Chapter 413: New Enemy

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The stars were hanging high in the sky. Occasionally, a comet would fly past, making one feel that the universe was not motionless, but moving.

As the young man formed by the treasure tree put away the core of the plate-shaped world, an aura of decline suddenly appeared in the five worlds that were originally suitable for living beings to cultivate in.

Chen Yiming felt that the materials that could help living creatures cultivate were gradually being used up. He was surprised by this.

“The five worlds are arranged at five corners of the pentagon. From the looks of it, they are not isolated existences. Instead, they have some kind of connection to begin with.”

“When all the cores of the five worlds are dug out, the materials that can help living creatures cultivate will only be consumed and not produced. The supernatural beings will also disappear and it will become like the blue planet in the past.”

“Then after a long time, will a new core be born? Will it be able to restore an environment suitable for living creatures to cultivate?”

After all the trouble, Chen Yiming had taken away four world cores, and the young man formed by the treasure tree had dug out one of the world cores. It was equivalent to completely cutting off the path of cultivation in this galaxy.

Compared to the black tide that was invading the world, it seemed that what they were doing was not a good thing either.

“Cough, cough!”

At this moment, the young man turned around and said to Chen Yiming, “The black substance obtained from destroying the war weapon is abundant and of good quality, but it’s best to use it carefully.”

Hearing this, Chen Yiming snapped out of his thoughts.

On second thought, that seemed to be the case. The black substance came from the tools used by the black tide to invade the world, and the aura on it could not be removed.

To humans, it was fine to use it at the last minute before their own technology caught up. There was always a hidden danger in using it all the time. This was obvious from the situation of the three blue-skinned humans. It was definitely not a good thing to be involved with the black tide.

The young man formed by the treasure tree continued, “Before the black tide retreated, it left a trap for you. Perhaps you didn’t notice.”

Chen Yiming was puzzled. Was that true?

The three dragon gods were also puzzled. In their opinion, the black tide seemed to be fleeing in panic. How could it trick Chen Yiming?

“This trap was set when you were fighting the world’s will. How should I say it? In reality, the black tide is only trying to slow you down and prevent you from tracking down their base that is near this galaxy.”

“Think about it. At that time, was the world’s will slightly stronger than at its peak? Did the stars suddenly flash and enhance the world’s will?”

“To understand everything involved, we have to start with the other name of the world’s will, which is the star spirit.”

Before the treasure tree could explain itself, Chen Yiming suddenly understood that the strange stones he had obtained that were part of the core of the world could cause trouble.

The reason was that his identity as a person from the central galaxy was all a lie.

In essence, he was born on a cultivation desert planet and did not know anything about the universe that might be common knowledge.

“The star spirits have the ability to contact each other. At that time, the stars flashed in the sky, giving the world’s will additional enhancement. The increase in combat strength was quite limited, and it was mostly to intimidate you.”

“However, you still insisted on forcefully killing a star spirit. Such actions will cause your aura to be remembered forever and blacklisted by the star spirits.”

“In other words, any world with a star spirit will view your aura as that of an enemy. There are also factions related to the star spirits that specially hunt down people like you.”

“In essence, it’s not much different from the hatred for the black tide.”

Hearing this, Chen Yiming raised an eyebrow and glanced at the strange stone in the young man’s hand.

Seeing this, the other party quickly continued to explain, “The star spirits are the foundation of cultivation in the universe. You are not allowed to kill them openly and forcefully take their accumulated essence energy. This is common knowledge.”

“Although the strange stone that you have and the strange stone here both contain star spirits, I didn’t give this one a chance to contact other star spirits.”

“It’s similar to how the black tide invades a new world. A tool like the blockade will immediately suppress the star spirit and prevent it from spreading the news of the invasion.”

Good lord!

Veins popped out on Chen Yiming’s forehead, and he clenched his fists.

Since the treasure tree knew about the issue with the star spirits, it was even more impossible for the female spirit not to know. However, she must have done it on purpose to watch him fall into the trap.

The current situation was that he had repeatedly repelled the counterattack of the black tide. It was obvious that if he encountered the black tide, they would fight to the death.

After forming a huge grudge with the star spirits, it was equivalent to both the good and evil sides treating him as an enemy. He would not be welcome wherever he went.

Furthermore, he was not the only one who was not welcomed. The materials on the hull of the human spaceship pointed to the black tide, and there was a high chance that they would also not be welcome.

The young man formed by the treasure tree secretly took a step back.

He was a little flustered, afraid that Chen Yiming would go all out. Since he had already offended the star spirits, he might as well take the strange stone from him.

Of course, he also understood the reason why the goddess didn’t inform him in advance. If Chen Yiming and the human factions couldn’t truly integrate into the universe, she could hide herself better.

It was to prevent her from losing her value to Chen Yiming and being sold off. It was also to protect herself.

Humans stepping into outer space and gradually coming into contact with the real universe was completely different from staying on the blue planet alone.

The expressions of the three dragon gods at the side also froze.

They had thought that by blocking the black tide’s counterattack and obtaining what they wanted, everyone would be happy. They had also wanted to take the opportunity to suggest joining Chen Yiming.

However, when he heard the sound of Chen Yiming’s fist knocking against the ground, they had to swallow their words. The other party was still angry.

The atmosphere in the entire plate-shaped world was rather heavy. Ordinary creatures felt that they could not breathe normally. In the sky, there were also faint signs of a large thunderstorm gathering.

If the weather continued to evolve, it would be similar to the scene of the world’s will getting angry. The entire world was on the verge of collapse, and the sky seemed to be about to fall down.

Only then did the young man from the treasure tree remember that he still had something to do. He quickly took out the map of the universe drawn by the goddess on a piece of paper made of some unknown material that looked like a sheepskin scroll.

The map of the universe originally did not have a physical form. It was drawn by the female spirit based on a portion of the memories from the old man in the long robe.

What was given here was not the full map, but the parts that were sufficient for humans to use in the next stage.

“This is part of the map,”

the young man formed by the treasure tree emphasized.

Chen Yiming took the sheepskin scroll. His attention was attracted by the map, and the phenomenon that covered the entire world gradually disappeared. The heavy atmosphere gradually calmed down.

On the star , the location of the blue planet was marked by a red circle. At the moment, the five worlds in this space were marked by five small red crosses.

“What’s going on?”

Chen Yiming’s expression remained the same, but he was speechless. Such a map had to be handed over to an astronomy expert to study, and he could only understand the rough direction.

As for how far the marked stars were from each other, it needed to be checked before it could be determined. Just by looking at the map, it was similar to a map of the blue planet.

Seeing this, the treasure tree heaved a sigh of relief and said, “The goddess also had another thing that she wanted me to tell you. Of the five worlds in this galaxy, the dark forest world is the most special.”

“The core of its world has the space attribute, so it’s worth a lot in the universe. It can be made into a spatial item, so don’t reveal it to others easily.”

“The space-travel passage connecting to the blue planet was established with the core of that world as the foundation and the power of the wormholes nearby.”

“However, because you have brought the core of the world away, all the space-travel passages will gradually close. The longest time they can last will not exceed a month.”

Hearing this, Chen Yiming recalled the appearance of the huge eye.

Among the five worlds in this galaxy, there were no creatures that had mastered spatial abilities in the entire plate-shaped world. However, there was one in the dark forest world, and there might even be more than one.

The female spirit’s first stop was the dark forest world, not the other four worlds.

It was clear that even if the core of the world was not made into a spatial item, its value was immeasurable. This priceless item was akin to a treasure for the humans.

Just as the human spaceship fleet was racing against time to transport the black substance away, a silver spaceship that seemed to have fused with space was rushing towards the dark forest world.

In the spaceship,

a middle-aged man in black armor had a calm expression on his face as he crossed his arms in front of him. In front of him was a large screen that marked the location of the dark forest world in space and the real-time location of the spaceship.

Behind him, two burly men stood on both sides. They were the two crew members of the spaceship and were also direct subordinates of the middle-aged man.

One of the bald men had a worried expression on his face. “I didn’t expect that in the face of a powerful enemy like the black tide, there would still be extremely selfish people among the humans who would do anything to get their hands on the star spirits.”

Another burly man with a scar on his face shook his head from side to side, making a knocking sound.

“However, even in a galaxy, there are always transactions of essence energy happening in secret. This is the temptation of essence energy.”

The bald man nodded. It was just as the scarred man had said.

For some people, even if they knew that it was very easy for one’s foundation to be weak when using the essence energy to break through, and that many of their problems could not be resolved, causing the difficulty of breaking through to the next level to increase greatly,

they still could not resist the temptation to use the essence energy to break through immediately. On one hand, there was the unknown future, and on the other hand, there was the present.

They would always prioritize the present. As for the future, if they could not break through now, there would be no future to speak of.

At this moment, the middle-aged man in armor suddenly said, “We have to put in 120% of our effort on this operation. It involves a star spirit with the space attribute, so we can only succeed and not fail.”

“Yes,” the two burly men in the spaceship replied loudly.

The middle-aged man, who was their superior, had personally relayed the information. Clearly, it was a mission with hidden requirements.

It had to be known that before they set off, the two of them had not seen this information during the mission briefing. At this moment, their relaxed brows immediately frowned.

The bald man’s fighting spirit erupted.

He had taken one step at a time and had never relied on external forces to break through to his current level. What he hated the most was those who relied on external forces to break through.

That’s right, there were also many second-generation descendants who were powerful gods in the universe.

However, most of these second-generation descendants had broken through using the accumulated resources, relying on treasures to protect themselves. Their true combat strength was often the average among those of the same level.

If not for the reputation of their ancestors and their factions, the second-generation descendants would have been beaten to a pulp by others of the same level.

Similar to the second generation descendants, the true combat strength of those who relied on essence energy to break through was often very weak. He could not wait to teach that brazen fellow a lesson.

The scarred man touched the scar on his face.

The scar ran from his forehead to his chin. This was not a natural scar. It was left behind in a battle where he had underestimated his opponent and almost died.

Ever since he was lucky enough to survive that time, he had treated the scar as a reminder.

“It seems to hurt a little!”

It was unknown if it was just a psychological effect or if he really had an accurate intuition when facing a powerful enemy. Anyway, the pain had successfully predicted such situations three times.

The middle-aged man in armor turned his gaze back to the big screen.

“He knew that it was a special star spirit, but he still dared to kill it openly. He’s either an ignorant fellow or someone who is extremely confident in his own strength or is hiding his strength.”

“Unfortunately, the connection between the star spirits can only facilitate a simple communication. Even they don’t know the details.”

“I can only hope that it’s not some old fox who is hiding his strength. The activity of the black tide is increasing day by day, and the various factions are short on manpower. Otherwise, I’m afraid the mission won’t be so easy to complete.”

Unlike the calm, domineering, and confident expression he displayed when facing his two burly subordinates, the middle-aged man in armor sighed at the difficulty of this secret mission in his heart.

On the surface, the mission of this spaceship was to chase and kill the human who dared to kill the star spirit. In secret, there was also a revival mission.

The middle-aged man had a strange item that he could use to snatch back the body of the star spirit and revive it to revitalize the place of its birth.

Finally, they would escort the star spirit back to the world it was born in and resettle it.

After discovering a special star spirit, those managing the star spirits would not let it wander around outside. Instead, they would give it the protection and resources it needed to grow.

In the blink of an eye, a few days had passed.

Due to the fact that the space-travel passages were about to disappear, the humans could only complete one round of transport. They would carry as much as they could, and there would be no second chance.

Therefore, other than the necessary space to move around in, the human spaceships were almost filled to the brim with the black substance. It was time to return.

The spaceships from various countries slowly rose into the sky. Then, they floated in the sky and organized themselves into groups to check on the supplies and the crew.

“Roar!”

The two dragon gods each led two dragons at the fusion realm to eliminate any threats that might affect the spaceships in the space between the dark forest world and the plate-shaped world.

The reason was that Chen Yiming had decided to take away the terrifying creatures at the fusion realm who were willing to leave with him.

In the end, not a single terrifying creature was unwilling to leave with them. There were a total of more than 100 of them. As for those below the fusion realm, they had an acceptable level of strength on this world, but they were not of much use in space. Therefore, they were not accepted as his subordinates.

The traces of the black tide on the human spaceship were too obvious. In the future, these terrifying creatures at the fusion realm would interact with the outside world on their behalf.

Humans, on the other hand, would try their best to develop their technology until they had the ability to completely replace and remove the traces of the black tide from the spaceship.

This way, the human factions suddenly expanded. There were more than 100 people at the fusion realm escorting them, and there were also four existences at the level of gods guarding them.

At this moment, the oldest dragon god was at the front. The terrifying creatures accompanying him were around him, protecting the human spaceship fleet from all angles.

Some common accidents, such as the occasional meteor flying past, could be resolved by the terrifying creatures directly before they approached, ensuring that the spaceships would not be affected by such accidents.

On the back of the oldest dragon god,

Chen Yiming narrowed his eyes and stood quietly. After the tree spirit passed on the message, the ring had returned to his hand. There was no more news from them.

The ring was still sealed off. He could no longer enter it with just a trace of his will like before.

Due to the deal they had made, the two sides had become partners. The middleman for this cooperation was the treasure tree, who was in charge of the communication between the two sides.

At this moment, a wave-shaped spatial fluctuation moved forward bit by bit from the distant void. The fluctuation was very small, but the range it triggered was very large. It was a little similar to the probing ripples emitted by a radar.

“As expected, just as the treasure tree said, the factions related to the star spirits are about to come after us.”

Chen Yiming was extremely sensitive to spatial fluctuations. Even from a distance, he could see them clearly like a fluorescent light in the night.

However, he could not track down the other party’s exact location.

“It’s been a week since we dealt with the star spirit from the dark forest world. Then, there’s still more than half a month before all the space-travel passages naturally disappear.”

“The world-level formation that the huge eye once mentioned only destroyed the remaining forces of the black tide as a side effect. The main function of that world-level formation was to use the power of the wormholes to open up a long-term, stable space-travel passage.”

“Clearly, the value it has means that it is definitely not something to be taken lightly. From my perspective, I can’t pretend not to see it either.”

Chen Yiming considered the time difference.

If the factions related to the star spirits only arrived after more than half a month, the space-travel passages would have already disappeared, and the other party would only have missed their target.

If he arrived at a certain time within half a month, he would have to stop the intruder in this space and prevent the location of the blue planet from being exposed.

Otherwise, it might be like poking at a hornet’s nest. After humans left the blue planet, they would not be able to have peace for a long time. Just like when the black tide launched a counterattack, they would send stronger existences over again and again.

In any case, as long as the coordinates of the blue planet in the universe were not exposed, he could use the coordinates of the space anchor left on the spiritual figure to shake off the other party with one space-jump.

At this thought, Chen Yiming became energized. This was the last battle before humans left the blue planet.

Half an hour later, the fleet of human spaceships had gathered and started to speed up slowly, heading towards the dark forest world that had been destroyed by the blood essence power.

Chen Yiming didn’t return with the group and stayed behind alone.
