Su Jiancheng clapped exaggeratedly, the "clap clap" sound echoing clearly in the small space.

"The little princess's intelligence is extremely important, well done!"

He looked over and said, "I need more precise position offset angles and estimated straight-line distances. You should be able to handle that, right?"

Bai Mengyan closed her eyes and did not reopen the "Anywhere Door" style investigation. She recalled, "The direction you predicted earlier is not a big problem. Looking from our position to the starting position, it is about 30 degrees south of east, within 15 meters in a straight line."

"I haven't re-inspected whether the specific route is smooth; it depends on the actual situation."

Su Jiancheng snapped her fingers. "OK, no problem. Leave the rest to me. You can try it with confidence. I'll remind you before you take action."

Bai Mengyan nodded, and Cheng Kaixi gave her a reassuring look. She looked at the solid inner wall of the spherical barrier, closed her eyes again, and tried to contact Leng Yuexiu.

The method of probing by consciousness was not feasible, but there was another way: the rings they wore close to their bodies, which served as tokens of their love.

Before the Seventh War Zone came into contact with the crystal energy body and a series of changes, the rings already had the ability to connect different time and space. So now that they are in the same time and space, a mere tree cannot block the innate spatial connection between the rings.

She had always carefully protected the ring, and even when she was attacked by a mental zombie and her own time-based ability was used to reverse time and space to achieve rebirth, the ring remained undamaged.

With Bai Mengyan's mental control, a ring shimmering with dazzling light floated out from her collar, mysteriously detaching from the necklace around her neck and drifting in front of her.

As if sensing something, she clasped her hands together, pressed the ring against her palms, and slowly poured spatial energy into it.

Meanwhile, Leng Yuexiu, who possessed another pair of rings, was focused on supporting the wind shield, waiting for the tree crystal energy to fuse and stabilize.

The ring he wore close to his chest emitted a warm sensation, floated up against gravity, and emerged from his collar, hovering in front of him, constantly flashing with the unique silver light of Bai Mengyan's spatial system.

"Xiu, Xiu, are you there?"

Bai Mengyan's voice, tinged with worry and uncertainty, came out softly, as if she were afraid of disturbing something.

Hearing Bai Mengyan's call, Leng Yuexiu, whose expression was serious, softened his coldness and replied, "I'm here."

Upon hearing Leng Yuexiu's reply, Bai Mengyan couldn't help but smile.

Because Bai Mengyan communicates using her thoughts, Leng Yuexiu's voice is also transmitted back to her consciousness, so others cannot hear or sense it at all.

Bai Mengyan continued the conversation with joy and excitement, "That's great! I didn't expect the ring could actually break through the double barrier. How's the situation on your end?"

Upon hearing Bai Mengyan's explanation, Leng Yuexiu couldn't help but have some questions. He didn't ask immediately but first explained his situation to her so as not to worry her.

"Everything is normal here. The energy of the first-order crystal body has been fully input into the dendritic crystal. The two energies are still merging. I need a little more time. How are things on your end? Is everyone safe?"

Bai Mengyan finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing about Leng Yuexiu's situation. "We're all safe, don't worry. The spatial barrier, combined with the strong protection of the light system, didn't give any plants a chance to grow in. Jiancheng said they've lost contact with you, and they plan to forcefully break through the blockade to meet up with you in seven or eight minutes."

Leng Yuexiu silently estimated the fusion progress of the tree crystal in front of him. He felt that seven or eight minutes was a bit of a stretch, and it would take at least fifteen minutes to completely fuse it.

He immediately objected, "Xiao Yan, tell Jian Cheng that I need at least fifteen minutes. The tree crystal is entering the final fusion stage, and I don't want any unexpected complications to ruin everything."

"Ideally, you can break through after I've harvested the tree crystal in fifteen minutes. I'll give you a signal then."

"Signal? If the communication I'm maintaining ends or is interrupted, how will you give me a signal?" Bai Mengyan asked, puzzled.

After all, the spatial sensing obtained through the ring was always initiated by her, and she possessed both spatial and temporal abilities; there had never been an exception.

Leng Yuexiu affirmed, "I suspect that the spatial sensing effect of this ring requires energy to activate."

You possess a natural talent for spatial manipulation, which you could sense even before awakening. After awakening your spatial abilities, its use becomes even more unimpeded.

As for me, I'll need to activate my special abilities. The communication might not be as smooth as yours, but establishing a connection shouldn't be a problem. We can try it out after this is over.

Leng Yuexiu's speculation is not without reason; we'll find out whether it works after we try it.

Bai Mengyan did not sever the spatial connection established through the ring. With her eyes still closed, she loudly relayed Leng Yuexiu's message.

“Su Jiancheng, Captain Leng said he needs another fifteen minutes to wait for the final fusion of the tree crystal. Once the time is up and he succeeds, we will make our move to break through.”

Bai Mengyan's sudden outburst startled everyone. They had just been quietly discussing the possible emergencies and how to deal with them.

Upon receiving news of Leng Yuexiu personally verified by Bai Mengyan, the group's somewhat uneasy emotions instantly subsided.

There is no news more reassuring than knowing that Leng Yuexiu is safe and under control.

Su Jiancheng's tense shoulders visibly relaxed a bit, and he smiled knowingly, "Yes, sir!"

Upon hearing Su Jiancheng's reply, Bai Mengyan continued to focus her attention on the perception of her mind.

She said to Leng Yuexiu, "Okay. I just relayed your message to Jian Cheng, and he sounded very happy. Let's proceed according to your plan. After the connection is severed, you can try to activate it. Do you have thirty seconds?"

“That’s enough,” Leng Yuexiu finally had a chance to ask, “What was that double barrier you mentioned earlier?”

Bai Mengyan relayed her findings to Leng Yuexiu: her consciousness probe could not spontaneously penetrate the area covered by the mutated banyan tree, and she had comprehended a simplified version of the "Anywhere Door" and the view overlooking the mutated banyan tree landscape.

Leng Yuexiu pondered for a moment, "It might be the instantaneous energy burst generated when the mutated banyan tree successfully advanced from the first level to the second level with the help of the energy of the first-level crystal body. This is similar to the significant mutation that occurs when a superhuman advances."

Currently, the members of their team are experiencing a surge in power when they advance from Tier 1 to Tier 2, often creating a very strong impact that seems completely out of character for this tier.

In fact, this unconscious energy release state is a manifestation of the uncontrolled surge of the target-level energy field.

In layman's terms, when you go from level one to level two, what you see is a surge of energy at the second level without any energy control, so it looks like the peak state of the second level, as if the process of advancing has crossed an entire major level.

In reality, when you successfully advance to the second tier, the explosive power you can unleash when using your special ability is nowhere near that of the advanced state.
