I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

An emergency meeting convened in the virtual Celestial Net.

The Celestial Net AI Bob established a special ”firewall” to block all possible perceptions.

This is the highest-level meeting, with participants including: Great Xia Leader Han Zhan, Great Xia Commander-in-Chief Lin Jingxuan, Great Xia Research Institute Director Shang Siteng, and Celestial Net AI Bob.

Only four people participated, not even Shang Jianyue, Ye Qiu, or other Contracted Spirit girls, which shows the high level of confidentiality of this meeting.

It’s not that they don’t trust others.

Rather, some things are better known by fewer people.

”Then let me get straight to the point.”

Seeing everyone present, Han Zhan spoke directly, describing everything he had experienced to the group.

After hearing Han Zhan’s description, the other three remained silent.

The scene was too shocking; even with their utmost imagination, it was difficult to envision it without personal experience.

The end of the River of Time.

A rust-stained bronze long table.

God-like blurry shadows, ten high-backed chairs...

”From your description, let’s hypothesize this way.”

After a moment of silence, Lin Jingxuan carefully began to speak first.

”What can be presently confirmed is that this transmission vortex leading to the end of the River of Time should be the doing of the World Tree. Even the voice calling in the dream is related to it.”

There are many aspects that can corroborate this.

For example, the voice Han Zhan heard, which also appeared when he wielded the heart ape.

For example, that small tree in the desert, which looks unmistakably like a miniature version of the World Tree.

Another example includes the ”door” of the white vortex, the World Tree pattern appearing when Han Zhan sat on the high-backed chair at the end of the River of Time.

And so on.

”So, what we need to figure out now is what It wants us to do.”

”Or, in other words, what does It want to remind you to accomplish?”

As the Commander-in-Chief, Lin Jingxuan’s perspective always cuts through the noise, getting straight to the point.

”It said time is running out and urged Ah Zhan to go to the end of the River of Time, indicating there should be clues or answers there.”

Shang Siteng also spoke at this moment.

The World Tree is step-by-step guiding Han Zhan, leading him through the desert small tree, the dark abyss, the white vortex, to the destination at the end of the River of Time.

It’s just that those beings, suspected to be deities, speak in completely incomprehensible language.

How do you translate what you want to know from this incomprehensible language?

”Toptrous.”

Suddenly, Shang Siteng repeated this word.

”I think Toptrous should be the clue we want.”

”Because in Ah Zhan’s description, during the meeting held at the end of the River of Time, everyone was shouting this name before it concluded.”

The name must have special significance.

”I think the same as Siteng,” Han Zhan nodded slightly, speaking, ”Toptrous should be the name of a planet.”

”In the end, that blurry shadow manifested a model of a planet.”

Because they were sitting face to face, Han Zhan could clearly see the specific scene on the surface of the golden sphere.

It indeed resembled a planet.

”But the problem returns to the starting point. We cannot leave Blue Star, at least, not before Ascension to Saint.”

Little Dragon Man Bob shook his tail and raised his hand as a virtual light screen appeared above his head.

”After your discussion, I used the Heaven Net Core to run some logic.”

”Now let me share my thoughts.”

”My view is that the crisis originates from the World Tree.”

Bob continued, ”Perhaps this sounds incomprehensible to you. I’ll extrapolate with a simple logic point.”

”The Queen Mother of the West said not to easily break through to Transcendence and become a Saint. Otherwise, one would suffer unknown gaze and disaster.”

”All the saints have disappeared, proving that the Queen Mother of the West’s words are not baseless.”

”Yi Fan absorbed four portions of Divine Origin, becoming a deity; he certainly broke through to Transcendence.”

”In order to save Blue Star, the World Tree, as the last resort, fused ten billion Origins to complete Resurrection, defeating someone like Yi Fan, a powerhouse in the Realm of Transcendence.”

”Thus, the strength of the World Tree must be above Transcendence.”

”Combining with the previous occurrences of the World Tree disappearing, the Fruit World withering, leaving only the bud of the Bodhi Treasure Tree, having gone through unknown ages to recover.”

Bob stopped here.

There was no need to elaborate further.

”That’s the possible result AI deduced after I input the crucial logic information into the Celestial Net terminal.”

”There seems to be a certain form of confrontation between the World Tree and the being behind the gaze that makes saints disappear.”

”The Primordial True Insect might be a pawn.”

”The saints of the Fruit World killed the Primordial True Insect, attracting calamity, causing the World Tree to suffer severe damage and ultimately vanish into deathly silence.”

It must be said, Bob’s speculations, although initially surprising, seem to make sense.

”So the first thing the World Tree does after recovery is to protect Blue Star again, just as it protects other fruit worlds?” Shang Siteng followed Bob’s line of thought, speaking.

”Could it be that in the World Tree’s judgment, only breaking through to the Realm of Transcendence provides the power to protect oneself.”

”But in that case, how are we supposed to break through the Fruit World’s barriers to reach other planets?”

The discussion seemed to hit a stalemate at this point.

At this moment, Lin Jingxuan spoke again: ”Perhaps I can try using divination to see if I can gain guidance from fate.”

”No, that’s too dangerous. Attempting to divine above Transcendence with Tier Nine Ultimate? Isn’t that tantamount to suicide?” Han Zhan shook his head.

He wanted to say more but was stopped by Lin Jingxuan raising his hand.

”Since the World Tree judges that your current strength can solve this, I need only to divine something relatively near; it shouldn’t be too dangerous.”

”For instance, how to reach Toptrous?”

After listening to Lin Jingxuan’s explanation, Han Zhan considered it and had no more objections.

Thus, Lin Jingxuan summoned the River Map and Luo Book, which transformed into a golden turtle shell shape before them.

Subsequently, Lin Jingxuan formed spells with both hands, channeling golden Profound Texts from his fingertips into the turtle shell.

Soon, crisp colliding sounds emanated from within the golden turtle shell, shortly after, six golden beams of light swiftly flew out from it.

Prepared in advance, Lin Jingxuan gently waved his sleeve, and the turtle shell returned to its original River Map and Luo Book form.

The River Map and Luo Book spread open the long scroll, drawing the six beams of light into it.

Suddenly, a new scene appeared on the long, blank scroll.

It was an item that seemed familiar.

”This is...”

”Ansoo’s Shuttle Gate!”
