"Is that a name?" the Queen asked.
"It should be," Chu Feng said.
"Why is there another name? Could it be that someone is competing with that little girl, Xianhai Yu'er?" the Queen asked.
The word "competing" also caught Chu Feng's attention.
When a name appeared on that stone stele, it usually meant someone had conquered that sea region. Now that the name was becoming blurry and a new one was appearing, it most likely meant one thing — Xianhai Yu'er had encountered a rival. There was someone else who also possessed the strength to conquer the Primordial Star Sea.
In fact, it wasn't just Chu Feng and the Queen who were thinking this way. Everyone else on the warship had come to the same conclusion.
Chu Feng extended his keen hearing to eavesdrop on the discussions of those below.
He learned that the stele had originally displayed only Xianhai Yu'er's name, and the writing had been perfectly clear.
It was only a few days ago that another person's name appeared, but that name was extremely blurry, making it impossible to discern who it was.
However, once that name appeared, Xianhai Yu'er's name had also become blurred.
What was most eerie was that, although the Primordial Star Sea could not be entered every night, generally speaking, there were at least three days out of every ten when entry was possible.
But ever since the entrance stele had undergone its change, while the Primordial Star Sea still appeared at night, the entrance had remained sealed.
"Does this mean some other genius has entered the Primordial Star Sea? And they're competing with Xianhai Yu'er?"
"What on earth is happening? This has never occurred before."
At this moment, even the Totem Dragon Clan's Chief and the various Elders were speculating ceaselessly. They all realized that the changes to the Primordial Star Sea were no simple matter.
And what everyone currently agreed on was that Xianhai Yu'er might have encountered a rival.
The mere fact that this person could also display their name on the stele was proof enough of their extraordinary abilities.
"Yu'er, are you in trouble?" Unlike the others who were driven by pure curiosity, Chu Feng's heart had begun to fill with worry.
Time passed, and as the sky gradually darkened, the desert actually began to emit a faint glow.
The sky grew darker and darker, while the desert became increasingly brilliant…
People finally understood why this place was named the Primordial Star Sea.
In the vast, pitch-black world, countless specks of light twinkled everywhere.
The sensation was truly as though an entire sea of stars had materialized before their very eyes.
Not only the sea of stars, but the stele — which during the day could only be detected through special means — was now clearly visible to the naked eye.
Although the distance was still great, it was displayed before the crowd as a phantom projection, giving the impression that it was right in front of them.
But the situation remained the same — both Xianhai Yu'er's name and that of her rival on the stele were blurred.
However, most importantly, the Primordial Star Sea at this moment, though free of any visible barriers, gave off an indescribably dangerous feeling.
"Father, does this version of the Primordial Star Sea also prohibit entry?" Long Chengyu asked.
"This version of the Primordial Star Sea cannot be entered. If one forces their way in, they will be crushed by an invisible force — the lighter injuries would be wounds, but the more severe could be fatal."
"When the Primordial Star Sea is open for entry, it flows like ocean water, and a whirlpool appears at the entrance stele. The whirlpool manifests with a towering presence and possesses an immense suction force."
"No matter where you step into the Primordial Star Sea, you will be caught by that suction and forcibly drawn into the whirlpool. At that point, once you've fallen into the Primordial Star Sea, you cannot avoid entering even if you wanted to," the Totem Dragon Clan's Chief explained.
The others were only here to watch the spectacle. Since they couldn't enter anyway, after observing for a while, they returned to their respective rooms to rest.
