Chapter 1672: Quickly Call Seeing Ange to Save Me

"Your Majesty, this is the Pure Melting Flame. After you touch it... once you receive compensation, throw this thing into their bodies. The little angel will then carry Luna and Shama La to contaminate him. One divine star—we'll squeeze it twice." Anthony said.

The king took the Pure Melting Flame and sighed: "Still, you godmen are dark indeed. Alright, I'm leaving. I'll call you again once I find Lania."

Although the king said he wanted to go kill Kelania, Anthony said it wasn't necessary, because their original target was never Kelania.

Their primary goal is to find the Spacetime Ancient Dragon, and the second is to kill the Foreign Realm Ghosts—but that goal has already changed.

When they realized the Foreign Realm Ghost might be a weapon, destroying it was no longer the optimal choice—controlling it is.

"Others are ghost guides, and so are we. Why can't the Foreign Realm Ghost be guided by us?"

However, the information we currently have is too scarce, so we don't yet know where to begin. The best approach is to go to the Rui Pan and find the main body of the Foreign Realm Ghost—but that's for later.

The first and second goals aren't that easy to achieve, and right now Ang is inside the sixth divine star, forging his Stellar Body. Any target plan must wait until Ang completes his training.

So the king doesn't need to go kill anyone—just keep doing the "bump and claim" routine to gain some incremental progress. If we encounter the Master of Lania on the road, we'll call everyone.

For the coming period, everyone will continue maneuvering within this mist belt, shielding the sixth divine star.

The mist belt is truly vast—it can hold hundreds or even thousands of divine stars. Hiding here, wanting to bump into something truly depends on luck.

Ten months later, Anthony suddenly received a message from the king: "I've found Lania's location—come help me."

Everyone's spirits lifted, and they rushed swiftly to the king's position.

At this moment, the king stood on a small fragment of rock within the mist belt, surrounded by all kinds of mist, completely unable to see any trace of Lania.

"Where is Lania?" Nagris asked urgently.

The king pointed in a direction and said: "Over there. I didn't dare get closer—I felt something strange. Come over and give me a reference."

"I moved horizontally in this direction for one day, then vertically the same distance for three days—what's going on?"

Nagris said: "Space is distorted, but how do you know it's the same distance?"

"When I left your group, I released a soul as a reference marker. Everywhere I go, I toss a new soul to serve as a coordinate reference." The king said.

Nagris slapped his waist: "Good idea."

The greatest danger in the void is losing direction. Ang and his companions, upon arriving in the outer realm, have never worried about positioning—because they immediately established a soul network node upon arrival; otherwise, they wouldn't dare come out at all.

The first soul network node in the outer realm is Luomurol, using a divine star as its node. The entire outer realm's soul network is stabilized so firmly it's almost unbelievable. Luomurol stays there, serving as the brightest reference marker.

But the king doesn't have such a good reference point—he can only establish a new reference point wherever he goes, like constantly drawing arrows in a maze.

Moreover, these reference points break with distance—ordinary soul network connections are short-ranged. Initially, the king's soul network severed upon reaching the Star Position Plane.

Of course, the king's soul is now much stronger, but the outside world has also grown vastly larger.

Earlier, the king teleported to the Furnace Branch, leaving all soul reference points in the Lania Branch behind. Without the Boundless Gate, he wouldn't even be able to find his way back.

The best solution would be to connect to Ang's soul network—but everyone tacitly avoids mentioning it.

After confirming spatial distortion in this area, Emperor Luoni and Hesiro immediately began calculating the distortion's extent. Missing data would be gathered by the king, and all data would eventually be compiled by Nagris.

Nagris, who usually can't do anything right, finally demonstrated astonishing ability in calculations—he quickly computed the distortion across each face and presented it visually through Ang's field of view.

In Ang's vision, space appears as a grid formed by lines, each cell a precise cube. If space is distorted, these cubes deform accordingly—allowing us to visually determine where and how much deformation occurs.

Currently, the grid shows a massive spatial depression: all grids converge toward the center, sinking inward to form a huge funnel-like shape.

Hesiro said doubtfully: "Strange—such a massive spatial distortion, yet gravity here shows no change?"

If gravity had changed, the matter here would be stretched into uneven bands like a silent dead zone—but instead, it's uniformly distributed.

Ursman said: "A massive object has compensated for gravity's effect on space."

Hesiro suddenly understood: "Oh, is Lania there?" He said while pointing to the center of the funnel.

The king exhaled in relief: "Thanks to you all coming—I've been looping around here for ages, unable to find the right position. I clearly know Lania is in that direction, but I just can't get close."

Nagris asked doubtfully: "Can't get close? That shouldn't be right—this funnel-shaped distortion should pull everything toward the center."

If the king had eyeballs, he'd already be rolling his eyes: "I'm afraid I'll bump into him and get killed in one hit—I need to know where he is first, so I can sneak around him."

Nagris blushed and admitted: "Yeah, in the mist, the worst thing isn't staying still—it's running around blindly. One misstep and you stumble into a beast's territory and get slapped to death."

In the mist, visibility matters more than anything.

"So what do we do now?" Nagris changed the subject.

The king said: "You stay here—I'll go ahead first to find a safer, closer point, then call you."

After speaking, the king glanced at the 'funnel,' then tossed out a Soul Heart: "My memory is stored inside. If I die, have Ang revive me."

Saying that, he dematerialized his body and flew forward, flew a distance, then tossed another Soul Heart—using them as dashed lines to trace the funnel's edge in the void.

After an unknown amount of time, the king sent a message: "I've successfully entered Lania's body—but he seems to recognize me, acting fearless and overconfident. I have a bad feeling—quickly shout for Ang to save me."
