The 119th reincarnation.
The 225th reincarnation.
Sotis tens of thousands of years, sotis thousands, at most less than two hundred years before an accident occurs, human nature returns, turning the entire world into a demon beast purgatory.
But the longest exceeded 400,000 years, within which more than a dozen different eras split from the entire epoch, repeated wars and conflicts, repeated divisions and unifications, providing an extrely rich legendary epic and history for the entire epoch, and human civilization almost discovered the Domain of Void and the world’s reality.
The Ashen King and Ashen Ian have seen it all.
They witnessed happiness, saw suffering. They heard singing, heard wailing. They witnessed nobility, also witnessed greatness.
They watched all powers establish, all kingdoms collapse.
Those oaths, curses, those sincere or false prayers, those tragic or ludicrous wars, they witnessed them all.
The cruelty and kindness of Humans, the malice and innocence of Humans, all these are no longer surprising. The parents who sacrifice everything for their children, the parents who strangle their children with their own hands, all appear ordinary in the long reincarnation, neither noble nor base, because it’s just a part of human nature.
Reincarnation continues, Ashen Ian waits silently on Dragon Island. If Ashen King is an inhuman will, then Ashen Ian is a creation that even the current Ian cannot comprehend.
He waits.
Even when not visible, even when only able to perceive Ashen Ian’s existence indirectly through Ashen King as a ’diating point’, Ian knows what the other is doing.
He controls the Thousand Stars, replacing the Dragon Kings to guard Dragon Island. The Calamity of Light destroyed half of Terra, and the remaining half is being remolded in his hand.
Millions of years passed, tens of millions of years passed, the Fragnt of Demise on Dragon Island did not break the seal. As the Dragon Kings said, as long as a qualified successor is found, the Fragnt of Demise cannot erge.
And after the Calamity of Light, the ’Cradle’ is gradually fully restored... Above the Firmant, except for the planets within Terra, there is no longer a single external star.
Even so, Ashen Ian continues to wait.
What is he waiting for?
Ian doesn’t know either.
Perhaps the limit of the Cradle, perhaps the return of the Star Gods, perhaps when that End outside will attack the Cradle without any provocation... In short, Ian, as one who knows the true essence of the Guiding Star’s Inheritance, waits to obtain information impossible to obtain by normal ans.
The 314th reincarnation, ’within the Cradle’, 8 million years after Terra’s destruction.
Nothing has changed.
The 1925th reincarnation, ’within the Cradle’, 30 million years after Terra’s destruction.
Nothing has changed.
The 5572nd reincarnation, ’within the Cradle’, 100 million years after Terra’s destruction.
Still nothing has changed.
million years, it seems very long.
Whether for a human, a nation, or a civilization, or even a species, 100 million years is very long.
But for a planet, for geological changes, for an entire ecosystem, 100 million years... doesn’t seem very long either.
On the forr planet, dinosaurs ruled the world for 140 million years. From their ergence to their extinction, many changes occurred, but much remained unchanged; they were still dinosaurs, even if they beca more environntally adapted, more clever and keen, they remained dinosaurs.
If not for that mont when an asteroid triggered geological changes across the planet, thoroughly transforming the planet’s environnt and climate, dinosaurs might have continued to prosper for 200 million years, 300 million years, it was possible.
Humans preserved within Reincarnation are the sa.
Ian watches ti flow past him, Ashen King silently observes everything.
Whether it’s the foresighted them, or those within Reincarnation, they are doing the sa thing.
They wait.
Waiting for the change that ends everything to arrive.
And no matter how long the wait, it ultimately ends.
The 9704th reincarnation, ’within the Cradle’, 160 million 8 million 14 thousand 417 years after Terra’s destruction.
Change has arrived.
Dragon Island.
Encircling the mostly remolded Terra Star, Dragon Island continues to rotate silently. It is so sturdy that over a billion years left no mark on it.
After all, for creations of the Star God surpassing stars and celestial bodies, for Ancestral Dragons poised to beco Star Gods, over a billion years is just a fraction of a star’s life from birth to extinguishnt, how could it be so easily destroyed?
However, at this mont, it was destroyed.
From within, suddenly increased gravity shattered the entire Dragon Island.
It transford into a Black Hole... into a nearly imperceptible dot.
"At last!"
Standing before him, Ian, who has been silently observing all this, opens his eyes wide, his heart filled with excitent and tension: "Although I don’t understand what Ashen Ian is doing, he is definitely not a person who deliberately releases the Fragnt of Demise."
"Indeed, Dragon Island’s seal is not permanent, even if maintained by soone, it will collapse after 160 million years!"
"No... wait. It’s not. The collapse of the Dragon Island Seal is due to Aether!"
