Chapter 348

His eyes were fixed tightly on the display screen, and he could feel the starship gradually approaching the destination.

"Now, set the starship's travel mode to orbit the destination," Jifeng Jifeng Xunlei ordered.

Su Yu immediately lunged at the control console to the side, pressed a few buttons, and when the starship sailed toward the ruins, he pressed the confirm key.

The starship began to slowly circle the ruins.

Su Yu stood in front of the console, observing the "meteorite" at close range.

Actually, this meteorite wasn't small. Although it couldn't be compared to Blue Star, it was at least one-third its size.

This "meteorite" looked very strange. From where Su Yu was, it looked like it was covered in a layer of fog, appearing misty and gray, making it impossible to see what was inside.

Su Yu's curiosity was piqued, and he asked Jifeng Jifeng Xunlei:

"Can I get closer? I want to see what's under that layer of fog."

Jifeng Jifeng Xunlei clearly hesitated for a moment.

"I don't know... I haven't been to this place, and even the Giant Rhinoceros is just something I've heard of. I don't know what might be on it, but proceed with caution. I advise you not to get any closer."

After hearing this from Jifeng Jifeng Xunlei, Su Yu pulled his hand back.

He searched the panel for the landing point Jifeng Jifeng Xunlei had told him about, but to his surprise, the entire ruin was wrapped in something like fog, and he couldn't confirm the landing spot at all.

Su Yu pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling very frustrated.

"Don't be anxious," Diluoluo said, "Just look slowly. The landing point must be on the meteorite. Didn't you say you believe in yourself? Try it."

Su Yu steadied his mind. He turned his gaze back to the screen and searched for the so-called landing point.

Jifeng Jifeng Xunlei told him the landing point was at the exact center of the four-way intersection of the entire "meteorite," meaning if you treat the sphere as a plane, the landing points of the entire sphere could form a circle.

But landing this way required a very high level of skill, and Su Yu had little confidence that he could land exactly where he wanted. Furthermore, although the landing points formed a circle, the distance between points was very short, and if he was even slightly careless, it would be easy to deviate.

He swallowed hard, his eyes wandering on the panel.

The starship was constantly moving in a circle, meaning Su Yu couldn't stop to confirm the landing spot he needed, and the starship's rotation caused Su Yu's intended trajectory to deviate again.

Su Yu was somewhat on the verge of collapse, but he had always been a calm and self-possessed person. He let the starship get a little closer to the "meteorite" and then kept the starship in place, maintaining a hovering state.

The starship stopped moving, which meant Su Yu could calm down and observe the landing position.

Jifeng Jifeng Xunlei watched from the side, also feeling a bit anxious, but he advised Su Yu: "Don't be anxious, take your time."

Su Yu nodded, but his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

Success was the only option, failure was not allowed, especially since the consequences of failure were something Su Yu couldn't afford.

He tried various methods to aim at the landing point, and finally, he found a good way to mark it.

Su Yu treated the fog as dirt floating on the surface, and since dirt is always different, he took one of the black spots that happened to be stuck on the landing point as the place he was going to land this time...

Although the landing point was fixed, the actual operation was much harder than confirming the landing point.

Su Yu took a deep breath, his fingers gently flicked the joystick, and the starship sank, descending a little.

Both Machine Emperors realized that Su Yu wanted to give it a go. This time, Diluoluo didn't have any intention of joking, but said with a nervous expression:

"Don't let your hand shake, watch the position. Our margin for error is zero."

Su Yu gritted his teeth and nodded as a response to Diluoluo's words.

He didn't dare to have the slightest distraction. His palm wrapped around the joystick, controlling the starship to move up, down, left, and right, while his eyes stared fixedly at the position he was to land on, gradually approaching the "meteorite."

The closer he got, the clearer Su Yu could see. It turned out that there was no fog at all; it was a pile of sand being blown up, surrounding the entire ruin, which was why it couldn't be seen clearly.

Su Yu controlled the starship to move inside bit by bit. As he approached the landing point, he slowly closed his eyes.

"I've never believed in gods or Buddhas, but at this moment, I think I should believe in one... Amitabha..."

Diluoluo and Jifeng Jifeng Xunlei were speechless for a moment when they heard Su Yu chanting like a spell, but they remained silent when they saw Su Yu's tightly closed eyes. After all, this was the first hurdle that bet his life.

Su Yu adjusted the starship's position. If he was lucky enough, he just needed to press the forward key, and the starship would land on the designated point.

If he wasn't that lucky...

Su Yu didn't even dare to think about it, but he had an inexplicable confidence in himself; he felt he could make it.

In the dark, there was a premonition driving him to press that forward key.

But there was no other way besides moving forward; there was no retreat.

"Successful landing!" Su Yu roared, and at the same time, he pressed the landing key heavily.

His breathing stopped, and he closed his eyes, not daring to look. Jifeng Jifeng Xunlei and Diluoluo in the Card-Controlling Space also felt extremely anxious.

But the result was not satisfactory.

The moment after landing, Su Yu suddenly felt a tearing sensation. This feeling was like someone grabbing his entire body, causing him to fall apart in an instant.

Intense pain came, and Su Yu's brain went blank for a moment. Although he felt he didn't have much certainty of landing on the correct point, Su Yu felt very aggrieved to die in such a place.

He still had many things left undone, and he hadn't even finished clearing the Xunfa Secret Realm.

Su Yu saw his arm fly out, and a hole appeared where the arm had been, with blood gushing out from it continuously.

His hand was torn apart by air blades, followed by his legs, feet, limbs, and body...

He had a feeling of his internal organs being squeezed and ruptured. At the last moment before his consciousness disappeared, he heard Diluoluo's voice.

"Su Yu!!!"

It was heart-wrenching.

Su Yu slowly closed his eyes. His head was the last part to fly out.

The person was completely dead, dead very cleanly.

"Report to my Lord, another outsider has been cleared."

A person walked up to the man in white, squatted down, and said this without any emotion.

The white-clad man just raised his eyes slightly, signaling that he knew.

But then his brows suddenly furrowed, realizing something. He turned around and looked at the puppet with sharp eyes.

"The Xunfa Secret Realm has appeared?"

"Back to my Lord, yes, and the current acquirer of the Xunfa Secret Realm is a very young person... If I'm not mistaken, this person just died outside the planet."

"What did you say?"

The man in white paused, rushed to the puppet at an extremely fast speed, his expression sinking. He grabbed the puppet's neck and lifted it up.

"You tell me that the person who acquired the Xunfa Secret Realm just died in front of the planet?"

He said it word by word, almost popping them out from between his teeth. His eyes were extremely sinister, and the force in his hand made him want to crush the puppet's neck.

But the puppet itself had no vitality. Other than answering "Yes" to the man in white, it lowered its head and said nothing.

The man in white looked at it coldly, threw it to the ground nearby, and at the same time flashed out of the palace and walked outside.

The man in white flew to the highest point and saw a starship parked outside the planet.

He seemed to have a premonition, then rushed over at the fastest speed and stopped in a hovering state in front of the starship suspended in mid-air.

If he wasn't mistaken, the person inside might have already died.

A flash of annoyance crossed the face of the man in white. He flew close to the starship, his palm touching the hull. Gradually, his body became transparent and passed through the outer wall.

The scene inside made the pupils of the man in white shrink.

Bloodstains all over the floor, and severed limbs in the corner, which could be seen to belong to one person.

The man in white walked around the cabin a few times, seemingly looking for something.

When he walked to the control room, his eyes lit up.

"Found it."

The man in white walked over quickly, found Su Yu's head in the very corner of the control room, and picked it up.

He murmured: "As long as there's a head, at least there's still a head."

The man in white didn't care that the blood flowing from the head was staining his clothes. He held Su Yu's head as if holding a treasure, his attitude extremely cherished.

He walked all the way to the deepest part of the ruins—a forest exactly the same as the one in the Xunfa Secret Realm.

The man in white gently placed the head on the ground, looked at the logo unique to the ancient castle on the ground, bit his finger, and dripped a few drops of blood onto the logo. Then he took the head and placed it on the logo.

The resurrection ritual requires five preparations and has three additional conditions.

One: It must be in the only ancient castle within the Giant Rhinoceros ruins;

Two: It requires the blood of the only gatekeeper within the Giant Rhinoceros ruins;

Three: It requires a notebook written by the founder of the Giant Rhinoceros, which has the effect of attracting souls;

Four: Use spirit stones to set up an array to lead the soul into the body;

Five: Find a suitable body to lead the soul into.

And there are three additional conditions, each of which is crucial and indispensable.
