Desperate Night

At that very moment, Yu Hong was horrified to discover that the Tai Ling Skill within his body had actually broken through another level!

Without any cultivation, relying solely on the automatic cultivation trait of Dao energy circulation, he had actually entered the eighth level, Eternal Day, so quickly!

Hiss.

A strange, gentle light, white with a semi-transparent quality, vaguely illuminated from behind him.

Yu Hong stood up and turned around to look at the light, but as he turned, the light seemed to be embedded behind him, moving with him.

He could feel the light wells within his body starting to divide like cells, one splitting into two, then two into four, and four into eight, rapidly increasing in number.

Although the newly appearing light wells were far smaller than the original one, in just a few dozen seconds, the single light well in his dantian had transformed into hundreds!

The Chaotic Divine Eye Skill, which had previously suppressed the Tai Ling Skill, could no longer continue to suppress it and was gradually pushed away in reverse.

Roar!

Under the surge of gray inner force, a white-bottomed, black-striped two-winged tiger emerged, roaring and struggling to resist, but to no avail.

The eighth level of the Tai Ling Skill was extremely close to the final ninth level, Bright Divinity, and was about to face the ultimate sun.

The endless light energy surged within Yu Hong's body, giving him the illusion that he could destroy everything at this moment.

But this was not what he wanted!

"No... I must find a way to suppress the Tai Ling Skill, otherwise, before I can find a place of vitality, I'll be finished!"

Yu Hong felt the light disaster radiation energy within his body, which was no longer restricted, and felt not power, but anxiety.

At this moment, his power was no longer subject to any restrictions, and his instantaneous explosive force was a hundred times greater than before.

It could be said that he could now instantly kill his former self with a wave of his hand.

Although it was only a difference of one level, the difference in strength was like heaven and earth.

Thinking of this, Yu Hong placed his hope on the Chaotic Divine Eye Skill. He immediately took off his eye patch and dug out his outer eye from its socket.

'Enhance the outer eye, direction—able to resist the light disaster's ultimate sun.'

The sudden burst of improvement in the Tai Ling Skill changed Yu Hong's original plan. He had to put everything else aside and first solve the threat of the ultimate sun.

Soon, the black line on the back of his hand flashed.

A new countdown appeared on the surface of the outer eye: 32275 years, 11 months, and 8 minutes.

'Begin enhancing the outer eye?' The black mark's inquiry arrived as expected.

"..."

Yu Hong froze.

He had thought that the time might be very long, but he never expected it to be so long.

Yu Hong quickly had an idea.

He reached out his hand again. This time, what he wanted to enhance was not power or skill, but direction!

'Enhance the outer eye, direction: enhance the ability to guide me to a place that can resist the ultimate sun.'

The black line flashed again.

The new countdown and the black mark's inquiry appeared simultaneously.

Yu Hong ignored the inquiry and looked at the red numbers on the surface of the outer eye: 3 days, 11 hours, and 02 minutes.

Phew!

Finally, he let out a long sigh.

As expected, just pointing a direction greatly shortened the black mark's time.

He immediately chose to begin.

As a large amount of inner force was absorbed, the countdown flashed and began counting down.

Yu Hong then sat down cross-legged and began to try to absorb the power of the wind disaster, building new wind wells in his body to balance the overly powerful Tai Ling Skill light wells.

Three days later, deep within the black disaster.

Endless black torrents rolled and surged outside the window.

Yu Hong stood at the window, looking outside, looking at the black mucus that could not be seen, without saying a word.

Puff.

Suddenly, a pale hand was firmly attached to the edge of the window, then slowly released, washed away by the black water, and disappeared into the torrent.

Yu Hong touched the outer eye that had just been enhanced. He followed the ability of this eye, guiding Blackie back to the depths of the black disaster.

The enhanced Blackie remained motionless here, no matter what monsters it encountered.

It was as if the outside and inside of the window were two completely different worlds, not interfering with each other.

But Yu Hong knew that the direction he was about to see in his eyes was about to reach the end.

A clue that took a full three days to enhance, the outer eye's ability was not repeatable but a one-time use. It would disappear after being used.

This also gave Yu Hong more confidence in this self-saving journey.

Playing with the new outer eye that was being enhanced in his hand, he stared at the outside world, waiting quietly.

"Yu Hong." Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in his ears.

It was Aggelis!

Yu Hong immediately recognized this distinctive voice.

"The place you are delving into is too far away. In five minutes, at your current speed, I will completely lose my sense of you. Your current area is the Source Wilderness Zone, a depth that no Ark of Salvation has ever reached. Please be careful."

Aggelis's voice, as if leaving a message, quickly disappeared after saying this.

Yu Hong gently clenched the outer eye in his hand, without speaking.

The significant enhancement of the safe house allowed him to break through the Phoenix Eye and subsequent areas in one breath, but he was a little surprised to have reached a place that no other captain had ever reached so quickly.

"So it's just me alone? An unexplored area, then wish me luck..."

Yu Hong turned around, no longer looking out the window, but walked towards the main control room on the second floor.

Half an hour later.

Blackie suddenly plunged downward in the black torrent, instantly submerging into a transparent vortex that appeared abruptly, disappearing without a trace.

After a brief period of confusion.

Yu Hong woke up from his meditative state. He opened his eyes, got up, and stood in the main control room, looking outside.

Outside the circular window, was a gray-white mountain range scattered with wind and snow.

The mountains stretched endlessly, extending to the end of the horizon.

Yu Hong exhaled and looked up at the sky.

The sky was gray-white, and a huge crimson planet, occupying half of the sky, was slowly rolling and hovering, as if it might fall to the ground at any moment.

The latest novels can be found on 69shu.com!

The planet's surface was even visible, with its various potholes, rough mountains, and valleys.

Yu Hong noticed that at the bottom of this huge red planet, there was a spaceship resembling an ancient Chinese sailing ship, flying towards them.

The spaceship was brown all over, and its white sails billowed in the wind, scattering white light behind it, it was unknown whether it was propelled by wind or some other energy.

He stood by the window, watching the ship approach rapidly, then slow down in mid-air as it neared.

With a whoosh, several figures leaped down from the spaceship.

The figures stepped on flying swords, dressed in white like snow, with large sleeves fluttering, and their long black hair neatly tied behind their heads, displaying the demeanor of sword immortals.

But as the distance closed, Yu Hong suddenly widened his eyes, as if he had seen something astonishing.

Knock, knock, knock.

Soon, the door of the dark and simple room was knocked on.

A sword-wielding man with a silver hairband walked in front, reaching out to knock on the door.

"Is this the place?"

"This is it." A woman behind him nodded in response. "Senior brother, why knock?"

"Since it's made to look like a door, it means the owner wants people to knock before visiting." The man grinned, revealing that half of his teeth and mouth were made of silver-gray metal parts.

To be precise, half of his head was assembled with machinery, half of his face was flesh and blood, and half of his face was mechanical.

Like him, the junior sister on the side was in a similar situation, but she was even more thorough. Her entire body was a silver-gray robot, with electronic red light flashing in her eyes as she scanned her surroundings, and her face was full of precise and delicate assembly lines.

"Bai Sheng from Qinghe Mountain, comes to visit the master of the cave dwelling. Please grant us an audience." The senior brother said loudly.

Yu Hong looked at these people. The traces of flesh and blood on their bodies were very few, and most of them had been replaced by machinery.

He didn't know where he had come, but since the ability enhanced by the outer eye told him that there might be a way to deal with the Ultimate Sun here, he had to find clues here no matter what.

The language they spoke was also a variant of the Night language, which was common and could be understood with a little comprehension.

Yu Hong thought for a moment and replied to the other party through the door.

"I am just a passing wanderer, suffering from a serious illness, hoping to find a cure here."

"Serious illness? What kind of illness makes you afraid to even show your face?" The senior brother smiled and asked.

"Do you know about the Source Calamity?" Yu Hong asked back.

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people at the door changed.

"The Source Calamity should have been completely isolated and sealed after the Guihong Cave battle, right? How did you know about this secret?" The senior brother said in a deep voice.

"We were cultivating in the mountains when we suddenly saw spatial fluctuations flashing within the territory. We came to investigate and found it was your cave dwelling. You have trespassed into our sect's territory for no reason, and even mentioned such a secret matter as the Source Calamity... What are your intentions?" The junior sister on the side said in a bad tone.

"Can I ask, how much do you know about the Source Calamity?" Yu Hong was not angry, but instead slightly released a trace of Light Calamity radiation.

Just a wisp of aura instantly changed the faces of the people outside the door, and they retreated rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, they had moved dozens of meters away.

"In today's universe, since the ninety-nine star realms were sealed and isolated by many Celestial Venerables with the Purple Yin Secret Technique, many star sects have mostly settled on mountains and islands, and more than 20,000 years have passed." The senior brother said in a low voice, "The term Source Calamity was once used in ancient books, but now people mostly refer to it as Star Calamity."

He paused and looked solemnly at Yu Hong's door.

"You contain the power of the Star Calamity and claim to be seriously ill. Could it be that you are also an infected person plagued by the Star Calamity?"

"I don't know what an infected person is, but I am indeed plagued by the Star Calamity you mentioned, and I cannot cure it myself, so I came here to seek treatment," Yu Hong replied sincerely.

"Treatment... You have come to the right place, but the cost of treating an infected person is very high."

"Cost is not a problem, the key is, can it be cured?" Yu Hong said seriously.

"Curing is certain, but we must also determine your origins. If your origins are not upright, our sect will definitely not provide treatment. May I ask your name? I am Bai Sheng. This is my junior sister, Hei Ying." The man introduced himself.

"I am Yu Hu." Yu Hong gave a false name. "Speaking of which, where exactly is this place? I had some problems with spatial jumping, so..."

"This is Qinghe Mountain in the southern part of the Eternal Fall Star System in the Eastern Divine Region. It is considered one of the well-known resource stars in the surrounding area, mainly producing Qinghe Secret Medicine, and is one of the sects under the Nine Star Sword Sect."

"..." Yu Hong was a little confused, "Then may I ask, how big is this Eternal Fall Star System?"

"Ah?" The two were also stunned. Could this person have a problem with his sanity? He doesn't even know the Eternal Fall Star System?

"This, the Eternal Fall Star System has 670 million star systems. Qinghe Mountain is just a tiny area within it, with only 70 star systems under its jurisdiction. A drop in the ocean is not enough to describe the comparison. You..."
