Chapter 239: Chapter 129: Two Paths (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_2

Lord of Red Scale, Chi You, arrived here and suddenly took out a small statue. After infusing it with Star Power, the statue faintly lit up with Starlight and a hazy figure emerged from it.

"Envoy, I have prepared the altar as per your instructions, and am about to commence action. I would like to confirm if the things you promised will indeed be delivered," Chi You asked.

"As long as you successfully seal the Dachen Star Gate and follow my instructions, what I promised you will arrive within seven days!" a voice from within the Divine Statue declared.

"Thank you, Envoy!"

"Hurry up. Dachen has already started its pre-battle preparations. In no more than eight hours, their warriors will descend!" the voice from the Divine Statue added.

"So soon!" Chi You exclaimed in astonishment.

"Believe it or not, it’s up to you!"

After speaking, the Starlight on the Divine Statue disappeared.

A look of relief crossed Chi You’s face. How fortunate he was, decisive and merciless in his actions; otherwise...

In the next instant, Chi You walked to the very edge of the altar and slit his wrist with a knife. His dark red blood immediately began to drip onto the Red Scale Heart in his hand.

This was an ancestral treasure passed down within his tribe, said to connect with the Star Will of the Star Domain where they resided, offering them protection.

Blood dropped into the Red Scale Heart and was swiftly absorbed, leaving nothing behind.

In the next moment, the Red Scale Heart suddenly emitted a bright red light.

Chi You’s Starlight flowed in, controlling and urging it. In the next moment, the Red Scale Heart shot out six beams of Starlight, instantly traversing time and space to land on six altars piled high with Star Jade.

As the Starlight touched down, all the Star Jade on the altars ignited as if set aflame.

In an instant, the countless Star Jade on each altar burst into flames. A terrifying Star Power fluctuation immediately surged towards the heavens, converging at the location of the Red Scale Heart.

Feeling the immense power that the Red Scale Heart could wield, even the experienced Chi You was stirred with excitement.

The day had finally come!

"Go!"

With Chi You’s furious bellow and a raise of the Red Scale Heart, the next instant saw the terrifying Starlight that had gathered over the six altars shoot into the sky, hurtling towards the heavens of the Fire Radiant Star Domain!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Thunder erupted from a clear sky.

Ripples unceasingly spread and intensified in the heavens.

Finally, a subtle and elusive Star Gate began to appear under the onslaught of the Star Power.

"Break for me!"

The moment the Star Gate became visible, Chi You once again lifted the Red Scale Heart. Instantly, all the Starlight surged towards the newly emerged Star Gate.

One blast after another.

The Star Gate that had just appeared in the sky trembled violently.

Inside the Autumn Examination Secret Realm of the Da Chen National Daoist Institute, as the light orbs in the void began to flash intensely, National Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao vanished on the spot.

The next instant, the Star-picking Orders of the Left and Right Libationers and several Academicians simultaneously flashed, their faces changing as they also disappeared without a trace.

In the next moment, National Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao, the Left and Right Libationers, and several Academicians all appeared together in a room within the main building of the Da Chen Star Tower in the present world.

Within this room stood five Star Gates.

The one furthest to the left was wildly flashing as if it were about to collapse.

National Preceptor Cheng Yuxiao, with her hair flying about, funneled Starlight like a waterfall into the Star Gate leading to the Second-tier Fire Radiant Star Domain. Seeing this, the Left and Right Libationers and the Academicians stepped forward, their bodies surging with Starlight and stars appearing in front of them.

With the input of a massive amount of Star Power, the violently flickering Star Gate that seemed on the verge of collapsing finally stabilized.

But it kept rippling with waves of Starlight.

This indicated that someone within the Fire Radiant Star Domain was continuously attacking the Star Gate.

The State Preceptor and both Libationers, along with the Academicians, wore gloomy expressions, continuing to channel their Star Power.

A question surfaced in everyone’s mind.

It was too much of a coincidence!

Just as they had decided to carry out an early sweep of the Fire Radiant Star Domain, and had begun mobilization for battle just two hours earlier, a disturbance erupted inside the Fire Radiant Star Domain!

The timing was too precise!

It was an ominous sign.

Meanwhile, back in the Autumn Examination Secret Realm within the Da Chen National Daoist Institute, with the sudden departure of the several powerful figures, the orb only bearing Xu Jin’s name abruptly extinguished.

With the orb gone, so was the name of Xu Jin.

Ning Yuchan’s face changed dramatically, her eyes anxiously turning toward the Mountain Master, Dong Zhao.

Dong Zhao pondered for a moment before he too vanished, leaving the Autumn Examination Secret Realm of the Da Chen National Daoist Institute.

The next instant, Dong Zhao and Ning Yuchan appeared in front of a branch of the Star-picking Tower in Jinshan County.

The front of the Star-picking Tower’s branch was deserted.

Dong Zhao activated the Star-picking Order, causing the Star-picking Tower’s branch to emerge before stepping inside.

Inside the tower, there was no one to be found.

Dong Zhao’s expression turned exceedingly grave.

"Mountain Master..."

An anxious Ning Yuchan started to speak but was stopped by Dong Zhao, "Yuchan, we must not panic. We absolutely cannot panic!"

After pondering for a moment, Dong Zhao spoke slowly, "We can be certain that something has gone wrong in the Fire Radiant Star Domain, and Xu Jin has fallen inside. But what’s also certain is that Xu Jin is probably still alive! And for the short term, there shouldn’t be too much danger."

"Let’s go, back to the Secret Realm! The National Preceptor and the others will surely handle this."

Before returning to the Autumn Examination Secret Realm, Dong Zhao called over the Star Patrol Guard flag master, Zhang Yunliang.

"Stay here. Notify me immediately if anyone emerges from the Star Tower," Dong Zhao commanded.

"Rest assured, Mountain Master."

After giving orders, Dong Zhao then re-entered the Daoist Institute to a safe location before venturing back into the Autumn Examination Secret Realm.
