Chapter 2487: Chapter 2482: A Welcome Loss

Engraving Wisdom.

Just said there was no extra commotion on the ship, and here it comes?

This type of experience has become quite familiar to Fu Qian. Angels, jellyfish, falling points... it’s all but a fleeting dream, and now he’s awake.

As for how it felt, I must say—it was wonderful.

A void? Where’s the void? The experiences just now were exceedingly rich.

Wasn’t it precisely for this moment that I chose to consume that Divine Blood and Flesh?

Risking some negative effects to embellish the journey to the Sea of Ashes and gather the maximum amount of information.

Even if it doesn’t matter whether it’s real or not.

Based on previous experiences, this historical error’s cross-temporal convergence is extremely unrestrained, making credibility a real issue.

But that’s okay, even falsehoods can have meaning.

Not to mention it seemed like a pure spectacle, tearing, wounds, deformation, that instant has completely ceased to exist.

Even the duration of the Burial Scroll seemed not to have been consumed—wait, perhaps it’s not so pure.

In a series of self-inspections, Fu Qian quickly realized that not everything returned to the starting point.

With Extraordinary Perception, one can check the remaining SAN Points at any time.

points.

The number is still considerable, but Fu Qian remembers clearly that after returning from the Unseen Hillock last time, the total SAN Points should have been 234, a loss of nearly 40 points.

Nothing else changed, except for the loss at the "falling point," which came back entirely without any discount?

What about the gains from two whole instances—it’s truly—

Wonderful!

...

The loss is real; wouldn’t that mean the reality of those visions increases as well?

Of course, Fu Qian wouldn’t engage in the boring action of self-deception; losses don’t matter, as long as there’s valuable gain.

And those 38 SAN Points, in his opinion, are very worthwhile.

Conclusion one: Within Engraving Wisdom, it is possible to lose SAN Points, and it does not necessarily mean you can awaken suddenly.

Conclusion two: Compared to losing SAN Points, taking action yourself seems to break Engraving Wisdom more easily.

For those Stars Association members who aren’t very honest, there’s a reason to have such a good temperament all along the way.

Anything not yet proven to be true might just be false.

The moment the vast ruins appear, along with the assumption that it’s a reaction from Inspiration overflowing, Fu Qian considers Engraving Wisdom’s activation as an equally undeniable possibility.

With the subsequent encounters being overly splendid, Fu Qian also hopes to remain relatively conservative in his actions, being careful not to cause any bump that might prematurely end everything.

In truth, caution proved correct; the end of Engraving Wisdom seemed to stem from his reverse gaze startling the Stars Association members.

Had he reacted earlier, he probably wouldn’t have the chance to reach the falling point.

And conclusion three, possibly related directly to the falling point.

A location where the Abandonment King rapidly loses SAN Points, its concept, which has already been discussed, is incredibly exaggerated.

And now the loss has even carried over outside, undoubtedly continuing the exaggeration.

This extends to concepts triggered by the falling point, such as the Sea of Ashes origin, connections to the concept of outsiders, reasons for SAN Points loss, and why even the true Superior Beings cannot be immune...

These numerous issues will become the focus of the upcoming exploration of the Sea of Ashes.

Given such rich gains, what are thirty-something SAN Points in the end?

Not to mention they even allowed a fleeting life to linger a few more seconds through this moment.

Fu Qian looked down, glancing briefly at his mode of transportation.

Yet this giant creature of the Sea of Ashes did not reveal any ferocious appearance this time.

Even with its skull pried open, it raised no extra fins to aim, continuing to obediently escort the Tyrant’s presence.

"To live two lives, indeed a rare blessing."

Fu Qian let out a sigh of admiration as the lines of blood extending from his feet quickly retracted from the giant body.

After granting it freedom again, he wasted no time and took a step toward the vast ashes.

The clue appeared directly at hand, but was this coincidence merely an illusion?

No time for regrets; next is to continue the previous plan, using the precious time of the Burial Scroll to explore the previously marked areas thoroughly.

...

Indeed, the grand opening often fails to sustain.

A moment later, Fu Qian stood quietly on a small floating island, contemplating life.

Nothingness, this floating island is undoubtedly one of the most common types in the Sea of Ashes, without a trace of vitality, let alone a talking jellyfish.

Throughout the entire duration of the Burial Scroll’s effect, exploring the marked regions, this turns out to be the most special place.

Peak at the start, encounters within Engraving Wisdom have evidently been the greatest harvest since the Scroll’s activation.

Ruins, Angels, falling points were all unseen... even the Stars Association overhead remained a dead silence throughout, not even a blink of light.

Including some old acquaintances.

Such unique action didn’t attract any familiar gaze, such as Lord Rainbow of Radiance.

Apart from interfering with his actions last time, it’s almost certain Goto Hi’s predecessor came here to sabotage the mermaids, also under his inducement.

Regarding the Sea of Ashes, Lord Rainbow of Radiance clearly seemed well-informed.

Yet, completely vanished now.

Frightened by the Tyrant’s might?

Understandable, but after several encounters, especially the dialogue in the Night Holy City, wasn’t he relatively open for communication?

Or is he so afraid that apart from within the instance, he doesn’t dare show himself elsewhere?

Besides the less than ideal exploration results, this part also doesn’t provide a clear reason.

But regardless, this sort of cold war coupled with the genuine surrounding silence is an extreme form of solitude.

For a player like himself, who’s not too restricted by time and space, it’s manageable.

If the jellyfish representing the Stargazers were truly active here, what would they feel when gazing at the stars from the darkness?

...

It’s also a form of alternative self-isolation, giving rise to Wisdom of the Divine is natural.

Imagining scenes of humans once seeking wisdom, Fu Qian even attempted a Thinker’s pose.

Besides empathizing with the ancients, the main content of his thoughts is still rooted in the present.

With no gains under the current coordinates, what’s the next step?

Were Ji Feng’s brother’s messages and images fraudulent? Is there a way to verify?

The situation seems a bit directionless—although it isn’t entirely so; a certain method has always been in front of him.

Couldn’t find the falling point, then just create one?

No need to rigidly fall from the sky, just take its essence and discard its form. Activate the Brilliant Tyrant to stir the waters, isn’t that another form of chaos source?
