Chapter 2091: Chapter 50: Yes, I Love You Too!
Theyâre both ghosts to each other, as it were.
So, if the roles were reversed, what if the Star God and the End were the very beginning and end of the universe, staring at each other from afar?
The Star God, accustomed to wandering the vast cosmos, and the End, used to exploring âblack holesâ similar to its homeland, until one day the True Ether spread, startling the âEndâ who was exploring all black holes in the infinite parallel space-times?
Ian did not delve further into it; now was not the time to trace the origins of the End.
He merely keenly perceived that it was no accident the End could notice him.
Because âIanâ exists simultaneously in many parallel space-times as one of the Immortals, and compared to other lives that are too insignificant for the End, âIanâs existence is already significant enough.
At least as much of a difference as between bacteria and the southern giant cockroach, the End surely can see.
But the premise was that âIanâ could leave the Cradle.
To date, all âIan,â except for a few paths like the Dying Star Path, are within the âCradle.â In other words, even if Ian were the southern giant cockroach, heâs still the little cute one hiding in the shadows, unnoticed.
Though Ian couldnât figure out why the End should notice him... he knew one thing.
Observation is mutual, as is communication.
Though Ian hadnât yet figured out whether the End had self-awareness, within this âCradle,â and even more so within the whole aether-less Great Universe, he was likely the only surviving âStar God Fetus.â
Hm. Canât be so arrogant. Who knows if there are other Star God Fetuses in other âCradlesâ? But even if there are, they surely arenât many.
For now, he had much to do... For everyone, not just himself, to find a true path leading to the farthest reaches, unimpeded by any obstacles; this was what a Pioneer should do.
At this moment, the meteors formed by the dispersing Star Godâs Body stirred gentle aether winds across the Terra Continent.
Bathe within the wind, Starfall Sea.
The many Fifth Energy Level powerhouses gathered here, who had prepared for the final confrontation, fell into silence.
They exchanged glances, suppressing the astonishment and disbelief in their eyes.
ââThat... was the Sixth Echelon?
ââNo, itâs the Star God!
Powerhouses on the Terra Continent, who reached the Fifth Energy Level, were generally aware of the hidden secrets of previous era civilizations, and there were many who knew of Star Gods, or âHeavenly Father,â âThe Creatorâânot knowing anything would indeed be strange.
So they understood that, according to logical reasoning, the usual Sixth Energy Level could not possibly be as grandiosely imposing as Ian just now!
Even with a Perpetual Motion Machineâs support, it would be absolutely impossible like Ian did before, to directly drive immense inscription arrays that could influence planetary systems and stars... They needed extensive preparation to achieve effects like the Star God.
And the only gap between them was one thing.
The Rites of the Star Gods.
[Did we take the wrong path?]
At Fifth Energy Level of Gantreignum, the Creatorâs Hammer, Panros the Steadfast murmured, his eyebrows, like metal strips, furrowing: [Heavenly Father, The Creator, Star Gods... What kind of existences are they? What conditions are needed? Or is it...]
[Only by having that Legacy can one become the Sixth Energy Level, become a Star God?]
[Not necessarily]On the other side, at Fifth Energy Level of the Elves, Eternal Wind, Averlyn Qingye said: [Donât forget, it was Hiliard who tried to break through to the Sixth Energy Level back then, not Yinaiga]
[Now it seems, if Ian relied on the photonic furnace, then Hiliard relied on the Imperial Capital... The Unyielding Fortress was always one with the Imperial Capital, serving as a near-perpetual energy core. The core furnace of the Imperial Capital plus the fundamental qualities of the Unyielding Fortress might indeed have touched that line...]
At this point, due to the spread of the Arcane Pathway and Ianâs implicit hints, all Fifth Energy Level powerhouses vaguely knew about the path beyond the Fifth Energy Level.
Some were elated, for they possessed resources meeting all the conditions to become the Sixth Energy Level; some furrowed their brows, for they realized how far they were from the Sixth Energy Level.
[Hey! Hey! Hey!]
But just as many Fifth Energy Levels were lost in thought because of Ianâs displayed power, a voice that shattered the atmosphere yet was quite pleasant emerged.
The colorful Fairy Queen furiously put her hands on her hips, hovering in the air, shamelessly scolding the twenty-odd Fifth Energy Levels before her: [Are you still going to fight or not? If not, then roll away. Stop acting crazy at the entrance of my home!]
By now, the reason the Fifth Energy Levels gathered here had vanishedâIan Silverpeak wasnât suspected of possessing the crucial item for advancing to the Sixth Energy Level; he had already become the Sixth, only interrupted midway to save Terra.
Some perceptive individuals noticed that precisely because Ian Silverpeak advanced to the Sixth Energy Level, the seals of Dragon Island and some distant mutations occurred, but if it were them... they mostly wouldnât stop their progression process.
To save Terra, they could have waited to complete their advancement first... Clearly having found hope, yet decisively releasing it, this kind of willpower was the most terrifying thing about Ian.
But...
They each had their own wishes too.
Ian could interrupt... but not necessarily them.
Thus, even knowing they owed him, at this moment... they still werenât willing to let go.
