Chapter 185 The Eye of Creation
Chapter 185 The Eye of Creation
The universe is vast and boundless, and the distance between two ancient planets with life is beyond imagination.
Therefore, few cultivators would choose to cross the river in their physical bodies, because it would be too long, and they might even die of old age along the way.
Most cultivators would choose to use the Five-Colored Altar and the Ancient Starry Sky Road, or even a special spaceship for traversing the universe, as these would save a lot of time and be safe.
However, this only applies to cultivators with low cultivation levels. For cultivators whose cultivation has reached the Quasi-Celestial Venerable level, they can directly tear open space to travel, let alone Hao Chen, who has the cultivation level of a Celestial Venerable.
In the blink of an eye, Hao Chen tore open space and took a step to leave Qingmu Star, arriving at a nearby desolate planet.
After confirming that the area was safe, Hao Chen waved his hand and released Zhan Hu, along with Chi Li, whom he had grabbed along the way.
Looking at the weakened Zhanhu, a cold glint flashed in Haochen's eyes, and in his heart he had already sentenced the Qingmu clan to death.
After removing the chains from Zhanhu's limbs, Haochen activated the World Tree. The phantom of an ancient tree appeared behind Haochen, its branches swaying and condensing into a ball of spiritual liquid containing life essence, which Haochen took and integrated into Zhanhu's body.
But something unexpected happened. The life essence condensed by the World Tree not only failed to heal Zhan Hu's wounds, but instead acted like poison, corroding them.
Hao Chen frowned as he looked at Zhan Hu's wound. He saw that Zhan Hu's wound was sizzling and wisps of black smoke were rising continuously.
Seeing that Zhan Hu's aura was getting weaker and weaker, like a candle flickering in the wind, and could be extinguished at any moment, Hao Chen could no longer sit still.
"Damn it, didn't the Aoki family say that Zhanhu was just weak? What's going on? Why is there a strange law in Zhanhu's body constantly devouring his life essence?"
Runes flashed in Hao Chen's pupils. Through the power of the runes, he saw a strange law within Zhan Hu's body constantly devouring Zhan Hu's life essence.
The life essence that he had just injected into Zhanhu's body to heal his injuries not only failed to have a healing effect, but also directly alarmed that strange law, causing that law to accelerate its devouring speed.
"No, if this continues, Zhanhu is doomed. We have no choice but to seal him away for now and wait until we find a solution."
The next moment, Hao Chen's divine sense enveloped several nearby star fields, and a continuous stream of essence converged towards Hao Chen. In the blink of an eye, Hao Chen absorbed all the essence of the surrounding star fields and condensed it into a ball of divine source liquid that emitted a dreamlike glow.
"I'm sorry, Zhanhu, I'll figure something out."
As Zhanhu was covered by the Divine Source Liquid, the Divine Source Liquid also began to solidify, transforming into a divine source that looked just like amber.
Fortunately, the strange law within Zhan Hu's body fell silent under the seal of the divine source, and stopped devouring Zhan Hu's life force.
However, Hao Chen also understood that this was only a temporary solution and not a permanent one. As long as the problem of Zhan Hu was not resolved, that strange law would continue to devour Zhan Hu's life.
"I didn't want to disturb Chen Ying and the others, but now there's no other way. I can only go back to the Qingmu Clan and ask them about the origin of that strange law."
Just as Hao Chen decided to return to Qingmu Star to find out about Zhan Hu's problem, Chi Li, who had already woken up, suddenly walked towards Zhan Hu.
Under Hao Chen's gaze, Chi Li walked up to Zhan Hu and then took out a jade talisman from his pocket.
As the jade talisman approached the war tiger, it suddenly emitted a hazy light.
Hao Chen noticed that Chi Li's eyes revealed a hint of excitement after seeing the jade talisman glow, but Chi Li quickly concealed it.
Hao Chen hadn't originally intended to bring Chi Li along, but Chi Li suggested that Hao Chen leave when Chi Li was about to depart.
After a moment's thought, Hao Chen felt that with his strength, he could easily handle any tricks Chi Li might have up his sleeve, so he didn't hesitate and took Chi Li with him.
However, it seems that Chi Li's target is Zhan Hu. It's just unknown what their relationship is, or what the relationship is between Zhan Hu and the Jiuli Dynasty.
Just as Hao Chen was stunned, Chi Li had already put away the jade talisman and then respectfully said to Hao Chen, "Please come to the Nine Li Dynasty, senior."
"You want me to go back to the Jiuli Dynasty with you?" Hao Chen sized up Chi Li, wondering what the other party meant. Could it be that he wanted to trick him back and then use the power of the Jiuli Dynasty to deal with him?
However, upon closer reflection, Hao Chen felt that it was unlikely. As a power with a long history, they should understand that the Heavenly Venerable, as the pinnacle of humanity, could not be dealt with by numbers alone, unless the Nine Li Dynasty had a True Immortal.
Chi Li saw that Hao Chen did not immediately agree, and naturally knew the other party's concerns.
And to be honest, if Zhanhu hadn't been so important to the Jiuli Dynasty, he wouldn't have wanted to get involved with Haochen like this.
Who knows what kind of personality Hao Chen, this unfamiliar Celestial Venerable, has? If I accidentally provoke him and get killed by him, wouldn't I be in big trouble?
"Judging from this Celestial Venerable's attitude towards the white tiger, he probably also wants to revive it. If all else fails, we'll have to tell him the news."
While Chi Li was calculating in his mind how to get Hao Chen to take Zhan Hu to the Jiuli Dynasty, Hao Chen had already made a decision: to take Zhan Hu to the Jiuli Dynasty.
Hao Chen just learned from searching the memories of the Nine Li Imperial Uncle that there is a Creation Source Eye in the Nine Li Dynasty, which contains the origin of creation between heaven and earth. It can transform people and evolve their origin, and may be able to heal Zhan Hu's injury.
After making his decision, Hao Chen accepted Chi Li's invitation and returned to the Jiuli Dynasty with him.
As for the Jiuli Dynasty wanting revenge, they can just make a big scene. Anyway, Hao Chen is determined to have the Eye of Creation.
When Chi Li learned that Hao Chen was going to return to the Jiuli Dynasty with him, his eyes revealed excitement, as if he had done something big.
“Senior, the Jiuli Dynasty is located on the Origin Star, and we need to use a warship to get there. There is the warship that I used to come on Qingmu Star. Should we return to Qingmu Star first?”
Hearing Chi Li's words, Hao Chen smiled and said, "Kid, have you never seen the Heavenly Venerable take action before?"
Chi Li nodded subconsciously. Although there were rumors of immortals in the world, such beings were not something they could meet at will.
Let alone immortals, even celestial beings are not everywhere; they are the foundation of every major power.
For example, the emperor of their Jiuli Dynasty is not a Heavenly Venerable, but merely a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable.
Although it is possible to travel across space, the distance from Qingmu Star to Shiyuan Star is enough to exhaust all the divine power of a quasi-celestial being, and the efficiency is even less than that of using a warship to travel.
Hao Chen didn't give Chi Li a chance to explain. After putting away the War Tiger, he grabbed Chi Li with one hand and shattered space with the other, instantly traversing tens of thousands of miles to arrive at the next star field.
Looking at the constantly changing scenery around him, Chi Li showed a surprised and envious expression, thinking that with this speed, who would want to take a slow warship? No wonder the other party would rather travel by himself than take a warship.
However, Hao Chen was somewhat dissatisfied with this, muttering, "Damn, what kind of place is this? This universe is too big."
However, as Hao Chen continued to traverse space to travel, he became more and more proficient at it, not only increasing his speed but also covering a greater distance each time.
After traversing space dozens of times, Hao Chen saw a bright star, carrying an endless and terrifying aura. That was his destination, the Origin Star.
This is a huge star, vast and boundless, giving people an incomparably magnificent feeling. From the perspective of the universe, it looks like a huge continent.
“This planet is extraordinary.” Hao Chen said with feeling. He sensed that not only was there the aura of a Celestial Venerable lying dormant on the Origin Star, but there was also a kind of power, carrying an aura that was different from that of humanity.
Hao Chen recognized that this aura was somewhat similar to the aura emanating from Hao Tian, suggesting that there must be an immortal on this ancient star.
As Hao Chen stepped into the Origin Star, a certain aura was instantly alerted, and its gaze involuntarily turned towards Hao Chen: "Zhan Hu, welcome home."
On the other side, a middle-aged man dressed in tattered clothes and emitting an unpleasant odor was flying towards the Origin Star in a warship.
If Chi Li were here, he would recognize that this middle-aged man, who looked like a beggar, was none other than his forgotten royal uncle.
However, the royal uncle was in a bad mood at the moment, recalling his ordeal, in which not only were his clothes stripped off, but he wasn't even left with a pair of underwear.
His divine power was inexplicably sealed, causing no one to believe he was the royal uncle of the Jiuli Dynasty, forcing him to become a beggar.
Once he regained some of his divine power, the royal uncle immediately boarded the same warship he had come from and fled.
"Damn it, you ambushed me, fine, but at least leave me a pair of underwear! Don't let me find out who you are, or I, your royal uncle, will show you what cruelty is."
"Aju~"
"Strange, why did I suddenly sneeze? Is someone cursing at me?"
Hao Chen scratched his head, but didn't think much of it, because he had already seen the capital of the Jiuli Dynasty.
At the same time, bells rang in the capital of the Jiuli Dynasty, and then squads of soldiers took to the air one after another, blocking Hao Chen's way with murderous intent.
