Chapter 1194: Seeing ghosts!

"What is this? Could it be that Cloud Mist Heaven and the Butterfly World are related?"

"Even as strong as Heitan Sha Old Ancestor, he actually lost his voice at this moment!"

"Many Strange Palace members stared in utter shock at the gigantic butterfly phantom hovering between the void passages."

"They once again felt a fear of being dominated!"

"This gigantic butterfly phantom had a form like the boundless sea of stars, its body shimmering with Divine Light, the power of time flowing between its left and right wings forming a countercurrent, while its body was intertwined with 'Dao' and 'Power', utterly terrifying."

"Heitan Sha Old Ancestor exclaimed in shock, 'The power of this butterfly phantom absolutely surpasses Cloud Mist Heaven itself! I sensed the power of time; this aura is just like back then!'"

"Other powerhouses likewise showed looks of horror on their faces."

"Simply because, when they passed through the Butterfly World back then, they experienced a life-and-death catastrophe."

"That butterfly merely flapped its wings slightly, and it was an incredibly terrifying killing intent!"

"A large number of powerhouses were swept into the storm, and in the blink of an eye they were reduced to ashes."

"This is an incredibly painful memory!"

"Actually, the high-ranking members of the Strange Palace, Heitan Sha, knew that their Strange Clan's arrival at the World Tree was not limited to just this batch."

"But after arriving at the World Tree, they shockingly discovered that there were no previous Strange Clan powerhouses."

"They were the first wave to descend upon this place!"

"Then the truth is only one: the previous waves of Strange Clan powerhouses have all perished!"

"Moreover, the strength of those previous waves was greater than theirs."

"\"What secrets do the Butterfly World and the Giant Palm World actually hide? \""

"Heitan Sha's voice began to tremble, and his eyes seemed to reflect countless images from endless ages past."

"That scene, he will never be able to forget!"

"Too many Strange Palace powerhouses have been destroyed!"

"Heitan Sha stared fixedly at the butterfly phantom above his head; the patterns on its wings, the Dao Resonance flowing from its body, and that domineering aura surpassing the Dao Lord realm—everything was all too familiar."

"\"This is the aura of the Butterfly World! \""

"Heitan Sha finally declared."

"Everyone was startled."

"How could such a heaven-defying treasure possibly end up in Yunlan Potian's hands?"

"Yunlan Potian was originally an obscure nobody, yet possessing such a treasure, he directly ruled over a heavenly domain for endless ages."

"If the Strange Palace were fortunate enough to obtain this item, the current situation in the upper realms would certainly not be so passive; indeed, the World Tree would have already been destroyed, and they would have long since embarked on their return journey!"

"\"Do not disturb Him! \""

"Heitan Sha's face showed an unprecedented caution as he ordered the many Strange Palace powerhouses."

"Only the Nether Formation Elder and the Xuanji Holy Lord in the field remained composed."

"The Xuanji Holy Lord furrowed her brows slightly."

"Earlier, when the third senior brother Chen Zhangsheng descended into the Eclipse Vein Star Sea, he spoke of his journey to the Butterfly World."

"She was very curious."

"An item from the Butterfly World actually ended up in Cloud Mist Heaven?"

"Beside them, Heitan Sha and the others again raised their evaluation of the Xuanji Holy Lord: \"White, although you haven't experienced that past catastrophe, yet seeing such a treasure you can keep your composure, showing your disposition is indeed not ordinary. \""

"Other powerhouses also carefully observed the butterfly phantom, and quickly they reached the conclusion: 'This is absolutely not the true Butterfly World; perhaps it is a treasure stained with the Dao Resonance of that world!'"

"\"Excellent! Compared to the Butterfly World, this item's aura is utterly incomparable! \""

"Meanwhile, the Nether Formation Elder fell into a dazed, intoxicated state; his hands constantly shifted, as if in a frantic dance, actually continually deducing the formation patterns. He excitedly shouted, 'I've caught a glimpse of Cloud Mist Heaven! Give me time! Give me time!'"

"Heitan Sha nodded secretly; with the Nether Formation Elder's assistance, this expedition will surely return successfully."

"Next, under the Nether Formation Elder's guidance, the crowd continually wandered through the spatial gale."

"But soon they sensed a spatial force trying to forcibly slice them apart."

"Heitan Sha Old Ancestor's face turned somewhat grim."

"This is obviously a terrifying man-made power!"

"He raised his head to look into the dark depths of the void passage and coldly said, 'Yunlan Great Emperor, is it you making a move? Speak! Speak!'"

"In the darkness, no one responded, but a faint cold laughter could be heard."

"\"Boom boom boom! \""

"Many Strange Palace powerhouses were directly split into over a dozen teams, ultimately turning into streaks of dark light that fell into another world."

"Amidst a spatial turbulence, the Xuanji Holy Lord forcibly steadied her form."

"Not long after."

"She fell into a tranquil mundane land, furrowing her brows slightly, wondering if this was Cloud Mist Heaven."

"Why could she sense no trace of stellar power?"

"The Xuanji Holy Lord probed the surroundings."

"Here the scenery was picturesque; between the mountains and waters there were low-roofed houses with cooking smoke rising lazily, there were oxen and horses plowing the fields, heads down in hard labor, and there was a bewildered-faced farmer; they sweated till the soil beneath their crops, put down their hoes, and looked at the sudden influx of many uninvited guests, their honest faces momentarily unable to react."

"Many farmers scratched their heads, looking at each other, seemingly asking who these outsiders were."

"They toiled day and night here, returning with hoes under the moonlight, never having seen outsiders before!"

"Especially these people each had black smoke rising from their bodies, like ghosts; even under the sun they looked extremely terrifying!"

"\"What monsters are these? \""

"\"Could it be that we're seeing ghosts in broad daylight? \""

"\"How terrifying! My fields, the wheat has turned black, oh my goodness... they have withered. \""

"Many farmers began to whisper among themselves, their simple faces showing a hint of fear."

Those who come are not good!

Xuanji Holy Lord gazed at these unworldly faces, seeing no clue, then suddenly she looked at her own jade hand.

No! No!

Her cultivation has been suppressed!

This place is not normal!

She slightly tilted her snow-white neck, raised her head to gaze at the firmament; above the firmament a golden sun shone in all directions, and faintly a supreme will overlooked all beings, towering over everyone.

Xuanji Holy Lord murmured, "This might not be Cloud Mist Heaven, but a secret realm."

She had sensed that this place seemed to call itself a world of its own, with the sun, moon, and stars revolving, yet none of it was real, but rather a manifestation of Dao Resonance.

She turned her gaze elsewhere, and one after another, other experts of the Strange Palace also fell here.

The Nether Formation Elder observed the surroundings with a doubtful expression, his hand's spiritual technique shifting, then he muttered, "Marvelous, marvelous! The dream power and temporal power here are actually so profound!"

Boom—boom—boom!

Not far away, dozens of Strange Palace experts' silhouettes fell from the sky.

Many ordinary people of the fields looked on in shock as the fields were corrupted into blackness.

My wheat field!

Someone cried out in anguish, face showing pain.

In the wheat field, a black-robed man of the Strange Palace slowly surveyed the surroundings, sneering, "Just what is Yunlan Potian up to? Does he think this can stop our advance?"

Thud!

Thud!

Upon hearing the name Yunlan Potian, the many ordinary people in the wheat field immediately knelt on the ground, "The name of the Emperor!"

The Nether Formation Elder looked at the black-robed man, "Eclipse Wind Elder, search their soul, see what this place actually is."
