That's an entire star falling!

The ultimate secret of the Ten Directions Creation Body is that it continuously increases its limit based on its own cultivation level. No matter how much it increases, there will eventually be a limit. Otherwise, it could have directly transformed into the Heavenly Dao before it sank.

The same applies to the Time Conch. Due to some unknown reasons, it cannot exert the same effect on Shen Qian as it did on Gao Zhe. It can only accelerate his physical body by a maximum of ten years.

Based on normal reasoning, it's hard to say whether over a decade of cultivation would be enough for him to achieve the Seven Forbidden Bodies.

In other words, if you use up all your cards before sinking, your fate might be similar to that of Zhu Yan... perishing together with the falling star.

Without the unexpected factor of the system, he would almost certainly have died this time.

The dangers involved were so great that the more I thought about it, the more frightened I became.

As for how to uncover the truth, of course it's... to capture Xu Nian!

The only two things in this whole incident that seemed to be caused by human intervention were: first, Ling Tianhou specifically asked him to go to the Southwest War Zone; and second, Xu Nian deliberately detonated the Star Scroll.

Since Ling Tianhou is temporarily unable to move, the only option left is to target Xu Nian.

Having identified his objective and sensing that his Yuan energy and physical body had almost fully recovered, Chen Qian did not linger. Just as he was about to pursue Xu Nian and the others in the direction they had fled, a thought suddenly struck him.

"It's hard to say that the Zhu Yan, an ancient ferocious beast, wouldn't leave behind some treasures. In other words, it was a treasure trove from the start..."

Shen Qian recalled that the Hundred Kings Palace Treasury contained many rare materials from high-level demonic beasts, and suddenly realized that he had almost missed out on many small goals.

He reached out and summoned a cold-faced young man who suddenly appeared in the sky; it was none other than Shen Qian's clone.

After the star impact, the barrier at the passage became weak, allowing Shenqian's clone to enter easily. Shenqian had already made contact with the clone as soon as he regained consciousness.

Out of caution, Chen Qian stepped aside and his clone went forward to explore the remaining dark flesh of Zhu Yan.

He was afraid that the vitality of the King-level creatures was too strong, and if they suddenly rose from the dead, only his clone, who was also a King-level creature, could easily resist them.

After a period of groping inside and out, a short while later, the clone emerged from Zhu Yan's ear, carrying a fleshy, tumor-like bead the size of a soccer ball that emitted a hazy glow.

Before sinking, I was both surprised and disappointed.

Disappointingly, Zhu Yan's physical body had been almost completely destroyed by the high temperature, and there were very few valuable things left. It seemed that the expected gains of many small goals had been lost.

Surprisingly, the fact that this tumor-like bead could survive the scorching heat of the star indicates that its value must be beyond imagination.

But... I don't know if this is what I want.

At this moment, the clone had quickly peeled away the necrotic flesh attached to the surface, and a round bead with eerie patterns and a faint blue light was fully revealed to the "two" people.
