Wang Baole narrowed his eyes as he looked at the ordinary-looking young cultivator respectfully handing over the drumstick to the Clang Bell Lady. A dark light flashed in the depths of his eyes.
At that moment, a memory of the past appeared in his mind, as well as … a person in that memory!
"Star-Seeding Dao?" Wang Baole muttered in his heart. He suddenly realized where the sense of familiarity came from. If he thought about it carefully, the Clang Bell Lady in front of him was very similar to the Moon Night Monarch's wife in the Vast Expanse Dao Palace.
However, there were more differences. The former's traces were too obvious, while the Moon Night Monarch's wife's Star-Seeding Dao was almost invisible and could replace heaven's will!
As Wang Baole watched, the drumsticks in the hands of the ten of them emitted a bright light, and the power of teleportation was activated. This meant that the trial was over, and it also meant that the ten of them had obtained the true qualifications for the final creation!
How far they could go in the end and what kind of planet they could obtain would depend on their own fated opportunities.
As for the others, although they did not succeed in obtaining the drumsticks, they also understood that the creation of the Graveyard of Stars was not that easy to obtain. This time, they came to fight for it. Even if they failed, after returning to their respective sects and families, they would still be able to obtain at least one immortal planet as the foundation of a planet.
Just like that, while everyone was having their own thoughts, the light of teleportation shone brightly and enveloped the entire world. As the rumbling sound reverberated, all the figures in this place gradually became blurry and disappeared.
In the next moment, when everyone's eyes became clear again, they had already left the trial and appeared in the hall that the Star Fall Empire had arranged for them. In fact … everyone was actually in their own rooms.
It was just like more than ten days ago when they were waiting for the first stage of the trial in their respective rooms. It was as if nothing had changed, as if everything that had happened was just a dream.
Wang Baole was also stunned. He looked at the drumstick in his hand and quickly looked at the familiar room around him. Then, he lowered his head and looked at his storage bag. When he saw that the red crystals in it had not decreased, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.
At the same time, the paper man's voice that appeared before every trial echoed in everyone's mind at this moment.
"Congratulations to the ten little friends from the outer realms who have obtained the Star-guiding Drum Mallet. You have seven days to prepare. In seven days, the Starfall Empire will hold the Grand Sacrificial Ceremony. At that time, it will be the time for you to strike the Heaven-reaching Drum and summon the stars!"
A glint flashed across Wang Baole's eyes. When he heard this, his heart was in turmoil. He knew very well that if everything went well in seven days, he would definitely be able to break through to the Planet Grade!
"What level will my planet be …" Wang Baole's heart was filled with anticipation. The goal he had set for himself had to be at least an immortal planet. It would be best if it was a special planet!
"I have to give it my all!" Wang Baole took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and began to meditate.
According to his plan, he did not intend to go out for the next seven days. During these seven days, he wanted to be in the most perfect and peak state to face this planetary opportunity.
At the same time, outside the Graveyard of Stars, in the endless starry sky of the Never-Ending Sacred Territory, a huge star made of steel was emitting an astonishing pressure as it whizzed through the starry sky.
A large number of cultivators could be seen on this steel star. They were busy, and from time to time, the roars of wild beasts could be heard coming from this star. From afar, this steel star even looked more like a huge furnace.
The cultivators were like engineers. While they maintained the operation of the steel planet, they also made the rumbling sounds and the roars of the wild beasts continue coming from it.
Along the way, all the cultivators passing by in the starry sky, regardless of their cultivation base, lowered their heads when they saw this steel star, regardless of whether they were Eternal Star Almighties or not.
This was all because this steel star … was a special vehicle that only the direct descendants of the Xie Family, who were at least at the Eternal Star Grade, could obtain!
As a business family, the Xie Family not only had influence everywhere, but they also had their own system. They could produce and sell their own products while purchasing from external sources. To a certain extent, this steel star could be seen as a huge factory. Dharma treasures were being manufactured from it at all times.
At that moment, inside this steel star, a sloppily dressed middle-aged man with disheveled hair was holding a jade slip and yelling continuously.
"Furnace No.3, did you guys not eat? Turn it on at full power!
"Smelting Pool No.9, you, you, you … You are all trash! Turn it off!
"And the quantity of Golden Rock. I already told you guys to store up enough. Trash, trash, trash!"
The middle-aged man's eyes were bloodshot, and he seemed to have forgotten himself as he gave out orders, causing the entire steel planet to operate in the way he wanted it to. It rumbled nonstop.
In front of him was a young man sitting limply. He looked at the middle-aged man helplessly and tried to speak several times, but the middle-aged man ignored him.
In the end, the veins on the young man's forehead bulged as if he had endured to the limit. He suddenly jumped up and rushed to the middle-aged man's side. He snatched the jade slip from the middle-aged man's hand and threw it on the ground, roaring loudly.
"Old Xie! Ancestor! Uncle! Can't you listen to me?! "
"Little brat, I'm your father, not your uncle. Why are you calling me uncle?" The middle-aged man glared at the young man.
"If you listen to me, I'll even call you big brother …" The young man sighed and quickly said when he saw the unfriendly look in the middle-aged man's eyes.
"Father, Chen Qing is about to break free. Why aren't you worried? Given Chen Qing's unreasonable temper, he'll definitely come looking for you when he's free. Laozu won't get into a conflict with Chen Qing because of you …"
"You're still thinking about refining at a time like this?!"
The young man was none other than Xie Haiyang, and the middle-aged man was his father.
The middle-aged man raised an eyebrow at Xie Haiyang's anxious words.
"What's the point of being scared? Besides, aren't you the one who's worried? That's enough. Your father's life is in your hands anyway. If you can resolve it, then go ahead. If you can't, then so be it! " With that, the middle-aged man grabbed the jade slip that Xie Haiyang had thrown to the ground. He was about to give more orders when Xie Haiyang grew anxious again.
"Old Xie! You're my father, not me! Y-y-you … why do you always rely on me? We're going against each other! "
"What else can I do? If you can't resolve it, then leave. You're an eyesore here. I've been thinking about how much better it would have been if your mother hadn't taken advantage of me when I was exhausted from refining. "The middle-aged man glared at Xie Haiyang impatiently.
"Y-y-you …" When Xie Haiyang heard this, he was so angry that he almost coughed up a mouthful of blood. He flicked his sleeves, turned around, and left.
The middle-aged man looked at Xie Haiyang's back, and a hint of gentleness appeared in his eyes. He sighed softly in his heart, but before he could hide the gentleness in his eyes, Xie Haiyang suddenly turned his head, and the father and son could not help but look at each other.
"Old Xie, take care!"
"Hurry up and get lost!"
Xie Haiyang took a deep breath. This time, he did not look back. After he left the core control room of the steel planet, a look of determination appeared in his eyes. He took out a sound transmission jade slip, adjusted his mood, and tried to speak a few more times. He adjusted his voice so that it was anxious, but not lacking in calmness, determination, and persistence. Then, he sent the message.
"Senior Inferno … Junior Xie Haiyang, are you there?"
"Um … I'm sorry to disturb you, but have you considered my request?"
"Senior, just tell me what you need. As long as it's within my power, I'll do my best!"
With that, Xie Haiyang held the jade slip in his hand and waited nervously for the time it takes an incense stick to burn. Just as his nervousness grew, and he was about to stop himself from interrupting and asking more questions, Inferno Laozu's lazy voice suddenly rang out from the jade slip.
"Little Xie, this old man wants to help, but there's nothing I can do. You know that Chen Qing isn't a reasonable person."
When Xie Haiyang heard this, he seemed to have lost all his strength. His eyes dimmed. The Raging Flame Patriarch was the only person he could think of who could talk to Chen Qing, but his reply made his heart feel empty all of a sudden. While he was at a loss, the Raging Flame Patriarch's voice rang out from the jade slip again.
"However …."
