Like a sharp ramming angle, Cape Avogarod slammed headlong into the depths of the dazed sea with the persistence of a dwarf, it was originally part of the Great Plains of Ilophas, but when the entire Iroface Plains collapsed into the sky and became a ruin under the sea, the remaining land seemed out of place.

Dwarves live in this devastated land, and their numbers have been small since the time of the pre-era civilization, especially after the genetic modification of the whole population, after all, no one likes to be a solid square, and only those who are originally dwarves will retain their cultural traditions and be proud of their identity.

However, as the toughest of all races, some special classes, such as the deep space exploration class and the alien exploration class, require the tenacity and strength of the dwarves.

The tenacity and unity of the dwarves allowed them to survive the most vicious storms in the Fall of the Sky, preserving the remnants of the pre-era civilization around the Ustaraf Mountains, mainly the 'Polar Star Zenith'.

Seeking the Heavens.

At an altitude of 5,600 meters above sea level, even the Terra people are not easily adapted, only the dwarves are born with low oxygen tolerance and can move freely, which was originally adapted to the talent in the underground caves, and it is also useful to use it in high places.

The main peak of the Ustaraf Mountains rises to the sky, and the cascading mountains resemble a rampart that surrounds the capital of the Republic of Gantrigham, 'Votem', or 'City of Aspirations'.

At this time, it was evening, the afterglow of the setting sun was blocked by the mountains, the city was already night, and above the mountains, the light of the sun had not yet completely fallen, and the twilight streamer flowed in the sky, and the towering tower of the Holy Word even the real dragon needed to look up to see the whole picture.

At the top of the Tower of Sacred Words, you can overlook the entire Wish City, the dwarven city does not show any clues on the surface, but if you look closely, you can find that the bottom of the mountains and plateaus has a whole huge structure like an ant's nest.

The Grand Forger of the Republic of Gantregham, the 39th Creator's Hammer, the Soul Abyss Forger, and the Shield of the Abyss are waiting at the top of the Tower of the Sacred Word, which is far away from the umbrella-shaped Polestar Zenith in the distance, representing the civilization and present of the dwarves, and the sacred land and aspirations of the dwarves.

The gray-skinned, metal-cast dwarf was visibly resolute and stubborn, but he was not a conservative, and on the contrary, the stubbornness of the dwarves was for one thing: their desires.

If one thing is contrary to the tenets of their hearts, then no one can convince him except the violence and unequivocal facts that destroy the mind—so the dwarves are either extreme radicals or extreme conservatives, and they can hardly have a middle state.

Panros is one such radical who is committed to completely reshaping the social structure and state system of the dwarves to adapt to future changes.

He knows that Terra is about to usher in the biggest change in history, and he also wants to use the relics of the pre-era civilization protected by the dwarves to get Gant Righam out of the geopolitical predicament as soon as possible, but even if he is the fifth level, sometimes he will really be stunned by his own people.

A group of conservatives who think that 'it's not the right time' with a group of people who are not afraid of death oppose his policy, but they are all well-intentioned, and they can only meet and discuss all day long, and persuade one by one.

Fortunately, the dwarves are republicans, as long as they can continuously vote for radical leaders, the conservatives will also be willing to gamble and lose, obey the national deployment without violating the major festivals, and complete the national tasks, but it is a dream to expect them to have any subjective initiative.

Thankfully, there's Ian Silverpeak.

The Prophet's path to the arcane path is a perfect testament to Bandros' vision: the world will change dramatically, and the advanced armor and aether armament technology alone will not be able to protect the country and take the lead in the future, and the conservative policies of the dwarves must also change, and they must become more radical in the political arena of Terra.

The Arcane Path, the iron-clad facts smashed like a hammer on the heads of the conservative dwarves, beating them into a new appearance, they calmly admitted their mistakes, conformed to the general trend of the times, and walked on the path of Panros and the Arcane Path.

And that's why Panros is willing to wait here.

for he heard the call.

The call of the Founder of the Arcane Path.

The light is condensing.

The aether particles that appeared out of thin air sprang up in Terra's environment, forming special structures that swirled and fluttered like fireflies floating in mid-air, arranging to form a tangible image.

Image of Ian Silverpeak.

[Thank you for being willing to wait for me]

The aether humanoid nodded slightly at the Hammer of Creation, and he smiled, "So, would you like to assist me in my experiments? 】

"Silverpeak Prophet."

Panros said in a deep voice: "Ganthrigum sent four teams of great engineers to help you rebuild the ladder of the previous era civilization, we don't owe you anything, and I didn't agree to assist you in your experiments, I just want to understand why you need ......"

[Need your Polestar Zenith, to be precise, the 'Avogadro Deep Space Shuttle']

Ian said calmly: [The reason is complicated, I can explain it to you in detail later - in short, I need to use it to send something out, it won't take long, I can personally supply the energy, and by the way, I will check for you what it may be faulty...... Actually, you know that, right? You dwarves don't have the means to maintain Avogadro's deep space shuttle, so it's not forbidden for anyone else to touch it.]

But I can. I have. I can leave it to you]

"You ......"

Pan Roth took several deep breaths, he didn't even think to agree, because as Ian said, they didn't actually have the ability to maintain their holy relics, so they could only use the most rigorous and complex methods to determine the information of all the parts of this device 1,600 years ago, and then replace the parts that were determined to be in exactly the same performance when they found that they were 'damaged'.

They don't really know what those parts are for, but they can use the most powerful forging technology to forcibly reproduce an identical one - the pursuit of perfect replica is also the source of the dwarves' powerful technical power, and they can even fully grasp the production process of replicating this type of armor through a single inspection after the armor upgrade of other countries.

Nothing is a secret in the hands of the dwarves...... Except for their holy places.

But now, perhaps, their holy place is no longer there.

"How can I trust you?"

His grayish-black face darkened in color, and he said in a deep voice, "If the relics are damaged, all the dwarves will be against you - don't lie, Prophet! ”

[It's very simple]

And Ian said softly, "I have traveled back in time and seen the entire process of the Avogadro Deep Space Shuttle from draft to final result - I know their creations better than their creators]

[Panros, I can completely rebuild a deep space shuttle by myself, but how many years will it take? Ten years, twenty years? It would take more than ten years at the shortest, which is not an exaggeration, because its creators, the Manians, spent their entire civilization one hundred and thirty years in order to forge this miracle of civilization.

[Its core is an aether tunneling generator that can penetrate time and space and transcend distance...... It's a creation second only to a perpetual motion machine, and even I can't easily recreate it.]

[I don't really need your relics, but I need to save time...... Panros, help me, you can get my friendship]

[You know, although I don't mind lying, this kind of thing is not worth it]

“……”

Varos was deep in thought, of course he also knew that the dwarves had protected the Avogadro Deep Space Shuttle and the many ruins of pre-era civilizations around it, and there were many 'Tinder Creations' that were difficult for them to master even with alien technology, which was the fundamental reason why they could not properly maintain it.

Ian's offer is very tempting, just borrowing, you can get his friendship, and you can also know the specific maintenance of the holy relics...... He had no reason to refuse.

"I see."

He looked up, "Just activate the relics, I have to submit a report to the committee - they will agree." ”

"I still have a question, though."

Exhaling deeply, there was also a hint of blush on Panros's gray ironstone face: "Avogadro Deep Space Shuttle...... It...... What is its real effect? ”

It sounds incredible: the dwarves have guarded sacred sites for sixteen hundred years, but they don't even know what they're guarding for.

But Ian knew that this was exactly what the dwarves did, because he didn't know what it was for, and it represented the greatest effect, like a hammer, constantly beating the arrogance of the dwarves, so that they could walk in the path of ignorance and have a clear direction.

That's the guide. Even ignorance is a guide, and clear unknowns are a broad road.

At this moment, Varos was still whispering: "We know that the vision generated when maintaining it can break through the celestial dome and manifest the dark starry sky, in which all the distances are shortened, and even distant planets can easily see its surface, so we call it the Polar Star Zenith, the closest place to the star dome." ”

"Once upon a time, all the stargazers of all Terra would gather there, but as the stars went out and the stargazers died out, so did the sky that emerged from the zenith of the pole star...... And we don't even know why. ”

[Yes]

Ian sighed slightly: "You don't know why]

At this moment, he couldn't help but recall the past before I don't know how many reincarnations.

In those distant times, there were some Ian who had also come to Gant Righam.

As the great engineer of the human race, the second generation of grand craftsmen who are dwarfs more than the dwarves, Ian's name even entered the Central Standing Committee of Gantreagum and became one of the highest powers in the country.

For the first time, in those planes, Ian saw other stars so clearly...... See the 'Heavenly Hell' clearly.

Not told by others, nor from ancient ruins, by the curtain opened by the Polestar Zenith, he saw the walls of Hell, the wound, and the infinite light...... and the end beyond the light.

And the dwarf in front of him, this resolute and calm forger, also taught his skills - and in the invasion of the Heavenly Court, in order to protect the Holy Land, he also fought to the end with the Great Khan, who was close to the end of his life, so he launched the last expedition, and the aftermath of their battle even affected the gravitational changes of Terra, causing the orbit of the stars and the moon to change,

And the last sigh he left before he died, the last wish of his life, is exactly the same as what he just asked.

- Ian.

- It's ...... This sacred relic, which we have guarded for 1,600 years, is a relic that has been engraved in our blood by our ancestors, admonished, and even begged for our protection......

INTERVIEWER What is its real purpose?

Therefore, looking at the old man in front of him, and looking at the different but identical old dwarf in many time and space, Ian slowly said the answer he had found after countless reincarnations.

[Avogadro Deep Space Shuttle, what does it really do......]

【It's any door】

[Panros, it's not the 'hyperspace vortex accelerator' you imagined, it's not a world-destroying weapon, it's not a super deep space telescope, and it's naturally not the outrageous 'planetary engine']

[It is the doorknob of a door, it is ...... A 'Random Gate' that you can reach as long as you can see it.]

"Any door?"

Pan Ross blinked, he didn't understand too much: "But, what door?" Why didn't I see the door? ”

And Ian patiently continued to explain: [The pitch-black star dome created by the zenith of the pole star, and the stars you see are actually the 'select target' state before the deep space shuttle is activated, but you don't know the control instructions, so you can only randomly select the star field]

[As long as the target is selected, the deep space shuttle will create a wormhole and directly open the door to the other side of the space-time]

[It uses the ether-causal link to create space-time tunneling, as long as the two space-time have a basic causal chain, for example, the same beam of light passes through these two regions, it can create a space-time gateway to link the two places - this technology may be a bit over-the-top for you, but the star god generally has a similar transition structure in the body, in fact, the Avogadro deep space shuttle is a giant structure created by simulating the jump of the star god]

[Therefore, as long as we can see the light of the stars, the deep space shuttle can take us to the time and space where the stars are located]

[However, there is also a limit, the limit distance of the deep space teleporter is between fifteen and twenty-five light-years, and in extreme cases, it will even be compressed into two light-years, but in general, it is a very simple way to teleport space-time]

“…… Incredible. ”

Panros muttered, "We all guessed wrong...... But how could you possibly guess correctly? We're on the wrong track......"

[The wrong way may actually allow you to go further]

Ian shook his head slightly: "And shortcuts will make you go longer. The dwarves have evolved a very special technocratic bureaucracy through the study of deep space shuttles, and then have the highest level of mechanical engineering in Terra, as long as you continue to research, you will probably find out how the deep space shuttle works in eighty years, and then gradually master its use]

"Is this the comfort of the prophet?"

[This is the undoubted future]

"I see." The dwarf nodded, and he looked at the Polestar Zenith: "Manians...... What kind of race are they? Did they come to our planet with the Avogadro Deep Space Shuttle? ”

"They...... Does it still exist? ”

[Strictly speaking, no]

Ian also looked at the Polestar Zenith: "The Manians are our neighbors, and any gate is not arbitrary...... Even the Aether True Body, which is fully maintained by the fifth energy level, cannot withstand the space-time pressure when any gate is activated, in other words, even the fifth energy level cannot cross time and space through it]

[Unless, it's transporting a dead thing]

【A Tinder】

Ian turned his head and looked at Panros, at his heart, at the blood of the top seat, the heart of the rock that was incomparably hard: [Coincidentally, the Manians are a special kind of silicon-based creatures, they were born in the deep lava caverns underground, and they did not go down like other similar species, but endured the cold and the hollow, and continued to climb upwards]

[They dig holes, they build earth, they build huge cities and magnificent wonders deep underground...... Under the guidance of the underworld, they went all the way up, upward, breaking the barriers of crystals, crossing the surging dark river, they chiseled through the incomparably solid veins, and broke through the rock formations and frost hundreds of kilometers thick.

[Eventually, they came to the surface]

[Dead silence, cold, 'frozen planet' covered in endless frost - the first pioneer to lead his people out of the earth died in the siphon of the extreme vacuum environment, he was swept into space, and became a meteorite around the planet Mania]

[However, before he lost consciousness, he saw the starry sky, the infinite expanse, the sun twinkling on the other side of time and space, and the gas giant orbiting his home star...... Pale Blue 'Sky Dome']

[That is his reward, his wish]

[He will never shrink back from his death, and will move forward eternally, seeking the sky...... Heart of the Rock】

Ian said to the pensive Panros, "This may be the reason why dwarves can easily adapt to the blood of the heart of the rock, because you already have similar hearts and desires...... The Manians are gone, but they remain]

[Exists in all dwarves, in the hearts of all travelers who seek the sky]

Ian turned his head again and looked at the giant structure in the distance, his eyes shining with light: [The pre-epoch civilization used fire to create a deep space accelerator, but they did not find enough energy to activate this giant thing, and when they created the true Aether furnace, which could allow the dragon of Terra to be responsible for the power source of this giant structure, the Heavenly Fall disaster struck again]

[Obviously, the deep space accelerator is the most important key to transporting the fire, so the ancestors of the dwarves must protect it no matter what...... You've done a great job, it's barely damaged, it's incredible, 1,600 years later, it's still running smoothly.]

"We are like one day for a thousand years."

Bandros said a dwarven proverb, and he received the message at this moment: "There are some opinions on the committee, but the vote is for you." ”

[I heard it, they wanted me to come forward in person, prove my existence, and form an alliance with Ganter Righam]

Ian smiled slightly, all the information of the whole world was almost no secret in his eyes, he had disappeared for so many years, even if the Silver Peak Territory was still developing at a high speed, there would be some people who had doubts: [Yes, but I have to start it first]

"In such a hurry?"

[Time waits for no one]

Ian and Panros flew towards the deep space accelerator, and the Hammer of Creation suddenly remembered something: "Wait, don't you say, the fifth energy level can't cross any gate?" You should be no exception, right? ”

Ian nodded slightly: "As long as there is no perpetual motion machine, there is no way to pass through any door alive - does it feel malice?" Without a perpetual motion machine, many Star God Creations simply can't be used]

At this time, Pan Ross was a little confused: "Then what are you going to do?" Transmitting the spark of humanity? ”

[I'm going to teleport my spaceship, one of my exploration satellites]

Ian said calmly: [Follow the light, directly teleport to a dozen light years away. Test something very important]

"You didn't mean that." Pan Ross was puzzled: "Nothing can be sent except fire?" Spaceships and satellites, aren't they easily crushed? ”

[I'll put a protective case on them]

Ian raised his hand, and in his hand, a pitch-black orb was rapidly forming.

"Hell?!"

Seeing this inconspicuous pitch-black ball, Pan Ross was taken aback, as the holder of the deep space shuttle, of course the dwarf had observed the Heavenly Hell: "You can actually create the Heavenly Hell Barrier?!" ”

[This is my confidence]

Ian chuckled and said, "I never make unprepared plans]

Pan Ross nodded slightly, he was completely persuaded by Ian, and no longer expressed any opinion on Ian's actions.

Soon, Ian was on the Pole Star Zenith.

It looked like a huge, blown umbrella, maybe a bit like a radar or some kind of vector push, no wonder the dwarves had thought that it might be some kind of planetary engine or planetary shield - after all, with the Imperial Capital Jewel in front of them, there was some basis for their blind guessing.

However, its energy consumption is more terrifying than that of the Imperial Capital, and for so many years, it has not been without glory, and they have completely built an Aether Furnace Array that is enough to make the Imperial Capital run at full power, but at most, it can activate the deep space shuttle, let it find a target from time to time, and create a pitch-black star dome vision.

And the real launch is either a moment of full impetus from a civilization, or a perpetual motion machine.

But Ian is different.

Raising his hand, under Ian's power, the entire Polestar Zenith was surrounded by countless lights, and hundreds of millions of ether particles rushed out of the void in accordance with Ian's will, forming a large snake entangled around the zenith between the sky and the earth for a while, completely enveloping the entire deep space launcher.

The surging energy used Ian's body as a channel, spurting out like a surging torrent, and at this moment, even the fifth-level Panros felt his insignificance, compared to Ian's output, he was like a gurgling stream, which would only be easily submerged!

"You?!"

He incredulously said, "You have already built a perpetual motion machine by yourself?!" ”

[Maybe]

Ian was noncommittal: [There are many kinds of perpetual motion machines, and what the star god wants us to build is a 'space-time perpetual motion machine' based on infinite time and space]

[But I also found another way...... It is indeed very difficult to construct an infinite circle of self, but what if I directly found a 'universe' that is near, or even directly infinitely energetic?

Saying this, Ian laughed, "As long as I use my body as a channel, I can infinitely attract the energy of that plane to my own use—at least it's okay to charge it]

Panros knew exactly what Ian meant by what he said - as an ally who had worked with the Silver Peak Leader to rebuild the Ladder, he also knew that Ian's journey was to find the origin of the Aether...... He had thought that Ian would not gain much if he did, but for now, he had found another way to the path of infinite energy.

Or even a much easier way.

As long as you are far enough away in the ether, you can naturally find the infinite energy world in the infinite possible worlds, and the hot, infinitely expanding universe is pregnant with many strange creatures, and perhaps there are huge groups of pure energy creatures such as the Sun God Bird in it...... But that's just a theory, and who knows if Ian can actually find it?

"Where have you explored?"

At this moment, there was a hint of awe in his voice, for he knew very well that the people who could do all this had gone beyond the boundaries that they could not surpass.

Fifth energy level? Sixth energy level?

It doesn't make sense at all...... Ian doesn't need a realm to climb, the path he walks, the signposts he leaves behind, is their realm.

Ian whispered, "The end of everything - I have arrived at the second of the Dao, the universe of heat and nothingness, the home of glow and emptiness]

"Then why did you come back? You can just jump over the end and soar up! ”

[Panros, you ask this question precisely because you don't understand me. I want to go further, not to be explored, empty, only the end of the glow]

Ian looked up calmly, and with one hand reached out, through time and space, to the New Moon, where a house-sized 'cradle' had been prepared by the Grand Duke of Steep Castle and dragged by Ian to the Deep Space Shuttle.

[I want to go to a distant place - and there is no end to the distance]

Brilliant light and pure darkness, the cradle is the pitch black that absorbs all light, all energy, and it is placed in the center of the deep space shuttle, and the huge, umbrella-like structure closes to protect the cradle in the center, like a closed bud.

The pitch-black star dome reappeared, the sky and space at the top of the sky dome swayed, and with the impetus of almost infinite energy, the Avogadro deep space shuttle was really activated again after thousands of years, and the space was churning violently like a tide, and the direction it was aimed at was ......

It's pitch black, and there's not a star on the other side.

[All stars are sealed by the cradle, or devoured by the end, Parath, do you think I want to explore the other stars? No, what I'm trying to explore is the darkness of nothingness, whether it's destruction or nothingness, I can get the answer]

Ian said softly, and he laughed: [Launch]

As a result, space-time was distorted and torn, and around the pitch-black star curtain, the spatial lines like water waves were like encountering a cliff, encountering an incomparably deep abyssal cave, and suddenly disappeared, and the violent and incomparably disordered space-time caused the entire Terra to seem to shake slightly.

Then, starting from Terra, a space-time curve with a total length of more than 9200 billion kilometers appeared for a moment, and then vanished.

Cradle.

The Extreme Wind Dragon King, who had already built a huge observation base around the cradle, saw that with a ripple, something had penetrated the cradle and came beyond the cradle.

Beyond the cradle.

The final twist bent for a moment, the teleportation that occurred in the 'instant' was so clear to it that it even tried to capture the aether in the middle of the 'teleportation' with near-zero time - but it didn't find the cradle moon wrapped in the aether space-time.

Nearly ten light-years away, the universe is in a vacuum.

The miniature cradle slowly dissipated, it was fixed by Ian, and it would automatically disappear as soon as it came outside the cradle, and the 'satellite' wrapped in it, a flowing light emerged from it, and then condensed into a white-haired human form.

He opened his eyes, and the cyan light stared into the distance.

Part of Ian came out of the cradle.

For the first time, so far away.

"Hmm. The aether is spreading, if not deliberately driven, at the speed of light. ”

After unlocking the miniature cradle, Ian knew that the overflowing aether of his existence would spread, and might attract the ultimate to it, but if it spread at the speed of light, he would not be able to perceive his presence until five years later.

Of course, there must be a time-sensing system in the end, so he could come at any time - so hurry.

So, at this moment, in the empty and dark vacuum, in the silent universe, Ian looks around the entire universe space-time.

There is not a single star.

The whole universe is only silent, there is not a trace of starlight, everything is pitch black.

All the stars were dimmed, and not even the slightest light existed.

A silence that borders on despair.

However, Ian is not discouraged or has any regrets.

He had already guessed this possibility, because long before the Terra civilization came out of the Stone Age, the stars in the sky had begun to fade, and by the time Terra began to build the cradle, it was likely that all the starlight would have been swallowed up long ago.

In the entire etheric universe, because of the war between the star gods and the end, the stars were either turned into black holes, surrounded by pitch black, or banned by the cradle.

Terra was able to see the stars even thanks to the Fall and the Cradle itself, the space-time membrane of the wound that recorded starlight too far away, and it released little by little, so that it could maintain its light even after the stars of the outside world had been extinguished by the war that transcended time and space.

"However, the black one is a bit too much, and I think the black hole also emits light."

Shaking his head slightly, Ian raised his head and looked in the direction he had 'come', the cyan light in his eyes swirling: "Now, let me take a good look at the situation in Terra's Cradle from the 'outside world'......"

The wound in Terra's Cradle would spill out a faint amount of aether, and Ian could use it to direct his own observations, which was not possible, and the light from that place was very obvious to him, but he was now seeing what it was five years ago.

And five years ago, it was almost the time when he became a star god and gave up - there was a great probability that his spread had spread to this place, so Ian could even 'see' the process of his own advancement to the star god, as well as the frequency of the ether fluctuations.

Ian unfolds 'Chrono Perception' and 'Normal Aether Perception' at the same time, as well as 'Terra's Cradle's perspective now' and 'Terra's Cradle's perspective five years ago'.

This was not difficult for him, but Ian also sensed that in the past five years, the Cradle of Terra has moved a considerable distance in the universe, and the space-time axis has changed to a certain extent.

It's not surprising, Ian thought that the cradle is not standing still, just as the solar system seems to be standing still, but is actually swaying at the edge of the river system, as long as the perspective is macroscopic enough, even the entire universe will shake like a bacterial community in a bacterial vessel.

However, after sensing the speed of Terra's Cradle movement slightly, Ian was suddenly stunned.

"Five Light Years ......"

He muttered, "Five years have moved five light years......"

What?

For a while, even Ian didn't understand what this meant, five years to move five light years, isn't this light? It's normal, the super-light speed of the etheric universe is so simple that the speed of light seems to be just a sparse and ordinary thing, not to mention anything else, in Terra, the third-level sun god bird can barely move with light.

But here's the problem.

It's not light that's moving, it's not a faster-than-light ship.

It's the whole cradle that's moving.

There seemed to be a rumbling thunder in the silent universe.

The massive space-time aggregate with a radius of five light years is moving at the speed of light, and through the super-temporal perception and normal aether perception, Ian, who is observing two points in time at the same time, perceives the trajectory of the entire cradle...... It's almost a straight line.

The reason why I say almost is because with Ian's perception, he can distinguish anything that is not absolutely straight.

The reason why it is still said to be straight is because the curvature is so small and so small that it does not even exist.

How so?

An infinite circle, its lines, is such a curve that is infinitely close to a straight line.

"Why did you move like this......

Ian's eyes locked on the location of Terra's cradle, and he could be sure that Terra's cradle was moving directly at the speed of light, but he had no idea why, it didn't make sense, and it could even be said - what was the force that dragged a collection of space-time with a radius of five light years moving at nearly the speed of light?

It doesn't make sense at all!

But just when Ian couldn't figure it out at all, suddenly, he saw it.

In the light of five years ago, another dark shadow suddenly appeared.

What?

Ian's attention was immediately drawn to it, and he noticed that on one side of Terra's cradle, there seemed to be another massive, dark shadow that had cut off the aether.

No, not one side.

Rather, on both sides.

Ian's horizon gradually expands, transcending time and space, centered on the Cradle of Terra, where the fog is dispelled and the horizon is lit up.

So, he saw it.

As the Cradle of Terra sped away at the speed of light, one after another 'dark planes' followed it around it, speeding along with the Cradle of Terra.

Is that......

Cradle.

Other cradles.

Ian's eyes widened slowly.

Around the cradle of Terra, he saw a cradle, two, four, eight...... More and more, more and more, countless cradles swirled and galloped, forming a dark river.

A surging black torrent flowed through the tranquil universe, countless cradles spinning and flowing, turning in straight curves in the infinite universe.

What exactly is this?

Ian turned around abruptly, and he looked behind him - he no longer wanted to be cautious, but urged all of his aether to bless after his failure to advance to the Star God, from the [Great Aetheric Circulation?] ] in the 'Great Derivative Horizon'.

Then he saw, as clearly as a painter looks at his own book.

My own front and back, left and right, up and down, all of them.

It's all cradles.

The silent universe, the pitch-black vacuum, and the countless cradles that rotate in space-time at nearly the speed of light, are connected by the strings of the universe, and if you look at it from the perspective of time and space, it is a dark river.

But if we look at it from a perspective that transcends time and space, then we will come up with an answer that is beyond everyone's imagination.

It's a 'ring'.

The huge [Infinite Ring], which rotates at the speed of light, is based on an unknown number of cradles, and may span the entire infinite universe.

Whatever it is, it seems incredible when it comes to infinity.

An infinite universe.

An infinite number of lives were born.

The Star Gods helped all living beings by collecting their tinder and pouring it into the 'cradle'.

The number of cradles is one thousandth, one ten-thousandth, or even one millionth of the number of living races.

So, what is the number of cradles?

It's unlimited.

So, let's arrange the cradles.

Can an infinite cradle, forming a line, surround the entire infinite universe?

What about the two lines?

Ten of a kind?

A trillion?

It's ridiculous to say, it's incredible and unbelievable to think about, but that's the way it is.

Ian saw that the cradles that could not be quantified flowed endlessly, turning into an infinite river with no end in sight, no depth in sight, and no other shore, in which the cradles sometimes appeared and sometimes disappeared, because these cradles sometimes did not exist in physical space-time, but in other parallel universes.

This is not a ring that exists only in a single universe, it is a ring that spans infinite parallel space-time.

"No, there aren't so many cradles......"

At this moment, Ian suddenly realized: "If I only exist in this universe, I can only see the cradle of Terra, and I can only see this lonely star drifting in the universe." The few of their kind, moving with the same pace from an unknown number of light years away, were extremely lonely. ”

"But I don't exist in a single universe."

"I am the result of Ian in an infinite parallel space-time, and I am a 'half-star god'."

"That's why I can see...... I can see the aggregate of all the cradles in this infinite parallel time and space...... That's why we can see this endless torrent river. ”

"This truly infinite entity...... Infinite Ring. ”

For creatures with normal optical perspectives, they simply can't see beyond the light cone, and by the time they see the starlight, the star may have exploded and died.

They can't even see the borders of Terra's Cradle.

For beings with an aetheric perspective, they can perceive 'the light that was released by that star a thousand years ago and will arrive in front of my eyes in a thousand years', or 'a star that is now exploding in a supernova that is emitting infinite light and heat', and even 'I am here a thousand years from now and see the light of a supernova arrive in front of my eyes'.

Many prophets are at this level, with fragmentary aetheric perspectives, so they can glimpse information about time before and after, parallel time and space.

They can see the whole of Terra's Cradle, and even perceive the presence of 'other cradles'.

However, if we look beyond time and space, we can observe the existence of multiple universes at the same time...... You can understand the grandeur of the star god, which runs through the ultimate structure of infinite parallel time and space.

That is in different universes, in different space-times, in different probability tributaries, in different timelines and possibilities, in different cosmological constants...... An infinite cradle that moves on the same trajectory and unites to form an infinite ring.

And in the center of this Circle of Infinity, the Ring of Tranquility......

Ian seemed to sense something.

He raised his head and looked at the center of the Infinite Ring, the 'center' of the Aether universe.

There is nothing but Hollow.

Incredible power, the infinite power channeled by the Infinite Ring, pierced all parallel space, space and universe.

How so?

If one universe is one page of an infinitely thick book, then the other pages are other infinite parallel universes.

A person's ring is a certain page of this infinitely thick book, and a drop of ink penetrates into the next page or even the previous page, dyeing a certain position of the whole book into its own color, reaching the infinite realm.

The Great Aetheric Circulation is the tape that wraps the book or something, and in the end, the book is destined to turn into decaying ashes, and all parallel planes merge into one—even if that one ends up in ashes.

Then, this infinite circle is that all the ink in the book is collected and melts through all the pages, like an iron nail that pierces the whole book, penetrating all the pages that were originally separated, even ......

Not even the book and the tape can stop it, and they can't stop the ink from flowing to the [ending] of [outside the book]!

That's the Hollow!

There is a void on all pages, through all time and space, and as long as the 'ink' flows here, it will leave the book and come to the table, to the ground, to the dirt, gravel, and any other area that is impossible to imagine in the book.

Come to Other Universes

At this moment, because Ian used the aether excessively, his existence was apparently discovered by the outside world.

With the terrifying and indescribable darkness, he finally poked out his branches towards Ian, which was a doomed end, as long as he was a resident of this universe, no one could escape, no one could escape, it was an inevitability.

Unless it was never born, unless it never existed, unless it only stayed at the source and at the end, without affecting the universe or creating anything, it just waited in silence.

Unless......

【Leave this Universe】

"I see......"

Ian muttered to himself, he finally understood the meaning behind it all.

Watching the torrent of the cradle rush, his body dying, he will not be caught by the end, he will destroy himself if he is found, and the other 'Ian' will know what he sees: "The star gods have not fled, they have not failed, they are still fighting, but not in the way we imagined." ”

"Not fighting in this universe."

"I see, this is the cradle...... No, what I see is still too small, the real cradle is the universe itself! ”

"When the book becomes a blank space, the ashes of the book are meaningless."

"And the blank book ......"

"You can transcribe a new chapter!"

Ian outside the cradle was gone, and the branch of the end only extended along the aether stream, it had no wisdom and no motive, but because there was enough visible aether there, the branch extended.

There is no hostility, no thought, naturally there will be no suspicion, no mercy.

It still clings to the wound in Terra's cradle, waiting silently.

Inside the cradle.

Tara.

Ganter Righam.

Ian closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he knew everything.

[I see]

He whispered to himself, and then laughed: "I see...... Will eventually chase the aether...... Everything is clear]

"Ian?"

Rose looked at Ian, who had suddenly calmed down, and he felt a hint of danger: "Was the experiment successful?" ”

【Very successful】

Ian turned his head sideways to look at the old man, who was only eleven years away from the end of his life, and he said calmly, "I have found a way to save Terra from the end, a way to save the world—and a way to save all of you, so that you can live another life."

"What?"

Panros suspected he had misheard—how could he suddenly find a way to everything before Ian had begun his experiments, less than five minutes had passed?

And then, what Ian said made him feel even more incredible: [But before that, I want to reshape the whole world]

[Panros, Terra is sick, the world is sick. There is no need for a plural fifth level in a star field, and if there is a plural fifth level, it means that it must have a sixth energy level to suppress these fifth energy levels - the sixth energy level with a perpetual motion machine.

[If there is no sixth energy level of perpetual motion machine, then there should not be more than two fifth energy levels, because their war will destroy everything, whether it is civilization or life, history or the future]

[Terra was unfortunate and lucky—unfortunately, there were more than thirty fifth-level levels on this planet, which was enough for them to tear down the entire planet twenty times and go back and forth.] Fortunately, the thirty fifth-level energy levels have reached a balance, and our world has existed stably for 1,600 years.]

[Such a super cradle must be guarded by the star gods, but our Heavenly Father passed away to protect us]

[Heavenly Father's aether created our world, created Terra and the Void that are stronger than ordinary planets, created the realm of light and semi-perpetual motion machines - and even, the reason why prophets like me appear frequently in Terra is precisely because the Father's aether that transcends time and space is scattered all over the world, and the prophet's foresight may be the reason why Terra has existed for 1,600 years]

"What the hell are you trying to say, Ian?!"

When Varos heard this, he already felt an incomparably strange feeling—his intelligence told him that Ian was extremely dangerous at the moment, but his fifth-level super-temporal instinct told him that there was no danger.

[Terra doesn't need a fifth level, Panros!] 】

And Ian's eyes burned around the world, and he said in a deep voice: "Your voice is too loud, too vast, like a storm, overpowering everyone's voice, everyone's will]

The storm roared, so that no one could hear the weeping...... Only quiet, only a quiet world, can people hear the sound of tears falling to the earth! 】

[Only when the sound of tears resounded in everyone's ears, the fifth energy level could be born]

[Only in the future where tears will never fall again, can Terra be worthy of the real 'sixth energy level'! ] 】

In fact, if it was the period of monster killing, it would not be so troublesome to go to other universes, but now it is eight million years ago when monster killing, and the ice condensation void and the great seal have frozen the void very strongly, especially the star gods and the universe where they are located is relatively special, and the freezing is exceptionally strong, so it takes a lot of effort.
