It seemed as if the two sides had already become one, reaching the level of Unity of Man and Artifact.
Rumble~~~
In an instant, this magical treasure immediately revived. The countless lines on this painting seemed to come to life, and countless spirit beasts and exotic beasts within roared, as a wave of sound swept in all directions, causing the entire Secret Realm World to tremble and emit a buzzing sound.
Soon after, the originally open Secret Realm Gate also closed instantly at this moment.
In this way, no one else could enter this Secret Realm World anymore.
"I see, this is the Top-grade Celestial Spiritual Treasure—Ten Thousand Beasts Painting."
Jiang Fan received a massive influx of information from this magical treasure and immediately understood what it truly was.
Evidently, the level of this magical treasure was no less than the Primordial Talisman Pen.
Presumably, during the Ancient Era, it must have been famous and contained immense power.
"No way, was it refined just like that?"
Seeing this scene, the Demon-Vibrating Bell was dumbfounded, staring blankly.
It had no idea what had just happened.
The Celestial Spiritual Treasure was clearly in a dormant state.
Normally, it would be impossible to earn its recognition.
But the owner, somehow, effortlessly refined the treasure.
It was simply taking advantage of the treasure’s slumber and forced it into submission.
It seemed that it was also forcefully claimed in this way.
"Hah, what kind of person is the master? Refining a Celestial Spiritual Treasure is nothing."
"Did you really think you were an Immortal Artifact?"
The Ten Thousand Transformations Pill Furnace said disdainfully.
It considered this a matter of course, not a big deal at all.
"This."
Upon hearing this, the Demon-Vibrating Bell, Exquisite Tower, and Taiyi Five Smoke Net were all infuriated, itching to give this fellow a beating for being so obsequious.
"I remember now."
"This should be the Sect Treasure of the Ancient Sect, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect—Ten Thousand Beasts Painting."
"I didn’t expect this ancient sect to have perished as well."
"Even the Sect Treasure was left here."
At this moment, the Primordial Talisman Pen seemed to recall something and immediately spoke upon seeing the painting.
It looked at the magical treasure with bewilderment, never expecting to see the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting here.
After all, the power of this Top-grade Celestial Spiritual Treasure was quite formidable.
Although not as much as itself, it still allowed the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect to stand tall among many ancient forces.
"What’s the difference between the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect and the Beast Taming Sect?"
Jiang Fan raised an eyebrow.
He clearly remembered that Su Weiwei’s cultivation technique, Taiyin Beast Taming Formula, originated from the Beast Taming Sect.
"Both are beast-taming sects from the Ancient Era, part of the Beast Cultivator circle."
"But overall, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is slightly stronger."
"Because they control more spirit beasts, and they’re more powerful."
"It’s rumored there’s a True Spirit backing the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect."
The Primordial Talisman Pen explained.
Undoubtedly, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect was extremely powerful in the Ancient Era. Every disciple of the sect commanded powerful spirit beasts, occupied countless territories, and garnered vast resources.
Their strength was on par with the Primordial Talisman Sect.
It believed that the reason the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect was so strong was intrinsically linked to the Top-grade Celestial Spiritual Treasure, the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting.
Unfortunately, this treasure was a legacy artifact of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, and no external cultivator knew what abilities it possessed.
But who could have anticipated that fortunes would turn, and the Sect Leader of the Primordial Talisman Sect of this generation would acquire the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting.
This was simply a great opportunity.
"Is that so? It seems the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect was quite formidable."
"However, even such a powerful sect was destroyed."
Jiang Fan’s heart stirred.
Since refining this Celestial Spiritual Treasure, he immediately discovered that he had fully refined the array of this Secret Realm World.
With just a thought, he could open the gate to this Secret Realm World.
This Secret Realm World is known as the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm, and it has a total of four Void Gates, allowing convenient access for the cultivators in the realm.
This Secret Realm World appears in the shape of a square, with a diameter of thirty thousand kilometers.
Although not as vast as the previous Black Dragon Secret Realm or Yiling Secret Realm, it is still quite expansive.
After all, even the diameter of Earth is only a little over forty thousand kilometers.
Such a vast Secret Realm World could easily accommodate tens of billions of mortals living in it.
However, after countless years and great catastrophes, no living beings remain in this Secret Realm World, not even beasts, only various weeds, trees, and other plants grow.
Everywhere is barren and desolate.
It’s purely a post-war wasteland Secret Realm.
But this is also advantageous, indicating that this Secret Realm World poses no trouble.
The Primordial Talisman Sect could rebuild in this place.
"Master."
At this moment, a voice instantly transmitted to the depths of Jiang Fan’s consciousness.
Evidently, the Artifact Spirit of the Celestial Spiritual Treasure, the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting, had awakened.
Upon awakening, it immediately recognized Jiang Fan as its master.
Unfortunately, it had lost all its previous memories, akin to a newly born Artifact Spirit.
Yet, precisely because of this, it held immense loyalty towards Jiang Fan, feeling a deep affection for him as if he were its father.
"What abilities do you have?"
Jiang Fan asked directly.
"My ability is simple, it’s to enslave ten thousand beasts."
The Ten Thousand Beasts Painting replied bluntly.
Evidently, this was its fundamental ability, capable of forcibly enslaving numerous beings.
Typically, the more powerful a spirit beast, the harder it is to form a contract with.
Not every spirit beast is willing to sign contracts with human cultivators.
Even some Beast Masters need their spirit beasts to be newborn to sign a contract.
This way, these spirit beasts’ minds are like blank slates, and they can be tricked into signing.
However, the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting is different.
It can forcibly enslave numerous spirit beasts, regardless of their willingness.
This was a critical reason for the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect’s strength in the past.
Any spirit beast targeted by the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect would be captured, enslaved by the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting, and become part of its collective.
Over time, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect enslaved more and more spirit beasts, evolving into a formidable force.
"Can it enslave True Spirits?"
Jiang Fan curiously asked.
He knew the impressive nature of this ability.
If he could harness the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting’s power, he could enslave numerous spirit beasts, maybe even demon race cultivators.
Honestly, if relying on the Primordial Talisman Sect’s own growth, who knows how much time it would take.
But if he utilized the power of the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting to enslave demon race cultivators, transforming them into spirit beasts, this would rapidly bolster the Primordial Talisman Sect’s power.
Without expending much time, it could grow into a potent sect.
However, he was curious about the extent of the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting’s power.
If it could enslave True Spirits, then this magical treasure would be extremely formidable.
"Not sure, I’ve never seen a True Spirit."
"But if the master is strong enough, perhaps it can be done."
The Ten Thousand Beasts Painting couldn’t be certain, as it didn’t know how powerful the legendary True Spirits were.
Perhaps they were not beings it could enslave.
Even so, it was quite confident in its power.
"Besides that, do you have other abilities?"
Jiang Fan continued asking.
"Besides enslaving ten thousand beasts, I can also activate the Array of Ten Thousand Beasts."
"Gathering the power of numerous spirit beasts, merging them into one."
The Ten Thousand Beasts Painting continued.
Undoubtedly, enslaving ten thousand beasts was just one aspect of its power.
It could also harness the power of numerous spirit beasts and unleash unimaginable might.
"Very good."
Jiang Fan felt quite satisfied.
Evidently, this Celestial Spiritual Treasure, the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting, was a cultivation treasure, full of profound mysteries.
Unfortunately, this treasure is the core treasure of the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm, already integrated into the realm.
If this treasure were removed, it would cause the Secret Realm World’s array to collapse.
By then, he wouldn’t be able to control this Secret Realm World.
Unless another Celestial Spiritual Treasure was found to replace the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting’s function, it couldn’t leave.
But that doesn’t matter.
After all, he had many treasures; he didn’t lack the Ten Thousand Beasts Painting.
As long as this treasure remains here, guarding the Ten Thousand Beasts Secret Realm is entirely feasible.
Evidently, it would certainly become the Sect Treasure of the Primordial Talisman Sect.
"Next, I have to relocate all the mortals from Peach Blossom Valley to here."
Jiang Fan hadn’t forgotten the impending disaster at Peach Blossom Valley, where a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Blood Spider Race could attack at any moment, so relocation should be done promptly to avoid being caught in disaster and unable to leave in time.
