Chapter 552: Chapter 552

If one masters it, through Heavenly Dao analysis and deduction, it might be possible to obtain the method to build the Earth Vein Extreme Point and use it in one’s own world in the future.

This indeed holds boundless potential.

Small Knife observes carefully day by day, and due to the absence of an owner and perfection of this Earth Vein Extreme Point, it is even clearer to observe what he needs.

Now, he discovers that the Immortal Artifact Spirit, with its special soul, cannot approach the Earth Vein, so it does not flee due to its lack of wisdom.

Moreover, it appears that this Future Artifact Spirit is restricted somehow. Even though it is attracted here and instinctively wants to devour the Earth Vein Origin, it cannot do so.

In contrast, the lifeless Immortal City relies on the operation of the array to slowly absorb this Earth Vein Origin.

The Immortal City, while absorbing this origin, seemingly doesn’t use it itself but instead transfers it to supply the Artifact Spirit, making it more approachable and slowly merging with itself.

Through observation and speculation, Small Knife thinks if this Future Artifact Spirit wishes to break free from the Immortal City, it’s not impossible.

The Immortal City relies on absorbing the Earth Vein Origin, converts it through the array, lets the Future Artifact Spirit absorb it, and thus merges with itself to unite with the Artifact Spirit bit by bit.

Once completely unified, the Immortal City will possess the Artifact Spirit, thus becoming a Spiritual Artifact.

Under the control of the Artifact Spirit, it can exert its full power.

Currently, even though the Immortal City is powerful, it seems like a lifeless object.

No, that’s not right!

Those Nascent Souls can operate part of it through authority.

Because the Immortal City, although only a top-grade treasure, is countless times larger than ordinary magical treasures. Even a Nascent Soul powerhouse cannot operate it alone, as they cannot supply enough spiritual power and would be drained dry.

Small Knife’s ability to analyze so much is naturally due to the right time, right place, and right people.

To another, not having been the Master of a World, not having personal space for Heavenly Dao analysis, achieving this would not be possible.

Therefore, Small Knife at this time again utilizes the special Earth Vein Extreme Point location and Origin flow to observe the Immortal City; studying this more is helpful for his artifact refining.

In his heart, he has already planned to craft a new magical treasure, a large one activated through combined efforts, integrating sacrificial artifacts and technology.

The current spaceship flying to the nearest planet other than Moon Star in reality is this kind of thinking.

It can accommodate tens of thousands of people living for hundreds, even a thousand years without much issue.

More akin to survival type, also survives in space, but weak in combat strength.

However, it’s just a prototype, possessing only sacrificial artifact and technological artifact refining means, without incorporating insights acquired from this Immortal City.

Believing that next time, it will definitely be done better.

Small Knife is at the Earth Vein Pole Core, observing the Immortal City through the Earth Vein Extreme Point Origin Energy flow, analyzing several refining methods and materials, none are problematic, for he had already purchased the corresponding books and information, all recorded in personal space long ago.

In his heart, he is lamenting that if this Immortal City were disassembled, it would be enough to break down into hundreds of magical treasures.

Only the Four Celestial Great Worlds can create such a massive thing.

If this thing could be fully activated, it would absolutely be a large flying city, not hindering attack, defense, residence, and war.

Of course, under normal circumstances, a Nascent Soul’s exhaustion is needed to activate it for a strike.

After all, it consumes too much.

This observation made Small Knife pause.

Because with the Immortal City activated, it consumed a considerable amount of absorbed origin, thus the Artifact Spirit became somewhat restless, requiring at least several hundred years to fuse again from scratch.

Activated, not knowing what for? Have their heads filled with demon children upon entering the city?

Small Knife quickly, confidently observes the stimulated Immortal City; such data is rare.

Something’s wrong, this activation is over the top, chaotic aura, indicating quite a few Nascent Soul cultivators are activating it.

The aura moves around the periphery of the Immortal City, then slowly heads toward the core.

This is checking the entire city, soon reaching here.

The reason Small Knife is able to observe the Immortal City here.

Is also because the absorbed Earth Vein Extreme Point Origin was distributed to the Artifact Spirit several times.

No other benefits, blatantly leveraging the World Master’s ability to observe the Immortal City, the Artifact Spirit with favorable impression does not obstruct.

Of course, malice must not be present.

Even without instinctual wisdom, any act of malice, and Small Knife would immediately turn to ash.

The opponent is too powerful, not even in the same league.

And these Nascent Soul cultivators’ chaotic aura from driving the Immortal City makes the Artifact Spirit somewhat restless, but unknown methods didn’t stop it.

Seeing the aura circling the Immortal City, soon reaching the core.

Damn, what are they doing? This will reveal me.

Damn, except for Earth Vein Extreme Point Origin being stolen, what else could cause such a big commotion?

They can’t find who stole the Earth Vein Extreme Point Origin, naturally, they’d activate it.

And who stole the Earth Vein Extreme Point Origin, Small Knife knows all too well.

Because it’s himself.

Having settled here, he almost forgot he is the biggest thief.

In fact, Small Knife had long been worried about this aspect, but they hadn’t come looking for so long, absorbed in his research, he unexpectedly overlooked it.

After peace for so long, he had become careless.

Originally having several response plans prepared, Small Knife now ponders.

Immediately selects one.

Quickly retract the array first.

Because of long-term extraction and improvement, even without the aid of the array, Small Knife can still extract the Earth Vein Extreme Point Origin here, albeit much slower.

Switched to an auxiliary breakthrough array.

Took out some Spirit Medicine from personal space.

This body has reached Golden Core Great Perfection, Small Knife naturally doesn’t have the ability to help it break through, but to bolster its aura, giving the impression of possible breakthrough suffices.

After all, he can stay here for a hundred years, using it to breakthrough. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by noveⅼfire.net

Small Knife laments, too slow, making him wait.

At this time, the group of Nascent Soul cultivators sitting cross-legged, utilizing authority to control the Immortal City, changed their expressions.

One by one, they became gloomy.

They are very confident that no matter where it hides, what methods are employed, by activating the Immortal City, they can find it.

With such great efforts, just wanted to find that damned fellow.

As long as it’s stealing, it can be detected.

The problem is that it stopped, naturally making it undetectable.

This massive operation turns out in vain, which is a big problem.

Because if it can steal once, it can steal a second, a third time.

And using the Immortal City’s methods absolutely can’t be used repeatedly.

Every time, it delays the evolution of the Immortal City into a Spiritual Artifact, or if too many times, possibly causing failure, the Artifact Spirit could completely separate from the Immortal City.

That would be disastrous.

Without the two ancestors, let alone being sealed here, they couldn’t even invite a Great Power to initially link the Immortal City with the Artifact Spirit.

It might even attract prying eyes.

Suddenly, the atmosphere here is extremely heavy.

"Now we can basically exclude the outskirts of the Inner City. It’s only upon checking the central area that the opponent found the disconnect," said Elder Wu of the Wu Family solemnly.

Everyone’s expressions changed again because in the Inner City core, only their two families could access, other forces couldn’t even get close.

So, able to hide as a Nascent Soul Cultivator here, it must be either one of their two families’ people, or an external impersonator.

Of course, they simply discussed and believed the possibility of an external impersonator is higher, requiring detailed review.

Considering cultivation concealment, this time it must be detailed down to any strength, even mortals.

However, since it concerns only the two families, excluding outsiders, thorough investigation is easier, and must thoroughly investigate.

This time, leveraging many Nascent Soul powerhouses’ authority to jointly drive the Immortal City.

Within the Inner City, even hidden cultivation should have nowhere to escape.

So, even if the enemy no longer steals the Earth Vein Origin, the thorough investigation didn’t cease.

Finding the hidden Nascent Soul level perpetrator would be a success in itself.

All the Nascent Soul cultivators were dumbfounded.

Having thoroughly investigated the entire city, even the core area wasn’t spared.

Confirmed no other hidden Nascent Soul powerhouses.

Using the Immortal City, with high certainty, yet no Nascent Soul cultivator was discovered.

This unexpected outcome left them dumbstruck.

The Nascent Soul powerhouses looked at each other, bewildered.

"Could it be a Divinity Transformation powerhouse?" someone suggested, immediately receiving disdain from others.
