Chapter 479 Organization and Deduction

Inside the meditation room, three things floated in front of Ian.

The sphere of light on the left contains the complete text of the "Sun and Moon Soul Sacrifice Manual" that he deduced.

On the right is a fist-sized ball of grayish-white light, which is the rule model he deduced in the Star Ruins. In the middle is a blank crystal, waiting for him to fill it.

The "Sun and Moon Soul Sacrifice Manual" is no longer of any use. Azshara herself hasn't even reached level seven, so she doesn't know what lies ahead.

He learned a lot of advanced knowledge in the White Tower world, but not a specific meditation method, which was intentionally done by his teacher.

Because the meditation methods of the True Spirit Realm are extremely special and all bear a distinct personal imprint, learning these meditation methods is simply copying someone else's old path, with a very low success rate.

"I am different from others; I follow an extremely unique path of chaotic celestial bodies. Even if you gave it to me, it wouldn't be of much reference value."

His journey was relatively normal from the beginning with the Star and Moon Meditation Method, but it became very different from other wizards when he condensed a blazing star core.

Then came the dual-core system of the sun and moon, and now the simplified stellar core.

His path of rules has evolved from rules of gravity, thermal energy, and purification to the current chaotic celestial bodies, where there are no longer any reference points.

After level six, each level is a completely new step. There are no ready-made examples to refer to, so you have to deduce it yourself.

Deducing the True Spirit Meditation Method is like drawing the blueprints of an entire building on an empty lot; the difficulty is immeasurably greater than deducing the Moon Goddess Manual.

Ian closed his eyes, his consciousness sinking into the sea of ​​his mind.

The surface of the star's core is covered with a complex network of rules, each extending deep into the crystal and converging into an infinitely collapsing origin.

This is his current state; he is merely a white dwarf.

According to knowledge from my previous life, white dwarfs are the product of the death of stars; nuclear fusion has ceased, radiation pressure has disappeared, and gravity has become absolutely dominant.

If its mass is not replenished, it will slowly dim over countless years and eventually become a black dwarf.

This is not the path he wants to take; what he needs is to continue collapsing.

Once the mass of a white dwarf exceeds the Chandrasekhar limit, the electron decompression will be overwhelmed.

The star nucleus will break through the critical point in an instant and collapse inward infinitely, with electrons being forced into the atomic nucleus and combining with protons to form neutrons.

The entire star core would transform into a neutron star composed of neutron degenerate matter, with its radius compressed to only a few dozen kilometers and its density increasing dramatically from several tons per cubic centimeter to hundreds of millions of tons.

The gravity is so strong that even light is bent into a parabola. If it can achieve this, it is at least in the late stage of level six, also known as the neutron star state.

But that's not enough. If the neutron star collapses further, it will break through the limit of neutron decompression.

At this point, no known physical force can resist gravity, and the star's core will collapse infinitely into a singularity.

Once the field of vision is truly formed, even light cannot escape. This should be the form of a level seven true spirit, a complete black hole.

Ian currently needs to fill the star core with high-quality energy, which is the "mass" of the star core.

When he fills the energy enough to trigger a degenerate state, the star's core will naturally collapse into a neutron star.

But his white dwarf is too big. Even if he fills it with super-energy crystals, it would still be an astronomical number to break through to become a neutron star.

Once it reaches the neutron star state, simply filling it with energy is not enough to break through, since it is not a true neutron star; it still needs to comprehend the rules.

All his rules are crammed into a single star core, with no priority or distinction between them.

Every part is functioning, but there is no "central hub" to coordinate and manage it.

He needs a new framework, not the singular framework of the previous Luna Codex, but a multi-rule symbiotic framework suitable for the Path of Celestial Bodies.

The star system gave him great inspiration. Stars are at the center, planets orbit around them, and satellites orbit the planets in turn, nested in layers, each with its own orbit, yet all belonging to the same gravitational system.

Gravity is everywhere, while the underlying core of thermal energy follows the entropy increase rule under the conservation of energy.

Once you fully grasp these two fundamental rules, you can integrate all other rules.

He first went through all the knowledge he had in his mind, especially his previous life's explanation of gravity.

The greater the mass of a celestial body, the stronger its ability to bend spacetime. Light will be deflected when it passes through a massive celestial body, and time will slow down in a high gravitational field.

In extreme states, such as black holes, spacetime is warped into a closed loop, and the topological structure of spacetime itself changes.

This is the ultimate form of the law of gravity: the absolute horizon.

Inside the absolute horizon, space is curved into a closed trap, with all forward directions pointing towards the singularity.

No matter how fast you accelerate or which direction you fly, your future has only one destination: falling into the singularity.

It's not gravity pulling you away; it's the geometry of space itself that determines that the "outside" direction doesn't exist.

But what about the thermal energy rule? It cannot be simply viewed as a change in temperature.

The core of thermal energy is entropy increase, and entropy, simply put, is the degree to which energy is unavailable.

Energy itself is conserved and will not disappear out of thin air, but it can change from a state where it can be used to do work to a state where it cannot be used to do work.

A cup of hot water, once cooled, still retains its energy, but it can no longer be used to heat other things.

This process from order to disorder is called entropy increase, and the energy flow of the entire universe follows this direction.

If Ian's thermal energy rules are further broken through, it will not only be about heating up and cooling down, but about controlling the direction and rate of entropy increase.

This allows the energy within the enemy's body to dissipate naturally, preventing it from gathering, and causing the structure of rules to shift from order to chaos.

It can even reverse entropy increase in local areas, reverse the disorder in chaos, and bring energy back to a usable state.

This perfectly echoes his previous deduction of the ultimate form of the law of gravity: the "absolute horizon".

Gravity is responsible for sealing off spacetime, while entropy increase is responsible for dismantling the enemy's rule-based energy.

If Ian fully masters this combination of rules when he breaks through to level seven, he will no longer be just a combat wizard, but a rule-maker who touches the underlying logic of the void.

Once these two main rules are established, the other rules become much easier to manage.

Purification is "clearing up rule misalignments," which essentially means combating entropy increase and maintaining order within a local area.

Time and gravity are linked, forming a unified dimension of spacetime. The Earth is a manifestation of gravity on a small scale, and planetary ecology itself is a system of balance between gravity and thermal energy.

There are also dream rules, which are the movement of consciousness in a low-rule resistance environment, and are naturally close to the "disorder" of entropy increase.

All the rules now function within the framework of gravity and entropy increase, no longer chaotic.

If you specialize in any one of these rules, each one can lead to level seven on its own.

But Ian is different. The combination of gravity and heat, the balance between order and chaos, and the symbiosis between rules—this is the path he must take.

Ian opened his eyes and made a sweeping motion in the air with his right hand.

Countless threads of various colors extend from the palm of the hand, weaving into a three-dimensional network in front of you.

At the very center of the network, where the rules are most densely interwoven, there is a tiny blank area.

All the rules were there, creating a state of mutual respect, where no one could occupy the center.

What he needs is not just a central hub, but a symbiotic framework that allows all rules to retain their own characteristics.

Ian tapped his finger on the 3D network, and gravity and thermal energy were separated, filling the empty areas.

The entire network of rules trembled violently, and at its center, a gray-white mass slowly emerged, with chaos taking over the center.

Deep within the core of the stellar planet, the origin trembled slightly, and all the regular threads simultaneously changed direction, beginning to converge inward.

Every rule has found its place at the origin of the star core.

Gravity and thermal energy are located at the center, purification, dreams, distortion, and corrosion are intertwined in the middle circle, time runs through all orbits, and other rules condense into nodes in the outermost circle.

All orbits do not intersect, but their gravitational fields superimpose at the origin, forming an extremely complex yet stable equilibrium system.

Just then, a line of text appeared in the corner of his eye:

[Unknown Advanced Meditation Method: To be improved]

[Creator: Ian Marcus]

[Basic Framework: Using the laws of gravity as the spacetime skeleton and the laws of thermal energy as the core, a multi-orbit symbiotic equilibrium system is constructed.]

[Future directions: 1. Absolute horizon, 2. Entropy increase]

Ian felt a slight jolt in his soul, and an unprecedented sense of ease washed over him.

Like a room full of clutter that has finally been cleaned up, with everything in its proper place.

The density of the degenerate star core remained unchanged, but the efficiency of its regular operation increased significantly.

Previously, when one rule was activated, the other five would create invisible resistance. Now, each rule has its own dedicated track, does not interfere with each other, and can instantly coordinate under the coordination of the chaotic origin.

He opened his eyes, and the blank crystal in front of him was no longer blank; inside, an extremely complex multi-track three-dimensional network was slowly rotating.

"The framework is complete." Ian put away the crystal.

"What needs to be done next is to understand the rules of gravity and thermal energy and fill the energy."

Having completed the construction of the meditation method, he felt a sudden sense of relief and went to the courtyard.

"Ian, what were you doing?"

Ian's lips curled up slightly. "I've figured some things out."

"Huh?" Gaga tilted her head, seeing that Ian seemed to be in a good mood, and inexplicably became happy as well.

Gaa wagged its tail but didn't ask any more questions.

In the afternoon, a soft chirping sound came from the sky above Silvermoon Highlands, indicating that an external teleportation array was requesting access.

Ian looked up, and a teleportation beam lit up the plaza. When the beam faded, a group of people were revealed.

Leading the group was Aurelia, dressed in a deep blue star-patterned robe, with a face as white as the moon and an air of elegance and wisdom.

Behind her were two fourth-level Morning Star wizards, and behind them were several third-level wizards.

Aurelia sensed Ian's gaze, looked up, paused slightly, and a hint of shock flashed in her eyes.

The last time she saw Ian was at the Moonlight Hall in Silvermoon Highlands, when Ian was still a Level 4 Morning Star.

He now stood alone in the center of the square, without a single attendant by his side.

But that aura made her soul tremble slightly.

Aurelia showed no sign of distress. She stopped three steps in front of Ian and bowed slightly.

This is a formal courtesy to the Sun Throne, not only to show respect but also as part of the alliance's rules.

"Lord Ian Marcus, the Supreme Alliance Council has come to formally confirm your advancement to the sixth level, Sunburst."

After bowing, she straightened up and said, "On behalf of the Alliance, I have come to discuss with you the registration of the Throne of the Sun."

Ian nodded. "Aurelia, we meet again. Come to my Mount Luna."

He then turned around and led everyone to Luna Peak.
