On the first day after the Dynamic Record Line came online, it displayed a slope consistent with the projected straight line. The actual narrowing progress completely matched his calculations. The two lines overlapped on the same coordinate plane within his sea of consciousness, and the difference between the curve and the straight line remained within the range of natural fluctuation, approximately less than one-thousandth of the value. No obvious divergence appeared.
He used a higher-resolution scan to penetrate the surface of the fault wall and enter the interior of its fibrous layer.
The method of narrowing presented a more refined picture under the scan: the material of the wall slowly migrated toward the center from both ends at once, advancing horizontally along the direction of the fibers.
No fragments, shedding, or loss occurred during the migration. The molecules in the fibrous layer maintained their original arrangement and density as they moved, while the entire block of material shifted bodily toward the center, like a stretched thread relaxing and retracting from both ends toward the middle at the same speed. Throughout the retraction, the thread's fibers did not break or twist, maintaining their straight course.
The edges on both sides of the fault wall remained parallel as they contracted inward. There was no case of one side shrinking faster while the other shrank slower.
He compared the reduction amounts on both sides one by one in the daily measurement data. Every difference was less than one-thousandth of the measurement precision and could not be distinguished at the data level.
After confirming the narrowing's complete symmetry, he expanded the scan range from the fault wall itself to the surrounding space.
Centered on the cross-section of the fault wall, his divine sense extended outward and scanned several zhang around the fault, examining the
