Endstone Plate

Tianxuan secondary artifactOriginal transformed into the Final Dissociation Disc in one timeline; derivative plates were mass-produced and distributed

The Endstone Plate, also translated as the Calamity Destruction Stone Plate or Calamity Destruction Stone Disk, is a secondary artifact born from the Tianxuan Mirror. Its initially unreadable stone body becomes the basis for concealment plates that interfere with Tianxuan and Mysterious Net perception, and later contributes to a composite deduction artifact.

History

An unknown Tianxuan secondary artifact

Li Fan first recalls the Calamity Destruction Stone Disk from an earlier life as the source of stones that created loopholes in Mysterious Net surveillance. When the artifact appears directly, it is a new circular Tianxuan secondary body called Endstone. The Alliance has studied it without results, no other secondary bodies have emerged for a decade, and redeeming it costs one hundred thousand Qingxuan points. (Chapters 697, 708, and 722)

Li Fan accepts the risk and redeems it. The palm-sized, heavy gray disc looks like mundane stone and does not respond to spiritual sense or spiritual power, so possession alone yields no usable ability. Rather than claiming immediate mastery, Li Fan transfers the artifact to Fang Zaiji, Jiang Yushan, and Liu San for organized research. (Chapters 728 and 730)

Research, cutting, and concealment

The research group discovers that Endstone exists through layered planes or rings. Jiang Yushan develops a cutting process compared to peeling sheets of rice paper: each removed plane becomes a smaller fragment that can be made into an operational plate. The team then integrates these products into formation barriers to conceal Longevity Valley and continues producing more. (Chapters 738 and 742–746)

The derived plates hide realm entrances and mislead the Tianxuan Treasure Record, even supporting the false appearance that a user remains in closed cultivation. Fang Zaiji and Jiang Yushan carry plates outside the valley, while Xu Bai uses one to block surveillance and places others with operatives. These are issued derivatives under research and mission custody, not repeated transfers of the unique original. (Chapters 747, 754–755, and 758–761)

Distribution and composite transformation

Xu Bai trades fifty derivative plates to a Five Elders representative for True Temptation Fruits, while Fang Zaiji later distributes plates among key Medicine King Sect figures. A borrowed plate may also be inspected by outsiders without changing ownership. This widening chain distinguishes permanent trade, institutional allocation, and momentary access. (Chapters 758–761, 779, and 799)

In one timeline the original plate is combined with nine Dissociation Discs and becomes the Final Dissociation Disc, which Li Fan preserves. That transformation consumes or subsumes the original artifact rather than leaving an independently usable Endstone Plate alongside the composite, although the previously manufactured concealment plates continue to be discussed separately. (Chapters 800 and 804)

Description and function

The original is a palm-sized, unusually heavy, circular gray stone plate. It initially appears spiritually inert: neither spiritual sense nor injected energy reveals its function. Its practical role only emerges when researchers interpret its layered planar structure and turn separated fragments into concealment devices and formation components. (Chapters 728, 742–745)

Abilities and limitations

Tianxuan and Mysterious Net concealment

Operational plates interfere with Tianxuan surveillance, the Tianxuan Treasure Record, and the Mysterious Net, hiding entrances, people, or apparent activity. The demonstrated protection is local and engineered. Later concern that the shielding is not yet complete prevents treating it as universal invisibility against every method of observation. (Chapters 697, 708, 747, 754, and 774)

Planar cutting and derivative production

Endstone's unusual layered existence lets Jiang Yushan cut off plane-like fragments that shrink into usable plates. This property makes derivatives reproducible, but only after specialized analysis, cutting, and likely continuing energy or formation support; the untouched original offers no obvious self-activating protection. (Chapters 728, 738, and 742–746)

Formation integration

Researchers embed plates in a barrier around Longevity Valley and use them to obscure realm passages. The plate is therefore most effective as part of prepared infrastructure or an issued concealment setup, rather than as an offensive weapon. (Chapters 744–747)

Composite-artifact fusion

Endstone can merge with Dissociation Discs to form the Final Dissociation Disc. The resulting artifact has capabilities beyond the plate's own concealment function, so those later deduction powers belong to the composite and should not be retroactively attributed to an unmodified Endstone Plate. (Chapters 800 and 804)

Custody and users

  • Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance: Holds and unsuccessfully studies the Tianxuan secondary artifact before offering it through the Qingxuan exchange. (Chapters 708 and 722)
  • Li Fan: Redeems the original and sponsors its research, later preserving the composite artifact produced from it. (Chapters 728–730 and 804)
  • Fang Zaiji, Jiang Yushan, and Liu San: Receive the original in research custody. Their collective work discovers its structure and produces operational derivatives. (Chapters 730 and 738–746)
  • Xu Bai and Medicine King Sect personnel: Use, issue, and distribute derivative plates for concealment operations. Operational access does not imply custody of the unique original. (Chapters 758–761 and 799)
  • Five Elders Association: Receives fifty derivative plates through a completed trade; this is permanent transfer of that batch, not control of the source artifact or production research. (Chapters 758–761)
  • Tianxuan Mirror produces Endstone as a secondary artifact, yet later derived plates can interfere with Tianxuan observation. (Chapters 708 and 747)
  • Mysterious Net has surveillance gaps created by Endstone-derived concealment. (Chapters 697 and 708)
  • Final Dissociation Disc incorporates the original plate in one timeline. (Chapters 800 and 804)
