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

Ling Feng said, "His progress has already exceeded our initial expectations."

He is no longer passively observing, but has begun to actively explore the structure of that space.

Ning Rongrong wrote a few lines in the notebook: "His current method of exploration is to observe the shape changes of that ball of light from inside the passage."

Ling Feng said, "Let him continue at the current frequency. We'll send someone over once his exploration enters a new phase."

Chen Yuan went to the river again in the afternoon.

He stood by the river for almost an hour with the improved weather vane before returning.

When he walked into the courtyard, the hem of his robe was slightly disheveled by the river breeze, and he was still holding the weathervane in his hand: "I tested it by the river today, and the vertical feedback is more stable than before. It can also sense the ups and downs of the wind in advance."

Tang San sat by the stone table: "That means the new replacement leaf is working well."

Chen Yuan said, "It is indeed more stable than the previous area, and there is much less deformation than before."

In the evening, Tang San came over again.

He sat on the stone bench for a while: "If that boy from Haifeng City can reliably enter that structure, then we may need to send people there periodically to check on the changes in that structure."

Ling Feng said, "We will send people to check on it regularly."

Since that structure was formed after divine energy permeated the mortal realm, its changes deserve long-term monitoring.

Tang San nodded: "If you need any tools to help with your investigation, feel free to come to me anytime."

That night, Ling Feng and Qian Renxue sat under the eaves.

Qian Renxue said, "That boy is already able to enter and exit that structure steadily."

The next time he goes in, he might try to touch that light.

Ling Feng said, "After he touches that ball of light, the scene he sees may change. Someone will need to be next to him to record his dictation after he exits the state."

Qian Renxue said, "Jin Chen has been there once and is quite familiar with the situation there."

Ling Feng said, "Let's wait until he calms down before we talk about it."

He is still in the adjustment period.

The next morning, Chen Yuan arrived earlier than usual.

When he entered the courtyard, the fog had not yet dissipated. He placed the weather vane in the corner and stood in the courtyard, not in a hurry to start practicing, as if waiting for his breathing to be in harmony with the surrounding environment.

Ling Feng walked down from the corridor, looked at the wind vane in the corner, and saw that the vertical blades at the top were swaying slowly: "The wind is a little weaker today than yesterday."

Chen Yuan said, "When I was practicing by the river yesterday evening, I noticed that the wind changes direction before sunset. The wind direction changes in a very short time, and the fog doesn't react quickly enough, so it gets blown off course by the wind."

Ling Feng said, "Then you can go to the riverbank before sunset today and practice the wind direction changes during that time."

Chen Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go again this evening."

Ling Feng said, "Okay."

The third letter from Haifeng City arrived the morning before Jin Chen set off.

Jin Chen sat on the stone bench and opened the letter: "He said that he successfully touched that light last night."

He said the texture was softer than he had imagined, and it didn't feel like a solid structure, but rather like it was in a flowing state.

After he touched the light, the brightness of the light inside the passage changed, from semi-transparent to more transparent, as if one could see further through the walls.

Ling Feng sat on the veranda: "Did he describe what he saw further away?"

Jin Chen said, "He said he tried to look through the wall to see further, but he could only see a layer of light flowing deeper inside, and he couldn't penetrate to any further place."

Qian Renxue stood beside the stone table: "That means there are deeper layers inside that structure."

He has only entered the outermost layer so far.

Ning Rongrong wrote a few lines in the notebook: "After touching the central structure, the walls of the passage became more transparent."

This indicates that his exploration is progressing deeply and has already triggered deeper spatial structures.

Ling Feng said, "Once he can reliably penetrate the first layer of the wall, he may be able to see the details deeper into the structure."

Jin Chen folded the letter and put it away: "Then I'll set off for Haifeng City today."

Ling Feng said, "Okay."

Once you arrive, don't rush to approach him. Observe his current state first, and then get close after he naturally settles down.

Jin Chen nodded: "I understand."

He stood up and walked towards the courtyard gate.

The next afternoon, Jin Chen appeared at the city gate of Haifeng City.

He first put his luggage at the inn, then walked south along the coastline. When he arrived at the door of the small house, the door was ajar.

He knocked on the door, and the boy opened it. Seeing it was him, he stepped aside to make way for him: "You've come."

Jin Chen walked into the room and sat down in a chair: "After you touched that light last night, did you feel anything uncomfortable?"

The boy shook his head: "I don't feel uncomfortable."

After touching it, I felt even more awake than before, as if my vision had been opened up.

Jin Chen asked, "Did you try to enter again today?"

The boy said, "Not yet."

I wanted to wait until you arrived before trying.

Jin Chen said, "Then let's try it now."

I watched from the side.

The boy went outside and stood on the beach.

Chapter 374 Exploring the Secret Realm

The wind blew from the sea, and he closed his eyes, his breathing gradually slowing down, as if he were synchronizing his body with the surrounding environment.

Jin Chen stood a few steps away, without saying a word.

After about seven or eight breaths, the boy's body leaned forward slightly, as if he were moving in a certain direction.

After a while, he opened his eyes: "I went in."

The light was still there, its shape the same as last night.

The walls were a bit more transparent than last night, allowing light to be seen from further away, but details were still unclear.

Jin Chen said, "Then you don't need to rush to get closer today. First, observe the changes after the wall becomes transparent."

The boy nodded.

As evening fell, the boy got into the zone again, with Jin Chen standing beside him.

This time, he got into the zone much faster, finding the door in less than half the time it used to.

When he opened his eyes again, he slowly exhaled: "The walls are more transparent than they were in the afternoon. I can see a layer of light slowly flowing behind the walls."

The color of that layer of light was different from the first; it was brighter, as if it were seeping out from a deeper source.

Jin Chen said, "That means you are indeed moving closer to a deeper level."

The boy was silent for a moment: "I'll try again tomorrow."

Jin Chen said, "No rush."

You've come further than expected; just keep up the pace.

The next morning, Jin Chen stayed in the small house a little longer. The boy sat on the bedside, and Jin Chen sat at the table.

The boy asked him, "What do you think that brighter light is?"

Jin Chen thought for a moment: "It might be a structure formed after the spiritual energy of the divine realm penetrated deeper. If we can penetrate that wall, we might be able to see the true core of that structure."

After listening, the boy lowered his head and thought for a while: "Then I'll try again tomorrow."

That night, Jin Chen returned to the inn and stood by the window for a while.

The sea breeze blew in through the window, carrying the scents from the docks.

He closed the window, sat down on the edge of the bed, and closed his eyes.

There should be new developments tomorrow.

Those things that are growing continue to grow, and when tomorrow dawns, they will continue to move forward.

Jin Chen stayed in Haifeng City for five days.

On the evening of the fifth day, he stood for a while by the dock on his way back to the inn from the cabin.

A sea breeze was blowing across the water, carrying the scent of seaweed and damp sand, as several fishing boats were hauling in their nets and pulling ashore.

He watched for a while, then turned and went back to the inn.

On the morning of the sixth day, he knocked on the door of the boys' cabin.

The boy was sitting at the table with a piece of paper in front of him. The paper had a cross-sectional diagram of the hexagonal structure drawn on it, with finer lines and denser markings than before.

He looked up, as if waiting for Jin Chen to speak: "I went in three times last night."

Jin Chen sat down opposite him: "Three times?"

The boy said, "The first time was when it was just after nightfall. After entering, I found that the wall was much thinner than before, and I could see a brighter light behind the wall. The outline of the light was clearer than before."

After withdrawing, I tried again some time later, and this time I got a little closer.

The third time was more in-depth than the first two.

Jin Chen asked, "Does the light behind the wall have a specific shape?"

The boy turned the paper on the table so that Jin Chen could see the markings on it: "The third time, I saw the outline of the light behind me through the wall."

It was a slowly rotating ring structure with a very thin surface and its edges constantly glowing, as if it were burning.

Inside the ring was a layer of flowing matter, denser than light, resembling a slowly moving liquid.

He pointed to the pattern drawn on the paper and touched that spot with his finger. "I stopped at the end of the passage and didn't go any further."

But I could sense that if I went through that wall, I could directly reach the circular structure.
