The Star Body True Body wasn't collapsing particularly slowly.
That was because Mother Bean had taken root in the star body. To crack open this hard walnut faster and reach the fruit at its core, it had sunk its roots deep into only one side of the star, desperately drawing in Law Aura. This had caused the crust on that side to break down and collapse.
Although the star could still barely maintain its shape, the destruction of its internal structural balance meant it was now irreversibly heading toward ruin.
Anyone who saw this star would have the same thought.
But given its enormous size, it would probably take at least another decade to reach the tipping point and collapse completely.
Until then, it should still be possible to carry the Star Source Holy Mountain back to the Starveil Land atop the true body.
That was for later.
At that moment, Reilo was undoubtedly completely absorbed in his experiments on Mother Bean.
He had to be careful with every detail of this experiment. It would therefore take place inside the fully sealed Mirage Eye illusion, where he first had to ensure that the Qinghui Worm could no longer control Mother Bean.
After all, this was only a bean—a plant seed, and nothing more than a tool the Qinghui Worm used to plunder the surface world it controlled within Curvature Space.
The earlier exchanges between Mother Bean and Reilo had, in fact, also been the work of the Qinghui Worm behind the scenes.
Now he had to make sure the Qinghui Worm lost control of this bean entirely.
The space around them was slightly distorted, like countless ripples mingling with patches of oil. Reilo didn't know whether the Mirage Eye's mysterious space, poised between reality and illusion, could block the Qinghui
