Chapter 1250 1244: The Expo Approaches

After its founding, the Neo-Dawn Starfield swiftly became the hottest topic of discussion among all levels of society through the Sealed Regions, especially among those of the Grand Cyclic Stellar Region. There were lavish rumors regarding its environment, deemed as the first true 'holy land' of cultivation, exceeding the Aeternal Sky Starfield since its inception. There were controversial topics such as the Imperial Clan and the Ascendant Emperor's relation, especially as the former's Empress was held as an 'honored guest' since the beginning.
The death of One Sword was particularly shocking, and there was an undercurrent of belief that the Aeternal Sky Starfield would invoke war against the Neo-Dawn Starfield. The issue, however, became apparent as there was news circulating that many of the forces in the Aeternal Sky Starfield were against labeling Wei Wuyin as a 'foreign entity' given his Mortal Sovereign Alchemist status or abstaining from involving themselves in the incident.
Arguments such as 'Jiang Jingshi provoked the Neo-Dawn Starfield of his own free will' or that 'the One Sword was seeking personal grievance and lost his life' were being flown around as if trying to diffuse the situation before it could escalate. Unfortunately, the Imperial Clan still seemed to be carrying out discussions to this day, causing many to wait with bated breaths.
Given that Empress Xiaocheng was still an 'honored guest' in the territory, this only exacerbated the issue. Some believed that should Wei Wuyin send the Empress back, the Imperial Clan might not pursue the situation. Others believed that the only reason why no one wanted to declare war against Wei Wuyin was solely due to the Empress' status as a guest.
Those who sat at the peak, watching from the side, couldn't help but wonder how the Imperial Clan could even think of fighting against Wei Wuyin when he had a geographical advantage with a near-peak Supermassive Solar Star and over ninety Earthly Saints officially under his command, including a terrifying Ancient Beast that could threaten a starfield's array by itself. Considering how Trueborn had likely conceded in their confrontation, they found this all quite shocking.
Only when they recalled the Aeternal Sky Divine Emperor's might did they grow invigorated on what might happen! Will the invincible figure that once swept the entire world reappear?
There were other happenings throughout the Sealed Regions, almost all related to the Neo-Dawn Starfield's founding. Notably, the fallout generated by the departure of the United Source Clear Palace of the United Source Starfield, the Inferno Solaris Church of the Hexaflame Starfield, and the Royal Clan of the Great Blue Starfield was chaotic and sudden.
Few saw it coming, as the relocation was done at a record-setting pace; they abandoned their starfields without a second thought and established themselves on the planets of the Neo-Dawn Starfield. The Born True Starfield had swallowed the Great Blue Starfield, so the chaos there wasn't heavy, and most of its loyal population and cultivated resources had migrated, so it wasn't a very difficult task or interesting topic.
However, the Hexaflame Starfield still possessed a prime location near the Aeternal Sky Starfield's Solar Star and could bask in its radiance at a much higher degree than the others, obtaining great benefits and producing startling cultivation environments. This became a heavily contested region as the other Earthly Saints, not a part of the Hexaflame Starfield, began to clash.
In fact, a full-blown war was initiated between three different forces!
The Volcanic Fist True King, who resigned from his position as a Grand Elder of his organization to assist the Tang Clan, had returned to join the war. It was quite shocking too. His cultivation base had undergone a slight change, with traces of a Nirvanic Flame Intent in his Mystic Power. When he returned, he swept the starfield with the remnants of the Tang Heihei's loyalists by his side.
In the eyes of outsiders, the defeated portion of the Tang Clan had submitted fully to the Volcanic Fist True King, but in reality, Bai Lin's servants were taking action!
The United Source Starfield experienced similar treatment as the Ravenous Edge Starfield, as the opportunists from all sides sent their forces to claim the resources left behind. However, a strange event occurred shortly after as the peak powerhouses of the stellar region abruptly decided to allow only juniors qualified to enter the Chosen King Competition to fight alongside overseers at the Mystic Star Phase, at most.
This caused the entire starfield to become a training ground for juniors, and various forces sent their young talents to participate. The Golden Life Pavilion had also moved to involve itself using the momentum by establishing a more inclusive event around the younger generation. They volunteered themselves to develop an event called the United Spirit Trials; they would leave behind certain resources on the planets, including various pieces of fortune here and there protected by certain obstacles and trials, all the while preparing to evacuate the inhabitants that didn't wish to be involved in the upcoming violence that would have likely taken their lives abd homes, while simultaneously inviting all those who could earn a token to enter.
If it weren't for the last condition, only the top-tier forces would be able to participate with their Chosen or younger generation! And if it weren't for their willingness to swear oaths not to take anything from the starfield, only adding things, the top-tier forces definitely wouldn't let the Golden Life Pavilion seize the starfield or open it to everyone!
Their actions were not only seen as extremely benevolent but also welcomed and well-received. The contesting forces allowed them to commandeer the starfield to set up the conditions, especially since the Golden Life Pavilion would not seek any payment or entry fees but simply acted for the betterment of the cultivation world and a healthy stage for competition.
Unfortunately, the Golden Life Pavilion announced that the United Spirit Trials would only start after the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Expo was completed. With this, the Chosen and prospective Chosen had a battlefield to clash on and train against their peers, but before then, they could gather to see what new products the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Sovereign was going to display!
The event added hype to both the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Expo and the Chosen King Competition. The United Source Starfield was bound to be observed by top-tier forces to see the level of other Chosen or potential dark horses. While only less than three years remained, this was bound to be the last event where Chosen of this generation cycle would be able to find great opportunities. How could they not take this seriously?
Since the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Expo's announcement, the entire world began to make travel plans. Most cultivators believed they wouldn't be able to enjoy the benefit of viewing the event, accepting their fates of only hearing news, but when the Golden Life Pavilion began to send out Voidships alongside affordable prices based on cultivation base, even discounts for families, the entire Grand Cyclic Stellar Region went into an uproar of shocked excitement!
While Wei Wuyin had declared an open invitation to all that came, how could they possibly expect the Golden Life Pavilion to do this? Not only were the losses sure to be absurdly high, so much so that they would undoubtedly lose tens of thousands of Mystic Stones of value by doing this, but the manpower needed would also be astronomical.
Not only was the Golden Life Pavilion establishing the United Source Trials meant to be the last proving grounds for Chosen, prospective Chosen, and talented juniors, but they were actively working to transport countless cultivators to the Neo-Dawn Starfield? All without any profits in sight? They weren't just being generous; they were essentially saints!
The Golden Life Pavilion's act of stepping up for the good of the cultivation world had revitalized its image, and all of this was attributed to the new(or old) Pavilion Master, Ma Zheng! During Sheng Jizi's leadership, the Golden Life Pavilion acted as the premier merchant organization, their philanthropic actions were severely limited, and certain opportunities, such as the Devil War Realm, were limited to the top-tier forces with outrageous paywalls.
It prevented those with talent but without resources and backing from participating!
Now, Pavilion Master Ma Zheng was showcasing that profits came in second compared to the people. The goodwill here was bound to pay dividends in the future, and the name of the Golden Life Pavilion was bound to be massive throughout the stellar region. Moreover, the transportation was fair and prevented any conflict from occurring. Some tried to stir some issues, but they were instantly put in their place.
No one had to fear their lives being threatened or harmed while traveling. Moreover, the greatest and most feared Evil Organization, the Sanguine Ghosts, were acting as silent and respectful overseers for the event. Their fair and dutiful manners began to slightly overturn the extremely prejudiced thoughts some people had for them.
Of course, it would be hard to disperse all their ill-reputation simply because they were dutiful guards, but the other Evil Organizations dared not even attempt to cause trouble. Moreover, Void Pirates and Void Hunters were overseeing routes, working together to ensure that the Dark Void had the most minimal amount of dangers, helping navigate through them.
While there were some mishaps and incidents, not a single one led to any Voidship destruction or a heavy loss of life. As for those who died in unexpected developments, the Golden Life Pavilion had openly announced their apologies, transparent about the circumstances, what they intend to do to ensure it happened to no one else, and the compensation they'll be giving the families and clans as a result of their unfortunate mistake.f𝔯𝒆𝑒we𝚋𝓃૦ν𝙚Ɩ. c૦m
Instantly, the Golden Life Pavilion's reputation reached an all-time peak! This was only exacerbated by them fully following through with their word, as no incident was alike. If they saw the issue, they solved it instantly!
A month after the Neo-Dawn Starfield's founding, those skeptical of the dangers began to travel on the last remaining available ships. This was the greatest wave of cultivators traveling, no longer fearful of the unknown and given the opportunity to travel across the stars!
The vast majority of ordinary cultivators at the Astral Core Realm or lower might have never have left their planet or World Realm in their entire lives, so this opportunity was heaven-sent. How could they not take this chance to explore the world? To see the Ascendant Emperor of Neo-Dawn that had changed the entire cultivation climate of their society?
There weren't just billions or trillions or quadrillions but quintillions of lives traveling toward the Neo-Dawn Starfields for the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Expo! The number greatly exceeded any event before it. Not even the King of Everlore's Alchemic Expo was remotely close to this!
-----
Within Boundless, the Voidship of the Boundless Martial Sect, and the largest known Voidship, Ma Zheng and Ma Sujiang were standing in the command center piloting the gargantuan Voidship through the Dark Void. Within its space were 99 Secret Realms, each of which carried billions of lives ranging from all walks of life. Entire cities were established and maintained, and cultivation environments were extremely generous.
There were Sanguine Ghosts, United Source Clear Palace members, and various Void Pirates that were maintaining order and function throughout each of the realms.
"Father, isn't this a little too much?"
