Chapter 1097: Using the Divination Orb Again
Editor: Henyee Translations

With the various sects’ immortal treasures suppressing the calamity, the situation had somewhat stabilized.

However, there was no trace of relief on Jiang Chengxuan’s face. Ever since the celestial calamity began, an inexplicable sense of urgency had been gnawing at him.

It was as if the heavens were warning him that the emergence of the immortal treasures had not changed the ultimate outcome of the celestial calamity.

If they did not take further action, the destruction of the Floodgate Realm would remain unavoidable.

Immediately, Jiang Chengxuan shared this insight with Qin Shenwu and the others.

At this moment, within the Shenwu Hall, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Qin Shenwu all wore grave expressions.

Jiang Chengxuan’s revelation made it clear that the celestial calamity had not yet seen a turning point.

“Chengxuan, do you have any suggestions? No matter what they are, I believe all the sects will support them now,” Qin Shenwu said earnestly.

“Indeed, my husband, you are not alone in this. The entire Floodgate Realm is your strength,” Shen Ruyan added, reminding him that the celestial calamity was not a problem to be faced alone.

“I believe our only option now is to recreate the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Array to conduct a divination and find a solution,” Jiang Chengxuan proposed after some contemplation.

“But the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Array requires a hundred years to construct. Given our current situation…” Qin Shenwu responded, his brows furrowed in concern.

“After deciphering the Heaven-Severing Celestial Array, I have a method to create a smaller version of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Array. However, I will still need the support and resources from all the sects,” Jiang Chengxuan explained, offering a glimmer of hope.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Great! What are we waiting for? I will contact the other sects immediately and gather the necessary resources as quickly as possible,” Qin Shenwu said with renewed determination, standing up with resolve.

Soon, messages bearing Qin Shenwu’s name were dispatched from the Haoran Sect, reaching the leaders of the various sects.

This time, the unity among the sects exceeded Jiang Chengxuan’s expectations.

The day after the messages were sent, replies began to arrive.

Within seven days, all the materials listed by Jiang Chengxuan had been gathered.

These resources, sourced from all corners of the Floodgate Realm, had been collected with remarkable speed, demonstrating the unprecedented coordination among the sects.

Even Jiang Chengxuan, with his resolute mindset, was astounded by the sight of the countless storage rings before him.

The looming calamity had driven the sects to put aside all grudges and fully commit to overcoming the disaster.

“Since they’ve shown such dedication, I must not disappoint them,” Jiang Chengxuan murmured to Shen Ruyan, his resolve rekindled.

The scene of unity and determination deeply moved him, reigniting the fire within his heart. After enduring numerous setbacks, Jiang Chengxuan’s determination was once again aflame.

Back at the Haoran Sect’s array site, Jiang Chengxuan brought the resources and treasures provided by the sects.

The site, still imbued with residual energies from the previous heavenly tribulation that had shattered the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Array, was the optimal location for setting up the new array.

With the manifestation of his Five Elements Dao, Jiang Chengxuan began constructing a high platform. He meticulously processed the resources, inscribing array runes on some, grinding others into powder, and combining them into various materials with practiced skill.

As his hands danced through the air, the materials were swiftly prepared and embedded according to specific array patterns.

This version of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Array had been modified by Jiang Chengxuan, requiring far less time to construct.

Utilizing the remnants of the previous array, he completed a smaller version of the Mysterious Heavenly Dao Array within a few days.

The information gleaned from the Heaven-Severing Celestial Array had proven invaluable, elevating Jiang Chengxuan’s mastery of arrays to an unprecedented level.

However, there was no time to dwell on this now. Clearing his mind of distractions, Jiang Chengxuan sat cross-legged at the center of the array and activated it without hesitation.

Instantly, countless threads of divination power rose from the array, pulling strands of fate and destiny into its web.

Jiang Chengxuan’s consciousness entered the realm of divination, but before him, a dense fog of uncertainty still obstructed the paths of cause and effect.

It was clear that even with the augmented power of the smaller Mysterious Heavenly Dao Array, the celestial calamity remained impenetrable.

Yet Jiang Chengxuan had anticipated this. Under Shen Ruyan’s vigilant watch, a half-ethereal, half-solid orb materialized in Jiang Chengxuan’s hand, which then merged into his body in a flash of radiant light.

In an instant, an overwhelming surge of divination power erupted within him, unrelenting and vast. The orb he had absorbed was the Divination Orb, a reward from the system, now unleashing its formidable power.

Under the dominion of the Divination Orb, the divination power became a sharp, invisible blade, slicing through the obscuring fog of fate and revealing the hidden truths beyond.

“Boom!”

An influx of countless images surged into Jiang Chengxuan’s mind like a tidal wave.

He saw a blood-red sea, with massive waves crashing and colossal sea beasts fighting, their corpses piling up like small islands. He saw the depths of the Eastern Sea growing darker and more chaotic under the shadow of the black sun.

In the unseen depths, something was resonating, stirring the entire Eastern Sea into unrest.

“Not enough… Break through for me!” Jiang Chengxuan roared internally, channeling all his divination power to shatter the remaining darkness and confusion.

The hidden truths finally revealed themselves. Gigantic chains, larger than abysses, swayed and clashed within the chaos, producing terrifying reverberations.

These chains, inscribed with fading seals, were the source of the deep, mysterious energy leaking from the seabed.

No one knew what lay beneath, but Jiang Chengxuan realized that whatever it was, it posed a threat potentially more dangerous than the celestial calamity itself.
