The great Prophecy of the Prophecy Faction was shaken to his core, feeling the tremor of Fate in that instant, and fell into eternal Ethereal.

[God] are not bound by Mortal World Prophecies, nor are Prophecy by Mortal World Prophecy.

But this time, Fate was too vast and overwhelming, sweeping across the entire Long River of Fate, forcibly tearing apart all shackles, and washing away all the Prophecy.

A top Prophecy of the era instantly fell into eternal Ethereal, his body frozen in place.

Her eyes Godless, and she was muttering to herself:

"He gave up his life according to His will and lay down in the dark tomb. The cords of death bind all mankind, because all are bowed down to sin; but He alone was unstained by sin, and Hades has no Authority to hold the saint, nor can decay come upon Him."

"No one can take His life; He gave it up willingly. He has the Authority to take it back. Thus, God releases Him from all the pain of death, He breaks free from the bonds of the grave, awakens from His slumber, and holds the keys to death and Hades, living forever and ever."

The powerful figure standing nearby, witnessing her downfall, couldn't help but panic.

"What the hell? How dare you spy on Him? Are you getting your comeuppance for not wearing underwear?"

The great Prophecy remained unresponsive, completely oblivious to all external noises, continuing his mechanical murmur, his voice ethereal and otherworldly. "

Resurrection and life reside in Him. He willingly relinquished the breath of his flesh, resting peacefully in the tomb. Life is His own, something He possessed from birth, requiring no external awakening. In due time, He will reclaim His life, awaken from His slumber, and retain His eternal and Immortality form...

"The New Life Gods will Ignite the Divine Fire, exalt the Divine Kingdom, awaken from the rift between illusion and reality, fueled by the obsessions of Mortal World beings, crowned by the silence of the eternal night..."

Those around them were horrified.

The great Prophecy's final words were Prophecy on the very first day of the extraterrestrial beings' arrival.

Although great Prophecy are usually unreliable, the powerful beings all believe that this may indicate the arrival of extraterrestrial beings who are proficient in faith.

But now, listening to the words she's repeating...

"His death, His Resurrection, living forever and ever, the New Life God..."

The onlookers' expressions turned grim.

"[The God] is dead? [The God] Resurrection again?"

The great Prophecy had long lost her senses of the outside world, and even if someone were to do whatever they wanted to her now, she would not waver in the slightest and would continue to mutter those words.

Finally, before she breathed her last, she uttered her last words:

"He is not Him..."

The Floating Continent, [Hemonia].

That sacred realm, suspended in the high celestial plane, is now nothing but desolation; its sanctity is gone, and the world calls it—[The Fallen Divine Kingdom].

Fully armed, Yun Xiaoxiao followed the Xiao Xiao Luo Legion into the fray, her expression one of resignation to her fate.

After all, [the Fallen Divine Kingdom] is truly dangerous.

Logically speaking, even if the small Xiao Xiao Luo entered earlier to explore didn't find much information, they should have been able to retreat easily, thanks to the Demon Network and Dreamscape transmission network.

Even in the worst-case scenario where they cannot return, they should still be able to transmit some information back.

But what's worse than the worst situation is: having nothing at all.

The Fallen Divine Kingdom seemed completely isolated from the outside world; once entered, there was no further contact.

Yun Xiaoxiao entered with the resolve to die; she even suspected that Su Luo had sent her here to her death because he saw that her progress in strength was lagging behind his.

"Sigh, I originally thought it was to prepare for old age, but I never expected it to turn out like this."

Before she left, she presented Su Luo with a memorial:

Su Luo had Vassal named Yun Xiaoxiao, who gradually became sluggish and unable to keep up with Su Luo's pace. Su Luo grew tired of him and wanted to abandon him.

Xiao Luo remonstrated, saying, "Yun Xiaoxiao has been diligent and conscientious all her life. How can we abandon her because of her incompetence? That would be ungrateful."

Su Luo refused and sent Yun Xiaoxiao to be given to someone else as livestock.

Xiao Luo followed suit, took this method of handling the situation, memorized it, and returned home.

Su Luo asked, "Why have you followed me here?"

Xiao Luo said, "If you grow old and become useless in the future, I will not need to devise new strategies, which is why I have already adopted this method."

Su Luo felt ashamed and remorseful, so she welcomed Yun Xiaoxiao back and treated her kindly.

Su Luo ignored her.

"The problem is that Su Luo won't be useless. Xiao Luo is Su Luo, and in the end, I'm the only external controller."

With a sense of melancholy, Yun Xiaoxiao followed the footsteps of the Xiao Xiao Luo Legion and stepped into the Fallen Divine Kingdom.

Then, everything went black, and she briefly lost consciousness.

The [Divine Kingdom] itself is a small plane suspended in the sky.

Similar to this smaller plane, there are also the Dragon Valley of the Dragon Clan, and the Realm Left Behind by the World of the Ancient Elf Kingdom...

Everyone believed that the minor plane was the minor plane, and the Demon Realm was the Demon Realm.

However, according to the theories published by Scholars, these all belong to the Parallel Layers that are attached to the Base Space, and they have the same principles and structure.

So, what is the space of the Divine Kingdom like?

When Yun Xiaoxiao opened her eyes again, the vast and mighty Xiao Xiao Luo Legion beside her had completely vanished without a trace.

There were no sacred, dilapidated temple ruins or crumbling Divine Kingdoms in sight, only a dense sea of people stretching to the horizon.

High in the distant sky, a setting sun slowly sank, its crimson afterglow gradually swallowed by darkness. As the light faded, twilight enveloped the earth.

The densely packed crowd raised their hands, holding up their Burn torches.

Thousands of firewood were lit, dispelling the rising darkness, and the flickering firelight shone on Yun Xiaoxiao's face.

"No power, no energy, no program... I am now merely a being of pure consciousness, my body and soul stripped away?!"

Yun Xiaoxiao was shocked; she now understood why the creatures that had entered earlier were unable to send messages outward.

Their physical bodies and souls were completely stripped away Sealing, turning them into lambs to the slaughter!

The moment I entered the [Fallen Divine Kingdom], I was immediately stripped of my consciousness and lost all autonomy. It's hard to imagine what kind of monster this is.

"Judgment! Judgment! Judgment!"

An endless sea of people held torches high, shouting in unison, their powerful voices shaking heaven and earth, the sounds of Judgment echoing in layers, never ceasing.

Only then did Yun Xiaoxiao get a clear view of her surroundings.

She was tightly bound with rough, heavy, old hemp ropes and fixed to a towering wooden execution platform.

Beneath the execution platform, layers upon layers of dry, flammable firewood were piled up, forming the most primitive and cruel form of burning at the stake.

Judgment? Burning at the stake?

The strange sights reminded Yun Xiaoxiao of all sorts of religious and artistic practices.

"A new world! A new world! A new world!"

Shouts followed closely behind, filled with extreme fervor and piety, permeating the entire Divine Kingdom realm.

As the setting sun sank completely into the horizon and night fell over the surrounding area, countless torches stretched for thousands of miles, illuminating the dark world as bright as day.

Dozens of meters to the left and right, countless identical wooden execution platforms are neatly arranged, one after another, stretching to the horizon.
