Chapter 1725 Where Are You?
Fengdu.
Tomorrow morning, Naifan will enter the Wucheng Celestial Palace.
Inside the vast hall, a black coffin has been opened. The girl who had spent two thousand years here left this place several years ago. Since then, no one has set foot in this Fengdu Celestial Palace.
Dong—Dong—Dong!!
Deep bell tolls transmitted from outside the palace, three consecutive resonant sounds, then disappeared without a trace.
The next moment, the entire palace began to shake violently!
A hideous crack suddenly tore open on the smooth floor. Next to the coffin where Jialan once slept, a red coffin slowly rose from the trembling fissure in the ground.
Bang!
The lid of the red coffin suddenly burst open, a hand extended from within, and moments later, a figure in gray clothing slowly stood up…
“Has it been fifty years…” the figure murmured.
He turned to look at the coffin that once belonged to Jialan, reminiscence appearing in his eyes. He stepped toward the outside of the palace when suddenly, his footsteps paused in mid-air.
A brilliant golden law extended from nothingness, filling the entire palace with a familiar and sacred aura. It circled around the figure, as if telling something…
“Michael is dead?” His brows slightly furrowed, and after a moment’s hesitation, he raised his palm.
A strand of causality thread wove across the surface of this law, braiding it into a golden cord that wrapped around his wrist. The light gradually receded, completely concealing the aura of the law.
He gazed deeply at the golden cord, then stepped toward the outside of the palace. Several strands of causality thread entwined around his tattered, decayed gray robe, visibly transforming into a deep red cloak that fluttered slightly in the wind as he walked.
“The gods have protected us for too long… This time, it’s humanity’s turn to act.”
…
In the boundless deep space, a dark gray light pillar erupted from a lunar crater, instantly sweeping across half the star system.
As this gray light pillar dissipated, a blood-red color rapidly spread from the crater, gradually dyeing the entire moon red. A terrifying and frenzied aura descended upon the universe!
“This is bad, a corner of the lunar seal has been broken!”
The Moral Heavenly Venerable saw that bit of writhing darkness in the center of the mountain, and his expression immediately became extremely grave.
“Is it possible to repair it?”
“That’s a seal left by Heaven. No one can fix it except Michael.”
Before the words faded, a huge eye opened from within that darkness. The bizarre blood-colored pupil rapidly rotated in the void, finally locking onto the Heavenly Court in mid-air. Then, a wolf’s head occupied the gap, howling into deep space, and finally a mountain-sized worm head squeezed past the wolf’s head, frantically drilling out!
The moon now resembled a sealed prison with a hole. All prisoners sealed within this prison wanted to crawl out through this gap. In just a moment, the gods of Great Xia saw at least four different Ke-system deities!
In the dead silence of deep space, the first escaped Ke-system deity was exposed on the grayish-white ground. It was a massive worm large enough to coil around the crater, without a tail, with ferocious mouthed heads at both ends. Seeming to sense the Heavenly Court’s approach, both heads began to howl silently.
Next, a giant wolf transformed into a blur, leaping nimbly from the gap. Its fur resembled elongated tentacles, stirring in the void, flashing past the edge of the crater toward the other side of the moon. Meanwhile, its form gradually faded, completely disappearing from view.
“Nodens-Yidike and Musishas,” Jiang Ziya said gravely.
Having walked the mortal realm for several years specifically gathering intelligence on Ke-system deities, he could recognize these two monsters at a glance.
“That worm is manageable, but the invisible giant wolf behind it is more troublesome. It even dares to challenge the [Key to the Gate]… Legend has it, it possesses the power to break through horn-shaped spacetime and curved spacetime.”
Before his words ended, the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth Ke-system deities flew out from the gap, heading straight for the Heavenly Court along with the initial two-headed worm!
“What do we do now?” Jiang Ziya asked solemnly.
“What else can we do,” the Primordial Heavenly Venerable sighed. “Face them head-on…”
“Yes.”
As the Primordial Heavenly Venerable’s words fell, streams of light flew out from the Heavenly Court. The Jade Emperor, Fengdu Emperor, Sun Wukong, Yang Jian, Queen Mother of the West, and numerous Golden Immortals joined forces, charging toward the five Ke-system deities crossing the void!
Brilliant divine light and violent giant shadows collided in deep space. Meanwhile, two more Ke-system gods escaped and rushed toward the battlefield!
“This won’t work,” the Numinous Treasure Heavenly Venerable frowned. “Ke-system gods’ combat power far exceeds Earth’s main gods. That lunar seal still contains at least thirty more… If they all crawl out from the gap, even five Heavenly Courts combined might not be able to stop them all!
We must find a way to seal that gap.”
“Seal it? With what?”
As the Moral Heavenly Venerable spoke, as if realizing something, his expression changed. “You mean… the Heavenly Court?”
“The Heavenly Court is a mobile divine country, carrying the origin of Great Xia mythology. If we directly press the Heavenly Court onto the gap, we can prevent more Ke-system gods from emerging, at least controlling the situation from worsening.”
“Too dangerous. The Heavenly Court carries our origin. If it can’t withstand the impact of the Ke-system gods, we’ll all die!”
“Still better than letting all the Ke-system gods escape!”
The Numinous Treasure Heavenly Venerable’s face was extremely serious. “Here’s the plan: you two go stop [Chaos] from further expanding the seal’s gap… I’ll take the Heavenly Court alone to suppress the existing gap, preventing more Ke-system gods from escaping.”
“Can you manage alone?” the Primordial Heavenly Venerable asked gravely.
“I can…” The Numinous Treasure Heavenly Venerable took a deep breath, terrifying divine might emanating from within. His Taoist robe moved without wind. “Don’t forget… I am now Earth’s strongest combatant, just one step away from that realm. Only I can hold the gap!”
“Very well.” The Primordial Heavenly Venerable hesitated no more. “Then we leave it to you.”
The Primordial and Moral Heavenly Venerables transformed into two blurs, rapidly charging toward the crater’s perimeter. All Great Xia gods went to intercept the escaping Ke-system gods, leaving the entire Heavenly Court empty.
The Numinous Treasure Heavenly Venerable opened his palm… a white chess piece lay quietly in his palm.
Looking at this chess piece, his eyes revealed helplessness. He then put away the piece and controlled the entire Heavenly Court, flying toward the moon burning with the cyan [Nightfall] mark!
“The mark of [Nightfall] has appeared… where are you all?”
