Chapter 836 Teleportation Gate
Although Qi Huang’s hair seemed frail, it was unusually sharp, effortlessly slicing through the spatial barrier piece by piece, as easily as cutting tofu. Seeing this, all the people of Cang Mang Star widened their eyes in astonishment, especially Zhao Jian, who had just ascended. He understood how indestructible the spatial barrier was.
While expanding the spatial barrier, Qi Huang scanned the starry sky near Cang Mang Star with her spiritual sense. Her spiritual sense had reached the level of a Master-level Immortal, and the area she could scan was more than ten times larger than before.
“What is that?”
At the end of the scan’s range, Qi Huang discovered a tall stone gate standing in the void, with space collapsing inside, forming a vortex.
“This? This is actually a teleportation gate?”
Qi Huang could hardly believe what she saw. She was extremely excited. Wasn’t this like someone delivering a pillow when one is drowsy? Of course, this was assuming the teleportation gate was functional.
Qi Huang immediately shared this good news with Cheng Hong Ling, her voice filled with extreme excitement.
“How do you know that’s a teleportation gate?” Cheng Hong Ling asked first.
“I saw something like this in the Immortal Realm through Lu Yao’s memories. It’s definitely a teleportation gate,” Qi Huang explained.
“Alright, even if it is a teleportation gate, can it still be used? That’s the first point.” Cheng Hong Ling first extended a slender finger, then a second: “Secondly, do you know how far the other side of the teleportation gate is? Is it a hundred miles, ten miles, or just one mile? Moreover, do you know what the situation is on the other side of this teleportation gate? Is it a low-level world, a cultivation world, or the Immortal Realm? In short, unless its other side is far enough, it will be meaningful to us.”
“Yes, but have you ever thought that if this teleportation gate is functional, we can study it and try to control it? Then we can go wherever we want!” Qi Huang revealed her bold plan.
Cheng Hong Ling suddenly realized and said, “If we can control this thing, that would naturally be the best.”
“I’ll use my spiritual sense to move it over and take a look,” Qi Huang said impatiently.
“Wait, don’t you find it strange? How could there be a teleportation gate in such a low-level world? This thing involves spatial laws, which even the cultivation world doesn’t have,” Cheng Hong Ling quickly stopped her.
Qi Huang pondered for a moment and then said, “How about this, I’ll monitor it for a while and then decide.”
“That’s the best course of action,” Cheng Hong Ling agreed.
Qi Huang came back to her senses and saw Zhao Jian floating nearby, looking as if he had lost all will to leave.
“Don’t worry, after we finish our business, we will naturally take you to a populated star.” Qi Huang comforted him. He was a filial son, which was very similar to her.
“Thank you, Fairy!” Zhao Jian immediately revived.
Qi Huang then shouted into the rift, “Everyone disperse.”
A group of onlookers from Cang Mang Star dared not disobey Qi Huang’s orders and scattered like birds and beasts, still excitedly discussing what they had seen and heard today.
Although Zhao Jian’s family was reluctant, they couldn’t stay on the snowy mountain forever, so they left with lingering reluctance.
“Zhao Jian, your physique cannot withstand being outside for a long time. I will put you into my storage ring. There is food and other items inside.” Qi Huang turned to Zhao Jian. This guy floating around nearby was really getting in the way.
“Storage ring? What is that?” Zhao Jian asked doubtfully.
“You can understand it as an independent space that can store things,” Qi Huang explained casually, and then put Zhao Jian into a storage ring.
Next, the couple began to patiently monitor the teleportation gate.
Days passed, and two months flew by. Qi Huang and Cheng Hong Ling’s “famous names” had spread throughout Cang Mang Star, but the area around the teleportation gate remained deserted.
Qi Huang was getting impatient. She decided to wait another month. If the teleportation gate still showed no anomalies, she would move it over for research.
Heaven rewards those who are diligent. Three days later, a dark figure jumped out of the teleportation gate. It was a Silver Corpse.
“Silver Corpse? How could a Silver Corpse appear in a low-level world? That’s equivalent to the Huashen Realm of cultivators. Why didn’t it crush the surrounding space?” A series of questions popped into Qi Huang’s mind. She focused her spiritual sense to investigate and discovered that the Silver Corpse was emitting a large amount of assimilation power, which had formed a domain. It was precisely because of the assimilation domain that the Silver Corpse could appear in a low-level world.
“I originally wanted to wait by a stump to catch a hare, but I didn’t expect to catch a big fat sheep.” Qi Huang trembled with excitement.
“What’s wrong? Are you cold?” Cheng Hong Ling asked caringly beside her. She knew that although her lover’s spiritual sense was powerful, her actual cultivation was only at the Shentong Realm, and her physical fitness was far inferior to hers.
“I’m not cold, guess what I saw?” Qi Huang immediately told Cheng Hong Ling what she had seen and added excitedly, “If you absorb the assimilation power on it, you should be able to use the assimilation domain.”
“Is our luck too good?” Cheng Hong Ling asked, not excited, but with a hint of worry on her face. “You continue to monitor and see what it intends to do.”
“Okay!” Qi Huang continued to observe. As soon as the Silver Corpse appeared, it grabbed the frame of the teleportation gate with one hand to avoid being attracted by Cang Mang Star’s gravity.
Shortly after, hundreds of ordinary zombies also jumped out of the teleportation gate. They immediately grabbed the foundation of the teleportation gate to avoid being sucked away by Cang Mang Star. Since the strength of these zombie minions was only equivalent to the early stage of the Juling Realm cultivators, they could remain in the low-level world even without the assimilation domain.
The Silver Corpse looked at Cang Mang Star before it, and a greedy expression appeared on its pale face: “This star has mountains and water, forests and lakes, so there should be many animals.”
“Roar roar roar…” Hearing this, the surrounding zombie minions let out beast-like roars, with drool flowing from the corners of their mouths, completely devoid of human appearance.
“All of you, restrain yourselves! Don’t be like starving ghosts!” The Silver Corpse scolded. The zombie minions trembled and quickly shut their mouths.
“Do you remember the purpose of our coming here? I’ll reiterate it. I’m mainly looking for a woman with a red beauty spot on her right cheek. Once we reach that star, don’t just focus on eating. Expand your descendants and gather information. Whoever finds that woman will have endless fresh blood to drink,” the Silver Corpse said casually.
“A woman with a red beauty spot on her face?” Qi Huang touched her right cheek through her veil, wondering if this guy was referring to her.
“Alright, my sons, charge! It’s time to eat!” The Silver Corpse immediately let go of its hand and rapidly “fell” towards Cang Mang Star.
“Roar roar roar…” More than a hundred zombie minions became excited again. They let go of their hands and fell towards Cang Mang Star, howling.
“What are you howling about? Falling from such a height will probably leave nothing but ashes. And you still want to eat.” Qi Huang muttered speechlessly. What worried her was not these guys “dying before they could even start,” but the loss of clues. She had finally found a few “living people,” and she had to ask them clearly before they died.
However, Qi Huang’s worries were unnecessary. The leader was a Silver Corpse, and its intelligence was no different from an ordinary person. How could it lead a group of subordinates to “commit suicide”? It took out an object from its embrace and threw it out. The object grew in the wind and transformed into a huge black umbrella. The zombies immediately grabbed the black umbrella and slowly descended towards Cang Mang Star.
“Don’t go down there. Come here and eat my fist!” Qi Huang sneered, and her spiritual sense transformed into transparent ropes that drilled into the spatial rift, wrapping around the more than one hundred zombies.
