"In the end, it's nothing more than an echo from 1,600 years ago."
To be honest, the echo's words, with messages about the Star God, the Demon of the Abyss, and the bleak future of this universe, indeed left Ian profoundly shocked.
However, there's one point that Ian never believed from the start, which led him to doubt the authenticity of the information from the echo.
And that is 'The Star God is dead.'
The Star God can't be dead. This is the point Ian is most certain about.
No matter what the essence of the Star God's life is, they are super beings strong enough to create the 'Great Aether Circulation' that spans space and time, their creations, the 'Ether System' capable of rewriting the universe's rules, are still functioning well enough to be used by all life forms, how can they possibly be dead?
The Aether is the Star God's weapon, knowledge base, means of transportation, work method... It can even be said that the Aether is a part of the Star God!
