Celestial Of The Void - 61 Eclipse Dimension

“Thank you for saving us,” smiled Shui Guiying, assessing the masked individual before him.

Gu Rain stayed silent while he held the unconscious Fen Hua over his right shoulder. Her injuries were severe, but they gave her a life-saving pill to keep her alive.

Before her injury, all three were finishing off two king ranked beasts as a transformed Fen Diao suddenly appeared before them. Such attacks were swift and precise, ready to puncture through the unsuspecting Gu Rain’s heart. Fen Hua immediately noticed Fen Diao coming between them so she pulled Gu Rain away and took the brunt of Fen Diao’s attack. Gu Rain turned to see Fen Hua as she pulled him behind her as a demonic hand punctured through her back.

Enraged, he quickly grabbed Fen Hua and thrusted out his strongest palm strike at the demon’s head, intent on killing them. Consequently, it felt like Gu Rain smashed his palm against a steel wall.

Unable to fight back a monster, Gu Rain tried to escape whilst carrying the unconscious Fen Hua. Shui Guiying just finished killing a king ranked beasts but was grabbed by the collar and instantly teleported to a region a few hundred miles away. Before he could say anything after seeing it was Gu Rain a roar could be heard from where they were earlier. A menacing aura grew stronger as it sped to their location in an outrageous speed they never felt before.

Having reached them, Fen Diao attacked once more as Shui Guiying tried to counter him. As they fought, Gu Rain took his time to stop Fen Hua’s bleeding and fed her a treasure medicine said to bring back the dead to life. Although the hole closed up, Fen Hua wasn’t waking up from the shock she received earlier from Fen Diao’s attack.

Meanwhile Shui Guiying was on the brink of losing against Fen Diao. With his little bit of qi left, he made a small mistake allowing Fen Diao’s attack to sneak in and give the killing blow. Fen Diao chuckled as he imagined his hand going through Shui Guiying’s heart but instead felt a strong resistance.

Fen Diao realized he had been stopped by an unknown cultivator, but chose to escape instead. If someone could stop his arm with little to no resistance, it was best to give up and do it once more at a later time. He didn’t want to deal with another situation like he did with the pale child. Thus, he left as quickly as possible.

“May I know who our benefactor is?” asked Gu Rain after stabilizing Fen Hua’s condition.

“We’ll talk after you three recuperate,” answered Silver emotionlessly under his mask.

“I’m sure you’ll figure it out but do not speak of it out loud. Follow me.”

The two grandmasters stayed quiet, Gu Rain carried the unconscious Fen Hua once more as they followed behind. It was best to accept their situation and go along with it. They continued following the mysterious masked cultivator, finally reaching their destination at Blue Dream City.

‘Where are all the beasts…?’ thought Shui Guiying staring at the empty city. His instincts told him that an unfathomable event was going to happen.

Finally, they reach the center of the city. Thousands of survivors bustled about and tended to their kins, neighbors, soldiers and strangers. Even then, no matter how busy these helpers were, nearly all of the survivors slowly halted and stared at the group of four. Especially at the individual with the black mask with the violet eye symbol.

Silver, under the alias of Kong Xing, stood before the huge and silent crowd of survivors. Many wore an excited expression, as others were sullen. Each and every one of them had mixed feelings of the ultimatum given to them by this masked individual. Before Silver had left to save Shui Guiying and the others, he sent a mental announcement to every survivor.

“Those who want to leave will follow Bu Keng through a hidden trail out of this city and into a safe spot within the vast forest. Once you leave, the trail will disappear and you will no longer be able to find Blue Dream City until it is unsealed in the later years,” monotoned Silver informing the survivors.

“If you choose to stay, you’ll be under our jurisdiction. You must follow our rules and if you break them, punishment can either be light or severe. Worst case scenario, many can result in the death of an individual or a group based on the results of the investigation. Any questions, concerns?”

Everyone stood there with furrowed eyebrows, finalizing a life changing decision. Many of them were regular citizens so they had no choice but to concede into staying with optimistic thoughts in mind. Others that were hesitating were once powerful clans with years of history, rooted firmly into their once now ruined home, Blue Dream City.

“As I was told when I was a young child, when a once in a lifetime opportunity arises, take it with a firm grasp and never let go! Our Wang Clan will join you without hesitation!” exclaimed Wang Bo in jubilation. After seeing what Kong Xing could do when they first got here, he didn’t mind joining such a powerful and mysterious group. Especially the help they have received was exponential. Under true power, others will bow before it but add benevolence, loyalty ensues.

Silver smiled under his mask, admiring the keen instincts of the Wang Clan ancestor. Soon after, the surviving clans decided to follow the Wang Clan’s decision. If the all powerful Wang Clan conceded to a mysterious person without caution, why should they? Everyone stayed firm with their decision to stay.

The natives of Blue Dream City didn’t want to lose nor leave their home, even if it helps gain reputation they would continue to protect it. And with such a powerful backer, albeit mysterious and suspicious, they had no choice but to follow through. Furthermore, many of the clans in par with the Wang Clan had underlying motives.

What can one small group of measly cultivators do? They would allow them to live in the moment but will swiftly take them down one by one. Yet, they could only bide their time as the small group had the Wang Clan backing them. No matter how many times these clans used underhanded assaults, they could never take down the Wang Clan.

There was a saying that spreaded through the other clans, “Heaven favors the Wang Clan, why bother trying?”

“I did not expect everyone here to stay but it doesn’t matter,” exclaimed Silver with a big grin hiding under his mask.

“In a few minutes, the Blue Dream City will vanish from this world into a dimension I’ve created. There will be ample resources within this world so your first mission is to find a suitable location to live in. Of course there are invisible boundaries that’ll stop you from entering a certain location outside of the city. The basic needs of clean water, land and vegetation will be met as the rest will be procured by yourself. Until then, I will announce other details at a later date once everyone has settled in.”

Silver then asked Wang Bo to gather the other patriarchs for an emergency meeting. After hours of debating, they finally came up with a decision for their first topic. The meeting was quite awkward, especially for Silver, as it concerned the name of the dimension. He had terrible naming sense, gathering a huge group of people for a simplistic decision. In his past life, his naming sense was so terrible that his two disciples did the naming for him.

After naming the dimension, Silver left the rest of the work to Wang Bo and Bu Keng. The Yong siblings had no interest in politics so they instantly backed out leaving Bu Keng and vouching for Wang Bo’s help. They came up with a plan to start the process of living, housing, currency, agriculture, rules, and other necessary arrangements.

Later that day, Silver flew outside the Blue Dream City’s wall and began activating the transferring array he created earlier. Although it would use a small amount of his qi, it was still mentally exhausting to make a whole city disappear as if some powerhouse destroyed it. He had to make sure his plan was truly foolproof, readily adding fake ruins after the transfer to fool the enemies.

If Wang Bo had told him correctly, there was a monster sealed under the city, protected by the Kiu Clan. Of course, Wang Bo didn’t know that Silver had taken care of that “monster” called Che Myoga. By using this method, Silver was to create a scene to surmise the destruction of Blue Dream City due to an ancient “monster” that was finally unsealed.

Without any useless thoughts, Silver activated the arrays to transfer Blue Dream City to the Eclipse Dimension simultaneously laying down the “ruined” city. To the nearby inhabitants, demons, beasts and cultivators, all they could see was ominous purplish light reaching towards Heaven emanating wrath and death. Those close to it became affected, decaying into corpses and becoming wailing ghosts that surrounded the now “ruined” city.

Finally, Blue Dream City was wiped off the map in the Constellation World.
