Chapter 1377: Chapter 1333: The Incomplete Ancient Ship - An Inexplicable Crossing!

Mugu Peak’s identity was none other than a grandchild of another emperor-level Strong One from the Hundred Desires Dao Palace under the Emperor of Immortal Spirits.

However, the Hundred Desires Dao Palace was led by a woman and did not have so-called positions for sacred sons. Despite this, Mugu Peak’s status was not low, whether as a descendant of an emperor-strong one or because he himself was also a supreme demon king.

If Luo Yue hadn’t managed to break through the demon king realm, his status would still not compare to his.

This was the reason for Luo Yue’s doubts in her heart; Mugu Peak was not much, but it was that ancient monster at the emperor-level behind him that was the dangerous one.

If she returned to the Hundred Desires Demon Palace, and Mugu Peak fell outside, the emperor would be furious, and her position as a holy girl was far too inferior compared to an emperor.

Upon hearing Xiao Chen agree, Luo Yue couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"What are you going to do?"

Seeing Xiao Chen’s gaze towards her, a flash of fear crossed Mugu Peak’s eyes; he had heard Luo Yue and Xiao Chen’s conversation without missing a word.

To be taken as a slave would be worse than death, everything would be controlled by another person, no matter how astonishing your talents were, you could not escape the bonds of the contract.

This was handing over one’s life and death into another’s hands, becoming worse than death!

Desperation glimmered in Mugu Peak’s eyes, yet his entire body was completely restrained, and he couldn’t move a muscle!

"Mugu Brother, our master’s might shocks the All Heavens, to become his slave would be an utmost honor," Luo Yue said upon seeing Mugu Peak’s condition.

"You traitor of the demon race, you betrayed the Hundred Desires Dao Palace, betrayed the Emperor of Immortal Spirits, you are a traitor of our demon race, a traitor!" His eyes filled with unwillingness, as if roaring directly from his throat.

"No matter how you scream, it won’t change the final outcome, unless you wish to die!"

Luo Yue’s expression was filled with coldness.

"If you don’t wish to be a slave or servant, then go ahead and die!"

At that moment, Luo Yue pounced towards Mugu Peak, who was collapsed on the ground, her demon hand aimed straight for his head.

"No, I want to die!" Sensing the killing intent of the palm strike, Mugu Peak finally showed a glint of horror.

Luo Yue’s palm stopped tightly against his crown, the terror of death completely enveloping him.

He felt that Luo Yue truly wanted to kill him!

Huff! Huff! Huff!

He gasped for breath heavily, great terror between life and death, constantly facing violent shocks and fear, Mugu Peak’s spirit and will had already reached a critical point.

Watching Mugu Peak’s condition, a trace of disdain flashed through Luo Yue’s eyes.

His appearance was utterly miserable at the moment. Affected by the erosion of the Ancient Ship of Time and Space, his lifespan was depleted, his hair had already turned grey, and faint fine wrinkles appeared on his face, showing a trace of agedness.

Then, Luo Yue’s gaze turned to Xiao Chen, who was currently recuperating from his injuries in the Mountain River Seal Small World, unafraid of Mugu Peak causing any disturbances.

The only regret was being trapped inside the Nine Infants World, unable to leave, thus leading to a deadlock. The Elders of the Immortal Saint family would not discover the Mountain River Seal, but he also couldn’t escape!

Now, what worried him most was if this Elder of the Immortal Saint family sent messages back to the Immortal Tyrant Emperor of the Feathered Immortal Family, if this emperor-level power came searching with Xiao Chen’s current level of control, he probably couldn’t escape the scrutiny of the Tyrant Immortal Emperor.

Buzz!

Not knowing how much time had passed, finally radiating with nine-colored divine light, the sound of dragons roaring and tigers howling surged within Xiao Chen’s body, the originally torn injuries on his back fully healed as before.

However, there was still a mixture of divine and demonic energy stirring inside him. The attack of the Elder of the Immortal Saint Family was too overwhelming, directly piercing through his organs and infusing the wrapped divine and demonic power deep into his body.

It needed time to gradually dispel the divine and demonic forces penetrated deep within his body!

But at this moment, Xiao Chen had an important task to do, and that was to pass on the news of the Feathered Immortal Tyrant Emperor about to ascend to the emperor path.

Although the Ancient Ship of Time and Space was an artifact proving the Dao, the Tyrant Immortal Emperor’s ascension did not necessarily need the Ancient Ship of Time and Space. If he made an all-in bet and directly induced the Imperial Tribulation, pushing through time and space, it would pose a significant crisis for humanity!

Fortunately, though he was trapped in the Nine Infants World, deep in the Border Wasteland Region within the tribe, remnants of a connection to the Mountain River Seal Secret Realm remained.

Before the development of the Gu Yuan Clan, Xiao Chen had transformed the space within the Mountain River Seal Small World into several independent小秘境, serving various hall functions for the tribe.

Later, when the Gu Yuan Clan planned the construction of New City, Xiao Chen reclaimed most of the Secret Realms borrowed for the halls of the original Clan, thus severing the clan’s dependence on the Mountain River Seal.

This way, when he faced enemies in the Outer Domain, he also avoided worries from the rear.

As for the former halls’ secret realms, for Xiao Chen, who had become supreme and mastered the Law of Space, creating a small secret realm was quite simple!

Although most of the secret realms were recovered, Xiao Chen still imprinted the entrance and exit of the Mountain River Seal Small World within the clan.

But it was not used as a secret realm; instead, it served as a refuge for the Gu Yuan Clan, just like the last time Yun Wei ascended to the supreme level, the Earth was shattered, and King City collapsed, the tribal members of the Gu Yuan Clan took refuge in the Mountain River Seal Small World through these portals.

Quickly, Xiao Chen disappeared from in front of Luo Yue and appeared in another area within the Mountain and River Small World.

"Master."

Luli’s figure materialized, shimmering with a gentle green light, continuously rippling with clarity.

"Little Luli, can that treasure repair your true form?"

Soon after, Xiao Chen asked aloud.

Upon hearing Xiao Chen’s words, Luli leaped into the air, circling around the Ancient Ship of Time-Space, inspecting it incessantly.

"Master, this little ship contains a crystallization of time-space properties. This ship should be capable of traveling through the ages, and it can serve as nourishment for repairing the Small World, though this ship seems incomplete."

Suddenly, Luli frowned, speaking softly.

Although the treasure in front of her was different from the time-space she had once been in, understanding one law enables understanding of all; Luli still recognized the purpose of the ancient ship at a glance.

"Incomplete?"

Hearing this, Xiao Chen was taken aback. Under his scrutiny, the Time-Space Ancient Ship was intact; the entire small ship, although not exquisitely made, did not appear to be missing anything.

Hum!

Just like that, Luli grabbed the Time-Space Ancient Ship. The ship was almost as large as her tiny body, which appeared somewhat comical.

However, the power of the ages emanating from the Time-Space Ancient Ship had no effect on Luli as it spread over her.

"Master, this little ship should be crafted from a type of ancient wood of the ages, and there is a time-space crystal embedded inside."

Xiao Chen nodded. According to the age-old legend from the Desolate Wilds, the Time-Space Ancient Ship was made from the age-old pine, a type of pine that only exists within the layers of time.

As for what the layers of time are, no one can clearly explain!

Because that’s what the legends above the Desolate Land have always stated.

And the Age-old Pine is one of the world trees on par with the Tree of Life in Xiao Chen’s Small World.

Hum!

Following that, the Time-Space Ancient Ship in Luli’s hands emitted a slight hum. No matter how much it struggled, it could not break free from Luli’s grasp.

"Master, this is the core part of the ship."

In Luli’s hands was a sphere resembling a crystal, about the size of a baby’s fist, but the aura it emitted captivated Xiao Chen.

"Eh?"

At this moment, Luli lightly exclaimed, seemingly having discovered something.

"What is it?" Xiao Chen asked curiously.

Soon, a look of disdain appeared on Luli’s little face as she said, "Master, someone truly overestimated themselves, using such crude methods to control this little ship."

As Luli continuously tapped it with her small hands, a humming sound emerged from the crystal ball-like heart of time-space, followed by streaks of blood manifesting from its surface.

In just a few breaths, the blood streaks were completely expelled from the heart of time-space.

Xiao Chen then realized that the crimson entangled with the heart of time-space was obviously the result of blood sacrifices by generations of the Immortal Saint Family.

Unfortunately, despite their countless efforts, they merely formed fragile blood patterns on the outer surface of the heart of time-space. Under Luli’s gentle tapping, the hard work of the Immortal Saint Family over tens of thousands of years was ruined in an instant.

"Master, they were actually thinking of using bloodlines to control the power of time-space, which is truly laughable. The whithering and flourishing of ages, unless truly comprehended, any crooked or evil method will eventually pay a price. But luckily, I, Luli, encountered them and helped remove the crisis!"

Seeing Luli’s playful look, Xiao Chen chuckled, but soon spoke seriously, "Luli, can this treasure fully restore the Mountain and River Seal?"

The composition of the world relies on the framework of the power of time-space, which is why upon hearing of the Time-Space Ancient Ship, regardless of its authenticity, Xiao Chen followed Luo Yue into the Jiuying Aristocratic family.

The Mountain and River Seal was initially damaged because its time-space was disrupted, eliminating the domain where the laws operated.

"Yes."

Hearing Xiao Chen’s words, Luli put away her playfulness.

Over the years, Xiao Chen had also slowly repaired the Mountain and River Seal to a degree comparable to supreme royal arms.

Yet, he has never truly unleashed its function, apart from using its space to cultivate Spirit Medicine or, in blood-soaked battles, invoking the Mountain and River Seal, relying on its power and sturdiness to withstand enemies.

But he was very clear in his heart; he had never truly mastered the use of this Bronze Ancient Seal!

Thinking back, why did this ancient seal appear in such an ancient tomb and even brought him to this world!

Were the gods and demons, immortals, and Buddhas of his previous life’s time-space fictitious or not, and why did the Mountain and River Seal bring him to the Desolate Wilds?

What connection really exists between the two worlds!

If the myths and legends of his previous life were not true, then why did a treasure like the Mountain and River Seal appear; perhaps he needs to find this answer!
