489: Mo Fukui's life-or-death gamble!!
Undead Realm!
Mo Fukui hurriedly entered Tan Sheng’s room and communicated with him through a Bloodline secret art: “Junior Martial Uncle, Wen You got the map!”
“However, it only shows about a quarter of the route to Forbidden God Valley. As for the rest, it’s still a complete mystery.”
Tan Sheng sighed: “That’s already very good. Having even this small portion of the map means that we at least aren’t completely without hope.”
Mo Fukui firmly stated: “Junior Martial Uncle, I think so too.”
“This concerns the survival of our clan. Our clan’s fate is now hanging by a thread, and this small portion of the map is our only hope!”
“Therefore, I plan to go myself!”
“Please grant my request, Junior Martial Uncle!”
“You, old man, must stay here to avoid arousing the suspicion of the Undead Old Thief. The other three only possess Heaven and Earth Transformation, so their chances of entering Forbidden God Valley are too small.”
“Currently, only by going myself can I maximize our chances of seizing that sliver of hope!”
Seeing Mo Fukui’s determination and his attitude of facing death head-on, Tan Sheng thought for a moment and then agreed.
“Alright.”
“Fukui, go.”
“All the hope of our clan now rests on you alone.”
“If you fail, even if it arouses the Undead Old Thief’s suspicion, I will go myself.”
“Remember, don’t carry any burden!”
Mo Fukui’s expression was resolute: “I understand, Junior Martial Uncle!”
Soon after, Mo Fukui left the Undead Realm alone.
The Undead Dominator did not stop him. Tan Sheng and the other three were still within the Undead Realm.
If Mo Fukui dared to make any small moves, the lives of the other four would be on his head… Starry Sky Immortal Ship.
Chu Yun and his group had already sailed out of the Solar System and were heading north through the Starry Sky at full speed.
At this moment, Chu Yun and Zhuge Yun came out of the Immortal Ship together, looking leisurely at the deep Starry Sky.
“How much further to our destination?”
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Yun immediately replied: “We should arrive within a day at the latest.”
Chu Yun nodded, “Do you think we will gain anything from this trip to the Dominator’s Dao field?”
Regarding the question Chu Yun suddenly asked, Zhuge Yun gave a clever answer: “Your Majesty, in my opinion, just knowing such a place exists is already a gain.”
Chu Yun smiled: “You’re right.”
“However, what I can’t quite figure out is, which Dominator would set up their Dao field in such a remote place?”
Zhuge Yun calmly replied: “This question, I presume, will be answered once we arrive.”
Chu Yun took a deep breath. Just then, a message arrived; it was from his second brother, Chu Huang.
Chu Yun opened it and immediately raised an eyebrow.
“Your Majesty, has something happened?” Zhuge Yun asked upon seeing his reaction.
“It’s my second brother.”
“Not long ago, Wen You of the Starry Sky Alliance and Mo Fukui met once. A miniature recording array left by my second brother happened to capture this scene.”
“Now, he has obtained absolute evidence of Wen You’s collusion with the Death Curse Clan.”
After listening, Zhuge Yun did not show joy: “So, is Second Young Master planning to use this to overthrow Wen You’s position as Vice-Alliance Leader?”
Chu Yun shook his head: “Impossible.”
“The reason Wen You is difficult to unseat, besides his deeply entrenched position, is primarily his influence and strength.”
“Nearly forty percent of the Immortal King-level powerhouses within the Starry Sky Alliance are his people!”
“Unless the Alliance Leader of the Starry Sky Alliance personally intervenes, even with evidence, my second brother currently lacks the ability to forcefully remove Wen You.”
Zhuge Yun agreed wholeheartedly; this was why he didn’t show joy upon hearing the news.
Evidence can only accuse, but strength is the ultimate truth.
“Actually, Second Young Master could hand over the evidence to his Revered Master and let the Alliance Leader of the Starry Sky Alliance handle this matter,” Zhuge Yun suggested.
Chu Yun glanced at him, then continued, holding the message: “My second brother is doing just that.”
“But he said it’s very strange; his Revered Master doesn’t seem to want to get involved, and my second brother even suspects that his Revered Master already knew about this.”
Zhuge Yun was somewhat surprised: “Already knew?”
“Could it be that this Alliance Leader of the Starry Sky Alliance also has secret dealings with the Death Curse Clan?”
Chu Yun shook his head: “Uncertain.”
“However, the Death Curse Clan is currently under the control of the Undead Realm, essentially subordinates of the Undead Dominator.”
“If there was collusion, given the identity of the Starry Sky Alliance Leader, wouldn’t it be a bit beneath him?”
Zhuge Yun then put forth a very bold conjecture: “Is it possible that this Undead Dominator is the Alliance Leader of the Starry Sky Alliance?”
Chu Yun’s eyes widened as he looked at him.
There was also some shock in his eyes; this guess was indeed bold enough.
However, when Chu Yun thought about it carefully, it wasn’t entirely impossible.
After all, no one had ever seen this Starry Sky Alliance Leader to this day.
Even Dominators couldn’t find him.
And if he were one of the Dominators, then it would seem somewhat reasonable.
“These are all just one-sided speculations.”
“Without any evidence, no one can draw a conclusion.”
“Alright, I’ll go in and rest first.”
“Call me when we arrive.”
Chu Yun was too lazy to keep thinking so much and turned to walk towards the resting room.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
...Celestial Phenomenon World.
Immortal mist swirled, with the Immortal Court at its center.
Inside the Immortal Palace, the Celestial Phenomenon Sovereign and an Incarnation of Third Master were playing chess.
Looking at the chessboard before him, the Celestial Phenomenon Sovereign held a chess piece for a long time, then finally said helplessly: “Alas, I’ve lost another game to you.”
“Revered Master, sometimes I wonder, in terms of the Dao of chess alone, have you ever encountered an opponent stronger than you in this world?”
The Celestial Phenomenon Sovereign’s question came from the heart.
He was also very interested in the Dao of chess. Over the years, he had defeated Chaos, Undead, and Asura, these Dominator-level powerhouses.
Yet, only against Third Master, over all these years, he had never won a single game.
This deep sense of frustration left even him, a Dominator, helpless.
“Currently… probably not yet.”
“At least I haven’t encountered one,” Third Master said with a faint smile.
The Celestial Phenomenon Sovereign shook his head and sighed: “Alas, in the contemporary Dao of chess, if you say you’re second, I fear no one would dare claim to be first.”
Then, their gazes temporarily shifted from the chessboard.
Third Master changed the subject: “On the Undead Dominator’s side, have you all handled it?”
The Celestial Phenomenon Sovereign nodded: “A ten-year deadline.”
“At that time, regardless of whether they can comprehend the Return of the God of Death, they must die.”
Third Master was not surprised by this outcome, “A ten-year deadline… there are many variables.”
“What do you mean, Revered Master?” the Celestial Phenomenon Sovereign pressed.
Third Master calmly stated: “No meaning. All things in the world have traces to follow.”
“Whether the Death Curse Clan lives or dies in the end is determined by fate.”
The Celestial Phenomenon Sovereign pondered his words, and finding no conclusion, he turned to ask: “By the way, Revered Master, I haven’t asked you yet, why did you suddenly have the leisure to visit my Celestial Phenomenon World?”
“Thinking back to the past decade or so, I cordially invited you, but you always refused me.”
Third Master calmly replied: “The Celestial Phenomenon Sovereign is not a petty person, so he naturally wouldn’t dwell on such things.”
“However, this Incarnation of mine indeed has one more matter to attend to.”
“Oh?”
“What is it? Do you need my assistance?” the Celestial Phenomenon Sovereign proactively asked.
Third Master calmly stated: “If the Dominator could condense a Clone to assist, that would naturally be best.”
The Celestial Phenomenon Sovereign smiled: “That’s naturally no problem, it’s just a Clone.”
“However, where are you going, Revered Master?”
Third Master replied: “Outside the Solar System, to a Dominator’s Dao field in the north.”
The Celestial Phenomenon Sovereign’s expression slightly trembled: “Dominator’s Dao field?”
