Chapter 1471: Central Holy City
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
On the 12th floor, Han Fei waited for a day.
When Han Fei returned to the 11th floor, he didn’t find any marks left by powerhouses. Therefore, Han Fei quickly used the Vast Ocean Navigator, which pointed out the entrance to the next three floors.
When Han Fei reached the 14th floor, no matter how strong Old Demon Chu was, it was impossible for him to figure out this road at once among the billions of roads.
In fact, Han Fei had helped Old Demon Chu. After all, the first five levels Han Fei walked on were absolutely the right path. Logically speaking, just the first five levels alone saved Old Demon Chu and the other old guys hundreds of millions of choices.
Two months pa.s.sed.
Han Fei had already pa.s.sed the 212nd floor of the Monument of G.o.ds.
Even so, he still didn’t reach the end of this road.
It could be imagined: Apart from nonviolent destruction, or having a sacred instrument like the Vast Ocean Navigator, ordinary people couldn’t have such terrifying calculation power to find out the correct path.
Han Fei couldn’t help but complain. He had walked past so many floors. It should be enough, right? If he continued to walk further, he would collapse even if he had the Vast Ocean Navigator.
What the h.e.l.l are these?
The Penrose Stairs, the Penrose Triangle, the Mobius Rings, the Klein Bottle… Perhaps these patterns were not what they were called. There were even some patterns that Han Fei couldn’t call out. Was it just a coincidence that Han Fei encountered these wonderful patterns here?
On this day, Han Fei walked to the 212nd floor and stopped.
In Han Fei’s view, he didn’t have the ability to walk by himself. Every day, after using up the Vast Ocean Navigator, he would sit cross-legged, either cultivating or thinking.
However, he couldn’t make any breakthroughs now.
If it weren’t for the half drop of Origin Water in the Heavenly Palace that could increase his chances of making breakthrough, Han Fei could even become a Venerable on the Scattered Stars Island.
However, the current Han Fei knew that the stronger one was, the more profound one’s acc.u.mulation was. After entering the Venerable realm, his strength would be completely different.
Therefore, even if he had to hold it back, he had to wait until he got the half drop of Origin Water.
At this moment, Han Fei sat cross-legged and took out a fish skin map.
On the fish skin map, the number of each floor to the next floor was recorded. After Han Fei filled in three more numbers, he couldn’t help but scratch his head and laugh at himself.
“I’m afraid this thing has no rules at all. These numbers have no connection at all.”
The old turtle said, “You’re already not bad. You just need to remember these numbers. This shows that the navigator you obtained has extraordinary effects. It also shows that you are related to the so-called Heavenly Palace.”
In fact, during this period of time, the only thing that puzzled Han Fei was that he originally went to the Zhang family to steal the seventh level of the True Spirit Fis.h.i.+ng Art.
However, he accidentally stole an entire floor of treasures.
After he stole the treasure, he accidentally obtained this black pearl. The Zhang family probably didn’t know what this black pearl was used for. Therefore, they had been keeping it in their treasury, and now it was his.
From the beginning to the end, the Zhang family had no idea how big an opportunity they had missed!
Han Fei seemed bored, lying on a Floating Stone.
The old turtle suddenly said, “Han Fei, in fact, these patterns are not completely meaningless. I think you just didn’t understand these powers.”
Han Fei tilted his head. “Do you understand now?”
The old turtle said leisurely, “None of these patterns are normal. However, in the void world, nothing is impossible. I didn’t think so before… Have you noticed that these patterns seem to be some kind of an array?”
Han Fei chuckled. “Of course! I had thought of this possibility long ago on the first floor. However, what’s the point of such an array? To use it to create an infinite loop maze? Even if these patterns are combined, it’s just to make this loop maze more confusing… If it’s changed into a killing array, it’s possible…”
Han Fei smiled and chatted.
However, as he smiled, his face stiffened…
“Killing array?”
If a killing array was circular and continuous with no loss of power, and energy would only escape and be reused within a certain range, then, this killing array was infinite.
“Hiss!”
Han Fei rose with a gurgle.
a.s.suming that it was a killing array, what he needed to consider now was how to trap people in a single array.
The old turtle asked, “What’s on your mind?”
Han Fei said, “What you said makes sense. These maps might not be maps. They might just be an array. However, this array hasn’t been activated… Perhaps the entire Monument of G.o.ds is a big killing array.”
Han Fei’s eyes lit up.
Logically speaking, the Monument of G.o.ds might be the only pa.s.sage to the Central Holy City, but it was also the only bridge that protected the Central Holy City.
If the Monument of G.o.ds was an array, then this array could definitely be called a genius array. Since ancient times, among the millions of arrays, this array should be ranked first.
After a long stun, Han Fei smiled bitterly.
Even if this was indeed an array, how could he draw it? How long would it take to draw such a large-scale array?
At this moment, Han Fei was a little amazed at the design of the Heavenly Palace. If this Monument of G.o.ds was really an array, how strong was his mother?
Even if tens of millions of array masters work together according to a certain law, how many years would it take for them to set up such a huge array?
…
He thought about it for a day without any results.
The next day.
Han Fei issued an order in his heart, and the Vast Ocean Navigator appeared in his hand.
As Han Fei recited in his heart, after walking fifteen steps along the Floating Stones, the needle turned to him. Without hesitation, Han Fei drilled into the s.p.a.ce crack that popped up beside him.
However, what he saw stunned him.
In front of him was a road, a road with no end.
This road stretched as far as the eye could see, and there seemed to be a faint mist covering it. The road was about a kilometer wide, and there seemed to be various houses on both sides.
The moment Han Fei appeared on this road, he saw the faint mist on this road quickly begin to dissipate, and Han Fei’s vision became clearer and clearer.
After only a moment, the mist dissipated, and Han Fei seemed to see a temple at the end of his vision.
“Huff!”
Han Fei took a breath. I’m in?
Han Fei looked back, only to see a tall tower that occupied nearly a hundred square meters and nearly a kilometer high in the sky.
On the top of the tower were uneven square stones. Under the tower was a dark door.
People called this place the Monument of G.o.ds. Why did the outside world know the name of the Monument of G.o.ds? G.o.d knew! Perhaps they were already used to calling it that.
It was the first time Han Fei had seen such a magnificent scene. There was no such broad road that led so far in the entire Thousand Star City.
Han Fei wasn’t a fool. He didn’t dare to move a single step. After all, it was said that there was a city-protecting array in the Central Holy City. Its power could even kill Venerables.
Han Fei looked down at the ground. The greenish-white stone was glimmering and seemed to contain a lot of spiritual energy. However, there were no traces of arrays.
Han Fei couldn’t have felt worse. Was even a brick in the Central Holy City so valuable?
Han Fei asked, “Old Yuan, can you feel the remnants of arrays here?”
The old turtle immediately said, “You may not believe it, but I seem to be suppressed by the mysterious power in this city. I can’t release my senses at all.”
“Huh?”
Han Fei immediately tried it.
However, as the old turtle said, he couldn’t release his perception either.
In that case, was there an array here? What array was there? He couldn’t feel it at all.
Just as Han Fei was about to walk forward to see what was going on, suddenly, the scene in front of him changed.
First of all, lightning struck his body.
Han Fei’s face changed slightly, but he didn’t stop it. If this was just the power of thunder, it wasn’t a difficult array to pa.s.s.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After a hundred attacks in a row, Han Fei felt a burning sensation.
Han Fei discovered that the power of this lightning was comparable to ordinary thunder tribulations. It was much stronger than the lightning in the so-called Thunder Prison.
In terms of strength, it might be stronger than the lightning five thousand kilometers away in the Thunder Prison of the White Sh.e.l.l Royal City.
Of course, for the current Han Fei, the lightning strike was nothing.
However, after the lightning and thunder came a sea of fire.
Han Fei moved dozens of kilometers with each step.
However, here, s.p.a.ce seemed to have no meaning. He seemed to be trapped in an invisible array. There was no distance, no time, only nothingness.
“F*ck, am I in the Eight Diagram Pill Furnace?”
The old turtle said, “This array appeared too quickly. Logically speaking, it’s impossible! Even if you didn’t notice it, it’s impossible for me to not notice it. Therefore, I thought that there’s only one possibility…”
Han Fei asked, “What possibility? Come on, tell me. Why are you still keeping me in suspense?”
The old turtle said, “This entire city is a big array. You were in the array in the first place, so you have nowhere to escape.”
Han Fei gritted his teeth. “Although I’m not afraid of fire, such a huge array…”
Han Fei didn’t continue. He suddenly remembered the Heavenly Desolate City that had held up for more than 200 years in the sea…
If it were just manpower, it would have long been destroyed.
Humans had strong masters, but the Sea Clan had strong masters too. Back in the Heavenly Desolate City, there was a great array protecting the city. Even at the last moment, the array protecting the city was broken with difficulty.
At this moment, Han Fei thought of the Heavenly Desolate City.
Then, was the Central Holy City he was in called the Thousand Star City? Or… was there an independent name?
