Chapter 621: Chapter 620 Hidden Connection Point

The body of the Deep Diver had undergone some changes near the connection points, a story concocted by Liao Fan.

But Lu Zixun’s reminder prevented Liao Fan from acting rashly.

Thinking back to today, after noticing several more eyes on him, Liao Fan came up with a bold idea.

Perhaps Wang Zhenxiong didn’t fully trust him, and this place wasn’t a real connection point.

Thinking this, Liao Fan’s eyes filled with intrigue as he began another thorough examination of the Deep Diver’s corpse.

After finding no changes, Liao Fan fell into a long contemplation.

Wang Zhenxiong, watching through the monitors, also appeared puzzled. Had he really misjudged Liao Fan?

Upon arriving at the connection point location given by Yun Yanming, the ambush he imagined did not occur.

It was still the bottomless Abyss, and standing at the edge, Lu Zixun felt the Spiritual Energy Silk thick around him.

“How peculiar.”

He rubbed his chin, Lu Zixun found no connection point.

All there was an endless Void, and a distasteful twist.

Could it be that Yun Yanming also knew the location was false?

Thinking of this possibility, Lu Zixun shook his head. It shouldn’t be.

As a G-level Spiritual Ability User and a high-ranking figure within Crimson, Liao Fan must have personally checked the connection point’s location.

Casually giving a location to fool someone like Lu Zixun, seemed out of character for Yun Yanming.

That meant the inability to find it was Lu Zixun’s own issue.

Not giving up, Lu Zixun searched again, but still found nothing and left Zone 20.

Rather than waste more time here, Lu Zixun would rather go back and sleep.

Of course, before doing that, he decided to make a trip to Area A.

“Enter.”

Zeng Haoyang’s voice came from the office, and Lu Zixun walked in, sitting down in front of Zeng Haoyang as if at home.

Zeng Haoyang looked up, sensing the Extraordinary Power on Lu Zixun. Setting down his pen, he asked, “Did you encounter someone with a Derivative Ability, from Crimson?”

Unexpectedly, Zeng Haoyang could sense the Extraordinary Power Lu Zixun possessed. He nodded slightly. “Yun Yanming, he came to talk to me about some matters, and incidentally provided me with the location of the connection point.”

Zeng Haoyang wasn’t surprised.

After all, things were not as harmonious within Crimson as outsiders might imagine.

Yet, for Yun Yanming to divulge the connection point to Lu Zixun was something Zeng Haoyang pondered.

After a while, he spoke. “The location of the connection point should be correct, but it’s not something you can find.”

“Oh?”

Hearing this, curiosity flashed in Lu Zixun’s eyes. How did Zeng Haoyang know he hadn’t found it?

“Connection points are hidden in the Void. Similar to the ruins where the Demon Country is currently located, hiding things in the Void where they cannot be detected is something you, I believe, know how to do.”

Zeng Haoyang smiled. “Unless the controller allows the connection point to appear, or you have the authorization.”

Similar to how ruins are hidden…

Lu Zixun’s gaze deepened. No wonder he couldn’t locate it, even using the power of the Void. That explained it.

The reason Demon Country had remained unaffected by the war between Crimson Land and Insect Breeding Grounds was its ability to hide within the Void. However, this method wasn’t invincible.

If someone could kill Lu Zixun, once the controller was lost, Demon Country would be exposed on the surface of Crimson Land.

But this meant that the location of the connection point probably still depended on Liao Fan.

After all, who had the authorization to hide it might not even be clear to Yun Yanming himself.

Considering this, Lu Zixun’s face showed dissatisfaction. “Yun Yanming must be aware of this, yet he deliberately gave me a location. Interesting.”

“He might not know this.”

Shaking his head, Zeng Haoyang corrected him. “Take Demon Country as an example. In your perspective, you know it’s somewhere specific. But if we go there, we see nothing. That’s because we don’t have the authorization.”

“And Yun Yanming might be in the same situation, after all, who would think that someone would actually hide a connection point?”

“That makes sense.”

Lu Zixun’s mouth twitched slightly, and he decided not to continue this topic further. “Old man, do you know about the connections to the Five-layered World, or how to reach people from the Five-layered World?”

Now that the issue of the connection point was resolved, the remaining problem was how to get people from the Five-layered World to come here.

Since connection points couldn’t be destroyed by external forces, at least not with Lu Zixun’s current power.

Faced with this question from Lu Zixun, Zeng Haoyang also fell into thought.

The channels to enter different world tiers exist in the Abyss, but finding these channels was a challenge.

Because their location was random.

To solve this puzzle, it might be worthwhile to think about how to contact someone from the Five-layered World instead.

Zeng Haoyang pondered for a moment. “With the current power of Crimson Land, achieving the two things you mentioned is unrealistic.”

He tapped his fingers lightly on the desk, continuing, “First, you need to understand the reason why the tiered worlds appeared, as a form of protection. Have you noticed that more and more Spiritual Energy Users have been breaking through to J-level?”

Lu Zixun glanced at the system feeling value detection system and nodded, for it was indeed so.

“This is because as the worlds connect, the level of Spiritual Energy in our world is increasing, which accelerates both breakthrough and cultivation speed.”

Pausing, Zeng Haoyang’s expression became serious. “But this is not necessarily good news, the greater the emergence of powerful beings in an era, the more it signifies that a major event is happening.”

“I haven’t seen many powerful beings emerging though. Isn’t this an overall improvement in strength?”

As someone naturally inclined to argue, Lu Zixun couldn’t help but speak up.

Hearing this, Zeng Haoyang glared at him, raising a finger to point at Lu Zixun. “Do you think you’re not powerful? Do you think Xiong Kang isn’t powerful? Do you think Qing Yuanyang isn’t powerful?”

Several questions in quick succession left Lu Zixun bewildered. When had he, from being insignificant, become powerful?

Had Zeng Haoyang not mentioned it today, Lu Zixun wouldn’t have known how impressive he really was…

Seeing that Lu Zixun didn’t respond, Zeng Haoyang didn’t bother to argue further.

Shaking his head, he continued, “Finding an unmarked channel is a difficult task. Why not contact an Elf Walker from the Five-layered World? Isn’t she from there?”

“…”

Raising a hand to his forehead, Lu Zixun sighed. Here we go again.
