Chapter 2249
Qian Mu's mother had lived a tough life. It could be seen from her situation.
Yi Qian's father hadn't shown up for so many years. It wasn't just because he was busy. Perhaps, they had just met once that year.
He didn't pay much attention to this encounter until Yi Qian's Divine Bloodline was found.
Yi Qian had become a goddess, but her mother hadn't gone to the celestial race, nor had she seen that person. It was as if she was imprisoned, living in this place. If there weren't any major accidents, she would probably spend the rest of her life in solitude and self-blame.
Her life was tough. Her only hope was that Yi Qian could live a good life. These three planets weren't just a simple gift. They were more like a trust.
Thus, Zi Chen was determined not to accept them. He couldn't bear this responsibility. He couldn't guarantee that he could bring happiness to Yi Qian. Of course, he couldn't guarantee that he would still be alive after accepting these three planets.
Yi Qian pulled Zi Chen away. Qian Mu's mother watched them leave. Her bright eyes dimmed down one more time. Until the two of them disappeared completely, she turned around to look at the lonely plants. She began to trim them carefully. She was so focused as if the plants had become her everything.
Only this way could she forget everything that had happened.
…
…
The two of them weren't in a good mood. The atmosphere was heavy. Ruth followed them, not even daring to breathe.
He was the Saint that people respected. He was the only Saint in this world, the strongest expert. However, in front of these two, he was nothing.
Apparently, the two of them weren't interested in talking. Thus, Ruth didn't even dare to inquire about Zi Chen's background. He could only follow them silently. The one who had reported to them last time was gone.
"Where is that place?" Zi Chen broke the silent atmosphere.
"In this world," answered Ruth respectfully.
"I heard that you've invaded this life star for a long time. Why haven't you opened a passage yet?" asked Zi Chen casually.
Speaking of this, Ruth couldn't help but sigh. "Sir, you don't know. Those fellows on the life star are too cunning. In fact, we had opened the Saint Passage dozens of years ago. Unfortunately, they ambushed us. We lost more than ten Saints, including a Saint King."
"There's such a thing?" Zi Chen was very surprised when he heard this. Even Yi Qian slightly tilted her head. She was also not clear about this matter.
"That time, the losses were extremely heavy. Those guys cheated and changed the rules of the Heavenly Dao, causing us to mistakenly think that we had avoided the Heavenly Dao and opened the passage. As a result, we suffered heavy losses. After that, they used some unknown method to change the rules of the Heavenly Dao, making it impossible for us to find a breakthrough. Over the years, we have tried to find many places, but we have been unable to break through the world barrier of the Zhan Wu Continent. However, in recent years, we have found a loophole here and are trying to open it.
Under Ruth's lead, the three of them came to a special space in this world. Ruth pointed at the space vortex in front of them and said proudly, "This loophole was left behind when our people retreated many years ago. Using this loophole, we can enter the Zhan Wu Continent."
Before the two of them entered the passage, Zi Chen heard someone cursing and swearing from inside. Then, a Saint stormed out with an angry face. "Those damn bastards! They used the rules of the Heavenly Dao to find a clue here. The previous loophole is disappearing."
The Saint who walked out spoke rudely. As soon as he lifted his head, he saw Zi Chen's group. After seeing Yi Qian, his face suddenly changed. He then respectfully bowed and said, "Nelly greets the Goddess."
The fact that Yi Qian was the Goddess had spread out in this endless starry sky. Just like how Yi Qian had a unique innate talent to become a Saint, everyone knew that it came from her God Clan bloodline.
"Nelly, what's going on?" asked Ruth.
"Those damn bastards are playing tricks again. I guess this passage can't be opened for the time being." Nelly said in frustration.
"Is that so? Let me have a look." Zi Chen said faintly.
"You are?" Nelly looked at Zi Chen with a puzzled expression.
"This is a Harmonious Spirit Master from the Star Path. He's with the Goddess." Ruth quickly introduced.
Nelly was taken aback and quickly bowed. It was his first time seeing a Harmonious Spirit Master. This kind of existence was a real big shot on the Star Path.
"Take me in and have a look." Zi Chen said faintly.
"Yes, Sir. Please follow me."
Nelly turned sideways and politely motioned Zi Chen to go forward.
Zi Chen and Yi Qian walked into the spatial whirlpool at the same time. There was an even larger space inside, and there were five Saints inside. They were sitting cross-legged outside a black hole, and from time to time, waves of energy would surge out from the black hole.
"Get out of the way. The Goddess and the Harmonious Spirit Master are here." Nelly shouted at the five Saints and waved his hand, indicating them to quickly move aside.
The five Saints stood up and respectfully bowed to the two of them before moving aside.
Yi Qian came to the edge of the black hole and looked down. It was pitch black and nothing could be seen.
Zi Chen retracted his gaze from the black hole and said in a deep voice, "There is indeed a very obscure fluctuation that is dissipating. If we can't open this place in half a month, then it will be impossible to open it again."
These Saints looked at each other. They weren't as sensitive as Zi Chen. Nelly asked cautiously, "Half a month is too short. We can't open it at all. Sir, do you have a way?"
Zi Chen's gaze swept across these Saints. The disdain in his eyes flashed and disappeared. He said indifferently, "Even if there is a way, you people can't open this place."
The Saints' faces immediately fell. As for the disdainful look from the Harmonious Spirit Master, it was easy to ignore.
Zi Chen changed the topic and said, "However, with the help of a Saint King, we can open the passage in three days."
"Three days."
The Saints' expressions all changed, but they didn't show too much difficulty. It could be seen that inviting a Saint King wasn't a very difficult thing to do.
"A Saint King came last time, but he didn't know how to open the space barrier. We …" Nelly looked at Zi Chen with some difficulty.
Zi Chen slightly frowned and said after a while, "How about this? Call that Saint King over. I'll teach him how to open the barrier."
Nelly, Ruth and the other Saints looked at each other and nodded. There was a trace of surprise in their eyes.
They signaled Zi Chen and Yi Qian to rest in the temporary camp. Ruth then went to find the Saint King.
"You really have a way?" In this temporary camp, there were only two people. Yi Qian asked curiously.
Zi Chen nodded, revealing a smile on his face.
Yi Qian read the real meaning in Zi Chen's smile, and her face revealed a playful smile. Yi Qian didn't know these people, so she didn't care about their lives.
Relatively speaking, Zi Chen was her friend. Of course, she would stand on his side.
"What are you going to do?" Yi Qian asked quietly.
"I don't need to do anything. I just need to open the passage."
Many years ago, if the existence of the life star could use some means to kill a Saint King and some Saints, it could be done this time as well. Indeed, Zi Chen didn't need to do anything.
Three days later, the Saint King came.
This was a Saint King whose body shone with a metallic luster. He had intentionally concealed his aura, but it still made the Saints nearby feel a powerful sense of oppression.
As soon as Zi Chen saw the other party, he knew that this Saint King was much stronger than the one he had met on the Star Path.
"Bei Qi greets the Goddess and Harmonious Spirit Master."
This Saint King apparently knew about the two from Nelly. He respectfully bowed to Yi Qian and politely greeted Zi Chen.
Only the Goddess could make a Saint King bow his head. Even a Harmonious Spirit Master couldn't. Zi Chen naturally couldn't be as indifferent as Yi Qian. He nodded and smiled at the Saint King. "Chen Zi."
"I heard from Nelly that you have a way to break this barrier." Bei Qi looked at Zi Chen and asked.
"I have a way, but I can't guarantee it." Zi Chen said politely.
"As long as you have a way, then I'll have to trouble you."
This was the first time they met, so they spoke politely. A Saint King didn't have the right to be arrogant in front of a Harmonious Spirit Master. Of course, a Harmonious Spirit Master who could walk unhindered in the Star Road also needed to treat a Saint King seriously.
Without too much politeness, the two came to the black hole. Bei Qi looked down at the passage and said, "Can you still sense the hole? Why can't I sense it?"
The other Saints shook their heads, indicating that they couldn't sense it.
"You can sense it by using some special laws."
Zi Chen smiled faintly. He raised his hand and sent out a ray of energy. It was a unique energy law of a Harmonious Spirit Master.
As this law entered the black hole, the hole in the laws of the Zhan Wu Continent was magnified many times. These Saints also sensed it, and their faces showed obvious surprise.
After clearly sensing the hole in the laws, the Saint King smiled sinisterly and said coldly, "Zhan Wu Continent, your doomsday has come."
Bei Qi turned to look at Zi Chen and asked politely, "I will fully cooperate with you. How long will it take?"
"Three days." Zi Chen extended three fingers.
"Good. Let me represent all the tribes in the universe to thank Lord Harmonious Spirit Master. After we set foot on that land, we will definitely bring some small toys for Lord."
This time, Bei Qi's words clearly carried a touch of respect.
"If you miss this opportunity, I'm afraid you will have to wait for another hundred years. You guys are in such a hurry. Could it be that the Lightning God Palace has already appeared?" Zi Chen asked doubtfully.
To Saints, the Lightning God Palace on the life star wasn't a secret.
"That's not important."
Saint King Bei Qi's eyes turned cold, revealing a resentful look. He said, "What's important is that as long as we can reach there and kill, it's enough."
