The laboratory door swung open with a loud bang, and a rush of cold air, mixed with a strange metallic burnt smell, hit Lin Yuan in the face, making him want to sneeze. "What is that smell? Are they conducting chemical weapon experiments here?" he complained while pinching his nose, looking like a hamster that had wandered into a gas chamber.
Inside was nothing like what Lin Yuan had imagined; it wasn't filled with various bizarre instruments or cages holding Rare Beasts. No, it resembled a minimalist art gallery, eerily empty.
In the center of the lab stood a massive spherical device. It looked like a giant metallic egg, quietly floating in mid-air, its surface shimmering with an eerie blue glow, expanding and contracting as if it were breathing, almost mocking Lin Yuan's ignorance.
"What is this thing? Could it be an alien spaceship?" Lin Yuan's eyes widened in curiosity, reminiscent of Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden. He couldn't help but reach out to touch it but was abruptly pulled back by Su Jiu'er.
Su Jiu'er appeared more composed as she carefully observed the spherical device, her brow slightly furrowed as if deep in thought. "According to the information I've gathered from ancient texts, this should be the legendary 'Ling Domain Simulator,'" she said slowly, her tone serious, like an archaeologist who had just discovered a millennia-old tomb.
"Ling Domain Simulator? That sounds impressive! Is it used to simulate Lingyu? Does that mean we can train and level up inside, leading us to the pinnacle of life, marrying a rich beauty and becoming a master?" Lin Yuan rubbed his hands together excitedly, fantasizing about a bright future like a lottery winner.
Su Jiu'er shot him an exasperated glance and replied sharply, "You think too highly of it! The Ling Domain Simulator is no amusement park! It can artificially generate Lingyu, but it's also fraught with danger; one misstep could lead to disaster and turn you into cosmic dust!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan deflated like a punctured balloon and said dejectedly, "Then what are we doing here? Just for a tour? The ticket must be expensive."
"Of course not! We must stop them from activating the Ling Domain Simulator!" Su Jiu'er’s tone was resolute, like a warrior preparing for battle.
Lin Yuan activated his Gazing Ability to closely examine the Ling Domain Simulator. He discovered that its energy source was not merely Lingqi but an unknown energy. The fluctuations of this energy were entirely different from the natural Spiritual Energy Fluctuation, akin to comparing heavy metal rock to classical music—worlds apart. Even more bizarre was that this energy seemed to be devouring the surrounding Lingqi like a greedy beast, disrupting the balance of energy around it.
"Wait a minute, Su Jiu'er, don’t you think something’s off about this energy? It feels like the worms in my stomach wriggling around; just looking at it makes me uncomfortable," Lin Yuan pointed at the Ling Domain Simulator with concern in his voice.
Su Jiu'er also activated her Lingqi sensing ability to carefully feel the energy fluctuations around them. Her expression grew increasingly grave, much like a doctor receiving a critical diagnosis. "Indeed, this energy fluctuation is strange; it resembles some kind of Taboo Power... much like the legendary 'Chaotic Energy,' filled with instability and destructiveness."
“What is Taboo Power? Is it something that makes you have diarrhea?” Lin Yuan was completely confused, as if he were listening to an ancient text.
Su Jiu'er explained, “In the Ancient Texts, it is recorded that some powerful Cultivators, in pursuit of higher realms, would touch upon Taboo Power. However, this power often comes with great risks; once it spirals out of control, it can lead to catastrophic consequences, much like opening Pandora's Box and unleashing endless disasters.”
“So this thing is a ticking time bomb! We need to dismantle it quickly, or the apocalypse will be upon us!” Lin Yuan suddenly understood, his tone laced with a hint of fear as if he could already see the world being destroyed.
At that moment, the laboratory's alarm system suddenly activated, the piercing sound echoing throughout the base, red lights flashing as if the end of the world had truly arrived. “Wah wah wah…” The alarm blared like a frantic rooster in Lin Yuan's ears, driving him to distraction.
“This is bad! We triggered the alarm! We're in big trouble now!” Su Jiu'er’s expression changed, her voice tinged with urgency, like an ant on a hot pan.
“Quick! We need to get out of here! The best strategy is to retreat!” Lin Yuan grabbed Su Jiu'er’s hand and ran toward the laboratory exit like a startled rabbit.
However, the laboratory doors had already slammed shut. Countless armed security personnel surged in from all directions, surrounding them completely, their dark gun barrels aimed at them as if they were about to be turned into Swiss cheese.
“It seems we’ve been caught in a trap…” Lin Yuan said with a bitter smile, his tone filled with helplessness, like a lamb awaiting slaughter.
Su Jiu'er appeared more composed. She pulled two daggers from her backpack and handed one to Lin Yuan, saying, “Enough talk! Get ready to fight! Today it’s either them or us!”
Back to back, holding their daggers, they fixed their determined gazes on the surrounding enemies like two cornered beasts.
An intense battle was about to erupt…
Would they manage to escape? What secrets did the Ling Domain Simulator hold?
