Chapter 417: Man-made Accident

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The stars were unchanging, and everything seemed to have come to a stop.

Chen Yiming maintained his super perceptive state and looked up from time to time to observe the progress of the space-travel passage.

“Soon, soon.”

As time passed, it decreased from a quarter to a fifth, and gradually to a tenth.

The blue planet was gradually returning to its original state.

That was an era of relative peace. Conflicts and wars mostly occurred among humans. Large countries fought with large countries, large countries fought with small countries, and small countries fought with small countries.

This was unlike during the full-scale invasion of the otherworld, when everyone was worried that one day, humans would have to give up most of the cities and hide in a few safe places.

It was even more unlike the time when the black tide was about to descend, when there were a large number of people in despair all over the world who were easily lured into becoming mutant humans.

…

Days passed.

The interval between the radar-like spatial ripples decreased again.

At some point, the last spatial rift gradually closed, which also meant that the last space-travel passage had disappeared.

At this point, the connection between the blue planet and this galaxy had been severed, and it was very difficult to establish a direct connection with it.

In the end, the enemy this time was only approaching this part of the galaxy and could not arrive in time.

“It’s my turn to take the initiative to attack.”

Chen Yiming muttered, and his figure disappeared. He left behind a faint spatial fluctuation, and chased after the source of the radar-like spatial ripples.

For someone like him who was extremely sensitive to spatial fluctuations, the enemy’s radar was simply telling him its location.

…

In the starry sky, a silver spaceship flew past.

“Buzz…”

Spatial ripples spread out into the void from the spaceship.

At this moment, three days had passed since Chen Yiming took the initiative to attack.

Here, the coordinates of the galaxy were calculated in terms of light years away from their destination. It would officially change from two digits to single digits, and they would reach their destination soon.

In the spaceship, everyone smiled.

“Boss.”

“Although this guy who dared to attack the star spirit chose a relatively remote area, he definitely didn’t expect us to come so quickly.”

The bald man had a confident expression on his face.

The middle-aged man in black armor wrapped his arms around himself and did not reply, but nodded.

Although this spaceship that could emit spatial ripples was not big, it was abnormally expensive. It was considered a high-end item.

Even at the level of a god, there were very few people who specialized in spatial abilities. Therefore, such a spaceship could be said to be a weapon used for pursuit, investigation, and travel.

If not for them owning this spaceship, they would not have been issued this mission.

On the surveillance screen, the image of a humanoid assistant appeared, and its programmed voice rang out. “According to the spatial ripples, there are five planets that can support life at the destination. They are all low level cultivation worlds.”

“Among them, there are no longer any living creatures on four planets. Only one planet still has creatures living normally on it.”

“As we have yet to receive a response from the star spirits, our initial judgment is that in the five worlds, the star spirits have all been killed. The identity of the perpetrator is unknown.”

The spaceship’s artificial intelligence assistant reported the conclusion the central processor had come to after analyzing the data.

When everyone heard this, their facial muscles twitched.

“Good lord.”

The middle-aged man in armor cursed under his breath.

Wiping out all living creatures in a world was a huge taboo in the universe. The corresponding path of blood sacrifice was even listed as an evil one.

To attack five star spirits at once, coupled with the extermination of the living creatures on four planets, was a huge crime that people would only dare to commit in such a remote area.

The bald man clenched his fists, his muscles bulging.

The star alliance had always played a righteous role in the peaceful development of the universe. Almost all the people who attacked the star spirits were existences that took the evil path.

These people often did not care about order or the overall cultivation environment. They were all extremely selfish people.

Of course, such existences basically lived in remote space zones. They would not stay in a certain space zone and wait foolishly for punishment.

The scarred man reached out to touch the scars on his face and kept warning himself in his heart, “Their daring is often proportional to strength. You can’t be careless.”

Although he could catch them off guard with the high-end spaceship and continue to chase after the perpetrator, this did not mean that they could safely complete the mission. If they were careless, they might be injured or even lose their lives. After all, anything could happen if they were forced into a corner.

…

At this moment, near the path of the silver spaceship, spatial ripples spread out to the edge of the area.

Chen Yiming’s figure appeared in space.

“It’s actually a spaceship!”

He was quite surprised by this.

The spaceship was an inanimate object. If it was damaged, the other party would have to think about how to escape unscathed instead of worrying about tracking him down.

“I wonder if there are any people in the spaceship who have spatial abilities like the three blue-skinned humans.”

Chen Yiming hesitated.

Although the Space Anchor talent was very useful and its function was very powerful such that he had never been restricted by it, it did not mean that he would face any restrictions.

He still needed to test the waters.

If he rushed over recklessly, even if nothing happened this time, something would happen sooner or later.

Soon, as the silver spaceship moved forward quickly, Chen Yiming secretly followed behind.

There were all kinds of accidents that one could face in the universe. The spaceship might encounter one or he could even cause one. He decided to wait for a suitable opportunity.

He was even considering directing the abnormality caused by the spatial distortion to the silver spaceship.

…

An hour later, in the silver spaceship, the alertness of the middle-aged man in armor and the two burly men had clearly increased.

Suddenly, the A.I. assistant appeared on the screen, and a quick and concise voice sounded. “At a distance of 0.1 light years ahead, there is an abnormal tremor in space. We suggest avoiding it.”

“Agreed,” the middle-aged man said without any hesitation.

The space-travel distortion was disorderly and unpredictable. The abnormality in space might have been caused by the spatial ripples emitted by the spaceship.

In the next moment, the tail of the silver spaceship lit up, and its direction immediately changed drastically. The entire process was very smooth, and it did not cause any damage to the spaceship.

Chen Yiming, who was following behind, appeared in space.

“I was using the space anchor as a weapon to pierce through the area where the spatial distortion has reached its peak. I didn’t expect the other party to immediately notice it.”

Chen Yiming tried to create an accident, but the spaceship that could emit spatial ripples could also avoid areas where there might be accidents in advance.

The first test ended just like that.

“It seems that it’s very difficult to trick the silver spaceship with just one abnormal situation. I have to forcefully create a series of accidents. However, if that’s the case, I can’t hide these probes from them.”

Anyone who suddenly encountered the situation of having multiple spatial abnormalities appearing one after another would suspect that something was amiss.

Soon, Chen Yiming made his decision. With the help of the space anchor, he leaped through space and overtook the silver spaceship.

After that, every time he appeared in space, he would be in the middle of the two spatial ripples to ensure that the spaceship would not detect him.

…

Half an hour later, in the silver spaceship.

On the screen, the A.I. assistant appeared again and quickly reported, “We have passed the area with the abnormal spatial fluctuations. We haven’t discovered any more abnormalities in space for the time being.”

With that, the A.I. assistant disappeared.

The middle-aged man in armor heaved a sigh of relief.

“Although the abnormal situation in space is widely distributed in the universe, the space in the universe is vast and boundless. The probability of encountering it head-on is very low.”

“It’s 0.1 light-years away. If not for this spaceship, I would have really crashed into it.”

The bald man also let out a long breath.

In fact, as the spaceship circled around the area with the abnormal spatial fluctuations, his entire body tensed up and he broke out in a cold sweat.

Every crew member had learned a lot about the universe, especially the unexpected situations they had to avoid on the way.

Among them, the abnormalities in space were the most important. After all, the inner world involved the mastery of the power of the world, but the small bit of spatial power it contained was not enough to form a usable spatial ability.

It was very dangerous for non-spatial ability users to accidentally enter the space-travel distortion. It was very likely that they would not be able to find their way out after entering.

The scarred man narrowed his eyes and heightened his senses.

“It seems to hurt a little!”

He felt a faint pain coming from the scar. This sixth sense had already helped him avoid several life-threatening situations in the past.

This time was no exception. Unlike what the middle-aged captain and the bald man thought, he was certain that it was not just a coincidence, but something related to this mission.

In fact, it may even be that the person who had attacked the star spirits was secretly causing trouble for them.

The three of them on the spaceship were in big trouble.

Next, more than 10 minutes of peace passed. It seemed that the area with many spatial fluctuations was just a coincidence.

The middle-aged man in armor crossed his arms again and his gaze stopped on the star map displayed on the screen.

At the same time, Chen Yiming continued to fly through space, using the space anchor to perform space-jumps. He searched for a suitable area along the way to ensure that the silver spaceship couldn’t dodge.

However, after 10 to 20 minutes, a suitable area did not appear.

Clearly, although there were many accidents in the universe, it was not to the extent of accidents happening every step of the way. Even if it involved the spatial distortion, it would not work.

“I have the space anchor on the spiritual figure. Taking some actions that seem to be courting death are actually still possible for me.”

He could not do it in space. He considered entering the space distortion himself to create an abnormal situation and lure the silver spaceship to the area where it was.

However, the outcome of this was completely uncontrollable. His understanding of the spatial distortion was limited, and he might cause a huge problem.

Soon, he thought twice about it. “Didn’t I just take two foundation bases? The star spirit from the dark forest world insisted on fighting to the death, so I had no choice but to counterattack.”

“Besides, the world’s core being split into five was something that the female spirit did. That star spirit only relied on the support of the star alliance to think that no one would dare to really kill it.”

“This silver spaceship is from a faction related to the star spirit. Could it be that it’s here to reason with me? How is that possible? It’s obvious that it’s here to investigate me.”

At this thought, Chen Yiming ignored the commotion he would cause and used the space anchor to enter the spatial distortion.

…

In the spatial distortion, space overlapped, and all kinds of strange scenes appeared in front of him.

In the distance, the shadow of a huge beast opened its mouth and sucked in several glowing stars. After devouring the stars, it even burped.

An endless tide surged out of the void and broke through one world after another along the way. One could vaguely see the despair of the living beings.

There was also a storm that spread out, making it impossible to see what was inside. After it passed, it left behind a scene of everything being torn to pieces.

“Are these scenes real? Or are they just illusions?”

Chen Yiming’s eyes widened.

This was the first time he had personally entered the spatial distortion. Using the space anchor to perform a space-jump was, in essence, teleportation of his body to the space anchor.

Throughout the entire process, he did not enter the spatial distortion.

At the same time, a tearing feeling came from his body. This was the twisting power that naturally existed anywhere in the spatial distortion.

“This twisting power is sometimes strong and sometimes weak. It’s unpredictable. If I’m not careful, the location might have already changed from where I entered the spatial distortion. It might even be a distance away.”

Chen Yiming personally experienced one of the reasons why the spatial distortion caused people’s expression to change when they heard about it.

Those who did not have a sharp perception of space would be in a desperate situation in such an environment.

If they could not immediately leave from the coordinates where they had entered, there was a high chance that they would not be able to find another weak spot among the layers of space.

His intuition told him that his current body would definitely not be able to withstand it. If he stayed too long, there might be a problem.

…

Soon, after exploring the spatial distortion, Chen Yiming turned around and used the space anchor to leave the spatial distortion and appear back in the real space.

Then, he started to enter and exit the spatial distortion, moving in the direction of the silver spaceship. Finally, he chose an area he felt was relatively suitable and selected three coordinates.

From the first coordinate, his body entered the spatial distortion.

At this moment, what appeared in his vision was a lightning world that was approaching him.

It was unknown if this lightning world was real or fake. On the surface, it was filled with dense black lightning that seeped out of the spatial distortion and was destroyed by a storm.

“Damn.”

Chen Yiming waved his fists countless times. His powerful physical strength immediately shattered the twisted power around him.

He was not really trying to attack the lightning world. The distance that the naked eye could see through the spatial distortion was inaccurate. It could be very far, very close, or it could be similar to what he perceived.

This was only because the power of distortion was everywhere in the spatial distortion, indirectly affecting the lightning world that was approaching in his direction.

At that time, it would not matter if anything rushed out of the space distortion. He just needed to reach his destination.

One second passed.

Two seconds passed.

Three seconds passed.

When Chen Yiming sensed a mixed energy fluctuation around him, he immediately used the coordinates marked by the space anchor to leave.

Then, before heading to the next set of coordinates, he used the space anchor as a weapon and slashed at it, breaking through the barrier between the real space and the spatial distortion.

After completing this step, he did the same for the remaining two coordinates. Then, with the help of the space anchor, he jumped to a spot that was easier to observe.

The three coordinates were distributed in a triangle.

Chen Yiming timed it perfectly to allow the silver spaceship into its center.

…

In the silver spaceship.

When the A.I. assistant appeared on the screen, a piercing alarm sounded throughout the entire spaceship.

The expressions of the middle-aged man in armor, the bald man, and the scarred man changed drastically. Such an alert meant that something could happen to the spaceship at any moment.

The A.I. assistant said, “Captain, the spaceship flew into a triangular area. At the three corners, serious abnormal situations broke out.”

“Please…”

Before it could finish speaking, the screen went black, and the A.I. assistant fell silent.

At the same time, the spaceship shook violently. The light turned black, and the screen shattered. The hull collapsed, and everything was instantly torn apart.

Then, faint curses could be heard. The voices were very angry.

In a corner of the galaxy, from Chen Yiming’s point of view, the silver spaceship was torn to pieces by the storm at the first coordinate. It wasn’t the explosion he had expected.

This was a little different from his prediction. Clearly, the lightning world had not been brought close enough to the spaceship.

However, the range of the storm was too terrifying. When it first rushed out of the spatial distortion, it could not be seen at all, but in the blink of an eye, it had wreaked havoc in the galaxy.

He roughly estimated that it covered about half of the solar system. It could be seen that in the spatial distortion, any random move would cause uncontrollably serious consequences.

It was precisely because of this that the silver spaceship was torn to pieces before it could react.

Seeing that the storm was still expanding, Chen Yiming decided to hide far away first. He might as well create as much chaos as possible at the last two coordinates.

A faint spatial fluctuation appeared. With one space-jump, another faint spatial fluctuation appeared. And another space-jump…

The instigator was the first to stay far away.

Just as the storm was wreaking havoc in the galaxy,

“Boom!”

There was a loud bang that shook the galaxy.

In the next moment, many palm shadows turned into huge palms that cut through the galaxy and struck out in all directions. The terrifying storm was actually forcefully dispersed.

Due to the distance, unless Chen Yiming used his will projection, he wouldn’t be able to distinguish what was happening under the interference of the powerful energy fluctuations.

Of course, the other party was also very far away and couldn’t see Chen Yiming, who was hiding in a corner. It wouldn’t be easy to find him.

The universe was endless and vast.

As long as Chen Yiming didn’t activate his giant transformation ability, unless his spiritual power was strong enough to cover an area of space measured in light years, it would be like finding a needle in a haystack.

At this point, the trap at the first coordinates he had selected had destroyed the silver spaceship and tested how strong the pursuers were.

The huge palm that could cut through the galaxy was definitely not something that someone at the level of the star condensation realm could use.

To Chen Yiming, it wasn’t appropriate to come into contact with them rashly without knowing the difference in strength between them.

He had relied on his special spatial ability to trick the enemy first.
