850: Spiders and their webs

Hearing the words Expeditionary Force, Blue Hair and Silver-Hair instinctively exchanged glances, then Silver-Hair spoke first:

"Silver-Blood Human Race, Great Priest, Yin Ling."

As Yin Ling finished speaking, Blue Hair continued:

"Blue-Blood Human Race, Holy Guard, Blue Hair."

Yang Dian looked at Blue Hair with some surprise.

The information collected by the Machina did not include the Blue Hair girl's name.

So he hadn't expected the Blue Hair girl to actually be called Blue Hair.

He had previously thought that Blue Hair was just a title or nickname derived from her Blue Hair.

Lost in thought, Blue Hair squeezed the hilt of her blade, then asked:

"Huaxia Human Race, you came here because...?"

Yang Dian collected his thoughts and smiled:

"We are the Expeditionary Force, the vanguard of the Huaxia Civilization."

"You should understand now, right?"

Blue Hair's hand on the hilt immediately tightened even more:

"So, you are confident enough to confront the entire battlefield?"

She looked at Yang Dian and then said with some curiosity:

"Also, I think I've seen you somewhere before."

"Without absolute certainty, we wouldn't expose ourselves proactively."

"As for me." Yang Dian looked down at Blue-Blood Star, calculated the time, and then said:

"According to Blue-Blood Star's time System, we should have met three years ago."

"Three years ago?" Blue Hair was still puzzled, but Yin Ling had already exclaimed first:

"You are the unknown expert who annihilated the Xiong Pi clan, made Bear Tyrant burn everything, and cursed him to death through the hands of the Heavenly Dao?"

Yang Dian curled his lips into a smile:

"Bear Tyrant did burn everything, but I didn't die."

As his voice fell, Yang Dian changed the subject, leading it in the direction he wanted to explore:

"Tell me about the Heavenly Dao of the Thousand Star Battlefield, and the myths and legends passed down among you since ancient times."

At this point, Yang Dian added:

"If the information we've gathered is correct, the Heavenly Dao of the Thousand Star Battlefield awakened after you joined it, right?"

Blue Hair and Yin Ling exchanged glances again.

Then Yin Ling closed her eyes and sensed for a moment, before nodding to Blue Hair.

Only after receiving approval did Blue Hair speak to Yang Dian:

"Heavenly Dao is merely the name It demands we use for It. It is not the 'Heavenly Dao' born from the thoughts of living beings across all worlds and planets."

"It is a spider."

Yin Ling added:

"A spider that wove a vast net, encompassing the entire Thousand Star Battlefield within its web, possessing almost absolute control over the Thousand Star Battlefield..."

Speaking of this, Yin Ling paused again, as if thinking for a moment before continuing:

"The supreme expert who calls Itself the Heavenly Dao."

After these nine words, she looked at Yang Dian again:

"Of course, that was only in the past."

"The fact that you could survive the death curse and return to the Thousand Star Battlefield, and even modify its existing rules, shows that It is not as invincible as we imagined."

"Spider? Web?" Yang Dian muttered, then continued:

"Besides this information, is there any other information about 'Heavenly Dao'?"

Yin Ling shook her head:

"No."

"Aside from sacrificing ourselves, we have never truly come into contact with It, as if It and I exist in different worlds, different dimensions."

Hearing the last few words, Yang Dian's eyes lit up.

That's it.

This is what he wanted.

'A dimensional lifeform in spider form?'

Lost in thought, Yang Dian mentally called out to the Dimension Butterfly.

'Find that damned spider!'

As the thought fell, a ripple of space-time, imperceptible to ordinary people, instantly enveloped the entire Thousand Star Battlefield, centered on Yang Dian.

Then, the Dimension Butterfly's feedback echoed in Yang Dian's mind.

"Can't find it?"
