# Chapter 4098: The Singularity
In the universe, the destructive energy formed by the self-detonation continued to spread, expanding outward without cease.
It destroyed stars and collapsed space. Nothing remained.
After the entropy flare, the world barriers of the three realms had already become much weaker. Now, like three sheets of paper, they were ignited by flames from the center. The flames burned outward continuously, forming an ever-growing hole.
This was the impact Zhang Ruochen's reversal of the Dao and self-detonation had on the universe.
In just one hour, the diameter of the spatial hole reached tens of billions of miles, spreading far faster than the speed of light.
However.
The speed of the destructive energy's expansion was slowing, gradually approaching the speed of light.
The Wuji circle gradually faded, becoming barely discernible to the naked eye.
"Whoosh!"
Amid the vast starry sea, Fengdu Dadi appeared before the Wuji circle, releasing his divine thoughts to analyze and sense the Dao principles and heavenly secrets contained within, hoping to prove that this was not formed by Zhang Ruochen's self-detonation.
He could not believe Zhang Ruochen would be forced into such a desperate situation, could not believe that a chosen son capable of cultivating a First-rank Divine Path would fall.
So many had placed their hopes in him, even sacrificing their lives for him. How could he possibly fall?
Fengdu Dadi dared not imagine what kind of tremendous impact Zhang Ruochen's death would have on this era. Even the fall of an Ancestor could not compare.
The destructive energy of the Wuji circle, like rolling waves, was now right before his eyes.
"Boom!"
Fengdu Dadi stood motionless as a wall of Half-Ancestor divine pattern light appeared before him, colliding with the destructive energy.
The light wall flickered violently, then trembled, causing even Fengdu Dadi's body to shake slightly.
"It is Zhang Ruochen's Dao... the Dao is destroyed! It has already spread for so long, yet the energy remains strong enough to shake a Half-Ancestor. At the initial moment, even an Ancestor probably could not withstand it."
Fengdu Dadi sighed inwardly, abandoning any remaining illusions.
Apart from a mutual destruction that released all his cultivation in an instant, Zhang Ruochen could not have unleashed such terrifying power.
Thinking back to when Zhang Ruochen had visited Fengdu Ghost City, presenting the Yellow Spring Seal and the Ancestor Divine Source, Fengdu Dadi suddenly understood. He muttered to himself, "It seems that even then, he had already prepared for the worst. What exactly did he go to do, and who did he see?"
"Whoosh!"
A figure in a red bridal gown, with white hair cascading like a waterfall, appeared in the space dozens of feet away.
"Any discoveries?"
As Heavenly Mother asked this question, her Half-Ancestor divine thoughts spread out, not missing any trace or clue.
Fengdu Dadi shook his head, recounting Zhang Ruochen's earlier visit to Fengdu Ghost City. He said, "Clearly, Zhang Ruochen discovered something, possibly related to the Immortal. He went to some secret place, knowing he might never return, and did not want the Yellow Spring Seal and Ancestor Divine Source to fall into the other party's hands, so he gave them to me."
"Rustle!"
The sound of flowing water roared.
Nutian Shenzun arrived, riding the Nether River, appearing before the two. He questioned, "Is it that simple?"
"I promised to do two things for him," Fengdu Dadi said.
"What things?"
"He did not say, but now I understand!"
Seeing that Heavenly Mother and Nutian Shenzun seemed not to believe his words, Fengdu Dadi said, "You two are not suspecting me, are you?"
"That possibility is not excluded."
Heavenly Mother added, "I just probed the surrounding space. There is no material existence."
"Such terrifying destructive energy is enough to kill a Half-Ancestor and wound an Ancestor. No material could remain. Even the heaven and earth rules have been cleared away!" Fengdu Dadi said.
"Even if Zhang Ruochen self-detonated, he could not destroy the first-rank divine artifacts. He had more than one first-rank divine artifact on him!"
Then, Heavenly Mother stared directly into Fengdu Dadi's eyes and said, "When I arrived, there was not no material here. At least you, Great Emperor, were present. Moreover, you obtained the Yellow Spring Seal and the Ancestor Divine Source of Yellow Spring Great Emperor, which originally belonged to Zhang Ruochen."
Lady Shiji arrived, riding the River of Time, silently watching the three Half-Ancestors locked in a tense standoff before her.
Fengdu Dadi said, "I am not one who likes to explain. However, this matter is of great importance. Do not let grief cloud your judgment and lose reason. When Zhang Ruochen visited Fengdu Ghost City, Wuwo Lamp and Xiuchen Heavenly God accompanied him. Summon them, and the truth will naturally come to light."
"This matter must certainly be investigated thoroughly," Nutian Shenzun said.
Flames burst forth, and a phoenix's cry carried sorrow and grief.
The phoenix's wings shimmered with nine lights and ten colors, resplendent and magnificent, causing the Nether River beneath Nutian Shenzun's feet and the River of Time beneath Lady Shiji's feet to become colorful and vibrant.
Feng Tian descended, wearing the Victory Crown. Her eyes released deathly radiance, and killing intent coalesced around her into a boundless sea of blood.
"Who arrived first?" she demanded.
Heavenly Mother and Nutian Shenzun both looked toward Fengdu Dadi.
There was no help for it. Under circumstances where all the perpetrators had fled, the one who arrived first at the scene was indeed the most suspicious.
"I hold the Yellow Spring Seal, with one thought spanning a thousand heavens. Is it strange that I arrived first?"
Fengdu Dadi felt that if he did not explain himself, Feng Caiyi would immediately fight him to the death. At this moment, her killing intent was too intense, far from the calm of Nutian Shenzun and Heavenly Mother.
"This matter definitely has nothing to do with the Great Emperor. Zhang Ruochen only encountered trouble after leaving Fengdu Ghost City."
Xiuchen Heavenly God had arrived together with Feng Tian and immediately explained to everyone.
Lady Shiji said, "Zhang Ruochen gave the Yellow Spring Seal and Yellow Spring Great Emperor's Ancestor Divine Source to Fengdu Dadi, the Victory Crown to Feng Tian, and sent Wuwo Lamp to White Clothes Valley. Going further back, he gave the Ancestor Blood Wings to Xue Jue, the Heart of Truth to Xiang Chunan, the Five-Colored Glass Cover to Feng Yan... He did all this to help everyone improve their survival capabilities when facing Ancestors, and also because he had long prepared himself mentally for death."
The Yellow Spring Seal represented space and speed.
The Victory Crown represented power.
Wuwo Lamp represented concealment.
Any one of these items, in the hands of a Half-Ancestor, could greatly enhance their chances of survival when facing an Ancestor.
Xiuchen Heavenly God thought of something and said emotionally, "Eighty thousand years! Yes, everything started from eighty thousand years ago. Now it all makes sense! Eighty thousand years ago, Zhang Ruochen was searching for a painting that all Ancestors since ancient times had sought, said to be related to the Immortal."
"But after one trip to Paradise Realm, he suddenly stopped searching. Now it seems he must have found the painting at that time and learned some terrifying truth."
"He dared not speak the truth. Even someone with his cultivation felt despair, so how could other cultivators fare any better?"
"He could only bury the secret in his heart, bearing the mountain-like pressure and the pain of hopelessness alone. Over time, worry turned into illness, and naturally his temperament changed greatly."
"Finally, eighty thousand years later today, he no longer wanted to sink further. He put down all burdens and went to face his own fate."
"Coward! He gave you the treasures that could counterbalance Ancestors, wanting you to continue carrying the heavy burden forward. Dying is so simple! He chose the simplest thing to do. Too cowardly!"
Everyone's eyes were on Xiuchen Heavenly God.
She was too indignant, her emotions out of control, but it was clear this came from genuine feeling.
"Do you think saying this will stop me from killing you?" Feng Tian said.
Xiuchen Heavenly God lifted her chin, closed her eyes, and said, "Kill me then! Now I finally understand. He had me deliver the Victory Crown to Destiny Temple because he wanted to remove me from the situation, not wanting me to die together with him. Feng Caiyi, if this god had not deceived you, you might have died at the hands of the Immortal. If Zhang Ruochen was forced to self-detonate, how could you have fared any better? You probably would not even have had the chance to self-detonate."
Lady Shiji said, "Xiuchen Heavenly God's analysis makes sense! In the current world, only an Ancestor could force Zhang Ruochen to self-detonate. But if Zhang Ruochen went to meet one of the Eternal True Ruler, Corpse Nightmare, Dark Sovereign, or Hongmeng Black Dragon, he would not have made so many preparations in advance, nor would he have gone alone."
"There is only one possibility: the one he went to see was the Immortal. Facing the Immortal, bringing more cultivators would be meaningless. Moreover..."
"Moreover what?" Heavenly Mother said.
Lady Shiji said, "Moreover, Zhang Ruochen was probably not certain in his heart."
"Exactly. If he had confirmed the Immortal's identity, he would not have needed to go at all! Going alone was a kind of probing, to verify his conjecture. This was very dangerous, so he prepared for the worst," Fengdu Dadi said.
Nutian Shenzun pondered and said, "Does this mean Ruochen had another plan?"
"What does Divine Venerable mean by this?"
Lady Shiji had a bad feeling.
Nutian Shenzun said, "Since it was a probing, he certainly wanted to convey the result of that probing. His fall is the result. The place he went before dying is the root of everything."
"Does Divine Venerable believe that Imperial Dust told someone in advance where he was going?" Lady Shiji said.
Nutian Shenzun nodded and looked at Heavenly Mother, saying, "This person must be the one he trusted most, and someone who might break through to Ancestor realm in the future, leading everyone to fight against the Immortal."
Heavenly Mother shook her head and said, "Do not look at me! If he did not even tell Kong Fannu, why would he tell me?"
Xiuchen Heavenly God said, "The ones Zhang Ruochen trusted most were definitely Xue Jue and Chi Yao. You older generation types, each of you is deep and unfathomable, carrying many secrets in your hearts, making you hard to read. How could he fully trust any of you?"
"Star Sea Angler, Fulou Divine Venerable, A Fuya... were any of them not bloody lessons?"
After a brief silence, Heavenly Mother said solemnly, "This matter must not be spread. Otherwise, Xue Jue and Chi Yao will be in danger."
Feng Tian flicked her sleeves and left, saying, "I am going to find Xue Jue! Today, I must know who the murderer is. Immortal or not, what of it?"
"If the murderer is Nether Ancestor, I will lead Destiny Temple, unite with the Divine Realm, and slay Him together."
"If the murderer comes from the Divine Realm, then what if I join the Nether Ancestor faction?"
"This time, blood must be repaid with blood! This game must be a dead end! I will not wait, not wait for the Great Calamity. If death is everyone's final destination, I will choose the time myself. I want to die fighting today."
Everyone present frowned, feeling that Feng Tian had completely lost reason, blinded by hatred.
If she cooperated with the Divine Realm or the Nether Ancestor faction, they would only see her as a tool for killing. How could she not recognize this?
"A person like Feng Caiyi actually fell so deeply into emotion? Truly strange!" Nutian Shenzun said.
Xiuchen Heavenly God said in a low voice, "It is all Zhang Ruochen's fault! He clearly knew he might not survive, yet he still said, 'If dust falls to dust, this crown replaces the phoenix crown.' Who would not fall after hearing that? No one knows Feng Caiyi better than me. She is single-minded. She is finished. Zhang Ruochen has destroyed her life!"
"Back then, Kong Fannin's death kept her living in hatred for a million years. She stopped at nothing to kill Xumi, until Xumi died, until Qishier Pin Lian appeared, before she finally walked out. Now that Zhang Ruochen is dead, she will definitely not walk out again! Have you ever seen someone who goes down one road to the end listen to advice?"
Feng Tian had not yet left when Xue Jue War God arrived first.
"Xue Jue, did Zhang Ruochen come to see you before? Do you have something to say to us?" Feng Tian asked coldly.
Seeing all the Half-Ancestors' gazes converge on him, Xue Jue War God suppressed the grief in his heart and said, "I have not seen Ruochen for a long time! What exactly do you all want to know?"
"Fine! I will go to Sword Realm. I will find Chi Yao," Feng Tian said.
Nutian Shenzun finally could not help but advise, "Such a major event has happened. Chi Yao will definitely come. You do not need to rush."
Nutian Shenzun transmitted to Heavenly Mother, "In Hell Realm, only the Destiny Twelve Phase Divine Formation can oppose Ancestors. Feng Caiyi is the core of the Destiny Twelve Phase Divine Formation. She absolutely cannot be lost. Think of a way to calm her down first."
"Xiuchen, you think of a way?" Heavenly Mother said.
Xiuchen Heavenly God said, "Me? What way can I think of?"
"Senior Brother! Senior Brother! Stop playing. Come out and see who I have brought!"
Blood Butcher arrived, bringing Ming Emperor and Xue Hou.
Xiuchen Heavenly God transmitted to Blood Butcher, "Think of a way to advise your master. Her emotions are quite out of control."
At this moment, Blood Butcher had none of his usual frivolous demeanor. He wore heavy armor, his expression solemn. Although his brows were tightly furrowed, compared to Xue Hou and Ming Emperor, he controlled his emotions well.
Blood Butcher walked before Feng Tian, bowed deeply, and said, "Master, I have heard from Xiuchen Heavenly God. Before the incident happened, Senior Brother gave you the Victory Crown. This is a war tool that can cross realms to strike down enemies. Clearly, Senior Brother entrusted the heavy responsibility of opposing the Immortal to you. He wants you to live, wants you to be able to plan strategically, and has absolute confidence in you."
"At this time, we absolutely cannot act impulsively. We must face the most difficult challenge with absolute calm. Immortal or not, when Master breaks through to Ancestor realm, you can strike down and slay Him."
"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Feng Tian stood proudly, her gaze sharp.
Facing the Half-Ancestor's pressure, Blood Butcher quickly said, "No, no, disciple is worried that Master's grief might be excessive and exploited by those with ulterior motives. I do not know if the heaven and earth rules have changed, but disciple has been stuck at Great Unbound Infinite for many years, unable to break through. I still need Master's guidance and protection. The billions upon billions of cultivators in Destiny Temple are the same."
Seeing Blood Butcher, already a powerful figure in his own right, still playing pitiful, almost crying, it was undoubtedly an act to advise her.
Some of the extreme anger in Feng Tian's heart dissipated, and the deathly radiance in her eyes was no longer so blood-red.
The gentle light divine radiance emitted by the Victory Crown on her head also dispelled the endless killing intent.
She snorted coldly, "What change in heaven and earth rules? Sometimes you need to find the reason in yourself. Have the difficulties of breaking through decreased over the years? Have you been cultivating diligently?"
"Disciple... disciple..."
Blood Butcher was momentarily speechless, not knowing what to say.
Feng Tian had cultivated to the Half-Ancestor realm, so her will was naturally extraordinary. She had already calmed down.
People can be sad, but they cannot be controlled by emotions.
The killing intent remained, but she locked it in her heart.
"Blood Butcher has some ability after all. Even Feng Caiyi was advised by him!" Xiuchen Heavenly God said.
Nutian Shenzun said, "The only one who can advise Feng Caiyi is herself. Zhang Ruochen giving her the Victory Crown is undoubtedly putting a lock on her decisive and ruthless nature. Wearing this crown is like wearing a phoenix crown. From now on, she has another identity, another responsibility."
The most emotionally out of control was Xue Hou.
After arriving, she cut her wrist and released a large amount of divine blood.
Using divine blood as a guide, she carved secret patterns, actually setting up a soul-summoning formation.
"Have you gone mad? What realm are you at, and what realm is Zhang Ruochen at? You want to summon his soul? Even an Ancestor summoning his soul would have to pay with their life, and might not even succeed."
Xue Jue War God struck with one palm, shattering the soul-summoning formation Xue Hou had set up.
"I am his mother. His soul was nurtured from my body. My blood can summon his soul. Do not mind me. Life or death, I decide myself."
Xue Hou's gaze was resolute, breaking free from Xue Jue War God's hand.
On the other side, Ming Emperor also cut his wrist.
Xue Jue War God took a deep breath, divine qi erupting from his body, his long hair shattering his jade crown. He roared, "The gray-haired send off the black-haired. I am more grieved than any of you. So many have left: the old clan leader, Fulou Divine Venerable, Tianyin, Xue Yao, Xue Qingsheng... I lost my best brother, lost the elder who most protected me, lost my master, lost my son, yet I am still alive. Xue Qingyin, I am still here! You do not want to live anymore? If you want to summon souls, then let us do it together. The whole family will go together neatly."
Saying this, Xue Jue War God also cut his wrist, letting divine blood spill.
As the destructive energy of the self-detonation weakened, more cultivators arrived. Some were concerned about Zhang Ruochen's life or death, others came to gather information.
The cultivators of Hell Realm arrived the fastest.
Bore, Desolate Heaven, Luo Yan, Luo Suo, Hai Shang You Ruo, Ice King, Yan Huanyu, Yan Yu...
All were gods, but also people with emotions. Many silently shed tears.
Watching the scenes before her, even though Heavenly Mother knew Zhang Ruochen had long planned to fake his death, her heart still had no bottom. "Self-detonation, the Dao completely destroyed, how could he still be alive? Could there have been an incident beyond his plan? Has he truly fallen?" Heavenly Mother thought to herself.
Nutian Shenzun's brows remained tightly furrowed. "In the universe, all heavenly aura related to Ruochen have dissipated. Not even a wisp of remnant soul remains."
Lady Shiji said, "Earlier, forty clusters of Dao light appeared in the universe. The Dao light reversed into Five Elements and Four Symbols, then transformed into Taiji, and Taiji degenerated into Wuji. This is a mutual destruction method of reversing the Dao. Even the Dao is completely destroyed, let alone the soul?"
The members of the Blood Absolute Family had long calmed down and regained reason.
Summoning souls was fundamentally impossible.
It was just an obsession in their hearts, unable to accept this fact for a moment.
Black and White Daoist saw more and more gods gathering in this void space and was very worried. He said, "Great Emperor, this old man believes that Imperial Dust's death cannot be reversed. Finding the murderer is even more difficult than reaching the heavens."
"The most important thing now is to maintain stability, especially at Sword Realm. Hell Realm must have a Half-Ancestor-level existence go there to consult with Yunshen Daozhu and Wen Tianjun."
"Secondly, the orphans and widows left behind after Zhang Ruochen's death are rushing to Hell Realm from all directions. There are great safety hazards. We must find a way to protect them."
Hearing the words "orphans and widows," Blood Butcher felt a nameless anger rise. He roared, "Black and White Ghost, what are you saying? My Senior Brother may not have fallen yet! He is the number one under heaven, undefeated in a hundred battles. Try cursing him again!"
Black and White Daoist would not take a junior like Blood Butcher seriously. He said, "This old man also hopes Imperial Dust is still alive. With him, Sword Realm's situation would certainly be stable, and the three sides of Heavenly Court Universe, Hell Realm, and Dark Abyss would not be in turmoil. But dead is dead. You cannot accept it, but you must. If you do not look forward, when the Immortal makes a move, everyone will be finished together!"
Fengdu Dadi clearly understood the validity of Black and White Daoist's concerns. So he said, "Spread my decree throughout the universe: This emperor owes Zhang Ruochen a great favor. If anyone dares to harm his wife and children, Fengdu will surely kill them."
"Why does the Great Emperor need to issue such a decree? If such a person appears, below Indestructible Infinite, I, Blood Butcher, will take them all. I will pursue them to the ends of the earth and grind their bones to dust!" Blood Butcher said.
Suddenly.
The Half-Ancestor-level existences present all looked toward the direction of Lihentian.
They saw a beam of righteous qi descend, illuminating the darkness and filling the void.
Standing within the righteous qi were three figures: "Fourth Confucian Ancestor," "Wen Qingxiu," and "Xu Mingjing."
Instantly, countless hostile gazes turned toward them.
Without a doubt, the Divine Realm was highly suspicious.
Fourth Confucian Ancestor said, "Everyone need not suspect Eternal Heavenly Kingdom! Eternal Heavenly Kingdom's consistent purpose and goal have been to lead all cultivators in opposing the Great Calamity."
"Imperial Dust's fall is definitely a loss to the world, removing an important pillar from the camp opposing the Great Calamity. This is not what Eternal Heavenly Kingdom wants to see!"
"This matter must be the work of the Nether Ancestor faction! Eighty thousand years ago, the painting Imperial Dust and this old man were searching for was related to Nether Ancestor. At that time, Imperial Dust followed the clues and first went to the Maer Temple in Paradise Realm, locking the target on Kelo. But at the critical moment, a transcendent strong one proficient in the Way of Time rescued Kelo."
"Just now, before Imperial Dust self-detonated, the soul lamp Kelo left in Radiant Divine Temple went out! There must be an inevitable connection between the two."
"If you all do not believe, you can ask my two disciples. Eighty thousand years ago, they always followed Imperial Dust and have much understanding of the information about that painting."
A fire crow flew from beyond the heavens, laughing, "Eternal Heavenly Kingdom's framing and framing technique is really good, but too clumsy! In terms of time attainment, who can compare to Eternal True Ruler, who has lived for nearly ten million years? To rescue someone from Imperial Dust's hands without leaving a trace, besides Eternal True Ruler, who could do it?"
It was Red Crow King.
Zhang Ruochen alive had the value of being alive.
Dead, he also had the value of being dead.
Many of the top cultivators in the current world owed Zhang Ruochen favors, and each wanted to avenge him. Like Feng Caiyi had said earlier, Immortal or not, blood must be repaid with blood.
Whoever could use this power of hatred would have the opportunity to completely defeat the other side.
Because the destructive energy of the self-detonation had cleared some traces, finding the murderer was already as difficult as reaching the heavens. Now each side had their own arguments, none wanting to take the blame, making the waters even murkier!
The destructive energy of the self-detonation continued to spread.
For cultivators below the Divine Realm, space that was difficult to shake appeared extremely fragile before this level of energy.
A full several years passed before the space stopped collapsing.
The three-realm hole formed by Zhang Ruochen's self-detonation reached a diameter of ten light-years. Further away, star domains spanning nearly a hundred light-years had all their stars shattered, turning into a patch of darkness.
Looking from other planets, a circular void appeared in the starry sky.
Although Zhang Ruochen's self-detonation had reduced his physical body, divine soul, and spiritual power all to origin particles, his consciousness had not disappeared.
This feeling was wonderful. It was not the first time he had experienced it.
Back when he was still at the Great Saint realm, when he went to Taichu to cultivate the First-rank Divine Path, he had experienced it once.
That time, relying on the Heart of Truth, he spent endless ages collecting all his particles and recondensing his body.
It was precisely because the First-rank Divine Path, from the moment it was successfully cultivated, had such an ability that Zhang Ruochen dared to take the risk.
Using this method, he could shed his shell and fake his death to hide.
He was now like a lonely ghost, able to see many scenes in the universe, but the cultivators in the universe could not see him. He was in a state beyond soul and spirit.
Even though the self-detonation had already passed several years, Zhang Ruochen still dared not act rashly, because all his consciousness was within the Wuji circle, with a diameter of roughly several thousand light-years.
Within this range, the Wuji circle had almost ceased to exist. Except for Zhang Ruochen, even an Ancestor might not be able to sense it.
The Wuji circle, everything is "nothing," possessing no energy characteristics. It was unique to Zhang Ruochen.
But the Immortal could not be judged by common sense. Zhang Ruochen waited another hundred years, until the range of the Wuji circle's expansion covered both Heavenly Court Universe and Hell Realm, before using his will to control it, slowly contracting it toward the center.
This center was no longer the center where Zhang Ruochen had self-detonated. It was constantly shifted by the space rules in the universe.
Zhang Ruochen's consciousness was like a boat on a river.
Space rules were the ubiquitous undercurrents.
Gradually, Zhang Ruochen discovered that the center of the Wuji circle had shifted to Sea Stone Star Harbor.
He was not panicked.
Because this was within his expectations.
Sea Stone Star Harbor was the birthplace of space, matter, and stars in the universe, holding extraordinary significance. It was even possible that it was the singularity where Zhang Ruochen had cultivated the First-rank Divine Path, evolved into this.
Faking death was very critical. One careless mistake could lead to real death.
Zhang Ruochen had repeatedly deduced various situations. So, over the past eighty thousand years, he had secretly gone to Sea Stone Star Harbor more than once.
The closer he got to the center of Sea Stone Star Harbor, the more violently space surged.
The most core place was pitch black, like a black hole, with the same characteristics as the Wuji circle: everything is "nothing."
But from nothing, it continuously gave birth to "something."
With Zhang Ruochen's peak cultivation, he could not approach. Zhang Ruochen called that place the "Singularity," where time, space, heaven and earth rules, and all myriad laws were born.
At that time, Zhang Ruochen speculated that even an Ancestor could not enter the Singularity.
But now, the Wuji circle had already contracted to the periphery of the Singularity, still shrinking further.
"After the entropy flare, the speed of matter and space birth in Sea Stone Star Harbor has slowed. The energy of the Singularity also seems to have weakened!"
"The Wuji circle and my consciousness are not considered matter. Can they enter the Singularity?"
Zhang Ruochen's consciousness, as the Wuji circle shrank to a diameter of eighteen zhang, had already re-assumed human form.
At this moment, he could actually stop and leave.
But driven by curiosity, he very much wanted to enter the Singularity.
Zhang Ruochen had always felt that the core of Sea Stone Star Harbor was not just a simple singularity. A familiar sensation came from there.
The last time he came to Sea Stone Star Harbor in person, he could not advance further when he was still hundreds of miles from the most core point.
Even then, he had felt something!
This time, the distance was only nine zhang, right before his eyes.
If he missed this opportunity and left, he might never be able to unlock the secrets within.
Zhang Ruochen looked ahead. In his field of vision was a black hole about one zhang in diameter. That was the unknown Singularity.
If he continued to contract the Wuji circle and got close, his consciousness might annihilate.
Gamble or not?
Advance or retreat?
If he hesitated, choosing to advance would definitely be better than choosing to retreat.
