He wasn't worried that they would escape at all. Miao Yi's group of six looked at each other, not daring to run. They simply couldn't.
What else could they do? They couldn't fight back against his might. All they could do was summon their mounts and follow him obediently.
Guan Longshan watched as the group gradually disappeared into the distance.
From afar, the vast star field looked like a colorful fountain, or like fireflies dancing in the sky. Countless massive celestial bodies were erupting at an unbelievable speed, then spreading out in an arc to regroup before erupting again. It was like a giant colorful butterfly.
Miao Yi's group had never seen such a phenomenon in space before. They didn't know what kind of power was capable of controlling countless celestial bodies at the same time. It was unbelievable.
As soon as Miao Yi and the others barged into this Star Domain, they were utterly shocked. There had been no warning at all, and it was almost as if it had happened all of a sudden. Every single one of them lost their balance. Their mounts, including Charcoal, swayed in panic and lost control as well. They couldn't help but float away from their mounts.
Most frighteningly, they lost control of their transcendence energy as well. They couldn't use their transcendence energy anymore. Transcendence energy had lost its effectiveness in this star field.
The six of them continued to drift towards the depths of this Star Region by relying on the inertia of their flight. The six of them were so scared that they broke out in cold sweat. There were countless celestial bodies rising and falling in front of them. It was very difficult to avoid being hit by them. In a situation where they had lost the protection of their magic power, if they were hit by those celestial bodies that were moving at high speed, they could only be slapped to death.
On the other hand, Dou Yuanhao was still flying steadily in front.
Their first thought was that they had fallen into a trap, but then they realized that wasn't right. With his cultivation, he wouldn't need to go through so much trouble to get rid of them.
Flying in front, Dou Yuanhao seemed to be trying to intimidate them. He seemed to be telling them that this was the consequence of not entering his beast sack.
However, they didn't lose control for long. Dou Yuanhao looked back and suddenly swung his arm. Six shiny black stones of different sizes shot towards the six of them. As the six stones approached the six of them, they suddenly realized that their transcendence energy was once again under their control. They instinctively grabbed onto one of the stones as if it was their last hope.
The moment the stone was in their hands, the six of them felt their hairs stand on end. There was an unknown mysterious power on the stone that flowed through their bodies like an electric current. It quickly repelled the other mysterious power that restricted their magic power in this part of the starry sky.
After regaining control of themselves, the six of them quickly rushed to rescue their mounts. Once they landed on their mounts, the mysterious power of the stone in the palm was clearly directed to their mounts, allowing the panicking mounts to stabilize their flight once more.
The six of them caught up to Dou Yuanhao and wanted to ask what was going on. However, they couldn't transmit their transcendence energy. They could only transmit an arm's length away from their bodies. Thus, the six of them could only shut their mouths like mutes. From time to time, they would look at the ordinary-looking stone in their palms, and then look at the one in the other's hand. They discovered that the size of the stone was completely different. Clearly, it was not a treasure that had been refined. It seemed to be a natural object.
Even though they could fly here, the speed of their flight was much slower. It took them five days to fly out of this mysterious Star Field.
As soon as they left this star field, the first thing Dou Yuanhao did was extend his hand to them. "Hand over the stones."
The six of them looked at the stones in their hands. A mysterious object that could help them pass through this star field could be considered a treasure. To be honest, the six of them didn't really want to hand it over. However, the situation was against their will. They had no choice but to hand it over.
Dou Yuanhao clearly didn't want the stones to wander around. With a wave of his hand, he kept the six stones and continued flying forward.
The six of them looked back at the mysterious star field and were speechless.
If he had used the heart flame to protect himself instead of waiting until he lost control of his transcendence energy, would he have been able to pass through this star field?
In the end, he couldn't help but ask, "General Dou, why is this star field so strange?"
Dou Yuanhao didn't even turn his head as he replied, "In the Purgatory Lands, we call this star field the 'Chaotic God Realm'. As for why it's so strange, who can say for sure? There are far too many unexplainable mysterious places in the vast universe, so there's no need to bother about this. I don't mind telling you this. When Lord Qing led his troops into battle, he fell here. If not for the Dragon Riders, he would have died by our hands. I'm sure you haven't heard of this matter that concerns Lord Qing's reputation. "
The six of them exchanged glances. It was indeed their first time hearing about this. They had also heard that Lord Qing's mount was a divine beast — a dragon!
Miao Yi couldn't help asking again, "Can a dragon pass through the Realm of Chaotic Gods?" He looked at Charcoal beneath him.
In the end, Dou Yuanhao didn't pay any more attention to him.
Once they were out of the Realm of Chaotic Gods, their flying speed returned to normal.
There was a gap in the turbulent space currents that could even tear the Red Crystal Armor to shreds. Dou Yuanhao was able to find it and bring the six of them through.
The vast and boundless floating dust swirled like the clouds. Amidst the friction, there was an invisible noise that could kill. It was impossible to guard against, but Dou Yuanhao had a way to deal with it.
The empty star field seemed calm, but in reality, there was a huge pressure hidden within. Dou Yuanhao led them around it in advance.
The star field seemed harmless. Dou Yuanhao told the six of them to close their eyes. Otherwise, they would go blind.
There was also the star field that overflowed with colorful lights. It could cause auditory and visual hallucinations, making one feel as if they had fallen into an illusion.
The six of them were deeply shocked by the various phenomena they encountered along the way. Dou Yuanhao had a way to bring them through some places directly, but there were also places he couldn't. He had to take a long detour and take a long detour.
There were all sorts of mysterious phenomena that were impossible to guard against. The six of them couldn't imagine how this place could be so complicated. They also couldn't imagine how these traitors trapped in hell managed to master the environment here. They didn't even need to guess to know that this familiarity must have been obtained by sacrificing countless lives. They finally understood why this place was called the Purgatory.
Miao Yi finally understood why the Celestial Court had sent so many people to hell to participate in the trials. This was a place that even the Celestial Emperor himself couldn't conquer. How could a bunch of Golden Lotus cultivators handle it? Coming here was basically suicide. Even if they sent someone with a cultivation higher than the Golden Lotus cultivator, it would be useless. This place wasn't something that could be conquered by just cultivation. No matter how high one's cultivation was, it would be useless if they didn't understand the situation here. Unless their cultivation was so high that they could destroy a large area of space, they had never heard of anyone with such strength that could disregard the existence of the universe.
The Celestial Court was trying to pile up human lives!
After witnessing the strange and unpredictable situation here, Miao Yi didn't believe that these one million and eight hundred thousand people would be able to find out anything. The Celestial Court must have known that even if they could gain something, it wouldn't be much.
Hence, they were basically using human lives to explore the path, trying to advance bit by bit!
Hence, Miao Yi didn't need any insider information to be almost certain that this wouldn't be the only trial in the Purgatory. There would be more trials in the Purgatory after this, and they would continue to pile up human lives. Otherwise, it would be meaningless to throw these one million and eight hundred thousand people into hell.
Miao Yi guessed that the Celestial Court had thought that they had trapped the traitors of hell, so they didn't make any further moves. After all, the price of forcefully conquering hell was too high. In the end, after what Yun Aotian and the others had done, the Celestial Emperor probably wouldn't rest until the traitors of hell were completely eradicated. How could they allow outsiders to sleep in their beds, not to mention a bunch of traitors who had gone against the Celestial Emperor!
As he thought of this, Miao Yi, who was flying behind Dou Yuanhao, looked left and right, and transmitted his voice, "I say, old fogeys, do you know how much trouble you've caused by robbing the three Great Commanders of Heaven's Avenue? Do you know how many lives are going to be lost in your hands? "
Yun Aotian and the others weren't stupid. They all had grim expressions on their faces. If they hadn't made this trip, they wouldn't have known. Only now did they realize how much trouble they had caused. For the sake of getting rich, they'd actually opened up the curtain on the struggle between the Celestial Court and the traitors of hell. Who knew how many lives would be lost in this godforsaken place to quell the conflict!
The others were silent. No one answered, and no one knew what they were thinking.
Miao Yi was speechless. He continued to look left and right, thinking that if he could memorize the route they'd taken earlier and bring it back, he would definitely get first place in the trial.
But then, he cursed inwardly. It was precisely because he'd made this trip that if he couldn't get past these traitors, they wouldn't let him leave alive and divulge the secret. Perhaps even the lowest ranking traitors of hell didn't know about these secrets.
He turned back to the others and scolded, "Do I need you to look for me if you lack money?! The Five Sages went to rob others. I'm dead this time because of you! "
Situ Xiao transmitted her voice and sighed, "Do you think it's so easy to borrow Traitor Miao's money? It's not like we haven't borrowed it from you before. Think about what you're saying. Besides, I told you not to go too deep, but you insisted on coming. If we're talking about a scam, we're the ones who got scammed by you. "
Miao Yi immediately retorted, "You were the ones who insisted on following me. Now you're blaming me?"
Yun Aotian said, "You still have the mood to argue and push the blame onto each other? Think of a way to escape! "
On the other hand, Ji Huan secretly avoided Miao Yi and transmitted her voice to Yun Aotian and the others, "Maybe it's just a scare but not a real danger. Don't forget the Sorcerer's prophecy. You must have faith in the Sorcerer's divine foresight."
"When the Six Sons meet again, the storm will rise again!" Mu Fanjun sneered, "The Sorcerer's foresight is truly divine. With our actions, the Celestial Court and the traitors of hell will fight to the bitter end. The storm will rise again. That's right! But what happens after the storm rises again? The Sorcerer didn't say whether we'll live or die! "
Ji Huan said, "Since his foresight is so accurate, we should be fine. He said before that this is the turning point of our destiny. He wouldn't point us to a dead end."
"I hope so!" Cang Lei looked to his left and right, "But why do I feel that this matter is getting out of hand? I'm not confident!"
"Why are you avoiding me?" Miao Yi asked the five of them with a vigilant expression. Naturally, he could sense the transcendence energy fluctuations when the five of them were transmitting their voices. Things had already come to this. What else did they need to avoid him? He immediately warned, "I'm warning you. Don't try anything funny. If you betray my identity as an official of the Celestial Court, don't think you'll have an easy time either. I will also reveal all of your secrets …" As if he felt that this kind of threat was ineffective, he added, "Your daughters and disciples are all my concubines. If something happens to me, they won't have an easy time either. Save me. I have a friendly relationship with the Celestial Court's Supervising Envoy of the Right, Gao Guan, who is in charge of this assessment. Perhaps I can still think of a way to get you out of hell. "
