Chapter 2018: Chapter 2017: Secrets of the Heavenly Court
After pondering for a moment, Zhang Xiaohao picked up three substitute puppets and squeezed out three drops of golden blood. The three drops of golden blood flashed and were absorbed by the three substitute puppets.
"Swallow!!!" Zhang Xiaohao lowly growled.
He opened his mouth and swallowed the three substitute puppets in hand. As soon as the three substitute puppets entered his stomach, they went into the Dantian of the Nascent Soul.
"Done! With these three substitute puppets, I have three extra lifelines!" Zhang Xiaohao said with bright eyes.
Eyeing the eight remaining substitute puppets beside him, he flicked his right hand to collect six of them. He then placed the two remaining substitute puppets into the Xuantian Space and Dragon Pattern Space, handing them over to Hei Wuchang and Zixin respectively.
As for Bai Yuee, Zhang Xiaohao thought it over carefully and did not give her a substitute puppet.
Since first meeting her, he always felt Bai Yuee was very mysterious. Initially, she was only at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, but recently, her cultivation had surprisingly broken through to the Nascent Soul Late Stage. The speed was so fast that it even rivaled his.
Furthermore, although Bai Yuee truthfully told Zhang Xiaohao what she knew, there was always something that felt off to him.
For this reason, Zhang Xiaohao did not give her a substitute puppet.
Soon, excited voices from Hei Wuchang and Zixin came from within the Xuantian Space and Dragon Pattern Space.
Zhang Xiaohao used his Divine Thought to chat with them in the two spaces for a while before withdrawing his Divine Thought.
"Interesting! I didn’t expect their reactions to be so intense! If they knew I still have six spare substitute puppets, their expressions would certainly be priceless!" Zhang Xiaohao grinned as he touched his nose.
He flipped his right hand and took out the Spirit Realm Map from the Shennong Ring. Focusing his mind, he immersed his Divine Thought into the jade slip, and quickly identified his location through his viewing.
From Tianqing Giant City eastward, there was a Thunderstorm with an immense range and formidable power, so strong that even a cultivator in the Mahayana Realm wouldn’t dare rashly intrude.
Otherwise, there was a high chance of falling within the Thunderstorm.
According to the map’s records, this Thunderstorm was naturally formed and had existed since the Bi Mu Divine Race, containing ferociously concentrated Thunder Power.
Even Thunder-attribute cultivators dared not enter to cultivate unless they had a death wish.
Ten billion kilometers away from the Thunderstorm stood a metropolis called Purple Extreme Giant City, similar to Tianqing Giant City. Notably, a hundred thousand kilometers west of Purple Extreme Giant City was another metropolis called Purple Thunder Giant City.
Though both Purple Extreme and Purple Thunder are fortified cities of the Bi Mu Divine Eye clan, with similar names differing by just one character, the two cities have been ancestral enemies.
Since the existence of the Bi Mu Divine Race, these two cities have been at odds, engaging in conflicts and city wars, yet the two patriarchs of the Bi Mu Divine Race never interfered excessively, as long as the skirmishes between the two cities were within controllable boundaries.
Because of this, centered around the two cities, they dispatched countless elite armies. Once the opponent showed weakness, they would launch a thunderous attack and seize a piece of flesh from them.
Over the years, Purple Extreme Giant City and Purple Thunder Giant City have been like fire and water; when they meet, it’s nothing but kill or be killed!!!
Putting the map away, a playful smile appeared on Zhang Xiaohao’s face.
"Interesting, who would have thought the two fortified cities are born enemies! They only meet to kill—this can be used." Zhang Xiaohao said, amused.
Suddenly, he felt something move inside the storage bag at his waist.
"Hmm? What’s going on?" Zhang Xiaohao frowned as he spoke.
With a flip of his right hand, he retrieved a mask from his waist storage bag, the very Erlang God’s mask from the Heavenly Court.
Zhang Xiaohao immediately put on the Erlang God’s mask and entered the mask’s spatial field, where a surge of profound information flowed into his mind.
After a while, Zhang Xiaohao retracted his Divine Thought and removed the Erlang God’s mask from his face.
"Interesting! I didn’t expect the Heavenly Court to plan an attack on Purple Extreme Giant City! And in just a month." Zhang Xiaohao squinted as he spoke.
"Something’s off! Although the Heavenly Court is extremely powerful, after the Ancient Battlefield and Tao Pill incidents, they’ve become like rats scorned by everyone. All major powers and top 100 races want to eliminate them. If they act now, are they not afraid of inciting the Bi Mu Divine Race’s retaliation? Despite the Heavenly Court’s might, it pales compared to the old top 100 race like the Bi Mu Divine Race! If full-scale conflict begins, the Heavenly Court is bound to fail." Zhang Xiaohao muttered, frowning.
"Whatever the Heavenly Court’s reason for targeting Purple Extreme Giant City, it’s irrelevant! Since it’s like this, I might as well take a trip there and perhaps benefit from it!" Zhang Xiaohao’s eyes lit up as he spoke.
He flipped his right hand, retrieving a heavenly general’s mask from the Heavenly Court. Based on his current cultivation, he could only wear a heavenly general’s mask within the Heavenly Court’s ranks.
As for the Erlang God’s mask, it was far too advanced. Erlang God was a War God of the Heavenly Court; without sufficient cultivation, wearing the Erlang God’s mask would only invite trouble.
Without delay, Zhang Xiaohao flipped his right hand, summoning the World-purifying Heavenly Fire to refine the heavenly general’s mask in his hand.
After three minutes, the heavenly general’s mask in his hand had been completely refined.
Wearing the heavenly general’s mask, he entered the mask’s spatial field, but despite waiting for a long time, no information came forth.
"Hmm? What’s going on? Could it be this mask is too low-level and can’t access Heavenly Court’s secrets? That must be it!" Zhang Xiaohao thought, catching on.
He took off the heavenly general’s mask, stood up from the bed, and with a thought, the Heavenly Battle Armor transformed into a black scholar’s robe. With a wave of both hands, he collected everything around him.
Whoosh!
After arranging everything, Zhang Xiaohao tapped his foot, activated the Space Law Talent, and directly slipped into the space, heading forward.
Three days later.
Zhang Xiaohao had arrived at the Thunder Ocean, standing in mid-air, watching the endless Thunder Ocean ahead. Countless purple lightning raged within the ocean, sealing the entire sky and earth.
