Chapter 253: Chapter 216: Palm Leaf Fan +8

That Treasure Sword was the Emperor’s Sword, quite famous among the people of the Golden Sparrow Country and rumored to be an Ancient Divine Artifact of immense power.

The moment the Emperor’s Sword appeared, the entrance to the Corridor of Chaos swiftly turned golden. Light swirled and flowed, forming a vortex.

"Go!"

The white-haired elder let out a soft shout. The disciples of the Jade Mountain Sword Sect sprang into action, pouring into the glowing vortex. In total, they numbered nearly three thousand.

Among them was a tall man. Had Li Longyu been there, she would have recognized him. It was none other than the senior disciple who had once guided her out of the palace: Mo Qiu!

Apparently, Yan Bingzhang’s Blood Armor Corpse Soldiers had failed to capture him!

After all the Jade Mountain Sword Sect disciples had entered the Corridor of Chaos, the white-haired elder withdrew the Emperor’s Sword. His figure flashed like lightning as he flew inside just before the entrance could revert to normal.

Just then, the Galaxy Airship arrived above Linggu Mountain.

By this point, no one was left to block people from ascending the mountain. Wang Yi and his group disembarked from the Galaxy Airship without encountering any obstacles.

Li Longyu was a little confused upon arriving. But as she approached the entrance to the Corridor of Chaos, her body began to glow with points of starlight.

The entrance to the Corridor of Chaos was inexplicably affected by this, transforming into a starry vortex. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"Huh? That’s strange. I think I’m hearing things. It sounds like someone inside is calling my name!"

Li Longyu said to Wang Yi, pointing at the starry vortex.

"You’re a plot character; you have a mission in the Corridor of Chaos. Don’t be afraid. Come with me, and let’s see what kind of story the system has in store for you!"

Wang Yi put away the Galaxy Airship, took Li Longyu’s right hand, and led her slowly into the Corridor of Chaos.

Wang Bushi, Xiang Yun, Hu Shenji, and the eight Martial Saints followed closely behind.

After entering the starry vortex, Wang Yi saw a flash of light before darkness fell. When he took his next step, he arrived on a stretch of shattered land.

This land seemed to float in the Starry Sky. Directly ahead was a straight, stone-paved road flanked by several tall towers. In the distance, at the end of the road, stood many buildings, but they were all in a state of ruin.

"DING! You have entered the Corridor of Chaos and have been assigned a random route. The first stop is the Zombie Chaos City of an Abandoned World. Difficulty: Three Stars."

"DING! Alert: The current Chaos City is not an exclusive station. It is teeming with numerous zombies, mutated zombies, and super zombies. Slay the Sewn Zombie King Alegu to obtain a hidden Treasure Chest. You may leave after passing through the Chaos City!"

"DING! Alert: This Chaos City has anti-air towers. Please exercise caution when flying!"

"DING! Alert: You can retreat through the teleportation channel to leave the Corridor of Chaos, but you will forfeit your current exploration attempt and will be unable to re-enter!"

"DING! Escorting plot character Li Longyu into the Corridor of Chaos, mission complete. Rewards: one Information Scroll for the Corridor of Chaos, one Green Chaos Blind Box, and one Green Chaos Egg!"

"DING! Li Longyu’s plot mission has been updated. Please escort Li Longyu successfully through three stations in the Corridor of Chaos. Mission completion rewards: one Information Scroll for the Corridor of Chaos, one Blue Chaos Blind Box, and one Blue Chaos Egg!"

A flash of light appeared before Wang Yi as the reward items materialized.

He quickly stored them away and shouted, "Everyone, advance on the ground and begin the sweep! Yu’Er, get on the chariot with me. Hai Zhongxian, you’re on guard duty!"

As he spoke, Wang Yi brought out the Bronze War Chariot.

Li Longyu was quite excited. She climbed onto the Bronze War Chariot, mounted a machine gun, and said, "Wherever the fight is, I want in!"

Wang Yi also boarded the Bronze War Chariot and ordered it to move forward slowly. Only then did he take out his recent mission rewards to inspect them.

Meanwhile, back on the summit of Linggu Mountain, another flying vehicle landed.

This aircraft was made primarily of bronze, with ancient runes carved on its surface. It was a single-person fighter from the Ancient Barbarian Country.

The fighter’s cockpit door opened, and Gu Man Wanshou, the Emperor of the Ancient Barbarian Country, stepped out. He raised his right hand, revealing a Bronze Bracelet on his wrist. At that moment, the Bronze Bracelet lit up like a Flashlight. Its light enveloped the Bronze Fighter, causing the craft to shrink rapidly and fly into the bracelet.

Gu Man Wanshou turned to look at the entrance to the Corridor of Chaos and said in a low voice, "Li Longyu of the Golden Sparrow Country, I’ve tracked you down. You can’t escape. You are destined to become my slave, to bear the son of an Ancestral Witch for me, and to continue my clan’s destiny!"

As he spoke, Gu Man Wanshou strode toward the entrance of the Corridor of Chaos. A golden Round Axe was slung across his back, and it began to glow, reactivating the portal once again.

Gu Man Wanshou quickly entered.

Immediately after, three streaks of sword light descended. They were the Island Lord of Changqing Island from the Celestial Net Country, the Golden Core Cultivator Changqingzi, along with Wei Shenming and Bai Xianyi, who had all arrived via Sword Control.

"The Corridor of Chaos has opened! Follow me inside to find the Secret Treasure!"

Changqingzi let out a soft shout and simultaneously took out a golden Jade Pendant.

The Jade Pendant looked unremarkable, but it shot out a fluorescent beam. The beam flew into the entrance of the Corridor of Chaos, causing it to quickly transform into a glowing vortex.

Changqingzi, Bai Xianyi, and Wei Shenming quickly flew into it on their swords.

The next moment, the three of them also, unexpectedly, arrived in the Chaos City of the Abandoned World where Wang Yi was.

However, they were on a different stone-paved road.

By this time, Wang Yi’s team had already followed their stone-paved road into the ruins of Chaos City.

Wang Yi, meanwhile, was examining the Information Scroll about the Corridor of Chaos.

[Information Scroll: The Corridor of Chaos has a total of 16 stations. The difficulty of these stations is rated from One-Star to Nine-Star. After clearing each station, you can choose your next destination from three options. The further you go, the higher the difficulty. Clearing all 16 stations will allow you to reach the Chaotic World Royal Court. After the third station, when faced with a choice, you can use this Scroll to travel to a random Five-Star station.]

’Huh? So the Corridor of Chaos is some kind of competitive, level-clearing game?’

Wang Yi took note, then looked at the Green Chaos Egg. He discovered that this Chaos Egg could hatch a territory’s Exotic Beast.

Wang Yi hatched it and immediately received a system notification: "DING! Congratulations, you have obtained the Territory Servant Beast: Waiter Kangaroo!"

"DING! This Servant Beast has been automatically sent to your territory. It is hardworking, friendly, and active, and possesses the skill [Language Proficiency]. In the territory, it can work autonomously, for example by helping pedestrians carry goods and luggage. Please explore its other capabilities on your own."

’A Waiter Kangaroo? I guess that’s okay.’

Wang Yi imagined a kangaroo helping people carry luggage at Eggshell Pier, or working as a waiter in the First Dining Hall, serving tea and food to customers, and thought it was actually quite interesting.

’Might as well open the Green Blind Box, too!’

This time, Wang Yi didn’t bother with any superstitious rituals. Under Li Longyu’s curious gaze, he opened the Green Blind Box he had just received.

"I choose the Palm Leaf Fan!"

Wang Yi immediately responded to the system, and a simple, unadorned fan with a jade-like luster appeared before him.

The fan was, of course, the Palm Leaf Fan. Golden light flashed across it eight times, causing it to grow slightly larger.
