748: Super cosmic civilization
The two, each harboring their own thoughts, arrived in a desolate starry expanse after several teleports.
"One more teleport, and we will reach the next target world."
Yu Tian, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke, and Yang Dian immediately felt a bad premonition rising.
Stopping outside the Formation, Yang Dian casually plucked the threads of fate connecting him and Yu Tian.
Then, his pupils contracted sharply.
In the silent Universe, warships spanned the sky.
He was hiding in deep space.
Yu Tian lay dead outside a verdant green planet.
A creature with a humanoid shape but an exceptionally large head, resembling the big-headed aliens from America's science fiction works, was holding needles and instruments, collecting hair and blood from Yu Tian's corpse to analyze on the spot.
'Yu Tian still has many planet coordinates in his possession.'
'Before obtaining those planet coordinates, Yu Tian can be considered a resource mine; he is quite useful to me.'
'If it weren't for the situation being impossible, I wouldn't watch him die.'
'So...'
Contemplating the scene revealed by fate, Yang Dian's brows gradually furrowed.
'Did we run into an unimaginably powerful civilization?'
'Powerful enough that I only had time to instruct the Dimension Butterfly, or rather, the Dimension Butterfly took the initiative to take me into the deep dimension, and I didn't even have time to bring Yu Tian along?'
Yu Tian, who was activating the Formation, turned back to look at Yang Dian: "What happened?"
Yang Dian tilted his head to think for a moment, then spoke truthfully: "I just have a bad premonition."
Yu Tian frowned and immediately stopped his movements.
As cautious as he was, he did not want to take any risks.
"If that's the case, then..."
Before he could finish speaking, the teleportation Formation, whose light had been gradually fading because Yu Tian stopped his actions, suddenly blazed with brilliant light.
It was only for an instant before the calm space suddenly began to twist.
By the time the two reacted, the twisted space had returned to calm.
Looking around, they had indeed changed locations, arriving from the desolate starry expanse onto a desolate planet.
Gazing at the verdant green planet not far away, a thought suddenly rose in Yang Dian's mind.
'Yu Tian seems to have died here.'
As soon as the thought finished, the space around them flickered a few times like a snowy screen.
Immediately, a squad of beings from an Alien Planet with large heads, three-fingered hands, and dark blue eyes appeared beside them.
"Humans, greetings."
"I am Qi Ling, an interstellar orbital engineer of the Nuo Ling Civilization."
"Welcome to this place."
Yu Tian was stunned: "Nuo Ling Civilization?"
"Doesn't the civilization in this world call itself the Green Star Civilization?"
"There is no civilization called Nuo Ling on the Green Star Civilization."
"Are you also an external civilization that has set its sights on this world?"
After speaking, he was stunned again: "Why did I suddenly say that?"
As his voice fell, an expression of terror appeared in his eyes, but he still spoke involuntarily: "Why did I say what I was thinking?"
"Damn it, what did you do to me!"
Saying this, Yu Tian clenched his teeth tightly.
Through the gaps in his teeth, Yang Dian smelled a hint of rust emanating from Yu Tian.
'Internal bleeding?'
As soon as the thought arose, he felt an inexplicable impact acting upon his body, trying to force him to involuntarily speak his inner thoughts.
Realizing something was wrong, his pupils contracted sharply, and then he unhesitatingly let the Dimension Butterfly take him into the deep dimension layer.
"Beep, beep, beep~"
The very moment Yang Dian disappeared from real space, a piercing alarm sounded from the instruments carried by the Nuo Ling squad.
The Nuo Ling being standing behind Qi Ling glanced at the instrument flashing red in its hand, its eyes flashing with blue light: "Space fluctuation detected, target suspected of entering deep space."
"Space locking in progress..."
"Lock failed."
"Target suspected of entering deep space beyond the 57th layer."
"Contacting orbital headquarters, applying for authorization to use the Stellar-class Subspace fluctuation instrument..."
"Application complete."
"Scanning started."
"Beep... beep... beep..."
"Target location not scanned."
"Target suspected of entering deep space beyond the 67th layer..."
"Alarm... Alarm..."
"Encountered high-level civilization."
"Applying for Macro-descent..."
As the voice fell, the dark starry sky instantly turned crimson.
Yu Tian felt as if the entire world had turned into a piece of freshly melted amber, and he was the insect that had fallen into the amber.
The heavy pressure made him unable to breathe, almost suffocating him.
In a daze, he saw collapsed skyscrapers, twisted steel bars piercing through charred concrete, pointing silently toward the firmament.
"This isn't right."
He stood in place and turned around.
Only then did Yu Tian realize, how could this be a daze?
He was standing in the ruins of a city.
Looking up at the sky, the starry expanse was exactly the same as before.
"So..."
"Did you move the entire ruined city over here?"
As his murmuring fell, a red sun rose from the edge of the ruins, ascending directly into the high sky.
That was the source that turned the world crimson.
"Beep... beep... beep..."
With three sounds that seemed to come from beyond the sky, Yu Tian felt his Divine Soul dim.
When he opened his eyes again, the world had changed.
'The main body, dead?'
Green Star moon, deep dimension layer.
Seeing that a mere ray of crimson light from the red sun in the sky caused Yu Tian to lose consciousness and fall to the ground, Yang Dian couldn't help but swallow hard.
"What the hell is this thing?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his vision blurred for a moment again.
When the blurriness disappeared, his heart began to pound wildly again.
The blurring didn't appear because of anything else, but because the Dimension Butterfly had taken him into a deeper dimension layer.
That is, the 78th dimension layer.
As for why it needed to enter a deeper dimension?
Looking at the eerie red light covering the previous 77 dimension layers, Yang Dian let out a long sigh.
"This must really be an encounter with a Universe-level civilization, right?"
"You have to know that even the Stellar Ancestor cannot reach into such a deep dimension layer."
Amidst his murmurs, the red sun in the sky, along with the city ruins on the moon, abruptly disappeared, leaving only a message echoing in the space.
[Target not locked, suspected visitor from a Super-Class civilization, detection terminated.]
[Welcome, guest from an unknown civilization, to the Nuo Ling Star Domain.]
[You may move freely within the Nuo Ling Civilization, but please do not engage in any dangerous activities within the Nuo Ling Star Domain; otherwise, it will be considered a declaration of war by your civilization against the Nuo Ling Civilization.]
The pheromones that could be captured and understood by any creature disappeared after 10 seconds.
The Nuo Ling being named Qi Ling pulled out tweezers, clamps, and a scalpel from somewhere unknown and walked to Yu Tian's side.
"According to Macro-detection, this life form is vastly different from the pheromones left by the Super-Class civilization life form; they are not from the same civilization."
"Therefore, we will dissect it to attempt to lock onto its home planet."
"Friend from the Super-Class civilization, if you have any objections to our actions, please speak up to stop us."
"As a visitor of an equivalent civilization level, we will respect your wishes..."
