295: Chapter 295 Emotional Values Are High! Deceiving the Remnant Soul of the God of War!
The moment Su Changge stepped into the star gate, a sense of weightlessness washed over him.
The scenery before his eyes blurred.
By the time he regained his footing, he had arrived in a completely foreign place.
There was no sun or stars in the sky, only broken star husks of various sizes floating in mid-air, emitting a faint silver glow.
The ground was scorched black, with broken swords and skeletal remains scattered everywhere; some skeletons were taller than mountains, with slaughterous Evil Qi and Killing Intent seeping from the gaps in the bones.
The wind was strong, howling as it blew against him like the wailing of ghosts.
The Spiritual Qi in the air was abundant, but it was mixed with thick slaughterous Evil Qi; taking a single breath made one's chest feel slightly tight.
Willow coughed twice, her small face turning a bit pale.
Su Changge quickly took out two poison dispelling pills from his robe and fed them to Willow and Little Stone.
Fortunately, he had prepared poison dispelling pills for them beforehand, otherwise these two children wouldn't have been able to withstand the Evil Qi here.
[Damn, the environment of these Shattered Star Ancient Ruins is a bit too harsh, even more intense than the Burial Star Plain.]
[Luckily my passive is Immunity to Ten Thousand Laws, so this Evil Qi can't harm me.]
Su Changge looked around; it was quiet, with no sound other than the wind.
In the distance, the silhouette of a ruined city could be seen, built from meteoric iron; its crumbling walls and debris made it look long abandoned.
Behind the ruined city, a faint red light was emerging, which should be the location of the Star Flame.
[Is that the core area? The Shattering Star Art Incomplete Manual should be in that ruined city.]
[I'll go check it out first. If I run into some Cultivators on the way, I can earn some emotion points.]
Su Changge held Little Stone and led Willow by the hand, just as he was about to head towards the ruined city.
The star gate behind him lit up, and Blood Bone Old Demon and Dao Monarch Yun Xing stepped out from within.
As soon as the two landed, they quickly circulated their spiritual power to block the surrounding Evil Qi, their faces turning slightly pale.
They were Cultivators at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage, yet even they felt uncomfortable being buffeted by the Evil Qi here.
Looking up at Su Changge, they saw him standing there without even circulating his spiritual power, completely unaffected, and the two children were also lively and well.
The awe in their hearts for Su Changge grew a bit more.
As expected of a Saint, he doesn't even care about this bit of Evil Qi.
"Immortal Venerable, where should we go next?" Blood Bone Old Demon stepped forward and asked respectfully.
Su Changge pointed his finger towards the ruined city in the distance.
"Go there."
Blood Bone Old Demon and Dao Monarch Yun Xing nodded quickly.
"Yes, Immortal Venerable."
The two glanced at each other and took the initiative to walk in front of Su Changge to clear the path for him.
Dao Monarch Yun Xing walked on the far left, and Blood Bone Old Demon on the far right, protecting Su Changge and the two children in the middle.
They were now completely won over by Su Changge's strength and didn't dare to have any thoughts of betrayal.
Being able to follow a Saint into the ancient ruins was a blessing from eight lifetimes; perhaps they could even receive guidance from the Saint and Breakthrough to the True Immortal Realm.
Su Changge walked in the middle, looking at the backs of the two old demons, almost laughing out loud.
[Damn, these two guys are quite sensible, taking the initiative to be bodyguards.]
[When we run into danger later, I'll let them go first while I just slack off in the back.]
The four of them slowly walked towards the ruined city.
On the way, they encountered many wandering ghost Cultivators and star husk Puppets, all of which were easily dealt with by Blood Bone Old Demon and Dao Monarch Yun Xing.
Both were powerhouses at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage; dealing with these low-level monsters was as easy as chopping vegetables.
Su Changge followed behind, and without even having to lift a finger, he picked up many dropped star cores and Materials.
[Damn, this treatment is too good. I have bodyguards clearing the way and someone to pick up Materials.]
[These two guys are practically mobile tools; I've hit the jackpot.]
Su Changge was overjoyed, putting all the collected Materials into his Storage Pouch.
After walking for about an hour, they drew closer to the ruined city.
The surrounding Evil Qi grew denser, and more skeletal remains appeared on the ground; some skeletons still carried faint spiritual power fluctuations, clearly belonging to Cultivators who had died not long ago.
It seemed quite a few people had entered the Shattered Star Ancient Ruins ahead of time.
Su Changge raised an eyebrow, feeling a bit excited.
The more people, the better; only with more people can I earn more emotion points.
After walking a bit longer, they reached the gate of the ruined city.
The city gate was cast from meteoric iron and had a large hole in it, covered in marks from blades and swords.
On the wall next to the gate, dense runes and some ancient script were carved.
Dao Monarch Yun Xing stepped forward, looked at the script, and turned to speak respectfully to Su Changge.
"Immortal Venerable, these are characters of the ancient star cultivators. It says this city was a garrison for the Ancient War God, and the War God's Legacy is hidden inside."
Su Changge nodded, his face expressionless.
[Oh? There really is a War God Legacy? Then I've really struck it big this time.]
Su Changge was about to step through the city gate.
Blood Bone Old Demon suddenly frowned and stopped in his tracks.
"Immortal Venerable, wait, there's movement inside."
Just as he finished speaking.
An earth-shaking roar suddenly erupted from within the city.
The voice was deep and filled with thick Killing Intent, shaking the entire ground.
Debris from the city walls came crashing down.
The faces of Blood Bone Old Demon and Dao Monarch Yun Xing changed instantly.
"It's the remnant soul of the Ancient War God! He's awake!"
Su Changge stood in place, looking into the darkness of the city gate, his face showing no emotion.
[Damn, what is that? The sound is so loud. Could there really be a remnant soul of the War God?]
[But it doesn't matter, I have over a hundred million emotion points. Even if the War God's remnant soul comes, I can use special effects to fool him.]
Without hesitation, Su Changge held Little Stone and led Willow, stepping into the city gate.
Blood Bone Old Demon and Dao Monarch Yun Xing looked at each other, seeing the apprehension in each other's eyes, but they gritted their teeth and followed him in.
Just as they entered the city gate.
They saw a golden figure over ten meters tall standing in the central square of the ruined city, wearing shattered armor and holding a broken sword, with Killing Intent almost solidifying into substance.
The golden figure looked up towards Su Changge, its red eyes lighting up.
"I am the Vanguard under the Ancient War God. Who goes there? State your name!"
