The Desolate Ten Thousand Stars City! Hunter? Prey?

Ten Thousand Stars City.

The number of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal here is far less than Ao Changsheng had imagined.

Although the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal intentionally concealed his location, even Ao Changsheng couldn't pinpoint his exact location without careful investigation, but the aura...

Ao Changsheng, however, would not misjudge.

In this vast Ten Thousand Stars City, there are only a handful of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.

Ao Changsheng fell silent.

Moreover, he could sense that the scattered auras of those few Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal were also like his, manifested as avatars or clones through other means.

Chaos is dangerous, and this situation is quite normal.

But this quantity...

Original...

Ao Changsheng believed that Ten Thousand Stars City, as a city that roamed the Chaos, was not only a gathering place of the Chaos World with tens of thousands of Chaos Demon God.

But there should still be at least one or two hundred Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal sticking together for warmth!

After all, Ten Thousand Stars City had roamed in the Chaos for countless years and had encountered numerous Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.

With just a little guidance from someone, this place should be able to become a gathering place for Chaos Demon God.

This situation is very abnormal.

Even if many Chaos Demon God are unwilling to gather, what about the builders of this Ten Thousand Stars City, or its masters?

Was such a magnificent city built simply to drift aimlessly in the Chaos?

A strange feeling arose in Ao Changsheng's heart.

Moreover, even though he didn't conceal his aura much, those few Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal auras didn't make a move.

Ao Changsheng could sense that they had only glanced at him from afar, and none of them seemed to intend to move or come here.

It was as if they didn't care at all about him, this outsider or newcomer, the Hunyuan Daluo.

Ao Changsheng fell silent for a moment.

Is there something wrong with Ten Thousand Stars City?

Or is there something wrong with these few Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal?

Surely it can't be that rare, that there are really so few Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal in this Chaos!

How is that possible!

Although Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal are rare, they could not possibly be this rare within the Chaos Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.

It's important to know that when Pangu created the world, as many as three thousand Chaos Demon God perished in that battle.

In this Chaos, how could Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal be so rare...?

Wait, could it be that Pangu has already killed all the Chaos Demon God at the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal level?

Such a thought suddenly flashed through Ao Changsheng's mind.

However, he was immediately kicked away by Ao Changsheng.

Although I haven't gained much in these years of navigating Chaos.

But occasionally one can still encounter the existence of the Chaos Demon God.

Even in such a short time, he encountered a Chaos Demon God of Disorder at the Hunyuan of a Daluo Golden Immortal Realm.

It's obvious.

Although Pangu killed many of the Chaos Demon God in the Chaos, they could not possibly be so few as to be this rare.

"The problem most likely lies in Ten Thousand Stars City, or with those few Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal," Ao Changsheng said with certainty without much thought.

First up is Ten Thousand Stars City.

Judging from the Myriad Stars Token alone, the possibility of a problem is quite high.

Moreover, no matter what Ten Thousand Stars City looks like now, it will never be separated from Ten Thousand Stars City.

As for those few Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal...

The vast Ten Thousand Stars City of Myriad Stars has no restrictions on cultivators entering, yet only a few Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal reside there.

If they had no problems, even Ao Changsheng himself probably wouldn't have gone into detail.

But...

At this moment, what was here was merely an avatar, and it did not carry any treasures, so Ao Changsheng had no fear.

Only...

It seems that this Ten Thousand Stars City won't be of much help to him in his upcoming hunt for the Chaos Demon God.

He had originally planned that if there were many Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal in Ten Thousand Stars City, he would try to lure one or two... or even one or two groups of Chaos Demon God at the Hunyuan Daluo level to serve as fertilizer for his trees.

But now...

It looks like there's no chance.

But...

It's good to learn more about the Chaos World.

Although cultivators are extremely rare in Ten Thousand Stars City, there are quite a few puppets in the Ten Thousand Stars City, like demon god servants guarding the gates.

By exploring the entire Ten Thousand Stars City, one can surely gather some information.

If he couldn't get any information, Ao Changsheng planned to "pay a visit" to those few Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.

If all else fails...

Within Ten Thousand Stars City, in the areas inhabited by Hunyuan Golden Immortal, there are quite a few Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

With this in mind, Ao Changsheng did not hesitate much and headed deeper into Ten Thousand Stars City.

But what Ao Changsheng was unaware of at this time was...

Those Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal whom he considered to be indifferent to him as an outsider had secretly gathered together.

They were discussing—no, they were assigning—his fate!

"Greetings, Venerable!"

"Does the Venerable intend to enter this Withered Tree World?"

"Please Venerable, contribute your Star Power!"

"The Venerable's Star Power is insufficient."

Once again rejected by a puppet, Ao Changsheng walked out of the strange tree-shaped building and looked at the strange symbol above the tree that originated from the same source as the wall of Ten Thousand Stars City.

"Do these five symbols represent the Withered Tree World?"

Ao Changsheng memorized the five strange symbols above.

This was not the first strange building that Ao Changsheng had entered.

In this Ten Thousand Stars City, there are many such strangely shaped buildings, which occupy a vast area and are extremely far apart.

But this Ten Thousand Stars City is a massive city comparable in size to a Great Thousand World.

Ao Changsheng roughly estimated that there were probably tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of these strange buildings in Ten Thousand Stars City.

Although... up to now, the treatment Ao Changsheng has received in each of these strange buildings has been almost identical.

The puppets within those strange buildings were not as intelligent as the demon god's servant puppet that Ao Changsheng encountered at the city gate.

They don't even possess normal intelligence.

This is extremely abnormal.

But

"These puppets..."

Ao Changsheng frowned.

Unlike the intelligent Half-Sage god servant puppets at the city gate, the puppets in Ten Thousand Stars City are all single-function.

Moreover, these appear to be ordinary puppets that lack normal intelligence.

This is strange.

It should be noted that although these puppets are not as powerful as the demon god puppets at the city gate, which are at the Half-Sage level, they are still puppets at the level of Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

This level of puppet doesn't even possess sentience.

This made Ao Changsheng extremely curious: what were the motives of the puppet makers who created these puppets?

Certainly...

Ao Changsheng did not come away empty-handed.

At the very least, Ao Changsheng had already collected quite a few characters represented by these strange symbols.

They all remembered the meaning of these strange characters and the grammar of the writing system represented by these strange symbols.

Certainly.

It's not complete yet; it requires a large number of unusual symbols representing characters to organize.

Although these strange symbols do not contain any extraordinary power, their complexity is in no way inferior to that of Innate Divine Script.

Even more so, precisely because these strange runes do not contain any special power, the characters they represent are even more difficult to learn and organize than Innate Divine Script.

Even Ao Changsheng would need a large amount of data to integrate and organize it.

Looking at the tens of millions of strange buildings in front of him... Ao Changsheng wasn't worried about whether he could collect enough data.

Although there seems to be no immediate use in collecting and understanding the characters represented by these strange symbols.

But...

Ao Changsheng's intuition told him that the characters represented by these strange symbols would be of great use.

Just then...

Ao Changsheng's gaze fell upon the most prominent Tongtian Starlight Tower in the center of Ten Thousand Stars City.

Right there!

A glint of shrewdness flashed in Ao Changsheng's eyes.

Although there is no evidence or clue, a monk's intuition is usually very accurate.

Especially since Ao Changsheng is a Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal, Ao Changsheng is willing to give 100% trust to his intuition.

"They're quite clever, knowing to use an avatar to enter Ten Thousand Stars City, and even after entering, they knew to collect the Legacy Script immediately. It's a pity..."

"Their vigilance is definitely lacking."

In some strange space of unknown location, a sneer suddenly rang out from within a distorted mass of black mist.

Not far from the distorted black mist, in that strange space, an image was suspended.

That image could only belong to Ao Changsheng from Ten Thousand Stars City.

As the sneer rang out, several figures began to appear one after another in this strange space.

No.

Describing it as a figure might not be entirely accurate.

After all, what's revealed in this strange space is...

"Hehe, let's all be more forgiving! After all, he's just a child. Judging from his demeanor, he's probably no more than ten years old!"

A voice as gentle as a spring breeze rang out.

The sound came from a ball of water, a ball that looked pure and flawless, without the slightest impurity, and at first glance, it gave off a deceptive feeling.

"What a genius! He's not even ten years old and he's already reached the Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal... It's truly enviable."

The sound came from a transparent, blurry, and irregularly shaped figure.

As it spoke, the transparent, blurry figure changed shape millions, tens of millions, or even more times.

Along with the changes in its form, its voice also constantly changes.

If a Great Daluo Golden Immortal were here, hearing just these words would probably be enough to overload their Daluo Golden Immortal Primordial Spirit, causing them to Guixu.

However, none of the beings present were fragile beings like Daluo Golden Immortal; none of them exhibited this unusual behavior.

"Heh heh... Destroying geniuses is my favorite thing to do, and it just so happens... This time it should be my turn to make a move!"

A strange laugh rang out, and a figure resembling a black sun slowly appeared, its black light illuminating all directions and turning the surroundings into an incomparably deep black.

The only area that wasn't turned black was probably the area around those figures. The black light that approached was immediately obliterated by the power of those figures.

Although the Black Sun's actions were arrogant, none of the figures around it paid any attention.

They had known each other for many years; although they weren't exactly best friends, they were quite familiar with each other.

This disappearance wasn't enough to bother them.

Just as the black sun was laughing excitedly, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Black Light... could you perhaps let me have this chance to strike?"

The sound came from a ball of pitch-black flame, within which were scattered specks of red light.

Upon hearing this statement...

Whether they had spoken earlier or remained silent, all eyes turned to the dark flames.

Although these figures do not have pupils or eyes in the traditional sense, each of them has its own way of seeing.

Their gazes toward the dark flames were filled with curiosity, surprise, and other emotions.

"Hellfire... you want that monk?"

The black sun also looked at the pitch-black flames and spoke with a hint of curiosity.

"Um!"

The dark flame responded.

Looking at the pitch-black flames, the Black Sun didn't hesitate much, nor did it seem to want to ask why the flames wanted it. Instead, it spoke directly.

"I want fifty!"

Upon hearing this statement...

The dark flame flickered suddenly.

The figures around them all looked at the black sun in surprise, clearly not expecting it to open its mouth so wide.

Their gazes toward the dark flames also became playful.

Only...

"Good!"

Although the black flame paused and hesitated for a moment, its firm answer made the surrounding onlookers pause in surprise.

Even the black sun hadn't expected the dark flames to return so quickly.

A brief silence followed.

"He is yours now! Hellfire..."

The black sun said in a deep voice.

After saying that, the figure of the black sun vanished without a trace.

At the same time, the surrounding figures also disappeared.

In the end, only the pitch-black flame remained in this strange space.

At this moment, the pitch-black flames suddenly expanded rapidly, originally only the size of an ordinary person's fist.

In an instant, it suddenly expanded billions of times, stretching for billions of light-years, with the pitch-black flames occasionally flickering, revealing the black rocks beneath them.

Within the pitch-black flames, the scattered red specks of light transformed into countless scarlet eyes, resembling stars and the sun.

This posture.

It was none other than the Hellfire Mountain Master had just completed a transaction with Yangmei not long ago.

The Hellfire Mountain Master stared intently at Ao Changsheng in the image with his countless crimson eyes. Although the gaze was faint, it was clear that the Hellfire Mountain Master was also somewhat surprised.

After all...

He had just completed a deal with the Hellfire Mountain Master, and he had originally prepared to spend several years searching for him.

Certainly...

This year of the Hellfire Mountain Master is not a year of the Primordial World, but Chaos year, roughly corresponding to an era of the Primordial World.

But...

The target of his hunt, the target he had craved for millions of years, appeared before his eyes so easily.

Even the Hellfire Mountain Master felt a sense of unreality as he gazed at the figure in the image before him, his voice low and filled with longing.

"Ao~ Chang~ Sheng~!"
