Apocalypse: Infinite Evolution Starts from Attribute Allocation

Sun Harmony stopped amidst the loud tremors.

Wang Ye and the others had different expressions as they looked outside through the hatch.

It was like a brand new world, a dimension that they had never entered before. It was completely different from the starry sky of the cosmic.

Even in the starship, they could feel the heavy pressure and powerful aura.

"I'll go out and take a look first," Wang Ye said.

"I'll go with you," Nante said.

"And me!" Lingling's eyes were filled with excitement.

The cabin door slowly opened and the three of them cautiously left Sun Harmony.

"What a strong pressure." Nante's expression turned serious. He stepped on the ground. "Not only is the space binding extremely strong, but so is the surrounding pressure. It's like we're in the deepest part of the ocean."

Wang Ye looked around. "It's dark substance."

Nante and Lingling were stunned.

"This isn't a white realm. It's a black realm." Wang Ye stomped. "The black realm is built on the basis of dark substance. Its core is dark substance. As a high-dimensional existence, it naturally feels oppressive."

"This is a high-dimensional cosmic?" Lingling asked in surprise.

"No. The black realms and the white realms are incomplete as they only have part of the high-dimensional energy," Wang Ye said. "From the current situation, the black realm seems to be quite stable..."

Boom!

Without any warning, a furious bolt of lightning pierced through space. It landed less than a thousand meters in front of them, blasting a semi-circular pit in the ground.

The terrifying strength made them dumbfounded and gasp in amazement.

"It's quite stable."

Lingling and Nante looked at Wang Ye.

"... It's indeed stable." Wang Ye's mouth twitched. He looked at the huge pit that was hundreds of meters deep. "Even a lightning bolt of this level couldn't penetrate the ground. This shows that the dark substance is stable."

"Was it a coincidence?" Lingling still had a lingering fear.

"If we were struck by the lightning, we would've probably been destroyed in body and soul." Nante's expression was grave.

"Even if we are just in the periphery, we might be severely injured. It contains the origin of thunder," Wang Ye said. "This isn't an ordinary lightning strike. Its power is comparable to a full-force strike from a Dark Energy-level expert."

"Maybe it was just a coincidence just now," Lingling said.

Before she uttered her last syllable, Wang Ye and Nante's expressions changed at the same time.

There was another bolt of lightning in the distance. Although it could not be seen, it could be felt.

The lightning was especially good at proving them wrong.

"There's a spatial reaction." This time, Wang Ye had been sensing his surroundings.

"The expert's spatial realm is very high." Nante nodded.

"The internal world of a Black Hole-level expert has his remnant consciousness. His Spatial Control is naturally great. Even if he isn't at stage 9, he's at least at stage 8." Wang Ye turned on his Starry Sky Bracelet, but there was no signal.

The virtual cosmic network was probably the same.

The black realm was neither a low-dimensional cosmic nor a high-dimensional cosmic. It was an independent dimension.

"Let's observe the surroundings first and familiarize ourselves with the black realm," Wang Ye said to the two. "I'll get Ah Sheng and Lulu to come too. The starship is big. It's very likely to be struck by lightning."

"Alright."

The group of five soon began their exploration.

The lightning strikes were very frequent, and there was no pattern to them. They struck wherever they wanted.

Although Wang Ye and Nante's Spatial Control wasn't too shabby and they could vaguely sense it, they couldn't react in time.

The lightning was too fast. It had already struck the moment they sensed the change in space.

"Hmm, this is..." Wang Ye's eyes suddenly lit up. He jumped into the pit that had been produced due to the lightning strike and picked up a fingernail-sized black crystal. It was very heavy.

Although it was tiny, its weight was almost the same as his Nine Sharp Saber.

"Dark crystal." Wang Ye muttered.

Lingling and Nante came over and took the irregular black crystal from Wang Ye's hands. They observed it together and exclaimed in disbelief.

"How much is this worth, brother-in-law?" Lingling asked.

"One block of dark crystal is worth 100 million cosmic dollars. This dark crystal is about a cubic centimeter," Wang Ye said. "So it's about 100 cosmic dollars."

Behind him, Lulu and Ah Sheng were shocked.

So this was the black realm? 100 cosmic dollars could be casually picked up from the ground?

Their combined net worth was only this much!

"My Hell Prison Spear is only worth 50 cosmic dollars." Nante looked at his newly bought Hell Prison Spear. It was a weapon with unlimited dark energy and was comparable to a stage three weapon.

It didn't feel valuable anymore.

"If I pick up a little more, will I be able to get a more beautiful body?" Lingling was overjoyed.

"It's not a problem to get a new body now." Wang Ye had just earned 31200 cosmic dollars outside, making a small profit.

But now, it seemed that it was nothing compared to the endless wealth of the black realm.

Even if a Black Hole-level expert only revealed a tiny bit of wealth, it was already worth a lot.

They continued forward.

The lightning strikes continued.

The other four excitedly searched for dark crystals while Wang Ye carefully observed his surroundings.

Without a map, they could not use radar to explore. They couldn't contact anyone else either.

In the black realm where danger lurked everywhere, one wrong step could very well lead to eternal damnation.

"A starship." Wang Ye soon saw a cosmic warp starship flying past at a slow speed.

In the black realm, where the pressure was extremely strong, it was undoubtedly a fool's dream to travel at the speed of light.

Boom!

A bolt of lightning appeared without warning.

The protective shield of the cosmic warp starship was shattered, and a huge hole was blasted open.

Although it did not hit the core and make the starship lose its power, the power of the lightning strike was visible to the naked eye.

The starship was too big. Flying in this area where lightning strikes were concentrated, no matter how lucky one was, they would be struck sooner or later.

Not long after they advanced.

"A cosmic vortex." Wang Ye noticed a similar cosmic vortex in the distance.

No starships were around. It looked like an exit.

After staring at it for a while, he realized that the vortex's energy was constantly changing.

That was not right. It was space that was constantly changing.

Therefore, both the entrance and the exit were ever-changing locations.

The black realm was like a flowing river. Its spatial location was not fixed.

Wang Ye soon discovered a pattern.

He looked in Lulu's direction.

Through the slave imprint, he sensed that there was a dark crystal in Lulu's hand that was slightly larger than before. She was so excited that her wings were flapping.

Not bad.

Wang Ye praised Lulu.

The black crystal was worth at least 200 cosmic dollars. Lulu had earned back her worth.

In this day and age, a qualified slave must be able to earn money for their master.

They continued to explore for a while.

Wang Ye saw a group of cosmic humans.

Just like the five of them, they were looking around for something with excitement on their faces.

He confirmed that they had the same "goal".

"Hello, we are from the Daming Cosmic Nation, the Xianmir family." A man in blue and white armor walked over with a smile and extended his hand.

"Cosmic adventurers." Wang Ye shook his hand and pointed at the badge on his chest.

"We've been here for less than a cosmic day, and we're still exploring the surroundings." The Xianmir man laughed.

"We just came in too. Did you find anything?" Wang Ye asked.

The Xianmir man shook his head. "We just suffered a wave of lightning strikes and two of our clansmen died. It seems that the greatest danger here is lightning strikes. This black realm is quite strange. To think the greatest danger is lightning strikes, yet it's not a white realm."

"The greatest danger?" Wang Ye was curious.

The Xianmir man looked into Wang Ye's eyes and smiled. "You've just arrived, so you haven't met the dark beasts yet. They're dark creatures with dark substance as their source of strength. They're quite powerful. Even Dark Energy Lifeforms might not be able to protect themselves."

Wang Ye smiled. "Thanks for the reminder."

"You're welcome. Good luck, everyone." The Xianmir man smiled and left.

The two parties crossed paths.

The exchange was very friendly as if there was no competition at all.

"They're not bad, they even provided us with information about dark beasts." Nante walked over.

"They were probing us," Wang Ye said.

"You mean they are hostile to us?" Nante's eyes sharpened.

"I'm not sure, but we must be wary of others. This isn't the upper realm of a life planet," Wang Ye said. "There's no need to abide by the rules of the Human Sanctuary. We can't be sure that the other party isn't a threat just because they're friendly. In this place, they don't need to bear any consequences for killing us. Without the human virtual cosmic, and without Starry Sky Communications, the black realm is a lawless killing ground! Don't underestimate the greed of humans."

Lingling and Nante nodded.

After experiencing a series of disasters on the Blue Planet, they knew all this all too well.

In the cosmic, strength was everything.

One cosmic day later, Wang Ye and the others returned to Sun Harmony.

"Hmm? Sun Harmony wasn't struck by lightning," Lingling said in surprise.

"It means that there might be some patterns in the lightning strikes that we don't know about. Otherwise," Wang Ye said. "With the frequency of the lightning strikes, it's impossible for the starship not to be affected by the lightning."

"Close to 1000 cosmic dollars." Lingling raised her chin at Nante.

10:40

"...100 cosmic dollars." Ah Sheng's voice was a little weak. He had only picked up a small piece of dark crystal.

Nante pondered. "Maybe it's especially sensitive to energy fluctuations?"

"It's possible," Wang Ye said. "Through this cosmic day's observation, we found that this black realm is quite stable. Even after a thousand years, it hasn't been shaken or damaged. It's definitely not something that can be supported by dark substance energy alone. There's a high chance that there's a remnant consciousness or obsession of the black realm Master."

"Revenge! He must have died a very unwilling death!" Lingling said.

Nante smiled. "The goal of all Black Hole-level experts is to challenge the reincarnation cycle and become Undying Lifeforms. They definitely won't be willing to die on the battlefield like this."

"We don't know yet. We're only at the outermost layer of the black realm, near the starry sky of the cosmic. Obviously," Wang Ye said. "The closer we get to the core area of the black realm, the more dangerous it will be and the greater the gains. For example, the dark crystals we picked up today. There must be more inside, and there might be treasures left behind by the master of the black realm, but the danger is hard to estimate."

Everyone nodded.

"By the way, how much did you guys get today?" Wang Ye asked.

"Around 700 cosmic dollars." Nante counted.

"Close to 1000 cosmic dollars." Lingling raised her chin at Nante.

"...100 cosmic dollars." Ah Sheng's voice was a little weak. He had only picked up a small piece of dark crystal.

Wang Ye glanced at him.

What was the use of having him? He was usually so agile, but he wasn't strong enough at the critical moment.

"What about you?" Wang Ye looked at Lulu.

The timid Lulu's wings trembled slightly as she took out a pile of dark crystals and placed them on the ground.

Nante and Lingling's eyes widened.

So, so many?

Ah Sheng's expression was ugly, and his back felt inexplicably cold.

Lulu was harming him!
