146: Chapter 146 First Entry into the Sea of Stars
Unknown dimension, the edge of the endless Star Sea.
"Buzzing—"
There was no sound, for this was an absolute vacuum.
When that ninety-thousand-zhang long [Nine Dragon Destruction Class · star destroyer], forged from the entire ruins of the Thirty-Three Heavens, dragged its deep blue warp tail flames and brutally smashed through the Universe Barrier, charging into this boundless Star Sea...
The entire interior of the warship fell into a suffocating silence.
"Warning! External hull armor damage at 1%... 2%..."
On the holographic screen, piercing red lights flashed frantically.
Inside the warship's main control room, the hundred thousand Immortal Slaying Dragon Cavalry who had been hot-blooded just moments ago were now all pale-faced, gripping the fixed objects around them tightly.
The thirty-six Nascent Soul Initial Stage Old Ancestors were forced so low by an invisible high-dimensional pressure that they couldn't even straighten their backs.
"This... this is the Star Sea?"
Through the massive bow glass porthole, the Chen Family Old Ancestor looked at the bizarre, deep Universe outside—where there was no distinction between up, down, left, or right, and which was filled with distorted nebulae and lethal radiation—his eyes full of shock and a trace of instinctive fear.
In their original understanding, the Thirty-Three Heavens was already the end of the sky.
But now, that massive Immortal Realm was merely a dim "glass ball" wrapped in some invisible barrier within the cosmic vacuum behind them.
"My Lord, the high-dimensional Laws of the Star Sea are penetrating the warship's Formation patterns! The soldiers' True Essence is draining extremely fast, and the scales of the Purple-Gold Immortal Demon Dragon are showing signs of frost cracking!"
Su Qingyu gritted her silver teeth, struggling to maintain the operation of the bridge's Formation Plate.
Having just entered the Star Sea, the real enemy had yet to appear, but the harsh environment of the Universe itself had already given this group of arrogant soldiers and fierce generals from the Lower Realm an extremely cruel lesson in dimensional reduction strikes.
"What are you panicking for?"
On the captain's chair.
Lin Que sat regally, his large red cloak fluttering slightly in the breeze of the warship's life support System.
His heterochromatic eyes quietly watched the Star Sea outside the window; deep within them was no fear, only a bottomless greed and fanaticism.
"You were once fish splashing in a fish tank, and now you've jumped into the ocean; it's normal for the water pressure to increase."
Lin Que slowly closed his eyes. "Relax your minds. Don't use the Cultivation Techniques of the Lower Realm to resist; try to assimilate with it."
At the same time, the Blood Scripture within Lin Que's body was like an awakening primordial giant god, erupting with an unprecedented roar under the stimulation of this high-dimensional Star Sea!
His thirty-million-jin Physical Body of the Dark Gold Demon God Body had every pore greedily opening and closing.
The lethal cosmic rays and high-dimensional free energy outside, which were enough to instantly penetrate a Soul Transformation Stage Physical Body, were all dominantly swept into Lin Que's body by the Blood Scripture the moment they touched his skin!
Rumble!
Inside Lin Que's Dantian, that hundred-thousand-mile [Starry Sky inner heaven and earth], after absorbing this pure Star Sea energy, finally began a transformation in the truest sense.
Above the firmament of the inner heaven and earth, those illusory stars originally condensed from the spiritual energy of immortal veins began to absorb cosmic dust, rapidly becoming solid and heavy!
His Early Stage cultivation of the [Void Return Star Domain Realm], which he had just stepped into, was being consolidated and settled at an extremely terrifying speed under the wash of this high-dimensional power.
Not rushing to break through to the Middle Stage, Lin Que was frantically squeezing the limits of his Physical Body, allowing this body to completely adapt to the Laws of the cosmic vacuum.
Just as the warship glided steadily through the Star Sea and the army began to gradually adapt to this high-dimensional pressure.
"Beep! Detected ultra-high-energy spatial fluctuations 100,000 kilometers ahead!"
The alarm of the warship's System suddenly became extremely sharp.
At the far end of the holographic screen, within an originally calm asteroid belt, a dense array of cold, deep-blue mechanical lights suddenly lit up.
It was a massive metal fortress comparable in size to a moon!
Around the fortress circled thousands of strangely shaped interstellar warships, which had no sails and were entirely powered by energy. At the highest point of the fortress, a massive high-dimensional beacon, similar to some kind of radar array, flickered.
"Warning! The warship has been locked on!"
"Receiving high-dimensional frequency broadcast—"
In the warship's main control console, the high-dimensional mechanical voice deciphered by the System rang out coldly:
"This is the Star Sea United Chamber of Commerce, No. 33 Pasture Peripheral Recycling Station."
"Warning to the unknown assembled vessel ahead: your physical characteristics identify you as escaped carbon-based livestock from the pasture."
"Immediately disarm,Turn off the engine.This site will be launched.【Singularity Gravity Capture Network】Recycling.Rebels,Perform atomic-level erasure."
No emotion, no mockery, only extreme arrogance and business-like indifference.
In the eyes of the Star Sea powers, those who ascended from the Lower Realm weren't even qualified to be prisoners; they were just a batch of runaway "property."
"This is too much! They really treat us like swine?!"
The Chen Family Old Ancestor's hair stood on end with rage as he drew his long blade.
"Boom!!!"
Before the warship could even respond, a suffocating wave of destruction had already erupted from the center of that massive metal fortress.
There were no brilliant Spell light effects.
The starry sky tens of thousands of kilometers ahead suddenly collapsed inward like a crumpled piece of white paper!
An invisible, terrifying gravity field ten million times stronger (Singularity Gravity Net) directly ignored spatial distance and locked tightly onto the hull of the Nine Dragon star destroyer!
"Creak, creak—"
The moment it touched this gravity net, the keel of the ninety-thousand-zhang long star destroyer made a tooth-aching twisting sound.
The tail flame from the warship's warp engine was instantly extinguished, and the entire massive hull was being brutally dragged toward that collapsing black hole by an irresistible force!
Dimensional reduction strike!
In the face of Star Sea weapons that could twist the physical Laws of the Universe at will, traditional cultivation shields were as fragile as paper!
"My Lord! The gravity field is too strong, the warship's propulsion System has been locked by high-dimensional Laws! We are being dragged into the center of the singularity!"
Su Qingyu was drenched in sweat as she operated the Formation Plate, but to no avail.
"A combination of Star Sea technology and Laws? Interesting."
On the captain's chair, Lin Que slowly opened his eyes, which contained miniature galaxies.
He didn't show a single trace of panic. Because problems that could be solved with rules didn't require breaking a sweat.
"System. These Scavengers want to cut our power."
"Analyze their physics engine for me and turn this net into a local area network power line."
[Command received! Detected physical blockade by a high-dimensional spatial collapse weapon (Singularity Gravity Capture Net)!]
[Analysis: The enemy is using 'Space Curvature Alteration', forcing the host's warship into an absolute high-pressure area.]
[Logic reorganization initiated—'Interstellar Physics Engine Cracking and Reverse Charging' mode!]
[Operation 1: Forcibly decipher high-dimensional curvature code! Tamper with the underlying logic of 'Gravity Collapse Traction' to 'Full Ship Super Wireless Fast Charging Channel'!]
[Operation 2: Concept Inversion! Determine the tens of millions of times of pressure applied to the hull as 'External Armor High-Frequency Physical Tempering Program'!]
[Operation 3: Activate inner heaven and earth reverse siphon! Connect to the enemy's gravity source and reverse-extract the energy reserves of the metal fortress!]
"Ding! Your warship has been connected to a Star Sea fast-charging pile! Current power is soaring!"
Buzzing—!!!
At the very moment the warship was about to be dragged into the dark singularity.
The invisible, terrifying gravity field surrounding the warship suddenly emitted an extremely piercing sound of energy turbulence!
Those gravitational waves that were originally meant to tear the warship apart, under the System's dominant underlying tampering, actually transformed into visible strands of pure high-energy particles, which, like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, frantically drilled into the warship's external armor and Formation center!
"Alarm cleared! Warship shield charging has reached 300%! Main cannon energy is at full capacity!!"
Su Qingyu shouted in pleasant surprise as she looked at the energy gauge that had instantly gone off the charts.
"How is this possible?! How can the scrap metal from the pasture be immune to singularity gravity?!"
Inside that metal fortress 100,000 kilometers away, the high-dimensional observer looked at the feedback data and emitted an unbelievable mechanical noise.
"The energy is full, but the physical inertia of this gravity pull is still there."
Lin Que looked at the massive warship, which, although no longer taking damage, was still sliding toward the center of the singularity.
He slowly stood up, his large red cloak moving without wind.
He hung the [true immortal artifact: world meteor] at his waist behind him and cracked his neck.
"It seems the mud trucks of the Star Sea still need a handbrake to stop."
Under the shocked gazes of the hundred thousand soldiers on the ship.
Lin Que didn't open the warship's hatch but instead took a step straight out!
Swish!
[Space Law] activated, Lin Que's figure instantly penetrated the warship's armor, appearing abruptly in the absolute zero, radiation-filled vacuum of the Universe!
No magic shield, no life support equipment.
Lin Que just stood there bare-chested, using his pure Dark Gold Demon God Body to withstand the harsh environment of the Universe!
Those vacuum Laws, enough to instantly boil a True Immortal's blood and collapse their Physical Body, hit his skin—which glowed with a dark gold luster—without even leaving a white mark!
"What is he trying to do?!"
The Scavengers inside the fortress zoomed in on the surveillance footage in horror.
They saw that in the vast, boundless Star Sea.
Lin Que's body, as tiny as a speck of dust, suddenly turned around right in front of the warship!
His feet stepped on the Void Realm out of thin air, and the phantom of his hundred-thousand-mile [inner heaven and earth] burst forth behind him, forcibly pressing the surrounding cosmic space into an "Absolute Domain" of his own!
Lin Que reached out his dark gold-lustered hands and, in an extremely crude and savage manner, slammed them onto the bow of that ninety-thousand-zhang long [Nine Dragon star destroyer] that was sliding toward the singularity at high speed!
"Stop... for me!!!"
Boom—!!!!
Words could not describe the visual impact of this scene!
Thirty million jin of pure physical extreme power erupted completely and without reservation at this moment!
Lin Que's muscles bulged high, and his purple-gold blood Qi, like a materialized astral storm, stood firmly against this steel behemoth weighing billions of trillions of tons!
"Creak... Bang!"
The cosmic space beneath Lin Que's feet shattered like glass over a large area. Hard-carrying the tens of millions of times of gravitational pull.
Lin Que used his own strength, his bare hands.
He actually managed to force that boundlessly massive star destroyer to a halt, less than a hundred miles from the singularity abyss!
"Monster... that's a carbon-based monster beyond the limits of physical calculation!! Quick! Charge the main cannon!! Obliterate him!!"
Hysterical alarms rang out inside the metal fortress.
"You want to fire?"
Lin Que's left hand, which was holding back the warship, didn't let go; his eyes, burning with astral flames, locked onto the metal fortress 100,000 kilometers away.
His right hand, extremely slowly yet as heavy as a thousand tons, drew the [jie yun blade] from his back.
"Since I've just arrived and you've set up a toll station."
A cruel grin to the extreme curled at the corner of Lin Que's mouth, and he poured all of his [Void Return Star Domain Realm] cultivation into the blade.
"Then I'll just smash the toll station and consider it paying the toll."
"One Strike... World Breaker!!!"
Swish—!!!!
Lin Que swung the blade with one hand.
A dark gold, terrifying blade light, carrying the weight of a hundred-thousand-mile world and the deprivation of years, was like a primordial crescent moon tearing through the night, directly ignoring the physical distance of 100,000 kilometers.
In this vast, boundless Star Sea, in an extremely clean and dominant manner, it cut that moon-sized metal fortress...
In half!
