Chapter 229
Everything seemed frozen in time, like a painting, quiet and peaceful.
I have no idea how much time has passed!
The light patterns on the Cocoon of the End are growing dimmer and dimmer.
Her vitality was visibly declining, her energy was waning, as if she were approaching the end.
Then it solidifies, as if it gradually hardens and becomes more astringent from its soft and bouncy texture.
Finally, the eggshell resembled a true mythical creature.
It has completely stopped wriggling.
It just stood there, unmoved.
"Click..."
A few soft sounds.
Yet it seemed like the morning bell and evening drum.
The news spread far and wide in this Land of the End.
There shouldn't be any concept of direction or distance here; everything is useless.
But.
To accommodate Kiana's habits, the Cocoon of the End made some special adjustments.
Thus, there was water, and there was sky.
There is up and down, and there is left and right.
But that's okay!
If it were Kiana herself, she would have done the same.
She has now inherited everything from the Cocoon of the End, including this so-called Land of the End.
This place became her exclusive territory.
It is her back garden.
She liked it very much.
"Snap—"
The huge eggshell was broken open by a small, white hand.
Then, the eggshell automatically opened up, like a honeycomb or scales, as if it had vanished with the wind, finally revealing Kiana's divine eagle.
At first glance.
She seems to still be herself.
In her Finality form, she is the complete her.
It still has three divine rings and three wings.
A gorgeous evening gown.
A graceful figure...
If we really have to talk about it!
The lines in her eyes, the mark between her brows, and the faint, shimmering light on her arms, body, back, legs, and even her entire body all indicate that she transcends the mundane.
There are also patterned marks on the delicate collarbone.
It resembles Stigmata, or perhaps an embellishment.
Perhaps it's noticeable that her attire has become even more magnificent. Sacred, noble, and aloof, yet exquisitely refined.
Each and every embellishment is truly like a starry sky, a galaxy, flowing and alive.
It was as if every piece of fabric in the gown was the most dazzling light in a galaxy, transformed into a hada (ceremonial scarf) and woven onto her body.
She alone seemed to possess the world and bear the weight of the universe, her capacity equivalent to that of the universe itself. Even just looking at her was terrifying.
But clothing and temperament are nothing more than appearances.
Her own leap forward is even more terrifying.
It's as if every cell is the first planet, and every tissue is a vast nebula.
Even if it's just a metaphor.
But the so-called falsehoods are merely that these planets and these galaxies, whether it be Kiana herself, her clothing, her embroidery, her brand, or even her wings, are all devoid of life.
Each one is the size of a small world.
Compared to before, it's a world apart. It's exaggerated to the extreme.
In fact.
Every star in the Land of the End, even the pool of water beneath your feet, evokes the same clear concept as the world itself.
If they wish to transform into the world, they can do so as long as their master, Kiana, allows it.
This is a tiny, microcosmic space within the vast universe of the Tree Sea.
It's like a separate ecosphere in the real world.
She has everything a normal Multiverse should have.
Even if it's just a prototype, it's still extremely rare.
Kiana probably wouldn't allow other creatures to inhabit her body, nor would she allow any kind of civilization to attach to her clothing.
She even felt that she was herself.
It is not a sacred entity formed from the condensation of countless stars.
She is just a human being.
So, just live life the way you like!
Isn't that right?
After her evolution, Kiana possessed limitless potential and reached the level of a single universe. This was enough for her to roam freely in the Tree Sea Universe and communicate with them.
And naturally, they learned much more about the identity of the creator of the Cocoon of the End.
Unfortunately, she never met the creator of the Cocoon of the End.
The being who was the subject of much speculation and discussion in his previous life has disappeared.
Or rather, they've disappeared.
Bored while staying in the Tree Sea Universe, I entered the void outside.
Some speculate that after Su ascended to a higher dimension, the person he played chess with might be the creator of the Cocoon of the End, but that's not actually the case.
Some speculate that it might be that the Erudition invited Su to play chess together and admired Su.
Because before the time travel, Honkai Impact 3rd and Star Rail had already collaborated.
This is not impossible.
However, that was all in the future.
"Hmm..." Kiana murmured softly.
The eyes were fixed on a certain spot.
It felt as if we had traversed endless years, infinite space and time, and boundless distances! Finally, on the Imaginary Tree, we saw vast expanses of space.
There.
It is clearly the Star Rail world.
Compared to searching for the Genshin Impact world or the Honkai Impact 3rd world you've visited, without coordinates, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Even if Kiana has never been to the world of the Star Rail.
Its presence is just too strong.
At her level, one glance is enough to see who is hoarding their own little world on the Imaginary Tree? Who is it that has encompassed so many leaves into a collective?
That must be the Star Rail Universe.
Star trails are laid on tree branches and trunks.
The boundaries between each leaf have been broken down and expanded, piling up the real starry sky in the vast universe.
Why do localized spacetime oscillations sometimes occur in the universe?
Does this cause the already disordered and unequal spacetime to become even more chaotic?
The answer is quite simple.
Ultimately, it is a conceptually constructed shared universe.
It's not real; it's just a leaf.
Between the leaves, in the Imaginary Space, in the Sea of Quantum, everything is ubiquitous and intertwined.
Even though the Real Space is not so easy to access that level.
And that will also be the case.
It was affected at some point.
So!
Throughout the entire Collapse Iron Universe, the hammer of the Preservation Star God is used as the beginning of each new era to record time, much like a night watchman who, at a fixed time, strikes the gong to tell you the current hour.
The only difference is!
Our Amber King rings the bell entirely based on his mood.
Therefore, an Amber Era, according to the established timeline, could last anywhere from sixty or seventy years to two hundred and forty or fifty years.
Then, by comparing the Amber Era with the standard year of our own world, we can perform conversions.
In reality, there will still be some discrepancies between different civilizations.
But!
This is already very good.
PS1: Second update delivered, one more to come, keep it up!
222. Good heavens, are these the 108 Generals of Heavenly Spirits and Earthly Fiends?
To be honest!
Even the Star God cannot harmonize all of time.
Fully proofread.
They are unwilling to do it. Nor could they!
So!
And naturally, no matter who it is, anyone living in this region, or frequently traveling and wandering in the Star Rail Universe, must accept this rule. Don't you think so?
Kiana could be seen clearly.
The walls built by our civil engineering colleagues have indeed enveloped the entire Star Rail Universe.
Although it wasn't completely wrapped, it was almost there.
These walls make it easier to determine the extent of the Honkai Impact universe.
As for the small area outside the wall.
Perhaps... it's the location of an enemy protected by something like the Gourmand Star God?
It's not yet within the simple realms of the Sea of Quantum and the Imaginary Tree.
However, it's not that far off.
After thinking about it, Kiana understood even more.
It was indeed just as she had imagined.
The so-called Tree of Existence theory of the Great Universe of Collapse Iron is similar to the Imaginary Tree theory.
