The more they oppose, the more it shows that I am doing the right thing Chapter 507 - 289: The Truth About the World3

If one were to discuss overall strength, An Su had long surpassed ordinary saints, possessing the strength to stand against peak saints even as a princess in the present world.

And when he truly beca a saint in the full sense of the word, a transformation would ensue.

An Su could feel that he was only lacking one opportunity away from that mont.

After countless experints, the slightly flawed Magic Circuit of Holy Light Judgnt had been perfected by them, significantly reducing the amount of Magic Power consud. What originally drained the Morning Star Saintess's Magic Power in one strike now took two.

The Morning Star lowered his gaze, raising his slender, pale hand to feel the countless authorities and powers held within. He turned his head to look at the 'self' lying on the ground; An Su's body, after countless restorations, had finally reached the limit of its lifespan. Continuing to practice would truly lead to his death.

That was enough for today. The sky had already darkened, and the royal consecration ceremony was about to begin.

Before leaving, he used the Magic Eye to take one last look at the starry sky,

To An Su's surprise,

The star at coordinates (000 000 121), seen six hours earlier during the Era of Chaos, had moved slightly farther away, thus appearing dimr.

In the eyes of the Celestial Church, the starry map was akin to the tracks of destiny's life, forever fixed once risen. How could it be moving farther away? There was no record of such in the scriptures... An Su pondered this when his pupils suddenly contracted.

It wasn't moving farther away...

The Nether World wasn't becoming more distant, but rather was drawing nearer.

Because he was now the 'Morning Star' located in the Nether World, situated outside the current world amidst the stars, what he saw was it moving farther away...

An Su squinted, observing its new coordinates—(000 000 115).

The Era of Chaos was drawing closer to the present world (000 000 000); this was not just a set of coordinates, but a countdown!

The chaotic star was plumting towards the present world!

It suddenly reminded An Su of a phrase from the Erald Record, "From the earth it rises, and from the heavens it descends, to gain the powers from above and below, thus one may attain the world's glory, moving away from the darkness and ignorance."

From the earth it rises... An Su recalled his second dream, where countless destroyed worlds had risen into the sky, turning into stars.

Each era that ended in destruction forming a Nether World, wasn't it floating up from the ground, rising into the sky, becoming a star... The Nether World is 'from the earth it rises'.

He then rembered his third dream, where countless stars fell from the sky, shattering many prosperous eras into fragnts; this was 'from the heavens it descends'!

The Moon is also a star, the Red Moon too is a celestial body; therefore, the Era of Chaos destroyed by the falling Red Moon, after ascending as a Nether World into the night sky for thirty thousand years, might descend during the Radiant Era!

An Artificial Nether World colliding with the current world could devastate much of Farol.

What then would the scene look like when a real Nether World descends?

He also recalled a phrase, the opening chant of the original world line spoken by an Upper Senator from the Avad Empire—

'The Era of Chaos is about to descend'

(See the first volu 'Painful Radiance', just before the second volu 'Kingdom of Chaos', Chapter 92)

The 'descend' ntioned here, could it possibly be in the literal, physical sense of 'descent'!

Finally, An Su rembered his first dream, which was also the first Nether World he had experienced; from beginning to end, everything was connected.

The deities sat at the world's mahogany table, feasting on the flesh of creatures, while he...

was the appetizer on the table!
