Chapter 2732: Dreams Have Everything

When a supreme treasure gives birth to a sub-treasure, it sustains a certain degree of damage. While this damage might be minor, it still requires time to recover. Therefore, under normal circumstances, supreme treasures do not produce sub-treasures too frequently, and there's even a limit to their number without external interference.

However, the Creation Divine Cauldron, a unique supreme treasure, can exert this external force on other supreme treasures, a power inherent to itself. It had long ago developed its own intelligence, and its intellect was remarkably high, almost comparable to the Reincarnation Tree in Lu Ye's starfield. Although most other supreme treasures in the Titan Starfield had not developed intelligence, the Creation Divine Cauldron possessed the ability to communicate with them. Under its "persuasion," many supreme treasures in this starfield were willing to contribute their power to resist the Abyss's invasion. Consequently, over the past ten thousand years, numerous sub-treasures have been born in this starfield. Some supreme treasures even allowed themselves to be refined by the Titans to collectively defend against external enemies.

Chong Li's Purple Gold Heaven-Shattering Hammer was one such example. Although Chong Li was a Dao-integration cultivator, he couldn't refine this supreme treasure using only his own power. It required the cooperation of the Purple Gold Heaven-Shattering Hammer itself, along with the assistance of the Creation Divine Cauldron's power. Throughout the entire Titan Starfield, there were several other Dao-integration cultivators like Chong Li who controlled supreme treasures. Lu Ye listened with growing astonishment, increasingly convinced that the Creation Divine Cauldron was truly mysterious and unparalleled.

It could be said that the Creation Divine Cauldron was indispensable to the current situation of this starfield, allowing it to stand firm against the Abyss's invasion for ten millennia. Without it, this starfield would not have so many sub-treasures, nor as many cultivators above the Dao-entry realm, and certainly no supreme treasure wielders like Chong Li.

Undeniably, the Titan Starfield possessed immensely powerful foundational strength, but Lu Ye clearly understood that if they didn't quickly find a way to seal the Abyss Gate before them, the starfield's destruction would be unstoppable. This was because the Inner Realm contained too many powerful beings. Recalling it now, when Yun Shiwang became a sword slave and guarded the Abyss Gate for the starfield for thirty years without any external enemy invasions, a certain degree of luck was certainly involved. Although the supreme treasure's power was immense, Yun Shiwang couldn't fully unleash it. During those thirty years, if even one Cosmic-level city had discovered Yun Shiwang's whereabouts, it could have repelled him and subsequently invaded the starfield. Such good fortune might not befall this particular starfield.

Consider Chong Li, wielding the Purple Gold Heaven-Shattering Hammer – how much of its power could he truly unleash? Before entering this starfield, Lu Ye had sensed the supreme treasure's formidable might. However, Chong Li had to pay an enormous price to activate its power, making it difficult to sustain for long.

As time passed, Lu Ye and Ying Luo chatted casually, exchanging information. Chong Li's divine sense continuously lingered nearby, unhidden, which Lu Ye didn't mind. Chong Li likely wished to glean more information about the Inner Realm from him. However, the more he learned, the heavier his heart became. Before this, this starfield had only been resisting the Abyss's invasions from the Outer Realm, which had led them to believe that Abyss invasions were nothing more than that, and that the starfield would be safe as long as they found a way to resolve the issue of Abyss aura in the future. Yet, only now did they realize that the Abyss was not as simple as they had imagined. This invasion originating from the Inner Realm was the true test for their starfield.

External enemies continued to invade through the Abyss Gate, but none managed to cause significant trouble. Those Inner Realm cultivators who sensed the starfield's aura and ventured in likely never imagined how bizarre the situation in this Primordial Starfield was. Often, as soon as they appeared, they would be overwhelmed by countless attacks from all directions, their protective Dao power shattered, leading to their immediate demise.

Titans from this starfield also arrived continuously as reinforcements, and Lu Ye soon encountered two more supreme treasure masters here. Both were Titans over a hundred zhang tall, one male and one female. Not all supreme treasures were suitable for sealing the Abyss Gate. The female Titan named Qing Liu wielded a supreme treasure in the form of a bottle, called the Pure Glazed Bottle, which possessed extremely strong purification effects. This treasure's power was indeed highly suitable for repairing the Abyss Gate.

The three supreme treasure masters approached Lu Ye together, consulted with him, and finally decided that Qing Liu would use her supreme treasure's power to repair the Abyss Gate, while the other two would lead their forces to guard the area and eliminate all invading enemies. With the situation resolved, Lu Ye could finally depart. What fate awaited this starfield next would depend on their own efforts. However, he didn't foresee any major problems. When Lu Ye, as the Lord of Mount Fangcun, had sealed the Abyss Gate in the past, he hadn't encountered significant difficulties. Since Qing Liu was also a supreme treasure master, it shouldn't be too hard for her to use the supreme treasure's power to mend the starfield's flaws.

A few days later, two figures, one large and one small, traveled through the void, soon arriving before a wormhole. Just like in Lu Ye's home starfield, the Abyss's invasion had brought about immense changes throughout this starfield. The most apparent change was the sharp increase in the number of wormholes. This was likely a sign of spatial instability within the starfield. However, the emergence of numerous wormholes greatly facilitated cultivators' travel. Journeys that previously required long periods of travel could often be completed by simply traversing a few wormholes.

"Dao Brother, from here, we can quickly reach the Divine Venerable's location. Senior Brother Chong Li and the others have already sent word that the Divine Venerable is waiting for you there," said Ying Luo, who had accompanied Lu Ye all the way. The Divine Venerable she referred to was the supreme treasure, the Creation Divine Cauldron. Out of gratitude for its immense contributions to their starfield, all living beings in this starfield respectfully called it by that title.

After learning that this starfield possessed such a miraculous supreme treasure as the Creation Divine Cauldron, Lu Ye developed an intense interest and was eager to meet it. He later mentioned this to Chong Li and the other two supreme treasure masters. Fortunately, he didn't encounter much resistance, though Chong Li did state that whether they met or not wasn't up to them, but rather depended on the Creation Divine Cauldron's own will. Naturally, the outcome was as expected, leading to Lu Ye's current journey, with Ying Luo guiding him to this location.

"Thank you, Daoist," Lu Ye nodded slightly, then turned to face the wormhole before him. Without hesitation, he stepped inside. The sensation of spatial distortion washed over him. In the past, Lu Ye would certainly have felt some dizziness, but his current mastery of the Dao of Space was extraordinary, so these minor spatial shifts no longer affected him in the slightest. With a blur of vision, he emerged on the other side of the wormhole.

He looked around, his gaze quickly fixing on a certain direction. There was an exceptionally peculiar realm there, which at first glance resembled a colossal three-legged cauldron standing in the void, with four ears projecting from its sides. Before arriving here, he had asked Ying Luo how to find the Creation Divine Cauldron once they reached this place. Ying Luo simply said he would know after crossing the wormhole, so Lu Ye didn't ask further. By now, Lu Ye inwardly mused that Ying Luo's words were indeed true. There was no need to specifically search for anything; simply observing the cauldron-shaped realm was enough to know that the Creation Divine Cauldron must be somewhere within it. He leaped forward.

Before he even approached the cauldron-shaped realm, a peculiar divine sense extended from a certain direction. Lu Ye tilted his head to look, pondered for a moment, and then flew in the direction from which the divine sense originated. Moments later, on a spiritual peak within the cauldron-shaped realm, Lu Ye stared blankly at a beautiful and delicate young girl before him. The girl appeared to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, looking indistinguishable from a human. Her black hair was tied into numerous small braids, giving her a playful and adorable look. She was currently scrutinizing Lu Ye from head to toe.

Lu Ye's gaze lingered on one of her small braids. At the end of the braid, there was a tiny ornament that, in appearance, was identical to the shape of the cauldron-shaped realm, just reduced countless times in size.

"Divine Venerable?" Lu Ye looked at her, somewhat unsure. Ying Luo and Chong Li hadn't mentioned that the Creation Divine Cauldron looked like this. However, he indeed sensed a strong aura of a supreme treasure from that small cauldron pendant. The girl before him was likely just an external manifestation of the Creation Divine Cauldron, and the small cauldron pendant was its true form.

"Not much difference," the girl said, scrutinizing Lu Ye, "but you... are very strong!" Her appearance was exceptionally youthful, but her voice was incredibly ancient, like that of a dying old woman. Lu Ye surmised that the "difference" she spoke of referred to a comparison between him and previous cultivators who had invaded their starfield.

"Lu Ye of the Human Race greets the Divine Venerable!" Lu Ye, having confirmed her identity, respectfully bowed. After all, the other party was a supreme treasure, and one like Elder Tree, who had made immense efforts for the continuation of a starfield, thus deserving respect.

"They said you wish to see me," the Divine Venerable spoke. "Is there something you need?"

"Indeed, there is something I'd like to ask for your help with, Divine Venerable," Lu Ye nodded.

"Tell me about it," the Divine Venerable said noncommittally. She was willing to dedicate herself entirely to this starfield, but that didn't mean she was easily persuaded.

Upon hearing her tone, Lu Ye knew it was best to get straight to the point. He immediately said, "To inform the Divine Venerable, for certain reasons, I require a large quantity of sub-treasures. I wish to ask the Divine Venerable how I might acquire them."

"A large quantity..." The Divine Venerable frowned slightly. "How large?"

"Dozens, perhaps a hundred pieces!" Lu Ye slowly stated.

The Divine Venerable raised an eyebrow.

"Perhaps even more!"

The Divine Venerable's eyebrows lowered. She slowly said, "There is a way!"

Lu Ye's eyes lit up. He knew then that coming to the Creation Divine Cauldron was the right path. "Please enlighten me, Divine Venerable."

The Divine Venerable pointed her small hand in a certain direction: "Go in this direction, traverse five wormholes, and you will encounter a celestial wonder. Inside it is a supreme treasure called the Yellow Millet Mirror. Go find it."

Lu Ye mused, "What power does this Yellow Millet Mirror possess?"

The Divine Venerable looked at Lu Ye expressionlessly: "It can allow you to easily enter a dream. In the dream, you can have anything."

Lu Ye's eye twitched. "Divine Venerable, please don't jest."

"I'm not jesting," the Divine Venerable replied, still expressionless. "You ask for dozens, even a hundred sub-treasures right away. Where would one get those? This starfield, after accumulating for so many years, only has a little over two hundred sub-treasures. Do you truly believe sub-treasures are that easy to condense?"
