Falling Stars
Rumbling sounds rose and fell one after another. Even the heavens and earth seemed to be trembling.
Chu Xingyun and Ye Qianhan looked at this scene in surprise. They saw that the ground under their feet was trembling non-stop, and thick cracks appeared. This movement was getting louder and louder, as if something was about to break out of the ground.
"What's going on?" At this moment, Baili Kuangsheng and the other two finally arrived.
They stared at the chaotic battle in front of them and were shocked to find that the stars in the sky began to flicker without any pattern. The wind whistled through the sky, causing the atmosphere in the entire space to become extremely tense.
This strange phenomenon did not only appear here.
On the Starry Ancient Road.
Lin Jingxuan and Gu Tianjiao were still trapped here. Suddenly, the stars in the sky began to crazily jump. They shot through the air, emitting terrifying sonic booms.
What was even more strange was that these stars were gathering in the direction of the Qixing Holy Palace.
Whoosh!
A scarlet star fell. Its blazing aura seemed to be able to ignite the Void. When it hit the ground, it immediately set off a violent sea of fire, burning the ground and causing the ground to crack even more severely.
After this star fell, there were layers of flowing light. One star after another plunged down. Some were cold, some were sharp, and each had a different aura. However, the aura they possessed was incomparably terrifying. The starlight soared into the sky and seeped into the ground, causing a frenzied tremor.
Seeing this scene, everyone immediately flashed and kept dodging the falling stars. However, the number of stars was too large. They gathered from all over the ancient city and turned the Qixing Holy Palace into a land of stars!
"Gu Jingtian, what have you done!" Su Jingan suddenly turned around, only to find Gu Jingtian standing in the same place. His long black hair danced in the wind as he let out a maniacal laugh.
He looked at Liu Shiyun, who was gradually moving away from the place, and then looked away. He said indifferently, "To tell you the truth, the palace we are in is not the Qixing Holy Palace, but an academy."
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, everyone's gaze trembled. Su Muzhao sucked in a breath of cold air and said in a serious voice, "What do you mean by this?"
In the beginning, Su Muzhao and Gu Jingtian had traveled together. They had followed the ancient books to this ancient city, and the books clearly stated that there was a Qixing Holy Palace in the center of this ancient city.
Su Muzhao had read the ancient book clearly and did not believe Gu Jingtian's words.
"He shouldn't be lying. This place is indeed not like a Holy Palace.
Said Chu Xing Yun suddenly. His eyes were deep as he said calmly, "Before we even entered, I already felt that the statue was a bit strange. It didn't give off the feeling of a strong cultivator at all. Instead, it gave off a scholarly Qi. After we entered, we searched many times, but apart from many ancient books, we didn't find any treasures. It's very different from the other Temples."
"Also, have you all noticed that although the Ancient Road of the Starry Sky is mysterious, it won't harm anyone's life? It's as if it doesn't exist to exterminate outsiders, but more like a test?"
After hearing Chu Xingyun's words, Su Muzhao and the rest began to recall. Indeed, this place was very different from the other Temples. It was more like an academy filled with trials.
"I've long heard of Luo Yun Sword Master's sharp mind. Indeed, seeing is better than hearing about you." Gu Jingtian smiled again as he continued to spit out blood. Within the blood, there were remnants of his internal organs. It was obvious that he did not have long to live.
"Su Muzhao, you traveled with me and naturally saw that ancient book. However, you didn't know that I had it in my hands long ago and secretly tore off a few pages."
Gu Jingtian stretched out his hand. There were a few pieces of yellowed paper in his palm. He continued, "According to the ancient books, the real location of the Star Equaling Holy Palace is under the academy. It is connected to the Celestial Master's palace and is the most important holy palace in the Ancient Star Mystery Dimension."
"Originally, I wanted to secretly open this Temple and take all the treasures. Unfortunately, man's calculations are not as good as God's. In the end, I couldn't even step through the door of the Equaling Star Temple …"
Gu Jingtian sighed deeply and raised his head. He looked at the stars in the sky that were getting brighter and brighter. He grinned and said, "The statue behind me is the key to opening the Equaling Star Temple. I have to break the array before I can safely enter the Temple. On the contrary, if I forcefully break the array, the stars will fall out of control and bring about a shocking catastrophe!"
Thump!
Everyone's hearts trembled violently. At the same time, the stars fell even faster. The entire ancient city was in complete chaos. The buildings collapsed and the spiritual energy was annihilated. Under the flickering stars, the entire dark world became as bright as day.
"Madman, you're a madman!" Su Muzhao shouted coldly. She did not dare to stay there for long. She waved her sleeves and her red dress fluttered. She ran out at an extremely fast speed to escape the place.
She was not the only one. Everyone present, except for Gu Jingtian, stirred up their spiritual energy and ran out while avoiding the stars.
However, as time continued to pass, the stars fell faster and faster. When the starlight penetrated the ground, it caused the earth to tremble violently. Deep pits appeared in everyone's field of vision and were sinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.
A rumbling sound rang out, causing the space to tremble. Everyone looked down and their eyes suddenly froze.
They saw that the ground had completely disappeared!
A vacuum appeared below, and a vast and majestic palace was located in that space. Endless starlight coiled around it, and its domineering aura soared into the sky. It seemed as if it could soar into the nine heavens and shine alongside the stars.
"What a terrifying aura. That is the real Equaling Star Temple!" Seeing this shocking palace, Su Jingan's gaze instantly froze. However, he did not dare to approach the Equaling Star Temple. Instead, he ran out at full speed.
There was no other reason. Around the Equaling Star Temple, there were tens of thousands of stars. The brilliance was dazzling. The aura of the starlight was extremely tyrannical. When they gathered together, it was like a starlight storm, enveloping the entire Equaling Star Temple.
With such vast starlight and such a terrifying aura, how could one survive once trapped in it?
"All of you, stay here!" Gu Jingtian stood up shakily. His hands moved as he urged the Thousand Star Compass with all his strength. A ray of starlight was released from his body and swept into the Equaling Star Temple, completely destroying the balance of the starlight.
In an instant, the starlight storm boiled and a terrifying suction force was released. It descended on everyone, suppressing their spiritual seas and binding their physiques. It even dragged them into the Equaling Star Temple bit by bit.
"Don't try to resist. You will never leave here alive." Gu Jingtian's voice became more and more deranged. Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of blood. His body fell down powerlessly and was instantly sucked into the starlight storm.
Seeing Gu Jingtian disappear before their eyes, everyone's heart was unusually heavy. At this moment, a sharp wind suddenly came. Behind them, Ye Qianhan's body trembled. She was actually bound by the suction force of the starlight storm and fell rapidly.
Before this, Ye Qianhan's body was penetrated by the Purple Light Wu Ling. Not only was she seriously injured, but she was also unable to circulate her spiritual power. This injury did not get better and continued to hurt her, so she was unable to resist the suction force.
"Damn it!" Chu Xingyun gritted his teeth. Without any hesitation, he turned around and immediately pushed his speed to the limit. He quickly rushed in the direction of Ye Qianhan.
"Luo Yun, what are you doing!" Seeing this, Baili Kuangsheng immediately exclaimed. He immediately stopped and was about to enter the starlight storm with Chu Xingyun.
Whoosh!
A pitch-black sword ray flashed and bloomed in front of Baili Kuangsheng, blocking his movement. At the same time, Chu Xingyun's voice rang out, "You all leave here first. I will immediately meet up with you after I save Ye Qianhan."
