New Chapter: New Saint Star Road
The Milky Way flowed, and a hazy, clear light shone down. The Supernatural Great Universe was right before their eyes, and now they had officially set foot there.
What catches the eye most is not the remaining fragments of the Darkness Heart, nor the Imperial Dao Level calligraphy brush with its Yin and Yang energies flowing in the robot's hand, nor even the Super Mothership.
What truly moved Wang Xuan and the other treasures was that the rules of heaven and earth, and the omnipresent Mythological Factor, were still so abundant even in the depths of the universe, in places unseen by humankind.
The radiance of the sun, moon, and stars rose like smoke, slowly dissipating, and the entire Great Universe was no longer cold and desolate. The Super Material was so dense that it permeated the entire starry sky.
"My lord, what's going on?" the robot asked, his brush radiating murderous intent, its tip gleaming, drawing upon boundless power.
The robot instantly understood that it was in harmony with the brush, as if it were merging with the Dao, and could naturally unleash its supernatural powers freely in the Supernatural Universe.
The universe is the inkstone, and the Milky Way is the ink.
The robot extended its right arm, dipped the pen in the ink of the Milky Way, and drew upon the power of the stars. Starlight from all over the sky gathered, and mythical matter, as vast as the sea and as high as the mountains, was all mobilized by it.
He grinds ink with the Yin and Yang energies. At this moment, the brush is connected to the divine, to the heavens, and to the great Dao. When the robot holds the brush, it creates a galaxy and can decide life and death.
There's a lot of skill involved; the brushstrokes cut through yin and yang, outlining a gate of death, directly intending to impound several priceless treasures inside.
"What era is this? Even robots are trying to be cultured, practicing calligraphy. Although they look quite professional and are quite powerful, you should be writing poetry and painting, not wielding swords," Dao Control Banner said.
It confronts challenges head-on, never forgetting its original aspirations and maintaining its consistent nature. It carefully considers every treasure it sees, adhering to its life principles.
A huge banner flew across the sky, its fluttering banner instantly covering the starry sky. With a loud bang, it shattered the gate of death and slashed towards the robot.
The robot, holding a calligraphy brush, wrote regular patterns there. In an instant, the universe and starry sky were mobilized by him, and the ink became a glittering galaxy, which he hurled at us with great force.
"Let's go!" Darkness Heart said. Now is not the time for battle. Even if he returned to this universe in his prime, he would need to keep a low profile or even lie low, let alone now.
"Kill!" Wang Xuan piloted the array diagram and swooped down. He had adapted a little, and this place was somewhat different from the Mother Universe behind him.
The Carefree Boat and the Life Pool were also glowing, all becoming enormous, surging in this sea of stars, chasing after the Darkness Heart, and crushing towards the brush.
However, they had a hunch that this pursuit... had failed.
Sure enough, the starry sky ahead was hazy. When the robot swung the brush, it retreated rapidly, and the spaceship and the fragments of the Darkness Heart were like being trapped in a swamp, disappearing into it and vanishing from sight.
"Don't chase!" Wang Xuan shouted.
In fact, even without his reminder, the three treasures, having survived countless calamities across various Mythological Era and possessing incredibly rich combat experience, all came to a standstill.
With a sudden sound, the brush, dipped in the Milky Way, reappeared and thrust forward. Thick, luminous ink fell, and in a surprising twist, it struck the starry sky, turning into a black hole that threatened to engulf them.
This was naturally ineffective; the black hole was lifeless and could do nothing against the treasure. This time, the Yin Yang Brush truly disappeared, merely serving to temporarily hinder them.
"So this crossover is a success, Six Great Figures have entered the Supernatural Great Universe?" The Mechanical Xiao exclaimed with delight.
In the distance, a massive surge of blood energy rose up, resembling a nebula undulating across the universe, obscuring the sun, moon, and stars—a truly terrifying sight.
"Was that... a living being?!" Life Pool exclaimed, deeply moved.
At another coordinate, a monster covered in scales, shrouded in endless starlight, opened its eyes in an extremely distant place, holding a large bow. It Fusion and Unity, radiating a terrifying, forbidden power, and gazed at this place.
It was obvious that they were extremely far apart, yet they were still able to see and pay attention to the commotion here, which was truly astonishing.
In the dark starry sky, a terrifying mechanical Dragon Turtle appeared, flowing with Mythological Factor, carrying Demon Blade, and carrying Chaos Matter. It floated silently, so enormous that it made one's heart tremble. The planets along the way seemed tiny in comparison.
This is quite unusual. They have only crossed over into another realm, yet in this very starry sky, several beings and contraband have merged into one, locking onto this place. Danger is approaching.
"Are we being targeted? Have we become a pawn for Darkness Heart to escape?" Wang Xuan frowned.
Darkness Heart has a very powerful background. Before his defeat, he ranked third among prohibited items, and everything related to him is extraordinary.
Has someone predicted his return?
Or perhaps their pursuit of Darkness Heart caused the fog surrounding his return journey to dissipate, revealing something to others.
"Darkness Heart has made it onto the kill list. The ancient seal of the old era, which should have been melted down, is still alive. The work done back then was inadequate."
Further away, a young man stood above a modern city, dressed in casual clothes, with short black hair and bright, piercing eyes. His consciousness even reached Depths of Starry Sky.
In deep space, on a vibrant planet, numerous sacred mountains and various Daoist lineages abound. A man dressed in retro attire stands before a large tree laden with ginseng fruits in a Daoist temple, his brow furrowed. Holding a prohibited item, he takes to the air and gazes towards the interdimensional passage.
"The old seal that originated from the Black Sky Universe has not been destroyed yet?" He had loose black hair and an innate Daoist air. Although he had an otherworldly aura, the forbidden items on his body were releasing a terrifying aura.
His fluctuations in consciousness also clearly impacted the area in front of the interdimensional passage.
Not only Wang Xuan, but also Dao Control Banner and the Life Pool were shocked. They hadn't even established a firm Roots yet, and several supreme fluctuations were already emanating from a small part of this Great Universe.
They were alarmed. Was this related to the Darkness Heart, and were they going to be implicated?
Just then, a woman's voice rang out, grand and solemn, saying, "This is the New Saint Star Road. You are people and contraband who have migrated from a universe where spiritual energy has faded?"
As she spoke, these powerful, forbidden-level forces were rapidly approaching and heading towards this place.
The Dao Control Banner is strong and resolute, but now there is some unease; they may be hunted down.
Regardless of whether they were hostile or not, they were unwilling to be surrounded by unknown creatures and contraband.
"Let's go back," Wang Xuan said. He didn't want to get into a bloody battle right after crossing over into a new field. He had originally wanted to explore quietly, but now it seemed the opportunity wasn't good.
"If we go back, we might never be able to open the portal to this Supernatural Universe again, because there's no key left in our Mother Universe," the Life Pool warned.
But now they have no choice but to retreat. If it were just one or two people approaching, it wouldn't be a big deal, but now the blood energy and forbidden-level aura of the New Saint Star Road are coming in waves, and several forces are extremely dangerous.
"The Darkness Heart has returned; it was just guided away by a writing brush!" Before leaving, Wang Xuan, Carefree Boat, and Dao Control Banner spoke together.
In any case, we can't let Darkness Heart get away with this. Since we failed to kill him, let's leave him to someone else. After returning to this world, he will be wanted by the authorities.
In fact, the passage behind them was about to close, and if it weren't for the light of rules that the First Killing Array Diagram occasionally swept across, the way back would have been cut off long ago.
"The Six Great Figures are gone!" the Mechanical Xiao cried out regretfully.
They vanished from this world in a flash. Of course, before leaving, Wang Xuan also managed to extract as much of the gentle Supernatural Factor as possible.
On their return journey, as they traversed the soon-to-close cosmic passage, Wang Xuan and Zhibao carefully sensed the path and gained a deeper understanding of it.
In the past, there seemed to be some misconceptions. The so-called adjacent Great Universe may actually be infinitely far apart, not simply separated by Realm Wall.
On their journey back, they joined forces to capture the true situation, analyze the path, and discover that in the endless void, chaos surged, and many universes were vaguely visible along the way. Before they were opened, they needed someone to guide them, like a lighthouse in the dark, to effectively find the right path.
The passage has closed, and they have returned to their own Mother Universe.
"It won't be easy to visit each other anymore," Dao Control Banner sighed, having run out of keys.
"The Great Red Sky Saber is still here," Wang Xuan said.
"It's just the shell of a treasure; the most important spark of consciousness has gone far away and is no longer effective," Carefree Boat said.
"We'll always find a new path in the future." Wang Xuan believes that it's not necessary to take the Planar Channel; there are other routes to explore.
"The harvest is great, there's nothing to be dissatisfied with." The Life Pool emitted a wave of consciousness, and several black fragments spewed out from its mouth, like black stars floating and sinking.
"Hehe, haha... Although we didn't kill him, it's still good enough. What Darkness Heart? It was still dismantled." Dao Control Banner laughed in a demonic way.
"Come, come, let's study the Shapeshifting Scripture." It captured even more fragments.
This time, not only did they gain treasures, but Wang Xuan also captured a few small fragments using the array diagram, and immediately gave two of them to the Mechanical Xiao.
The Mechanical Xiao held the fragments in both hands, looking as if it were receiving a sacred artifact, and was overjoyed.
"What third place? Nothing special." The Dao Control Banner fluttered. Today, it had once again shattered a supreme treasure. Its fearsome reputation would inevitably be passed down for many more Mythological Era.
Wang Xuan said, "Be careful. He hasn't truly recovered. In a sense, this is the state that Darkness Heart was in when it transformed and underwent tribulation. Now it's just being reassembled; the original body hasn't truly healed. Otherwise, this battle would be hard to predict."
He controlled the killing formation diagram, not wanting to linger for a moment, and quickly rushed back to find Zhao Qinghan and the three children.
On the way, they also talked about their experiences in the Supernatural Universe. Even Dao Control Banner felt heavy-hearted and under considerable pressure.
"Those people mentioned that Darkness Heart is on the Kill List. What kind of list is this? Is it a list of prohibited items?"
When they considered this possibility, they all felt it was unreal and thought it couldn't possibly be that way.
"A being spoke up, saying that the Darkness Heart was a seal from an old era that should have been destroyed long ago. This statement is rather frightening."
Although it's early today, this is the only chapter I'll be working on tonight. I need to organize my thoughts; it's clear we're entering a new era.
