The camera slowly zoomed in, focusing on the dark figure standing outside the Void rift.

As if sensing the gazes of the crowd, the menacing helmet tilted slightly to one side.

A line of blood-red text slowly appeared below him.

[Eating has only just begun.]

The Light Screen lit up again, its deep, eerie glow seemingly capable of devouring everything and firmly drawing everyone's attention.

The powerful beings in the Douluo God Realm, and even in more distant star fields, held their breath at this moment.

Tang San, Huo Yuhao, and Tang Wulin, three generations of the family, stood side by side, their expressions solemn.

Behind them stood former and present God King: Rong Nianbing, Ji Dong, Chang Gongwei, Lei Xiang... Each of them wore an unprecedented solemnity.

A figure appeared in the scene.

He did not exude any earth-shattering aura, nor did he display any extraordinary phenomena such as Divine Radiance.

He stood quietly atop a solitary mountain, overlooking the vast and boundless world below.

However, the moment they saw him, all the Deity present felt as if their hearts were being gripped by an invisible hand.

"This feeling..." Tang San had activated his Purple Demon Eye to its limit, but he could only see a blurry figure, as if that person was the embodiment of Laws, impossible to look at directly or fathom.

"It's not the pressure of energy," Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Eye flickered. His Divine Power cautiously reached out like tentacles, only to be crushed by an invisible force the instant it approached the image. "It's the pressure of 'existence.' His very existence makes space and time feel... dread."

The Golden Dragon King Bloodline within Tang Wulin roared wildly, a tremor stemming from instinct, not fear, but an involuntary reaction to a higher level of life.

"He is stronger than I was at my peak." A deep voice rang out; it was the Dragon God.

His dragon eyes, which held the Creation and destruction, were now filled with shock.

These words shocked everyone present.

The Dragon God —that was the ceiling of combat power in their minds!

[Top 10 Show -Teyvat Off Kings in Teyvat]

[TOP1: Surtrochi]

[Reason for inclusion: I have ascended to godhood, reigning supreme above the heavens. No one in this world can rival me. Only by venturing into the vast Sea of Stars can I fully display my divine might.]

The gilded characters on the screen, each one like a star, crashed into the Kokomi of the crowd, stirring up a storm.

"Teyvat has no rivals..." Ning Rongrong murmured to herself, unable to imagine the loneliness and isolation it must have felt.

"So, he's going to space?" Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi exchanged a glance, both seeing disbelief in each other's eyes.

For them, becoming a god and ascending to the Divine Realm is almost the end of their cultivation journey.

But for this person, a world is merely the beginning.

The images shift.

Surtrochi appeared at an ancient astrological table.

Opposite him stood a blindfolded prophet.

"Vedrfolnir, I am about to embark on a long journey." Surtrochi's voice was flat, devoid of any emotion.

The prophet Vedrfolnir bowed slightly. "The sky is with you, my supreme king. But before you depart, the threads of fate have shown me a glimpse of the future."

"Oh?" Surtrochi seemed to have become slightly interested.

"In the distant future, you will encounter a 'strongest disciple'," the prophet said, enunciating each word clearly. "His radiance will even illuminate your path."

Surtrochi was silent for a moment, then chuckled softly.

"The strongest disciple? Interesting. Then I'll wait for his arrival at the edge of the Sea of Stars."

He seemed to treat the prophecy not as a threat at all, but rather as an interesting agreement.

Upon seeing this, the gods exchanged bewildered glances.

"The strongest disciple? Is there anyone who can surpass him?" Zhou Weiqing stroked his chin, his face full of curiosity.

"Perhaps it's not about surpassing," Lie Yan's gaze fell on Ji Dong, thoughtfully, "But rather a kind of inheritance. Just like us."

Ji Dong stirred, and he thought of himself and his teacher Zhu Rong, and of himself and Lie Yan.

The strongest sometimes doesn't refer to physical strength, but rather to the continuation of a will.

Tang San's gaze swept over Huo Yuhao and Tang Wulin, his heart filled with mixed emotions. His disciples, his descendants—weren't they simply the continuation and flourishing of his path?

This Surtrochi, though extremely aloof, doesn't seem to reject this kind of bond.

The scene changes again.

Surtrochi arrived at a dark and ancient castle.

A man Entanglement in an ominous aura sat on the throne; he was Surtrochi's friend, Skovnug.

"Are you leaving?" Skovnug's voice was hoarse, like rusty metal rubbing together.

"Hmm." Surtrochi nodded. "Before I leave, the last thing I can do for you is to lift the Undying Curse from your body."

Upon hearing this, everyone watching held their breath.

The Undying Curse!

These four words have a special meaning for Deity.

Immortality is the ultimate goal that countless mortals dream of, but it is also the daily routine they have long been accustomed to.

But immortality is also a kind of Shackles.

"No need," Skovnug's reply surprised everyone.

He refused.

"Why?" Surtrochi asked.

"The Sin I have committed must be repaid with Eternity life. Death, for me, is both a release and an escape." Skovnug slowly raised his head, his eyes devoid of pain, only a deathly calm. "Besides, if I die, who will remember you, my only friend?"

Surtrochi remained silent.

He didn't try to persuade him further.

He stood there quietly for a while, then turned and left.

This scene left many people in a long silence.

"Immortality... is it Curse?" Xiao Xiao asked, somewhat puzzled.

"When your family, friends, loved ones, and everything you cherish vanish with the passage of time, leaving you alone in the world, immortality becomes the most vicious Curse."

It was Gu Yuena who spoke.

Her voice trembled slightly, and her silver eyes reflected Tang Wulin's image, filled with complex emotions.

She understood that kind of loneliness better than anyone else.

The Dragon God also let out a long sigh.

For the continuation of the Dragon Clan, he launched the Dragon God War, ultimately perishing and his soul shattering. If he had truly achieved Eternity victory and ruled the entire Divine Realm, what kind of loneliness would he have faced in the endless ages?

Skovnug's refusal made these beings, who had lived for countless millennia, begin to truly grasp the weight of the word "immortality" for the first time.

"To remember one's only friend, one chooses to bear an Eternity Curse..." Ye Yinzhu sighed softly. He and Zi exchanged a glance, both seeing the respect for this friendship in each other's eyes.

This is more profound and more sincere than any vow of eternal love.

Just as everyone was still immersed in these complex emotions, the scene in the picture underwent its final dramatic change.
