Chapter 792: Vast Starry Heaven
The starry heavens were filled with danger. Clearly, the Supreme Sky Sect put in a lot of effort to ensure the safety of this group of disciples.
“Wear your jade pendant and board the warship.”
“Sou! Sou!”
The moment one of the Vice Palace Masters spoke, the many disciples on the drill ground immediately leaped up and went through the barrier of the King Grade warship to land on the deck, one after another.
Xiao Chen casually sized up this King Grade warship. It was about three hundred meters long, thirty meters tall, and completely black.
The purple banner on the Supreme Sky Sect’s warship had the words “Supreme Sky” on both the front and back.
There were many high-ranked Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons on the deck and around the warship.
These high-ranked Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons were very strong. One shot equaled a grandmaster-level Martial Sage’s full-power strike. When a hundred of these Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons fired together, they could instant-kill a grandmaster-level Martial Sage.
The prow of the warship even had a Sage Grade Ancient Demonic Energy Cannon hidden in the mouth of a beast figurehead. It could threaten a strong quasi-Emperor.
Xiao Chen could also faintly feel extremely complicated mysterious talisman scripts on the ship’s barrier. Only when he infused his eyes with Spiritual Sense could he see flickering golden motes of light.
He thought to himself, This King Grade warship is not as simple as it appears on the surface.
As Xiao Chen thought this, the ship’s bow tilted upwards, and four pipes extended from the ship’s stern. Then, red trails of flames burst out of these pipes.
The warship moved at Mach 2, quickly flying upwards. Then, it continued to accelerate and eventually broke out of the atmosphere of this star at Mach 10.
At some point in time, Xiao Chen turned weightless, and his body floated up without his volition. Now, he had truly entered the starry heavens of space.
Although this was the first time Xiao Chen experienced this, he did not panic. He circulated some of his Quintessence and landed back on the deck.
Originally, the other disciples were hoping to see Xiao Chen make a joke of himself. However, he had not panicked at all, astonishing them.
After walking for a while, Xiao Chen quickly got used to this gravityless situation and discovered several differences between the space of this world and the space of his previous life.
He turned his head and looked around, taking in the infinite starry heavens. The sense of vastness was overwhelming, much more intense than on the ground.
This was not the first time the other disciples saw such a scene. However, their shock was no less than Xiao Chen’s as they looked around as well.
The starry heavens were not peaceful. Meteorites flew at the warship. Since the warship reached space, the Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons never stopped firing.
The Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons released resplendent beams of light into the starry heavens, shattering all the meteors flying at the warship. If these meteors were to crash into the defensive barrier at such horrifying speeds, there would be major problems.
Xiao Chen lowered his head and played with the jade pendant on his chest for a while. Then, he recalled that this jade pendant had a map of the vicinity. Out of curiosity, he sent in his Spiritual Sense.
A star map immediately appeared before Xiao Chen’s eyes. The warship he stood on and the surrounding crowd all seemed to disappear. He felt as though he stood alone in the starry heavens.
The various stars were marked with different colors on the star map. Blue stars represented the bases of the Kunlun Realm faction. The vividness of the colors represented the danger level of the stars.
The stars on the map were not fixed. They were in constant high-speed motion, giving off a wondrous feeling. The map would slowly pan in accordance with eye movement. When Xiao Chen squinted, the small stars quickly enlarged.
However, this was clearly just an ordinary map of the stars. The region it showed was not particularly extensive, and some of the things displayed were rudimentary.
After the novelty wore off, Xiao Chen got bored and withdrew his Spiritual Sense.
The moment he withdrew his Spiritual Sense and looked ahead, he saw ten-odd clumps of scarlet flames flying quickly towards the warship. These bloodlike flames were very eye-catching in the dark space.
When several of the disciples on deck saw these, their eyes lit up as they cried out excitedly, “It’s Flame Crystal Rock!”
The two Vice Palace Masters standing at the ship’s bow were somewhat astonished as well. They smiled and said, “It really is Flame Crystal Rock. We are unexpectedly lucky. When they arrive later, make a move yourself. However, remember not to go too far from the warship.”
However, Xiao Chen frowned slightly. With his Spiritual Sense, he could see much farther than the two Vice Palace Masters could with their Mental Energy.
Xiao Chen could see a young male with a dark expression seated on a black throne behind the ten-odd clumps of scarlet light.
The throne sat on a bank of dense pitch-black clouds. The young man moved forward quickly, riding on the throne, in pursuit of the clumps of scarlet light.
The entire throne gave off an aura of death, evoking a familiar feeling in Xiao Chen. The scarlet throne in his sea of consciousness trembled restlessly.
After a cultivator absorbed a Flame Crystal Rock, the cultivator would have a good chance of comprehending the state of fire. If the cultivator already comprehended the state of fire, a Flame Crystal Rock would strengthen the state.
There were even some high-quality Flame Crystal Rocks that could allow a cultivator to comprehend a will after absorbing them.

Of course, that sort of Flame Crystal Rock was extremely rare and precious. People hardly ever discovered them.
Clearly, the Flame Crystal Rocks flying towards the King Grade warship were no such Flame Crystal Rock. Otherwise, the two Vice Palace Masters would have already made a move themselves.
Even so, the Flame Crystal Rocks’ value could not be underestimated. There were also many of them. Just casually swiping one could yield a small fortune.
Soon, the clumps of scarlet flames became clearer. The red crystals within them were visible to the naked eye.
“Sou! Sou! Sou!”
Many figures leaped into the air and quickly flew towards the clumps of scarlet flames.
The two Vice Palace Masters glanced at Xiao Chen, who had not made a move yet. The old man on the left said, “Xiao Chen, you should go and try to get some. As long as you don’t go too far from the warship, you should be safe for four hours.”
“There is no air friction in the starry heavens. At first, you will feel that it is hard to control your speed. You should acclimatize yourself first before trying to obtain the Flame Crystal Rocks.” The person on the right gave further advice.
Xiao Chen could not help but smile bitterly to himself. Naturally, he also wanted to try and obtain some Flame Crystal Rocks. Even if he could not use them himself, he could earn a large sum of Astral Coins.
However, the throne that the mysterious pursuer sat on was clearly the Death Throne, something that was a part of the Evil King’s Throne, which his own Massacre Throne came from as well.
According to Ao Jiao, the Evil King’s Throne had split into seven. Each part represented a high-level will. Once Xiao Chen snatched the other party’s throne, he could gain another high-level state.
In the world, aside from the elemental states of wind, water, fire, thunder, and earth, there were also high-level states like massacre, destruction, immortality, ruin, death, despair, and darkness, as well as several others.
The addition of each of such states could raise a cultivator’s strength once again.
If that mysterious man felt the Massacre Throne in Xiao Chen, he would definitely charge over regardless of the consequences. As for the rumor of the Evil King’s revival when the thrones merged, no one believed in it.
“Xiao Chen, don’t worry. You will have to do this eventually. It would be good to familiarize yourself here.”
The two Vice Palace Masters continued to advise. They thought that Xiao Chen was leery of the strange environment of the starry heavens and thus unwilling to go out.
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly, conflicted in his heart. Now, he had no choice but to go out. He controlled his Mental Energy to restrain the restless scarlet throne in his sea of consciousness, wrapping it up in layers.
He understood the principle of getting into trouble on account of a cherished item. He did not use the scarlet throne much because his strength was insufficient.
The exposure of the scarlet throne would gain the attention of some experts, potentially causing him trouble.
Xiao Chen gently pushed off the deck and instantly went through the defensive barrier of the warship, arriving in the infinite starry heavens. The moment he left the barrier, the pressure vanished, and his speed increased by twenty percent.
There was no air to impede Xiao Chen’s progress in space. He moved much faster than in the Kunlun Continent. In the Kunlun Continent, once his speed reached a certain level, he would hit a limit.
Moving even faster required one to enter the void. However, even grandmaster-level Martial Sages could not tear through the space of the Kunlun Continent.
After Xiao Chen acclimatized himself and held his breath, he circulated his Quintessence and checked out the situation in front.
Cui Hao took the lead in the charge. He nimbly dodged the meteors in the starry heavens, rushing farther ahead of the others. He was the closest to the ten-odd clumps of scarlet flames, appearing the most excited.
Ao Jiao, I wrapped the Massacre Throne in several layers of Mental Energy. That fellow should not be able to discover it, right?
He should not be able to. If he can still discover it, then it would make no difference whether you come out of the warship or not.
This exchange reassured Xiao Chen. As for the Flame Crystal Rock, it was not something he urgently needed. He would just make an attempt and get what he could.
Xiao Chen executed Thunder Dragon Steps. As he squinted, he quickly flashed to the front. Even though he had set off later, he overtook most of the crowd and caught up with Cui Hao.
“Haha, I may lose to you slightly on land. However, it is impossible for you to defeat me in the starry heavens,” Cui Hao said to Xiao Chen beside him. His speed doubled, and he left Xiao Chen behind.
When Xiao Chen heard Cui Hao’s mocking words, he smiled faintly and ignored him. He continued flying forward at a constant speed.
“Good, the first Flame Crystal Rock is mine!”
Cui Hao revealed joy on his face as his figure flashed forward. He stretched his hand towards the long cluster of Flame Crystal Rocks to snatch one.
As Cui Hao’s Quintessence surged, a Flame Crystal Rock immediately veered from its initial trajectory and flew towards him.
The joy on Cui Hao’s face intensified. Just as he stepped forward and was about to grasp the Flame Crystal Rock…
“Scram! How dare you snatch something, that I, Wang Can, set my eyes on!”
A ferocious shout suddenly came from the distance. Suddenly, black energy appeared in front of Cui Hao like a whip sweeping over.
The Flame Crystal Rock that Cui Hao almost caught flew away in an instant. The black Quintessence continued sweeping towards him, undiminished in might.
