Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 535: Chapter 535: Insect Type Ghost Beasts

It has opened!

The Dark Red Door of the Ancient Star Tomb has finally opened!!

Amidst the scattered clusters of celestial light, the eyes of countless cultivators grew fervent.

Everyone’s blood boiled, and they eagerly rubbed their palms, wishing they could rush over immediately.

Entering that great door was equivalent to embarking on a fantastic journey of unparalleled opportunities.

Not only could they obtain the cultivation techniques and magic treasures inherited from the Ancient Clan, but if they had the chance to slay the remnants of the Dragon Clan, they would also receive the supreme reward from the Eternal Divine Hall!

It was simply a win-win!

No cultivator... could resist such temptation!

This was especially true for cultivators in the Divine Monarch Realm.

As for cultivators in the Divine Sovereign Realm, some were naturally intrigued as well.

Under the stimulus of dual rewards, they too would choose to take risks.

However, there were also cultivators in the Divine King Realm present. These individuals were extremely cautious and, for the most part, would not enter the Ancient Star Tomb.

After all, reaching the Divine King Realm was an incredibly arduous achievement, attained only after enduring long years and countless difficulties.

If they were to unfortunately perish in that place, it would be an unbearable injustice.

Ye Yun remained calm, watching the Dark Red Door slowly open, feeling no sense of urgency.

Yoga Godlord turned, his expression grave, and addressed the disciples within their vessel in a solemn voice, ”The Ancient Star Tomb is fraught with peril. We must act in unison and not get separated.”

”Understood, Master!”

The disciples of the Yoga Master Palace replied loudly in unison.

Hearing Yoga Godlord’s words, the hearts of the disciples from the Supreme Forgetful Love Palace grew heavy with apprehension.

This was especially true for Clear Heavenly Lord and Moon Heavenly Lord. Having cultivated to the Divine Sovereign Realm, they naturally felt a degree of unease at the thought of their cultivation base being suppressed to the Divine Monarch Realm upon entry.

However, gazing at the white figure before them, who stood like a primeval God Mountain that had witnessed the dawn of creation, eternally unchanging, the two women instantly felt a renewed sense of security.

With Master here, what is there to fear?

Although Master will also have his cultivation base suppressed, one must not forget that his Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path was inherited from the Ancient Star Tomb and possesses unimaginable power.

Furthermore, Master possesses the Divine-level treasure, the Vajra Hammer, which is so powerful that even an expert at the First Level of the God King Realm cannot withstand it.

Inside the Ancient Star Tomb, even if his cultivation base is suppressed to the Divine Monarch Realm, I doubt anyone at that level could pose a threat to Master.

...

Ye Yun, with his back to his disciples, was naturally unaware of the thoughts passing through Clear Heavenly Lord’s and Moon Heavenly Lord’s minds.

He was merely waiting silently for the Ancient Star Tomb to open.

The Dark Red Door, after what felt like dozens of breaths, finally swung fully open.

As the two massive portals opened completely, an indescribable, putrid odor surged violently from within.

”Charge!”

It was unclear who shouted it first.

Immediately, more than ten Celestial Boats surged forward, unable to wait any longer.

FIZZ! FIZZ!

The protective layer of light enveloping these Celestial Boats rapidly dissipated upon contact with the decaying aura.

”Not good!”

The cultivators controlling the Celestial Boats were aghast. They hastily maneuvered their vessels to retreat, narrowly averting disaster.

HA HA HA...

Bursts of derisive laughter echoed from the surroundings.

That decaying aura, seeping from the depths of the Ancient Star Tomb, had been swirling at its entrance for several hundred thousand years and possessed unimaginable prowess.

If one were to recklessly confront it, they would easily meet a grim end, their vessel destroyed and all hands lost.

Such a shallow understanding!

A God King Expert, hands clasped behind his back, remarked with a faint smile.

Without sufficient background knowledge, one would naturally be unaware of the true power of this decaying aura.

That was why the first group to charge in had suffered such a harsh lesson.

Fortunately, those cultivators were not weak, and though their vessels were damaged, no lives were lost.

The decaying aura drifted into the Yao Guang Galaxy and was soon dispersed by the stellar winds.

”Let’s go!”

At this moment, a God King Expert waved his hand, maneuvering his Celestial Boat forward.

He halted before the Dark Red Door, then activated his mana, sending all the disciples from his Celestial Boat through the portal.

Once they were sent in, this God King Expert retreated into the turbulent galaxy. He then took out a magic treasure, placing it above his head, and settled into a cross-legged meditative posture to wait quietly.

The brilliant and tempestuous currents of the galaxy could not affect these God King Experts, at least not in a short period.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Streaks of light flew into the great door.

Some Celestial Boats, led by Mighty ones in God-honored realm, plunged directly into the great door without any pause.

For these cultivators in the Divine Sovereign Realm, they too sought the supreme opportunities within the Ancient Star Tomb and thus had to enter this door.

At this moment, Ye Yun also maneuvered his Celestial Boat, transforming it into a streak of light that plunged directly into the Dark Red Door.

Upon entering the great door, their vision became a blur of chaos. Before anyone could comprehend the situation, a powerful teleportation force descended upon the Celestial Boat instantaneously.

This...?

Sensing this potent teleportation force, a flicker of shock appeared in Ye Yun’s eyes.

When this teleportation force descended, it split into innumerable streams, each engulfing a disciple and instantly teleporting them away.

Ye Yun, relying on his formidable physique, managed to resist for a few seconds. He swiftly recalled the Celestial Boat just before he too vanished with the teleportation force.

「The stars shifted.」

The next moment, Ye Yun found himself on a mountaintop enveloped in black fog.

At that moment, he was alone on the mountaintop.

Ye Yun stood silently, surveying his surroundings, his expression somewhat grim.

The method of entry into the Ancient Star Tomb had changed.

According to Yoga Godlord, upon entering the Ancient Star Tomb, there should have been no teleportation force; one should have been able to fly directly into the tomb after passing through the great door.

But now... there was an additional teleportation force.

This teleportation force was random, scattering everyone.

This meant no group of cultivators could remain together.

In the initial stages, everyone would have to face the terrifying Ghost Beasts of the Ancient Star Tomb alone.

BUZZ! BUZZ!

From the depths of the surrounding black fog, a strange buzzing sound suddenly arose.

The sound was faint at first, but it grew progressively louder, eventually surging forward like a tsunami.

Ye Yun’s gaze sharpened, and he immediately spotted a tide of black insects converging within the distant black fog.

These creatures resembled beetles, with ferocious appearances and bodies covered in a layer of black armor adorned with sharp spikes. Each insect was the size of a millstone and emanated the terrifying aura of the Divine Monarch Realm.

These were indeed the Insect Type Ghost Beasts.

This was not the only kind of Insect Type Ghost Beast; what Ye Yun had encountered was merely one variety among many.

These Insect Type Ghost Beasts were incredibly numerous, too many to count, and all possessed cultivation bases at the Divine Monarch Realm.

Ye Yun quickly assessed his cultivation base, only to discover it had been suppressed to the Sixth Level of the Divine Monarch Realm.

Fortunately, it’s not the First Level of the Divine Monarch Realm.

Ye Yun chuckled softly.

WHOOSH!

Gazing at the overwhelming swarm of Insect Type Ghost Beasts, nine dazzling Divine Halos immediately materialized behind his head.

The Divine Halos hummed, their divine aura circulating with immense momentum.

Regardless of whether anyone was watching, Ye Yun had to maintain the demeanor of the Supreme God Sovereign perfectly.

He didn’t want to reveal any flaws in his disguise.

SWISH!

One of the Divine Halos suddenly shot out, rapidly expanding to an immense size, encompassing the surrounding space as it spun at high speed around Ye Yun.

Within Ye Yun’s eyes, innumerable, star-like, arcane runes materialized.

At that instant, he activated the Sky Exterminating Phantom Eye.

The Insect Type Ghost Beasts advanced like a world-ending deluge, their momentum seemingly unstoppable as they surged forward.

Yet, they were now blocked by the spinning Divine Halo and could not advance even a fraction. Any Ghost Beast that touched the Divine Halo was instantly incinerated, turning to ash.
