"Chenxing!" Xu Shuangyao's heart tightened instantly, forcing all her attention away from the cracks and larvae! She frantically tried to comfort the struggling child in her arms. Icy blue star flames, ignoring her own weakness, madly rushed towards Chenxing, trying to suppress the raging power within him. "What's wrong? Don't be afraid! Mommy is here! Don't be afraid!"
However, this time, her comfort and strength were like a drop in the ocean, completely ineffective! Chen Xing's pain seemed to stem from a deeper level, strangely resonating with the dark purple aura emanating from the cracks outside and the greedy thoughts of the larvae!
"Hungry...hungry..." An extremely weak, crying, yet extremely clear fragment of thought, like the cry of a newborn bird in a storm, sounded suddenly and directly in the depths of Lin Mo and Xu Shuangyao's minds!
It was Chen Xing! He was expressing himself with his newly budding spiritual power!
"Bug..." Another clearer fragment of thought followed, carrying with it the instinctive, directional desire and... greed of a new life! "Bad... delicious..."
Lin Mo and Xu Shuangyao's bodies froze at the same time!
Hungry? Bugs? Delicious?
Their gazes instantly met, each witnessing the utter shock and absurdity in the other's eyes! Chen Xing...was actually expressing a desire to devour the terrifying "Sky Devouring Phantom Leech" larva deep within the rift?! How could this be possible?!
At the moment when the two of them were shocked and their thoughts were stagnant due to the impact of Chen Xing's incredible idea -
Sizzle——!!!
A dark purple beam of light, the speed and destructive power of which are indescribable, was like a pair of cold eyes opened by the universe itself. Without any warning, it suddenly shot out from the depths of the tumbling nebula outside the "Cradle of Glimmer", from a certain undetectable distant coordinate point!
It ignored the distance and the turbulent energy currents, locking onto the fragile boundary wall of the "Glimmer Cradle" with incredible precision, which was covered with cracks, especially the newly appeared huge cracks! Wherever the beam passed, space was like a line erased by an eraser, leaving behind a straight, empty track that exuded the aura of annihilation!
The goal—destroy the shelter! Wipe out all life within! Especially... that newly born "high-dimensional larva" that displays extraordinary potential!
Time seemed to be stretched infinitely.
That dark purple beam, imbued with the will of absolute annihilation, felt like the embodiment of death, leaping the final distance at a speed beyond thought. Its icy edge had already pierced the souls of Lin Mo and Xu Shuangyao! Chen Xing's agonized cries in Xu Shuangyao's arms, along with her chaotic thoughts of "hungry... bugs... delicious...", shredded their shattered nerves like a shrill background noise. Within the rift ahead, the larvae of the "Sky Devouring Phantom Leech" stirred slightly at the terrifying pressure of the annihilation beam, their aura of greed growing stronger. Under attack from both within and without, the rift wailed in despair, its spiderweb-like lines spreading wildly. The entire "Cradle of Glimmering Light" resembled a glass cup struck by a sledgehammer, poised to crumble completely at any moment!
There is no room for thinking.
There is no time for trade-offs.
Only the protective instinct imprinted at the bottom of life is roaring wildly!
"Walk--!!!"
Lin Mo's roar, like the roar of a dying beast, drowned out Chen Xing's cries and the crackling of the boundary wall! The dark gold flames and silver-white mark of order in his left eye burned to the extreme at this moment, even drowning out the remaining scarlet from the pollution in his right eye! All his strength, all his will, all his potential, was completely ignited, squeezed, and detonated in this roar!
His only remaining right hand, which was covered with cracks, did not reach out for the cracks or the deadly larvae again. Instead, he suddenly pulled back, spread out his five fingers, and with a resolute will to tear the universe apart, fiercely inserted it into the already fragile space structure beside him!
Swish——!!!
Like cloth being instantly ripped apart by the sharpest blade! Space, torn apart by Lin Mo's concentrated life force, uttered an unbearable, soul-shaking scream! A dark, unstable crack, its edges swirling with violent spatial turbulence and chaotic colors, was forcibly torn open by his bare hands! Across the crack lay an unknown, twisted, desolate starscape!
This is the passage to an unknown way of survival, but also a dangerous place that swallows everything!
The backlash from tearing through space was like millions of steel knives piercing Lin Mo's body in an instant! The cracks on his body instantly widened, and dark golden stardust gushed out like blood. The light in his left eye suddenly dimmed, like the last flicker of a candle in the wind! He maintained the posture of tearing through the cracks, his body shaking violently as if all strength had been drained, but he was like the strongest reef, nailed to the spot!
Almost at the same moment the crack appeared, Lin Mo's left hand, which was covered with his own dark gold stardust, pushed towards Xu Shuangyao beside him and Chen Xing who was struggling in pain in her arms with an irresistible force that contained endless attachment!
"Take him away--!!!"
The force was precise and violent! Xu Shuangyao felt an irresistible force slam into her back, instantly scattering the faint star flames protecting her body! She and the Chenxing in her arms were like stones thrown from a catapult, flying involuntarily towards the newly torn space crack, which was rolling with chaotic turbulence!
“Lin Mo—!!!” Xu Shuangyao’s icy blue pupils were instantly filled with terror and a tearing pain! She only had time to let out a heart-wrenching scream before her body was uncontrollably swamped by the distorted light and shadow! In the instant before she was completely swallowed by the spatial turbulence, her last sight was Lin Mo’s resolute back, covered in cracks and surging with dark gold, yet still clinging to the cracks, like a blood-soaked god of war, standing in the path of the annihilation beam! She could even feel a fragment of her armor’s shoulder, torn apart by the immense force, its cold touch lingering in Lin Mo’s pushing palm!
