Chapter 2879: Purple Crystal Sea

Chapter 2879: Chapter 2879: Purple Crystal Sea

A few days later, a starship took off from Vermilion Phoenix Star, heading towards the depths of the starry sky.

The owner of the starship was Fang Bai.

And the passengers on the starship included the Great Might Divine King, Rongrong, and dozens of powerhouses from the Emperor’s Palace.

Their destination was the Green Cloud Star System, where they planned to respond to the Spirit Sea Divine Emperor’s summons and head through the Purple Cloud Star System to the Purple Crystal Sea.

Fang Bai learned from the Spirit Sea Divine Emperor that the Star-Devouring Beast was a very terrifying exotic beast capable of devouring celestial bodies and challenging the Divine Emperor God Emperor, so the journey to the Purple Crystal Sea was bound to be extremely perilous.

However, Fang Bai was fearless; he decided to treat this journey as an important trial on his cultivation path.

He believed that if he could overcome the challenge of the Purple Crystal Sea, his realm and cultivation level would rise to a whole new height.

The starship was specifically exchanged by Fang Bai in the Green Cloud Star System to lead the gods of the Emperor’s Palace in the starry sky for training.

Although Fang Bai had a giant Wind Eagle, the wind eagle’s back was crowded when carrying dozens of powerful beings from the Emperor’s Palace. In contrast, the starship was large and could accommodate hundreds of powerhouses with adequate speed, so they took the starship back to the Green Cloud Star System.

The star route to the Green Cloud Star System was already well familiar to Fang Bai, so his return journey was very fast.

Even so, they spent several years on the starship before finally arriving at the Green Cloud Star System.

During these years, their strength made significant progress.

Fang Bai advanced to the Half-Step Divine Emperor Realm aboard the starship.

Though the Great Might Divine Emperor and Rongrong did not further advance in realm, their strength improved.

Meanwhile, the collective efforts of the gods in the Emperor’s Palace could now challenge a true Divine Emperor Realm expert.

That means that these dozens of powerhouses together possessed the equivalent power of four Divine Emperor Realm experts.

On this day, the starship landed in the Green Cloud Star System, where the Green Cloud System Lord and Green Feather Divine King, sensing Fang Bai’s presence, personally came out to greet him.

"To think that it’s been less than ten years since our last meeting, and Friend Fang’s strength has already reached this level!"

When the Green Cloud System Lord and his son saw Fang Bai again, they were astonished.

They knew Fang Bai had impressive cross-level challenge abilities, and though he was currently at the Half-Step Divine Emperor Realm, even a true initial-level Divine Emperor Realm expert was already not his match.

Similarly, Rongrong, who possessed cross-level challenge abilities, now had enough strength to counter a Divine Emperor Realm expert like the Green Cloud System Lord.

Therefore, for Fang Bai and the Emperor’s Palace powerhouses, the Green Cloud System Lord and his son no longer held any advantage in strength, and their attitude was marked by utmost respect.

"I returned to the Green Cloud Star System this time, intending to stay for a while before heading to the Purple Crystal Sea. Would you have any interest in accompanying me?"

Fang Bai informed the Green Cloud System Lord and his son of the summons he received from the Spirit Sea Divine Emperor during his training in the Spirit Sea. They were surprised and thought it wasn’t surprising that Fang Bai’s strength had progressed so quickly, having been guided by a Divine Emperor.

"Since the Divine Realm is in trouble and the Divine Emperor summons us, we naturally should contribute our efforts!"

The Green Cloud System Lord almost immediately decided to accompany Fang Bai.

For the Green Cloud System Lord, meeting and fighting alongside a Divine Emperor was akin to forming a good bond, perhaps even receiving guidance like Fang Bai did, so why not?

As for the Star-Devouring Beast, he heard of it for the first time and wasn’t aware of its true strength, but no matter how formidable it might be, there was a Divine Emperor at the forefront; they would likely be assisting in the battle, not playing the main role in killing the beast.

During their stay in the Green Cloud Star System, Fang Bai contacted a dozen Divine Emperor Realm experts he had previous relationships with and informed them of the Spirit Sea Divine Emperor’s summons.

Some of these Divine Emperor Realm experts were nearing the end of their lifespans, others needed breakthroughs, and upon hearing the summons of a Divine Emperor, all agreed happily and expressed willingness to accompany Fang Bai to the Purple Crystal Sea.

Moving a dozen Divine Emperor Realm experts to accompany him, Fang Bai felt a sense of accomplishment, thinking that the power he brought should contribute in the struggle against the Star-Devouring Beast.

Fang Bai and the gods gathered on Green Cloud Star; after some rest and gathering sufficient cultivation resources, they set off for the Purple Crystal Sea aboard the Green Cloud System Lord’s starship.

On this occasion, the Green Cloud System Lord did not let his son, Green Feather Divine King, accompany him, instead leaving him behind on Green Cloud Star, so even if he fell in the Purple Crystal Sea journey, there would still be successors.

Other Divine Emperor Realm experts also left their juniors behind.

After all, this journey to the Purple Crystal Sea wasn’t standard training and carried significant risks.

Back when the Spirit Sea Divine Emperor met Fang Bai in the Spirit Sea Divine Palace, he revealed the star route to the Purple Crystal Sea to Fang Bai. After boarding the Green Cloud System Lord’s starship, Fang Bai shared this starry path with the Green Cloud System Lord, thus they followed this route, piloting the starship at full speed.

Many powerhouses were on board, and in their idle time, they could spar and exchange knowledge, so none felt bored or lonely.

Fang Bai was well aware of the uncertainties in this journey, and to maximize the gods’ strength, he no longer concealed his abilities in alchemy and artifact refining. He began to craft as many Divine Elixirs and Divine Artifacts as possible for the gods before reaching the Purple Crystal Sea.

He was now capable of crafting Divine Elixirs and Divine Artifacts of the Divine Emperor Realm, a boon for the Green Cloud System Lord and others.

Soon, their spatial divine rings were filled with sufficient Divine Elixirs and fitting Divine Emperor Realm divine artifacts, enhancing their overall strength considerably, boosting their confidence in the Purple Crystal Sea expedition.

The starship passed by one celestial body after another, traversed billions of miles on the star route, and Fang Bai noticed more starships heading towards the Purple Crystal Sea with his starship, primarily filled with Divine Emperor Realm experts.

Fang Bai communicated with some of the powerhouses on these starships and learned they too were summoned by a Divine Emperor at the Purple Crystal Sea to resist the Star-Devouring Beast’s invasion.

Since everyone shared the same goal, they grew closer, and many starships traveled together toward the Purple Crystal Sea, with the nearer the destination, the more starships gathering.

When they reached the edge of the Purple Crystal Sea, Fang Bai made a rough estimate and found that before and after their starship, there were thousands upon thousands of starships, grandly parading like a dragon, with each starship manned by several Divine Emperor Realm experts, making the momentum extremely impressive.

"Up ahead must be the Purple Crystal Sea!"

That day, Fang Bai sensed the surging divine power and, upon releasing his divine sense to explore, discovered that ahead of their starship lay a vast sea of stars, composed of countless Purple Divine Crystals, knowing that was indeed the Purple Crystal Sea mentioned by the Spirit Sea Divine Emperor, his mood naturally grew excited.
