Danger lurked everywhere in the Starry Heavens. It was clear that the Haotian Sect had put in a lot of effort to ensure the safety of this group of disciples.
"Put on your jade pendants and board the warship."
Whoosh! "
Right after the Vice Palace Master spoke, the many disciples on the drill ground immediately leaped up and passed through the King Grade warship's protective barrier, landing on the deck one after another.
Xiao Chen casually sized up this King Grade warship. It was about three hundred meters long and thirty meters tall. Its entire body was pitch-black, and its hull was made of Yama Black Gold, a rare ore found in the Starry Heavens.
The purple banner of the Haotian Sect hung on the bow of the warship, with the word "Haotian" written on both sides.
High ranked Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons were mounted on the deck and the surroundings of the warship.
The might of the high ranked Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons was very strong, no weaker than the full-power strike of a grandmaster-level Martial Sage. With a hundred cannons firing together, they could instantly kill a grandmaster-level Martial Sage.
There was even a Sage Grade Ancient Demonic Energy Cannon hidden in the mouth of a mutated beast at the front of the warship, something that could threaten a strong existence like the Blue Robed Emperor.
Xiao Chen could even vaguely sense extremely complicated and mysterious talisman scripts on the warship's protective shield, appearing indistinct. Only when Xiao Chen infused his Spiritual Sense into his eyes could he see flickering golden spots of light.
Xiao Chen thought to himself, This King Grade warship is not as simple as it looks on the surface.
Just as Xiao Chen thought this, the bow of the warship tilted up slightly. Four exhaust pipes popped out from the stern, and red flames spewed out ferociously.
The warship moved at Mach 2, heading for the sky. Then, it continuously accelerated until it reached Mach 10, leaving this star.
At a certain moment, Xiao Chen lost his center of gravity. His body floated up involuntarily. He immediately realized that he had arrived in the Starry Heavens.
Although this was the first time Xiao Chen experienced something like this, he did not panic. He circulated his Quintessence and landed back on the ground.
The other disciples had wanted to see Xiao Chen make a fool of himself. They had not expected that Xiao Chen would not panic at all. They were all shocked.
After walking on the bow for a while, Xiao Chen quickly got used to the absence of gravity. Furthermore, he discovered that the starry sky of this world was somewhat different from the starry sky of his previous world.
When Xiao Chen turned his head back and looked at his surroundings, he saw the boundless starry sky. The visual impact of the boundless starry sky was many times stronger than when he was on the ground.
This was not the first time the other disciples on the bow had seen such a scene. However, the shock in their hearts was not any less than Xiao Chen's as they stared at their surroundings.
The Outer Space was not peaceful. Meteorites would fly toward the battleship from time to time. The Advanced Magic Cannons around the battleship had not stopped firing since they arrived in the Outer Space.
Resplendent beams of light blossomed in the starry sky, shattering the incoming asteroids. Otherwise, if they crashed into the barrier at such a terrifying speed, it wouldn't be a small matter.
Xiao Chen lowered his head and fiddled with the jade pendant on his chest. He recalled that the jade pendant contained a map of the nearby starry sky. Feeling curious, he sent in his Spiritual Sense.
A three-dimensional star chart immediately appeared before Xiao Chen. The battleship and the people around him seemed to have disappeared. He felt like he was standing alone in the Outer Space.
The stars on the star chart were marked with various colors. Blue stars indicated that other factions of the Kunlun Realm were stationed there. The other colors of different shades indicated the danger level of the stars.
The stars on the star chart were not fixed. They moved at high speeds at every moment, giving off a very wondrous feeling. As Xiao Chen's gaze moved, the star chart would slowly move. When he looked closely, the small stars would grow larger.
However, this star chart was clearly just an ordinary continent. The starry sky marked was not particularly vast, and many things were rather crude.
After the novelty vanished, Xiao Chen felt that it was no longer interesting, so he withdrew his Spiritual Sense.
Just as Xiao Chen withdrew his Spiritual Sense, he looked into the distance with his peripheral vision.
Ten-odd clumps of light burning with scarlet flames quickly flew towards the warship. The scarlet flames looked very dazzling in the dark starry sky.
"It's a Flame Crystal Rock!"
Several disciples at the bow of the warship cried out excitedly, their eyes lighting up when they saw this item.
The two Vice Palace Masters guarding the bow of the warship were somewhat astonished as well. Then, they smiled and said, "It really is a Flame Crystal Rock. Unexpectedly, we are so lucky. When we come over later, make your move. However, remember not to stray too far from the warship."
However, Xiao Chen frowned slightly. His Spiritual Sense could see much further than the Mental Energy of the two Vice Palace Masters.
He could see a young man with a dark and sullen expression sitting on a black throne behind the ten-odd clumps of light burning with scarlet flames.
There was a clump of pitch-black clouds below the throne. The dark-faced man drove the throne forward quickly, chasing after the scarlet clumps of light in front.
The entire throne gave off a deathly aura. Xiao Chen felt a strange sense of familiarity. The scarlet throne in his sea of consciousness started shaking restlessly.
After absorbing a Flame Crystal Rock, a cultivator would have a high chance of comprehending the state of fire. After a cultivator with the state of fire absorbed the Flame Crystal Rock, the might of their state would become even stronger.
It was even possible to directly comprehend a will after absorbing some of the higher quality Flame Crystal Rocks.
Of course, such Peak Grade Flame Crystal Rocks were extremely rare. Furthermore, they were worth cities. Very few people discovered them.
Clearly, none of the Flame Crystal Rocks flying towards the King Grade warship contained any Peak Grade Flame Crystal Rocks. Otherwise, the two Vice Palace Masters would not have been able to hold themselves back.
However, their value could not be underestimated. Furthermore, there were many of them. Just one would be enough to make a small fortune.
The scarlet clumps of light became increasingly distinct. With just the naked eye, one could see the red crystals within the flames.
"Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh! "Many figures soared into the air, flying towards the scarlet clumps of light.
The two Vice Palace Masters glanced at the unmoving Xiao Chen. Then, the old man on the left said, "Xiao Chen, go and fight for it as well. As long as you do not stray too far from the warship, you should be safe for four hours."
"There is no air in the Starry Heavens. At first, you will not be able to control your speed. You should get used to it first before you go and fight for the Flame Crystal Rocks."
The person on the right gave some advice.
Xiao Chen could not help but smile bitterly. Naturally, he wanted to fight for the Flame Crystal Rocks. Even if he could not use them, he could still exchange them for a large sum of Astral Coins.
However, the throne that the mysterious man chasing from afar was clearly the Death Throne of the Evil Monarch Throne. It came from the same source as Xiao Chen's Massacre Throne.
Ao Jiao once said that the Evil Monarch Throne was split into seven. Each of them represented a high-ranked state. As long as one could snatch and merge the other party's throne, they would be able to gain another high-ranked state.
Aside from the energy states of wind, water, fire, thunder, and earth, there were also states of massacre, destruction, immortality, ruin, death, despair, darkness, and other even more difficult to comprehend high-ranked states.
With each additional state, a cultivator's strength would increase by leaps and bounds.
If that mysterious man sensed that Xiao Chen had the Massacre Throne, he would definitely charge over without a care for anything else. As for the rumor that the Evil Monarch was reborn after merging the seven thrones, no one would believe it.
"Xiao Chen, don't worry. You will take this step eventually. It is good to familiarize yourself with it now."
The two Vice Palace Masters continued to console Xiao Chen. They thought that Xiao Chen was worried about the unfamiliar environment of the Starry Heavens and was unwilling to go out.
Xiao Chen's bitter smile turned into a conflicted one. He had no choice but to go out now. He controlled his Mental Energy in his sea of consciousness and wrapped the restless scarlet throne in layers.
Xiao Chen understood the principle of possessing a jade ring in one's pocket. He had not used the scarlet throne all this while because he was not strong enough.
Once it was exposed and attracted the attention of some experts, it would be a huge hidden danger.
With a gentle push, Xiao Chen instantly passed through the protective barrier of the warship and arrived in the boundless Starry Heavens. The instant he exited the barrier, he clearly felt the pressure on his body decrease. His speed automatically increased by twenty percent.
Without the obstruction of air in the Starry Heavens, one would be much faster than in the Kunlun Continent. After reaching a certain level of speed in the Kunlun Realm, one would hit a bottleneck.
Only by entering the void would one be able to increase one's speed. However, tearing the void of the Kunlun Realm was something that even grandmaster-level Martial Sages could not do.
After adapting to his surroundings, Xiao Chen held his breath and circulated his Quintessence. Then, he looked at the situation in front of him.
Cui Hao took the lead, nimbly dodging the meteors in the Starry Heavens, rushing ahead of everyone else. He was the closest to the ten-odd clumps of scarlet flames, his eyes filled with excitement.
"Ao Jiao, I used my Mental Energy to envelop the throne in several layers. That fellow should not be able to discover it, right?"
"That should not be the case. If you can still be discovered, the result will be the same whether you leave the warship or not."
This conversation allowed Xiao Chen to relax. As for the Flame Crystal Stones, they were not something that he urgently needed. If he could fight for them, he would.
Xiao Chen executed the Thunder Dragon Steps and narrowed his eyes. Then, he quickly dashed forward, overtaking a large group of people and flying side by side with Cui Hao.
"Haha! I might lose to you on land, but it is impossible for you to defeat me in the Starry Heavens," Cui Hao said to Xiao Chen beside him.
Cui Hao said sullenly to Xiao Chen, who was beside him. Then, he increased his speed again, leaving Xiao Chen far behind.
Hearing Cui Hao's mocking words, Xiao Chen smiled faintly and ignored him. He continued flying forward at a constant speed.
"Good! The first Flame Crystal Stone is mine."
Cui Hao revealed an expression of joy. Then, his figure moved, heading for the long Flame Crystal Stones. Then, he stretched out his hand, wanting to grab a Flame Crystal Stone.
His Quintessence surged, and a Flame Crystal Stone immediately left its original trajectory and flew towards Cui Hao.
The joy on Cui Hao's face deepened. He stepped forward and tried to grab the Flame Crystal Stone.
"Scram! How dare you snatch something that I, Wang Can, have my eyes on?!"
A ferocious shout suddenly came from the distance. Suddenly, a black energy appeared in front of Cui Hao and swept over like a whip.
The Flame Crystal Stone that was about to fall into Cui Hao's hand was instantly knocked away. The black Quintessence's might did not diminish, continuing to sweep towards Cui Hao.
