369: Success

Shen Siyang's Spiritual Ear turned from transparent to pitch black, like a black hole.

Such a strange phenomenon must mean that the "heart's image" is about to appear in the world, so Lu Li quickly Spirit Concentration to observe it closely.

According to his guess, this thing should be like a baby bird hatching from its shell, crawling out of something.

Strangely, a mysterious "suction" suddenly arose in the arena, drawing everything in that direction.

The force was very weak, and in theory there was no need to pay attention to it, but Lu Li's expression suddenly changed!

Suddenly, the black hole-like Spiritual Ear was enveloped in a ring of light, which slowly rotated around itself.

Lu Li exclaimed in surprise, "Accretion Disk!?"

Accretion Disk is a disk-shaped structure that orbits a star or other celestial body with strong gravitational pull.

The size of the Spiritual Ear is far from sufficient, and what moves around it is light! Light captured by gravity!

Even light cannot escape; it's a spectacle only seen through black holes! But how is that possible?

"Manifestation were to involve creating a black hole, the entire universe would have been wiped out long ago, right? That clearly doesn't make sense."

Lu Li felt it shouldn't be a black hole, but how could he explain the current situation?

After a moment's thought, he came up with an answer.

"If it's related to gravity... Dark Matter?"

His mind searched rapidly, quickly retrieving the information Lu Li needed.

"Dark Matter" sounds fantastical, but it is actually a major component of the universe's matter, accounting for at least one-quarter of the universe's total mass-energy.

However, this substance does not interact with electromagnetic waves, nor does it emit electromagnetic waves, and therefore cannot be observed by current means.

And you can imagine how important these most fundamental components of the universe are!

It provides most of the gravity, binding galaxies into their current form and preventing planets from being flung around.

Dark Matter can be seen as the "thread" that holds the necklace together, maintaining the normal functioning of the universe!

This is so crucial that countries Blue Star are searching for it frantically.

The Xia Country has built the Jinping Underground Laboratory, located 2,400 meters underground, to actively capture Dark Matter.

Recalling the data, Lu Li looked at Spiritual Ear, which resembled a black hole, and felt that the guess about Dark Matter was more reliable.

Meanwhile, Edison, the foreigner attending the meeting, was staring intently at the center of the lake, preparing to capture Dark Matter.

Shen Xing and Fan Chengbin also unleashed their full power, their surging vitality transforming into billowing Qi and Blood Smoke, guarding against any potential villains.

Of course, the probability is very low, after all, the Shen family has three Grandmaster present.

One of them was panting heavily, clearly about to reach his limit.

It was at this moment that Shen Siyang's "Spiritual Ear" suddenly cracked open.

A blue dragon head, bigger than a minibus, forced its way out!

With its majestic and imposing appearance, it is clearly a standard Divine Continent dragon, and it is struggling to break free!

The "Spiritual Ear," as black as a hole, seemed to possess a tremendous suction force, preventing the Azure Dragon from leaving.

The Azure Dragon was enormous, yet it was powerless against the darkness behind it, struggling repeatedly but unable to break free.

The onlookers grew anxious, but the next second, a loud roar was heard, Shen Siyang, who had not shown himself until now, appeared.

He appeared in the lake directly beneath the "Spiritual Ear," stepping onto the surface, and roared as he shoved with both hands:

"Pay it to me!!!"

Azure Dragon Heart also roared in response, then leaped out of the darkness and came fully into the real world!

This is a blue dragon over 80 meters long, which carried its master on its head, soaring through the sky and roaring continuously!

The winds and waves it stirred up during its flight were enough to uproot large trees, causing the guests on the ground to scream in alarm.

"It really is a Azure Dragon! How majestic! How awe-inspiring!"

"The true form of Manifestation True Lord is normally only about 30 meters in size, right? This is huge, I wonder how powerful his combat strength is!"

The crowd gasped in shock, but the next second they heard an explosion.

Turning my head, I saw that Edison's instrument was emitting a large plume of black smoke, indicating that the experiment had failed.

The crowd burst into laughter and jokes.

Edison, with a sour face, cursed under his breath:

"Barbarians of the Far East, do you think that the manifestation of spirit in the material world is merely summoning a biting monster? How foolish!"

He didn't linger and quickly left with the wreckage of the equipment and his assistant.

But Lu Li noticed the commotion and asked Su Qing, "What are these foreigners doing?"

Su Qing said tremblingly, "Um... um... it's people from General Electric Company. They said they want to capture some kind of Dark Matter."

Lu Li nodded, confirming his earlier guess.

He looked at the slowly dissipating black "Spiritual Ear" and summarized his experience from this observation:

"According to the <Manifestation Comprehending Truth Chapter>, this is the Cultivator's Sea of Consciousness, connected to the real world through the Divine Soul."

"Through this, the mind transcends the material world, and the Manifestation is achieved!"

"And the basis upon which the mind exists, the components that make up the body, must be Dark Matter!"

With the Manifestation no longer a concern, I can now return to break through to the next level!

Of course, this realm is not as simple as summoning a monster to bite people; there are endless mysteries waiting for Lu Li to discover for himself.

In a burst of passionate fervor, another series of clanging sounds erupted, and instantly, a torrent of Yin Yuan gushed forth.

As if by some unseen force, Shen Siyang, who was performing a dragon dance in the sky, suddenly felt a surge of hatred and wanted to take revenge on Lu Li as soon as possible!

"I'm going to have sex with your wife right in front of you! I'll have sex with her until she dies!"

Shen Siyang looked resentful, but seeing his father beckoning him to leave, he quickly put on an arrogant expression and rode a dragon down from the sky.

Guests flocked in like a tide, showering them with flattery:

"The Shen family has gained a dragon son! With such a heart and appearance, his power must be immense. He is truly the envy of others!"

"The Azure Dragon belongs to the element of wood, and its Dragon Horn and mane are green, truly exuding vitality~"

"True Man Shen... Hey, look at my mouth, I should call you True Lord Shen. You've advanced to the Saintly Manifestation and will even marry a beautiful Female Grandmaster — Shuangxi indeed!"

These words tickled Shen Siyang's sore spot, and he couldn't help but smile reservedly and nod to the speaker.

Seeing that their mission was accomplished, Shen Xing wanted to further demonstrate the combat power of his Grandmaster, so he said:

"It's a rare occasion for everyone to gather here today. Cultivators don't stand on ceremony, so let Su Qing come out and greet our guests."

Shen Siyang also wanted to show off his grandmaster-level wife, so he arranged for a steward to go and summon her.

Lu Li, having just shivered a few times, announced the end of the work with a "bo".

Mission accomplished, now it's time to leave.

He was about to hand over the benefits to Su Qing as agreed when he found her leaning on the windowsill and crying.

Tears streamed down her face, like beads falling from a broken string.

"Hey... what's wrong?"

Lu Li was somewhat puzzled... Although he had acted inhumanly just now, he was still a Grandmaster, so he shouldn't be unable to withstand it.

Su Qing put her skirt down, wiped away her tears, and said:

"Damn it, if I'd known things would turn out like this, I should have stayed home! Being poor and working hard was better than having this joyous occasion ruined by you, you beast!"

Lu Li's face stiffened, and he lowered his head, saying:

"Um... Here, take the things. I should go now."

"Give it to me."

Su Qing rubbed her face, regaining her Pure and Ethereal appearance.

But as soon as she stood up, she and Lu Li looked out the window together—a butler had already approached!

The house can block prying eyes, but in turn, it also affects the senses of those inside.
