"Wang Xu!"
Not far from Earth, Brother Luo Shou and the Law Enforcent Elder erged from the void.
"Greetings to the Law Enforcent Elder!" Lu Chen, still considered a disciple of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, must greet respectfully regardless of which hall’s Law Enforcent Elder, brother, or Hall Master he ets in the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion. This is also a way for the Pavilion’s disciples to enhance camaraderie.
"Are you... Brother Lu Chen?" Brother Luo Shou looked at Lu Chen, his eyes lighting up, "It really is Brother Lu Chen. I didn’t expect to see you here."
Lu Chen glanced at Luo Shou, then seed to recall sothing, and said, "Luo Shou... you were the newcor being chased by the ’Winged Dragon Bird’ back then, right? Not just you, there were several little fellows from the Cyan Yang Hall as well, a group of people being pursued by the Winged Dragon Bird..."
"Back then, I was weak. Thank you, Brother Lu, for helping . I was able to survive because of you. Thank you!" Luo Shou sincerely offered a grand salute to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen waved his hand: "Just a coincidence. I was on a mission at the ti and happened to sense a distress signal from a disciple of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion... So many years have passed, that little fellow at the Black Hole Level back then has now beco White Hole Level, and your aura can rival the Void Chaos Realm."
Brother Luo Shou rarely smiled, which showed Lu Chen’s importance in his heart.
"Let’s leave the reminiscing for later." The Law Enforcent Elder said, "The people from the Dark Holy Banquet could launch an assassination at any ti, so we must quickly head to the Heaven-Reaching Sacred Cosmos."
Wang Xu and the others nodded. The Law Enforcent Elder imdiately waved his hand, and a plain wooden boat appeared.
The wooden boat wasn’t large, just over a hundred square ters, but the aura it emanated shook Wang Xu’s mind.
Divine Treasure.
"A warship-type Divine Treasure, I’ve never heard of such a treasure existing." Even within the list of treasures in the Suru Palace, Wang Xu hadn’t seen a warship-type treasure.
However, Wang Xu’s Space Ring contained a "Magic Cube Curtain," a Divine Treasure obtained after killing Demon Swamp Ming Xing, having the capability to enhance speed, thus counting as half a warship-type treasure.
"Let’s go." The four of them stepped onto the wooden boat, and a faint Energy Barrier instantly isolated them from the outside world.
"Go." The Law Enforcent Elder waved grandly, and the boat sailed forward at an extrely fast speed. Wang Xu was secretly surprised—this boat’s speed reached at least ten tis the speed of light, and this was just its ordinary cruising speed. If it perford space-ti teleportation, wouldn’t it be even faster?
Just as Wang Xu thought, the Law Enforcent Elder clasped his hands together, and Wang Xu felt his vision blur. Suddenly, a deep black hole appeared in front of them, and the wooden boat rushed straight in.
"This is..." Wang Xu looked around at the colorful and splendid tunnel, like a fantastical space-ti tunnel. The boat carried the four of them swiftly through the tunnel, violent storms slicing the Energy Barrier, creating ripples.
"What? You’ve never seen this?" Brother Lu Chen drank a sip of wine and laughed.
Wang Xu nodded truthfully. He had experienced countless space-ti teleports but never like this.
"This is ’Wormhole Transition,’ more convenient than space-ti teleportation. At this crossing speed, we’ll reach the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion in less than a day." Brother Lu Chen said.
A day!
Wang Xu was slightly shocked. Initially, it took nearly a year for him to travel from Earth to the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion. Most of that year, he relied on the space-ti teleportation platforms of various Star Domains to jump, and even so, it took him such a long ti. However, wormhole transition only needed one day—terrifying.
"Not everyone can perform wormhole transitions." Lu Chen seed to read Wang Xu’s thoughts, "The Law Enforcent Elder possesses a warship-type treasure, fast enough to travel through wormholes. If the speed slows down, there’s no qualification to enter the wormhole."
"Did you see the storm blowing towards us? These storms can instantly pulverize you to dust!"
"Therefore, in the Cosmos, only those at the Celestial God Realm are qualified to undergo wormhole transitions, and even then, only if they possess a Divine Treasure."
Wang Xu finally understood that wormhole transitions were so difficult, which explained why he’d never seen them before.
"Wang Xu, you’ve encountered an assassination attempt by the Dark Holy Banquet before. Tell us about the specifics." The Law Enforcent Elder let the boat travel through the wormhole tunnel without intervention, asking Wang Xu to recount the assassination incident for so strategies to handle it.
Wang Xu nodded, recounting the incident with the black-robed figure after departing from the Bailan Cosmic Country.
...
A day’s ti flew by swiftly.
"We’ve arrived." The Law Enforcent Elder waved his hand, and a distant black hole appeared. The wooden boat rushed out directly, and then their surroundings changed abruptly—not the colorful and splendid tunnel, but a silent, vast, and boundless Cosmos.
"Desolate Fire Cosmic Country." Wang Xu gazed at the distant red star, where the headquarters of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion resided, the Desolate Fire Cosmic Country. Wang Xu had t Brother Red Sword here and, under his guidance, had entered the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion.
The wooden boat flew towards Desolate Fire Cosmic Country.
Suddenly—
"Corpses strewn everywhere!"
"Blood Vine!"
"Tiger-Biting Slash!"
"..."
In the void, seven black-robed figures exuding Divine aura appeared. The instant the wooden boat entered the encirclent, they launched a fierce attack!
The sky was full of brilliance like a dazzling nebula, the terrifying aura making Wang Xu’s body tremble violently.
Dark Holy Banquet!
They hadn’t given up on assassinating Wang Xu and had dispatched seven Celestial God Realm figures at once.
"Damn it!" The Law Enforcent Elder’s eyes widened with anger. Right ahead was the headquarters of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion and the teleport point of the Heaven-Reaching Sacred Cosmos. To execute an assassination here, using precisely seven Celestial God Realm figures, the Dark Holy Banquet was blatantly provoking the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion!
Lu Chen and Wang Xu were shocked. Such a terrifying lineup could not be resisted by relying solely on the Law Enforcent Elder.
"River of Ti!"
"Extre Cold Light!"
"Unification of Many Lines!"
"..."
At the sa ti, a Gate of Space-Ti appeared, and from it stepped out a total of thirteen Celestial God Realm figures!
The thirteen Celestial God Realm figures directly engaged with the seven black-robed figures of the Dark Holy Banquet, instantly shattering the void. Large sections began collapsing, and a violent space-ti storm surged, erupting with a strong pulling force.
Wang Xu and the others’ eyes lit up. These thirteen Celestial God Realm figures were none other than disciples of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion.
The wooden boat swiftly moved forward, leaving the battlefield and heading towards the Desolate Fire Cosmic Country.
"The Dark Holy Banquet is not just about assassination; it’s about provoking the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion." After a brief mont of thought, Lu Chen imdiately understood why the Dark Holy Banquet had set up an ambush here.
The Dark Holy Banquet killed a talented disciple of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion at its doorstep, thereby eliminating a threat, tarnishing the Pavilion’s reputation, and even inciting the wrath of the Pavilion’s higher-ups... killing three birds with one stone.
Fortunately, the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion was not just passively taking a hit; they also dispatched thirteen Celestial God Realm figures.
"Mission failed, retreat!" Seeing the wooden boat swiftly departing, the seven black-robed figures realized they couldn’t catch up with their speed and were likely to die under the siege of the thirteen Celestial God Realm figures. They imdiately decided to retreat.
Wang Xu, witnessing this scene, felt his own powerlessness, clenching his fists tightly.
First in the qualification battle, a disciple of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, an inheritor of the Endless Inheritance... These glorious honors that seed magnificent to many Cosmic Martial Artists now ant nothing.
Faced with the assassination of the Dark Holy Banquet, Wang Xu had no ans to resist. With seven Celestial God Realm figures attacking him, Wang Xu felt as if he had one foot already in death, his life no longer in his own hands.
Wang Xu loathed this feeling of powerlessness.
"Open the Gate of Space-Ti!" From afar, the Law Enforcent Elder’s voice was transmitted to the disciples of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion guarding outside the Gate of Space-Ti.
The scene before Wang Xu suddenly changed as he once again entered the Heaven-Reaching Sacred Cosmos, over eight hundred years since the last ti.
"The Heaven-Reaching Pavilion still looks the sa." Lu Chen, the senior brother, glanced around, taking a sip of wine.
Wang Xu remained silent, carried by the wooden boat to the Main Hall.
After stepping off the wooden boat, the figure of an elder with white hair appeared on the Main Hall, wearing a golden crown and standing on golden clouds, a five-foot cyan sword strapped to his back.
"Hall Master."
"Greetings to the Hall Master of the Cyan Yang Hall."
"Hall Master."
The Law Enforcent Elder, Lu Chen, and Brother Luo Shou all respectfully saluted the white-haired elder, while Wang Xu hesitated, his eyes dim, and belatedly perford a courtesy.
"Wang Xu." Qing Zhang spoke, his voice resonant.
Wang Xu raised his head, eting Qing Zhang’s gaze.
"This assassination attempt by the Dark Holy Banquet concerns your life. You are a disciple of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion and can temporarily reside in the Heaven-Reaching Sacred Cosmos until you have enough strength to face the crisis before leaving," Qing Zhang said calmly. "During this period, you are not allowed to leave the Heaven-Reaching Sacred Cosmos on your own. Understand?"
"I understand, Master." Wang Xu nodded.
"Good, Luo Shou, take him away then." As the words fell, Qing Zhang’s figure gradually dissipated and disappeared.
Wang Xu sighed lightly in his heart, then followed Brother Luo Shou to his Palace Mansion.
"You should be familiar with these. I won’t explain too much. If you encounter any difficulties, co to my Palace Mansion to find ," said Brother Luo Shou before turning and leaving.
"Junior Brother Wang Xu, I’ll head to the White Sun Hall first." Lu Chen, being a disciple of the White Sun Hall, naturally needed to proceed to the White Sun Hall area.
Once both left, Wang Xu was the only one left in this Palace Mansion.
"Let’s settle the humans first."
The Seventy-Two Halls of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion were scattered across this end of the Sacred Cosmos, while on the other end of the Heaven-Reaching Sacred Cosmos existed an entirely different world, inhabited by mortals, Cosmic Martial Artists, which Wang Xu had not known during his last visit, as it was the Law Enforcent Elder who inford him.
Stepping onto the Teleportation Platform, Wang Xu instantly arrived at the other end of the Sacred Cosmos, the so-called "Mortal Realm" that the disciples of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion ntioned.
He found a picturesque, open area with abundant Cosmic Energy, devoid of other life forms within millions of miles. With a wave of his hand, he scattered 1.9 billion Earthlings across this land.
"A great land!"
"Is this truly the great land?"
"Such dense Cosmic Energy!"
The humans’ clamor spread as they marveled in awe.
"Who are you people?! How dare you trespass into Lord Balrog’s domain, are you courting death?!" Suddenly, a furious voice rang from the horizon, piercing through the clouds, reaching the ears of all the humans. (To be continued.
