Swallowing the Stars: Analyzing All Things

Chapter 116 Fallen Valley!!

Inside the spacecraft control room.

"It's here?" Lin Yan looked at the star map area that had been compared, a hint of surprise flashing between his brows.

His gaze fell on the overall star map, where there was an area marked by a pale red halo. The area was small, just an inconspicuous dot in the vast Windfall Land.

But that small point was repeatedly mentioned in the forum.

"Fallen Valley".

Lin Yan whispered the name.

Fallen Valley is a very special area in the Fallen Lands. It is a long and narrow spatial rift located at the intersection of three giant meteorites and surrounded by dense clusters of meteorites.

The crack is only tens of thousands of kilometers wide, but it stretches for tens of millions of kilometers, like a tiny wound torn in the vast universe that has been unable to heal for a long time.

What makes Fallen Valley special is that while its exterior is extremely chaotic, its interior environment is very stable, stable enough to accommodate thousands of Fallen Ghosts in a deep slumber.

"Phew~"

Lin Yan's gaze lingered on the pale red halo, his mind racing.

Compared to ordinary meteorite fragments.

The Wind Phantoms prefer to sleep near the meteorites, and the more Wind Phantoms sleeping in the Windfall Valley, the more meteorites there are.

The formation of wind-fall marrow requires a large number of wind-fall stones to condense under extreme pressure and special energy.

"Fat cat," Lin Yan said.

"Here!" The fat cat's figure appeared on the screen, a hint of excitement flashing in its eyes. It had already guessed what Lin Yan was going to do.

Head to Fallen Valley.

""

"clear!"

The spaceship immediately changed direction and headed towards the location of Fallen Valley.

Time passed slowly, and several days later...

The spacecraft was quietly navigating through the asteroid belt, the vibrations from its detectors spreading out in concentric circles, scanning the energy fluctuations on every piece of debris around it, and recording the results as a star map.

-

"drop!"

Suddenly, the detector's alarm blared sharply.

"Master, a violent energy fluctuation has been detected ahead!" The fat cat's voice carried a hint of tension. "Distance: 9.2 million kilometers; energy level: extremely high! It's spreading!"

Lin Yan's pupils suddenly contracted.

On the screen.

It was a heart-stopping scene.

In the void ahead, a massive indigo hurricane is raging.

The indigo hurricane was extremely vast, with an estimated diameter of over hundreds of millions of kilometers, like a giant eye slowly turning in the void, coldly watching over this desolate star field.

At the edge of the hurricane, indigo arcs of electricity twisted and tore and writhed like billions of raging dragons, each hundreds of thousands of kilometers long, emitting blinding light and dyeing the entire starry sky indigo.

"Hiss~"

Between the electric arcs, the interaction and reaction formed streams of pale white particles, which then formed huge whirlwinds that swept across the void, tearing even dust into powder.

At the heart of the hurricane lay an eerie darkness.

The darkness was as deep and empty as an abyss, from which even light could not escape, but a faint light flickered, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, as if some ancient life was sleeping.

"Boom!"

Each flicker of light at the heart of darkness created ripples of energy that spread in all directions, vibrating the entire void.

"Fat cat, go around!"

Lin Yan immediately and decisively gave the order.

The spaceship immediately changed direction, but managed to avoid it in just a few seconds.

"Boom—"

The entire hurricane zone suddenly erupted with a deafening roar, not a normal sound wave transmission, but a shriek that seemed to touch the depths of the soul.

"Hmm~"

The shriek pierced through the spaceship and exploded deep within Lin Yan's brain, causing his consciousness to tremble as if an invisible blade was churning within his mind.

next moment.

The branches and leaves of the Mingxi Lotus stretched out, and a dark blue light flowed across their surface, enveloping his entire body in layers. The branches and leaves acted like a soft armor, blocking out most of the soul screams.

"Hoo hoo~"

The shrill cry was softened by the filtering of the branches and leaves, transforming from a piercing blade into a gentle breeze.

"That was close!"

A fleeting sense of relief crossed Lin Yan's mind.

Fortunately, his detector was advanced enough that even after being suppressed, it could still detect energy fluctuations of the hurricane in advance, giving him enough warning time.

What would have happened if he hadn't detected it beforehand and the spaceship had directly entered that hurricane area?

he does not know.

But he knew that with his current strength, even with the added defensive power of the Mingxi Lotus Marquis-level, he probably wouldn't even have a chance to escape in a natural disaster of this magnitude.

At least this body is beyond saving.

Although this body's life gene multiplier reached 37 times and it was possessed by immortal plant life, it was still as fragile as paper in the face of that world-destroying power.

"Whoosh~"

The spaceship quietly passed by, skirting the edge of the hurricane.

Those indigo arcs of electricity twisted wildly in the void tens of millions of kilometers away from the spaceship, each flash illuminating the entire starry sky.

A pale stream of particles swept past the spaceship, tearing pieces of debris into dust and crushing meteorites into dirt.

"Fat Cat————"

"Highlight this area and record it in the drawn star map!"

Lin Yan leaned back in his seat, his gaze fixed on the indigo blue hurricane in the outdoor simulation.

"clear!"

The fat cat's paws swiped around in the air a few times.

The coordinates, extent, and energy fluctuations of this hurricane area were immediately entered into the star map and marked in striking red as an "extremely dangerous natural wonder".

Lin Yan, on the other hand, fell into deep thought.

This clearly marked area was not mentioned in the forum.

Either it wasn't discovered by the previous groups of explorers, or it was discovered but deliberately concealed or kept quiet, or this hurricane only appeared recently and didn't exist before.

This is a cosmic wonder.

This reminded Lin Yan of "Li Feng" on the Ninth Domain Outer Battlefield, which was also a strange and dangerous place formed naturally in the universe, and the third way that the broken stone slab absorbed energy—directly absorbing the violent energy in the universe.

Among the three ways in which the energy of the slab is accumulated.

The first type is the most basic, relying on the stone slab's instinctive self-accumulation; the second type is through the body's absorption and transformation; and the third type is directly absorbing the violent energy in the universe.

Before that.

Lin Yan had only experienced this once by accident.

"I need to find some time to test it out!" Lin Yan muttered to himself.

The stone slab was accumulating energy at a very slow rate. Even with the Time Palace's tenfold acceleration and the assistance of a large amount of nutrient solution, he still felt it was too slow.

In his subsequent cultivation practices, he needed more and more energy from the stone slabs, but the rate at which the energy accumulated could not keep up with the demand.

If we can utilize the properties of clones.

This allows the stone slab to directly absorb the violent energy from this cosmic wonder, increasing the speed of energy accumulation by a thousand times, ten thousand times, or even more. Energy accumulation will no longer be a bottleneck in cultivation.

「唰一」

The spaceship continued heading towards Fallen Valley.

In the outdoor simulation, the indigo hurricane had disappeared, leaving only the gray-blue, dark purple, and pale stars, which tirelessly emitted a faint light.

Lin Yan withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes.

His consciousness sank into the depths of his mind, where the broken stone slab still floated quietly, its surface shimmering with streaks of milky white light.

almost.

After the Cangming Secret Realm ends, we'll find a pure energy surge area that doesn't involve soul impact to test it out.
