The Price
Upon slight contact with the "singularity," Lu Li's torso immediately crumbled and dissipated.
But this is much milder than the previous complete loss of limbs; at least the process was visible.
Moreover, the arm that touched the "singularity" did not disappear; only a few fingers were worn away, which shows that Lu Li has gradually adapted to the "singularity."
After all, it contains the contributions of several wives, and the main part is based on Lu Li himself, making it highly compatible.
Lu Li can even manipulate the gravity generated by the "singularity" to a certain extent, minimizing the damage he suffers.
However, he was still far from merging with the black hole, Lu Li immediately immersed his thoughts into the microscopic world, completely dissolving the "singularity" at the atomic level.
Everything in the universe is made up of elementary particles, while the "singularity"... is nothing at all.
Matter with millions of times the mass of the sun collapsed into such a point.
Its density is infinitely large, so large that it becomes "nothingness," becoming... 0.
Here, everything loses its meaning; only gravity is at work.
"Gravity bends spacetime, and when gravity reaches its limit, it can cause a point to detach from the real universe and disappear from the three-dimensional coordinate system..."
Lu Li suddenly understood, and at the same time, he replayed the scene of the Primal being devouring the Supreme Heaven and others.
The 500 Star God, like raindrops, flowed directly into the Primal long dress.
"That's the effect of 'merging with the black hole'; in the Primal body, only gravity is still at work!"
"Between particles, between electrons, protons, and neutrons, only gravity remains!"
With a clear understanding, and following the guidance, Lu Li's vanished body gradually regenerated!
With his talent and numerous fortuitous encounters, breaking through to a higher realm is only a matter of time.
But what we lack most right now is time!
Outside, Gong Xue and the others stared intently at the Kunlun Mirror, fearing that Primal would cause trouble again.
To be on the safe side, Qiu Sheng repeatedly reinforced the original structure with his own divine sense, and then suppressed it with the Xuanyuan Sword.
After doing all this, Qiu Sheng finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked the question that had been bothering her:
How could the Primal Kunlun Mirror have any influence?
Only Gong Xue could guess at this question. Now that the black hole's oscillations were diminishing, she was able to free her hands and pondered:
"Perhaps it's because the Primal One once struck the Kunlun Mirror with his claw, leaving some residual mark?"
That makes some sense, but the five holes in the Kunlun Mirror had already healed, and the last one was slowly repaired by Lu Li using his divine sense.
Qiu Sheng also raised a question, "If even a trace of external force exists within a magical artifact, it will cause a severe rejection reaction and make it impossible to refine... This doesn't make sense."
This is common knowledge, especially since the magical artifacts of the women are spoils of war; without erasing the original owner's mark, they cannot be refined at all.
The room fell silent. Gong Xue frowned and remained silent, then suddenly her face showed surprise!
Just then, Qiu Sheng also thought of something and hurriedly asked, "Back then, your true spirit was scattered, what about the Kunlun Mirror?"
"It must have been... eaten by the Primal."
Gong Xue said in a daze, "I was the first to attack, and I was sent flying. I vaguely saw the Primal being tear through the Kunlun Mirror, take out the True Spirit, and swallow it."
"That means it was eaten... no, it was fused with!"
Qiu Sheng immediately understood. "Simply swallowing it won't give you this kind of remote intrusion ability; only fusion can allow it to cause trouble by relying on its connection with the original body!"
This is probably the reason, and everyone agrees with it.
Gong Xue gritted her teeth and said, "No wonder the Primal was able to successfully develop sentience!"
Once you reach the Primal level, breaking free from your cocoon and undergoing a transformation is even more difficult than breaking through to the boundless realm.
If one could fuse with a magical artifact Artifact Spirit that is similar to oneself, the difficulty would be greatly reduced.
But now there's still a problem... Qiu Sheng suddenly shouted:
"Could Primal use this to discover Lu Li's whereabouts and come looking for him!?"
Gong Xue's expression was not good. "With the interference of the Galactic Center black hole, the Primal cannot pinpoint its exact location, but it definitely has a general direction... It can't hold out for long."
"Hopefully Lu Li arrives in time."
Qiu Sheng sighed and looked at the black hole.
Xiao Cha shouted with unwavering conviction, "He can definitely do it!"
After speaking, she began to pray for Lu Li in her heart.
The black hole had now completely calmed down, and there was nothing anyone could do but silently pray.
Time ticked by, and the wait was agonizing.
Qiu Sheng still had to keep the Kunlun Mirror in check, while Gong Xue kept an eye on the outside world, guarding against the attack from the Primal One.
As if what you feared most had come to pass. Less than half an hour later, a powerful ripple swept across Sagittarius A* *, where the Galactic Center black hole was located.
This force, naturally originating from the Primal, was used merely for scanning, yet it caused thousands of stars within its range to suddenly dim, nearly extinguishing them.
Although it didn't penetrate the black hole at the Galactic Center, it will certainly be able to detect anomalies.
Sure enough, another equally powerful ripple swept in, this time aimed directly at the Galactic Center black hole.
"Oh no! We've been discovered!"
Gong Xue immediately shouted, "Qiu Sheng, take them and run! Quickly!!"
At this point, there's no time to worry about anything else; we just need to get as many people as possible away.
But as soon as Qiu Sheng opened the Body Illumination, she immediately broke into a smile, "Looks like we don't need to."
With all her attention focused outside, Gong Xue didn't notice that the massive black hole was rapidly shrinking, as if it were being absorbed by something.
"The son-in-law succeeded!"
With their minds in sync, Gong Xue was absolutely certain, and she almost wanted to laugh wildly to the heavens!
The black hole dissipated, leaving only a figure standing in the distance.
Its body was so dark that it became nothingness, clearly composed of a black hole, yet Lu Li's shadow could still be seen in its posture and facial features.
Just then, the entire spiritual realm suddenly trembled violently, as a powerful force pulled it out of the black hole.
This was Primal's doing; he wanted to drag Lu Li over.
With a casual wave of his hand, Lu Li deflected the entangling force.
The ripples condensed into the image of a luminous woman, her voice as melodious as a clear spring.
[Finally, a fun-loving soul has appeared!]
"I'll come find you. Now, get out of here."
Lu Li replied calmly, then swept his gaze across the area and erased the Primal power.
It's clear that both sides are at the same level, and Lu Li has indeed successfully broken through!
The women were immediately overjoyed, especially when they saw the ethereal aura around Lu Li gradually recede and return to its normal form, clearly indicating that he had further adapted to the power.
The innocent-minded Xiao Yu and Yue Ru were about to rush over and hug Lu Li celebration.
But Xing Ru suddenly grabbed her sister, and Qiu Sheng also pulled Xiao Yu along.
"Wait a minute, something's wrong with Lu Li."
Lu Li stood still, emanating a terrifying aura that made all the women feel a chill run down their spines.
Being husband and wife as one—this feeling is so unfamiliar.
Looking into Lu Li's eyes again, they were cold and lifeless... no, they should be described as "indifferent."
Indifference and disregard, like heaven and earth regarding all things as straw dogs.
"The Supreme Forgetfulness!"
Gong Xue's face was extremely pale. She had taken every precaution she could, but this was the last thing she had expected!
Qiu Sheng said with a somber expression, "This is the price of the Supreme Being... Let's go take a look first."
Without her saying a word, Xiao Cha, Wan Qing, and the others had already rushed towards Lu Li.
