Demon Sword Sect's Undercover-Chapter 821 - 820 The Great Void Star
Chapter 821: Chapter 820 The Great Void Star
Even when Xiang Anshi was leaving, he was still somewhat distracted, completely enchanted by the future painted by Hou Niao’s exaggerations, emotion and spirit in disarray. If it were all true, an alliance would indeed be unnecessary, because the entire Jinxiu Continent would naturally become one entity, united against the cosmic visitors.
But what if it’s false? Just an illusion? This guy succeeded in turning down his invitation with a mere speculation, and he couldn’t even feel dissatisfied about it.
Truly cunning to the extreme.
A bit sensational, but upon careful consideration, it does make sense; after all, it’s the Outer Heaven Universe, how could they care about these ants fighting underground?
Leaving with a mind full of thoughts, for some reason, he has no further interest in the alliance; such a bizarre conjecture cannot be easily shared, hence it can only fester in his mind, waiting for the final puzzle to be solved.
The chaotic alliance continues vaguely, but people’s attention is drawn to another more terrifying matter—the hole above Sui Mo City is becoming larger and clearer.
Due to the absence of clouds and atmosphere, the void outside is exceptionally clear to them.
The cosmic void has opened a window before them, but outside the window, there’s nothing—just infinite darkness and faintly visible stars.
As time passes day by day, a light spot within the gigantic celestial hole grows larger, flying straight towards the Jinxiu terrain; even those on Jinxiu with little cosmic experience can roughly guess what’s happening.
A large star is heading towards Jinxiu Continent.
Will it collide? No one knows for sure, but given the calm demeanor of the Heavenly Heart Pavilion and such a special temporal window, everyone tends to think it’s just one of the phenomena from when Spiritual Green fell, thus not overly panicked. fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm
Once the light spot brightened to a certain extent, it began to fade, seeming to have vanished for a few days. Just as everyone unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, a massive celestial body appeared within the hole, its surface full of craters, an aura of desolate silence from the outer universe sweeping over.
Approaching closely, it sheds its light, instead revealing its true face; by this time, everyone understands that the giant star is aimed at the Jinxiu terrain, only it’s a barren star devoid of human habitation.
There are countless speculations, none of them reliable because the Jinxiu cultivators lack experience beyond the universe, so all their conjectures are purely imaginative. In this regard, the Nascent Transformation Masters and Tongtian Realm junior cultivators are no different.
Everything went beyond expectations, and the Heavenly Heart Pavilion gave no definite solutions; they’re merely steeped in mystery, not omniscient concerning the universe.
Will this giant star directly crash, shattering the earthly barrier of Jinxiu Continent?
Anticipation grows more intense.
And it seems under such anticipation, the star’s speed slows?
This is not an illusion but a conclusion that every cultivator with a touch of physics can discern.
The giant surface fully covers the hole, drawing closer, people can only see its mottled surface, eventually catching sight of just a single crater through the hole.
Ten days remain, the truth is close at hand.
Other than those observing cultivators of all sizes, nearly a thousand True Disciples from Jinxiu Continent stepped out of their rooms, sensing a loosening restriction against flight, even allowing cultivators to barely maneuver?
Under such earthly phenomena, none can maintain calmness; the True Inheritors hover in low skies beneath a massive opening, twelve Constellation True Inheritors atop, as if attempting to block the hole with their frail bodies.
Foresight suggests they must adapt to this pressure early, and they have realized it.
As the giant star draws near, through the large hole, everyone perceives the impending massive pressure—how many trillion-trillion-trillion-jin of force, that not only petty humans but the entire Shangyu Country would become dust under such pressure.
Everyone now has the crisis awareness like Hou Niao did initially; by this point, connections among various Daoist traditions have become insignificant, they more embody a collective representing Jinxiu Continent.
Together are not just them but also the Jinxiu Nascent Transformation Masters flocking to Sui Mo City, some arrived early, some drawn by premonitions not willing to miss this rare millennial encounter with the cosmic void at close range.
They did their utmost to probe the opening, finding their flight lower than Tongtian Realm cultivators, another counter-domain suppression just like the falling earth-water Spiritual Pearls.
Apparently, only mortals are immune, but mortals can’t fly, it’s a deadlock.
Waiting is tormenting, especially under circumstances of knowing nothing and being powerless to act.
Among the twelve Constellation True Inheritors, Hou Niao is the only restless one, opposite other constellations facing the looming threat solemnly, he occasionally descends to converse with friends.
The nearest True Disciples to him are the Shan Sect and North Anhe True Disciples, Daoist Jian, Fang Yazi, Mao Qifeng, Bian Xingzhi, Wei Gu, Zu Yong, most being new True Disciples from Shan Sect Quanzhen, not very familiar with him.
Among the original True Disciples, only Wei Gu and Zu Yong remain, others replaced; among his friends, except for the singular Fang Yazi, Wang Mian and Zong Qian have sufficient mana cultivation, yet practice Body Sword Skill too briefly, unable to form combat power, while Li Shipeng and Nan Xiangye’s combined strength still lags, Rao Zongzhi and Hai Xixi have no interest in this.
These individuals instinctively draw closer to him, not just due to previous acts, but also the tremendous pressure conveyed by the outer giant star.
"Xiao Zhen said, he senses spatially transmitted energy from the star’s direction, the energy is slowly intensifying..."
Hou Niao furrows his brow, "So, outer immortals are wrapping gifts for us? Special delicacies? Or celestial Immortal Wine?"
"This isn’t amusing, you need to be serious, it’s not time for jokes." Daoist Jian firmly retorts.
"If being serious could solve it, I’d be serious." Hou Niao speaks flippantly in serious words, "Afraid there’s trouble ahead, just play it by ear, somehow this luck seems cursed; it wasn’t like this before, easily leading Spiritual Green from outer space, now it’s a spectacle too grand—had I foreseen, why strive for True Inheritor status, why not stay down below and enjoy the show?"
Fang Yazi aptly adds, "If you were below, it’d be those down below cursed, so it’s not a matter of luck, purely human caused."
Hou Niao glared at him, "Wings grown hard, huh? Watch and follow my lead when the time comes."
