Chapter 1100: Chapter 468: Master of the Holy Temple, Three Great Emperor Stars! (Part 2)

At the center of the hall.

A domineering figure clad in golden battle armor trembled slightly. It stood at a height of five meters, like a towering iron tower, its body draped in a massive armor weighing tens of tons, with a cruel and fierce outline. Particularly notable was the enormous lion king head on its chest, roaring.

Baring its teeth and claws, vivid and lifelike.

The lion king’s head, its eyes suddenly lit up like undying flames.

"Roar..."

It was just about to roar.

"Boom!!!"

The so-called undying flames extinguished instantly.

An overwhelming and terrifying supreme force pressed down, like a colossal mountain, crashing onto the shoulders of the seventh layer guardian.

He knelt heavily, his entire being crushed forward.

His hands and feet pressed into the ground, creating four deep pits, sparking golden-red flames, yet he still couldn’t make his massive body stand.

This figure, with two dazzling sun emblems on its shoulders, was once called the Lion King, revered by the world, commanding the Lion Legion. At this moment, the Lion King submitted to a greater king, bowing its head. A calm figure clad in a black-gold dragon elephant fighting suit walked past him, leisurely.

"Uh..."

"Thud!"

The lion king’s head sank into the ground, and the glowing red light extinguished again.

"His aura can probably rival a Peak Sect Leader."

"In other words, the topmost level of the Beidou Holy Temple, the Beidou Seven Halls, the seven guardians are likely all at the Peak Sect Leader Level. This Conquest City is indeed not weak, only the world has long fallen, and they have all turned into neither living nor dead monsters, with only residual obsession attempting to guard the last holy land..."

Bai Xiao, hands behind his back, quickly floated into the Seven Star Secret Technique Hall.

The basic layout here was similar to the ordinary secret technique hall at the beginning, except the Seven Stars Secret Book Hall was broader, more enormous.

He wandered alone within.

Bai Xiao shuttled between the obsidian bookshelves, searching for secret techniques similar to the Qi Hole Map from before. His movements were incredibly swift, and he soon reaped many rewards. Instantly, several secret techniques related to air holes were extracted.

The Seven Stars Secret Book Hall, worthy as an upgraded version of the ordinary secret technique hall.

The quality of secret arts here was significantly stronger.

In the previous ordinary secret technique hall, the most a Qi Hole Map could contain was seventy-seven. And now, maps with seven or eighty air holes were abundant.

Bai Xiao even found a secret technique with over two hundred qi holes.

"Heaven and Earth Spring"

The air holes within this should have a large overlap, but the remaining new qi hole locations are likely to be abundant, bringing him over a hundred new qi holes.

Looking at it, Bai Xiao found an unexpected surprise.

"Once a cultivator lights up three hundred and sixty-five qi hole positions in their body, they can form the number of stars in the universe, and the qi hole map will automatically operate and break through. Over time, more air holes will be lit."

His gaze slowly swept across the content of the "Heaven and Earth Spring" secret technique.

"I wonder, after balanced conversion and enhancement, if the Ninety-nine Qi Hole Secret Skill will also have this characteristic? If so, then I just need to get more than three hundred and sixty-five qi hole positions, and I won’t need to worry about the follow-up. The Ninety-nine Air Hole Secret Skill can autonomously operate and break through."

Bai Xiao, with a thought, instantly put away all the air hole maps.

He turned slightly.

"Swoosh!"

Beidou Holy Temple, top of the sixth layer.

"Boom!"

A formidable guardian, without warning, crashed heavily against the wall, creating a giant dent and crack. With a thud, the body fell powerlessly, silent. A black figure slowly floated over.

Two minutes later, Bai Xiao left.

The sixth layer of the Beidou Seven Halls should have contained some cultivation resources, but over time, eroded by fear. The substances, once akin to minerals and mercury, have lost their abnormal power, reduced to the mundane.

The fifth layer, the Holy Light Hall.

He forcefully intruded, glanced around briefly, and quickly left.

The Holy Light Hall, as the name suggests, is the energy core location for the entire Beidou Holy Temple. In the center stood a massive Holy Light Pool, with a Holy Light Crystal inside, already dim and cracked, almost about to break apart.

Time was running out.

The fourth layer was still cultivation resources.

Bai Xiao decisively descended to the third layer of the Beidou Seven Halls.

According to the stone inscription in the secret technique hall, this was the source of disaster.

As always, storming in, subduing the guardian.

He saw in the center of the hall, a black stone with a strong ominous aura, its surface mottled with bloodstains, flashing red light. The mysterious and eerie feeling lingered as if touching this stone would bring unimaginable disaster and misfortune. Even Bai Xiao frowned slightly, sensing its extremely vicious nature, and didn’t attempt to handle it.

"The Stone of Calamity..."

"It should be used in conjunction with the Void Well and the Star Compass."

Beside the stone, a line of characters was engraved, tightly arranged.

Bai Xiao paused in place for a moment.

Then, he directly arrived at the second floor of the Beidou Seven Halls.

Sure enough, in the central hall, there was a huge five-meter-tall compass, densely adorned with stars, twinkling in response to each other.

It exuded an incredibly mysterious and strange aura.

Vaguely opposing the Stone of Calamity Bai Xiao had just seen.

Similarly, a small line of text conveyed a meaning similar to before.

"What does this mean?"

He murmured to himself, pondering in his heart.

"Could it be that this world, before being completely shattered and fully invaded by Fear, had some form of self-rescue action? Related to these things?"

A thought flashed through Bai Xiao’s mind, and he slowly turned around.

By the staircase, an armored figure with a Half-step Grandmaster Level aura knelt on one knee, motionless like a statue. The obsessiveness contained within had already perished, easily erased by Bai Xiao, unable to stop his incursion. After all, the gap between a Grandmaster and those beneath is a massive chasm.

"Above, is the very top of the Beidou Holy Temple..."

Bai Xiao looked up, showing no hesitation at all.

His Grandmaster Level strength was his greatest support on this journey!

"Whoosh!"

The top floor of the Beidou Holy Temple.

Bai Xiao floated in, glancing at the dome, various colored Seven-Colored Crystals embedded, extraordinarily magnificent, giving a dreamlike feeling. One could imagine when this world still had sunlight, it must have been enchanting. But now, only some dim golden light filled the surrounding space.

He drifted along, flying past the long corridor.

Finally, a vast golden hall appeared before his eyes.

The hall’s center.

A primitive and desolate black well was embedded here, standing tall.

However, in Bai Xiao’s perception, this black well did not seem to be embedded on the floor but rather fixed within the space, difficult to move.

"So this is... the Void Well?"

He muttered the strange syllables this world used to refer to the Void Well.

The whole person gradually approached.

"Indeed."

Suddenly, a hoarse, unpleasant voice sounded beside the wellhead.

Bai Xiao turned his head to look.

There, was clearly an old man with only half his body remaining, withered and frail, resembling a mummy. He seemed to have been lingering here for countless years, only reactivating his vitality upon someone’s appearance.

"This aura..."

Bai Xiao’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Even though the other’s power was extremely weak, Bai Xiao could still sense an aura comparable to the Grandmaster Level, otherworldly in nature.

"Friend, we are of the same kind."

The withered old man suddenly raised his right hand, revealing a Skull Mark exuding a fearful aura on his ancient bark-like hand back.

"Hmm?"

Bai Xiao’s pupils shrank.

"The Demon Bird Intaro invades world after world in this manner. Imprinters are summoned by Fear Nightmares, taken to fragment worlds once invaded and destroyed by Fear. Eventually, they return to their original world, bringing back fear factors, becoming fear coordinates..."

"Hehehe, I was once the same."

The old man’s voice was hoarse, tinged with bitterness and boundless regret.

"The Demon Bird Intaro wanted me to become its third Fear Knight. But I chose to resist, and eventually, everything was destroyed..."

Bai Xiao halted, his feet slowly touching the ground.

He looked at the withered old man, using the language of this world, and asked.

"Who are you?"

The old man glanced sentimentally at the seven-colored dome and slowly said.

"The Master of the Beidou Holy Temple."

"And also one of the three Emperor Stars of the largest empire in this world."
