Chapter 1424: Chapter 239: A Transcendental Stare Across Space-Time
However, just as Ian was planning to turn around and continue observing the âStar Prison Tianyuâ in front of him.
Suddenly.
The âRetrospection Visionâ within his body was activated due to some kind of incredibly intense emotion.
"What?"
Ian was initially somewhat bewildered. He didnât know why the âRetrospection Visionâ started â it should have activated long ago, after all, there was no emotional focal point near the Tianyu.
But soon, he found the reason.
It wasnât outside the Tianyu, but inside the Tianyu.
Inside the âStar Prison Tianyuâ opened by Inega II, within the residual Dragon Crystal, there flowed an undeniable emotion as vast as the ocean!
Because of Elanâs âretrospectionâ, Ian saw the process of Inega II initiating the Star Prison Tianyu and obtaining the Terra Dragonâs legacy.
And because Inega II opened the Tianyu and acquired the legacy, the emotions originating from the Terra Dragon, hidden inside the Tianyu, flowed out and activated Ianâs âretrospectionâ!
At this moment, the Retrospection Vision within Ianâs body, despite only being able to activate through emotions, was more powerful than Elanâs Retrospection Vision!
This more powerful retrospection ability used Elanâs retrospection as a springboard to trace back even further into the past!
In an instant, the endless river of time flowed backward in front of Ianâs eyes, flowing backward...
Clocks reversed, tides receded, everything on heaven and earth returned to the past, like rowing against the current...
Back to 1600 years ago, to the moment when the Star Prison Tianyu first started being created.
In front of a dying True Dragon.
[The Creator has been defeated... the serene circle within the Cradle is no longer possible...]
A voice carrying sorrow resounded in Ianâs soul: [Everything is out of control, the Cradle will soon stagnate... all creatures can no longer escape the Cradle...]
[This is both a good thing and a bad thing... but regardless, one must eventually step out, for the Cradle is a cradle, not a prison...]
The giant black dragon, as if the earth itself, slowly raised its head.
The eyes of Terra Dragon, Terradrakel, slightly lifted, seemingly gazing into the distance, at Ianâs direction.
And Ian also met eyes with this Star Guardian Dragon that had protected Terra for countless years. In this instant, he had a realization.
The person the Terra Dragon was waiting for was himâit was him.
This was a confrontation that spanned 1600 years.
As if piercing through space-time, piercing through destiny.
[Whoever you may be]
At this moment, the Terra Dragon spoke: [No matter what race, what kind of life form you are]
[Whether you opened the cradle and saw this scene from my memory, or you glimpsed this scene by tracing time with aether, transcending the time axis]
[You must be here seeking an answer]
[If so, then please watch carefully, understand the cradle that shelters you, and understand the prison that may imprison you]
[Then, whether to repair it, repair the walls]
[Or to open it, to step into the endâs darkness]
[That is your... choice]
When the words ended, as the Dragon Heart Core inside the dragonâs chest broke through its shattered body and slowly floated to its front, the Terra Dragon began to display âcreationâ.
The Dragon Heart Core of the Terra Dragon appeared in a spiral shark egg shape, with layers of crystal lattice shining. Under the Terra Dragonâs will, this Ancient Dragon Heart Core began to spin rapidly.
A pure and unbelievable aether field spread out, forming, in an instant, what should only exist within an âAether Furnace Coreâ: an âEther Bubbleâ.
Energy began to converge towards the center, while the space-time outside the center approached absolute zero in an instant, and at this moment, the structure of space-time began to twist, or should I say, condense... a Bose-Einstein condensate material began to form.
The speed of light began to decrease.
A simulated black hole, Black Domain began to take shape.
The rotating ether bubble and the condensate material began to darken because the speed of light decreased, incoming light could not escape, and the light was frozen inside, but this was not yet the end.
The ether bubble distorted space-time and gathered infinite energy, opening a passage seemingly leading to a more âinnerâ location, and the condensed space-time formed a concave âwellâ around this passage... it seemed to connect with the âGreat Aether Circulationâ, forming the most fundamental âSecond-Class Perpetual Motion Machineâ, maintaining the eternal existence of this ether bubble...
A nearly black hole-like space-time entrance appeared, and an outer wall formed by spatiotemporal condensed materials created a horizon from which even light could not escape.
And then, Ian could see no more.
Because the Star Prison Tianyu had already formed.
