Chapter 1990: Entrance to the Secret Realm! (2)
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Countless streaks of light, like silver raindrops, poured down from the sky.The meteor shower had arrived.
“It’s now!”
Luo Qingchen’s eyes flashed with determination, leaving no room for hesitation.
“Go!”
He shouted softly, leading the charge out of the crevice.
Lin Wan’er and Su Xiaowan followed closely behind.
The three moved with ghostly speed, using the cover of darkness and the complex terrain to silently return to the ancient altar.
Luo Qingchen once again took out the Star Map bronze plate and placed it in the central groove of the altar.
He took a deep breath, and without reservation, infused his recently recovered Chaotic Power into it.
“Buzz!”
The bronze plate lit up once more.
The ancient runes on the altar were illuminated one after another.
At the same time, the falling meteors seemed to be drawn by some mysterious force.
Pure Star Force separated from the streaks of light, merging into a silver river from the sky, pouring precisely onto the altar.
With this immense energy supplement, the altar’s radiance grew even brighter.
The shadow of the Star Gate, hidden within the spatial crack before, appeared again.
This time, it was clearer and more solid than before.
In the center of the Star Gate, a vortex emitting soft white light began to slowly rotate, forming.
That was the entrance to the Secret Realm.
However, such a massive energy fluctuation was like lighting an exceptionally bright beacon in the night.
“Roar—!”
A earth-shattering roar echoed from deep within Heavenly Desperate Cliff.
Soon afterward, a black giant ape, as large as a hill, charged out from the mist.
Its eyes were blood-red, exuding a terrifying aura equivalent to the Refining Stage.
Clearly, it was awakened by the earlier commotion and attracted by the altar’s energy, a powerful demonic beast.
But that wasn’t all.
With the giant ape’s appearance, strange howls resounded from the mist in all directions.
Giant centipedes, winged eerie lizards, bone wolves engulfed in You Ming flames…
Dozens of powerful demonic beasts, sleeping for unknown ages in the depths of Heavenly Desperate Cliff, were now all awakened.
Their goal was singular.
It was the energy vortex on the altar, exuding endless allure.
“This is bad!”
Su Xiaowan’s face instantly turned pale.
Any one of these demonic beasts was capable of overwhelming them, and now there was a group.
What’s worse, twelve figures in black robes emerged ghost-like from the shadows behind those demonic beasts.
They exuded a cold and eerie aura, allies of those Black-clothed Cultivators encountered in the Spirit Ore earlier.
They were clearly attracted by the phenomena as well, aiming to harvest the spoils.
For a moment, around the altar, murderous intent lurked everywhere.
The vortex entrance at the center of the altar began to slowly shrink, visibly to the naked eye.
Time was running out for them.
“Xiaowan, set the formation! Hold them off!”
Luo Qingchen decisively yelled.
“Wan’er, cover us!”
“Understood!”
Su Xiaowan didn’t hesitate, throwing out every Defense Talisman and Array Plate she had.
Dozens of light screens instantly rose, forming a temporary defense circle, temporarily safeguarding the altar.
Lin Wan’er shouted sharply, the Green Vine Whip in her hand extending endlessly.
Numerous sturdy vines burst forth from the ground, like frenzied dancing pythons, entangling the attacking demonic beasts.
However, these demonic beasts were incredibly powerful.
Su Xiaowan’s light screens shattered like glass under the charge of a giant centipede.
Lin Wan’er’s vines were effortlessly torn to pieces by the giant ape in the Refining Stage.
The defense was on the verge of being completely destroyed.
Suddenly, Bai Ling’er, whom Lin Wan’er had been guarding in her embrace, let out a clear and resounding dragon’s roar.
A pure and vast Dragon Power surged forth from her small body.
The demonic beasts that were madly attacking all paused in unison.
For the first time, fear appeared in their eyes.
Even the strongest giant ape instinctively stepped back two steps.
It was this very moment!
Luo Qingchen’s eyes flashed coldly as he grabbed Lin Wan’er and Su Xiaowan by the waist.
He infused all the remaining Chaotic Power in his body into his feet.
“Go!”
He let out a low roar, his whole body shooting like an arrow toward the vortex at the closing entrance.
“You shall not escape!”
The leader of the Black-clothed Cultivators shouted angrily, as a pitch-black blade glow, carrying the aura of death, slashed towards the back of Luo Qingchen.
And the giant ape that had broken free from the Dragon Power roared angrily again, a massive fist crashing down like a mountain.
Luo Qingchen had no way to dodge.
He gritted his teeth and used his back to forcefully endure those two fatal attacks.
“Pfft!”
A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed into the air like a blood mist.
His body, using this tremendous push, finally brought the two women into the vortex, which had only a sliver remaining.
At the last moment when their figures disappeared.
Luo Qingchen glanced back.
He saw the crazy and furious roars of the demonic beasts.
He saw the unwilling and venomous eyes of the Black-clothed Cultivators.
He also saw that the entire Heavenly Desperate Cliff was starting to collapse under the uncontrolled energy.
Following that, endless darkness and a feeling of tearing completely engulfed him.
The dizziness brought by the spatial transmission felt like it lasted for a whole century.
When Luo Qingchen regained consciousness, he felt as if all the bones in his body had been disassembled and reassembled, causing excruciating pain.
He struggled to open his eyes, and what came into view was a sky so gloomy it was beyond words.
In the sky, there was no sun, no moon.
Only a massive, shattered star emitting a dark red glow, eternally hanging there, casting an eerie and oppressive light.
He painfully propped himself up, looking around.
A strong, mixed scent of rust, decay, and burnt permeated his nostrils, making him nearly vomit.
Under his feet was cracked, dark black scorched earth.
On the scorched earth were remnants of weapons, shattered armor, and countless age-eroded white bones.
In the distance, huge war machines appeared like the carcasses of ancient beasts, standing silently in the wilderness.
Broken banners hung limply in the windless air.
This place was not a treasure-filled Blessed Land.
But an endless, dead-silent ancient battlefield.
“Is this… the world behind the Star Gate?”
Su Xiaowan’s voice trembled slightly; she was completely shocked by the tragic and solemn scene before her.
Lin Wan’er’s brows furrowed deeply; she could sense a dense and violent aura filling the air.
This aura was cold, desperate, and full of hatred towards all living beings.
If ordinary cultivators stayed here for long, their minds would certainly be corrupted, eventually leading them to madness.
“Such a strong Evil Qi.”
Luo Qingchen said in a deep voice.
He discovered that the Chaotic Power within himself was spontaneously circulating in this environment, forming an invisible barrier, slowly purifying the Evil Qi attempting to invade his body.
He glanced at the two women beside him. Their faces were somewhat pale, clearly using their willpower to resist the erosion of the Evil Qi.
Without hesitation, Luo Qingchen divided some gentle Chaotic Power, transferring it into them to help fend off the omnipresent malice.
“Let’s find a place to rest and recover from our injuries first.”
Luo Qingchen said.
Taking those two assaults directly had severely injured him.
However, his words had barely fallen.
From beneath the scorched earth around them, a series of cracking sounds erupted.
One after another, pale skeletal hands suddenly stretched out from the ground.
Following that, skeletons clad in shattered armor staggered out of the earth.
In their eye sockets, two clusters of ghostly blue Soul Fire burned, their hollow jaws snapping open and closed, emitting soundless roars.
