The Gap

My understanding of the Freedom Rule is beginning to overflow...

Her own understanding of the Freedom Rule, combined with the understanding of the Freedom God King of Freedom Rule, has reached the peak level of God King-level comprehension, like a dazzling sea of stars, profound and vast.

In addition, Yun Xi also absorbed the attribute points of the Freedom God King. Those powerful attribute forces surged within her body, constantly strengthening her foundation.

However, she cannot yet control the divine status of the Freedom God King.

During Yun Xi's process of devouring the Freedom God King, the Freedom God King's soul remained silent, watching the power accumulated over countless years gradually disappear. It was impossible for him not to feel sad.

... His eyes were filled with complex emotions, including reluctance, helplessness, and a sense of relief.

Every bit of strength that disappeared felt like a piece of flesh being cut from his heart—a strength he had painstakingly accumulated through countless struggles and sacrifices for his country.

But considering his impending demise, his current situation is perhaps a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

At least, his soul was preserved, and there is still hope that it can be restored to its original state and regain its newness.

Although it lost most of its power and accumulated strength, it was still better than complete annihilation, disappearing into the vast universe without leaving a trace.

The Freedom God King sighed silently in his heart, trying to accept this huge change and disparity.

He had witnessed many god-kings fall into slumber or die after their lifespans were exhausted, and he had seen countless gods perish in the long river of history... Those once glorious beings eventually faded away in the torrent of time, becoming legends and memories.

I thought I would also die under this merciless fate, and be reincarnated, losing myself in that chaotic unknown, forgetting everything from the past.

However, with Yun Xi's 'help,' his soul was preserved intact, which means that his Soul Origin can still support him in finding a way to restore it.

Even without experience points and the immense power he once possessed, being able to retain his memories was already a great stroke of luck. This was far better than the fate he had anticipated: being reincarnated without any memories.

Those memories are proof of his existence, precious treasures of his past. As long as those memories remain, he has hope that, through his Soul Origin and unwavering will, he can one day find an opportunity to rise again...

On second thought, if Ru Kuan took Yun Xi's devouring as his way of thanking Yun Xi, he would feel much better.

After all, the Origin Strange Energy is almost impossible to purify, but Yun Xi actually managed to do so, which made him consider more...

Of course, he can no longer harbor ill intentions towards Yun Xi, because under the constraints of the system, no one can exploit loopholes. From now on, he can no longer do anything detrimental to Yun Xi.

The system rules were like an insurmountable barrier, firmly sealing all his evil thoughts deep in his heart. Even the slightest bit of malice would be immediately punished by the system.

Even he could only obediently follow the rules and face Yun Xi and his future with a completely new attitude.

After everything settled down, an unknown amount of time had passed—perhaps ten years, perhaps a whole year...

Time slips away silently, like a quietly flowing river, leaving no obvious trace. The surrounding environment may have experienced countless seasonal changes, spring flowers and autumn moon, summer rain and winter snow, endlessly repeating themselves.

The Freedom God King, seated cross-legged before Yun Xi.

The divine body that once radiated boundless divine power has transformed into a silent statue, devoid of life and vitality. The light on its body has gradually dimmed, and the once clear lines have become blurred, as if eroded by the sands of time. The mysterious aura that once surrounded it has also vanished without a trace, leaving only an emptiness and silence.

Yun Xi gazed silently at the body of the deceased deity, a complex mix of emotions welling up within her. She knew that this marked the end of an era and the conclusion of a legend.

Yun Xi's face remained calm and still, her eyes showing no emotion whatsoever. In her heart, she felt no pity or sympathy whatsoever for the Freedom God King's ordeal.

Because all these consequences were brought upon the Freedom God King by himself.

If he hadn't intended to possess her, Yun Xi wouldn't have devoured her so ruthlessly, even if she were to do so.

The body of the Freedom God King died, and Yun Xi's strength changed beyond ordinary levels.

Her understanding of the Freedom Rule far surpasses that of the Destiny Rules and the Light Rule.

In a certain moment, her thoughts, like a bird spreading its wings, soared through layers of mist and touched the deepest part of the Freedom Rule.

Her understanding of the Freedom Rule is no longer a superficial perception, but a resonance originating from the depths of her soul. Every subtle insight is like a brilliant star, converging into a vast galaxy within her inner world.

Compared to the tortuous and circuitous Destiny Rules and the fiery and pure Light Rule, her new understanding of the Freedom Rule seems slightly inferior.

The soul of the Freedom God King, having fully rested and integrated, quietly departed sometime later.

It caused no ripples and left no obvious trace.

Only she and the other party had a system contract, and their interactions were still vague and intertwined.

As for the fact that the Freedom God King learned that she possessed the means to purify strange powers, it stemmed from the system contract between her and the other party. The Freedom God King could not reveal this, otherwise, facing him would be the price of breaking the contract—his soul would dissipate.

The Freedom God King was a ruthless person who would do anything to keep his soul alive. Yun Xi didn't believe he would reveal her ability to use the Light Purification Technique as revenge. After all, that would be a violation of the system's contract.

He would stop at nothing to survive, and he would also remain silent under the immense threat of the system contract.

Seeing that the strange energy pollution on the core of the domain was relatively stable, Yun Xi withdrew her gaze, did not get up and go out, and planned to continue her seclusion here. She had already made up her mind to continue to break through her divine level.

She slowly adjusted her breathing, gradually calming her mind, preparing to devote herself wholeheartedly to cultivation.

In this tranquil space, Yun Xi abandoned all external disturbances and distractions, focusing all her energy on the outside world.
