The black hole-like star was shattering!
Cracks spread across the planet's surface. Fissures appeared in the obsidian-like outer shell amid the turbulence, deepening and multiplying without cease until they swiftly covered the entire black hole.
Boom!
Rumble!
Amid the explosions, the thick shell of impurities that had accumulated over hundreds of thousands of years shattered with a thunderous crash, turning into countless particles of dust that scattered in every direction and revealed the thing at its core.
It was infinite light!
It was infinite heat!
It was the infinite Great Dao of law annihilation and the Age of Dharma Decline!
This was an incomparably magnificent, incomparably brilliant star. Its light illuminated the entire starry sky in an instant, reappearing in the universe with a radiance far surpassing that of Sirius in the past.
Countless rays of light shone outward!
Then, in an instant, the light froze.
Because over hundreds of thousands of years, this star had gathered countless Natural Treasures and laborers from the Seven Great Star Domains and the Immortal Falling Realm. Its mass had become so terrifying that it could not be further compounded, and it had formed a black hole within the universe, emitting a dreadful gravitational pull from which even light could not escape.
Even light could not escape the gravitational range of this star!
If the gaze of a higher dimension descended here, it would be able to pierce through the black hole's ultimate darkness, through the infinite Law Annihilation Radiance and blazing heat, through layer after layer of plasma, and reach the very core of this star to discover the thing at its center.
It was a sword.
A sword three feet long and three fingers wide, gleaming with the color of sunlight.
It was precisely this existence, infinitesimal as a speck of dust
