Ye Xiao wanted to know what exactly was the cause of Red Star City's catastrophe. When he was about to enter the hall, he heard Gu Tianhao's words. He could not help but feel that there is more to this catastrophe than meets the eye.
Gu Tianhao nodded and first introduced people to Ye Xiao, saying, "First meet these people. They are from the Pill God Tower. This is Yuo Fang, a Level 7 Pill Master, and the Vice President of Pill God Tower. As for these four people, they are also Level 6 Alchemists."
Then he looked at Yuo Fang and others, and spoke, "He is Ling Xiaolong, a Level 6 Formation Master. The most important thing about him is that he is a genius, a monstrous genius who has never appeared before in the history of my Formation God Tower. He is not even seventeen yet but is already a Level 6 Formation Master."
Now this came as a surprise. The five people started taking Ye Xiao more seriously. At first, they only felt that Gu Tianhao is being so respectful because Ye Xiao's status must be very high. But it turned out Ye Xiao is a Level 6 Formation Master and he has yet to turn seventeen.
"If what President Gu said is true, then you are indeed a monstrous genius. It is nice to meet you, Ling Xiaolong." Yuo Fang smiled at Ye Xiao and greeted him politely.
"It is nice to meet you too, Pill Master Yuo."
Only after they became familiar with each other, Gu Tinahao started talking in detail, "You already know about the catastrophe Red Star City faced. This came as a surprise to all of us that day. The entire Red Star City turned into a special spatial zone. Letting aside countless other warriors, we also sent a team of many high leveled formation masters inside to explore, but no one returned. But we at least got to know that the atmosphere inside is berserk. The space and void inside is completely shattered and violent spatial energy is ruling the spatial domain."
"The most shocking thing about this spatial domain is that it is constantly enlarging. The space inside the spatial domain is collapsing rapidly, producing more and more violent spatial energy that condenses at one point and attacks the final layer of the spatial domain, forcing it to expand further."
"We set up multiple Level 7 Great Formations around the spatial domain, forcefully stopping its expansion, this however is not a long-term based plan. The formations have already started breaking down. If we do not take action immediately, who knows what might happen."
"Nevertheless, this is secondary. A few days ago, the President of Pill God Tower who also happened to enter the spatial domain returned. But his condition is not good. His entire body is severally injured and he lost consciousness just after coming out of the spatial domain. Before fainting, he spoke two words 'Time and Space'. We got to know about this from the experts present there at that moment. We have no idea what the President of Pill God Tower wanted to say, but we are assuming there must be a treasure that could affect time and space inside the spatial domain. This kind of treasure should at least be a top Celestial Spirit or even Celestial Destroyer-ranked treasure."
"We can not afford to lose this treasure, so we were planning to send a team of powerful warriors inside to explore. The weakest person should be a peak Minor Saint in that team. However, before we could even send that team inside, an old man who was also a peak Major Saint managed to walk out. He was in extremely bad shape and died soon after walking out. We had no idea about the identity of that man, but when we investigated, he turned out to be a powerful warrior of one of the overlord forces in Star Forest Region."
"After further investigation, we found that the cause of his death is not the injuries on his body but because his lifespan comes to an end. Now, this has us a puzzling shock. It is because that man was only a middle-aged man when he entered the spatial domain. He had lived for more than ten thousand years and had at least a million years of lifespan left. But a few days later, when he came out, he actually died out of old age. This could only mean that the time difference between our world and the spatial domain is too vast. One day outside might be hundreds of thousands of years inside the spatial domain."
"If this conjecture is true, it means all other people who entered must be dead by now."
"From all this information, we concluded a few things. First, there is no treasure related to time and space inside the spatial domain. The meaning behind the President of Pill God Tower's words must be that the time inside the spatial zone is too fast, we should not enter."
"But then again, if this is true, why is it that the President of Formation God Tower was not affected by the time difference? Why he returned with only heavy injuries but no loss of lifespan?"
"Second, there is indeed a treasure related to time and space inside the spatial zone, and that treasure is the source of catastrophe as well as the cause behind the time difference between Morning Stars and the Spatial Domain."
"No matter the reason, the question remains the same. Why President Su, the President of the Pill God Tower, was not affected."
"Then we come with a third option. There is a treasure related to time and space inside, but it does not affect the Spatial Domain in any way. The time inside the Spatial Domain is also not much different than the outside world. As for that Major Saint suddenly became old and died, he might have encountered something, maybe a life-sucking beast or plant, or maybe other dangers which sucked dry him of his lifespan."
"After a lot of discussion, we believe the third option might be the truth. And if it is, then taking out the treasure related to time and space is a must. We must obtain that treasure."
"The Pill God Tower has already prepared a team. We will also leave in two days."
"Ling Xiaolong, I hope you will join the team as well, and explore the Spatial Domain. However, you have to stay clear of the fact that there is more than a 90% probability of never coming out once entered. So the choice is yours to make."
Ye Xiao nodded in understanding. He learned a lot from Gu Tianhao this time and it will help him inside the Spatial Domain.
Ye Xiao had already decided to enter and explore the spatial domain. And if there is really a treasure related to time and space inside, this trip would be more than worth his time and effort.
Ye Xiao took a short period of time in thinking and decide what to do. Then he agreed to enter the Spatial Domain to explore.
Yuo Fang did not say anything nor did anyone raise a question or tried to stop Ye Xiao.
It is because the information of formation masters is widely known. People know that only a Major Saint could become a Level 6 Formation Master and only a Heavenly Saint could become a Level 7 Formation Master.
And as a monstrous genius, Ye Xiao has to have the cultivation base of at least a Minor Saint to become a Level 6 Formation Master.
They are unaware that Ye Xiao become a Level 6 Formation Master when he was only a Chaos Spirit Realm warrior.
But he was indeed a Minor Saint at present. So their thoughts were not wrong.
And since Ye Xiao is a Minor Saint, he is already qualified to enter the team to explore the spatial domain.
So, no one objected to this decision.
And just like that, Ye Xiao became a part of the team to explore the spatial domain.
.....
Ye Xiao left the Formation God Tower with a promise to meet them outside the spatial domain two days later. He was planning to walk around for the remaining two days.
Anyway, distance doesn't matter to the current Ye Xiao. He could simply teleport anywhere in the Star Forest Region. Going to the spatial domain will take him just a second.
Ye Xiao first walked around the Formation God City but this city was a lot dull compared to the Formation God City of Red Sky Region.
Ye Xiao released his Divine Sense and covered the entire Formation God City. He did not find anything worth his time here. He also tried to see if he could find Xu Lingzi and others but was surprised to not see even their trace.
It seems that they have already left the Formation God City.
But then again, it was not a surprise. Xu Lingzi is an Origin Fusion Sovereign Realm warrior. With her strength, she could go anywhere in the Land of Morning Stars in a very short period of time. She might even cross the Formation God City with just one step.
