Above The Sky-Chapter 1911 - 397: Triple True Forms, Edge of Perished Sun!
[So, if you want to create the future you desire, then you must defeat him]
[Prove... that you are the truer truth]
"I will."
Ian slowly stood up, gazing at the phantasm of the man before him: "I have one last question."
"Inega II... to you, the stars hold no sanctity, in this world, in this starfield, there are countless puzzles and mysteries to explore."
"Compared to me, you care more about the people’s welfare, theoretically speaking, instead of looking up at the sky, you’re more willing to gaze at the earth."
"Why do you wish to go above the sky?"
The phantasm was slightly taken aback.
He looked at Ian, somewhat puzzled and asked: [Isn’t the sky just there?]
[Looking up at the sky, wanting to go to it, why do you need a reason?]
[Moreover, the earth is the earth, the sky is the sky, why should I give up one of them?]
Indeed.
It is that simple.
It’s such a simple thing.
The young Prophet gazed at the emperor’s remnant, understanding that they were the same kind of people.
Equally greedy, eyeing both the bowl and the pot. Equally selfish, wanting to change the world for their own wishes. Equally pure, throughout they had only one goal.
Just as the teacher said back then... their greatest regret was perhaps not being born in the same era, hence they walked their paths alone, their mistakes irrevocable, ultimately only able to gaze at the future, waiting for the next generation, or even the next reincarnation.
But this time... they can finally join hands and fight this last battle.
"Lend me your strength."
The Pioneer Platform rumbled to life, within its soft buzzing, an endless green geometry expanded into a cloud, hovering behind Ian.
The successor said to the Pioneer: "Since you are the dead, the failed one, I’ll take your final legacy."
And the phantasm stood up as well, smiling, happily agreeing.
[As I wished]
The golden phantasm dissipated.
Countless golden spots merged with the Pioneer Platform, ultimately engraving a golden Pride Sun Mark within the platform.
It shone brilliantly, radiating an immortal glow.
Sensing the mark within the platform, Ian couldn’t help but sigh: "What Black Sun."
"There’s no darkness to be seen."
The next moment, the cloud-like Pioneer Platform began to converge, like the mighty flow of a great river, turning into a vortex, a funnel, finally at the end of the funnel, a gold-green eye formed and then embedded itself into Ian’s body.
Reality.
New Moon.
Ian suddenly pressed against his left eye, making Michael give a slight sideways glance.
Then, he saw Ian lower his hand.
The Left Eye of the Prophet transformed into a brilliant gold-green, revealing a force capable of shaking hearts and peering into souls.
"What is this?!"
Not only Michael, but even Axel was momentarily stunned, for from this eye, they sensed a familiar power, a striking eye color that left a profound impression...
And Ian was already using this power.
The immortality of Inega II couldn’t provide substantial power, but he could grant Ian a part of his Spirit Energy—that which is named ’Exploring Veins’ or ’Eye of Seeking’, able to search for ’relevant possibilities’ targeting an event. Like chain quests in a game, as long as Inega II activated his Spirit Energy towards something, he could discover many associated ’chains’.
Following these chains, Inega II could find many ancient ruins and heritage from previous eras, whether it was the Silver Chip or the South Sea Great Labyrinth, they were all spoils Inega II found using his Spirit Energy.
And now, Ian opened his eyes, staring directly at the Celestial Flaming Phoenix before him.
At this point, even the Foresight View found it hard to clearly envision the many colors on Axel’s body, apart from the overly dazzling gold shining like the sun, the red representing ’omen’ and black representing ’calamity’ had vanished without a trace.
Because this step, no other Ian had reached. Maybe Axel had never succeeded before, or perhaps they had never reached this stage so early.
Now, at this precise moment, Ian was not conforming to reincarnation.
He was creating a new possibility.
In the Eye of Seeking, dozens of lines of varying sizes emanated from Axel’s body... most were directed towards Terra, the thickest one pointing to the Imperial Capital.
It stands to reason, Axel’s overwhelming prowess now, able even to suppress the combined strength of Ian and Michael, is largely derived from the Imperial Capital’s planetary array; if not for Ian also seizing part of the Imperial Capital’s power, they might not have been able to contend with Axel for so long, perhaps already knocked down.
"As long as Yisen can use his authority to cut off the Imperial Capital’s support to Axel, defeating him wouldn’t be impossible."
Ian’s mind raced, quickly deducing each line’s source of power, though amidst many sources, one was most peculiar.
It didn’t point towards Terra but pointed far away... reaching deep into the distant dark space.
"Is that the line representing the Calamity of Light?"
The energy brought by the Calamity of Light undoubtedly greatly enhanced Axel and Michael, even Ian benefited significantly, it is extremely difficult to sever, whether the Galewind Dragon King can reach the Comet Cloud to seal the energy from the Cradle Fragments, near Terra’s orbit, they’d likely have to endure several months of Calamity of Light’s energy exposure.
