Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 6727

: Star Palace

The second level of the Galaxy Tomb.

A mountain stream, overgrown with weeds and rarely visited

, is mottled, a place untouched for countless lifetimes. Jagged mountains, like giant black iron claws, split the path. At the bottom of the valley,

fallen leaves, lingering for countless years, clogged with a faint fragrance of decay and miasma, clung to the cracks in the rocks. A temple appeared deep within the valley. Cone-shaped, it was constructed from rough boulders. Its surface bore no carvings or beasts, only pits ripped by wind and rain that, in the sunlight, resembled countless half-closed eyes. Moss, on the shady side, cast vast patches of pale green, its reflection floating in the dark green water like the backs of submerged beasts. Two massive, dark gates gleamed with a faint starlight, as if newly awakened, awaiting their destined companion. Just then, two graceful figures trod across this desolate land and arrived before these massive, dark gates. On the left stood a young woman in a star-shaped robe. Her golden robe shone with a dazzling starlight, and her aura was sublime, regal and imperial. Even within the Guanzi Realm, her extraordinary presence was evident, especially her eyes, a blend of gold and silver, radiant with infinite light. The faint insignia of the Galaxy Bounty Bureau could be seen on her golden robe, signaling her identity. “Xingzhao, slow down,” a nearby silver-robed woman called out to the girl on the left. The silver-robed woman was quite tall, her hair tied in a bun, and her face was cold and icy, exuding a chill. However, her aura was undeniably powerful, creating a zone of silence within the Guanzi Realm, a feeling of no-one being allowed to approach. “Elder Yinlan.” The golden-robed girl named Xingzhao turned, glanced at the silver-robed woman, and said, “This Star Palace doesn’t even exist in our General Administration’s records. Its appearance further proves that the opening of the Galaxy Ancient Tomb has brought about immeasurable new changes.” From this statement, it can be seen that the relationship between the two is not one of seniority over juniority, but rather of equality. Or perhaps Xingzhao is superior, but only because Elder Yinlan is her elder and protector, they are equals. “You’re right.” Elder Yin Lan locked eyes with the Star Palace. “We’ve managed the Galaxy Ancient Tomb for so many years. This time, with the unexpected occurrence of the Divine Hidden Beast and the major changes taking place in the tomb, as members of the General Administration, we have a heavy responsibility.” “We’ve managed the tomb for so many years, with limited gains. This time, something so drastic has occurred. We absolutely cannot let this newly discovered treasure fall into the hands of others…” Xing Zhao spoke, gazing at the massive, dark gate before them. She raised an eyebrow at Elder Yin Lan, “So, will you give it a try?” They were currently unsure whether the Star Palace was dangerous, so they were indeed cautious. But Elder Yin Lan also knew that if anyone truly needed to investigate, it would be him. After all, Xing Zhao’s status represented the future of the Galaxy Bounty Bureau, and he was specifically assigned to protect her. Earlier, during the battle of the cube, Xing Zhao had encountered a sixth-rank Primordial God of All Things, nearly causing a disaster. Fortunately, she used her life-saving item to narrowly escape the ordeal. Otherwise, this princess-like being would have perished. “Stand here, don’t get too close,” Elder Yin Lan warned. “Understood.” Xing Zhao, a woman of decisive action, stood still, her gaze blazing as she gazed at the Star Palace and the massive black gate. “Go quickly!” She was already impatient. Elder Yin Lan said nothing more. In the Guanzi Realm, she was completely vigilant, her various treasures ready for action. Her natal star realm also emerged, covering her body and providing some protection. “This Star Palace…” As Xing Zhao watched, she stood before the massive black gate. Even so close, it remained silent, and no defensive formations erupted, surprising Elder Yin Lan. “Could it be that due to its age, the Star Palace’s defense mechanisms have lost their effectiveness?” Elder Yin Lan wondered, reaching out and gently pushing the massive black gate. As her palm rested on it, it trembled slightly, and then starlight burst forth from the gate! Elder Yin Lan instantly withdrew his hand and stepped back, extremely vigilant. Xing Zhao also held her breath, staring intently at the massive black gate. The gate shone with brilliance, but instead of murderous intent, a picture emerged… That picture showed a secret chamber, and within it, a series of radiant star paths, approximately twenty centimeters long, swiftly flashed across the screen. Remember, within the Guanzizai Realm, the Primordial Dao is roughly ten centimeters long. “So long… This is the Primordial Dao of the Star Ancestor!!” Elder Yin Lan, an eleventh-level Primordial God of All Things, knew that the Primordial Dao was useless to her, but the Star Ancestor Dao… was of great use! It was the key to her future as a Star Ancestor. Thump, thump, thump! Her heart began to race. “What do you mean? Does this door forewarn us that the Star Ancestor Dao is hidden within?” Xing Zhao’s pupils constricted, stunned. “It’s likely… After all, it was left by the ancestors of the seventh-level galaxy back then.” Elder Yin Lan suppressed her excitement, trying to calm herself. She knew there were many competitors within the Galaxy Tomb. While she was powerful, she wasn’t invincible… So, after taking a deep breath, she said in a deep voice, “This huge black gate doesn’t have any defensive formations, but it seems incredibly heavy. I’ll try to push it away. You stand further away.” Xing Zhao said nothing, stepping back a distance, her eyes fixed on the black gate. Boom! This time, Elder Yin Lan placed both hands directly on the gate, gathering all the primordial power of all things and pushing it forward! Boom boom— the black gate trembled, causing the entire star point to tremble. For a moment, the rumble was so loud that even the valley shook. Such movement was quite noticeable in the dead silence of the world. After all, those who entered this undeveloped area generally did not dare to make any noise. Hearing this movement, Elder Yin Lan’s face grew tense. Knowing the stakes, she naturally tensed her entire body, channeling every particle of strength within her body, frantically pushing against the massive black gate. The gate, trembling constantly, finally showed signs of loosening, giving Elder Yin Lan hope. “Open!” she bellowed, her arms swelling, sweat dripping from her body, breathless, a radiant glow. The massive black gate trembled even more violently, finally moving at a faster pace, and a crack appeared before her eyes. “Open!” Xing Zhao clenched her fists, her face, imbued with imperial authority, a flicker of excitement.

Boom boom boom—

the gap in the huge black door was getting bigger and bigger.
