Chapter 686 The Warning from the Interdimensional Messenger and the Crisis of the Balance Anchor (1)

Inside the monitoring room of the Chaos Origin Land, the fused entity was intently watching the screen of the law monitoring device.

On the screen, the unknown consciousness signal from the depths of the chaotic space reappeared. This time, the signal's trajectory was clearer, and it was approaching the place of origin at a steady speed. Obviously, the other party was no longer hiding its tracks.

"The unknown consciousness is still three hours away from us."

The energy analysis report of the fused entity's signal showed that the other party's energy fluctuations contained neither chaotic attributes nor annihilation energy, but rather a "neutral balance" characteristic.

"Its energy is peculiar; it can resonate faintly with the laws of chaotic balance, yet it does not belong to any spatial system that we know of."

The gatekeeper connected the Absolute Termination Key to the monitor, attempting to decipher the consciousness information contained within the signal:

“I tried to decipher the signal using the energy of the laws. It seems that the other party is transmitting a vague ‘coordinate information’. The coordinates point to the ‘cross-dimensional gap’ region outside the multidimensional group and the chaotic space. It is an unknown space that no one has ever set foot in before.”

The golden-black outline of the primordial consciousness (the chaotic balance consciousness entity) floated beside the monitoring device, releasing strands of light of law around it, tracking the deep fluctuations of the signal:

"The other party did not release any hostility, but instead mixed a 'warning' emotion into its signals. Its energy level is far beyond ours, but it deliberately suppressed the intensity of its energy, seemingly expressing the intention of 'peaceful communication'."

An emergency signal came from the core of the multidimensional origin. After the leader of the red light spot sacrificed himself, the remnant soul of the star core consciousness, which temporarily took over the core defense command, reported that the "law anchor point" at the edge of the multidimensional group was experiencing abnormal energy fluctuations. The anchor point is the energy support point of the global sealing array. Once the anchor point is damaged, the coverage area of ​​the sealing array will shrink rapidly.

"The law anchor point and the signal trajectory of the unknown consciousness are on the same straight line!"

The fusion entity's expression instantly turned serious, and she quickly pulled up the location map of the anchor point.

"The unknown consciousness's path will pass through the law anchor points; its target may be the anchor points, not us!"

The gatekeeper immediately injected absolute annihilation energy into the core node of the global sealing array, strengthening the array's energy supply to the anchor point:

"I have reinforced the anchor's protective energy, but if the other side really wants to destroy the anchor, with our current strength, we may not be able to defend it. The other side's energy level is too high."

The original consciousness suddenly made a decision:

“We will proactively head to the anchor point of the law and the surface of the unknown consciousness. Near the anchor point, we can rely on the energy of the sealing array for support. If the other party is hostile, we can also mobilize the array patterns for defense in time. If the other party is really here to communicate, taking the initiative to meet will also show our sincerity.”

The fusion entity nodded and immediately summoned all the defensive forces of the Origin Land:

"Guardian!" the fusion entity shouted, its voice echoing across the land of origin. "You will immediately lead ten elite team members with me to the anchor point."

Upon hearing the commotion, the goalkeeper quickly assembled ten elite team members, each a seasoned veteran with exceptional skills.

"The remaining team members," the fusion entity continued, "will remain at the Origin Land, led by the Chaos Witness. You must closely monitor the state of the Chaos Stone and the sealing array, without the slightest slackening."

The Chaos Witness nodded solemnly, indicating that he understood the importance of the mission.

"If we encounter danger ahead," the merged entity continued, "you must immediately activate the spatial teleportation channel to come and provide support. Time is of the essence; there can be no delay!"

The team members responded in unison: "Yes!"

Half an hour later, everything was ready. The fused entity led the team into the spatial teleportation channel. With a flash of light, they instantly disappeared from their original spot.

After a brief spatial journey, the team led by the merged entity finally arrived at the law anchor point at the edge of the multidimensional group.

This is a place filled with mysterious power, and the surrounding space seems to be slightly distorted.

The anchor point is a pale golden crystal tower suspended in the void. The tower is covered with runes identical to those in the global sealing array, and is surrounded by interwoven gold and black law energy, which supports the stable operation of the sealing array.

"The energy fluctuations at the anchor point are more unusual than reported."

The fused entity reached out, sensing the energy flow at the anchor point. "The runes on the tower showed a subtle 'energy shift,' and this shift was consistent with the frequency of the unknown consciousness's signal fluctuations. It seems that the other party is influencing the energy state of the anchor point through signals."

The gatekeeper infused absolute annihilation energy into the defensive device at the anchor point, causing the runes on the device's surface to glow brightly, temporarily stabilizing the energy deviation.

“I have set up a ‘countermeasure rune array’ around the anchor point. If the other party tries to forcibly interfere with the anchor point, the rune array will automatically release law energy to counterattack.”

An hour later, a slight spatial tremor came from the depths of the chaotic space.

Everyone looked up and saw a pale blue spatial rift appear in the void, from which a humanoid silhouette emerged. The silhouette was composed of countless soft particles of light, surrounded by neutral and balanced energy; it was the physical form of the unknown consciousness.

"Hello, maintainers of balance."

The unknown consciousness spoke, its voice carrying an ethereal quality that transcended dimensions.

“I am an envoy from the ‘Interdimensional Alliance,’ number 734. You may call me ‘Empty.’ I have come to deliver a warning concerning the survival of all adjacent dimensional spaces.”

The fused entity lowered its guard, took a step forward, and conveyed a friendly signal:

"Welcome, Messenger of the Void. We sense the warning diagram you are conveying. Could you elaborate on the content of the warning? And why are you influencing the energy state of the Law Anchor Point?"

"The energy offset of the law anchor point is my 'signal positioning marker'."

The Sky Messenger explained, his light particles pulsating slightly, projecting a cross-dimensional star map. "The Cross-Dimensional Alliance has detected a 'Dimensional Devouring Energy' outside your dimensional cluster. This energy can forcibly devour the spatial laws of adjacent dimensions, transforming them into 'Void Energy'."

Your multidimensional clusters and chaotic space are the next targets of this devouring energy. The Law Anchors and Chaos Stones are the 'balancing anchors' of the dimensional clusters. The devouring energy will prioritize attacking these anchors, destroying the foundation of dimensional balance.

Everyone was shocked; they had never imagined that the threat would come from outside the dimension.

The gatekeeper pointed to the trajectory of the devouring energy marked on the star map: "How long until this energy arrives? How can we defend against its attack?"

"The energy-devouring process is moving very slowly; it is estimated that it will take another hundred years to reach your dimensional cluster."

The Sky Messenger's tone was grave. "But it will release 'erosion signals' prematurely, interfering with the energy state of the balance anchors, just as it is affecting the law anchors now. The only way to resist it is to find the 'cross-dimensional balance core,' which can build an 'anti-devouring barrier' around the dimensional cluster. The fragments of the core are scattered throughout the spaces you know, including the ruins of the 'Primordial Ruins' in the land of chaos's origin and the depths of the Dark Source Rift."

The merged entity was shocked. The Primordial Ruins had already been reduced to ruins within the pillar of void energy, and the Dark Source Rift was even more fraught with danger.

"The Primordial Ruins have been destroyed, but the Dark Source Rift still retains annihilation energy. How can we find the core fragments?"
