224: Chapter 224 Saint-Rank Civilization
The ancient Void Realm is eternally desolate.
Behind a wormhole, naturally, lies another wormhole.
At this moment.
A small team was standing by in the surveillance hall of the wormhole base.
"Captain, the wormhole has opened!"
The team member in front of the monitor shouted nervously.
For quite some time, the wormhole had been triggered frequently, causing a massive loss of energy and making the entire wormhole somewhat unstable.
Such a strange situation naturally caught their attention.
"Everyone, be on alert! Furthermore, if the situation goes wrong, retreat immediately!"
The captain's expression was serious.
According to their analysis, the previous anomalies in the wormhole were likely caused by an Astral Behemoth.
Moreover, the base on the other side could no longer be contacted; it was estimated that they had already perished.
Astral Behemoths roam the Void Realm and can naturally sense the special energy of wormholes.
Many Astral Behemoths possess spatial talents, and the spatial energy emitted by wormholes is like a natural snack to them.
Although attacks on wormhole bases by Astral Behemoths are not common, they are not unheard of.
"Yes!"
Everyone answered loudly.
Astral Behemoths are incomparably powerful, and only those at the saint-grade can deal with them. These stationed squads are far from being a match for them.
They hadn't run away at this moment partly due to their sense of duty, and partly because Astral Behemoths are generally massive in size and cannot easily pass through wormholes.
In fact, some Astral Behemoths, after entering a wormhole, struggle continuously and consume vast amounts of spatial energy, causing deviations in the wormhole's transmission.
The Cosmic Union has discovered the severed bodies of Astral Behemoths many times.
Those behemoths were caught in the Void Realm due to transmission deviations within the wormhole.
"Attention, the wormhole Peak has reached the transmission threshold!"
"Attention, the wormhole Peak has reached the transmission threshold!"
"Attention, the wormhole Peak has reached the transmission threshold!"
"Transmission initiated!"
...
The surveillance personnel issued warnings continuously.
"Attention everyone, activate the defense cannons!"
"Attention everyone, activate the defense cannons!"
"Attention everyone, activate the defense cannons!"
The garrison captain immediately shouted.
For a moment, everyone became busy.
The defense cannons of the wormhole base were set up.
Rows of cannon barrels were immediately aimed at the wormhole space.
Some soldiers even put on their combat armor, preparing for space combat.
Under everyone's nervous gaze, they suddenly saw the pale blue wormhole shrink abruptly, followed by a flash of light.
Swish, swish, swish!
Immediately, all the cannon barrels began to move, automatically locking onto the enemy.
However.
A scene that shocked everyone appeared.
The massive Astral Behemoth that everyone expected did not appear.
Directly in front of the wormhole space, what appeared was actually a human figure.
The boundless Void Realm and the pale blue wormhole distorting space were breathtaking.
And in front of this, a human figure was floating quietly.
Ji Yebai frowned slightly.
He actually felt that he had been locked onto.
Sweeping his gaze, following the sensation of being locked onto, he precisely spotted the base stationed in the distance.
Inside the base.
Seeing Ji Yebai appear alone in space, everyone was shocked.
They knew all too well what this meant.
The next moment.
The captain's face turned pale. He slammed open the communicator and yelled hurriedly, "Disengage weapons, disengage weapons..."
Upon hearing the captain's roar, everyone suddenly snapped out of it.
They immediately scrambled to shut down the weapon System.
Everything that happened in the base hall was naturally seen by Ji Yebai.
Ji Yebai smiled slightly, then took a step, and his entire person vanished from the spot instantly.
Seeing Ji Yebai disappear from the monitor, the captain let out a long breath and collapsed onto the ground.
"That was close..."
They had almost launched an attack on a Saint Venerable.
The consequences of that—let alone a small captain of a wormhole garrison base like him, even their direct superiors could not withstand the wrath of a saint-grade.
Even after that saint-grade finished venting their anger, the Cosmic Union would still punish them.
...
In the Void Realm, beneath the stars.
Ji Yebai strode forward.
He just smiled slightly at the earlier episode and did not take it to heart.
"I hope I didn't scare them!"
Ji Yebai thought of the captain's performance just now and felt a slight sense of emotion.
To this day, he increasingly felt the gap between space-faring lifeforms and planetary lifeforms.
Previously, he hadn't quite understood the Cosmic Union's special treatment of space-faring lifeforms.
But now, he felt it very deeply.
Becoming a space-faring lifeform didn't just mean an extended Lifespan.
The key was the immense power of space-faring lifeforms.
Whether it was a saint-grade or an Astral Behemoth, any movement they made caused a massive commotion.
Don't underestimate such a commotion; even if it was just the aftermath of an attack by a space-faring lifeform, the aftermath alone was enough to destroy conventional forces or civilizations.
This point.
He felt it even more deeply after encountering that giant worm.
Although the battle between him and that giant worm was short-lived.
The power of every move and style far exceeded the outburst he had displayed when killing the demons on Guanglan Planet.
Especially the Yin-Yang Life and Death move; its power was unimaginable, far beyond the Vermilion Bird split that had burned Guanglan Planet back then.
Yin-Yang Life and Death was a technique that utilized the rotation of the Yin-Yang Two Qi to obliterate everything.
All things in the world are evolved from Yin and Yang.
Therefore, everything can be obliterated under the rotation of Yin and Yang.
Time passed minute by minute.
Ji Yebai increased his speed again, rushing toward his destination according to the data provided by Gu Shan.
"Almost there!"
Ji Yebai paused slightly, recalling the star System coordinates provided by Gu Shan, and estimated his journey.
"Almost two months have passed since the abnormal information was monitored. I hope the civilization there is alright!"
Ji Yebai looked up and gazed at the Star Domain in the distance.
Neili Star Sector.
The Neili Star Sector is a medium-sized Star Domain.
Its scale and size far exceed the 357 Star Sector.
Here, there even exists a saint-grade civilization.
It's just that this saint-grade civilization had ultimately declined; the civilization's saint-grade Cultivator had perished.
According to the records in the data.
This saint-grade civilization was the undisputed overlord of the Neili Star Sector.
Ten thousand years ago, a saint-grade was born, and the civilization reached its Peak.
Unfortunately, about five thousand years ago, an Astral Behemoth wandered into the Neili Star Sector.
For the safety of the entire Star Domain, this saint-grade directly perished together with the Astral Behemoth.
"According to the data, the news of the abnormal aura appearing in the Neili Star Sector has already been notified to this saint-grade civilization!"
Ji Yebai hesitated slightly.
A saint-grade civilization, after all, once possessed a saint-grade Cultivator; they should have some means.
Plus, the Alliance had already warned them two months ago.
It should be unlikely that a tragedy of civilization destruction would occur.
"With precautions in place, the saint-grade civilization should be able to handle the demon incident independently, right?!"
A thoughtful look appeared in Ji Yebai's eyes.
However, whether it had been handled or suppressed, he still had to make the trip.
Demons are extremely cunning and possess extremely strong vitality.
They far exceed conventional lifeforms; ordinary means simply do not work.
Whether there are any hidden dangers can only be investigated clearly by utilizing the power of the Law.
