Paragon of Sin-Chapter 1181 1175:The Truth; Building A Foundation

"The King of Everlore has established his own kingdom, the Everlore Stellar Region." When those words left his lips, he stared in the direction of the endless stars. Unfortunately, the Sealed Regions were sealed, and while an infinite amount of Distance could be theoretically seen from here, all of it was mere illusions of the Endless Void Mirror. If a cultivator tried to fly across, they'll simply traverse endlessly forward at the edge of the Sealed Regions, and if they were powerful enough to sense the distortion, forcing their way through, they'll silently be swallowed by a Vanishing Point.

Not even a corpse would remain.

The Grand Cyclic Stellar Region's inhabitants largely believed that the other stars away were simply 'too far' to travel. In their beliefs, not even the fastest Voidship would be able to get to those distant stars without using 10,000 years, at least. But the fuel needed to keep it running was unrealistic, so cultivators only dreamed of what those stars held, but they accepted their situation of being here.

Not to mention, the Sealed Regions had multiple Stellar Regions, being absurdly vast, to begin with, and while the Grand Cyclic Stellar Region was the most active and prosperous Stellar Region, it wasn't the only one with life.

'Lin Ziyan's Clan was said to have left the Grand Cyclic Stellar Region long ago, including many demons and elves. Unfortunately, they either established themselves in World Realms, Secret Realms, or in a nondescript corner with an unassuming Solar Star.' Wei Wuyin thought before continuing with Wu Yu: "He's a Heavenly Alchemic Saint. At least, he was a little more than a decade ago."

"...!" Wu Yu's reaction was to be expected. He took a few heavy breaths, gazing at Wei Wuyin with several emotions raging war within his eyes. This mysterious youth of unprecedented talent was still bringing him endless surprises!

"I think it's time for me to tell you the full truth of our world," Wei Wuyin finally decided. While he had told Wu Yu plenty of important things, certain subjects had been left unanswered, and Wu Yu tactfully never asked such as the Origins of the Armored Saint. For example, the truth regarding World Between the Fold, and where he spent a year in stasis. As an Alchemic Knight, his job wasn't to add frustrations to his Alchemist's life with endless questions but to cultivate properly under their Alchemist's nurturing guidance. If anything, Wu Yu made a perfect soldier.

He was also of the belief that knowledge was heavily need-to-know, and had restricted Long Chen's knowledge of many things until he felt he was deemed ready to know. Seeing Wei Wuyin finally ready to tell him the truth, he knew that Wei Wuyin finally trusted him entirely. This was all an Alchemic Knight could want, to be wholeheartedly trusted!

"..." He didn't interrupt Wei Wuyin, opening his ears and processing every detail.

Wei Wuyin no held little back, telling Wu Yu about various truths regarding the Sealed Regions, the World Between the Fold, the Endless Voyage Realm, the Void Voyage Sect, the Battlefield, the Talisman of War, the Azure-Prime Galactic Zone, the history of the Sealed Regions, the calamity mentioned by Trueborn, the invasion of foreign entities and much more.

Wu Yu had never had such a wide-eyed expression on his face in his entire life.

After a very, very long moment, Wu Yu had to take several deep breaths before digesting everything. Then, he asked a question that was carried within his heart for the longest time. "Is this why you've changed your modus operandi? Exposing your strength? The calamity?"

Wei Wuyin silently nodded. There was no longer a time to remain low-key, just like Trueborn! "Trueborn had come out of the shadows because they needed a stronghold, not scattered Shadow Eggs, to resist the Endless Voyage Realm's cultivators."

"If they descend, the world will enter a state of absolute chaos," Wu Yu said.

"Undoubtedly," Wei Wuyin agreed.

"This sealed world will undergo heavy restructuring. Worldly Saints…" Wu Yu's voice sounded slightly dazed and at a loss. What Imperial Clan? If those cultivators descended with their strength, the Imperial Clan would collapse if they wished for it too.

"I'm not worried about that," Wei Wuyin casually dismissed Wu Yu's worries with a few words. He finally found a good location, using his Celestial Eyes to further verify all the acceptable conditions.

"I see." Wu Yu just couldn't help but be shaken by all this new information. He didn't know how he would or should react, so he was just standing there quietly amidst his turbulent emotions. "Wait," finding a distraction from his thoughts, he added: "is this All-Ending Stellar Calamity due to those foreign…I don't know what I should call them, but is it because of them?"

After a brief pause, Wei Wuyin answered: "I don't know, but it's unlikely." Given his knowledge had shifted the World's Trend to approach calamity, and it was only triggered when he learned of its existence, then it was extremely unlikely to be due to the Endless Voyage Realm's imminent descent. After all, he learned about their arrival before Trueborn's leader informed him of the All-Ending Stellar Calamity and there was no change.

"..." Wu Yu sunk into contemplative silence. Only after a long while did his eyes flash across the Dark Void, his imagination now feeling the gaps of his knowledge, forming a large, expansive net that represented the Sealing Array. Then, his eyes lit with shocking brilliance, and even his expression distorted with a tinge of fear.

Wei Wuyin noticed the mental fluctuations, and he sighed in his heart. Wu Yu's intelligence was not low, and his ability to process information and come to conclusions was a sign of his absurdly high comprehensive talent, so it made sense that he discovered the same possibility as him.

Wu Yu's eyes darted to Wei Wuyin as if seeking confirmation of his extreme theory yet one of the only logical conclusions, and he received a subtle nod.

"Haaa…" Wu Yu exhaled heavily, his hands trembling and his pupils shaking. "Is there any way to stop it from happening?" The quivering panic had settled in his heart, especially after learning about the truth regarding the Heavenly Treasure, the Endless Void Mirror, and the cultivation bases of those who likely installed the Sealing Array eighty thousand years ago. If this calamity was what he thought, wouldn't this be a catastrophe of astronomical proportions?

Wei Wuyin gave Wu Yu a sidelong glance, "What if I have no intentions of stopping it?"

"...!" Wu Yu started; Wei Wuyin hadn't said he couldn't stop it, but that he had no intentions of doing so! If it was anyone else who said this, Wu Yu would've called them mad, insane to the limits, and reckless without care for life or death, but since it came from Wei Wuyin, the confidence that was deeply instilled in his heart was triggered, and he calmed down.

"Well, this'll be an interesting century then. Haha," Wu Yu no longer felt that world-sinking fear in his heart. It was an inexplicable occurrence, but he felt only thrilled for the future now.

"Indeed," Wei Wuyin nodded while agreeing wholeheartedly. "This is why I've decided to begin everything here far ahead of my intended schedule."

The surveying had been completed, and Wei Wuyin had found the centralized location of the Heptasage Pillar Stellar Region, the location where the Stellar Region's birth had been initiated. With a tap, Bai Lin soared towards that area with frightening speed. Wu Yu followed along, his eyes following the pillar-like back of Wei Wuyin. The strange sensation of confidence and interest hadn't been brushed aside, and he now realized that his entire mental state was being influenced by Wei Wuyin.

Somehow, inexplicably, Wei Wuyin's mental state was infecting his own, and the way he viewed this talented youth was similar to how a true knight saw their Emperor—invincible. If the Emperor was calm, the people were at peace; if the Emperor was angry, the people were in fear; if the Emperor was terrified, the people were in despair.

And now, after learning the truth, he had regained himself with abnormal ease. This should be impossible! After all…

He just learned that the existence that was sealed eighty thousand years ago, the direct action of three Ascended Sovereigns working in tandem, was likely to be unsealed in the next century!

THE NEXT CENTURY!

Wu Yu felt that he should be feeling the urge to escape at all cost, like a rat trapped in a boiling cauldron, not feel so at ease that he was expecting to see how powerful this existence was! That it would be interesting!

Wei Wuyin didn't bother too heavily with Wu Yu's mental state and focused heavily on reaching the epicenter of the Heptasage Pillar Stellar Region's birth phenomenon. When they finally reached the edge, Wei Wuyin interacted with his Saint Ring and then waved his hand.

"Watch out," Wei Wuyin warned as a gargantuan geyser of Absolute Void Region's Chaos Mana. There was no essence or energy here, simply raw Chaos Mana. It surged outwards with the force of thunder and began to flow under Wei Wuyin's direct control. It continued to pour and swirl, spiraling beautifully around them. Wu Yu was in awe and fear, but with his Origin State Mystic Soul, he had greater confidence in facing this pure and condensed form of mana.

Soon, the Chaos Mana formed a hollow sphere around them and then began to expand with only a thin layer. It expanded for a thousand miles, then ten thousand, and then a hundred thousand miles, and stopped only at four hundred thousand miles! This was the diameter, and they were now at the center of a sphere.

If those outside were to inspect the sphere, they would find their Spiritual Sense receiving no feedback, seemingly a lifeless location. Wei Wuyin hurriedly took out a few talismans and set up a formation using the Chaos Mana as the foundation, and effectively concealed the four hundred thousand miles from the outside world.

"Incredible," Wu Yu softly exclaimed.

Wei Wuyin didn't stop here; the Nexus War Flag was taken out, and with a hand-seal, ten thousand lights shot out. The lights formed an exquisitely symmetrical formation with the Legion Commander at the lead, riding upon his Skeletal Warhorse!

Wu Yu's eyes widened considerably! He had just learned the truth about the Nexus War Flag's origins and powers, but he didn't know the fullest extent of its powers! When he saw 10,000 Earthly Saint-level auras exuding dense, unfathomable fluctuations, his heart nearly stopped in disbelief. If it wasn't for the fact that these Earthly Saints weren't 'true' cultivators, he might've received an irreparable sense of inferiority.

"...!" Legion Commander Zhan Zheng and the others, all 10,000, heavily kneeled before Wei Wuyin in unison using fixed space as the ground! The sight was grander than anything Wu Yu had ever witnessed in his lifetime, and his heartbeat and breathing were quickening!

Wei Wuyin gave a slight nod, "Starting today, we will build the Neo-Dawn Defiant Star; this'll be our greatest stronghold, and also our new home. Understood?"

"HU!" They all roared out their understanding. The waves of their roar caused Wei Wuyin's robes to flutter erratically, granting him a majestic appearance befitting a ruler.

"Defiant?" Wu Yu was stunned by the name, and the question served as a relief from his heavily impacted mind from the sight of ten thousand Earthly Saints.

Kree!

Bai Lin proudly cried, her eyes exuded exceptional joy and she had the urge to soar into this new home. This was the one thing they truly lacked for so long! It should be understood that Bai Lin's home had always been with Wei Wuyin, and they were both extremely young, so despite establishing themselves here and there, it never felt real or truly theirs. Bai Lin never had a physical location, except Wei Wuyin, that she called her home.

Wei Wuyin looked at the thin layer of Chaos Mana, the vast emptiness of the Dark Void, the debris that lingered here and there, while his eyes emitted a profoundly shocking light.

"From henceforth, this Solar Star and all it shines on shall be the foundation by which I, no, we defy! Whether they be expectations, enemies, or conventions, we'll always usher in new eras with the will to defy the past, present, and future!"
