Chapter 1544: Chapter 1333

“As one with the universe, my thoughts race across the Star River. Taija Unlimited, roaming in spirit; Taija Unchanging, transforming in spirit; Taija Authentic, sincerely divine…”

Li Fan continuously chanted in his heart.

And in his vision, much like the Emperor’s experience before, the seemingly dark and annihilated Star Sea suddenly lit up with specks of starlight.

However, this time, it was different from the direct contact with the Star Sea Origin Consciousness.

With the Taija Divine Art serving as an “interpreter” between the two, Li Fan felt a natural favorability from the Star Sea Origin Consciousness.

Not only was the contempt for insignificant living beings diluted and vanished, but Li Fan also sensed that the Star Sea Consciousness was listening.

How vast is the gap between a cultivator and the vast Star Sea?

Yet, with the Taija Divine Art, this disparity was significantly reduced! Of course, this was partly because the Star Sea was in a state of rebirth after collapse, and Li Fan’s power had already stood at the pinnacle of the mundane Star Sea.

But it must be said that the Taija Divine Art is indeed an extremely profound Divine Technique.

“Only when one’s understanding of the essence of the Star Sea reaches a considerable height, can such a Divine Technique be created.”

“Perhaps, the creator of this divine art has already ascended to immortality long ago.” A thought suddenly flashed through Li Fan’s Spirit Consciousness.

However, he did not forget the purpose of this communication.

Maintaining the casting state of Taija Divine Art, Li Fan’s expression was solemn. First, he praised the greatness of the Star Sea, resurrected from annihilation.

Then, he described the current state of deathly silence in the Star Sea, emphasizing the only sign of life within it: the Xuanhuang World.

Finally, Li Fan sincerely beseeched the Star Sea Consciousness, seeking its help to sublimate the Xuanhuang World and escape the Immortal Ruins.

It was like an ancient emperor offering sacrifices and prayers to the heavens.

After stating his plea, Li Fan fell silent, patiently waiting for the response of the Star Sea Origin Consciousness.

As if presented with a difficult question, the Star Sea Consciousness did not reply for a long time.

But Li Fan felt that the connection between them was not severed, so he continued to stand and wait.

During the communication with the Star Sea Consciousness, various thoughts and inspirations about the Path of the Star Sea assailed him. It was like experiencing the legendary Unity of Heaven and Man, feeling enlightenment at every moment.

However, to Li Fan’s regret, these inspirations were like waves on the vast sea surface. They rose and fell, but as the waves crashed down, they quickly melted back into the water.

“These are not my own enlightenment, but rather a natural phenomenon in this special state. How much I can remember in the end depends on my own creation…” Li Fan understood in his heart.

Immersed in this state close to enlightenment, time seemed to lose meaning. Finally, the Star Sea Consciousness gave a response.

After that, Li Fan was forcibly expelled, breaking the connection with the Star Sea Consciousness.

Taija Divine Art, for some time to come, could not be used again.

A peculiar summoning ritual.

These two understandings also appeared in Li Fan’s Spirit Consciousness at the same time.

“Seems like, the principle behind Taija Divine Art, is the consumption of the Star Sea Origin Consciousness’s favorability. And this favorability grows over time. Since the destruction of Tai Jia, it has been ten thousand years since a cultivator last used this Taija Divine Art. Therefore, the favorability accumulated over these years has reached an astonishing level. That’s why I just had the feeling that the Star Sea was listening…” Li Fan had an epiphany after completing a Star Sea communication ritual.

“However, the years of accumulated favorability were wiped clean with the request I made. At least for the twenty remaining years of my life, I can’t expect it to do anything useful for me. However, it’s alright, after all, I have mastered this Taija Divine Art. In the next life, there will be ten thousand years of favorability for me to squander.”

Perhaps it’s because the favorability accumulated over ten thousand years was quite substantial. Or maybe the sublimation of the Xuanhuang World is beneficial to the overall revival of the Star Sea.

Either way, the Star Sea Consciousness agreed to Li Fan’s request and would help in the sublimation of the Xuanhuang World.

The ritual that was transmitted is the method of receiving assistance from the Star Sea.

“Once the ritual is completed, the Star Sea will directly bestow its mighty power.”

“Even the nascent Star Sea is far beyond what the Xuanhuang World, blended with the Ten Thousand Realms, could compare to.”

“With one more layer of assistance, the plan for Xuanhuang Sublimation has a greater chance of success.”

A peculiar look momentarily flashed across Li Fan’s eyes: “I just wonder if this ritual will still be useful in the next life?”

After a moment, Li Fan slightly shook his head, dismissing his own idea: “This ritual, after all, is merely a signal transmitter. Whether or not it exerts effort is still up to the Star Sea Consciousness itself. Without the prior communication foundation, the Star Sea might just feel disturbed and then become angry. Not only will there be no assistance from the Star Sea, but disaster might also befall as punishment.”

Once all the favorability was exhausted, Li Fan became no different from other Cultivators in the eyes of the Star Sea. As the Ascension Array reached its limit, Li Fan randomly guided the Wooden Sword Mirage to leave, allowing the Array to collapse.

The collapse of the towering peak stirred some ripples in the Central Star Sea. As the commotion gradually subsided, a very faint trace of black air emerged, unnoticed.

The same as before, when Li Fan used the Ascension Array for the Small World sublimation experiment, which then fell from a great height and led to Annihilation, producing a whiff of black air.

Only this time, with no Small World falling, the mere proximity to the most active area of the Star Sea Origin Consciousness was enough to give birth to the black air.
