"Lao Hu, do you think this could be an Iron Drum?" Mo Zheng pointed at a huge rock, ten zhang high, and asked.

Hu Wuxin was stunned. Wasn’t this just a rock?

In the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield, such rocks were commonplace. How could it be an Iron Drum?

But as soon as his Divine Will touched the rock, he was shocked.

It really was an Iron Drum.

It had just experienced who knows how many years, and its exterior was already mottled like a stone.

Due to the passage of time, the drum’s exterior had naturally formed various Prohibitions.

"This might be an incredible treasure," said Hu Wuxin excitedly after confirming it was indeed an Iron Drum.

His Divine Will could only inspect the surface of the drum; it couldn’t penetrate inside.

"Let’s break the natural Prohibitions on the outside, and then take it away," declared Mo Zheng without any hesitation.

"Alright," Hu Wuxin immediately summoned his Magical Treasure.

Although they didn’t say it, they had already decided to give this Magical Treasure to Ding Huan.

Since entering the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield, Ding Huan had saved them many times and, in the end, even gave them a heap of Cultivation Resources.

Over the past two years, they had encountered danger in the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield numerous times, and each time it was the talismans given by Ding Huan that saved them.

Now in their rings, they had a pile of Spirit Veins, and they had collected many materials that were rarely seen.

It could be said that the contents of their Space Rings now exceeded those of the rings they had lost.

Not only that, but both of their cultivations had reached the late stage of the Void God Realm.

This was not only because the scattered Spirit Veins in the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield were too numerous, but more importantly, because they had gained a lot from discussing the Great Dao with Ding Huan for ten days.

Of course, there was an unspoken reason: they found it difficult to divide the Iron Drum between them.

Wouldn’t all problems be solved by giving it to Ding Huan?

"Boom!" The two Magical Treasures struck the Iron Drum at the same time.

It was like a thunderclap exploding beneath the Nine Heavens.

A dense Spiritual Energy surged up into the sky, which shocked both Hu Wuxin and Mo Zheng.

The two exchanged glances and then felt an extreme thrill in their hearts.

There must be a top-tier Spirit Vein beneath this Iron Drum, at the very least a superior one. With a bit more luck, there might even be a transcendent Spirit Vein among them.

Knowing there could be a top-tier Spirit Vein here, the two acted even more swiftly.

Boom, boom, boom!

Their Magical Treasures continued to pound at the edges of the drum.

In order to muffle the sound, they deliberately avoided hitting the face of the drum.

After three whole days of bombardment, they finally blasted out a Spirit Vein.

"It’s a transcendent Spirit Vein," Mo Zheng exclaimed excitedly.

In the Triple Heaven Star Land, superior Spirit Veins were scarce, but not particularly remarkable.

Any Sect would incorporate a superior Spirit Vein.

But a transcendent Spirit Vein, those were few and far between.

Only the very top Great Sects would have a transcendent Spirit Vein.

The reason Ding Huan was able to obtain a transcendent Spirit Vein from Shi Jiantian’s ring last time was purely because of Shi Jiantian’s serendipity.

Not every Immortal’s ring contained a transcendent Spirit Vein.

Let alone Immortal Cultivators, even Earth Immortal Cultivators would need great fortune to own a transcendent Spirit Vein.

After bombing out part of the transcendent Spirit Vein, Hu Wuxin threw out dozens of Array Flags and, by harnessing the Moving Array and furiously channeling True Yuan, he actually managed to extract it.

"There’s another one here; one for each of us," Hu Wuxin said, looking excitedly at another transcendent Spirit Vein below.

For them, the efficacy of cultivating with a Spirit Vein was immeasurably better than with Spirit Stones.

Even Hu Wuxin, as the Alliance Hierarch of the Taoist Cultivation World Sect Alliance, didn’t have many superior Spirit Veins to his name.

The already scarce superior Spirit Veins he had were plundered by the powerhouses of the Four-layered Sea Canyon.

The Spirit Veins in his ring now were all found in the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield after Ding Huan had saved him.

Obtaining a transcendent Spirit Vein now was enough for him to step into the Immortal Realm.

Mo Zheng was also thrilled. He too threw out dozens of Array Flags, and his Magical Treasure continued the bombardment.

Fifteen minutes later, he and Hu Wuxin similarly dragged out a transcendent Spirit Vein.

Before Mo Zheng could put the transcendent Spirit Vein into his ring, Hu Wuxin’s face changed:

"Lao Mo, people are coming, and they’re strong."

Mo Zheng also sensed the newcomers. There were at least three of them, each with a stronger cultivation than theirs.

"Let’s hurry and go. We can’t take the drum with us; we’ll tell Ding Huan later," urged Hu Wuxin.

Mo Zheng immediately stowed the Spirit Vein into his ring and produced a Teleportation Talisman.

"Leave the Spirit Vein behind, or die..." The stern rebuke came from far away before the people had even arrived.

This time, both Mo Zheng and Hu Wuxin could see clearly that there were three people approaching, all of them True God Realm powerhouses.

"Let’s go," Hu Wuxin activated the Teleportation Array Talisman.

Mo Zheng followed and activated his Teleportation Array Talisman.

Almost the moment their figures vanished, an attractive-looking man arrived where they had stood, reaching out to grab Mo Zheng’s afterimage.

"They’ve been teleported away. These two must have gotten top-grade spiritual veins," the two who followed expressed in a somewhat unwilling tone.

The duo that followed were a man and a woman, with the man possessing a somewhat plump figure and a baby face.

And the woman appeared as though she had stepped right out of a painting, her beauty indescribable.

A common characteristic of the three was that they all carried a long saber on their backs.

The handsome man who had first come up empty-handed said coldly,

"To dare snatch something right in front of us, heh, even if he dies in the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield, he won’t be able to carry it to hell."

When he said this, he didn’t even consider that it was they who were trying to snatch someone else’s possession.

In his eyes, anything he laid eyes on was his, and there was no question of stealing from others.

"Could this drum be the Iron Drum?" The chubby-faced man’s gaze fell on that drum.

"Yes, it is indeed the Iron Drum. Its value far exceeds that of top-grade spiritual veins," said the handsome man, his tone softening with certainty.

The beautiful woman sighed,

"Too bad, we cannot take this drum with us either."

"Why not?" the baby-faced man reflexively asked.

The woman spoke indifferently,

"This drum isn’t from this realm. I’ve seen it mentioned in ancient texts of our sect, it’s called the Three Sound Iron Drum."

"Such a vulgar name?" the chubby man asked, puzzled.

The handsome man spoke indifferently,

"A name is merely a label; it’s not important. Let me see if we can’t take this drum with us. If we really can’t, then we’ll pursue those two."

The man consecrated a series of array flags, quickly forming a moving array with them.

As the moving array took shape, the man led with a hand formation.

"Crack!" Some array flags were torn apart, but the rust-covered Iron Drum remained immobile.

"It’s true we can’t take it; we’ll go after those two insects. They won’t have gone far," the handsome man’s eyes were filled with intense murderous intent.

Not being able to take the Iron Drum was unfortunate, but they could not afford to lose the top-grade spiritual veins.

If he managed to obtain one, he was confident that he could ascend to the rank of an Immortal right here.

Once he set foot in the Immortal Realm, there would be a place for Gu Lianghui in the Ascension Realm.

...

"Lao Hu, are we just going to wait here for Ding Huan? Why do I feel like those three will come after us?" Mo Zheng said, somewhat uneasy.

Hu Wuxin spoke in a grave voice,

"It’s not a feeling; they’ll definitely come after us. Those three are probably from the Sky Saber Sect. If I’m not mistaken, they are among the ranks of the Ten Great True Gods in the Ascension Realm."

Mo Zheng had heard of the Ten Great True Gods, but he was not very familiar with them.

He knew that in the Ascension Realm, there were both Ten Great True Gods and Ten Great Immortals.

As for Earth Immortals, those who achieved Earth Immortal status were ready to enter the Immortal Realm - who would bother to concern themselves with any ranking of strength?

Hu Wuxin’s voice eased,

"The Sky Saber Sect is also a Great Sect in the Ascension Realm, ranked in the top five. What the Sky Saber Sect is most famous for is that it holds three spots among the Ten Great True Gods.

Moreover, these three have one more characteristic: they usually act together and rarely separate."

"What shall we do?" Mo Zheng’s unease grew.

If those three really were among the Ten Great True Gods of the Ascension Realm, plus Ding Huan, they would not be a match for the other side.

"I’ve already sent a message to Ding Huan. We’ll wait one more month. If Ding Huan doesn’t reply or come over after a month, then we’ll leave right away,"

Hu Wuxin declared firmly.

He figured that it would take those three a month to find this place at the very least.

So within a month, they were safe.

...

Ding Huan was frantically operating the Great Universe Technique.

He had a premonition that once he separated his twelfth star, his cultivation level would undergo a qualitative change.

But the twelfth star was too closely linked with the main star, and no matter how crazily Ding Huan tried to tear away the twelfth planet, it continuously orbited the main star.

The degree of connection was so intense that it simply couldn’t separate.

Ding Huan took a deep breath, knowing that his breakthrough was different from others.

Others just needed to locate the point restraining their cultivation and forcefully break through the barrier.

But his path was many times more difficult.

His advancement was based on the perfection level of his own Tao Universe.

No, this universe was his, a universe condensed from his own Great Dao.

He should be able to control his universe freely, absolutely unable to let a single star remain inseparable.

Logically, he should be able to consolidate if he wanted to and separate if he wished; that’s how it should be.

Thinking this, Ding Huan began modifying the already-established Cosmic Cycle while frantically operating the Great Universe Technique.

Any Cycle that prevented him from controlling the stars in his universe, even if it would increase his cultivation faster, he would reject.

His own Tao Universe must be under his complete control.

Otherwise, what was the use of this Cultivation Technique?
