Chapter 453: Transition
Outside the star gate of Youhui City, Ji Xinghuo's appearance did not attract many people's attention, even though he was a real dragon.
The appearance of Meteorite Fire and the Flames was not outstanding.
Although for other humans, every real dragon has a tall and strong body, a noble and majestic temperament, and an arrogant demeanor, but among the real dragons, Meteorite Fire and the Flames can only be described as mediocre.
Of course, no one dared to underestimate him.
Ji Xinghuo exuded the aura of a legendary strongman, plus the identity of a real dragon, which was enough to walk sideways among the classes below the real dragon.
He did not go to the jump array, but flew out of Youhui City.
Tens of kilometers away.
Ji Xinghuo landed and triggered the star jump. After 20 seconds, a burst of light swept across his body and moved 3,500 kilometers to the east.
Then jump again.
The maximum distance of the fourth-level star jump is about 3,500 kilometers. Each activation takes 20 seconds and consumes about 3,000 points of star power.
With Ji Xinghuo's current star power, he can jump 12 times in a row.
Then Qinghong will take him to jump, and they will move in turns. After Qinghong is exhausted, he will wait until his star power is restored to continue jumping. It is expected that he can reach the distant East Emperor Sea in just one star realm day.
Although using the Dynasty's jump array is faster and more labor-saving, it will leave a record of his whereabouts.
Ji Xinghuo doesn't want to be found out where he is going.
The light flickers and the space is distorted.
Jump!
Jump...
After four consecutive star realm jumps, Ji Xinghuo has been more than 10,000 kilometers away from Youhui City and is about to enter the fifth jump.
However, when the light swept his whole body into the void, Ji Xinghuo's brain felt like a needle prick, time slowed down, as if it stopped flowing, and the distorted space channel in front of him became full of light and shadow, and countless streams of light changed.
Wanxiang Senluo was stimulated!
Extremely dangerous!
Ji Xinghuo saw the future scene. The void channel formed by the star realm jump suddenly collapsed, as if it was squeezed and shattered by the huge amount of sea water. The chaotic energy in the void rushed in, destroying everything, including himself.
At the same time, he felt a repulsive force.
The power of this repulsive force was so great, endless, and boundless that Ji Xinghuo felt like he was fighting against the entire star realm and against some kind of rules.
The picture was still.
A halo appeared in Ji Xinghuo's right eye, and a broken gem like a glass bead emerged, instantly extracting more than 10,000 points of star power, and stretching out an invisible membrane outside the body to protect Ji Xinghuo's body.
The next moment, the jump channel collapsed instantly, and the surging void energy submerged Ji Xinghuo.
He was squeezed out of the void and forced to stop the jump.
The scene in front of him changed.
Ji Xinghuo appeared in the sky and smashed into the forest below uncontrollably, knocking down a large number of trees.
He stood up from the pit, covered in dust.
The dragon-patterned armor completely exploded, revealing a solid body of muscles. The dark gold dragon-shaped tattoo on the chest flickered, and it flew into the sky to reveal the figure of the Annihilation Dragon. Qinghong also rolled down beside it, revealing its true form.
"Puff..."
Ji Xinghuo opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale, his eyes full of fear.
"Damn it!"
"Will there be a car accident during the star realm jump?" He cursed. If it weren't for the Wanxiang Star Pupil, he would have died without even a trace of dregs left.
The injury was very serious.
Although it looked fine on the surface, it was a mess inside.
Ji Xinghuo felt very weak. The void energy just now impacted his whole body. If it weren't for that layer of membrane to offset most of it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He turned his head and looked.
Doomsday and Qinghong were also affected and suffered serious injuries. Fortunately, they were not as serious as himself and would recover soon.
Jiuyou was not affected in the Dark Sphere.
"What's going on?"
Ji Xinghuo's face was blank.
There have been so many star jumps before, and nothing went wrong. Why did such a tragic accident happen today?
He flew to the side and sat down. While running electromagnetic oscillation to promote the recovery of all the cells in the body, he recalled the situation just now.
Why did the jump channel suddenly collapse?
Could it be because he passed through some special space? However, the electromagnetic induction scan showed a vast primeval forest all around. Except for monsters and a few aliens, no spatial anomalies were found.
Moreover, the feeling when the jump channel collapsed suddenly appeared, and he was rejected by some rules.
"Restrictions on star jumps?"
Ji Xinghuo guessed.
"But I have never heard of this kind of situation in the jump array." He was puzzled and thought about the difference between the jump array and the star jump.
Star jump is a superpower that can be used anytime and anywhere.
The jump array requires the construction of a huge building structure and a lot of resources. It must be available on both the starting point and the destination. The coordinates and direction are fixed and cannot be changed. It also consumes ether crystals when used.
Compared with the two, the advantages of star jump are too great. It is convenient, fast, and very economical.
Thinking about it like this, I felt something was wrong.
Ji Xinghuo's intuition told him that if there were two ways to achieve the same goal, but there were such huge differences, and one of the methods was absolutely advantageous, then there must be corresponding costs or side effects.
This is like the law of conservation of energy, and the rules of the star realm will also be conserved.
"Star realm jumps are temporarily unavailable."
Ji Xinghuo was afraid that he would lose his life, so he rested for a few hours on the spot and only set off after his injuries were mostly healed.
This is still in the Yuanci Territory, but it is close to the border.
"Jiuyou."
Ji Xinghuo summoned Jiuyou, who was not injured and in good condition, and said to it: "Transform into a dragon eagle."
Jiuyou immediately understood what to do. His dark body quickly expanded and stretched, and in a few seconds he turned into a handsome dragon eagle with a wingspan of about 20 meters. His feathers were red as if burning, emitting a hot feeling.
This is a Can-level Yanxia Dragon Eagle.
When in the Titanium Ring City, Ji Xinghuo once met someone riding a Yanxia Dragon Eagle, so he took the opportunity to let Jiuyou contact it under the pretext of admiring it, and gained the ability to transform into a Yanxia Dragon Eagle.
The mimicry has just been upgraded to level six, and it can only simulate the appearance and strength, and does not have the supernatural power of the Yanxia Dragon Eagle.
But it is enough.
Ji Xinghuo just used it as a mount. He jumped on the back of the Yanxia Dragon Eagle, and Jiuyou flapped his wings and took off, like a ball of fire across the sky.
The Yanxia Dragon Eagle is a very good flying mount.
But compared to the dragon, it still has a big gap, which is in line with the strength and identity of the meteorite, and it will not attract attention.
Flying hundreds of kilometers to the east.
Ji Xinghuo saw a city from afar, belonging to a true dragon family with a fiefdom. It was not large in scale, with a population of only two to three million. Except for the lack of a jump array, it had everything it should have.
The Yanxia Dragon Eagle flew into the city. The guards saw that it was a legendary true dragon man, and they did not dare to stop it.
Ignoring the eyes of others, Ji Xinghuo stayed for a moment and left.
He bought several stone tablets in the city, all of which were related to the star space, jump array diagrams, and transmission, teleportation, etc. In one of them, "The Road to Jump", he finally found the answer.
"So that's it!"
After reading it, Ji Xinghuo's face suddenly became clear.
In this book specializing in jumps, the advantages and disadvantages of jump arrays and star jumps are compared in detail, and the pros and cons of both are analyzed.
As previously speculated, star jumps are indeed flawed.
Anyone who uses astral jumps within a time period has a limit on the number of times and distances. Once the limit is exceeded, the jump will be rejected by the astral space, causing the jump to fail. At the least, the jump will be forcibly terminated, and at the worst, it will be destroyed by the void.
No one knows why this is the case.
Since the first alien who mastered astral jumps appeared, this phenomenon has existed, and it seems to be the basic rule of the astral world.
After research, it was found that the restrictions on astral jumps will gradually relax as the level of the ability increases.
The time period will become shorter.
As the number of jumps increases, the jump distance will also increase.
"The Road to Jump" records very detailed research data. The use cycle of the first-level astral jump is 137 star hours.
Starting from the first jump, within 137 star hours, a maximum of 23 jumps can be made, and the total jump distance cannot exceed 600 dragon distances, equivalent to 421 kilometers.
The restrictions will be relaxed with each level of astral jump.
At present, Ji Xinghuo's astral jump is level 4.
The jump cycle is 73 star hours, the jump number is 101 times, and the total jump distance cannot exceed 22850 dragon distances, which is approximately equivalent to 16000 kilometers.
Ji Xinghuo calculated it.
In the past, he only jumped between Titanium Ring City and Youhu City, with a distance of about 8000 kilometers. The number and distance did not exceed the limit, so the rejection of the star realm rules was not triggered.
And today, after four consecutive jumps, the total distance exceeded the limit during the fifth jump.
"It was a close call..."
Ji Xinghuo is still in shock.
Regarding the restrictions on star realm jumps, most people will not pay attention to them, nor can they access them. I shared the star realm jump from Qinghong, but I didn't think about it, and I almost lost it directly.
"The Road to Jump" also mentioned that if you can resist the destructive impact of void energy, you can ignore the restrictions.
However, even the Star Shepherd Saint finds it difficult to do so.
Perhaps you have to reach the realm of the Infinite Realm Master to make infinite jumps.
"Infinite Realm Master..."
Ji Xinghuo remembered the words of the Void Spirit Guest, which was too far away.
At that time, Xu Lingke took him from the Bloody Plateau and directly jumped to the Thousand Peaks Forest, a distance of more than 30,000 kilometers. It can be inferred that Xu Lingke's star realm jump has reached at least level 5, and it is likely to be higher.
"I'd better go through the jump array honestly." Ji Xinghuo gave up the idea of relying on his own jump.
He now knows the deep principle of the jump array.
It is also a jump, and the biggest role of the array is to build a more stable channel to resist the rules of the star realm. The consumed ether crystal energy is actually the price paid by the person who replaces the jump, maintaining the conservation of the jump without triggering the limit.
Therefore, the jump array is not limited by the number and distance, and can be used with confidence.
Ji Xinghuo rode the Yanxia Dragon Eagle for a day and a night.
Entering the "Huangjue Territory" adjacent to the Yuanci Territory, this is a dragon territory ruled by a sword-backed dragon king family. He arrived at the nearest city with a jump array, passed the identity verification, and entered the array.
Ji Xinghuo did not jump directly to the Chaoge Territory, but chose to take a detour and jump to the center of the East Emperor Sea, the "Xingya Territory" where the Bibo Dragon King is located.
The space was twisted and the world was changing.
After a long transition, Ji Xinghuo's eyes returned to normal and he found himself standing in an open-air array square. The surrounding scenery was pleasant, and the endless white buildings and green plants formed a unique urban landscape.
The sky was clear, with cotton-like white clouds floating in the sky, and a moist sea breeze blew in the distance, fresh and comfortable.
Ji Xinghuo seemed to have sensed something and opened the interface of Wanxiang Xingtong.
Suddenly, his eyes widened.
The two arrows at the edge of the interface had not changed for a long time, but at this time, one of them was obviously larger, and the direction was clearer and more specific!
