Chapter 3228: Shining Stars

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen ignored his splitting headache and looked in the direction where the aurora appeared.

The aurora, which was originally like a wave vertically between the sky and the earth, suddenly seemed to be controlled by some force and began to twist in the same direction like a whirlpool. The original aurora seemed to be broken into molecules, and countless points of light began to slowly rotate in the air.

Ye Chen was amazed. Lin Wan'er beside him blurted out, "How come this aurora suddenly looks like countless fireflies..."

Ye Chen agreed and said: "Miss Lin's description is very appropriate. The originally large patches of aurora now look like countless fireflies. Now those 'fireflies' have begun to disperse and rotate around a center. I really don't understand why this is happening..."

Lin Wan'er said solemnly, "It looks like a firefly, but it's not a firefly. This aurora is like ocean waves. Although ocean waves are made up of countless water droplets, it is impossible for water droplets to violate the physical laws of ocean waves. This seems a little strange..."

As she was speaking, Lin Wan'er suddenly pointed at the green vortex spinning in the air and blurted out, "Look, sir! The aurora seems to be changing its form!"

Looking at the vortex again, it was no longer rotating vertically between heaven and earth.

The whirlpool seemed to have come to life. It began to tilt toward the horizontal plane until it was completely parallel to the sea level.

Ye Chen and Lin Wan'er were watching the whirlpool spinning below and were so shocked that they were speechless.

Ye Chen couldn't help but pull Lin Wan'er, and the two of them ran all the way up the hill towards the swirling vortex.

Although Lin Wan'er was panting, she did not dare to delay for a moment and followed Ye Chen's rhythm with all her strength.

A moment later, the two of them arrived under the vortex. When they looked up, they saw the vortex composed of green light spots spinning silently above their heads. Ye Chen had never seen such a magnificent sight before, and he couldn't help but say, "This... looks like the Milky Way..."

“Yes…” Lin Wan’er, who was holding hands with Ye Chen, looked up and exclaimed, “Countless points of light are spinning silently in the air. This feeling is just like the magnificent Milky Way I saw on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau…”

After that, she asked Ye Chen: "Sir, what is the reason for this? I think this is definitely not a natural phenomenon. There must be some force affecting the aurora!"

Ye Chen blurted out: "I just felt as if something rushed out of my brain. I don't know if it was an illusion."

As he said that, he quickly took out the ring that Lin Wan'er gave him, and found that the ring was still there and had not disappeared.

Moreover, the ring didn't move at all at this time, and it seemed that the aurora didn't seem to be related to it.

Seeing Ye Chen take out the ring, Lin Wan'er quickly asked him, "Sir, do you feel any changes in the ring? Or any fluctuations?"

"No..." Ye Chen said, "It is lifeless at the moment, without any movement. It doesn't seem to be related to it."

Lin Wan'er asked hurriedly, "Does the young master have any other magic weapons?"

"Magic weapon?" Ye Chen smiled awkwardly, "I do have a Thunder Token, which was made from the lightning-struck wood of Pu Cha's mother, but it seems that it has no movement."

Lin Wan'er asked again: "Besides this, is there nothing else?"

“No more…” Ye Chen said, “A true magical weapon is extremely precious. I have only obtained two true magical weapons so far. One is the ring you gave me, and the other is the medicine cauldron that the head of Taizhen Dao lost to me.”

Lin Wan'er asked, "Sir, did you bring the medicine cauldron with you?"

Ye Chen smiled bitterly and said, "That thing is almost as big as my head, and it's not convenient to carry it with me. Besides, I'm afraid that someone might see it and have bad intentions, so I left it in Jinling."

Lin Wan'er nodded and said, "It's not the ring, nor the medicine cauldron... Then what exactly affected the aurora?"

Ye Chen asked her: "Could it be some kind of magnetic field effect?"

Lin Wan'er shook her head and said, "It's unlikely. The formation principle of the aurora cannot make it have such a form..."

As she was speaking, Lin Wan'er exclaimed again: "Look, sir! The aurora has changed again!"

Ye Chen looked closely and saw that the vortex-shaped light spot that was originally like the Milky Way suddenly began to split into four parts like a cake. The light spots in each area began to gather towards the center of the area. As the speed of gathering became faster and faster and the density became higher and higher, a shape like two crossed letters Z suddenly appeared in the air.

Lin Wan'er looked extremely horrified, and murmured, "Master, how did the aurora... turn into a swastika?"

Ye Chen was just saying that this image looked familiar, it turned out to be the swastika used in many religions - "卍"!

At this moment, the shape of the swastika had been completely formed, and then slowly rotated in the air above the two people's heads.

Lin Wan'er was stunned. She had been a devout Buddhist since she was a child. Seeing the aurora suddenly present such a spectacle, her piety drove her to kneel on the ground immediately, clasped her hands together, and silently said in her heart: "I am Lin Wan'er, born in southern Yunnan in the second year of the Longwu period of the Southern Ming Dynasty. I have believed in Buddhism and have been kind all my life. I hope that the Buddha will bless you to avenge your great hatred and achieve great success..."

Just as Lin Wan'er was praying for Buddha's blessing for Ye Chen in her heart, Ye Chen looked up at the swastika slowly rotating in the sky and suddenly said, "This pattern looks like a religious swastika from below, which does have a good meaning, but if you look at it from the sky, doesn't it become the logo of the German Nazis? The two logos happen to be completely mirror images, and this thing is always rotating, so you can't tell whether it is tilted or straight. If someone saw it from the sky on an airplane, they would think that God is going to resurrect the Nazis..."

Lin Wan'er had just finished praying for Ye Chen in her heart and was about to stand up, but when she heard these words, she lost her balance and almost fell down. Ye Chen quickly reached out to support her, and then she said quietly: "Young Master, please don't make fun of the Buddha in the future."

Ye Chen said with a wronged look on his face: "I'm not making fun of the Buddha, it's just that this swastika has two different meanings when you look at it forward and backward..."

Lin Wan'er said helplessly: "This place is close to the Arctic Circle, and it is unlikely that there will be planes flying over, so this scene is naturally for people on the ground to see. In other words, it should be for us to see."

Ye Chen asked her: "You mean, someone wanted us to see this scene intentionally?"

Lin Wan'er said, "Whether it was intentional or not, I don't know, but I believe that all this must be related to you, young master."

Although Ye Chen also felt that this strange phenomenon should be somehow related to himself, he couldn't figure out any clues for a while.

Just as he was puzzled, the rotating swastika in the air spun faster and faster, and many scattered spots of light were even thrown out by the high-speed rotation. The entire swastika was like a rotating firework, constantly throwing out bright and dazzling light and shadows until it burned itself out.

Then, those spots of light scattered into the sky flickered alternately at different frequencies. For a moment, it was like the countless stars seen on the top of a mountain in summer, as if in a dream.

As the flashing frequencies of these light spots were different, Ye Chen suddenly discovered that, with a certain flash, the light spots that were lit up at the same time in the air could just form an image. The image looked like a big hand, making incredible gestures in the air.

Afterwards, the flashing light made the previous gesture disappear, and after a few seconds, a new gesture appeared.

Ye Chen asked Lin Wan'er: "Did Miss Lin see those gestures?"

Lin Wan'er shook her head and asked him in confusion, "What gesture are you talking about, sir?"

Ye Chen pointed at the third hand gesture in the air and said, "That's it. Look, those stars shining at the same time, don't they look like a hand gesture? What I said may be a little abstract, but if you look at these stars with the same mindset as you look at constellations, you can see that it does form a pattern!"
