【"Reverse Engineering" cannot see the refining methods or blueprints because these items are not products of immortal cultivation.】
【They are merely things the Celestial Empress wore on her person every day while she was still alive.】
【Bathed in the power of the Celestial Emperor for countless years, even these everyday personal effects have become Supreme Treasures.】
【You step out of the tomb, holding these items in your hands.】
【"I recognize the red bib inside this dress set, it can block and counterattack any form of attack. Although it has its limits, it should be more than enough against anything below the Immortal Lord realm. But the other things..."】
【As for the other items, you have no idea what they do for now. You can only find some alien races to test them on later.】
【All-Knowing spots the items in your hands and gasps in shock.】
【"Could this be the cenotaph of Tianhuo Xuan Nu? Are these the relics of the Xuan Nu?"】
【"You certainly know quite a lot."】
【"I can't be wrong, I can't be wrong! That red long dress must be the Cloud Mist Feather Robe! Legend has it that when the Celestial Empress Xuan Nu wore this garment, no magic treasure could harm her body, no water or fire could touch her, evil spirits fled from her presence, and ghosts and monsters dared not approach!"】
【You weigh it in your hands.】
【"Nice item, but it feels like its effects overlap with the Primordial Chaos Armor. Besides, I'm not lacking in defensive capabilities. Maybe it has other functions."】
【The real reason is that you're trying to convince yourself not to wear this thing.】
【Imagine being in the middle of a serious fight, and suddenly you're wearing a flowing women's dress in such a dazzling shade of red. The enemies would probably die laughing on the spot.】
【Too embarrassing. Too socially mortifying.】
【"These boots must be the legendary Purple-Gold Cloud-Stepping Boots!"】
【"What's so special about them?"】
【"When the Celestial Maiden wore these boots, she could roam the heavens and earth, rise swiftly through the ranks, and condense the earth into inches!"】
【"Doesn't sound all that impressive."】
【With just that effect, you feel like there's no fundamental difference between these and the Lightning-Chasing, Thunder-Racing Boots.】
【So you just put them on to try them out.】
【"Don't feel anything special..."】
【But with just a light leap, you find yourself bouncing straight up into the clouds!】
【"Holy crap! This jumping power! And this is the Real Realm!"】
【You give a casual kick, and even though you're stepping on nothing but air, it feels like solid ground, generating propulsive force. Your body changes direction freely in mid-air, moving at an absurdly fast speed like a bolt of lightning!】
【"Oh yeah!! Awesome!! Now I don't need to consume divine power for flight at all. As long as I wear these boots, I can travel vast distances using about the same energy as walking, and at incredible speed!"】
【The Lightning-Chasing, Thunder-Racing Boots don't have this much thrust, nor can they achieve this level of agility without the body feeling any centrifugal force from turning.】
【The key point is, as a Spiritual Treasure, activating the Lightning-Chasing, Thunder-Racing Boots requires consuming immortal dao energy.】
【But these Celestial Emperor relics don't consume anything when used. They're even less tiring than walking on your own.】
【You fail to control your strength for a moment and blast straight out of the atmosphere!】
【The Cloud Mist Feather Robe automatically flies out of your Pot Heaven space and drapes itself over you.】
【"Hey, hey, I'm not wearing women's clothing, I'm not wearing it! Ugh!"】
【It seems you don't have a choice in the matter. The Cloud Mist Feather Robe is automatically protecting its master.】
【Because you've entered a vacuum environment, and your physical body cannot currently remain in a vacuum for extended periods.】
【After the Cloud Mist Feather Robe drapes over you, you can no longer feel the suffocation and cold of the vacuum. In fact, you feel warm and snug.】
【"Crossing space with just my physical body!"】
【This is a feat that only Immortal Kings should be able to accomplish, and you're doing it just by wearing a dress!】
【"Celestial Emperor relics are truly something else..."】
【You return to the surface, taking off the Cloud Mist Feather Robe before you land, terrified that someone might see you wearing women's clothing.】
【All-Knowing is still waiting at the original spot. Watching you shoot up to the heavens and dive back down, he's absolutely green with envy.】
【"I never expected you to have such intelligence, securing all these treasures ahead of time. Might you have any other information to share? I... I'd like a piece of the pie too..."】
【"Tell me more about the legends surrounding this crown and this mirror. If you do, maybe I'll be in a good mood and share a piece of information with you."】
【"Fine, fine, fine!"】
【All-Knowing babbles on, telling you all the legends he knows.】
【The legends might not be entirely accurate, but they give you ideas for developing these Celestial Emperor relics.】
【This mirror is called the Mystic Fire Divine Mirror, and the crown is named the Phoenix Cry Immortal Crown.】
【After All-Knowing finishes, you share a piece of information with him.】
【"There's a reclusive second-grade alchemist named Taige on Blazing Star. There's also a Supreme Treasure buried beneath his medicinal field."】
【All-Knowing's face contorts with difficulty.】
【"Really? For real?"】
【"For real. Think about it, if there wasn't something good underground providing nutrients, how else would his spirit plants grow so well?"】
【"That makes sense... it's just that I have a bit of a grudge with this Taige..."】
【Just then, your surroundings turn red.】
【This is your Divine Art "Traffic Light" automatically issuing a warning.】
【You release your Divine Sense, lock onto the incoming party, and the corners of your mouth curl up on their own.】
【"They came at a good time."】
【All-Knowing has no idea what's happening.】
【"What came at a good time?"】
【"You should get out of here now, so you don't get caught in the crossfire."】
【All-Knowing notices the massive dark clouds on the horizon. His mind works fast, and he immediately figures it out.】
【"When you took out those relics earlier, you caused such a huge phenomenon. You must have attracted other powerhouses."】
【Even as he speaks, All-Knowing transforms into a streak of green light, running faster than a rabbit.】
【Indeed, someone has arrived.】
【And not just someone. A whole group.】
【Si Duoduo, Dragon-Man, Tiansha Sect Master, Transcendent Realm powerhouse, known by the title Demon Sha True Lord.】
【As luck would have it, Sect Master Si was dozens of miles away today, fighting over territory with Ku Erdong, the Sect Master of the Feiyu Sect, another of Blazing Star's Three Major Sects.】
【When he detected the massive phenomenon shooting into the sky, Sect Master Si immediately pulled his ten Grand Elders out of the melee, abandoned his own disciples, and rushed over at top speed.】
【Poor Tiansha Sect disciples, caught holding the line against the enemy's top fighters, suffering miserably.】
【Si Duoduo is already at the Late Stage of the Transcendent Realm, and over half of the ten elders he brought are also Transcendent Realm cultivators, including some old monsters at the Late Stage of the Transcendent Realm.】
【If you hadn't obtained this pile of relics today, you might not have been able to win in a straight-up fight.】
【After all, this is different from the battle at Spearhead Valley on Lingwei Star. Last time, you struck first with a barrage of negative trait tags, fighting against a group of opponents loaded down with debuffs.】
【Today's enemies came prepared. Hitting them with your slingshot will be difficult.】
【The good news is, they're Dragon-Men.】
【Dragon. That's all you need.】
【"Human, that mirror in your hand looks a bit familiar. I believe it's something this Sect Master dropped here a few days ago. Why don't you hand it back to me right now?"】
【Black clouds churn around Si Duoduo. The dark clouds he releases carry the ten elders beside him, allowing them all to fly through the air.】
【Looking at Si Duoduo, and remembering the effect of the "Wide Wisdom Save Me" trait tag, a brilliant plan begins to brew in your mind.】
【"Looks like Blazing Star can be added to my collection too..."】
