Chapter 3989 - Tens of Thousands of Meters Tall
Tianming thought about his parents and their pursuers. "There must be another level above imperial-class worlds. In there, sky plunderers, archaionfiends, the Primordial God-Emperor, and other Primogenitors—including the Primordial God Race—must be related to each other in some way."
That was his best guess. The Sea of Aeternity was also independent from the Upper Star Ruin. A picture of the complicated and seemingly boundless world slowly formed in Tianming's mind.
"The question now is how a ruler of the Sea of Aeternity like you would have fallen to this extent," he said, eyes filled with doubt.
"It's related to the Order Relic in your body," Huang Qi said, gazing at him.
"What is it?" Tianming asked.
"It’s the core of the Sea of Aeternity, as well as the core of the laws that the world revolves around. Word is that it had consumed all of the universal essence and was the origin of a new set of universal laws. In fact, you can consider it a crystallization of the universe's will," she said.
"Whoa, it’s that amazing?!"
"Of course! If it wasn't important, I wouldn't have ended up like this because of it!" Huang Qi seemed rather melancholic at the thought of times long gone.
"So you attempted to fuse with it only to suffer blowback?"
"That... more or less sums it up. I was far too bold and forcefully attempted to take something I didn't quite understand, causing me to be weakened and enter a long period of slumber. Then the leader of the other undying aeternals attacked me and sealed me here. At that crucial moment, all I could do was take the Order Relic with me to the Lower Star Ruins and eventually hid inside the Ancestral World to protect it."
"That doesn't sound like what you told me back then."
"Forget what I said before!" She glared at him. "What's more important is that a miracle has arisen in your body. You managed to forge your own body into the Order Relic. Many things you don't expect will happen to you, so look forward to them.”
