Chapter 367 The Passage to the Wood God's Palace
"God of Illusion, what do you mean by that?"
What do you mean by "after I leave, you'll all leave too"?
"They've all left, so who's managing such a vast universe?" Zhu Chongjiu asked the Divine Void King in surprise.
"Who manages it? Of course, it's you."
No, that's not right either; it's the subordinates you trained.
"What? You don't mean you're thinking of taking all those people with you when you leave, do you?" Shenxu King retorted to Zhu Chongjiu.
After hearing this, Zhu Chongjiu did not answer aloud, but thought to himself, "Doing this is not impossible."
If I bring two female confidantes home with me, my wife will probably castrate me!
"As long as I can go back, I can come back again. Anyway, everyone's lifespan is unlimited now, we'll see what happens then."
Thinking of this, he said, "What you're saying isn't entirely wrong."
After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu stood up and continued, "Since you are in a hurry to return to the side of the ancient god, I am also in a hurry to go home."
Without further ado, I'll go check out the area outside the Wood God Palace first.
If I can solve it, I'll take care of it while I'm at it.
At this point, Zhu Chongjiu paused, glanced at Shenxu King, and continued to ask:
"I'm curious about something. This third universe is called the 'Proterozoic Eon,' so what are the first and second universes called?"
Furthermore, how do those beings, the ancient gods, communicate with you?
"Hi!
I thought you were going to ask me some questions I couldn't answer. These two things...
My connection with the ancient gods depends on the unseen forces.
In the darkness, I could sense the will of the ancient gods.
I don't know the specifics, but perhaps you'll find out when you reach the Venerable level or higher.
The second universe is called the "Archaic Eon"!
The first universe is called the "Hadesian Eon"!
One month after the gathering of Zhu Chongjiu, Shenxu Wang, and others.
Zhu Chongjiu was standing on a piece of land in the Wood God Immortal Palace.
"Senior Mu Zu, what exactly is suppressed beneath this passage?"
"Young friend, I don't know the answer to your question either."
With my strength, I was only able to suppress it thanks to the formations left behind by the ancient gods.
Therefore, I have not personally explored the other end of the passage.
A day later, the entire Wood God Palace trembled. A dense green wood law enveloped the entire planet, making it impossible to see what was happening inside the Wood God Palace.
A vortex covering an area of approximately ten million square meters appeared before Zhu Chongjiu the instant Mu Zu activated the formation.
Inside the vortex, dark clouds churned, and a strong aura of evil swept over us.
With a wave of his hand, Zhu Chongjiu protected the Wood Ancestor in his soul form.
Otherwise, the Wood Ancestor, in his soul form, would have been blown away by this overwhelming evil aura in an instant.
Looking at everything before him, Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "Actually, he still had many questions that he didn't ask the Divine Void King to answer."
This includes the other world outside these suppressed passages.
They can all trust me, a Venerable-level being, to handle this. With the strength of those beings, they probably wouldn't even need to lift a finger; a single thought would be enough to obliterate it.
If that's the case, why do I have to resolve everything before I can go home?
Is this the final test before going home?
The more Zhu Chongjiu thought about it, the more confused he became. Suddenly, he leaped into the passage ahead and sank into it.
"Senior Mu Zu, please leave this place and reset the formation."
"If I don't come out within a year, immediately send a telepathic message to the Divine Void King and tell him to come here."
Zhu Chongjiu's aura had completely disappeared, leaving only a voice echoing in Mu Zu's ears.
"Such profound spacetime power! If I could reach this level, I could move freely even within the cosmic clouds where one can comprehend any law."
At this moment, Zhu Chongjiu, upon seeing the laws of spacetime, seemed to have forgotten the overwhelming evil aura emanating from him.
However, just as he was about to properly comprehend the laws of space and time here, his body suddenly felt light and he appeared in another world.
Looking up, a passageway identical to the one inside the Wood God Palace was reflected in the dark red sky.
After landing here, Zhu Chongjiu sensed the aura of the laws here.
There was nothing there but evil.
"What kind of creature is controlling this world?" Zhu Chongjiu muttered to himself.
As he rose to fly into the distance in search of the creatures of this world, an evil aura, countless times stronger than the air itself, approached him.
"It's here, that's good, saves me the trouble of looking for it," Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself.
"You are... a human?"
"What are you doing here? Did those old guys send you to take me away?"
In an instant, the creature arrived in front of Zhu Chongjiu and began speaking to him in human language.
"A giant black tiger with wings on its back, I wasn't wrong after all." Looking at the colossal beast that stood tall and imposing before him, Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself before speaking aloud.
“It doesn’t matter who I am.
As for what you said, was it those old guys who sent me to take you away?
I guess so.
Although I don't know if the old guys you're talking about are the same group of people I have in mind.
Upon hearing this, the giant beast continued to speak in human language: "Then there's nothing more to say."
I haven't eaten for millions of years.
Especially someone like you, a person of unclean character.
After saying that, the giant beast opened its huge mouth and bit down on Zhu Chongjiu, who was still on the ground.
"and many more!"
A roar snapped the head off the giant beast that was already halfway through its charge.
"What's the meaning?
"It's too late to surrender now!" After saying this, the giant beast was about to bite Zhu Chongjiu again.
When Zhu Chongjiu arrived, seeing that the other party seemed to have no patience to give him a chance to speak, he angrily said, "Do you think you're the only one who can fight?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Chongjiu, who was originally only seven feet tall, instantly transformed into a being that could stand shoulder to shoulder with that giant beast.
Not only that, Zhu Chongjiu continued to grow larger as time went by.
In an instant, it transformed into a true giant with its head reaching the sky and its feet firmly planted on the ground.
"I'll break all your teeth if you bite me before I can finish speaking."
Zhu Chongjiu, who had transformed into a giant, radiated a gentle golden light.
He stretched out his two giant hands and forcefully pried open the beast's mouth, one above and one below.
"Impossible, how can you be so strong?"
"How do you react to my evil?" the giant beast asked in terror, seeing how easily it had subdued the other party.
"evil?
Your evil is nothing but a superficial and childish act. In my three thousand dreams, there exist beings a hundred times more evil than you.
Having said that, Zhu Chongjiu had already pried the giant beast's mouth open to its maximum extent.
Seeing this, Zhu Chongjiu took out his great sword, transformed it to the perfect size, and placed it into the giant beast's mouth.
Given the sharpness of the greatsword, the giant beast wouldn't dare to even consider closing it if it didn't want a hole punched in its head.
Seeing that it would never be able to escape if it didn't run, the giant beast immediately flapped its huge black wings, trying to flee.
As for the magical weapon stuck in my mouth, we'll have to deal with that later.
"Trying to run away...?"
However, things didn't go as planned. The moment the giant beast flapped its wings, Zhu Chongjiu flipped over it, grabbed its neck from the side, and ended up riding on its back.
From then on, the painful cries of agony echoed throughout this unknown little world.
Half an hour passed.
The giant beast, which once had fangs as sharp as knives, was now lying motionless on the ground with its mouth full of blood.
"Serves you right for calling me unclean, now look what happened."
Besides, I'll cut your tongue out too.
"My uncleanliness refers to a person's evil aura."
Some people are always good or always evil, while others are sometimes good and sometimes evil.
"Humans like you, who possess both good and evil, are rare." The giant beast, with its teeth pulled and a greatsword stuck in its mouth, could only communicate with Zhu Chongjiu telepathically.
After hearing the explanation, Zhu Chongjiu said to the giant beast somewhat embarrassedly, "Look at the mess you've made."
You should have said so earlier! If you had explained it clearly, you wouldn't have suffered so much.
"Wouldn't it have been enough to just give you a quick death?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the great sword that had been obediently stuck in the giant beast's mouth suddenly disappeared.
When it reappeared, it was already in Zhu Chong's hand again.
At this moment, a huge hole appeared on the top of the giant beast's head.
Moreover, foul-smelling, dark red blood was still gushing out of the hole.
"His strength is about the same as that of the Black Candle Beast that the Nine Heavens Immortal Venerable killed before."
The teeth of this divine beast are truly valuable; they are top-tier materials for both weapons and shields. We'll take them back and leave them to the Ancient God Alliance as part of their reserves.
It also has a pair of wings, and fur...!
Zhu Chongjiu has essentially returned to his old profession from the Cangshen Realm.
After much effort, they managed to remove all the useful parts from the giant beast.
After doing all this, Zhu Chongjiu looked up and gazed at the world around him once more.
"No, we can't just leave like this."
Although the behemoth is dead, the abundance of evil in this world remains a significant threat.
Oh well, anyway, I made a one-year agreement with Mu Zu before I came in, and it's only been less than a day.
Let me purify it.
Afterwards, using this place as a secret base for the Proterozoic Eon would also be a good option.
After saying this, Zhu Chongjiu sat cross-legged in this world, and the aura of the "Wanfa Dao" slowly flowed out from his body.
If anyone were here right now, they would see that the world before them is evolving at a visible speed toward becoming the most habitable place for humans.
