Chapter: Inevitable Battle
On the shattered "island," Zuo Sheng acted like a true senior, sharing all the information he knew about the ruins with Chen Chu.
However, this information was limited.
For instance, Zuo Sheng only knew that the void of this world spanned about a dozen Blue Stars in size, scattered with many great land fragments and ruins.
But over the years, most of the powers remaining in the ruins and stone statues had dissipated, turning into cold rock and soil floating in the void.
The power of these world fragments was also continuously being devoured by the true void, causing energy leakage and an eerie silence.
Currently, there was only a range of over ten thousand kilometers around the "world" center where the heavenly energy and some ruins were preserved intact, which was where Chen Chu and the others had entered.
After Zuo Sheng finished speaking, Chen Chu frowned slightly: "So this ruin has limited resources."
Zuo Sheng nodded: "That's right, not only are the resources limited, but the token in your hands can only last for seven days. After seven days, you will be ejected from the ruins."
"So if you want a powerful ancient alien power inheritance, it's best not to waste time on these broken ruins, especially fighting those war puppets."
Chen Chu slowly replied: "Thank you for the reminder, senior. In that case, we really can't waste time."
Boom!
A powerful aura erupted from Chen Chu, as streams of light shot out from the Xumi Bracelet in his hand, transforming into a set of dark red battle armor that covered his entire body.
Dressed in magnificent and fierce battle armor, and wielding a battle spear, Chen Chu resembled an ancient war god, his imposing presence becoming heavy and domineering as his shoulder-length black hair flowed, gazing at Zuo Sheng.
"Senior, I will take my leave first."
Zuo Sheng smiled and nodded slightly: "Be careful."
Bang! The ground within a hundred meters collapsed as Chen Chu instantly transformed into a black-red beam of light, shooting into the "cosmic void," shattering a series of meteors and vanishing from sight.
As he watched that black-red light disappear, Zuo Sheng's smile slowly faded, and he murmured to himself: "I didn't expect that after more than a decade, the Human Race Federation would produce such a genius. Even I feel a hint of danger from his cultivation at the ninth level of heaven."
"And that fool Xiao Tianyi, he actually went back to Blue Star. Doesn't he fear being surrounded and killed by those old fellows, exposing our whereabouts?"
As he spoke, Zuo Sheng's eyes turned golden, like the heavenly way overlooking all living beings, cold and indifferent, reflecting all the scenes of those entering the ruins.
Including An Fuqing, who was currently sweeping resources with ease.
Only when his gaze swept over the long-haired girl did Zuo Sheng's expression show a slight fluctuation, but it quickly changed again.
"Why so soon?"
Bang bang bang!!
More than two hundred kilometers away in the void, a blue-black electric light flashed, and five towering, shattered stone statues hundreds of meters high continued to crumble.
Amidst the flying debris, Chen Chu collected five level eight soul crystals. Then, his figure flashed as he shot into the dark void.
Naturally, Chen Chu did not fully trust Zuo Sheng's sudden words, or rather, he remained vigilant and on guard.
This person was very mysterious and also very dangerous; he didn't know what his true intentions were in approaching him. Anyway, it couldn't be just to inform him about the ruins.
Moreover, it was discovered that the previous Zuo Jing came from the cult of the evil gods, but her identity was too mysterious, and the trail went cold here, which also indicated that Zuo Sheng was not simple.
Zuo Jing turned out to be his avatar; it was even possible that Zuo Sheng wasn't his true body. This speculation filled Chen Chu with wariness.
So regardless of the truth of what he said, Chen Chu needed to quickly eliminate those stone statues, obtain enough soul crystals, and then any unforeseen changes would be inconsequential.
