Global Crossing: Empire of Stars

"As you can see, it really is unbelievable. But if we consider that even warships and fortresses can give birth to souls, then it's not so hard to accept that a star could give birth to one, too," Lin Zhichen replied. He gazed at the strange stellar life-form, his expression peculiar.

"What do you want to do?" She calmed her turbulent emotions and looked at him.

"Kill it, and take a look at its core while we're at it," he replied.

But his thoughts had already acted first. Violent psionic energy bloomed in space, twisting the intangible space-time into a cone.

"That's gravitational confinement! Big brother, are you imitating the Matter Decompressor?!" Wu Tianyi exclaimed, eyes wide as he sensed space-time warping around him.

"Nothing that extreme. At most, it's a stellar decompressor~" Lin Zhichen said with a laugh.

He held out both hands as if gripping the invisible fabric of space-time. A gravitational force stronger than anything inside the star was pulling vast quantities of matter out of it.

This was undoubtedly like bleeding and carving up the star. The stellar life-form, which had been indulging in its own little world, was immediately alerted. The corrupted monster flew into a rage at such provocation.

"Boom!"

Hundreds, even thousands, of tongues of flame shot out, tearing long trails across the star's surface. The surrounding void seemed to melt in the fire, rippling with waves of space.

But that was all. This burst of energy couldn't threaten Lin Zhichen and the others from light-years away. Not only could this stellar life-form control less than one percent of its own mass in energy, it had no concept of higher-dimensional space-time, let alone how to use it.

"An utter fool," Lin Zhichen remarked, taking the opportunity to increase the rate at which he
