All players: I can choose my own dungeon rewards.

According to the introduction, a virtual planet refers to a planet that has a special connection with the virtual world.

Wang Zhifan's knowledge of this planet was limited to what was mentioned in the introduction. Even in the copy he obtained, he only heard a few NPCs mention this extremely unfamiliar term and did not get any more detailed information.

At this moment, he was ready for battle and had already arrived at this mysterious planet that was not safe in the introduction through the authority he had obtained.

When he held the Qingdi Sword in his hand and looked around intently, he found that he had come to a very strange world.

There seemed to be no ground under his feet, only a lavender "mist" that people could walk on. Mixed in the mist were many black stones of different sizes, as well as some things that were obviously the creations of civilization, such as metal fragments with neat patterns engraved on the surface, and a rotten mixture that might be part of the corpse of some creature.

Around him, below him, and above him, this scene extended infinitely. Almost invisible but tangible purple "clouds" were floating everywhere, dividing the overall space into many different levels but interconnected parts.

Various stones, debris, unidentified objects and whirlwinds mixed together in the clouds, forming a very strange picture.

"Is this a planet? I can't see any features that a planet should have."

For a moment, Wang Zhifan felt confused. He had been to many strange worlds, but had never set foot in such a strange place.

Looking around, there is no earth, no atmosphere, no sun, no moon, no stars, only endless lavender clouds and various debris that are vaguely visible in the clouds.

With some curiosity, he took a step forward, walked through the purple cloud where he was, and came to its edge.

Then he raised his foot and took a step forward, and found that he was not falling downwards, but automatically flew to the upper left. In the blink of an eye, he stepped on another purple cloud in an upside-down position.

This feeling was very strange. He could clearly feel that gravity was towards him just now, but after taking a few steps, the direction of gravity shifted nearly 180 degrees.

Feeling confused, he immediately tried to walk out of the current cloud and soon confirmed for himself that the gravity of this world was chaotic. Each cloud had its own gravity direction. Once leaving it, it was difficult to know in advance what posture and where you would fall.

"What a strange world... Let's try to find the surprises mentioned in the introduction first."

After gaining a preliminary understanding of the local characteristics, Wang Zhifan gradually sped up his pace, traveling in this empty and unreal world.

At the beginning, he would explore the connecting routes of various clouds and mists, and then he would directly practice the Wind and Thunder Treading the Sky Art and roam around everywhere according to his own will.

During this time, he saw many lifeless stones that were definitely not treasures, an unidentified spaceship that was split in half like a giant metal tree, the corpses of what were suspected to be aliens wearing huge helmets but with very thin bodies, and purple air currents that wandered around like miniature tornadoes.

He found nothing that he could consider to be treasure, nor did he encounter any real danger.

"The introduction said that some virtual planets will sink into the virtual realm. Maybe where I am now is the virtual realm."

After some exploration, Wang Zhifan came to this conclusion in his mind to explain why he had not yet discovered the characteristics of an ordinary planet.

Then he sped up again and swam for a while, and finally found a place that dazzled his eyes before he lost interest in the world and wanted to quit.

It was a huge rock in a "suspended" state without any purple clouds around it, or it could be called an island.

At first glance, there was nothing on the island except bare rocks, but Wang Zhifan's perception was strong enough to keenly discover that the interior of the island was hollow, and there was a wide space artificially excavated hidden inside.

"Is this a strange spaceship? Or is it a secret alien warehouse?"

He immediately came to the conclusion that in a world that was more technologically oriented, his imagination could only extend so far.

Since there was no purple cloud around the island to serve as a springboard, Wang Zhifan used his lightness skills to rush over directly.

His Wind and Thunder Treading Heaven Art was at a high level, and combined with his basic cultivation that was far beyond the standard, he could easily cross the void.

So a few seconds later, he arrived more than ten meters away from the surface of the island, but at this moment, he suddenly sensed danger and stopped in the void.

"Something is watching me, warning me not to get close to this island."

Although he was not sure where the enemy was hiding, Wang Zhifan was extremely certain of this. This was an intuition developed from long-term fighting, and it was also the message that the other party wanted to vaguely convey to him.

"If you don't let me pass...then I'll test your quality."

Without hesitation, Wang Zhifan first quickly retreated to create some distance, and then used his old tricks, releasing several of his dream clones to probe the island from different directions.

As the clones continued to approach, he soon received the same feedback from them, that an unknown entity was warning them not to approach.

When the clones were finally less than one meter away from the island, he suddenly felt that the clones were under an invisible and powerful attack. In the blink of an eye, they were squeezed into small dots and turned into nothingness in the space.

"Interesting... My clone is clearly a spiritual body, and should be immune to ordinary physical compression, but it was compressed to the point of collapse in an instant. The strength of this enemy should not be underestimated."

The result of the test made Wang Zhifan realize that it was not easy to set foot on the island. If he went up, a fight would inevitably occur. The outcome of the battle was hard to predict. He would most likely win, but he would probably pay some price.

"There's no need to step into unknown danger just to satisfy a little curiosity. At least find out what benefits you can get before taking action... Remember this location first."

After thinking about it, Wang Zhifan chose to retreat, mainly because the risks and benefits were not equal. The enemy's strength was definitely not weak, but the benefits were likely to be zero. There was no need for him to cause trouble for himself.

This little episode made him realize that what was said in the introduction was correct. This world is dangerous and hides some secrets, and is worth exploring.

After that, he wandered around the area for a while and found that the purple whirlwinds and floating islands were slightly more numerous from this side. Especially the whirlwinds made of purple mist, Wang Zhifan was not sure about their nature, but it was definitely a dangerous factor.

In other words, Wang Zhifan's survival and defense abilities are strong enough, so he doesn't have to pay too much attention to the trouble they cause. Otherwise, ordinary people would most likely be torn to pieces if they approached them.

After searching hard for a while, Wang Zhifan found the second target that caught his attention.

It was a huge spaceship moving slowly in the purple mist. Its overall length was over a kilometer, like a gigantic beast.

The cylindrical silver-grey metal shell has a rough and wild style with numerous fire nozzles embellished with high-tech features, making it look impressive.

Wang Zhifan sensed that there were many living creatures in the spaceship, so he entered an invisible state and slowly approached. When he found that the creatures in the spaceship did not notice him, he used the wall-penetrating ability of the Shadow Shoes to penetrate inside invisibly. The process was surprisingly smooth.

The spaces in the spacecraft are of different sizes and are connected by numerous passages. Several strange and ugly creatures are active in it, each doing their own job.

There were tentacle creatures that looked like a mixture of cooked noodles, short and stocky potato-like creatures with pointed horns on their heads, and pot-shaped creatures that might have been mutated morning glories. He saw how bizarre and casual aliens could be.

He remained invisible as he toured the interior of the spacecraft, prepared to be discovered and besieged at any time. But what left him speechless was that these aliens, who should have a high level of technological capability, had never noticed that there were guests entering their territory, and no one noticed him at all.

So Wang Zhifan became more and more bold, and searched all the way to what was most likely the cockpit or conference room of this huge spaceship. In the space filled with all kinds of strange instruments, he saw an alien with a pointed potato-like shape showing something to other aliens.

The potato alien, who should be of a high status, used an instrument to project a stone slab with a depression in the middle. He spoke for several minutes without stopping. Then he projected something that looked like a map and spoke for a longer time. He pointed at the map from time to time and projected the depression again, with an anxious or excited mood.

Wang Zhifan could not understand their language, and was not even sure whether the monotonous noise they made was really a language, but the way intelligent life forms expressed themselves was universal, and he gradually saw something.

"The map they showed must be about this virtual world. I can even tell the area I just visited...

Judging from what they said, they should be looking for something here, that is, the stone slab with a depression in the middle...

This slate is very important to them, so they are feeling impatient..."

After analyzing the aliens' intention of coming here, Wang Zhifan couldn't help but become curious. What was the charm of that concave stone slab that looked plain and rough in the projection that could make such a group of people persist in searching for it in a dangerous place?

The reason why they were dangerous was that Wang Zhifan could sense that these aliens were relatively weak, much weaker than the average human on Earth.

Their technology has not yet reached a magical level. Once they encounter danger in the surrounding area, such as a large purple whirlwind, they will most likely overturn, not to mention other hidden dangers.

The facts were indeed as Wang Zhifan thought. Just when he was about to continue watching their meeting for a while, he suddenly sensed a terrifying existence appearing on the side of the spaceship, attacking the spaceship at high speed.

In order to avoid danger, he immediately left the spacecraft and returned to the external environment, where he saw a strange giant beast flying out of the vast purple clouds, approaching the alien spacecraft with hostility.

The behemoth is not made of flesh and blood, nor is it made of steel or stone, but is more like some kind of energy creature.

Overall, it looks like a purple moth with many long hairs growing on its body. It is a hundred meters long and looks eerie and creepy. With a flutter of its wings, it rushed to a position a thousand meters away from the alien spacecraft.

The alien spaceship was obviously very afraid of this kind of existence, and immediately began to speed up its escape, fearing that it would be hit by the strange big moth, and did not even use any means of attack or expulsion.

But just when Wang Zhifan saw the spaceship flying farther and farther away and thought they were safe, he discovered that a hundred-meter-long purple moth suddenly appeared in front of their path and collided violently with them.

In an instant, the outer shell of the kilometer-long alien spacecraft was shattered, but the hundred-meter-long purple moth appeared to be unharmed and drilled into the spacecraft through the gap. The spacecraft was then broken from the inside by the moth and turned into wreckage floating in the vast purple cloud.

"How did that huge moth-like monster suddenly appear in front of the spaceship? It was clearly hanging behind the ship just a moment ago."

Wang Zhifan, who witnessed the whole process of the incident, couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He suspected that the moth had mastered spatial abilities, but the strange thing was that he didn't sense any spatial fluctuations just now, which was inconsistent with his understanding of spatial power.

Out of curiosity, he could not help but want to get closer to observe the giant purple moth, but on the way of stealth approaching, he suddenly discovered that the moth and the alien spaceship that it had destroyed suddenly disappeared. The place where they were originally located became empty, with only purple clouds moving slowly.

Such a scene made Wang Zhifan feel even more confused. He stayed there for a while, thinking about it, and then decided to leave.

But before leaving, another spaceship suddenly appeared in his sight, a spaceship slowly approaching from a long distance.

The spaceship was a silver-gray cylindrical shape with a unique sense of ruggedness, which made Wang Zhifan realize that it was almost the same spaceship that had disappeared before.

However, the next second, he was shocked and realized that the other party did not look like the spaceship that disappeared before, but was exactly the same one. However, it was not destroyed and had been restored to its original state.

"What the hell? How can the ship be restored directly after it was destroyed and everyone died? Where's that giant purple moth?"

Wang Zhifan, full of doubts, chose to get closer to observe. Soon he sensed that the moth that had previously drilled into the spacecraft had disappeared, and the various aliens inside were in normal working conditions, just like what he had seen when he went in to explore.

This kind of thing, like seeing a ghost in broad daylight, was completely incomprehensible to him, and curiosity drove him to dive in again to confirm it.

But before going in, he subconsciously looked in another direction, and then found that in that direction, a small purple dot was moving towards the direction where the spacecraft was moving.

"Is that the purple moth from before? Why did it suddenly run so far away?
No! This all seems to be a replay, a replay of the previous collision event!"

Even before he witnessed the second collision between the moth and the spacecraft, Wang Zhifan had a strong intuition in his heart, realizing that what was happening before his eyes was not simple. It seemed to be an accident, but it was inevitable that it would be repeated over and over again. (End of this chapter)
