National Star Sea Era...

Chapter 768 Mythical Creatures
Boom boom boom!
As the purple mist energy projections in the market quickly gathered, the collision sounds in the blood-red coffin became more and more rapid.

Until it exceeded a certain limit, the blood-red coffin, which was obviously made of extraordinary material, began to tremble, and the tremor continued to intensify as time went by.

Boom!

At a certain moment, the blood-colored coffin suddenly exploded, and the original whole piece of blood-colored fairy gold suddenly broke into pieces and splashed all over the mountain space.

Song Chi didn't even pay attention to the broken coffin. This thing might have great value to the former fairyland civilization, or even to many civilizations in the boundless starry sea, but to a Xinhuo captain, it was just one of many mineral materials.

After the bloody coffin exploded, his gaze remained on the figure lying flat inside it… or to be more precise, on the human figure.

He was a man whose body still looked like an ordinary human in the star sea. His eyes were closed, and he wore a white jade crown on his head. His Taoist robe was dark blue, embroidered with white cloud patterns, and golden threads flickered at the hem. Even though he was lying there quietly, he still looked solemn and majestic.

If Song Chi had not known that the fairyland civilization had been destroyed hundreds of thousands of years ago, he might have thought that the corpse had been dead for no more than a thousand years.

However, Song Chi was not confused by the clothes and demeanor of the corpse. He immediately noticed the incongruity of the corpse of the Immortal Lord of Heaven's Fate deep in the immortal tomb.

[Tianming Immortal Sect] was once a giant force in the fairyland civilization. How could an existence with [Tianming] as its code name be a person who gained the reputation in vain?

At least in Song Chi's own opinion, the former peak strength of this Immortal Lord of Destiny was at least at the Golden Immortal level, that is, the eighth-order ruler in the Broken Star Sea, and there is even a high possibility that he is a powerful being ranked at the Daluo Golden Immortal (ninth order).

However, ever since the bloody coffin exploded, he never felt any sense of oppression on the corpse.

Logically speaking, if an eighth-level or even ninth-level creature dies, as long as their bodies can be preserved, due to their extremely high life level, their corpses can be preserved intact even after tens or hundreds of millions of years.

Even if most of the energy would be lost due to various reasons, it would never be as bad as it is now.

Remember the life-chasing immortal before? He was just a true immortal who had transcended tribulation (seventh level). After hundreds of thousands of years, his corpse still retained most of its energy.

Really, if the tombstone had not clearly indicated that this was the [Immortal Tomb of Beichen Tianming Immortal Lord], he would really have doubted whether this corpse was just that of an ordinary fifth or sixth level cultivator.

……

While doubts were rising in his heart, the ethereal body's gaze kept moving around the waist of the immortal monarch's corpse, which had no energy fluctuations at all.

There, hanging an exquisite golden cloth bag.

If things go as expected, it should be the storage bag of Beichen Tianming Immortal Lord. The other part of the [Tianming Sinan] that he was looking for is in it.

As his thoughts were racing, the corpse of the Immortal Lord Tianming, which had no energy fluctuations at the moment before, suddenly sat up.

This sudden movement made Song Chi's eyes twitch violently.

However, the strange collision of the blood-colored coffin had already made him alert. In addition, the purple mist projection of the market above the mirror battleship had also completely condensed, which made Song Chi calm down quickly.

Regardless of the situation of the corpse of the Immortal Lord Tianming, a purple mist handprint emerged from the projection of the market and headed straight towards the interior of the immortal tomb below.

No matter what, there is no doubt that the feeling of uneasiness in his heart is gradually increasing. At the moment, Song Chi’s idea is very simple, to get the storage bag from the other party, and then leave the Immortal Tomb Mountain Group as soon as possible.

The purple mist handprint pressed down rapidly, and the gray mist energy in the palm was still eroding madly. Fortunately, the current market projection has the real ninth-level combat power. No matter how strange the gray mist is, or how corrosive it is, it is difficult to cause too much impact on the purple mist handprint in a short time.

Along the path of the purple mist handprint, the gray aura continued to spread to both sides. Just when the handprint reached the top of the half-sitting corpse of Tianming Immortal Lord, perhaps sensing the threat brought by the market projection, the corpse of Tianming Immortal Lord quickly reacted.

His eyes, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened. At this moment, a strong energy fluctuation suddenly emerged from his body, which had originally had no breath fluctuations.

level one

third order
fifth level
……

In just a moment, the pressure emanating from the immortal king's corpse rose directly to the terrifying ninth level.

What is certain is that in this short moment, a huge change must have occurred inside the seemingly motionless body of the Immortal Lord Tianming, but the specific reason cannot be seen from the outside.

However, what Song Chi can be sure of is that the corpse of the Immortal Lord Tianming is definitely not the Immortal Lord Tianming of Beichen who lived hundreds of thousands of years ago. It is very likely that after his death, his corpse was controlled by an unknown entity.

Perhaps it is not just the case with Beichen Tianming Immortal Lord, but all the living beings buried in the surrounding Immortal Tomb Mountain Range that stretches for hundreds of light years are likely to be in this situation.

As for Song Chi’s basis?
It was the familiar gray energy in the eyes of the corpse of Beichen Tianming Immortal Lord at this moment.

If nothing unexpected happens, this thing is the source of the gray mist that permeates the sky above the Xianzhong Mountains.

Of course, it is obviously impossible to condense a gray mist of this scale with just the corpse of Beichen Tianming Immortal Lord, so the result is obviously his previous guess.

The moment he thought of this, Song Chi felt a chill in his heart, and all the hairs on his body stood on end.

In the past few hundred years, the mirror battleships and the eighth-level void demons have encountered many remnants of the fairyland. I never paid attention to them before, but now I think that those remnants of the fairyland are more or less surrounded by this unknown gray mist energy.

All of this made him have a somewhat horrifying guess in his heart.

Perhaps the action taken by those powerful people in the Immortal Realm at the cost of their own lives to sink the Immortal Realm continent into the depths of the dark side of the virtual sea did not completely cut off the unknown invasion. Long before the Immortal Realm continent sank into the depths of the dark side of the virtual sea, some invaders had already entered the Immortal Realm continent, and then they sank into the depths of the dark side of the virtual sea along with the Immortal Realm continent.

Over hundreds of thousands of years, the group of invaders that followed in the past have completely eroded the entire Fairyland Continent ruins, but because they cannot escape from the dark storm of the virtual sea in the outside world, they have remained in the Fairyland Continent ruins.

And this group of immortal tomb mountains might be the masterpiece of those unknown invaders. As for their purpose, Song Chi is not clear and does not want to pursue it.

At this moment, Song Chi's heart had already turned cold. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that there was nothing wrong with his guess. Even the inexplicable feeling of uneasiness in his heart was right.

If this group of immortal tomb mountains is truly the work of a group of unknown invaders, then it must contain great dangers.

Just imagine, the Fairyland civilization was extremely powerful at the time, and it was the top existence among all the overlord-level civilizations. And the unknown invading forces that were able to destroy such a powerful Fairyland civilization in an extremely short period of time must have forces far more powerful than the former Fairyland civilization.

In this way, even if they left mythical means in the deepest part of the Immortal Tomb Mountain Range to suppress it, he would not have too many doubts.

Just when Song Chi was in a state of confusion, an ancient whisper came from the depths of the distant mountains.

"Yao Xiu Ling!"

The characters uttered in the mumbling sound were not from any language that Song Chi currently knew, but the penetrating power contained in these mumbling characters was terrifyingly strong.

Even with the lesson from the previous time, Song Chi did not dare to let the mirror battleship open the hatch again. But even so, there were still traces of whispering voices that passed through the energy shield and hull armor and were transmitted into the interior of the mirror battleship.

Although there is no one in the mirror battleship at the moment, the replica of the Sky Intelligent Brain is not bewitched by the whispering voice, but the key point is that this voice actually passes through the split spirit in the ethereal body and tries to influence Song Chi in the Zhutian Market through the air.

In the Zhutian Market, a cold light flashed in Song Chi’s eyes.

"Suppress me!"

As the phantom energy in his body was mobilized, the mark of the Dragon Whale Palace in the ancestral orifice between his eyebrows was activated, and soon after, an illusory projection of the Dragon Whale Palace condensed in the sky of the Zhutian Market.

Under the protection of the Dragon Whale Palace, the sense of tyranny that was vaguely emerging in his heart was quickly suppressed.

At the same time, Song Chi also conveyed the latest instructions to the mirror battleship.

Re-enactment of [Antimatter Energy Evolution Engine] · "High Overload Burst"

Remake of [Flame Roaring Engine] · "Overload"

Re-engraving [Hunyuan Copper Mother Horn] · "Hunyuan Impact"

...With multiple acceleration features activated at the same time, the mirror battleship suddenly turned into a residual image and rushed towards the corpse of the Immortal Lord of Destiny below, which seemed to have come back to life.

Along with the mirror battleship, there was also a projection of the market of the universe lingering outside the battleship. At this moment, the purple mist projection of the market condensed into an illusory purple mist dragon whale, which roared and rushed downwards.

This was nothing else but the [Dragon Whale's Raging Sea] stimulated by Song Chi himself in the Zhutian Market with the Dragon Whale Secret Technique, trying his best to maximize the ninth-level combat power projected by the market.

boom!
The Purple Mist Dragon Whale collided violently with the ninth-order protective energy emanating from the corpse of the Immortal Lord Tianming. The horrifying roar completely caused the space of the immortal tomb, which was originally only partially broken, to collapse completely.

After this attack, Song Chi was completely certain that this Immortal Lord Tianming must have been a Daluo Golden Immortal during his lifetime.

Even after hundreds of thousands of years, the ninth-order power released from his corpse is still able to compete with the projection of the Zhutian Market.

Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the mirror battleship activated two key components at the right time under Song Chi's instructions.

Re-enactment of [Mythic Pulse Energy Shield] · "Mythic Pulse Wave"

Replica of [Field Hedge Instrument] · "Hedge Field"

Under the cover of the purple mist energy, the sudden burst of two special energies made it impossible for the corpse of the Immortal Lord of Destiny below to defend itself.

The first to hit was the "Mythical Pulse Wave". After this energy wave penetrated into the body of Tianming Immortal Lord, the ninth-order energy emanating from his body suddenly fell into chaos, which directly weakened the energy field emanating from his body.

In this situation, the originally stalemate situation suddenly turned into a situation where the Purple Mist Dragon Whale had an absolute advantage, but this was not enough.

Immediately afterwards, a hedging field condensed outside the mirror battleship. The hedging field came into contact with the energy field around the body of the Immortal Lord Tianming, and the two sides immediately began to violently collide.

With these two assists, the Purple Mist Dragon Whale finally broke through the energy field below.

Seeing this, Song Chi had no time to be happy when a violent tremor suddenly came from the Xianzhong Mountains below.

There was also an earth-shaking roar.

Unlike the sound of artillery explosions, this roar was obviously heavier. The dull feeling was definitely not caused by some kind of explosion, but more like the footsteps of a giant creature.

But in this mountain range that is often counted in light years, if it was really the sound of footsteps, Song Chi could not even imagine how huge that creature was.

Not to mention a galaxy ship of millions of kilometers, even a super-dimensional mothership of hundreds of millions of kilometers would be as small as an ant in front of it.

Song Chi subconsciously looked up at the source of the roar. In the thick gray mist, a huge shadow was looming.

The volume of this shadow is truly enough to block out the sun, and its height is even higher than the surrounding mountains that are counted in light years.

Witnessing this scene, the uneasiness in Song Chi's heart reached its limit at this moment.

Before he could think about it, the gray mist above his head was suddenly torn apart, and a giant claw that was difficult to describe in words tore through the void and slapped towards him, bringing with it a long belt of space collapse.

Song Chi wanted to control the mirror battleship to dodge, but for some reason, the surrounding void seemed to be completely solidified. No matter what commands he gave, the mirror battleship could not move at all.

Even the "Starlight Flashing Escape" that had played a huge role many times in the past seemed to have completely lost its effect at this moment. Its properties of ignoring space blockades, warship confinement, magic-forbidden areas, and time stillness seemed to have become a joke in front of the space suppression of this giant claw that was several orders of magnitude higher.

At the last moment, Song Chi only had time to give one last order.

Activate [Market Projection Order]!
Fortunately, although the owner of this giant claw is extremely powerful, his status is still a little lacking in front of the [Zhu Tian Market].

Before the giant claw smashed the mirror battleship into pieces, the golden [Market Projection Order] was activated first, pulling the ethereal body into the [Market Projection Room] corresponding to the Zhutian Market in advance.

Of course, along with it, there was also the golden storage bag that Song Chi had forcibly taken into the battleship using a replica of the [Void Warehouse] when the Purple Mist Dragon Whale broke through the energy field surrounding the body of the Immortal Lord Tianming.

Boom boom boom!
The giant claws that covered the sky fell, and whether it was the projection of the market or the mirror battleship itself, whether it was the ninth or seventh level, they were all crushed in an instant.

In the Zhutian Market, Song Chi, who witnessed this scene through the market projection, held his breath. If he still had a trace of doubt before, now he was extremely sure that the creature behind this giant claw that covered the sky must be a mythical existence.

After coming to this conclusion, he was filled with fear when he thought about how he had spent so much time jumping around in the garrison area of ​​such a terrifying existence.

Even though he stayed in Zhutian Market from beginning to end, he still couldn't calm down.

This is a mythical existence. Who knows what kind of incredible means the other party possesses?

For an eternal creature of the mythological rank, it might not be possible to kill him across the market of the universe, but it is definitely possible to injure himself.

No matter what, the Zhutian Market is only at the eighth level now.

After taking a deep breath, Song Chi calmed down again, and then he returned to the Fairyland Continent.

Of course, he was not going to the Immortal Tomb Mountain Range, but to the main body of the Tianxu Cangqiong. After recalling the main body of the Tianxu Cangqiong, he immediately returned to the market, not wanting to stay in the ruins of the Immortal Continent for even a minute.

As for the eighth-level void demon, just let it return directly through the [Market Projection Order].

'Until you are sure you can deal with mythical creatures, never set foot on that fairyland again!'

Not long after returning to the market, Song Chi made a secret decision.

Even though the Tianxu Cangqiong has now been upgraded to a galaxy ship, he will never rashly go to the Fairyland Continent again.

That was the past. If he had known that there were mythical creatures in the ruins of the Fairyland Continent, he would never have touched them from beginning to end.

Mythical creatures are the ones that truly stand at the top of the food chain in the Broken Star Sea. They have eternal life, and changing the world and moving mountains and seas are just common means for them. It is said that sometimes mythical creatures can travel freely through the long river of time, and time is just a plaything in their hands.

Once this invisible, unspeakable, and unthinkable existence comes into one's attention, life and death are no longer in one's own hands.

Faced with such an existence, Song Chi would have been too ignorant to keep his distance from it, so how could he be so ignorant as to bump into it?
Fortunately, it is not too late now. At least he has never appeared in front of the other party. With the blessing of the status of the Market of All Heavens, even if it is a mythical creature, it is difficult to lock on to his existence without any support.

Thinking of this, its mind changed again.

The ruins of the Fairyland Continent and the Fairy Tomb Mountain Range.

In the deep area of ​​the mountains, looking down from the depths of the sky, you can clearly see the obvious traces of giant handprints in the mountains.

But at this moment, the mirror battleship that had already turned into fragments reappeared.

[Time Chessboard] The "Nine Lives Chess of Life and Death" feature that has not yet been exhausted allows the mirror battleship to be reborn in full condition again.

This change once again attracted the attention of the giant figure deep in the mountains, but this time before it could make another move, the mirror battleship disappeared into the mountains on its own.

It was not a flash escape, but Song Chi in the Zhutian Market took the initiative to cancel the effect of the mirror battleship.

In fact, if one reacts quickly enough, while the existence behind the mysterious giant claw has withdrawn its sight, by using the speed characteristics of the [Posuo Zen Seal] in combination with the [Space Jumper] or [Red Sky Jump Device], there is a certain chance of escaping from the Immortal Tomb Mountains.

However, Song Chi rejected the plan without any hesitation.

His idea was simple. Even if it really jumped away, who could be sure that the mythical creature didn't deliberately let the mirror battleship leave in order to wait for him, the real owner, to come and recall it?
The safest way is to cut off all chances of being targeted by the other party.

Even though he had cancelled the mirror battleship this time and would not be able to replicate the colorful [Chessboard of Time] when he summoned it again, he did not regret it.
