Chapter 739: Chapter 378: Liberation of Canglan Star (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!)

Just as the Third Elder was about to speak, several figures appeared in the sky above Red Moon City, among them three were clad in silver-gray attire, precisely the gray-clothed disciples of the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall.

Among the three, a female disciple held the head of a woman with two horns on her head, while the other two disciples were gripping the necks of three old men, dragging them into the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall.

Among the three elders, who were seized by the necks like dead dogs, the Third Elder’s eyes almost popped out.

"City Lord?"

Among the three elders, the one from the Three-Eyed Race with three golden pupils was none other than Hu Jin, the City Lord of Celestial River Domain City, someone the Third Elder had encountered several times.

But now Hu Jin’s aura was weak, his body severely damaged, and he was probably left with only half of his life.

"Is our Domain City’s era truly ending like this?" The Third Elder looked at the three City Lords being escorted into the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, unable to believe it for a long while.

The Four Domain Cities had ruled over the Four Domains for over a hundred years, and people from the Four Domains prided themselves on entering the Domain City. Those within the Domain City believed it would rule eternally, for the Domain City’s might was overwhelming, and no other force could challenge it. Even the various top-level forces in the Four Domains believed this.

But now, the capture of the three City Lords undoubtedly signaled the complete end of the Domain City’s era.

Meanwhile, within Red Moon City, not only were the people from the three Domain Cities dumbfounded, but once the members of various major forces in Red Moon City confirmed that the captured elders were indeed the City Lords of the three major Domain Cities, they were all in shock.

Although all major forces had long known that the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall would replace the remaining three Domain Cities to become the first force to rule the Four Domains in a hundred years on Blue Star, they didn’t expect it to happen so soon.

"Quick! Hurry and inform the president, we must expedite our investment in Red Moon City! It’s certain that Red Moon City will become the First City of the Four Domains in the future!"

"Quickly inform the clan leader that the plot of land recently sold in Red Moon City must be purchased; that land will be crucial for the rise of our clan!"

"Tell the City Lord, don’t let those leaning towards the Genius Training Camp go to the three major Domain Cities anymore, they should come to Red Moon City immediately; if they’re late, it might be hard to enter the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall!"

...

Forces’ members within the city were frantically contacting their superiors, not only to inform them of the capture of the three Domain City Lords but also urging their own forces to pour all resources into Red Moon City immediately.

Upon receiving the news, each major force initially felt a surge of disbelief until confirmed several times over. Once confirmed without a doubt, they became filled with excitement and enthusiasm.

Although the era of the Domain City had ended, a new era had unmistakably commenced at this moment.

Whoever grasped the opportunity first would undoubtedly hold a higher status in the future; those forces who had been hesitating or placing their bets on both sides now cast everything onto the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, hoping to advance further in the new era.

While all major forces in the Four Domains were frantically shifting their alignment to the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, the atmosphere at the Restricted Area Sanctuary was also in turmoil.

"What did you say? The wardens from the other three Domains have also been captured? Even that Huang Jiu is now in prison?" Suihun was momentarily stunned as he looked at Vanessa, who was reporting the situation in the imagery.

Originally, he believed that the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall was incapable of standing against a top-level half-step Divine Fusion Realm expert like Huang Jiu. He didn’t expect that not only was Huang Jiu captured, but even the last three wardens of the Insect Race were brought back. The strength of the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall was truly defying the heavens.

Especially the capture of someone like Huang Jiu, it completely defied understanding of how the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall managed it.

"Is there possibly a Divine Fusion Realm expert backing the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall?" Suihun thought long and hard, and the only possibility he could conceive was this one.

Huang Jiu, as a mutant among the Evil Demon Race, also mastered the Ultimate Technique from the Demigod Inheritance. His strength was among the top tier among all half-step Divine Fusion Realm experts. Even the commander ranked first on Prison Dragon Star might not be able to defeat Huang Jiu, let alone capture him.

Only a Divine Fusion Realm expert could feasibly capture someone like Huang Jiu.

However, Suihun quickly shook his head, dismissing the idea.

He had meticulously investigated the circumstances of the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall and could confirm it as a native force from Canglan Star, specifically from the Human Race, a race unique to Canglan Star, not found on other life planets.

Canglan Star, merely a fourth-class life planet, and also a breeding planet, where simply producing a master comparable to a half-step Divine Fusion Realm expert was already a miracle of miracles. The birth of a Divine Fusion Realm master was utterly impossible, both in terms of physical conditions and practicality.

Leaving aside the issue of training techniques, ascending to the Divine Fusion Realm requires an exceedingly high degree of energy quality and quantity, typically only satisfied by a second-class life planet. This is also why Divine Fusion Realm masters typically reside at least on second-class planets.

As for whether it’s a Divine Fusion Realm master from another planet aiding the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, that, too, is impossible.

He was not a native of Canglan Star and was very familiar with cosmic affairs. Divine Fusion Realm masters, as starry sky warriors, are rare even within a galaxy and are almost constantly monitored by other forces; any movement by such beings is entirely visible as they have the capability to annihilate a planet and are pivotal in the battlefields of major Cosmic Empire forces, influencing a regional battlefield, and thus must be constantly monitored.
