A rush of dizziness befell both of them as the space around them transformed.

When An Lin reopened his eyes, he discovered that he had arrived at an extremely foreign place. This place was completely different from his mental image of what the Vast Land of Blood would be like.

The Vast Land of Blood sounded like an extremely gruesome place. It felt like it should have been a chaotic and sinister place instead of the world before them, where a sea of stars lit up the night sky overhead and the pitch-black earth was completely silent.

An Lin felt a set of fingers move in his hands, and he turned to Xu Xiaolan to find that she was also looking at him.

It looks like we didnt get split up into random locations as we were holding hands, Xu Xiaolan said with a smile.

An Lin was also quite elated. This tells us we should hold hands more in the future!

Xu Xiaolan:

There werent any beasts left around them.

Xu Xiaolan looked up into the sky, and the galaxy of stars was reflected in her eyes, making them appear even more vibrant and dazzling.

After stargazing for a short while, her eyes locked onto a certain star, which was crimson like blood. The yellow star indicates the south while the blood star indicates the north. We should go to a place where the two stars are connected in a line and walk toward the yellow star in order to find the exit.

According to the Jade Bone Immortal Bug, this was the best way to find the exit.

An Lin suggested another course of action, We should see if theres some good stuff we can pick up first around here. Apparently, all the beasts that walked toward the blood star have died. I wonder what lies in that direction.

Thus, the two of them began to wander aimlessly around this strange place.

Everything was deathly silent. The galaxy of stars overhead was incapable of speech, and the vast expanse of pitch-black earth was devoid of any living creatures. The entire place appeared extremely lonesome and desolate.

Thankfully, An Lin had Xu Xiaolan by his side.

Because of her presence, the desolate landscape suddenly appeared more like a scenic location.

An Lin was getting quite excited and began pointing out a series of trivial sights and scenes.

Xiaolan, Xiaolan, look in that direction. Doesnt that constellation of stars there look like Little Tian? An Lin pointed to a certain spot in the sky with a smile.

Xu Xiaolan stared toward that location for a few seconds before responding with a bemused expression, Its just a few stars connected in a circular formation! Youre saying that looks like Little Tian?!

Haha, Little Tian is round like a circle! An Lin was quite pleased with himself.

Xu Xiaolan rolled her eyes at An Lin before forging on ahead.

Xiaolan, look, its the Big Dipper!

Those are just seven stars connected together, and youre calling that the Big Dipper?

Of course! What else would you call it?

Only Xu Xiaolan would be able to deal with An Lin, who was in such a carefree mood.

The two of them strolled through this legendary Vast Land of Blood and chatted about insignificant things, but they did not encounter any dangerous environments.

My God, did we walk in through the wrong door? Weve been walking for so long and nothing has happened! An Lin was quite perplexed.

Maybe its because were quite lucky? Xu Xiaolans brows furrowed as she scanned her eyes across the horizon around her. However, there really was nothing aside from more undulating black land.

How about we try flying? After all, flying will be faster than walking, An Lin suggested after a moment of hesitation.

No, Xu Xiaolan immediately turned him down. Have you forgotten what the Jade Bone Immortal Bug told us? All those who try to fly in this world will be oppressed by the stars!

An Lin fell silent.

The Jade Bone Immortal Bug had told them that there were virtually no flying beasts among the beasts that had come out of this place alive.

According to a witness that happened to be in the right place at the right time, it bore witness to a flying beast being reduced to mincemeat by the oppressive power of the stars upon it taking flight. Its companion, a Steel Saber Penguin, gave up on flight upon witnessing the death of its companion and chose to crawl along the ground instead, thereby allowing it to become the only flying beast survivor.

Then, should we try another method? An Lin asked.

He had never seen what the oppressive power of the stars would look like, and he was quite curious.

Xu Xiaolan blinked with incomprehension. What method?

Come on out, cannon fodder Gundams!

An Lins storage ring flashed, and two shiny, silver Gundams appeared.

Xu Xiaolans lips twitched slightly. You used to be so
