Chapter 50: The Search for the Emperor's Weapon
With inexplicable worries, Shang Weiyun and Su Chen walked into the small world opened up by the emperor step by step, to face the unknowable future.
The thick white mist slowly dispersed, revealing the true face of the small world.
Su Chen and the others couldn't help but be shocked, because what they saw in their eyes was too shocking! It was an endless sea of stars, densely covered with countless stars, and where they landed was a meteorite comparable to a hill, and above their heads was a river of stars, shining brightly, looking close, in fact, it was very far away from them.
The most terrifying thing is that after they entered this small world, there was constantly a majestic majesty permeating from the unknown. Although it was already very weak when it was transmitted to them, it still brought an incomparable sense of oppression to the two of them, just like an ant on the ground facing a giant dragon soaring above the nine heavens, almost falling to the ground, unable to even speak.
That's what it feels like to be at a very long distance!
After a long while, that supreme power disappeared, and Shang Weiyun and Su Chen realized that their backs were already soaked, and cold sweat was breaking out on their foreheads.
"It is said that there are a total of two Imperial Treasures here, could it be said that both of them are imperial weapons?" Shang Qiyun's face turned pale, and he had a very bad premonition.
"Two Imperial Weapons......" Su Chen was the same, "And I heard that these two Imperial Weapons have been confronting each other, and this fluctuation is most likely due to the battle of Imperial Weapons." ”
"That's right. Shang Weiyun nodded.
Now, both of them have a trace of retreat in their hearts, if it is two imperial weapons that are fighting, the slightest aftermath can make them disappear, let alone compete with others, whether they can survive the battle of the imperial weapon is a question.
They also understood why so many peerless masters had died in the early days of the emperor's birth!
The emperor weapon has a spirit, and it is two emperor weapons in a state of awakening, except for dying in the hands of competitors, I am afraid that they will be wiped out by the awakened emperor weapon! As for whether it was killed by the emperor on its own initiative, or because the battle between the emperor weapons was affected, it is difficult to say.
If the emperor weapon was still in a state of sleep when it was born, then these immortal-level powerhouses could still get the emperor weapon, but if it was an emperor weapon that had already awakened...... No wonder they never succeeded.
But a new question also arises, why are the weak mortal realm monks not affected?
"Maybe it's because the emperor has a spirit and deliberately targets cultivators who are too powerful, right?" Su Chen hesitated.
Shang Weiyun didn't answer, he felt that this kind of speculation was a bit unbelievable, but he couldn't think of any other explanation......
"Are we going to move on?" Shang Qiyun asked.
"Let's go, at least go meet the so-called emperor. Su Chen sighed, they couldn't leave with nothing, let alone just give up without doing anything. If the Imperial Weapon would not harm the minor monks of the Mortal Realm, at least they would not be in danger for a short time.
"But how can we get close to the location of the Imperial Weapon?" Shang Weiyun frowned and looked around, beyond the meteorite was the boundless void, although the meteorite was moving all the time, but the direction didn't seem to be right.
"Now take a look at the meteorite and see if there's anything special. Su Chen said, and then the two of them took action. Since after entering the small world, they came directly to this moving meteorite, maybe this meteorite is the key to their continued progress, maybe there are some formations, altars and other things hidden on the meteorite, which can teleport them to the deeper depths of the small world, or even directly to the emperor!
This meteorite was too big, like a hill, Su Chen and Shang Qiyun went to check it separately, and it took a lot of effort before they finally found an anomaly.
It was an accident that Su Chen found this anomaly, and when he was looking around, he accidentally stepped on it and found that the part below the knee was gone, but he could still feel it. Surprised, he stretched his feet out and inside, watching his legs disappear and reappear, reappear and disappear.
Then, he called Shang Qiyun.
"What do you think?" asked Su Chen.
"I had to take risks. Shang Weiyun looked solemn, "This place should be similar to a spatial node, which can lead to other places. You wait here first, and I'll explore the way. ”
"I'll go. Su Chen said, "Your cultivation is stronger than mine, once something happens to me in front of me, maybe I will have to rely on you to save me." And in case an accident happens to you, I'm afraid I'm helpless. ”
"But ......" Shang Weiyun wanted to say something, but Su Chen had already pushed him away and stepped directly into the location of this suspected spatial node!
Shang Weiyun was shocked, but he still restrained himself, if the two of them acted together but had an accident at the same time, it would be more than worth the loss.
After a while, Su Chen appeared again, and said with a happy face: "Great, this is indeed a portal, and there is no danger. ”
"Okay, let's go. Shang Weiyun was also happy, and then entered the "portal" with Su Chen.
Behind the portal, there was a different scene, there were no stars in the sky, no infinite void, there was just a road, a road surrounded by chaos, I don't know where it leads, I don't know how long it is, the two of them glanced at each other, and continued to move forward.
"How could this be?" Shang Weiyun looked at the chaos around him, feeling very unreal, but the path they were treading under his feet was real.
The road in the chaos was extremely monotonous, and neither of them spoke much, but they kept moving forward, but they felt that there was no end in sight.
"It's not an option, and there seems to be no end to it. Shang weeping clouds.
"But we've been walking for so long, and we haven't touched the space nodes or formations, and there seems to be no other place to set foot except this road. Su Chen said helplessly.
Indeed, they either kept moving on or turned back, as for breaking into the chaos by the roadside...... Neither of them dared to take this risk, because they did not yet have the strength to freely enter and exit the formless places, such as the "Chaos World" that appeared here.
However, the two looked back with a tacit understanding, only to find that the way had been swallowed up by chaos, and the so-called "way back" no longer existed.
"Like...... I can only move forward. Su Chen smiled bitterly.
Shang Weiyun also shook his head and sighed, "Then let's move on." ”
The two of them hit the road again, still a repetitive and monotonous landscape, surrounded by areas they did not dare to explore, because the devil knew what was in the "Chaos World", and they could not risk each other's lives.
There is no way to retreat, and there is no end in sight.
They could no longer estimate the time, and they were even numb to the monotonous and repetitive spectacle.
Just when he was about to be suffocated, Su Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Shang Weiyun: "We need to take risks, otherwise even if we die, this road will not be finished." ”
Shang Weeyun was stunned for a moment and asked, "How to take the risk?"
Su Chen observed the chaos around him for a while before replying, "Entering the chaos, I always feel that something is wrong when I think about it. Didn't the forces of all parties send the dead in and come into contact with the Emperor's weapon before, and they returned safely. Think about it, how did those people come into contact with the imperial artifact, and how did they return?"
Shang Weeyun suddenly seemed to have grasped the key.
"From another point of view, the Imperial Weapon will kill the powerful monks, but it is harmless to us who are weak, firstly, it shows that the Imperial Weapon is revived, and they are acting with their own consciousness;
Moreover, if it was really as Su Chen said, it was the Emperor Weapon who was in charge of all this, and it would inevitably seem weird and terrifying, because they couldn't guess the reason why the Emperor Weapon did this.
"So, you mean that we can see all of this as a test for us by the Imperial Weapon, the previous starry sky and the current Chaos Road are all levels set by the Imperial Weapon, and only those who have passed the level will have the opportunity to see the Imperial Weapon?"
It seems to make sense to understand it this way. Su Chen said, "So we can't look at everything we encounter with inherent thinking. Once, when I was practicing, I was trapped in my own inherent thinking, and I couldn't find the answer I wanted, but then I realized that I finally saw a new world. ”
"So, the real road may be in a place where we dare not set foot?" Shang Weiyun's eyes lit up.
"Maybe that's it. Su Chen said, "Just like our practice, we have always followed the law of the ancients, but as far as I know, those who have really reached the top are not step-by-step, they can always walk out of a different path and live a different wonderful life." ”
Su Chen found that he was feeling a lot of emotion at the moment, he looked at the way he disappeared, and said softly: "The road of life cannot be turned back, and the same is true of the road of cultivation, only keep moving forward." However, if you want to see scenery that is different from what others see, you can't follow other people's paths. If you want to surpass, sometimes you even have to take risks, think what ordinary people dare not think, and do what ordinary people dare not do!"
"Brother Shang, I'll take the first step, and you will follow!"
With some understanding and feeling in his heart, Su Chen's will was unprecedentedly firm, and he stepped into the chaotic world without hesitation, and his figure disappeared in an instant!
Shang Weiyun was shocked, but he hesitated and didn't follow immediately.
The scene in front of him changed again, Su Chen looked at the new "world", but he froze, because he came to the starry sky again!
It's just that his location is different from before, not the meteorite with the size of the hill before, but a real mountain, with ancient trees and lush greenery, but when you look up, there are stars and rivers, and some huge meteorites are even within reach, of course, this is just an illusion.
"Where have I been?" Su Chen was stunned, the starry sky was vast, and there was no place in front and back, but he had finally escaped from that monotonous road.
"By the way, what about Shang Weeping Cloud?" Su Chen looked around, but did not see the figure of his companion.
"Wouldn't ......he? Lost him?" Su Chen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said to himself, "I'll go, if he has any accidents, how can I explain to the Immortal Palace!"
Shang Weiyun really didn't follow, and Su Chen waited in place for a long time without seeing him.
"That's it, I can only go to find the emperor first. Su Chen finally went on the road alone, to find a way forward, maybe when the dust settled, he could see Shang Weeping Cloud again, but he didn't want to have anything to do, otherwise Su Chen would not only be unable to explain to the Palace of Eternal Life, but also have a bad conscience for the rest of his life.
He searched the mountain carefully, guessing that there should also be a "portal" that leads to the next level.
"What a special imperial weapon, why are you doing so much mystery?" Su Chen walked around the mountains and forests, and couldn't help but complain, "It's a scourge to make the people rejuvenate and kill so many people." ”
Suddenly, a chill came to his heart, Su Chen was frightened, but he didn't find anything when he looked around, and said to himself: "Strange, I feel like someone is staring at me." ”
Just after walking a few steps, that kind of cold appeared again, Su Chen looked around again, and looked carefully, but still didn't find anything, and couldn't help but be suspicious.
As he walked forward again, he looked around even more vigilantly, and he genuinely suspected that something was eyeing him.
Sure enough, before he could take a few steps, a strange one appeared.
A humanoid light and shadow appeared in front of him, without a face, not distinguishing between men and women, and could only be called "it", suddenly appearing on the road in front of Su Chen, and slowly approaching him.
"Damn!What the hell!" Su Chen was taken aback, and the sword soul in his body was also restless, as if there was great danger coming.
It walked unhurriedly, and Su Chen retreated while guarding against it, in case it suddenly attacked.
Suddenly, it disappeared, and the next moment it was face to face with Su Chen!
Su Chen's hair suddenly stood on end, and the black and white swords did not wait for him to summon, they directly manifested, and split the humanoid light and shadow, but the light and shadow were like water, allowing the double swords to split, rippling, and the sword soul passed through the body!
It slowly stretched out its "hand" and grabbed Su Chen.
It was impossible for Su Chen to sit still, so he cast a star-hidden step, and dodged when there was no room for it. However, as soon as Su Chen appeared, it appeared in front of him, still coming to arrest him.
"Damn, what the hell are you?" Su Chen was furious, and slapped out, and the "meteor" in his palm galloped, blasting towards the light and shadow.
Just as it had been slashed by the twin swords, the meteor had fallen through it without hurting it in the slightest.
Su Chen's heart was furious, this strange thing ignored his attack, and he could only passively dodge, but the star he relied on the most could not get rid of the humanoid light and shadow without a trace, which made Su Chen even more frightened.
The twin swords returned to protect their bodies, but wherever Su Chen flashed, it appeared wherever it appeared, like a shadow and a maggot attached to the bone, so that Su Chen had no way at all.
