, “Elder, senior brother!” The middle-aged man was indeed Elder Han Lingqiu, whom Yu Wei had contacted, while the young man beside him was Shi Aofeng, a core disciple of theYuhan Sect and a close friend of Yu Wei’s.

Han Lingqiu nodded and said with a smile, “Yu Wei, you’ve had a hard time on this journey.” Shi Aofeng merely nodded without speaking, continuing to gaze at the people on the thirty Starships. Yu Wei smiled and quietly stepped behind Shi Aofeng, standing there silently.

Han Lingqiu looked at the disciples of Tongzhou Hall, then smiled and said, “Everyone, Yu Wei has already told me about your situation. Since Tongzhou Hall has its own unique method for quickly crafting immortal artifacts, you are qualified to become a branch of our Youhan Sect’s Artificer Academy. From now on, your branch will still be called Tongzhou Hall, under our Artificer Academy.”

Each branch of the Artificer Academy has its own name.

Upon hearing this, Yun Zhouzi was even happier. He had been worried that after joining Youhan Sect, Tongzhou Hall’s name would no longer be usable, and he would bear the reputation of abandoning his roots. Now, everything was perfect.

“Thank you, Elder!” Yun Zhouzi replied eagerly.

Han Lingqiu nodded and immediately threw a token with the character “You” on it toward Yun Zhouzi. “With this token, you can freely enter and leave Youxing. Now, go with Yu Wei to the Huoluan Continent, then to the twelve unassigned regions. Choose one as your own territory for Tongzhou Hall,” Han Lingqiu said with a smile.

Hearing this, Yun Zhouzi was so overjoyed he almost cried. He never expected things to go so smoothly. Initially, he had thought he would be questioned by various figures in Youhan Sect and have to prove his identity one by one. He never imagined that integrating Tongzhou Hall into Youhan Sect would be so simple.

In fact, Yun Zhouzi had no idea that after Yu Wei revealed the method of pre-setting arrays to Han Lingqiu, Han Lingqiu immediately realized its profound impact on the entire immortal realm. To prevent Tongzhou Hall from leaking this method, Han Lingqiu ordered Yu Wei to bring all the members of Tongzhou Hall and turn it into a branch of Youhan Sect, so as to monopolize this unique artificer technique.

Considering Tongzhou Hall’s future value, Han Lingqiu certainly wouldn’t subject its disciples to questioning or testing their cultivation levels like other branches integrating into Youhan Sect. If the disciples of Tongzhou Hall were really tested, at least in terms of cultivation, most of them would be eliminated.

In Youhan Sect, those whose cultivation level is not at the Six-Star Human Soul Immortal stage are not eligible to enter.

After that, Han Lingqiu and Shi Aofeng disappeared immediately. Yu Wei continued to ride the Starship, taking the disciples of Tongzhou Hall to the Huoluan Continent, where they landed in a plateau area.

The remaining twelve unclaimed areas in the Armory Academy were all highland regions. Yun Zhouzi flew over these twelve areas before finally choosing the current highland. In a vast valley surrounded by snow-capped peaks, thirty Starships landed. Yun Zhouzi was the first to fly out; once in the air, he exclaimed excitedly, “Disciples of the Tongzhou Hall, a new life has begun.” Huo Zun calmly stepped out of the Starship, scanned the surrounding area with his divine perception, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
