Jiang Fan reviews his updated status panel after advancing to the first layer of Void Refining, noting his lifespan has surged to one million years and his proficiency in eighteen Immortal Realm Spirit Talismans has reached the proficient level, with the Heaven-Supporting Pillar Talisman at beginner stage. His cultivation progress stands at 58%, boosted by heavenly blessings from the recent Thunder Tribulation and prior opportunities in the Spirit Ruins Realm. Prompted by his artifacts, he decides to revisit the Void Secret Realm to claim the Taixu Hall and tame over a hundred Tier Five Demon Beasts for the Primordial Talisman Sect, arriving to find the hall's Spiritual Qi elevated to Tier Seven level amid its ancient restrictions.

"War Artifact?"

"Elder Fu, how exactly is it so powerful?"

Jiang Fan gazed curiously at the Primordial Talisman Pen.

"I don’t know its precise powers completely."

"Only after fully refining it will you discover them."

"Yet, based on what it achieved in the Ancient Era, it serves as a mobile flying palace."

"Furthermore, it enables instant teleportation, crossing through the Great Thousand Worlds."

"Additionally, its defenses are incredibly strong, able to endure strikes from Mahayana Cultivators."

"Within, it holds space for hundreds of millions of cultivators to battle over vast territories."

"Simply put, it functions as a war fortress."

The Primordial Talisman Pen explained in awe.

In the Ancient Era, numerous sects yearned to create such a flying palace.

Regrettably, none succeeded.

The required resources were enormous, demanding top-tier craftsmanship as well.

Legends claim that the Taixu Hall originates from the Immortal Realm as a flying palace.

Only Immortals possess the skill to craft it, far beyond what mortal cultivators can aspire to.

Thus, many factions gave up trying to replicate the Taixu Hall.

"So, the Taixu Hall truly stands out."

Jiang Fan nodded in agreement.

Without delay, he started the process of refining this flying palace.

Boom~~

Suddenly, a enigmatic force erupted from his form, delving straight into the Taixu Hall.

Despite the Taixu Hall’s protective barriers designed to block any cultivator’s refinement,

they proved no match for Jiang Fan.

This force swiftly accessed the innermost core of the Taixu Hall.

There lay a intricate and arcane core, covered in countless enigmatic runes that appeared forged from the laws of heaven and earth.

These runes layered upon each other, forming patterns as stunning as blooming flowers.

It resembled a supreme Dao Scripture.

Dong!

In the following instant, Jiang Fan felt he had successfully refined the Taixu Hall’s core, seizing full command over its ultimate authority. Before, he controlled just a minor fraction.

At last, he could truly harness this mighty artifact.

Naturally, this effort drained a significant number of his Luck Points.

Yet, the rewards made it entirely worth it.

A torrent of knowledge flooded into the core of Jiang Fan’s mind sea immediately.

All the secrets of the Taixu Hall now lay under his control.

[Immortal Artifact: Taixu Hall, (Damaged State)]

[Ability 1: Void Barrier - It forms nine layers of void barriers, sharply diminishing physical and soul assaults from foes. Anyone inside the palace remains safe from harm.]

[Ability 2: Void Passage - It races through the void’s depths at astonishing speeds, much like instant teleportation. It also offers some stealth, letting it vanish and emerge quietly in the void.]

[Ability 3: Infinite Energy - It absorbs void energy for fuel, eliminating the need for spirit stones or immortal stones to power the Taixu Hall. This energy even allows self-repair of its components.]

Upon reviewing this data, Jiang Fan rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

Without question, this proves to be a tremendously potent defensive treasure.

Once he activates the Taixu Hall and departs, he secures an invincible stance.

It’s no surprise it served as a weapon of war for the Taixu Sect long ago.

Indeed, it’s a colossal traveling palace brimming with infinite wonders.

"Still, to command the Taixu Hall at its peak, my cultivation level falls short right now."

"At minimum, reaching the Body Integration Realm, or perhaps the Mahayana Realm, is necessary to maneuver this treasure with ease."

Jiang Fan sighed with some disappointment.

But there was no way around it; the magical power needed to drive the Taixu Hall was overwhelmingly immense, surpassing his current limits.

He grasped why the Taixu Hall held such plentiful energy now.

This stemmed from one of its core functions.

By drawing in energy from the void’s depths, it gains boundless supplies.

It’s comparable to a Mahayana Cultivator or even an Immortal perpetually refining void energy, supplying tremendous power for those cultivating inside.

Therefore, even in a Land of No Spirits, the Taixu Hall could generate spirit veins.

Those inside it could experience conditions like a Grotto Heaven Blessed Land.

"Now that I’ve refined the Taixu Hall, it’s time to handle those Tier Five Demon Beasts in the Void Secret Realm first."

"If not, they’ll keep dominating the Void Secret Realm’s domains."

A chill glinted in Jiang Fan’s eyes.

...

One day passed.

Jiang Fan effortlessly conquered all the demon beasts throughout the Void Secret Realm.

Even the recalcitrant Tier Five Demon Beasts fell under his sway completely.

The regular demon beasts got bound by the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting.

They turned into spirit beasts residing in the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting.

Initially, these demon beasts attempted to fight back.

However, against the might of a Void Refining Cultivator, they resembled mere insects, completely unable to oppose him.

After a quick tally, he had tamed a total of one hundred and sixty-eight Tier Five Demon Beasts.

Clearly, during the last ten years, the Void Secret Realm had produced numerous Tier Five Demon Beasts.

This probably tied to the resurgence of spiritual energy.

The shifts in the world facilitated breakthroughs for demon beasts in the Void Secret Realm.

"Master."

Right then, each Tier Five Demon Beast bowed low to the ground.

Fanatic zeal shone in the depths of their eyes.

A peculiar swastika mark manifested on their foreheads.

Clearly, the Heaven-Transforming Staff Talisman’s conversion had turned them into loyal devotees.
