Douluo: Not enough blood? Use your brain

Only after a desolate star came into view did Yuan Kong and the others breathe a sigh of relief.

Xu Yuan also noticed the peculiarity of this desolate star—the power of space was too dense, and it gave people a very solid feeling, as if the space had been compressed.

This feeling was like a spatial wormhole.

However, this was not a spatial vortex in the cosmic space, but a substantial planet.

With a feeling of doubt, Xu Yuan landed on this desolate star.

He looked at Yuan Kong.

Yuan Kong also knew that Xu Yuan didn't understand the situation here and explained, "In the universe, distance is the biggest obstacle to the connection between major planes. Unless there can be two interconnected wormholes appearing next to the two planes, it is possible to establish a real, substantial connection.

Because of this, in reality, there are very few planes in the universe that are territorially contiguous and have contact with each other. Apart from our Sacred Heart Plane and the Crimson Domain, which expand their territories to cover an entire galaxy, other planes are just isolated points, and spatial wormholes connect these two points together.

These wormholes connecting different points sometimes span a considerable distance, possibly crossing other planes between the two sides. Therefore, the planes that seem to have direct contact or even conflicts and wars actually do not have direct territorial contiguity, but are connected by the existence of a wormhole."

Xu Yuan nodded.

Therefore, the universe seems to have six directions: up, down, left, right, front, and back, but in reality, the existence of wormholes must also be considered.

These wormholes twist and fold different stages of the original cosmic space together, making the entire cosmic space abstract, thus forming special high-dimensional regions.

This is the root of expanding the plane's territory to indirectly increase the plane's dimension—a three-dimensional body is twisted into a quasi-four-dimensional or even quasi-five-dimensional one.

"However, wormholes connect two points by traversing vast distances and truly distort spacetime. What we have in front of us is another way to travel in the universe."

"This is the spacetime corridor. In fact, the principle of its formation is very similar to that of wormholes. It is also formed by the accidental convergence of dense spatial power, but instead of exploding to form an energy-state wormhole, it combines with materialized matter."

"Of course, spacetime corridors are even rarer, because it is equivalent to not only having the conditions for the birth of wormholes, but also having matter that is compatible with them as a carrier. The most important thing is that the spatial position must be able to bear the weight. For example, if you use a truck to carry goods, if all the goods are piled up at the rear of the truck, it will break the balance of the truck. The carrier is the same."

"Therefore, spacetime corridors are even more difficult to create and are very rare. Not only that, but the transmission efficiency of spacetime corridors themselves is not high. They do not have the characteristic of wormholes that can cross infinite distances in an instant, but still need to rely on flight to travel, except that the highly compressed spatial corridor of the spacetime corridor greatly shortens the distance on this line."

Xu Yuan was speechless as he listened to Yuan Kong's popular science.

So, it's rare and impractical, this thing...

"These two points have led to the fact that spacetime corridors are not very popular in the universe, but spacetime corridors also have a very important characteristic, which is concealment."

Concealment?

Xu Yuan was thoughtful.

Does it mean that this place is hidden enough?

Recalling the perception from a distance just now, it was indeed much weaker and more restrained than the fluctuations emitted by wormholes.

"The so-called concealment is not that this desolate star is concealed," Yuan Kong said with a smile, "Concealment is because we are actually corresponding to different nodes in the journey in the corridor."

"Throughout the entire corridor, we can jump out anywhere in the middle and return to the cosmic space. And when we walk in the spacetime corridor, as long as we don't cause large fluctuations in space, we cannot be perceived in the corresponding cosmic space."

Xu Yuan suddenly understood.

How is it concealed!

This is indeed very powerful.

Suddenly, a person jumps out next to you.

Before he jumps out, you can't even feel him at all.

"In this case, doesn't it mean that the other party can't even find the entrance to this spacetime corridor by investigating the location where you appeared?"

Xu Yuan also thought of the key point.

Yuan Kong nodded with a smile.

"Yes, even if a wormhole leading to the core hinterland of the Crimson Domain is accidentally discovered, after one transmission, it is very likely to be searched by the Crimson Domain and the exit will be blocked, but the spacetime corridor will not be discovered."

Therefore, the reason why Yuan Kong and the other three could join forces to descend on the core of the Crimson Domain last time to hunt down the Crimson Mother, and can still directly respond to Xu Yuan without worrying about transmission problems, is because of the existence of this spacetime corridor.

After all, the Crimson Domain has a vast territory. If it were purely relying on traveling, it is estimated that it would take ten or twenty years to fly to the core area.

How could this achieve a surprise attack?

"The spacetime corridor is also attached to the real cosmic space, so it has a substantial length. It still takes about three days to fly from here to the core area of the Crimson Domain."

Three days?

Three days is still acceptable.

"I'm very curious, how did you three retreat last time?"

Xu Yuan also suddenly thought of this question.

"Very simple, spatial wormhole," the Life Empress Bai Ling said with a smile.

The corners of Xu Yuan's mouth twitched.

You're an old woman who's tens of thousands of years old, don't really pretend to be a girl.

However, Bai Ling only said this little bit of information, and Xu Yuan already knew the complete answer—forcibly breaking into the spatial wormhole controlled by the Crimson Domain.

The three great half-step God-Kings only couldn't kill the Crimson Mother when they joined forces, but they weren't afraid of the Crimson Mother.

If they really wanted to retreat, they would naturally charge straight ahead and directly 'borrow' the nearby wormhole.

“Near the Crimson Star, there is a wormhole connecting to the Starry Sky Domain. We'll leave from there and then return to the Saint Heart Plane through the wormhole in the Starry Sky Domain,” Yuan Kong said.

Xu Yuan found the location of the wormhole Yuan Kong mentioned on the star map.

“Alright, let's set off.”

Yuan Kong stood at the forefront. He mobilized the power of space and outlined a small portal shape in front of him. This small portal shape resembled a Gate of Time and Space, but it only looked similar and had obvious differences in reality.

As the small portal landed on the barren star's surface, it seemed to have opened a gateway for the barren star's land. Within the portal, a vortex rapidly expanded.

Yuan Kong jumped down first.

Xu Yuan and the other two followed closely behind.

The situation inside the time-space tunnel shocked Xu Yuan.

Here, you couldn't see or hear anything. Relying on your own perception to sense everything around you, you would discover that you were still on the previous barren star.

“How amazing.”

It was also Xu Yuan's first time experiencing a time-space tunnel.

“Being in a time-space tunnel is like entering the inner world of the universe. If you carefully sense it, you can perceive the outside world, but within the time-space tunnel, everything is unknown,” Yuan Kong's voice rang out.

He was already flying forward.

Xu Yuan followed.

The four traveled in the tunnel.

Three days later.

In their perception, the power of the surrounding stars even streaked across the space, leaving deep red halos.

They had already arrived at the core of the Crimson Domain.

“Everyone, let me remind you that the Crimson Mother is fierce, cruel, and unscrupulous. Once she really reaches the end of the road, she may desperately fight back.”

Bai Ling looked at the three seriously, especially Xu Yuan.

He was giving Xu Yuan a final reminder.

“A Plane Master's desperate struggle is fatal to us. Therefore, during the battle, we don't seek a sure kill with one strike, but only seek to reserve strength to cope with the Crimson Mother's crazy counterattack.”

In a four-on-one situation, killing the Crimson Mother was not a life-risking task.

Therefore, as long as they weren't greedy and rash, reserving some strength was still achievable.

Attack the enemy with three parts of your strength, and keep seven parts for yourself.

Xu Yuan indicated that he had experience with this.

Not long ago, he had just solved one, no, two Plane Masters. One was so weak that it wasn't worth mentioning, the whole process was too smooth. The other self-destructed at the last moment, but Xu Yuan kicked him out of the qualifications for self-destruction.

Xu Yuan couldn't guarantee that he could interrupt the Crimson Mother's self-destruction.

After all, this was a real powerhouse of the same level.

So, he would still be careful.

After Bai Ling's final reminder, the four exchanged glances and immediately broke through the time-space tunnel.

They had already found the Crimson Mother's aura.

“Hmm?”

The Crimson Mother awoke from her slumber.

Her eyes were blood-red, and her pupils were like rubies, seemingly reflecting a dark red galaxy.

In the void, a figure slowly condensed, as if formed from space.

She wore a dark red dress, and her body was filled with crimson energy.

At this moment, the Crimson Mother's face was full of anger.

She looked at Yuan Kong and the other three and said angrily, “It's you again!”

Her heart burned with anger.

Last time, these three guys had wantonly destroyed her plane, causing her to make no progress until now, and instead, she had been making up for the losses of the plane back then.

Although she had retaliated, it was an option where both sides suffered.

For the Crimson Mother, who was determined to become a God-King, this long delay drove her crazy.

Now that Yuan Kong and the other three had attacked again, the Crimson Mother vowed that no matter how much damage her Crimson Domain suffered this time, she would recover at least three administrative stars from their Saint Heart Plane!

Administrative stars were probably the planets in the Saint Heart Starfield where teleportation arrays were set up.

The Crimson Mother's gaze was fixed on Xu Yuan.

Who was this?

A new Half-step God-King?

Just because there was one more person, could they deal with her?

“Yuan Kong, wait, however much the Crimson Domain loses this time, I will recover twice as much from your Saint Heart Plane!”

This time, the Crimson Mother changed her strategy.

Although she would not reduce her revenge on the Life Star and the Starry Sky Domain, she felt that she must severely hurt one side, such as the Saint Heart Plane.

After speaking, the Crimson Mother was already preparing to retreat.

She was saying the toughest words, but doing the most cowardly thing.

Xu Yuan had already sensed the spatial fluctuations. While speechless, he also locked onto the Crimson Mother with the Saint Summoning at the first moment.

The Primordial Chaos Spear appeared in his hand, and he thrust it out.

The Crimson Mother was shocked and subconsciously took out a divine artifact scimitar, slashing fiercely at Xu Yuan.

She didn't understand why she would suddenly attack this newcomer.

She clearly wanted to teleport.

It's bad.

In just an instant, the Crimson Mother realized that something was wrong.

This newcomer was definitely invited by Yuan Kong and the other three to target her!

This time, Yuan Kong and the other three were determined to kill her!

“Your Excellency, I have no grievances with you, why do you have to fight me to the death? This is the core of my plane. If I fight desperately and cling to one person, I can definitely kill that person. Your Excellency doesn't need to risk a one-fourth chance of death.”

The Crimson Mother began to persuade him at the first moment.

Although she wasn't sure how much of a threat Xu Yuan could pose to her, she still chose to try to persuade him first.

Moreover, she was also probing Xu Yuan's origins.

As long as she could survive this time, she would definitely retaliate, retaliate fiercely!

A newly born Half-step God-King, and the cultivation system was not the original Half-step God-King force at all, it was obviously a newly born plane.

Only a newly born Half-step God-King's plane dared to provoke her, it was simply outrageous!
