Returning from the abyss

Chapter 1251 Conversation

Time is a variable that can never be escaped by beings who have not yet reached the point of true transcendence.

When Lu Ning traveled up through time, the continents that had been pieced together and healed were once again torn open, and the shape of the wounds was once again ordered to be displayed, and the corpses showed the struggle of their former lives. Energy rises from the breach, marking the exploits of the weapons of previous civilizations.

This is the time Lu Ning is looking for.

At this time, the other world suffered heavy losses. Several vacuum zones were created among the monsters that were originally densely packed in the other world. Lu Ning immediately flew up and stabbed into the edge of the other world with a large number of stabilizing appendages. She made her way through the vacuum created by the shelling.

This majestic sprinting action will naturally attract the attention of some beings in the other world, but the flow of time is still continuing. Lu Ning is not only sprinting towards the past in space, but also in time. Those who noticed Lu Ning's existence could only catch her trace for a moment.

After an unknown amount of time passed, Lu Ning's appendages were exhausted, and she finally penetrated the other world - even if her spirit only brought in fragments of a world of death, it still has enough energy for a human being. thickness of. Lu Ning even felt a little dazed for a moment when she penetrated the other world, and then she saw a universe.

The stars are flowing in the picture of the universe, and white ash-like substances are scattered in the sky. There is nowhere to step above and below. The dim stars are struggling to emit a trace of light, but they have no effect on lighting up this cold deep space. .

She suddenly turned her head and saw the planet surrounded by the other world. A celestial body that is as languid as the outer starry sky is outside the planet. Its poles are constantly ejecting the ash-like material, and it is becoming smaller and smaller. A darkness enveloped the area she emerged from. Outside of this darkness, she even saw a wormhole-like concave point in space. A large amount of variegated matter was pouring out from the concave point, turning into a deep dark color. Integrate into that darkness.

The gods poured a cup of despair into the sky of this planet. Since then, no civilization has been able to leave this planet.

Wait a minute...so what?

Lu Ning hurriedly opened the urn and displayed the star map again. Although she did not have the skills to read the star map, it was still possible to have someone mark the route inside in advance. Following this route mark and comparing the stars in the universe in front of him, Lu Ning began to slowly search for that route.

Lu Ning still didn't understand how they dared to spare the stars in their own galaxy, but she did find a route taken by the ship in the ashes. She could even think of the successors chewing carefully through the residue left by the previous generation until every ounce of energy that could be used was squeezed out.

While resting, Lu Ning thought of the tasks of several other people.

She felt a pressure in the deep space, an unknown pressure. Although her body can adapt to the universe and will not suffocate or even explode in the universe, the invisible pressure may crush her at any time. She must seize this time to find the channel and find the traces left by those civilizations that can still leave the planet.

Such an interstellar voyage requires a lot of energy. Even with the reset of time, technological innovation, and utilization of space... after all, it cannot be achieved by relying on the resources of a planet. As for the subsequent civilizations that set sail, they must also consider the issue of successors. Since there are still civilizations on the Haifa continent that can be born, every one of them has probably been considered.

She should have thought about such a problem - launching an expedition to Jingshen and getting the urn of the first civilization. There should still be people like her, and even civilizations. Reading star maps and building long-distance spaceships were all possible before the other world enveloped the planet. Since the predecessors have set an example, future generations will naturally follow suit if they have the conditions.

The reverse flow of time can no longer affect a larger range. Both the pale celestial body and the concave points in space show the positive sequence of time. She can only affect the range within the other world, and deep space is no longer accessible at all. It's a place, after all, it is theoretically connected to Jingshen's body.

However, after Lu Ning only searched for a while, he had to retreat to a place close to the edge of the inner world to rest. The inexplicable pressure in deep space continued to grow, and she had to take a rest. At this time, her spiritual sea was somewhat depleted, and the action of penetrating the world took a huge toll on her.

The location of this space should not be far from the route.

The ashes in her hand weighed nothing.

"Old World...Tsk, how to get to the Old World...Christine can find the way easily, but it's not that easy for me..."

They were as cold as ice, as if they were really burnt ashes. After diving into the dense ash stars, Lu Ning finally saw a... route.

Navigation is a very professional thing, and it cannot be learned by Lu Ning in a short period of time. At this time, she didn't know how long she spent comparing star maps, and she could only follow the world below that was wrapped in it. The planet continues to revolve. If the external time is not affected by her, how long has passed on the ground now? One day or two days, or one month or two months? Lu Ning couldn't estimate it. She felt that she was about to be lost in the ashes of the starry sky, and something was interfering with her thinking.

Within this blueprint, there is stored a set of filtered unified principles. It does not apply multiple different rule systems like the Haifa continent, nor is it like this deep space that has long fallen into deathly silence, but a space that can still operate normally. Civilizations that have gone into space will not hide in this small intercepted part of the universe, but it is not possible that the Haifa continent needs it.

Chang Zaihao needs to go out to Haifa Mainland to inspect and plant "anchor points". Christine needs to use Haifa Mainland as a gun mount to ensure the stability of the opened channel.

Ling Xiaochen needs to go to the world behind each lens to find time-specific materials to build the transmitter body used to knock on the door.

However, she does not want to go to the end through this route, because the failures of those civilizations have proved that this road is not feasible. What she needs is to use the spatial orientation of the route to identify the way to the "old world". According to Christine's classification, the "Old World" should be a piece of starry sky placed in deep space for preservation, and it is another backup method for unknown civilizations to travel beyond. Who would have known that the apocalypse would become more and more severe, and this backup method would no longer be needed.

"Now...how are they doing?"

But she still found a way.

Among the scattered ashes, Lu Ning caught a moment when she could realize that she had been disturbed, and then immediately reached out and grabbed a piece of ashes.

They drained all other planets.

There was no resistance in the passage through the ashes. As Lu Ning moved forward, he was even able to widen the passage in the middle.

Liuye's was easier. She only needed to reserve enough magic materials, and that was because she couldn't help any more.

Lewanska needs to help Christine construct the spell configuration and prepare to deal with the threat of the "Glory Silhouette". He cannot leave the real world.

But it seems like they said there would be some... help?

Lu Ning felt that her thinking was a little slow. The pressure of deep space made it impossible for her to distract herself. Except for finding the path that needed to be focused most, she couldn't separate her thoughts to think about more things, or even recall some things. It’s a little difficult to give advice.

What help can help her quickly enter the old world?

Lu Ning felt that her spirit was getting more and more exhausted, and she even began to fall into a deep sleep uncontrollably.

【very tired? 】

A voice appeared in her mind, and her first reaction was Christine, but then she knew that this was impossible. At the other end of time and space, even Christine could no longer sense her.

"…Death Star."

[Yes, kid. ] "Why are you still looking for me? I remember that I explicitly rejected your solicitation."

[I didn’t find you, but you found me. 】

"I haven't looked for you, I know that very well."

【You step towards the starry sky. 】

"Do you want to say that everyone who goes to the sky is looking for you?"

[Of course not, it’s just that if someone looks at the stars and makes a wish, I can sense it. Don't you have a strong desire? It is this desire that calls me here. 】

"I……"

[I'm dead, kid. I am an echo, and I cannot appear without a real call, as you already know. 】

This was something Lu Ning had judged by herself, and she had no way to refute it.

"But I don't need your help."

[You need it, you have a question, and you know you can get the answer from me. There is no price to pay, the Death Star will respond to everyone, equally to every human being who asks for it. 】

"Then why don't you answer my other question?" Lu Ning said in a different way, "How do we eliminate Jingshen?"

[Under the system of the distribution center, even the original god can still be destroyed. As long as there is an existence that regards itself as a god, it can be destroyed. The destruction of Jingshen has only one difficulty for you - how to see it. ]

"No, you didn't respond to me truthfully..."

[The strength of your strength is another matter. This is not your difficulty, this is your limitation. 】

"I'll still turn you down, Death Star."

【Yeah? look. 】

Although the voice of these words was very soft, Lu Ning felt a thunder sound in her mind. She opened her eyes suddenly and found that her spiritual sea had recovered a lot. However, this was not what surprised her the most. Yes, she really saw a route... no, it should be a staircase.

In the universe that has turned to ashes, four stars are emitting bright light. That brilliance transcends the limitations of space and time, turning the light into substance and paving a path among the ashes. Blue stars, orange-red stars, emerald green stars, and purple-black stars formed a staircase in the sky, and a door opened at the end of the staircase.

Lu Ning was quite familiar with this staircase - the staircase to the stars.

Isn't it a ritual used by the Death Star cult to advance? Why does it appear in front of you? I have not joined any sect, nor have I been promoted to any level.

[Stairs to the Stars is the response your question gets from me. 】

The sound of the Death Star faded away, leaving behind the last words. Lu Ning blinked and found that the four bright stars were gradually disappearing, and the traces left in the sky were slowly disappearing. But for her, whose thinking ability has recovered a lot, this trajectory is enough.

She immediately rushed into the deep space, followed the dissipating stairs of light, and rushed into the door that was about to disappear.

Immediately, a very strong heterogeneous effect suddenly fell on her body, and she almost felt like she had fallen into a trap.

Those proliferated limbs were forcibly removed by rules, and their inhuman appearance was quickly distorted, but they were not transformed into human forms. Lu Ning felt that his entire body was being ground apart, and only his spiritual sea fell into a thick chaos.

At that moment, Lu Ning realized that the "Old World", the escape route prepared by the previous civilization, had already failed.

Since they also come from this universe, they cannot escape the sight of Jingshen here. All matter in the old world has been integrated together, and the rules here are indeed clear, but the end of the universe has been reached ahead of schedule.

She passed through this chaotic final universe with a completely spiritual body. The "old world" has no meaning to anyone. The only use may be that through this place, she can reach the end of time. starting point and record the coordinates.

In the chaos, a faint spot of light appeared behind Lu Ning. Lu Ning suddenly remembered what Lewanska once said——

"We will also launch a phase detector."

Lewanska said to Lu Ning.

"The biggest danger here is that you may get lost, and the phase detector has proven to be an instrument capable of passing through various world layers, but it cannot carry too much energy on its own. But I will use it to make A signpost...a signpost behind you."

Lu Ning was now free from visual constraints and could naturally see the light shining behind her.

"When you see the light blooming behind you, it means that your direction is correct. If not, then readjust your direction. No matter what you encounter, remember one thing, you have to go in the opposite direction of the light go."

"Ha, Lewanska, your backup plan is quite useful. Being prepared is indeed your characteristic."

Lu Ning continued to move forward. Although the old world could be considered a small universe, when everything in it began to collapse into chaos, even the space became smaller.

When her spirit broke free from the sea of ​​chaos, her consciousness suddenly dissipated.
