Slaughter Before the Holy Temple
In an instant, a golden ray of light shot straight into the sky.
The sky was filled with stars, and the earth trembled.
All the creatures in the Secret Realm turned their gazes toward the beam of energy above the Starry Holy Palace.
Immediately afterwards, a ten-thousand-foot- Phantom slowly gathered in the sky above the Main Hall.
The Phantom was incredibly powerful, and every move it made could shatter space.
The next moment.
A profound voice resounded in everyone's ears:
"I am the Starry Emperor Sovereign."
This realm is the place where this Emperor attained enlightenment, and it is called the Starry Realm.
This palace is the place where this emperor inherited his throne; within it lies countless wonders.
Only those who possess the Star Token may enter the palace.
To ensure the continuation of a legacy, one must pass through trials.
Keep it up, young man.
The future belongs to you.
As the sound faded, the enormous Phantom slowly dissipated.
Rumble!
The palace doors, shrouded in golden light, slowly opened to both sides.
The dazzling golden light blinded everyone.
A terrifying surge of spiritual energy erupted from outside the Main Hall, enveloping everyone.
"Such rich Spiritual Qi!"
"I... I've broken through!"
I've broken through too!
This isn't Spiritual Qi at all; it's clearly spiritual mist!
"Such a blessing is bestowed simply by opening the door; what a magnificent sight it must be inside the palace!"
Ah!
Who! Who attacked Laozi?!
"I'm sorry, Senior Brother, the distribution of the Young Master's tokens was unfair. Your token should be mine!"
The scene instantly descended into chaos.
After receiving the blessings bestowed upon them by the Holy Temple, everyone could no longer suppress the greed in their hearts.
Even under Jin Xia's cover, they secretly attacked their fellow disciples to seize the Star Token.
The sounds of weapons and Law Technique clashing rang out in my ears.
A chorus of wails erupted from all sides.
The leaders of the various factions initially wanted to intervene, but after seeing someone rush into the Holy Temple, they abandoned the idea.
Nothing is more real than fortuitous opportunity.
They all transformed into streaks of light and rushed into the Holy Temple.
"Si Yin, your strength is insufficient to possess the Golden Star Token. You'd better hand it over to me obediently."
Upon seeing Si Wuya enter the Holy Temple, a Foundation Establishment Peak cultivator instantly harbored thoughts he shouldn't have.
Before Luo Lingshuang could make a move, Wu Wuxin grabbed the man's head with his right hand.
With a little force, the man's head exploded.
"Act recklessly!"
Those who witnessed this scene widened their eyes, clearly realizing something, and were about to speak when a water sword flew out of nowhere and pierced their hearts.
After doing all this, Luo Lingshuang's voice rang out:
"Let's go!"
The Two People and a Monkey rushed directly into the Holy Temple.
However, some cultivators who possessed Star Token but were slow to act were not so lucky.
They were stopped immediately.
There were outsiders and... fellow disciples.
Human nature is so easily tested.
Beside the stream.
Zhang Xuanchen took a sip of wine and swallowed the last drop.
Looking at the golden starlight shooting straight into the sky.
A smile played at the corners of his lips.
"It's my turn to act."
After saying that, he stood up and put the animal skin rug and grill into his Myriad Spirit Ring.
We walked towards the deep, dense forest.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were on the Starry Holy Palace.
It's impossible for anyone to notice such a minor character as him.
"Xuanjing, be aware of your surroundings."
"Okay, Brother Chen."
"But are you really sure that the Immortal Opportunity you sense is better than the Starry Emperor Sovereign's inheritance?" Xuanjing asked doubtfully.
Zhang Xuanchen said he had Immortal Opportunity, so the place he went to must also have a connection to Immortal Opportunity.
But the Immortal Opportunity is even better than the inheritance of the Starry Emperor Sovereign.
That's rather absurd.
Hearing Xuanjing's question, Zhang Xuanchen chuckled, "Of course."
This predestined encounter with the Immortal Opportunity feels far more special to me than anything I've experienced before.
Don't worry.
"By the way, Shuoxing, Starry Emperor Sovereign really only leave behind his own inheritance and not any other treasures?"
Upon hearing this, Shuoxing's figure materialized beside Zhang Xuanchen. After pondering for a moment, he said:
That's right.
The Cultivation Method and treasures left behind by the Starry Emperor Sovereign are all in the Starry Holy Palace.
In addition, the palace also contains the legacies of his Four Holy Generals.
One of the holy generals was an Eighth-Stage Peak Long-Armed Divine Monkey.
It is a descendant of the Fighting God Monkey.
If the Great Sage could obtain that person's inheritance, he would definitely be able to fully awaken the Divine Monkey Bloodline.
With the dual blessing of inheritance and bloodline power, he will surely break through to the Fourth Stage Yao Sect within twenty years.
They can definitely become your right-hand man.
Apart from these, the Starry Emperor Sovereign did not leave any treasures or legacies outside the palace.
In that battle, he wielded three imperial artifacts, and destroyed two of them.
The reason I am still alive is because the Starry Emperor Sovereign entrusted the Starry Tower to his eldest disciple for protection.
The enemy I faced was relatively weak, which is why I was able to escape unscathed.
Upon hearing Shuoxing's words, Zhang Xuanchen fell into deep thought.
This means that the Star Core was not something left behind by the Starry Emperor Sovereign.
Yes.
If the Starry Emperor Sovereign possessed Immortal Grade treasure like Star Core, why would he keep it instead of refining it?
After all, having refined the Star Core, his strength will undoubtedly increase further.
Perhaps then they wouldn't have perished.
All indications suggest that the Star Core condensed naturally or has always existed, but no one has noticed it.
Compared to the first possibility, Zhang Xuanchen prefers the second.
After all, the origin of this world is incomplete, making it impossible for Immortal Grade like Star Core to be formed.
Having figured everything out, Zhang Xuanchen smiled.
His gaze fell on a certain spot, and he secretly rejoiced.
The treasure that Starry Emperor Sovereign could not discover has now been found by Zhang.
What does this mean?
Think about it carefully.
This thing definitely has more than just the function of condensing Starry Body.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be worthy of being ranked among the Immortal Grade.
It seems I'll have to figure everything out myself.
Thinking this, Zhang Xuanchen increased his speed even more; he couldn't wait any longer.
Xuanjing, sitting on Zhang Xuanchen's shoulder, was somewhat bewildered by the smile that Zhang Xuanchen couldn't suppress.
However, he didn't say anything.
Once they arrived at the destination, they would naturally find out what kind of Immortal Opportunity had caused Zhang Xuanchen to be so excited.
And so, Zhang Xuanchen traversed a forest under the cover of night, crossed two mountains, and finally stopped at a bottomless crevice.
Mist filled the air beneath the crack, and even with Zhang Xuanchen's Golden Core Mid Stage Divine Sense, he could only perceive the movements within ten miles.
"Xuanjing, how far can you sense?"
As for why he didn't ask Shuoxing, it's because in terms of perception range, he was not as good as Xuanjing at this time.
"About fifty li," Xuanjing replied.
Upon hearing this distance, Zhang Xuanchen nodded in satisfaction.
"Good."
After saying that, he plunged into the crack and sank down according to the location of the Star Core, adjusting his direction.
Without the coordinates provided by the Immortal Fate Information, he was certain he would have gotten lost.
There is no danger here.
But this fog can gradually make you lose your way.
To survive, the only option is to keep rising into the air and leaving the fog's range.
Looking at the surrounding mist, Shuoxing was first puzzled, then nodded to himself.
He muttered to himself:
"If there is any treasure left in this world, it is only this Abyss Rift that has existed since time immemorial."
No living thing can survive here.
There is no danger.
Only this can confuse the cultivators' mist.
Even the Starry Emperor Sovereign of yesteryear couldn't discern any direction upon entering this place.
As far as the eye could see, there was only fog and mist.
Finally, it had no choice but to take off and leave the area.
"So powerful? Even Emperor Sovereign can be confused? I thought it was my problem that I couldn't tell east from west." A rare look of shock appeared in Xuanjing's eyes.
She has now lost her sense of direction and can only perceive the movements within a fifty-mile radius of Zhang Xuanchen.
