Chapter 68 Mysterious Visitor and Unknown Warning
After the world gradually returned to peace and prosperity, the Alliance headquarters welcomed a mysterious visitor. On this sunny day, the guards of the Alliance headquarters were patrolling the city gates as usual. Suddenly, a strange light appeared in the sky, and within the light, a uniquely shaped flying machine slowly descended onto the headquarters' plaza.
The aircraft emitted a faint blue light, its shape resembling a giant bird, yet possessing a metallic texture and exquisite patterns. An elderly man in a white robe stepped off the aircraft; his hair was white, his face kind, but his eyes held a profound and mysterious depth.
Upon learning of the arrival of the mysterious visitor, Xuan Yuanche and Su Yao hurriedly came to greet him. The old man nodded slightly and bowed to Xuan Yuanche and Su Yao, saying, "I have long admired your names and have come to pay you a visit today because I have important matters to discuss with you."
Xuanyuan Che politely replied, "May I ask where you come from, senior? And what is this important matter you speak of?"
The old man sighed softly and said, "I come from the distant Astral Plane. In the Astral Plane, we have always been watching the development and balance of various worlds. The world you live in has recently experienced many hardships. Although it has temporarily returned to peace thanks to your efforts, an even greater crisis is about to arrive."
Xuan Yuanche and Su Yao were startled and quickly asked, "Senior, what is the greater crisis you mentioned?"
The old man raised his head, looked up at the sky, and slowly said, "Deep in the universe, there exists an evil force called the 'Dark Star Power.' This force feeds on devouring worlds, and wherever it goes, whether light or darkness, everything is utterly destroyed. Recently, our astral plane has observed that the fluctuations of the Dark Star Power are spreading towards your world, and it is expected to arrive in the near future."
Su Yao frowned and said, "Then how should we deal with this? This Dark Star Power sounds extremely powerful."
The old man took out a crystal radiating starlight from his robes and handed it to Xuan Yuanche: "This star crystal contains a portion of the pure power of the astral plane. It can help you improve your strength and, at crucial moments, may even provide some resistance to the power of the dark star. But to completely stop the power of the dark star, you still need to find the legendary 'Scripture of Light'."
Xuanyuan Che accepted the star crystal, sensing the powerful energy it contained, and asked, "What is this Holy Scripture of Light? Where can I find it?"
The old man said, "The Holy Scripture of Light is a divine artifact left behind by a great god of light in ancient times. It records the supreme method to fight against evil forces. As for its whereabouts, I only know that it is hidden in a space forgotten by time—the Illusory Realm of Light. The Illusory Realm of Light is located at the edge of the world, where space and time are disordered, and it is full of all kinds of dangerous illusions and powerful guardian spirits."
Xuanyuan Che gripped the star crystal tightly and said firmly, "No matter how dangerous it is, we must find the Holy Scripture of Light and protect our world."
The old man nodded and said, “Your courage is commendable. But you must know that time is of the essence, and the spread of the Dark Star Power is far beyond your imagination. Moreover, while you are searching for the Holy Scripture of Light, the Shadow Cult and the Sea Demons may take the opportunity to stir up trouble again. You must be fully prepared.”
After speaking, the old man returned to the aircraft, which slowly rose and disappeared into the sky.
Xuanyuan Che and Su Yao gazed in the direction the old man had departed, their hearts filled with worry. They knew this would be an unprecedented and immense challenge. But they had no intention of backing down and immediately began preparations for their journey to the Illusory Realm.
They gathered the most elite cultivators in the alliance and told them what the mysterious visitor had said. Although the cultivators were somewhat fearful upon hearing this, encouraged by Xuan Yuanche and Su Yao, they all expressed their willingness to go together.
During the preparations, Xuanyuan Che shared the power of the Star Crystal with some of the stronger cultivators, allowing them to try to absorb and integrate this power to enhance their overall combat strength. At the same time, they also collected various precious magical treasures and elixirs to prepare for the various dangers they would face in the Illusory Realm.
In the Shadow Cult's lair, the cult leader, though wounded in the last great battle, had not died. Upon learning of the impending arrival of the Dark Star Power, a wicked idea took root in his mind. He believed this was the perfect opportunity for the Shadow Cult to rise to power. If they could collude with the Dark Star Power while Xuan Yuan Che and his companions searched for the Holy Scripture of Light, the Shadow Cult could rule the entire world.
So the leader of the Shadow Cult dispatched his men to search far and wide for a way to communicate with the power of the Dark Star. They searched ancient ruins and explored the dark abyss, hoping to find a clue.
The sea monster sensed the fluctuations of the Dark Star's power even in the deep sea, and was drawn to this powerful evil force. It decided to temporarily set aside its hatred for the Alliance, surface, and seek the possibility of cooperating with the Dark Star's power.
Xuan Yuanche and Su Yao knew they would not only face the unknown dangers within the Illusory Realm, but also be wary of the Shadow Cult and the Sea Demon's schemes. With everything prepared, they led the alliance's elite cultivators on their journey to the Illusory Realm. The fate of the world once again hung in the balance, and whether they could find the Holy Scripture of Light amidst the numerous crises and successfully resist the power of the Dark Star became the question in everyone's mind.
