73: Jiuxiao Palace

A day later, Wu Ning returned to Tianwu Star.

"Young Master, you're back?"

Wu Shentong's eyes lit up with surprise, and he immediately went to greet him.

Wu Ning waved his hand and said, "I'll give you one day to prepare. Tomorrow, we move. I'll take you to Shura Star."

He had painstakingly taken down such a massive super planet and didn't want to hand it over to others for free.

It was useless for him to keep it, so he could only give it to the Wu Family.

After all, they were of the Wu Clan Bloodline, so they weren't outsiders.

"Move... to Shura Star?"

Wu Shentong was stunned for a moment, then his eyes suddenly widened, and he said in shock, "Young Master, you... you didn't destroy the Shura Divine Hall, did you?"

"What, is there a problem?"

"..."

"No, no problem!"

Wu Shentong swallowed hard and said with difficulty.

He felt a bit dizzy, perhaps too old to handle such stimulation.

The Shura Divine Hall was actually destroyed...

Damn!

Soon, the entire Wu Family was in motion, with everyone packing their belongings, preparing to move, creating a bustling scene.

Meanwhile, Wu Ning returned to his own palace.

He took out the hundreds of Storage Rings filled with Spirit Crystals.

Then, he summoned the chaos divine gourd.

He didn't use the Spirit Crystals first; instead, he threw all the Spirit Stones he had obtained from this trip into it.

It seemed like a lot, but in the end, it only condensed less than three hundred drops of Chaotic Source Fluid.

Wu Ning drank it all in one gulp.

Boom! Boom!

Vast and boundless energy surged into his body like a heavenly river torrent, and the Supreme Scripture immediately began to Cultivate on its own.

This one gulp was three million years of Cultivation.

Wu Ning felt an unprecedented sense of fullness in his body, so comfortable that he almost groaned.

He felt as if his body was undergoing some kind of transformation, but it wasn't very obvious.

A long time later.

The torrent of energy within his body gradually stabilized.

"Whew—!"

Wu Ning exhaled, feeling his body filled with power, as if he could punch and explode an Emperor.

This was not an illusion.

A single punch with over three million years of Cultivation—a typical Emperor would definitely not be able to withstand it!

"Hmm? Has a day already passed so quickly?"

Wu Ning swept his Divine Sense and found Wu Shentong and several Wu Family Great Emperors waiting outside the palace.

"Are you all packed?"

Wu Ning walked out of the palace and asked them.

"Young Master, we are all packed and ready to depart at any time!"

Wu Shentong's eyes held a hint of excitement.

Wu Ning nodded slightly, "Alright then, let's depart now."

A moment later.

The Star Shuttle soared into the sky, pierced through the clouds, and then directly broke through space and departed.

Wu Shentong was extremely bold; the entire Wu Family moved, with only one Peak Quasi-Emperor left to guard the ancestral home.

He had already tied the entire Wu Family to Wu Ning's ship.

...

At the same time.

The news of the Shura Divine Hall's destruction had completely spread among the major top forces in the Star Domain.

There was an uproar, and countless people discussed it endlessly.

The fact that a hegemonic force like the Shura Divine Hall was destroyed without a sound made all the major top forces feel insecure, and they all dispatched scouts to the Nine Heavens Star System to gather information.

At the same time, various conjectures flashed through their minds, and they all coincidentally believed that the culprit who annihilated the Shura Divine Hall was very likely the Nine Heavens Palace.

Nine Heavens Star System, Nine Heavens Palace.

A gentle breeze brushed by, and the clear waves rippled.

In the pavilion in the middle of the lake, an old man and a young man were playing chess.

"Xiao Quan, what do you think of this matter?"

The old man placed a piece and asked casually.

"Grandmaster, according to the information currently gathered, that person's strength, though strong, should not have Breakthrough to the Immortal Rank. The reason he was able to destroy the Shura Divine Hall was entirely by relying on a Magic Treasure."

"I speculate that it should be an Immortal Artifact!"

"A true Immortal Artifact!"

"A true Immortal Artifact?" The old man's expression shifted slightly.

In the Nine Heavens Star Region, some Immortal Dao lineages possessed "Pseudo-Immortal Artifacts" as their foundation.

The so-called "Pseudo-Immortal Artifacts" were weapons and Magic Treasures that had been refined by Immortals, imbued with the Immortal's magical power and Dao rhythm, making their power far superior to Emperor Weapons.

But they certainly couldn't compare to a true Immortal Artifact!

The Shura Divine Hall naturally possessed "Pseudo-Immortal Artifacts," and quite a few of them.

A Magic Treasure capable of destroying the Shura Divine Hall was very likely a true Immortal Artifact!

A hint of contemplation appeared in the old man's eyes, "That person has not yet Breakthrough to the Immortal Rank; how could he possess an Immortal Artifact?"

"Could it be..."

The young man smiled slightly, "Grandmaster's guess is correct; that person should not be from this Realm."

"The world knows that Immortals can Ascend to the Upper Realm, but few know that people from the Upper Realm can also travel to the Lower Realm."

The so-called Upper Realm and Lower Realm were merely terms.

Their Nine Heavens Palace had long established its Dao lineage in the Upper Realm, knowing far more information than others.

It was precisely because of this that the Nine Heavens Palace was the only Dominator-Rank force in the Nine Heavens Star Region.

"Someone from the Upper Realm, huh? It seems I'll have to pay a visit when I have the chance."

The old man said with a faint smile.

...

The Star Shuttle arrived at Shura Star.

Wu Ning frowned slightly; the Formation he had set up in the Shura Divine Hall had actually been broken!

"Heh, well done!"

"It seems there really are people not afraid of death!"

Wu Shentong saw the cold smile on his face and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, asking cautiously, "Young Master, has something happened?"

"Just a small matter. You settle the Wu Family members; I'll handle this myself."

Wu Ning stepped out of the Star Shuttle and appeared above the Shura Divine Hall.

At this moment, the vast Shura Divine Hall was filled with people, but the highest Cultivation was only three Great Emperors.

The rest were almost all Quasi-Emperors and Venerables.

They were likely all here to pick up scraps.

With their strength, they could never have broken the "Pseudo-Immortal Rank" Formation he had set up.

It seemed that someone had learned the truth about the Shura Divine Hall's destruction but was unwilling to accept it, so they secretly came to Shura Star while he was away, broke the Formation, and wanted to enter the Shura Divine Hall to search for treasures.

"Heh heh, do they think they can hide it from me by acting stealthily?"

Wu Ning smiled coldly.

Boom!

A vast and terrifying pressure erupted, instantly enveloping the entire Shura Divine Hall.

"Three breaths. Leave or die!"

They were just small fries; Wu Ning was too lazy to bother with them.

"Quick... run!"

"So terrifying!"

The people in the Divine Hall were instantly scared out of their wits and immediately fled frantically in disarray, wishing their parents had given them two more legs.

The three Great Emperors fled directly into the starry sky.

"What a terrifying powerhouse, who is this person?"

The three looked at the direction of Shura Star, still shaken, and secretly felt lucky.

If that person had harbored killing intent, they would have already been dead.

At this moment, Wu Ning was inspecting the various Secret Realms.

Besides the three treasure vault Secret Realms, the Shura Divine Hall also had several Cultivation Secret Realms.

Last time, he had only briefly checked them and hadn't had time to thoroughly search, so there were definitely many good things still inside.

Upon inspection now, a full three Cultivation Secret Realms had been plundered.

They were plundered even cleaner than he had done, not even a single Spirit Jade floor tile or a single top-grade Spirit Medicine was spared!

The method was truly professional!

"Damn it, how dare they take advantage of me!"

"Xiao Hei, immediately find out which bastard did this. I will make him regret ever coming into this world!"
