"I might also be an Echo."
Ian signaled Yisen and Sio to rest aside as he wanted some quiet time alone, then sat beside the dark golden dragon body, pondering this question.
The heat released by the dragon began to gradually decrease, the boiling hot water started to cool down again in the Ice Dragon's Nest, and the short-lived turmoil in the white-haired boy's mind also slowly calmed.
"My Heart Light Body's Guiding Star can send various data and information to my parallel world self."
"When I am about to die, I can transmit a part of my memory, skills, and mental model to the next 'Ian'."
"In a certain sense, this is creating my own 'Mirror' or 'Echo'."
"With this, a question worth pondering arises."
"Am I the previous 'Ian' with the Guiding Star Heart Light Body, a 'Mirror' or 'Echo' created by transmitting information after failure?"
"As it stands, I indeed am."
"Moreover, this cycle of mirrors and echoes has likely continued many times."
