My Way

Chapter 888 Stars (Part 5)

'Grass……'

An unexpected sight appeared…

Looking at the dark gold metal sphere with countless luminous patterns on its surface, resembling the stripes of a circuit board, Ling Wuyuan could be 100% certain of something without needing to think deeply.

That means this thing, and even this entire alternate dimension, is 100% man-made.

of course.

The term "people" here does not refer to humans alone.

More likely, it is some kind of completely unknown intelligent race.

Although Ling Wuyuan had sensed something was amiss earlier, he hadn't realized how utterly amiss it was...

After all, the [Youyue Great Swamp] has been explored countless times by various forces over an incredibly long period of time, and even the [Snow Moon Cloud Pavilion] has a wealth of exploration experience in this place.

But... no one has actually found any man-made objects here!

Therefore, Ling Wuyuan's discovery today has directly led to the complete overturning of past history in an instant.

After all, a being capable of creating an alternate dimension inside a star must be incredibly powerful.

In fact.

If Ling Wuyuan hadn't already gained some control over the star, there would probably only be one way to break through that spacetime anomaly created by the gravitational pull of the entire star—that is, to shatter the entire star!
Therefore, the creator of this alternate dimension is undoubtedly highly skilled in terms of technology alone!
Even for cultivators at the "Original Realm" who are extremely skilled in array formations and barriers, creating a similar alternate-dimensional space is by no means easy and would require a very long time.

As for the key point...

That dark gold metallic sphere...

Although Ling Wuyuan couldn't understand the meaning of the patterns on the other party's surface for the time being.

However, by observing the flickering and distribution patterns of the other party, he could easily determine that it must be some kind of very special technology, most likely a special technology similar to the main spacetime rune technology.

Standing at the dimensional rift forcibly torn open by the thick gray fog, I silently observed for a while.

Out of curiosity.

Ling Wuyuan ultimately chose to step inside, intending to delve into the entire artificial extradimensional space and even the dark golden metal sphere.

But we've only just gone in.

His expression suddenly changed.

Then, without saying a word, he quickly withdrew from it.

In that very instant.

Upon entering the alternate dimension, he first felt a kind of attraction or gravity.

That's an unknown weight of billions of tons.

It's as if an entire continent or even an entire planet is being crushed on one person.

Even he felt a little uncomfortable.

Moreover, he could sense that the gravitational pull originated from that dark gold metal sphere.

They are trying to crush Ling Wuyuan.

They were also trying to forcibly drag him over.

The feeling was almost like facing some kind of ravenous beast...

but.

If it's only this level of impact, then it's all fine. Those strange sensations only make Ling Wuyuan a little uncomfortable, nothing serious.

Even if the intensity were many times greater, he could withstand it completely with the support of his true essence.

But in that instant, he could still clearly sense, through the [Gray Mist Marks] on Pei Yiman and the others, that the flow of time between them had undergone a tremendous change in that instant.

His flow of time was hundreds of times slower than Pei Yiman's and the others!

In other words.

As he entered that artificial extradimensional space.

For every second he spends within it, at least hundreds of seconds pass outside.

The saying that a day in heaven is equivalent to a year on earth is nothing more than this.

That kind of situation.

This was clearly unacceptable to Ling Wuyuan.

He couldn't possibly waste so much time on something whose usefulness was still uncertain.

Furthermore.

Other than that.

He was perfectly certain that as he continued to approach the dark golden metal sphere, the difference in the flow of time would inevitably widen further. Perhaps when he successfully reached the vicinity of it, the difference in the flow of time between him and the outside world would be tens of thousands of times or even higher...

and so.

Faced with a price that one cannot bear.

Ling Wuyuan decisively chose to leave the other-dimensional space and did not continue to delve into it.

Compared to the impact of the flow of time.

The destructive power of gravity is truly negligible...

now.

Standing outside the dimensional rift, gazing at the still shimmering dark golden metallic sphere, and recalling the feeling it had given him, Wu Yuan's mind raced with a flurry of thoughts, and some conjectures involuntarily surfaced:
Gravity...time...

Is it something created from black hole matter or similar matter?

Or perhaps... it really is some kind of time-travel technology?

among them.

He leans more towards the first conjecture.

Although he couldn't be sure if his guess was correct.

But when he carefully recalled the strange gravitational pull he had experienced before...

The kind of gravity that tried to crush him and pull him to the location of the dark gold sphere.

And that equally bizarre flow of time, where the difference in speed increases with distance from the dark gold metallic sphere...

In Ling Wuyuan's mind, she immediately recalled some knowledge she had learned in her previous life—[Black holes, as extremely dense matter, usually evolve from massive stars. Their mere existence creates incredibly powerful gravitational fields, continuously attracting and engulfing other things to grow stronger. Furthermore, the excessive density, mass, and gravity of black holes can distort time and space, creating various special phenomena, including but not limited to spatial disorder and abnormal time flow.]

In my past life, I was someone who only wanted to make money and never delved into physics.

Even though Ling Wuyuan didn't know much about black holes, such a famous thing.

But as mentioned before, that thing is just too famous... So, even without specifically delving into it, he still has a certain level of basic knowledge about black holes, this special type of celestial body.

just now.

The more you think about the fundamental characteristics of black holes, the more you realize how much they have to offer.

The more he looked at the dark gold metal sphere, the more he felt that it had many similarities to a black hole.

He felt that even if there was no direct relationship between the two, many of their principles should be the same.
