My Arts Evolve When Perfected

Although Jiang Qiu had already left the Desolate Realm, the legends he left behind never faded. In fact, they grew even more intense. As news of the Soul Race’s extermination spread, the mystique surrounding him reached its absolute peak.

The Soul Race’s demise was an overnight affair. It was like being on a phone call with someone; the line was still open, but the other person had suddenly gone silent. Then, a news report flashed on the TV announcing their bizarre death. It was utterly terrifying.

At the time, many members of the Soul Race who hadn’t yet returned home were scared out of their wits. They didn’t even dare go to the Soul Race Oasis City, choosing instead to live in anonymity. Those with the means to escape fled the Desolate Realm entirely. Those without simply holed up in some godforsaken corner, terrified of being hunted down and killed.

As for revenge?

With what?

The Soul Race was wiped out overnight, in the blink of an eye! Crucially, no one saw who did it, nor could they even figure out the method of their destruction. Under these circumstances, who would dare to even think of revenge?

They were lucky to have even survived. After all, no ant would seek revenge on a natural disaster. Vengeance would be impossible. When faced with an irresistible cataclysm, most people’s first reaction is to survive, not to overcome it.

A natural disaster doesn’t even have a physical form. It is high and aloof, looking down upon all living things. Absolutely no one would dare seek retribution!

In truth, a situation like the Soul Race’s wasn’t particularly unheard of in the entire [Primordial] world. Some major races would occasionally provoke the Dao of a Harmonization Realm expert or be annihilated by a wandering Harmonization Realm expert simply because their food wasn’t to their liking. In the eyes of a Harmonization Realm being, the Soul Race was nothing more than ants that could be crushed at will.

Beneath the Harmonization Realm, all beings are but ants.

Most people suspected that a master from Jiang Qiu’s Human Race was behind it. On the surface, the Human Race was unremarkable, but in reality, they possessed unknown reserves of power, much like some hidden clans. These clans might usually hole up in some small, forgotten corner, but they were actually filled with Fusion Realm cultivators, with several Harmonization Realm masters guarding their Ancestral Land.

Otherwise, no one would believe that a declining, minor race could produce a prodigy as monstrous as Jiang Qiu. Nor would they believe that any rational race would allow a peerless prodigy like him to wander the outside world without protection.

Therefore, the conclusion was clear: the Human Race behind Jiang Qiu was actually a powerful Hidden Clan, and he was merely paving the way for his clan’s emergence into the world...

As such thoughts reverberated across the Desolate Realm’s network, a new message reached [Celestial Star]’s ears in the Celestial Star Arena: "You’re saying that Blue Star is actually barren, its resources backward, barely comparable to a single Great Oasis City in our Desolate Realm?"

"Yes."

On the other end of the cross-dimensional communication, the Fusion Realm subordinate was completely respectful, but also a little helpless. After all, he really hadn’t found anything unusual about Blue Star.

Not only were its resources barren, but its civilization had also experienced a collapse. Its greatest advantage was perhaps the abundance of Secret Realms. The sheer number of Secret Realms was truly immense; even when compared to the entire [Primordial] world-cluster, it was the place with the most Secret Realms, bar none.

At least, that was the case in the known parts of the [Primordial] world-cluster. Every small world and Great Realm was lacking in Secret Realms. A Secret Realm is essentially a remnant fragment of spacetime.

It was as if a once-complete world-space shattered, but for some special reason, its fragments weren’t digested by the current era’s will and were left behind.

However, under normal circumstances, undigested spacetime fragments would scatter. It’s rare for them to be clustered together. At the time, he thought he had discovered a Treasure Vault, that the Secret Realms might contain some incredible inheritances.

As it turned out, and as expected, many of the ruins contained Cultivation Techniques left over from the previous era, but their quality was extremely Low Level. For the Three-Life Race, they were nothing but common street wares.

The information they contained was also vague, with all sorts of data gaps. They couldn’t even form a coherent narrative. You could probably find a random passerby in any decent Sect in a Great Realm and get more valuable rumors than what could be excavated from the Secret Realms of Blue Star.

In other words, Blue Star was a junkyard. It was where all the undigested trash from the previous era had piled up, its value pathetically low.

And because it had been swept through by [Zuo Xuan] before, its value had dropped to an extreme low. It had virtually no transactional value...

Upon learning this, [Celestial Star] raised an eyebrow. After a long moment of silence, he spoke in a solemn tone: "If it has no value, then we create value. Are you not aware of how renowned the name [Jiang Qiu] is in the Desolate Realm right now?

Every creator of a fifty-win streak is a legend in their own right. If they don’t fall midway, they are destined to ascend to the Harmonization Realm in the future. We are now helping the hometown of a future Harmonization Realm expert. We must have a more long-term vision!

And he won’t be just any Harmonization Realm expert."

Although he had witnessed Jiang Qiu traversing spacetime to leave the Desolate Realm, after receiving the information about Blue Star, he was no longer so sure about the man’s true strength.

’How could such a barren, broken place possibly produce a Harmonization Realm expert?

It couldn’t even produce someone at the Fusion Realm!

But the more he thought about it, the more astonishing it became. Jiang Qiu was a prodigy who had fought his way out of that broken place. He was someone who had genuinely killed enemies across Realms!’
