Chapter 911: No. 3 Floating Island! Void Divine Temple!

~6 min read 1,108 words

Xu Jingming guessed that the accommodation for Aurora-level core members wouldn't be poor.

But when he actually saw his lodging, he was still slightly stunned.

This was actually a floating island!

The floating island was huge, roughly the size of thirty soccer fields.

On both sides and directly ahead stood three-story luxury villas.

In the center was a square paved with Minghui stone, its hardness comparable to Class-D alloy.

At the rear was a large open-air training ground, beside which lay an open-air swimming pool.

Elsewhere, exquisitely crafted rockeries and flowing streams had been installed.

Even the decorative trees and flowers seemed to be no ordinary specimens, emitting faint, serene fragrances.

"The environment is quite nice."

Xu Jingming stood on the square, scanned the surroundings, and nodded in satisfaction.

"It's really a floating island?"

Su Qingli, head of Lei Ting Martial Arts Gym, couldn't help but whistle at the sight.

Blue Star's scientific technology couldn't produce anti-gravity engines.

Such floating islands could only be seen in virtual worlds.

Yet in the Xinhuo World, they had become reality—and were now their future residence.

"My Xinhuo Divine Temple has twenty-seven floating islands; yours is No. 3.

No. 1 and No. 2 floating islands are occupied by the High Priestess and another Aurora-level member."

The Moonshadow Cleric smiled, "The sanitation on the floating island is handled by intelligent robots; once the island's central AI confirms your identity, you may operate it.

Of course, if you wish to hire someone else for cleaning, you may do so independently."

The twenty-seven floating islands of the Xinhuo Divine Temple vary in specifications.

Among them, the first five are the highest-specification islands, controlled by the High Priestess.

Including Xu Jingming, only three are currently occupied.

Even he could only reside on the slightly inferior No. 7 floating island.

And this is the privilege of Aurora-level members.

Hearing this, Xu Jingming looked ahead and indeed spotted two floating islands about three to four kilometers away on either side.

One was roughly the same size as his own—that must be No. 2 floating island, occupied by the other Aurora-level member.

The other floating island appeared much larger, and the entire island looked far more refined.

That must be No. 1 floating island, occupied by the supreme power, Emers.

Glancing downward, Xu Jingming also spotted a Gao Ta to the lower right.

The tower stood three to four hundred meters tall, piercing the clouds; its peak was less than two hundred meters below the floating island.

The Gao Ta had an ancient, simple design; with his vision, Xu Jingming clearly saw intricate patterns carved into its outer walls.

Thin strands of spatial fissures encircled the Gao Ta, giving off a peculiar sensation of both weight and danger.

"That's the Po Xu Gao Ta?" Xu Jingming asked curiously.

"Correct."

The Moonshadow Cleric nodded, "Your Blue Star's psychics haven't all arrived yet.

After three days, when everyone is gathered, the High Priestess will personally open the Po Xu Gao Ta."

"Po Xu Gao Ta..." Xu Jingming's eyes gleamed.

This mysterious tower would likely grant him many Psychic Points.

"That statue...?"

At that moment, Ling Shuang suddenly let out a soft exclamation, gazing in a certain direction.

Xu Jingming instinctively followed her gaze and saw a massive statue.

The statue stood over a hundred meters tall, depicting a beautiful woman.

The sculptor's craftsmanship was superb; Xu Jingming could even sense from the statue a feeling of benevolence and greatness.

"That is the statue of Kong Shen, the founder of our Xinhuo World."

The Moonshadow Cleric's face showed a touch of reverence, "She sacrificed her life to preserve the flame of humanity.

We have erected this statue for her, to receive incense offerings for ten thousand generations."

He paused, then looked at Ling Shuang and said:

"Kong Shen's foremost disciple founded the Void Divine Temple in the Xinhuo World; it lies not far from this statue.

You are a space-type psychic—when you have time, go visit. You should gain considerable benefits."

He had already learned of Xu Jingming's, Ling Shuang's, and Su Qingli's psychics through the data uploaded by Meng Yu and others.

"Thank you for the reminder, my lord."

Ling Shuang's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this.

"It's nothing, just a small favor."

The Moonshadow Cleric smiled, then turned to Xu Jingming:

"The High Priestess spends most of her time on No. 1 floating island.

If you have any matters or questions, you may go directly to the island to find her."

This was a privilege reserved for the High Priestess's students.

However, the High Priestess had previously given instructions: Xu Jingming was an exception.

"Understood." Xu Jingming gave a slight nod.

"The rating certification is over, and you've settled in. Now I should return to report to my teacher."

"May my lord depart in peace."

The Moon Shadow Divine Official flew away, and Xu Jingming led Su Qingli and Ling Shuang toward the villa in the center.

He was eager to find out what rights his Aurora-level access would grant him in the Hearthfire Divine Temple...

Beneath the massive statue of the Void God stood a large incense altar.

People came and went without end, day after day, the incense never ceasing.

About four hundred meters from the incense altar stood an ancient temple.

This temple was smaller than the Hearthfire Divine Temple, yet its ground area was equally vast.

The entire temple appeared hazy, as if existing independently from the surrounding space.

This was the Void Divine Temple, the sacred ground of space-affinity adepts.

When Ling Shuang and her group arrived above the floating island above the Void Divine Temple.

Deep within the Void Divine Temple, an elderly man with white hair, seated cross-legged on the ground, was awakened.

He opened his eyes, and his gaze was not cloudy like that of an ordinary elder.

Instead, it was crystal clear, as if stars were being born and destroyed within them.

"Hengyang, come to me."

A low voice echoed through the space.

The next instant, the space before the elder blurred.

A man in his thirties, clad in black armor, teleported into view.

"Teacher," the armored man bowed respectfully to the elder.

"I sensed the aura of the artifact the teacher left on Blue Star."

"Find that person. I want to know everything about him."

The elder spoke in a low voice.

"Yes, Teacher."

The armored man gave a slight nod, his form blurred, and vanished instantly from where he stood.

"If this is the one chosen by the teacher, perhaps the lineage can continue..."

The elder slowly closed his eyes, and the entire space fell silent once more.
