Reborn As An Interstellar Giant Mosquito

Chapter 1389: Chapter 1 Dark Realm! [New Atmosphere]

The vast universe, mysterious and boundless.

No matter how powerful a creature is, the universe they see throughout their lifetime is just a tiny part of the whole universe. To traverse beyond this area might require unimaginably terrifying power or technological capability.

At least in this small pond called the Milky Way, no being has ever thought about matters outside the Milky Way.

The geniuses in the Genius Battlefield are even more focused on how to obtain greater promotion opportunities within the Genius Battlefield.

Jia Yan is no exception.

Soaring through the sky, using the hundred tons of super energy material he carried with him, Jia Yan flew all the way.

”The energy is running low. But it should just barely be enough to reach the Dark Realm...”

While piloting the Conceptual Ship, Jia Yan observed the ship’s energy levels.

In the space trailing behind the Conceptual Ship, what was originally a small mountain of super energy mine had vanished, consumed entirely during the journey as energy.

Considering it was super energy, the fact that it was depleted this much shows how far Jia Yan had traveled.

Of course, having consumed such a massive amount of energy and still being within the Central Star District of the Genius Battlefield, crossing several hundred light-years is no trivial matter.

And just as the energy reached the warning level, Jia Yan controlled the Conceptual Ship to transcend out of the Subspace Area.

In the observable universe, a monster resembling a crow suddenly appeared in the empty, dark space.

”Is this the so-called Dark Realm? It doesn’t look any different from the Starry Sky of the Genius Battlefield.”

Jia Yan gazed at the starry sky before him, feeling a bit wary.

He understood that the current location was the Dark Realm within the Genius Battlefield, a place where most geniuses tremble in fear, also home to the Dark Forces.

Here, the genius battlefield bears little difference from the outer space, with murder and slaughter being as routine as eating and drinking. It’s said that the existence of the Dark Realm has been a subject of debate for the official of the genius battle domain for countless years. Some argue for its allowance, while others oppose it. Nonetheless, this region has persisted under the nose of the authorities for so long that it is foreseeable it will continue to exist.

”The Dark Realm is a large dark area within the Genius Battlefield. The number of geniuses here is countless; some are criminals, some are geniuses avoiding enemies, and many more are those with a dark heart. Of course, almost all existences aim to rise to higher great levels in this place of killing driven by one’s heart.”

Recalling the information he gathered, Jia Yan continued carefully forward.

His Conceptual Ship looked like a living creature, and with Jia Yan emanating waves of cellular energy, his strength and talent presented that of a high-level talent secondary barrier genius.

Trailing behind him was his high talent genius avatar, appearing like a mindless puppet following him woodenly.

And just as the two passed by what seemed like an ordinary meteorite...

That meteorite seemed just like the usual interstellar material, but as the two passed by it, it suddenly moved!

It turned out to be a monster resembling a meteorite. When it saw Jia Yan passing by, it immediately extended a claw from its body.

This sudden ambush made Jia Yan’s expression change.

However, he wasn’t too shocked; instead, he dodged and immediately turned around and thrust his forefoot!

In the universe, a spray of blood flowed. The attacking monster died just like that.

”An intermediate talent secondary barrier genius dared to ambush two high-level talent secondary barrier geniuses...” Jia Yan was almost speechless after detecting the opponent’s talent.

”But this monster’s disguise was impressive. If I hadn’t reacted quickly, I might have fallen victim to it. Looking at it, it seems to have succeeded many times.”

Jia Yan finally realized the danger of the Dark Realm.

Here, talent does not signify everything. An intermediate talent secondary barrier genius dared to attack a high-talent genius because talent is just talent. In actual combat, factors like the environment, psychology, combat suppression, and others come into play.

Thus, instances where a high-talent genius receives accolades, while medium and low-level geniuses are willing to be subservient, are quite rare here.

”It aligns with my thoughts; this is how it’s supposed to be. Talent and level mean nothing; the real test is the actual combat result.”

Jia Yan smiled. These life-and-death conditions were what he sought. For example, when he was ambushed; if he hadn’t reacted, the intermediate talent genius could have killed him, rendering his talent useless.

He often criticized internally while in the Genius Battlefield, where talents are classified and protected. Isn’t this practice undermining their actual combat capability? In the outer domains, no one holds back just because of one’s talent.

In real combat, several elements are involved, like mindset and environmental conditions. Hence a less talented and weaker entity defeating a genius is not impossible.

Of course, the Genius Battlefield has its considerations, and given its nature, Jia Yan couldn’t say much.

But now that he was in the Dark Realm, he felt somewhat like being back in the Outer Star Area.

”Huh? Is a strong entity approaching? Let’s go!”

Jia Yan detected a group of monsters rapidly approaching after he killed the secondary barrier genius, so he swiftly sped away.

”Hmph, that one failed, and the prey escaped!”

”Never mind, there will be a few escapees over the month. If this waste lets someone escape, then death is what they deserve. Let’s go back and continue waiting.”

A few secondary powerhouses, along with an intermediate talent semi-eternal existence, arrived at the corpse of the monster Jia Yan had killed and cursed loudly upon seeing the remains.

But since the one who killed the monster had already left, they couldn’t say much and had to leave immediately.

Jia Yan, having fled not too far away, watched the group of creatures behind, a trace of surprise in his compound eyes.

”I see, this area of the starry sky must be a trade route? And they dare openly rob and kill here? Simply lawless. So this is the Dark Realm.”

With an expanded understanding of the Dark Realm, Jia Yan flew away from this section of the starry sky.

Jia Yan’s strength wasn’t particularly powerful in the Dark Realm, but with the Conceptual Ship and the accompanying avatar, the combined might was considerable, reducing his chance of encountering danger significantly.

After swirling around for three days, Jia Yan finally evaded a group chasing him for quite long, reaching a celestial body.

”Should I descend or not?”

Reaching outside this celestial body, Jia Yan hesitated.

The Dark Realm he was in lay in a dark crevice area between two medium forces, the territory vast, with many similar celestial bodies, but Jia Yan couldn’t be sure if this celestial body was a ’robbery site.’

Such occurrences are not rare in the Dark Realm. After all, most celestial bodies here are occupied by strong ones or Dark Realm Forces, but unlike external forces and strong ones, they harbor no sense of rules. In case of interest conflicts, monsters entering could be killed instantly.

”Well, those controlling a celestial body might not care for a penniless one like me.”

Jia Yan hesitated for a while but decided to descend.

The celestial body was over three thousand kilometers in diameter, quite large in size but not particularly attractive. Sparse green patches dotted the surface, with various buildings, many of which were in ruins.

Some monsters were engaged in combat at a location on the celestial body, with spectators nearby not fearing escalation, jesting loudly.

”Hey! Even high-level geniuses are here, two of them at that, haha, you two high-level genius brothers, come over and chat.”

A thug-like monster laughed heartily upon seeing Jia Yan descending from the sky.

Jia Yan glanced at him, noting he was an intermediate secondary barrier genius on the verge of upgrading, possibly soon achieving it.

Upon hearing the other’s words, the surrounding monsters all turned their gaze toward Jia Yan and his avatar behind him.

Jia Yan, however, remained silent, landing on the ground with the avatar, completely ignoring the other as he proceeded forward.

”Haha, Weird Five Six, your presence is clearly ignored by the esteemed high-level genius. I’m dying of laughter, what a disgrace, haha.”

Seeing Jia Yan and his avatar ignore him, the thug monster didn’t get angry. Instead, he didn’t let up the provocation, accelerating to block Jia Yan’s path.

”Haha, esteemed high-level genius, just by looking at you, one can tell you’re new to the Dark Realm, my little brother, I’m quite resourceful, you know? Come on, let’s have a chat.”

Seeing the other approaching, attempting to get close, a sharp gleam flashed in Jia Yan’s compound eyes!

Poof!

A forefoot shot up, thrusting towards the other’s face.

”Oh, impressive, impressive.” The thug monster managed to block it, defending against Jia Yan’s strike!

But the exoskeleton arm he used to block Jia Yan’s strike shattered completely.

He leaped several steps back, still laughing carefreely: ”The esteemed high-level genius got angry, brothers, I’m so scared, hahaha.”

”Hahaha...”

”I’m dying of laughter, Weird Five Six claims he’s scared, my stomach hurts, laughing so much, hahaha.”

The nearby monsters roared with laughter, one monster even rolling on the ground in mirth.

Jia Yan’s expression was grave, baffled by the laughter of this group of monsters. Nevertheless, he ignored what they were laughing about and continued onward.

”Whoa, hahaha, the esteemed high-level genius is leaving, they walk so gracefully, hahahaha!”

”Truly, so graceful, I’m dying, seeing such a graceful walking genius in the Dark Realm, hahahaha, my stomach hurts.”

Exactly why this bunch of monsters was laughing remained a mystery, but they laughed heartily nonetheless.

Jia Yan moved cautiously forward, thankfully moving out of these monsters’ line of sight. The group continued laughing riotously, paying no mind to Jia Yan and his avatar’s departure.

”What a garbage celestial body!”

Jia Yan passed this group of monsters, shook his head, and muttered this line under his breath.
