603 Five Ranks of Immortals (1/2)
”Those guys are truly ruthless!” Five days later, on an extremely secluded and bleak planet in the Infinite Star Sea, Zhou Bao was watching a bunch of thinly scattered and crestfallen-faced people nearby while wearing a wry smile. The number of elite disciples, experts, and Individual Immortals who entered the Infinite Star Sea for the first time had been reduced to less than a half. But to top it all off, even one of the Lords of Heavens and Venerables who entered the Infinite Star Sea for the second time was lost, and two were badly injured. This time, the Heaven Realm's trip to the Infinite Star Sea could be said to be a total failure and disgrace.
”All right, all those who we rescued are here. Now we may turn on the Transmitting Formation!” Glancing at those people, Yu Taixuan did not look very pleased. But since this matter had gone so far, the five biggest sects would have no choice but to take responsibility for it. He marched in front of the huge Transmitting Formation accompanied by Hong Taihe and Hierarch Huan Ri, and all of them put their own Spiritual Stones into the magic formation. As jets of shining rays rose up, the Transmitting Formation was finally activated.
Everyone looked at each other in silence and quietly walked into the Transmitting Formation. Jets of light flashed, and eventually, they all disappeared from this obsolete planet.
Shortly after the last person was transmitted back to the Three Western Regions, the Transmitting Formation started to emit a faint and flickering halo, and then it imploded, disappearing into nowhere. At that point, the two Transmitting Formations connecting the Seven-deity Regions with the Infinite Star Sea had both vanished.
Just a few seconds after the Transmitting Formation imploded, a figure suddenly appeared on this planet.
”Humph, so thoughtful to simply destroy the Transmitting Formation on the other end! However, you guys still did not strike hard enough to destroy this planet with it. If you did so, maybe I really couldn't have discovered the track of the Heaven Realm. But now, hehe, you have no way to cover up your whereabouts!” A clear and melodious voice sounded from the Transmitting Formation's ruins, and the figure had turned from a fuzzy shadow into an incredibly beautiful girl around 18 years old. This girl looked stunningly gorgeous. She was wearing a light yellow colored, flimsy garment, and chains with golden bells spanned between her left hand's wrist and her five fingers. The bells jingled in the gentle wind, sending forth fits of pleasant sounds.
”I didn't want to go through all these troubles at first. But there is no other way. The thing I want only exists in the Heaven Realm. Thus, I have to tug you out from the depths of the hollow!” That girl murmured to herself. She gently waved her hand with the golden bells and melodious jingles turned into waves of luxurious rays, which softly swept across the Transmitting Formation. Soon enough, a three-dimensional Void Map appeared in front of that girl. It was an extremely complex Void Map which was constantly changing, galaxy after galaxy, star cloud after star cloud. And finally, after a long period of time, the map went to a halt, showing the outside of a blue macro world.
The land of this blue macro world was peerlessly vast. Surrounding it were the year-round space storms, the universe magnetic storms, and the hollow thunderbolts. Those violent spirits almost blocked up all the direct communicating channels between this macro world and the outside. Additionally, outside this blue macro world, you could have a vague view of the infinite space changes. In every moment, time and space were undergoing various changes and producing diverse twists. That girl seemed to have foreseen that once she stepped into the surrounding space of that blue macro world, she would get lost in the endless space-time maze. This space-time maze was much more formidable than that in the Pond of Illusive Ripples. If you were caught up in it, you might never get out, or worse, you could even be engulfed or killed by those monsters derived from the space-time in no time, and your body and spirit would both vanish.
”Heaven Realm, it surely is the Heaven Realm, the legendary Heaven Realm! Wow, what on earth is this place?! In which Star Area is it located?!” All of a sudden, the girl swayed her body before the Void Map and it actually started to vaporize like steaming water.
”Interesting. To dare to play such a trick in front of me!” A chilling light flitted through the eyes of the girl and the golden bells in her hand abruptly started ringing.
Jingle, jingle, jingle, jingle...
Sweet jingles rang out. Fits of bell ringings transformed into physical waves and the Void Map in front of her became clear once more.
At the same time on the Taihua Mountain in the depths of the hollow, the Fate Creation Boy, who had been sitting with his legs crossed, opened his eyes, and a trace of terror flickered through his gaze.
Then, his originally glowing face, which was as healthy as a baby, suddenly went greyish and streams of blood trickled down from the corners of his eyes, ears, mouth, and nostrils.
All of a sudden, he fiercely bit on the tip of his tongue, which triggered his strong potential. With a quick wave of his hands, a faint, shapeless, thin veil enveloped the entire Heaven Realm. Meanwhile, on the nameless planet in the Infinite Star Sea, a thin veil film unexpectedly showed up in the Void Map before the girl. This time, before the girl could react, the Void Map turned fuzzy.
”Damn it!” Seeing the Void Map vanish in front of her eyes, the girl's face instantly went sullen. A trace of a chilling spirit shrouded her body.
”In fact, you don't have to be so angry. If it really were that easy to find the Heaven Realm, then it wouldn't be called Heaven Realm!” A carefree sigh sounded out beside her.
”Why did you old bastard come out of the mountain?” That girl asked without even turning her head around. Her eyes were still transfixed on the ruins of the Transmitting Formation before her.
