Chapter 278 - Human Head Lantern (1/2)

"I said that it is not so dangerous but I didn't say that it's safe, did I?"

Ao Shanshan replied unconfidently, and she quickly changed the topic by saying, "Did you guys see what killed him?"

Qiu Jin'er and Zhu Jushan shook their heads as they couldn't see anything because everything happened too fast. Zhong Yue took a moment to think before saying, "It seems like that Qi Practitioner found something amazing and he died right after that. All I could see was a shining arc, but I couldn't see what was that at all. By the way, did you guys realize something strange when the Qi Practitioner died?"

"Something strange?"

Zhong Yue replied, "If he really died, his Yuan Shen Secret Realms should have crumbled, and every single thing in his secret realms should have dropped out. But that didn't seem to happen at all."

Zhu Jushan eyes blinked, and he asked, "What is senior martial brother Zhong trying to say?"

Zhong Yue then said, "I've killed countless Qi Practitioners in the Lesser Void City, and they are all the same as the Qi Practitioner just now. None of their Yuan Shen Secret Realms crumbled, which is why I suspect that this area here is still in the coverage of the Lang Ya Board, thus, that guy back there did not die, and the Lang Ya Board revived him afterward."

Ao Shanshan, Zhu Jushan, and Qiu Jin'er nodded as they agreed with Zhong Yue's hypothesis; the Qi Practitioner's Yuan Shen Secret Realm did not crumble, or the soul weapons and the other items he possessed would have dropped out from the secret realm.

"If that's so, then it would be much safer. Shall we go and take a look at this amazing thing he found?" said an excited Zhu Jushan.

Zhong Yue nodded, and Qiu Jin'er controlled the green leaf towards that direction where the Qi Practitioner "died" just now.

Suddenly, waves of divine aura surged towards them, and when Zhong Yue raised his head, he saw a huge altar flying over them with a thousand-feet tall celestial being standing at its center. A loud chanting sound surrounded the celestial being.

That altar carried the celestial being towards the crack at the Lesser Void World, and the Martial Divine Master reached his hands up into the air. He held open the rift to the other dimension to prevent it from closing.

Then, he let out a guttural shout shouted and opened the crack even wider!

At the same time, the loud percussion of a huge drum could be heard but a person playing it was nowhere to be seen. It then flew towards the crack and created rhythms that morphed into totem carvings, each about the length of a thousand feet that flew towards the crack, widening it even further!

Hu——

From afar flew another huge flag that waved vigorously against the strong air current and it waved. It created totem carvings like Jiao Dragons that started flying towards every direction. All of these measures were taken to prevent the crack from closing.

Other than that, there were even more unique items like jade seals, statues, chariots, pillars, orbs and even clothes that flew towards the crack to serve the same purpose!

Zhong Yue, along with the others and the Qi Practitioners from each level and faction, were stunned by this scene as in just an instant, over ten soul weapons flew into the crack of the dimension. These further prevented the rift from closing!

These divine weapons were all the godly weapons of the Zhong Li Celestial Race. Not only did they have Martial Masters that had abandoned the cultivation of Qi and soul weapons to perfect their mortal physiques instead, but they also had Qi Practitioners among their ranks as well. In its storied history, there were also Zhong Li Celestial Race's members that had ascended into godly beings and left behind such divine weapons.

However, some of these godly weapons were not even seen before by the people of Zhong Li Celestial Race. These godly weapons most likely did not belong to the members of Zhong Li Celestial Race that ascended into gods, but to the ancestor of Zhong Li Celestial Race – Lord Xia!

These items were not kept in the Zhong Li Celestial Race, but they were all hidden in this Lesser Void World, waiting to unleash their power on the day when the dimensional crack appeared, expanding and preventing the crack from closing!

Lord Xia had made these arrangements all in preparation for this very day!

Ao Shanshan was amazed by this scene, and she murmured, "The older generations did not say that there will be so many godly weapons that appear at this time…."

"I think that it is already good enough that the other races could obtain that much information on the territory of the Zhong Li Celestial Race."

Zhong Yue took a careful look at these godly weapons. Suddenly, a pale green light appeared as an incredible huge green curtain floated in the sky before it stopped and expanded the crack.

Zhong Yue lost his voice for a moment before he said, "This Lord Xia even used the Lang Ya Board to stop the crack from closing!"

With that, the dimension crack completely stopped shrinking as it was blocked by the gigantic Lang Ya Board and the scene was just way too marvelous and jaw-dropping.

Then, one after another Qi Practitioners carrying strong aura with them from the Zhong Li Celestial Race swarmed towards the Lang Ya Board and entered the place where the Heavenly Monarch lived!

Obviously, the Zhong Li Celestial Race had prepared themselves for the emergence of the Heavenly Monarch's abode, and so they mobilized an expedition team they had on standby to search for the treasures at the first available opportunity!

This was an incredibly large movement that was far beyond the other Qi Practitioners from other races. They couldn't even compete with the Zhong Li Celestial Race in terms of quantity and quality as this was after all the territory of the Zhong Li Celestial Race. There might be many strong Qi Practitioners that entered the Lesser Void World, but they were just the minority. How could they possibly compete against the Zhong Li Celestial Race?

"And the most crucial part is that with the Lang Ya Board appearing over here, the Zhong Li Celestial Race would be able to explore around without worrying death at all!"

Zhong Yue murmured, "Lord Xia, you are indeed incredible!"

The people leading the expedition team were a few Martial Heavenly Masters and the magnate Qi Practitioners from the Zhong Li Celestial Race and under them were Heavenly Dharma, True Spirit level Qi Practitioners and Martial Masters. From the number of people they sent into the dimension, it was more like an army instead of an expedition team!
