Jiang Ye learned about the accelerated time flow within the Dao Stele and the restrictions on staying there. Bai Xi observed Jiang Ye with mixed emotions. Jiang Ye, Prince Zijun, and Qing Mei prepared to venture deeper into the hall, discussing the requirements to become a prodigy, which involve reaching demigod status and ranking well in the Hundred-Star Divine War, a conflict between numerous civilizations.

"You have indeed guessed correctly." Prince Zijun confirmed with a nod and a smile, showing no surprise. The very name of this super star system cluster had practically given it away, after all. A ripple went through Jiang Ye’s heart as he processed Prince Zijun’s words. The sheer immensity of a super star system cluster, potentially encompassing trillions of star systems, was mind-boggling. Yet, the White Dragon Civilization had once held dominion over this entire vast expanse! Such a formidable power had ultimately been… annihilated. "However," Prince Zijun continued, "the Seventh Star Domain contains dozens of such super star system clusters. The White Dragon Star System Cluster is merely one among them." "Do the Huanglong Civilization and Cangxu Civilization fall within this White Dragon Star System Cluster?" Jiang Ye inquired, a touch of confusion in his voice. "Indeed, they do," Prince Zijun replied. "Within the White Dragon Star System Cluster, there exist two major level-3 starry sky civilizations." Prince Zijun stated solemnly, "Our Huanglong Civilization aligns with one faction, while the Cangxu Civilization stands with the other." Jiang Ye finally began to grasp the hierarchy of the universe he found himself in. The structure, from smallest to largest, was: Blue Star Civilization → Huanglong Civilization → Caikun Civilization → White Dragon Star System Cluster → Seventh Star Domain → Star Domain Sea. "The starry expanse is truly vast," Jiang Ye sighed inwardly. "It’s beyond imagining." ... "You should understand now," Prince Zijun elaborated. "The Hundred-Star Divine War holds immense importance for the numerous level-2 civilizations within the White Dragon Star System Cluster." Jiang Ye gave a slight nod. According to Prince Zijun, the White Dragon Star System Cluster, being a super star system cluster, comprised hundreds of star system clusters, each on a scale comparable to the Milky Way. Even so, the prospect of over a hundred level-2 starry sky civilizations vying for prominence within the White Dragon Star System Cluster meant nearly all were compelled to participate in the battle. After all, not every star system possessed the potential to give rise to a level-2 starry sky civilization. "The Hundred-Star Divine War is of profound significance to the Huanglong Civilization," Prince Zijun continued. "It is often intrinsically linked to advancement talent. The higher your rank in the ’Hundred-Star Divine War,’ the greater your likelihood of becoming a genius." "After all, securing advancement talent is never a guaranteed success." Jiang Ye nodded again. Advancement talent was, by its very nature, a matter of probability, let alone aspiring for top-tier talent like becoming a genius. Naturally, acquiring more and superior talent treasures could significantly elevate the chances of advancement. "With Brother Wang’s strength, there’s truly no need for concern," Prince Zijun assured. "There is still considerable time before the Hundred-Star Divine War commences; it will only begin after the Civilization Struggle concludes." He smiled. "By that time, you will undoubtedly dominate all other forces." Jiang Ye simply shook his head and offered a subtle smile. He genuinely felt no anxiety. However, this lack of worry stemmed not from the Hundred-Star Divine War itself, but from the existence of his system. For others, advancement talent was a probabilistic event; for Jiang Ye, it became a certainty once the requisite conditions were met. "Furthermore, I will likely be departing soon," Jiang Ye mused to himself. "I probably won’t even get the chance to participate in this Hundred-Star Divine War." Swoosh! The group pressed onward, soon finding themselves deep within the resplendent, colorful palace. Just as Bai Mu had described, the structure seemed to consist solely of a grand hall, yet this hall appeared to stretch infinitely, with no discernible end. "Buzz!" At that very moment, an immense pressure surged, washing over the entire hall. Each individual felt as though they were carrying a mountain, forcing them to trudge forward with heavy exertion. With every step deeper into the hall, the oppressive force intensified. "Could this be the tempering Bai Mu mentioned?" Jiang Ye pondered, realizing that under this overwhelming pressure, his physical realm seemed utterly negated. It was a most peculiar sensation. One would expect that his physical realm, having shattered multiple life-level shackles and undergone genetic transformation, would be impervious to decline. Yet now, Jiang Ye’s physical prowess felt as though it had regressed to zero, completely ineffective. This situation compelled him to invoke the profound mysteries of the Dao to contend with the strain. "I understand now," Jiang Ye thought. "The pressure within this place can only be resisted by invoking mysterious power or the power of laws. This, in turn, indirectly assists me in refining my comprehension of heaven and earth." Swoosh! As Jiang Ye channeled his mysterious power, a five-colored Dao lotus materialized behind him. "Buzz~" This luminous, five-colored Dao lotus undulated gently, emitting a wave of energy that instantly alleviated the pressure bearing down on Jiang Ye. However, glancing around, Jiang Ye noticed that the others remained unaffected by the emanating aura of the five-colored Dao lotus, still visibly struggling against the oppressive force.

"It appears the pressure affects each individual differently," Jiang Ye commented.

This Dao Stele truly possessed miraculous properties.

"Move forward." Jiang Ye took another step, venturing deeper into the grand hall.

He wasn't the only one.

Bai Mu, Bai Xi, Zi Yaozhi, along with Prince Zijun and Wang Zilu, all steadily made their way onward.

The oppressive force here was considerable, yet their respective strengths allowed them to endure it.

Before long, they had progressed even further.

"Boom!"

The pressure drastically intensified, akin to countless mountains bearing down from above.

Finally.

One member of Bai Mu's contingent could no longer withstand the strain and dropped to their knees, cross-legged. They focused their entire being on resisting the formidable pressure.

Swiftly, a second person followed, then a third...

The remaining group pressed onward.

An increasing number of individuals faltered, including Zi Yaozhi and Mo Xin, as their ability to persevere gradually diminished.

"I cannot proceed further." Bai Xi also came to a halt, her gaze fixed on the solitary figure far ahead. She let out a soft sigh.

Having originated from the Barbaric Dragon Star, she should have possessed the greatest opportunity to approach Jiang Ye.

Regrettably, she had failed to seize that moment!

She understood acutely that the gulf between herself and Jiang Ye would inevitably grow wider, precisely as this scene now demonstrated.

...

As time flowed onward.

Soon, the once-numerous group dwindled to only Jiang Ye, Qing Mei, Prince Zijun, and Wang Zilu.

"How are you holding up?"

"I'm doing alright, aren't I?" Wang Zilu gasped for breath, perspiration streaming down her brow, yet her lovely eyes sparkled with a touch of pride.
