Chapter 1649
Outside the halo, apart from the majestic Realm Sea, there was only emptiness.
After entering the halo, the world suddenly changed. There were celestial mountains and celestial islands floating in the void. Everywhere was surrounded by multicolored light and celestial qi.
Gu Chen and the others looked at the scene in front of them in surprise. They looked into the distance and found that the Realm Sea was still there. However, outside the halo, it was in another space-time.
The ferry of the Realm Sea was located at the junction of this world and the Realm Sea. There were many towers around it. The main body was like a bridge in the shape of a long corridor. However, a part of the bridge was strangely broken in the void. It was obvious that it had not fully manifested.
Gu Chen's divine sense spread out immediately to search for the large group of Dao Lords who had entered first.
Soon, he found traces of the large group on a celestial island not far from the ferry. There were countless pavilions on the celestial island. It was obvious that a long time ago, they had built residences for people to rest.
The ferry of the Realm Sea had not fully manifested. It meant that there were still a few days before the emissaries from the Higher Realm arrived. No matter what plan Dao Lord Xing had, he could not carry it out now.
Therefore, the large group of cultivators stopped on the island to rest. The Dao Lords were nowhere to be seen. They might have hidden somewhere to discuss important matters.
"Let's find a place to rest too." Gu Chen said to the Dwarf Emperor who was controlling the ship.
Therefore, their ship quickly stopped on a celestial island. They maintained a distance from the large group in the distance.
Gu Chen knew that the various Dao Lords must have noticed his arrival. However, after what had happened previously, they could not do anything to him. They would definitely turn a blind eye to it.
He did not plan to interfere with their actions. Even he was not sure which method was right. Therefore, the only thing he could do now was to observe quietly!
Everyone settled on the celestial island. The island was filled with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers. In addition, there was no danger for the time being. Qian Family Patriarch, who always knew how to enjoy, set up a banquet. He took out his treasured wine and drank with everyone.
"There might be a tough battle in a few days. Some of us might never see each other again, including the great-grandson of the Old Man."
The Qian Family Patriarch said with a face full of emotions.
Everyone was distressed. Fatty Qian cultivated the Origin of Dreams, which was very unique. It was possible that he would be chosen by the emissary from the Upper Realm. Once he left, the Qian family would never see each other again. Naturally, they would not be in a good mood when they parted.
If it was just a separation, it would be fine. At least they would have a better future. But now there were so many variables.
Dao Lord Xing had attempted to act against the emissary of the Ascendant Realm, and the Hundred Commandery Daolords were currently in a state of observation. No one knew what their final decision would be.
Once they chose to do something extreme, everyone else would have to take the risk as well, and their futures would be uncertain.
Therefore, this was not just a farewell. The cultivators of the Tyrant County, who were determined to enter the Primordial Chaos Dao World, were all feeling uneasy.
"Cheers! I wish everyone a bright future."
The Qian Clan's Patriarch raised his wine cup. Everyone responded and drained it in one gulp.
"The Qian Clan is indeed wealthy enough to rival a county. This wine is of the highest quality even in the hundred counties."
The Dwarf Sovereign praised after drinking it. However, no matter how delicious the wine was, he did not drink too much.
The scene of him being at loggerheads with the various Dao Lords was still vivid in his mind. At this juncture, no one drank too much.
Everyone agreed and meditated to adjust their state of mind.
On the other hand, Fatty Qian drank a few more cups because of his Great Grandfather's words. He had a long face.
"Great Grandfather, why don't I not go to the Primordial Chaos Dao World? What's so good about that place? Why do you insist on me going? Isn't it good if I stay and accompany you? "
Fatty Qian was actually a person without much ambition. The reason he participated in the Chaos Myriad Spirit List battle was because of the Qian Family's Patriarch.
"Fool! A man's ambition is everywhere. Everyone in the Primordial Chaos Dao World yearns for it. How can we give up the chance to go? The Old Man is still counting on you to bring our Qian Family to greater heights! "
The Qian Family's Patriarch berated him on the spot. He seemed to have drunk too much as his face and neck were red.
Gu Chen did not participate in the banquet. He watched from afar as the grandfather and grandson conversed, feeling a little envious.
He could not easily determine whether the Qian Family's Patriarch's thoughts were right or wrong. However, there was nothing wrong in wanting to give a better future for his descendants.
It had been a long time since he had experienced such a quarrel between family members. It reminded him of his family members whom he did not know if he would be able to see again in this life.
He quickly shook his head. This was not the time to think about such things. He turned his attention back to the distant Realm Sea Ferry.
Dao Lord Xing and the other Dao Lords should not find trouble with him at this juncture. However, it was better to be safe than sorry.
Two hours later …
"What's going on?"
Ge Huang, who was recuperating, suddenly felt dizzy. He could not exert any strength in his body as his expression changed.
"Not good!"
The Dwarf Sovereign's cultivation state was forcefully interrupted as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Immediately after, Dharma King Qingcang, Evil Shark Sovereign, Buddha Emperor, Feng Yaya, Formless Woman … many people had abnormal reactions and collapsed!
"What happened?"
Such a sudden commotion shocked Gu Chen. He retracted his gaze from the distance and stood up.
He looked around and realized that apart from Nameless, Zuo Chunqiu, and the Qian Family's Patriarch, all his companions had collapsed!
"They've been poisoned!"
Zuo Chunqiu looked at the Buddha Emperor, who was closest to him, and realized that the Buddha Emperor's face had stiffened. Starting from his thighs, his body had inexplicably started to solidify into stone!
"Why would they be poisoned out of nowhere? Dao Lord Xing did it? "
Gu Chen was extremely shocked. His first thought was that this was Dao Lord Xing's doing.
Although he had removed everyone's punishment seals, there was no guarantee that he had not done something else while they were imprisoned in the Door of Dao and Decay!
"It shouldn't be. There's nothing wrong with me. Moreover, this poison is very strange."
Zuo Chunqiu's eyes flickered. He had also fallen for Dao Lord Xing's trick previously. If it was his doing, there was no reason for everyone to be poisoned but him.
Therefore, there must be another reason why everyone was suddenly poisoned!
"That wine …"
Zuo Chunqiu suddenly recalled the situation when they were drinking. Those who were still standing seemed to have not drunk before!
With this reminder, Gu Chen and Nameless looked at the Qian Family's Patriarch!
At this time, the Qian Family's Patriarch was holding Fatty Qian in his arms. Fatty Qian had also been poisoned, and it seemed to be acting up faster than the others. Half of his body had already solidified into stone.
However, the Qian Family's Patriarch did not panic. Instead, he looked very calm.
"Grandpa Zeng, what's wrong with me?" Fatty Qian's lips trembled, and his voice was extremely weak. It was difficult for him to even open his mouth to speak.
The poison spread too quickly, causing everyone who was poisoned to lose their ability to move and become like stone!
