Chapter 3

As Tang San's Corpse of the Sky was sucked into the spatial rift, his consciousness, which resided in the treasure bead, trembled slightly. A powerful suction force from the outside world pulled his consciousness away.

Tang San had no idea what was happening and could only passively endure it. He felt his consciousness drift into a place that was both unfamiliar and familiar.

Sensing the texture different from the black space, a thought flashed through Tang San's mind: "Could I have returned to my body?"

Just as he was excited, a mysterious force surged from the treasure bead, rushing into his body. A hazy light enveloped his entire body. This force was so domineering that it destroyed everything within Tang San's body in an instant. The texture he felt disappeared, and he seemed to return to the illusory world of the dark space.

The force from the treasure bead continued to integrate into Tang San's body, reconstructing it. A scorching sensation suddenly spread from his body to his consciousness, like a blazing flame.

A mysterious instinct prompted Tang San to open his eyes, and he saw a breathtaking, beautiful, and mysterious scene.

Before his eyes, the sky was filled with star rivers, countless celestial bodies rapidly flying towards him and then quickly disappearing behind him, their speed so fast that they almost formed streaks of light.

Looking at himself, he was enveloped in a glow, flying mysteriously into the universe.

Based on Tang San's knowledge, he realized he seemed to be in the cosmic void. The countless celestial bodies were clearly stars, meteorites, galaxies, nebulae, black holes, and other cosmic wonders.

From the strange state of these celestial bodies, he could deduce that he was flying at an incredible speed under the influence of some mysterious force.

Moreover, Tang San noticed that his body was not in the real spatial dimension but was flying in a space layer similar to a wormhole.

The reason for this judgment was simple: he clearly saw his body collide with a star but felt no heat. He even saw the continuous nuclear fusion within the star, which was so magnificent and grand, yet it did not affect him at all. Apart from the theory of the space layer, he could not find any other explanation.

As time passed, Tang San gradually felt the sensation of touch, as if his body was regaining vitality. His heart slowly began to beat, and a sense of flesh and blood surged in his mind. At this moment, the glow on his body was gradually fading, weakening in this mysterious space.

Instinctively, Tang San knew that if his body were exposed to this mysterious space, he would surely die without a trace.

Having been isolated in the dark space for a thousand years, Tang San had developed an unbreakable will of steel. In the face of danger, he suppressed his anxiety and thought to himself, "I've been confined in the dark space for a thousand years. If I'm not mistaken, it must be some kind of treasure. Since it protected me once, it might do so again. And it should have entered my body with me. If my physical body is destroyed, it will certainly suck my consciousness back into it. Even in the worst-case scenario, I can wait and see."

As the glow outside his body grew dimmer, the sense of danger became more intense. Tang San instinctively felt fear, but he suppressed these emotions with his strong will.

After an unknown amount of time, Tang San felt a jolt in his body, and a wave of light surged from within him, sweeping through the void in front of him. It tore open a black spatial rift and sucked him into it.

Then he saw a massive planet appear in his field of vision, and his body was hurtling towards it like a meteor.

As his body entered the planet's atmosphere, a violent tremor came from the outside, making him feel almost as if he were about to vomit blood.

The friction with the air caused the last layer of light around his body to burn and consume rapidly, almost disappearing completely.

Although it seemed slow, it was actually just a few seconds. Tang San had already passed through the atmosphere and entered the planet's interior, hurtling towards the ground at high speed.

Bound by the light outside his body, Tang San could not move and could only watch helplessly as he hurtled towards the ground. In just a few minutes, he was only a hundred meters from the ground.

The rapid descent tested Tang San's nerves. He could only pray, "What bad luck, how could I encounter such a thing? I hope this layer of light can withstand the impact; otherwise, I'll die again."

With a loud thud, Tang San directly collided with the ground. The massive impact knocked him unconscious, and a shockwave spread out from him, turning a hundred-meter radius into ruins. A ten-meter-wide crater appeared where Tang San had landed.

The thin layer of light around Tang San's body quickly cracked and disintegrated into countless fragments, dispersing into the air.

The loud noise attracted many creatures in the vicinity, but most of them fled in panic to a safer distance.

The animal world was much simpler than the human world. The fear of the unknown made them avoid risks, and they would flee as far as possible from unknown dangers.

However, humans were different. They always had a curiosity about the unknown.

At this moment, a lone wanderer, about thirty miles away, saw Tang San fall from the sky.

This man was in his forties, with wrinkles around his eyes and a fierce expression. He did not look like a good person. His small, beady eyes were full of cunning. He wore a black samurai outfit and had a robust build. His hands were particularly large, and his nails were black, looking very strange, as if coated with some kind of deadly poison.

This man was a lone bandit named Wang Wu, who roamed the northwest, occasionally committing robberies. However, he was very cautious and never left any witnesses. Although his skills were not high, his meticulous and cunning mind allowed him to survive in this chaotic world.

Looking at the sky, he said with a mix of surprise and suspicion, "A meteor has fallen from the sky. If it's meteoric iron, I'll be rich. That legendary material for forging divine weapons is extremely valuable. Selling it to sects or merchants will surely make me a fortune, and I can retire early."

Greed filled his eyes, and desire clouded his mind. He exerted himself and quickly walked towards the place where Tang San had landed.

Time passed slowly, and five hours later, the lone wanderer had reached within ten meters of where Tang San had landed. He looked at the huge crater and the terrifying destruction over a hundred meters, and his whole body trembled.

He was shocked, "This is terrifying. This is the result of a meteor impact, as described in Western science. This kind of power is beyond even the heavy artillery controlled by warlords. It's too frightening."

Despite his shock, Wang Wu was filled with joy. He knew that this was probably a meteor, and even a small piece of meteoric iron would make him rich, freeing him from his life of danger.

Wang Wu couldn't help but imagine his future as a wealthy landowner, with a harem of beautiful women, and his old face drooled.

At this moment, Tang San, who had fallen to the ground, woke up from the impact. He felt a soreness in his body, struggled to sit up, and took a deep breath.

As he inhaled, his chest made a strong thumping sound, the sound of his heart beating fiercely.

Tang San was startled and unconsciously exerted force with his right hand, instantly pressing a one-centimeter-deep imprint into the hard ground beneath his palm.

Feeling the weight in his right hand, Tang San turned to look at it. The hard soil, which had been compressed by the impact of his fall, had been pressed into an imprint. Tang San was surprised, "What's going on? My strength is so great."

"Has my body undergone some kind of transformation?"

As Tang San was thinking, a voice full of anger suddenly came from above. A middle-aged man with a full beard glared at him fiercely.

"Boy, who are you? Why are you here? Where is the meteor? Hand it over, or I'll kill you."

Tang San looked up at the man who was shouting at him, and a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes. He could understand part of what the man was saying, though it was different from Chinese, it was clearly a related language.

Thinking about this, Tang San coldly glanced at Wang Wu and said in a cold voice, "I don't know what meteor you're talking about. I need you to tell me where I am."

The bandit Wang Wu, hearing Tang San's cold words, his eyes bulged like a goldfish, and he said angrily, "Naked boy, I'm the one asking the questions, not you. It seems I'll have to capture you and sell you to a brothel to get you to talk."

Hearing this, Tang San only understood the part about being naked. He realized he was indeed not wearing any clothes. A surge of anger rose to his head, and he stood up, waving at Wang Wu, "Get down here, I'm going to kill you."

Wang Wu, hearing Tang San's words, was first stunned, then burst into laughter, "Ha ha ha, I've never met a lunatic like you. Not only are you naked, but your mind is also unclear. Young boy, it seems I need to teach you a real lesson to show you how foolish you are."

Enraged, Wang Wu leaped down from the two-meter-high meteor crater and, without stopping, rushed towards Tang San.

Facing the charging bandit Wang Wu, who exuded a killing aura, Tang San was not the least bit nervous. Compared to the countless years of loneliness and isolation, this killing aura was nothing to him.

The martial arts he had practiced for countless years in the dark space had become his instinct. As Wang Wu approached, he immediately unleashed his skills.

Although Wang Wu underestimated Tang San, he was not careless. Tang San was too strange, appearing mysteriously in the meteor crater, and there might be something wrong or he might be pretending to be weak. He did not want to be careless and make a mistake. His years of practice in the "Five Poison Hands" were already in action.

Wang Wu rushed to Tang San and shouted, "Toad Tongue!"

His fingernails glowed black, like a toad's tongue, and he thrust them towards Tang San's chest and abdomen, moving so fast that a foul wind followed.

Thus: Time and space travel to a strange star, reborn from death, the transformation is profound.
