As the Stardust Train sailed along the quantum pathways of the Symbiotic Universe, the infinite-faced polyhedron totem in Arui's palm suddenly spun in reverse—its golden lines contracting like time running backward, revealing a shattered hourglass of creation at its core. Ice Drip's warning glow pulsed in a counter-flowing spiral, sketching retrogressive ripples of spacetime across the star map: "Retrogression anomaly detected! Deep within the quantum foam of the Symbiotic Universe, a counter-current of energy is forcing civilization memory backward to its initial state."
Outside the portholes, the trajectories of the stars began to flicker in reverse, the Milky Way's spiral arms disassembling and reassembling like a rewound recording. Ory's Photon Harp String emitted a vibration akin to a guqin's harmonics, and the light particles condensing upon the strings revealed the molten Hundun of the War-Pattern clan before their birth, alongside the unaggregated quantum dust of the Spectrum clan's photons. "This force is deconstructing the memory foundation of the Symbiotic Network," his harp string frosting over, "as if trying to reset the symbiotic journey of all civilizations into pre-creation void."
Arui's consciousness was dragged into a chaotic sea of quantum foam, countless memory fragments flying past like shooting stars in reverse. She watched the War-Pattern clan's lava totems peel away into primitive magma, the Spectrum clan's photon network disintegrate into discrete l…
