Swallowed Star: The Original Secret Realm

Chapter 218 The Legacy of the Wu Kingdom
On the cosmic ship, a star radiating ten-colored light, Zhang Yi stepped into the main hall and felt a sudden shift in space and time.

"Ok?"

Zhang Yi looked around. It was a dark void. At the end of the void was a floating throne. On the throne was a token similar to the golden token, but the token was purple.

"A purple token?" Zhang Yi asked in surprise. "Is this a higher-level token than a gold token?"

Unexpectedly, a purple token appeared inside the palace of this mysterious star.

This purple token is likely only of the second tier, and probably not the first tier.

After all, the first-level token represents a super being in the spaceship, namely the General.

Even if it's only a second-tier token, it's still remarkable. In the spaceship, it's second only to that general. A powerful person who possesses such a token is at least at the level of an Eternal True God, like Duan Donghe Wu, who should be at that level.

Just as Zhang Yi was pondering this.

"Welcome to the Hall of Wu's Heritage".

"As a challenger, you must pass through the spatial corridor to reach the throne and obtain the purple token to complete the initial test."

"Given that you are a Universal Venerable, you are only permitted to use offensive and defensive weapons below the level of a True God."

A deep, resonant voice echoed in the void.

These sudden words startled Zhang Yi.

"The Hall of Wu's Legacy?"

"Could this be the place where the Wu Kingdom, to which the spaceship belongs, left behind its legacy?"

According to the original text, the Kingdom of Wu, like the Kingdom of Jin, was a nation founded by the God-King of the Origin Continent.

It's long gone.

This spaceship was likely an army controlled by the remnants of the Wu Kingdom, attempting to enter the primordial universe, enslave the world beasts, and seek opportunities.

It's a pity that it failed.

Could it be that the Wu Kingdom left behind a legacy on this spaceship? This wasn't mentioned in the original work.

No one answered his question.

At the same time, a spatial corridor appeared before him, stretching from his feet all the way to the throne in the distant void.

"According to the voice just now, it meant I should walk along the spatial path to reach the throne." Zhang Yi pondered for a moment.

With a thought, he wanted to use spatial teleportation.

hum~
The previously unstoppable spatial traversal seemed to have encountered a huge obstacle and failed.

"The surrounding spacetime is too stable!"

"It seems the only way to get there is through the corridor."

Zhang Yi shook his head and smiled.

Come to think of it, if it were so easy to break through the rules, then the methods of the Wu Kingdom would be too weak.

"Walk."

Without further hesitation, Zhang Yi stepped directly into the corridor. The moment he stepped in, he felt that the surrounding space-time was sealed off. He could not teleport, and even his flight was limited to a radius of one thousand kilometers centered on the corridor.

It was as if a giant dome had covered the corridor.

We traveled for tens of thousands of kilometers.

Purple spheres of liquid descended from the dark void above the spatial corridor.

The purple spheres landed and formed soldiers holding weapons; there were twenty-four of them at a glance.

These soldiers resembled humans in appearance, with purple skin, two eyes, a nose, and two legs, except that they had four arms.

They look very much like the people of the Purple Moon Holy Land.

As soon as the twenty-four soldiers landed, their eyes gleamed with purple light, and they charged towards Zhang Yi, weapons in hand.

"These are... puppets?" Zhang Yi was a little uncertain. He could sense that these soldiers' aura was comparable to that of a Universe Lord. Upon engaging in battle, Zhang Yi instantly determined that these soldiers were only comparable to a first-tier Universe Lord in strength.

He naturally swept through the enemy forces whose strength was only comparable to that of a top-tier cosmic overlord.

It merely wielded a golden spear and unleashed the most powerful secret technique of the Lord of the Universe, swiftly defeating this group of soldiers.

Continue along the spatial corridor.

The scene played out as before, except this time it was twelve soldiers with the strength of a second-tier universe master.

Although the sergeant's strength has improved, it is still not enough for him.

The golden spears flashed, and the shadows of the spears were numerous, sweeping away the soldiers in one fell swoop.

Time passed, and after Zhang Yi killed six more soldiers, he approached the end of the corridor.

Three more soldiers appeared.

As soon as it landed, it roared and charged forward.

Zhang Yi moved swiftly, raising his golden spear high, transforming it into a small silver universe that hurtled towards the soldiers before him.

Moments later, the three soldiers were annihilated.

“These three soldiers are already comparable to a fourth-tier Universe Lord,” Zhang Yi thought to himself. “Fortunately, their defense is weak, and their defensive power is only equivalent to that of a Universe Lord wearing a high-grade treasure armor.”

Otherwise, with his top-tier fifth-order strength, it would be virtually impossible for three fourth-order universe lords wearing supreme treasure armor to kill him if they joined forces.

call!
Zhang Yi continued forward and soon arrived at the end of the corridor.

Taking a deep breath, I stepped out of the spatial corridor and into the purple throne that floated in the air.

When Zhang Yi was less than three kilometers away from the purple throne, a layer of purple light appeared, covering a ten-kilometer radius around the throne, forming a purple shield, within which he was naturally included.

A soldier clad in purple armor appeared on the purple throne.

"You're quite good. Even a Universe Venerable can make it this far. Now, all you need to do is stop me and get that purple token, and that will be your success."

The soldier in purple armor said with a smile.

"Huh?" Zhang Yi was taken aback.

Did they manage to steal the purple token by obstructing others? It seems this purple-armored soldier is quite powerful.

Moreover, the sergeant we encountered before seemed to be mentally impaired, while this one appears to possess independent consciousness.

Zhang Yi transformed into a streak of light and rushed towards the purple token above the throne.

"Do you think I don't exist?" The purple-armored soldier chuckled, and thrust his purple halberd at him with a fierce thrust.

Upon seeing the halberd thrusting towards him, Zhang Yi's spear erupted with a dazzling silver light as he unleashed the sixth-tier secret technique, 'Silver Space-Time'.

Bang! The two collided, producing a loud boom.

Zhang Yi and the soldiers in purple armor retreated simultaneously.

"Top-tier fifth-order strength?" Zhang Yi was shocked.

The purple-armored soldier's strength was actually close to his.

Fortunately, this time we don't need to defeat him; we just need to get the purple token.

A few minutes later, although the purple-armored soldiers tried their best to attack and block, the two were evenly matched. After a collision, Zhang Yi seized the opportunity and grabbed the purple token into his palm.

"Haha, congratulations! It's quite rare in the long history of my Wu Kingdom for a mere Universe Venerable to snatch a purple token from me. Good luck from now on," the purple-armored soldier said with a smile, before disappearing.

"The material of this purple token is very special." Zhang Yi glanced at the vanished purple-armored soldier and then examined it closely.

The token felt cool to the touch, its surface covered with intricate patterns, much like the golden keepsake from before.

However, the purple token exuded an aura of eternal immortality, an aura that was supreme and commanded submission.
