Douluo Continent: The Twin Holy Dragons of Light and Darkness, the Dragon Emperor Breaks Through the

Like breathing.

Jin Chen thought for a moment: "Did you try to get closer to it?"

The boy was silent for a moment: "Once."

It was three nights ago. I tried to get closer to that structure, but the closer I got, the brighter it became, so bright that I couldn't open my eyes, and then I woke up.

My heart was racing when I woke up, and it took a while for it to calm down.

Jin Chen said, "Then next time you see it, don't rush to get close to it. First, observe its movement patterns."

Wait until it forms a complete cycle before considering moving closer.

The boy looked at him: "Do you believe what I'm saying?"

Jin Chen said, "I believe you."

Otherwise, I wouldn't have come.

They sat in the cabin for a while longer.

The boy got up and poured Jin Chen a glass of water: "What do you think that hexagonal structure is?"

Jin Chen said, "It may be a spatial node that is forming."

When the spiritual energy of the divine realm permeates the lower realm, it will form stable convergence points in certain locations.

The structure you see is likely a convergence point.

The boy was silent for a moment: "Won't it affect the people nearby?"

Jin Chen said, "At present, it seems unlikely."

The fact that you can perceive it means that your perception is more acute than that of the average person.

However, its existence itself does not affect ordinary people.

The boy nodded: "That's good."

I was also worried it would affect the people in town.

In the afternoon, Jin Chen followed the boy to the beach he frequented.

The sea breeze was stronger than in the morning, and sand was being whipped up and hitting the boy's legs. He stopped at a relatively flat spot on the edge of the beach: "I usually get into that state by standing here."

Chapter 371 The Extended Light

Jin Chen asked, "Does it take a long time to prepare?"

The boy said, "No need."

As long as it's quiet enough around me, I can feel that state slowly approaching after standing there for a while, and then I can enter it.

They stood on the beach, with the sea breeze blowing from the front.

Jin Chen didn't speak; he was waiting for the boy to get into the zone on his own.

After a while, the boy's breathing began to slow down, and his gaze seemed to become more somber than before.

After a while, he said, "The structure is still there."

Just like the night before last, the edges were sharp, and light seemed to flow within.

Jin Chen stood beside him: "Has the position changed?"

The boy said, "No."

It remains in its original position, without shifting.

Jin Chen asked, "Can you see anything else around it?"

The boy was silent for a moment: "There are some thinner rays of light on its edges, as if they extend from it, into the distance, and disappear into the mist."

Jin Chen asked, "Do those rays of light that extend outward have a fixed direction?"

The boy said, "Yes."

They all point in the same direction.

Jin Chen followed his gaze and could only see the horizon where the sea met the sky and the moving clouds.

The boy looked away: "I just tried to get closer to it."

It still didn't work, but this time I could feel a boundary around its edge, as if it were wrapped in something.

Jin Chen said, "That means it's not fully open yet."

You can only approach it once it's open.

The boy nodded.

It was already evening when they returned to the cabin.

Jin Chen stood outside the hut for a while: "I'll stay at an inn in town tonight and come back tomorrow morning."

If you have any new updates tonight, don't rush to write them down; tell me tomorrow morning.

The boy said, "Okay."

The next morning, when Jin Chen opened the door of the small house, the boy was sitting at the table, holding a pen in his hand and a piece of paper spread out in front of him.

A clear hexagonal pattern was drawn on the paper, with a dotted line marking the edge.

He looked up: "I tried it again last night."

After approaching the limit of that brightness, I stopped and did not go any further.

Then I closed my eyes and felt that boundary thinning—not disappearing, but becoming thinner than before.

Jin Chen sat down at the table: "So, do you feel that after that boundary layer thinned out, did the structure undergo any new changes?"

The boy said, "No."

It retains its original shape, brightness, and the rhythm of its flow.

The edges have simply become thinner.

Jin Chen thought for a moment: "That means your perception of it is deepening."

You don't need to try again this morning. Take a rest first, and try again this afternoon.

In the afternoon, the boy got into the zone again. Jin Chen stood beside him, and the sea breeze blew from the side, making his robes flutter.

This time, he got into the zone in a shorter time than before.

When he opened his eyes, he exhaled: "The structure was still the same shape, but I saw that the rays of light extending out were longer than before."

They stretched out into the distance, as if connecting something.

Jin Chen didn't press further, but simply asked, "If those rays of light continue to extend, where do you think they will connect to?"

The boy was silent for a moment: "It could be connected to another structure, or it could be connected to different locations within the same space."

Jin Chen stayed in Haifeng City for five days.

During those days, the boy entered that state every day.

The hexagonal structure he saw did not change significantly, nor did the brightness of its edges increase noticeably, but he perceived more and more details.

On the evening of the fifth day, Jin Chen stood at the entrance of the inn, and the young man escorted him to the alley entrance.

He swayed his luggage on his shoulder: "I'm going back to Wuhun Capital first."

Continue to keep records, and if there are any significant changes, report them through the Spirit Hall's channels.

The boy nodded at the alley entrance: "If there are any new developments, I will send a message."

Jin Chen walked towards the city gate, while the boy stood still, watching him walk away.

Jin Chen returned to Wuhun Capital seven days later.

When he entered the courtyard of the offering hall, Ling Feng was sitting under the eaves drinking tea.

Qian Renxue sat at the stone table, flipping through a notebook in her hand.

Chen Yuan stood in the corner of the courtyard, with a cloud of mist floating in front of him, its shape well maintained.

Jin Chen sat down at the stone table, and Ling Feng did not rush to ask about the situation in Haifeng City.

Jin Chen poured himself a cup of tea, took a few sips, and then put the cup down: "The hexagonal structure is still there, its position is stable, and it hasn't shifted."

His description was much clearer than before, with rays extending from the edges, all pointing in the same direction.

Ling Feng said, "Did he try to get closer to that structure?"

Jin Chen said, "I've tried it. Once you get close enough, a boundary is triggered, making it difficult to go any further."

But he said that boundary is thinning.

Qian Renxue put down her notebook: "That is indeed a spatial node that is forming."

If that boundary continues to thin, he should eventually be able to cross it.

Ling Feng said, "The scene he sees at that time may have changed."

Chen Yuan dispersed the mist and walked to the stone table: "What is that hexagonal structure?"

Jin Chen turned his head and glanced at him: "It is currently speculated that it is a spatial node that is forming. After the spiritual energy of the divine realm permeates into the lower realm, it will form a stable convergence point in certain locations."

The structure he saw was probably one of those convergence points.

Chen Yuan nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

Tang San relit the furnace fire at dusk.

He was forging a small object; a piece of iron had been heated until it was red-hot and was being repeatedly hammered.

Ah Yin stood behind the counter, flipping through an old ledger, occasionally glancing up at the figure by the fireplace.

Tang San put the small object into cold water to quench it, and after a while, he took it out and placed it on the wooden board next to him.

Ah Yin turned her head to the side: "What's that?"

Tang San said, "The replacement blade at the top of the weathervane was worn too thin before, and it's prone to deformation."

This area has been thickened by one point.
