Samsara Online Chapter 177 "I will let you see the whole universe."

We should not confuse air and wind. Although both words pointed to the same type of element and were closely related, both are completely different from each other.

In the formation of wind, there were two fundamental factors that came into play: air ma.s.ses and atmospheric pressure. The wind originated from the rotation of the planet together with the difference in temperature between the land and the sea.

The wind was, in fact, a movement of air from one area to another with different pressures. Furthermore, since the Planet Earth constantly rotates and moves in a theoretically vertical manner, it also moved in the horizontal plane, thus creating the wind. The wind would originate from the energy of the Sun as a heat source; the movement of air would be mainly due to a special property of gases: hot air rises and cold air falls.

Because Xie Feng's power was based on such an element, he studied with great dedication and spent many sleepless nights to become at least a little stronger. However, Xie Feng was, after all, a normal human being who was tied to his birth world, Planet Earth.

It was impossible for him to travel to outer s.p.a.ce as he was now, as his physical body could not withstand the atmospheric pressure even if he covered himself with a wind barrier. But even if he managed to reach outer s.p.a.ce successfully by creating a wind barrier, this barrier would immediately decompose upon leaving the Earth's atmosphere due to the lack of oxygen and other elements that made up the air.

However, the Chaos Energy inside Xie Feng's body seemed to be the answer and solution to all these problems.

From the beginning, because he was bound to Planet Earth, Xie Feng unconsciously never tried to create wind by himself. After all, why would he go to the trouble of doing such a thing when air and wind were found even in the deepest part of the ocean?

It was precisely this unconscious thought and lack of knowledge about his own power as well as the Chaos Energy within his body that caused Xie Feng to find himself in a life and death situation.

When the Chaos Energy inside Xie Feng's body began to actively move through his soul according to the mantra that Xie Feng had engraved in his memory, it was as if a new world had opened up for him.

So what if there was no air to create wind? With the Chaos Energy inside his body, Xie Feng could create it by himself! Of course, for the wind to be generated, the heat was also needed, as previously mentioned.

However, didn't Xie Feng have the hottest star near Planet Earth right in front of him? What other source of heat could be more perfect than the sun itself!

Wooosh!

Suddenly, Xie Feng 'stood up' and the emerald green light that surrounded his body disappeared completely... No, precisely speaking, the green energy did not disappear; it was completely absorbed by Xie Feng's body, nourishing his muscles, blood, and flesh even more which made his fleshly body much more powerful than before!

The most surprising thing was that, although it was well known that in outer s.p.a.ce things floated slowly, Xie Feng's clothes and hair fluttered furiously and, if one were to look more carefully, one could also see that a faint transparent colored cloak swooshed and danced around his body as if it was embracing him!

Xie Feng extended his right hand and looked at it silently. His eyes contained many complicated emotions; joy, mockery, fear, jubilation, guilt?

Joy because he finally managed to understand many things. Joy because he finally became stronger. Joy because he was sure to protect the people he loved with his current strength.

Mockery... Xie Feng was mocking himself. Until just forty minutes ago, before crossing the atmosphere, Xie Feng believed that even if there were people stronger than him, the difference should not be too noticeable. But now that he had gone a step further, Xie Feng realized how ingenuous his previous thoughts were.

The power Xie Feng felt was so immeasurable that he was sure he could destroy an entire country without too much trouble; this was something that was impossible even for him before. The difference between the previous Xie Feng and the current Xie Feng was like comparing the night ruled by the moon with the day ruled by the sun. It was stupid to simply compare the two.

Fear because he was about to die. Fear because he knew that after his death, Xie Yao's fate would not be much better. Fear because if he had not succeeded, if he had not risked his life tonight, then who could be sure that there would be a tomorrow for him and the people he loved?

Guilt because of his stupidity, arrogance, and carelessness, there was a girl waiting for him worried.

Xie Feng closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm his fluttering heart.

"Now everything is fine... The current me can definitely protect you all... Definitely..."

Xie Feng's eyes slowly opened once again and shone like a sharp blade. After taking one last look at the sight in front of him, Xie Feng turned his body and began to fly back.

He had to return to Planet Earth. Xie Yao was waiting for him there.

-Planet Earth, China, Beijing.

While Xie Feng was still in outer s.p.a.ce, he had no idea how agitated the whole world was due to the appearance of a 'second sun' in the middle of the night. Although the phenomenon appeared and showed itself for less than five minutes, the number of people who saw it was in the hundreds of millions and even billions.

Almost the entire population of the Asian continent was dazzled in the middle of the night by a green light that illuminated everyone's house, awakening many people by how strong the light was.

Some people even said that the air around them felt purer than usual.

The Chinese government had a headache at first, but then calmed down when they realized that, since the phenomenon happened in outer s.p.a.ce and the entire Asian continent saw it, they had no reason to do anything about it as far as their citizens were concerned. A simple press conference with a halfway acceptable explanation should be able to calm the ma.s.ses.

However, a small group of people knew the truth, or at least had a rough idea.

In five different places in Beijing, five people opened their eyes at the same time and looked up at the sky. A slight flash of surprise appeared in their eyes for a moment before the gaze of the five people returned to normal.

Then, as if nothing had happened and without concern for the outside world, the five people closed their eyes once again; as if they were meditating quietly.

"How's it going? Do you like it?" Xie Feng looked at the beautiful girl standing next to him and asked with a gentle smile as he hugged her.

"B-Big brother Xie Feng... This... This is..." Xie Yao's mouth was constantly opening and closing but she was unable to say a complete sentence due to the overwhelming surprise.

After Xie Feng returned to the earthly atmosphere, he calmed the slightly frightened Xie Yao and explained a little about what happened, omitting the detail that he almost died. Xie Feng was also surprised when he learned that such a strange phenomenon actually occurred as his Chaos Energy circulated through his body and adapted to be able to create elements from nothing.

Then, without saying a word, Xie Feng took Xie Yao in his embrace and flew into outer s.p.a.ce. With his current strength, he was confident in protecting Xie Yao's small body from the cosmic radiation and atmospheric pressure without any problems. Since Xie Feng was much stronger, his speed increased even more! The amount of time it took him to overcome the over 600 kilometers of atmosphere was only ten minutes! This was 1/4 of the previous time!

"Well, you wanted to see the stars right?" Xie Feng hugged Xie Yao tightly and, while looking at the millions of stars of all kinds of colors that made up the universe, continued, "Although it's not possible for me yet, but I believe that one day I'll be able to go beyond... At that time I will let you see the whole universe."

Xie Feng's words made Xie Yao's eyes fill with tears and after staring at him for several seconds dazedly, she finally couldn't help but hug him tightly and bury her face in his chest as she sobbed softly.

"Hey, hey, why are you crying? Did I do something wrong?" Xie Feng was startled. Did he say something wrong?

"..No.. *Sniff*..." As she sobbed louder and louder, Xie Yao shook her head from side to side. She couldn't be happier. There definitely couldn't be a luckier woman than her in the whole world.

Then, as if her life depended on it, she encircled her arms around Xie Feng's neck and kissed him fervently.

Slightly relieved, Xie Feng gently embraced her small waist and kissed her back.

Thus, a couple of a young man and a young woman kissed each other as they hugged each other and were surrounded by billions of stars ... In the vast Outer s.p.a.ce, with a beautiful bright blue planet as a background.

Against all odds, Xie Feng not only survived, but he also became stronger than ever. Now, he was confident in protecting those he loved and also had the strength to fight against those who made Xie Yao's tears fall in pain.

Could he really go further and fulfill his promise to her? There was still a long road ahead of him.
