Chapter 747 - 381: The Terrifying Canglan Star
Canglan Star, Red Moon City.
As one sky giant ship after another slowly docked at the spaceport, a large number of grandmasters and great grandmasters in pseudo-tier three battle armor emerged from the ships, attracting the attention of members from various forces of the Four Domains passing through the spaceport.
Since a few days ago when the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall captured the city lords of the Three Domain Cities and took over the Four Domains, Red Moon City has been visited daily by numerous experts. Although Red Moon City’s size still doesn’t compare to a Domain City, it has become the First City of the Four Domains, with the number of heavenly human realm grandmasters in the city far surpassing any previous domain city.
But now, the number of heavenly human realm grandmasters disembarking from the sky giant ships is actually in the tens of thousands, among them great grandmasters who make even heavenly human realm grandmasters feel suffocated.
This scale of heavenly human realm army would make even the students and elders of the former Four Domain Cities have palpitations and question reality.
In Domain Cities, heavenly human realm grandmasters are revered as elders; within the Four Domains, they can elevate a force to the top tier, being the rarest entities in the entire Four Domains.
Tens of thousands of heavenly human realm grandmasters gathering, such a scene is beyond what even elders of Domain Cities could dare to dream about. Yet here it is happening right before their eyes, leaving them clueless as to where all these grandmasters have emerged from.
Under the gazes of the crowd, these grandmasters seemed completely indifferent; instead, after stepping off the ships, they carefully observed everything about Red Moon City.
"Brother Hank, is this Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall really the great power liberating our Canglan Star? Why do I feel there are no strong individuals in the city?" A middle-aged giant from the Crystal Race, after sensing the entirety of Red Moon City with his Qi and Blood, looked curiously at Hank, who led the way this time.
At this time, not only the middle-aged giant of the Crystal Race but also dozens of great grandmasters of the Realm of All Things as strong as the middle-aged giant were looking at Hank, their eyes equally filled with doubt.
It was said that the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall liberated Canglan Star single-handedly, prompting these guardians from sheltered places on Canglan Star to rush to Red Moon City, eager to advance and retreat together with the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall.
Before leaving, the head of the Holy Hall, Soulshatterer, had already explained the stakes to the various shelters, so they were well aware that the entire Canglan Star was about to face a catastrophe.
They had thought that the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall would depart Canglan Star along with the Holy Hall. Unexpectedly, the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall chose to stay, not leaving with the Holy Hall, warming the shelters’ hearts toward the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, leading them to coordinate with Hank and gather high-tier forces from all shelters in the Restricted Area to help.
However, now that they have arrived at the main base of the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall in Red Moon City, they find themselves puzzled.
The might of the Insect Race is evident to all major shelters. It was thought that since the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall liberated Canglan Star, captured three guard captains from the Insect Race, and reportedly even caught one at the half-step Divine Fusion Realm, the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall’s strength must be formidable. But now in Red Moon City, apart from sensing a few great grandmasters, the number of heavenly human realm experts is only several hundred.
This level of strength isn’t weak, at least stronger than a typical shelter, but it’s hard to imagine how such a Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall could capture three legion-level Insect Race experts and one at the half-step Divine Fusion Realm.
Hank glanced at the doubtful and worried crowd and chuckled, "I understand your concerns. On the surface, there don’t seem to be any experts in Red Moon City, but the disciples taught by the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall are somewhat special and should not be judged by normal martial arts standards."
"Not judged by normal martial arts standards, what does this mean?" the middle-aged giant from the Crystal Race asked curiously.
Martial arts realms are fundamentally the basis of strength for these martial artists. The higher the martial arts realm, the higher the physical quality; each subsequent realm brings qualitative changes, elevating life to a higher level and creating unimaginable strength disparities.
"Regarding the other disciples of Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, I am not sure, but those gray-clothed disciples have the strength to fight across realms." Hank said with a bitter smile to the puzzled crowd, "The other day, I engaged in several simulation battles with a Blood Coagulation Realm disciple of the Realm of All Things from the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, and the result was my humiliating defeat."
"Losing to a Blood Coagulation Realm martial artist, Brother Hank? How is that possible?" The middle-aged giant of the Crystal Race responded, feeling like Hank must be joking.
Hank, an old-school great grandmaster of the Realm of All Things, ranks in the middle among city lords in the shelters. Compared to those higher-ranking city lords, he lacks only a bit in physical quality, but if Hank’s actual strength were to reach ten thousand tons, he could have been at the top tier.
Such a strong Hank losing to a Blood Coagulation Realm martial artist, or even a heavenly human realm grandmaster, seemed impossible.
"I know it’s hard to believe, but it’s true," Hank said with a bitter smile. "That gray-clothed disciple of the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, once transformed, had an actual strength close to seven thousand tons, not much less than mine. Moreover, this gray-clothed disciple had also reached the Realm of All Things with an extraordinarily strong body and mastered ultimate technique level martial arts, and thankfully did not use them during our battle; otherwise, I would’ve been defeated with one move."
Initially, when he wanted to seek guidance from Lin Qi, Lin Qi had directly asked him to engage in simulation battles with a Blood Coagulation Realm disciple, which made him a bit angry, feeling that Lin Qi was underestimating him.
He acknowledged the strength of the gray-clothed disciples of the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall but thought they were formidable only against other grandmasters or great grandmasters. Facing him, a great grandmaster of the Realm of All Things, it was impossible for high-tier extreme martial artists of the Blood Coagulation Realm to be his match one-on-one.
