348: Blue Star Universe
Previously, Xun Xiuyuan had always regarded the Ling Tian Pagoda as a sanctuary, but it was only at this moment that he realized the Ling Tian Pagoda's true nature.
Infinitely far from the Yuan Ling Universe, there was a vast base.
The sheer size of this base was simply indescribable.
Even compared to the Silver Sea Universe's base, its vastness made the latter seem as tiny as a speck of dust.
On the enormous base, cities stood like forests, scattered like stars on a chessboard, presenting an incredibly prosperous cosmic scene.
The awe-inspiring scale of the base alone was enough to glimpse the powerful forces contained within this universe.
This was the headquarters of the Cosmic Alliance, and also the base of the Blue Star Universe.
At this moment, inside the Cosmic Alliance's headquarters building,
an old man in a white robe, who had originally kept his eyes tightly shut, suddenly opened them, and a strange light flashed within.
He muttered to himself, "Xuanhuang Pagoda?"
As he spoke, his gaze was fixed on a pearl in his hand that glowed with a faint light.
After a careful observation, the old man continued, "This sensation is so faint; it seems to be extremely far away. Where did that mysterious being go back then?"
Thinking of this, the white-robed old man's voice echoed in the ears of several hundred Saint Kings:
"I have an urgent matter to attend to outside. The affairs of the Cosmic Alliance will temporarily be left to your management."
The Saint Kings throughout the building, hearing the old man's voice, nodded in agreement, indicating that they would do their utmost to maintain the stability of the Cosmic Alliance.
However, the white-robed old man did not immediately go to search for the Xuanhuang Pagoda's whereabouts but instead turned back to the Blue Star Universe.
This white-robed old man was a very powerful Eighth-Tier Saint King in the Blue Star Universe.
Besides the cosmic cores of the Time, Space, and Light attributes, he had perfectly integrated the cosmic cores of the other eight attributes into his inner world.
As for the other three cosmic cores, it wasn't that he hadn't encountered them; it was just that he hadn't fully comprehended their laws yet. Even if he possessed these cosmic cores, he couldn't integrate them into his body, and doing so might even cause his own small world to become imbalanced.
The Blue Star Universe is an incredibly ancient universe with an unbelievably long history.
Legend has it that this universe was once the ancestral universe on the Cosmic Battlefield, and all subsequent universes were nurtured by the powerhouses of the Blue Star Universe.
Although this claim primarily circulates among the human race of the Blue Star Universe and lacks conclusive evidence, the antiquity of the Blue Star Universe is beyond doubt.
Over billions of years, a large amount of detailed information and documents have been left as corroborating evidence.
The establishment of the Cosmic Alliance was also first proposed and put into practice by the Blue Star Universe.
All of this fully demonstrates the powerful strength and long history of the Blue Star Universe.
After entering the Blue Star Universe, the white-robed old man, with the help of multiple teleportation arrays, finally arrived at a light blue planet. Although this planet was not large in the universe, it was simply insignificant for a powerhouse like the white-robed old man; with just a thought, his divine sense could easily envelop the entire planet.
However, the white-robed old man acted with extreme caution. He slowly descended at a port on the light blue planet, then took a spaceship and dutifully traveled to a small island in the middle of the ocean.
On the small island, two people were playing a game of chess.
When the white-robed old man arrived, he did not rush to speak but stood quietly to the side, observing the game.
Of the two people playing chess, one had a youthful, fair complexion, while the other had black hair and a black beard, dressed like a middle-aged man.
After a long time, the chess game finally ended.
The middle-aged man looked up at the white-robed old man and smiled slightly, but did not speak.
The young man, however, kept his gaze on the white-robed old man until the latter seemed a bit uneasy, then slowly asked, "Didn't I say long ago that we live in seclusion here, and unless it's an important matter, you shouldn't disturb us?"
His voice was clear and pleasant, as if he wasn't very old.
Upon hearing this, the white-robed old man immediately knelt on the ground and respectfully said, "Old Ancestor, Bai Chen knows your command, but this time there has indeed been an unexpected event. The aura of the Xuanhuang Pagoda suddenly appeared, and the Pagoda Pearl you entrusted to me has also lit up."
Saying this, Bai Chen raised the Pagoda Pearl above his head with both hands, presenting it to the young man.
The young man nodded slightly, signaling Bai Chen to rise, and at the same time took the Pagoda Pearl, examining it carefully.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man couldn't help but ask, "Second Brother, could it be that Big Brother's Xuanhuang Pagoda has appeared?"
His address of the young man as "Brother" seemed quite peculiar.
The young man nodded slightly, his gaze still on the Pagoda Pearl, and said in a deep voice, "It should have appeared, and it should be on the Cosmic Battlefield. If it were in a small universe, the Pagoda Pearl wouldn't be able to sense it."
After speaking, he returned the Pagoda Pearl to Bai Chen and instructed, "You go back first. For now, don't deliberately search for the Xuanhuang Pagoda's whereabouts. At least for a short time, don't act rashly. If the Pagoda Pearl's sensed aura strengthens, then come to me."
Although Bai Chen had many doubts in his heart, he still respectfully nodded and then left the Blue Star Universe.
After watching Bai Chen leave, the middle-aged man turned to look at the distant ocean and asked thoughtfully, "Second Brother, are you worried that Big Brother is still alive?"
The young man chuckled upon hearing this, and calmly replied, "What do I have to fear? I don't fear the living, let alone the dead? I'm just wondering, we've explored the secrets of the Ancestral Star for hundreds of thousands of years without any results. Could it be that only the bloodline of Blue Star can uncover this mystery?"
The middle-aged man remained silent after hearing this, and a deep look of distress appeared on his face.
The moment the Ling Tian Pagoda appeared, Xun Xiuyuan entered it, and Xiao Xuan immediately materialized.
Xiao Xuan looked very happy to finally leave that small universe.
Before Xun Xiuyuan could speak, Xiao Xuan spoke.
"Master, there's a cosmic core with the Light attribute there. This is a good thing; it's very valuable."
Xun Xiuyuan had originally wanted to acquire a cosmic core, but he hadn't expected Xiao Xuan to recognize it.
"Xiao Xuan! Is there a way to take it without anyone noticing?"
Xiao Xuan frowned: "Taking it is possible, but I don't know if it can be done without anyone noticing."
After a moment of thought, Xun Xiuyuan immediately said, "Forget it, let's save Titan first. If I can't take it without anyone noticing, I won't be able to keep that cosmic core."
Then, Xun Xiuyuan hid inside the Ling Tian Pagoda and teleported towards Titan's location.
When he saw the battlefield situation where Titan was, Xun Xiuyuan's mouth dropped open.
Titan had once again transformed into the appearance of a middle-aged strong man and had become an onlooker, watching the show.
On the battlefield, two female Saint Kings, one large and one small, were fighting with great enthusiasm.
