X-Dragon Era

Moreover, asking someone else for something always feels a bit awkward, but Xin Yun is different. Over the years… Xin Yun doesn't even know how many magical artifacts he's given to everyone. Although they are all replicas, the habit has already formed. Now, no matter when it is, as long as someone asks, they can definitely get an artifact. By this time, everyone has grown accustomed to it.

In this way, although the artifacts are stored with Xin Yun, in reality, Xin Yun is like everyone's warehouse. There's no difference—anyone can take the artifacts whenever they need them, saving the trouble of worrying about preserving them.

After arranging everything, everyone dispersed once again. Yi Luo Xiang took the Meridian Cosmic Light Disk and the Diamond Fruit before immediately going into seclusion, aiming to reach Diamond Ten Stars as soon as possible, and then practicing the control of the Meridian Cosmic Light Disk. As for the outcome of the competition, that was not even a matter of suspense.

After everyone scattered, Xin Yun did not idle around. He went directly to the place where Yan Qingying was studying. Right now… the biggest issue lay with her. If, within the next year, she still can't grasp the principles of her new ability and New Combat Technique, it's going to be a significant problem. Although relying solely on magical artifacts may lead to victory, it would clearly not be convincing, and this would unquestionably be a major blemish.

Seeing Xin Yun suddenly arrive, Yan Qingying was very happy and sat down beside him. At the same time, Xin Yun spoke with concern: "Although I may not be able to help you much, I still want to know—where exactly did the problem arise? With your intelligence, you shouldn't have been stuck for this long!"

Faced with Xin Yun's inquiry, Yan Qingying gave a bitter smile and shook her head, saying: "Actually, it's nothing much. After reaching the Diamond rank, I understood the ability to weave webs and the Spider Silk Entanglement combat technique. But the problem now is… there are no tall trees in the sky!"

"This..." Upon hearing Yan Qingying's words, Xin Yun couldn't help but furrow his brow. While not all spiders can weave webs, there's no doubt that Yan Qingying's Phantom Spider has the ability to weave one. Moreover, this is precisely Yan Qingying's new ability and combat technique at the Diamond rank, and it's critically important.

But the current problem is that dragons fly in the skies, and there are no tall trees up there. So how can webs be woven? Around what should the spider web be anchored?

Yan Qingying had tried to anchor it to True Illusions, but the flying speed was too fast to maintain the formation. Moreover… once a Giant Dragon gets trapped in the web and starts struggling, True Illusions simply can't sustain it!

If only a single dragon was trapped, it would be somewhat better. But if seven or eight dragons of the same rank were caught at once, there would be no way to hold them. Even if they could hold, as long as someone destroyed the eight True Illusions, all efforts would be wasted!

Now, Yan Qingying's so-called solution essentially involves using the eight True Illusions to pull the web. However, there are numerous unresolved issues, leaving her trapped in this deadlock, facing problems that seem insurmountable!

Confronting Yan Qingying's dilemma, Xin Yun furrowed his brow tightly, quickly contemplating. Drawing upon observations from his previous life, Xin Yun swiftly dismissed Yan Qingying's current approach. Clearly… in his previous life, Yan Qingying's Heavenly Net wasn't supported by True Illusions.

Still, if it doesn't rely on True Illusions, then where should the web be anchored? Thinking carefully, it seems that the spider web was anchored in the void, but the exact location remains unknown.

After pondering for a long time, Xin Yun finally let out a long sigh and raised his head to look out the window. This place was Heaven's Bottlehead headquarters, and even looking up, the stars couldn't be seen.

Lost in thought, Xin Yun suddenly froze. Stars… That's right! How could I have forgotten about this? Could it be… Yan Qingying uses the Star Force to anchor her spider web?

With a wordless glance at Yan Qingying and then another at the sky outside the window, finally… Xin Yun shook his head with a bitter smile. It's really Xin Yun's fault this time—he had arranged the Cultivation Room here, where stars are invisible. Naturally, Yan Qingying never considered using Star Force to anchor the spider web in mid-air!

Once she successfully borrows Star Force, all the problems are solved. By anchoring the spider web to the stars, unless someone has the power to simultaneously drag eight planets, no one could move her spider web.

Thinking of this, Xin Yun wasted no time. Standing up quickly, he grabbed Yan Qingying's slender hand and activated the Tai Chi Diagram, transporting them to the ground level.

At this moment, it was exactly midnight. The sky was densely packed with twinkling constellations, an extravagant and dazzling display at its peak.

After a brief search, Xin Yun swiftly spotted his target and exclaimed excitedly: "Do you see it? That is the seven stars of the Northern Dipper! If you include the North Star, there are exactly eight stars. With that, your Heavenly Net finally has a place to anchor, doesn't it?"

"What?!" Upon hearing Xin Yun's words, Yan Qingying was startled at first but soon regained her composure. Yan Qingying's spider web happened to have eight main anchor threads, and the Northern Dipper stars plus the North Star totaled exactly eight stars. Naturally incorporating a formation, they were fiercely ominous yet subtly imbued with the Eight Trigrams Array, brimming with profound mystery.

Of course, the Northern Dipper's arrangement doesn't conform to the Eight Trigrams pattern. However, she only needs to borrow Star Force, not physically connect the spider silk to the stars. Thus… the specific arrangement doesn't matter; once Star Force is borrowed, it can be shaped in any configuration.
