Chapter 1732: Emergency Construction, One-Time Spirit Ark
Chu Jia explained her method to everyone.
Although the method was not perfect, it indeed seemed capable of preserving the essence of the mini Spirit Lyric World and the survivors of the Spirit Lyric World to the greatest extent possible under the current circumstances.
Gu Mingzhen's expression fluctuated violently as he listened. He understood that if that method were implemented, many of the Spirit Lyric World survivors, including several cultivators, would become sacrificed.
However, he was also acutely aware that everyone present, from Shang Xia's Origin Star Avatar, was determined to obtain the mini Spirit Lyric World.
He could try to secure the best possible benefits for the Spirit Lyric World survivors, but he absolutely could not show even a hint of opposition to their plan.
Thus, after Chu Jia finished explaining her method and while everyone was still silently pondering and digesting her proposal, Gu Mingzhen was the first to speak. "I agree with Grandmaster Chu’s plan and will cooperate with her in every possible way."
Aside from Shang Xia's Origin Star Avatar, the other members of the institution were somewhat surprised to hear Gu Mingzhen's agreement. However, they soon admired his proactive stance.
Song Zhen was the next to speak. "But Hall Master Chu’s plan is still based on us having an Ark. The question comes back to how we can obtain enough Hollow Heaven Stone to build a Spirit Ark."
However, before Song Zhen could finish, Chu Jia interjected: "Perhaps we don’t need the Hollow Heaven Stone to create a Spirit Ark!"
Chu Jia hadn’t finished her sentence when everyone's gaze shifted to her, their eyes shimmering with an unusual light.
"Why are you all looking at me like that?" Chu Jia said, slightly annoyed. "Don’t you believe me?"
Everyone looked at each other, and for a moment, no one dared to speak first.
Finally, Shang Xia's Origin Star Avatar asked, "What do you plan to do?"
Chu Jia replied, "It’s simple. We can set up a Five Element Formation in the Ark to simulate the Five Elements Void Art. Then, you personally perform your World Establishing Art. This should be sufficient to create a space within the Ark that can temporarily accommodate an Elysium."
Shang Xia's Origin Star Avatar instinctively looked at Hai Yuanyuan, who giggled sheepishly.
Both the Five Element Void Art and the World Establishing Art were unique secrets of Shang Xia. Although Chu Jia, being very close to him, was aware of the existence of those techniques, she did not understand their real capabilities. Hai Yuanyuan, his true successor, was the only one who knew everything.
Of course, everything was based on Chu Jia's profound research in the Five Element Formation.
Shang Xia's Origin Star Avatar thought for a moment before he spoke again. "Even if the formation you set up can support my World Establishing Art, even if you compress the mini Spirit Lyric World to an Elysium, would still be among the most superior ranks. How long do you think such temporary measures can last? Especially during the traversal of the Star Curtain... We will definitely face the impact of chaotic storms, which demand even greater stability in the Ark's internal space."
Chu Jia brought out her Five Elements Ring and sighed, "I have this. At worst, I can sacrifice this Divine Artifact to withstand the effects of the chaotic storms.”
Shang Xia's Origin Star Avatar raised an eyebrow. "Are you willing to part with it?"
Chu Jia caressed the ring and chuckled, "If it comes to that, you can just make me another Five Elements Ring later. Besides, if we can return most of the essence of the mini Spirit Lyric World to our world, we’ll earn a lot more than a Divine Artifact."
Youshang instinctively asked, "Is there anything else?"
Without needing Chu Jia to respond, Shang Xia's Origin Star Avatar said, "That Ark will probably also be scrapped, right?"
Chu Jia nodded. "My formation skills can only sustain the formation's at the sixth rank at most. To support an Elysium containing some characteristics of a world requires the assistance of Seventh Order energy."
Shang Xia's Origin Star Avatar also explained, "The essence of an Elysium is secondary for our world. The Spirit Lyric World failed at the final stage of ascending to an Essence World, and it’s the most pristine part of its essence, fully endowed with the characteristics of an Essence World, is what we really need. Unfortunately, this part cannot be continued by a Spirit Ark.”
He further added, "A Spirit Ark can only carry world fragments from worlds beneath Essence Worlds. That is what makes it a Spirit Ark.”
Youshang frowned. "So, does this mean there are different grades of Hollow Heaven Stones?"
Shang Xia's Origin Star Avatar affirmed, "Of course!"
With the plan settled, not only the members of the Tongyou Institution, but also the surviving cultivators within the mini Spirit Lyric World were mobilized. Under Chu Jia's direction, they began the final upgrade of the Ark within the mini Spirit Lyric World.
With Gu Mingzhen's intervention, a large amount of material resources within the mini Spirit Lyric World were contributed, and even several rank four Formation Grandmasters among the survivors participated in setting up the Five Element Formation within the Ark.
Outside the mini Spirit Lyric World, the Star Ship of the institution, loaded with resources scavenged from the world ruins, had also sent all usable resources into the mini Spirit Lyric World.
Even though they were just setting up a temporary formation this time, the enormous resource supply allowed Chu Jia and the other Formation Grandmasters to work day and night. It took them nearly a month to complete the Ark's reconstruction. n𝚘vp𝚞𝚋.com
Yet, the Ark they made was still far from being a real Ark. When Song Zhen and others steered it out, Shang Xia's Origin Star Avatar alone entered the Ark's interior with everyone staring with bared breaths.
Accompanied by barely perceptible fluctuations in the void, Shang Xia's Origin Star Avatar carefully controlled the Ark and unleashed his World Establishing Art, finally creating a highly stable secret space within the Ark.
Thus, the unconventional Ark had completed half its purpose.
The remaining half would depend on whether it could bear the compressed mini Spirit Lyric World and withstand the tests of chaotic storms when they traversed the Star Curtain.
