Otherworldly Desert Dust
Chapter 695 - 646: We Are Siblings
"Brother, it seems like we've taken a wrong turn. This is the Jixi Divine Throne... Oh, in terms of the astrology we learned at school, we are in a very distant part of Scorpio." Yu Yu astutely shifted the topic, then started to observe the densely packed alternate universe around them.
The universe as observed by people in the past was not false; it was a real mapping chart of the alternate universe. The reason why no extraterrestrial signals were ever captured is naturally because humans reside in a nested world woven by the Nuwa God End, with an existential barrier between themselves and the Otherworldly Dust. What they observed before was merely a shadow of the real universe, like the moon reflected in well water—no amount of scientific instruments used could ever detect the real moon.
Now, humans have become strong enough to easily traverse this dimensional barrier. Stronger individuals can freely roam the vast universe they once observed, a universe inhabited by countless incomprehensible life forms. Some of these life forms still reside in lower dimensions, protected by a barrier similar to the Nuwa God End, like how aliens invading Earth can't capture cartoon characters from Earth.
These lower-dimensional life forms are countless, outnumbering the stars in the universe by billions upon trillions. A flower is a world, a dream is a universe; these notions hold true in the Otherworldly Dust, where different dimensions envelop and isolate each other, and biological chains exist in parallel coexistence...
Thus, a life form without strong enough perception, even if it accidentally stumbles into a brilliant cosmic civilization, is no different from an inorganic meteorite drifting through space—mutually indifferent and unaware of each other's existence.
Yu Yu apparently knew much about this universe; she could at a glance see the rulers of the star systems and witness the lords of certain Divine Realms. She could even observe creators like fully automated interstellar factories continuously birthing alien life forms...
"Are you afraid I'll lead you to some mountain hollow in the universe?" Wu Hen asked irritably.
"Of course not. I'll go anywhere with you, brother. I'm just worried about the time it takes to return. You know we're in a far-off universe, and getting back to the Divine Realm could take years. What if Mom and Dad grow old and forget me?" Yu Yu replied.
"Do you have any spell that could instantly take us back to the Divine Realm?" Wu Hen inquired.
"I... I'm not very skilled, I can move a few thousand light-years, but I remember this constellation is at least..." Yu Yu lowered her eyes and said softly with some embarrassment, "Perhaps I should think about soul-traveling back to the Divine Realm."
"The Nuwa God End has already ascended to exist on the same dimensional level as you. How can you descend dimensions to soul-travel?" Wu Hen responded irritably. Thanksforreading—broughttoyouby*.
"Oh, that's right." Yu Yu realized that the original Nuwa God End had already transformed.
"Just follow me. I know a secret path that can quickly take us back home, but it requires a bit of exercise."
Yu Yu found it puzzling, wondering how Wu Hen seemed more familiar with this high-dimensional universe than she was.
They encountered a large number of irregular planets ahead. These weren't just life planets; they resembled nests and colorful eggs, with planets connected by something akin to nerve fibers. From time to time, crimson energy would transfer from one planet to another or radiate from a massive golden nest planet to countless egg stars.
Witnessing this scene, Wu Hen couldn't help but recall various diagrams of neuron activity in biological brains. He understood that these golden nest stars and colorful egg stars were essentially nested worlds, forming a grand cosmic life form that he couldn't yet determine was asleep or active.
Fortunately, he wasn't on the same food chain level as it. He was merely using a wormhole passage here, an action unlikely to disturb this magnificent cosmic life form.
"This seems to be the constellation of high-dimensional insects. Are we just going to intrude?" Yu Yu asked.
"Most of them are in a stage of sleeping and hatching," Wu Hen said.
"I have a transformation technique and can temporarily take on their appearance," Yu Yu said.
"That's even better." Wu Hen nodded, surprised that Yu Yu had this ability.
The immortal path Yu Yu cultivated seemed a bit different from Fairy Gong Qin; she didn't master energy usage as they did but instead could alter the fundamental operational rules of things.
Saying this, Yu Yu exhaled immortal energy from her mouth, which swirled around Wu Hen, forming a thin, silk-like layer. The silk-like immortal energy then adhered to Wu Hen's skin, simulating some external organs humans didn't possess.
Subsequently, Yu Yu bent her hand and blew an immortal energy, like blowing out a special fog robe. She then stepped into this fog robe, elegantly spinning with her hair flowing.
"Are you trying to transform into a mother cockroach? But I don't see any change," Wu Hen activated the teasing gene within their sibling bloodline.
