Chương 272: Heavenly Secrets Revealed

The vast starry sky is magnificent and colorful!

Zhao Rui flew through the void of the universe at a speed far exceeding the speed of light. The reason for this speed was not because he had transcended the conservation of mass-energy, but because of the effect of dark energy, which compressed space.

His movement was a rapid, instantaneous teleportation.

This is the difference between spiritual power and physical energy.

It involves many unconventional fields.

Before Zhao Rui opened his hidden meridians and absorbed dark energy, his speed, no matter how fast, could only be compared to the speed of sound.

The distance is vastly different from instantaneous teleportation.

Even at its current speed, it is still incredibly slow in this vast sea of stars, like a snail.

To achieve interstellar travel, one must possess the ability to travel through time and space.

In other words, you can tear through space at will and reach your desired destination.

Or manipulate time, making Mount Sumeru as small as a mustard seed, the vast ocean as a mere grain of sand, and the ends of the earth as close as a foot.

The entire journey is compressed into a single instant by the power of time.

Zhao Rui desperately wanted to go home.

No matter how beautiful the universe is, it is still vast and boundless. Even after flying for ten days or half a month, you won't be able to see a single planet.

I doubt many people would genuinely want to stay here.

While flying, Zhao Rui studied the art of time travel. He had never seen this technique before and could only try to understand it based on his memories from his previous life.

He flew for an unknown amount of time, and all the rare treasures he had grabbed were long gone. He had no choice but to use his hidden veins to absorb dark energy to maintain his life.

Sometimes, to conserve energy, he would choose to fall into a deep sleep, relying solely on his subconscious to perceive the dangers around him.

The road ahead is long and the interstellar space is unpredictable.

Along the way, it wasn't all an empty void; sometimes we encountered strange gravitational fields, misty interstellar dust clouds, and magnificent yet terrifying stellar mutations.

When Zhao Rui was interested, he would leap closer to admire the view; when he got tired, he would stay far away to avoid unnecessary trouble.

After walking for an unknown number of days, he finally sensed a strong surge of spiritual energy.

This surge did not originate from the powerful strength of a single individual, but rather from a collective spiritual exchange among certain intelligent beings.

This kind of communication is imperceptible to ordinary martial artists.

Only those at the level of interstellar powerhouses like Zhao Rui can vaguely perceive it.

This is a strange fluctuation formed by the transmission of consciousness from intelligent beings, indicating that a group of intelligent beings live on the planet ahead.

Zhao Rui had been wandering for a long time and was exhausted both mentally and physically. He just wanted to find a place to rest.

After a moment's hesitation, it changed direction and rushed toward the planet where the soul fluctuations were located.

He was incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye, he traversed several planets and approached the planet inhabited by intelligent life.

There are no satellites or other technological products around the planet; only a few asteroids revolve around it.

Instead of rushing into the planet, Zhao Rui chose a satellite and flew over there.

This satellite is deserted, with its surface covered in lava pits and impact craters.

There is only one thin atmosphere, which contains mainly helium and hydrogen.

The oxygen content is extremely low.

Zhao Rui arrived at the satellite and used the Great Handprint Technique to conjure a small house built against the mountain out of thin air.

It was built without cement or soil, solely by cutting through giant rocks with the Broken Blade.

Although it's uncomfortable, at least I have a place to stay.

Zhao Rui sat cross-legged inside, taking a short rest.

The stars here are enormous, as big as two or three suns.

Zhao Rui rested in the stone house for a night until the stars raised the temperature here to over sixty degrees Celsius.

He had just awakened from his deep sleep.

The sun rises in the east, and auspicious purple clouds gather from the east!

There is no ethereal purple aura here, but there are intensely intense ultraviolet rays.

Zhao Rui's true energy surged, and dark energy and spiritual energy mixed around him, forming a peculiar force field that refined the vast ultraviolet storm into energy, covering his entire body.

His entire body shone like a small sun, becoming incredibly radiant.

On a distant, inhabited planet, a group of extraordinary beings, high in the clouds, are absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to nourish themselves.

Suddenly, a dim planet in the distant sky burst forth with dazzling light, which was extremely bright in the high sky.

The extraordinary individuals were greatly alarmed!

A fleeting star shines, and the opportunity for the Great Dao is revealed!

According to ancient tradition, whenever the Great Dao manifests itself in the world, extraordinary phenomena are born.

For thousands of years, a star that had never shone has suddenly begun to emit an unprecedented light, a phenomenon never before seen.

Such an unusual phenomenon surely indicates that the opportunity of the Great Dao is about to manifest.

Without bothering to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, everyone leaped down from the clouds and flew towards their own territories.

Within an hour, all the cultivators on the entire planet knew the news.

Within the sacred land of Langhuan!

A female cultivator with pointed ears and slightly bluish skin looked solemnly at the vast group of nearly a thousand disciples below and said, "The opportunity of Heaven has begun. My disciples must rise to the challenge and not slacken in the slightest. Fellow disciples should help and support each other—"

"This celestial event will unfold on the star Mo, which is in the east and governs the fire element; therefore, it should be based on the flames of fire."

As the woman finished speaking, everyone's faces showed a hint of excitement.

The opportunity that had been waiting for for thousands of years was finally realized by their generation. Born into a prosperous era, how could they not be excited?

It is said that the last time the heavenly secrets were revealed, it stirred up a great era, during which many outstanding talents emerged, illuminating the planet for hundreds of years.

Some powerful individuals even broke through the limitations of planets, taking the most important step and witnessing the vast starry universe.

However, after leaving the planet, this person disappeared without a trace and has not been found to this day.

It's unclear whether they've gone to a higher world or gotten lost in the sea of stars.

Although this person has disappeared without a trace, it does not diminish his prestige and influence across the entire planet.

Countless cultivators take him as their role model, hoping that one day they can also break through that level and take that step.

Now that a great era of contention has arrived, how could everyone not be excited?

Go!

The woman waved her hand, her figure flickered, and she left the mountaintop, stepping into the clouds.

"Senior sister, could it be just a coincidence that Mo Xing is shining so suddenly?"

Beside her, a graceful woman accompanied her. This woman was somewhat silent, and her expression showed little excitement, but rather a degree of caution.

"It's alright. The people from the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion have already calculated it. This shining star is indeed reflecting the secrets of heaven. There's no mistake."

The woman smiled nonchalantly and flew towards a distant mountain.

Soon the two women landed on a hilltop, where the forest was dense and covered with a vine-like plant.

This plant completely covered the hilltop, hindering the growth of any other plants and dominating the entire hilltop.

The two women fell into the vines, wielding their weapons to cut a path, heading straight for the deepest part of the vines.

"When the Grandmaster left, he said that if the secrets of heaven were revealed, he should come to this place to find the Heavenly Ladder for guidance."

"Now is the perfect time!"

Soon the two arrived at the entrance of a cave.
