Ye Zhongming's words were essentially equivalent to a high-speed ripple; he had no way to solve the problem, and the disappointment of the water elemental peak giant dragon was evident.
However, when Ye Zhongming fell silent for a moment and focused on the space-time gate, the hope in Chao Yang's heart was reborn amidst despair.
Yes, this did not mean that Ye Zhongming could resolve the issue. At the very least, it indicated that this person had some thoughts in his mind.
Thoughts, to some extent, represent feasibility.
"You..."
Chao Yang's voice trembled slightly as he spoke.
It was not gratitude, nor excitement, but... fear.
Faced with the flicker of hope that had just ignited, there was a terror of it shattering again.
Ye Zhongming did not answer Chao Yang immediately; instead, he led the Red Boy closer to the closed door, examining it almost inch by inch.
Chao Yang followed closely behind, intently watching what Ye Zhongming was doing. Although he did not fully understand, the more he looked, the more it felt like something significant was happening.
"Can you... open it so I can see inside?"
Ye Zhongming stared at the door for almost half an hour before finally speaking to Chao Yang.
Chao Yang quickly agreed, telling Ye Zhongming to wait a moment before swiftly flying away. When he returned, he was accompanied by another white starry giant dragon.
Ye Zhongming looked at them, feeling very curious about how many peak realm dragons there were in the Dragon Race. Were there really so many great masters that peak realms were everywhere?
The newly arrived peak starry giant dragon merely glanced at Ye Zhongming and said nothing. It was likely that Chao Yang had already informed it. It then landed beside the space-time gate and nodded to Chao Yang.
The water elemental peak giant dragon raised its Dragon Claw, and a pure, crystalline droplet of water appeared before the starry giant dragon. The droplet continuously transformed, starting from the size of a human head, gradually compressing and reducing in size until it became the size of an apple.
Afterward, the droplet slowly settled on the starry giant dragon's two front claws, forming a thin protective layer on them.
At this moment, Chao Yang opened his previously closed eyes and signaled to the starry giant dragon. The newly arrived giant dragon paused for a few seconds, and then its claws, wrapped in the layer of water, began to glow as they slowly and firmly descended in front of the space-time gate.
Ye Zhongming watched as those dragon claws slowly pierced into the space-time gate, using force to pull this magical door open.
"If you want your clansmen to enter and explore, it requires two starry dragons of the same clan to release the defensive skills from both sides simultaneously to fully open it. Today, you are only looking, so I only brought one," Chao Yang explained.
"The part close to the space-time gate is not too strong against the space-time storm. With the defensive capability of a starry giant dragon or dark elemental dragon, they can withstand it for a while."
Ye Zhongming looked inside while Chao Yang continued to explain.
However, the King of Cloud Summit's attention was entirely focused on the interior of the opened space-time gate.
It was the first time he had seen a space-time storm.
It was hard to describe Ye Zhongming's feelings in that moment because he felt a strange familiarity with the rapidly moving lines of light.
In the initial seconds, he didn’t realize anything; but later, Ye Zhongming suddenly felt that this sensation was somewhat similar to... the moments before his death in his previous life when he had a hazy awareness.
However, when he died in his previous life, it had been too sudden; by the time he realized what was happening, his body had already been pierced, and Ye Zhongming was not very certain.
He really wanted to reach out and touch these seemingly beautiful space-time storms, but he dared not.
Even if the things inside were truly related to his rebirth, Ye Zhongming didn’t believe he could remain unharmed amidst such a mysterious storm.
