Chapter 965: Gold Divine Halls and Old Acquaintances
A rumbling sound rang between heaven and earth as if there were an earthquake.
In the strange rift in the void, brilliant light like the light of gold suddenly burst out, and then cl.u.s.ters of golden light visible to the naked eye flew out of the rift. They were as dense as raindrops, falling to the ground like seeds. The closer they were to the ground, the bigger the cl.u.s.ters of golden light were.
In the end, these cl.u.s.ters of golden light turned into buildings that looked like Gold Divine Halls.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
One after another, the Gold Divine Halls fell to the ground and landed right on the Immortal Gates of the caves in the Saint-alighting Mountain Range.
In an instant, hundreds of Gold Divine Halls stood on the ruins of the Saint-alighting Mountain Range.
"This…"
"Oh my G.o.d, what"s going on?"
"Could it be that an immortal is coming?"
The people of different forces in charge of guarding the periphery of the Saint-alighting Mountain Range were completely dumbfounded when they saw this scene. Many people"s minds went blank because the scene in front of them had exceeded their imagination. Golden divine halls falling from the sky could no longer be explained by the rules of natural power. It had obviously been arranged by someone with great magical power.
But who had such horrible strength to make so many Gold Divine Halls fall from the sky in an instant?
Only one word could describe such power— Immortal!
Only immortals had this kind of strength.
The Gold Divine Halls were hundreds of meters high and were completely golden, s.h.i.+ning with dazzling brilliance. The footstones were 20 meters high and their surfaces were engraved with patterns of all kinds of creatures fighting. Gold statues of G.o.ds were standing around the footstones of the divine halls, holding the domes of the divine halls with their shoulders. Each of the statues of G.o.ds seemed to be alive, and the surface of their bodies was surrounded by a kind of crus.h.i.+ng pressure.
The walls of the Gold Divine Halls were covered with all kinds of magical runes. Faint roars of dragons and phoenixes could be heard from the divine halls. Even if people were far away from the Gold Divine Halls, they could still feel that there was extremely terrifying energy in them, which made countless creatures and masters around the Saint-alighting Mountain Range tremble.
The masters from various forces in the underground labyrinth and the void of the cave did not realize what had happened at all.
In the next instant—
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
There was a sudden change again. Golden light columns burst out from the top of every Gold Divine Hall and shot up to the sky, cutting through the void and clouds. Like gold divine swords, they pierced through heaven and earth, as well as the ground and stars, and went deep into the universe.
The light columns did not disappear. Instead, like pa.s.sages, they transmitted some kind of strange and terrifying power in the universe to the Stone Mouth City.
Many people in the underground labyrinth were enveloped by the suddenly appearing golden light before they could react.
Ding Hao was one of them.
He sensed it the moment it happened.
But in the face of the strange power, he didn"t have the time to react at all, nor could he struggle.
At the moment when his whole body was enveloped by the golden light, he felt a sense of weightlessness as if he were traveling through time and s.p.a.ce. This was a very familiar feeling of traveling through a s.p.a.ce gate. Unlike s.p.a.ce gate teleportation, in the golden light, one could not resist at all. The moment the golden light shone on him, Ding Hao felt he had lost all his strength like a newborn baby. Neither his Qi nor his physical strength could be exerted.
"What happened?" Ding Hao was greatly shocked. He didn"t know something strange had happened on the ground. He thought he had stumbled into a horrible tactical deployment.
But in the next moment, he quickly stopped feeling weak. Previously, it made him feel uneasy.
Ding Hao only felt dazzled by a golden light, and his vision was blurred.
After he adjusted his eyes and got used to the light, he was shocked to find that everything in front of him had changed. He was no longer in the underground labyrinth, but in a strange gold palace. The hexagonal gold Sky Pillars were supporting the dome of the palace. Gold seemed to be flowing on the walls. The whole palace was extremely empty.
In the centermost part of the palace, there was a 20-meter-high transparent crystal cube.
Ding Hao had never seen such a brilliant crystal before. There was not a single flaw on such a huge crystal, but it was strange that it was not transparent. It looked like a small abyss. With just one glance, it seemed as if the crystal could suck people"s souls out of their bodies and into the endless depths.
"Where am I?" Ding Hao was extremely vigilant, activating his magic skills to the extreme.
Right at this moment, another change occurred—
Golden flowing light suddenly flashed again in the hall. The brilliance dissipated and figures appeared one after another. The originally quiet and s.p.a.cious gold hall suddenly seemed crowded. Such brilliance lasted for only the time of a few dozen breaths, and there were already more than 100 figures in the gold hall.
At a glance, Ding Hao saw Little Ape King, the genius of the Beast Clan, who was covered with blood. He was holding a gold combat rod in his hand. The b.l.o.o.d.y aura around him was enough to solidify the air and was chilly to the extreme.
"What is this place?"
"Why am I here?"
"Who has brought me here? Show up!"
"Hahaha, Liu Kai, you old b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you dare show up in front of me. You"re dead meat this time…" Someone found his deadly enemy, whom he had been chasing, in the crowd. He was smirking.
The crowd suddenly became extremely noisy.
The figures appearing included the people from the Human Clan and those from alien clans. Their numbers varied. Most of the creatures were injured and were covered with blood as if they were Killing G.o.ds who had walked out of the Demon Battlefield in h.e.l.l. Many of them were still in a fighting posture the moment they appeared…
At first, the crowd was noisy and people were shocked. Then, they quickly separated.
In an unfamiliar environment, people who were familiar with each other would gather together. It was the first reaction and instinct of any living creature.
After looking at each other"s faces, the more than 100 people were quickly divided into more than 20 small groups with different numbers of people in them. They were all looking around with vigilance. Those who could be sucked to this place were the masters who had appeared in the void of the cave and in the labyrinth. They all had powerful strength and rich experience. The terrible power surging on the walls of the Gold Divine Hall, as well as the strange huge crystal in the center, made every creature understand that they had encountered something strange and irresistible…
Before they could get a clear idea of their surroundings, people were in good control of their urges to fight.
Ding Hao stood alone beside a hexagonal gold Sky Pillar. He did not join any small group.
After a short period of observation, he recognized some "old acquaintances" from the crowd, including the successor of Sword Daimon, Zhu Ganglie, the genius of the Pigman Clan, "Thunder Roar" Ding Ling, G.o.d Realm Master Huo Jun from the G.o.d"s Palace, and the young man in snow-white, who should be the successor of the Sky Immortal Sect…
They were all very powerful masters.
"What the h.e.l.l is going on with this Gold Divine Hall? Why are there no doors on all sides? It"s just like a graveyard. I can"t see where the outside is…" said someone in surprise. His voice was extremely harsh in the quiet air.
At this time, many people noticed that the Gold Divine Hall really had neither windows nor doors. It was just like a completely sealed prison.
"Humph, I"d like to see who"s playing a trick…" A Semi G.o.d Realm Master covered with blood snorted as he stood in front of a gold divine wall. Suddenly, he threw a punch, trying to break through the wall. His strength was indeed very powerful. Lightning surged as he threw the punch as if it were the wrath of heaven.
However—
"Ah…" There was a scream.
More horrible lightning shot out of the gold wall. In the blink of an eye, the master, whose combat strength was in the Semi G.o.d Realm, was directly turned into black charcoal, and then he became a pile of ashes.
All the masters were shocked at this moment.
If it weren"t for the suppressive power between heaven and earth, the master, whose combat strength was in the Semi G.o.d Realm, would probably be a middle-level G.o.d Realm Master. However, he was killed by the wall of the Gold Divine Hall in an instant without any room to dodge. This kind of power was too terrifying. Even high-level G.o.d Realm Masters couldn"t resist it.
Some masters who had also intended to break out of the wall all gave up this idea at this moment.
Ding Hao was also shocked.
He had been silent all the time, observing the surroundings, especially Ding Ling, the successor of the Sky Immortal Sect, Little Ape King and other masters with amazing combat strength. He was sure that there was still the strange suppressive power between heaven and earth in the Gold Divine Hall. Many people"s Qi realms had fallen.
"Look, what"s that?" Someone suddenly exclaimed.
Following his gaze, the crowd looked up and suddenly found that in the void about 10 meters high above their heads, ten gold chairs had appeared, but they didn"t know when they appeared. They were floating in the air, s.h.i.+ning brightly. Each of the chairs was in a different shape. They were shaped like war beasts, flowers, plants, weapons, or creatures. The shapes were unique and the chairs were like ten gold thrones.
Ding Hao was also slightly shocked.
He remembered very clearly that he had carefully observed the entire Gold Divine Hall before, but he didn"t see these ten chairs, which indicated that they appeared later… Could it be that some mysterious existence was behind this Gold Divine Hall?
Just thinking about it sent a chill down his spine.
It was as if he were a trapped beast in a cage, losing his ability to control his own fate.
"I hope that"s not the case. Otherwise, the existence behind this is too terrifying as he can trap so many masters…" Ding Hao comforted himself in his heart.
At this time, Ding Hao"s pupils suddenly contracted.
His eyes were suddenly fixed on the crowd.
About 200 meters away, behind a group of armored soldiers of the G.o.d"s Palace, a girl in a red battle suit was standing beside a gold Sky Pillar. She was slender and beautiful, with a delicate and perfect figure. Her bones and muscles were very tender. There was silver lightning flas.h.i.+ng in her eyes. Her eyebrows showed a kind of rare handsomeness, and their tips were slightly raised. They looked like sharp swords pointing at her temples, which had added a bit of fierceness to her.
She was a beautiful perfect girl.
But what attracted Ding Hao"s attention was not her extremely beautiful appearance, nor was it her fierce temperament, which made her look like a Killing G.o.d.
It was because Ding Hao knew this girl.
