Chapter 569 Memory
The system sensed that Su Muyao's body was not quite right and asked with concern, "Host, what's wrong?"

Su Muyao covered her stomach with her hand, "I don't know why, but my stomach started to hurt."

The system said, "It can't be that bad. You were fine before, and you didn't feel any pain when you fell. Why are you suddenly in pain now?"

"If you calculate the time, only half a month has passed."

Even if its host wants to give birth to snake babies, it needs to be a full month, and it's only been half a month.

Su Muyao had a vague feeling in her heart. She focused her mind and said, "Perhaps Wen Nanxi is in danger. I must open this place and find him."

After she said that, her stomach pain suddenly stopped.

Su Muyao was stunned, finding it quite amazing.

What can the baby in the womb sense, or what can it know?

She had a subtle feeling in her heart at that moment.

However, Su Muyao had no time to think further and quickly touched the bronze star hub.

She subconsciously felt that the key lay in this.

But when her fingertips touched it, a sharp buzzing sound suddenly came to her mind.

Her head started to ache, and her ears were ringing.

At that moment, she felt as if something long buried in her mind had been forcibly pried open. Her vision blurred, and the scene before her eyes instantly distorted. The outline of the dark room faded away, replaced by a vast wilderness filled with stars.

A tall, stunningly beautiful figure suddenly entered her consciousness without warning.

The man sat on a grassy field under the starry sky. His long blue robe was loose and languid, and the hem of his robe was fluttering in the night wind like surging clouds.

His appearance was so beautiful it was almost unreal, androgynous, with slightly upturned eyes that exuded a languid air. The light of a sky full of stars shone into his eyes, making them seem as if they were filled with a dazzling galaxy.

But the starlight vanished in an instant. When he turned to look at her, he revealed a cold and indifferent expression, with a hint of irritation and hostility.

Even though Su Muyao had never seen him before, her heart felt as if it were being clenched by an invisible hand. A mix of sourness, pain, and familiarity washed over her, making her subconsciously want to call out a name, but no sound came out of her throat.

"Since you were able to withstand the effects of the medicine and survive, I will keep my promise to you. Tell me, what do you want?"

"I made it clear from the beginning that I can't give you love, so don't waste this opportunity."

"What you've done is useless to me. Don't think you can control me."

She seemed to see herself speaking, word by word: "I want to learn mechanical formations."

"And how do we solve this?"

She was holding a model of a mechanism, specifically a model of a constellation mechanism.

He gave a sneer, then said, "Watch closely."

A lazy, indifferent voice resounded directly in her mind. The voice was both strange and familiar, like a brand etched into the depths of her soul.

Su Muyao saw the man raise his hand, his slender fingers landing on the same star mechanism as in the dark room, and the warmth of his fingertips seemed to travel through her memories.

“The stars revolve, guided by blood, first push the Horn constellation two spaces forward…” His fingertips slid across the star map, each movement incredibly precise.

"Remember, these two constellations must be in their positions simultaneously. If they are even slightly out of position, the mechanism will not only fail to open but will also automatically lock."

As the images in her memory receded like the tide, Su Muyao suddenly came back to her senses.

Who exactly is that man?

It feels just like the figure I saw when I looked into the eyes of the Chaos Beastman sculpture.

I still couldn't make out their exact appearance, only their eyes were very clear.

That look in his eyes felt so cold.

Su Muyao tried hard to calm herself down and not let herself think about anything else.

She quickly cut her finger, letting the blood drip onto the mechanism's key point.

At the same time, the fingertip landed on the star of the constellation Spica.

The sudden memory was so clear it didn't seem like a hallucination; the man's voice still echoed in my ears, carrying the power of a master strategist.

No, he set up and deactivated the constellation mechanism as if it were child's play.

This was a piece of cake for him.

She took a deep breath, suppressing the confusion in her heart, and slowly moved the star of Spica, following the guidance in her memory. A series of clicking sounds rang out.

The soft clicking of gears echoed in the dark room, like a giant beast awakening after a long slumber.

Su Muyao's hands kept moving without stopping.

When the last two stars were pushed to their designated positions and all the stars were in place, the entire constellation mechanism suddenly burst forth with dazzling silver light, and the star patterns of the Twenty-Eight Mansions seemed to come alive, flowing endlessly on the bronze surface.

The stone platform slowly parted to the sides, revealing a heavy stone door behind it.

The star map carved on the stone door echoes the mechanism. As the mechanism is correctly activated and turned, the stone door emits a dull sound and slowly opens inward. Light begins to shine through the door, as if an even more ancient and mysterious secret is hidden there.

When the door opened, Su Muyao's heart pounded even harder.

She sensed Wen Nanxi's location at that moment; he was inside.

At this moment, a breeze seems to be blowing, carrying the fresh scent of grass and trees.

Su Muyao looked through the door and found that the world behind it was completely different.

The ancient trees, with their gnarled branches resembling dragons, let in dappled sunlight through their canopies that block out the sun. The ground is covered with soft green grass, and all sorts of exotic flowers and herbs that I've never seen before grow freely. There are also many medicinal herbs that I've never seen before, some of which are still covered with dew. It seems like there's even the sound of a babbling brook. At first glance, it looks like a fairyland.

Su Muyao asked the system, "This isn't an illusion, is it?"

Su Muyao doubted how such a place could hide danger, and the scent emitted by these plants seemed perfectly normal.

"Probably not."

Without hesitation, Su Muyao quickly stepped forward.

As she passed through the stone gate and her feet touched the grass, the ground beneath her feet suddenly trembled violently.

Those exotic flowers that had been spreading out suddenly closed their petals, revealing the thorns hidden in their stamens.

The grass that was growing close to the ground suddenly grew wildly, and countless dark green vines, like giant pythons that had awakened, coiled around Su Muyao.

Suddenly, a strange spiritual plant sprang up from the grass not far away, its leaves instantly becoming sharp as knives, spinning and slicing out cold light as it attacked Su Muyao.

Su Muyao was already on guard, and in that instant, her expression changed, and with a swift flick of her wrist, the Azure Lotus Sword was already drawn.

She quickly cut off the vines that had wrapped around her.

But the vines stretched out and wrapped around her again, and suddenly thorns appeared on the sides of the vines, threatening to pierce Su Muyao.

With a light touch of her toes, Su Muyao leaped up like a butterfly, avoiding the entanglement of the vines, while simultaneously sweeping her sword horizontally.

A condensed cyan sword aura swept out, seemingly transforming into countless sword energies, shattering the oncoming vines and spiritual plants into dust.

But these spiritual plants seemed endless; as soon as the old vines were cut, new vines would sprout wildly from the soil.

Countless vines attacked again, their assault becoming increasingly fierce. As if they possessed a mind of their own, they even cooperated with each other.

Some wanted to entangle her, while others wanted to attack her; they were entangled from all sides.

Su Muyao spun around and drew her sword repeatedly. The Azure Lotus Sword danced in her hands, forming streaks of azure light that protected her completely.

Wherever the sword blades swept, vines snapped, and even a few plants that could spray poisonous thorns joined the attack. The thorns, carrying a fishy smell, were so dense that no one could dodge them.

Su Muyao activated her special ability to form a light shield to protect herself.

Therefore, these poisonous stingers could not harm her.

However, Su Muyao managed to carve out a path in that short time.

The system looked at the strange spiritual plants attacking from outside the light shield and the dense sword energy, and its voice trembled, "How can there be so many mutated plants here?"

“It’s more powerful than any mutated plant we’ve ever seen. It’s very similar to the mutated vines in the dense forest outside the Moon Clan’s territory, but it’s even more powerful than the spiritual plants there.”

"These things seem to have thoughts and consciousness, and they even cooperate."

Su Muyao also noticed this, "And have you noticed that the sealed vines and flowers we saw inside the stone wall outside are very similar to those here?"

"Yes, yes, many of them are the same. Could they be sealed here?"

"These are too aggressive."

Su Muyao said, "They don't seem to be mutated plants, but rather they are naturally like this and have the ability to attack. You can see that there is no aura of being attacked around them."

"That's even stranger, where exactly is Wen Nanxi?"

Suddenly they heard a thud.
