Chapter 1241: Chapter 1242: Endless Astrology Chart

"A small gathering place?"

After traversing the peculiar Maggie’s Fantasy World, Green galloped across the Dimensional Esophagus Bone Continent, avoiding the invisible Temporal Fault, flying in the direction pointed by the Scepter of Hope.

Along the way, Green was drawn to a faint beam of light gathered by a skeletal tower.

If not for the keen insight of the Face of Truth, Green might have missed this inconspicuous small building.

"This rule... Astrology Tower!"

Green keenly sensed the extraordinary energy rule converged on this small tower, which was surprisingly the unique energy fluctuation of the Starcaller World he once invaded before the war of civilization.

However, compared to the weak Astrologers Green had seen before, the scale of starlight power presented here far exceeded them.

Yet, even so, in Green’s eyes at the moment, it was merely a faint light, not worth mentioning compared to the Fifth to Seventh Peak Master levels in the Convergence Grounds of the Piercing Gate previously.

"Could it be that guy?"

Green suddenly thought of a legendary existence in the Starcaller World, a figure revered by other Astrologers whom he had never met.

If it truly was him, this Astrologer possessed such a degree of strength that had he been present during the invasion of the Starcaller World, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

With this thought, Green could no longer suppress his curiosity and moved closer to the bone tower, only a few dozen meters high.

In the Dimensional Esophagus, Green had no need to hide anything, during his approach, a starry light phantom gradually gathered atop the skeletal tower, watching the silhouette in the light-dark intertwining black hole intensely.

Trying to appear harmless, the starry light phantom spoke proudly, "Great unknown being, I wonder what service I can offer you, or what you desire, this Astrology Tower is merely my dwelling, with no value."

The soft starlight, this humanoid phantom seemed to possess great wisdom.

"Are you the Gemini Stars from the Starcaller World?"

From within the black hole of light and dark, Green’s willful voice emerged.

In the past, when Green and other Stigma Sorcerers like the Wandering Dandelion and Flame Holy Grail invaded the Starcaller World, a great Astrologer, named Gemini Stars, was rumored to exist.

After the invasion, Green personally traveled to the Gemini Astrological Tower, discovering footprints on the starry sky map at its top, leading to his conclusion that the legendary powerful Astrologer was attempting to communicate with some formidable beings or phenomena within the Superconductive Chrono, only to trap himself there.

It now seemed Green’s guess was correct, though he hadn’t anticipated the Astrologer would come to the Dimensional Esophagus!

And yet, had not been digested.

"Who... who are you?"

The starry light phantom was incredulous, shocked to be called by name by such a terrifying entity as one in the Dimensional Esophagus.

"Heh, once in your world, an Astrologer unintentionally communicated with me briefly, his ability was quite interesting, as he sought your traces, let me remember his name... Ah, Qianqi!"

Green wove this lie effortlessly.

Though the Astrology Tower was walled off by a layer of starlight, making it impossible for Green to perceive its interior, Green understood well that all Astrologers would be extremely vulnerable once they left their towers, even this Gemini Stars reputed as a legend.

What’s more, at that moment, the powers before Green were utterly meaningless.

More importantly, Green could clearly sense that the soul of this Gemini Stars was already like a flickering candlelight, eventually unable to evade the fate of being digested by the Dimensional Esophagus.

"Qianqi?"

Upon hearing this name, all of the Gemini Stars’ wariness of Green vanished, even though that wariness was inherently pointless.

"May I know your name, esteemed one, for such a powerful entity as yourself, even though I’ve been trapped here for several eras, I’ve only met two others like you."

As he spoke, the Gemini Stars phantom made an inviting gesture, opening the light curtain of the skeletal tower.

Several eras!

Had the distortion of time twisted things to this extent?

Moreover, two entities of such strength as his had appeared here previously in succession, truly making the Dimensional Esophagus a place of profound fear within the Deep Illusionary Worlds.

"Annihilation Force."

Green concealed his Sorcerer name, not revealing his true identity, finding no need to engage in further contention with someone who would soon be digested.

Also, being a wise and learned life form, trapped in the Dimensional Esophagus for several eras, it should have its unique insights on the esophagus, for it hadn’t like Green, had the Coffin of Hope as a final escape, thus after reaching the Piercing Gate, took no other action.

This Gemini Stars had likely traveled in the Dimensional Esophagus for a long time.

...

At the top of the Astrology Tower.

The withered body gathered starlight power with a wave of its hand, the Gemini Stars revealed a gratifying smile.

"Didn’t expect to meet a friend like you at life’s end. It’s surprising Qianqi could communicate with such a great being as yourself, suggesting the Starcaller World, without my presence, still flourishes beautifully."

Green did not respond, he only tilted his head, gazing at the magnificent star divining map atop the Astrology Tower, wherein Green clearly saw the Piercing Gate mark.

The entire starry sky map was spindle-shaped, a conceptual diagram of inferred data speculation, essentially small life forms’ theory on the structure of the Endless World, their outlook, and their idealized hypotheses.

Within the star map, the expansion of space and the passage of time were the two principal axes, the two curves of the spindle represented the structure of the Dimensional Esophagus, surrounding the principal axes, forming a closed spindle shape.

While not knowledgeable about Astrologers, Green nonetheless recognized that the map contained a unique understanding of the Endless World from a different civilization, involving a broader knowledge system.

Indeed!

The Astrologers tried to use their unique powers to communicate with the vast, endless world, with bizarre creatures and even other civilizations occasionally appearing briefly in that world.

From this, it was evident that they were a more idealistic biological community rather than the Sorcerer’s practicality and functionality.

Seeing Green captivated by his star map, the Gemini Stars smiled proudly, "This is the wisdom crystallization of my lifetime, the Endless Astrology Chart! Following the world’s dissolution and temporal passage, I came here, finding the third path mentioned by those powerful worlds to break through the world’s edge besides the Infinite Microcosm and Void Traverse: the Dimensional Esophagus Deep Illusionary World. Here, the rules of the entire Endless World continually impede our exploration, compressing upon us. We have reached its true edge!"

Infinite Microcosm, Void Traverse, Dimensional Esophagus.

The three paths to break through the ’Endless World Box’?

Undoubtedly, the world’s dissolution’s end was the Convergence Grounds of the Piercing Gate, unexpectedly the Gemini Stars conjectured the Dimensional Esophagus through such an uncanny clue and ventured in fearlessly.

This spirit was remarkably reminiscent of the Sorcerers.

In pursuit of unknown knowledge, in pursuit of the Truth Mystery, exploring illusion and darkness recklessly, that was the source of a Sorcerer’s joyful excitement, fulfilling and elevating the soul!

Unlike the Astrologers who record their knowledge and thoughts within an astrology chart, Sorcerers pass down an unformed framework through summarizing rules.

"Such wonders, may I make a copy of this astrology chart?"

Green asked humbly, out of respect for knowledge.

"No, no, Annihilation Force, I will give it to you, thank fate for arranging that I meet a friend of the Astrologers in the last moments of my life."

The Gemini Stars extended a bony, withered arm, above his head, myriad starlights gathered into a crystal, condensed at his fingertip, floating towards Green.

Contained within was knowledge of the Endless World’s speculative understanding, the power of the Endless World Box’s conjecture, the foundational cognition for forming the great world sphere, for Grimm’s Fairy Tales!
