May You and I... Shine Together!

The fighting was fierce on the outer perimeter of the Storm, and the confrontation at the Storm's center was just as intense.

After stepping into this Void, Hu Xuan broke through all obstacles and arrived in front of the Dagger of Stars.

But when she finally saw the "Eternal Day," she realized that she had fallen into a trap.

What's in the middle isn't the plan for the [Eternal Day], but rather...

Zainjil's scheme!

This mad Scholar, this former genius, has not given up on everything he has built, and even now, with his life force almost gone, he is still trying to find a way out of his predicament.

So when he sensed that others in the town were also beginning to steal Divine Authority, he gave away the Divine Authority that he should have kept for himself.

Fish will bite if the bait is fatty enough.

So, Hu Xuan took the bait.

She benefited from her confrontation with the "Eternal Day" and felt that she could devour Him, merge with Divinity, and ascend to heaven in one step.

But all of this was a scam by Zainjil.

He concealed the true Divinity of the Eternal Day, luring Hu Xuan to his side little by little. In order to succeed in one fell swoop, he even stripped away the Divinity he had previously merged with, pretending that the Eternal Day had fallen.

Clearly, this tactic worked.

When Hu Xuan finally stood before the Eternal Day and saw the giant sun radiating an intense and terrifying aura of Birth, she knew she was wrong.

That's completely wrong.

This is False God created by the Scholarly Council using all the resources of the Tower of Reason to gather and bind together Divinity divine essence of [Birth].

Even though He carries the word "false," He also carries the word "god"!

Faced with the gaze of this immense divine source, Hu Xuan couldn't even last a second before falling into the same state as Zainjil.

Her life force was completely drained by the Eternal Day, and her remaining consciousness had to fight against the invasion of Zainjil's consciousness.

This mad Scholar wanted to use his alchemical creation techniques to exchange the consciousness of two people.

Although Hu Xuan's current body is also a corpse, this corpse is less involved with the two False God compared to herself as the "Dagger of Stars".

Therefore, this is a clever way to escape unscathed.

He wanted to use Hu Xuan's body to leave the Dagger of Stars and reappear in the world!

He almost did it.

But at the very last moment, Hu Xuan made a decision that no one could have imagined or dared to make.

She!

They sought an offspring from the true [Eternal Day]!

A Mortals prays to a False God for a child!

In the instant before her faint consciousness faded away, in the moment before her fragile body was about to be possessed, Hu Xuan's murmurs echoed in the Nothingness and blossomed on the Dagger of Stars!

May the robber weep in remorse, may the thief feel ashamed, may you and I... shine together. Relax, you will see me...

This was originally an invitation from a tiny speck of dust to the giant sun, a trivial request that had less impact on the [Eternal Giant Sun] than the blinking of Zainjil's eyelids.

Normally, none of Him would respond.

But things are different today.

Destiny's Choice leaned in Hu Xuan's favor.

This Life Sage, who had been deceived to the point of Nothingness, became the one who needed to be redeemed in Cheng Shi's wildly imaginative gambling game!

Then, in the unseen depths of Nothingness, a pair of eyes slowly opened.

Those eyes made no extra movements, merely Indifference sweeping over everything present, and then...

On the belly of the already deceased Hu Xuan, a small curve appeared.

The Eternal Day responded.

Zainjil was terrified!

If he were to switch places with Hu Xuan at this point, he would become the mother of [Birth] offspring, completely drawn into the embrace of [Birth], and transformed into a shell that worships procreation and is nearing its end.

Because the child he was carrying was the child of Hu Xuan and [Eternal Day].

At the moment the child is born, the mother, who is merely a shell, dies.

If all of this happens, perhaps no one can be considered a winner, but Zainjil will definitely be a loser.

So he got scared.

He withdrew all his methods and fell into a deep sleep once more.

He had made this attempt countless times over the long course of time, and each time he had managed to escape unscathed. But this time, it was different from any other.

Because at the very moment Hu Xuan's belly swelled up, a pair of eyes opened once more from the depths of Nothingness.

A pair of identical eyes.

Why have you come?

"Hehe~ Let's watch the show."

As soon as he finished speaking, a dense, viscous, and terrifying Vitality spread through the Nothingness. In an instant, a long whip, like a tentacle, lashed through all obstacles in the Nothingness and entered.

The first pair of eyes narrowed slightly as it appeared before them.

[Divine Pillar].

The Divine Pillar that Birth [the child].

This great pillar, which connects all the Life Tablet from ancient times to the present, appeared for the first time in the depths of Nothingness.

He twisted his body, spreading Vitality, and uttered trembling murmurs.

In just a moment, all the Nothingness celestial bodies in the entire Nothingness began to tremble unconsciously.

His eyes were gloomy, yet he was laughing heartily.

Why have you come?

"My child."

As the [Divine Pillar] lashed out, all the fluctuations in the Nothingness rubbed together and produced such syllables.

"My child."

Those playful eyes darted around, and immediately, considerately, translated for Him:

"The eldest has already lost a child once in the past, so He doesn't want to lose it again, right, eldest?"

The Divine Pillar remained unresponsive, continuing to murmur those four syllables repeatedly.

The first pair of eyes glanced Indifference at the second pair of eyes.

"You think you're very considerate?"

"Hmm... how could it not be?"

"I haven't even held you accountable for the trouble you caused."

"Don't talk nonsense. I just found someone, but he didn't cause any trouble. You saw that yourself."

"..."

The spiral in those Indifference eyes began to swirl. Time passed second by second. It was unclear how much time had passed, or if it was just a blink of an eye, but He spoke again.

"What do you intend to do?"

"A child is born."

The Divine Pillar lashed out at the void with Nothingness, piercing sound, and the scattered Vitality almost made the entire Nothingness come into existence.

"Get him away, and I'll satisfy you."

"?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Divine Pillar surged up and lashed out with a whip.

"Whoosh—"

Something was thrown out.

The scene An Jing down.

His Indifference eyes finally Indifference, and he sneered at the [Divine Pillar], murmuring in unison:

"Now, let's talk about the price."

At that moment, the Nothingness stars stopped trembling. They moved and connected in a regular pattern, and soon drew a book of stars that shone with the starlight of knowledge.

The pages turned, making a rustling sound.

"It seems I've arrived just in time."

The two of them used my assets as bargaining Chip without my consent...

I suppose they wouldn't mind having another person at the negotiating table.

"A child is born."

"..."
