Chapter 343: Chapter 328: The Abnormal Teleportation Array
"The teleportation array to the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos wasn’t erased?"
Wang Xu and Lu Chen exchanged a glance, seeing deep suspicion and doubt in each other’s eyes.
Impossible, if the teleportation array to the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos wasn’t erased, how could the disciples of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion be unable to transmit out of the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos?
Moreover, not only the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, but also the Mercenary Martial Arts Hall, Cosmic Alliance, and many geniuses from the Immortal Cosmic Country were trapped in the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos... Could it be that they all conspired to deceive him?
"How could it be possible? Would deceiving me benefit them in the slightest? Why would they do such a thing?"
Wang Xu’s mind raced, pondering deeply.
Lei Fan also furrowed his brows at this time: "The teleportation array to Wu Meng wasn’t erased? Was the little kid playing tricks on me? But it doesn’t seem like the nature of that kid, is there a need for it?"
Indeed, is there a need for it?
Wang Xu reached a conclusion in his heart.
"Qi Gu, let’s go to the teleportation array first to take a look, and then visit the Hall Master later." As Wang Xu spoke, without giving Qi Gu and the others a chance to respond, he flew away swiftly, turning into a black speck on the horizon in the blink of an eye.
"Let’s go check it out too." Lei Fan and Lu Chen followed closely.
Wang Xu had been to the teleportation array leading to the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos once, it wasn’t too far.
Because of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion’s closure, most disciples had already returned to the pavilion, significantly more Celestial God Realm disciples were present now than when Wang Xu had just arrived.
"The vigilance of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion’s disciples has reached such a level." Flying along the path, as Wang Xu passed by many Palace Mansions of the pavilion’s disciples, they all grew wary at the sight of his approaching figure, like startled lions, glaring at him unfavorably.
The weaker ones even raised layer upon layer of defensive energy arrays, encasing their Palace Mansions inside and out.
About half an hour later.
"We’ve arrived." Wang Xu reached the site of the old teleportation array. The vast array was now bustling with over a dozen Heaven-Reaching Pavilion disciples, all looking anxious, eager to leave this place where they could be attacked at any moment.
A flash of light, and over a dozen Heaven-Reaching Pavilion disciples were transmitted away, the two disciples responsible for the transmission bowed their heads and walked back.
"Fellow disciples, please wait a moment." Now in the Celestial God Realm, Wang Xu spoke, addressing all disciples below this realm, even those who entered the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion before him, as his juniors.
The two paused, turning to look at the approaching Wang Xu.
"Lu Liu and Lu Qi greet the three senior brothers!"
Noticing the powerful aura emanating from Wang Xu, Lu Chen, and Lei Fan, the two disciples immediately paid their respects with due reverence.
"There are no problems with you two." Wang Xu quietly used his spiritual consciousness to probe the two disciples, finding nothing suspicious.
"Which Sub-Hall are you from?" Wang Xu asked.
"Reporting to the senior brother, we two brothers are from the Cyan Yang Hall." The older disciple spoke up.
Is it from my Sub-Hall? Wang Xu was surprised.
"The teleportation array you just used, does it lead to the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos?" Wang Xu inquired.
Both of them nodded simultaneously.
"I remember the quotas to proceed to the Heaven-Reaching Sacred Cosmos are separated by several hundred or thousand years, have the rules changed now?" Wang Xu continued to ask.
"Senior brother, you must have just emerged from seclusion, that’s by order of the Hall Master of All Heavens Hall. Any cowardly person, fearful of participating in wars and afraid of death, can go to the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos via the teleportation array," Lu Qi replied. "Not just to the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos, but those to other Sacred Cosmoses are also open every day, ready to use anytime."
"Ha, what a ’brilliant’ use of provocation." Lei Fan sneered.
Wang Xu frowned, what was happening? All teleportation arrays to the major Sacred Cosmoses were open, yet the one to the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos was supposed to be erased?
The more he thought about it, the stranger it became.
"Are you three senior brothers planning to head to the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos?" Lu Liu asked.
"No, we are not so cowardly to flee like that." Wang Xu replied, "By the way, wasn’t the teleportation array initially managed by the Law Enforcement Elder of Red Sun Hall? Why has it been switched to you? With your capabilities alone, it’s impossible to activate the array."
Lu Qi and Lu Liu, both Invincible White Hole Level, although their real strength could match the Initial Chaos Universe Realm, can’t utilize the Sacred Cosmos’s teleportation array without a Celestial God Realm.
"Senior brother, you are insightful. We indeed cannot activate the array, but the elder from Red Sun Hall was ambushed and severely injured by an infiltrator from the Dark Holy Banquet, and no other Law Enforcement Elder could be found to take over, so Senior Sister Su You stepped in to lead us in handling this task," Lu Qi explained.
Lu Qi took out a scroll from his sleeve, spreading it open to reveal a cleverly crafted energy array, allowing even those at the Initial Chaos Universe Realm to activate the teleportation array effortlessly.
"Senior Sister Su You?" Wang Xu found the name familiar.
Could it be... yes, it was her!
Wang Xu’s eyes lit up, suddenly remembering this "Senior Sister Su You."
Recalling the time when Wang Xu first arrived at the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, Cyan Yang Hall welcomed its first female disciple, who was none other than Su You.
Su You had a mesmerizing beauty that captivated many brothers of Cyan Yang Hall. Wang Xu had also tutored her for a period, but later, after receiving orders to participate in the border war, he lost contact with Su You, and gradually, her name faded from his mind.
Later, when Wang Xu was hunted down and sought refuge within the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, hiding within the Mortal Realm to avoid detection, he still did not encounter Su You. Now, hearing her name again, Wang Xu was filled with emotion.
"Where is Sister Su You now?" Wang Xu asked. Su You had now become in charge of the teleportation array, and Wang Xu needed to find her to understand what was truly happening.
"Sister Su You is in the Teleportation Hall. If the three brothers need to see her, my brother and I can guide you." Lu Qi said.
"That would be great..."
"Wait." As soon as Wang Xu finished speaking, Lu Chen spoke up.
"Brother Lu Chen, what is it?" Wang Xu asked.
Lu Chen glanced at Lu Qi and Lu Liu: "You two leave first. I know where the Teleportation Hall is. Once we finish what we need to do, we’ll go to see Su You."
"In that case, we will take our leave."
The two left, and Wang Xu looked at Lu Chen in confusion.
Only to see Lu Chen step onto the teleportation array, reaching the central area of the array, where the core of the teleportation array was located. He used his spiritual consciousness to penetrate inside and carefully investigated.
A moment later, Brother Lu Chen’s eyes suddenly shot out a sharp gleam.
"This teleportation array is not going to the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos!" Lu Chen’s words were shocking, causing Wang Xu and Lei Fan to be moved.
"I’ve accessed this teleportation array twice, and although I cannot deploy arrays spanning two Inner Cosmos, I somewhat understand the principle within. Just now, I noticed this array was different from the two times before, and upon inspection, it truly is as I suspected."
"If it’s not transporting to the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos, then where is it sending us?" Wang Xu felt as if he had fallen into a mystery, surrounded by traps everywhere.
Erasing the teleportation array and re-establishing one leading elsewhere, deceiving everyone, what kind of person could achieve such a feat?
"As far as I know, this teleportation array’s distance isn’t very far, approximately eight hundred light-years. If my guess is correct, the other end of the teleportation array is likely located within the Mortal Realm!" Lu Chen analyzed.
"Mortal Realm!"
Wang Xu’s heart shook.
What purpose would there be to teleport the disciples of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion eight hundred light-years away to the Mortal Realm? Moreover, no disciple has questioned the genuineness of the teleportation array until now, clearly indicating that these disciples may have encountered unimaginable trouble!
"Go to the Teleportation Hall to find Su You. Perhaps we can learn something from her." Wang Xu said.
"No, don’t mention this to her at all." Lu Chen’s words carried deep meaning, and Wang Xu gave him a look, understanding what Lu Chen was worried about.
"We set out immediately."
The three of them immediately flew towards the Teleportation Hall.
...
The Teleportation Hall is on the other side of the Heaven-Reaching Tower. Upon returning, Wang Xu and the others saw this symbol of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion at first sight.
"Heaven-Reaching Tower, alas, it is not in my fate." Wang Xu felt deep regret in his heart for being unable to conquer the Heaven-Reaching Tower and leave his name on the ranking list.
"This is the Heaven-Reaching Tower of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, truly towering and majestic, with extraordinary presence!" Even Lei Fan could not stop praising.
The Heaven-Reaching Tower stood between heaven and earth as if it were the pillar supporting the heavens, emitting an aura that made everyone feel like ants. No matter how strong they were, in front of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, they were but mere specks, insignificant.
Wang Xu lowered his head, looking at the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion disciples below, waiting to enter the Heaven-Reaching Tower’s trial.
Because the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion was closed and the annual missions canceled, most disciples chose to venture into the Heaven-Reaching Tower, firstly to enhance their strength, and secondly, it was the only way to obtain treasures. Moreover, having the opportunity to compete with many genius figures on the ranking list naturally attracted a large number of Heaven-Reaching Pavilion disciples.
Many disciples from the Seventy-Two Sub-Halls surrounded the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion tightly, with more people continuously rushing here.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Wang Xu felt the Burning Nether Fire within him tremble slightly.
"Fen You, what’s happening?" Wang Xu spoke to his consciousness.
Yet, Fen You did not respond, and the Burning Nether Fire returned to peace.
Wang Xu was puzzled, but at this moment, a man in black robes with a scholarly demeanor and a smile like a spring breeze looked up at Wang Xu.
"A Black Hole Level disciple?" This black-robed man, who naturally elicited goodwill, was merely a Black Hole Level disciple, not very powerful.
The black-robed man glanced at Wang Xu, gave a kind smile, then lowered his head and continued chatting and laughing with others.
"Was it my imagination?" Wang Xu did not find anything unusual about this Black Hole Level disciple.
"Forget it, let’s first head to the Teleportation Hall." (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to go to Qidian () to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users, please read at .)
