Chapter 419: What’s the Purpose of the Outer World Invasion?
If Cui Heng had to identify the most mysterious person he’d learned of since he transmigrated, it would definitely be Zhou Juntian.
This person was really involved in too many
things.
It was as if he was everywhere.
However, it was such an incomparably powerful figure who left a desperate altar in the core of the Dark Sea Star. He even prepared his own memorial tablet.
What exactly happened on Daozhou Star back then to make Zhou Juntian leave in despair? Why did he turn into a stone man later?
One doubt after another surfaced in his mind.
At this moment, a thought suddenly appeared in his heart. Should he look for that Dao God?
He wanted to ask him what Daozhou Star looked like in its original state.
Perhaps he could find some clues about Zhou Juntian.
Back in the Purple Sun Realm, Cui Heng had also found some information about Daozhou Star.
In the past, Daozhou Star was considered a major living star. The strongest cultivator was already at the Sage realm.
Especially after Zhou Juntian, the peerless genius, was reborn, the strength of the entire planet had advanced by leaps and bounds. It was about to form a realm of its own.
However, for some reason, the civilization of Daozhou Star was actually destroyed overnight.
After the civilization was destroyed, only Zhou Juntian escaped.
He became a Sage King in an extremely short period of time and used less than a hundred years to step into the Requesting Realm and ascend to the Purple Sun Heaven.
Then, the Purple Sun Heaven collapsed.
“If I can really find Zhou Juntian, I should be able to understand many unknown secrets and communicate with this world in greater depth. My cultivation realm can increase greatly.”
Cui Heng thought to himself, “Moreover, if I want to reopen the Heaven Gate, I have to find Zhou Juntian, the artifact spirit of the Heaven Gate. Unfortunately, the clues he left behind are too few.”
Now, his understanding of Zhou Juntian basically came from the records and information he had heard from some people. It already involved so many secrets.
If he could find the actual person, it would definitely be a great harvest.
However, he was too difficult to find.
He would settle for the next best thing. By finding that Dao God to investigate the matter about Zhou Juntian back then, he might be able to gain something.
Cui Heng noted down this plan first before looking at Yue Canghai. He said in a low voice, “You said that you’ve been working for that Outer World Divine Lord Yu Tian since a hundred years ago. What have you done?”
Since Divine Lord Yu Tian had asked Yue Canghai, a Creator, to do something, he must have a goal. He could use this opportunity to pry into some of the Outer World’s goals and prepare for the interrogation of the three Outer World experts he’d caught.
“This… this, I, Immortal Venerable, please spare my life! I only did this to live…” Yue Canghai said with a bitter expression, “After seeing him in the Heaven Gate, my life and death were already controlled by him. I could only listen to his orders.”
“What Divine Lord Yu Tian wanted me to do is not too much. He just wanted some things from me. Whether it be the asteroids floating in the starry skies, tall mountains on planets, or ordinary animals. Occasionally, he’ll ask for some humans.”
“I only sent these things to him. There were very few people sent. There are less than a thousand people in total. Moreover, in terms of numbers, they don’t even number as much as the casualties in a chaotic war created by the human world.”
“Immortal Venerable, I didn’t cause any serious consequences, nor did I harm all living beings. Please spare my life, Immortal Venerable.”
Towards the end, he began to beg for mercy.
“Looks like you have nothing else to say.” Cui Heng glanced at Yue Canghai indifferently, and this Creator also became an ant.
At the same time, Zen Master Shantong returned to his human form.
As soon as the old monk recovered, he immediately prostrated himself on the ground and knelt in front of Cui Heng. He said extremely respectfully, “Greetings, Immortal Venerable. No matter what Immortal Venerable asks, I’ll tell you everything I know!”
He was completely frightened.
The experience of watching himself become an ant filled his heart with fear, and he no longer dared to have any thoughts of bargaining
“Yes, how is your experience in the Heaven Gate different from theirs?” Cui Heng asked directly.
He had more or less understood their experiences in the Heaven Gate.
The previous experiences were similar. The biggest difference was after they were gathered in the white empty space.
Everyone was teleported to different places.
Zen Master Shantong immediately replied, “Immortal Venerable, I saw Zhou Juntian. Unlike them, after entering one of the golden lights, I was teleported to a cave and saw the stone man who called himself Zhou Juntian!”
“Oh?” Cui Heng raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard that. He did not expect to hear more news about Zhou Juntian here. It was really a pleasant surprise.
“There was no scarlet light at Zhou Juntian’s place. That cave was filled with a pure and holy charm,” Zen Master Shantong continued. “I comprehended the Buddhist Dharma Dao there and my cultivation improved greatly.
Before I left, Zhou Juntian said something to me, but I still haven’t understood what it means. He said, ‘Six days as one, sea of stars merge, that is the formation of my Dao. If there’s a visitor from another world, you can help him.’
I don’t understand what the first part means, but the latter part is very easy to understand. Therefore, after meeting Divine Lord Yu Tian, I followed Zhou Juntian’s instructions and chose to help.”
At this point, he paused slightly, then smiled bitterly. “Of course, it’s more because I couldn’t withstand the temptation of the Outer World, so I betrayed this Star Field.”
In the end, Zen Master Shantong explained. He was clearly afraid that Cui Heng would feel that he was shirking responsibility. This was very likely to have the opposite effect.
In fact, Cui Heng did not care about these details at all. He had already fallen into deep thought and thought to himself, “Six days as one, sea of stars merge, that is the formation of my Dao?”
“Is this Zhou Juntian’s cultivation path? That doesn’t seem right. From their description earlier, Zhou Juntian’s strength has definitely crossed the Heaven Gate realm.” “It’s just that I can’t be sure how many Heaven Gate levels he has broken through yet. However, this method of breaking through the Heaven Gate to become stronger has never been a cultivation technique. It’s just a way to obtain the characteristics of power.”
“But if it’s not cultivation, then what does the phrase “that is the formation of my Dao” mean? Which six days does the six days refer to? What does the ‘sea of stars’ and ‘merge’ mean?”
“Why did he get someone to help the Outer World? What exactly does he want to do?!”
Thinking of this, Cui Heng frowned.
After obtaining new information, his understanding of Zhou Juntian had indeed increased, but he had discovered more unknowns related to him.
“Immortal, Immortal Venerable, I, I’m done.” At this moment, Zen Master Shantong whispered, afraid that he would anger Cui Heng.
“It’s not over yet.” Cui Heng smiled when he heard this. “Tell me what Divine Lord Yu Tian asked you to do?”
“He only asked me to give him books.” Zen Master Shantong hurriedly explained, “Divine Lord Yu Tian only wanted one thing from me, and that is books. As long as it’s a book from this world, he wants it all.”
“Books? Previously, he wanted living beings and matter, now he wants books…” Cui Heng’s eyes narrowed slightly as he muttered, “This seems to be to study the information of the civilization here. What is he doing?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he opened his palm.
A ball of Chaotic Qi appeared out of thin air, but it was wrapped in an invisible barrier. It would not overflow or cause any damage.
or cau
This was the Primordial Cage.
Then, Cui Heng’s gaze moved slightly, and the Chaotic Qi in the Primordial Cage began to condense into a point.
Then, the invisible barrier wrapped around the outside slowly cracked.
Immediately after, three figures walked out.
They were the three Outer World experts who had been imprisoned by Cui Heng earlier. Every one of them had the strength of the Second Heaven Gate realm.
Cui Heng stared at the three of them and asked directly, “What’s the reason for your invasion and what’s your core goal?”
