Chapter 2998 Terrifying Ancient Superstar
If the twin nebula where the entrance of the ancient tomb was located was an overwhelming, splendid butterfly, the left wing of the two butterflies would be known as ‘Twin One’, while the right wing would be known as ‘Twin Two’.
Of the two galaxies, the one with the largest size and the most mass was the fifth planet, which was 1,724 times the diameter of Empyrean Terminus and 445 times the mass of Empyrean Terminus. It was like a giant among planets and close to the limit of the planetary stability structure. It was an out-and-out ‘giant planet’.
Since the Gemini Nebula was very far away from the Star Ocean Imperium, even if the astronomers of the past had observed the spectacular scene of the supernova outbreak, they had not done much research on the chaotic space zone, nor had they named all the planets that were enveloped by the Gemini Nebula. Therefore, in the original astronomical database of the Star Ocean Imperium, the giant planet was simply known as ‘Twin Left Five’, which meant the fifth planet of the Gemini No. 1 galaxy.
But right now, the cosmologists were paying much more attention to the planet, because the entrance to the tomb of the Supreme Emperor was probably in the orbit of the planet. In other words, the entrance to the tomb of the Supreme Emperor had been captured by the gravity of the planet and seemed to have become one of its ‘satellites’.
Therefore, the cosmologists named it ‘Giant Star’.
Ancient giants were very typical planets.
The giant of the family of planets was a gas-liquid planet that was mainly made of hydrogen and helium and occupied more than 50% of its total mass. The cosmologists suspected that a solid core made of various heavy elements was inside the planet, but the time was too short for detailed exploration. They could only infer from the data of other planets.
According to the deduction of ordinary planets, the outer layer of such planets was often made of carbon, ethane, hydrogen sulfide, mercury, and frozen crystals. If abundant resources of crystals were stored inside the planets, super-intensity radiation and high-energy particle streams would be released under the stimulation of the stars and the enormous internal stresses. Generally speaking, such planets were the reserves of the stars, or ‘quasi-stellar stars’ that could not be turned into stars without reaching the critical point. The energy that a planet could release to the outside world was even greater than the energy it absorbed from the stars.
The energy, together with the high rotation speed, turned the outer layer of the planet into a chaotic, furious ocean of energy. It was as if the entire planet was enveloped in an ocean of lightning and thunder. Even the most dense and solid meteoroids would be torn apart by the furious teeth of the planet if they tried to invade its territory recklessly.
A planet in the stable period of a galaxy was already so terrifying.
In the meantime, the supernova outbreak of the Gemini Nebula had shattered the stability of the two galaxies. When the two stars burst out, they would spurt out overloaded energy and mass. When they hit the stability of the ‘ancient giant’, they would break the shackles that the stars imposed on them and make them look like wild horses that had run out of their reins or ambitious barbarians when they were leaderless.
The reason was simple.
It was by relying on a gravitational field hundreds of times more than its mass that the disobedient planet was captured and bound to its orbit.
But right now, due to the loss of mass and energy in the supernova outbreak, the newly-born neutron stars were no longer able to drag the ‘ancient giant star’.
When a supernova broke out, the blast of tremendous energy and mass broke through the outer layer of the ‘ancient giant’ and the middle layer of the liquid state. It was very likely that it would invade the core of the solid state and trigger an immeasurable, unbelievable reaction with the heavy elements inside, triggering the crazy evolution.
On one hand, since the ancient giants were no longer bound by the stars, their orbits had become twisted and irregular. Maybe after a ‘short moment’ in the scale of the universe, they would be freed from the seals of the Gemini Nebula and fly to the edge of the universe, turning into a wandering planet.
On the other hand, all the materials that constituted the ancient giants were being compressed and heated by gravity, trying to raise the core temperature to more than ten million degrees in order to trigger a fusion reaction and replace the two aging neutron stars as new stars!
Ancient giants were the most massive celestial bodies in the two galaxies other than stars.
It was like the strongest child in the family was always yearning to replace the father.
Once it successfully awakened the Heart of the Star and ignited a raging fire of millions of degrees, it would be possible to engulf the entire Gemini Nebula and create a new, stable stellar system.
But it was a pity that its experiment was going to fail, because its mass was still too small to reach the threshold of the birth of a star.
Another important reason was that the supernova outbreaks of the two stars had spurted out a lot of materials and energy. At the intersection, another experiment of ‘star birth’ was taking away 50% of its hope. The only outcome would be ‘mutual destruction’. Neither of the two celestial bodies would turn into stars and return to silence. However, before they died down, their struggles and efforts would release the most furious radiation, ripples, high-energy particle streams, and strong magnetic fields. For stars and planets, it was just a blink of an eye or a sneeze. But for human beings and starships, it was a catastrophe. Even for an expert in the division of soul such as Li Yao, it was still unknown whether or not his vitality could be fully utilized in the most intense magnetic field.
Other than that, like most planets, the ancient giants boasted almost a hundred satellites.
As the entire galaxy and their home planets mutated, the stable orbits of the satellites were shattered, too. Some satellites were attracted by the attraction force of the ancient stars and dived into the embrace of the main star, triggering furious torrents of energy and mass hundreds of thousands of meters high that looked like volcanic eruptions. The trajectories of some satellites overlapped and crashed into each other violently. They were shattered into pieces and formed random, unpredictable stone belts that swallowed everything on their way with a destructive aura.
Also, many satellites had been hiding a lot of highly radioactive elements in the first place, which formed a furious magnetic field that could even disable all the functions of the starships that entered it.
That would be terrible.
It must be noted that the ancient giants were in an extremely unstable state. The density and mass of their body parts were different. Their gravity was different, too. They were like gravity traps or ‘chaotic sources’. When the starship of the adventure team had 100% power, they were naturally cautious enough to keep a safe distance from the ancient star. However, if the power unit of the starship was blown up by a meteoroid, or the navigation system was jammed by a magnetic storm, the starship would fall into the orbit of the ancient star and be faced with endless lightning
It was the worst situation that a starship could ever encounter.
Even if a Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator was riding a Giant God Soldier, they might not be able to escape from the lightning, thunder, and magnetic storms hundreds of times the standard gravity.
If they were captured by the gravity and fell into the depths of the ancient giants, they would only be crushed into solid bodies made of flesh and metal.
This was how terrifying the ancient giants
were.
The deeper he went, the more unexpected dangers he would encounter. They were ten times more dangerous than the problems he knew.
However, it couldn’t be helped. The entrance of the tomb of the Supreme Emperor was in the orbit of the ancient star. Only a behemoth such as the ancient star could attract it and make it move in a way that was somewhat predictable and could be calculated.
It was now or never. If the entrance of the tomb of the Supreme Emperor got rid of the gravity of the ancient giants and moved irregularly in the middle of the vast, boundless Twin Stars Nebula, nobody would be able to find it.
“Lu Qingchen is truly a lunatic!”
Looking at the latest astronomical parameters and environmental monitoring files, Li Yao frowned hard. “We have grasped so many terrifying parameters and made thorough preparations, but we did not dare to rush into such a place recklessly. Lu Qingchen dared to break into such a ‘forbidden area of life’ with only five supreme fortresses? He must’ve made up his mind to die or die trying!
“But then again, we are truly unlucky. The sea of stars is so vast, but the entrance to the tomb of the Supreme Emperor has to be in such a chaotic, brutal place?
Li Linghai, on the other hand, told Li Yao that it was not a matter of luck, and that he was being unreasonable.
The Tomb of the Supreme Emperor was not in a stable three-dimensional space. Of course, it was not in the legendary four-dimensional space, either. It could be said that it was in a weird space fragment in the folds of the three-dimensional universe.
If the three-dimensional universe remained stable without the slightest gap, the tomb of the Supreme Emperor naturally wouldn’t appear.
Only in the extremely harsh environments such as the Gemini Nebula and the ancient giants, where all the materials and energy in the entire space were undergoing the most violent changes, could the stable structure of the three-dimensional space be torn apart in the super high-speed collisions between planets and magnetic fields, thereby attracting the entrance of the tomb of the Supreme Emperor from which it would ‘surface’.
In the past, the entrance to the Tomb of the Supreme Emperor had always appeared in such a chaotic astronomical environment. When Li Linghai entered the Tomb of the Supreme Emperor for the first time, he had also encountered a soul-stirring cosmic storm and ended up in it by accident. Later, when the Tomb of the Supreme Emperor was being developed, he had encountered all kinds of dangers, too. However, the astronomical environment this time was particularly harsh. But it also proved that the diameter of the space gap was long enough and the maintenance time was long enough. Therefore, a large batch of experts and hundreds of starships were able to enter the tomb and carry out the largest scale of development!
All in all, risks and benefits coexisted. Whether they were faced with Lu Qingchen, the Pangu Clan, the Flood Tide Legion, or the furious universe itself, the only thing that mattered to them was the victory of the brave!
