Chapter 509. He Alone Is Enough, the Edge of the Starfield
There was a smile on Jiang Ningxian's face. She knew what Lu Yuan was thinking.
They had spent five days traveling to the Teleportation Dao Platform, and now they had arrived. Next, they could use the Teleportation Dao Platforms to head to the Thunderflash Starfield.
When Lu Yuan heard this, a trace of doubt surfaced in his eyes.
A Dao Platform?
He clearly had not seen anything resembling one.
This planet was not large, about the same size as the moon. In his perception, there was nothing special here apart from yellow sand.
However, he soon realized something and looked at the land before saying, "So what you mean is that this planet itself is the Teleportation Dao Platform?"
"That's right. The entire planet is," Jiang Ningxian said, then continued explaining.
"How could something that crosses endless distances be simple? A Teleportation Dao Platform cannot be casually destroyed. This planet contains special power and methods left behind by the sages. It is far more than it appears on the surface."
Hearing this, Lu Yuan nodded. What she said was indeed correct.
The Teleportation Dao Platforms were very important to the beings of this universe. Without them, crossing starfields would not be possible.
Although few people would choose to destroy a Teleportation Dao Platform, who could guarantee that no such beings existed?
The reason he sensed that this place could normally accommodate life was also because special methods had been applied to it.
After traveling all this way, Lu Yuan had come to understand something. Planets incapable of accommodating life looked terrifying, but in reality, they were very fragile.
With his current cultivation, he could destroy them outright. But planets, whether Earth or any other ones in the universe, that could accommodate life were completely different.
Fragile life could be casually slain, but destroying an entire planet was impossible even for a Supreme Immortal.
Lu Yuan was not clear why this was the case. Perhaps it was because the existence of life conformed to some rule of this universe, granting it an unseen protection.
The Teleportation Dao Platform before him was more or less in the same situation. One of the original intentions behind its creation was that it could not be casually destroyed.
With such thoughts in mind, Lu Yuan immediately asked again, "Then how should this Teleportation Dao Platform be used?"
This was something he did not know. Ever since leaving Earth, he had been very curious about many things and had been using his own perspective to understand the wider universe.
"It is actually simple. You only need to pour your own power into this planet. However, to activate it, one must be at least in the Sage Realm, because only those in the Sage Realm can survive in the universe.
"Also, the more power you pour in, the farther the teleportation distance will be. So next, we need to act together."
Jiang Ningxian did not waste words and explained how to use the Teleportation Dao Platform. Then she exchanged a glance with Jiang Haokong beside her and reached out a hand.
She pressed it firmly against the ground.
Buzz, buzz, buzz.
As the siblings poured in their power, a powerful aura wrapped around the entire planet.
Lu Yuan also discovered that runes were suddenly appearing in the void.
The dozen or so Jiang Clan disciples traveling with them also joined the siblings in pouring in their power.
The runes in the void grew more and more numerous.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan knew he could not keep watching. He crouched down and joined the others.
"The more runes are activated, the farther the teleportation distance. If the runes can cover the entire planet, that means we can cross an entire starfield. But with our strength, we probably cannot reach that level. Crossing half a starfield would already be good enough."
Jiang Ningxian explained. She knew Lu Yuan was unfamiliar with these things. Thus, along the way, she explained whatever they encountered so he could gain a clearer understanding.
Lu Yuan merely nodded. Then he murmured to himself, "So if the entire planet is covered, we can cross one starfield?"
He felt that if that was the case, perhaps the time needed to reach their destination could be shortened.
Immediately, Lu Yuan exhaled softly, then poured the vast power within him into the earth.
Rumble.
In an instant, a violent peal of thunder appeared in the sky. The earth began to tremble, and a powerful aura surged out.
Jiang Ningxian and her brother, who had still been pouring in their power, froze when they sensed that immense force.
Then they looked into the void, shock surfacing in their eyes.
After Lu Yuan poured in that power completely, endless runes rushed straight into the sky. In an extremely short time, they covered the entire planet.
Yes. The runes covered the entire planet. The space overhead was almost completely enveloped by the void runes.
For a moment, the siblings looked at each other in astonishment.
"Sister, I feel like from start to end, he alone would have been enough. The two of us acting was entirely unnecessary." In the end, Jiang Haokong squeezed out these words with a wry smile in his voice.
He knew Lu Yuan was strong, so strong that it had reached a terrifying level. But he had originally thought he could still imagine it, still estimate it. However, it seemed that his thoughts back then had been utterly naive.
And to think he had once wanted to compare himself with him.
Jiang Ningxian also did not know what to say. In the end, she merely sighed. "At least, we can reduce the time we spend on the road."
As her voice fell, countless void runes wrapped around the entire planet.
Space shook without cease, and the planet radiated an extraordinarily dazzling light. It was brighter than some stars.
In the next moment, the light vanished completely.
Lu Yuan and the others vanished along with it.
This time, they had left the Milky Way Starfield.
It took only an instant.
When Lu Yuan once again saw the scene before him clearly, he realized that they had arrived on another planet. This planet closely resembled the previous one. Clearly, it was also a Teleportation Dao Platform.
He had already learned from Jiang Ningxian that to cross from the Milky Way Starfield to the Thunderflash Starfield, they needed to pass through four or five Teleportation Dao Platforms. This was only the first.
So they still had to continue.
Just like that, the group continued crossing starfields and traversing the void, heading toward the Thunderflash Starfield.
This would take time. Originally, according to Jiang Ningxian's estimate, it would take more than a month.
But because Lu Yuan was too powerful, he could use the Teleportation Dao Platforms to cross an entire starfield, cutting the time in half. This time, they finally arrived at the edge of the Thunderflash Starfield.
