188: Chapter 186: Fishhook Reappears, Forced Landing on the Desolate Star

Jun Mengqing's face was filled with astonishment; it was too late to stop Gu Shengge, so she could only let him continue.

The two Heavenly Soldiers looked bewildered, turning to Jun Mengqing with a puzzled expression: "Are you from the Jietian Sect?"

Jun Mengqing rolled her eyes at them: "Can I say no?"

One Heavenly Soldier's face broke into a smile: "Oh, why didn't you say so earlier? Your Senior from the Jietian Sect already gave us a heads-up. If you had revealed your identity sooner, you could have gone straight through!"

Jun Mengqing and Gu Shengge were both half-believing, half-doubting, and just smiled.

Jun Mengqing said: "Since that's the case, then let us pass."

One of the Heavenly Soldiers quickly stepped forward to lead the way, guiding the two towards the teleportation platform after Ascension.

They trod on clouds and mist, finally seeing the white jade pillars and the archway of the Heavenly Gate.

"Seniors, just pass through here, and you will arrive at a Major Thousand Worlds within the Zhongtian Star Domain. Please proceed," the Heavenly Soldier respectfully said.

Divine light gleamed in Gu Shengge's heavy pupils. The spatial barrier ahead was analyzed and integrated into the jade disc of creation, which then began to deduce their landing point.

The Heavenly Soldier behind him was sweating profusely, his eyes flickering with a guilty conscience.

"Wait a moment! I completely forgot, I forgot to give you the token."

As he spoke, he swiftly placed a golden token into Jun Mengqing's hand.

"If there are no other issues, I'll head back now. The Heavenly Gate cannot be left unattended! Goodbye!"

He quickly ran off, leaving only Gu Shengge and Jun Mengqing.

Jun Mengqing glanced at the token in her hand, which bore the characters "Major Thousand."

Jun Mengqing presented the token to Gu Shengge, asking blankly: "What does he mean by this?"

"It means he tried to trick us just now. I deduced that if we had gone through directly from here, we would most likely have been sent to some barren, desolate star. Then we would have had to find a way to cross the Void Realm to reach another Major Thousand Worlds."

Jun Mengqing's face was filled with astonishment. She turned to look at where the two Heavenly Soldiers had been, but the golden city wall was gradually dissipating, the sky was being refilled, and the entire firmament returned to silence.

Jun Mengqing was about to go and apprehend them, but the golden Heavenly Wall barrier had completely vanished.

Jun Mengqing usually acted gentle and virtuous in front of Gu Shengge, but at this moment, she almost lost her composure. She stepped into the air, wanting to give chase, but Gu Shengge grabbed her by the collar and pulled her back.

"Don't make a fuss. We have the travel pass now, let's go to the transit world first."

As the two stepped forward, about to pass through the Heavenly Gate, Jun Mengqing grabbed Gu Shengge's hand.

Seeing Gu Shengge look at her, she explained with a darting gaze: "Um, there's only one token, and I'm afraid we'll get separated. Benefactor, you wouldn't mind, would you?"

Gu Shengge clasped her hand in return: "No, I'm also worried we might be tricked into ending up on two different stars."

Hand in hand, the two passed through the Heavenly Gate. The Law light screen ahead flickered, spatial Laws surged, and the surrounding world shifted. They seemed to be in the midst of the starry sky.

There was no up, down, or four directions in this world; it was silent. Amidst the twinkling stars, a gigantic fish tail emerged, sweeping aside stars with its movements, stirring up violent spatial tides.

They had encountered similar energy auras when Jun Mengqing and he were directly teleported from the Qiongsang Domain to the Zhongtian Region, but at that time, silver fishing lines had also fallen. Now, there was no trace of them.

As the two were wondering, a silver line whipped through the sky, ignoring the large fish and flying towards them.

Gu Shengge and Jun Mengqing both changed their expressions dramatically. The silver fishing line condensed supreme Laws, something they could not possibly touch. The two swiftly dodged, and wherever the fishing line passed, space was cut open, and Dao rhyme permeated the air.

"It's over, are we going to be knocked down to other stars again this time?" Jun Mengqing exclaimed in surprise.

Spatial Dao converged in Gu Shengge's eyes, and runes appeared out of thin air in front of them, isolating the space they were in from the fishing line.

However, this teleportation distance was not very long, and an exit appeared ahead. In their eager gazes, white light emerged, and they were about to rush out. Just as they were about to rush out, a fishing line, flashing with cold light, landed on one of Gu Shengge's arms.

The silver fishing line instantly broke through his spiritual energy barrier, cut through the external spatial Laws, and sank into his skin.

In an instant, golden blood splattered, and the fishing line was deeply embedded in his flesh.

He swiftly activated it, and the power of lightning surged throughout his body, flinging the embedded fishing line out. At the same time, he pulled Jun Mengqing and quickly disappeared into the white light.

Not long after, they appeared on a desolate star.

This was a Major Thousand Worlds-level star in the Zhongtian Star Domain, orbiting the Zhongtian Region at the center. The Laws of heaven and earth were complete, and the Spiritual Qi was incredibly rich.

It was precisely because of this that it seemed strange; in such a vast world, they could not perceive the slightest trace of life fluctuations.

The two traveled across the desolate star, searching everywhere, trying to find any overlooked energy fluctuations.

They walked and stopped, searching everywhere, and in the central region of the star, they finally found a Cultivator ruin, with a giant stone monument standing there.

The stone monument was enormous, tens of thousands of feet long, soaring into the clouds.

Gu Shengge and Jun Mengqing kept some distance, then fully read the large characters on it: "In the autumn of the ninth month of the 503,000th year of the Cangmang Calendar, the myriad Dao Law corpses were suppressed here."

Besides these large characters, there were also many dense smaller characters, but after more than 400,000 years of erosion by wind and frost, those characters had become blurred and indistinct.

Gu Shengge activated his heavy pupils but couldn't restore them, feeling a bit annoyed.

Jun Mengqing beside him asked in surprise: "Suppressing myriad Dao Law corpses, will there be a supreme treasure here that can deal with Law corpses?"

The golden divine light in Gu Shengge's heavy pupils was dazzling. He also wanted to know if there was a supreme treasure here to deal with Law corpses.

As long as the Law corpse calamity in the Qiongsang Domain was not eradicated, he would always feel uneasy.

To be frank, the Qiankun Taoist Sect still lacked the strength to dominate the Qiongsang Domain. The current Law corpses were the biggest hidden danger; if they were not careful, the Qiankun Taoist Sect might be completely wiped out.

The two landed again but still couldn't see any supreme treasure suppressing the Law corpses.

However, in the lowest area, there were still some runes that had not been completely eroded away.

With this clue, Gu Shengge directly used the jade disc of creation for deduction.

On the jade disc of creation, Dao energy surged, and myriad Dao resonated. As he deduced, waves of energy rippled around them, Chaos Qi surged, and various phenomena appeared.

Jun Mengqing beside him was bewildered and could only move closer to Gu Shengge, seeking shelter by his side.

Gu Shengge was currently unable to pay attention to her. Runes gradually appeared on the jade disc of creation and merged into his Sea of Consciousness. This was a divine lightning art of the lightning Dao, named the Twenty-Four Qi Chaos Lightning, a divine lightning specifically used to target Law corpses, with infinite power and a strong suppressive force against Law corpses!
