One Trait Draw Per Year Even Simulations Count

”What are they fighting over?”

”Of course, it’s the legacy of the Female Celestial Emperor!”

”What’s in it?”

”Although I don’t know the specifics, anything from a Celestial Emperor, even a strand of hair, must be priceless!”

The All-Knowing truly lived up to his nickname.

No matter what you asked him, he could always provide some answers.

For things too secretive, he might not know, but when it came to current events, he could talk about them with great authority.

For instance, he could tell you who the most fiercely competing groups were right now.

Si Duoduo, a Dragon-Man, Sect Master of the Tiansha Sect, a Transcendent Realm expert, known as the Demon Calamity True Lord.

Dragon-Men were born with fleshy wings, but under the rules of the Real Realm, their initial flight was limited to gliding.However, having cultivated to Si Duoduo’s level, free flight was no problem.

Ku Erdong, a Winged Clan member, Sect Master of the Feiyu Sect, a Transcendent Realm expert, known as the Holy Light True Lord.

Both were races born with wings, so naturally, Si Duoduo and Ku Erdong had squared off against each other.

Moreover, the Tiansha Sect and the Feiyu Sect had always been mortal enemies.

It wasn’t just the Sect Masters who had arrived; many high-ranking members and prodigious disciples from both sects were also clashing in this area.

It seemed they wanted to use this opportunity to settle all old and new grudges at once.

Yang Juren, a Three-Eyed Clan member, Sect Master of the Qingqiu Sect, a Transcendent Realm expert, known as the Void-Breaking True Lord.

Although this Sect Master Yang had a high cultivation realm, he apparently didn’t enjoy aerial combat. Thus, he didn’t use any means to float in the air, instead engaging his opponents in ground battles.

Currently, among the cultivators scrambling for treasures on site, these three were the only ones at the Transcendent Realm.

Yang Juren and many experts from the Qingqiu Sect were dealing with other famous cultivators on Blazing Star.

Among them, there was one person you recognized at a glance.

”Myriad Treasures Child Goddess!”

The Old Hag was leading a group of Extreme Terrain Realm cultivators in besieging Yang Juren.

Although they were inferior in cultivation to Yang Juren, who could kill them with a single charge, the Old Hag managed to hold her ground temporarily with the help of numerous Spiritual Treasures.

The All-Knowing was explaining the various factions and their relationships to you. Hearing you utter the name ”Myriad Treasures Child Goddess,” he was quite surprised.

”You know her? Right, she’s also human... what’s your relationship?”

”That’s none of your business. Keep talking!”

”The three major sects sure are quick and decisive. I hear their Grand Elders are already on the way. It looks like the treasures unearthed from Tianhuo Xuan Nu’s cenotaph this time will definitely be divided among the three major sects.”

You didn’t care who divided them up because in the next simulation, they would all be yours!

”Do you know the exact location of the cenotaph?”

”See that shattered Xuannv Temple over there? The cenotaph is buried right underneath it.”

”It’s that obvious, and it was only discovered today?”

”Didn’t I say? There’s residual Celestial Emperor power. Even if it was right in front of you, you wouldn’t be able to find it!”

You silently noted this down. It was crucial information.

”They’re fighting so fiercely, which means some very powerful treasures have surfaced... do you know what’s inside?”

The All-Knowing said helplessly.

”I just got here myself. But according to legend, the most famous Celestial Emperor Divine Martial Artifact, the Mysterious Fire Mirror, was buried alongside the cenotaph!”

”Celestial Emperor Divine Martial Artifact...”

You noticed that even those Transcendent Realm experts occasionally used divine marks in battle.

It seemed divine marks were an extremely common and versatile technique in the Real Realm.

You also noticed that some people’s divine marks were gold, while others were red.

Seeing that you didn’t even know this, the All-Knowing gave you a suspicious look.

”Where are you from? You’re at the Core Formation Realm, right? How can you not know this?”

You clenched your fist, making your knuckles crack.

The All-Knowing coughed and began to explain.

”Gold is the commoner divine mark, red is the noble divine mark.”

”What’s the difference?”

”Absolutely none. The strokes and effects of the divine marks are completely identical.”

”Then why are the colors different?”

”Because noble divine marks can suppress commoner divine marks. If two people compete with divine marks, one using a noble mark and the other a commoner mark, the latter can never win.”

”Why doesn’t everyone just learn the noble divine mark?”

”Then guess why it’s called ’noble’?”

You understood.

The All-Knowing added another sentence.

”You can’t learn divine marks.”

”Why not?”

”Humans are forbidden from learning divine marks. Not just on Blazing Star, but throughout the entire Ares Immortal Kingdom. Other Immortal Kingdoms might have the same rule.”

”No, that Myriad Treasures Child Goddess is human too. Why can she use divine marks?”

”There are exceptions to every rule. And I’m guessing she had to pay some price to earn that privilege.”

You were unimpressed by this.

Can’t learn?

If I learn in secret, how would they know?

Any alien who sees my divine marks will have to die!

The only problem was, you didn’t know who to learn from now.

”What is this ’Ares Immortal Kingdom’ you mentioned?”

This was the first time you had encountered the concept of a similar nation.

The All-Knowing told you that an Immortal Kingdom was a ruling polity spanning multiple stellar systems.

The Southern Star Realm had only two Immortal Kingdoms, and Ares was one of them.

Fortune Star, Blazing Star, and all planets within Ares’ territory were theoretically subject to Ares’ governance.

However, the Immortal Kingdom paid little attention to third-class or second-class stars, only setting up the position of Star Lord and requiring him to pay tribute on time.

You had now generally grasped the ins and outs of this cenotaph’s emergence and prepared to leave.

You did want to rush in and grab something.

But the ones making a move were all Extreme Terrain or Transcendent Realm experts. You really couldn’t get involved.

Just then, your heart trembled, and you felt a strange sensation.

You looked up, and the vision the Traffic Light marked around you had turned a deep, purplish red!

The danger coefficient was maxed out!

”What’s going on?”

You heard the sound of something breaking the air.

Following the sound, you saw several glowing objects flying towards you at high speed.

Chasing after these things were experts like the Holy Light True Lord, the Demon Calamity True Lord, the Void-Breaking True Lord, and the Myriad Treasures Child Goddess.

The All-Knowing was startled.

”Oh no! The Celestial Emperor’s relics are flying this way! Run, run now!”

It was already too late.

A bronze mirror, a long dress, a phoenix crown, a pair of boots, a red cloth, and a jade slip all crashed right at your feet.

At that moment, a fierce internal struggle was raging in your mind.

Pick them up, and you might get blown to bits by the powerful experts chasing after.

Don’t pick them up, run immediately, and you might have a chance to escape alive.

Pick them up or not?
