Agate, Old Orchid Star, Far West region.
Thirty-two years ago, the Old Orchid Star was now overgrown with weeds. The sacred mountain where the Giant Tribe had lived for many years was leveled. Because of the terrifying gravity of this level 7 life star, not many races liked to cultivate here.
The experts of various forces in the Far West had once joined hands to sweep this star, leaving it riddled with holes. Many strange ores had been mined clean.
That mysterious ancient city was still standing in a corner of Old Orchid Star. However, it was covered in dust and spider webs. It had become the playground of many small animals.
The mysterious ancient city was built with special stone materials. It was extremely tough. That year, the warriors who had raided the city couldn't smash it. They didn't find anything valuable in the city. Eventually, they had to retreat begrudgingly.
Blood Devil's subordinates had killed them all. They didn't have a chance to come to Old Orchid Star again.
Today, a massive battleship landed in Old Orchid Star, anchored by the mysterious ancient city. Warriors of Potion and Tool Pavilion streamed out of the battleship, their faces solemn as they headed to the mysterious ancient city.
The leader was Zaduo, the blacksmith of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion. He was Uncle Duo that Fu Wei had mentioned. He was at Third Sky of Ethereal God Realm, cultivating rare Space power Upanishad.
Zha Duo was wearing a long silver robe with exquisite patterns. He looked elegant and graceful. His long silver hair draped over his shoulder. He looked like he was around fifty or sixty years old with a lanky body. Along the way, many people of Potion and Tool Pavilion followed him, their faces respectful.
Zaduo arrived at the mysterious ancient city. Looking at the city that was still firm after so many years, he was surprised.
He walked directly to the toughest building in the ancient city. Shi Yan and Na Xin had tried to open it that year. However, they had used all of their strength to do nothing. They had to give up dispiritedly.
Zaduo stood in front of the door, slowly putting his hand on the stone door. He squinted to sense for a while.
Swish!
A dazzling sharp blade shot out from his fingertip. Moving like a waterfall, it tore the layers of barriers and restrictions on the stone door into pieces.
Boom!
The stone door was forcefully broken.
Zaduo's expression was the same as usual as he strolled into the stone building. His eyes slightly lit up.
There were layers of rings inside the stone building. The rings shone with a hazy, colorful light. They were connected like huge balls of light, and every ring was embedded with beautiful divine crystals. They were all supreme grade divine crystals of the highest quality. There were actually several million of them.
The divine crystals were dazzling like countless stars in the galaxy, filling every corner of the stone building.
Zaduo walked through the gaps in the rings, searching for something carefully, not missing any narrow areas. However, after wandering around for a while, he still didn't find anything. He frowned slightly.
After a long while, Zaduo's ten fingers emitted rays of light that surged into the ball of light and ignited the divine crystal.
A million divine crystals suddenly surged with vigorous energy. Terrifying energy fluctuations erupted like a volcano, swiftly filling the interior of the stone building. Then, they overflowed and extended to every corner of the mysterious ancient city like rainbows.
Boom Boom Boom!
The mysterious ancient city in the Old Orchid Star suddenly floated up under the burst of energy. Little by little, it floated majestically in the sky.
Zaduo walked out of the stone building, wandering around the floating ancient city. He searched every corner, his face grimaced.
…
In the immense sea of stars …
A massive battleship was moving fast like a meteor. Inside the control center, Fu Wei and An Yun were looking at a mirror, their eyes filled with hope.
Gradually, the bright mirror released a dim light. A blurry figure became clear. It was Zaduo in the Old Orchid Star.
"Uncle Duo!" Fu Wei couldn't help but scream. Her voice was soft and charming. "Did you find the Sacred Texts?"
Inside the mirror, Zaduo paled. "The Sacred Texts aren't here. The mysterious ancient city is a battleship built by the first Pavilion Master of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion. That man controlled it. I'm sure he used to live in that battleship. The Thousand Fold Lotuses were cut and taken away. That kid must have done it. I've searched every corner of the battleship, but I didn't find anything. I didn't even find a piece of rock. "
Fu Wei and An Yun were dumbstruck.
From the bright mirror, they could see the mysterious ancient city moving slowly. Gradually, it sped up and left the atmosphere of the Old Orchid Star, entering the sea of stars.
That year, the first Pavilion Master of the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion used to build a strange battleship for himself. The ancient city looked like a giant floating city in the sea of stars. It was the symbol of the first Pavilion Master.
The Elder who had taken the Sacred Texts and escaped was the most important person in charge of the control center of the battleship. During that internal strife, he had activated the battleship to escape. Since then, he had disappeared from Agate.
With the battleship and the Thousand Fold Lotuses, they were sure that the Elder had lived in the ancient city. However, they didn't find his body, the Sacred Texts, or anything related to the Sacred Texts. This had irritated Zaduo, who had traveled thousands of miles to get here.
"I heard that the ancient battleship had sunk into the Old Orchid Star. Those people happened to dig it out. Could the Sacred Texts be hidden in the earth's core?" Fu Wei thought for a while, then frowned.
"The earth's core of the Old Orchid Star?" Zaduo changed his visage, his eyes stern. "The gravity of the Old Orchid Star is several hundred times stronger than the other life stars. The gravity of the earth's core is even more terrifying and unpredictable. Even I can't get to the earth's core."
Zaduo frowned, thinking for a while and then said, "But I can use my Soul Consciousness to sense."
Then, Zaduo sat down on the ancient battleship, closing his eyes and releasing his Soul Consciousness to sense the earth's core of the Old Orchid Star.
Fu Wei and An Yun looked at him anxiously.
After a while, Zaduo retrieved his Soul Consciousness, shaking his head with a dark face. "Nothing."
Fu Wei and An Yun were disappointed.
"There shouldn't be any Sacred Texts. If there were, my Soul Consciousness could have sensed their auras." Zaduo pondered for a while and then said, "Keep an eye on that kid. Ask him if he has found anything else besides the Thousand Fold Lotuses."
Fu Wei nodded begrudgingly.
"The Sacred Texts are very important. You have to capture them at all costs. If necessary, you can use extreme measures." Zaduo snorted with a malicious face. "If that kid wants to hide something, we should extract his soul altar from his God Body and use the Soul Searching Technique to extract his memories. Then, we can investigate bit by bit!"
"It's not that easy." An Yun wore a bitter face. "He and Blood Devil are from the same clan. Blood Devil likes him a lot. He also has a relationship with Bath and Gu Te of the Monster Clan. If we use cruel means, we will ruin the reputation of our Medicine and Vessel Pavilion. We will provoke the flame of anger of the Monster Clan and Demon Clan."
Listening to him, Zaduo frowned. "What's that kid's background?"
"We don't know yet. Our Medicine and Vessel Pavilion doesn't have a record of him. I think he just appeared suddenly," answered An Yun.
"If he has a deep relationship with the Monster Clan and Demon Clan, of course, we can't use force. Yeah, I'm too far away from them. Let Fu Wei decide this. Try to get the truth from him. The news of the Sacred Texts... seems to be leaked. Great Elder asked me about it. You guys must be careful. Don't leak anything. "After Zaduo finished talking, the bright mirror became blurry. His figure disappeared little by little.
Fu Wei and An Yun exchanged looks, sighing begrudgingly.
The relationship in the Medicine and Vessel Pavilion was complicated. Great Elder had arranged some spies in the hostile forces. Until now, Fu Wei and the others didn't know who they were. Sometimes, Great Elder would know the operation of this pavilion.
They couldn't stop him. They could only be careful.
"I have to get information from that guy again. What a headache." Fu Wei brushed her hair, her pretty face full of reluctance, "That guy is full of lies. Eight out of ten of his words are not true. He's so treacherous. I'm afraid it's not easy to get information from him."
"Young Elder, how about … trying the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Wine?" An Yun hesitated for a moment before she carefully suggested.
Fu Wei's face immediately turned red. "If I drink that wine, I won't be able to control my true feelings, and it'll be easy for me to reveal my true feelings to others … If something unexpected happens, it's better not to."
"I believe in Young Elder's willpower." An Yun sighed in his heart. He forced himself to persuade her, "The Seven Emotions and Six Desires Wine is very effective. It's the only way to make him tell the truth without using force. The Sacred Texts is very important. Young Elder, you'd better bear with it for the sake of the overall situation."
Fu Wei's cheeks blushed as she struggled with all her might.
"Young Elder, we just need to get the information about the Sacred Texts. We can stop immediately. I think with your competence, you can get accurate information about the Sacred Texts from him." An Yun stooped, not daring to look at her, trying to persuade her persistently.
Fu Wei contemplated for a while. She contemplated for a long time and then nodded begrudgingly. "Okay, let's try. Help me invite him... to my room."
An Yun was bewildered for a while. He nodded quietly.
…
Inside the training room of the battleship.
Shi Yan sat still like a rock for a long time. His aura was retrieved, and his energy was moving around his entire body.
In the other three rooms, Phelan, Liana, and Cato were using the Thousand Fold Lotus to refine their soul altars and strengthen their souls.
"Thump! Thump!
Suddenly, a light knocking sound came from the only tightly shut jade door.
Shi Yan woke up, frowning as he opened the door. Looking at An Yun who looked a little nervous, he asked impatiently, "What's up?"
"Our Young Elder wants to discuss something with you." An Yun sighed inwardly as he felt guilty. However, for the Sacred Texts, he had to make the Young Elder feel wronged.
"If it's not important, forget it," Shi Yan waved his hand. He was trying to comprehend the mysteries of the Demon Blood, so he was irritated to be disturbed.
An Yun's face stiffened. He cursed inwardly, but he still forced a smile. "I don't know the details, but I think it's important. Please go there."
"Oh," Shi Yan paused for a while and then said begrudgingly, "Lead the way."
"Follow me," An Yun led him to a stone path leading to the battleship.
