811 Woman Named Wuchen (1/2)
The three humans and one lantern walked back to the building of the ancient battleship, and suddenly, a light twinkled. It wasn't known where that light had come from, but the entire ship was bathed in intense light which caused Qin Mu, Village Chief, and the rest to be unable to see anything.
The light appeared quickly and disappeared quickly. When the light vanished, Qin Mu examined the surroundings, and he was slightly stunned. This ship was originally sailing under the Celestial River, but now it was sailing on the surface.
Fog was around them, and gradually, there was bright and beautiful sunlight shining down. The ship had sailed out of the fog.
The bright sun hung high up in the sky.
Qin Mu looked outside. He saw the ship floating on the river surface, and the Celestial River was currently floating in the sky.
”Lin Xiao, what happened?” Qin Mu asked the one-inch man in the lantern.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
In that lantern, the wings behind the tiny bird-headed human flapped, and he said, ”Commander, there's no need to panic, this is merely a reset of space and time.”
”Reset of space and time?”
Village Chief asked carefully, ”What is the meaning of that?”
The one-inch human in the lantern said, ”The divine art in the fog is incoherent. This kind of peculiar divine art would burst forth after a certain period of time and bring us to a fixed year. I calculated it before, and this ship would be brought to thirty-six different years. The current year should be...”
The lantern shone outwards and revealed billowing smokes, as well as fires of war.
”It's the Light Emperor Era now, as for which year it is, I'm not clear.”
The tiny human in the lantern said, ”The son of Light Emperor from the Light Emperor Celestial Heavens, Emperor Son Chi Xiao, is about to board this ship.”
Just as his voice landed, a young general that was currently fighting flew over. He raised his hand from far away, and a mirror in his hands shone down on this ship.
That young general arrived along with that light, and he looked awe-inspiring with his three heads and six arms.
”Emperor Son Chi Xiao?”
Qin Mu shuddered and said softly, ”Wasn't Emperor Son Chi Xiao one of the faces from the black coffin which Ancestral Dragon King shattered when we first boarded the ship? That face claimed to be Crown Prince Chi Xiao of Light Emperor...”
Village Chief's face changed slightly, and he muttered, ”It can't be him, he was clearly swallowed up by the coffin and died from loss of blood. The one that just boarded can't be Crown Prince Chi Xiao, it must be a person with a similar name...”
”This is... the Celestial River Ghost Ship!”
The voice of that young general rang out in delight and surprise. ”This treasure would actually appear at this moment. Could the heavens be helping me? I've heard that this ship carries the strongest gods of the ancient celestial heavens. If they can be used by me...”
He waved his flag, and numerous three-headed and six-armed gods flew over to land on the ship.
That young general cried out, ”Search this ship! Find out where the Feathered Forest Guards of the ancient times are!”
”Your Highness, there are seals on this ship!”
”Open them!”
...
After a moment, black coffins grew out from the deck, and black gas spread out. Waves of flustered cries came from the gods of the young general.
When the black gas finally dispersed, numerous gods of the Crimson Light Era and that young general had vanished. Only the black coffins remained on the deck.
The black coffins slowly sank down and vanished.
”When they reappear once again, Crown Prince Chi Xiao will die because of the black coffin being shattered.”
The one-inch human flapped his wings in the lantern and said, ”Commander, let us go see Celestial Empress' coffin. Follow me.”
Qin Mu and Village Chief looked each other in the eyes, and both of them were slightly muddled. Village Chief suddenly said, ”General Lin Xiao, when you met Qin Mu for the first time, you said Commander has become younger again. What is the meaning of that? Have you seen him in the past? Was his age much older than he is now?”
Qin Mu felt a chill down his spine, and he hurriedly looked at the tiny human in the lantern.
The tiny human in the lantern remained silent.
The wrinkles on Village Chief's face distorted, and his voice was slightly trembling. ”Which also means this isn't the first time we have boarded this ship! We have already boarded this ship many times and even stayed for a very long time on this ship! Am I right?”
The tiny human sat on the door sill of the lantern and flapped his wings. The lantern floated forward, and he said, ”On this ship, every time is the first time. Over here please.”
Dragon Rearing Sovereign collapsed onto the ground and wailed, ”We are done for, it's over! My Lord, we are finished...”
Qin Mu's expression was grim. He grabbed his dragon horn and dragged him forward.
They walked around a pavilion and saw that the old dragon that had fused with the building in front of the pavilion had already turned into stone. On the face of the stone dragon was a look of terror.
Qin Mu raised his head and examined this stone dragon. He said with a smile, ”Could this crazy old dragon be Dragon Rearing Sovereign?”
Dragon Rearing Sovereign shuddered, and his body became even limper.
”Mu'er, don't scare him!”
Village Chief had a solemn expression, and he said seriously, ”I've encountered more than my fair share of strange occurrences and have been through countless trials, I won't be trapped by this ship! Don't worry, I can definitely bring you guys out, let's go!”
Behind the building was a hall, and the lantern brought them through the long winding corridor of the palaces. They passed by fake mountains and discussion halls and came to another hall behind the hall.
The first thing that entered their line of sight was eight huge and red dragons. The bodies of these huge dragons hung on a horizontal beam above this wide hall, and their bodies were half-stretched down from above. Their bodies then coiled around bronze pillars as they stretched their claws forward to touch the ground. Their necks were raised high, but their heads were lowered forward at a floating coffin.
Eight huge dragons were precisely in all eight directions of this coffin and seemed to be protecting this coffin.
However, the bodies of these eight dragons had already been turned into stone. It was as if they were being carved from sparkling and translucent rubies, which looked extremely gorgeous.
Ancestral Dragon King and the rest had already reached here, and they walked passed the eight dragons to come to the side of the coffin. Ancestral Dragon King's divine might burst forth as he tried to open the floating coffin.
However, the floating coffin was extremely heavy, and it was covered with a huge number of seals. Even a great god on the Numinous Sky Realm like him wasn't able to open it.
”The Feathered Forest Guards are one of the two guards among the Ten Guards of Celestial Heavens. The Left and Right Feathered Forest, the Left and Right Dragon Martial, the Left and Right Divine Martial, the Left and Right Divine Stratagem, and the Left and Right Divine Awe. Among them, the Feathered Forest Guards were personally controlled by Celestial Emperor. What is the Feathered Forest? The feathered wings of the empire, as flourishing as a forest. That is the Feathered Forest.”
Prince Qiu Ming said, ”Since the Feathered Forest Guards are the army of Celestial Emperor, the ones chosen are naturally the strongest existences in the world. Demon dragon, how could the seals placed by them be opened up by someone like you?”
Ancestral Dragon's face flushed and he sneered, saying, ”Even if I can't open it, can you?”
Prince Qiu Ming's clothes fluttered in the wind as he took a wide stride forward. He said with a smile, ”The Feathered Forest Guards are the army of my celestial heavens, from generation to generation. I've also entered the Feathered Forest Guards to seek knowledge, so even though my cultivation is inferior to yours, opening up the seals of the Dragon Han Era isn't difficult for me.”
