Chapter 838: A Trap Among Stars

Translator: LawEditor: Hitesh

In the starry void of Pan Gu world, stars seemed to be quite close to each other, but in fact, the distance between any two stars could take one hundred times longer than the entire life of a human Senior Magus to travel across. Even with so much time, a human Senior Magus might still not be able to reach one star from another.

A gigantic ship, which had a dragon head and a phoenix tail, and was wrapped in a splendid light, was moving swiftly in the starry void of Pan Gu world. The ship was over a thousand miles long, and on both its sides, eighteen pairs of roc-wing-like, enormous golden wings had been flapping quickly, generating fierce gusts of wind. Rapidly flowing golden streams of air puffed out from these wings, pushing the ship forwards at an amazing speed, even faster than the speed of light.

This was a sky-patrolling dragon ship, a warship of the ancient heaven. Ancient divine Gods used to patrol across the whole world and awe all Pan Gu world creatures with this ship.

A ship like this wasn’t produced with manpower. Instead, it was a naturally crafted, world-accompanying spirit treasure generated by the great natural rewarding power that occurred when the world was created. The total number of warships like this was one-thousand, two-hundred and ninety-six; this number could also represent the whole world. The types of this kind of warships included ‘one of integrity’, ‘five natural elements’, ‘six opportunities’, ‘seven stars’, ‘eight directions’, ‘nine grids’, ‘ten positions’, and the others.

The non-humankind intruded this world and started a long lasting war against the ancient heaven. Over a thousand sky-patrolling dragon ships had been destroyed in the war. Therefore, many people now believed that this kind of warship had already ceased to exist in the world. No one knew that Kua E and his brothers still had a sky-patrolling dragon ship. Although it wasn’t one of those famous ones, it was indeed a top-grade amazing treasure.

The flying speed of the sky-patrolling dragon ship was way faster than the flying speed of Kua E and his brothers themselves. Countless stars were left behind, as they smoothly controlled the ship to move forward, with the help of the strong magnetic tides between stars. Just like a ship moving in an ocean, the dragon ship swished along the magnetic tides, as nimbly as a fish.

Gradually, they moved deeply into the starry void, and no trace of living beings could be found anymore.

The surrounding stars looked like enormous eyes that silently stared at them. It made Kua E and the other thousands of divine Gods quiver, while looking at these stars in awe, for an unknown reason.

Some stars were sparkling brightly, and had countless palaces and mansions faintly visible on them. Those were homes of many ancient Gods, the owners of the stars. The ancient heaven was incredibly powerful, that every star had its owner, and the owner of every star had a giant number of powerful divine warriors under his or her command.

Back during the peak period of the ancient heaven, any order given by the five divine emperors could shake the starry void of the entire Pan Gu world, and make all living beings shiver, including the dragon-kind and the phoenix-kind. Back then, not a single race dared to go against the ancient heaven.

Eventually, this legendarily powerful ancient heaven fell. Among countless divine Gods, star owners and powerful divine warriors, only thousands managed to survive, including Kua E and his brothers. Not to mention the fact that the palaces and mansions on these stars had all been empty since long ago, and even the heaven on Sky Pillar was now cold and quiet. Most palaces in the heaven hadn’t been touched for countless years.

”Heaven, heaven!”

Kua E stood on the deck, sighed slightly and said, ”We follow the rules of our ancestors, stayed in the heaven generation after generation, never took anything that belonged to the humankind or any mortal race. Even for the meat and wine, we traded with our labor from those mortal races.”
