Beyond the Azure Big World, the silver castle turned into a silver filament; it broke through the hollow and headed straight into the Azure Big World.
“Bang!” Traveling at high speed, the silver filament plunged into the continuous space outside the Azure Big World.
Seen from the outer hollow of the Azure Big World, the Azure Big World looked like a big bright azure star. Its infinite space was covered with a thin layer of light gauze. It looked like it was in hiding, covering up its face, out of shyness.
Of course, it was just a feeling. Standing outside the Azure Big World, this big star seemed not too distant, but as soon as the silver castle entered the space, everything changed.
There was no big fantastic star, no specific target in sight. Everything in the space appeared to be a mystery.
However, having used such a Highest Heaven Celestial Device to cross the hollow, it was obvious that the two people were not ordinary people. They didn’t panic when they saw the endless space ahead. Instead, they seemed to take it for granted.
The man named Tai Shang was not bothered by the incessant space-time storms. The silver castle had such strong protection that the surrounding space-time storms could not harm it. They were easily shattered by the castle’s silver light.
“Void-breaking Bridge, show up!” As he raised his hand, the castle gate dropped suddenly. A silver light gushed out and turned into a silver bridge that stretched all the way into the depths of the hollow.
“Swish!” With the appearance of the silver bridge, the castle seemed to find its way easily, following the track of the silver bridge. In a blink of an eye, it broke through the barrier of spaces and the Nine Heavens Gang Wind of the Azure Big World. It dropped and appeared in the azure sky of the Azure Big World.
“Hiss!” When they first appeared, their expressions froze, their eyes widened and their pupils shrank to needle points. The muscles on their faces twitched involuntarily due to their excitement.
“No way, no way!”
Looking up at the azure clouds, both of them seemed puzzled and shocked. It was a long time before they reacted and cried out in amazement.
“It is impossible for, for, for the Sacred Land to have such a strong essence of the world!” Tai Shang’s voice trembled with excitement.
Yu Tong, who was beside him, could barely contain her excitement. “Yes, yes, it’s ten times stronger than that of the Sacred Land. Besides, this is not a small space, but a macro world. Tai Shang, we’ll really reap huge benefits here. We don’t have to do anything, just report it to the sect, give them a path map, and in return we’ll get a lot of rewards, numerous rewards!” Yu Tong’s eyes glittered as she pondered on this glorious prospect of their bright future ahead.
“This news must be reported to the sect, but before that we must plunder some of the booties before we make the report. Every macro world has boundless territory and enormous resources. And such a newly born macro world, just like the beginning of heaven and earth, will surely have a lot of precious materials. If we don’t take this opportunity to take the loot, there won’t be many opportunities in the future!”
Neither Tai Shang nor Yu Tong had any intention of taking over this macro world. They were great practitioners, who had practiced for many years. They clearly understood that it was impossible for them to monopolize such great benefits alone. Their best option was to take the biggest bite out of this cake and then report it to their sect for a reward.
“Yes, Tai Shang, you’re right. We must get all the benefits first before we report this to the sect!” Yu Tong’s eyes brightened in greed.
“Great, look at the abundance of spiritual qi, pneuma and resources. My god, what is this I see? Azure Mysterious Stones, those are Azure Mysterious Stones. It’s a mountain made entirely of Azure Mysterious Stones!”
“Did you notice the sea at your feet? It’s not ordinary water at all!”
“You’re right, this is the Azure Spirit Sea, the legendary Azure Spirit Sea! Where on earth is this place? Is it possible that there is such an incredible world? Azure Spirit Sea, right?
Yu Tong seemed to recall something unpleasant, her face suddenly set, “Is this a world that evolved from the fabled Azure Heaven?”
“The Azure Heaven, one of the 33 Heavens in the legend, the Emperor of the Azure Heaven’s Azure Heaven?”
“Yes, it is. You remember that legend, right?”
“I do remember the legend, but how many years has that been?” Tai Shang shook his head, “The idea of a micro world evolving into a macro world is just a theory; no one has ever done it. What’s more, even in theory, it takes too long. In the olden times, necromancers have calculated that it would take at least 10 billion years for a micro world to evolve into a macro world. During this period of time, no matter how terrifying the existence is, it will disappear. Even if he could control the time, he could not have achieved it up to this degree. It’s only been a few million years. It’s a long way off. It can’t be the Azure Heaven!”
“It makes sense. It can’t be the Azure Heaven. This is the Desolate Ancient Star Area containing ruins from ancient times. This macro world might have been a world seed left over those times, and it became a macro world by luck. It’s a good decision to enter the depths of the Desolate Ancient Star Area. It has such great benefits!”
“Well, let’s not waste any more time. We should look for the creator of this macro world right now. You must have felt the wild spirit. The creation of the world, though complete, should remain in a state of chaos. It will be good for our future development if we get some chaotic pneuma and creation Dharma. It will be easy to undergo six Thunder Tribulations and become a Lord of Heaven!”
“As long as we get a little bit of chaotic pneuma, we can easily undergo six Thunder Tribulations, acquire the Karmic Rank of Lord of Heaven and become the Elders in the sect!” Yu Tong nodded repeatedly, discovering for the first time that Tai Shang was so much more intelligent and calmer than she was.
“Fortunately, this time we’re using the Silver Frost Castle, otherwise, how could we ever have encountered such a lucky chance and benefits!” Tai Shang patted Yu Tong gently on the shoulder. Yu Tong glanced at him and restarted the Void-breaking Bridge.
The silver bridge stretched forth from the Silver Frost Castle into the depths of the Azure Big World.
In the tower of the Silver Frost Castle, Tai Shang and Yu Tong both looked long and hard at the Azure Spirit Sea at their feet. They stared at the mountains made entirely of Azure Mysterious Stones and at the endless treasure, and reluctantly tore their eyes away. Then they urged the Silver Frost Castle into the depths of the Azure Big World.
Meanwhile, the expression of Jing XIII, who was in consultation with a group of Demonic Immortals, suddenly changed, “Oh no, some outsiders have entered the Azure Big World!”
“What, outsiders have entered the Azure Big World?”
Several Demonic Immortals who had been sitting around stood up instantly. Most of them were subordinates of the Emperor of the Azure Heaven in the antiquity times. They knew a lot about the secrets of the hollow and the world, and they certainly understood the value of the Azure Big World. The Azure Secret Area was a marvelous place, but it was hidden away in the depths of an endless hollow and overlapped with countless space cracks. Therefore, it was impossible to find it amidst the hollow, and only those who had the coordinates could enter. Moreover, most of the time, the Azure Secret Area was covered by Essential Qi Tide. Without a celestial device like the Air-frozen Bead, only a person with Cultivation of True Immortality could survive there. Unlike it, the new macro world was very ostentatious in this Star Area. Fortunately, the Azure Big World was located in the Desolate Ancient Star Area. Very few people came by this way, or it would have been discovered long ago.
Although Zhou Bao was in charge of the Jade Plate of Fate of the Azure Big World, he had no intention of intervening in this world. Instead, he transferred some of the responsibility to Jing XIII and asked him to do the work. It was not because of trust, but because he knew too much about the Jade Plate of Fate. He was aware that even if he handed it over to Jing XIII, Jing XIII would not pose any threat to him.
Even though Jing XIII had managed to make use of some of the functions of the Jade Plate of Fate, as Zhou Bao expected, he never abused its powers. Jing XIII only used it occasionally to monitor the whole macro world to see if anything was wrong. That was how he noticed the appearance of the Silver Frost Castle.
He was able to see it, not because he was powerful, but because the Void-breaking Bridge stretched out, broke through the hollow, and went straight towards the Sea of Divine Power. The Sea of Divine Power was the heart of the whole Azure Big World. There were a lot of secrets hidden there. It was Zhou Bao’s practice place; the Wheel of Time and the Jade Plate of Fate were also hidden in its depths. As soon as it was disturbed by the Void-breaking Bridge, it naturally gave cause of alarm to Jing XIII and Zhou Bao as well.
They arrived at the Sea of Divine Power almost at the same time.
Simultaneously, they saw a silver bridge with unparalleled powers breaking through layers of spaces and touching down on the Sea of Divine Power.
“Gold Bridge of the Sea of Bitterness?” At the sight of the silver bridge, Jing XIII’s face clouded over. Before he could react, the Silver Frost Castle broke through the hollow.
“It’s not, it’s a replica!” Jing XIII breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the Void-breaking Bridge clearly, but upon seeing the Silver Frost Castle, his face darkened.
“It’s a Highest Heaven Celestial Device, damn it!” With a low curse, he moved swiftly. Without saying a word, he turned into a ten thousand feet long whale, and dashed violently against the Silver Frost Castle.
“A Demonic Immortal, it, no…!” Tai Shang and Yu Tong’s faces paled at the sight of the oncoming huge whale.
They were all Five-tribulation True Immortals, at the peak of Venerable Realm. Even within their own sect they were heavyweights. But coming face with Jing XIII, an ancient demon, they were totally shocked.
Yet, despite the shock, they were not intimidated by this huge demon in its original form. Suddenly Tai Shang patted the wall in front of him and the whole Silver Frost Castle shone with a dazzling silver light.
Boom!
Jing XIII and the Silver Frost Castle collided violently. The earth shook and the mountains swayed; the whole Sea of Divine Power seemed to be shaken up.
This time, Jing XIII, whose form was ten thousand feet long, was sent flying, and the Silver Frost Castle, which was shaking violently, retreated hundreds of feet away.
“This is the core guardian evil beast of this macro world. Hurry up, release Silver Frost Divine Light and bombard it quickly!” Tai Shang’s face changed when he saw that Jing XIII, who had retreated due to the impact of the collision, had not been badly hurt. He roared out loud and a ghostly blue light flashed from the top of the tower of Silver Frost Castle.
“Damn it, Silver Frost Divine Light, it’s a replica of the Ancient Sacred City. This Highest Heaven Celestial Device must have melted the fragments of the Ancient Sacred City. Hurry up, stop them. We can’t repel the Silver Frost Divine Light!” When he heard Tai Shang’s shout, Jing XIII, instantly comprehended the origin of the Silver Frost Castle, and howled in anger.
“Damn it!” Seeing the blue light had been emitted, Zhou Bao dared not neglect it. He cried in a low voice, tearing the hollow. In the hollow of the Sea of Divine Power, a great wheel loomed, spinning slowly.
Almost at the same moment, the blue light from the tower of the castle gathered into a deep blue light column, and fired a shot at Jing XIII.
A big hand flashed through the hollow, and grasped the slow spinning wheel so that it stopped abruptly.
And the blue light column that shot at Jing XIII was fixed at a distance of three or four meters from his Real Body. Everything around them became still, as if they were held in the grip of something.
“What a bother! Where on earth did these two guys come from, and how did they get into the Azure Big World? They don’t look like people from Four Eastern Regions. Are they from Three Western Regions?” Zhou Bao frowned and looked at the immobilized duo and the silver castle. His face turned ugly. “Bang—!”
While Zhou Bao was still wondering about the two, the silver castle shot out another beam of blue light and began to shake, as if it had broken free from some kind of bondage. However, the Silver Frost Divine Light dissipated in the process.
“What a wonderful celestial device! It is able to break free of time!” When the Silver Frost Castle moved, Zhou Bao felt a strong force passing from the Wheel of Time and bouncing off his hand. Then the wheel spun slowly again.
“What is it?” Now, Tai Shang and Yu Tong saw the wheel looming in the hollow. Though they did not know what the wheel was, their faces changed at the sight of a faint spirit coming forth from the wheel. This made the Silver Frost Castle tremble, and the Silver Divine Light disappeared suddenly.
“A fairy weapon, it’s the spirit of a fairy weapon. Only a fairy weapon can have such a strong spirit and power!” Tai Shang’s face suddenly turned pale as he thought of something.
“A fairy weapon, how could that be? It’s a new macro world. How could there be such a fairy weapon?” Yu Tong screamed.
“No, let’s go, this macro world has been controlled by somebody. This fairy weapon is used to suppress the creation of the world. Damn it, let’s get out of here and tell the sect, ask Highest Elder to fight for this place!” Tai Shang understood instantly, and without hesitation, he pushed the wall in front of him forward. Once again the Silver Frost Castle shone with dazzling silver light, and the Void-breaking Bridge reappeared, rushing into the depths of the hollow.
“Don’t let them go, or there will be interminable trouble ahead!” Jing XIII cried.
Zhou Bao knew that setting a tiger free would cause calamity for the future. He sneered when he saw the Silver Frost Castle trying to leave. “Trying to escape? It’s not that easy!”
Boom!
A thick golden light column suddenly emerged from the hollow and hit the Void-breaking Bridge. With a loud boom, the silver bridge was shattered.
“What is this? No way, it’s, it’s, it’s a fairy weapon, another fairy weapon!”
The two in the tower stared at the golden light falling from the sky. In such a short time, they had seen two fairy weapons, which was really incredible. At this point, they, though alarmed, did not lose their heads. They had heard what Jing XIII had said, and understood his thoughts. Places as precious as the Azure Big World needed to be kept secret at all costs. Thus, the only way was to kill them both; It was a foregone conclusion.
Sure enough, the golden light column did not stop after it shattered the silver bridge, but revealed its true shape. It was a golden skull furnace, the Furnace of Immortality that was made of the head of the Innate Deity by Zhou Bao.
Having shattered the silver bridge, the Furnace of Immortality continued its rampage. Its Seven Apertures burst into flames almost simultaneously. After the flames gushed out, they formed seven ropes made entirely of flame light and rolled fiercely towards the Silver Frost Castle.
“Gosh, start the Highest Heaven, endless Silver Frost!” When he saw the seven ropes of flame, which seemed to able to melt hollows, Tai Shang gave a roar of anger. This time, instead of pushing the wall in front of him, he swung around, turned into a light and fell into the castle, together with the woman beside him. One after the other they plunged into the depths of the castle. At the same time, a deep blue wave emerged from the depths of the castle and covered the whole Silver Frost Castle. The seven black flames collided with the deep blue wave, producing a wheezing sound and sending forth a heavy puff of white smoke. The seven black flames shot through the deep blue waves, but were not able to touch the castle itself. They fell into an infinite space.
“Is this the space in their Highest Heaven Celestial Device?” Sensing that the black flames from the Furnace of Immortality seemed to be lost in space, Zhou Bao sneered. He hit the Furnace of Immortality with one hand, and a purple light shot from its eyes.
Pure Purple Heavenly Fire!
It was only a flame, but at the touch of the deep blue wave, the seemingly continuous blue wave was ignited in a flash. With a hiss, a white mist like substance rose into the air. The wave was enveloped by the Pure Purple Heavenly Fire. Then the Pure Purple Heavenly Fire went straight into the space of the Silver Frost Castle.
Whirring, whirring, whirring, whirring…
The Pure Purple Heavenly Fire burst into flames as soon as it entered the hollow. Zhou Bao applied the Great Fusion Technic while producing Pure Purple Heavenly Fire by using Furnace of Immortality. Now his body was full of Mysterious Divine Light, unlike the previous Dragon Chimera Fire and the Nine Dragons Heavenly Kylin Gang, which allowed him to launch it at will. But after all, the Great Fusion Technic was a great Divine Sense to use with fire. It could be launched by using the Demonic Fire and Real Essence of Dragon Chimera, and it could also be launched by using the Pure Purple Heavenly Fire. Moreover, in terms of temperature alone, the Pure Purple Heavenly Fire was one of the Nine Heavenly Fires, and its temperature was much higher than that of the Primitive Dragon Chimera. As soon as the Great Fusion Technic was launched by Zhou Bao, it immediately began to completely fuse the surrounding hollow, and the Highest Heaven Space in the Highest Heaven Celestial Device started to collapse.
“Oh, no, trying to fuse the Highest Heaven, it’s an amazing Divine Sense!”
At this time, in the depths of the Silver Frost Castle, in a large and rigidly fortified silver palace, Tai Shang and Yu Tong were both pale with fright. In front of them was a circular formation about ten meters in width. The pattern of this formation was dense and complex. At each of the six nodes of the formation, there was an egg-shaped groove, which were all empty, as if waiting to be filled with something.
Although there was nothing within those grooves, they emitted a faint dark blue light. In the blue light, a space pattern of the Silver Frost Castle appeared, and in fact, that was the center space of the castle that was about to be fused.
“Tai Shang, are you really sure you want to start Grand Protective Formation?”
“Of course, otherwise, we can’t get out of here!” Tai Shang looked gloomy. At this point, he was holding a fist-sized spear, which shone with a mysterious color. “Didn’t you notice the Highest Heaven Space of the celestial device has been fused? Only by starting the formation and giving full throttle to all the power of the Silver Frost Castle can we build up the golden bridge and get rid of that fairy weapon. Or else, we’re all going to die here!”
“But it’s a Divine Origin Stone—!”
“Precious as it is, is it worth more than our lives?” Finding that Yu Tong was still thinking about the value of the Divine Origin Stone, Tai Shang snapped at her with a gleam of anger in his eyes.
“But—” Looking at the Divine Origin Stone in Tai Shang’s hands, Yu Tong was still reluctant.
“What a moron!” With a muttered curse, Tai Shang ignored the foolish woman and broke the Divine Origin Stone into six pieces, which fell onto the six nodes of the formation. The moment they fell into the grooves, they shone brightly.
