# Chapter 2797: Risk!
Without any further discussion, the group swarmed through the dimensional gap and arrived at the End Star Domain!
Jiangnan had never been here before. The last time he saw it was in Mountain Cat's data files!
But when Jiangnan tore through space and stared directly at the massive Absolute Final Black Hole, he was utterly stunned beyond words!
Under normal circumstances, a supermassive black hole could already serve as the center of a galaxy, using its own super-strong gravity to pull the entire galaxy into rotation!
Yet the main body of the Absolute Final Black Hole was even thousands of times larger than the Milky Way Galaxy!
Supermassive black holes in front of it were as insignificant as specks of dust!
Such an enormous scale was an extremely unreasonable existence!
Nothing could withstand the tearing force of the Absolute Final Black Hole!
Its accretion disk was in utter chaos, and the surrounding End Star Domain was exceptionally clean because everything had been pulled over and devoured by the Final Black Hole!
Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from the Absolute Final Black Hole, Jiangnan's face turned pale!
He indeed had the ability to manipulate black holes, but at this scale, even if he used every ounce of strength he had, he couldn't budge it, could he?
Jiangnan said with utter shock in his eyes:
∑(°口°๑) "This... this thing is the great-great-great-great-grandfather-level ancestor of black holes, right? This big?"
"This isn't scientific! How can there be a black hole this size?"
The Black God's figure emerged behind the group, gazing at the Absolute Final Black Hole!
(◕ˇ～ˇ◕) "Existence... is reason in itself. The reason it's called the Absolute Final Black Hole isn't an exaggeration, because this Starry Sky World will either reach the end of time or be devoured by the Final Black Hole!"
"This is the finality of the universe. Even now, it's still ceaselessly consuming the Starry Sky World, including the dimensional gap..."
"Although what it devours is negligible compared to my total power, if this continues over a long period, perhaps it will one day bring about my end!"
Everyone turned to look at the Black God. Even the Black God, a dimensional will like himself, wasn't an eternal existence?
Jiangnan glared:
(ꐦ°᷄～°᷅) "Heck! It dares to devour my big pot? I'm not going to take this lying down!"
The Black God rolled his eyes:
(꒪ั～꒪ั◕) "Give it up, will you? Going to deliver yourself as a sacrifice? By the time the Absolute Final Black Hole devours the entire Starry Sky World, it'll be ages from now. Even the last star in the universe would have extinguished who knows how long ago!"
"Why worry about something so far off? But you'd better hope this giant beast doesn't make any unusual moves, or the number one Starry Sky Calamity, the Old God Burial, might have to step down from its position..."
Hearing the Black God say this, everyone shuddered violently!
It would be more terrifying than the Old God Burial?
Sss~
Jiangnan chuckled awkwardly:
(⌒ㅂ⌒;) "I was just boasting, don't take it seriously. Speaking of which, Brother Fan, why did you choose such a huge black hole ancestor to charge into?"
"Why not pick a smaller one?"
Jiang Fan looked up: (˶‾᷄◠‾᷅˵) "If you're going to do it, of course you go for the biggest. Get it done in one go and save the trouble!"
Jiangnan: =͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)
"Ma... makes sense..."
Noah and the others couldn't help but sweat profusely. The Absolute Final Black Hole was already terrifying just to look at. Who knew how bold Jiang Fan was to dare charge into it?
But as Jiangnan gazed at the Final Black Hole, his expression turned serious. It seemed this thing had no reason to continue existing...
If there was a chance later, it would be better to get rid of it.
(๑◔～◔ิ) "How do we fish him out?"
Jiang Fan said calmly: "The reason I'm trapped is because the Absolute Final Black Hole's mass is too large and extremely stable, making it hard to generate significant disturbances!"
"If we can break the original balance and make the Absolute Final destroy its stable state, my main body can seize the opportunity and likely break free!"
Jiangnan exclaimed: Σ(°△°|||) "A large disturbance? Make the Absolute Final Black Hole flare up or jet? This..."
The Black God shook his head and immediately denied it: "Impossible! To make the Absolute Final Black Hole jet or flare up, pulling in half the matter in the entire starry sky wouldn't be enough!"
"And once it jets or flares, it would be a calamity on a world-destroying scale!"
Jiangnan's mouth twitched:
(´-﹏-`；) "I'm familiar with this. The only ways to break a black hole's stable state are through flares or jets. Given the Final Black Hole's mass, the total matter required is unimaginable..."
And if this thing were to jet, it would probably poke a hole right through the Starry Sky World, wouldn't it?
Jiang Fan nodded: "Exactly. So that's just a brute-force method. There's another clever way!"
"You activate Black Hole Devouring Star and merge yourself with the Final Black Hole. See if you can devour it, unify with it, or seize control—even for just an instant!"
"Using you as a breakthrough point and a bridge, my main body can likely break free from its bonds!"
Jiangnan's expression stiffened, and his mouth hung wide open:
ᕦ(°口°๑) "Me? Merge with the Absolute Final Black Hole?"
The other Star Devourers were also horrified. Jiangnan turning into a black hole and merging with the Absolute Final Black Hole?
How in the world would that merge?
Who's merging with whom, for crying out loud?
It was like dropping a drop of red ink into the ocean. The seawater couldn't possibly turn red, right?
Jiangnan frowned deeply:
(٥･ˇ﹏ˇ･) "This method... isn't it a bit too difficult? No one knows what the consequences would be. Is it reliable?"
Jiang Fan: "I haven't thought of any new methods yet."
But the Black God wouldn't stand for it. He pulled Jiangnan behind him!
"Reliable my foot? With Jiangnan's current strength, even if he activates Black Hole Devouring Star and merges with the Final Black Hole, he'd still be seeking death. The risk is too great!"
"Even if you can get out, what about Jiangnan? If he gets trapped in the Final Black Hole like you and can't come out, what then? Wait a few thousand or ten thousand years? Who's going to fish him out then?"
"Besides, right now we've only solved the wear-and-tear problem. The issue of returning to reality and the problem of lifespan consumption are still unsolved. What if Jiangnan overdoes it and exhausts his lifespan?"
"Who can say for sure? You went into the Final Black Hole of your own accord. The risk can't all be shifted onto Jiangnan, can it? Making him do this now is sending him to his death!"
The Black God absolutely refused! Even if Jiangnan himself wanted to do it!
The Black God was going to stop him right here today!
No way!
Why should my little brother take such a huge risk?
At this moment, Noah also spoke up!
(ಠĹ̯ಠ◕) "Jiangnan... think carefully. This isn't a joke! The Carbon Alliance can do without anyone, but it cannot do without you as its anchor. You're the hub that holds all the factions together!"
"In such a critical period, if you also get trapped in the black hole, the Carbon Alliance will collapse!"
Chong Qianjin added: "Merging with the Absolute Final Black Hole—even I think it's impossible. Even someone as strong as Brother Jiang got trapped. You don't have anything extra going for you!"
"Think it over again. Don't end up failing to save the ancestor and getting yourself buried in the process!"
The other race leaders also spoke up one after another. It wasn't that they didn't want to save Jiang Fan!
It was just that if the Carbon Alliance lost Jiangnan, the nature of things would be completely different!
Indeed, the starry sky would continue to operate without anyone, but Jiangnan was too important!
Yang Jian frowned deeply: (٥･ˇ_ˇ･) "Jiangnan! Don't be stubborn. Tell me, do you have confidence?"
Jiangnan smiled bitterly:
(⇀﹏↼‶) "No confidence... If Xuexue Wolfbane and Da Lang Mie found out, they'd probably grab my ears and fight me to the death. But Brother Fan, he..."
The Black God said seriously: "I know. I understand your determination to fish Jiang Fan out. But you also need to think about what you're responsible for. What if something goes wrong?"
"Aren't you going to abandon your whole family?"
"If you really want to save him, wait until you become a Star Devourer to try. By then, you'll be able to fully drive the Eternal Heart, so you won't have to worry about lifespan or physical problems!"
"Combined with the Soul-Sealing Method and Fate-Knowing, that's the safe way. When the time comes, if you want to try, I won't stop you. But not now!"
"The choice is yours to make!"
Jiangnan frowned deeply, and in the end, he shook his head: "Sorry, Brother Fan... I just can't afford to gamble anymore. I can't risk it..."
"At my current level of strength, rashly touching the Absolute Final Black Hole probably won't end well. I need to be responsible for myself and for everyone!"
"This will have to wait for later. When I become a Star Devourer, I'll come back and try. Don't worry, it won't take long!"
"Just eighteen phases. I'm at seventeen now. It'll be quick!"
Everyone nearly spat blood. What the heck?
Seventeen phases aren't enough? You plan to cultivate to eighteen phases before breaking through?
We beg you, please become a Star Devourer already! Leave us a way to live!
Who knows how strong Jiangnan will be after becoming a Star Devourer!
Jiang Fan nodded: "Don't worry about it. Risk assessment is something that must be done. I understand your choice!"
"Then we'll try again after you become a Star Devourer. My main body can still hold on. There's no need to rush this time."
Jiangnan patted his chest:
(︶◠︶*)ﾉ "Don't worry, Brother Fan! Even if I have to destroy the Absolute Final Black Hole entirely, I'll definitely fish you out of there!"
Hearing Jiangnan say this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief!
At least Jiangnan didn't rush in recklessly. Otherwise, the consequences would be unpredictable.
Noah smacked his lips:
(٥͡°一͡°) "Tsk~ I thought we'd see some big scenes. Who knew we came all this way for nothing..."
Jiangnan grinned:
(˵ಡ▿ಡ) "We traveled all this way. We can't just come back empty-handed!"
"Can't handle the big one? We can mess with something smaller! Brother Fan? Since devouring black holes can cause disturbances in the Final Black Hole..."
"Does that mean we can use this method to create a subtle connection between this part of your will-body and the main body inside?"
Jiang Fan nodded: "Indeed. But this method can't free my main body. The nature is different..."
"The disturbance isn't big enough either."
Jiangnan chuckled slyly: (΄◞ิ⥎◟ิ‵) "Then at least it can make your strength increase by a tiny bit, right?"
Jiang Fan was startled: (๑•̌～•̑) "You mean..."
