Those who face the wall, but are in the Nascent Soul stage.

Chapter 260 Prime Number Discussion
When the evil spirits entered another four-dimensional fragment.

When Luo Qing, stationed in the Kuiper Belt, slashed and destroyed a Tyrant-class devouring warship 30,000 kilometers away with a single sword strike, he fell silent for a moment.

What happened? Why has the contact with the evil Qing disappeared as well?
Are there also fragments of four-dimensional space in the direction that the Evil Qing is heading towards the First Fleet?
Are there really that many four-dimensional fragments in this universe?

The fact that Luo Qing felt frustrated by the fact that his two clones were both dead and out of contact, and that they had never even left the Ort Cloud, was truly disheartening.

A white-robed cultivator appeared gracefully before Luo Qing. His long hair flowed freely, and he carried a long sword on his back, standing there like a snowflake. He bowed respectfully to Luo Qing: "Main body, would you like me to go and take a look?"

This is Luo Qing's original self, and also the closest existence to Luo Qing's previous life—a pure Nascent Soul stage sword cultivator.

"Don't go out easily. This world is not safe. It's a battlefield littered with broken glass. Humanity is struggling to develop on the edge of this battlefield. You are my most crucial backup plan. You can't be harmed. Go and rest in the quantum world."

Benqing hesitated for a moment, but finally said respectfully, "Yes."

Having said that, the white-robed cultivator collapsed into the quantum world.

With his eyes closed, Luo Qing carefully sensed E Qing's location. After confirming that the connection with E Qing had been completely severed by different spatial dimensions, Luo Qing, unwilling to give up, condensed his divine sense into a thin line. Then, like a radar sweeping across the area, the end of his divine sense spread rapidly toward E Qing at the speed of light.

This guy is too far away; even at the speed of light, it would take more than a month to catch up with the direction where he disappeared.

Hopefully, this four-dimensional fragment that traps Eqing might contain the remains of a four-dimensional civilization. The attack of a higher dimension on a lower-dimensional life form is fatal. Eqing is still a child, easily agitated and reckless... none of them are easy to deal with.

It's also my own fault. I only half-heartedly pursued cultivation, and all I managed to create were some kind of messy things.

...

A month later.

Evil Qing sat cross-legged in this eerie space filled with black and white noise, the tear stains on his face long since dried. He pursed his lips and analyzed the situation seriously, just like his original self.

"This should be the strange space that severely injured Shan Qing. It's not the same type as the Sumeru Mustard Seed and the folded space in our old home. Storage bags and small worlds created by powerful beings are essentially just spaces from different domains, but this space..."

Looking at the lines on his palm and the tendons and bones on the back of his hand, E Qing was already very familiar with this visual experience that transcended three-dimensional cognition. Moreover, when E Qing looked down, he could see his dantian and the nascent soul on it, even including the front and back of the nascent soul. He could see every vortex of spiritual energy that constituted the nascent soul.

I felt as if I had become transparent glass, with all my secrets exposed in this space.

"There is one more spatial dimension than the world with length, width, and height. Those snowflake noises should be interstellar dust molecules that have strayed into this space. However, these molecules have also become a high-dimensional state of inversion, presenting this black and white flickering state in my vision. This is the main reason why this space is gray."

E Qing rubbed his eyes: "I should have known better than to come in. That bubble is both the entrance and the exit. I need to find it to get out."

Eqing was worried that if he flew too far in this space, he would lose his way in the universe. Therefore, he had been flying and exploring at a relatively slow speed. However, in the past month, the space he had explored was 90 astronomical units in the three-dimensional universe. This size was almost enough to contain the entire solar system (within the orbit of Pluto). This showed that this higher-dimensional space was particularly large, far exceeding his initial estimate.

But just as he set off, his eyes caught sight of something faintly visible in the distance... a 'ring'?
The ring of light and shadow was shrinking, and the previously diffused black and white noise suddenly thinned out, revealing the original dark color of this space. E Qing was stunned for a moment, and then immediately chased after it at top speed.

After flying for only a short while, E Qing quickly discovered a very serious problem.

Evil Qing could not determine the location and distance of the ring-shaped object. It could suddenly change from a point to the size of a coin, and then instantly appear in front of him, completely defying the conventional principles of perspective.

Only after flying closer could E Qing barely perceive the exact size of the ring structure—it was a metal ring with a diameter of twenty kilometers.

The diameter of this thing is like that of a giant city, but it is far smaller than the swallowing giant ring.

However, through careful observation, E Qing overturned his previous judgment. If this metal ring, which was in a four-dimensional state, were spread out in three-dimensional space, its actual size would probably be much larger than the entire Devouring Giant Ring.

The only difference is that the volume of the object is folded up in a four-dimensional structure, so in the end it only shows a size of about 20 kilometers in diameter.

Whether there are any benefits or not, he still has to go up and give them a couple of whacks. E Qing is completely out of options in this four-dimensional space. Even if a four-dimensional monster suddenly appears, he will have to find a way to communicate with it.

After E Qing stopped in front of the metal rings, he carefully observed the outside of the ring-shaped metal structure for a while. He quickly discovered that the surface of these metal rings was covered with circuit-like patterns that were finer than a hair. These patterns had long since dried up, but E Qing had already imagined what the flowing, dark blue light would look like when it flowed through the patterns.

Unlike the body that is constantly being observed and transformed, with its internal and external spaces overlapping, the metal ring in front of him gives a feeling of heaviness.

"Can you communicate?" There was no sound, no answer.

Do you have a life?

There was still no response.

E Qing tentatively tapped the surface of the metal ring, but felt that he was tapping something dense, without temperature or structure.

"Is anyone inside? Can you answer that?"

E Qing asked very politely, but this politeness lasted for less than 10 minutes. Exhausted, E Qing pointed his finger as a sword and directly slashed out a sword aura. The three-dimensional gap of the sword aura surged violently in the four-dimensional space and finally bombarded the surface of the metal ring in front of him.

Nothing happened.

E Qing observed very carefully. It wasn't that the metal ring blocked his attack, but rather that his attack had never been able to affect this four-dimensional object. His sword energy struck the metal ring like a shadow, without causing any damage.

E Qing suspected that even if a cultivator at the Tribulation Transcending stage were to launch a full-force attack on this metal ring, it would be completely harmless as long as the attack did not involve the fourth dimension.

After all, the spatial laws mastered by cultivators in the Tribulation Transcending stage are all three-dimensional spatial laws. Their ability to tear through space and teleport to a certain place is essentially an application of three-dimensional space. Of course, cultivators in the Tribulation Transcending stage have very high comprehension. As long as they are given a little analysis of four-dimensional space, they will naturally be able to master the ability to fight in four-dimensional space.

Unlike Shanqing, without Dingyi's explanation, Eqing himself couldn't understand the spatial structure of this world for a while.

After working on it for more than half an hour, it still didn't work.

Having finally found a glimmer of hope, E Qing, now plunged into despair, began to give up entirely.

'Two Swords'

'Three Swords'

'Five Swords'

'Eleven Swords'

'Thirteen Swords'

E Qing arranged the sword light into a prime number array and bombarded the metal ring continuously.

Unexpectedly, the metal ring suddenly responded, and a light resembling sword energy appeared. Then, the number of sword energies increased and eventually formed a complete sword energy ring.

“17剑、19剑、23剑、29剑、31剑。”的序列。

These sword beams, one after another, bombarded E Qing at the speed of light. E Qing tried to block them, but he completely overlooked one problem: in four-dimensional space, the speed of light in a vacuum is 10 times that in three-dimensional space. In other words, the sword beams in front of him were coming at a speed of 300 million kilometers per second, which was far beyond E Qing's ability to defend himself.

E Qing felt the 'return gift' from his attack.

Despite being blasted into a dusty mess by the sword light, E Qing was not angry; instead, he suddenly became excited.

"Ha! I knew it! As long as you can decipher the password to the secret realm set up by the senior cultivators, you can become a destined person and obtain your own opportunity. This principle is the same in this world!"

E Qing then unleashed five more prime number sword lights, namely 37, 41, 43, 47, and 53. These nearly 200 points of light danced in the sky, but this time the points of light did not possess any offensive power; instead, they appeared in front of the metal ring.

As expected, the patterns on the surface of the gold bracelet shimmered slightly, forming a dotted array of light points.

59、61、67、71、73
E Qing fully understood that the other party could comprehend prime numbers, which meant that the other party still retained intelligence, just as he had initially judged.

Since it retains intelligence and can respond with prime numbers, it means that the other party is capable of communication.
