[Why suddenly ask this question]
The voice of the Galewind Dragon King ca from all directions: [Was it your counterpart on the earth encountering such an existence?]
"Yes."
Ian closed the crystal plate before his eyes, lowered his gaze, and surveyed the surrounding database: "Demons have appeared in my territory, a fusion of Spirit Energy users and demons, possessing both wisdom and demonic powers."
He was in the ’Data Storage Area’ of Dragon Island, composed of densely packed giant crystal trees like a forest, where each branch represented a branch of information, and each leaf was a specific information chip.
Ian returned the ’Dragon Crystal’ of the ’Blazing Suspended Star Dragon’ to Dragon Island—in exchange, Ian obtained the freedom to browse Dragon Island’s data at will.
It sounds like a loss, but in fact, with the Rites of the Star Gods, Ian absorbs all records as soon as he sees them, making him reap more despite appearances.
The Galewind Dragon King knew this, finding a reason to retrieve the ntor’s relics while also assisting Ian.
Ian gleaned much from Dragon Island’s technology, which allowed him to create the ’Automated Combat Armor’ powered by the Heart of Terra within five months.
[I see]
Upon Ian’s words, the omnipresent voice of the Galewind Dragon King sounded somber, though his expression was unseen, Ian could imagine him sighing: [Soone will inevitably take this step, sooner or later...]
"Have others... no, other civilizations made such choices before?"
Ian keenly sensed the Dragon King’s sentints, curiously asked: "Why fuse with demons? Why not convert like into a Fae, or have Terra’s pre-epoch civilizations create ch Deities?"
[Whether Fae or ch Deities or demons, they all ultimately lead to one path]
The Galewind Dragon King said: [A path nad Spirit Energy Ascension]
[Any civilization proficient in Spirit Energy will tread this path. Endless souls rge into the subconscious sea, resentnt becos demons, blessings beco angels, naturally Fae, and artificially ch Deities]
[Now, the path you’re following on Terra can be called ’Primordial Ascension’, these paths aren’t contradictory, but for civilizations that haven’t broken into the starry sky, even choosing one path is challenging, opting for two is beyond their resource capability]
[Ultimately, these paths will rge into one]
[Thus, Terra’s current situation is unique, allowing dual-path progression]
"Is there also chanical Ascension then?"
Ian grew intrigued: "Isn’t that also quite prevalent?"
[Indeed, it’s quite common] The Galewind Dragon King said: [In fact, most civilizations develop so chanical technology, even purely biological civilizations like the Swarm have individuals using chanical structures]
[Overall, the path of civilization is just threefold, with demons being a particularly significant branch]
After a pause, the Galewind Dragon King pondered a mont then said: [As technology and ages evolve, the more chaotic, brutal, and frenzied a civilization, the more demons will breed]
[Without technological breakthrough, such civilization will perish due to demons, this is the first Great Restrictor in the universe]
[However, even chaotic, brutal, and frenzied civilizations have a slim chance—they can choose to convert the whole civilization into demons, hence embracing chaos and terror]
[Convert into ’Abyssal Kingdom’]
At this point, the Galewind Dragon King was sowhat emotional: [Such civilizations are rare, but once they erge, they bring disaster to surrounding civilizations—they are extrely xenophobic, never considering cooperation and mutual benefit, only devouring other civilizations’ souls completely leaving nothing behind]
[They are pure embodints of destruction and appetite, with the mission of conquering other civilizations... The Creator believes this also reflects a form of life’s essence, thus is reluctant to obliterate, instead chooses to gather these civilizations together, forming the Abyssal Starfield, letting those who chose brutality be brutal to each other]
Ian was silent for a while. He didn’t judge the actions of the Star God, as he didn’t care about these minor matters.
He only thought...a strange possibility.
"Galewind Dragon King."
The white-haired youth cautiously said: "Then... our current Terra civilization seems to fit that criteria?"
"Chaotic and terrifying, brutal and frenzied, seems like we match a bit..."
[Indeed]
The Galewind Dragon King unexpectedly admitted! He calmly said: [So I think, the appearance of Fusion Demon technology on Terra is not surprising, in fact, it should be there]
[But don’t worry, the order on this planet still prevails over chaos, peace exceeds terror, though there are elents of brutality and frenzy]
[However, if world war breaks out, order and peace will be lost, and then it might be a period of demon surge]
"I thought you guys despised demons."
Ian discerned a very neutral attitude towards demons from the Galewind Dragon King, perhaps he truly saw demons as another form of life akin to the Star Gods.
He was puzzled by such an attitude: "After all, dragons have always fought against demons, the King of the Mountain, Sio, and also the Great Prince... your alliances with various nations likely ant asking humans to help resist demons."
[Opposition?]
The Galewind Dragon King neither confird nor denied: [In your eyes, perhaps that’s the case, but Ian, haven’t you already learned from the ntor about the curse continuing within our dragon bloodline?]
[We are not here to eliminate demons, only to fight against the curse within us]
"Curse..." Ian whispered, his mind forming suspicions, but he pretended not to know and asked, "Isn’t that the thing flowing out of those destroyed Sparks?"
He wanted to get the correct answer from the mouth of the True Dragon King.
[It seems you are rely using the words of a ’Half-Demon’ to probe the truth from this ti]
The Galewind Dragon King sighed, the thunderous Dragon Head materialized in mid-air, He looked deeply at Ian, then said: [If that’s the case, then I will tell you]
[Ian, rember, don’t test us... We are not Humans, since we are already compatriots, I will reveal to you everything I know]
With that said, Ian was guided by the Galewind Dragon King to leave the Dragon Island’s database.
They flew out from underground to a space of void in the universe.
Along with the Galewind Dragon King flew out an entire set of observational components.
The brilliance of Aether flowed, the Galewind Dragon King constructed a large ’mirror’ in front of him, but this mirror used the cosmos space-ti as its body, Aether as its surface, reflecting a blurred and ethereal image.
The first image to erge was a blazing star.
Terra Sun – or rather, its scientific na on Terra [Heavenly Father].
Ian was initially unclear, but the lens zood in, causing Ian to montarily pause.
He saw in the sunspots on the surface, masses of solar gases moving quickly at sub-light speed... These gases were evidently not the result of natural solar operations but tracked the movents of living creatures.
They continuously shuttled through sunspots, forming nurous river-shaped structures, while so units would fly out of sunspots, orbiting around the Sun.
That is...
"Sunbird!"
Ian observed several tis, finally confirming the identity of the opposite party, he was sowhat amazed: "So this Magical Beast still exists in the wild? I thought it was the Alien God, which after being smashed, beca the Top Seat’s Blood of the Setar Family..."
[There are only a few remaining, Sunbirds reproduce with extre difficulty, requiring dynamic stellar activities to activate their reproductive systems...]
The Galewind Dragon King said with a touch of pity: [Moreover, they are nearly incapable of developing Wisdom – their instincts are too strong, can manage every difficulty, their thought speeds too fast that there’s no room for contemplation, so they are easily trapped by snares]
[But they are not the main focus, Ian, take a look again]
At first, Ian was puzzled, but soon enough, he understood.
He subrged his spirit into the Domain of Void, observing the Sun within the ’Void Realm’.
Then, he saw.
On the surface of the Heavenly Father Star of Terra, around the areas of those sunspots, there were enormous swollen eyes spinning around, they constantly rotated, releasing endless cold malice towards the universe.
While Ian watched in shock, the Galewind Dragon King slowly said: [That is the grievances accumulated within the Tera Star after the destruction of Sparks from elental civilizations such as ’Wilber’ ’Silent’ of Fire, ’San Ding’ ’Qun’ ’Karma’ of Light, ’Falvi’ ’Visa’ of Thunder, and others totaling twenty-two civilizations]
[Civilizations destroyed, Sparks collapsed, residual consciousness accumulated in the Void Realm, transforming into a demon nest... Although not yet powerful, there has never been any appearance of a Fifth Energy Level, but once it does appear, it would be a ’Solar Demon King’, the strongest entity of a civilization comparable to Demonic Ascension]
The Galewind Dragon King adjusted the lens, this ti, appearing before Ian was Terra’s first planet ’rcury Star’, the planet closest to the Sun.
This tidal-locked planet, one half scorched by the Sun and the other in extre cold, showed its tal core in the Void Realm as a fractured gear planet, constantly twisting and recomposing.
[This planet contains silicon-based and other molten elents, it is a site of fallen Sparks for so tal-based lifeforms, and also hosts so wisdom-lost Magical Beasts]
Faintly visible, in the massive tal layers, there were gigantic biological entities moving slowly, resembling the legendary ’Titan Giants’ of Terra.
"Don’t tell the Magic Potion materials of Fourth and Fifth Energy Levels need to be sourced from other planets..."
Ian muttered, "It shouldn’t be, right?"
[Indeed not, the life on Terra far exceeds that of these barren lands]
The Galewind Dragon King said: [Currently, there are planets with stable demon nests and so Spark lifeforms, only the Terra Sun, rcury Star, Aphrodite Star, Vesta, and so satellites around the Deus Star]
[Yes, just as you thought, it is exactly those areas where the Spark storage devices broke in the past, spreading Sparks, also regions in the Terra Starfield that have relatively abundant Origin Quality]
Indeed. Ian also knew that after the Heavenfall of the Terra epoch, during the Lost Epoch, many Extraterrestrial Gods ca to Terra, a number of them hatched on Deus Star and its satellites.
Of course, it wasn’t just Deus Star, but also Saturn Star... There are quite a few places in the Terra Starfield capable of hatching Sparks, but regions rich in Origin Quality capable of gathering demons seem to be just the Sun, and the three planets between Terra and Deus Star and its surrounding planets.
On these planets, so Spark survivors suitable to the local environnt exist, but they lost Wisdom, turning into Magical Beasts.
And this lost civilization, never about to revive this grievance... entangled upon these planets, transforming into Abyssal Nests.
The swollen eyes on the Sun, the fractured gear nest on rcury Star, the twisted corruption storm on Aphrodite Star, the sand vortex on Vesta Star, and the dark tide surrounding Deus Star...
"This is the Void Demon Horde aid at the Dragon Crystal..."
With the dragons using the Void Realm to observe the Terra Starfield, Ian even lost the strength to take a breath, he just slowly murmured: "So, the True Dragon always resisted, confronting these monsters?"
