The Road of Exploration

Lu Yan'an's forward-flying figure paused slightly, then he transformed into a beam of light, dodging the golden lightning attack!

But at that moment, countless golden lightning bolts suddenly shot towards Lu Yan'an's body from the side, and the direction of the attack was exactly in Lu Yan'an's blind spot.

A dense barrage of golden lightning bolts descended from this tricky angle. No matter where Lu Yan'an dodged, he would inevitably be struck by some of the lightning unless he could unleash an extremely fast speed to escape this area. His frantically pounding senses were also warning him of the impending danger!

But Lu Yan'an remained completely calm. A sudden ripple of time appeared around his body. The next moment, the golden lightning bolts rushing towards him seemed to be completely frozen in place! No matter how fast these golden lightning bolts were, as long as they approached within ten meters of Lu Yan'an, they were completely frozen in mid-air.

"Right here."

Lu Yan'an located the source of the golden lightning, so he stopped the attack that was shooting towards him while moving closer to the source.

A moment later, he saw a spherical crystal about three kilometers in diameter, from which countless golden lightning bolts were reflected.

"I wonder what this thing is? And it can even perform automatic attacks?" Lu Yan'an scanned the area with his divine sense, and he was quite certain that there was no energy reaction within a 100,000-meter radius except for this circular crystal. Moreover, the spaceship's detectors did not provide any feedback on this thing either.

As Lu Yan'an approached the round crystal, he pondered. The power of the golden lightning was not bad. Although he used the power of the Time Law to freeze all these attacks, if he were just an ordinary Domain Lord, he would not be able to withstand even a little damage. Even a World Lord Level would be annihilated and killed after only a few golden lightning bolts!

It's important to understand that this level of power is already quite formidable. Even D9-grade Laser Gun, capable of instantly killing a ninth-tier Domain Lord, only possesses roughly this level of power, and that thing has a limited number of uses! After nine uses, it becomes nothing but scrap metal. But the golden lightning reflected from this circular crystal has no such limitation! The sheer density and intensity of this attack alone make it comparable in value to E9-grade Laser Gun.

As Lu Yan'an drew closer and closer to the spherical crystal, it suddenly stopped emitting golden lightning. Just when Lu Yan'an thought it had given up, another incredibly terrifying bolt of golden lightning erupted from the spherical crystal. Good heavens, it hadn't given up after all; it was just gathering its strength for a final strike!

This bolt of lightning was three kilometers high and wide, cylindrical in shape, and the same size as a spherical crystal.

Wherever the lightning passed, everything was annihilated. Nothing could stop its advance for even a second. Even the surrounding mist was completely torn apart, forming isolated islands!

"Holy crap!"

Lu Yan'an's expression changed drastically as he looked at the thick, terrifying bolt of lightning. He instinctively activated the Law of Time! With Lu Yan'an's current ability to manipulate time, he could only stop the lightning for a moment, but Lu Yan'an moment bought him the opportunity to escape.

"Stop!"

His speed exploded in an instant, and with the support of the Law of Light and Time Law, he barely managed to escape the attack range of the golden lightning!

The golden lightning bolt struck out directly, hitting a massive meteorite and annihilating it completely, leaving not a trace of ash behind.

"What a terrifying attack."

Lu Yan'an was secretly startled.

With his strength, destroying a meteorite nearly 100 kilometers in diameter would be no problem for him, but to annihilate it into nothingness, leaving not a trace, is beyond his capabilities.

If he were hit by this attack, he would probably be instantly engulfed and vaporized by the enormous energy, and then he would have to restart!

After the massive golden lightning bolt struck, the crystal went limp, no longer emitting any light, and even its luster began to dim. After a while, the crystal had shrunk to the size of a palm, and its surface was covered with countless cracks.

Under Lu Yan'an's wary gaze, the strange round crystal slowly shattered and turned into dust.

"It's broken?" He was somewhat bewildered. The location where this round crystal appeared was extremely subtle, even deliberate! It was placed behind a Mission Crystal, like a simple mechanism, with far too many human factors involved! Even the round crystal that emitted golden lightning shattered after completing its charging. All of this pointed to intelligent life.

"Could there be native inhabitants in this Mizong Galaxy?" Lu Yan'an pondered this question after storing the Mission Crystal in his Space Ring, but he couldn't find any clues. "Forget it, thinking too much won't do any good. I should focus on the Mission Crystal. If there really are any natives, I'm sure I'll be able to find them!"

Lu Yan'an shook his head, clearing his mind of all sorts of thoughts, and then continued on his exploration.

As time passed, Lu Yan'an found some crystals and several treasures through this powerful detector.

The combined value of these treasures is several million Hunyuan Unit.

However, this was nothing more than a bonus for Lu Yan'an! His goal wasn't just these local specialties; the mission objective was what he truly desired!

"Let's keep exploring, whatever we find will do. First, we need to collect all 39 Mission Crystal, then we'll head towards the central section of this Mizong Galaxy. Judging by the current situation, the clues to the Divine Envoy messenger should be deep within this Mizong Galaxy!"

He was skeptical about finding anything of significant value here. If there were truly good items, why would Lu Yan'an and his group of underlings have a chance? The Virtual Universe Company would definitely take them all. He refused to believe that the high-ranking experts of the Virtual Universe Company hadn't explored the Mizong Galaxy. After all, every secret realm suitable for cultivation missions had been thoroughly explored by the Virtual Universe Company. This was true for the Xueluo World, the Demon Mountain, and even the Purgatory Abyss!

One year.

Three years.

Five years.

In his sixth year in the Mizong Galaxy, Lu Yan'an, relying on advanced detectors, found all 39 Mission Crystal and even some valuable treasures.

"Now that mission one is complete, let's focus on exploring the depths of this Mizong Galaxy!"

In the past, to ensure the safety of his search missions, Lu Yan'an never dared to venture into the depths of the Mizong Galaxy. Now, having collected all the Mission Crystal and submitted the first mission acceptance report, he finally dared to venture boldly into the depths of the Mizong Galaxy!

"Now, let me uncover the secrets deeper within this Mizong Galaxy!" A burning flame flickered in Lu Yan'an's eyes, a testament to his passion for exploration! "The system has already given such clear hints; if I were to stagnate due to my own shortcomings, that would be disrespectful to this Highest Points Mission!"

Indeed, in the original story, City Lord Luo wandered in the Mizong Galaxy for decades but still couldn't uncover its greatest secret! Yet this Highest Points Mission directly revealed the greatest secret of the Mizong Galaxy to him, and he also had Clone. If he didn't dare to try under these circumstances, then it's no wonder he's weak!

With the help of advanced detectors, Lu Yan'an's first search mission proceeded incredibly smoothly, while largely avoiding certain terrain-related dangers. This alone made him far superior to the City Lord Luo in the original story. In the original novel, the City Lord Luo's adventures in the Mizong Galaxy relied entirely on his Mosha Clan Clone as cannon fodder to scout ahead. While this was certainly safe, it was far too inefficient!

With the detector clearing the way, everything along the way was scanned clearly! There was absolutely no danger. Even though the search range was suppressed by more than a thousand times by the special environment within the Mizong Galaxy, the high-end detector could still provide a considerable detection range, which was something that City Lord Luo could not match at all.

"Now, let's go!" Lu Yan'an piloted the spaceship, beginning its journey into the depths of the Mizong Galaxy...
