When Lu Ning and his group arrived at the plaza outside the headquarters of the Mist Bureau, a group of exiled demigods were brought over by Bai Yuan through a spatial passage.
Li Yang looked at Bai Yuan and smiled, "Bai Yuan, I'll have to trouble you to guard the base city again."
Bai Yuan opened her mouth, wanting to go with them, but ultimately didn't say it.
After all, Bai Yuan's abilities are indeed more suitable for mobilizing the strong in various base cities when trouble arises.
After arranging for demigod-level powerhouses to guard the base city, the group left Earth once again.
As before, they continued to hunt down the evil gods of various planets.
Lu Ning's choices were Jupiter and Saturn.
Having learned from their previous two experiences, Lu Ning and his group easily killed the two planetary evil gods, and Lu Ning successfully obtained the source of the evil gods' mental pollution.
Afterwards, Lu Ning and his group returned to Earth, where Lu Ning continued to absorb the spiritual pollution from the two Blood Evil Gods.
In this way, Lu Ning and his group quickly destroyed all the diseased planets in the solar system. At the same time, Lu Ning used his spiritual power to manifest new, normal planets.
After Lu Ning and his group destroyed the Neptune Evil God and re-manifested Neptune, they arrived at the edge of the solar system.
Beyond the border, instead of a dazzling starry sky, there was only swirling white mist.
All the exiled demigods fell silent as they gazed at the white mist.
Their emotional fluctuations were somewhat complex.
The mental fluctuations of the Tarlin chieftain emanated: "...Why is there only mist outside your star system?"
Li Yang was somewhat puzzled: "Since the arrival of the Fog Era, the starry sky we've observed has always looked like this, hasn't it been the same for you?"
The exiled demigods looked at each other in bewilderment.
The Void Zerg Queen shook her head and slowly said, "No, at that time the Void Zerg controlled a large area of star systems. During the invasion of the Mist, we suffered repeated defeats, but even after the defeat, when we looked at the starry sky, we still saw other star systems, without the Mist."
"We are the same way."
“We seem to be in a similar situation to you, but back then, the direction of the universe we observed had been completely swallowed by the fog.”
The one who said this was a demigod-level powerhouse from an exiled civilization.
The exiled civilization doesn't seem to be very strong; there are only two demigods present, and the strongest of them is only a mid-level demigod.
Upon hearing the demigod's words, everyone fell silent.
They all considered a terrible possibility.
"I have studied the research records of my race's resistance to the mist. According to my race's research, the mist appears in various regions of the universe, and its location is random. Once it appears, it is extremely infectious and spreads very quickly."
"At that time, our territory was vast, and seventeen misty regions appeared within it. Some of these misty regions were on planets, and some were in the vacuum of space. But without exception, the extent of these misty regions expanded hundreds or thousands of times in just a few years."
"Our research has revealed that the mist seems to have an instinctive desire to devour all matter in the universe. Based on the mist's trajectory at that time, it will eventually devour the entire universe."
The mental fluctuations of the Void Queen echoed among the crowd.
All the demigods fell silent.
"Our group's research at the time also yielded the same result. We had already discovered that many vacuum areas were blocked by fog and could not be passed through."
“Our clan is not large, but when mist appeared in our territory, the starry sky seemed much dimmer than before, and the white mist seemed to have obscured a lot of starlight.”
"..."
The many exiled demigods spoke with increasing heaviness.
Li Yang and the other humans had even darker complexions.
Xuanxu grinned and couldn't help but laugh, "You're not trying to say that this is the only region in the entire universe that hasn't been swallowed up yet, are you?"
The other exiled demigods silently looked at Xuanxu.
Xuanxu's lips twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't bring himself to speak.
Chieftain Tarlin grinned, then said, "Not necessarily? Perhaps there are regions similar to your star system, also resisting those evil gods within the mist?"
"However, in any case, there is probably not much space left for survival outside your star system."
While everyone was talking, Lu Ning silently stared at the thick white fog.
He said calmly, "Wait here for a moment, I'll go take a look into the fog."
Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this.
Then Li Yang asked with some concern, "Uncle, are you going in now? Wouldn't it be too dangerous?"
"Yes, Lord Lu Ning. Even in star systems that haven't been completely swallowed by the mist, there are so many evil god-level planets. There are probably even more evil god-level planets in the mist."
Lu Ning calmly shook her head: "I don't feel there's much danger. If we encounter any danger, I will retreat immediately."
Upon hearing Lu Ning's words, everyone fell silent and stopped trying to persuade him.
Since Lu Ning felt there was no danger, then there probably wasn't any danger at all.
Yan Bing was still a little worried and said, "Please be careful."
Lu Ning nodded slightly: "Yes, don't worry."
He flew towards the white mist, and the other demigods quickly followed.
However, as Lu Ning approached the white mist, he suddenly stopped.
The group of demigods behind them were somewhat confused.
"Lord Lu Ning, what's wrong?"
Lu Ning calmly said, "There is also a barrier here."
He reached out to grab the pale mist that was so close, but only touched a layer of pale light.
The light screen made the exiled demigods' eyes widen.
They were all too familiar with this light screen.
"The barrier outside the Ruins of Return... seems to also exhibit this kind of fluctuation?"
Are the barriers outside the solar system and the barriers of the Ruins of Return similar?
"How could this be? Are these two barriers connected? Were they created by the same entity?"
The mental fluctuations of the many exiled demigods were extremely intense.
They never imagined that the Ruins of Return, the place on which they depended for survival, would be the same as this galactic barrier in some unknown region of the universe!
What a coincidence!
Or is this actually not a coincidence?
These exiled demigods seemed to realize something, and looked at Lu Ning's back with strange expressions.
Lu Ning utilized the efficiency of the Pale Crystal, its special connection with the Tower of Ruins, and his unique abilities...
They hadn't originally thought of it this way, but since the entire galaxy was shrouded in a barrier, outside the barrier was all fog, while inside the barrier was Lu Ning's ancestral star.
This makes it hard for them not to overthink things.
"...Lord Lu Ning, do you know how this thing came to be?"
All the exiled demigods turned to look at Lu Ning.
Not to mention the exiled demigods, even Li Yang and the others looked at Lu Ning with some disbelief.
How enormous would a barrier be to cover an entire galaxy?
Is this really something Lu Ning established?
