Cheng Shi was completely at a loss when it came to the Nose of Discernment, and had no way to deal with the Gaze of Mockery.
He silently put away all the Masked Features, then took out the Vessel of Annihilation that Herobas had reluctantly given him.
To be honest, the vessel's shape was beyond Cheng Shi's expectations. It did not keep collapsing and disintegrating like the Eye of Annihilation. Instead, one half was violently destroyed while the scattered ashes gathered on the other half, forming a brand-new half-hourglass.
Once the half that was being destroyed vanished completely, the newly formed half began its own destruction again. This cycle repeated endlessly, with creation and destruction alternating.
From the changes in the vessel's appearance, it was not difficult to see that Annihilation truly possessed the will to bring new life to the universe. Unfortunately, in the eyes of the Source, what came after Sinking was not the new world Annihilation expected to rule, but a new era and civilization led by Order.
Cheng Shi kept sensing the aura radiating from the Vessel of Annihilation. He found the "hope" erupting amid destruction and creation unexpectedly captivating. On a sudden whim, he thought: since Annihilation could "shape" new life, if he gave it a tool that could be used for "shaping," could it truly shape a "world"?
Just as the Stage Play Ball could reproduce a corner of the world, perhaps the Vessel of Annihilation could reproduce even more?
Driven by this thought, he pondered for a moment before taking out a god-level item he had never used before: the Truth Ritual!
The Truth Ritual could disassemble the truth of all things and reconstruct everything with the power of truth. The Vessel of Annihilation, meanwhile, possessed the power to bring forth new life.
