Chapter 2182: Chapter 64: To Journey Toward Every Destination, as If It Were Love
An is the Child of Thousand Stars, but the Spark of Thousand Stars is already nearing extinction, and the ’Spark’ corresponding to the Star God has disappeared. As for the ’Body of Thousand Stars’ corresponding to the universe—now referred to as the ’Thousand-Star Beast’—has lost control, or rather.
It’s free.
And she, in her dreams, will gaze—gaze at her mother, her origin, which nurtured all Thousand-Star Beasts to be sealed.
Or rather, guide it to grow in the direction it desires.
Yanjiang Sanctuary, Blue Cave of the Meditation Sea, Huai Guang Holy Mountain.
This ’Triangle of Land’ encircling the Abyssal Sea is precisely where the Thousand-Star Beast crashed into Terra, creating the ’Great Void’. Beneath this land lies a giant subterranean cavity, which supports the entire Terra Continent, and the Thousand-Star Beast slumbers within.
Yanjiang Sanctuary.
At the place where the apocalyptic disaster once occurred, almost destroying Yanjiang, the seal of the world-destroying Seed God ’Carlin’s Flower’ and its derived demons remains, yet the scenery is extraordinarily beautiful. Upon seemingly blood-stained red earth, layers of smoky purple forests unfold, and the rising dawn in the sky brings endless radiance, illuminating the spaces between heaven and earth, forming a picturesque landscape.
Like a palette with intertwining colors, entering feels like stepping into a dream. If one doesn’t resist the whispering demons that constantly echo in the forest, they might indeed step into a dream.
The cult leader of the Retrospection Sect, an invisible soul spirit, stands in the center of the forest and radiance, slowly coagulating into a woman with ivory-white skin and black hair. Her forehead bears a crimson mark like blood, and her eyes are deep as the abyss and pitch-black.
[Surging Darkness Walker], the Myriad Souls Notary chooses to act in the form of a ’mother’, for she is about to seal another mother, not just a mother of a tribe or a star, but the Mother of Thousand Stars.
"Ready."
She raises her hand, countless aether flows down from the tower, the void coalescing into a giant pure white Ethereal Wedge, tens of thousands of meters long, and it can extend further into the depths of the planet at any time.
"Ian." Before the action begins, she asks the omnipresent aether: "I understand this mission, rather than sealing, is to let the ’Thousand-Star Beast’ activate again."
"The current Thousand-Star Beast is the remnants after several massive mutations—having withstood the majority of the Skyfall Spaceship collision, it is already fragmented. The upheavals of generations of Thousand Stars, rather than awakening, were instinctive self-repair due to overwhelming pain."
"And you plan to use the purest aether to repair the damage to the Thousand-Star Beast and enable it to ’restart’. Heh, just like old civilization systems—in case of unsolvable computer issues, just reinstall; reinstallation solves ninety percent of the problems."
"But then the problem arises."
Thus, speaking, the Myriad Souls Notary raised a concern: "If the Thousand-Star Beast reboots and doesn’t follow what you envisaged, becoming the foundation of the ’Tranquil Rim’, evolving along the aether you left to form the ’Sector Rings’?"
"After all, you are no longer the Prophet."
"The Prophet is merely the foreseer of destiny."
And Ian’s voice answers her: "Whereas I am the Master of Destiny. Notary, I understand your concerns, but the Thousand-Star Beast will not lose control."
"Because later, I will directly converse with the Thousand-Star Beast—if it agrees with my proposal, signs a contract, then it cannot go back on its word, and if it disagrees..."
——Then I will kill its freedom and create a consciousness to be its master.
Abyssal Sea·Crystalline Blue Cave.
[Chief of Myriad Spirits], the Guide of All Beings silently dives into the deepest part of the Blue Cave, the ancient residence of the Crystalline Dragon King.
Here, the magnetic forces of the entire planet once gathered, interfering with and suppressing the powers of the Thousand-Star Beast deep in the sea, where a black tide of flesh and blood might swell from the deepest cavity of the Blue Cave at any moment.
Yet the guide, who appears completely mundane like an ordinary human, now slowly crystallizes bit by bit, and soon he transforms into a Crystal Dragon, starts to model the powers of the Crystalline Dragon King of the past, guiding planetary power to suppress this place.

He also summons the aether and condenses a wedge, speaking with Ian: "What makes you think you have the right to kill it, Ian? I’m not opposed to you, just wanting to understand your thoughts."
"Because I am shaped by this world."
And Ian answers with a humor-laced tone: "I was born on Terra, thus becoming a Terra People. Aren’t Terra People all like this?"
"We kill each other, seize from each other, create more tears just to stop tears... And to stop all tears, I must oppose this world."
"Friend, ’kill’ is just a human term—the Thousand-Star Beast possesses infinite life modes, the omnipotent aether converter; is its life and death really something we humans can fathom?"
"What I mean by killing it, perhaps it’s like giving someone a thrashing, making them change their mind."
Embrace Light, Holy Mountain.
[Pope Huai Guang], ’Embrace and Light’, the soaring swarm slowly moves, causing the whole holy mountain to slightly shake.
No need for Ian’s assistance, the entire holy mountain, the Huai Guang Swarm itself is the wedge, the seal opposing Thousand Stars.
