Void annihilation and astonishment

A voyage of seventeen standard days seemed utterly monotonous in the desolate void of space.

Within the Divine Kingdom, Lin Yi's Main Body and his clone were immersed in studying the <Void Annihilation Codex> and practicing the "Space-Time Life-Death Void-Annihilation Point," making the most of every second to familiarize themselves with the profound mysteries of the Sovereign Secret Canon.

When the spaceship reached the edge of the selected dark nebula region, Xuanji's notification pulled Lin Yi's attention back from his cultivation.

"Master, we have arrived at the outer edge of the target Dark Nebula Shadow Belt. Preliminary detection indicates an abnormal internal energy spectrum, the presence of a strong gravitational lensing effect source, and significant fluctuations in the laws of darkness have been detected."

The spaceship slowed down, like a ghost blending into the darkness of the background, and slowly glided into the vast nebula composed of thin gas, dust, and ice crystals.

Starlight was severely obscured here, and the field of vision was a hazy darkness, with only the faint probe waves from the spacecraft itself and the occasional streaks of light brought by passing high-energy particle streams.

After venturing into the nebula for about half a day's light distance, the sight ahead made Lin Yi's eyes light up slightly.

That was an extremely rare cosmic spectacle.

At the Core Zone of the dark nebula lies a relatively empty cavity with a diameter of several million kilometers.

In the center of the cavity, dozens of dark purple crystals of varying sizes and irregular shapes floated.

These crystals, as if possessing life, slowly revolve around an invisible gravitational source at the center of the cavity. Their surfaces flow with a dark luster that seems capable of swallowing all light, and bursts of the aura of the laws of darkness emanate from them, constantly extinguishing their faint glow upon contact with the surrounding sparse nebulous matter.

Lin Yi's heart stirred, and then an invisible wave spread out from between his eyebrows, sweeping over the dark purple crystals.

A moment later, the information from the Origin Universe Tower imprint appeared directly in his consciousness.

[Shadow Dark Core (Unprocessed)]

[Implication of the Law: The Law of Darkness (Pure)]

[Preliminary Value Assessment: Approximately 2 million Origin Universe Tower Points (total amount)]

"2 million Points."

A glint of light flashed in Lin Yi's eyes.

Indeed, high risk comes with high reward.

Moreover, this is just a natural output from a relatively calm area within the 45th floor.

The process of collecting these Shadow Dark Core went smoothly, without encountering any guardian beasts or traps.

Clearly, in such a vast and mysterious space, not every resource point is fraught with danger; luck and meticulous exploration are equally important.

After storing all the Shadow Dark Core in a specially made storage box, Lin Yi didn't linger. Based on the new environmental scan data, Xuanji replanned the flight path, and the spaceship restarted, like a cautious hunter, continuing its stealthy journey into the deeper part of the dark nebula where the energy reactions were more complex.

Time flew by amidst cultivation, exploration, and the occasional battles with small-scale interstellar beasts.

Three hundred standard years pass in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Lin Yi discovered six valuable resource sites.

Three of these are law-encapsulated deposits resembling "Shadow Dark Core," two are rare cosmic metal deposits, and one is a "turbulent crystal" containing unique spacetime patterns.

On this day, the Fearless Avatar was piloting the spaceship, routinely scanning an area filled with pale golden Star Dust.

Suddenly, Xuanji's voice rang out in the control room, carrying a rare fluctuation:

"Master, received Pan-Spirit Alliance standard wide-area signal. Signal source encryption level: High. Summary: I am Liu Na of the Spirit Race. I have discovered the high-value cosmic wonder ' Luminous Lake.' Preliminary detection estimates the value of its core treasure to exceed 50 million points Points the Origin Universe Tower. However, the wonder is guarded by a massive swarm of interstellar beasts called ' Light-Devouring Ray,' and it is speculated that Leader level individual exists within them. Due to insufficient strength to deal with it alone, I am now publicly summoning Pan-Spirit Alliance allies in the vicinity to jointly eliminate it and share the spoils."

Lin Yi narrowed his eyes slightly.

Core treasures with over 50 million Points may also contain other supplementary resources.

This is far more valuable than any single resource point he discovered on his own.

There are certainly risks; public signals may attract unnecessary attention, and joint operations may lead to disputes over distribution, but the benefits are equally tempting.

"Xuanji, retrieve the known data on Liu Na and the Light-Devouring Ray Clan."

Lin Yi gave the order.

"Yes, Master. Liu Na, Spirit Race, High God Level, Light-Devouring Ray Database Comparison: A common predatory beast in the Star Sea, it prefers to live in groups, inhabits high-light or special radiation environments, feeds on light energy and rare minerals, has a hard shell, possesses a certain degree of light-based laws and refraction abilities, and poses a great threat when in groups. Leader level individuals usually possess the strength of a High God."

Lin Yi pondered for a moment.

While solo exploration during this period is safe, there is always a limit to its efficiency. Appropriate collaboration, especially when facing tough challenges that require cooperation, is an important way to efficiently earn Points.

"A response signal indicating an intention to participate in the joint effort."

Lin Yi made a decision.

"Signal received. Confirmation and specific assembly coordinates received." Xuanji responded quickly.

Lin Yi nodded, and the spaceship adjusted its course, heading at full speed towards the rendezvous point.

Approximately six standard hours later, the spacecraft arrived in a relatively empty interstellar space.

In the distance, two spaceships with very different styles were already hovering silently.

The ship is pure white, with elegant and smooth lines, and faint holy light patterns flowing on its surface, which is typical of the Holy Radiance Race style.

The other ship resembled a giant, crystalline leaf, showcasing the unique beauty of the Spirit Race's fusion of life and crystal.

As Lin Yi's unassuming "Shadow Shuttle" approached, the two opposing spaceships clearly also conducted a probe.

Soon, a gentle male voice from the Holy Radiance Race and a clear, melodious female voice from the Spirit Race came simultaneously through the public channel, using the common language of the Pan-Spirit Alliance:

Please identify yourself.

Lin Yi calmly replied, "Human Race, Lin Yi."

His decision to use his real identity was based on multiple considerations.

Changing one's appearance is mainly to prevent targeted hunting by the Abyss Race and the Devouring Race. Within the Pan-Spirit Alliance, keeping one's identity secret is not very important; on the contrary, it may arouse suspicion among collaborators by hiding one's identity.

More importantly, within the Pan-Spirit Alliance, the name "Lin Yi" represents not only a genius, but also potential and a certain degree of "influence."

Just like in the Sacred Tree Secret Realm, Yaxi chose to give him her chance to save her life at the last moment, in order to forge a good relationship. Revealing her identity is equivalent to an invisible guarantee and deterrence.

A wise and capable person, when it comes to the distribution of high-value treasures, will consider long-term interests and personal relationships more than easily offending this widely regarded "future giant" for a one-time gain.

This provides greater security and facilitates cooperation than an identity of unknown origin.

Sure enough, as he announced his name, a gasp of surprise came from the public channel.

"Lin Yi? Is that Lin Yi from the Star Source Society?" The Holy Radiance Race deity was clearly somewhat surprised.

"Lin Yi of the Human Race?" The voice of the Spirit Race Goddess was relatively restrained, but the shock was still palpable. "I didn't expect to meet you here. According to previous information, shouldn't you be..."

Lin Yi answered directly, his tone calm, "I've had some fortuitous encounters, and my strength has improved slightly."

"Lin Yi truly lives up to his reputation," the Holy Radiance Race deity remarked, then his tone warmed, "I am Hui Lie of the Holy Radiance Race."

"Spirit Race, Liu Na." The Spirit Race goddess Ling Ye introduced herself again solemnly, her voice cool but not impolite, "I have long admired Lin Yi's name; it is an honor to meet you today."

"You two are too kind," Lin Yi replied. "What are the specific details of the situation?"

Hui Lie continued, "I also received the message and arrived here half a standard year before you. Our initial remote detection revealed that a Seven-Colored Phantom Light Tree grows on the island of Luminous Lake. Its condensed Phantom Light Fruit and the tree itself are extremely valuable. However, more than three thousand Light-Devouring Ray inhabit the airspace and surrounding areas of the lake, including twenty ordinary gods, three powerful gods, and a leader whose strength is estimated to be at the high god level. Liu Na and I alone cannot handle it, so we have been sending joint signals and waiting for other passing allies."

Liu Na added, "We have conducted a preliminary survey of the terrain. The lake is located in a gravitational disturbance zone, and its spatial structure is relatively fragile. Large-scale energy impacts require caution. The Light-Devouring Ray swarm is very vigilant and has a habit of taking turns patrolling. It would be best to develop a tactic to attract and weaken them in batches, and then concentrate our forces to defeat the leader."

Lin Yi listened silently, combining the more detailed scan data simultaneously generated by Xuanji with his own quick assessment.

This configuration indeed requires at least three high-ranking deities to work together, and they must coordinate well.

"I agree to a joint operation to wipe them out," Lin Yi stated. "What are your proposals regarding the distribution of the spoils?"

Liu Na said, "According to the conventions of joint explorations by the Pan-Spirit Alliance, rewards are usually distributed according to the level of contribution. Given the strength of the three of us," she paused slightly, considered for a moment, and continued, "I propose that after the successful clearing, the core treasure, the Seven-Colored Phantom Light Tree, and its main product, the Phantom Light Fruit, will be divided equally among the three of us. As for any other associated resources that may exist in the lake, whoever collects them keeps them. What do you think?"

This suggestion was fair, Lin Yi had no objection. "Okay."

"Then, let's discuss the tactics in detail," Liu Na said.

After discussing for a while, the three of them finally devised a tactical plan: Liu Na would use her life force and the wood element law to set up a hidden trapping array; Hui Lie would use the light element law to attract, purify, and weaken enemies over a large area; and Lin Yi would use his spacetime mobility to launch a key surprise attack and target the leader for decapitation.

After the discussion, Liu Na and Hui Lie cautiously approached the target area, while Lin Yi followed silently behind them.

As the distance closes, even across the vast void, one can see the magnificence and danger of that spectacle.

It is a "lake" with a diameter of hundreds of thousands of kilometers, but its water is not a liquid. Instead, it is a mixture of various soft radiant lights and special energy flows that are so dense that they are almost liquid, presenting a dreamlike seven-color gradient as it flows slowly.

Above the lake, numerous manta rays, resembling manta rays but covered with smooth carapaces and Light-Devouring Ray extending from their edges, were seen swimming and darting about. They moved through the flowing light as if they were one with it, and their sheer number was enough to make one's scalp tingle.

In the center of the lake, on a small island, a strange tree, its entire body crystal clear and its branches and leaves flowing with seven-colored light, shines brightly.

Several fruits, resembling colorful glass, can be vaguely seen on the tree crown; these are the "Phantom Light Fruit."

A glint flashed in Lin Yi's silver-gray eyes as he gestured with his hands in front of him, fine silver runes flowing from his fingertips. Following the method of the Void Annihilation Condensation Art, he instantly condensed an invisible "Spatial Void Annihilation Point."

This Void-Annihilation Point, as tiny as a speck of dust, precisely anchored the spatial coordinates in front of him.

At the same time, he vanished instantly, as if he had been completely absorbed by this Void-Annihilation Point.

This is precisely the advanced concealment method under the Void Annihilation Codex system. Rather than "hiding," it is more accurate to say that one temporarily "entrusts" oneself to a newly formed and stable spatial structural singularity.

Upon seeing Lin Yi's figure disappear, Liu Na and Hui Lie instinctively began to investigate.

However, there was nothing there.

The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the seriousness in each other's eyes.

However, the two also knew that now was not the time to investigate Lin Yi's strength. Liu Na stepped forward and scattered countless imperceptible green light spots, which silently merged into the lake water and void below, beginning to weave a huge network of life confinement and confusion.

Hui Lie shone brightly, like a lighthouse in the darkness, instantly attracting the attention of a large number of Light-Devouring Ray.

He brandished his sword, scattering showers of light that weakened the charging horde of beasts.

The battle erupted instantly.

The Light-Devouring Ray emitted a silent spiritual shriek, transforming into a dazzling yet dangerous surge of light that rushed towards Hui Lie.

Liu Na activated her attack at the opportune moment, and countless resilient energy vines and deceptive light and shadows emerged from the void, hindering and dividing the beast horde.

Just as the battlefield was at a stalemate, the leader of the Light-Devouring Ray, which had been lurking near the island in the middle of the lake and was exceptionally large with complex golden patterns on its carapace, let out a sharp screech, and a circle of pale golden light rippled around its body.

The speed and shell brightness of the Light-Devouring Ray within range increased significantly. It itself, accompanied by several powerful guards, transformed into a golden light and rushed straight towards Hui Lie, who seemed to be under the greatest pressure.

Just as the leader of the Light-Devouring Ray completely focused its attention on Hui Lie...

Lin Yi's figure seemed to "grow" out of space, appearing directly beside the leader of the Light-Devouring Ray.

This is precisely the essence of the initial application of the Void Annihilation Step: directly using the newly condensed Void-Annihilation Point as the coordinate point to complete a "fixed-point emergence" without any warning.

This is more covert than conventional spatial teleportation because it doesn't pass through space, but rather appears directly from a point in space.

Lin Yi's appearance and attack occurred almost simultaneously.

He pointed his sword-like fingers, his hands covered in dragon scales, at the space in front of the Light-Devouring Ray leader.

"Condense!"

He used an advanced technique of Void Annihilation Condensation Art to forcibly condense a brand-new "Spatial Void Annihilation Point" in that location in an instant.

"Destruction!"

Immediately afterwards, the technique of Void Annihilation Destruction was activated.

This Void-Annihilation Point was instantly detonated!

There was no deafening roar, only a chilling hum emanating from the space enveloped by the leader's golden aura.

Centered on the Void-Annihilation Point that was detonated, a "miniature annihilation field" with chaotic colors and spatial cracks flowing along its edges suddenly formed.

This annihilation field is not an explosion, but rather a brief collapse and return to nothingness of the spatial structure itself under the annihilating force of the Void-Annihilation Point.

The leader of the Light-Devouring Ray charged forward with great force, crashing headlong into the annihilation field that suddenly appeared in front of it.

Laugh!

The light field on the leader's body instantly collapsed, and the solid carapace, under the alternating erosion of the annihilation field's spatial disorder and the power of life and death, developed cracks that looked as if it had been "eaten away" from the inside by an invisible force.

Its guards fared even worse; swept by the edge of the annihilation field, their carapaces cracked under the strain, and they died instantly.

Lin Yi's figure flickered like a ghost, and with the help of the Void Annihilation Step, he emerged again from another Void-Annihilation Point coordinate, appearing directly above the leader.

At the same time, the Sky-Evasion Shuttle instantly appeared and coalesced around him, forming a silver battle spear.

Lin Yi gripped the battle spear formed from the Sky-Evasion Shuttle with one hand, its tip pointing directly at the leader of the Light-Devouring Ray below.

"Condense!"

All his will and immense divine power were poured into the extreme Sharpness of the tip of the Sky-Evasion Shuttle Spear, instantly condensing an extremely tiny "Spatial Void Annihilation Point" at the spear tip.

This Void-Annihilation Point was not outside, but was firmly imprisoned and loaded onto the tip of the Sky-Evasion Shuttle.

This is more difficult than condensing Void-Annihilation Point in the void, requiring more precise control over spatial structure and one's own power, but the power is also more concentrated, perfectly combined with the weapon's Sharpness.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Yi's wrist twitched slightly, and the war spear transformed into a silver streak that was difficult to detect with the naked eye, piercing out silently.

This thrust, seemingly simple and direct, incorporates the attack concepts of "breaking through the surface" and "annihilating the structure" from the Void Annihilation Codex, and is further amplified by the "sufficiently Sharpness" and "highly compatible with Space Rule" characteristics of the Sky -Sky-Evasion Shuttle itself.

The moment the spear tip touched the densest crack in the leader's carapace, the "Spatial Void Annihilation Point" loaded on the spear tip was detonated. However, the explosive force did not spread but was forcibly restrained towards the inside of the carapace along with the unparalleled Sharpness and direction of the Sky-Evasion Shuttle.

At the junction of the leader's pale golden, sturdy head and neck armor, a tiny hole appeared with edges displaying a chaotic hue.

All material structures and spatial stability around the hole were instantly and completely destroyed.

The destructive force spread rapidly inward along the hole.

"Boo"

A soft, yet chilling thud.

The leader's massive body shuddered violently, and all life force was instantly wiped out by the annihilating power that had invaded through that tiny wound.

Before it could even let out a final screech, its massive body stiffened completely, losing all its strength, and drifted slowly forward with inertia.

This is precisely the transformative effect produced by combining advanced secret techniques with top-tier weapons.

Lin Yi sheathed his gun, Sky-Evasion Shuttle silently disintegrated, transforming back into a stream of light that disappeared into his body.

His figure blurred again as he used the Void Annihilation Step to retreat towards the predetermined escape coordinates, his aura becoming obscure and difficult to discern once more.

Throughout the process, he made full use of the core techniques in the manual, such as instantaneous freezing point, Void Annihilation Step, and Void Annihilation Destruction, perfectly integrating attack and movement into the creation and application of Void-Annihilation Point. From freezing point concealment to fixed point emergence, to destruction attack, and finally freezing point detachment, he completed the entire process in one go, demonstrating efficient, mysterious, and deadly combat power.

With the death of their leader, the surrounding swarm of Light-Devouring Ray was thrown into chaos. Their originally orderly attack formation became chaotic and they suffered heavy casualties under Liu Na's trapping formation and Hui Lie's purifying rain of light, and began to scatter and flee.

The battle quickly came to an end, and the Light-Devouring Ray swarm, now leaderless, was swiftly wiped out by the combined efforts of the three high gods.

The void gradually returned to calm, leaving only the slowly flowing seven-colored lake water below and the even more dazzling Seven-Colored Phantom Light Tree on the island in the middle of the lake.

Hui Lie and Liu Na did not rush down to collect the treasures, but instead turned their gazes to Lin Yi, who had stopped and was now calm.

They knew Lin Yi was exceptionally talented, and that his ability to reach the 45th floor meant he was already at the level of a high-level deity. However, the fierce destructive power Lin Yi displayed when he made his move just now still deeply shocked them.

This is absolutely the pinnacle of power among high-ranking deities!

Liu Na and Hui Lie quickly exchanged a glance, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.

In her opinion, although Lin Yi was able to enter the 45th floor, he probably only barely reached the threshold. After all, how long had Lin Yi been cultivating? It was highly likely that he was able to enter the 45th floor because the Human Race had given him a lot of treasures to support him.

Therefore, Liu Na's initial suggestion to divide the spoils equally among the three was actually more about establishing a good relationship with Lin Yi in advance.

But now it seems that's not the case at all.

Lin Yi's strength was clearly far greater than she and Hui Lie had anticipated!

In this way, the initial evaluation by the three people changed from them taking care of Lin Yi Lin Yi doing him a favor to them taking advantage of Lin Yi!

Hui Lie and Liu Na exchanged a silent glance, seemingly reaching some kind of consensus.

The two then concealed their presence and flew to Lin Yi's vicinity.

Hui Lie exclaimed in admiration, "Lord Lin Yi, your skills just now were truly awe-inspiring."

"I've only grasped it slightly," Lin Yi replied calmly, without going into detail about the existence of the <Void Annihilation Codex>.

A hint of seriousness appeared on Liu Na's usually cold face. She spoke directly, "Lin Yi, your contribution in the battle just now far exceeded expectations. The previous suggestion of dividing the core treasure equally among the three of us was based on a rough assessment of each other's strength. Now it seems that this is not appropriate. I suggest that you take 40% of the spoils, and Hui Lie and I will each take 30%."

Hui Lie nodded in agreement. "That's right. If you hadn't quickly killed the leader, the battle would have dragged on, increasing the variables and causing us to suffer greater losses, and it might even have led to other troubles. Redistributing the spoils according to contribution is more reasonable."

The change in the attitudes of these two deities was clear and obvious.

In Xinghai, strength earns respect and, in turn, the right to a share of the profits.

Lin Yi's demonstrated combat prowess has earned their recognition, even prompting them to proactively adjust the allocation plan. This is both a sign of respect for the strong and a gesture of goodwill.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi smiled and shook his head, "Thank you both for your kind offer. However, since we've already agreed to split it equally, let's stick to that. We can adjust it according to the actual situation next time we cooperate."

He refused decisively, but his tone was calm, without a trace of affectation or pretense of superiority.

In Lin Yi's view, this cooperation was based on a prior agreement, and it was not inappropriate for the other party to propose an equal division of the spoils without knowing his true combat strength.

The change was made at the last minute because he demonstrated his abilities, which, although well-intentioned, could complicate a simple collaboration.

He values establishing a stable and trustworthy foundation for cooperation.

Upon hearing this, Hui Lie and Liu Na's eyes flashed with surprise, and then they nodded secretly.

To remain unmoved by adjustments that are clearly in one's own interest is truly remarkable.

"Since you insist, we thank you," Liu Na said with a smile. "Your magnanimity is truly admirable."

"Then let's go collect the treasures first." Hui Lie laughed along, his impression of Lin Yi even better.

The three said no more and flew together toward the island in the middle of the lake.

Upon closer inspection, one can better feel the powerful interplay of the laws of light and Life Law emanating from the "Seven-Colored Phantom Light Tree." The three "Phantom Light Fruit" on the tree crown are like the finest glass art pieces, with swirling halos within them, as if containing a miniature universe of light.

There are also some light-attribute crystals and special mosses growing under the tree, which are quite valuable.

As agreed, the three people divided the three Phantom Light Fruit equally, and Lin Yi took one.

The tree trunk itself was the most valuable part, but it couldn't be divided. After a brief discussion, it was decided that the Spirit Race 'Liu Na would keep it, and in return, she would give Lin Yi and Hui Lie other treasures of equal value as compensation.

As for the remaining associated resources, as mentioned before, whoever collects them owns them.

The allocation process went smoothly, and all three parties were quite satisfied.

The resources were collected quickly.

"Lin Yi, please wait a moment."

Hui Lie's voice carried a hint of negotiation, "Our cooperation just now was truly enjoyable. Now, this 45th level of the secret realm is vast and boundless, fraught with danger, and with the Abyss Race and the Devouring Race eyeing us covetously, could we consider joining forces to continue our exploration?"

Liu Na's clear voice followed, adding, "Indeed. The three of us working together are enough to challenge high-value dangerous places or guardian beasts that are difficult for one or two people to handle alone. Hui Lie and I have discussed this, and given your convenience with the spacetime laws and the combat power you just displayed, if we cooperate, considering the long-term nature of the cooperation and the difference in our contributions, we can adjust the proportions. You will take 45%, and Hui Lie and I will each take 27.5%. This way, we can both reflect your core role and protect our basic interests."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi pondered for a moment.

Joint operations have both advantages and disadvantages.

The downside is that when you discover ordinary resources, the rewards are shared, making it less rewarding than exploring alone.

However, the advantages are also obvious: as Hui Lie and Liu Na said, the three of them working together can take on those "hard bones" that one or even two people cannot crack, and the probability and efficiency of obtaining core treasures will be greatly improved.

Moreover, once you encounter a lone enemy or a small group, you are more likely to surround and kill them. Hunting down powerful enemy figures is clearly one of the most profitable and direct ways to survive in the secret realm, with both high risks and high rewards.

More importantly, this secret realm is by no means a benevolent place.

In the early stages, lone wolves may be able to avoid risks and efficiently collect scattered resources by relying on stealth and mobility.

However, as time goes by, the powerful figures from all sides gradually become familiar with the environment and begin to band together, possibly even forming large teams based on race or power.

At that time, once a lone individual is locked onto by the superior forces of the opposing faction, escape will be extremely difficult.

Forming a lean and trustworthy team is a wise choice for dealing with the complex situation in the later stages, and it can be said to be an inevitable trend.

Hui Lie and Liu Na are both quite strong, and their character has been initially demonstrated in their cooperation just now.

They proactively adjusted the allocation ratio to demonstrate their sincerity, indicating a good foundation for cooperation.

"Yes." After weighing the pros and cons, Lin Yi gave an affirmative answer. "Joint action is indeed more conducive to dealing with subsequent challenges. The allocation ratio will be as you two have stated."

"That's great!" Hui Lie's voice was filled with joy.

"Then it'll be a pleasure working together." Liu Na smiled as well.

The three then discussed the details of the joint operation, including command and coordination, communication rules, and emergency response plans.

To facilitate operations and coordinated reconnaissance, they decided to travel together on Liu Na's Eldar Spirit Race, which resembled a crystalline leaf.

This spacecraft not only has a more spacious and comfortable interior, but its detection system also has a significantly better range and accuracy than Lin Yi's "Shadow Shuttle" and Hui Lie's Holy Radiance Race spacecraft, making it more advantageous for finding high-value targets.

Lin Yi then put away the "Shadow Shuttle" and entered Liu Na's spaceship with Hui Lie.

For the next five hundred standard years, the three-person team, based on Liu Na's spaceship, conducted efficient and cautious exploration and hunting in the 45th level of the secret realm.

With their superior overall strength and detection capabilities, they successfully swept through three medium-sized resource points guarded by powerful guardian beasts, acquiring numerous treasures and also dealing with several waves of encountering alien beasts from the Star Sea.

On this day, the three were resting in the common area of the spaceship, each processing their recent findings or conducting simple law deductions.

Suddenly, Liu Na's Intelligent Life, a miniature crystal tree emitting a soft green light, shattered the tranquility of the cabin:

"Master, we have received a distress signal from the Pan-Spirit Alliance. The signal is in repeat broadcast mode. Do you wish to receive the message and establish contact?"
