Chapter 557 The core of the celestial body

Under Yu Cang's comfort, the princess regained her energy.

Although... due to the poor information, Yu Cang's comfort did not have any effect, but this "clumsiness" just gave the princess a feeling of peace of mind.

"Okay." The princess said with a smile on her face, "Thank you, Yu Cang. Don't worry, I am the princess of the empire and I won't be depressed for too long."

"That's good." Yu Cang nodded, "When the time is right, I will go with you to find your brother."

"…Um."

"If you really can't wait and want to leave now... also tell me that the things in the ice city are the fruits of your labor and you can take them away at any time - you don't have to be polite to me, I know your strength is damaged It’s very serious. Many souls are in a state of slumber. If it’s not enough, I’ll talk to the association and maybe get a few more consciousness beasts back.”

Hearing this, the princess's eyes suddenly fluctuated, her smile faded for a moment, and then returned to normal.

"I understand...Thank you, Yu Cang. But I will not leave you at this time."

"That's good."

Yu Cang carefully observed the princess's face, and after making sure that there was no strange expression, he breathed a sigh of relief.

In the terminal, Di Changan just wanted to check with Xingchen to confirm the situation.

This means that you don’t need to tell her this news yet.

For the current Blue Star, stardust is a very important power. Whether it is for the spirit child, the star realm or the star field, they all need the knowledge of the princess.

If the princess knew that she had to go to the Dire Border, it would be harmful but useless.

In fact, their subsequent hunting trip had something to do with it. This trip was extremely dangerous. It would not be good if something went wrong because the princess was distracted.

However, this was Yu Cang's business after all, so Emperor Changan informed Yu Cang of this information and let him decide whether to inform the princess or not.

Yu Cang naturally chose to hide nothing.

And Stardust...naturally knows this too.

Therefore, the emotions in her heart now become more complicated.

She knew that Yu Cang didn't just say it casually. If he made up his mind to leave now, he would definitely go to the association directly. Even if those beasts had been put into use, he would probably get a few for her.

Then, he would compensate the association in his own way.

Bingcheng, which he had worked diligently for a long time, had become the most important base for producing souls, and Yu Cang could give the entire Bingcheng to himself with just one sentence.

She had to admit that Xingchen had always thought that she was working for Yu Cang, but she was indeed touched by Yu Cang's sudden arrival.

It turns out that this is how it feels to be treated like this by a friendly superior.

This is an emotion that the princess has never experienced before, and even as a royal, she feels willing to follow.

She couldn't help but smile, and then her eyes looked a little lonely.

While realizing this, she also knew that...if her brother were in this position, he would never tell her the news.

Brother...he only has one goal in his eyes.

Even if there was only one in 10,000 chance that he would choose to leave directly, he would not take the risk.

Anyway, when the Hunter clan is in trouble and he really wants to go to the Dire border, it's not too late to tell him the news, isn't it?

This approach may be better, but for Xingchen, Yu Cang's handling method is always what touches her more.

"Okay, let's not talk about this." The princess took a deep breath, "Let's talk about something else... Yu Cang, do you have more information about the Night Dire border?"

"What's wrong?" Yu Cang opened his eyes wide, "Are you really going to leave?"

"...No, it's just that since my brother has decided to go there to stop the famine...then that place must be very special. At least my brother feels that as long as he holds it there, he can protect Blue Star."

The princess calmed down at this time. She thought for a moment and said: "Perhaps... we can find a lot of information from there and answer some questions."

Hearing this, Yu Cang frowned slightly.

Indeed, there may be something worth exploring in this.

It is known that the "egg" of Chao Ci is protected by laws. As long as normal people have the idea of ​​​​looking for Chao Ci, it is impossible to find this place. It can be said to be isolated from the world.

Only those weak people who wander around have a very low chance of accidentally coming near Blue Star.

It has been hundreds of millions of years since the birth of Blue Star. After such a long time, there is still no weak person who has come here through this way. The high probability shows that the road to Blue Star may be very dangerous.

Dire Border seems to fit this definition.

Could it be that Blue Star exists in the Dire Border? If this is the case, then the boundary of the Night Dire that is qualified as a "hotbed" for the hatching of Chao Ci eggs must also be very special, at least more special than the association's current understanding of it.

Yu Cang thought again of the trophy he received for participating in the major military reform.

A piece of dim light crystal can extract such a heirloom entry as [Star Core].

Thinking of this, Yu Cang nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he said:

"The Dire Boundary... This place was actually discovered by the association only recently. There is darkness inside, no light, and the only luminous substance is something called the Ghost Light Crystal... Currently, the association believes that the Dire Boundary, Possibly the 'edge' of the astral realm."

Yu Cang actually doesn't know much about the boundaries of Night Dire, most of it is public information.

Soon, Yu Cang told Xingchen everything he knew, and in the process, her expression gradually became serious.

By the time Yu Cang finished speaking, Xingchen had fallen silent. She rubbed her chin, and thoughts flashed through her eyes.

Seeing this, Yu Cang hesitated for a moment and said: "Xingchen, when you entered Blue Star ten thousand years ago, didn't you pass through the Dire Border?"

"...At that time, we started the teleportation directly after locating the star field through astrology. It didn't need to be that complicated."

"In this way..." Yu Cang paused, and then said, "By the way... the place called the 'gloomy light crystal' may be... the 'star core'."

"Huh?" The princess raised her head, "How do you know?"

“…through perception and computation.”

This is true. The performance of the dim light crystal in the star field is very special, and many of its rhythms cannot be seen elsewhere. Then if we go through some astrological calculations and comparisons, we can easily conclude that this material comes from the interior of the celestial body.

However, in this field, Blue Star's astrology level is still very primitive. Normal calculations are estimated to take a long time, as well as some talent and inspiration.

But if Yu Cang extrapolated from the results given by the entry recorder, it would be much simpler.

For a moment, the princess couldn't help but look at Yu Cang with a somewhat complicated expression.

Star core... Blue Star probably doesn't even know what kind of material it is, but Yu Cang can draw this quite accurate conclusion based on some clues. This kind of talent is an absolute genius no matter which civilization it is placed in.

Hmm...Yu Cang was originally a genius. "Don't look at me with that look." Yu Cang coughed lightly, "Um...looking at you, could my conclusion be correct?"

"Of course." The princess nodded, "If it is just recorded by the association, then there are many qualified worlds and planets in the star world, and the star core... then the range that can be locked is much smaller. I probably already know about Night Dire. Where is the border?”

"Where?" Yu Cang's eyes showed curiosity.

When he went to participate in the military preparations, Stardust and Ladu had not yet joined his team, so they had not seen the Dire border with their own eyes.

I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but if I can confirm it just from the description, then this place should be... quite special, right?

"I have about an 80% chance of confirming..." Stardust took a deep breath, "The boundary of the Dire should be a place called the 'Graveyard of Stars'!"

"You don't need 80%." La suddenly interrupted, "This is the 'Cemetery of the Stars'."

"Oh?" Stardust turned his head, "Are you sure?"

"Yeah." La nodded.

It seems that something has been determined.

Xingchen thought thoughtfully: "Is this so... So that's the case, no wonder..."

"Stars Cemetery..." Yu Cang blinked, "This name doesn't sound like a good place..."

"It's really not a good place." Xingchen said, "Well... maybe not necessarily."

"What's the meaning?"

"Star Cemetery... As the name suggests, it is the place where stars fall after they are extinguished. Your calculation is correct. The dim light crystal is the 'star core', which is the crystallization of stardust after death, and is the most essential part."

"Ah?" Yu Cang was shocked.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

That thing that can be seen everywhere in the Dire Border...is it so awesome?

What is the most essential part among the stars... But it seems that apart from emitting light, this dim light crystal has no other function at all!

And celestial bodies are existences that transcend mythology. How could the essence of this existence after death be a light bulb that only emits light?

Isn't this right?

"Um...does this dim light crystal have some other functions..."

Ra looked at Stardust.

Stardust also looked at Ra.

After a moment of silence, La said: "Don't you have any records in your empire?"

"Uh...no."

"Well, it seems that it is completely useless." La nodded as expected.

Yu Cang: "..."

So it’s really useless, right?

Yu Cang was originally looking forward to it. This thing might be some kind of treasure.

In the end, is it really just a light bulb?

"It's not completely useless." La said, "Well, let me first tell you what the Stars Cemetery is... This place is actually equivalent to the 'garbage dump' of the star realm. You already know, strong man After transcending myth, they will be distorted into celestial bodies, and their energy will burn eternally among the stars.

"Generally speaking, this kind of celestial body will not be extinguished easily, but there is one exception-that is when the era changes."

Yu Cang's eyes widened a little: "Ah? Doesn't that mean that...the dim light crystals in the boundary of the Nightmare are all left over from the previous era?"

"It can only be said that it is partly true," La said. "After ordinary celestial bodies are extinguished, they will also be pulled to this place by unknown forces. Ghost crystals... are actually extremely rare in the universe, so they are quite precious. , where there are dim light crystals everywhere, there is only the Cemetery of Stars.

"The Star Cemetery is at the 'lower part' of the entire star realm. It stands to reason that no civilization can be born nearby. To get here from other places, you have to pass through a dark star field with almost no stars. It is extremely difficult to identify the direction. The environment is even more harsh, the gravity is often chaotic, and there are no conditions for nurturing life.

"Blue Star can exist in the boundary of Night Dire... I think it is only possible because of Chao Ci."

"That's wrong." Yu Cang asked, "As far as I know, there are quite a few worlds near Blue Star. Youhuang Tianjie is an example, and Ye Yanshenhua also traveled to other nearby worlds..."

"I don't know where Ye Yan went, but the Youhuang Heaven Realm -" La paused, "it should have been pulled from the depths of the universe by the God of Desolation as a means of attack... The state of the Youhuang Heaven Realm is also This can be proven - the fragmentation of space should be caused by the internal pressure and chaos when the world is being pulled. "

Yu Cang: "..."

He suddenly remembered what Aragami once said.

If he wants to, then all the wild beasts in the star world will be used by him, and a steady stream of wild beasts will invade Blue Star.

Could it be like the Youhuang Heaven Realm?

"Moreover, it's just that it's difficult for life to be born. Normal small star worlds will still exist."

"so…"

"Speaking of which, the Cemetery of Stars is also a rare archaeological site." La said, "For Roland Sky Realm, it is still very dangerous to enter the third layer of the star field. In the Cemetery of Stars, let alone the previous era, it is still very dangerous. Yes, there is a possibility that the dim light crystals from the last era or even longer will remain.

"It's just that these ghost light crystals are usually buried very deep, and it's very difficult to mine them. Yu Cang, there should be an entrance to the Dire Border near Yedu, right?"

Yu Cang nodded: "Yes, there is."

Yedu is a capital city quite close to the frontier.

Yujiang is not far from Yedu, no more than a hundred kilometers apart.

The place where we last participated in the major armament reform is not far away.

Yu Cang has never cared about this kind of thing, but the probability of an entrance to the Night Dire border appearing near Yedu can be said to be quite high.

"Let me tell you." La showed an expression that was indeed true. "According to common sense, it is very difficult to enter the third level. Even the Emperor Star would find it difficult to pull you there without your consent. There, after all, It's the starry sky.

"And at the Dire border, that makes sense—here, the depth of the third layer of the starry sky will be much shallower."

"Is that so..." Yu Cang nodded, "So... what is the use of this dim light crystal..."

Asked this question again, La still shook his head.

"It doesn't work."

"But you didn't mean..."

"Yu Cang, do you think Huang Jing is useful?"

"Well, it's of no use... except for using the soul cards of the mechanical clan as magazines... and so on." Yu Cang's eyes widened, "You don't mean to say..."

"That's right - you can understand that this is the 'barren crystal' of the celestial body."
