Chapter 78: Black Obsidian Embers (Part 1)

Lin Fan frowned slightly, realizing that the mission for the third chapter was by no means an ordinary challenge.

There are eight major planets in the Solar System, plus countless moons, asteroid belts, dwarf planets, and other celestial bodies; the sheer scale is enough to make one's scalp tingle.

Wanting to completely eliminate the Black Obsidian Organization among so many planets and spaces is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.

Moreover, the Black Obsidian Organization is best at lurking; even Heavenly Dao Divine Sense struggles to capture their tracks.

Furthermore, they have always communicated via quantum communication, leaving absolutely no conventional traces.

Lin Fan could not help but feel heavy-hearted.

He looked up at the starry sky, calculating the feasibility of this arduous mission in his heart.

Even with the heavenly dao divine weapon and his own strength, such a mission is almost impossible to complete in a short time.

"Completely clearing out all remaining forces… this is a truly tough mission."

Just as Lin Fan was struggling to think of a countermeasure, Xiao Du's slightly playful voice rang in his ears again:

"Hehe, Little Master, don't be so worried! Actually, there is a simple method that can help you find them."

Lin Fan was taken aback, then listened intently.

"The Heavenly Secret Roulette can directly detect abnormal areas of the Heavenly Mechanism Array and resolve these abnormal points into actual spatial coordinates!"

Xiao Du continued triumphantly, "As long as you investigate one by one according to these coordinates, you can easily find the hiding place of the Black Obsidian Organization!

Compared to running around the entire Solar System, isn't it much simpler?"

A glimmer of hope lit up in Lin Fan's eyes.

"Can it really be that simple? Could those abnormal points be caused by other reasons?"

"The Heavenly Mechanism Array is closely connected to the Heavenly Dao Order; the existence of any abnormal point is a threat to order.

Even if it is not the remaining forces of the Black Obsidian Organization, it must be another problem that needs to be dealt with.

Just clear them one by one! While you're at it, just while you're at it."

Lin Fan smiled slightly, feeling touched by Xiao Du's lack of seriousness, yet admitting this was the most feasible method currently.

"Since there is a goal, then let's begin! Whether it's an abnormal point or the Black Obsidian Organization, wipe them all out completely!"

With the activation of the Heavenly Secret Roulette, a pale golden halo slowly unfolded in front of Lin Fan, beginning to outline the spatial coordinates of those abnormal points in the Solar System.

Small dots flickered within the halo, each representing an area that needed to be investigated.

Lin Fan's gaze swept over these coordinates, and he clenched his fists:

"It seems this battle will be a protracted war. But I will let the entire Solar System return to clarity."

After speaking, he turned and stepped into the Void Realm, heading towards the area where the first coordinate point was located; the prelude to battle was about to begin.

Following the first coordinate resolved by the Heavenly Secret Roulette, Lin Fan quickly stepped into the Void Realm.

The target was a fragment planet located in the asteroid belt; this was a dead, silent zone in the Solar System that no one had set foot in for years,

Scattered asteroids collided and split under the influence of gravity, filled with danger.

"Is the first coordinate in this ruin?" Lin Fan stood in a patch of the Void Realm, feeling the strange fluctuations emanating from his surroundings.

"Little Master, the abnormal point here is very likely a hidden base of the Black Obsidian Organization, but it could also be turbulence caused by the natural imbalance of the Heavenly Mechanism Array. You must be careful."

Lin Fan nodded gently, the heavenly dao divine weapon in his hand vibrating slightly, flowing with a pale golden light.

He cautiously swung the divine weapon, splitting the floating asteroid fragments in front of him, and probed deeper. Sure enough, after approaching the coordinates, he felt a strong residual energy.

This energy was mixed with familiar quantum communication fluctuations, exactly the same as the traces of the Black Obsidian Organization.

"It seems this is indeed one of their strongholds."

Lin Fan sneered, grabbed at the void with his right hand, and under his command, the heavenly dao divine weapon emitted a dazzling light, and Sword Qi struck down like thunder.

With a loud bang, the dust cleared, revealing the entrance to the base hidden within the fragment planet.

It was covered with complex force field barriers, but for Lin Fan, who had mastered the Heavenly Dao Order, this defense was like thin paper.

He broke through the barrier with a nonchalant sword strike and stepped into the base.

The interior of the base was extremely simple, like a temporarily built underground cave, but it was filled with a technological atmosphere everywhere.

Strange light screens hung on the walls, with dense streams of data flickering on them.

Some energy cores were scattered in the corners, along with a few damaged quantum communication devices.

Just as Lin Fan was searching carefully, a projection suddenly appeared from the light screen.

"Intruder?" The projection revealed a blurred mechanical figure with a cold and ruthless voice,

"The Black Obsidian Organization will not be easily eradicated. Our plan has already begun, and your obstruction is meaningless."

Lin Fan's expression turned cold; he stared at the projection and said coldly:

"No matter what plan you have, I will root you all out one by one. Black Obsidian Organization, don't even think about disrupting order again."

The mechanical projection seemed to be enraged, emitting a low laugh:

"Then let's give it a try. This is just one of our many strongholds. Blowing it up is just cleaning up trash."

Before the words finished, the walls of the entire base began to issue red alerts, accompanied by harsh alarm sounds, and the mechanical projection issued a final threat:

"Explosion countdown started, good luck."

Lin Fan frowned, without any hesitation.

He quickly turned and rushed towards the exit, while simultaneously slashing out a Void Sword Qi, completely destroying a communication device to prevent the Black Obsidian Organization from transmitting any data.

"Xiao Du, hurry and help me calculate an evacuation route!"

Lin Fan shouted while running; the surrounding ground and walls began to shake violently, and rocks kept falling.

Xiao Du's voice rang out in time:

"Don't worry, Little Master, activate Void Evasion to its maximum range and teleport directly out!"

Lin Fan's mind stirred, and the power of Void Evasion instantly enveloped his entire body.

His whole person turned into an afterimage, disappearing from the base that was about to explode.

A few seconds later, a deafening explosion erupted in the asteroid belt, and the entire fragment planet instantly turned into dust.

Lin Fan appeared in the Void Realm several thousand meters away, panting slightly, his gaze cold as he looked at the center of the explosion.

"One stronghold cleared."

The Heavenly Secret Roulette started again, projecting the coordinates of the next abnormal point.

He did not hesitate at all, stepped into the Void Realm again, and sped towards the next target.

Lin Fan traveled through the Void Realm and arrived at the second coordinate displayed by the Heavenly Secret Roulette — a subterranean rift on Mars.

This was the closest planet to Earth in the Solar System and also an important stronghold that the Black Obsidian Organization might be utilizing.

"Mars? No wonder they chose this place; the desolate surface and complex geological structure are indeed very suitable for hiding."

Lin Fan pondered in his heart as his feet had already stepped onto the surface of Mars.

He overlooked the huge rift in front of him; the bottom of the valley was bottomless, like the abyss-like maw of a giant beast opened wide.

Xiao Du's voice sounded, carrying a hint of excitement:

"Little Master, strong energy fluctuations have been detected deep in the rift; it should be where the target is located."
