"No one can reach the True Divinity Realm anymore?" Lynne repeated with a frown.
'Yes, child. In the billions of years since the end of the primordial era, I've seen countless talented children reach the peak of the Celestial Realm. So had even taken half a step further, but never the full step into True Divinity.'
'In the end, their limited lifespans expired like the final embers of dying stars. They all left the world with regret,' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress said with a sigh.
Lynne was reminded of her master's incredible age after listening to her master's words. Peak Celestial Emperors and Half-step True Divinities were all children in her master's eyes.
She wryly smiled as she took in that information.
Suddenly, Lynne thought of sothing.
Her master has seen many the rise and fall of many geniuses after the primordial era. That ans that her master has awakened consciousness in her other few soul fragnts for a long ti.
"Master, you said that you are not interested in taking over my body," Lynne ntioned.
"However, that can't be the case for every True Divinity that awakened their divine consciousness, right? Wouldn't several True Divinities have gathered their scattered soul fragnts and revived themselves by now? And if they did, wouldn't their strength be back in the True Divinity Realm?"
'It's not that simple, child,' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress replied.
'You should already know that True Divinities' divine soul shattered into countless parts in the Great War. Furthermore, these scattered soul fragnts have beco a part of other souls in this present era.'
'Unless the mortal souls could tap into the laws and stir the soul fragnts of True Divinities awake, the True Divinities would not be aware of their soul fragnts' locations. Furthermore, this is under the assumption that these True Divinities' souls weren't split into so many soul fragnts that they lost their ability to think.'
'But let's say there was a lucky True Divinity with only three soul fragnts. And all three soul fragnts had been awakened by their hosts before the True Divinity seized their bodies. Even in that case, it's very unlikely for all three soul fragnts to be found in the sa galaxy.'
"But since the True Divinity is aware of its soul fragnts' locations. Can't the True Divinity send its incarnations out to other galaxies to unite with its other soul fragnts?" Lynne wondered.
However, the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress chuckled at Lynne's na?ve question.
'Child, the biggest hurdle for mortals in the present era is traveling between galaxies. An unbound Celestial Emperor only has a lifespan of 100-thousand years, and a Half-step True Divinity's lifespan can be anywhere between 500-thousand to 10-million years.'
'Let's look at the current Hyperion Galaxy we are situated. Even if we manage to leave God's Graveyard and enter the Divine Realm, the Divine Regions outside are already so vast. Without taking the ancient spatial arrays, it would take ten-thousand light years to travel between the Divine Regions. And that is only between the Divine Regions.'
'If we want to travel to the closest host galaxy neighboring our Hyperion Galaxy, it is expected to take around 3-million light-years. That's not a voyage any mortal can take on, let alone willing to undertake. Just the solitude of the journey alone would drive them crazy.'
'However, that's not the most critical point. Absolute voids exist in the gaps between galaxies. Even if you are a Half-step True Divinity who can travel at tenfold the speed of light, you will run out of celestial energy. You won't get far from the Hyperion Galaxy before starving to death,' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress stated.
"You can still starve to death at the Celestial Emperor Realm, Master? No, more importantly, you've been outside of this 'God's Graveyard' before, Master?" Lynne asked with surprise.
'More than once,' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress answered.
'Master has even tried to leave the Hyperion Galaxy with Master's previous hosts before. However, it's no use. A mortal is still a mortal in the end. Your source of sustenance simply changes from food to celestial energy after reaching the Celestial Realm.'
'Once you leave a certain distance from the Hyperion Galaxy, there will be no celestial energy to refine in the void. Thus, it is still a death zone for anyone below True Divinity. And once the host body of an awakened soul fragnt dies, the True Divinity's soul fragnt returns to dormancy in its next host back in its ho galaxy.'
'This is like Primal Chaos's self-defense chanism preventing True Divinities from ever trying to revive themselves and bring further devastation upon Primal Chaos. The primordial era of gods and devils is long over, child. You can be assured of that,' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress stated.
It was also because of the impossibility of reaching the next galaxy that the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress decisively gave up hopes of ever reviving.
Astonishnt was written all over Lynne's face. However, there was one thing she didn't understand.
"How did True Divinities travel between galaxies in the primordial era, Master? Wouldn't the absolute void in-between galaxies be a problem for True Divinities as well?" Lynne asked with doubt.
'Hahaha…' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress softly chuckled.
'Child, there was no such thing as absolute voids back in the primordial era. There was only Primal Chaos. These absolute voids were only ford after the Great War shattered everything apart, ending the primordial era along with it.'
'Even now, the aftermath of the Great War can be vaguely felt as the galaxies continue to shift ever further apart from each other,' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress added.
Throughout Lynne's conversation with her master, she didn't idle on the ice mountain.
Instead, she had been burrowing her way through the thick ice to reach the heart of the ice mountain, where the Celestial Ice Spark.
Even without the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress's guidance, Lynne understood where the Celestial Ice Spark was located.
It would be strange if she, soone with the ice ability, not to sense the overwhelming icy power flowing from the depths of the ice mountain.
Nevertheless, the interior of the ice mountain was not solid.
Instead, it was primarily hollow.. Many open spaces and passageways inside the ice mountain were massive enough for behemoth-size beasts to move through them.
