Chapter 20: The Light Curtain Opens

The seven-day banquet ended with everyone's unfinished business, and except for the people who went out to stay at important posts, the people who participated in the banquet, whether it was Xingjun or other personnel, were all drunk.

For the next three days, Genting Heavenly Palace was extra quiet, and the vast majority of people hid in their homes to sober up and drink.

Three days later, Zhuo Hua announced to the whole world: The Cloud Palace is about to open the light curtain array, and the entire void will be blocked, and no one will be able to enter or exit.

On the day the light curtain opened, the wind was beautiful, and the sky seemed to be cleaned and spotless.

The twenty-eight Nakshatras came to their respective palaces early in costumes, and hung their magic weapons under the dome of the palace according to the position of their star palaces.

Staying until ten o'clock at noon, running directly above the Yuntian Monument today, Zhuo Hua activated the Xuanhuang Mirror and began to open the light curtain.

In an instant, the whole body of the Yuntian Monument exuded a golden light, plating Cangwu Mountain, a 10,000-year-old snow-capped mountain, with a layer of gold.

At the same time that the Yuntian Monument began to glow, a navy blue five-clawed divine dragon began to condense above the Eastern Blue Dragon Palace, with all its beards and hair, and its expression was lifelike, looking proudly at all living beings in the mortal world with its teeth and claws.

Naturally, a delicate and beautiful fiery red Vermilion Bird naturally appeared on the Suzaku Palace in the south, and it raised its neck and hissed at the clear blue sky, and then began to comb its fire-colored feathers with its golden beak.

In the western sky, a white tiger was stretching lazily, its limbs stretched forward and backward, yawning with its bloody mouth wide open. After stretching his waist, the white tiger sat up in high spirits, and a wagging tail coiled its two front paws, intentionally or unintentionally.

The last thing that appeared was the Northern Xuanwu, a half-turtle and half-snake beast with a strange appearance, it had a hard shell like a turtle, and its head and limbs came out of the hard shell like an ordinary turtle, and a pair of clever little eyes looked at the world. And it was coiled with a stout python with a broad head, and from time to time it spat out snake letters.

This has both the docility and tenacity of the turtle, as well as the insidiousness and cunning of the poisonous snake, which may also explain why the Doumu Hedgehog can be in the same stream with the python Jun Song Xiang.

Just when the divine beasts above the four palaces had already risen, the roof of the Lingjue Palace, which was located in the middle of the Yunding Heavenly Palace, also raised an illusion, and after the golden light dissipated, a three-legged golden crow wearing a three-flavored true fire armor, covered in black, with three feet stood proudly between heaven and earth.

The four divine beasts in the south, east, west, and northwest saw the three-legged golden crow coming, and immediately bowed their heads and knelt down to show their obedience.

Then, with a long sigh of the three-legged golden crow, the illusions of the divine beasts above the five palaces disappeared at the same time, turning into five beams of light of different colors that soared straight into the sky, causing thunder to roll in the air.

Just when everyone on the ground thought that this was the end, from the place where the thunder and lightning had just occurred, a layer of something like a thin veil slowly began to appear, and this layer of thin veil slowly stretched out, enveloping the surrounding sky, and even today, which is usually impossible to look directly at, under the shroud of the tulle, the light has become much softer.

The whole spectacle lasted until the sun went down, and the whole sky was covered with that layer of tulle, and the blue sky seemed to be covered with a layer of dust, which made people want to reach out and wipe it away, but they couldn't do it.

The light of the Cloud Sky Monument was finally extinguished, and the illusions of the divine beasts above the five huge palaces also disappeared without a trace, and the world returned to its former tranquility as if nothing had happened.

The night slowly enveloped the Yunting Heavenly Palace, and the entire Cloud Palace was surprisingly quiet, there was no sound of singing and dancing in the evening on weekdays, nor the song of drinking and singing, only the sound of the waves hitting the reef beyond the coast, and the occasional birdsong in Cuiwei Mountain.

"It's finally over!" Zhuo Hua collapsed on the bed sweating profusely, grinning at the rooftop and smirking.

The opening of the light curtain means that this place will no longer be invaded by the secret expeditionary fleet led by Lan Ling, and from now on, he only needs to devote himself to Annei, and the boulder that has been hanging in his heart has finally fallen.

After resting for a while, Zhuo Hua thought that he still had to gather the palace masters and tell them about the current situation, so as to stabilize their hearts.

Thinking of this, Zhuo Hua supported his body, came to Yan Tianqin, and stroked the willow wind song.

As soon as the song was played, he heard the loud voices of Lin Bai and Yu Heishi coming from outside the main hall of the Lingjue Palace, Zhuo Hua got up and tidied up his clothes, and then stepped to the top of the main hall.

"The Zhongqing family is tired!" Zhuo Hua asked with a smile.

"I'm not tired, I'm not tired! How can I be tired for such a big event today? Wait a minute, I'll also make an appointment with Heishi to drink all-night wine!" Lin Bai said to Zhuo Hua with a red face.

Yu Heishi smiled and tapped Lin Bai with his finger, and it could be seen that he was also very happy today.

Qin Ying was also very happy, she didn't wear the vermilion she likes on weekdays today, but just wore a dark skirt, which was simple and looked very elegant. She stepped forward and asked Zhuo Hua with a smile: "Yuanjun, may I ask if there is no one in this void at this moment?

Zhuo Hua nodded with a smile and said, "Not only can't any people from the outside enter, but even if we people want to go out, it is impossible to take a boat from Dongying Continent to other voids as before." ”

"May I ask Yuanjun, can the Heavenly Tree still be used?" asked Doumu Ji.

Zhuo Hua thought for a moment and replied, "The Celestial Tree can still be used, but all the exits connected to the Celestial Tree, except for one auspicious cloud void, have been destroyed. And the environment of the Xiangyun Void is very harsh, and the location of the temple where the exit is located is constantly changing, if the Secret Fleet wants to tear the Xiangyun Void and enter the Cloud Palace through the Heavenly Tree, it is almost impossible. ”

"Otherwise, let's send a small fleet to patrol the area around the Xiangyun Void for a long time, and if we really encounter a secret fleet, we can give us a warning in advance. If you want to go out and collect some Golden Sun Essence, you can also take it here. Kui Timber Wolf bowed.

Zhuo Hua nodded: "Calling everyone here tonight is exactly for the sake of Jin Ri Essence." Everyone knew that the Nikkei Jue that they had brought back from the Nine Heavens Nova and the Adjacent Void last time had all been consumed today. I don't know if you have taken a closer look at our golden day today, the original light is boundless, but now it is a little soft and dim. According to the current consumption rate of the Cloud Palace, within 10,000 years, this golden day will definitely be extinguished, and our void will also usher in endless darkness!"

"Yuan Jun can rest assured, the minister and Yu Changsheng have already improved the Heaven Replenishment Great Array, and can increase the previous ten refinement supplement one to ten refinement supplement six, so that the brothers of the White Tiger Palace can use six times more Nikkei Jue than before when they go out to collect it!" Lin Bai excitedly introduced to Zhuo Hua and the others.

"Is that really the case?" Zhuo Hua couldn't believe it, every time the White Tiger Palace went out before, the supplies he pulled back couldn't replenish much essence for Jin Ri, not only did he lose his life and money, but he couldn't solve the fundamental problem. If Lin Bai and Yu Changsheng's new formation could increase the utilization rate by so much, then he could really sit back and relax.

"Naturally, it's true, tomorrow I can bring Yu Changsheng to explain it to Yuan Jun personally. Lin Bai said.

"Very good! This is a fortunate thing for the country! It just so happened that some time ago, Qin Tianjian discovered another batch of newborn golden days, and the White Tiger Palace will arrange it after a while to collect some golden sun essence and come back to test the power of the new heaven-replenishing array. The maintenance of this light curtain requires a lot of essence, and I hope that you must not think that after the light curtain is opened, you can immediately release Nanshan, on the contrary, now is the beginning of the most dangerous era. Our monarchs and ministers are united in our efforts, first to restore the livelihood of the people in the world, and then to revive the great cause. ”

The crowd bowed and sang.

Three days later, the Dark Expeditionary Fleet, which was resupplying in a neutral void, received the news that the light curtain had opened in the Primal Void. The report from the Nakshatra Observation Ship also confirmed the news sent back by the spies, and the Yuanxiang Void, which was closely monitored by them, suddenly darkened three days ago, and finally could not be observed.

Lan Ling held the two reports in his hand, glanced at each of them, and then threw them into the fireplace.

"Lord Changshi, now that the opponent has taken the lead in opening a powerful defensive array, we can't move forward at cruising speed anymore, otherwise, when the opponent creates a large god-level magic weapon, it will become a graveyard for the expeditionary force. Moreover... Besides," said one of the soldiers.

"Besides, if you have something to say, why bother to spit out. Lan Ling raised her eyes, and the slender tips of her eyes made her eyes look very sultry, and the soldier suddenly chuckled in his heart, and his face turned red involuntarily.

"Say!" Lan Ling couldn't see a man talking in a hurry, and he was a little unhappy in his heart.

"Qi Qi Long History, the time limit given to us by the Great Emperor is less than a hundred years left, but at this speed, we will not be able to reach the Yuan Elephant Void no matter what. When Changshi led the army to the expedition, he made a military order, if the deadline was missed, the emperor would not be spared!" After joining the army, he bent down and bowed to Lanling respectfully.

"Don't worry about this, after the replenishment here is completed, the fleet can turn on the flip mode, and it only takes three years for us to reach the periphery of the Yuan Xiang Void. ”

"But for a long time, now that the Yuanxiang Void has opened the light curtain array, even if our fleet arrives at the Yuanxiang Void, it will not be able to enter! Even if we concentrate all the firepower of the fleet to attack the light curtain, I'm afraid it will have little effect! If the other party takes advantage of the exhaustion of our army's essence and takes advantage of the situation to counterattack, it will definitely be a catastrophe!"

Lan Ling turned sideways, looked at the deep nothingness outside the porthole, put his hands on the back of the chair, his chin rested on the back of his hand, and chuckled: "Do you think you can sit back and relax when you turn on the light curtain?"
