Chapter 1277: The Seventh Star! (1/2)

In the Realm of Fragmentary Star.

Thick spiritual Qi of heaven and earth surrounded a bright star like mist. Dozens of ancient secret formations, which were thousands of kilometers long, were like long dragons or crystal chains, swimming in the stars along the realm barrier.

All sorts of ancient secret formations enveloped the whole star. It was difficult to enter unless you used space teleportation formations.

Starships representing the Shadow Society and the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect dashed through the cold sky, heading for the Realm of Fragmentary Star.

“The Realm of Fragmentary Star has already been shut down.”

You Qimiao of the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect stood in the front of a starship and looked at the Realm of Fragmentary Star with a grim face. “It is the Realm of Fragmentary Star after all. Even the outer barrier of the star is hard to break through.”

He looked at Shangguan Zhi, the vice sectmaster of the Shadow Society, and said, “Vice Sectmaster, when will he get here?”

Shangguan Zhi had a beautiful face and feminine aura. At first glance, he seemed like a woman. If it weren’t for his Adam’s apple and slender eyes, which were like sharp knives, he would be easily mistaken for a woman.

“He’ll come through the teleportation portal on our starship,” Shangguan Zhi answered in a cold tone. “Since he isn't hurrying here, he must be preparing something.”

“Something that can break the ancient secret formations in the realm barrier of the Realm of Fragmentary Star?” You Qimiao looked shocked.

Shangguan Zhi nodded and said nothing more.

There was even a hint of hidden disdain around his mouth. After knowing that the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect had entered the Domain of Heaven Python, he had thought that the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect would be able to easily take it over.

After the Shadow Society learned through its own channels that when Duan Hongwen was badly hurt, and You Qimiao had many misgivings and thus left with him, Shangguan Zhi looked down on the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect.

“Vice Sectmaster!”

An elder of the Shadow Society dressed in white suddenly appeared like a ghost, knelt down, and handed over a message stone.

Shangguan Zhi took it and scanned it with his divine sense before his feminine face became covered with frost. “Song Chequan’s woman was really worthless.”

You Qimiao was curious. “What happened?”

He was well-aware of how well-informed the Shadow Society was, and how many spies it had in all the advanced domains.

They might even learn about certain things much more quickly than the four ancient sects.

Shangguan Zhi cast a sidelong glance at You Qimiao and said in an indifferent manner, “Feng Jieling of the Domain of Dark Marsh mobilized a number of starships and took the twenty-four Heaven-sweeping Jade Sea Cannons from the Jade Heaven Sect, but she actually failed to kill the seventh Son of the Stars. Feng Jieling died on the spot, and all the Qi warriors of the Domain of Dark Marsh were killed by Nie Tian.”

“The most difficult thing to accept is that even the twenty-four Heaven-sweeping Jade Sea Cannons of the Jade Heaven Sect have been destroyed.”

You Qimiao suddenly turned pale.

...

In Fragmentary Star City.

SWOOSH!

In a space teleportation formation, Dou Tianchen, covered in blood, showed up with a number of subordinates.

When the space teleportation formation became stable, three Saint domain experts spat blood from the corners of their mouths.

“What’s the matter? What happened?” Tao Jin, who was an elder, asked in astonishment.

Dou Tianchen’s face was full of grief. “The Qi warriors of the Domain of Nine Twists joined hands to hunt us down. Luckily, we survived, and left the Domain of Nine Twists with difficulty. Two Saint domain experts and fifteen Void domain experts under my command were killed, and nearly a hundred experts at the Profound realm and Soul realm were either killed or wounded. The last starship was also ignited by me when the teleportation formation was activated.”

“That horrible?” Tao Jin was shocked.

With soaring killing intent, Dou Tianchen said, “I want to meet Elder Wei Lai at once! I need the strength of the sect, I want to kill them to get revenge for my dead subordinates!”

Tao Jin bowed his head and said in a low voice, “I’m afraid that for the time being, that’s impossible...”

“Why!?” Dou Tianchen shouted.

“The situation in the other domains may be even worse,” Tao jin replied with a wry smile. “The whereabouts of Luo Wanxiang, the vice sectmaster, are unknown. Chu Rui, the vice sectmaster, went to rescue Wang Meijia, but hasn’t returned. Many of the elders of the sect are under siege. They may not have been as successful at escaping as you. And outside, the starships of the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect and the Shadow Society are on their way.

“Elders Zu Guangyao, Xin Qing, and Han Wanrong were ambushed and captured by the Jade Heaven Sect on their return from the Domain of Frigid Depths.”

Tao Jin lowered his head, and told him about recent events in full detail.

While he listened, Dou Tianchen’s face became paler and paler as his heart gradually sank to the bottom.

After a long time, with somewhat extravagant hopes, he inquired, “Is there no good news? No word from Elder Mo Heng or the sectmaster?”
