Chapter 4 Purple Phoenix Star
The dark universe is a peculiar place; the vast space contains nothing but countless points of light and spaceships.
In the original universe, matter cannot exceed the speed of light. Once it reaches the speed of light, it will directly travel through space and arrive in the dark universe. In the dark universe, however, it is possible to exceed the speed of light.
The coordinates of the Dark Universe and the 'Original Universe' correspond, but the Dark Universe and the Original Universe correspond at a ratio of 1:1008.1.
Traveling at the speed of light for a year in the dark universe is only one light-year.
However, if one were to travel through space and return to the original universe, that would be 1008 million light-years away.
"At this speed, it will take a full eight days to reach Purple Phoenix Star." Suk looked at the interior of the spaceship, which had returned to normal, because the spaceship was traveling at the speed of light, so it was impossible to capture the outside scenery.
The bored passengers began to rest or find things to do to pass the time.
It's worth mentioning that you can enter a virtual universe just like in the dark universe.
Just in case, Suk also brought his consciousness sensor helmet.
I just made up an excuse to hide it from the smart robot at home, not wanting my parents to worry in advance.
"Hmm?" Suk noticed that everyone around him was at the planetary level, and he was the only apprentice... This made him even more eager to improve his strength.
Eight days passed in the blink of an eye.
After a tedious eight-day journey through the dark universe, the spaceship finally arrived at Purple Phoenix Star, an important planet of the Jialan Empire.
To travel from the original universe to the dark universe, one needs to reach the speed of light.
Returning from the dark universe to the original universe, it slows down to a standstill and then automatically travels back to the original universe.
"I wonder if I'll ever be able to physically travel through the dark universe," Suk thought, filled with all sorts of strange ideas.
As a transmigrator, he knew that only immortal gods could physically traverse the dark universe.
The founder of the vast and ancient Jialan Empire was an immortal god, whose territory encompassed billions of planets and whose subjects numbered in the countless.
Suk's birthplace, Moon River Star, is just one of the tiny, insignificant life-bearing planets within the vast territory of the Jialan Empire.
Suk suddenly found it somewhat amusing.
Even breaking through to the planetary level takes a long time, and his talent is only average. Yet he dares to dream of becoming an immortal god. If outsiders knew, they would definitely think he was delusional.
"Tsk tsk tsk, that must be Purple Phoenix Star." The burly black gorilla next to Suk exclaimed.
Over the past few days, Suk had gotten to know this burly black gorilla a bit better, so upon hearing this, he asked directly, "Uncle Rudin, have you been here before?" It was his first time here, and everything seemed new and exciting to him.
Rudin glanced at Suk and said in a muffled voice, "I have friends here... But you, a little guy who's not even a planetary level, actually dared to go out alone. That's really too bold." Among a bunch of planetary level beings, there was only one apprentice level being so conspicuous. However, since they had only met by chance, he didn't investigate further.
Suk gazed at the planet that appeared in the distant starry sky. It was a planet many times larger than the Moon River Star, suspended in the depths of the universe, shining with a brilliant light like a gem. It was surrounded by five moons. Half of the planet's surface was covered with a thick layer of ice, while the other half was covered with dense forests, plains, and lakes. One could feel its mystery and beauty.
The spacecraft pierced through the atmosphere and landed on the ice-covered side. Sunlight shone through the gaps in the clouds onto the ice surface, forming colorful beams of light and creating a spectacular sight.
A colossal city lies like a monster on an endless ice sheet, surrounded by colorful light. It stretches for thousands of kilometers in length and width, and its walls are as transparent as ice crystals. Huge statues stand along the walls like guards, making it appear majestic and vast from afar, like a city from mythology.
"It's huge! None of the nine cities on Moon River Star are this big," Suk exclaimed.
Finally, following the traction signal, the spaceship arrived at the planet's docking port.
The hatch opened, and Suk stepped off amidst a bustling crowd of passengers. Looking up, he could see a port worker in a gray uniform flying over to hand over the spaceship, but this was none of Suk's business. Even if the spaceship docked and payment was made, he wouldn't need to show his face; he was just a passenger.
"Fortunately, there's a city right next to this harbor." The burly chimpanzee was still next to Suk, glancing at him. "If we were thousands of kilometers away, we might have encountered bandits. A weak little guy like you would never have survived without sticking with a crowd."
Whether it's Moon River Star or Purple Phoenix Star, they are protected within the city. If they are outside the city, they can only pray for good fortune.
"The gravity is different." Suk noticed this as he got off the spaceship.
The planetary gravity of Zihuang Star is much greater than that of Yuehe Star, but several times greater gravity is not enough to make Su Ke worry.
As for planetary-level planets, they can withstand at least 1000 times the Earth's gravity.
"Purple Phoenix City has existed for millions of years, and the master of Purple Phoenix Star was an incredibly powerful Domain Lord-level expert." The gorilla-like giant, Lu Ding, showed a reverent expression.
For these planetary-level powerhouses, the domain lord was simply an unbelievable existence.
The massive city gate, a kilometer wide, was packed with people, and little Suk managed to sneak in unscathed.
"You didn't receive a signal?" The muscular gorilla glanced at his arm. "The planet automatically sends a communication number to the auxiliary computers and other devices of every life form that comes to this planet." Once the number is received, they can chat with each other through the "communicator."
"Yes, I received it," Suk said. Although he didn't have an auxiliary computer, he still had the most basic communication tools.
"Let's add each other. We can contact each other on the planet if anything happens." The burly gorilla seemed to feel a strong connection with Suk, as seeing young Suk reminded him of his own children.
Suk and the gorilla became friends, and then parted ways on a street in this megacity.
"There are so many people."
The streets were teeming with people, a dense crowd stretching as far as the eye could see. Almost all of them were planetary-level, and there were quite a few constellations as well. Suk was just an inconspicuous figure, and no one paid him any attention.
Suk cautiously looked around, carefully avoiding the pedestrians.
Following the directions on the planet's functional map, Suk traversed long streets and made his way to the city center.
The branch of the Universe First Bank is located in the most bustling central area of the city, as are the major human powers.
A magnificent, exquisite, and awe-inspiring building stands in the middle of the city, occupying a vast area, yet few people pass by it.
Suk glanced around before nervously walking toward the mysterious door of the bank building, which resembled a starlight tunnel.
"Hello, sir, what service do you require?" A stunningly beautiful young woman, wearing a vest with the logo of the Universe's First Bank, greeted him with a smile. She was slightly surprised to find that Suk was only an apprentice. After all, the minimum amount a bank serves is 1 million Jialan coins in savings, so it was rare to see someone with such low financial standing. However, she maintained her professional demeanor and did not show it at all.
"I already have a reservation." Suk was still slightly nervous, especially when he noticed that some of the other customers around him had already noticed him.
Some even exuded a chilling aura of ferocity, with terrifying eyes, seemingly like legendary space adventurers or mercenaries.
