The image is quite blurry, but Baiyiâs silhouette can be vaguely seen.
An incredibly terrifying darkness is relentlessly sweeping towards this direction, as if intending to engulf the entire Dongwu City.
"This is..."
Baiyi frowned, looking at that darkness, feeling somewhat familiar.
He seemed to have seen something similar in some records.
The image suddenly showed some snowflakes, gradually twisting, and another image appeared, with golden light filling the entire crystal ball.
Then the image abruptly cut off, and the crystal ball returned to normal.
"Thatâs all." Luoning pondered and said, "Iâve looked through a lot of information, both in the AI my brother provided and in many ancient texts, but thereâs not much to be found."
"However..." Luoning was somewhat uncertain, "That darkness seems like a marvel..."
Baiyi paused for a moment, his mind flooded with knowledge, and quickly remembered a record.
A world marvel refers to something even gods cannot comprehend, and its impact on the world isnât that significant, hence itâs regarded as a wonderous observational object.
But not all of these marvels are harmless. On the contrary, though most have little impact on the world, they can greatly affect individuals.
This particular marvel that Baiyi found familiar is supposedly a malevolent marvel sealed by the gods, also referred to as a forbidden zone.
It cannot be destroyed or touched, but it devours all living things, allowing them to be reborn inside and then fall into ruin.
Simply put, the thoughts of those who enter are completely fixed, making them feel theyâve returned to their birth, slowly decaying in their imagined ideal world until death.
This is very similar to rebirth.
Except this rebirth is merely a pleasant illusion before death, and as the body begins to decay, the fantasy naturally shatters.
When Baiyi first encountered it, he almost thought he got caught, but remembering the tragic experiences of his childhood dispelled that notion,
Since this fantasy must be a heaven-defying template, also known as Long Aotian, devoid of any setbacks.
His beginning relied entirely on deceit and was constantly bullied, which didnât fit the fantasyâs setup.
Thinking about it, Baiyi felt a bit of a headache. Who released this thing?
Long ago, even Legendaries got trapped and couldnât escape. If this thing reached Dongwu City.... he couldnât imagine how many people would survive.
As for that golden light...
Since Luoning foresaw two entirely different scenes, could it mean two crises, and the Sun Salutation was employed?
Pu Shengzai Seed!
Baiyi felt a bit annoyed, this seed is always causing trouble. Were it not for the Sea Sirenâs appearance being highly beneficial for Dawn, Baiyi would have considered dropping a Sun Salutation into the Undersea Celestial Abyss right now.
All conspiracies could just go to hell.
"Whatâs wrong, brother? Did you think of something?" Luoning was a bit worried, unable to foresee Baiyiâs future, the glimpses she did see were vague.
But one thing was certain, Dongwu City did not fall in this crisis, otherwise she would have been able to foresee the fate of the entire cityâs people regardless of what brought the disaster.
"Itâs nothing, youâre right, it really is a marvel. Let me research it first."
Baiyi said, patting her head, "Luoning is still amazing."
Luoning:....
"Iâm not a kid anymore." She said, a bit embarrassed.
"Yes, indeed, Luoning has grown up, no longer that little pitiable one." Baiyi said, ruffling her hair uncontrollably, "Focus on your cultivation, Iâll handle the rest."
Baiyi said, turning towards the laboratory.
The marvel is indeed troublesome, but knowing about it in advance should eliminate any problems.
From those blurry structures in the image just now...
Baiyi looked eastward, thinking changing the marvel forbidden zoneâs direction might be possible.
[Your creation, Mark·Silkworm Life, has frequently defied the Abyssal Consciousness, causing multilayered chaos within the abyss, leading to the abyssâs affection for you reaching detestation.]
Baiyi paused upon hearing this, surprised that Mark started causing trouble...
It seems the 2.0 version of Silkworm Life is much more destructive than Feiyaâs 1.0 version.
Baiyi suddenly had an idea, since the Abyssâs affection for him is already so low, introducing this marvel into the abyss shouldnât affect him much, right?
After all, he never intended to maintain a good relationship with such a mad and filthy dimension as the abyss.
Thinking about it, he began taking out various potions and legendary-level materials aged over millennia, preparing to create something to attract the marvel.
This is still stuff he "acquired" from Metheusâs herb garden. Baiyiâs herb garden in the Demon Realm is now quite grand, though he did end up killing some of the more delicate ones.
But Metheusâs magic soil is somewhat heaven-defying, providing for plants something akin to throwing Baiyi into soul energy.
Hundreds of legendary materials, worth at least billions of gold coins, making Baiyi quite content when delivering to Galaxy B07, the old man wouldnât show him around the new herb field.
But Baiyi was still very satisfied. After Dianeâs next emergence from seclusion, she should reach Level 69, and it would be time to visit again.
Surely they wouldnât still guard against their granddaughter returning home?
With that thought, Baiyi happily began summoning Mark.
The terrifying soul power of the Holy Soul emitted a slow, special pulse.
With Silkworm Life 1.0, he could only establish short-term cross-dimensional contact through some equipment given to Feiya and transfer a limited amount of items.
But Silkworm Life 2.0 was different, though its potential decreased somewhat, it could be more easily controlled, and Baiyi had added certain backdoors into it.
