Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

However, Xu Zhangqing did not give up; next, he swept the Blue Yuan Light back and forth through the Star Pulse Wrinkle three more times.

It was a pity that the result of every sweep was completely identical to the first.

To rule out interference from the Star Pulse Wrinkle itself on his Divine Sense, he even manipulated the Five Colors Yuan Light to probe deep together as a group.

White corresponds to Metal.

Black corresponds to Water.

Red corresponds to Fire.

Yellow corresponds to Earth.

Simultaneously from the other four directions, they probed together into the Balance Zone.

Using the complete cycle of Five Elements Mutual Generation to verify this region.

The Five Colors Yuan Light intertwined in the Star Pulse Wrinkle into a constantly rotating Five Elements Law Ring; with each revolution, the ring fed back all absorbed Law Fluctuations to Xu Zhangqing.

Alas, there was only one result.

The Wood Dao Law here is entirely normal, without any characteristics of the Eternal Night Ruins.

That Wood Origin Stone naturally formed inside the star core counts as an extra harvest.

Xu Zhangqing silently noted the position of this star core in his heart.

Although this is not the entrance to the Eternal Night Ruins, a fist-sized Wood Origin Stone is absolutely a resource that cannot be wasted.

After the matter of the Eternal Night Ruins is finished, he can make a special trip back to retrieve it.

Once his mind was set, Xu Zhangqing withdrew the Five Colors Yuan Light from the Star Pulse Wrinkle; the five beams of light, like five thin threads being pulled back, returned orderly to his palm.

Afterward, Xu Zhangqing turned and returned to the Flying Ship.

Seeing him return, Luo Qinghan raised an eyebrow: "How did it go?"

"Not here."

Xu Zhangqing walked to the Star Map and tapped the Balance Zone between the brown dwarf and the gas giant: "There are indeed Wood Dao Law fluctuations inside the Star Pulse Wrinkle.

Their source is a Wood Origin Stone naturally formed inside a dead star core.

The quality is very high.

But the Wood Dao Law in this region all operates within the normal Five Elements Cycle; not a single spot shows Reverse Five Elements characteristics.

The entrance to the Eternal Night Ruins could not possibly be opened in a place where the Five Elements Cycle is complete."

After listening, Luo Qinghan hesitated not at all, turned to Lu Wangchuan and instructed: "First position eliminated; we go to the second."

Lu Wangchuan nodded expressionlessly, his hand sweeping lightly across the Star Map projection; the first Silver Light Point on the map went dark accordingly.

As for the second light point's position, it was enlarged to the center of the projection.

This position is much farther than the first.

From the Star Map, it has already left the range of Dongji Lingzhou, located deep in Beili Xuezhou, at the edge of that region cultivators call the "No-Light Star Domain".

Jin Buhuan looked up at the Star Map, his tone carrying a hint of caution: "This second position Daoist Lu chose — the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce has never set up an outpost there, but the merchant caravan cargo records do have a few relevant entries.

That star domain has several extremely rare Spirit Mine veins nearby, of very high quality.

But the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce mining teams went three times, and all three times they lost men.

Later, they simply designated that star domain as a high Spiritual Root Risk zone.

According to the cultivators who returned, several stars in that domain have reached an extreme state: some are entirely liquid metal, some have temperatures so low even Spiritual Energy freezes into Ice Crystals.

In the Void, extremely unstable Space Rifts also appear from time to time."

Baili Hong laughed upon hearing this, tilting his head at Jin Buhuan: "President Jin, the more you say, the more I want to go see.

Besides, what level of Opportunity is the Eternal Night Ruins?

If its entrance opened on a mortal planet with birdsong and fragrant flowers, that would be absurd!

The more dangerous the place, the more likely it is the correct position."

Feng Buhui added unhurriedly: "Fourth Senior Brother makes sense, but there is one point that needs advance preparation.

President Jin just mentioned that star domain has unstable Space Rifts.

I can use the rifts to set up a Kongjian Ganying Fashen.

At that time, I may need Daoist Lu's help throughout."

Lu Wangchuan nodded slightly: "No problem."

His spatial mark, since being shocked with cracks last time, has recovered over nine-tenths after these days of repair.

Although not thoroughly recovered, it is enough to cope with possible spatial interference.

After Luo Qinghan locked the second light point on the Star Map as the current navigation target, she headed toward her room; passing by Xu Zhangqing's side, she stopped a step: "The Eternal Night Ruins has only one entrance; if you still cannot sense Reverse Five Elements fluctuations at the second position, then the third position…"

Xu Zhangqing nodded: "Understood."

The final outcome has only two possibilities.

Either the third position is also not the entrance.

Or the third position must be the entrance.

And the reason Luo Qinghan did not immediately return to the Beidou Xianfu after eliminating the first position, but insisted on running the remaining two.

On one hand, it was out of trust in Lu Wangchuan; on the other, she also wanted to show off a bit.

If she could lead the team to be the first to find the Eternal Night Ruins, she could show her face before her Master.

By then, some resources could be obtained.

……

……

The flying ship slowly turned, and after leaving the range between the brown dwarf and the gaseous giant star, it accelerated toward the depths of the Endless Star Domain.

Outside the window, the celestial phenomena became increasingly desolate at a speed visible to the naked eye during the subsequent journey.

The merchant caravans and cargo fleets that could occasionally be seen before had now completely disappeared.

The spirit mine planets that marked the trade routes also vanished into the starry sky behind them, replaced by an increasingly dark void.

The number of stars sharply decreased, and the few remaining ones could only show faint cold light.

The temperature kept dropping, falling from normal temperature to an extreme cold zone that was fatal enough for low-level cultivators.

Under the pressure of low temperature, the flying ship's defensive dharma array enveloped the entire hull with a golden spiritual light protective shield.

Meanwhile, the temperature inside the hull was maintained at a stable range suitable for cultivators to move about.

After sailing for about another twelve days, outside the window it was already black beyond description.

To the naked eye, almost no luminous celestial body could be seen.

One could only rely on divine sense to probe in the completely lightless void.

This extreme lightless environment indicated that the flying ship had already entered the edge of the No-Light Star Domain.

In fact, the No-Light Star Domain was not simply a dark night space, but a remnant region where all "light" had been drawn away by some unknown power from the Ancient Period.

In this star domain, light could not propagate normally.

Even if a spirit lamp was lit, its light would be completely devoured by some law remaining in the void once it left the hand by three feet.

The entire star domain was like a void black hole.

Lu Wangchuan's voice sounded: "The second position, directly ahead two hundred thousand li.

A triangle zone formed by three stars.

However, there is one thing that needs to be said in advance: the environment of those three stars is extremely harsh.

The one on the left is entirely liquid metal, named Hell Star.

Its surface temperature is high enough to vaporize the magic treasures of Nascent Soul cultivators.

The one on the right is exactly the opposite, with the entire planet covered by a layer of black ice crystals.

The temperature is so low that not a trace of life exists, named Frozen Hell Star.

As for the one in the middle, it is even more outrageous: it is alive!"
