above the sky

In the world of the heart connected to the Great Ether Circulation, Ian gained many memories of "himself in other parallel time and space", and this memory did not disappear just because he gave up becoming a Star God and returned to Terra.

In fact, he has obtained many of his 'previous life memories', but all of them are always based on Ian's memories and personality in this life.

After all, this is not about assimilating other people or me, or converging on parallel time and space selves... Ian has always been 'Ian', and now, he is the youngest Ian who can go the farthest.

Also the strongest Ian.

Ian sensed that not only the four incoming rays of light, but also all the fifth-level powerhouses in the world were watching him.

They are all waiting for him to use the divine power that shakes everything in the world. Not all of them may have malicious intentions, but they are indeed curious, eager, and want to experience that 'unknown' power.

And Ian decided to satisfy them.

Because, in the endless time and space, these 'enemies' and 'peepers' are also his teachers, elders and guardians. Ian knows their obsessions and wishes better than anyone else.

Since they want to experience it, let them experience it.

So, it's now, it's this moment.

Standing on the top of Silver Peak, the young man raised one arm.

The layers of ether that were like pages of a book were gathered in his hands, and the cyan light flowed, reflecting the silver stars in the sky.

Countless memories of parallel time and space are engraved on the ether. The king who rules the world and the devil who destroys the world are walking in the memory of the book. They cast a glance from the distant past or the future, and then they all smiled and sighed.

They—the Ians—raised their hands at the same time.

'--ring--'

'Ring' is the unit of infinity, 'Ring' is the source and end of infinity, 'Ring' is infinity itself.

Even if it is not completely completed, these "characteristics of the Star God" are enough to allow Ian to use extraordinary power.

In the midst of the fierce hurricane, Ian slashed out with his sword, causing the planet's atmosphere to move.

The mighty wind carried endless clouds and headed towards the entire continent of Terra, whether it was the volcanic land or the hot desert land.Whether it was the Frost Despair, or the top of Yuanyun Mountain... not only the four rays of light were repelled and swept away, but also everyone on the earth who was paying attention to Ian was greeted by a rain.

A drizzle may be like threads floating in the sky, hazy like mist; or it may be a heavy rain like the Milky Way pouring down, like a sea or a waterfall.

Endless water curtain, wind and rain, roaring across the sky and earth.

A swift rain fell across Terra.

Whether it is the pupa who has returned to the Flying Flame Land, or the Cangxing who is still on the way.Whether it is the Cangtian Royal Court or the Far Sword Port.All the fifth-level people who were watching the Silver Peak Leader were swept away by the wind and rain. They were already at the fifth-level, but they actually felt biting chills from the wind and rain, and the raindrops were as sharp as swords. Head down on them.

——There is will in Ian’s sword!
The wind of eternity felt it. This wind and rain was not a natural phenomenon, but a 'change in heaven and earth' stimulated by Ian's will. To ordinary people, the wind and rain were just ordinary rain. Only they could sense the energy contained in the ether. Those who receive information will be attacked by the materialized will contained in it.

Of course, she is an ally of Ian, so the attack she encounters is not so much an attack as a demonstration of some kind - a technique of penetrating the world with pure will and immortality, making the ether react according to its own will!
As long as the will is strong enough, even if they are thousands of miles apart, when the sublimate thinks, the distant free ether and natural source energy will react, and follow the sublimate's will and turn into thunder, flames, wind, rain and frost!
Even...a hint of sword intent can turn it into a natural disaster!

Cang Xing, who was proficient in psychic powers, felt it even more deeply. This fifth-level powerhouse who had secretly joined forces with Ian but did not directly join forces sensed a more obvious characteristic from Ian's power.

——Mindfulness exists in people, and if will fills the heaven and earth, it is everywhere!
Ether transcends time and space and follows the will. No matter far or near, no matter morning or evening, as long as it is sensed, it will be hit by the sword!

This is the characteristic of the Star God...the ability to transcend time and space, exceed the speed of light, and operate things in other spaces at the speed of light from several light years away!

[This is the virtual realm. The essence of the virtual realm that transcends time and space is derived from 'will'! ] Cang Xing was a little stunned: [The source matter turns into matter, and the spiritual energy turns into virtual realm. When the source matter and spiritual energy merge into one and turn into ether, the matter and virtual realm will also turn into the head and tail, turning into 'ring'! 】

Just like the reincarnation of fire, as long as there is a strong enough will, the ring is reincarnation, and the flame will never go out!
[No wonder, no wonder Ian said that the virtual realm machine god is the path our souls should take. Our souls should create a domain and create their own subspace, small virtual realm]

[And the material world should be like Axel, creating a 'kingdom' of the material world! 】

[Only when the realm and the virtual realm are combined can a 'pure ether' like the light realm be created - just like Ian, who created the Heart of Terra and the Immovable City. Only when the two are united by the light element furnace can they be created. The prototype of the 'Star God' appeared! 】

At this moment, Cangxing finally understood what Ian meant by what he said to her in the New World.

——Human beings have long held the key to becoming the sixth energy level, but everyone is fighting for themselves and is their own king, so no one can unify the key and open that door.

——Ian Silver Peak is the door, the key, and the one who opens the door.His purpose is to open the door and let the light shine out.

Infinite energy is important, but in the final analysis, it is just a fusion of materials!Without the strong body of the material world as the foundation of the kingdom, and a soul strong enough to condense its own virtual realm, it would be impossible to step into the sixth energy level!

The fifth energy levels seem to be extremely powerful, but most of them only master two aspects of 'skill' and 'body', or 'energy'. The most powerful Axel only masters three. , they also don’t have a clear grasp of the mystery of the soul.

On the contrary, King Jhin, because of his natural talent and proximity to the light realm, has mastered the 'skill' and 'soul' and is able to create a different 'Reincarnation of Fire'.

This is because the virtual realm has become hazy due to the chaos of falling from the sky. If it is the virtual realm of the civilization of the previous era, and if the entire Terra is peaceful and unified, then the mystery of the entire virtual realm will naturally emerge.

This is also the reason why pre-epochal civilizations can naturally create virtual realm machine gods - because the Star God encourages the peaceful unification of all worlds and will guide all civilizations in this regard.

However, Cangxing is different... Just as Ian has the heart of Terra, Cangxing also has a 'dream world'!
She has achieved great success in the most difficult virtual realm, and has mastered the 'skill' and 'body'. She only needs to replenish her will and energy, and she can try it!
And Axel, if he really turns the whole world into the successor of Inaga II, and all living beings have the same will, and are transferred through his "Light Forged Kingdom", he may also be able to integrate all mankind and become a being in a certain sense. The 'Integration of Human Consciousness' or the 'God Emperor' is trying to reach the sixth energy level!

【This is the real 'eternal will'!This is the path after embarking on the path of arcana! 】

At this moment, Cangxing couldn't help but sigh: [Ian Yinfeng, you have really opened up a new path!A more perfect, more regular road! 】

——This is the 'fifth stage' of the arcane path!
Slightly lower than the sixth-level star god of the way of sublimation, but higher than the top seat of the fifth-level energy of the way of sublimation, the [Ladder to Heaven] where people can climb to the stars!
[Good sword! 】

At this moment, one of the four rays of light swept into space by Ian's sword, the silent silver-gray light revealed its true form.

A giant sword as huge as a mountain appeared out of thin air, colliding with Ian's sword intent and stabilizing his posture.

It is the [Master of Juyue Town, Spirit Forging Craftsman], Yanjiang, Zheng Yinchuan!

Unlike other friendly neutral fifth-level players who could sense Ian's will just from the gentle breeze and drizzle, the spirit blacksmith felt the power of the sword to be unparalleled. It was not so much stabbing, slashing, chopping, or chopping. It's said to be crushing and smashing, pressing and hitting!

An unstoppable and powerful sword flow mixed with the planet's atmosphere, cut through time and space, and condensed into a giant sword of heaven and earth. In order to hide his identity, he was unable to use his full strength and smashed him out of Terra, causing him some minor injuries.

With one move, he defeated many with one, and even injured the veteran fifth level... The combination of Black Sun and Fudo Castle back then were not so fierce and crazy!
Ian's sword strike after falling into the Star God state simply put the word unstoppable on his face, shocking everyone who thought he would be weak after falling into the Star God state.

"Zheng·Yinchuan..."

Slowly sheathing his sword, Ian raised his head and calmly communicated with the other party: "I have no enmity with you, why did you attack me?"

"With such behavior, can you still be called the 'Lord of the Town' who protects Terra?"

In fact, he already knew the reason - there were too many Ians, and many of them went to Yanjiang. He could tell at a glance what was in the mind of Zheng Yinchuan, an irascible but heroic, outspoken and protective old man.

[It was indeed my fault to attack you] Sure enough, Zheng Yinchuan simply admitted his mistake, but he did not have any regrets: [Because I think what you did is unfair to us in Yanjiang]

[Perpetual Motion Declaration, we need to rely on population, and our population in Yanjiang is already sparse. Obviously the land is vast and there are many strong people. They have also made many achievements in protecting Terra, and even lost a large number of people in order to prevent the spread of apocalyptic disasters. , but the voting rights are not as good as Guntregum and the Nine Cold Alliance]

[How can this kind of voting method be said to be fair? 】

Saying this, Zheng Yinchuan was really unwilling: [Not to mention, you, Ian Yinfeng, took advantage of everyone's focus on voting to try to advance to the sixth level... everyone was deceived by you!A complete perpetual motion machine is not a necessary condition for advancing to the sixth level, but you deliberately unified the two when you declared the perpetual motion machine]

[If I know that the sixth energy level does not require a complete perpetual motion machine, why would I waste so much energy thinking about the future! 】

[But I was indeed wrong] The indignation in his words suddenly disappeared, and Zheng Yinchuan's tone became indifferent and serious: [You did restore the Dragon Island seal for all living beings in Terra just now, I shouldn't take advantage of this moment to attack you]

[I accept your sword as a matter of course]

"There is no fairness in this world." Ian nodded slightly. Sure enough, Zheng Yinchuan felt that Yanjiang would definitely lose in the next voting for perpetual motion machines. He felt aggrieved and helpless, and saw Ian trying to advance to the sixth level. , so I want to try the last chance, that is, before Ian returns to the sixth energy level and the other fifth energy levels find a way to achieve the sixth energy level, he is the first to enter the sixth energy level, and then obtain the power of all sentient beings on Terra through power. Vote and get a perpetual motion machine.

This is Yanjiang's only chance. He dares to think and do it, which is completely within Ian's expectation.

Therefore, Ian asked: "But why don't you consider 'alliance'?"

"A perpetual motion machine is a perpetual motion machine. It is an infinite source of energy. It cannot only be used by one person. As long as you are the first to negotiate the distribution and sign a covenant and obligations... an alliance is obviously better than fighting alone, right?"

[...] Zheng Yinchuan was stunned for a moment, and then became furious: [You misled us again!When you declared the perpetual motion machine, you said it was like you can only fight on your own! 】

[Damn it, I asked you why you are looking for allies everywhere. Is there really such a thing as an alliance? ! 】

Ha, you didn’t ask.Ian thought so.In fact, except for honest people like Zheng Yinchuan, the four orthodox sects have already realized this. However, the four orthodox sects are relatively isolated to begin with, so they have not spread.

"With a true perpetual motion machine, you can try to advance to the sixth level countless times."

After thinking about it, Ian still revealed the information he knew, and spread it throughout the world with the power of his sword: "Like the light element furnace, or other large-scale ether furnace cores, subperpetual motion machines, only You can use it once, and then you will be banned.”

"This is the 'shortcut' left by the Star God. If you can seize this opportunity, you can naturally become the sixth level. But if you cannot seize this opportunity, you still have to go back and follow the right path."

"I can no longer take shortcuts." Ian smiled calmly and said, "And you still have a chance."

Ian does not intend to pursue these four fifth-level experts who intend to attack him - someone will definitely take action, because the perpetual motion machine and the sixth level represent infinite possibilities and the power to realize dreams. Even if it saves the world, it's useless, not to mention that most people don't know the end beyond the cradle, and they don't feel it deeply.

Zheng Yinchuan and others are willing to take action, which is actually a big favor for Ian, allowing Ian to show his power in a logical way, and also reveal the possibility of 'alliance'.

In this way, the power of the sixth level is no longer an imagination.

Those strong people who originally had doubts will understand that all this can be achieved and their dreams can be realized.

Just like the information that Ian sensed from the reactions of the world's strongest men to his 'sword' at this moment.

[Perpetual motion machine, the sixth energy level...can actually reach it and achieve it...]

In the vast sea, a will fell into deep thought.

[To actually have such a huge power, move the stars, and once again strengthen the seal of Dragon Island...]

In the crystal blue hole, the ancient Dragon King murmured in a low voice: [Then even the Prisoner of Thousand Stars can be completely solved? 】

[In this case... if it is said that only half a step of Star God has such a powerful power]

On the distant cliff in the south, a couple looked at each other with endless joy and nostalgia in their eyes: [So, is it possible to resurrect people? 】

The turbulent wills are not only the wills of the strong, but also the wills of people, whether they are humans or monsters, the wills of all intelligent life forms are in the ether, wandering in the ocean of source matter and spiritual energy, giving rise to thousands of thoughts .

【In this case】

[So, is it possible to realize the Kingdom of Heaven on earth? 】

[Then, it is possible to create a new continent to host our clan, right? 】

[If everything is true, this power can shake the world like the Ian Silver Peak, and if it can be maintained for a long time, it may really be able to create a ring, create a kingdom of heaven, and allow thousands of stars to thrive]

[Even calling back the departed souls, rebuilding the giant structure that the Star God intended to build, and recreating the civilizations that should have lived in harmony...]

[Yes, it can be done, right? 】

It can be done.

Ian didn't respond, but he thought to himself.

No matter what the wish is, no matter what the future is, as long as there is a perpetual motion machine and a sixth energy level, it can always be created.

Therefore, the desire in people's hearts...the ambitions, desires and wishes will become stronger.

In this way, it will also give him more time to search for the mystery of the depths of the ether and the true nature of the end!
[Is this all right? 】

After Ian sheathed his sword, both the True Flame Dragon King and the Hong Chao Dragon King stepped forward and stood guard on both sides of the young man: [After this battle, they most likely did not dare to act rashly and invaded the Silver Peak Territory at will... But the other three If the five energy levels cannot find a way forward, they will always want to get the answer in your hands]

[For them, the answer may be more important than life, you should pay attention to their attacks]

[I will stay] The Star-Suppressing Dragon King stands in front of Yinfeng Castle. Once he is made of gold and silver and does not move, he really looks like a statue made of gold and silver: [Don't refuse, Ian, you have strengthened the seal of Dragon Island. , at least it will not have errors within a few decades, and it does not take much time to go to Dragon Island from Terra]

"Then it's up to you." Ian nodded slightly. In fact, he never thought of refusing. The dragon kings always thought he was very polite, but in fact he was never polite.

Then, Ian looked around at the friends around him. He smiled and nodded, and his voice gradually became ethereal and distant, as if falling from the sky: [Then, I will take the first step]

Saying this, he stepped towards his friends: [However, before that, I have a gift I want to give you]

【Please be sure to accept it】

……

Terra, Empire, Grand Duchy of Nanling.

Port Harrison, a gathering place for the White people.

cemetery.

A short but stocky old man walks on the road to the cemetery.

Slender raindrops are flying in the gloomy sky, falling on people's shoulders and then disappearing. It takes a long time to soak in to give people a 'moist' feeling.

Elder Puder walked for a while, and then slowly stopped at the side of the cemetery, in front of a seemingly ordinary grave.

"Ernesto, and Evelin." He stared at the simple tombstone and couldn't help but murmured: "Your children... are really powerful to a point that even I can't imagine."

"I thought he was the hope for the family's revival and could lead us back to the imperial capital...but who knows?"

"He is His Majesty's back-up man, a disciple of the First Knight. He not only leads us back to glory, but even, even..."

He even became a king himself.

Slightly lowering his gaze, Pude Chehalolwo, or in other words, Pude Silver Peak.

The last great elder of the Yinfeng family and the lifelong honorary elder couldn't help but sigh, with a tone of nostalgia and joy: "My parents have passed away many years ago. I never miss that family. I only act and fight because of my mother's wishes. But even so , I have spent my whole life just mediocre and without much achievement."

"You children, who should have had more hope and future, fell one by one in front of my eyes. The rise and fall of a family always depends on several generations. You have done everything you can, and your children have also completed the rejuvenation of the family. great wish."

"It's just... I'm just wondering, did that child... have foreseen today?"

A prophet is a strange thing.

Without the prophet's prophecy, many people would be confused about where they should go in the future. But with the prophet's prophecy, whether they are willing to admit it or not, they will find a way - either they will act in accordance with the prophecy, or they will not Go against prophecy.

None of them were confused.

But in the same way, precisely because neither the prophet nor the believers of the prophet are confused, onlookers will wonder, even fear...fear whether this firmness and all the conditions for completing the prophecy have been predetermined in advance.

It is an irreplaceable 'fate'.

Humans are such a weirder thing.

When there is no way, they look for a way.

After finding a path, they search for reason and meaning.

After having reason and meaning, they began to care about whether all this came from their own free consciousness - whether they were walking on their own path according to their own will, not because of other people's influence, prediction, or a kind of influence. Fate.

If it is proved to be fate, they will be decadent, angry, and miserable.

If proven otherwise, they will be confident, brave, and calm.

Of course, some people become confident and calm after being proved to be their fate.People are just so weird.

They always wonder.

But Elder Pu De is different.

After spending so long with the most powerful prophet in the world, the old man had a vague feeling...

The prophet may not just predict the 'future'.

He also determines his 'past'.

Ian Silverpeak.Has this child, who has been very assertive since childhood, sacrificed many people for the future he saw and followed his 'destiny'?
Not just those in the present and future, but what about those in the past?
After all, everyone in Terra knows that... a happy family and an ordinary life cannot activate psychic powers.

Obviously knowing that this idea is extremely stupid and illogical, Elder Puder can't help but think like this.

Not to be harsh on Ian, but sad.

If all of this is true, then after foreseeing all of this, Ian, who still has no choice but to make this choice, has foreseen what a huge disaster, and what kind of huge fate he has to fight against ?

Elder Puder didn't know, he just turned his head and looked at an unmarked grave on the other side of Ian's parents' tombstones.

The body buried in the grave was once his idol and Ian's teacher.

"He wants to create a new era, he wants to save the world, and what he wants to do... is a great deed that no king in the past could have imagined."

"Does he still remember you?" Elder Pude shook his head slightly and prepared to turn around and leave.

His lifespan is coming soon. Even if Yinfeng possesses the so-called 'artificial underworld' that can make his soul live forever, his body... still needs to find a cemetery to bury it.

That might also be a new beginning.

However, the moment Elder Puder turned around, he saw a figure standing side by side with him in front of the tombstone.

[They will always be my parents and my teachers]

Ian, who was glowing faintly and was just a shadow, was made of drizzle. He stared at the tombstone in front of him, then turned his head and looked at Elder Puder: [And elder, you will always be my family]

[Just because I want to open up the future, I will never forget the past]

"..."

Elder Pude was stunned in place. After a long time, he slowly shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "It's just the random thoughts of some old people."

[It’s not completely random. The future determines the past. Maybe it’s not a lie.]

Ian chuckled and said, his face gradually becoming serious: [And I have indeed done many evil things, many sacrifices... This is the 'original sin' I bear] [It's just that I believe that if I can go far enough, then Maybe, I can undo these 'mistakes'.Not only the mistakes in this universe’s time and space, but also the mistakes in more distant time and space can be undone]

[Elder, I always look into the distance]

"I see."

The old man nodded slightly: "You are always like this... I heard that a perpetual motion machine can resurrect anyone you want. Is this true or false?"

"You know, although our kind of place is no longer a rural place, the rumors about things like perpetual motion machines are always very outrageous."

[Of course you can] And Ian's answer is unequivocal and extremely powerful: [If it is just a perpetual motion machine, it may not be possible, but if it is the sixth energy level, it has the ability to connect the large ether circulation and browse all the information in the past and future. It is not difficult to resurrect a person】

[As long as you are strong enough and go far enough, looking back, you will eventually have a chance to recover from the hardships and regrets along the way]

[Only by walking in place will you never reach the reality you want to reach]

With that said, Ian took out a bone from his arms.

A piece of pure white crystal is not so much bone as it is some kind of white jade, some kind of solid metal mineral with crystal-like texture.

"This is……"

Elder Puder was a little surprised. He took the bone in a daze, raised his head, and looked at Ian in confusion.

The human figure in the rain and mist smiled and said: [This is my bone]

[Elder, bury me with them]

"Is this... why? Ian, what are you doing?" The old man raised his head in confusion. His hunch told him that Ian's unusual behavior represented a more dangerous omen - you know, Ian Well, even though I tried to advance to the sixth level and become such a giant of light, I didn't come to the cemetery to say goodbye to the bones of my parents and teachers!
But when Elder Puder looked up, he saw Ian's phantom slowly dissipating: [As you think, Elder, I am going to do something that I am not sure about either]

【so now.This perishable, immortal, Ian who loves his family and accompanies you is here]

[My bones will protect this place, protect you, and be with you]

He spoke his last words before the apparition dissipated.

[At this point, I will never leave you again]

At the same time, the top of Silver Peak.

"No, no, no, this is too strange..."

Adlbert looked at the 'heart' in his hand with a complicated expression - it was not so much a heart as a power furnace made of blood thunder and hot lava: "Ian, although I do accept your I have entrusted you with keeping your heart, but it’s not necessary this time, right?”

"This is no longer your heart, but your power furnace..."

[The material body has no meaning to me anymore. If I want to, take some time and create as many as I can]

And Ian shook his head slightly: [I want to dive completely into the deepest part of the etheric sea to find the secrets under the circulation. If the body is an ark that carries the soul through the disaster, then the ark of my body has already reached its destination]

[In this case, it is better to serve as a beacon to guide my power... If you are in danger or have an accident, you can call me, and my power will come and be with you]

"Do not."

Isengard on the side also said with an expression that was difficult to explain: "I think it's not that Adlbert doesn't understand your purpose, but this shape... is a bit too curious."

What Isengard held in his hand was a 'skull' - to be honest, when Ian handed the skull out, he blinked, rubbed it, and then continued to blink, repeating it twice before confirming that it was Ian's skull.

To be honest, it was really hard for him to accept it, especially since Ian was now hazy, with no fluctuations in his body as if made of light. It also made Ethan unable to feel that the skull in his hand was real, and it hardly looked like it. As usual, I find everything Ian does to be meaningful and charming.

——This is really a miss.

[How should I put it...actually, for me, my body is still together]

Scratching his head, Ian found it difficult to explain this to his friends, but he still tried: [Ether is a power that transcends time and space, and although I have not become a star god and achieved a perfect ether body, I The body has already completed this ascension]

[The heart in your hands, the skull and the rib I placed in Harrison Port are all 'conceptualized' forces, which are power, will and guardianship respectively.Although they are separated from each other in space, as if I have been cut into pieces, in fact, on the etheric level, they are still in my 'body', and I can use these body parts to exert the power of my body at any time. 】

[Material time and space are meaningless to me. I can rely on my body to exert power beyond time and space]

Obviously, looking at the expressions on Ethan and Adebert's faces, it was quite difficult for them to accept this.

"I think it's pretty cool!"

And Xio happily placed a cyan gem - Ian's left eye to be precise - on his forehead, pretending to be the third eye: "Actually, it's the same as the dragon soul, no matter what How to change the prosthetic body and what time and space it is located in are essentially together with the essence of the dragon soul, so we can switch at will, divide at will, and merge at will."

"This is the nature of ether, it's normal."

"Hmm." Anfa carefully placed another cyan gem - no need to explain, the right eye - in the box for preservation.After doing all this, she breathed a sigh of relief: "This is a bit too advanced, I can't accept it... Although I am also a dragon blood, I am not a real dragon after all."

[Actually, we can’t accept it either.Can’t you just leave a dragon scale and a dragon claw as a support?】

The three dragon kings on the side also nodded in unison.Even the True Dragon Kings cannot accept this approach, it is a bit too open-minded.

"You are dragons, okay? Just take any dragon teeth, claws, and scales as a support. I am a human."

Ian turned his head angrily. Do you really think he didn't want to?
Leave the inherited treasure and respond to the call to take action when your friends, disciples, and relatives are in danger - it's so cool, it couldn't be cooler. Whether it's a dragon's tooth or claw, it's more suitable than a skull, eyes, heart, etc. More, it would be even more cool if it has dragon horns.

But who calls him a human being?Although the Glazed Emperor Dragon can be regarded as his clone, it is more of a part of Qingtong. It can be compared to one of Ian's arms as a whole, and it has to protect the entire New World. The beacon is not that simple.

[But this is actually part of my plan. 】

Ian sighed, and he explained seriously: [My body is also the best intermediary for the Heart of Terra. Xio brought my body to Dragon Island, Anfa took it to Canaan Moore, and the Heart of Terra The rate of diffusion will also increase. 】

[In this way, my inheritance will also spread. As there are more and more practitioners of the arcane path, I may be able to find more key information from the ether. 】

[Each part of me will carry information about arcane path practitioners in different areas. When I recycle it in the future, I may be able to take a step further. 】

This statement was relatively normal and convinced everyone.

"Are you going?"

At this time, everyone can understand Ian's determination - he separated his blood and bones to protect everyone. This not only explains Ian's feelings for everyone, but also explains Ian's determination to go far away. .

——Even so, he would give up his body and thoughts, and he would move forward.

Isengard watched Ian walk back to the Silver Peak Territory Castle step by step, and he followed behind his friend: "When will you be back?"

[I don't know] Ian opened the door and walked towards the 'Central Throne' in his lord's mansion, which is used to control the Heart of Terra: [Maybe soon, maybe a long time... I will definitely come back before the perpetual motion vote, but I’m not sure either]

[You know, Ethan.The reason why I issued the perpetual motion declaration is to buy time. This series of actions has bought enough time, and I have no way to predict what the future will be like.]

[So] He said calmly: [Just wait]

"……I understand."

The blond young man's movements stagnated slightly, and he nodded: "I will wait."

【I will come back too】

With that said, Ian sat on the throne: [Don't worry, it doesn't matter even if you lose my body]

At this moment, Nanling, Yinfeng Ling, and Xiahui City.

On top of Silver Peak.

The originally calm and clear sky suddenly showed abnormal distortions of time and space. Invisible ether circuits crisscrossed the sky, connecting the virtual world with reality.

The endless surging natural source and spiritual energy gathered together, vaguely turning into a clear rain around the Grand Duchy of Nanling. This rain drifted with the wind, seemingly scattered and chaotic, but in fact it was secretly orderly, with the silver sun rotating in the middle, Faintly forming a huge and magnificent 'circulation'.

This is……

Yours truly, Ian Silverpeak.

It transcends the mortal and immortal human body, but also loves relatives and friends and accompanies everyone.

【Because I will not really leave】

Isengard and others watched as Ian's figure gradually dissipated and turned into flying flakes of light, leaving only a smile: [Because my soul is always with you]

at the same time.

Or rather, some time ago.

The other side of Terra.

Junling Castle.

Northwest of Terra, a land surrounded by mountains, and the Banville Plateau to the left of the Holy Mountain. Under the vast sky, resources are scarce and beasts are peeping.

The harsh living environment has made hope a necessary but expensive thing in Junling Castle, a 'necessity' that is needed by everyone from top to bottom.

Pioneer space user, the eldest grandson of the former emperor, and now the crown prince of the Western Empire, Aina Setar is walking on the road to Junling Castle.

Although Junling Castle has been an old enemy of the empire for many years, in fact, Aina has never seen any large-scale conflict between Junling Castle and the Northern Legion of the Empire in his life.

There were of course private fights, misfires, duels between officers, or clashes of armors, etc. There were also confrontations between several legions. Even the floating city drove over and took a look around, but neither side ever really Start a war.

Even when the East and West empires were split, Junling Castle remained strangely calm, motionless and without any reaction.

This is very inappropriate.Aina thought so.All abnormal actions represent a deep meaning behind them, and all actions, whether abnormal or not, represent a true intention.

——Junling Castle actually no longer has such a big feud with the empire. The reason why the two sides are in confrontation and exercises is not only for fun, but also to cover up some more important 'cooperation' through such actions.

It can even be said that it is to cover up some more important 'changes'.

After all, he is the son of Carlos. No matter how innocent Aina is, as soon as he starts thinking, he will quickly find something wrong: "After all, what kind of country is Junling Castle? This country is hidden behind the mountains. …What has it become in the past few decades?”

"If Pioneer Space hadn't sent this mission, maybe I wouldn't have remembered it at all."

Thinking of this, Aina couldn't help but feel a little ashamed - although he didn't plan to return to the Western Empire to be his crown prince now, he still cared about the empire.

The empire's enemy intelligence was ignored by the empire's own people, and the pioneer space had to pay attention to it. It really made him, a fugitive prince, feel ashamed.

However, this time, his mission was not to 'detect the situation in Junling Castle'.

His pioneer space mission was simple.

[Send the 'mission target' to the Grand Duke of Junling Castle]

The mission target is a silver metal ingot, which is very tough, but has no characteristics other than that. At least with Aina's strength, there is nothing special about it.

There is no need to worry about being attacked or blocked. The Grand Duke of Junling Castle has already approved this operation. The reason why Aina was able to get this mission is not because of his identity, but because of the Sun Bird... it is really fast.

Even if it cannot enter complete actinization without carrying this 'extra thing', the Sun Bird is still the fastest.

A ray of light flashed intermittently, Aina shuttled between the mountains, and soon came to the door of Junling Castle.

Chongshan Gorge.

This is the only gap between two steep peaks, a dark canyon. The two peaks thousands of meters high are like a heavy door, quietly opening an undetectable gap. That gap is the Gorge of Chongshan. , is the only way for land troops to enter Junling Fort, and it is also the gate strictly guarded by Junling Fort.

Aina turned into a ray of light and passed through the twelve kilometers long Chongshan Gorge - no one stopped him along the way. The armors, artillery and various laser weapons were locked on Aina, but there was no one. Launch, warn or welcome.

There was no sound, everything was silent, which made Aina a little confused.

And passing through the Chongshan Gorge is the Military Formation City.As the name suggests, this is another military city built on the mountainside. It was originally an artillery position for Junling Fort to resist imperial invaders - the empire called itself a counter-insurgency force.In short, hundreds of years have passed, and although it is still a fortress, it is also open to trade. A wide avenue, like a white river, winds its way to this towering and solid city.

After passing through the Military Formation City, this pure white avenue will also pass through several cities, and then it can directly reach Junling Castle, which is the main entrance of the residence of the Grand Duke of Junling Castle.

Einar had read these descriptions from books, but when he actually set foot here, he did not feel excited or expected to be satisfied. On the contrary, Einar frowned when he stopped on the empty white avenue. He frowned, and a chilling doubt emerged in his heart.

——Why are there no pedestrians or vehicles?
——Pure White Avenue is the lifeline of Junling Castle and the main artery for the movement of materials. How could there be no cars or pedestrians in broad daylight?
The scenery in the mountains is both broad and narrow. If you stand high up, it will be like overlooking the mountains and being with the sky. It is naturally wide and far away. But if you fall into the mountains, you will naturally be surrounded by forests and it will be difficult to move.

Aina turned into light, sometimes flying over mountains and sometimes over forests. Everything he passed by flashed on both sides of him like lightning, allowing him to pass through several cities at the fastest speed.

But all this made Aina feel even more uneasy: those cities were still running, the furnaces were roaring, the factories were hot, and various machines were continuously producing all kinds of creations. Everything was just as the books said, Junling Castle Having acquired the craftsmanship of the dwarves and carrying forward the most extreme part of it, the average life span of workers working in Junling Castle cannot exceed 40 years. The entire city is a fiery furnace, and human life is the carbon fire that runs the furnace.

really.Black smoke towered into the sky, and the smoke created by various alchemical materials dispersed among the mountains, turning the originally lush mountains into dry and colorful "five-color peaks". Chemical wastewater flowing in the soil soaked into the core territory of Junling Castle , if you want to obtain pure water, you need to go deep into the dark mountains or purify it with sea water.

But even so...

"There should be some living people?!"

The city is beautiful and the factories are towering. No matter how hard the Junling Castle squeezes humans, their artistic level is definitely not low - the imperial people despise that this is because the brains of the Junling Castle people have been alienated by poisonous gas, so they have so many weird inspirations, but However, Aina can see from the numerous towers in the city and the exquisite and complex reliefs on the building surfaces that they are definitely creations that express the magnificent beauty in the human heart.

Although Aina only has the third energy level, his eyesight is still very good. Even if he skips factory cities, he can still notice very well that there are no pedestrians in those rock cities, only huge steel buildings. The buildings are like man-made mountains, slowly crawling through the city.

No.There are still people.

Occasionally, Aina could see one or two figures walking behind the thick anti-haze glass in factories and residential areas... But this only aroused greater doubts.

Because he noticed that many single-family houses have been 'enclosed'.

All the doors in the entire house were sealed and fixed with some kind of steel structure. No one could enter or get out.

Like graves.

The entire city is a huge cemetery.

"What exactly happened?"

With Aina's curiosity enough to become the first user of the Pioneer Space, he now wants to enter the city of Junling Castle to see what all this is about, but he has a mission after all.

Therefore, with great confusion, Aina arrived at the 'Junling Castle' as quickly as possible.

As the name suggests, Junling Castle is the castle where the Grand Duke of Junling Castle lives. It is not majestic, but very ordinary. It is just an ordinary palace castle with a round vault and four towers. Its foundation is cast by black iron rock, like A hill.

It is very solid, and its shape is nothing special. It is just a little larger, about 200 meters high. For those wonder-level buildings on Terra, it is simply ordinary.

【Aina】

And when Aina arrived at the gate of Junling Castle, he still didn't see even a 'person' or a 'figure'.The whole city, the whole palaces and castles were deserted.

It was at this time that the voice of the Grand Duke of Junling Castle came from the depths of the castle: [I didn't expect you to be the messenger... I didn't expect that he really had evil intentions, or was this something you asked for? 】

[If it’s the latter, it’s really interesting]

"Bokaan Elster..." Aina repeated the name of the Grand Duke of Junling Castle in a low voice. He shook his head and said: "I delivered the things, but what is going on? Why is the whole Junling Castle... one……"

【okay】

Bokaon interrupted Aina's inquiry: [Your mission is completed, put your things at the door, and you can go back]

[Of course, if you want to know the answer to the question, you can also stay.]

[But don’t blame me for not reminding you, Aina... the answer may be a bit beyond your imagination]

If it had been ten years ago, Aina would have sneered confidently - what answer could exceed his expectations?As a member of the royal family of Setal, he knows more mysteries and truths than many ordinary people will encounter in a lifetime.

However, since Ian Silverfeng was born, he didn't dare to say that... This prophet has done more work than everyone in Terra combined in so many years!
Therefore, he frowned and put down the 'silver metal ingot' in his hand, preparing to turn around and leave to see what the situation was.

Then, Aina opened his eyes wide and stopped in shock.

The silver metal ingot suddenly trembled silently, decomposed, and then turned into countless raindrop-like particles. The particles were also rapidly decomposing, turning into silver dust that could not be seen clearly by the naked eye.

And these dusts rotate, spread, shrink, and finally condense into a clear human shape.

The silhouette of a young prophet that he was extremely familiar with!
'Ian Silver Peak' walked out of the silver metal dust. His figure was perfectly proportioned. The moment his body appeared, the lord uniform he wore most often also appeared at the same time.

Although it was completely simulated by a layer of vibrating metal dust, Aina seemed to see a real person...

No, not right.

Not real!

After a brief shock, Aina immediately realized something was wrong.

Because Ian Silverpeak is always smiling.Smile.chuckle.The corners of his mouth turned up slightly.Or sneer disdainfully or laugh sarcastically.His sincere and sincere expression also makes people feel friendly. It seems to be an instinctive charm that is deeply rooted in people's hearts. It is a perfect work of art that makes it difficult for people to take their eyes away from him at a glance. He is yearning for everything about him.

But this silver figure was calm and indifferent.

It was as cold as death, as steel, and as cold as a tomb.

An absolute chill.

'Ian Silverfeng' glanced at Aina, then stepped forward and opened the door.

【I am the Heart of Terra】

Stepping into the deep darkness, the light emitted by the silver human figure illuminated the depths of the Jungle Castle without any light source, causing the king on the brass throne to slowly raise his mottled head and crown: [Loading Ian ·Silver Peak Communication Module, Terra Heart Contact Device for Human-to-Human Communication, Humanoid Terminal]

[You can just think of me as Ian Silver Peak.Or in other words, his heir]

Ask for a monthly pass!
Junling Castle actually has a deleted branch, which is the Ellen family of Isengard's hometown. Isengard's father held a meeting with Junling Castle as an ambassador, and secretly ran away to make a deal with the Grand Duke of Junling Castle in the middle, and learned about the empire. There was a dead-hand plan about the Beast of Thousand Stars, and he obtained related secrets. This is also the reason why Yisen was able to stop the Beast of Thousand Stars from going rampant in other timelines.

However, the pace of this book is already very slow, and I feel like I don’t need to write it in such detail, so I just skipped it.
