After a long time, Zhong Yue finally couldn’t find anymore mistakes, he nodded his head satisfyingly and said while smiling, “Should be fine now! Guys, we can move now.”
Be it Tian Yanzhong or Gu Hongzi, none of them had any good feelings about it. Even Qiu Jin’er felt her confidence in Zhong Yue waver for the first time.
Tian Mo Concubine blinked and turned toward Bai Canghai, “Senior martial brother of the Bai Zhe Clan, what do you think of this teleportation array formation?”
Bai Canghai hesitated for a second before saying, “I don’t think it’s reliable…”
“Oh, then we should be good!" Tian Mo Concubine and the others suddenly felt reassured and the experts all strode into array formation.
Bai Canghai was speechless, he braced himself and walked into the array formation. He was still mumbling, “But I really do think it’s unreliable…”
Zhong Yue heard Bai Canghai and was relaxed as well, he thought, With Brother Canghai words, we are halfway to success already!
He left four insect magnates behind to power the teleportation array formation while the others stood inside of it, waiting for the array formation to be activated.
“Not good!" Gu Hongzi suddenly said, “The insect race is closing in!”
From afar, they could see the insect experts swarming in along with waves of godly auras coming from behind the swarming insects!
Fang Jiange’s face turned solemn, “The insect gods are here for us as well. Junior Martial Brother Zhong, quick, the teleportation portal!”
Zhong Yue immediately ordered the four insect magnates to power the array formation. The totem patterns on the divine gold pillars shone brightly and linked the pillars together. Marvelous totem patterns also emerged all over on the ground.
The totem patterns shone brighter and suddenly, a beam of light ray shot up into the sky. The experts were shrouded in the light rays as the beam carried them through the atmosphere!
“It worked!”
Zhong Yue was overjoyed, the experts all were relaxed. The light rays shrouded them in and shot them up into the sky at an increasingly faster speed!
At this rate, they will soon be able to travel through the Pure Yang lightning zone and exit the insect planet into the space!
Bai Canghai felt relieved, he said while smiling, “Senior Martial Brother Zhong’s teleportation array isn’t too bad…”
“Shut up!" Tian Mo Concubine, Saint Concubine and the others tensed their nerves and shouted.
Qiu Jin’er’s face also changed, she mumbled, “Senior Martial Brother Bai is praising again, I hope nothing bad happens…”
Zhong Yue was also worried. Suddenly, Xin Huo remembered something and asked, “Brat Yue, did you do any spatial localization to the teleportation portal?”
Zhong Yue was puzzled, he said, “What spatial localization?”
“This is a teleportation array formation, of course you have to designate a destination." Xin Huo scratched his head and mumbled, “Didn’t I teach you how to do it? The【Great Cosmic Localization Art】is a subsidiary art to the【Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scripture】, its main use is to locate the position of a point in space. It is of utmost importance.”
“No, you didn’t!" Cold sweat burst out of Zhong Yue’s forehead as he said, “What’s gonna happen without it?”
Xin Huo thought about it and replied, “Without it, the teleportation process will end at a random position. It might be a black hole, or the nucleus of a star. You may be transported other places like the stomach of an insect god, anything really. All in all, the result will be unpredictable. Are you sure I didn’t teach you the【Great Cosmic Localization Art】?”
Zhong Yue shouted in anger, “You definitely didn’t!”
Xin Huo cleared his throat and said diffidently, “Hm, by the looks of it, this teleportation array formation won’t go into the stomach of an insect god, so at least that’s that. The teleportation beam is moving out from the insect planet, there aren’t any black holes around or any stars. I think you can relax for a bit…”
Zhong Yue’s clothes were soaked with his cold sweat, he looked out of the light beam and found them now already out from the insect planet. They were now somewhere in the boundless space, he mumbled, “Can Brother Canghai really be the Comet Innate Spirit Body, everything occurs in opposition to what he says…?”
Clearly, something was wrong with the teleportation portal he built. The teleportation beam was now sending them flying in circles.
Zhong Yue’s face turned gloomy, he thought, My understanding of the time and space totem patterns are really still too shallow… This teleportation array is still not complete yet….
Suddenly, the light beam shuddered and Zhong Yue was shocked; something was affecting the teleportation array formation!
The experts in the teleportation beam were also shocked, they could feel their ends catching up to them. Qiu Jin’er immediately turned to Bai Canghai and said, “Senior Martial Brother Bai, say something!”
“Say what?" Bai Canghai was bewildered.
“The worse the better!" The experts shouted in unison.
“I think we are all going to die!" Bai Canghai shouted out loud.
…
Beside the teleportation array formation, the insect experts swarmed into array formation. The four insect magnates that Zhong Yue had left behind weren’t able to stop so many insect experts, and in just seconds, tens of thousands of insect experts entered the teleportation array formation!
The teleportation array formation was already unstable in the first place — it was already at its limit teleporting Zhong Yue and the experts. And now, as the many insect experts swarmed into the teleportation array formation, it caused the array formation to start breaking down.
“Teleportation array formation? Brats!”
Suddenly, an insect god flew over. He landed beside the teleportation formation and swung his sleeves. Immediately, the insect experts around were pushed away from the array formation. The insect god shouted, “Get out of my way!”
As of this moment, the teleportation array formation already crumbled. The divine gold pillars collapsed and were reduced to dust while the four insect magnates that powered the array formation were also repelled out from the center.
The array formation broke down and the insect experts fell from the sky. It looked like as though there was an insect rain showering down from the sky. In just these few moments of time, there were countless insect experts that been transported into the lightning zone and with the array formation breaking down now, the insect experts fallen from the sky.
At this instant, the sounds of thunder and the sparks of lightning strikes filled the heaven and earth. The dark side of the insect planet was bright as day as the lightnings struck unceasingly at the insect experts.
An ear deafening dragon whistle came from the center of the Pure Yang lightning zone. An ocean of lightnings filled the sky and a terrifyingly huge dragon god was formed within the lightning ocean. It let out a long whistle and in just a swing of the tail, countless insect experts perished away.
“Shit, I’m still one second later," the insect god was piqued in anger, he glanced at the broken array formation and said, “These little insects overloaded the array formation, now even I can’t find where they are. Bugs, you little bugs that couldn’t help but sabotaged my plan instead!”
He sneered frigidly and the insect experts around him spurted out a mouth of blood.
“The Ancestral Star Qi Practitioners know how to install a teleportation array formation? Such an array, is it really possible for Qi Practitioners to learn?”
The four insect magnates Zhong Yue left behind struggled to get up and they lunged toward that insect god.
The insect god smirked and opened his mouth, sucking the four insect magnates into his mouth. After that, he raised his head and look up into the sky, he stared at the lightning ocean and the lighting dragon god in it with a pair of eyes filled i
n fear.
The lightning ocean was wholly formed by the Pure Yang lightnings, the Leize dragon god soaring in it was of great threat to him. Even a strong god like him wouldn’t dare to pass through the lightning ocean directly and go head on with the Leize dragon god.
Thankfully, with the insect experts in the Pure Yang lightning zone completely eliminated, the Leize dragon god and the lightning ocean slowly disappeared.
“They just been teleported away, they wouldn’t be too far.”
The insect god waited for the lightnings to disappear and he leaped into the sky. He sneered coldly and said, “The teleportation process will leave behind traces, as long as I can grasp that trace, I can find them! Keep on dreaming kids, there’s no way you all can slip through my fingers!”
He was after all a god, he tracked on the trace and reached to the outer space very quickly. But moments later, the insect god’s face turned dark and gloomy.
“What a shitty teleportation array formation this is. It brings me round and round in circles, what is this, a circus?”
The insect god was incensed, he flew for over a million miles and yet, the teleportation beam was just randomly flying in the space, it wasn’t even heading toward a destination!
Without a set direction, that means Zhong Yue and the others could be teleported to anywhere!
In this endless space, how could one ever find them at all?
“Do you even know how a teleportation array formation works?" the insect god was cursing, he searched around and regrettably lost track of the traces anymore. And he continued searching for another few more moments before completely giving up.
“The one who places the array formation, he must be an idiot who doesn’t even know what he is doing!" the insect god cursed.
…
In the endless space, at the moment the teleportation array formation broken down, the teleportation light beam disappeared as well. Zhong Yue and company were uncontrollably swung into the space and crash into a straw hat-like star.
This straw hat-like star was the sixth planet, there was a huge ring formed from asteroids, stardust and ice surrounding it, and also over seventy little stars were orbiting around it.
“Are we going to crash into the stars and be stuck there forever…" Bai Canghai lamented, before he could continue talking, those around him and already covered his mouth. The experts were looking at the star ring as they drew closer to it.
Fang Jiange, Gu Hongzi, Zhong Yue and the others started launching skills to the front, hoping that the force would slow them down. After a very long time, their speed finally decreased, but at this rate, they would still crash right through the stars and made to dust!
Chapter 522: The Beautiful And … |
Suddenly, their course was offset and they evaded the rocky star. Gu Hongzi cast out a spider-like insect magnate and controlled it to form a huge net around them and to shoot out a spidersilk toward the rocky star.
The insect magnate clenched his teeth on the spidersilk and held hard on it, this greatly slowed the speed of the experts but the insect magnate’s divine gold teeth were starting to break off.
Moments later, they finally came to a stop, while that insect magnate had fainted from the overbearing pain.
Gu Hongzi kept the insect magnate while the experts flew toward that rocky star. They stood above it and heaved a breath of relief, needless to say, this was an experience none of them would like to go through again.
It was too terrifying and too unpredictable, no one could tell what would happen next.
“That should be the Celestial Earth Star," Fang Jiange thought, he looked at the huge planet and said, “If the Earth Innate Spirit Body is here, he would be able to cultivate at an incredible speed, but what a shame…”
He shook his head, the Earth Innate Spirit Body was Feng Wuji, the traitor to the human race and the current high priest of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race. Back in the days, Feng Wuji was the closest friend Fang Jiange had ever had, but all of that changed once Feng Wuji revealed his true colors.
Tian Yanzhong said abruptly, “The next planet will be the Celestial Wood Star, Junior Martial Sister Qiu is the Innate Wood Spirit Body, if she can cultivate on the Celestial Wood Star, it would be very beneficial to her!”
However, Qiu Jin’er shook her head and said, “The Celestial Wood Star is the territory of the Kun Peng Celestial Race, we can’t enter it. Furthermore, it’s too far from us now, and the Ancestral Star is even further than that. Just how long would it take to fly back to Ancestral Star?”
The experts sighed, such a distance would require a full ten years before they arrived back on the Ancestral Star. By then, the air in their Yuan Shen secret realms would have long been depleted and they would die of suffocation.
Zhong Yue cleared his throat, he said, “Jin’er, did you forget my teleportation array formations?”
As he spoke, a cold chill was traveled down the spines of the experts.
They were teleported once, and once was more than enough to terrify their weak hearts. If they were to make a list of things they fear of, Zhong Yue’s teleportation array formation would surely be listed in it.
“The pathway that links the insect planet and Ancestral Star is still there and our gods took a great hit. We don’t know when would the insect race arrive at the Ancestral Star and we are trapped here on our own." Bai Canghai sighed and mumbled, “The Ancestral Star is on the verge of total destruction.”
The experts turned solemn, no one asked him to shut up this time as what he said was all fact. Although they survived the insect planet, the other over three thousand Qi Practitioners and ten gods didn’t!
The Ancestral Star only had fewer than 30 gods to begin with. If over 10 of them were lost in the insect planet expedition, how could the rest of the gods fight against the insect gods?
Furthermore, even if Zhong Yue and the other experts somehow made it flying back to the Ancestral Star, that would be at least 10 years later already.
By that time, the insect race would have already been on the Ancestral Star for 10 years. The fate of their people at that time could only be imagined.
“Wait, we can make use of the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis and power a star toward the Ancestral Star." Zhong Yue thought and he suggested, “The Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis can move such a huge planet like the insect planet, then it can surely move a small star faster than the insect planet. With the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis, we will be able to reach to the Ancestral Star!”
Gu Hongzi mulled and he said, “This might work … Junior Martial Brother Bai, you keep your mouth shut!”
Bai Canghai who was just going to speak quickly kept quiet as he heard Gu Hongzi.
Zhong Yue immediately removed a Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis from the copper lamp and suddenly, Saint Concubine said, “Dar … darling, if you can use the Flowery Corpse God Chrysalis to move the little stars, can you move some toward the insect planet?”
Zhong Yue nodded, “Of course I can, but I’ll first to calculate the course of the insect planet. Wait a second, you mean…”
His heart shuddered as he immediately understood what Saint Concubine was hinting at. If a small star were to crash into the insect planet, although it wasn’t possible to destroy the whole insect planet, it can surely wipe out most of the insect experts. Even the insect gods wouldn’t be able to survive if they were hit directly!
Most importantly, they might just be able to aim at the mother queen’s mouth pathway and break it away!
Zhong Yue’s heart was thumping but Qiu Jin’er shook her head and said, “But how are we going to calculate the speed and course of the insect planet? Not only that, we still have to calculate the speed and direction of the small star. There can’t be a single mistake or they would slip past one another. It’s too hard to do that.”
Although the insect planet was large, it was still just like a little sesame seed in this endless universe. To hit a flying sesame seed with an even smaller fl
ying sesame was definitely easier said than done.
“I can do that!" Rays flashed across Zhong Yue’s eyes, he turned to Xin Huo in his psyche ocean and asked, “Xin Huo, can the【Great Cosmic Localization Art】calculate the course and speed the insect planet?”
Xin Huo nodded while Zhong Yue quickly said, “Teach me, I want to repay the insect race with a huge present!”
“It’s not easy to learn the【Great Cosmic Localization Art】, even though it is just a subsidiary art to the【Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Art】, it’s still incredibly complex. You would need at least half a year…" Xin Huo suddenly stopped and proceeded in imparting the【Great Cosmic Localization Art】to Zhong Yue.
He thought, I told him that he would need a year or two to learn the【Time Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Art】and he built a teleportation in two months. I’d better not say too much this time, else I’d be humiliated if this brat learnt it in a day or two…
The【Great Cosmic Localization Art】was indeed complex. The stars and planets in the universe changes every second, they were all constantly moving around and it was hard to locate the exact position of any of the astronomical bodies. This was because the lights you see now might be the light emitted from the stars a thousand or even a million years ago. The star itself could have long disappeared by the time its light reached you.
During the intergalactic teleportation, one would to calculate the precise location of the teleportation endpoint. The theories and principles involved were incredibly complex and actually calculating it was even harder. If the destination was too far, the calculation even have to take in the factors around the environments along the teleportation path.
After ten days, Zhong Yue stood up and opened his divine third eye. He looked toward the insect planet and surged his psyche out. Little blinking lights appeared around him and the solar system was visualized by him, the insect planet could be seen only quite a distance away from the Ancestral Star.
