Dark Blood Age

Chapter 697: Chapter 697 You are here again

Hull had never seen a real palace since he was born, not even from a distance. So he actually didn’t know what a palace should be like.

But when he saw the magnificent and slender “palace” behind the illusions, wind, and snow, he felt that it was the greatest palace in the world, and it should be the legendary palace of the Supreme God, otherwise, who could build a palace between the two highest snow-capped peaks?

It was not something that could be built by mortals. As if the two now peaks were hacked off by someone, they had become the foundation of the palace, supporting each side of the palace, allowing the palace to stay in the air between the two mountain peaks. However, because of the perennial snow, the bottom of the palace has long been frozen with countless huge icicles like a forest hanging upside down below it.

Hull was sure that the previous call came from there. Because as soon as he put on the semi-transparent hemispherical cover, from the depths of the palace, there would be a burst of intermittent but very urgent voices, like someone crying for help, but also like a warning. It made Hull hesitate.

He was afraid that maybe he had made a mistake. If it was not the temple of the great and only Supreme God, and if it was the palace of the devil, then what should he do?

For a person with a firm belief, this was an extremely important and very painful thing, so it took him several days to approach this palace. However, the closer he got, the deeper the doubt in his heart was. He was puzzled because he could not see any statues of gods and goddesses outside the magnificent palace.

He had indeed never seen any temples, but he had always heard of someone talking about it. Even the small temple in Purul Castle has a beautiful fountain and a large statue of Ice Plain God. However, there was no sign of any such sculpture or garden in what has been called the greatest temple in legend. Especially where the flakes of snow had fallen, it revealed extremely smooth and perfectly black walls as if nothing could make a scratch on it, not even the hard and sharp mountain peaks.

However, it was weird that such an indestructible palace wall had a large hole in the middle, seemingly without an end. It was whimpering in the wind at a high altitude as if there were countless souls weeping inside.

In the beginning, Hull thought it was the huge gate of the palace, but only until he got closer did he realize that it was not like that. The gate seemed to be forcibly torn apart under a huge force, just like the ice holes he used to create after slamming the ice pick into the ice to break them apart.

Therefore, when he stood on the edge of the cliff, he was hesitant, wondering if he should slide down and enter the magnificent palace. Especially when he looked down, those hallucinations appeared again.

A person who was dressed in a different kind of white, bloated dress had climbed out of the hole in a panic, followed the slender palace, and tried to climb to the snowy peak at the other end. However, in the violent shock of the explosion, he slipped and fell into the abyss. The extremely terrified face behind the semi-transparent hemispherical was carved into Hull’s mind so deeply that it made him shudder uncontrollably. Then the illusion vanished, and the world before him suddenly returned to the slender and magnificent palace in snow.

At this time, he suddenly heard a dull groan from the center of the palace, resounding through the world, shattering the ice and snow. And in an instant, behind the dark walls of the slender palace, it seemed that many lamps were lit up one after another in the air, emitting the endless sacred radiance. Then after a violent distortion in the air, the magnificent palace, which lay between the snowy peaks, vanished from his sight, disappearing again, as legend would have it.

“The great and only Supreme God, as your most humble servant, I am fortunate to see your miracle...”

Hull finally determined that this was the temple of the Supreme God. He knelt down in the snow tremblingly, praying devoutly, tears streaming down his face...

In order to avoid encountering other green-shelled insects and the insects from the spore forest, Chu Yunsheng rode the green-shelled insect toward the maximum altitude, flying directly below the edge of energy turbulence.

It was a journey of more than five hundred kilometers. Without the assistance of a positioning system, it was very difficult to accurately reach the location of Wu Yi Mountain on the map. Chu Yunsheng could only give the green-shelled insect a rough direction instruction according to the map.

From the map provided by the military department, it could be seen that there was a civilian airport between Wu Yi Mountain City and Wu Yi Mountain. It should’ve been abandoned now. If it was not occupied by insects or covered by other plants, he should be able to find it. But if it didn’t work, based on the speed of the green-shelled insect, he should be able to find a safe time to land and check the nearby towns, then he would be able to calibrate the map direction again.

Before leaving Shanghai, Chu Yunsheng had thought about several possibilities. The most risky one was that Old Man No. 1 had already set a trap near the underground graveyard of spaceships, and he was waiting for him to enter the trap. The second possibility was that, when he left the city, he might suddenly launch an attack to completely eliminate his new forces in Shanghai.

For this reason, he deliberately stayed in the city for more than ten days. Before setting off, he used black gas to make sure that there were no micro-robots around him. After confirming that there were no micro spy robots, he sneaked out of the city.

However, even if No. 1 had set up an ambush in the graveyard of spaceships, as long as he didn’t choose to stay behind to attack them, he would still be able to run away with the amount of energy and talismans he currently had.

Moreover, the speed of the green-shelled insect was extremely fast. Although it was a distance of 500 kilometers, if he didn’t need to check his location all the time and fly at high altitude to avoid the enemy, he could get there in less than an hour. So at most he would return back to the city in two to three hours. At the moment, Shanghai had Old Youling and those powerful awakeners, plus the new equipment, even if No.1’s force was strong, he would not be able to eliminate all his forces in two to three hours.

Originally, he wanted to notify Song Zihuai and Fang Yuehou, those two people, but when he thought that telling them this might cause the micro-adjustment to appear, and that would alter No.1 that old man as well, he decided to keep it secret.

After about a little more than an hour, Chu Yunsheng controlled the blue green-shelled insect to descend and land in the first city after he left Shanghai.

Because it was surrounded by mountains, there were many people who stayed here and did not escape to the big city. The level of chaos was far worse than that of Shanghai. They didn’t have an army to help them, and with just the police force, and some people who didn’t even know why they had supernatural powers, they were not able to defend themselves from monsters’ attack at all.

Although people were being chased by various monsters all over the street, Chu Yunsheng only flew down to check the names on the several big buildings to confirm his location and then flew away.

He had flown off course. He was currently at a place that was 70 kilometers toward the west of Wu Yi mountain.

After confirming the location, he flew eastward for more than ten minutes, and finally landed among the mountains. After groping for a while in the dark, he was sure that it should be near Wu Yi Mountain.

The location of the graveyard of spaceships was actually not directly below Wu Yi Mountain but should be located at a deep underground level between Hong Kong and Wu Yi Mountain. It was only a little closer to Wu Yi Mountain.

After spending a lot of effort and relying on the natural sensitivity of the Golden-shelled insect to the geographical patterns underground, Chu Yunsheng hid in the golden-shelled insect’s and finally found the entrance to the spaceship graveyard – the crack caused by the earthquake.

This took him another hour, and then along the direction to Hong Kong, he quickly drilled into the deep crack.

In order to deal with those mutated mice and to prevent himself from being suffocated to death under the ground, Chu Yunsheng had a large number of fiery talismans and oxygen bags in the storage talisman.

But unexpectedly, his journey was surprisingly smooth. He did not encounter mutated mice or other monsters in the cracks. When the golden-shelled insect penetrated the ceiling of the underground lake, the surroundings were very quiet. A few huge monsters only revealed their shadow in the deep water, and then they cruised far away.

Maybe it was because of his quick response this time. As soon as the golden-shelled insect fell toward the surface of the lake, he sealed back the golden-shelled insect immediately and summoned the green-shelled insect. And then he flew to the cave where Xiao Qingshan had died.

But the quieter and smoother the journey was, the more vigilant Chu Yunsheng was. Something just didn’t feel right.

He held the sword in his hand, unsheathed it, and quickly entered the narrow cave. Xiao Qingshan’s body was still there, and the package was buried beside him, covered with a layer of dirt, which seemed to be no different from the last time he came here.

He flipped through the diary in the rotten cloth strip. The contents inside were exactly how he thought would be. Even the creases, bloodstains, and the degree of corruption in individual pages were all exactly the same.

‘Is this really fake?’

Chu Yunsheng clenched the sharp sword in his hand, took a deep breath, climbed into the narrow gap that his current human body would pass through. He was moving as fast as he could until he arrived at that place.

Countless inverted spaceships appeared in his eyes like many tombstones. His shadow flitted between the wide and tall walls of spaceships, and the pale green light danced like ghosts through the skeletons of gigantic monsters, following closely behind him.

Far away, on the tall altar, there seemed to be a figure, slowly standing up, shaking off the long-standing dust on his body, and slowly casting his eyes on Chu Yunsheng who was on top of a green-shelled insect. Then it said slowly in a voice that seemed to have just woken up from the eternal sleep.

“You came back again...”
