Chapter 1671 - Saint Monk Xumi’s Relic (1/2)

Zhang Ruochen raised his head. He looked at the saint tree covered in red flowers and found it incredible.

“How is it compared to your Way of s.p.a.ce and Time?” The Thousand Star Maiden stood under the tree with her hands behind her back. Her slender frame sketched a beautiful curve.

She was prettier than the flowers.

“Not bad,” Zhang Ruochen said.

The Thousand Star Maiden wanted to compete with him, but seeing Zhang Ruochen was so calm, she didn’t continue wasting time. Instead, she revealed her true intention. “You know what happened in the Wind Atrium of the Inner South Yard, right?”

“Yes.”

“Are you interested in going with me to the palace cl.u.s.ter and searching for extreme opportunity?” the Thousand Star Maiden asked.

“It’s too dangerous,” Zhang Ruochen rejected directly. “I won’t go.”

If a palace cl.u.s.ter suddenly appeared in the Wind Atrium and was connected with the cl.u.s.ter deep in the forbidden zone, then one should never venture there.

Even Supreme Saint monsters appeared there. These cultivators going there was no different than suicide.

The Thousand Star Maiden furrowed her slender brows. “From the information I received, Zhang Ruochen shouldn’t be a cowardly person. These rumors are false!”

“This has nothing to do with how brave I am,” Zhang Ruochen said. “I just don’t want to go die.”

“I have the Way of Origin and you have time and s.p.a.ce. If we work together, we’ll be able to come and go as we please no matter how dangerous that palace cl.u.s.ter is.”

“Come and go as we please?”

An image appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s mind. A huge divine hand hovered in that icy and pitch-black void. Its aura hung in the air like a waterfall.

It was that hand that made it impossible to use spatial transfers in the palace cl.u.s.ter. Even if he insisted on using it, it would be extremely dangerous.

Come and go as they pleased? It wasn’t that easy.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes grew determined and he waved his hand. “This isn’t up for discussion. Your Highness, please go back.”

The Thousand Star Maiden didn’t give up. “What if I know where Saint Monk Xumi died?”

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes gleamed and he asked, “Where?”

The Thousand Star Maiden smiled. “I’ll naturally tell you if you go to the Wind Atrium with me. From what I know, Saint Monk Xumi left an unprecedented inheritance where he died. For 100,000 years, the Time and s.p.a.ce G.o.dly Palaces put in so much effort and money to find that place, but they only found some traces. They can’t pinpoint the exact location.”

Zhang Ruochen gradually recovered. He wondered how truthful the Thousand Star Maiden’s words were. “Why should I believe that you know where Saint Monk Xumi died?”

The Thousand Star Maiden seemed to expect that he would ask that. “One hundred thousand years ago, Saint Monk Xumi had a deep relations.h.i.+p with a G.o.d ancestor of the Thousand Star Civilization. They exchanged a strand of hair with each other.

“When that extreme change happened to Kunlun’s Field, a divine intent came out of Saint Monk Xumi’s hair that the G.o.d ancestor had. The G.o.d knew that something happened to Saint Monk Xumi and hurried over to help, but…he was too late. The tragedy had already occurred.”

As she spoke, she took out a glittery metal box and handed it to Zhang Ruochen.

The box was square, ancient, and heavy. Starry lights kept flying out. One could see immediately that it wasn’t made out of regular metal.

Zhang Ruochen opened the box slowly. Suddenly, extremely pure Buddhist light spread out, accompanied by loud Sanskrit chanting.

If one looked through the Buddhist light, one would see a long strand of white hair in the bottom of the box.

This mere strand contained such ma.s.sive Buddhist power. It kept purifying the darkness and extreme Yin Qi of the forbidden zone and was very miraculous.

The next moment, the Time and s.p.a.ce Secret Guide on Zhang Ruochen’s body shone with faint silver light and resonated with the white hair.

Whoos.h.!.+

Strange patterns emerged on the silver paper. Each page was like a dazzling starry sky and seemed to be able to become limitless.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t notice the strangeness of the Time and s.p.a.ce Secret Guide. His attention was focused on the white hair.

“That is…”

Zhang Ruochen opened his Heavenly Eye and stared at the white whisker. He realized that it was all white inside. He couldn’t see it clearly, but it seemed to…have a vast s.p.a.ce.

Saint Monk Xumi’s cultivation couldn’t be comprehended by regular cultivators. Even if one whisker could be turned into a world, it wasn’t anything strange.

Zhang Ruochen sensed a strange aura in the hair. A voice deep down seemed to be telling him that Saint Monk Xumi left something for him in the hair.

The Thousand Star Maiden’s eyes were very bright and she found it miraculous. As expected of the Time and s.p.a.ce Descendant. Before him, the whisker has a commotion that’s never been had before. Could it be like what the ancestor said and Saint Monk Xumi left a world in the whisker?

Zhang Ruochen extended a finger to pick up the whisker and check the s.p.a.ce behind the white fog.

Snap!

The Thousand Star Maiden closed the lid and took the box back. “This is a strand of hair that Saint Monk Xumi left to my ancestor. It belongs to the Thousand Star Civilization.”
