Chapter 2035: Chapter 31: The Fusion of Star God and The End?
"Indeed, the process by which the Fragment of Demise broke free from the Skyfall Spaceship back then wasnât so simple."
Ever since Ian learned the true story of the Heavenfall incident, he has been pondering.
âWas there truly a vast difference in power between the Star God and The End?
Even if there was, was it so great that a Star God couldnât even defeat a single Fragment of Demise?
Now it seems, the gap in their level is probably not that great.
Most likely, it was because of the Aether recovery, and the âGreat Aether Circulation Closure Eventâ as the Silent True Demon called it, which left the Star God on the spaceship temporarily unadjusted, the constraints failed, giving the Fragment of Demise a chance for a surprise attack.
That surprise attack led to the Skyfall Spaceship crashing, but the Star God on the spaceship didnât âfail.â
The God immediately sealed the Fragment of Demise, adjusted the landing speed of the spaceship, restrained the Spark so it wouldnât scatter too much, and prevented the spaceship from crashing into Terra, averting the destruction of Terra and leaving hope for the Cradleâs survival.
The Star God did everything it could do, and after sealing the Fragment of Demise, it also perished.
Its body crumbled and decomposed, transforming into the first wave of Aether-Origin Quality Spiritual Energy that swept over Terra, with some fragments left in the vast space from the Cradleâs gap to the Comet Cloud, others falling on Terra, some landing on the New Continent, and several others in the Tranquil Sea.
As for why different fragments were located at the two ends of the planet...
Ian had a bold guess.
"Could it be that the Skyfall Spaceship directly penetrated the entire Terra Planet? The Tranquil Sea, being on the other side of Terra Planet, seems to be the New Continent!"
Slightly reconstructing the star structure of Terra in his mind, Ian couldnât help but gasp: "So it could be that the entire Tranquil Sea isnât merely a sea but a gigantic molten pit?"
This isnât impossible, rather, in the absence of continental compression, the Mediterranean-like Tranquil Sea shouldnât exist at all!
It is the largest âlandform changeâ caused by the âCalamity of Heavenly Fallâ! Just because itâs so vast, the average person wouldnât even consider this point.
Following this line of thought, Ian realized there are many other things that could be explained. "The âMantle Pillarâ suppressed over at Far Shore Island...could it be the âaftershockâ left by that impact?"
"After all, it pierced through the entire planet, even if the Star God and Thousand-Star Beast pacified most of the damage, some couldnât be smoothed out, which led to the awkward situation on Far Shore Island today!"
"And some of the lingering sighs and grievances of the Star God transformed into the Silent True Demon, guarding the technology within its fragments, waiting for someone like me or future âPioneersâ to obtain it."
"But among future Terra People, there was no one who met the criteria, so the True Demon remained silent, unless thereâs a problem with the seal on Dragon Island, otherwise it remained unmoved."
"Until I arrived."
Ian came to the Realm of Light not by coincidence; he had been searching all over Whole Terra for information about the Skyfall Spaceship and relics of pre-era civilizations. With such a large pre-era labyrinth in the Realm of Light right here, he, as the King of Fiery Flame Land, definitely had to take a look.
But he didnât expect that the information contained in the Realm of Light would be so important!
"In those battles, the Star God must have done something to the Fragment of Demise, otherwise, the coupleâs timing wouldnât be so synchronized."
Steadying his mind, Ian calmed down: "Perhaps, in their battles, they embedded parts of each other into themselves?"
Earlier, when he went to Dragon Island under Mahdiâs identity, he obtained many data that seemed somewhat meaningless then, but now, those data are extremely valuable, at least, if he hadnât gone to Dragon Island, he wouldnât have sensed the essence of the Black Hole Seal or obtained related maintenance times.
But the problem arisesâIan had only recently undergone the Ashen Pathway.
He remembered Terra was devastated long ago by an enhanced version of the Calamity of Light, likely wiping out the Realm of Light, and the Silent True Demon should have vanished long ago.
If there really is a connection between the True Demon and the Fragment of Demise, then why did the fragment break free over 160 million years later in Dragon Island? Is the influence unilateral?
Or is it that because the Silent True Demon perished, the Fragment of Demise only broke free after 160 million years?
This question lacks clues and is hard to answer.
"I need to have another chat with Dragon Island." Ian thought to himself, then walked further towards the center of the Realm of Light.
He recalled, during the Ashen Pathway, the Fragment of Demise did nothing and directly headed to the star, creating a Black Hole Nest.
Is this normal or abnormal? If The End is indeed a life form of wisdom, why didnât it avenge the long imprisonment at Dragon Island or âAshen Ianâ?
Hmm...The End is a life form of the time axis, perhaps it doesnât mind being sealed for those billions of years? Or perhaps being inside a black hole doesnât even count as being sealed to it?
For a moment, the thoughts were complex, but Ianâs understanding of the existence form of The End became clearer: "Speaking of which, if I take a part of the Silent True Demon to the Black Hole Seal on Dragon Island to attempt communication with the Fragment of Demise...will the Fragment react?"
Thinking of this, Ian turned and looked directly at the Pupationer following him, who appeared to be shocked.
The Pupationer remained stunned by Ianâs awakening of the Silent True Demon; in the past, forces centered in the City of Knowledge conducted numerous studies on the Realm of Light and the Silent True Demon, but results were generally fruitless.
