Chapter 1594: Chapter 295: Ethereal Crystal Perpetual Motion Machine
The legacy of the Terra Dragon is indeed important, but it is not as important as this suddenly appeared âMain Ship Engineâ.
The Ancestral True Dragons and the second-generation Mentor True Dragons have all vanished, leaving much crucial information unrecorded. Although these Dragon Kings are Dragon Kings, they are merely the successorsâwho would have thought the main engine of the Skyfall Spaceship wasnât constructed into Dragon Island?
"Thereâs a âSombre Crystal Engineâ under Dazzling Lake, within my territory..."
Ian also began to recall his mastery of the Heavenfall Legacy, while the Star-Town Dragon King shook his head and said: [The Sombre Crystal Engine is merely a power source for the Creatorâs spaceshipâs internal facilities, an emergency backup engine. Simply put, itâs an independent energy source that maintains the existence of the âCradle Systemâ after detaching from the spaceshipâs main body.]
[Although itâs precious, it is far less valuable than the main engine... You must know, the core of the Cradle Plan is the Creatorâs ship and the Ancestralsâtheir existence itself is the core, framework, and building material of the entire âCradleâ!]
Ian couldnât quite comprehend what it meant for the Skyfall Spaceship and the Ancestral True Dragons to be the core and building materials of the Cradle, but he understood that such super-life forms as Star Gods needing to ride spaceships rather than flying themselves was sufficient evidence of the technology embedded in the Skyfall Spaceship.
And the power source of this spaceship is undoubtedly the most important and cherished aspect of the âHeavenfall Legacyâ On Terra!
"What is unique about it?"
Ian inquired, and the Abyssal Dragon glanced at the Four Great Dragon Kings, speaking first: [Perpetual Motion Machine]
[Comrade, itâs a kind of perpetual motion machine...]
[Any civilization, any race... regardless of societal system or form of existence, can perceive and utilize this ultimate creation, the supreme energy source that can fulfill any desire...]
[Ethereal Crystal Perpetual Motion Machine]
"Perpetual motion machine?"
Ian repeated the term, shook his head, and steadied himself before recovering from a rather absurd bewilderment: "If it were Star Gods, it wouldnât be strange..."
The Ether Furnace Core is already a semi-perpetual machine formed with the aid of the Aether Universe environmentâthis is almost a standard energy source for the Terra Universeâs interstellar civilization.
That being said, it wouldnât be strange for Star Gods to use a perpetually operating machine...
Though he still thought âwhatâs so strange about itâ, Ian temporarily relinquished his perplexing thoughts and instead focused on things he had previously found curious.
âCentered around the Terra Planet, an anomalous origin quality environment...
Could its source possibly be caused by the âEthereal Crystal Perpetual Motion Machineâ?
He suppressed the excitement in his heart, sharing his previous speculations about the origin quality environment of the Terra Planetâs legacy with the Dragon Kings and the Abyssal Dragon, causing all the dragons to fall into deep thought.
They had actually detected that the Terraâs ecological environment is fundamentally different from a normal planetâyou see, an entire Starfieldâs origin quality might barely suffice to sustain one Fifth Power Level individual, who would reside in the âHeavenly Kingdomâ near the sun, distant from life-sustaining planets which are barren for the powerful.
This is the universe order designed by Star Gods, preventing powerful individuals from excessively affecting the development of intelligent life civilization. Naturally, both sides can complement each other, but a God dwelling among the mundane would also lead to civilizational anomaly.
But on Terra, Fifth Power Level individuals are to be counted by dozens, even using the Milky Way Galaxy as a reference base, itâs a fairly exaggerated numberâbecause not every region can produce a Fifth Power Level, generally speaking, the Fourth Power Level is the limit.
Dozens of Fifth Power Levels equate to dozens of civilizations capable of leaving their home planet and undertaking superluminal travel through the universe!
Such terrifying origin quality density has fostered staggering numbers of Magical Beasts and Sublimation Material on Terra.
Likewise...
It has also led to the abnormal lifespan of Sublimators around Terra.
Yes, the abnormality of lifespans.
Even if Terraâs Sublimation Path is a wartime system developed to counter the Alien Gods and Spark disasters, requiring output far exceeding normal standards, which easily results in the loss of life and self-harm, the Fifth Energy Level demigod shouldnât merely live no more than two hundred years.
Not to mention, four to five hundred years should pose no issue.
The current situation is, aside from potential errors in the original Sublimation Path, primarily due to the extreme origin quality environment.
Just as some materials become superconductive in high-temperature conditions, when the origin quality concentration exceeds a certain threshold, Sublimators can wield incredible power... but the toll on their body and soul is equally extraordinary.
At the Fifth Power Level, the high-density origin quality environment allows them to perform feats as grand as moving mountains and seas, even destroying the continent and surface of the planet; however, with each exertion, their life force burns brightly but briefly.
The ancient Demonic Beastsâ longevity can be attributed solely to the exquisite design of their life, since ancient Demonic Beastsâ prototypes were those powerful Alien Citizens; their self-modifications surpass those of the Terra People, therefore, their adaptability in extreme environments is superior.
"Origin quality is also toxic..." Ian calculated mentally, realizing that if the hypothesis of âa core engine on Terra continuously increasing origin quality concentrationâ fits into Terraâs environment, then many anomalies become explainable.
Although not entirely, a large majority of inexplicable phenomena can trace their source!
[We must find it!]
The True Flame Dragon King declared solemnly, their tone even carrying subtle undertones of deep-hidden excitement: [The reason True Dragons can only watch is due to a lack of tools and resources]
[The Dragon Group abandoned their base at the edge of the Starfield for Terra due to insufficient energy]
[As long as the perpetual motion machine is obtained, everything will improve!]
[Even if itâs simply complete matter-energy conversion, using Aether to warp space-time, with the perpetual motion machine, we can conjure an ultra-giant deep space base out of thin air, or even an entire Aether Planetâour building materials have finally found their place]
[That is a perpetual motion machine, synonymous with âinfinite energyâ, within its keeping, all of Terraâs difficulties, all issues, can be resolved!]
"It canât solve The End." Ian stated, breaking the atmosphere: "Frankly, while infinite energy sounds impressive, the output of the Ethereal Crystal Perpetual Motion Machine is certainly limited."
"Over a thousand years, it has transformed Terra into the current source-quality anomalous region, but hasnât truly blown Terra apart, which proves this point."
"Not to mention, The End, as a super entity that rivals the Star Gods, probably considers the perpetual motion machine nothing more than a toy."
[Indeed]Dragon King Hongchao gently agreed: [But without a doubt, reclaiming the Ethereal Crystal Perpetual Motion Machine could indeed solve many issuesâat the very least, the Dragon Island situation would vastly ease]
[Those shelved plans and the state of living for the Terra People will also be improved]
Ian wasnât certain what the âshelved plansâ precisely entailed, but if they concerned the Star Godâs original âCradle Planâ, he wouldnât be surprised.
Preserving a thousand Sparks and ensuring their revival necessitates a perpetual motion machine to âperpetually sustainâ the long-term operation of this system.
As for the Terra People...
Unless the person possessing the perpetual motion machine is him, Ian doubts any Terra People, upon acquiring such a divine artifact, would use it to benefit the people.
"After all, no matter how powerful a tool, it depends on the user. While the presence of a perpetual motion machine is significant news, the truly crucial element is still this Abyssal Dragon."
With these thoughts, Ian glanced at the Abyssal Dragon, whose expression was also a bit astonished, and felt a sense of curiosity.
Who would have thought that this Abyssal Dragon, who revived with the power of the Fiery Flame Land, could bring them such vital information!
"Comrade."
At this moment, the Prophet controlled the Dragon Body, presenting a âkindly sweetâ smile: "Do you have any more important information?"
"Trust me, we on Dragon Island definitely donât shortchange meritorious retainers!"
