Chapter 1288 Black Hole In The Spiritual Dimension.
Before him is what appears to be a gravitational whirlpool. It is full of danger and also full of fish. Fish being other souls. It is a veritable display of food to someone who is as starved as him.
"I will have to thank the great mother for her experience at hunting and using the feeding ground when I meet her."
Legion-7 didn't let the excitement of finding a feeding ground override his caution. After all, this feeding ground is a public location. He is not the only one looking to find something to eat. Prey and predator can be switched at any moment.
He examined his environment thoroughly while cautiously approaching the black hole.
"I should be careful. As long as I sense the gravitational force properly and make sure it doesn't exceed my power, I should be fine."
He approached the feeding ground carefully while sensing the force of attraction. What he sensed from the black hole surprised him but also made sense because of the information he got about the cause of the feeding grounds.
The force of attraction is not purely gravitational. He can also sense soul force from it. That hasn't changed his situation much so he remained careful.
He went ahead to map out the zone of safety.
He used the divine echo method to sense the force of attraction. The waves will be distorted by the force of attraction but they will still return to him. This is because the force of attraction is not purely gravitational. The soul force it contains will reflect spiritual fluctuations and divine sense.
The area of the gravitational whirlpool in which his perception is still reflected back to him is the zone of safety. It means the gravitational force of the whirlpool in those places is not strong enough to overcome the strength of his divine sense. Which means he will be able to move relatively well in those places. Hence why he will be safe there.
The zone of safety is always changing so he has to pay constant attention to it. This is because the whirlpool is constantly expanding and growing stronger.
Beyond the zone of safety is the zone of no return. At that point, nothing returns from it. Anything that gets that close to the black hole is gone. The zone of no return forms the dark sphere of the area he can't sense since his divine sense can't return from that part of the whirlpool.
"Now that I have done that. I can eat in peace." He said to himself. "I should also perform more tests."
He decided to perform the test first before dedicating himself to eating. The test won't take long and knowledge is very important. So he extended his divine sense towards the zone of no return from the zone of safety. He is not using the divine echo method. He is using the full power of his divine sense.
His divine sense entered the zone of return as if it entered a sinkhole. He can't pull it out because of the overwhelming force of attraction. But he still got the information they sensed because his divine sense is connected to him and information transfer is instantaneous.
What he saw proved that the black hole was not a true black hole. It doesn't distort space and time around it so he was able to see what it truly was beyond the zone of no return. What he saw was a ring of shattered light.
There are what appear to be shiny rocks in the zone of no return. These rocks are fragments that form the ring of light. They are rotating around in a circle and also moving closer to each other to form a singularity.
The closer they are to each other, the smaller and more complete the shattered ring of light is. It is as if they are trying to join together. This attempt of theirs is fostered by the souls that are sucked into the black hole and shattered into white motes that sprinkle on the shattered rocks.
The white motes nourish the shattered rocks. This makes them shine brighter and brings them closer to each other. He also noticed that the smaller the ring got as the stones got closer to each other, the stronger the force of attraction of the feeding ground became.
The last thing that sealed his theory of the Origin of the black hole is that he sensed law fragments and cosmic energy from the shattered stones. He is very familiar with law fragments and he has encountered cosmic energy many times after comprehending laws so he is sure that the shattered rocks are the fragments of an Origin god.
What he saw made him excited immediately. He said in awe, "The wonders of the void universe never cease to amaze."
"The great mother was right. This is the foundation of the immortality of origin gods."
The great mother couldn't see what lay beyond the zone of no return but she postulated that the black holes are dead Origin gods. She claimed that poor origin gods who haven't made any preparations for resurrection and don't have any Origin essence left come to the spiritual dimension when they die.
The void universe does so to help them resurrect. It pulls the fragmented existence of the Origin gods together. It also causes a gravitational pull that draws soul fragments in the spiritual dimension towards the black hole.
The souls are used to mend the fragmented Origin god. This is a substitute for soul stones that wealthy Origin gods use to speed up their resurrection. The fragmented souls can't compare to soul stones in efficacy since they are from dead entities but it is better than nothing. At least, Origin gods without any form of preparation will still resurrect.
Many don't know about this mechanism. Not even the Origin gods themselves that it is used for. Even the spiritual entities that are conscious and aware in the spiritual dimension don't know what causes black holes. All they know is that black holes create gravitational waves that pull souls to it and create the feeding ground.
