Paragon Of Sin-Novel

RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE!

"What's happening?!" Exclamations resounded as these Ascended beings were taken aback by the sudden shaking of the world. Their sense of balance and direction began to destabilize, and a few even tumbled embarrassingly through the Dark Void in a haphazard manner. Of course, those Earthly Saints established their Mystic Wards and remained largely unaffected. Still, not one of them lacked a significant change to their expression in some way. 

From shock to confusion to being aghast, they observed the Neo-Dawn Starfield with varied emotions and shifting feelings. From beginning to end, they had been blocked from entering the former Heptasage Pillar Stellar Region's territory by the silver-eyed Alchemic Sovereign, and just the attempt to bring the slightest harm led to the death of the legendary 'One Sword'. Everything had been happening too fast for them to properly digest, so many were stunned into an observer's mode. 

"There are spatial fluctuations throughout the region!" A few Earthly Saints remarked as their eyes exuded a silver light, executing unique Spatial-type Ocular Spells to better grasp the situation. Seeing the growing ripples forming, a few cautious Earthly Saints hurriedly grabbed their weaker companions and retreated decisively. 

Ma Zheng's eyes brightened considerably, "So that's why!" He had wondered why Wei Wuyin had set up a defensive perimeter, preventing anyone from approaching. It was mistaken as him being unwilling to allow anyone into his newly declared territory, but that shouldn't be the case. The former stellar region was as desolate and abandoned as could be, consisting of rogue planets, shattered debris, fragmented and dilapidated realm ruins, and fractured regions that generated all sorts of strange celestial phenomena.

Only now did Ma Zheng realize what was happening as it began to unfold! 

Firstly, the spatial ripples were like world-seeking trash compactors and street cleaners. When they found uninhabited masses, be it scattered debris or rogue planets, they were sucked into a previously established realm, likely an empty, isolated realm resembling a Shell Pearl World's independent space. 

If the Ascended beings present had entered the territory, they would've been swept within and likely experienced an unbearable degree of pressure, crushing them to an extremely uncomfortable extent or sending them through a dangerous tunneled space. They would have resisted and destroyed the channels to the unique space, preventing the clean-up or outright causing extreme chaos.

"Amazing!" Ma Zheng exclaimed at how wide-range and miraculous this unique array was! Due to the vast space, even Earthly Saints would find it difficult and a long, arduous task to clean it up. It could take decades, perhaps even centuries, to effectively do so. This was largely due to the quantity of Mystic Power required. While it might seem that Ascended beings could exist perpetually in the Dark Void without any expenditure of power, that wasn't the case. It was simply an extraordinarily insignificant amount in comparison to a casual strike.

Secondly, his spell-enhanced eyes and Nexus Spatial Mystic Soul's improved Spatial Sense discovered that the Realms left to their ruin or degradation by the previous eras began to be moved! The movement of a realm was extremely, absurdly, and outrageously difficult. If moving a planet was difficult, then trying to move a realm was roughly a hundred times more difficult. 

But as he watched the spatial ripples resonate, his heart pounded as he realized they weren't just being moved. They were being fused! 

"Is he…" Ma Zheng was outright stunned, yet the excitement in his eyes was undeniably present.

"He's combining the scattered realms into a Realm Region!" The Soul Saint King said with disbelief in his tone. This was one of the top three Earthly Saints of the Grand Cyclic Stellar Regions, and he was shocked! Not even Jiang Jingshi's death was enough to change his expression, but this had done so drastically! 

Yue Lixiang, Faye Liying, and the other Soul Monarchs were all shaken beside him. 

"Realm Region?" The Soul Waking Saint was astonished yet also confused. She felt that it was impressive, but she couldn't quite grasp why. 

"..." The Soul Saint King's expression became dignified, his eyes exuded a mixture of spatial and spiritual light. The scene of realms hidden from plain sight moving towards each other as if attracted by a magnet was hard to describe yet incredibly miraculous to witness! "A Realm Region is, in its simplest explanation, a massive World Realm. In a way, it bears a remarkable resemblance to a Stellar Region with multiple independent Starfields."

"Oh?" The Soul Waking Saint was instantly intrigued by the explanation. She wanted to delve more into it, but Yue Lixiang interrupted her by elaborating: "The Endless Prosperity Domain is essentially a Realm Region."

"Oh!" Just from that, the Soul Waking Saint understood, and the awe in her eyes exploded. The Endless Prosperity Domain had only a few perfunctory planets, but it was mostly a series of highly interconnected World Realms and Secret Realms tethered by Void Gates. Tuo Bihan had once traveled through that dense network of realms to the Grand Horse Realm, the Ma Clan's main World Realm.

Only an expert like Ma Zheng, one of the foremost experts of Spatial Arts within the Aeternal Sky Starfield, alongside the sufficient resources provided by the profits of the Golden Life Pavilion, could hope to create something like that! It was profoundly impressive and, most importantly—expensive! 

"No wonder…" The Boundless Martial High King softly muttered as he observed the scene unfold. It was clear that this gigantic star wasn't random, and it was highly likely that Wei Wuyin's hidden force had been preparing it for a long, long time! It might have been a remnant of the past eras, but it certainly had been claimed by Wei Wuyin to establish a new, brilliant starfield.

The Born True Starfield was established on this premise as well. They linked the four starfields, avoiding the Great Blue Starfield due to the involvement of Wei Wuyin, the Golden Life Pavilion, and whoever else backed Wei Wuyin. They simply wanted to avoid a fight. Yet they had still connected the four starfields into one, a feat of tremendous cost, planning, and effort. 

Empress Xiaocheng's eyes couldn't help but brighten. This development had similarly piqued her interest. She glanced at Wei Wuyin's Incarnation, who maintained a faint curl of his lips, certainly a satisfied smile, and calmly hovered by the Sky Destroyer.

This youth…was not simple. There was a little doubt in her heart as she thought of their paths thus far, and she couldn't help but feel a little uncertain if she was making the right decisions. But when a figure with navy blue hair flashed in her mind, her eyes were overwhelmed by warmth, fear, and resolve, and her doubt was wiped away. 

Wei Wuyin noticed the faint emotional changes in the Empress, and he looked at her and noticed that she was holding her lower abdomen while absentmindedly thinking. Was she inspecting her cultivation base? Wei Wuyin decided to keep a lookout for any unexpected variables she might introduce. If she acted in any way, he wouldn't be merciful to the Number ONE Beauty of the Aeternal Sky Starfield. 

The scattered realms began to gather in the background while the ripples swept across the physical space and sucked in any debris, rogue planet, or other strange objects that weren't previously tagged by Wei Wuyin to remain untouched. 

A process that took decades of planning was unfolding! 

Within three whole minutes, the entire Neo-Dawn Starfield's newly defined territory could be seen as it was thoroughly cleaned up! The blankness of the territory, excluding the radiance of Baby Defiant, gave it remarkable similarity to Void-Blank Space. Now it was like a blank canvas, waiting for the stroke of a masterful artist. 

"Woah!" By this point, even the four who submitted couldn't keep their heads bowed, and they looked at the strange, breathtaking beauty of emptiness. A trace of excitement flared within their eyes. They knew that this was a prelude to a great future, and as the first to submit, they would definitely be given certain astonishing benefits! 

The others were too slow to do so, unable to calculate the changes correctly, or too immersed in their pride to give up a little of their autonomy. Since the Imperial Clan's oath-ridden society formed, which of these forces hadn't enjoyed an abundant degree of freedom without the threat of death or another Dark Stars Era? It was hard to kneel after thousands of years of personal, territory-limited supremacy alongside the echo chamber of their expert status.

Simply fools.

The flag-bearing Wei Wuyin's smile was full and bright, filled with a trace of mad excitement as he lifted the flag! A gush of silver light roared, and Baby Defiant's radiance increased intensely! The brilliance was so terrifying that the Ascended beings present had to cover their eyes!

Wei Wuyin resisted the urge to laugh joyfully, trying to maintain a dignified bearing, as he slammed the bottom of the flag into space. He shouted:

"EXODUS!" 

A single word swept across the entire world!

In the blink of an eye, a burst of profound spatial light erupted for millions upon millions of miles as the concealed spatial pillars scattered across the Neo-Dawn Starfield began to emerge, flashing vigorously, and then…

The process was oddly silent. 

From all over, tiny, small, large, and titanic-sized planets warped into existence. They were scattered about but in an orderly way, and they began to spin on their axis, following an orbit almost immediately! 

There were 49 planets! 

Accompanying some of these planets were Lunar Satellites! A total of 81! 

The planet formerly known as New Everlore, soon to be renamed Eternal Dawn, was present amidst the newly arrived planets! It was positioned in a good location, the closest yet safest from the radiance of Baby Defiant! From now on, it'll receive the greatest degree of solar essence compared to any other planet! 

Abyssal Dawn! 

It was also present.

If one looked closely, one would be stunned. 

"Is that…the Elven Sanctuary's four Moons!" An Earthly Saint exclaimed in disbelief. The four Elven Sanctuary Moons were Aqua Moon, Woodland Moon, Blazing Moon, and Grey Moon, which respectively housed the Sacred Aquatic Palace, Sacred Forest Palace, Sacred Volcanic Palace, and Sacred Desert Palace! They were the peak-tier Elven-ruled forces!

"The planet too! Oh my heavens! He moved…the entire Elven Sanctuary here?!" The Sacred Radiance Palace's Exalted Elves and the sole planet of the Elven Sanctuary was present as well! 

While the Everlore Association didn't enslave the Elven Sanctuary, they had housed them for a long, long time, thousands of years in fact, and kept them safe from the harshness of the outside world. Of course, this 'protection' was also a form of restraint. They could not truly be free, existing and thriving exclusively in the Elven Sanctuary. If an elf tried to strive to establish a power outside, they would be besieged and destroyed in a short period, while the brave young talents were often prejudiced against and ridiculed for their inferiority.

In actuality, it was a prison more than a safe zone. It limited their ability to cultivate and grow, with limited resources, limited area, and limited influence. 

Yet the shock didn't stop there as several familiar and unfamiliar planets began to blip into view. They didn't have time to inspect each and every one of them, but their environment and existence were all heart-shaking! Some of them had dragons grazing the world, mountains, plains, oceans, and more. There were countless beasts of all sorts with their own territory on the planet and their own ecosystem.

This was an extremely rare sight! In the Grand Cyclic Stellar Region, beasts were food or pets, and they were reared or bred for battle, travel, or transporting luggage, not to be truly and genuinely wild or free. There wasn't a single sight like this anywhere else! 

It was a little strange, too, because one of the planets had odd nests and mountains that seemed to have entire societies of dragons! They resemble humans! While it wasn't a direct comparison, they were gathered into tribes, conducted trades of resources between each other, or simply stayed together in large-sized archaic constructs like cities.

Fascinating!

Above Eternal Dawn, a regal figure stood at the edge of its atmosphere with their arms folded, their eyes emitting endless starry light, and a glow of manic excitement was raging similarly in their eyes. Wu Yu! The Grand Knight had arrived alongside the new planet! 

"Finally!" He said, taking a deep breath. The enriched solar essence was euphoric. This starfield was bound to grant untold, indescribable benefits to the lifeforms here. Genesis Beasts would no longer be a rarity.

While he had lived in a world where dragons roamed free, before the King of Everlore's rise, or the Divine King's genocidal act, the two species, beasts and humanoids, lived in a balance of hunting, fighting, and consumption that was relatively healthy for both sides. They had such a particular harmony that beastmen were born as a result, as humans, elves, and demons sought out their fantastical power. 

The Exodus had finished—just like that!

49 Planets, 81 Moons, and 1 Solar Star! 

If one counted all celestial bodies, then the Myriad Yore Continent hung around Wei Wuyin's neck would add one Continental Flat Earth! 

"Neo-Dawn Starfield!" Wei Wuyin roared as he slammed the flag once again, causing ripples to flow across the entire space, outlining the territory and borders of the Neo-Dawn Starfield. 

Today was the birth of his first territory, the home he would establish with his own two hands.
