Chapter 1198.
Hyperspace Star Ocean Network, one of the strongest black technologies of the Empire.
This virtual network connected the sixty-five star clusters and trillions of subjects under the Empire’s jurisdiction through the Stargate Hub, covering tens of thousands of light-years of star territory, allowing people far apart to communicate without hindrance.
The Star Ocean Network was undoubtedly one of the cornerstones of the Sacred Light Empire’s rule, without the existence of this incomparably powerful network, the empire would have fallen apart long ago.
What made people feel incredible was that two people who were 10,000 light-years away from each other could communicate with each other through the Star Ocean Network in terms of images and language, with a delay of no more than 1 microsecond!
Wang Chen simply couldn’t imagine how such technology was created.
Every citizen of the empire, regardless of whether they were adults or not, could purchase and use instruments and equipment that accessed the star ocean, and the highest-end models could even be implanted into a person’s brain, realizing a barrier-free and unlimited network connection.
Such a powerful access instrument is naturally extremely expensive, the original body certainly can not afford to buy, Wang dust is now using the standard amount of products issued by the academy.
For the vast majority of Imperials, the Star Ocean Network is like the second world, an important way to acquire knowledge and experience and entertainment, and is an indispensable existence.
It can even be used to make money.
The original body had once worked as a chaperone and substitute trainer in the Star Ocean Network, only that this method of earning money was rolled up to the point of no return due to the number of people who chose to do it, so he gave it up after a short period of time.
But usually at night, the original body also studied and exercised in the middle of the Star Ocean Network.
He had no capital, and all he could rely on was himself!
It was a pity that it was a mistake for someone.
The moment Wang Chen accessed the Star Ocean Network, the hairs on his body stood up, and a great sense of danger arose within him, as if death was about to come the next moment.
In the nick of time, Wang Chuan did not panic and his mind became calm.
With his powerful divine soul consciousness, he was keenly aware of a strange fluctuation originating from the Virtual Access Instrument, which was silently scanning his brain.
Wang Chen did not understand the origin of this fluctuation at all, but there was no doubt that it was the source of the danger.
However, there was no relevant information in Lu Yuan’s memory.
Was this a coincidence or an accident?
Just as Wang Chen was about to take off the Virtual Access Instrument immediately, a simple and ancient Dao Tablet steeply surfaced in his sea of consciousness, and the light it emitted instantly illuminated his Divine Soul Consciousness.
The strange fluctuations then disappeared.
Wang Chen froze.
The feeling of danger had disappeared, as if what he had just experienced was merely an illusion.
However, the ancient dao tablet that had materialized in the sea of consciousness was real, and it had obviously accompanied Wang Chuan’s soul consciousness to this world, providing protection in the most critical moment.
Wang Chen could not help but let out a long breath.
Although there were still countless doubts in his heart, what was certain was that he had successfully survived the first major doubt after his descent.
Now Wang Chuan guessed that the strange fluctuations from the Virtual Access Instrument were not specifically against himself, but rather, the Star Ocean Network itself had defensive measures, like a network firewall, to ward off foreign invasions and viruses.
Then Wang Chuan, who had soulwalked into this world, was his divine soul consciousness considered an intruder to the Star Ocean Network.
Or a virus?
If Wang Chuan’s guess was right, then those descendants of the Haotian Realm in the past, nine times out of ten, were planted on this.
They didn’t have the cover and protection of the Taikoo Dao Monument!
And as these high-ranking cultivators knew nothing about the technological world, plus the targets of their takeovers didn’t know the secrets, they followed their original body’s memories of their habit of using the access meter to log into the Star Ocean Network, and as a result, they were scanned as virus invaders.
Inviting the scourge of killing.
The most horrifying thing was that the result of a soul in the Star Ocean Realm was that the original body in the Haotian Realm would have to fall with it.
Unless there is a scapegoat puppet to die in its place!
And this sudden crisis made Wang Chen intuitively realize the ferocity of the Star Ocean Realm.
He silently exited the Star Ocean Network.
After pondering for a moment, Wang Chen tried to leave the Star Ocean Realm now and return to the Haotian Realm.
If he succeeded, then the information he had already understood and grasped would be enough to return to Du Jiniang.
As a result, Wang Chen failed.
The rules of this world were powerful and tight, and his divine soul consciousness was simply unable to penetrate this incredibly thick world barrier to accurately locate the Haotian Realm, and the possibility of returning immediately did not exist.
The results of his attempts made Wang Chen realize that he had to become strong in the Star Ocean Realm, strong enough to touch the origin of this world, before he could complete his return.
He had to take his time, one step at a time!
Such an outcome was definitely something that Wang Chen had not anticipated beforehand, he had originally thought that it would take at most a year or two to complete Du Jiuniang’s mission, but now he estimated that it would take a long, long time.
Wang Dust’s heart had long been honed to be extremely resolute, and despite things not going his way, he didn’t get frustrated or depressed, but instead strengthened his belief in long-term exploration.
Exploring this brand new great world alone was also an unattainable experience for Wang Chen!
As a matter of fact, almost every one of those great powers in the Immortal Cultivation World had gone through several or even a dozen worlds of trials and tribulations, constantly accumulating power and experience before finally standing on top of the pinnacle.
Once the decision was made, Wang Chen no longer had any hesitation and connected to the Star Ocean Network once again.
The strange fluctuations from the virtual access meter appeared again.
Interestingly, it no longer brought any sense of danger to Wang Chuan, and the Taikoo Dao Monument in the sea of consciousness had already fallen silent.
The next moment, thousands of shining stars appeared in Wang Chen’s field of vision.
He knew that each star represented a virtual space, covering areas such as socialization, gaming, learning, entertainment, competition, and so on, in which people were able to find any way to consume their time.
And it was abundant.
Wang Chen even saw one of those black holes hidden behind the bright stars.
That was the entrance to the Darknet!
The Darknet was the bottom space of the Star Ocean Network, filled with all sorts of forbidden and exciting data streams, and if an ordinary person went in and became addicted to it, they would most likely lose their consciousness forever.
There is light and there is darkness, since the emergence of the Star Ocean Network, the Darknet has always existed.
It had never died out.
Wang Chen’s gaze left these unfathomable black holes and turned to the star closest to him.
The moment he completed the lock, his consciousness instantly entered the star.
In front of him, an endless light opened up, occupying Wang Chuan’s field of vision before quickly fading to reveal the real scene.
Wang Chen realized that he was sitting in the audience of a giant martial arts dojo, and in the center ring, two warriors were fighting to the death, surrounded by wildly cheering and shouting spectators.
The atmosphere of the scene was so hot that it exploded!
Star Ocean Arena.
A name instantly surfaced in Wang Chen’s mind.
