505: Method of Exploration

The Star Fragment Sea was located far from the Origin Realm; for an ordinary Dao Ancestor, it would take over half a year to cross the sea of stars and reach that place.

However, Li Qi had mastered the [Divine Travel Dao]. With just one or two teleports, he could cross an entire Star Domain and arrive at another.

After continuously teleporting and jumping through the starry sky for about ten days, Li Qi finally reached his destination.

The Star Fragment Sea!

Just as he arrived at the outskirts of this region, an endless expanse of fragments floating in the starry sky filled Li Qi's vision!

In the deep and lonely starry sky, the sight of so many floating fragments would be enough to trigger an immediate reaction in anyone with trypophobia.

A saintly core imprint was only the size of a fist. Trying to find it here... was no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.

Or rather... it was even more difficult than looking for a needle in a haystack.

Although the name Star Fragment Sea contained the word "sea," it wasn't actually a sea, but an entire Star Domain!

It was larger than any sea!

After seeing the Star Fragment Sea with his own eyes, Li Qi was shaken, and a sense of wonder welled up within him.

That Qiu Chuwen's luck was truly remarkable!

Not only did he find clues about the Sacred Throne in ancient texts, but he actually managed to find that tiny Sacred Throne within this vast and boundless Star Fragment Sea!

This luck was truly somewhat Heaven-Defying!

"So now the question is..."

"How am I supposed to find that thing?"

Qiu Chuwen had spent a hundred years here before finding the Sacred Throne, his footsteps covering every corner of the Star Fragment Sea. Li Qi didn't have that much time to waste here.

Furthermore, Li Qi could see that the difficulty of finding the Sacred Throne here lay not only in the vast ocean of fragments but also in the fact that the terrain... was constantly changing!

Fragments of all sizes floated in the starry sky, colliding and tumbling. Their directions of impact and trajectories were completely random.

Perhaps a fragment was here today, but there was no telling where it would fly off to tomorrow.

The terrain and distribution of fragments in the Star Fragment Sea... were different every day.

This undoubtedly made finding the Sacred Throne here even more difficult.

After a moment of contemplation, Li Qi's body jolted, and one figure after another appeared out of thin air within the Star Fragment Sea.

[Myriad Shadows Thousand Bodies]!

In one breath, Li Qi manifested over a thousand Clones and scattered them throughout the Star Fragment Sea. The efficiency of searching for the Sacred Throne... would be over a thousand times that of Qiu Chuwen.

But here was the problem: if over a thousand powerful experts at the Dao Ancestor level suddenly appeared in this godforsaken place, their overwhelming auras would surely attract a lot of attention.

Even a fool would know something was wrong here!

[Empty Body Dao]!

This was also one of the Three Thousand Great Daos mastered by Li Qi. A Cultivator who obtained this Dao could merge into the Void Realm, concealing their form and making it impossible for others to perceive or track them.

Over a thousand Clones simultaneously activated the [Empty Body Dao], and they all vanished instantly, leaving no trace.

Even if someone truly passed by the Star Fragment Sea, they wouldn't notice anything unusual.

Not to mention Dao Source Realm experts, even if a stronger Saint King passed through... Li Qi was confident he wouldn't be discovered.

Now that he had his laborers, what method should he use to find the Sacred Throne?

Searching the fragments one by one was clearly unsuitable; it was too slow and exhausting, not to mention foolish.

[Heavens Secret Dao]!

Li Qi and his many Clones immediately pinched their fingers, beginning to perform calculations...

The status of the Sacred Throne was lofty and its secrets were deeply veiled, making its location unpredictable. Thus, finding it was difficult, akin to searching for a pearl in a deep abyss.

Although the arts of deduction and divination can peer into the myriad phenomena of the world, regarding the location of the Sacred Throne, they are like blind men touching an elephant—unable to grasp the truth.

Therefore, ordinary techniques of divination and deduction are almost useless for searching for the Sacred Throne.

But Li Qi was different. The quality of the [Heavens Secret Dao] he mastered was extremely high, originating directly from the "Dao"!

It was already the world's supreme method of deduction and divination!

Furthermore, he had enhanced and raised it to the level of Major Achievement...

This way, it could still be somewhat effective.

Of course, it was impossible to find the Sacred Throne directly using this method. However, if the Saint King happened to appear within a thousand-foot radius while the [Heavens Secret Dao] was being used, it could be locked onto.

If it couldn't be calculated even at such a close distance... then the [Heavens Secret Dao] wouldn't be worthy of being called one of the Three Thousand Great Daos.

Next, all the Clones went into action, their figures scattered throughout the Star Fragment Sea. As the Clones moved around, they constantly performed calculations using the [Heavens Secret Dao]...

"If I still can't find it even with this... then it means the information was incorrect."

"There is no Sacred Throne here at all."

With everything arranged, the search for the Sacred Throne was left to the Clones; Li Qi's main body didn't need to worry about it.

He looked around, took a deep breath, and said slowly, "This is all I can do. Next..."

"Let's just wait for the flower to bloom."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qi's figure flashed and he dove into the depths of the Star Fragment Sea, vanishing without a trace...
