Chapter 2755: What Eternity Exists in This World!
Jiangnan was dumbfounded on the spot!
(๑ʘ̅口ʘ̅๑) "Wh-what? A natural disaster that can blast over a dozen Star Devourers working together in defense to the point of spitting blood? You want me to refine it? Is that even possible?"
"Are you trying to get me killed here?"
Refining the Second Heavenly Disaster, the Eternal Gale?
Is this really something that can be done by human strength?
Black God spread his hands: ╮(•́～•̀)╭ "Is there a problem?"
Jiangnan's forehead dripped with sweat:
(•́﹏•̀٥) "I'm bold, not suicidal! Sure, I'm strong now, but I'm not confident I could withstand a Star Devourer-level attack head-on!"
"Are... are you sure about this?"
Black God flashed a playful smile:
(≖ᴗ≖๑) "Want to go back?"
Jiangnan's mouth twitched, but he stepped forward and grabbed Black God's hand, his expression turning serious:
(˵ಠĹ̯ಠ˵) "I think it's worth a try. After all, people are forced into things, right~"
Black God rolled his eyes:
(꒪ั～꒪ั*) "Then what's the problem? It's not like I'm asking you to eat it raw. Follow me!"
With that, he took a step forward. A gentle breeze stirred, and he was already over a million kilometers away!
Each step was a flash, covering an astonishing distance!
Jiangnan watched, baffled. What kind of trick was that?
Was it that ability from Lín Qíng?
He quickly followed, feeling uneasy.
He should have written a will or something before coming here, dammit!
He could now confirm that coming here at his current strength to take the Eternal Heart was indeed a bit premature.
The two continued traveling through the Star River Graveyard. In the vast starry sky, it seemed like only their figures existed.
The Stellar Sea Undercurrent carried countless ruins and debris from the old era—desolate and tragic.
Together with time, they had witnessed that unknown history...
The Star River Graveyard was enormous, and they had already passed beyond the Chuangjie Daxu, heading deeper.
Everything they saw was silence. Jiangnan saw meteorite belts formed from the shattered remains of Giant God Soldiers, completely torn apart.
He saw broken ghost starships sailing through the undercurrent, drifting around the graveyard for who knows how many years.
He also saw a sword array embedded in the void. Though the blades were rusted and decayed, they still stood in nothingness, letting out a mournful howl when the wind passed.
(๑◔～◔ิ) "There~ right ahead."
Following Black God's direction, Jiangnan looked toward the end of the Star River Graveyard and saw a massive wall of wind spanning heaven and earth!
It connected the sky and the ground, with no end in sight. The raging gale swept up everything, tearing, roaring, and destroying all!
Vaguely, he could see countless figures of ancestors hidden within the fierce wind—
Gathering and dispersing, tangible yet formless.
Jiangnan's face paled slightly. He thought the Martial Immortal Torrent was already shocking enough!
But compared to the Eternal Gale, the Martial Immortal Torrent seemed insignificant.
This was definitely a place where even Star Devourers wouldn't want to enter—a realm of chaos and destruction.
Black God said, "What are you dazed for? We need to go a bit deeper. Stay close and don't die. We have to rush to the center of the gale."
With that, a cyan glow emanated from his body, and he plunged into the wind.
Jiangnan quickly followed.
Inside the gale, Jiangnan activated his Starry Sky Sovereign Domain to its maximum, but his body still endured the tearing of the wind.
Infinite wind blades struck his body, producing clanging sounds. Sparks flew from the cuts!
Jiangnan marveled at the terrifying intensity of the gale.
He immediately activated the "Boundless Horizon Armor" for defense. At this intensity, any ordinary Star Breaker would be shredded upon entry!
The sound of howling wind filled his ears; the world was a blank white.
Indistinct shouts and battle cries echoed, lingering long after—as if he had entered another world!
The world of wind!
But even though the gale was fierce, it wasn't to the point where Jiangnan couldn't move.
Black God and Jiangnan struggled forward, resisting the wind's force.
But before they had gone far, Jiangnan saw an extremely fierce blade light appear in the distance!
It merely flickered for a moment!
His Fate-Knowing ability activated, and a sense of extreme danger surged. Every hair on Jiangnan's body stood on end, and he almost instinctively activated his movement!
Yet the blade light had already appeared before him!
It was a massive blade light spanning several light-years, as if it wanted to annihilate everything in front of it!
Its attack intensity was definitely at the Star Devourer level!
Jiangnan's eyes bulged. He generated his Star Cosmos Armor, wrapped himself in the Möbius Ring, grabbed a 2D Blade with one hand, and released a Dimensional Reduction Strike with the other to create a 2D Plane as a shield!
He was about to brace for impact!
But at that moment, Black God moved. His cyan hair flew, and he raised his hand toward the blade light.
"Wind Guard!"
A cyan wind sphere instantly formed, enveloping them both!
The fierce blade light struck the wind sphere heavily!
The wind sphere merely rippled slightly without breaking. However, the blade light cleaved through the endless gale, leaving a massive rift, and then shattered!
Under the wind's influence, the blade light reformed and blew elsewhere.
Jiangnan licked his dry lips. Even though he wasn't hit, the oppressive feeling of the blade light’s approach was real!
It even gave him the feeling of having died once!
That blow would have been unpleasant even for a Star Devourer. And Black God, using this body of Lín Qíng, had blocked it so effortlessly?
Good heavens...
How strong was Lín Qíng in her prime?
And how much power could this body unleash under Black God's control?
Black God raised an eyebrow smugly:
(๑◔⇀◔ิ) "What? Impressed by big brother?"
"You'd better save your strength. The suffering hasn't even begun yet~"
Jiangnan curled his lip: (꒪ͦ～꒪ͦ๑) "Tch... I... I could have taken that myself..."
They continued forward. But the deeper they went into the Eternal Gale, the harder it became.
The number of remnant shadow attacks increased. Fortunately, Black God's wind sphere was reliable, and they passed through them all unscathed.
Until they encountered a giant hand that blotted out the sky!
It was formed by infinite gales, mixed with black energy, slamming down at them with the might of heaven's collapse!
Wherever the giant hand covered, the void was suppressed like metal!
Even Jiangnan's Starry Sky Sovereign could barely mobilize the space under the hand's suppression!
He couldn't even run!
Compared to this, the Silicon-based void suppression was child's play!
Even Black God looked annoyed now.
"Tch... how troublesome!"
Clearly, this palm strike couldn't be blocked by the wind sphere. Out in the open, it would be enough to shatter a large star system!
Black God finally drew the crystal long flute tucked at his waist for the first time!
He swung it sharply. Wind threads passed through the flute holes, producing a sharp, urgent sound!
The flute pointed straight at the sky-covering hand!
"Gale Breaker!"
"Boom!"
The giant hand seemed to be struck by an invisible heavy blow, shattered into pieces, and dissipated.
Jiangnan was stunned.
With this body, how strong was Black God exactly?
Even Noah and Manty might not be able to beat him, right?
Sigh~
The path ahead grew increasingly difficult. Not just giant hands, but also Desolate God shadows, fleet bombardments, all sorts of ghosts and monsters appeared!
Jiangnan was completely sidelined—every attack was lethal!
Black God kept using the long flute to break through shadow after shadow, leading Jiangnan deeper.
Then, Black God spoke:
"Did you know? In the beginning, there was no Eternal Gale. It started as just a gentle breeze on the battlefield, carrying its insignificant dream..."
"During the Cosmic War, countless strong warriors fought on the battlefield, each with their own beliefs, perseverance, and fight to the death. No one knows how many fell, nor how many rose again."
"Regardless of the outcome, the era was destined to end in their hands. Eternity would cease to exist, becoming buried history. And as time passed, even history would be worn away..."
Black God spoke as he fought, his eyes filled with melancholy and recollection.
His words were scattered by the wind, yet they rang clearly in Jiangnan's ears.
His memory seemed to drift back to that distant age, that blank period of history.
Jiangnan said nothing, only listened quietly.
At this moment... he was definitely a good listener.
"But that gentle breeze refused to accept it. Even knowing the outcome was unchangeable, it didn't want the Eternal Era to die out. It loved that era so much..."
"So it blew on the battlefield, blowing and blowing, silently recording everything—the final glory of the Eternal Era. It engraved all of it into that gentle breeze."
"Wind is formless. But when it has something it wants to do, even wind takes shape. Where the wind blows, it outlines people's forms, memorizing them, preserving them forever."
"Time is the most merciless—enough to turn everything into seas and mulberry fields. But that gentle breeze inscribed it all: people's unwillingness, their confusion, faith, despair, longing, expectations... everything."
"Using the battle aftershocks of the strong as nourishment, and the will and obsession of the fallen as support, that initial breeze eventually became the gale sweeping through the entire Star River Graveyard!"
"It has been blowing through this starry sky for 2.2 billion years. Never stopping!"
Jiangnan was filled with shock. The mighty Second Starry Sky Calamity, the Eternal Gale—it had started as just a breeze on the battlefield?
It was the recorder of the Eternal Era's final glory!
Black God's eyes were melancholic as he looked at the countless lingering shadows in the endless wind.
"See that? This is the final glory of the Eternal Era. History is never a set of cold words—it is a brilliant chapter woven by the common people! Heart-stirring and magnificent!"
"This gale also wanted to become eternal, to keep blowing until the end of time, so that people would forever remember how brilliant the past Eternal Era was."
"That's why, whenever someone comes to the Star River Graveyard, the Eternal Gale never misses a chance. Perhaps it wants to show people everything it recorded—to blow it for them to see."
"Come! Look! Look at all of this!" it proudly displays, simply because it doesn't want to be forgotten."
Black God's eyes grew profound as he gazed into the depths of the gale.
"But in this world... what eternity exists..."
