In the year 105 of the Star Dome Calendar, the Forgefire Embryo Starship, sleek as a silver fish, wove through the "Symbiotic Rift Sea," a realm woven from the fractured light of rift scars. In the palm of Chen Feng’s hand, the bee-patterned rift core pulsed with a tremor akin to the tentacles of a jellyfish. Outside the porthole, millions of floating crystalline embryos emitted a soft blue-violet glow, their surfaces flowing with Forging-Patterns where water ripples intersected with crystal nuclei. Yet, in the heart of the cluster, dark-golden "Entropy Annihilation Tentacles" were devouring the embryos at a visible rate, transmuting them into void-like rift dust.
"Chen Feng! The survival rate of the embryos in the Rift Sea has dropped to 47%," Su Yuhan reported. On her monitoring screen, the points of light representing the crystalline embryos vanished like falling stars. "The tentacles are emitting a 'Dimensional Devouring Code' identical to the one on page 2299 of Old Zhou’s notes. These embryos' Forging-Pattern chains... are being rewritten as fuel for the Entropy Annihilation rift!" She suddenly pointed to the tactical display. "More critical is that the 'Primal Crystal Nucleus' at the heart of the embryos... is being extracted into the anti-matter universe!"
The communication from Liu Ruyan was distorted by rift turbulence. The manifestation of the String-Weaver explorer, composed of translucent rift light-bands, began to disintegrate like a dandelion blown by the win…
