The Secret of the Dark Night's Notebook
* Whoosh ~ *
The Gemini Star came to an abrupt stop. It used its small body to hide in an asteroid belt, not making a sound.
Xia Fei put away White Skeleton and quickly jumped out of the exquisite space. He went to the cockpit and used the radar system to search for traces of the Dark Race.
"According to the Dark Night's Notebook, this should be the entrance to the Dark Race's territory. There are usually powerful soldiers guarding it, so it's best if we can sneak in quietly and not be discovered by the enemy. If worst comes to worst, we can summon Jin Xiaoxiao and enter through the dark space. However, the Dark Race has also set up defenses in the dark space, so it'll take some effort to get through. Besides, the dark space is very different from normal space. I wonder if Jin Xiaoxiao has caught up to us," Yuan said.
Xia Fei did not want to be discovered. Even if the Gemini Star could use its speed to shake off the pursuers, it would alert the enemy and make it difficult for Xia Fei to move forward. The best way was still to sneak in.
"The Dark Night's Notebook is right. There are defenses here. Look, those white dots on the radar are the Dark Race's warships, while the red dots are those giant beasts." Xia Fei pointed at the screen.
"With the combined defense of the Dark Race and warships, it'll be very difficult to pass through this space without being discovered. Is there any other way?" Yuan asked.
Xia Fei turned on the warship's stealth system and flipped through the Dark Night's Notebook again. Xia Fei was in a hurry to practice Wanxiang Forging, so he had only skimmed through the book. Now that they were in the Dark Race's territory, it was time to study it in detail.
The Dark Night's Notebook looked very ordinary. Aside from the words, there were also many rough star maps, all hand-drawn. The place Xia Fei was at was called the Tiger's Mouth. Two bright stars were like the teeth of a tiger, and in the middle was the only way to enter the Dark Race's territory.
"It'll take a lot of time if we take a detour, and we might encounter powerful hidden black holes and electromagnetic storms. It seems that the Tiger's Mouth is indeed the only way to enter the Dark Race's territory. It'll be very difficult to go around it," Xia Fei said after studying the star maps.
Although it was hand-drawn, the information in the Dark Night's Notebook was exactly the same as what the radar had detected. It seemed that Xu Kexin, who had written the notebook, was an expert in interstellar reconnaissance.
"Let's take a closer look. If it really doesn't work, we'll use the dark space. Jin Xiaoxiao has a natural familiarity with the path. She should be able to circle around it," said Yuan.
Xia Fei nodded slightly, continuing to look through Darknight's notebook. He had only skimmed through the book before and had not studied it in detail. Now that he had a closer look, he realized that there were many areas that were not quite right.
Is there something missing in the middle? Xia Fei closed the Dark Night Diary and muttered to himself.
"It can't be. Why can't I tell?" Yuan asked curiously.
Xia Fei replied, "There are quite a lot of signs of human activity. Since the Darknight Diary is Xu Kexin's travel journal, it should at least record the places he has been to, as well as how to enter and leave those places, right? Yet, it's mostly just a map, with no personal notes on Xu Kexin's travels. That's very abnormal."
Yuan was slightly startled. "Now that you mention it, I also remember that the entire road guide book is dry, as if it was made up by a machine."
Xia Fei did not say a word, continuing his careful observation.
The Darknight Diary was black in color, made of a mysterious thin metal. The words and pictures on it were all drawn with corrosive ink. Once written, no one could change the content, not even taking a page out.
"It's very difficult to fake a book made of this kind of metal. Could there be nothing fishy about it?" Yuan shook his head, muttering to himself.
Xia Fei smiled. "Nothing is impossible in this world! How could such a mediocre road guide cause so many people to fight over it? Forget the dark race's headquarters and treasures, there's not even a guide to pass through the checkpoints. I refuse to believe that there's nothing fishy about it! "
* Whoosh ~ *
Xia Fei lightly tossed the Darknight Diary into the air. The pages quickly flipped, and under the illumination of the light, Xia Fei saw a strange scene.
Those star maps that were originally unrelated to each other actually formed a vague animation, like an old-fashioned projector!
"So that's how it is!" Xia Fei was stunned, his two eyes bursting with light. "No wonder Xu Kexin used traditional hand-drawn drawings. Turns out that he's an expert painter! He hid what he wanted to tell the future generations in the illustrations on every page! "
* Whoosh! *
Xia Fei tossed the Darknight Diary into the air once more. This book had a star map on every page, and if one flipped through it at the right angle and speed, they would be able to see a continuous flow of images!
In the image was a knife that looked like a lady's hairpin. It was short and delicate, with a mysterious cross pattern on it. A person was holding a hairpin, inserting it into the Darknight Diary!
With the knife in hand, Xia Fei quickly cut open the outer layer of the diary, and indeed, he found a hair-thin knife inside. It was very flexible, but it was not enough to hurt anyone.
"I got it! This is the activation device for the Darknight Diary! "Yuan was a well-read person, so he very quickly identified the use of this hair-thin knife.
"Darknight Diary?" Xia Fei curiously asked.
"Darknight Diary is a method of mental transmission. If you want to let others see some images, but you don't want to be seen by unrelated people, the Darknight Diary will come in handy. It's a special kind of mental transmission. When the Darknight Diary is opened, the person who activates it will receive the image in their brain, just like watching a movie!" Yuan excitedly said.
Xia Fei hurriedly looked for the key socket on the Darknight Diary, and sure enough, there was a very inconspicuous dent on the back of the book, just enough for the hair-thin knife to be inserted!
* Pa! *
The knife was inserted into the back of the book, and there was a crisp sound. Then, a shocking scene happened!
The Darknight Diary automatically closed, turning from a dictionary-thick book into a booklet!
The next second, the black alloy booklet suddenly scattered, like countless fine black sand floating in the air!
* Whoosh! *
The black sand surged, and a magical movie began!
…
"I see." Xia Fei finished reading the Darknight Diary that Xu Kexin had left behind and had a sudden realization. "It turns out that Xu Kexin had not only come into contact with the Dark Race's King, but she was also his teacher, the closest person to him!"
"Xu Kexin is very powerful. She actually found her way into the Dark Race's lair and accidentally became friends with the Dark Race's King. If a normal person didn't have this kind of opportunity, they probably wouldn't even know where the Dark Race's base camp is," Yuan said with a look of surprise.
Xia Fei gritted his teeth. "Aside from the path, what I'm most concerned about is the composition of the Dark Race's warriors. It turns out that they have grasped a power similar to the Law of Darkness, and they also have the ability to travel through dark space. They're definitely very powerful opponents!"
According to Xu Kexin's Darknight Diary, the Dark Race only had one type of law power: the Law of Darkness. Though the name sounded similar to the Demon Race's Law of Darkness, there were many differences.
The warriors of the Dark Race were divided into levels 1, 2, 3, and 4. Level 1 was equivalent to an ordinary Law Warrior, level 2 was equivalent to a Law Sovereign, and so on.
Xia Fei shook his head, puzzled. "I don't understand. The warriors of the Dark Race actually have seven levels! You should know that a level 6 Dark Warrior is equivalent to an Law God, so what's a level 7? Could it be a Creator? "
Yuan sternly replied, "I can't explain that, either. In my memories, Hong Su is very powerful, definitely more powerful than a peak Law God. However, he came from the Cosmic Gate, so there's no telling if his power system is different. As for those people who created the Law Realm, I've never come into contact with any of them. It's like those old monsters don't even exist. They don't live in the Law Realm, nor do they ask about any of the Law Realm's problems."
With a wave of his hand, Xia Fei sternly said, "Don't think about these problems anymore. No matter how powerful the enemy is, we must face them! The old ancestor is still waiting for news. I must reach the territory of the Dark Race as soon as possible and secretly investigate their movements, as well as see if they've hidden any Immemorial Mystical Armaments! "
Putting the Gemini Star into his spatial ring, Xia Fei put some distance between them and then notified Jin Xiaoxiao to bring him to the dark space. Back then, Law God Xu Kexin had secretly infiltrated through the dark space. With Jin Xiaoxiao around, Xia Fei should be able to move much more easily than Xu Kexin. After all, he did not have the Demon Chrysalis to lead the way back then.
"Let's go! Go around this region, "Xia Fei said as he placed a hand on Jin Xiaoxiao's forehead.
After a long and arduous journey, Jin Xiaoxiao was clearly very tired, but this somewhat slow-witted fellow was very excited and did not complain. Moreover, he was very friendly with Furball, most likely because of the battle at the Daynight Feast.
* Whoosh ~ *
Receiving the order, Jin Xiaoxiao quickly led Xia Fei through the dark space.
According to the Darknight Diary, Xu Kexin had wandered around this space for a very long time before he coincidentally entered the back garden of the Anye Clan, the Eagle Eye. From then on, he began his slow journey through the territory of the Dark Race, and Xia Fei planned to do the same.
Though Jin Xiaoxiao was a little slow-witted, he was very smart. Xia Fei sent him the scene from his memories, and after watching it twice, Jin Xiaoxiao indicated that he understood Xia Fei's intentions. He was going to take Xia Fei to the Eagle Eye, the back garden of the Anye Clan.
The dark space also had defenses, and in order to avoid alerting the enemy, Jin Xiaoxiao had no choice but to forgo what was close at hand and choose the more desolate paths.
* Rumble! *
Jin Xiaoxiao forcefully opened up a fork in the road. There was originally no road here, and Jin Xiaoxiao had forcefully made it!
Jin Xiaoxiao carried Xia Fei as he broke through the air, only to come face-to-face with another gigantic Demon Chrysalis. The two behemoths narrowly avoided colliding, and the Demon Chrysalis also had a warrior on its back!
"Xia Fei?!"
"Wu You!"
Coincidentally, the person in front of Xia Fei was the King of Nether Springs, Warlock Saint Wu You!
"I didn't expect to see you here again!" After recovering from his surprise, Wu You pointed at Xia Fei's nose and said, "You destroyed my Nether Springs! You killed my brother! I'll settle this score with you today! Don't run if you have the guts! "
* Whoosh! *
Nether Springs knew how fast Xia Fei was, so he was very worried that Xia Fei would suddenly speed up and run. In his memory, Xia Fei was still the same Xia Fei, and as long as Xia Fei did not run, he would not be a match for him!
Even when Xia Fei heavily injured Nether Springs back then, it was all a trick!
* Rumble! *
Warlock Saint Wu You proudly attacked!
All of a sudden, Wu You, who was in the air, was stunned. This was because Xia Fei was actually calmly looking at him, a strange smile on his lips!
