DipNovel Chapter 407 Departure from the Stars
Chapter 407 Departure from the Stars
It was just dawn.
When Lu Sheng came out of the secret room, Xuan Yin was already waiting for him in the square.
She stood at the edge of the square, carrying a small storage bag on her back. Her dark green dress swayed slightly in the sea breeze.
Dao Yi, Li Xiaoyao, and Luo Tianfei were also present.
Dao Yi's expression was somewhat complicated. He didn't know when his master would return after leaving, and although he said it was fine, he was still a little panicked inside.
"My lord," Dao Yi stepped forward. "Have a safe journey."
Lu Sheng nodded. "Don't embarrass me."
"No, it won't."
Lu Sheng turned to look at Li Xiaoyao. "Have you broken through yet?"
Li Xiaoyao chuckled. "I broke through last night. Peak Spirit Emperor Realm!"
"Good. Keep practicing."
Lu Sheng didn't say anything more. He walked to the center of the square, his fourteen dragon wings unfolding behind him.
Then he looked at Xuan Yin.
"Keep up."
Two beams of light shot into the sky, pierced through the atmosphere, and flew into space.
Lu Sheng was in front, and Xuan Yin was behind.
The two passed through the outer metal armor layer of Earth one after the other and entered deep space.
Lu Sheng's flight speed is extremely fast. At the peak of the mid-stage of the Spirit Saint realm, full-speed flight covers distances in space measured in tens of thousands of miles per second.
Xuan Yin was at the early stage of the Spirit Saint realm, and her speed was slower than Lu Sheng's. But she gritted her teeth and kept up, not falling behind.
The two remained silent the entire way.
Lu Sheng remained silent, and Xuan Yin did not speak either.
After flying for about six hours, the two left the solar system.
The surrounding starry sky became empty. The points of starlight became much sparser, replaced by vast expanses of dark void.
Xuan Yin finally couldn't help but speak up.
"Sir, our flight path... doesn't seem to be the same as G-137's."
Lu Sheng didn't even turn his head. "I know."
"So where are we going?"
"I told you, I decide the route. Don't ask."
Xuan Yin swallowed back the words that were about to come out.
It took another four hours to fly.
Lu Sheng suddenly slowed down and stopped.
Xuan Yin stopped as well.
She looked around. The vast emptiness of space, devoid of any stars or anything unusual. Just pure darkness.
"Your Mightiness?"
"Let's rest here for a bit," Lu Sheng said.
He was suspended in space, facing Xuan Yin.
"Before we move on, I need you to do one thing."
"What is it?"
"Hand over all your communication devices."
Xuan Yin's pupils contracted slightly.
"Your Excellency, this—"
"This is not negotiable." Lu Sheng's tone left no room for negotiation. "The place I'm going to next cannot have any risk of information leakage. Hand over all your communication devices, including law signal markers, spirit source trackers, spatial coordinate anchors—whatever they may be."
Xuan Yin remained silent for three seconds.
"Are you doubting me?"
"I suspect everyone," Lu Sheng said. "You don't need to feel offended. This is just basic security."
Xuan Yin looked into Lu Sheng's eyes.
What she saw in those vertical pupils was clear—not hostility, but an extremely calm and calculating scheme.
This person doesn't make judgments based on any emotions. Every decision he makes is a pure weighing of pros and cons.
"good."
Xuan Yin took out two items from her sleeve.
A jade pendant of emerald green – a communication tool.
A thin golden needle—a spatial coordinate anchor point.
She handed the two items to Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng took it and scanned it with his dragon eyes.
The communication artifact can transmit law signals within a range of 300,000 miles. The spatial coordinate anchor point allows the Myriad Manifestations Divine Court to locate her position at any time.
Is there anything else?
Xuan Yin hesitated for a moment.
Then she took a tiny gold bead from her hairband.
"This is a protective magic bead bestowed by the Celestial Venerable. It contains a trace of the Celestial Venerable's will and laws. It can be released to protect me in times of crisis."
"But it is also a signal source. The Celestial Venerable will sense it the moment I release the magic pearl."
Lu Sheng took the magic bead and examined it in his palm.
There was indeed a wisp of extremely powerful law power within it. Although that power was only a trace of the will of the Myriad Manifestations Celestial Venerable, its quality far surpassed that of the Spirit Saint Realm.
The Fairy Realm.
It could even be higher.
"This thing is pretty good," Lu Sheng said.
He put the magic beads into his storage space.
"Your Excellency—" Xuan Yin's expression finally changed slightly. "That's a life-saving item given to me by the Heavenly Venerable. If I encounter danger—"
"You'll be safe with me," Lu Sheng interrupted her. "There aren't many people in this star field who can threaten me. And those who can, even this magic bead can't save you."
Xuan Yin opened her mouth, but did not refute.
Because Lu Sheng is right.
When facing attacks from peak Spirit Saints or even Spirit Immortals in the early stages of a Spirit Saint realm, a magic bead with only a one-time effect can have a negligible impact.
"Is there anything else?" Lu Sheng asked.
"there is none left."
Lu Sheng scanned her from head to toe with his dragon eyes.
After confirming that there were no other signal sources or tracking devices, he nodded.
"Let's go."
The two continued on their way.
It took another eight hours to fly.
Xuan Yin clearly sensed the changes in the surrounding space.
The laws of space began to distort. Space was no longer smooth, but rather exhibited a subtle fluctuation. Every now and then, a faint spatial rift would flash in the distance before disappearing.
"This is..." Xuan Yin frowned.
"The outer perimeter of the spatial anomaly zone," Lu Sheng said.
He slowed down.
Debris began to appear in space ahead.
A large number of fragments.
Metal fragments, energy residue, twisted hull structure...
Battleship graveyard.
Xuan Yin looked at the scene before her, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.
This is the area the Myriad Manifestations Divine Court has been searching for: a spatial anomaly zone scattered with the wreckage of ancient warships.
G-137.
Although the flight direction is not exactly the same as the star marking, the characteristics of this area are completely consistent with the intelligence description.
"We've arrived." Lu Sheng stopped.
He turned to look at Xuan Yin.
"From here on, you wait here."
Xuan Yin glanced at the floating wreckage of warships around her. "Shall I wait among these wreckages?"
"Yes. Find a well-preserved wreck and stay inside. Don't come out, and don't use any detection methods. I'll be inside for at least three days, maybe two weeks. I'll come back to you when I get out."
Xuan Yin remained silent for two seconds.
"good."
She didn't ask any further questions.
Lu Sheng nodded. Then, in a flash, he flew deeper into the warship graveyard.
Ten seconds later, his figure disappeared among the layers of wreckage.
Xuan Yin remained rooted to the spot, watching the direction he had disappeared in.
Her expression was calm.
But what she was thinking was—
Where is this person going?
He seemed very familiar with this area. His flight path was unwavering, as if he had been there many times before.
"Have you been here many times?"
Xuan Yin's eyes narrowed slightly.
Then she turned and flew toward a nearby, relatively intact wreckage of a warship.
She needs to wait.
There are also some things that need to be thought through.
