A Night of Desperation-Chapter 567: knows One

Three months....

Yu Hong’s mind sank. If Senior Su Dan wasn’t lying to him, then the Mining Star was truly in danger.

"Now that you know the situation, what do you plan to do?" Su Dan asked again. "With your current level, going back is certain death. That’s why your master and martial uncle sent you away. Staying behind is of no use."

"Do you have any suggestions, Senior?" Yu Hong asked after a moment of silence.

"Stay in the City of No Light. It can keep you safe here, but venturing outside would make survival difficult. Your martial uncle has the Red Sky Fruit, but escaping is unlikely." Su Dan sighed, "I’ve seen too much destruction. The key is the decision you make at this moment."

".... There’s no way.

Yu Hong’s mind raced, thinking of all the possible methods. But time was too short. If he had enough time, he could create something like a treasure that could break open a large array and help everyone escape together.

But there were only three months....

And he himself was only at the Nascent Soul stage, far from becoming an Immortal....

"I suggest you don’t go back. Go train, grow. When you reach a sufficient height, reviving them won’t be difficult," Su Dan advised.

"But by then, will they still be themselves?" Yu Hong asked.

"Why wouldn’t they be? Their death only means their bodies dissolve into countless particles, scattered elsewhere. As long as you’re strong enough, you can gather all their particles and reverse their physiological time. Everything will be as it was before. Haven’t I told you? Time is just a measurement term for change;the change of all things is not irreversible," Su Dan explained. ƒ

"What level must I reach to achieve that?" Yu Hong asked, a little depressed.

"You need deep involvement with space-time and cycles. You must first understand micro-level particles that make up everything," Su Dan answered.

"Thank you, Senior!" Yu Hong expressed his sincere gratitude.

Although the distance was great, Su Dan’s words at least alleviated some of the despair in his heart.

All this time, his only choice was to run. Forced by the Source Disaster, he couldn’t stop for a moment. Now he finally had a sect that could help him resist the storm, but soon....

Seeing Quan He’s clueless eyes, Yu Hong knew she couldn’t hear the conversation. After a moment’s pause, he quietly explained the situation to her.

"So what do we do now?" Quan He asked, her face changing after hearing the whole story.

She trusted Yu Hong wasn’t the type to lie, and Su Dan’s existence wasn’t a lie. The key now was what to do about the Mining Star?

"I don’t know." Yu Hong sat down on a chair, wiping his face with his hands. He hadn’t made such a gesture in a long, long time.

Only when feeling powerless and exhausted would he subconsciously do this.

"Let’s go back and see. It’s just three months, right? We can wait. Maybe there will be a turnaround," Quan He said gravely.

"Alright!" Yu Hong agreed. Their small target, strong defense, and weak attraction meant they could wait three months to see what happens.

Immediately, the two said goodbye to Su Dan, quickly controlling the Black Black Spirit to leave the City of No Light, entering the Wind Disaster, and attempting to return to the Mining Star’s location.

But.....

Buzz!

The Black Black Spirit suddenly plunged into a colorful vortex, the surroundings flickering as it entered a dark, boundless cosmic space.

Pale stars slowly rotated around them, emitting a bright white light.

"This isn’t it!" Yu Hong recognized at a glance that this wasn’t the Star System where the Mining Star was located.

He quickly withdrew, re-entered the Wind Disaster, and charged into another vortex that looked similar.

But...

Minutes later.

The Black Black Spirit appeared inside a crimson cloud.

A huge red star in the distance shone brilliantly, releasing terrifying heat and light.

The moment the Black Black Spirit exited the Wind Disaster, its body temperature rapidly rose, with faint orange flames appearing on its surface.

Beep! Beep! Beep!!

The temperature sensors inside the room emitted alarm sounds, and the defense’s Constant Temperature Array began to show cracking red lines. The entire safe house’s walls were filled with spreading red glowing cracks.

"The temperature is too high, let’s go!!" Quan He shouted nervously.

"I’m trying! Something here is sticking to us!"

Yu Hong urgently responded, glancing at the sensors. The upgraded automatic sensing system’s LCD screen showed the external temperature had exceeded millions of degrees.

At this moment, the Black Black Spirit abruptly emitted a layer of Golden Light from the red cloud, breaking free from the invisible bindings. The colorful Wind Disaster reappeared around it, swiftly enveloping it and causing it to disappear.

The beeping alarms finally stopped.

Yu Hong and Quan He both sighed in relief.

"To think there’s an environment with such high temperatures. It seems the temperature control of the safe house is still inadequate," Yu Hong wiped the sweat from his forehead, still shaken.

"What’s going on, can’t we find our way back?" Quan He asked quietly.

"...No, it’s the right direction, but the positions are off once we enter. I suspect the Mining Star is now surrounded and blocked, with a significant shift in location," Yu Hong quickly explained.

He indeed can sense the direction of the Mining Star, but upon entering, it is not the Mining Star, but another place.

"Could it be that this is the work of the Corrupt Immortal?" Quan He suddenly said.

"...." Yu Hong also thought about this point;the Corrupt Immortal’s inexplicable entry into the safe house claiming to strengthen its defenses, now with the safe house unreachable, it’s highly likely it’s a preemptive measure by the Corrupt Traveler to prevent them from foolishly returning.

Both guessed this but were helpless.

The means of a Golden Immortal are not something they, one at Foundation Establishment and the other at Nascent Soul, can handle.

It was quiet for a long time before Yu Hong stood up with a bitter voice.

"Regardless, let’s stay here and wait, three months... perhaps..."

Quan He didn’t speak, but she too carried an inexplicable emotion toward the Mining Star.

Yu Xuezi and Bai Sheng Hei Ying were also quite kind to her. No matter what, there must be an outcome. freewebnσvel.cøm

The two of them immediately fell silent and started cultivating.

With Tai Sui providing vitality, cultivating was not an issue.

Yu Hong now mainly was not relying on vitality to break through;his key to breaking through was to comprehend Micro.

This is critical in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

Thus, they hovered and waited within the Wind Disaster, in the safe house, both of them had just broken through, silently consolidating their cultivation.

The timer on the table kept flashing and the clock on the wall turned circle after circle.

The colorful light outside of the Wind Disaster grew bright and dim, occasionally some unknown thing flashed by or struck the surface of the safe house, producing a clang sound.

The Royal Golden Eye of Yu Hong had long been repaired, and he continued to use the Black Mark to reinforce the safe house.

The safe house’s Black Black Spirit, after many modifications, even excluding the Golden Immortal’s modifications, the current time for a single defense reinforcement had increased to over five months. Absorbed mana was still not a problem;with Yu Hong’s current realm and cultivation, mana could be rapidly recovered, continuously.

Actually, the five plus months of reinforcing the safe house was already Yu Hong’s preparation for the future.

In his heart, the Mining Star, whether successful or not, they might not be able to return.

The Red Sky Fruit would continuously attract successive attacks from Source Disaster, which might also be the key reason the Corrupt Immortal advised them not to return.

In the blink of an eye, over two months had passed.

Deep within the Wind Disaster, among countless colorful threads, a golden ray of light suddenly shot out.

That beam of light, like a swimming fish, shuttled through and slid, quickly and precisely flying to the hidden position of the safe house’s Black Black Spirit.

Swoosh!

It crashed into the glass window.

Then, without resistance, it passed through the window.

Yu Hong and Quan He, who were cultivating, noticed the movement and quickly came to the main hall.

They saw the golden strand suspended midair.

"Long time no see, Zheng Rou, Quan He. I am Feng Xuezi."

From the Golden Immortal, a gentle male voice was transmitted.

Both their faces tightened, and they quickly saluted.

"Master Uncle, how is the situation!?" Yu Hong asked impatiently. "Why can’t I return using the Water Instrument Ball?"

"You should have guessed it;yes, I asked Senior Fu Bai to make an adjustment to seal it off." A voice from the golden strand was transmitted. "Don’t speak;I can’t hear your reply, this is just a recorded message."

This statement immediately silenced both who wanted to ask more.

"Five days after you left, Black Disaster started its offensive early, two Children of the Mother Tree attacked together, fortunately, our defense belt had already taken effect, hiding the Mineral Star System, preventing them from finding it. But Qian Rong of our sect, Senior Fu Bai and I suspected something was wrong, we contacted her master using the contact information provided by Qian Rong, and the result...."

The voice paused.

"The result was that their sect was completely genuine... and they promised that Fu Bai and I would also return with the entire Star System Array. When the time comes, they will bring three more Golden Immortals, with five people combined, enough to relocate the entire Mineral Star System with its defense belt. After testing the power, we agreed."

"Soon, three days later, the Golden Immortal of their sect arrived early, we temporarily repelled Black Disaster together, and relocated altogether. This message is only to inform you, don’t search, the entire Star System has been moved. After we have confirmed safety, we will trace the Water Instrument Ball’s aura to find you. So, you and Quan He should find a place to hide, cultivate well, and wait for our news."

The voice ended, and the golden strand suddenly dissipated, transforming into a gray mist, which swiftly flooded into the storage space of Yu Hong’s Thousand Mountain Seal.

Yu Hong probed mentally and discovered that the two Tai Sui in the Thousand Mountain Seal had inexplicably gained a large amount of vitality, becoming vibrant, not only had they recovered what was previously absorbed, but also additionally enhanced significantly.

"Master Uncle is lying." Quan He spoke at this moment.

"Indeed.... if the Water Instrument Ball can find us no matter how far, then the monsters evolved by Source Disaster can also find us using the same method. So.... the last words were just to comfort us." Yu Hong nodded.

"Then, do we still wait?" Quan He looked at Yu Hong.

Now that it was confirmed the Mining Star had moved, her worries had lessened significantly.

Even if their sect was affected by Heart Disaster, it shouldn’t be an immediate issue because everything evolved from Heart Disaster is real. Since it’s real, it shouldn’t instantaneously be destroyed in a short time.
