"What?! 9,999? The hell are you on about? The Absolute Limit is the ''ABSOLUTE'' LIMIT! A thousand timesrger than a Supermassive is the limit known across the world of cultivation, not nearly ten thousand times that. That''s ridiculous. Of course, yours is…" The Heavenly War Spirit was even spewing out vulgarities, but this was merely a sign that the rtionship between Wei Wuyin and the Heavenly War Spirit, after nearly half a century of togetherness, had be closer.
"..." Wei Wuyin furrowed his brows.
"The One Star Era was defined by its single Sr Star that upied an entire Ster Region by itself, and its radiance could be felt by an entire Gctic Zone! Of course, it isn''t easy to reach the Absolute Limit, and even those at the upper-stages of the Mystic Ascendant Realm would have to make great sacrifices to reach it. Why else do you think it became harder to grow your Sr Star even with ten thousand Earthly Saints? Moreover, the need for a harmonized star is a little…difficult."
With his Elemental Heart Intent at the Apex level, Wei Wuyin could be considered a heaven-defying existence. While there have been numerous experts with Elemental Heart Intent in the world of cultivation, and Wei Wuyin was definitely not the first to conceive such a thought or have tried alternatives that could emte ''natural'' sr stars, the critical difference was that Wei Wuyin''s Elemental Heart Intent was ''Apex-level''. His Intent was formed from the Intent of nine other Apex-level Intents and merged into one, creating an unprecedented will that could create apex-grade Elemental Origin Essence.
Even Lin Ming, a Blessed, with the support and guidance of the Heavenly Daos, could only achieve a One-Apex Elemental Origin Intent.
Wei Wuyin''s frown deepened; he was sure that the Mortal Dao had created two Absolute Sr Stars nearly ten thousand times the estimated size of an Absolute Sr Star. It was imprinted on his very soul, so he definitely wasn''t wrong. There was likely a proper way to exceed this limit, but everyone probably tried brute forcing it instead of seeking the Mortal Dao''s permission or something of that line.
"Anyways! I fear that trying to bring out your World-Bound Star Domain will lead to a bacsh by the Mortal Dao, so please don''t unleash it." The Heavenly War Spirit pleaded sincerely. She was genuinely concerned that Wei Wuyin might try to manifest his World-Bound Star Domain and bring about Mortal Annihtion.
Wei Wuyin shook his head, "Have you forgotten where I just came from?"
"...what?" The Heavenly War Spirit was confused and then suddenly shook after being sted by a sudden burst of realization.
"If the Mortal Dao wanted to annihte me or the Neo-Dawn Defiant Star-"
"Little Defiant," Ori added from the side.
"...if it wanted to, I would''ve died in the Samsara of Stars. That is one of its greatest domains of influence. Moreover, it wouldn''t have sent me out. Not only did it not act against the Neo-Dawn Def-"
"Little Defiant!" Ori insisted from the side.
"...It didn''t act then, so it wouldn''t act now. That''s what I feel." Wei Wuyin stated firmly. Then, he thought for a long moment while the Heavenly War Spirit was stunned into contemtion.
"I should just ask," Wei Wuyin decided not to treat Little Defiant, uhm, the Neo-Dawn Defiant Star, as a lesser being unable to think for itself. He manifested his mental incarnation in his Mind''s Eye, a space he hadn''t visited for a long, long while. The thoughts of those chains still sent shivers down his spine. "Little…haaa…Little Defiant, if you don''t like that name, just tell me, and I''ll change it. But I must ask: Do you have a way around eradicating the entire Sealed Regions? I wanted to have a star to establish a base…"
The thought of making another star wouldn''t have the same meaning as his World-Bound Star Domain being positioned at the center of his base, which was paramount to establishing the greatest offensive and defensive protection while grasping total control over it. If impossible, he would simply have to choose a member of the Ascendants to use their World-Bound Star Domain instead or bring his base into a World Realm.
Neither choice was particrly good.
"..." Little Defiant''s sr res activity went silent. Then, from its depths, it began to emte the qualities of the Alpha Star as gorgeous multicolored lights manifested. These were Sr Stars! They were much smaller, dwarf-sized! They looked like glowing marbles next to a mountain that was Little Defiant.
But these lights didn''t simply manifest; they began to gather together until a much, muchrger star of a white color formed. Shortly after, a ming string of sr radiance attached itself to the white star and began to transmit the qualities of the Omega Star.
The star became a mixture of various white shades of light, making it look extremely strange. After a little while, as if trying to figure it out, Little Defiant belched out a burst of scintiting and fiery light that inundated the multi-white star whole!
Instantly, it exuded a silvery radiance!
It became a replica of Little Defiant!
Wei Wuyin felt a little disconnected from the replica, but his awe was ceaseless. He could feel Little Defiant''s answer in this star, and he felt a warmth permeate his heart. It seemed his thoughts were correct; this World-Bound Star of his was fundamentally different from those recorded in others'' journals and had a degree of intelligence and autonomy.
"Our family got bigger! Hehe!" Ori bluntly eximed without much thought. The happiness was so pure that it could touch the heart instantly.
Slowly, Wei Wuyin felt a strange connection with the replica, and his eyes bulged. With a thought, the replica was sent out of his Mind''s Eye, and like a World-Bound Star Domain, it manifested into the world!
Wei Wuyin''s eyes widened considerably as he spatially shifted out of its field of gravity, observing it from afar. A star exuding warm, silvery radiance had formed. Moreover, he could feel an intrinsic connection that was no different from a World-Bound Star Domain!
Wei Wuyin twisted his palm, and the rays of light that reached him distorted with utter ease. He didn''t have to exert any of his cultivation to do this, only a single thought!
"It''s smaller than Little Defiant''s original form, but everything else is exactly the same!" Even King was referring to the Neo-Dawn Defiant Star by its new name. Ori''s enthusiasm was unknowingly infectious and subtly thought-altering. Perhaps it was because King and Ori felt the closest to Little Defiant due to their cultivation aspects. Did they take Little Defiant as another child like Element?
That said, ny timesrger than an average Supermassive Sr Star! A full ten timesrger than the Aeternal Sky Star!
More importantly, it was fully harmonized! A natural sr star!
Little Defiant had done it!
The implications of this…
Wei Wuyin, however, immediately felt his heart pound as he realized something, observing the world around him for a brief moment. The region of Absolute Void had dissipated after the Mortal Dao sent him hurtling out!
The brilliance of this star was shining upon the entire Sealed Regions!
"..."
-----
Ster Nest.
The dazzling brilliance of a ''natural'' Sr Star stirred something within the depths of the ss-like surface, caged and sealed.
"Finally…they…finished…"
-----
Unbeknownst to Wei Wuyin, his innovative actions would inevitably bring about a great change and an even greater catastrophic cmity to the Grand Cyclic Ster Region.
And now, this great change and even greater catastrophic cmity were…
…inevitable.

Far, far away, Wu Baozhai was cultivating peacefully in a secluded chamber. Then, she felt her bloodline tremble.
Like her, millions of others across the Sealed Region felt a simr trembling feeling in their blood. It was inexplicable and unexinable, eliciting only confusion and dismissal. However, their senses caught a newfound source of light…
