A terrifying shadow creature crawled out of the void crack. It only had a rough humanoid shape, and the rest of it was completely covered in shadows. It was similar to the elemental monsters Li Xiang had seen in the game in his previous life.
The shadow creature was very large. It crawled out of the void crack with difficulty, and then knelt down in front of Night Shadow. The two of them talked in the void language for a while, and then the shadow creature suddenly stood up. Its body was so large that it almost covered the sky.
It took a step forward and slashed at the thunderstorm clouds. As its palm, which was larger than some superstructures, fell, the thunderstorm clouds were suddenly covered in layers upon layers of translucent and unreal Void shadowy matter. The thunderstorm clouds that had been raging nonstop a moment ago were now shrouded in shadows like a docile kitten.
The rumbling thunder and lightning struck the void shadow matter and was quickly melted, becoming nutrients for the giant shadow creature.
Only such a strange creature could absorb this violent matter. Even Night Shadow could not get close to the core of the thunderstorm.
Li Xiang looked at all this with his mouth agape. Compared to the giant shadow creature on the screen, the borderline mutants that he had encountered before were like little brothers. They could not be compared at all.
No wonder the disaster and mutants were two different levels. The players had this kind of means that could continuously force the players back for thousands of years. One could imagine how terrifying the disaster that occupied most of the outside world was.
The shadow creature kept absorbing the thunderstorm clouds, and the thunderstorm that had made everyone helpless before was disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Night Shadow stood with her arms crossed. After confirming that the thunderstorm clouds could no longer continue, she took a step forward and fell into the black shadow that suddenly appeared.
"So strong …" At this moment, Li Xiang's heart was only filled with amazement and envy. He came to this world and finally had the qualifications to become a player, but until now, he had not seen the strength of the players. The appearance of Night Shadow made him directly feel the charm of the players. This kind of life was what he should pursue.
As if his silent and dry heart was moistened by water droplets, Li Xiang's body was filled with unprecedented fighting spirit.
The figure that stepped into the shadow lingered for a long time.
After absorbing the thunderstorm clouds, the shadow creature also disappeared into the new void fissure.
The sky cleared up.
The magnificent sunset glow was dazzling.
The broadcast came to an abrupt end at this point as the giant airship began to move slowly. The commanders still had to wrap up some things.
However, at this moment, no one dared to look down on Zhe Yuan and the others who were sitting in the central control room. Instead, they only felt respect and envy from the bottom of their hearts.
Becoming the student of such a powerful player was the dream of countless players.
Zhe Yuan stood up. A strange shadow suddenly appeared on the floor of the central control room. The students immediately bowed respectfully and stood with their heads lowered.
When the group of commanders realized this, they all stood up and stood in a row, saluting to show their respect.
Dark Night Shadow's body slowly rose from the black hole. Her face was still covered by a ball of shadow, and her aura was extremely oppressive. No one dared to approach her.
"Who's in charge?" Her voice was still seductive. A few young commanders almost fell for it. Fortunately, Mai Jie was beside them and pulled them back from the abyss.
Their backs were drenched in cold sweat, and they no longer dared to relax their vigilance.
"I am Lieutenant Colonel Mai Jie." Mai Jie took a step forward and saluted. "Esteemed Magician, what are your orders?"
"Prepare a small airship for me. I want to set off immediately." Dark Night Shadow's tone was cold. It was completely different from when she spoke to Li Xiang.
"Yes!" Mai Jie hurriedly turned around to make the arrangements. He vaguely received news that Dark Night Shadow had something more important to attend to. Dealing with the thunderstorm clouds was just a matter of convenience.
And the most recent matter that she was concerned about was undoubtedly the upcoming trip to the stars.
On the other side, Zhe Yuan was extremely vexed. She had secretly run over to see the face of the student that her teacher had personally taken in, only to be told that he had already left on an airship and returned to the Sky Arena.
She didn't dare to sneak over to the Sky Arena under her teacher's watch. Moreover, she wasn't interested in those mechanical things.
On the small airship.
Julie felt as if she was still in a dream. She had just woken up when she was thrown out of her room. Only after seeing the broadcast did she realize that the person who had thrown her out was Dark Night Shadow.
At this moment, the various forums and group chats on her communication device exploded. Dark Night Shadow was not only a shadow magician, but also one of the twelve masters of the Polar Night. Those who didn't know much about the Polar Night might not know what this meant.
However, anyone with a bit of experience would understand that the Polar Night Master was a symbol of glory. Each one of them was an existence at the peak.
Li Xiang lay on the co-pilot seat, his gaze drifting. It turned out that this world was the same as before. The appearance of such a big figure would be discussed with great interest and all kinds of gossip.
To be able to obtain the favor of a master of the Polar Night Master, and a master Serpent at that, was naturally the best thing. However, it was just as Old Ghost had said.
Talent was talent, and achievements were achievements.
Even if others thought highly of him, if he died prematurely or didn't achieve much in the future, these big figures would gradually lose interest in him. This was an opportunity to soar, but he had to grasp it tightly.
Dark Night Shadow had also said that everything would wait until he finished the ultimate trial.
He had to do his best to climb up and do his best. Only then would he be able to stand in front of Ye Tong and bring her back.
Julie secretly glanced at Li Xiang, but her heart was in turmoil. She could only let this matter rot in her heart. In their eyes, players were synonymous with gods. Recklessly trying to figure out anything about them was courting death.
However, she didn't expect that she would be able to rely on such a thick thigh for this mission. However, she also understood that she and Li Xiang were probably people from two different worlds. After this mission, they would probably never meet again.
"Wow, there's actually a reward of fifty thousand points!" Julie suddenly held up the recorder and laughed. In the end, Black Elephant escaped, but she actually received fifty thousand points as a reward!
The fifty people who set out this time were almost completely annihilated, leaving only her and Li Xiang. She didn't actually do anything, so these points were all for free. However, after this battle, her faith had been completely worn away.
When she was young, there were still many things that she yearned for. However, as time passed, these dreams eventually turned into dreams.
She decided to exchange all her points, then leave the Sky Arena and return to her hometown to be a normal teacher.
After listening to Julie's words, Li Xiang's heart was filled with emotions.
Indeed, the path to becoming a player was too winding. Not everyone could safely reach the end. Most people died along the way. Her choice was very normal.
"Big Sister Julie, where is your hometown?" Li Xiang asked casually.
"Me? You probably don't know. Do you know City 0127? It's a numbered city along the coast. I come from a very beautiful county there, Hou City." Julie controlled the airship as she spoke slowly. "I plan on going back to work at a high school."
Li Xiang's heart thumped. Hou City seemed to have become a distant speck of light in his memories. He wanted to say something, but hesitated. In the end, he only smiled faintly.
The two of them parted at the entrance of the Sky Arena. Julie waved at him vigorously. After making her decision, her entire aura changed. She also became more cheerful and lively.
After saying goodbye, Li Xiang quickly returned to his room on the 40th floor.
He had received a hundred thousand points, half of the original reward. This was understandable.
With this hundred thousand points, he was completely qualified to go to a higher floor. On the giant electronic screen, there was a countdown of ninety hours, fifty-five minutes, and twelve seconds. There were only three days left.
However, he was currently in a good mood. There was no pressure at all. During his trip to the Sky Arena, he had successfully learned magic. At the same time, with the Origin Gas given to him by Dark Night's Shadow, it was only a matter of time before his brain's magic circuits were fully materialized. At the same time, he had also finished replenishing his equipment with Ye Yu's help.
This month's cultivation goal was more than half completed. Even if he couldn't obtain the blueprints for the Winged Chariot, he could still accept it.
Number One was waiting for him in the living room of the room. As soon as Li Xiang stepped into the living room, she pounced on him.
After hearing about what had happened in Blackrock Prisoner Town, Number One had been restless all day. If Li Xiang died, what would she do?
Even she found it hard to imagine why she would have such a strange thought.
However, the youth in front of her had an inexplicable charm that attracted her.
It was as if she could see the light of envy that she had lost in him.
"Have you eaten? I'll cook for you." Number One wiped away her tears and ran to the kitchen in a panic.
Li Xiang smiled helplessly. In his previous life, he had only relied on his sister for survival. Very few people cared about him. Now, he had no idea how to deal with this kind of situation.
Compared to this, as he ate the food that Number One brought over, he began to discuss the matter of going to the 41st to 50th floors with her.
Number One felt like she was in a dream. He had actually made it to this step. The first time he came to the Sky Arena, he had the chance to compete for a ticket to the Galactic Voyage.
"Speaking of which, what exactly is the Galactic Voyage?" Li Xiang asked in a low voice as he chewed on a biscuit.
Number One almost fainted. So this guy still didn't know about this?
She hurriedly explained.
"The Galactic Voyage is a unique spectacle. It's different from most spectacles, which are natural disasters. The Galactic Voyage is magnificent and colorful, and it's not dangerous at all. It will appear in a fixed cycle in the deep space. At that time, countless stars will be arranged in a dazzling and eye-catching manner. Traveling in the Galactic Voyage is like swimming in a sea of stars!"
"That should be pretty, but what's the use?"
Number One rolled her eyes and continued, "Of course it's useful! The Galactic Voyage has another name, the Sea of Illusions! Everyone who is immersed in the Galactic Voyage will see a different scene. Many people have gained enlightenment and sublimation there. Legend has it that the Duke of Wessex's mechanical abilities improved by leaps and bounds after his first Galactic Voyage! "
"Oh, a place of cultivation." Li Xiang's concise summary left Number One dumbfounded.
"You could say that … Anyway, you have to go if you haven't been there before. But to get close to the deep space, apart from the Five Sovereigns' Deep Space Fleets, the only way is the Sky Arena's airship." Number One's face was red, and her voice suddenly became softer. "And, and, if you can go, I, I can accompany you …"
Li Xiang nodded. If Number One didn't have any benefits, she wouldn't have followed him all this time. It was human nature. But from what she said, it seemed like this Galactic Voyage was worth a visit.
