Chapter 1907: World Gate’s Destination?

He paused for a moment, his gaze sweeping over the shadow where the Mantis Spider had just appeared: "Those monsters earlier were likely attracted by the energy fluctuations from the imminent activation of the Star Crystal or the opening of the ’World Gate’. This indicates that the process is anything but calm, and it might even be accompanied by great risks."Lin Wan’er also calmed down and agreed, "Senior Brother Luo is right. We can’t just see hope and ignore potential dangers. Moreover, even if the World Gate opens, how can we ensure that it leads to where we want to go?"
Su Xiaowan’s little face fell: "Huh? It’s so complicated..."
Luo Qingchen pondered, his fingers unconsciously rubbing his chin, his mind racing.
"Xiaowan, try again," Luo Qingchen looked at Su Xiaowan once more, "Can you get more specific information from that ’whisper’? For example, the specific orientation of the ’coordinates’? The exact time and place the ’World Gate’ opens? Or... is there any way to influence this process?"
Su Xiaowan grimaced, "Senior Brother Luo, just one listen gave me a headache, it felt like a thousand needles piercing. To listen again... I’m afraid..."
Luo Qingchen noticed her pale face and the fear in her eyes, and his heart softened. Indeed, forcibly interpreting such a vast energy message places a great burden on the Divine Soul, and it was already quite an achievement for Su Xiaowan to hear those few key words.
"I’m sorry, I was too hasty." Luo Qingchen softened his tone, "You should rest first and restore your spirit."
He turned his gaze to Lin Wan’er: "Wan’er, let’s find a more concealed and safer place nearby. Since this place might become the center of the ’World Gate’ opening, it won’t be peaceful here soon. We need a temporary base for observation, recovery, and to handle any possible emergencies."
"Okay." Lin Wan’er nodded, her gaze began searching the surrounding terrain carefully.
Soon, they found a naturally formed stone cave under a cliff, slightly away from the lake. The cave entrance was covered with dense vines, and the inside was dry, well-ventilated, and spacious enough to accommodate them.
Settling the still unconscious Bai Ling’er on soft dry grass laid deep within the cave, the three took turns guarding the entrance, while regulating their breath and keeping a close watch on the activity toward the lake.
Time passed slowly, and the light in the forest flowed with the bright and dim alternation of those glowing plants, as if experiencing a unique cycle of day and night.
During this time, Luo Qingchen tried again to use his Divine Sense to explore the ’whisper’ of the Star Crystal, but his results were the same as Su Xiaowan’s; he could only perceive a vast, overwhelming torrent of information that was chaotic and indecipherable. It seemed comprehending such high-level energy communication would require either a specific medium, like Su Xiaowan’s Turtle Shell, or a far superior level of Divine Soul strength than he currently possessed.
After recovering some spirit, Su Xiaowan stubbornly attempted to ’listen’ a few more times, but perhaps due to incorrect methods or excessive exhaustion, she couldn’t gain any more useful information and ended up exhausting herself, finally falling asleep hugging the Turtle Shell with a puffed up face.
Lin Wan’er carefully treated their wounds and attempted to use Heavenly Essence Spiritual Power to encourage the growth of some harmless nearby plants, building a more concealed defense. She discovered the Wood Element Spiritual Energy here to be unusually active, making her magic significantly more effective.
In what appeared to be a peaceful wait, all three carried a heavy concern in their hearts. Hope was right before them, but so too were the shadows of the unknown and dangerous.
After about a ’day’, which is when the light in the forest completed a full cycle of bright and dark, the energy fluctuations from the lake started to change significantly!
The previously rhythmic and gentle ’Starlight Whisper’ suddenly became urgent! The large Star Crystal at the center of the lake began emitting increasingly bright light, with the swirling starlight within it flickering violently as if boiling!
Ripples of energy began to spread across the lake’s surface, as the surrounding Star Energy was frantically absorbed into the crystal!
"It’s happening!" Luo Qingchen opened his eyes abruptly, standing up with a grave expression, and looked toward the lake.
Lin Wan’er also immediately stood up and shook Su Xiaowan awake from her sleep.
"Wha...What? Is it time to eat?" Su Xiaowan asked groggily, rubbing her sleepy eyes.
"No! Look over there!" Lin Wan’er pointed toward the lake.
Su Xiaowan followed her direction and looked over, instantly wide awake!
Above the lake, the mist of stars began to churn and rotate vigorously, forming a massive vortex! At the center of the vortex, space began to twist and warp, presenting a highly unstable state!
Delicate spatial cracks appeared and vanished continuously at the center of the vortex, emitting a disquieting space fluctuation!
Simultaneously, the light from the Star Crystal reached its peak! It emitted a humming noise as if from the ancient times! An incomparably bright and condensed pillar of starlight shot up from the top of the crystal, fiercely piercing into the spatial vortex above!
Rumble!!!
A cataclysmic sound like creation echoed! The spatial vortex expanded violently under the impact of the starlight pillar! A circular Light Gate with a diameter of dozens of feet, shimmering with rainbow light, slowly took shape in midair!
Inside the Light Gate, there was an unfathomable darkness, with countless stars faintly visible speeding past within it, as if it connected to the other end of the universe! An indescribable, vast, and ancient spatial aura spread from within!
