Ming Qi nodded, observing his surroundings as he followed the star field in one direction.
The environment here wasn't much different from Tianhuang. Neither the vegetation nor the animal life was particularly unusual. The only difference was that the rocky ground here had a somewhat moonlit aura, clearly related to the nine moons that appeared each night.
The nine moons in the sky naturally radiated a powerful lunar energy, and over time, this powerful lunar energy would inevitably affect the creatures on the ground.
Not long after, the two had walked three or five miles when Xing Yun suddenly turned around, smirking, and pounced on Ming Qi.
"You don't even know the time..."
Although Ming Qi said this, his hands were unreserved, and he grasped the girl's firm breasts.
These past few days had truly been exhausting, haunted by the apocalypse. Despite being surrounded by beautiful women, Ming Qi couldn't find a moment to relax. Furthermore, he was plagued by conflict and guilt. He still couldn't see his own future, and he didn't know what kind of future he could offer them.
"It's just that it's time to separate..."
Xing Yun was halfway through her words when the two of them became entangled.
However, Ming Qi hadn't forgotten to cast a barrier before the fierce battle, preventing anyone less skilled than him from seeing what was happening inside.
If anyone else saw him, he'd be embarrassed, especially the vampire Purple Star Jade Lord, who was probably already planning to suck him dry.
At this moment, people were emerging from the teleportation array's exit. Ming Qi, being present, could see that the first to emerge were essentially his original group, followed by Purple Star Jade Lord and the other powerful aliens, then the Savages. As expected, the Celestials were the last to emerge.
But Ming Qi didn't see any of this, and even if he had, he wouldn't have cared. He had provided the path, and their choice was their own, and Ming Qi wouldn't force it.
But if they were smart, they wouldn't have failed to come.
Tianhuang was destroyed, and no one could turn the tide.
At this moment, Tianhuang was completely silent. Black smoke billowed from the earth, and in the distant sky, the icy throne that had obscured the sun appeared again. However, unlike the last time, this time the throne was no longer empty. Atop it rested a white chess piece.
As the throne appeared, its light radiated, turning everything it touched to dust. The entire world, like a decaying, dead tree, crumbled at the touch.
As the sky darkened, Ming Qi waved his hand, removing the light barrier. Xingyun stretched and stood up from the soft grass, the blush still lingering on her face.
"Let's go, I think it's almost time."
Ming Qi smiled as he walked towards the teleportation array's exit. He had to admit, women were truly the best medicine for relieving stress. After a moment of charming and charming company, his mood improved considerably.
Of course, this benefit was mutual, especially when both parties desired it.
Arriving at the exit, Ming Qi casually glanced around and nodded. His suspicions were correct. Although some still lingered in Tianhuang, they had ultimately arrived here.
After a few brief words, Ming Qi opened the Divine Map space and let everyone in.
He needed to find shelter for these people; their speed was too slow to keep up with Ming Qi's pace.
No one objected, and everyone quietly entered the Divine Map space.
Then Ming Qi took off and soared through the air, taking in the entire landscape below. He had already decided not to disturb the local inhabitants for the time being, so he needed to find a place with sufficient food and water, and away from any local settlements.
The Mingyue World is endowed with a powerful essence, vibrant energy, and vast, bountiful land. Finding such a place was easy. It took Ming Qi only half a day to locate a spot with stunning scenery.
This place was a circular valley, dozens of miles in radius, a natural wonder. Within the valley, there were over a dozen natural water sources, and wild beasts of all sizes could be seen occasionally roaming. Furthermore, the valley provided a natural barrier, making it difficult to see what was happening from the outside. However, the only drawback was that, due to the surrounding mountains, sunlight only reached half of the area, especially in the afternoon.
This wasn't a problem, however, as once outside the circular valley, there were no other restrictions. Furthermore, the mountains were dotted with rocky outcrops of varying sizes, providing excellent lighting.
After determining the location, Ming Qi summoned everyone. He then summoned Zong Feng and the Ancient God Lord, representing the Wilderness, Liu Li and the Earth Sword Martial God, representing the Celestial Clan, along with his original team.
"This world is full of life, so we'll settle here for now. I'll set up a large formation for protection. Avoid any contact with the native creatures for now. I'll go out in a few days to investigate the situation here, and if there are no problems, I'll leave."
Ming Qi was now undisputedly the leader among these people. Strength was everything. Even the Ancient God Lord, who had lived for countless years, had no objection. If Ming Qi hadn't opened the passage, their barbarian tribe would have been completely wiped out.
No one objected to Ming Qi's words, but those who had always followed him expressed a deep sense of reluctance.
To them, Ming Qi was like their guardian deity. If he wasn't here, they wouldn't feel at ease. However, this time, Ming Qi didn't intend to bring anyone with him. He was facing the gods, not ordinary enemies. While bringing more people into the Divine Map space wouldn't have much impact under normal circumstances, this time was different. He was roaming the void, not the earth of any particular world.
"Given your abilities, you should be able to handle any common problems on your own. If you're truly unable to, please notify me."
Ming Qi pondered for a moment before ultimately leaving behind three communication talismans: one for Zong Feng, one for Wei Silong, and one for Xing Yun. Finally, seeing Leng Xiaolong standing nearby, he paused for a moment and gave him one as well.
"Keep your people in check. I'm sure you all understand the consequences of disobeying my wishes."
With that, Ming Qi soared into the air, disappearing in an instant.
He was headed for the human settlements of this world to observe the native creatures.
The Mingyue World was vast and boundless, far larger than Tianhuang. Ming Qi flew for several days without encountering any native inhabitants. Occasionally, he encountered one or two individuals, similar to him, who were high-flying and paid him no attention.
Based on this estimate, he concluded that there seemed to be no human settlements within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles. This conclusion reassured Ming Qi.
However, the next discovery made Ming Qi frown.
His route was circuitous. Shortly after he met those local cultivators, he sensed a powerful alien aura. If it was just a simple alien, it would not be surprising, but this alien was different. Its aura made Ming Qi instantly think of a transcendent existence, a superior.
