Perfect World: Start by traveling to the Wuwang Mansion

Chapter 243 Stars
While Shi Qingyun was still undergoing the final test, the outside world was already in an uproar.

Just as everyone was still climbing the ladder, they saw several divine lights flashing out from the vortex passage, and then they saw Di Chong and others appear in the void.

When everyone saw that those who had entered the secret realm earlier were being sent out, they all looked at them with disbelief.

"That must be Mu Yan, the Qilin son of the Mu family from Leiyan City, right? He was also sent out?"

"What happened? Why did only so few people come back?"

"Where's my young lady? Why hasn't she come back? What happened?"

"It seems that the fight for inheritance has failed. I didn't expect that the young master of the Immortal Palace also failed. It's unbelievable."

Di Chong looked at the discussions among the people below, his expression suddenly darkened, and murderous intent surged in his eyes.

How could he be willing to accept that the thing he thought was in his pocket was snatched away by someone else right before his eyes?

Especially when those people were discussing, the murderous intent in their hearts could not be stopped from rising.

An extremely domineering aura emanated from him, the sky suddenly changed color, and a terrifying aura instantly spread throughout the entire venue.

The many cultivators who were talking with great delight just now felt a pair of murderous gazes falling on them, and they fell silent all of a sudden.

However, some more powerful cultivators were watching Di Chong, who was on the verge of a rage, with great interest, seeing this genius who had dominated three thousand states suffer a setback.

An inexplicable feeling of pleasure flashed through my heart.

As for the others, looking at the murderous intent gathering in the void but the young man with a calm face, they all felt that this was the calm before the storm.

Just as the whole audience was silent, a ghostly figure appeared behind Di Chong and bowed to him.

"Catch him as soon as he comes out."

"Oh, the inheritance will be kept with you for now."

Di Chong's tone was indifferent, but the arrogance in his tone was not concealed at all, and there was a strong murderous intent in his eyes.

In the next moment, the ladder slowly collapsed and turned into golden light and disappeared into the void.

Many monks who were still climbing on it fell down, their eyes full of confusion.

"What's going on? I'm only one step away from reaching the next step."

"Is it over? Why is it so sudden?"

Just when many monks on the ladder were confused, when they saw Di Chong and others in the void, everything became clear to them.

Then, a sound like a bell rang in everyone's ears:

"The trial is over."

After hearing this, a gleam of light flashed in everyone's eyes. The trial had clearly ended, but no one left.

Instead, more and more cultivators gathered there, including some protectors at the level of Heavenly Gods, who stared intently at the vortex that was gradually closing in the sky.

Some monks with lower strength felt the oppressive atmosphere in the void and rushed away.

And in the secret place
Shi Qingyun slowly opened his eyes, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he found that he had arrived in a sea of stars without knowing when.

All around him were bright stars twinkling with starlight, flickering constantly in the endless darkness, resonating with the Tao.

He looked at the endless dark abyss beneath his feet, which was so deep that it made him feel a little scared, as if a pair of eyes were watching him.

The next moment after he woke up, the entire starry sky began to twinkle, with starlight flashing in all directions.

It was as if the whole world had come alive, and strange sounds came from the deep starry sky.

Soon he saw that several of the brightest stars were connected to each other, forming the shape of a spear.

The spear was branded with star patterns, emitting wisps of starlight, and there seemed to be an inexplicable frost covering the tip of the spear. Even though it was far away in the sky, Shi Qingyun could still feel a sense of sharpness.

The spear was shrinking continuously, and the next moment it turned into a pitch-black spear that shot towards him, shattering all the stars wherever it passed.

Feeling the oncoming cutting sensation, Shi Qingyun's body surface quickly surged with golden light, and a stream of golden liquid surged over his entire body.

He was cast into a golden god, but even so, when the spear reached him, his golden body was instantly broken.

The spear went straight to his eyebrows like lightning and just stayed there. If it took another step forward it would surely pierce him straight through.

Beads of sweat were already dripping down Shi Qingyun's forehead. He swallowed as he looked at the spear in front of him.

The next moment, the spear moved forward slightly, and a blood bead filled with divine light floated out from his forehead and landed on the spear.

When the drop of blood fell onto the spear, the originally dull spear body became bright again.

Strands of blood brushed across the gun body, and the originally pitch-black gun body suddenly emitted starlight, and its color also changed into the appearance of a deep starry sky.

It can be seen that there are spots of light flashing on the black gun body, as if there are stars flashing in it, emitting bright light.

There are magical runes imprinted on the tip of the spear, and these runes are so natural that they seem as if they were derived from it itself.

Just as Shi Qingyun was still looking at it with some fascination, he saw the spear floating to his side, and the bright light on it instantly shrank.

"You are the master's successor? That doesn't sound very good."

"He is only at the Venerable level, his strength is too weak."

Just as Shi Qingyun was about to move forward and touch it, he heard a crisp sound coming from the spear, which immediately froze his hand in mid-air.

"Item spirit?"

Shi Qingyun asked with a bit of doubt, but what he got in return was a sneer.

"You are ignorant. Why haven't you seen a weapon spirit?"

"From now on you will be my new master, be excited, tremble."

He looked at the spear that was shaking continuously in the void in silence, with a few black lines appearing on his forehead. He didn't expect that the spirit of the weapon had such a bad personality.

"Okay, are you the senior's successor?"

After he finished speaking, the spear stopped shaking and came in front of him with a little halo of light on it.

"Of course not. The master's inheritance is all in my brain. Although I don't have a brain, this is what I mean."

"My master has ordered me to protect the inheritor. Although I can't take action often, I won't die as long as I'm here."

"That's what the master said."

Just when Shi Qingyun wanted to ask something, he saw a ball of light suddenly shot out from the spear and directly entered his mind.

After digesting it for a while, Shi Qingyun understood the whole story, and a sense of admiration arose in his heart.

The spear was named Fanxing, and was made of some precious immortal gold and iron plus a sea of stars. It was extremely powerful and was a veritable divine weapon. The owner of Fanxing was a quasi-king in the ancient immortal period named Jingmu, who was considered one of the most evil people of that period and shone brightly in that era.

Like Thunder Emperor, he is the youngest genius with the greatest hope of breaking through to the realm of Immortal King. Unfortunately, he was besieged by many people in a great battle with an alien.

In the end, Daoxiao died, allowing Fanxing to return to the nine heavens and ten earths with a part of his body.

This secret realm was formed from his remains, and the road of trials was to select the inheritors who would one day help him fulfill his last wish of conquering foreign lands.

"Until you reach the level of a king, I will be your protector."

"But I can only attack a limited number of times. Don't think of relying on me to do whatever you want."

Shi Qingyun nodded after hearing Fanxing's words, and now with Fanxing's help, his worries were relieved a little.

Coming to this upper realm, what he feared most was never the fights among people of the same realm, but the worry that some old monsters would be unkind and attack him directly.

At that time, no matter how talented he is, he can only sit and wait for death.

"Now I have a guarantee."

His eyes became somewhat profound, and he couldn't help but mutter.

"I cannot wake up often. I will soon fall into a deep sleep. When you are in danger, I will take action."

"As for the inheritance of Taoism, I see that you have already embarked on your own path."

"So I will only teach you the art of defending against the enemy."

Then another point of light fell directly into his mind, and then the stars turned into a ray of starlight and entered his body.

It turned into a small gun-shaped mark that was imprinted between his brows.

Shi Qingyun felt the terrifying power coming from the spear, and without any hesitation, he sat down on the ground.

At this moment, I didn't know how dangerous it was outside. The more strength I had, the more protection I would have. So I began to comprehend the Immortal King Art of Jingmu Immortal King.

"Star Picker, this name is really domineering."

His mind sank into his body, and the mysterious and righteous methods of the Star-Picking Hand flashed through his mind one by one. He couldn't help but praise the power of this method in his heart.

As the name suggests, the Star-Picking Hand has the power to pluck stars and shake the sky. With one palm, the whole world is at your fingertips.

"Fortunately, I have learned the Void Beast Treasure Technique before, otherwise it would be quite difficult to comprehend the Star-Picking Hand."

His mind raced, and he fell into deep meditation. A glow of light flashed above his body, exuding a sense of immortality.

As he meditated and practiced Taoism, he saw the whole world flashing, and wisps of twinkling light flew towards him from the endless starry sky.

Those streams of light intertwined with each other, forming star rings that tightly surrounded him, and the halos that emanated from them resonated with him.

The entire starry sky seemed to have transformed into extremely complex runes, all emitting endless divine light, bathing his body.

While Shi Qingyun was still practicing in seclusion, the outside world was already crowded with people, and what was happening here had already attracted some people's attention.

In just a few days, some forces around Zhaixing City have sent many monks here to investigate.

Even at the beginning, some sect leaders came to investigate, but they did not notice anything unusual until the vortex disappeared.

Therefore, those people left after waiting for a few minutes, thinking that Shi Qingyun did not get the inheritance at all but died on the road of trial.

The Star-Picking City gradually became stable, but apart from some hidden players who stayed behind, there were still some people who were waiting patiently.

Di Chong sat cross-legged in an antique room with his eyes closed, and rays of divine light were surging around him.

A long spear was placed horizontally in front of him, emitting a cold light, and the void was trembling slightly.

"Young Master, the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm will be opened. This will be the last time the Immortal Ancient Dao Flower blooms. We should make plans early."

The guardian from the Heavenly God Realm bowed to Di Chong and spoke respectfully.

"Keep waiting! It will take some time for the Ancient Immortal Secret Realm to open, so there's no rush."

"We'll wait for a while longer. If they don't come out, we'll set off for the Five Elements State."

"I heard that the Tianyuan Secret Realm there will be opened in the near future."

The protector wanted to say something else, but finally held back. In his heart, Shi Qingyun had already died there.

He would never come out, so waiting here would be a waste of time. However, he did not dare to go against Di Chong's will.

Time passed so quickly, and the news about the Star Picking City was drowned out by other more explosive news, and not many people paid attention to the Star Picking Trial.

In the secret space, Shi Qingyun's cultivation was also coming to an end.

Within circles of brilliant stars, a person in red was fluttering in the air, and the sense of freedom emanating from her body was sweeping through the void.

A pair of bright eyes suddenly opened, and star-like light could be seen flickering in them, with the Tai Chi Taoist seal flowing on them.

Looking through the endless darkness, I saw a broken arm stretching across the sky, holding up a small world in its palm. From the darkness, wisps of the power of laws were surging into it.

Under this arm, there was a huge skeleton with a blurred face lying there.

"This is the thorn tree."

"Buried in the void, even though the stars are changing and moving, even in life and death, they are still protecting this world."

Shi Qingyun had very complicated feelings in his heart and admired his spirit very much.

He suppressed the throbbing in his heart and slowly stood up. Behind him, there was also a huge god with stars all around him and golden light all over his body. He also slowly stood up like him.

"Boom boom boom"

The whole world was shaking under his feet. He looked around at the stars that were becoming dim, and raised his jade-like right hand.

"Reach for the stars!"

There was an extremely mysterious aura of Tao lingering on it. He grasped it in front of him, and the void was suddenly torn apart. From the depths, a giant glazed hand that covered the sky slowly stretched out.

The giant hand penetrated through layers of the universe, ignoring the limitations of time and space and falling directly wherever it could be seen.

Then he saw a star emitting bright light that was originally at an unknown distance away, and it was directly pinched between his fingertips.

"Boom"

As Shi Qingyun exerted force, he heard a shocking sound coming quickly from a distance, and the star in the distance completely exploded.

"This Star-Picking Hand is truly terrifying. Even with the blessing of the power of heaven and earth here, it is still terrifying."

"If I become stronger in the future, I may be able to cover the sky with one hand and embezzle the universe."
