Although Zhang Kui was a bit muddled in his studies in his previous life, during that era of information explosion, he could still shallowly understand a thing or two. In this life, after cultivation, his Divine Soul became clear, and the memories of the two lives had long merged into one.

The so-called "one skill mastered, all skills mastered," as he saw it, whether it was the technology of his previous life or the cultivation of this life, both were paths of seeking truth about the world and all things. Although the world's laws differ, there are commonalities.

Under his influence, the ideology of the Profound Pavilion was also highly advanced, naturally making changes to the Stargazing Disc to judge the strengths and weaknesses of the enemy based on various signs.

And at this moment on the Star Map, the striking black and red light hinted at the powerful enemy forces, even under the interference of Domain Power, only a red tide-like image was visible, unable to distinguish the number of enemies.

This image was also relayed, transmitted back to the rear on various starships, making many people's expressions become solemn.

"Should we change our strategy?"

The Dragon Demon Wu Tianya asked with a gloomy face.

It was his first time campaigning with the Divine Dynasty's army, but he didn't expect to encounter such a level of enemy, inevitably feeling a bit apprehensive.

Aboard the Dragon-Body Centipede flagship, Helian Wei looked at the Star Map's ever-spreading striking red tide, her eyes gradually becoming sharp:

"No need to overcomplicate things; use the unchanging to respond to changes. All Immortal Venerables please return and enter the Grand Array to meet the enemy!"

The Dragon Demon Wu Tianya was not angry; instead, he quite admired Helian Wei and immediately turned the starship towards the direction of the Star Tomb.

What he didn't know was that Helian Wei turned and cupped her hands to the Tai Shi Golden Body floating nearby: "Taishi True God, this is our Divine Dynasty's first battle, we must win. Please use the Divine Artifact to bolster the array!"

Taishi nodded, waved his hand, and saw at the other end of the Immortal Gate outside the Celestial Essence Star Realm, the massive Star Shining Thunderfire Shuttle slowly rotating, the terrifying thunderfire in front shining, establishing a connection through the Divine Path network with the Immortal Gate...

Soon, ten Cave Heaven Divine Crystal Immortal Ships returned from all directions, and as they entered the range of the Array of Yin and Yang Dust, they immediately faded and disappeared...

...

Giant Star Tomb.

Here, there was no atmosphere, no wind, the strong gravity made the ground compacted, appearing as a vast Gobi, filled with loneliness and darkness, with fissures thousands of miles long like ghosts opening their Nine Netherworld mouths.

Crack!

Zhang Kui stepped on the ground, and due to gravity, his heavy body caused a crack beneath his foot, the compacted ground making a sound like breaking glass.

With the current strength of his body and Domain, he could approach even the surface of the Sun Star without fear of these extreme environments.

Suddenly, Zhang Kui slowly raised his head to look at the starry sky.

There it was pitch black, but under the rotation of the Tai Chi Light Wheel in his eyes, he could see the space layer upon layer of splendid beauty, with countless starlight within.

Was the enemy strong?

Zhang Kui shook his head slightly, not paying any attention.

He was almost like a caretaker developing the Kaiyuan Divine Dynasty to this point. All conditions were ripe, and it was time to let go, just as only through the tempering of blood and fire could the world's Divine Materials become a Divine Artifact that suppresses the heavens.

Very cruel, yet also very necessary, because in this chaotic and dark starry sky, one must desperately move forward, just doing what needed to be done.

Thinking of this, Zhang Kui bent his knees forward.

Boom!

The ground exploded, sharp as knife compacted fragments scattered, a large crack appearing where he stood, while Zhang Kui had already jumped hundreds of meters high.

The gravity was too strong, making it impossible for the Flying Sword Skill or Domain Power to allow flight. He could only operate the Immortal Skill Soaring Clouds and Mist Technique, jumping on the vast star surface like a beast.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The ground kept shaking, each time like a meteor falling, and each leap spanning dozens of miles.

Soon, a huge gorge appeared in front of him.

Dark and deep, surrounded by cliffs like spikes, everywhere shimmering with cold edges like blade-like hell, and under Zhang Kui's Tongyou Skill, he immediately saw the bottom half of a Cave Heaven Divine Crystal Immortal Ship, not smaller in size than that of the Fallen Immortal Mountain.

This star had a massive size and terrifying gravity, so Zhang Kui naturally had targeted the landing spot from the beginning.

Without any hesitation, he immediately leapt in.

In the darkness, the eyes were full of stern stone spikes like forests, Zhang Kui's face remained calm, purple Sword Light flickered in front of him, accompanied by crackling sounds as stone pillars shattered one by one, soon sliding to the bottom of the valley.

A mountain-like Cave Heaven Divine Crystal Immortal Ship appeared before him.

Zhang Kui squinted his eyes and scanned, then slightly shook his head.

This one was clearly not the Formless Celestial Immortal Ship, although all the Immortal Arrays had dissipated, he could discern it was a ship under the Silent Heaven Longevity Immortal Monarch.

Very simply, the ground color around the Immortal Ship was completely different from the surroundings, as if it belonged to a different era, showing the influence of the Silent Heaven Time Domain.

The Twelve Immortal Monarchs of the Ancient Infinite Immortal Dynasty each controlled a Heavenly Path Rule, and he now knew that the Silent Heaven Longevity Immortal Monarch was Time, the Colorless Celestial Immortal King Qianwu was a certain Light, the Formless Celestial Immortal King Baili was Space, the No-shine Celestial Immortal Monarch Duanyou was Black Hole, and the Wumiao Heaven Chi Bai Luo Immortal Monarch was Thunder.

These individuals who could become Immortal Monarchs naturally refined strong rules.

Zhang Kui's Divine Thought swept over, already discovering the completely obliterated Longevity Immortal Banner. However, apart from the Cave Heaven Divine Crystal, this Immortal Ship had something else that intrigued him.

Boom!

The entire Immortal Ship trembled slightly, as Zhang Kui had already leapt into one of the grand halls of the Boat Pavilion Immortal Mountain, glancing left and right with a smile at the corner of his mouth.

On both sides were layered shelves of crystal stones with Ink Jade Crystal Plates placed atop them for recording information.

To him, these were treasures far more precious than Divine Materials.

However, when he picked up a piece and read it with his Divine Thought, Zhang Kui's expression changed suddenly, tossing it aside to grab another.

After flipping through dozens, Zhang Kui's face turned livid; perhaps due to the ancient gravity of the Star Tomb, all the information inside had been erased.

At this moment, his eyes shifted slightly, turning slowly towards the ground on the other side, where a scroll of silk lay quietly, old yet seemingly new.

Zhang Kui sneered coldly, "Come out!"

...

At this time, the starry sky near the Star Tomb.

Buzz!

A gigantic passage to the Underworld suddenly opened, followed by a surging blood-colored ocean pouring out, soon spreading across the entire starry sky.

Massive centipede blood beasts, shaped like mountains, emitted terrifying fluctuations as they scattered to search, filled with murderous intent. Meanwhile, the Blood Massacre within the Sea of Blood also released its domain, like a blood-colored sun appearing out of nowhere in the void.

"High Priest, there's nothing to be found."

Atop the Slaughter Tower, a Blood Robe Priest, staring at the Star Map, said in a deep voice, "Nothing was left behind, and the blood beasts didn't detect anything unusual; the target should have fled long ago."

Although he appeared respectful, he secretly harbored discontent.

Everyone knew of the Blood God Sect's fearsome reputation, only a fool would stay behind, but here they were, like true fools, chasing after them from thousands of miles away.

"Silence!"

The High Priest shouted sharply, the Qi Mechanism deep and resonant, then looked at the surrounding starry sky, eyes filled with endless suspicion and vigilance.

"Something's not right, something is amiss here!"

The other priests looked around first, then exchanged glances.

A Blood Robe Priest lowered his head respectfully, "High Priest, the Blood Massacre did not…"

Boom!

Before he could finish his sentence, a tremendous shock erupted around them, and the originally pitch-black void suddenly burst into a dazzling starry sky.

"Not good, it's an ambush!"

The Two Elements Dust Array transmitted by Zhang Kui was not the one from the legendary Shu Mountain, consisting of the Six Gates of Life, Death, Obscurity, Clarity, Illusion, and Destruction. Instead, it was the Two Elements generating the Four Symbols, divided into the Sun, Taiyin, Lesser Yin, and Lesser Yang as the core points of the formation, creating and transforming all things, existing between reality and illusion, tangible and intangible.

In other words, the Dust is the world itself; this space had long been under the control of the grand array, shifting in size at will, with various seemingly real yet illusory realms, allowing it to portray a starry sky never before seen in the Desolate Ancient Battlefield.

This mystical array is from a different system, never before seen in this world, making it easy for the Blood God Sect to fall into the trap.

"It's an array, an extremely powerful starry grand array."

The Blood Robe High Priest's voice was sinister, "Dispatch the blood beasts to break the formation!"

With one command, a dozen mountain-like centipede blood beasts let out a piercing, earth-shattering scream, the horrific blood-colored domain spreading as they flew in all directions.

To establish oneself in this Chaotic Starry Sky, nearly every Starry Sky Evil God had unique abilities.

Like the Red Pigeon Star God, who hatched Divine Sons scattered across the cosmos, controlling Evil God Crystal Halls like small Grotto Heavens, while the Dark God multiplied into countless clones, spreading like a plague.

But the Blood God manipulated and toyed with the power of flesh, not only transforming into the Blood Massacre, but believers devoured the power of others' flesh and blood, and these star beast carcasses turned into mutated blood beasts, excelled at breaking arrays, breaking illusions, locating enemies, and blocking Starships.

Meanwhile, on the Dragon-Body Centipede flagship, Helian Wei's expressionless face gave the order aloud, "Rotate the array at a distance, isolate and slaughter them!"

In the eyes of the Blood Robe Priests, their star beasts had barely left the Sea of Blood when their forms strangely faded and vanished into the starry sky.

From a more distant perspective, a magnificent spectacle could be seen:

In the dim starry sky, a grand, massive Tai Chi Diagram phantom suddenly appeared, the Divine Dynasty Starship transformed into brilliant stars slowly moving, with the Blood Sea Massacre trapped tightly at the center, while the blood beasts were separated by sudden spatial fractures.

Boom!

The Divine Dynasty Starship fired a thousand cannons at once; in the eyes of the Blood Robe Priests, the stars above suddenly shone brightly, a terrifying killing intent permeating the heavens and the earth…

Within the palace of the Immortal Ship, Zhang Kui naturally couldn't be bothered with the battle outside; he was intently staring at the roll of silk, hands forming spells, and a dark green light was shining.

He had just sensed Divine Soul fluctuations from within the silk; no matter what anomaly it was, now reduced to only a soul, it couldn't escape his Soul-Stealing Skill.

"Alas… why must you press me so hard?"

An old sigh rang out, as the silk emitted a misty glow…
