70: Chapter 70 The Temple of the Sun

"Congratulations, Master, on successfully refining the sun temple!"

Seeing the red stone stele fly into Yang Juncheng's Sea of Consciousness, Xu Taiyang's eyes flashed with excitement as he immediately spoke to offer his congratulations.

"Xu Lao, although the sun temple is a Peerless Grade Dao Artifact, it is severely damaged. Ninety-nine percent of its grand formations are ruined, and its power is less than one ten-thousandth of its prime. It urgently requires a large amount of Solar Essence to self-repair. Do you know if there is any place on Blue Star that possesses a large amount of Solar Essence?"

Yang Juncheng looked at Xu Taiyang with an expectant expression.

After refining the sun temple and obtaining the information within it, Yang Juncheng realized just how terrifying the power of this Peerless Grade Dao Artifact was.

If he could repair the sun temple and restore it to its Peak state, Yang Juncheng could absolutely walk unimpeded on Blue Star.

At that time, whether it was the Vicious Beasts and Yao Beasts on Blue Star or the various Ancient Sects hidden in the folded spaces, Yang Juncheng could easily suppress them all.

Therefore, Yang Juncheng greatly hoped to repair the sun temple to its original state and restore it to its Peak.

"Master, I have been trapped within the sun temple for over a hundred thousand years. I have no understanding of the current situation on Blue Star, nor do I know where there might be a large amount of Solar Essence!" Xu Taiyang shook his head and said.

"Xu Lao, you are the artifact spirit of the sun temple and are much older than me. Do not call me Master; just call me Little Jun!" Hearing Xu Taiyang's words, Yang Juncheng said with a smile.

Although Yang Juncheng had refined the sun temple and controlled Xu Taiyang's life and death, he could not access Xu Taiyang's memories.

At the same time, Yang Juncheng himself needed to consume a large amount of Mana and Divine Sense to activate the sun temple, which was far less convenient than Xu Taiyang activating it.

Most importantly, as the artifact spirit of the sun temple, Xu Taiyang possessed the cultivation strength of the Void Immortal Realm at his Peak.

During the hundreds of thousands of years he followed the Great Sun True Immortal, Xu Taiyang had experienced countless things and knew countless secrets, Cultivation Techniques, Martial Skills, and other knowledge and skills, making him a natural treasure trove.

Regarding Xu Taiyang, this natural treasure trove, although Yang Juncheng would not deliberately curry favor, he still needed to show him sufficient respect and treat him with the courtesy of a Disciple.

Only then would Xu Taiyang tell him the various secrets and Cultivation Techniques and Martial Skills he knew, allowing him to take fewer detours.

"Little Jun, although I do not know where there is a large amount of Solar Essence on Blue Star, I can sense treasures containing a large amount of Solar Essence within a radius of a thousand miles!"

"Once I sense those treasures containing Solar Essence, you can find a way to obtain them and let the sun temple absorb and refine them!"

"At the same time, although ninety-nine percent of the sun temple's grand formations are damaged, there are still some that are not, and they can be utilized!"

"Among them, the core of the sun temple, the Matter-Energy Conversion Formation, is completely intact. It can refine treasures containing Solar Essence into pure Solar Essence to repair the damaged formations of the sun temple. It can also absorb the power of the great sun and convert it into Medicinal Pills containing Solar Essence; after incorporating some special fire-attribute Materials, the Matter-Energy Conversion Formation can even refine Magical Artifacts, Spiritual Artifacts, and even Treasure Artifacts containing fire-attribute power!"

"And these Medicinal Pills, Magical Artifacts, Spiritual Artifacts, and Treasure Artifacts containing Solar Essence can be taken out to be sold to obtain Spirit Stones and other wealth, or exchanged for treasures containing Solar Essence."

Hearing Yang Juncheng's words, a warmth arose in Xu Taiyang's heart, and he said with a smile.

Hearing Xu Taiyang's words, Yang Juncheng nodded gently and said, "Xu Lao, the Chiyan Mountain Range where we are located is the third mountain range of Blue Star. It contains rich fire-attribute Spiritual Qi and should possess quite a few treasures containing Solar Essence. Let us go out and search carefully!"

As he spoke, Yang Juncheng moved his mind, and the sun temple shrank rapidly, turning into a ray of red light that submerged into his Sea of Consciousness.

Xu Taiyang turned into a stream of light and flew into the sun temple.

Afterward, Yang Juncheng took a step, and the surrounding space rippled, causing him to disappear from the spot and appear in Hongyan Valley.

"The Spiritual Qi on Blue Star today is too thin; it cannot compare to over a hundred thousand years ago. It is less than one-hundredth of the Spiritual Qi concentration of that time!"

"However, the Spiritual Qi of Blue Star has already revived, and a continuous stream of Chaos power is pouring into Blue Star, converting into pure Spiritual Qi and causing the Spiritual Qi concentration of Blue Star to rise continuously!"

"Before long, Blue Star will experience a Spiritual Energy Tide, allowing the Spiritual Qi concentration of Blue Star to rise directly to another level and return to the Spiritual Qi concentration of the ancient era!"

"At that time, the countless folded spaces hidden in the Void Realm will appear from the Void Realm, and the Ancient Sects within those countless folded spaces will also emerge to fight for the treasure lands of Blue Star. A huge Chaos is inevitable!"

"Little Jun, you had best raise your cultivation to the Primordial Spirit Realm before the Spiritual Energy Tide, and then use the Spiritual Energy Tide to break through the Bottleneck directly and enter the first small Realm of the Longevity Realm, the Wanshou Realm!"

"Once you ascend to a Martial Artist of the Wanshou Realm, you can use the power and authority of the sun temple to bring the Sun God Cult, the Legacy left by the Great Sun True Immortal, under your control. Then, by utilizing the foundation of the Sun God Cult, you can obtain a greater Breakthrough, thereby remaining invincible in the war of the Ancient Sects!"

Just as Yang Juncheng appeared in Hongyan Valley, Xu Taiyang sensed some of the conditions on Blue Star and reminded Yang Juncheng.

"Xu Lao, I have noted what you said! Now, sense whether there are any treasures containing rich Solar Essence nearby?" Yang Juncheng responded softly and asked about information on treasures containing Solar Essence.

"Five hundred kilometers to the front left, there is a treasure containing a large amount of Solar Essence. You can go and take a look!" As soon as Yang Juncheng's voice fell, Xu Taiyang's voice rang in Yang Juncheng's ears.

After receiving Xu Taiyang's reminder, Yang Juncheng immediately urged the Mana in his body, rose into the air, turned into a stream of light, and sped off into the distance.

Very quickly, Yang Juncheng flew above a rather desolate hill.

"Is this a Fire Ant nest?" Looking at the dense swarm of Fire Ants on the barren hill below, Yang Juncheng frowned slightly and muttered softly.

Fire Ants are just a type of extremely terrifying gregarious Vicious Beast.

There are tens of thousands of Fire Ants in a Fire Ant nest.

Although most of them are first, second, and third-tier Fire Ants and are not to be feared, there are also a significant number of fourth-tier Mana Realm Fire Ants, fifth-tier Yin-Yang Realm Fire Ants, and a small number of sixth-tier Heaven-Human Realm Fire Ants.

These Fire Ants like to swallow stones containing fire-attribute Spiritual Qi. Their sharp teeth can easily bite through hard steel, and they also contain significant fire poison. Once a Martial Artist is bitten by a Fire Ant, they will die from the fire poison, which is extremely terrifying.

"A fire crystal mine is hidden in this hill, containing rich Solar Essence!"

"If the sun temple can refine all the fire crystal mines in this hill, it can obtain a large amount of Solar Essence, repair many grand formations and powers, and I can also recover to the cultivation strength of the Nascent Soul Realm to provide you with more help!" While Yang Juncheng was muttering, Xu Taiyang explained to Yang Juncheng.

"I understand!" Yang Juncheng responded softly, moved his mind, and the Low Grade Spiritual Artifact blazing flame sword turned into a ray of light, launching an attack on the Fire Ants on the hill below.
