Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 857 - 856: Pegasus Star

"Yes, yes, take care, Lord Hua!"

Daoist Black Dragon said respectfully, with an extremely humble attitude. Lord Hua remained silent, his steps seemed slow but actually light and swift, disappearing in the blink of an eye at the end of the tunnel hall.

Once Lord Hua left, Daoist Black Dragon raised his authority, emanating an extremely cold aura, and coldly questioned the blood-clothed man who had come to report.

"Did you see everything just now?"

Facing Daoist Black Dragon's interrogation, the blood-clothed man immediately broke out in a cold sweat, his body trembling uncontrollably. He knew well Daoist Black Dragon's nature, being cruel and ruthless, sometimes even massacring a family for a treasure.

"I saw nothing, absolutely nothing!"

The blood-clothed man instantly denied, knowing that if the scene just now were to spread, it would undoubtedly cause a massive uproar in the entire Black Dragon's lair, damaging Daoist Black Dragon's prestige. It was widely known that Daoist Black Dragon valued his reputation greatly, and at this moment, he understood very clearly what to say and what not to say.

"Hmm!"

Daoist Black Dragon slightly nodded, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

Boom!

But just as the blood-clothed man was about to react, a terrifying black palm tore violently from the Void, grabbing the blood-clothed man's body and ripping it apart, even his True Spirit was completely exterminated.

"Hmph, only dead men can keep secrets!"

Sitting in the grand hall, Daoist Black Dragon's eyes glinted with fierceness.

Having mingled in the Cosmos for so long, Daoist Black Dragon, despite his wicked deeds, continued to live well, thanks to his meticulous and flawless manner.

The blood-clothed man was merely a pawn, who knows if he would leak information, therefore, to be on the safe side, the blood-clothed man definitely couldn't be allowed to live.

...

Aboard the Guo family spaceship, Chu Ming spent most of his time in his room, in seclusion for cultivation. Occasionally, when he emerged and encountered the Guo family guards on the spaceship, they were no longer as casual as before, there was now a hint of constraint between their brows.

This is ultimately a world where strength reigns supreme. Although Chu Ming once possessed a cultivation level of half-step Emperor Dao, the gap between them wasn't very large, but when Chu Ming displayed the combat power of Emperor Dao Second Layer, even Emperor Dao Third Layer, a chasm formed between them.

Ten days after the small team's interception by the Black Dragon's lair, standing on the Guo family spaceship and gazing afar, Chu Ming could finally see a fiery red planet.

"Is this Pegasus Star?"

Looking at Pegasus Star, Chu Ming was deeply shocked. Pegasus Star, its area is tens of thousands of times that of Celestial Martial Continent, and this is only one planet. In the Cosmos, planets like Pegasus Planet are not in the tens of millions, but millions.

"I wonder what Brother Chu plans to do after reaching Pegasus Star?"

Third Elder walked out from the command room and asked Chu Ming.

"I plan to rest a bit on Pegasus Star, then teleport to Celestial Net Star and join Nine Elements Dao Palace!"

Chu Ming did not hide his intentions, what he meant by resting was breaking through to the Emperor Realm on Pegasus Star. Since leaving Celestial Martial Continent, he's had the urge to break through, only he has been suppressing it.

Once reaching Pegasus Star, he intends to find a secluded place and make a breakthrough to the Emperor Realm. This way, when traveling the Cosmos, he'll have some means of self-protection.

Furthermore, after breaking through to the Emperor Realm, he intends to sell the Nine Nether Lamp, Forbidden Blood Ring, and Blood Blade Godslaying Slash, and buy an Imperial Treasure Sword.

"Then this old man wishes Brother Chu good luck!"

Third Elder's eyes lit up, kindly congratulating.

In his view, Chu Ming joining Nine Elements Dao Palace is essentially a sure thing, the Outer Palace poses no problem, and as for the Inner Palace, it depends on Chu Ming's future development.

The Outer Palace disciples of Nine Elements Dao Palace mostly have Emperor Dao Third or Fourth Layer cultivation, while Inner Palace disciples are below Emperor Dao, with the last Core Disciples having Saint Dao cultivation, capable of earth-shattering feats.

Each Core Disciple of Nine Elements Dao Palace can casually establish a force and quickly turn it into a Fifth Grade force.

"Thank you, Third Elder, for your kind words!"

Chu Ming cupped his hands, exchanged a few pleasantries with Third Elder, then turned and returned to his room.

A day later, the spaceship entered the sky of Pegasus Star. At a glance, the entire Pegasus Star was filled with dense constructions, while countless hidden auras were lurking in dark corners. Just from Chu Ming's perception, Pegasus Star alone harbored thousands of Emperor Dao powerhouses.

"Truly worthy of being the center of Pegasus Star System!"

Chu Ming sighed inwardly, but then thinking further, he realized having thousands of Emperor Dao powerhouses on Pegasus Star was very normal.

In the entire Cosmos, ordinary cultivation methods are common knowledge, making nearly everyone a Martial Artist. With Pegasus Star having at least a population of billions, the ratio of Emperor Dao powerhouses among them is only one in ten thousand, meaning only one out of ten thousand Martial Artists is an Emperor Dao powerhouse.

Moreover, Pegasus Star, being the center of Pegasus Star System, its cultivation is naturally more prosperous than elsewhere, and if one calculates the Emperor Dao powerhouse ratio for the entire Pegasus Star System, it's estimated to be less than one in a hundred thousand.

Among these thousands of Emperor Dao powerhouses, only a few can eventually advance to become Saint Dao powerhouses, highlighting the rarity of Saint Dao powerhouses.

Rumble!

As Chu Ming mused, the Guo family spaceship navigated into a docking port, where powerful purple-robed Martial Artists flew out from the port and shouted at the Guo family spaceship.

"Is this the Iron River Star System's Guo Family spaceship ahead?"

The leading purple-robed Martial Artist was elderly and frail, yet his imposing presence was not weakened at all, causing his long robe to flutter loudly with the strong wind.

"Greetings to the lords of Purple Gold Trading Company, I am indeed Guo Family's Third Elder, responsible for the complete affairs of this spaceship transport!"

Guo Family's Third Elder flew out from the command room, respectfully cupping his hands, and spoke to the leading elder of Purple Gold Trading Company.

"Hmm, your ship may dock!"

The leading elder of Purple Gold Trading Company nodded slightly and instructed Guo Family's Third Elder.

Guo Family's Third Elder did not dare show any disrespect. Firstly, Purple Gold Trading Company is a top Second Grade force in the Cosmos, and secondly, the leading elder's cultivation is clearly superior to his own, even surpassing Guo Family's ancestor by a notch, being at least an Emperor Dao Fifth Layer powerhouse.

"Third Elder, farewell for now!"

Once the Guo family spaceship docked, Chu Ming jumped down from the spaceship, bade farewell to Guo Family's Third Elder, and headed toward Pegasus Star's commercial district.

Pegasus Star is divided into Cultivation Area, Commercial Area, and Residential Area.

In fact, most planets are divided this way, as it facilitates unified management.
