523: Dimension Battlefield
Under the scorching sunlight, Yang Dian stepped into the spatial interlayer, dodging the direct beam.
He could hide, but the Immortal Capital could not.
Watching the light beam directly penetrate the Great Yu Immortal Capital's Formation barrier and converge on the Golden Luan Hall of the Immortal Capital's Heavenly Palace, instantly melting the Golden Luan Hall into magma, Yang Dian's pupils slightly contracted.
"It can directly penetrate the Great Yu Immortal Capital's Formation barrier?"
"Because it's natural light, gathered by a 'magnifying glass,' it belongs to natural energy and not the extraordinary attack methods of Cultivators?"
After having Zero record this scene and sending his guesses and thoughts to Laogong Bai, Yang Dian turned his gaze to the other end of the sky.
Exactly one thousand li above the ground, a massive planet appeared, simultaneously not of this place yet present within it.
The planet had a diameter of about twenty thousand kilometers, with mountains like ink, vast lakes like seas, countless flying birds and exotic beasts. One after another, colossal vessels, over ten kilometers in length from bow to stern, resembling ancient Chinese Tower Ship (tower ships), launched from high mountains, cliffs, and precipices, raising their fiercely unfurling sails and soaring into the sky.
"Is this Chongming Star?"
Muttering, Yang Dian then looked to the other side, where, also a thousand li from the ground, a star with a diameter of about seventeen thousand kilometers appeared, seemingly reachable with just a light leap.
"This must be Taicang Star, then?"
"So, this is the Dimensional Battlefield?"
With a thought, the Dimension Butterfly carried Yang Dian to beyond the heavens.
From the far reaches of space, one could see three planets of varying sizes arranged in a 'pin' character Formation in the Universe, rotating and orbiting each other.
If one mastered spatial power, they could also see the spatial magnetic fields of the three planets tightly entangled, with each containing a part of the other.
Aside from Azurewave Star, the other two planets were both illusory and real.
Illusory, in that what appeared in Yang Dian's eyes were merely their spatiotemporal projections.
Real, in that they had truly crossed immense distances and 'approached' each other.
With just a thought, even ordinary people could, through the special spatial magnetic field generated when the three planets intertwined, take a light leap and jump to the other two planets.
Of course, whether one could reach the other two planets was one thing.
Whether one could survive on those planets was another.
"Is this the Dimensional Battlefield?" he mused again, then remembered Ghost God Star.
What did the Ghost God Guide say?
The Dimensional Battlefield that Ghost God Star entered was a battlefield with over a thousand planets.
Thinking of those thousand planets crammed together, with 'today you fight me, tomorrow I fight you, the day after tomorrow I team up with you to fight others, the day after that I team up with others to fight you, and the day after that I get backstabbed by others in a battle with still others,' Yang Dian felt a bit numb.
That scene was too chaotic.
One glimpse reveals the whole picture.
Taking the current situation as an example.
At this very moment, the Lesser Star God, holding a magnifying glass, targeted the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty's Heavenly Palace.
The Heavenly Palace contained a large amount of Yu Tian's Qi, and the Lesser Star God believed that the wicked Yu Tian was inside the Heavenly Palace and wanted to burn him to death.
In addition to using a super magnifying glass to focus the scorching sun's rays and burn the Heavenly Palace, the Lesser Star God also dispatched a large number of Silicon-based life forms to attack Chongming Star.
Yes.
That's right.
It was Chongming Star.
It had its sights set on the giant banyan tree on Chongming Star, which was one hundred thousand meters tall, with a canopy spanning over one hundred thousand meters in diameter, covered in yellow leaves, and wanted to transplant the banyan tree onto itself.
As for the Cultivators of Chongming Star.
While battling the Silicon-based life forms, they were also in a standoff with the Great Azure Cultivators.
Normally, a fight would have likely broken out.
But now, due to the presence of Azurewave Star and the Lesser Star God, both factions were relatively restrained.
If the plot continued to develop this way, Yang Dian felt there was still a possibility of them joining forces.
Of course, the prerequisite was that the Lesser Star God slacked off, and, like with Lingwen Star, only dispatched a few Silicon-based life forms to deal with the three stars of Great Azure, Chongming, and Azurewave.
It would not personally conquer the planets, nor summon the Great Star God to directly sweep away everything.
"They all say Jinxi North is a mess."
"If this Dimensional Battlefield truly erupts, it will only be worse than Jinxi North, right?"
Turning his head to glance at the Lesser Star God, who, feeling that burning the Heavenly Palace with one magnifying glass was a bit slow, raised three mountain-like 'little hands' and took out three super magnifying glasses to shine on the Immortal Capital's Heavenly Palace, appearing somewhat abstract, Yang Dian rubbed his temples before flying back to Azurewave Star.
This time, however, he didn't go to the Immortal Capital.
Instead, he arrived outside a spatial node leading to a Blessed Land, on the eastern sea cliff of Azurewave Star.
Looking at the somewhat unstable spatial node before him, Yang Dian instinctively flicked his finger.
"Because the Star Core shattered, the subsidiary spaces attached to Azurewave Star are becoming unstable?"
"What will happen in the end?"
"Will it fall into the dimensional rift, or return to its original position?"
"If it returns to its original star system..."
His thoughts swirling, Yang Dian had the Dimension Butterfly stabilize the spatial node, then stepped into the Blessed Land.
Time and space shifted.
A complete planet appeared in Yang Dian's eyes.
"A planet whose Star Core has been harvested and completely conquered by the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty?"
Standing high in the sky and sensing the surrounding environment, Yang Dian raised an eyebrow again.
Unlike the Lizardmen Alien Planet, which still had Spiritual Qi after becoming the Wuhou Grotto-heaven, this planet, which had become the Blessed Land of Azurewave Star, was already a Spiritual Qi desert.
Yang Dian extended his senses to their limit, but could not detect any Spiritual Qi.
The Spiritual Plants, Spiritual Objects, Spiritual Herbs, and even Yao Beasts that might have once existed in the Blessed Land had degenerated into ordinary plants, minerals, birds, and beasts.
Although he had thought of this scene more than once, every time he witnessed it, Yang Dian would still exclaim:
"Yu Tian is truly ruthless!"
"He really doesn't leave any opportunities for others."
Amidst his emotion (exclamations), he followed a thread of fate and soon arrived inside a grotto hidden deep in the mountains.
At this moment, it was deep night in this Blessed Land, but the grotto was still ablaze with firelight and bustling with human voices.
Stepping into the mine, a pungent odor immediately assailed Yang Dian's nostrils.
Holding his breath, he reached the deepest part of the grotto. Seeing a plump woman with three scars on her face laboriously carrying firewood and placing it under the stove to begin boiling saltpeter, Yang Dian couldn't help but praise:
"The dignified Great Yu Empress, to survive, actually hid in a Blessed Land and disguised herself as a middle-aged woman boiling saltpeter."
"If those saltpeter boilers outside knew they once shared a cave with you, I wonder what they would think."
Ling Ji, hearing the sudden voice, immediately froze.
Then she put down the firewood on her back and turned around.
As she turned, she transformed back from the middle-aged woman into the extraordinarily graceful Great Yu Empress:
"I didn't expect you would still find me..."
