A special prompt sound echoed in Qin Feng's mind.
"Ding..."
"Congratulations on defeating a Star-level monster, you have received the following rewards..."
With another bountiful harvest, Qin Feng opened his attribute panel again. He was overjoyed to find that he had leveled up by 100 levels.
This meant his prediction was accurate. The spiritual energy gathering spot of the teleportation array could bring him substantial income. This kind of experience gain was something monsters in other spiritual energy gathering spots couldn't provide.
There were many monsters within the teleportation array. He could concentrate his current advantages and wipe out all the monsters inside in one go, thus achieving significant improvement. This was much simpler than finding monsters in Tier 5 spiritual energy gathering spots one by one, and his level progression would be much faster.
However, Qin Feng didn't know which coordinate location was the teleportation array. The next Tier 5 spiritual energy gathering spot was quite far from his current location. Although he could reach it quickly with his speed, his Red Alert army and these two mechs were not as fast as him. It would take at least two hours for them to arrive.
Moreover, the next coordinate location might not be a teleportation array; it could very well be a secret realm. The improvement Qin Feng gained from a single Star-level monster now felt somewhat uninteresting, a mere drop in the bucket. He was eager for the next spiritual energy gathering spot to be a teleportation array.
This way, he could quickly advance to level 1000 and see how powerful he could become by exchanging his treasures for strength.
Therefore, Qin Feng took a deep breath and prepared to head to the location of the next coordinate. Just as Qin Feng was about to leave, he suddenly realized a problem. He turned around and looked at the teleportation array.
The teleportation array was still lit, its white light as strong as ever, showing no signs of weakening. Since the monsters at the location the teleportation array transported him to had already been eliminated by him, why hadn't the teleportation array disappeared? According to his understanding of teleportation arrays deep in his mind, once a teleportation array's effectiveness vanished, it would disintegrate, having no reason to exist.
The greatest function of this teleportation array was to transport him to another space to confront five Star-level monsters. Now that those five Star-level monsters had been eliminated by him, logically, this teleportation array should no longer exist. Yet, it was still lit. This indicated that the monsters might not have been eliminated, or the true purpose of this teleportation array was not for him to eliminate monsters, but for some other function.
Which one was correct? Qin Feng didn't know.
However, he was no longer interested in heading to the next Tier 5 spiritual energy gathering spot. The immense mystery of the teleportation array before him was slowly unfolding. There was no reason for him to go to the next location. If he could unravel the secret of this teleportation array, he might gain immense rewards and achieve great improvement.
So, Qin Feng sat cross-legged on the ground. At the same time, he summoned a Red Alert soldier from his Red Alert domain and had him enter the teleportation array equipped with a full set of monitoring equipment. Qin Feng wanted to see what would happen.
Would the five monsters revive? Could he exploit this loophole to farm monsters infinitely? And Star-level monsters at that.
If so, this single teleportation array could allow him to reach level 1000, or even higher.
Thus, the Red Alert soldier walked into the white light. With a flash of white light, he reappeared in a completely unfamiliar environment. It was still the vast universe, and he was still inside a warship. Around him, five mech-type monsters had completely surrounded him, their cannons all aimed at him, ready to fire at any moment.
The situation was exactly the same as what Qin Feng had encountered earlier. This meant that Qin Feng had just eliminated five Star-level monsters, but these five monsters had respawned after the Red Alert soldier entered the teleportation array. Qin Feng saw it all clearly through the monitoring equipment on the Red Alert soldier. He was very surprised because this indicated that the teleportation array was not as simple as he had imagined.
Although this teleportation array could transport him to completely different spaces to challenge monsters within, it was not limited to just one space. This space might have countless copies, and the attacking monsters within might also be infinite. If the monsters refreshed every time he entered, it would be like striking gold.
Using this teleportation array, he could infinitely increase his level and also obtain many treasure chests and money. This would be a huge improvement for him. Qin Feng was very excited at this thought. However, he also commanded the Red Alert soldier inside to pilot the spaceship away from its current location. Such an action was akin to seeking death.
But Qin Feng no longer cared about the life or death of this Red Alert soldier. He now only wanted to lead two mechs inside again to challenge the monsters and increase his level once more.
As the Red Alert soldier attempted to pilot the spaceship away, the five surrounding mech-type monsters opened fire simultaneously. Instantly, the Red Alert soldier died, and his consciousness returned to Qin Feng's mind.
Therefore, Qin Feng did not hesitate any longer. He once again mobilized all his strength, lifted the two mechs, and walked into the white light. He wanted to use this opportunity to infinitely replicate his level and infinitely replicate high-level treasure chests.
Just as Qin Feng stepped into the white light, the familiar signs of the teleportation array activating did not occur. Qin Feng stood in place without moving. He looked around. Within this white light were ordinary sand and stones, and a powerful energy was being transmitted from the teleportation array beneath the ground. Logically, he should have been carried away by this force.
Now, standing within the teleportation array, it was as if he were on flat ground. This left him utterly bewildered. Logically, such a situation should absolutely not happen.
Qin Feng placed the two mechs on the ground and walked forward, but the teleportation array still did not activate. Qin Feng even picked up a bronze ancient sword from the ground, which he had deliberately thrown into the teleportation array. He wanted to test whether non-living objects entering this teleportation array would trigger it to reach that alternate dimension. The result was that it didn't happen. And he, entering the teleportation array now, was exactly the same as this bronze ancient sword; he couldn't trigger the teleportation array's power at all.
He could only stand there foolishly, unable to do anything.
So, Qin Feng led the two mechs out. Qin Feng thought to himself, "Could it be that I am now a non-living entity?"
He was clearly a living person, so how could he be unable to trigger the teleportation array's power?
With this thought, he purchased a rabbit from the store and threw it in. With a flash of white light, the monitoring equipment carried by the rabbit also disappeared. They appeared in that familiar space, facing the same situation: five combat mechs, ready to attack at any moment!
The rabbit went in, but he couldn't activate the teleportation array to enter. What was going on?
