Chapter 71 Holy Scripture Study and Alliance Preparations
Upon returning to the Alliance headquarters, Xuan Yuanche and Su Yao immediately summoned the Alliance's sages, scholars, and experts from various sects to jointly study the Holy Scripture of Light. This book, radiating dazzling light, was placed in the center of a secret room in the Alliance headquarters, surrounded by multiple defensive formations to ensure its safety.
The group sat around the sacred text. Xuan Yuanche gently turned to the first page, and an ancient and mysterious aura wafted out. The characters on the text shimmered with golden light, as if formed from the power of countless stars, but these characters were extremely obscure and difficult to understand, unlike any common language or runes in the world.
A senior scholar frowned and said, "The script of this sacred text is ancient and mysterious. I have never seen such a complex combination of characters. It seems that we will need to spend a lot of time and effort to decipher it."
Su Yao nodded in agreement: "But we are pressed for time, and the power of the Dark Star could descend at any moment. Let's try to use our spiritual power to perceive the meaning behind these words; perhaps we can find some clues."
So, the cultivators all unleashed their spiritual power, probing the characters on the sacred text with their mental energy. Xuan Yuanche closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and integrated his understanding of the Heart of Chaos, the Azure Crystal, and the power of the Star Crystal into his mental energy, slowly touching the characters on the sacred text.
Suddenly, blurry images flashed through Xuan Yuanche's mind. In these images, a great god of light stood at the center of the universe, holding a divine sword that shone with endless light, surrounded by countless stars. The god of light swung the sword, and beams of light shot into the depths of darkness, dispelling the darkness and giving birth to new worlds wherever they touched.
Xuanyuan Che's heart stirred, and he shared what he had seen with the others. The wise men listened and began to ponder the connection between these images and the sacred text. After some discussion, they speculated that the Holy Scripture of Light might be transmitting ancient memories and power through a special method of spiritual transmission.
To better understand the sacred text, Xuan Yuanche decided to enter seclusion and cultivate, attempting to establish a deeper connection with its power. He entered a secluded meditation chamber deep within the Alliance headquarters, isolating himself from the outside world. Inside, Xuan Yuanche immersed himself day and night in comprehending the sacred text. He constantly adjusted his spiritual energy frequency, trying to resonate with the words within.
After a long period of secluded cultivation, Xuan Yuanche finally made some progress. He successfully deciphered a portion of the sacred text. This portion recorded a formation called the "Radiant Star Array," which requires the combined power of many cultivators, using the power of stars as a guide, to construct a powerful defensive barrier capable of resisting the erosion of dark star power.
After Xuanyuan Che emerged from seclusion, he shared the news with everyone. The Alliance immediately began preparations for constructing the Radiant Star Array. They selected an open area around the Alliance headquarters and, following the instructions in the sacred texts, began setting up the array's foundation stones.
The cultivators contributed their power, infusing their spiritual energy into the foundation stone. As the spiritual energy was poured in, complex runes and patterns gradually emerged on the foundation stone. These runes and patterns echoed the text in the sacred text, radiating a dazzling light.
However, constructing the Star Array was not without its challenges. Halfway through its construction, they encountered a problem: premature fluctuations in the Dark Star's power had caused the world's stellar energy to become extremely chaotic, making it difficult to guide and gather.
To solve this problem, Xuan Yuanche led several cultivators skilled in astrology to the top of the Alliance headquarters tower, attempting to stabilize the stellar power through astrology. They performed complex astrological spells on the tower, observing the changes in the stars in the sky.
After much effort, they discovered a stable star in a distant galaxy. Xuan Yuanche decided to take the risk and used his powerful spiritual energy to establish a weak connection with this star. He then channeled this connection into the construction of the Star Array, using this star as its core to gradually stabilize the power of the other stars.
With the efforts of Xuan Yuanche and others, the power of the stars began to be slowly guided and gathered into the Star Array. The light of the array grew stronger and stronger, gradually forming a huge circular barrier, on which countless starlight shimmered, like a miniature version of the starry sky.
But just as the Star Array of Light was nearing completion, the Shadow Cult launched another attack. Although the Shadow Cult leader was severely wounded in the previous battle, he was unwilling to accept defeat and believed this was the Shadow Cult's last chance. If they could destroy the Star Array of Light, the world would descend into chaos when the power of the Dark Star descended, and the Shadow Cult might seize the opportunity to rise to power.
Under the cover of night, the Shadow Cult members stealthily approached the Alliance headquarters. They set up dark magic traps around the headquarters, attempting to disrupt the construction of the Light Star Array. Then, they launched a surprise attack.
The Alliance's guards immediately detected the Shadow Cult's attack, and alarms sounded at the Alliance headquarters. Cultivators drew power from their array formations and joined the battle. Xuan Yuanche and Su Yao also quickly arrived at the battlefield and engaged in fierce combat with the Shadow Cult members.
Xuanyuan Che unleashed "Xuanyuan Spiritual Radiance Break," its powerful light dispelling the interference of the dark magic traps. He charged towards the Shadow Cult leader, and the two engaged in another life-or-death duel. Su Yao led the other cultivators in a chaotic battle against the Shadow Cult members.
During the battle, Xuan Yuanche discovered that the Shadow Cult Leader's injuries had not fully healed, and his strength was far less than before. Xuan Yuanche decided to end the battle quickly, incorporating the power of the Holy Scripture of Light into his attacks, unleashing a completely new technique.
This move was incredibly powerful, and the Shadow Cult Leader could hardly withstand it. Under Xuan Yuanche's attack, the Shadow Cult Leader's body gradually became ethereal, as if it were about to dissipate. But just as Xuan Yuanche was about to deliver the fatal blow, the Shadow Cult Leader suddenly unleashed a forbidden dark magic.
This dark magic sacrificed his own soul to gain a powerful dark force. The Shadow Cult Leader's body instantly swelled, and his power became extremely strong. He wielded the Shadow Scythe and attacked Xuan Yuanche frantically.
Xuanyuan Che did not back down; he engaged in an even fiercer battle with the leader of the Shadow Cult. At a critical moment, Xuanyuan Che recalled a sentence from the Holy Scripture of Light: "Light and darkness are not absolute opposites, but rather interdependent and mutually transformative."
Xuan Yuanche's heart stirred, and he attempted to guide the dark power of the Shadow Cult leader into the Star Array of Light. He cast a special spell, fusing the Shadow Cult leader's attack with the power of the Star Array of Light.
As the Shadow Cult Leader's attack was channeled into the Star Array of Light, the array's radiance grew even brighter. The stellar power and dark energy within the array collided and merged, creating a new force. This force not only enhanced the Star Array of Light's defensive capabilities but also exerted a powerful backlash on the Shadow Cult Leader.
The Shadow Cult leader stared in horror, trying to stop the attack, but it was too late. His body was engulfed by the power of the Star Array and ultimately dissipated into the air.
With the death of the Shadow Cult leader, the Shadow Cult's attack was completely repelled. The Radiant Star Array was also successfully completed in this battle, silently guarding the Alliance headquarters, awaiting the arrival of the Dark Star Power. Xuan Yuanche and Su Yao gazed at the Radiant Star Array before them, their hearts filled with both hope and worry. They knew that the test of the Dark Star Power was about to begin, and they were fully prepared to fight for the fate of the world.
