At this moment, when passing through a narrow passage composed of countless spiraling light paths, Wen Shifei's eyes were suddenly attracted by an unusual scene in front of him!

There, within a relatively "calm" ball of pale golden light that bulged like a giant ganglion, was something vaguely encased... solid? Not a flowing path of light, but... metal? Crystals? The outlines of regular geometric shapes loomed in the light!

Moreover, on the surface of that giant ganglion light mass, the flowing light paths seemed to... form a short-lived, relatively stable pattern! The lines of that pattern... Wen Shifei's heart began to beat wildly! It faintly matched a portion of the garbled coordinate fragments that kept replaying in her mind!

"There!" Wen Shifei pointed desperately at the huge ganglion ball of light, his voice hoarse from excitement and weakness, "Core database! The coordinates point there! It's inside that 'ganglion'!"

Lu Cheneng and Yun Zhan looked in the direction she pointed, and their pupils shrank at the same time!

That enormous, pale golden ball of light, beating faintly like a heart, truly emanated more powerful and concentrated energy fluctuations and spiritual radiation than anywhere else! The neural pathways surrounding it were thicker and denser, surrounding and protecting it like loyal guards!

At this moment, as if sensing their gaze and intentions, the massive ganglion light ball suddenly pulsed violently! An even more violent mental impact, like an invisible hammer, slammed down upon the three of them! Simultaneously, the thick neural light pathways surrounding it shot out like a swarm of enraged venomous snakes, lashing out with destructive energy rays, biting towards them! The speed was astonishing!

"Be careful!" Lu Cheneng only had time to push Wen Shifei hard into a relatively concave corner of the light wall next to him!

He himself was struck head-on by two of the thickest neural pathways! A powerful mental shock mixed with physical energy slammed into his chest!

Bang!

Lu Cheneng was struck hard, his body flying backward! The brainwave stabilizer sounded a piercing overload alarm! His throat felt sweet, and a mouthful of blood spurted out! His consciousness was like being struck by a heavy hammer, and it went blank in an instant! The thin mental barrier was shaky and crumbling!

"Chen En!" Wen Shifei's eyes were bloodshot!

At this critical moment, Yun Zhan appeared in Lu Chen's path as if by teleportation! He grabbed Lu Chen's arm and yanked him back behind him! At the same time, facing the terrifying, biting beams of light, the dark blue arc dagger in his hand erupted with an unprecedented brilliance!

He didn't dodge! Instead, he reversed his grip and fiercely stabbed his other arm! Blood gushed out instantly! But the blood didn't drip, instead, it was strangely absorbed by the dagger! The dark blue light on the dagger suddenly surged, burning like liquid blue flames!

"Zhanxue...open the sword!" Yun Zhan's low roar was filled with a kind of resolute madness!

Buzz——!

He hurled the dagger, blazing with blue flames, with all his might. It transformed into a piercing blue lightning bolt that tore through space, instantly piercing through the two nerve beams rushing in front!

Hiss—Boom!

The pierced light path was like a lit fuse, instantly erupting in a blinding blue flame that spread wildly along its structure! Like wildfire, those thick, hostile nerve light paths, burned by the blue flame, let out a shrill scream, like the wailing of billions of souls! The light quickly dimmed, withered, and collapsed!

This sudden, blood-fueled, terrifying attack seemed to have severely damaged the massive ganglion light mass! Its pulse instantly became disordered and weak! The mental shock it emitted also abruptly ceased! The surrounding attacking light paths, like a swarm of snakes without a command, fell into a brief chaos!

"Now! Charge in!" Yun Zhan's face was extremely pale due to blood loss and the burst of power, but a cold light flashed in his eyes as he pointed at the ganglion light ball whose light became unstable due to damage to its core, and even a tiny crack appeared on the surface!

Wen Shifei didn't hesitate at all! She suddenly rushed out from the blind spot, using all her strength to pounce on the huge ball of light! Lu Cheneng endured the blurred consciousness and severe pain in his chest, and with the support of Yun Zhan, he also staggered towards the ball of light!

Wen Shifei's fingers were the first to touch the flowing, burning, pale golden light! The imagined hard touch did not come. The light, like a sticky liquid, sagged inward the moment she touched it! A powerful suction came!

"Catch me!" Wen Shifei turned around and shouted at Lu Chenshang and Yun Zhan!

Lu Chensheng and Yun Zhan grabbed her arms at the same time!

The next moment, the light suddenly contracted inwards! As if being devoured by a giant beast, the three of them were instantly pulled into the interior of the huge, pulsating ganglion light ball!

The strong feeling of weightlessness and the dazzling light made Wen Shifei temporarily lose his vision and sense of direction.

When the light faded and the feeling of groundedness came over her, she found herself in a completely different space.

There were no frantically wriggling neural pathways, no crushing mental shocks. The space was small, a perfect circle. The walls, floor, and ceiling were all made of a pure material that emanated a soft white glow, like the purest crystallization of energy. In the center of the space, a massive, complex structure composed of countless slowly rotating pale blue data cubes hovered, resembling a miniature galaxy. Countless slender, shimmering streams of data flowed and connected between these cubes like stardust.

An absolute, cold, pure sense of "order" permeated the entire space. This was the Lighthouse's core database! A logical sanctuary, completely cut off from the turbulent and chaotic neural maze outside!
