Chapter 1628 - 1625: Stars Secret Realm!

Chapter 1628: Chapter 1625: Stars Secret Realm!

Stars pave the path, their light guiding the way, and at the end of this Star Path, it seems as if it connects to another world. Yet this Star Path is exceedingly long, so long it appears endless!

When Lin Bai stepped onto his Flying Sword and soared upward, he looked down to see countless Warriors from the four quarters of Starry Sky City—east, south, west, north—executing their movement techniques, transforming into streaks of rainbow light, shooting toward the sky.

Witnessing this scene, Lin Bai’s expression grew solemn as he said, "Treading on stars, plucking from Wan Xing... it seems ’plucking from Wan Xing’ does not refer to the stars above the Nine Heavens, but to these Warriors, doesn’t it?"

Lin Bai saw streaks of rainbow light burst forth from Starry Sky City, each resembling a shooting star falling from the sky—extremely dazzling!

Now, to the northwest of Nan Chu Dynasty, innumerable Families and Sects had gathered all their Warriors upon a square, gazing from afar at the majestic Star Path and the countless warriors ascending it, with shock written all over their faces!

Lin Bai reined in his mind and, while riding his Flying Sword, did not accelerate to his top speed but instead followed in the middle of the large group charging toward the end of the Star Path.

Lin Bai did not wish to be the first to step into the Stars Secret Realm. What if danger awaited immediately upon entering?

Although the Stars Secret Realm was filled with numerous treasures, Lin Bai had come to understand deeply along his journey that blessings and misfortunes depend on each other. Wherever there were precious treasures to be found, there surely would be immense dangers as well!

Lin Bai had no choice but to proceed with utmost caution!

"Senior Brother Yang Changdong, look, that man riding the Flying Sword over there, seems to be Dongfang Bai!" A few Warriors from Fenxin Sect were flying together when one of them caught sight of Lin Bai and exclaimed.

Hearing the name Dongfang Bai, Yang Changdong’s gaze flashed a cold light as he looked over from afar and snorted, "Hmph, Dongfang Bai, the Stars Secret Realm shall be your grave!"

Lin Bai sensed the murderous intent wafting from Yang Changdong and immediately turned his head to look, just in time to make eye contact with Yang Changdong who then gave a cold smile and continued to rush towards the end of the Star Path, swiftly overtaking Lin Bai.

"It seems this Yang Changdong will not let the matter rest easily," Lin Bai’s eyes flickered with a cold light, harboring no fear toward Yang Changdong’s hostility, but instead wishing in his heart to resolve this grudge with him as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, murderous gazes filled with killing intent, one after another, were being cast towards Lin Bai from various directions.

Lin Bai looked around and saw Wei Tianjun, Yan Tuo, Yu Liang, Mi Rong, Yejian Qiu, and others.

When a great majority of Warriors from inside Starry Sky City had rushed onto the Star Path.

Inside East City, within the residence of Mizuka.

Mizuka’s eyes twinkled with joyful radiance as she spoke, "My companions, in our venture to the Stars Secret Realm, we must achieve swift success, as this pertains to the future prospects of the Valley of Demons—we cannot afford to fail!"

Standing beside Mizuka, nearly twenty figures clad in the heaven-reaching Sword Sect disciple robes gathered, ranging from middle-aged to young, old men to elderly women.

But these twenty or so disciples exuded an aura of sinister charm, in no way resembling the innocent disciples of a great Sect!

As Qi Xuan heard Mizuka’s words, he showed no substantial reaction; his gaze following Lin Bai’s silhouette on the Flying Sword, his eyes gleaming coldly as he clenched his fists tightly.

In Qi Xuan’s eyes, he was indifferent to what the Valley of Demons intended to do—he only desired to kill Dongfang Bai, the man who had ruined his life, within the Stars Secret Realm!

Lin Bai returned his focus, concentrating on controlling his sword, and followed the massive crowd, heading straight to the far end of the Stars Secret Realm.

Before long, Lin Bai saw, at the end of the Star Path, a vast black hole, towards which Warriors were continuously plunging into.

This black hole was extremely bizarre, situated at the end of the Star Path, as if it intended to swallow every single star whole!

Lin Bai’s eyes flickered, hesitating for a moment; he slightly slowed the speed of his Flying Sword. Only after seeing other Warriors one after another charge into the black hole did Lin Bai follow suit with his sword.

The Flying Sword plunged into the black hole, and Lin Bai only felt the world spinning violently; his blood and Qi flowing chaotically within him, causing extreme discomfort!

But this discomfort only lasted a moment, merely the span of a breath. Once the piercing white light that hurt his eyes dissipated, Lin Bai finally saw that he was in a desolate mountain range.

This was truly a desolate expanse.

Although mountains surrounded him, not a single sign of life could be seen on them. Trees were all dead, the earth a blanket of yellow soil, and an aura of boundless desolation echoed between heaven and earth!

There was no wind here; everything in the world, as if frozen in time, was exceptionally eerie!

"Why am I alone?"

Full of curiosity, Lin Bai turned to look around, only to find himself the sole person within thousands of miles.

"Could it be that, at the end of the Star Path, Warriors are scattered into various places within the Stars Secret Realm?" With a pensive expression, Lin Bai quietly speculated.

Just at that moment, Lin Bai suddenly looked up and his pupils widened in shock!

In the expanse of the sky above, a round moon and a proud sun hung simultaneously.

The moon radiated a pure white glow, while the sun spread a crimson light!

"Sun and Moon in the same sky!" Staring at the sun and moon above, Lin Bai couldn’t help but stand dumbstruck and entranced.

And just at that moment, as Lin Bai looked at the sun and moon, they seemed to shift ever so slightly, sending a chill over his heart that spread throughout his body!

Lin Bai’s face was stricken with horror as he quickly averted his gaze. It felt to him as if he were being scrutinized by an extraordinarily powerful being!

"How can this be?" Lin Bai wondered inwardly, pondering for a long time. He looked up once more towards the sun and moon in the sky, but this time he did not feel that heart-shaking scrutiny.

"Could I have been mistaken?" Lin Bai mused for a long while before looking away deep in thought.

"Forget it, I better start searching for Blood Crystals first, and see if I have the Qi Yun (fortune) to find a Storage Bag left behind by an ancient Warrior who died in battle."

Upon this thought, Lin Bai’s flying Sword darted forward.

After flying for a long time, Lin Bai realized he was still in this desolate world, flying aimlessly, without discovering a single Blood Crystal along the way.

"I have no idea how vast this world really is. I’ve been flying for half an hour and still haven’t encountered a single person."

Lin Bai’s spirit sank. Knowing the tremendous speed of a Flying Sword, ten thousand li in a flash, even though Lin Bai was flying cautiously and not at full speed, a moment of ten thousand li was still quite achievable.

In the time of a quarter of an hour, Lin Bai had traversed numerous Territories, yet not a single person was seen, forcing him to marvel at the vastness of this place, large enough to encompass the disciples of the Seven Major Sects, numbering over a million.

"Where could Yejian Jun be now?"

"I must find this person first."

"If only I could inquire with a few people who have a good relationship with Yejian Jun."

Lin Bai’s eyes flashed as he continued to soar on his Flying Sword into the distance.
