Chapter 559 Chapter 559 – Return
The two women were still discussing before Chen Heng, and both of them seemed to be pessimistic about their future. Chen Heng did not care about the issues they were discussing and just looked at the blonde girl sitting on the wooden chair. A nostalgic look appeared on his face.
The blonde girl was someone he had seen before. Back when he had just descended into this world, on Qika Star, this blonde girl had met Chen Heng once and had given him a certain amount of help back then that allowed Chen Heng to activate the inheritance of the initial space and obtain some things. It had also laid the foundation for him to come into contact with the initial space in the future.
Chen Heng should be grateful to her from this point of view. Many years had passed, and now, she was no longer that youth but had become this star’s leader. Her appearance was still the same as before, but her personality had become more mature and determined, with a hint of a leader’s demeanor.
‘Great.’ Chen Heng thought and smiled, then left.
An unknown aura remained, floating around and informing him of his existence. After leaving the palace, Chen Heng took a new path. He walked on this star and toured around various regions, carefully experiencing the situation on this star.
The situation on this planet was dire. This star had experienced a great battle at the king level back then. This battle level had long surpassed the limits of mortal imagination, reaching another level.
This star was known as the Golden Star. It must have been extremely powerful then, enough to command the world. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have used this name.
However, this star was almost destroyed after the battle. It was forcefully suppressed with power later on, barely maintaining its existence. The hidden danger had always existed but did not immediately erupt because of the seal.
And a new great battle erupted on this star more than ten years ago, triggering the seal. The foundation of this star’s existence was shaken, and it became more and more dangerous.
Now, this star had already embarked on the path of self-destruction. It was likely that this star would be destroyed in a few more years if Chen Heng did not come.
Chen Heng’s aura remained in various areas on this star as he walked around. Then, he quickly left this place. This star had already gradually collapsed and looked like it would be destroyed before he came. However, there were a lot of changes in this star after Chen Heng came. A vigorous vitality emerged from the various areas of the star. The entire star underwent a drastic change almost instantly. The initially damaged seal was repaired, and the entire star bloomed again with vitality as if it had come back to life.
The blonde girl sat quietly in her office on this day, but suddenly she was stunned. A powerful aura suddenly appeared, shrouding the star. Her expression changed drastically, sensing this aura. She brought the black-robed woman to the side and walked out, looking at the outside world.
Then, a shocking scene unfolded before her. A large hand descended from the sky as if it shrouded everything on the entire star. Large amounts of stars and resources were absorbed in all directions, all of them fused into the star under the surround of the invisible hand.
The earth was shaking, and the star beneath their feet was transforming at a terrifying speed, visible to the naked eye.
“Is that a God?” Shouts could be heard everywhere on the star.
People were shocked and horrified, looking at this scene like the world’s genesis. Many people knelt and looked at the sky with devout expressions, feeling the mighty power of this god.
The entire world was shocked. The blonde girl and the black-robed woman were no exception. They looked at the scene before them in a daze.
They were stronger and held a higher status compared to ordinary citizens. Naturally, they did not think that this was a so-called God. However, the terrifying power revealed by this scene truly made them feel terrified.
“Such power…” The blonde girl looked at the scene before her and could not help but take a breath. “At least it was done by a King…”
Change the world and make a star give off a new vitality using a single person’s power, and create another star in the blink of an eye. The legendary king is the only one who could possess such a terrifying method. Following that, a new doubt arose. ‘Who exactly was the king who made a move? Why did he help them?’ This doubt flashed through the blonde girl’s heart.
A ray of golden light emitted as if sensing the question in her mind, shrouding the surroundings before turning into a flash of spiritual light and surging into the blonde girl and the black-robed girl’s minds. They seemed to see a vaguely familiar figure amid the hazy scene. It was the appearance of a handsome youth. Besides, there was another line of words – Qika Star, Lu Kong.
The blonde girl and the black-robed woman paused, looking at the scene before them, and finally reacted after a long silence.
“Is Lu Kong that child from back then?” The black-robed woman was the first to react, “I remember that His Highness once placed the initial stone tablet’s mark on his body. The child from back then has grown to this stage in just a few decades?” She was a little shocked and did not know what to say.
Beside her, the blonde girl did not say anything but only silently chanted the name Lu Kong in her heart. Her emotions were inexplicably complicated.
However, no matter what, after Chen Heng made his move, this ancient star finally prevented its sad ending from being destroyed and had successfully replaced with a brand new vitality. This was Chen Heng’s repayment to the blonde girl to a certain extent. Then, he left this star and had no intention of meeting the two of them.
After leaving the Golden Star, Chen Heng returned to the Star Alliance and continued to live his previous life. The Star Alliance continued to develop in the decades that followed and expanded steadily after decades of accumulation, although the speed was not too fast. Wherever the Star Alliance went to an area, everyone around them had no power to resist at all and would surrender.
The Star Alliance had reached the peak of the Round Table after another fifty years. They had indeed ruled this galaxy and become the new overlord of the galaxy. At this point, the Star Alliance no longer had any enemies within the entire galaxy. There was no hostile power at all around them. Within these fifty years, the internal changes of the Star Alliance were also highly significant. During this period, Lu Yao had fused with the mark left behind by the Golden King and had successfully entered that level and became a king with the help of the initial stone tablet.
Today, she might already become the Golden King. However, after becoming a king, she took the initiative to abandon the Golden Mark left behind by the Golden King and gave it to someone else.
That was the young girl she had snatched from Ferrier and the others. She was the direct descendant of the Golden King. The bloodline power in her body was mighty. The Golden Mark in her body was taken away by Chen Heng after she was brought to the Star Alliance. However, it did not harm her life. Instead, Chen Heng took the young girl in as a disciple and became his second student.
After Lu Yao became king, she gave the Golden Mark that once belonged to her to that young girl, along with the title of Golden King. As for Lu Yao, she was called the King of None, the fourth king in the Star Alliance.
Yes, the fourth king. Before Lu Yao, the Black King had also returned to the king level. When Chen Heng defeated the Twilight Knight, he once obtained all of the Twilight Knight’s initial stone tablet.
When Lu Yao arrived at Ferrier’s location, she had also brought out the initial stone tablet left behind by the Golden King. One person did not need two initial stone tablets to advance. Therefore, at that time, Lu Yao had given the stone tablet that initially belonged to the Twilight Knight to the Black King. From a certain point of view, this could be deemed as returning it to its original owner.
The Black King quickly returned to its peak and reached the level of a king with his stone tablet once again. The peak power of the current Star Alliance had already surpassed the previous Round Table. Although there were five knights in the Round Table previously, the Twilight Knight was the only one who had indeed reached the level of a king.
And now, four people had the combat strength of a king in the Star Alliance – The Red Lotus King, the Black King, the King of Stars, and the King of None. Just these four kings were enough to suppress everything, making everyone tremble.
There had never been a force that had gathered so many kings, even in the peak of the times when the kings had risen together. And under these four kings, there were many existences in the Star Alliance comparable to the Five Knights. For example, Chen Heng’s two students, Gunali and Augustus.
Gunali was Malikado’s daughter and Chen Heng’s first student. After such a long time, she also reached the peak of the sixth rank, comparable to the Five Knights.
As for Augustus, she was the girl that Lu Yao had brought out from Ferrier. She was the direct descendant of the Golden King and had the potential to become a king. After decades of guidance from Chen Heng, her strength was not weak. With the Golden Mark that Lu Yao had given, it was enough for her to reach the battle strength of the Five Knights.
Besides these two, there was also the Crimson Knight, who had once been one of the Five Knights. Such a powerful lineup could be said to be at its peak. No force could be compared to it in the entire galaxy.
Chen Heng finally had to make a move under such circumstances. He stood alone and sat in a spacious space. He was deep in meditation, looking extraordinarily relaxed and natural. After a while, he opened his eyes and shook his head helplessly.
“As expected, it’s no longer effective…” He helplessly thought as he looked at the outside world and felt the situation on his body.
A long time ago, he had felt the limitations of this world. This world did not allow people to reach the seventh rank. No matter how hard one worked, no matter how amazing one’s talent was, in the end, one would only be able to reach the peak of the sixth rank, like the Five Knights.
It was precisely because the stone tablet was needed to break through the limit and advance to the seventh rank. Chen Heng was already standing at the seventh level now. He did not have the initial stone tablet, but Philip was his leverage to a certain extent, allowing him to continuously obtain power from the initial space and use it to increase his strength.
Unfortunately, he had reached his limit after reaching this step. The seventh level was a level that could only be achieved with the help of the origin of this world. If he continued to go higher, he would exceed the scope of this world. This was something that this world could not allow.
Therefore, Chen Heng had not made any progress since long ago. Chen Heng had polished himself to the limit a long time ago with the help of the Star Alliance’s enormous resources. He was at his peak level. Both his true spirit and his body had reached their peak. If he continued to advance, he would be in no progress.
At this level, it was no longer meaningful for Chen Heng to continue staying in this world.
“It seems that it’s time to leave…” Chen Heng thought as he felt the changes in his body, muttered to himself.
Leaving this world and returning to the world of Gods, which had a higher limit, was an option that Chen Heng had thought of a long time ago. It was just that at that time, the Star Alliance had just been established and had yet to wholly establish itself in this world. Therefore, Chen Heng did not take action for a long time though he had the intention.
However, now, the Star Alliance has wholly replaced the Round Table and become the overlord of this world. With Lu Yao, Gunali, and the others in the Star Alliance, there should not be any problems in the short term.
Moreover, there was Philip, who had merged with the consciousness of this world and became the carrier of the world’s consciousness. In the short term, Chen Heng couldn’t think of any possible problems in the Star Alliance. Therefore, the thought of leaving this world arose in Chen Heng’s mind once again.
He walked toward the outside world as this thought arose. This was the Star Alliance’s headquarters and where Chen Heng was in seclusion. The lights were brightly lit, looking very prosperous in various places.
As Chen Heng walked on this road, he looked at the scene around him, feeling neither sadness nor joy in his heart. He did not do much, but instead, he just looked around, silently observing the scene he had created. He finally returned to his room after an unknown amount of time. A few days later, his figure completely disappeared from this world. When Chen Heng chose to return and disappear from this world, someone seemed to have sensed something in the galaxy. Lu Yao and Augustus were together, talking and laughing at first. But suddenly, the smile on Lu Yao’s face stopped, and she subconsciously looked into the distance. At this moment, she felt a little disappointed, as if something she didn’t want to happen had happened.
“What’s wrong?” A sweet and gentle voice sounded before her.
Augustus looked at Lu Yao with a gentle face and a concerned look, waking Lu Yao up.
“Nothing.” Lu Yao forced a smile, then shook her head.
Further away, Gunali turned around to look at the Star Alliance. She could also feel something in her heart at this moment, as if something important was leaving.
It was dim and dark.
The once familiar feeling appeared once again, shrouding Chen Heng’s heart. Chen Heng opened his eyes once again when this feeling ended. In the surroundings, the familiar yet unfamiliar environment appeared before his eyes once again in the surroundings. Chen Heng took a look.
The place before his eyes was a spacious room. A few figures were standing in the room. They were a few familiar figures. The aura on their bodies gave Chen Heng a very familiar feeling, but it was also somewhat unfamiliar.
Feeling that familiar aura, Chen Heng looked seriously. The faces of the people before him immediately appeared in his eyes following his actions.
Hedosiri, Ramu, Raku, Janri…
10
The people standing before him were all his subordinates. At this moment, all of them had gathered in this place. From the looks of it, they seemed to be discussing something. Chen Heng’s expression was a little absent-minded facing the people’s gazes.
Then, a large number of memories appeared in his mind. That was the scene he had experienced in the world of Gods during his simulation. Yet, this simulation was different from the previous ones.
On the side of the world of Gods, the recovery of the Gods had already sped up. The situation would soon change, becoming more intense day by day. Under such a tense situation, if he did not appear for a long time, some problems would arise, and he would miss some opportunities.
Therefore, Chen Heng made a special arrangement before carrying out the simulation. He used the simulator’s function to set up a clone as a substitute for his departure. Using the simulator to create a clone, this principle was probably similar to Chen Heng’s previous clone.
It was just that compared to the previous clones, which were more independent, the intelligent version of this clone was weaker. It did not have much self-will but would only follow the orders left behind by Chen Heng before he left and imitate Chen Heng’s actions.
It was not realistic to expect such avatars to achieve many groundbreaking results. However, this model was not wrong if it was just defending and developing.
Following Chen Heng’s return, the images that the avatars had experienced before surfaced one by one and merged with his brain. This also allowed him to understand his time in this simulation.
“Half a year…” Chen Heng’s expression was a little absent-minded, sitting at the head of the table. This thought flashed through his mind. “I’ve been there for almost seventy to eighty years. If I were to be placed in this world, it would only be half a year…”
“This time ratio is not bad…” Chen Heng had stayed in the initial world for about seventy to eighty years. It was not a short period. However, only about half a year had passed in the world of Gods. This time ratio was indeed excellent.
