High Above

All illusions from the past dissipate.

Ian took a deep breath and laughed instead.

"So that's it, it's a material that condenses time and space."

He recalled the scene in his mind and slowly murmured to himself: "It is not a simple Bose-Einstein condensate, but a more complex space-time structure based on etheric space-time - formed with the dragon's heart core. With the ether field as the core, a self-circulating pure closed structure is formed in three-dimensional space and time, a pocket universe.”

"Light is like frozen water, condensing into ice in the black realm. If it is a complete Heavenly Hell, no matter how much light can be blocked, but if it is the same fragile place as the gap in Heavenly Hell, the light will be blocked. It will accumulate, and even a little impact will break the space-time condensation there, causing the light stored in it to burst out, forming a light disaster."

It has to be said that the technological level of the Star Gods is very high. Their processing of time and space has reached an incredible level. Three-dimensional space and time itself can become their building materials. No wonder they can create such an incredible cradle with a radius of five light years. universe-level buildings, and there are billions of them once built.

The essence of the Star Prison is ‘a wall made of condensed materials of time and space’, a ‘pocket universe’, and the next most important thing is the ‘key’.

If you want to open the Hell, in addition to the possible existence of the Star God's 'orthodox key', and the 'black hole impact' in the general sense, there is another option, which is to use magnetic monopoles for cutting.

A magnetic monopole is an elementary particle with only a single magnetic pole. Simply put, black holes and singularities are macroscopic manifestations of a single magnetic pole.

This is easy to explain.

Everyone played with magnets when they were children, right?

A magnet and some iron filings. If the distance between the two is relatively far, then the magnet cannot do anything to those iron filings. Just like planets that are far away from the black hole's event horizon and gravitational circle, they may rotate around the black hole, but they will not Being sucked into it.

However, if the iron filings come close to the magnetic attraction range of the magnet, the iron filings will 'suddenly' disappear and be attracted to the magnet.

This suction force is so strong and so fast that in many cases it is impossible to stop it, and the iron filings are sucked away in an instant.

Just like a black hole adsorbing matter that is too close to its own gravitational circle, those matter will completely disappear and fall towards the singularity.

It’s just that the gravitational field of a black hole is larger and more terrifying, and not even light can escape.

Most of the energy generated by the collision between the magnet and the iron filings is absorbed back by the magnetic field, and the overflowing energy is just like the Hawking radiation produced by the black hole.

A magnetic monopole with a huge mass and a small enough radius is almost a black hole singularity.

The space-time condensed matter wall can also simulate a black hole, like a piece of ice that can freeze light, the strongest material.

Singular substances like magnetic monopoles are the key to unlocking the black realm and the ‘condensed matter of space-time’.

"Imperial Capital."

Ian murmured to himself: "On Terra, among the currently known heritage from the pre-epoch, only the Imperial City has the conditions to create a 'magnetic monopole'... and the core of the dragon is the most complete 'etheric furnace heart' , through the semi-perpetual motion effect of the ether furnace core, the energy in the surrounding space and time can be extracted to create 'space-time condensed matter' matter."

"Is this destiny? Everything intersects here. I am the Immovable Castle, I have the Dragon's Heart Core, I am the successor of Inaga and Hilliard, and I am recognized by the Imperial Capital..."

"That's why Axel doesn't want to let Fudo City get close to the Imperial Capital. He must know something and is unwilling to let me use the Imperial Capital like this. He has his own plan."

"No."

At this moment, Ian closed his eyes and said to himself in a deep voice: "This is not fate."

"It's my choice."

The original Ian, how did he discover these secrets? Maybe he didn't discover it, maybe he just became stronger, and as a prophet, he knew some secrets on Terra, but he was unable to fully explore them throughout his life.

Perhaps out of curiosity, perhaps out of reluctance, he threw all his thoughts, memories and experiences to his next self.

——It doesn’t matter if it’s not me or it’s me, no matter what, let’s discover the truth behind this world (Terra)!

——What an interesting, complex and amazing world. I believe that if it were me (Ian), I would definitely move forward.

This is indeed the case.

As generations of Ian explored Terra, the memories and secrets in their minds began to multiply. They were shocked to discover that this damn and interesting world contained shocking and complex secrets, which were not just planets. , and more about the starry sky.

So they raised their heads and looked toward the sky.

Seek further and greater mysteries.

But it can no longer be passed on - there are limits to ability, and there is only so much information that can be passed on. They must streamline the most important information and find the most useful secrets.

But this is not enough.

There are so many secrets on Terra that just making them into documents and telling them about the past one by one, as memories that can be verified, has exceeded the limit of transmission.

Moreover, the memory transmitted in this way is not stable. It may be forgotten, it may be omitted, and it may lose its curiosity, preventing the awakening of the 'prophet'.

Therefore, there is today's streamlined personality, prophetic ability, and retrospective vision.

With these 'tools', Ian can obtain 'clues' and 'information' that far exceed the transmission limit.

It not only ensures curiosity and awakens the vision of prediction, but also allows you to experience many clues personally to ensure the purity of your original intention.

Just like before.

It is absolutely impossible to rely solely on Ian himself to obtain the secrets of the Star Prison and the images left by the Dragon of Terra during this time period.

However, with Elan's retrospective vision, Ian can know that decades ago, Inaga II and Hilliard opened the Hell and took away the inherited 'information'.

Moreover, relying on the emotions in this message, he activated his "retrospective vision", and then saw the image left by the Dragon of Terra 1,600 years ago, and knew the nature of the Star Prison and the nature of the key to open it.

"As expected of me."

Ian sighed softly. He didn't think this was fate, it was inevitable, but it was the future he got by relying on himself.

"As long as I reach the fifth energy level and the Dragon Heart Core is complete, I can also create a 'space-time condensed matter' like the Dragon of Terra... Although the specific details are not clear, as long as I come here to learn more about it when the time comes, Just observe the 'miniature hell' here, and I can always learn it."

Ian does not doubt this. This is the confidence given to him by his astonishing wisdom and the gift of the Star God!

"Come over and get the remaining inheritance later."

Ian knows that Inaga II has taken away some of the most precious inheritances in Heavenly Hell, but the remaining inheritances definitely have their value - and with his current power, it is absolutely difficult to do anything to the Black Realm. Leaving is the only option.

And he is not worried about others taking it away... This is something that can only be obtained by Sun Bird and Fudo Castle, by controlling the imperial capital to create magnetic monopoles.

Now, the Sun Bird still exists, but he is the only one in Fudo Castle.

Since it was impossible to gain more, Ian took Elan back to Andor.

In response, the management staff who had been observing the restricted area also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let me tell you, what can two little dragons that have just been born do?"

One said with a smile: "I guess it's just to feel the closeness of the breath. Basically all dragon-type monsters do this instinctively."

"Yeah." Another shrugged: "But they are so big and can grow so well... It seems that the breeder who raised them is very capable."

Andor didn't know that he had become an excellent breeder in the eyes of others. He just waited calmly for the return of Ian and Ellan.

In the distance, other restless monsters had calmed down, while he was thinking about his fate.

——What exactly am I going to do in the future?

For some reason, the elf pirate captain began to think about the future.

He didn't originally think about the future, because it was a luxury that only those with room for choice could have.

As a pirate captain, he can only accept tasks, rob merchant ships, and fish for a living. If he can't do it, he will die. If he can do it, he can just muddle along, unless he suddenly robs a large merchant ship or gets some overseas exotic. Bao, otherwise, he will only be a pirate for the rest of his life, and eventually die in the wind and waves or the encirclement and suppression of the Elf Navy.

After the mission failed, Andor kept thinking about when he would be silenced.

Whether it's the Ellen family, Master Gosei, or anyone else, anyone can kill him without any trouble.

After all, he was a captured pirate, an elf, a man who had learned a secret.

But he doesn't want to die.

The reason why he obeyed Ian's words and didn't reveal the secret was simply because Andor didn't want to die.

No matter what, as long as you live, there is a future. Regardless of whether there is happiness or not in the future, whether it is all pain, he wants to live.

But just now, he heard Ian's plans for his future.

How ridiculous. He himself had never thought about what he would do in the future. It was better to die than to live. But his original enemy, a young man he once wanted to deal with and kill, was thinking about something for him. road.

Writing and publishing? Back home? Breeding monsters? Heading to Xiahui Ling?

A stable life, a career, living without worries, and planning the future...

he……

Is it worthy?

Andor lowered his eyes and thought, a pirate actually became like a philosopher when it comes to life and the future - but he couldn't get the answer, there were too many questions that were destined to have no answers.

However, even if there was no answer, Andor couldn't help but laugh when he saw the returning shadows of Ian and Elan.

When he noticed that he was smiling, the pirate captain finally understood...

Understand what hope is.

What is yearning?

"Why, Andor, are you smiling so happily?"

Back on the shore, Ian looked at the elf captain curiously and said, "I thought you were quite bored before, but I didn't expect you could be happy in private."

"It's natural to look sad when you have no choice."

Andor laughed and said: "With the boss, no matter who you are, you will be happy, right?"

Andor told Elan that they often communicated when Elan possessed the crystal dragon, and they were considered acquaintances and friends, and the little boy nodded seriously: "Yes, yes!"

"He's quite good at flattering."

Ian clicked his tongue and said with a smile: "I have finished my work here, and I will go back next. You continue to take Elan to exercise well, and tell me if you have anything."

"That's right." As if he thought of something, Ian told Andor: "In about a week, I will ask Master Gosei's channel to send you a potion... That potion is a specially made 'artificial soul'. "

"After the injection, the soul will be gradually born in about half a month. You are originally a sublimator and have a soul foundation. This artificial soul can help you accelerate, and it is specially made, allowing me to communicate directly with you. Make a connection.”

"By the time."

The baby dragon raised its tail and pointed to the sky: "If something big happens in the Atlan breeding ground and you are in danger, just call my name."

By virtue of its connection with the crystallized dragon body, Ian's deified soul can descend into this body at will.

And his fairy essence can also be incorporeal. After a period of time, he can travel through the virtual realm and become one with his soul, and then descend to the Atlan breeding ground.

This is basically equivalent to summoning his "third-level fairy body" through the "summoning ritual".

After realizing the essence of this, Ian became even more interested in the 'divine power transmission technology' in the hands of the eldest prince Carlos - if there was a divine power transmission technology, Ian wouldn't even need to take on the body of a fairy and could possess Andor. On his body, a 'divine possessor' will directly appear on his body to strengthen his strength and fight on his behalf!

All I can say is that there are a lot of good things on Terra, but unfortunately the ones everyone uses are relatively crude, so it’s better to give them to him for free.

"Brother is leaving?"

Elan was also very happy today. He accompanied his brother in circles on the bottom of the sea and helped him do many important things.

Speaking of which, in the image he saw, the knight's aura was very familiar to him...

A bit like an uncle.

Sensing this emotion, Ian turned his head and looked at his brother.

"Well. I'm going back." Patting the back of Elan's dragon body with his tail, Ian pondered for a while, and then slowly said: "You are old enough, Elan. And I am also a prophet now, and I hope Liad's disciples... everyone already knows this."

"Maybe there are some things I can let you know."

"When I return to Nanling, I will tell you some of the truth about our family's past."

Elan never lived with his real uncle.

The one who took care of him and taught him how to read was Hilliard.

Ian felt that at this time, it was time to tell Ellan part of the truth...or even the whole truth.

His brother, his only relative, needed to know everything he should know.

"OK, all right!"

In response, Ellan nodded seriously: "I'm looking forward to it!"

"Well, Elan. Exercise well. Remember to exercise your spiritual power more. Using it on the dragon body consumes the physical strength of the dragon body, which is much richer than your own physical strength..."

Saying this, the green little dragon's body slowly coiled up, and the light in the dragon's eyes gradually dimmed: "Becoming stronger, becoming able to control one's own destiny..."

"Um."

Although he didn't fully understand the meaning of 'powerful' and 'controlling one's own destiny', Ellan nodded seriously: "I will work hard!"

The crystal dragon slowly closed its eyes.

On the airship, Ian slowly opened his eyes.

Once he was out of his body and possessed by his soul, he knew the secrets of a place thousands of miles away and solved a big doubt in his heart.

No wonder, the so-called soul can know the secrets of the world after leaving the body. It is indeed true. The soul and spiritual energy are tools used to discern the reality of the world.

During this process, neither the Lingzhi Academy nor the imperial officials dared to disturb.

"I'm really a big shot now."

Raising the 'Prophet's Scepter' in his hand, Ian stared at the silver psychic jewelry and couldn't help but laugh: "I am already a big shot."

"That way, there are a lot of things that can be done that can't be done."

Saying this to himself, Ian Yinfeng closed his eyes.

A few days later, the hero of the empire, Earl Yinfeng of Nanling, returned to his Nanling.

All the people cheered, waiting for the return of the prophet.
