Both of them simultaneously brightened at their discovery, and Bai Zhexian quickly stepped forward to ask, "Brother Feng, could it be that you've found that door?"

"I did find it, but..."

Hearing him say this, the two, who had just been fully revitalized, felt their hearts skip a beat, their faces turning ashen...

Feng Yi had a lot on his mind and spoke absentmindedly, without considering the others' feelings. He only realized he had spoken without thinking when his words slipped out, but he then brushed it off with a smile, "Heh, don't rush, being hasty won't help. Just hand over the control to me, and I'll explain in a moment."

Once he had regained control of the spaceship, Feng Yi sat in front of the central computer, his fingers flying over the keyboard as he rapidly controlled Device C, simulating human-known crystal structures, all the while explaining everything he saw.

The two listened intently, not realizing Feng Yi possessed such bizarre abilities until he had finished speaking. They finally grasped the issue that had Feng Yi worried— it was indeed the Six-pointed Crystal made of an unknown material.

"That's the situation. The light door is gradually fading, so we must leave before it disappears."

While speaking, Feng Yi had already drawn on his memory to sketch out the various known human crystal structures. Even if the data weren't accurate, it was enough to estimate the time when the crystal would break.

In less than the time it takes to smoke a cigarette, the computer simulation quickly produced results - normal crystals are extremely hard substances, and as the saying goes, 'too rigid and it breaks easily.' Therefore, the fuzzy data computed suggested that even though the damage was minor, the crystal's own hardness would likely cause a chain reaction, with the breaking time ranging from two to forty-two hours. It could shatter even more easily than steel or glass.

Of course, the computer's calculations were somewhat inaccurate, since the products of the Magical Civilization might not fall within the known range of humanity. At this moment, Feng Yi didn't dare to gamble on that.

As feared, the worsening space fissure only accelerated the crystal's degradation. Its breaking speed could only increase from its original estimation, perhaps even accumulating. Lost in thought, Feng Yi habitually stroked his chin and contemplated before saying, "We leave now, abandoning the spaceship."

"Hey, hey, hey... Brother Feng, this is an invaluable spaceship. Are you really going to throw it away?" Kevin asked in a tone of disbelief.

Bai Zhexian also looked troubled, though what he cared about was not the spaceship, "It would only take a few minutes to pack up and take the Space Crystal with us. If we can't find the exit, we can still use it."

"We won't make it, I think we're already short on time. Assuming we can't reach that light door, we won't last long onboard the spaceship, since the hollow space is expanding at a rate beyond your imagination."

Without hesitation, the two made some quick preparations before grabbing onto Feng Yi from either side.

Feng Yi knew the moment to risk his life had arrived. He preferred to seize the opportunity rather than wait. Even though the astronomical distance was a burden to him, instantaneously moving at high speeds towards the light door had a much higher success rate than their current predicament. The always somber-faced man didn't want to leave his chances to luck. If it were just him, he was ready to die—after all, he didn't have much time left anyway. "So be it, then."

Whoosh...

All three vanished together, immediately pulling thirty thousand kilometers away from the fast-moving spaceship. At the same time, Feng Yi's mental power continued to radiate outward, expanding relentlessly.

The spaceship roared in pursuit, closing ten thousand kilometers in an instant.

Feng Yi made another leap, this time reaching a hundred and fifty thousand kilometers... Even in the dust-free depths of universe, it was almost impossible to see the shuttle that he had far outdistanced.

Leap after leap, each one longer than the last—five hundred thousand kilometers, one million kilometers, ten million kilometers, a hundred and fifty million kilometers... From this point on, Feng Yi's straight-line movements were nearly on par with the speed of light.

An astronomical unit is roughly one hundred and fifty million kilometers. Each of Feng Yi's movements was merely one thousandth of an astronomical unit. At his current speed, this was still not enough, but fortunately, he did not stop expanding his mental power, enduring a headache that felt as though it would split his skull as he continued to increase his range.

One hundred million kilometers... one billion kilometers...

By the time Feng Yi expanded his mental coverage to a thirty million kilometer range, even his will, as strong as steel, couldn't prevent a pained and uncomfortable expression from showing on his face.

Shhh shhh shhh...

Eventually unable to bear it, Feng Yi kept his range at thirty million kilometers, rapidly shuttling through the void with just his last bit of consciousness. This was a distance he could have easily crossed in the beginning, but now, it had become as challenging as climbing to the ninth heaven.

Each time Feng Yi moved, Bai Zhexian and Kevin could see the stars in the sky rapidly changing—from the dim starlight to the dazzling nebulae, and then to the bizarre voids that spread across half the galaxy, each scene and object inspiring awe as if in a dream.

Whoosh!

A door of brilliant light suddenly stretched out before them. The six-pointed crystal still looked the same as Feng Yi had first seen it, unchanged. Without a second thought, he dragged them both and shot through it.

The next second, he felt darkness envelop his vision, and he could faintly hear Kevin and Bai Zhexian calling out to him in low voices before he fainted on the spot...

It seems even the fourth spatial dimension could not quickly awaken his senses. Feng Yi lay motionless and unresponsive as if in deep sleep, and being in a higher dimensional space meant that when he woke up again, the dual recovery of his senses and spirit did not cause him much pain.

"Brother Feng, you're finally awake!" Joy that Kevin could not hide filled his eyes.

Bai Zhexian didn't say anything, but his rueful smile spoke volumes.

"How long have I been out?" Feng Yi seemed to think of something, and as soon as he finished speaking, he reflexively looked toward the location of the light gate. He noticed that the door had disappeared, and he found himself in the deep universe where countless light doors converged, his body sensing the richer material substance contained in the fourth-dimensional space.

"Two hours. That light door mysteriously vanished twenty-seven minutes after we entered. Your judgment was correct. If we had continued on the shuttle's normal flight path, we probably would have been stranded there forever," Bai Zhexian said with a hint of loss.

"Is that so... Where are we now?" Feng Yi began to look around, taking in the endless array of light doors extending far into the distance, a little bewildered.

"Kevin said he's been here before. It's from the door that just disappeared that we entered. We don't have your special ability, so we didn't dare to try entering rashly—haha, but compared to that, Brother Feng, you should rest for now."

"Brother Feng, you really scared us just now. Maybe you should not use that ability again." Kevin turned away, and on the side where the others couldn't see, his face showed a painful look of self-blame. If it hadn't been for his reckless entry into the interstellar gate, Brother Feng wouldn't have ended up like this.

Feng Yi glanced at him, and with a relaxed tone, he chuckled, "Haha, it's standard procedure, right? Besides, your intelligence was also crucial, wasn't it?"
