Transmigrating Into a Fantasy World: Signing in During Pregnancy, Reaching the Summit with My Childhood Sweetheart

111: Chapter 111: Arrayed Star Tracks and the Remnants of Night WatchSu Muxue’s awakening was like lighting a lamp in the silent darkness, significantly lightening the burden on Nangong Xuan’s shoulders.

Although the two were still in a desperate situation, at least they were no longer fighting alone. They briefly exchanged their feelings and discoveries, confirming the feasibility of Cultivating and recovering in this special environment.

Su Muxue’s Taiyin Immortal Body had an extremely high affinity with Stellar Power. Through the strange starlight imprint on her forehead, her efficiency in absorbing the nirvana starlight purified by Lin Mo’s nirvana star core was astonishing. After just half a day of regulating her breathing, her aura stabilized, even gaining a bit more cold and profound meaning than before she fell unconscious, as if the nirvana starlight had produced a beneficial complement and sublimation with her own Taiyin Star Power.

Nangong Xuan focused on tempering his Divine Soul with Nirvana Dao Rhyme. His Divine Sense became increasingly condensed and transparent, and his Perception of his own condition and the surrounding environment reached an unprecedented microscopic level. He could even vaguely ”see” the trajectories of the inert Spiritual Qi in the air moving slowly like billions of micro-dust particles, as well as the subtle rhythm of the energy flow on the ancient well’s Seal light screen.

After recovering, they turned their attention to the ancient well—more accurately, to the ancient Formation etchings around the mouth of the well that had been blurred by time and evil energy.

These etchings were spread across the rim of the well and the nearby ground, forming a massive and complex array diagram. Its main body seemed to be a never-before-seen stellar array, but many key nodes were already damaged or covered and destroyed by the black stones later piled up by the villagers. Coupled with the constant erosion of the omnipresent deathly resentment, the array diagram was incomplete and difficult to identify.

”These Formations... have similarities with the runes in the Star Palace ruins, but they are more ancient and profound.” Su Muxue extended her slender finger, virtually stroking an etching that had been almost worn flat, feeling the faint stellar intent remaining within. ”They seem to be an important component of the Seal, but now most of them have become ineffective.”

”If Lin Mo’s nirvana star core hadn’t filled the gap in time, the things under the well would have probably rushed out long ago.” Nangong Xuan’s expression was grave. ”If we can repair part of the Formation, perhaps we can reduce the pressure on the nirvana star core, and even... find more clues about ’Night Watch’ and the ’main star stele’ from it.”

However, how easy was it to repair an ancient Formation? Especially an array of this Rank. Not to mention they had lost all their cultivation now; even at their peak, they might not have been able to understand even one or two tenths of it.

”If it cannot be repaired with strength, perhaps... it can be derived with the spirit.” Nangong Xuan pondered for a moment and proposed a hypothesis. ”I temper my Divine Soul with Nirvana Dao Rhyme and have subtle Perception. You possess Taiyin Star Power and have an affinity with stellar Formations. We can perhaps try to resonate with Divine Thought to derive the original trajectories and operational laws of these incomplete Formations. We don’t seek to repair them, only to understand a fraction of them.”

This was not directly repairing the Formation but using a ”theoretical” approach—using Divine Thought and derivation to simulate and restore the mysteries of the Formation. Although equally difficult, it was perhaps the only way to touch upon ancient secrets right now.

Su Muxue’s eyes brightened slightly, and she nodded in agreement. ”This method is feasible. Perhaps... I can try to use the starlight imprint on my forehead as a guide to communicate with the nirvana star core. If I can get a sliver of Senior Brother Lin Mo’s subconscious help, the derivation might yield twice the result with half the effort.”

With the plan decided, the two did not delay any longer.

They chose to sit cross-legged facing each other at a safe position closest to the ancient well’s Seal. Nangong Xuan held his breath and concentrated, spreading his tempered Divine Sense out finely like a spider web, covering every inch of land near the mouth of the well, not missing any direction, depth, or even the weakest energy residue of any etching.

Su Muxue closed her eyes, and the starlight imprint on her forehead lit up. Her Taiyin Star Power merged with that sliver of nirvana starlight, turning into a cool and pure conceptual wave that slowly projected toward the chaos star core above the ancient well. She did not force the communication but, like a whisper, transmitted thoughts of seeking help and exploration, sharing the Formation information she perceived.

At first, the nirvana star core had no reaction, still as silent as a stone.

But Nangong Xuan and Su Muxue were extremely patient, continuously sensing and calling out.

Time passed bit by bit; the sun set in the west and rose again in the east.

Just at dawn on the second day, when the first light of morning appeared—

That Chaos-colored star Core fluctuated extremely slightly.

Like a sleeping giant beast flickering its eyelid.

A faint but incomparably clear thought, like a cool stream, slowly flowed into Su Muxue’s Sea of Consciousness and was shared through her Divine Thought connection with Nangong Xuan.

It wasn’t Lin Mo’s complete consciousness, but more like a preset ”basic information package” regarding the array beneath their feet!

At the same time, Nangong Xuan’s highly concentrated Divine Sense also captured a miraculous scene: the blurred and incomplete etchings on the ground, at the moment the first ray of dawn light shone down, seemed to be injected with some kind of vitality. They actually faintly emitted extremely dim Starlight, outlining vague light connections between each other, forming an incomplete yet vast phantom of a star map! Although it was only a fleeting flash, it was deeply imprinted in his Sea of Consciousness!

The information transmitted by the nirvana star core and that fleeting star map phantom collided and merged with a bang in their Seas of Consciousness!

In an instant, those incomplete array patterns that were originally like a heavenly book began to have patterns to follow in their eyes! The trajectories of stars, the nodes of energy, the principles of the Seal... countless fragments of profound knowledge surged in. Although they were still seeing only a part of the whole, they had already seen the gate to a whole new world!

They saw that the Formation at the mouth of the well was not a single array, but the surface-level ”manifestation” of a massive composite system!

Its Core was named the ”Nine Nether Suppressing Evil Stellar Array”! It used the power of the stars in the sky as a guide, connecting to the earth veins and converting deathly resentment into sealing energy, forming an endless suppression cycle. And those more profound runes on the well walls were a combination of sub-arrays with different functions such as ”Star Attraction,” ”Evil Conversion,” ”Rotation,” and ”Soul Locking”!

They saw many damaged areas of the Formation, as well as energy depletion caused by the blockage of earth veins and the inability of Stellar Power to descend.

They also saw that Lin Mo’s nirvana star core was currently replacing the position of the original array Core, the ”star pivot,” using its unique nirvana devouring characteristic to forcibly convert the evil energy in the well to maintain the Seal. But this method was highly consumptive and not a long-term solution.

More importantly, through deriving the star trajectories of this Formation, combined with the faint instinctive guidance transmitted by the nirvana star core and the direction of the stellar chain phantom they had glimpsed that day... they vaguely sensed a direction!

A direction located in an extremely distant place, yet possessing a faint resonance with the array beneath their feet, the falling star monument, the world key fragment, and all the stellar ruins they knew!

That sense of resonance was extremely distant and extremely faint, yet it carried a grand and majestic stellar intent originating from the Origin!

Like the mother of all stars, the source of ten thousand monuments!

”main star stele...” Nangong Xuan and Su Muxue blurted out almost simultaneously, their eyes filled with shock and realization.

Although they couldn’t determine the exact location, they had finally found a general direction! This was undoubtedly a Breakthrough!

However, just as they were immersed in this great discovery, through that brief link established with the nirvana star core, a more fragmented and blurred image buried deep in the instinctive memory of Lin Mo’s nirvana star core flooded into their consciousness:

It was an endless, broken starry battlefield burning with nirvana flames... a blurred, towering figure holding a broken sword, roaring at the sky, behind him were countless collapsing shadows of star monuments... countless distorted, indescribable black shadows surged in from the cracks in the starry sky... that figure suddenly thrust the broken sword into the star beneath his feet and roared four words: ”Night Watch... Immortal!” Immediately after was an indescribable explosion and darkness... finally, a tiny, faint light wrapping a damaged nirvana star core and a sliver of obsession fell toward the endless earth... the image stopped abruptly.

An unspeakable sense of tragedy, desolation, and the will to hold on until death fiercely impacted Nangong Xuan and Su Muxue’s minds, leaving them speechless for a long time.

Was that blurred figure the legendary Ling Xu Sword Venerable? Or some ancestor of the The Night Watch Lineage?

Was that terrifying starry sky battle the truth behind the ancient demon invasion?

What was the connection between Lin Mo’s nirvana star core, that great battle, and that roar of ”Night Watch Immortal”?

There seemed to be more mysteries, but they felt as if they had touched a corner of that heavy history and felt that heavy responsibility and Legacy.

The link with the nirvana star core slowly disconnected, falling into silence once more.

Nangong Xuan and Su Muxue looked at each other in silence, both seeing the shock and determination in the other’s eyes.

The path ahead was clearer, yet also heavier.

They not only had to find a way to survive for themselves, but they also seemed... to carry some kind of ancient Legacy.

Nangong Xuan slowly stood up, his gaze sweeping over those incomplete array marks once more, his eyes completely different.

”It cannot be fully repaired, but perhaps we can try... to guide it a little.” He said in a deep voice, ”Even if we can only clear a sliver of the earth veins and attract a ray of Starlight, perhaps it can reduce ten thousand-fold the pressure on Lin Mo.”

Su Muxue also stood up, the starlight imprint on her forehead shining brightly. ”I am willing to try.”
