Outside Universe City’s gates, it was a chaotic scene. Hundreds of billions of
Divine Runemasters were rushing in, some even killing the others in front of them.
“Get lost! ”
Their tyrannical power came crashing down from behind.
The few Divine Runemasters who couldn’t dodge in time were caught off guard and were sent flying by the force.
One of them with a low-level divine rune died on the spot.
“Damn it!”
‘ How despicable! They actually launched a sneak attack!”
r
lWvo Divine Runemasters got up from the ground and glared at the people behind them.
“Good dogs don’t block the way, and weak chickens should obediently hide behind ! ”
A tall creature whose entire body was covered in rocks walked over in the air with disrespectful steps.
The two Divine Runemasters glanced at his cultivation base and immediately went to the side obediently.
In the end, strength represented everything in the universe.
“Lead the way!”
Yu Hao followed the others into Universe City with Diqin Naxi following closely behind him.
Gu Changqing was no longer here. Thus, Diqin Naxi chose a direction and flew away.
A few Divine Divine Runemasters who had been staring at her from the moment they entered the door smiled sinisterly as they followed after her. However, they didn’t expect that after taking a few steps, a tree branch would suddenly grow out and pierce through their bodies, ending their lives.
Universe City was so big that it was like an independent world. Gu Changqing restrained his aura and flew high in the sky like a beam of light.
This world was far more dilapidated and desolate than he had imagined. Other than the ferocious beasts that ran amok everywhere, there wasn’t even a blade of grass on the ground.
Were there no other living beings in here other than the space beasts?
Whoosh!
All of a sudden, a black and white bird-shaped beast in the distance raised its blue claws and let out a long cry, charging straight at Gu Changqing from above.
puff!
When it was still a thousand feet away from Gu Changqing, the beast seemed to have suddenly hit an invisible wall.
Immediately, a bloody mess fell from the sky. The bloody smell immediately attracted dozens of beasts to roar.
Looking at the beasts on the ground who were wolfing down on the bird beast’s remains. Gu Changqing then pointed his finger, making more than a dozen other beasts explode into balls of blood aura.
More than ten-colored divine rune energies floated at the spot where they died just now.
“As expected, the deeper you go, the stronger the beasts’ divine rune powers!”
Gu Changqing casually threw away the energy left behind by the beasts and continued to fly into the distance.
He had guessed wrong. Although Universe City had no sun or moon, it still had darkness. The dark sky soon descended, and the lifeless land became deathly silent.
Even the space beasts that wandered around during the day hid. It was as if there was some terrifying existence in the night, forcing them to hide.
However, the darkness couldn’t stop Gu Changqing’s divine sense.
After sensing that Zhang Hil and the others were still active. he also noticed a
building in the wilderness not far away. He immediately sped up and flew over.
The world within Universe City seemed to have a completely different universal law from the outside world.
For example, a wormhole couldn’t be opened here. After Gu Changqing entered the Transcendent Realm, he had already escaped a certain spatial limit. However, this wasn’t useful in the city.
He could only fly obediently the entire time, which made him a little unhappy. In the wilderness, the Gobi Desert appeared within his divine sense.
In the middle of it, there was a lone tower. What surprised Gu Changqing was that in that place, there were actually no beasts. Could it be that there was something special about this place?
Gu Changqing locked his divine sense onto the tower.
The tower was only three stories tall, and it exuded an ancient aura.
Ding… Ding..
The sound of wind chimes suddenly rang out in the quiet Gobi Desert.
Gu Changqing frowned. There was no wind at this time, so why would the wind chimes ring?
There must be something mysterious about this building.
He flew to its bottom and walked inside after looking around.
This was the tower’s first floor. Unlike the dark desert outside, the tower’s inside was a space of its own.
Cold and sinister- This was Gu Changqing’s first impression.
Although it wasn’t as large as the Time Box, it was still a few hundred galaxies wide. After some sensing, he finally found something that made him slightly interested.
In the treacherous space, two dark eyes slowly opened.
Staring at Gu Changqing who had barged in, it quietly surrounded his body, as if it was weaving a cage to capture him inside.
“A slightly stronger beast?”
Behind Gu Changqing, the Tai Chi Diagram appeared and instantly lit up the first floor. In front of him, a black space beast that was tens of thousands of feet long quietly hovered in the air.
Roar!
It seemed that the beast had been in the dark space for too long and was extremely uncomfortable with the sudden light.
It opened its bloody mouth, and two tentacles covered in spikes danced wildly at the corners inside.
“A catfish?”
Gu Changqing sized up the beast. Not only did he not find it ugly and evil, but he felt that it was a little cute.
“Unfortunately, my Hong Ling is much prettier than you, so you can go to hell!”
The tendrils at the beast’s mouth drew hundreds of millions of dim lights, almost completely covering the space around Gu Changqing.
Roar!
In the next moment, the twin dragons flew out of the Tai Chi Diagram behind Gu Changqing. Their bodies instantly expanded to 10,000 feet in size. The dense dark light was dispersed by the flowing runes on their body.
Suddenly, the catfish-like beast wailed. It looked at Gu Changqing and the two dragons, full of fear.
“It seems that the ghostly light is its source of power.”
With a thought, the two dragons attacked together. The beast was crushed by the them almost effortlessly.
Afterward, only a fist-sized light ball was left in the space.
Without waiting for Gu Changqing to go forward to investigate, the black dragon poured the light ball into its mouth.
Subsequently, a strange mysterious feeling surged in Gu Changqing’s heart.
“It’s the power ot darkness, but it’s not pure enough. However, it’s still useful.”
When the two dragons returned to the diagram, Gu Changqing noticed that his potential index had increased a little.
Although it was only by one star, it wasn’t easy for Gu Changqing to increase his potential index in his current level.
Even if he used resources enough to fill this whole space, it wouldn’t be enough.
However, just by absorbing this bit of dark power, there was an improvement. He looked forward to the next floor. Unlike the first floor, the second one was a world of light.
He still effortlessly killed the space beast on this floor, which was a giant lizard that could change its color according to the light.
After killing the lizard, he obtained a ball of white light power. The gray dragon from the Tai Chi Diagram swallowed it, increasing Gu Changqing’s potential index by one star.
Sensing the entrance to the third floor, Gu Changqing walked in. It was a very ordinary room. This should be the tower’s real peak.
On the top, there was an eternal gem embedded inside it, illuminating everything in the room. In the middle of the space, there was an ancient stone platform..
