Chapter 669: Chapter 597 Sky Blue Star

Behind the castle, lies the restricted area of Green Shadow City.

Within a small valley, there stood a circular stone platform built of white stone blocks, about three steps high and with a radius of twenty meters. The surface was smooth and engraved with mysterious patterns in black, blue, and white. Around its edge, eight tapered columns narrowed upwards, spaced evenly apart.

A faint blue halo connected to the columns at the edge of the platform, wafting up and down.

This was a Third Tier Transmission Array, an S-class secret of Green Shadow City. Surrounding the valley, black towers rose high, and atop the Super Demon Prism Towers, blue and purple energy pulsed through prismatic crystals, emanating a heart-palpitating aura.

With a click,

dressed in casual attire, Tang Yu stepped onto the Transmission Array platform.

A panel like a water curtain unfolded before his eyes.

[Internal Transmission]: (Selectable) Luoxia Sub-territory, Beiting Sub-territory, Yangtze River Delta Sub-territory, Ancient Spirit Sub-territory…

[Secret Realm Transfer]: (Selectable) Holy City, Star Road Station No. 2733, Mage Alliance Branch Secret Realm…

[External Transmission]: Abandoned World No. 2, Abandoned World No. 3… Unknown World No. 18 (can be renamed).

Tang Yu watched, anticipation accompanying each discovery of a new world.

A brand-new world, brimming with infinite possibilities. Only by seeking opportunities in the Endless World could one hope to counter the Alien Race, just as he had once harvested the “World Tree” in Aino World.

Yet, each time anticipation only brought disappointment.

Apart from World No. 1 (Aino Continent), which had been rich in finds, World No. 2 and No. 3, and most of the newly discovered worlds, were abandoned.

Some planets had harsh environments with hardly any valuable resources; others were pillaged of their planetary Origin, now barren and lifeless.

Among the first seventeen worlds, ten had their Origins extinguished, the planets turned to grey dust, their cores cold, the native species completely eradicated.

It weighed on him.

The high frequency of desolate worlds indicated the Devil Race’s plundering had swept across the Endless World, and it was uncertain how long the resisting Alliance could hold out.

Shaking his head, he had considered trying to contact the Starry Sky Alliance, which fought against the Devil Race. But setting aside the question of whether contact was even possible, Earth’s strength was too weak. The weak had no say, especially since the Origin Star was highly coveted.

He could only quell his thoughts, hoping that any newly discovered worlds would be connected to the same universe.

“Let’s not set our hopes too high. It’s good enough if it’s not an abandoned world.”

Among the first seventeen worlds, only World No. 4 and World No. 13 were not abandoned.

World No. 4 was plagued by flying sand, inhabited by a native species known as the ‘Yellow Soil Clan’. Although harsh and with a low concentration of Source Qi, it boasted several Transcendent Metal mines, and two Sub-territories had already been established there in ‘Yellow Sand World’.

World No. 13 was ‘Forest World’, devoid of intelligent species, but richer in Source Qi and diverse resources. Its only drawback was its small size, equivalent to three medium-sized provinces of Daxia Country.

He stepped off the stone platform, standing outside the range of the Transmission Array.

The Space Ring on his hand flickered slightly as several Reconnaissance Puppets appeared on the Transmission Array platform.

Clicking,

he selected World No. 18 for transmission!

A dense blue halo enveloped the entire Transmission Array, and the mysterious patterns on the platform thrummed with energy, converging towards the center.

A hum—

A soft ripple of Space Power spread, and the puppets vanished without a trace.

A Nightmare Puppet materialized beside him. Tang Yu’s consciousness descended onto the Nightmare Puppet, utilizing its affinity with space to sense the ripples from the Transmission Array.

It was like seeing a kaleidoscope of swirling colors, but then it vanished the next moment.

He opened his eyes, sighing deeply.

Talent was lacking, so external aids were used, but even after so long, his understanding of Space Power was still skin-deep.

The few Reconnaissance Puppets were beyond his contact, yet there remained a very faint connection.

After perhaps a few dozen seconds,

the connection with one of the Reconnaissance Puppets suddenly sharpened.

The puppet had returned to the Return City Point inside the castle using an enhanced version of the Return City Scroll, and simultaneously, an image transmitted into his mind.

Among the lush greenery of the forest, sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting a mottled pattern of light and shadow on the ground, resembling a bizarre cut-out pattern.

There were trees, so it was undoubtedly a life planet!

Tang Yu showed a look of joy. From the brief image, it seemed there was no danger nearby, and he could proceed with the second step of his exploration plan.

Beside him, a figure wearing a black trench coat, looking exactly like him, suddenly appeared.

Avatar number one!

Delegating the task of scouting to an avatar was most appropriate.

The black-coated Tang Yu stepped onto the Transmission Array. Moments later, a pale blue halo enveloped him again. The figure blurred under the light, and the next instant, disappeared.

In the blink of an eye, in a breath.

Without the spatial affinity of the Nightmare, Tang Yu could only sense a force enveloping him and before he realized, he was elsewhere.

…

Amidst the trees, the light and shadows were mottled, and the chirping of birds came from afar.

Tang Yu looked around.

It seemed to be an ordinary forest with trees about ten meters tall and as thick as the mouth of a bowl, their branches and leaves lush green, resembling poplars.

Several Reconnaissance Puppets were active a dozen meters away, some collecting fallen leaf samples, others observing and analyzing the surroundings.

Suddenly,

His body felt heavy, a strange pressure enveloped him.

“It’s the world’s suppression force.”

Life planets all have a self-protective instinct. As an outsider, this pressure immediately fell upon him.

Tang Yu was not panicked; this wasn’t his first encounter. In both the “Yellow Sand World” and the “Forest World,” there was world suppression force. In contrast, the Aino world, which had been eroded by the Alien Race like it was filled with holes, had no such suppression force.

“Now, I should only have the combat power of about a seasoned Four Cores, and my perception is even more suppressed…”

The Holy City had a special secret technique; the longer he operated it in this world, the less he would be affected by this suppression force, until it was almost negligible.

In this aspect, the Origin Star was far from matching the Alien Race.

Earth, as the top life planet, had an even more imposing world suppression force. Saints who came here would be suppressed, and ordinary Second Tier Transcendents could likely be suppressed to below Transcendent Tier.

However, the active Alien Race on Earth, despite being suppressed, experienced only minimal reduction in their combat power.

Clearly, the Alien Race had a highly clever way of circumventing the world suppression forces.

He frowned, “The Source Qi is too thin here, thinner than the previous two worlds and the air quality is poor. I think I can smell gasoline.”

Compared to Green Shadow City, where Source Qi was rich and the air was fresh and invigorating, he felt uncomfortable in this world.

It was like moving from clean pool water to murky sewage.

Vrrr—

The Transcendent Force Field kept the dust out.

Tang Yu gathered the Puppets and strode forward, covering tens of meters with each step.

It wasn’t long before he emerged from the forest.

He was on a mountainside.

Looking down from afar, there were several two or three-story buildings situated on flat terrain, seemingly forming a village.

What surprised him, though, was that on the village roads, there were several vehicles that looked… no, they were almost exactly like cars.

Turning his head to look around other areas, he could also see several signal towers, standing tall on the mountaintops.

Huh~

A white airplane flew past above the clouds.

Tang Yu was amazed. What kind of world was this?!
