Chu Ming stopped before the gap.
He raised his right hand, palm aimed at the geometric center of the gap, his five fingers naturally spread slightly apart.
At the very moment he raised his hand, the Wave Grid within the Eternal Seed responded with a complete pulse.
The entire grid pushed out an exceedingly thin Definition Layer from the inside outward. The layer passed through the seed shell, through his palm, and appeared before the gap in a colorless, transparent form.
The shape of the Definition Layer precisely matched the area of the gap. Its dimensions contracted inward from the gap's edges by the width of a hair, like a trimmed sheet of window paper being pressed against the opening in a window frame.
When the Definition Layer touched the edge of the gap, neither Chu Ming's palm nor his breathing changed.
After touching the boundary of the gap, the edge of the Definition Layer did not pause in the slightest. It naturally spread along the inner walls of the gap, like water evenly coating the inner walls of a vessel, rising from the bottom toward all four sides. Every inch of its spread synchronized with the pulsing rhythm of the Wave Grid.
The bottom of the gap was covered first. The Definition Layer silently extended along the material of the base to its four corners, then climbed upward along the four walls. The walls were uneven, with tiny rises and depressions, yet as it spread, the Definition Layer adjusted the curvature of its edges on its own, clinging tightly to every protrusion and hollow without leaving a single gap. Within several breaths, the Definition Layer covered every inner surface of the gap.
Bottom, walls, ceiling—all surfaces completed their coverage at a uniform speed within the same span of time.
