Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

On this side of the dome, the disorderly Wood Dao Law had proliferated to the extreme, forming a law barrier with almost no gaps.

The proliferated laws kept piling up around the folds, and every time they accumulated to a certain degree, they would be temporarily combed open by that periodic fluctuation, revealing an extremely tiny, fleeting law gap.

Moreover, it existed for no more than three breaths; after three breaths, new proliferated laws would refill the gap.

"This must be intentional."

Xu Zhangqing stared at the gap and said thoughtfully, "If disorderly proliferation isn't combed through, it will eventually block up the entire cultivation space."

"Therefore, the person behind the scenes reserved a periodic mechanism; every time a fluctuation passes, it temporarily straightens out part of the proliferated laws."

"This isn't an exit, but for us, it is the only exit."

Afterward, Yuan Dao analyzed the fluctuation at a speed far surpassing divine sense.

The moment each fluctuation was transmitted from outside the dome, the law barrier inside the fold would, for an extremely brief instant, reveal a weak point that could be reversed by the five-colored primal light.

As long as we pour the five-colored primal light into the interior of the barrier at the moment this weak point opens, we can forcefully squeeze out a passage from the gaps in the proliferated laws.

And this is the Living Star's only weakness.

The Wood Dao Law exists within the Five Elements Cycle, so operations following the Five Elements will be absorbed and merged by it as part of proliferation, while operations reversing the Five Elements, though they can only be maintained for an extremely short time, will be identified by the proliferated laws as "foreign entities" within that extremely short time.

"Junior Brother, are you sure?"

"Senior Sister, you must follow closely behind me!"

"Oh?"

"The interval between each fluctuation is extremely short; if we miss the first time, we can only wait for the next round. We must pass through at the very first moment the fluctuation appears!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Qinghan immediately contracted the Vacuum Law Realm to fit closely around the two of them.

And she handed over complete control to Xu Zhangqing.

Not long after, the fluctuation arrived.

The moment it passed through the dark green liquid layer outside the dome and was transmitted into the inside of the fold, Xu Zhangqing decisively activated the five-colored primal light, then shot it in reverse into the gap within the barrier.

Green, white, black, red, yellow—the five-colored lights rotated in reverse, and at the moment they collided with the forward flow of the proliferated laws, they emitted an extremely piercing low hum.

The cilia around the gap were torn apart root by root by this opposing force.

Before new proliferated laws could come to patch it up, the gap was forcibly held open by the five-colored primal light.

The next second, Xu Zhangqing brought Luo Qinghan and squeezed in.

As they went all the way up, who knows how long passed, before the two suddenly saw emptiness, then light before their eyes.

That layer of skin on the Living Star's surface appeared once again beneath the two's feet.

At the same time, the fluctuation was pushing over from the distance toward this direction.

Everything was not too different from before they sank in.

Xu Zhangqing let out a sigh of relief: "Finally out."

Luo Qinghan seemed to sense something and hurriedly called out: "Hurry."

Before Xu Zhangqing could react, she took his hand and rose into the air.

Whoosh—

The two flew toward outside the planet at extremely high speed.

On the other side, the flying ship reacted quickly as well.

Almost at the instant the two rushed out of the Living Star, Lu Wangchuan piloted the flying ship to meet them.

The next second, Xu Zhangqing and Luo Qinghan landed one after another on the flying ship's deck.

After Xu Zhangqing steadied himself, the first thing he did was look back at the Living Star.

That dark green planet rapidly shrank into a green light spot in the field of vision.

Then came the crimson halo of the Hell Star and the lightless pitch-black contour of the Frozen Hell Star; finally, the entire Triangle Zone became faint light spots.

Not long after, they were cleanly swallowed by the darkness of the No-Light Star Domain.

Jin Buhuan was very curious: "You've finally come out. What's the situation down there?"

Luo Qinghan did not answer, but instead issued a command to Lu Wangchuan: "Leave here first, directly head to the third position."

"The situation inside the Living Star, we'll talk about it on the way."

Lu Wangchuan nodded, then locked onto the third silver light spot on the star map projection.

That was the last position suspected to be the entrance to the Eternal Night Ruins, nearly twice as far from the second position, located in a void with absolutely no star distribution at the border between the No-Light Star Domain and Beili Xuezhou.

……

……

The flying ship sailed for over two more days in the No-Light Star Domain, and the darkness outside the window finally changed.

The ice crystal belt on the outer perimeter of Beili Xuezhou reflected starlight from a distance.

Although the brightness was not enough to illuminate the void, in this environment almost devoid of light, it was enough to lift one's spirits.

"About time. Speak, Lao Jiu."

Hundred Li Hong stood with arms crossed, wearing a very curious expression.

Upon these words, everyone looked toward Xu Zhangqing, waiting for him to speak.

"It's like this..."

Xu Zhangqing recounted the entire process from beginning to end.

First, the Living Star is a life carrier remodeled by someone; internally, it uses the Wood Dao Law of disordered proliferation to construct an extremely large cultivation space.

Second, inside grows a World Tree, surrounded by a large number of Flower Buds, and within each Flower Bud is sealed a living person.

Third, if one wishes to leave, the best method is to reach the top of the World Tree, use the fluctuations transmitted from outside, and thereby open a gap.

After Xu Zhangqing finished speaking, everyone remained silent for ten full breaths.

The first to break the silence was Lu Wangchuan: "So it turns out that those missing prospecting teams and loose cultivators were not swallowed by the Living Star and died inside, but were swallowed by the Living Star and planted inside."

No wonder no corpse appeared, no remnant soul escaped; in the end, they all became nourishment for the World Tree and Human Head Fruits.

Jin Buhuan's face changed greatly: "So that's how it is; the three prospecting teams I sent out, adding up to nearly forty xiuxian zhe before and after, even included a Void Refinement Supreme Elder."

But I never imagined they were planted inside."

Hundred Li Hong narrowed his eyes: "The Cang Lei Ancient Clan sacrifices living people to the Lord of Red Clothes, while the Living Star uses living people as nourishment for cultivation."

These two places: one uses living people for blood sacrifice, the other uses laws for cultivation."

They seem to differ, but in reality, they both use the lives of xiuxian zhe as expendable materials."

Is this the work of an Outer Realm Evil Force?"

Or an evil cultivator bred within the Endless Star Domain?"

"The Living Star is most likely not an Evil Force, but its malevolence is no less than that of an Evil Force."

Luo Qinghan took up Hundred Li Hong's words: "We have personally experienced the power of the Lord of Red Clothes at the Cang Lei Ancient Clan."

That power is fundamentally different from the situation inside the Living Star."

One could say they are not within the same system."

The Lord of Red Clothes is from outside, and his system does not belong here."

Whereas the situation inside the Living Star is exactly the opposite; it possesses laws familiar to everyone."

Therefore, this is not an invasion by an Evil Force, but rather some force within the Endless Star Domain, having access to the scarce resource of the World Tree, secretly constructed the entire Living Star!
