Yan Xiu didn't expect this Poison Star to have such a 'glorious' past. Looking at the hazy Poison Star before him, Yan Xiu was quite surprised. He had learned a lot today, but when he turned to look at Miao Yi, he couldn't help but feel a little confused. However, he wasn't someone who liked to talk nonsense. He only kept his suspicions to himself and didn't ask any further questions.
In his early years, he liked to drink and chat. He always carried a wine gourd with him, and could chat for half a day with Miao Yi. He considered himself a senior. Ever since his wife, Luo Zhen, died in battle, he stopped drinking and became less talkative. He could even go a few years without saying a word.
As for Miao Yi, who was sizing up the Poison Star, he had learned about its past from Yun Zhiqiu. As for how Yun Zhiqiu knew about it, it was very simple. It was because the Poison Star was the next location marked on the treasure map. Yun Zhiqiu had done a lot of research on it beforehand.
"I've heard of this place for a long time. Since I'm already here, there's no reason not to go take a look. Go over there and wait for me." Miao Yi pointed at a celestial body not too far away, then took out Miao Cun and tossed it over to Yan Xiu.
Yan Xiu naturally understood what Miao Cun's purpose was. At the very least, he was a witness to the previous incident. Miao Cun seemed to be a precautionary measure. If something were to happen, Miao Cun could save Yan Xiu some trouble. He couldn't help but say anxiously, "I'll go with you."
Miao Yi said, "The Poison Star is covered in poisonous miasma. It's best not to enter without thorough preparations. You'll be in danger if you go in. Don't worry, I'll be fine. "
Yan Xiu said, "I can enter your beast sack. If anything happens, I can look after you."
Miao Yi shot him a sidelong glance. Yan Xiu swallowed the words he wanted to say, then lowered his head and said, "Understood!"
Miao Yi flung his sleeves behind him and quickly charged towards the Poison Star. He didn't barge in directly, but circled around the planet to investigate, as if he was looking for something.
Yan Xiu sighed as he watched Miao Yi leave. He guessed that his guess was right. Miao Yi had already done his research on this Poison Star. It was obvious that he had been planning this for a long time. He didn't look like he was just here to hide or simply take a look. He realized that he couldn't understand Miao Yi anymore. He realized that Miao Yi seemed to have many mysteries about him that even he didn't understand. For example, that dazzling third eye. Also, why did he come to the Poison Star?
Miao Yi circled around the Venomous Star a few times, but he couldn't find the terrain he was looking for. There was simply too much haze in the Venomous Star, hindering his vision. He had the urge to activate his Heaven's Eye and search around. However, looking at the starry sky around him, he knew that he would be easily discovered. In the end, he gave up on the idea and charged into the Poison Star Aura Barrier.
The wind whistled, and the black or gray and white clouds drifted in the air like torrents.
As he descended from the sky, Miao Yi's figure paused and hovered high up in the sky. With the heart flame protecting his body, he surveyed his surroundings.
Liu Yun didn't seem to think much of it, but Miao Yi still didn't dare to underestimate him after Yun Zhiqiu's warning. Still, he wanted to give it a try. He extended a finger and began to remove the protection of the Heart Flame from his fingertip, exposing his fingertip to the passing clouds.
At first, he didn't feel anything, but after a while, his fingertips felt slightly numb, followed by a slight itch. His fingertips were visibly turning black and swollen. As he carefully examined his body, Miao Yi discovered that the tip of his finger was beginning to show signs of decay, and it was even spreading to the top of his body. As expected, there was poison. He quickly used the Fiery Star Art to cleanse his fingertip, removing the poison.
Suddenly, Miao Yi furrowed his brows. He took out the Starbell. It was a message from Yan Xiu, asking, "What is it?"
Yan Xiu: "Milord, I saw a group of people entering the Venomous Star." There were about twenty of them, and they were dressed a little strangely.
Miao Yi pondered for a moment. 'Who would come to the Venomous Star?' According to the information provided by Yun Zhiqiu, the Venomous Star was uninhabitable, so most people wouldn't come here. The only people who would often come to the Venomous Star to collect the Dream Dala.
The Dream Dala was a type of poisonous grass. This strange poison was different from ordinary poisons. Those who died from this poison didn't just die physically, but their souls. Once their souls were completely destroyed, the dead would never be able to reincarnate. There was another use for this poisonous grass. After Buddhist disciples refined it, they could use it to expiate the souls of the deceased. Some souls who were unwilling to be reincarnated and intended to become ghost cultivators could be expiated using this grass to help them put down their grudges and enter reincarnation.
When the Venomous Star was still the Namo Star, it didn't produce this kind of poisonous grass. After becoming the Venomous Star, the environment had changed, and it had actually become a place suitable for the Dream Dala to grow. Some people said that it was an unintentional move by the Demonic Monk Nan Bo, while others said that it was the real reason why the Demonic Monk Nan Bo had altered the environment of the Namo Star. His goal was to grow this poisonous grass. Perhaps only the Demonic Monk Nan Bo himself knew the truth.
Miao Yi pondered for a moment. He didn't think they were here for him. After all, what happened on Planet Huilin was still being kept a secret. He didn't want to be disturbed before he got his hands on the treasure, and the culprit wouldn't make it public either. It was more likely that they were here to collect the Dream Dala.
With this thought in mind, Miao Yi quickly replied to Yan Xiu, saying that he was fine. He then asked about the general direction the person had gone.
After putting away the Star Bell, Miao Yi's gaze darkened slightly. The vertical red mark on his forehead opened up, and his Heaven's Eye appeared once more. A resplendent beam of light shot out, and he turned his head to look in the direction Yan Xiu had pointed out. Now that his cultivation had reached the Colorful Lotus realm, his ability to control the Heaven's Eye was naturally much better than before. It was much easier for him now.
Soon, the Heaven's Eye's vision caught sight of the group of people Yan Xiu had described as oddly dressed. There were about twenty of them, and they were currently discussing something on top of a mountain.
His attire was indeed quite weird, too. He was covered from head to toe, and he seemed to be wearing a black jumpsuit. His sleeves and his trousers were all tied up, and his eyes were framed with crystal chips. It was obvious that he was wearing such an attire for anti-virus purposes.
Miao Yi couldn't tell whether they were men or women from their attire. Even with the Heaven's Eye's penetrative ability, he couldn't see through them. It was obvious that their clothes were very effective in protecting against poison. Otherwise, he would have been able to see through any gaps in their clothing. However, judging from their height and the facial features revealed by the crystal chips, Miao Yi could tell that they were all women.
These people quickly split up into groups of a few and spread out in all directions, searching for something in the undulating mountain range.
From this, Miao Yi was able to confirm his guess. They were probably the people who had collected the Dream Dala.
He retracted his Heaven's Eye's gaze and looked down at where he was. The land was desolate, and there were almost no plants or animals in sight. Rivers of various sizes twisted around the desolate land. The water looked clear, but it was obvious that the water that was exposed to this kind of environment was not drinkable. The water had an extractive effect, and he didn't know how much poison they had absorbed from the poisonous air.
'Whoosh!' Miao Yi tore out a large piece of cloth and wrapped it around his body to put on an act. The people who had collected the Dream Dala had reminded him that it would be too conspicuous if he was seen without any protection on his body. Thus, he wrapped his entire body and covered his head, revealing only his facial features.
After that, he used the cover of the clouds in the sky to avoid exposing himself as much as possible. He hid in the clouds and used his Heaven's Eye to scan the land, searching for the map and terrain that he had memorized in his mind.
This time, he was able to locate the target very quickly. It was also because the target was much more conspicuous.
Four hours later, Miao Yi hovered in the air and looked down at the land below. There was a huge palm print imprinted on the mountain range below, deeply embedded in the ground. It was as though a gigantic palm had slammed down from the sky. The surrounding mountain range arched up, and where the mountain range extended, it was broken into pieces.
With just a glance, Miao Yi felt a surge of cold air welling up in his heart. If the palm print he could see from such a high altitude was already so huge, then it was easy to imagine how wide the area covered by the palm print actually was. The power of this palm was also imaginable, and the strength of the person who had unleashed it was even more imaginable. To be able to create such a clear and vast area with a palm print, first of all, one had to be at a high enough altitude to make the attack. And to be able to unleash such a powerful force from such a far distance, it was simply unimaginable.
Miao Yi deduced that the person who had unleashed this attack would most likely have been able to destroy this gigantic planet with a single palm strike. It was just that they hadn't done so.
It wasn't hard to guess who had left this palm print behind. It could only be that demonic monk Nan Bo.
Even though many years had passed, from the way the palm had crushed the ruins, Miao Yi could vaguely tell that many houses and buildings had been destroyed by that palm strike. It was as though a piece of dough had been flattened into a pancake. It was easy to tell just from the contours.
Looking at the surrounding terrain from high up in the sky, Miao Yi deduced that the location of the palm print was the location indicated on the treasure map. As for the exact location of the treasure, there was only one sentence written on the map.
'Namo Legacy!'
Considering the history of the rise and fall of the Namo Planet, this sentence wasn't hard to understand. Even Yun Zhiqiu, who had never gone on a treasure hunt before, could roughly guess the meaning behind this sentence. The location of the Namo Gate's ruins was where the Namo Gate used to be.
Miao Yi, wrapped in black cloth, descended from the sky and landed in the basin created by the gigantic palm print. He landed on the largest contour of the ruins, which was probably the center of the palm print.
He could make out the contours of the ruins from the sky, but when he landed on the ground, he felt like he was in a desolate wasteland. He couldn't see any ruins at all, and his vision was limited.
'Whoosh!' Miao Yi suddenly spun around, his powerful transcendence energy surging out in all directions. The dust-covered ground kicked up a cloud of dust that spread in all directions.
Beneath Miao Yi's feet was a gigantic stone pillar. Even though it had been smashed into the ground, its contours were still intact. It was easy to tell that it had been a gigantic stone pillar before it was shattered.
Some of the items buried underground were gradually blown out of the ground. There wasn't just one gigantic stone pillar, but many of them. It was obvious just how vast this temple had been in the past.
There were also many flattened metal utensils that were rusted beyond recognition. There was even the contours of the roof that had been smashed into the ground.
Miao Yi paced around as he looked around. He could imagine the moment when this place had been reduced to dust in the blink of an eye. He could also vaguely sense the meaning behind the words' Namo Legacy 'from the dismal sight of the dust being lifted. It was both a lamentation for the endless existence of the Namo Gate, and also a clue that pointed to the center of the ruins as the place to search for the treasure.
Miao Yi merely sighed inwardly. He didn't have much of a concept or attachment to the Namo Gate, so he was more interested in confirming the coordinates of the treasure hunt.
