Protagonist:

Xu Changqing

Alive?

Many people revealed expressions of surprise!

Lu Wangchuan nodded: "The one in the middle, I named it 'Living Star'.

Because this planet, from star core to surface, is entirely alive.

It is covered by a layer of immeasurable living tissue, with a texture between flesh and plant.

Stepping on it is soft, it has temperature, and it even wriggles continuously underfoot.

After probing with Divine Sense, it was discovered that every inch of this planet is undergoing contraction and expansion at an extremely slow but never-ceasing rhythm.

Even more troublesome, its surface will suddenly split open without any warning, swallow things inside, and then close up in an instant.

So far, those who were swallowed have never come out."

Feng Buhui raised an eyebrow: "What exactly is inside this planet?"

Lu Wangchuan shook his head: "Unclear. All Divine Sense that attempted to probe inside were ultimately rebounded back.

However, one thing can be confirmed: this planet has an extremely strong affinity for Wood Attribute Laws. When I probed with a spatial mark, the reaction intensity of Wood Dao Laws was over ten times that of other attributes.

If the entrance to the Eternal Night Ruins is truly within this Triangle Zone, it is most likely hidden inside the Living Star.

Because the other two planets, namely Hell Star and Frozen Hell Star, although their environments are extreme, are essentially pure elements.

One is a mixture of fire and earth forming metal magma, the other is a mixture of water and ice forming extreme cold crystals.

Neither of the two planets has any reaction to Wood Attribute Laws; only the Living Star does, and the reaction is extremely strong."

Hundred Li Hong asked with a grin: "In other words, if Junior Brother Xu wants to probe, he must enter the interior of the Living Star, and even stay there for a period of time.

To tell the truth, there is definitely risk, and it's not small.

Lao Jiu, what do you say?"

Not only Hundred Li Hong, but the gazes of Feng Buhui, Jin Buhuan, Lu Wangchuan, and Mo Li all shifted onto Xu Changqing at this moment.

Everyone was waiting for his attitude.

If the entrance to the Eternal Night Ruins is not in the Living Star, then Xu Changqing would not only have taken a risk for nothing, but might also get injured.

If the entrance is inside the Living Star, then this risk must be taken.

Because on the entire flying ship, only Xu Changqing has a Wood Spirit Root.

Moreover, only he can discover Reverse Five Elements.

Send anyone else down, even if they could wander inside the Living Star and return, they would be unable to make an accurate judgment.

Xu Changqing, hearing this, stood up from his seat, walked to the window, and gazed through the defensive array toward the void ahead.

On the left is a crimson light spot.

That is Hell Star; its surface temperature is high enough to directly vaporize the magic treasures of a Spirit Severing cultivator.

Even across more than ten thousand li of void, one can see the metal magma surging on that planet's surface emitting a dim crimson glow in the darkness.

On the right is a black dot so dark it is almost invisible.

That is Frozen Hell Star; the entire planet reflects no light at all. Divine Sense sweeping over it can only sense a spherical contour.

As for the largest one in the very middle, that is the Living Star.

It is deep green, yet emits no green light.

The planet's contour is expanding and contracting extremely slowly.

Xu Changqing watched for several breaths, feeling somewhat helpless inside.

The first position was the Star Pulse Wrinkle; he made a trip for nothing, only discovering a Wood Origin Stone.

The second position is the Living Star in the Triangle Zone; just hearing Lu Wangchuan's description is already outrageous enough, not to mention he still has to drill into the Living Star's interior to probe.

If here is also not it, the third position requires running even farther.

And the time for the Eternal Night Ruins to open is only a few days away.

If all three positions turn up empty, the time aspect will be extremely tight.

But helpless as it is, this is his task, and also his opportunity.

No matter how dangerous this trip is, he must do it personally.

Luo Qinghan couldn't help but ask: "How is it?"

"I'll go."

Xu Changqing turned around and said in a deep voice: "The first position has already been ruled out. If the second position is skipped because of fear of danger, then Daoist Lu's star position data would have no meaning at all.

No matter what is inside the Living Star, I must go down and probe."

After hearing Xu Changqing's words, Luo Qinghan's gaze moved back and forth between the three stars outside the window. Her cold, absolute face showed no obvious change, but then she suddenly said: "How about this, I'll go with you.

The situation inside the Living Star is unknown, and unknown means uncontrollable.

If something happens, I can at least lend you a hand."

"Alright."

Xu Changqing agreed.

Next, the two prepared for a while, then left the flying ship.

The moment they emerged, a wave of extreme cold Qi from the No-Light Star Domain madly rushed in.

Fortunately, for the two of them, it caused no harm whatsoever, and could even be ignored.

The two flew off the flying ship, one ahead of the other.

Once they reached the void, the strange law environment of the No-Light Star Domain took effect on both of them.

Xu Zhangqing discovered that any spiritual light he released beyond three feet around his body would be swallowed by some invisible force in the void.

At the same time, the moonlight on Luo Qinghan was compressed into an extremely small halo, barely circling her body.

It looked like a lone lamp that had not been extinguished in a storm.

The two silently adjusted their direction and flew toward that deep-green Living Star.

After flying for about half an hour, Luo Qinghan suddenly stopped; she turned to face Xu Zhangqing, and Cold Moon behind her brightened slightly—though the moonlight was compressed by the No-Light Star Domain, it still cast a cold, clear glow on her face: "Ninth Junior Brother, actually, going out this time to exterminate the Ancient Cang Lei Tribe or to find the entrance to the Eternal Night Ruins—"

"The reason I followed the whole way was not because of the task given by our master."

Xu Zhangqing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Elder Sister, what do you mean?"

Luo Qinghan said somewhat helplessly, "My cultivation has already reached a bottleneck."

"On the Cold Moon path, after reaching this step of the Transcendence Path, going further cannot be broken through by meditation and accumulating magic power alone."

"It requires some extremely rare resources, and only our master possesses these resources."

"In the entire Xianfu, only Eldest Senior Brother and I are disciples who can ask our master for resources, but Eldest Senior Brother cultivates the time law and has no use for them."

"Therefore, this time I led the team for the entire journey just to make our master satisfied."

The other party's sincerity surprised Xu Zhangqing somewhat.

He had always felt that Luo Qinghan's attitude in this matter was indeed more serious than anyone else's.

He originally thought it was due to her personality that she did things rigorously, only now learning of the urgency behind her.

A xiuxian zhe who had reached the Mahayana Stage and chosen the Transcendence Path, if still blocked by some resource—

then the rarity of this thing must be at a level Xu Zhangqing currently cannot access.

Moreover, Luo Qinghan daring to tell him this to his face was itself trust in a fellow disciple.

After thinking it over, Xu Zhangqing finally said seriously, "Elder Sister, rest assured; if there is any place where Junior Brother is needed, I will certainly do my utmost!"
