Chapter 180 - 180: Entering Chaoge City!
Rebirth Bridge was silent and dark, and an ancient aura lingered around it. It was impossible to see what was inside the fog far away from the bridge.
Gu Changqing opened his eyes and retracted his divine sense. Wherever he sent it, he still found nothing.
Huang Di, Zhang Hu, and Xiao Hei each chose a giant pillar. Each pillars’ divine beast shone brightly. The few of them were each summoned to an independent location by a Space Gate.
Only Gu Changqing was left on the bridge as he still needed two people to light up the last two pillars. Without enough manpower, he could only choose from the Divine Runemasters outside.
He didn’t mind giving some benefits to some kind ones. Just like Blue Star’s affiliated forces in the Southern Universe, they all gained benefits after working under the planet.
Seeing that no one dared to move, Hidden Prison Evil Emperor stepped forward and asked cautiously, “Your Excellency the Star Emperor, may I?”
Gu Changqing looked at him and the Nine-Colored Demoness beside him. He nodded and said, “Sure!”
Hidden Prison Evil Emperor glanced at the Nine -Colored Demoness and flew onto the bridge.
Gu Changqing asked doubtfully, “Aren’t you both going?”
Hidden Prison Evil Emperor hesitated for a moment before replying, “She won’t be participating…”
Gu Changqing looked at her strangely, but she only returned his look indifferently without any abnormality.
This woman was very strange.
He silently thought in his heart and shouted again, “One more person!” Supreme Dao Emperor immediately said, “Star Emperor Gu, allow me!”
Gu Changqing nodded.
Supreme Dao Emperor quickly flew onto the bridge toward one of the pillars. He was then summoned to another place by the Space Gate.
Seeing that everyone else was ready, Gu Changqing returned to the pillar of his choice and was teleported.
The space was filled with grayish-white fog. It was somewhat similar to the strange mark on his palm, but it did not have the mark’s abilities.
Thump… Thump… Thump…
From afar, the sound of a war drum echoed. Gu Changqing noticed that the drum and his heartbeat were moving at nearly the same frequency.
In the fog, a green-gray shadow gradually appeared. It was a cow-like creature, but strangely, it did not have horns on its head.
As it approached, the fog in the entire space swept up and turned into a thunderstorm.
Moo…
Gu Changqing ridiculed in his heart. After long anticipation, this creature really was a cow.
He remembered some of Blue Star’s legends. There was a divine beast called the Kui, which seemed to be similar to the creature in front of him.
From this, another condition was added to the relationship between Universe City and Blue Star.
If his guess was correct, the remaining 11 beasts on the pillars should be Blue Star’s legendary divine beasts.
Thump… Thump…
Accompanied by his own heartbeat, Gu Changqing was somewhat annoyed.
Without any nonsense, the twin dragons roared out from the Tai Chi Diagram. Instantly, their majestic power almost broke through the boundaries of space.
The twin dragons bit the Kui shadow. In just a few breaths, it was completely absorbed, making the whole space collapse.
The next moment, Gu Changqing returned to the Rebirth Bridge. Huang Di and the others had yet to come out.
In order to verify his guess, he went around to the remaining pillars to investigate. As expected, they were all engraved with Blue Star’s legendary divine beasts.
Soon, the surroundings shook as Huang Di’s aura spread out. Gu Changqing turned around and saw him on the Xuan bird’s pillar.
He had only activated his Emperor Armor and didn’t even use his Emperor’s Sword. It seemed that Huang Di had also easily crushed the divine beast shadow.
Roar!
After waiting for a long time, a dragon roar rang out as Xiao Hei’s aura spread around. He seemed to be quite excited.
The pillar it was on was carved with a different dragon. Nobody knew what had happened to make him so excited.
After waiting for a while, unexpectedly, the next one to come out wasn’t Zhang Hu or the others. It was actually Supreme Dao Emperor.
The pillar he was on had a Pixiu carved on it. It was undoubtedly suitable to his merchant character.
“Star Emperor Gu!”
Supreme Dao Master walked over to Gu Changqing’s side.
“If you have something to say, then say it.”
Toward merchants, Gu Changqing didn’t have a good impression. However, it wasn’t a particularly bad one. As long as they didn’t provoke him or violate his and Blue Star’s interests, he didn’t mind dealing with merchants.
The Southern Universe was already under his control. For now, he needed some time to recuperate and develop steadily.
To establish this, merchants were needed to consolidate the resources, so it was obvious why Supreme Dao Emperor came to greet him at this time.
“I want to discuss cooperation with Star Emperor Gu. After all, the Southern Universe… ”
Gu Changqing waved his hand to interrupt him and said, “I don’t have time now. After we leave, go to Blue Star to find Wang Rong. She will talk to you.”
Supreme Dao Master still wanted to say something, but after seeing Gu Changqing’s distant look, he silently returned to the Pixiu pillar’s side.
After a bit of time, Hidden Prison Evil Emperor, Monkey King, Zhang Hu, and the others all flew out.
Gu Changqing shouted coldly, “Attack!”
The 12 pillars absorbed the power of their divine runes, and the divine beast carvings that were initially dim slowly lit up.
In the end, 12 light beams rose from the pillars and shot toward the fog in the distance. A vortex appeared inside it, and the seemingly endless fog was sucked into it.
After a long time, the fog gradually faded as a majestic city appeared in front of everyone. In the city’s center was a huge eye-shaped rune floating in place. It seemed to be watching the city’s every move.
“Is this Chaoge?”
Huang Di looked at the majestic city in front of him and couldn’t help but sigh. Just this city alone was almost half the size of a planet. How many humans had lived here, and what kind of civilization had evolved in this place?
Despite that, there were no traces of humans in the city.
Gu Changqing was in front, followed by Huang Di and the others.
Hidden Prison Evil Emperor and Supreme Dao Emperor hesitated for a
moment betore tollowing them.
In the distance, the Nine-Colored Demoness looked at Chaoge City with a
misty look in her eyes. After a long time, she seemed to have made up her mind. She turned into a streak of light and followed behind Hidden Prison Evil Emperor.
Strolling in Chaoge City, Gu Changqing sized up everything around. This place had been finely preserved and hadn’t been damaged by the space beasts.
The initial fog must have concealed the city’s presence. Even Gu Changqing couldn’t locate Chaoge City in the fog, let alone those beasts that had almost no intelligence.
Huang Di, Zhang Hu, and the others had already split up to explore every corner of the city. On the other hand, Gu Changqing moved and arrived at the city’s center.
Looking up, he wanted to see what secrets the eye-shaped rune had..
