Jiang Ye's breakthrough to Demigod Perfection is acknowledged by Bingli, who arrives with the Profound Ice Civilization to support the Qiuqing Divine Hall. While a temporary ceasefire is in place, God Black Obsidian warns Jiang Ye of the dangers within the Star Sky Forbidden Land. Meanwhile, Gods Thunder Ash and Lei Hao of the Celestial Battle Civilization faction plot to assassinate Jiang Ye within the forbidden land, seeing it as the perfect opportunity.

"Go!"

Jiang Ye and the Black Obsidian Deity turned into flowing light, rushing into the Star Sea Bridge.

Golden light enveloped their bodies, space twisted violently, as if squeezed and torn by an invisible giant hand.

The next moment, heaven and earth spun.

...

"We’ve arrived."

The voice of Black Obsidian was deep.

Jiang Ye steadied himself, raised his eyes to look, his pupils suddenly contracted.

In front of him was a vast, boundless shattered Star Domain.

Countless star remains floated in the void, some as large as planets, some no bigger than boulders, densely packed, extending endlessly.

Between the remains, a gray mist flowed slowly, seemingly calm, yet containing a heart-stopping destructive aura.

Even more terrifying were the occasional pitch-black cracks in the void, like hideous wounds, devouring all surrounding light and matter.

"This is the Shattered Star Belt."

The Black Obsidian Deity stood with hands behind his back, his green robe fluttering without wind, his gaze sweeping across: "The entrance to the Dark Star Abyss."

Jiang Ye nodded slightly, his divine thought silently spread out, instantly sensing the horror of this area.

Space was extremely unstable, gravity chaotic, laws twisted, resembling an abandoned land of death.

"The transmission was disrupted." Jiang Ye surveyed around, not seeing Bingli, the Black Obsidian Deity, or others.

All the civilizational teams were forcibly scattered by the power of the abyss, each landing in different parts of the Shattered Star Belt.

"Senior."

"What is the origin of this Dark Star Abyss?" Jiang Ye couldn’t help but ask.

The map given by the Black Obsidian Deity only had simple structural divisions, without detailed introductions.

"The origin of the Dark Star Abyss is immense."

"It is said, a place of the ancient era." Black Obsidian Deity possessed abundant intelligence: "The fall location of an ancient deity named the Dark Ancient God of 3.9-grade civilization."

"3.9-grade?"

Jiang Ye’s mind shook.

The 3.9-grade civilization of the ancient era was definitely the peak of third-level civilization.

"When that ancient god fell."

"His divine body disintegrated, his divine soul shattered." Black Obsidian sighed: "His lifetime cultivation and mastery of the dark Dao scattered in this star domain, undergoing endless years of evolution to form this black hole-level perilous realm."

"The Shattered Star Belt was formed by the collision of his divine body fragments with surrounding stars during his fall."

Jiang Ye glanced at the floating star remains.

It turns out these shattered stars are witnesses to the fall of a deity!

"Amidst the Shattered Star Belt,"

"There are Star Essence Crystals that can greatly enhance a cultivator’s control over the Dao Planet." Black Obsidian casually mentioned: "Additionally, there’s Void Crystal Sand, Divine Fall Iron, and other materials that can be used to craft deity-grade weapons."

Jiang Ye’s heart was stirred.

Treasures to increase Dao Planet control were no longer useful to him.

He had long reached Perfection.

But materials to craft deity-grade weapons?

"Recently, I’ve grasped a trace of majestic divine power." Jiang Ye pondered: "Crafting a personal divine weapon truly deserves to be prioritized."

Although he possessed a divine weapon, it wasn’t truly his own.

Only a personal divine weapon, perfectly aligned with his own laws, could unleash maximum power.

"You’ve grasped the Divine Technique?" Black Obsidian suddenly paused, turning to him.

"Yes."

"I completed the transformation of the Divine Technique not long ago." Jiang Ye respectfully replied.

"Oh?" Black Obsidian’s eyes flashed with a trace of brilliance.

Earlier, from Venerable Bai’s words, he learned that Jiang Ye had broken through to Demigod Perfection a month ago, and by logic, transforming the Divine Technique should still be some way off.

At present, he broke through so quickly?

"No wonder this lad garnered the attention of Palace Master Bailie." Black Obsidian mused: "Indeed, extraordinary."

"Ye Jiang."

"Here, danger is substantial as well." Black Obsidian’s tone grew more patient: "Even Demigod Perfection touching those spatial cracks may face the risk of falling."

Before Black Obsidian finished speaking, a gray mist suddenly drifted from afar, appearing gentle but carrying a terrifying sharpness.

"Hiss~"

The mist swept across a star remnant tens of thousands of miles wide, slicing it in half as smoothly as cutting tofu, the cut surface mirror-like!

"Invisible Blade."

Black Obsidian casually noted: "It can sever even a Demigod Perfection’s divine body, posing considerable risk to you as well."

Jiang Ye’s gaze grew solemn.

This Shattered Star Belt, indeed perilous beyond measure!

"The treasures here are of limited value to you." Black Obsidian spoke: "We should hurry through, entering the Chaos Sea as swiftly as possible, that is where the divine soul supreme treasure you need is found."

"Alright."

Jiang Ye nodded, both transformed into flowing light, rushing toward the depths of the Shattered Star Belt.

...

After traversing for a long time.

Suddenly, Black Obsidian Deity paused, gazing into the distance.

"Hmm?"

"There..."

Jiang Ye followed his gaze and saw, deep within the Shattered Star Belt, an extraordinarily huge star remnant spanned the void. Its diameter exceeded a million kilometers.

An ancient, vast, and tragic aura came forth, causing breath to catch.

"The Ancient Divine Battlefield."

The eyes of Black Obsidian flashed: "Before the Dark Ancient God’s fall, he fought fierce battles here with formidable enemies, leaving many traces."

"Perhaps there’s considerable opportunity."

The two exchanged glances, making a move at the same time.

...

Approaching the gigantic shattered star, Jiang Ye immediately felt an ancient vast aura envelop him.

The surface of the remains bore deep and bottomless ravines and craters everywhere, seemingly struck by supreme power.

Even more striking were the scattered fragments of broken divine weapons!

Those weapon fragments, some large as mountains, others as small as palms, all emitted a faint divine pressure.

"These materials." Jiang Ye’s gaze burned.

Crafting a personal divine weapon requires precisely these!

"Someone’s here."

Black Obsidian suddenly spoke, eyes looking into the distance.

Jiang Ye’s divine thought swept across, instantly discovering dozens of figures had already gathered at various parts of the shattered star.
