Chapter 1424: The Chaos and Past (I)
“Senior is just a replica...” said Zhang An. “It doesn’t matter if a replica dies. Number Two is in Li Hao’s river now and the senior’s mission is complete. Are you really unwilling to give up a replica?”
“It’s not that, but that my replica can still function as a set of coordinates.” Celestial Pole waved him off. “My primary body is with New Martial. I have a hope of finding us only if my replica is here. The chances are very low once I leave!
“Silver Moon has certainly drifted out of New Martial’s range and we may be very far away from home. You’re not a replica, so it’ll be very unlikely that your grandfather can find you. Only with my replica here do we stand a chance!”
Upon further thought, Zhang An felt that the man made sense. But since Celestial Pole wasn’t willing to venture into the chaos, then... he stood almost no chance by himself. Although he’d left the world before, that was in the entourage of a powerhouse. He hadn’t been the leader of the group.
“I don’t actually think leaving Silver Moon is our most pressing concern,” Celestial Pole continued. “The key is that the world is about to rise in status—that is no small matter. A major world might not notice anything, but heavyweights that journey through the chaos might!
“Even if Red Moon doesn’t discover the change, I’m worried that wandering powerhouses will give us trouble. A newly risen world with a dao universe and lacking an exalted emperor... This will be a rich meal that anyone will want a bite of.
“Is Li Hao ready for this eventuality? Under normal circumstances, a world ascends when it accumulates sufficient powerhouses. If not, the master of the world holds the world on the cusp of ascension until there are sufficient powerhouses to advance with it. Only that will ensure that the world isn’t devoured by others!”
It was clear to see from this that Silver Moon was improving too rapidly. Not only did it not have a single exalted emperor, but there was a noticeable drop off in heavyweights after Li Hao.
It was typically exalted emperors that traveled through the chaos universe. Weaker exalted emperors were tough to do the same. Granted, if an Empyrean King didn’t care about being lost and didn’t have many ties at home... they could undertake the journey as well.
That was, assuming they survived it.
“Will we arouse attention from those things?” Zhang An’s eyes widened.
“Probably!”
