Buzz——!!!
With the core of Pei Du's disappearing body as the origin, an extremely tiny energy vortex with terrifying suction force was generated out of thin air!
It was no longer the pollution that instinctively wanted to devour the furnace, but the dormant stardust seeds, under the nourishment of pure void energy, like a dying star being injected with endless fuel, began... a crazy absorption and rebirth!
The pure, vast void energy that was enough to annihilate planets no longer decomposed Pei Du's body. Instead, it rushed madly towards the faint star vortex like a torrent that had found an outlet!
Chichichi--!!!
Pei Du's charred, cracked, and decomposing body underwent an incredible transformation under the impact of this mad influx of pure void energy!
Fragments of charred skin peeled away like weathered rock, revealing a new, smooth, deep layer beneath, like cooled obsidian! The black cracks throughout his body didn't widen. Instead, under the infusion of void energy, they seemed to be welded and filled by the finest craftsmen, forming mysterious lines that flowed with a dark, void-like sheen, like living circuits!
The withered thorn embedded in his left cheek greedily absorbed pure void energy, fading away its charred blackness and becoming as sharp and crystalline as a black crystal sculpture, its surface shimmering with dark starlight and void purple light! Stardust's right arm, nearly half shattered, frantically sprouted a liquid metal substance condensed from pure void energy, shimmering with a faint purple halo. It quickly reshaped and extended, forming an even more ferocious arm, covered in void energy circuits, its fingertips lingering with the aura of annihilation!
The most fundamental change occurred deep in his chest!
That tiny vortex of starlight, madly absorbing void energy, rapidly grew and solidified under the infusion of vast energy! It was no longer a faint spark wrapped in pollution, but instead transformed into a slowly rotating, constantly pulsating, dark star core like a miniature black hole!
At the core of the star lies the purest, ordered light of stardust, like the core of a white dwarf! Meanwhile, the outer layers of the core swirl with a thick, cold, dark purple void energy imbued with destructive and devouring energy, like an accretion disk! These two diametrically opposed forces, destined for conflict and annihilation, have formed an extremely dangerous, yet remarkably stable... dynamic equilibrium around this newly formed, dark core!
Pei Du's long-dormant consciousness was forcibly awakened, absorbed, and reorganized at the moment this dark star core was born, just like iron filings thrown into a strong magnetic field!
However, this reorganized consciousness is no longer just "Pei Du"!
It's a mix of:
——The cold will of order (stardust core) originating from the ancient covenant stele.
——The greedy devouring instinct (void energy) of the "void silt" at the other end of deep space.
——The remaining mark of unyielding fighting spirit in Pei Du, forged by pain and anger.
——And... the cold and precise regular data stream that was forcibly injected by the Sentinel into the mental storm in the stagnation coffin!
These conflicting and chaotic spiritual fragments, which are forcibly blended together under the terrifying gravity of the dark star core, constitute a brand new, walking cosmic singularity... chaotic consciousness!
“Uh…ah…”
A deep, hoarse, inhuman roar, like a mixture of countless sounds, emanated from Pei Du's newly formed mouth, covered in obsidian skin. Slowly, with a newfound sense of stagnation, he straightened up in the core of the void furnace, capable of annihilating everything!
His eyes opened.
The left eye is a dark vortex that is constantly rotating, with a cold stardust order flickering at the center and dark purple void energy flowing at the edge!
The right eye was a pure crimson, constantly surging with blasphemous and insane data! That was the remnant of the Sentinel's data flow, polluted and eroded!
An indescribable pressure, a mixture of pure destruction, icy order, chaotic greed, and a precise sense of calculation, spread out like an invisible storm, centered around him! He was no longer the Lord of Ashes, no longer the King of Stardust Thorns, but... reborn from the Void Furnace, ruling over annihilation and chaos - the Void Star Core!
The furnace used by the gravekeeper for "purification" not only failed to destroy him, but instead became the ultimate furnace and source of power for his transformation and rebirth!
"Alarm! Alarm! The Void Furnace's core energy is losing energy abnormally! The rate of loss is increasing exponentially! High-dimensional life reactions and energy fields of unknown rules are detected to be generated in the furnace core! Threat level:...'Stellar level'! Repeat! Threat level: 'Stellar level'! Execute the highest emergency protocol: Furnace core...forced overload! Annihilate the abnormal bodies inside!" The shrill alarm sounded throughout the Gravekeeper Fleet in an instant!
Deep in the heart of the earth. A graveyard of roots.
Dark. Cold. Deadly silence.
Xu Shuangyao leaned against the cold, hard remains of a massive root. Every breath carried a thick cloud of dust and deep exhaustion. She clutched the jade-like, yet dimly radiant Gaia Seed tightly to her chest, as if it were the only source of warmth for her icy body. The plant network's final thoughts echoed through her weakened consciousness: [Heart... has been found... but... the spark... is fading... needs... fertile soil... vitality... resonance...]
Fertile soil? Vitality? Resonance?
In this root cemetery in the earth's core that is polluted by mycelium and has lost all vitality, where is the fertile soil and vitality?
Despair, like a cold vine, coiled around her once more. She could feel the pulse of the Gaia Seed in her arms grow weaker and weaker, its emerald green light like a candle in the wind, ready to go out completely at any moment. The faint warmth that the plant network, with its last remaining strength, had sustained for her was also rapidly dissipating. The cold and excruciating pain were slowly consuming the last of her consciousness.
