Has this guy gone mad?
Even Zi Yue was certain that the creatures within those transparent jade stones were extrely troubleso. Once released, they might be even more terrifying than the ten thousand flood dragons outside the palace.
Is this guy planning a mutual destruction?
But the other party changed course too quickly, and the distance between them was already quite short. Even with Murong’s speed, there was no ti to react, and all he could do was watch helplessly as Chen Qing crashed into the transparent jade wall!
However, an unbelievable scene occurred!
Instead of the imagined shattering and explosion, Chen Qing, wrapped in huge vapor, suddenly disappeared into the transparent jade screen. That jade screen, which was supposed to isolate countless monsters, was unexpectedly as pliant as water, causing even the well-inford Zi Yue to be dumbfounded, unable to react for a mont.....
What’s going on here?
"Not chasing?" Murong asked, even though he was also stunned, he still asked imdiately.
Because once Chen Qing was out of sight, finding him again might be more difficult than ascending to heaven!
"Chase?" Bai Yu calmly said, "Don’t rush into action recklessly. This Chen surna is tricky and has extensive information on these ancient matters. That Nine Heavens Mirror Valley, unknown to us for tens of thousands of years, was fully under his control. If he wasn’t so young, I’d suspect he was the one who created the Nine Heavens Mirror Valley himself!"
Hearing this, Murong forcefully suppressed his own impulse to chase after him. Indeed, that was the case. The jade screen that obviously trapped so many monsters should be incredibly sturdy. Yet in Chen Qing’s hands, it was softer than water, and he had just broken through into it.
The things inside were so horrifying that just one glance made one’s scalp go numb—who would dare to chase after him?
"No, wait!"
While Bai Yu and Murong were scared stiff at first, Zi Yue suddenly stepped forward, poked the jade screen with a finger, and with a surge of powerful energy through the fingertip, even her hand followed suit like Chen Qing’s, sinking directly into it!
"Zi Yue?" Murong imdiately widened his eyes in surprise.
"So that’s it!" Zi Yue’s eyes flashed with sharpness. "This is a spatial array, hurry up and follow. Otherwise, once we get thrown off by Chen Qing, the three of us can only wait for death!"
-----------------------------------
"That was close..."
Wrapped in a huge gale, Chen Qing entered the jade screen and then let out a slight sigh of relief.
Although this version was different from his mory, it was still iterative based on his own intentions and exactly the sa as what he envisioned. The place that trapped countless monsters was a massive spatial array. It was nearly impossible for the things inside to get out, but quite easy for people outside to enter.
Thankfully, this part hadn’t changed, otherwise if his attempt to enter just now had failed, he might have been captured by Zi Yue and the others.
Considering this, he quickly looked around. In the original version, the terrifying creatures of the Dragon Palace were supposed to erge and wreak havoc after the Dragon Palace replica concluded. Initially, these creatures were embryos frozen within the Ice Jade unique to the Dragon Palace, and it wasn’t until they were taken out by players that they began causing horrific slaughters in the world of n.
However, the company’s boss was not very satisfied with this setting, feeling that it lacked impact. After all, the terrifying weapons that the dragons had been researching for thousands of years would only begin to slowly revive after they reached the outside world, which lacked the imdiacy of the other ancient replicas where natural disasters struck imdiately.
Because the boss said so, Chen Qing then had to work overti to change it, resulting in the current design.
In the previous setting, the top-grade jade stones hidden at the core of the Dragon Palace were no longer inside the subterranean mines but were taken out to create these cages for biological weapons.
This design was more logical because it wouldn’t make sense if the Dragon Palace had such a huge reserve of jade stones and didn’t use them.
But while it made sense, the difficulty was significantly higher than before.
If it were the original version, Chen Qing would just need to find the mine, and then locate the particular biological weapon he needed to take away the largest resource of the Dragon Palace. But now, he had to search for that thing within this array!
Wuuu wuuu.....
As he pondered, a strange sound wave ca from the distance, and Chen Qing imdiately noticed that the entire sea surface began to shake.
Chen Qing, without hesitation, fired a blast of energy at the jade bi that seed to be within arm’s reach in the distance. The next second, a line of Han characters unique to the Human Race appeared on the jade bi: "Heavenly Ghost Octopus, Unsealing Day: 48,000 years and 276 days!"
Looking at the words, Chen Qing’s body shivered slightly.
The biological weapons were put together in a rush at the ti, so most of the monster models were hastily made by subordinates, a bit rough but simple and brute. In fact, many were quite easy to deal with, after all, they were to let most players gain their legacy and farm experience.
However, to add so difficulty, so of the creatures within were more troubleso, belonging to the category he had personally crafted about five or six different types.
And as it happened, the Heavenly Ghost Octopus was one of the representative ones!
Octopus-kind creatures often appear in monster movies, and their unique shape, when magnified, gives a feeling similar to the Krusu, so many alien movies directly use octopuses as base models because of their incredible nature.
Nine brains, two sets of mory systems—many biologists believe that octopuses might not belong to Earth because of these features.
Therefore, they are frequently used for monster models.
The Heavenly Ghost Octopus I designed was at a bug level. Once it revived from the Ice Jade and had an ample food supply, it could evolve and expand infinitely, its size almost without limit, becoming a mobile tectonic-level disaster monster. I recall that in several servers, this monster grew to a nearly indestructible size and devoured all the Human Race, destroying four or five servers!
Thinking of this, Chen Qing didn’t hesitate to compress the wind energy and quickly moved towards the bright area. But as fast as his reaction was, the creature’s was faster. From the darkness, countless tentacles ca densely packed, taking up the entire space. The suction cups on the tentacles stirred up a chaotic storm in the surrounding seawater, making Chen Qing’s wind energy go wild and getting sucked down!
------------------------------------
"What is this?"
Murong and the others, following Zi Yue inside, frowned as they looked at the endlessly vast dark sea area.
Because just now, when Murong looked back trying to find the way they ca, the jade bi, which seed so close, appeared infinitely far, unreachable no matter how hard she tried.
But they had just co in; the distance was only a few ters, right?
"Just as I thought..." Zi Yue, looking at the glass-like jade bi all around her that seed like a fish tank yet forever out of reach, suddenly understood it all.
"What’s the situation?" Murong asked.
"Spatial Cage!"
"Spatial Cage?" Bai Yu also showed a flicker of confusion at Zi Yue’s answer.
"It’s quite similar to the Nine Heavens Mirror, but this is even more exaggerated," Zi Yue explained. "This should be what the Dragon Palace truly excels at. Think about it, didn’t Chen Qing establish that academy focusing mainly on Arrays?"
"Indeed..." Bai Yu looked around: "The Arrays of Chen Qing’s forces, with Rune Stones as the dium, storing enough Art Energy, allowed a re Fifth Rank low-level Technique to be deployed quickly as a First Rank level Technique, relying on Arrays and the art of Runes!"
Zi Yue: "Chen Qing’s legacy mostly cos from the Dragon Palace, so he could use Rune Stones to set up the exaggerated Array that envelops Nanming Prefecture, deterring Siao Mingxue and forces like the Imperial Court. And within this Dragon Palace, it goes further. Rune Stones can gather Art Energy, Arrays can create effects of Art Energy a hundred tis larger than a single person’s Technique. The Dragon Palace must be a leader in this area. The vast quantity of Jade Stones we see here are likely collected by the Dragon Palace Forces in ancient tis. Their quality far surpasses that of the so-called Imperial Green Jadeite found in the human world today!"
"And the reason why so many Biological Weapons could be trapped isn’t just because of these massive amounts of Rune Stones, but also because of the Spatial Array personally set up by the Dragon Palace Forces."
Zi Yue looked around: "These monsters give the impression, each capable of causing turmoil in the human world, so to house them, you need a space and ecosystem broad enough. If I’m not mistaken, the space inside this Array might be comparable to the size of the Central Plains, or even larger!"
"This?" Murong and Straw Man were both stunned, clearly unable to comprehend how a space larger than the Central Plains could be hidden in a palace. What kind of ability was that?
"In the Western Regions, the Buddhist Sects have a concept called ’Buddha Kingdom in a Palm,’" Zi Yue spoke in a low voice. "There are rumors that top-level Buddhas, by using their Divine Skills, can compress a massive kingdom into the size of a palm, looking down upon the human world. These ancients, to so extent, must have dabbled in this sort of spatial talent. Otherwise, it’s hard to explain how the world of the past could sustain such beings!"
"The truth of this world might be..."
"The truth?" said Bai Yu, looking at Zi Yue: "What do you know?"
While they were speaking, suddenly they too felt the whole space shake. The next instant, countless tentacles surged out of the darkness, rolling towards them from all directions.
