I, the Black Heaven Demonic Ape, an Abandoned Pawn of Martial Star and a Faithful Follower of the Myriad Stars Divine Kingdom
Before leaving Martial Star, Ning Chuan had already figured out the Blazing Sun Army's plan to withdraw from Martial Star and knew the detailed route of their return journey, which was near the planetary belt.
Ning Chuan arrived quickly, then disappeared into the void, waiting and comprehending the Great Dao.
Several days passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, in the unseen void of the Universe, Ning Chuan suddenly opened his eyes, which shone like the blazing sun. He saw a massive starship battle group approaching from the distant dark space, with the Yanghe, Sun Core with a diameter of over 100,000 kilometers, prominently among them.
It was the Blazing Sun Army on their way home!
Ning Chuan stealthily flew towards the central Sun Core. After arriving at the outer layer of the ship, he flashed, distorted the void, traversed dimensions, and directly entered the interior of the Sun Core.
The process went unnoticed.
This super starship, capable of blocking the invasion of Demigod, showed no reaction whatsoever to Ning Chuan's intrusion.
All the protective magic arrays fell silent!
Ning Chuan wields several Great Dao and has specially activated several of the most powerful Divine Treasure that are adept at concealment. His stealth skills are profound, so it is not difficult for him to evade the detection of the Sun Core.
Even if a Mystic King at the peak of the First-Grade Law were to invade, he would be far from reaching Ning Chuan's level.
This is a crushing victory of profound artistic conception!
Swish...
Ning Chuan moved forward silently, without any obstruction. Neither people nor tools noticed his presence.
With a diameter exceeding 100,000 kilometers, Sun Core is larger than many ancient life-bearing Gu Xing.
The interior space is spacious.
All facilities are complete.
It is not limited to combat equipment, but is divided into multiple areas such as the central combat zone, star energy storage zone, barracks zone, leisure zone, and rest and sightseeing zone.
Sometimes a long interstellar voyage can take thousands of years.
The soldiers all had leave and rest inside the Sun Core.
After all, even the strongest people, though full of energy, will accumulate mental fatigue and need to relax and rest from time to time.
In the path of spiritual practice, a balance of activity and rest is the key.
Ning Chuan had investigated Sun Core several times, and although this was his first time visiting in person, he was quite familiar with the area and soon arrived at the barracks for junior officers.
At this moment, in a single barracks.
The Black Heaven Demonic Ape sat cross-legged on a stone platform, its eyes closed, its hands forming a mudra, and black mist rising around it, diligently cultivating.
"The news has already spread. The Blazing Sun Army will most likely not be dismantled, but rather downgraded to a second-tier force. The new army commander will probably be one of the two deputy army commanders at the Universe Realm. My hopes of being transferred to the All Saints Manor are basically dashed, and my future prospects will inevitably be affected. But I cannot give up. It's just a setback. If I can rise from this adverse environment, I will only shine brighter in the future!"
As the first Law Spirit of the mythical era, the Black Heaven Demonic Ape's strength and temperament are naturally exceptional.
Unwavering will!
They possess a fearless spirit that aims straight for the pinnacle of martial arts!
"No one can predict the future. Once Martial Star Martial Star fully recovers, I might have a chance to return!"
The Black Heaven Demonic Ape adjusted his mindset and became even more agitated!
"In terms of talent and strength, I am inferior to Ning Chuan, and I am not a human from the Martial Star. However, Ning Chuan has offended too many people, even daring to provoke Immortal. He might die before me..."
The next moment, the Black Heaven Demonic Ape's consciousness was interrupted, and it fell into endless darkness.
Ning Chuan's figure appeared, entered the barracks, and with a single finger, obliterated the Black Heaven Demonic Ape, annihilating its body without leaving a trace!
In fact, the barracks area has an alarm device for detecting energy.
Moreover, as an important department of the Sun Core, it is equipped with various alarm devices to specifically prevent powerful individuals from infiltrating and assassinating it.
However, Ning Chuan's attack was unusually profound, and the Black Heaven Demonic Ape he killed was far too weak compared to him, clearly lacking the strength to reach the level of General-Bestowing. Under the influence of various factors, it was not difficult for him to evade the detection of the Sun Core.
Snap!
Ning Chuan's flesh and bones surged violently, and in an instant, he transformed into the form of the Black Heaven Demonic Ape.
Not only their physical bodies, but even their souls are exactly the same!
This is a disguise created by combining the power of Dao Art, the Great Dao, the strongest Divine Treasure, and body cultivation Divine Art. It is extremely powerful. Ning Chuan is confident that only True God or Immortal could detect some clues by repeatedly and specifically examining him.
Next, Ning Chuan picked up the Black Heaven Demonic Ape's spatial ring, took out a set of standard combat uniforms, and put them on.
Even before killing the Black Heaven Demonic Ape, Ning Chuan had already discerned its entire plan and knew that there were still duties to be performed.
"Now, I am the Black Heaven Demonic Ape!"
Ning Chuan grinned, revealing sharp, white teeth.
Although he could gather information while hidden on the Sun Core without being detected, having a real identity would be much more convenient.
Next, Ning Chuan stayed in the barracks, using his reconnaissance capabilities to cover the entire starship fleet and continuously gather information.
Several hours later, the order to go on duty came.
Ning Chuan pushed open the door, left the barracks, and headed towards the assembly area.
" Black Ape, you're quite diligent in your training. Did you get provoked by Vice Captain Zhang?"
"He's just an ordinary Heaven Realm, not General-Bestowing expert. If you really push me too far, I'll make him heal for at least a hundred years!"
"Haha... Don't get so worked up. You're a new recruit, it's not surprising that you get bullied a bit!"
"As long as he doesn't go too far, I'll definitely tone it down."
Upon arriving at the assembly point, Ning Chuan met his colleagues on duty. Just like Black Heaven Demonic Ape usually does, he joined in the conversation as usual.
When discussing the targeting he was being targeted, his expression showed resentment and anger.
After all, the Black Heaven Demonic Ape came from the Martial Star and had only been in the Blazing Sun Army for a few days, so his military career was bound to be difficult, and he was hated by many soldiers.
Fortunately, because Yin Zhu had spared its life, no powerful expert from the Upper Three Realms deliberately suppressed it.
Before long, Ning Chuan and the others arrived at their assigned area under the leadership of their captain.
As a new recruit, Black Heaven Demonic Ape was naturally not in charge of the core area of Sun Core. He usually patrolled the leisure area, where there was no benefit to be gained and no merit to be accumulated.
However, this happens to meet Ning Chuan's requirements.
One important factor in Ning Chuan's choice to disguise himself as the Black Heaven Demonic Ape was that the Black Heaven Demonic Ape was responsible for guarding the recreation area.
His ability to probe can easily cover the entire starship fleet, but to read minds and probe the thoughts of living beings, he needs to be a certain distance away.
Among the soldiers in the leisure area, there are many strong individuals who are more relaxed, making it easier to discern their inner thoughts.
The Black Heaven Demonic Ape's status wasn't high, but it was just right for Ning Chuan.
He currently has too little information; he cannot even be 100% certain whether the Origin of the Great Dao exists.
If it exists, where would it be placed?
What level of protective forces are surrounding the area?
Without this information, it's impossible to make precise decisions about the next steps.
My current identity may have to be abandoned at any time.
Pretending to be a high-ranking member of the Upper Three Realms would do more harm than good.
Black Heaven Demonic Ape was just a new recruit, and Law Spirit of Martial Star. His sudden disappearance wouldn't attract much attention, and he would most likely be thought to have fled the Blazing Sun Army due to pressure.
The disappearance of a high-ranking officer from the Upper Three Realms will certainly cause quite a stir.
"No rush, take it one step at a time."
Ning Chuan was very patient, patrolling the streets while maintaining his mind-reading ability, constantly trying to discern the thoughts of the creatures around him.
Information poured in rapidly and was all remembered by Ning Chuan.
It might play an important role in the future.
Even when it comes to peeking into the future and confusing the secrets of heaven, a certain amount of intelligence is required. The more information one has, the better the effect of the operation.
Suddenly, Ning Chuan turned a street corner and focused his attention on Yin Wuzhou.
The other person had just walked out of a bar by the roadside, reeking of alcohol. His clothes were worn for several days, bunched up in dense wrinkles, and he carried a bottle of liquor in his hand, taking large gulps every now and then.
For a powerful figure like Yin Wuzhou, alcohol had long lost its effect.
However, there are some fine wines in the Universe that are specially made for the strong. They contain special substances, and even top-tier True God will experience a hazy feeling of intoxication if they do not deliberately suppress it.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
Your Highness!
Do you need us to escort you?
Upon seeing Yin Wuzhou emerge, the soldiers on the road bowed in salute, but Yin Wuzhou ignored them, simply waving his hand before taking off into the air.
Ning Chuan watched his retreating figure, his eyes flickering slightly.
Yin Wuzhou is very powerful, wielding First-Grade Law of the Universe Realm, and is infinitely close to the level of Marquis-Bestowing. To understand all of his thoughts is beyond Ning Chuan's current limit, but it is still possible to read some basic information.
"Strange, his depression is because of me, yet he's never even met me in person!"
"There's also a sense of fear towards me!"
"He's a genius who has mastered First-Grade Law, after all. There's no need for him to act like this just out of fear!"
Ning Chuan's thoughts raced, a slight sense of doubt creeping in.
Meanwhile, the soldiers who saw Yin Wuzhou leave were all talking amongst themselves, but out of respect, they all kept their conversations secret.
"Your Highness has been depressed for several months and hasn't recovered yet!"
"There's nothing I can do, it's too much of a Wuzhou. It's said that His Highness Wuzhou originally intended to descend in place of Military Lord Nie Yang, and was extremely confident, vowing to kill Ning Chuan. But you saw the result, even with the Military Lord's divine weapon, he couldn't withstand Ning Chuan's sword!"
"What a pity!"
"I've heard that His Highness Wuzhou's understanding of the Time Law surpasses that of many True God, and he has fused with as many as seventy fundamental Law!"
These private communications couldn't escape Ning Chuan's investigation and were all discovered.
As he listened, Ning Chuan nodded to himself, roughly understanding Yin Wuzhou's performance.
However, Ning Chuan didn't pay much attention to this; he was more concerned about Yin Wuzhou's progress in mastering the Time Law.
"If the rumors are true, Yin Wuzhou has fused with seventy fundamental Law. The probability of him comprehending the true Time Law in the future is not low!" Ning Chuan pondered silently, monitoring Yin Wuzhou throughout, and analyzed, "A genius of this level should have the authority to know whether the Yin Family possesses the Origin of the Great Dao of Space-Time!"
In the world-destroying war of that year, the two Immortal who created the Eternal Heavenly Art were both killed by the powerful warriors of the Martial Star.
According to Master Lou, one of the Immortal Great Dao was Destruction, but the Origin of the Great Dao of Space-Time extracted from the other person after his death was taken back by other powerful figures from Yin Star.
If it is not sold or forged into weapons, it should be preserved.
Ning Chuan watched as Yin Wuzhou put away the wine bottle, casually straightened his clothes, and entered the main hall where the Mystic King was.
