The mysterious elf pointed her slender finger at the deep darkness ahead. Everyone looked in her direction and held their breath. In the endless nothingness, a huge vortex slowly rotated, like the gaping mouth of a cosmic beast, emitting a heart-pounding suction. It was not pure black, but flashed with a strange dark purple light, like a ghost lurking in the darkness, quietly devouring everything around it.

"That is... the entrance to the abyss of the universe..." The mysterious elf's voice was like a whisper from hell, with a hint of despair and fear, "All matter sucked into it will cease to exist..."

Before he finished speaking, the spaceship began to vibrate violently, and a strong suction force pulled the spaceship towards the huge vortex. Although the Blue Star Guardian tried his best to control the spaceship and try to get rid of this suction force, it was all in vain. The spaceship was like a fallen leaf, being ruthlessly sucked into the entrance of the abyss of the universe.

"Hold on tight!" Zhang Cheng shouted, tightly grasping the handrail beside him. Kelinda also grabbed Moyi, her face pale.

As soon as it entered the vortex, the spaceship was drawn into a chaotic nebula. The dark red nebula was no longer calm, but rolled and surged like boiling magma, with all kinds of energy turbulence raging like dancing giant pythons, ready to tear the spaceship into pieces at any time.

The spaceship was shaking violently, like a small boat in the storm, and could capsize at any time. Everyone held on to everything around them, their faces becoming extremely ugly.

Suddenly, a dazzling stream of golden energy shot out from the depths of the nebula and hit the side of the spacecraft fiercely. The spacecraft made a harsh metallic twisting sound, and the hull shook violently. Zhang Cheng was knocked away by the impact and fell heavily on the bulkhead, with a sharp pain in his chest. He struggled to get up, but felt weak all over, and his eyes went dark.

"Zhang Cheng!" Klinda exclaimed and wanted to go over to help him, but was hit by another energy flow and staggered back.

Star Knight and Lightbringer were also hit by the energy flow, and they both groaned, obviously injured. The energy shield of the spacecraft flickered and could collapse at any time.

The Blue Star Guardian gritted his teeth and desperately controlled the spacecraft, trying to find a glimmer of hope in the violent nebula. But he knew that the hope was slim. The energy of this nebula was too violent, and the spacecraft's energy shield could not withstand it for a long time.

The mysterious elf curled up in the corner, trembling all over, and kept muttering: "It's over... Everything is over..."

"No, it's not over yet!" Zhang Cheng gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain, and slowly stood up. His eyes flashed with determination. He knew that he could not give up. For Clinda, for Blue Star, and for all the people who were still waiting for him to return, he had to live!

He looked at Klinda and forced a smile, "Don't worry, I'm fine..."

He stretched out his hand, wanting to touch Clinda's face, but his hand fell down weakly...

Seeing Zhang Cheng fall, Kelinda felt heartbroken. She held back her tears, gritted her teeth, and took a deep breath. A dark purple light gushed out from her body, like a blooming mandala, expanding rapidly, trying to cover everyone. This was the power of the devil, a powerful force that could resist energy shocks. However, the violent energy turbulence in the nebula was like countless sharp blades, madly attacking this fragile protective shield, causing it to tremble violently and ripple, as if it would break at any time.

"We can't go on like this!" Seeing this, the Blue Star Guardian's face was solemn. He knew that although Klinda was powerful, it was too difficult for her to support the protective shield alone in this environment. He put his hand on Klinda's shoulder without hesitation, and a vast sea of blue energy poured into the protective shield. The originally shaky purple light shield suddenly became much more stable, flashing with blue and purple light.

"Thank you..." Klinda looked at the Blue Star Guardian with gratitude, beads of sweat oozing from her forehead. Maintaining this protective shield required a lot of energy, and even with the help of the Blue Star Guardian, she felt overwhelmed.

The Blue Star Guardian shook his head slightly, his face becoming paler. His strength was being consumed rapidly, and the energy turbulence in the nebula was far stronger than he had imagined. He felt like he was fighting against a raging ocean and could be swallowed up at any time.

"Cough..." Zhang Cheng covered his chest and struggled to sit up, his face as pale as paper. He saw that Klinda and the Blue Star Guardian were doing their best to maintain the protective shield, and he felt powerless.

"How are you?" Kelinda asked with concern, her eyes full of worry.

"I'm fine..." Zhang Cheng forced a smile and tried to stand up, but he felt dizzy and almost fell down again.

"Don't be so stubborn!" Clinda supported him with a hint of blame in her tone.

"We have to find a way to leave here..." Zhang Cheng took a deep breath, resisted the discomfort, and tried to keep himself awake. He knew that if they continued like this, they would be trapped and killed in this nebula sooner or later.

The mysterious elf poked his head out from the corner and said timidly, "I know a legend. It is said that there is an energy source in the center of this nebula that controls all energy turbulence..."

"Energy source?" Zhang Cheng's eyes lit up, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw. "If we can find this energy source, perhaps we can control this nebula..."

"But...but it's very dangerous there..." The mysterious elf's voice trembled, "It is said that there lives a powerful guardian there, and any creature that approaches will be torn to pieces by it..."

"No matter what, we have to give it a try!" Zhang Cheng's eyes were firm, "Instead of sitting and waiting to die, we might as well give it a try!"

The Star Knight stepped forward, dusted himself off, and smiled heartily: "Okay! Let me go explore the way!" He flashed, turned into a stream of light, and rushed into the surging energy turbulence. The Light Messenger followed closely behind, and the golden light cut through the darkness, like lightning cutting through the night sky.

"Be careful!" Zhang Cheng shouted, his heart full of worry. He knew that the interstellar knight was in great danger, but this was their only hope.

The Blue Star Guardian looked at the two people's departing backs with a frown on his face. He felt the energy fluctuations in the nebula becoming more and more intense, as if something was about to wake up...

Suddenly, the figure of the Star Knight flew back and hit the protective shield heavily, making a dull sound. His face was pale, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of fear.

"There...there..." He pointed to the depths of the nebula, his voice trembling, but he couldn't finish his words...

The Star Knight fell heavily on the crumbling protective shield, and everyone's heart sank. He struggled to get up, but collapsed weakly, and the blood from the corner of his mouth stained the front of his shirt red.

"What's going on?" Zhang Cheng asked anxiously, his voice trembling slightly with worry.

The Star Knight took a deep breath, his face was as pale as paper, and there was still fear in his eyes. "There is an unimaginably powerful force there..." He said intermittently, "I was violently bounced back by an invisible force before I even got close to the energy source..."

His words were like a thunderclap, exploding in everyone's hearts. Even the Star Knights couldn't get close, so one could imagine how dangerous the energy source was.

"Is there no other way?" There was a hint of despair in Klinda's voice. The dark purple light in her hand was getting dimmer and dimmer, and maintaining the protective shield was almost at her limit.

The Blue Star Guardian frowned. He felt the energy fluctuations in the nebula becoming more and more intense, as if some terrifying existence was awakening. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "We can't give up hope. There must be another way..."

The mysterious elf remained silent. She closed her eyes tightly, her slender eyebrows slightly wrinkled, as if she was in great pain. After a while, she suddenly opened her eyes, and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes. "Not good! There are many hidden energy traps around, we are surrounded!"

"Energy trap?" Zhang Cheng's heart trembled. He looked around but found nothing.

"These traps are hidden in the energy turbulence and cannot be detected by the naked eye," the mysterious elf explained. "Once triggered, it will trigger a chain reaction with disastrous consequences..."

Before she finished her voice, everyone felt a violent vibration coming from under their feet. The protective shield was shaking violently, as if it would break at any time.

"Damn it!" The Blue Star Guardian roared, and he poured all his strength into the protective shield. The blue-purple light shone again, barely resisting this wave of impact.

"This is not a solution," Zhang Cheng endured the severe pain in his body and struggled to stand up. "We must take the initiative to find the energy source to completely solve the problem!"

His eyes were firm and resolute, like a beacon in the darkness, giving everyone a glimmer of hope.

"I agree!" Klinda also stood up. She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her eyes flashing with determination. "Instead of sitting and waiting to die, it's better to give it a try!"

At this moment, the Light Messenger suddenly spoke, his voice as loud as a bell, "I will open a path!"

He put his hands together, and dazzling golden light burst out from his body, like a rising sun. The golden light penetrated the turbulent energy flow and forcibly opened up a path to the depths of the nebula.

"Hurry up!" urged the Messenger of Light. His face was a little pale. It was obvious that it took a huge amount of energy to maintain this passage.

Everyone rushed into the golden passage without hesitation. However, the moment they entered the passage, the surrounding energy turbulence suddenly became more violent, as if stimulated by something. The nebula seemed to have life and began to repair itself frantically. The golden passage shrank rapidly and was about to be completely closed...

The Blue Star Guardian looked back at the turbulent energy behind him and said in a deep voice: "...It's too late..."

The golden passage shrank rapidly, as if being squeezed by an invisible giant hand. The messenger of light turned pale, with beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. He gritted his teeth and tried his best to maintain the existence of the passage, even if it was only for a moment, hoping to give everyone a glimmer of hope.

"Hurry! Get out!" the Messenger of Light roared at the top of his lungs, his voice sounding particularly weak amidst the violent energy turbulence.

Zhang Cheng and the others rushed forward with all their might. The Star Knight endured the pain and used his last bit of strength to push Klinda forward. "Go! Don't worry about me!"

Kelinda's eyes were red, and she held Zhang Cheng's hand tightly, unwilling to let go. Zhang Cheng held her hand tightly with his backhand, pulled her in front of him, and used his body to shield her from the turbulent energy behind him.

The Blue Star Guardians and the mysterious elves followed closely behind, releasing their own power to try to slow down the closing of the channel. However, the power of the nebula was too strong and their efforts seemed insignificant.

Just when the passage was about to be completely closed, Zhang Cheng and Klinda finally rushed out. They fell heavily into the void outside the nebula, gasping for breath, and the joy of surviving the disaster had not yet spread in their hearts, but was replaced by deep worry.

Looking back, the golden passage had disappeared, and the nebula returned to calm again, as if nothing had happened. The Light Messenger, the Star Knight, the Blue Star Guardian, and the mysterious elf were all trapped in the nebula.

"No... I won't..." Klinda murmured to herself, tears blurring her eyes. She struggled to stand up, but was held back by Zhang Cheng.

"Calm down, Klinda," Zhang Cheng's voice was low and hoarse, "We must conserve our strength now and find a way to rescue them."

He knew that sadness and despair at this moment would not help, and only by staying calm could he find a glimmer of hope.

Zhang Cheng looked around and found that they were in a desolate star field, with no planets or starships around to settle. What's worse, the energy storm in the nebula consumed their strength greatly, and they were all in an extremely weak state at the moment.

Clinda leaned weakly against Zhang Cheng, her body trembling slightly, as if she would collapse at any moment. "We...what else can we do..."

Zhang Cheng took a deep breath, helped Kelinda sit on a floating meteorite, and then began to check his condition. His energy reserves were almost gone, and even maintaining basic life activities was a bit difficult.

"We need to find a safe place to recover our strength," Zhang Cheng said, "and then find a way to enter the nebula and rescue them."

Kelinda raised her head, her eyes filled with helplessness and confusion. "But... where should we go..."

Zhang Cheng's eyes fell on a planet in the distance that was flickering with faint light. The planet looked small and inconspicuous, but it was like a bright light in the darkness, giving them a glimmer of hope.

"Maybe... we can go there and take a look..." Zhang Cheng said, pointing at the planet.

Kelinda looked in the direction of his finger, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes. "That planet... looks desolate..."

"No matter what, we have to give it a try," Zhang Cheng stood up and said with a firm look in his eyes, "We have no way out..."

He stretched out his hand and pulled Clinda up, and the two of them supported each other and walked slowly towards the planet that was flickering with a faint light.

Suddenly, Zhang Cheng felt a strange energy wave coming from behind him. He turned back suddenly and saw a strange red light flashing in the depths of the nebula...

"what is that……"
