Chapter 1937: 800, I should have thought it was you (asking for monthly votes)_2
Outsiders thought he was gravely injured during his battle with Sword God Lu Yue, but little did they know it was because of his self-reproach for not safeguarding the Heavenly Cold Hammer properly.
“Sword God Lu Yue, who exactly is he?”
“He appears in every important place, yet seems like an outsider to it all.”
Han Muye, who came to this universe world from another world, has a deep connection with Lu Yue.
That sword light that even Universe-level powerhouses dare not face head-on is also related to Sword God Lu Yue.
In the memories of the Heavenly Cold Hammer, after obtaining this hammer, Sword God Lu Yue traveled to various universe worlds.
Among them is even the Primordial Universe.
In the Primordial Universe, there was a rumor of a Sword Dao Sage from the Outer Realm who came to visit and challenged five Primordial Overlords.
Ultimately, he left his personal sword behind in the Primordial Wilderness.
Looking at it this way, perhaps it was the legend left by Sword God Lu Yue in ancient times.
“He wanted to unlock the secrets of the Heavenly Cold Hammer, but his soul avatar did not tell him.”
“That being said, the soul avatar does not trust Sword God Lu Yue.”
For such a powerful being, if he were one of us, he could have been told some secrets.
But he was not.
“Perhaps when I see Sword God Lu Yue again, he will tell me himself,” a strong sense of battle intent emanated from Han Muye as he rose to his feet and stepped out of the chamber.
Outside the chamber, the God-Slaying Puppet Fighter that guarded the place turned and said in a low voice, “That person from the Shangguan Family has been looking for you.”
The Shangguan Family represents the Top Three Families, whether it’s Shangguan Qing or Shangguan Hong.
Not only people from the Shangguan Family came by; individuals from Heavenly Secret City such as Mingtong and Divine-level Master Zhu Yuan also visited.
Han Muye made some minor preparations before going to meet Shangguan Hong.
“Mr. Han, this is the wager we agreed upon.”
Shangguan Hong presented a jade box straightforwardly and placed it in front of Han Muye.
It seems the Shangguan Family might have profited the most from this bet.
Even Shangguan Qing is somewhat envious of Shangguan Hong’s gambling earnings.
The cultivators of Heavenly Secret City are mostly wealthy.
Especially when betting on Xun Chu Yun to win, everyone was willing to bet their entire fortune, eager to shear the Shangguan Family’s wool.
But who could have thought that this time it was their skins that were being peeled off?
In the jade box in front of Han Muye, there were a variety of Primordial-level battle puppets, spiritual materials for war puppets, and components, totaling almost enough to assemble more than eight hundred.
Also included were various other grades of spiritual materials, treasures.
From this gambling alone, the number of Primordial-level battle puppets and armor Han Muye needed surged to over a thousand.
Indeed, one prospers with windfall fortunes.
However, such opportunities may be difficult to come by in the future.
After all, in the divine realm, there probably wouldn’t be anyone daring to gamble with Han Muye again.
Even if Heavenly Secret City issued a gag order, those who were meant to know about Han Muye would still find out.
“The Great Elder of my household suggests that whenever Mr. Han is available, you should come to visit the Shangguan Family,” Shangguan Hong said, presenting another jade box.
This one contained treasures of a higher grade than the previous box.
Though fewer in number, their value might not necessarily be less.
This was a gift left by Shangguan Qing.
The gambling round set up by Shangguan Qing also earned a decent amount.
“Sure, I will definitely make a trip when I have the time,” Han Muye nodded in agreement.
He definitely intended to visit.
After all, the refining technique he planned to promote in the divine realm, as well as the means to change the layout within it, required the support of some major forces behind him.
Leaving the building where Shangguan Hong resided, Han Muye encountered Master Zhu Yuan on the way.
According to Zhu Yuan, he came to invite Han Muye.
Out of the twelve top masters of Heavenly Secret City, excluding the five in seclusion or traveling afar, the remaining eight all came to see Han Muye.
Some of them even possessed memories from ancient times.
“Although the Liantian Sect from ancient times is not a direct lineage of our Heavenly Secret City, some ancient books show that Liantian Sect was the strongest presence in the path of refining weapons during ancient times,” said an elder named Sun Zhi from Heavenly Secret City, who was the oldest, most experienced, and perhaps the most profound in cultivation abilities.
Sun Zhi had even experienced the most glorious era of Heavenly Secret City.
At that time, Heavenly Secret City possessed the hub of the Temple of Ten Thousand Gods.
“We also know the purpose of Mr. Han’s visit to Heavenly Secret City.”
Looking at Han Muye, Sun Zhi narrowed his eyes, a gentle smile on his face.
Every true refining expert who comes to Heavenly Secret City is here to observe and comprehend the city’s array.
Han Muye nodded without speaking.
He naturally also wanted to observe the city’s grand array.
He was curious whether the array that controls the Myriad Universes could still be used.
If it could be used, then was there still a possibility to connect with the Primordial Universe?
Knowing that Han Muye wanted to see the array, Sun Zhi turned his head to smile lightly and nodded towards Mingtong and the others.
The group rose to their feet and accompanied Han Muye towards the most central location of the city.
At the central location stood an altar where divine lights interwove.
This had some similarity to the Myriad Domains Altar.
It was also a passage to the Land of Illusion.
Indeed, if the city’s grand array that sealed the city was here, it could not go unnoticed.
“Hum—” Sun Zhi struck out with a palm, and divine lights flashed.
The others followed suit, their divine lights connecting with the array’s power, drawing on the surrounding heaven and earth’s turbulence.
At that moment, the entire Heavenly Secret City seemed to fall into the Land of Illusion.
So that was it.
The area outside Heavenly Secret City was, in fact, cut off from the divine realm.
This was how the mighty beings from all over were unable to detect the ongoings inside Heavenly Secret City.
