Star Gate-Chapter 993: Successful Creation (III)
Chapter 993: Successful Creation (III)
A second sun seemed to appear throughout the world on this day. Countless martial masters that’d comprehended the aura sensed its existence. They looked blankly at the sky, feeling the sun above them, but also feeling it in their heart!
It was a very peculiar sensation, like the sun in the sky was the one of their heart.
......
Silver Moon, the Tiger Wings.
Many people tilted their heads to the sky—Hu Dingfang and Li Hao’s senior sister Chen Yuhua were also looking at the sky. Their presences grew steadily as both operated the Breathing Method of the Five Styles.
“These stars... have appeared rather abruptly,” Hu Dingfang murmured. “They are tremendously important, but why do I think that they have something to do with the Five Styles?”
Next to him, Chen Yuhua also took a breath. “I don’t know, but I feel the same way too. Perhaps they have something to do with master or... my little junior brother.”
“But how can this be... The sun has appeared so suddenly... and is like the sun...” Hu Dingfang frowned. Although he thought the two to be related, how was that possible?
......
In another locale.
Director General Zhao was also looking at the sky, a frown on his face. Anything unusual was indicative of a conspiracy afoot. The key was that when he closed his eyes, he seemed to see a god!
Indeed, a god!
There was someone seated on the sun while the stars revolved around him. He seemed to be the master of heaven and earth—it was quite a stunning sight.
Although it was a few simple images, it was enough to shake him.
Also, why... did that person seem so much like Li Hao? How was that possible?? Wasn’t Li Hao in Skystar City and focused on having everyone build roads?
Director General Zhao shook his head to himself, constantly repeating that this was an illusion. To think that even he would see a mirage after this sun appeared!
His form flickered as he entered an ancient city. Figures rose from it in response.
“Director General Zhao, why are there changes again in the outside world?” someone asked. “Do you know what’s going on?”
“I wanted to come ask you.” The director general shook his head.
A towering tree in the middle of the city emanated faint radiance. It transmitted weakly, “It might be that a new dao is about to appear with the great star illuminating the world. Dao heritage is newly established, core origin is no more, a new era is to come!”
A faint shadow appeared, one that resembled a hunched over crone. She tightly gripped a cane and tilted her head back at the sky. “Who can establish another great dao thousands of years later? Or are these changes in the world a new dao established by the world itself?”
“What do you mean by these words, revered one?” asked Director General Zhao.
“The appearance of a new dao means that the new era is about to arrive... Or rather, that the time of the Heavenly Emperor is about to commence! There may be opportunities to be found everywhere from today forth. One’s fortune can be made anywhere, and anyone who grasps them in hand will ascend to the heavens in one step!
“What a pity that we walk the path of core origin and will likely lack such chances... From henceforth, all new humans of the modern era will have these opportunities!”
“Not necessarily.” Director General Zhao raised an eyebrow with a smile.
The crone looked at the sky again instead of saying anything. “What a pity...” she murmured after a long while. “But you still have opportunities. Do you sense anything different?”
“Not much, just that cultivation seems to be easier lately,” the director general responded after some thought.
“Precisely!” concurred the crone. “The new dao might have something to do with martial masters!”
“Since no one here knows, I’ll take a look outside,” Director General Zhao quickly responded. “Additionally, the world has become more stable and the energy within the surroundings is denser these days. Even the revered one has naturally revitalized. It looks like that will be the same for all of the major families soon. When the world stabilizes, I hope that everyone will lend a hand to Silver Moon!”
“Naturally!” nodded the crone. “Ah, yes. A few days ago, we sensed that something might have happened to a few of the eight heritage weapons. It will be difficult to open the Star Gate again. Is there any news or clues to that?”
“A bit. Ying Hongyue and Li Hao clashed against each other and both sides detonated their weapons. Those might have been the eight heritage weapons,” the director general responded with a chuckle. “They’re both ruthless people that we cannot afford to offend... so we can only wait for everyone to emerge from seclusion.
He raised cupped fists. “Then I’ll be off first!”
“That one... does not trust us,” the guardian plant spirit said softly after the man had vanished.
“That is to be expected,” rumbled a Gold Armor. “He has always restricted our recovery rate. Even the later activated Battle Heaven has seen their General Pagoda revived. If it wasn’t for more energy being in the world lately, the revered one might have found it hard to revitalize as well. This person... ai!”
There was nothing much else to say.
The group fell silent, as did the rest of the ancient city.
......
At this moment, inside the Skystar Town ruins.
A burst of dazzling light covered Director General Wang’s new body. He roared as another universe with a couple of brilliant stars appeared behind him!
Zhang An quickly rushed to him and looked at the shadow behind the director general. “Quick, deploy your core origin dao! Stabilize the passageway and use the boxing gloves as the shell for the core origin...”
“This... is just the first body...” Pain appeared on Director General Wang’s face.
“Forget that, deploy your core origin first and stabilize the dao universe...”
“Alright!” Director General Wang said no more. A massive avenue stretched forth as Zhang An’s great dao also appeared to help the other secure the passageway.
“Imperial Guard, suppress the ripples with the projection!”
The little tree immediately summoned the projection of the imperial palace. Vice Head Qi and Yuming also popped into view, holding up a massive machine between them.
“Director General Wang, your great dao needs to be separated and the passageway to the Hao Cosmos stabilized. We’ll help your mental strength meld with the body more...”
Abject fear appeared on the director general’s face!
Fuck! Isn’t this just the first trial? Why are you starting with this already?
The two ignored him and shoved him into the machine. “Mental strength becoming one and a transfer of great dao,” the vice head said joyously. “He’ll be able to convert to a human of the new age once the dust settles...”
“Who would’ve thought that I’d be able to one day personally witness the reincarnation of mental strength and a conversion of great dao!” Yuming was also quite excited. How splendid was this!
Director General Wang struggled before he yelped with dismay, “Ouch! Martial uncle, what are you doing?”
A book was in Zhang An’s hand and a figure floated out over it. He wielded a large blade that was slicing into core origin dao. “Don’t worry, I’ll help you sever your dao. Just grin and bear it—there is bound to be some pain. It’ll be like you’re dying, but be at peace, we’ll safeguard your life!
“All plant spirits are to infuse Water of Life to maintain his life signs!” The worked up Zhang An called out to the plant spirits. “Troop leaders of the Skystar Army are to coordinate with Silver Moon martial masters to ensure that he remains calm and does not struggle...”
Multiple Silver Armors descended upon the scene, followed by large sums of Silver Moon martial masters to pin Director General Wang down where he was.
“It really hurts!!” wailed the man. Heavens above! These people were going to be the death of him!
His great dao was being severed and his physical body locked into place. His mental strength was being forced into another physical body, producing pain beyond belief. His own body seemed like it was going to explode as a peculiar strength flowed from the shadowy figure behind him.
“I’m not going through the conversion anymore!” he howled with agony. “Let me go, martial uncle!!”
The pain of death by a thousand cuts from a blunt blade was too much to bear.
“Stop cutting into me, martial uncle!” Director General Wang shrieked. “You keep going at it stroke by stroke, I can’t take it anymore!”
“As you wish.” Zhang An abruptly turned his head in the man’s direction. “I was worried that you wouldn’t be able to endure it...”
His blade descended with finality! Director General Wang’s great dao shattered with crunch; screams of untold suffering echoed before they cut off, as if the owner had died.
The projection of the imperial palace came down firmly over the great dao, refusing to let it crumble away. Zhang An’s book of dao manifested, dragging Director General Wang’s great dao and shoving it into the void.
......
At the same time, Battle Heaven.
The powerhouses all stilled at the same time. The Ninth Division leader floated into view. Everyone looked at the sky with a solemn expression.
“Wang Ye... seems to have died!” intoned the grave commander. “Has he... perished?”
The two old men had no answers for him. They could also vaguely sense it.

“He might have died,” the old turtle said slowly. “His great dao has crumbled away. The trace of core origin I left in him has fully snapped its connection with me. His core origin dao... might be gone.”
The others were silent.
Dead!
Wang Ye had gone out to protect Li Hao. If he was dead, then what of Li Hao?
Few were those who’d revitalized in Battle Heaven. Wang Ye had held down the fort for many years. While those awake hadn’t been familiar with each other at first, they were each other’s rare comrades after so many years. And today, the world changed and Wang Ye seemed to have died!
Grief overtook the three powerhouses. Thousands of soldiers pounded their chests on the city walls.
“We send off Director General Wang!” called out the sorrowful troop leaders. Another one was gone!
Thud thud thud.
Battle drums pounded and a stern ray of killing intent seeped out. Battle Heaven shook. The heavyweight who’d sat in residence for so many years was dead!
“We will take revenge on those who have killed one of Battle Heaven and a general of our city!” roared the Ninth Division leader. “It is unforgivable for my comrade and colleague to fall! I will sever a replica to set foot into the outside world. Battle Heaven Army, you will march with me!”
“Understood, sir!” The loud yells bounced off of the shining armor.
A set of gold armor manifested in the Ninth Division leader’s hand as he unsheathed his longsword. “Set forth from the city! The Reserve Defenders are hereby reclassified as the vanguard. MARCH!”
Boots thumped on the ground as thousands of soldiers mobilized. Their killing intent shook the sky. Although the two old men wanted to say something, they didn’t know what to say. The Gold Armor promptly sprinted out of the ruins with the soldiers!
