Chapter 2658 / Chapter 2659

And this guy can also bring me a lot of fun.

The most crucial point is that in the past, if something happened on Friends Circle, everyone would say it was Sparkle's doing, but in the future, if something happens on Friends Circle, Sparkle can say it was Sparkle's doing!

As the commotion gradually subsided, the sky suddenly lit up again, and Chen Li's voice echoed once more throughout the New Penacony.

"The Holy Grail War may be over... but the ceremony has only just begun. Ladies and gentlemen, are you ready?" Chen Li said meaningfully.

What ceremony?

"Ritual? What does that mean?"

"Isn't the Holy Grail War just a ritual? Why is there a ritual involved?"

Visitors to New Penacony up at the sky with curiosity, and murmurs of discussion rose again throughout the entire city.

"Is it finally... coming?"

Chapter 2658

Unlike the clueless New Penacony, those in the Friends Circle who knew a little about the situation all looked up at the sky.

The next moment, the Miracle Fire, which had spread throughout New Penacony, suddenly blazed up and engulfed the entire city in an instant.

People looked up at the sky in alarm, only to find that only Fu Xuan's figure remained on top of the Haiyuan TV Tower.

The sky itself gradually melted in the flames, its surface rippling with waves before shattering into countless points of light that dissipated into the air.

Just as everyone was searching for the whereabouts of the Miraculous Forger, the sky darkened, and they looked up to see a figure as large as the entire New Penacony.

Wearing the Golden Honkai-Moe King Outfit, Chen Li looked down at the masses below. Miracle Fire surged beneath his feet, enveloping the entire New Penacony in a blue glow.

"The Holy Grail War has ended, but the Paradise Ritual has only just begun. Next, I will use this closing Holy Grail War ritual to lay the foundation for Paradise." Chen Li's voice came from the sky, echoing in every corner of New Penacony.

"What is Miraculous Item? Miraculous Item is an object created by Extraction and forging terms that contain history and concepts. The brighter the term, the better the Miraculous Item's effect. The New Penacony, having gathered the essence of the entire galaxy, is undoubtedly the best choice."

Perhaps on a whim, or perhaps waiting for something, Chen Li began to share some basic facts about the Miraculous Item with everyone.

Upon hearing Chen Li's explanation, the New Penacony was instantly thrown into an uproar.

"As expected! This New Penacony is a scam!"

"What exactly is the Miraculous Forger planning to do? Is he planning to forge us all?"

"Calm down, the flames don't seem to hurt when they touch you..."

Inside the Astral Express, Murata Ryusuke covered his face with his only remaining hand and let out a hearty laugh.

"Unbelievable! Unbelievable! The Miraculous Forger had such a scheme, and we were all caught in its web. A genius idea! No, this is simply a perfect deception."

Meanwhile, in Penacony, Old Audi, who was pinned to the ground by the Oak Family, listened to Chen Li's words, and his expression became complicated.

"No wonder... the Holy Grail War, the Swarm, the Great Holy Grail, it was all for this moment. And his goal was to use the Swarm to ignite the Miracle Fire throughout New Penacony." Old Audi murmured to himself, his tone surprisingly tinged with admiration.

As Chen Li explained, Chen Li, who was about the same age as the New Penacony, also reached out a hand towards the Great Holy Grail floating in the sky.

With Chen Li's current size, he could just hold the Great Holy Grail with one hand and then tilt it slightly...

Just as everyone was wondering what Chen Li was doing, as the Great Holy Grail was tilted, countless enormous souls slowly floated out from the inner space of the Great Holy Grail.

The souls, like falling stars, poured from the rim of the cup, trailing long, luminous tails, and slowly descended to the earth below. Each soul radiated a unique light.

The faces of these figures were perfectly captured by the sky, revealing their true appearances to everyone.

"Resurrected? Those Servants... resurrected? Even the Aeon have been resurrected."

Upon seeing this, the entire New Penacony erupted in excitement once again.

What is even more striking is that every single one of these poured-out souls was burning with blue flames.

Because they remained inside the Great Holy Grail, which was the first place where the Miracle Fire was ignited, they were burned even more thoroughly.

For example, the [Elation] attribute on Aha, the [Trailblaze] attribute on A Kivili... each attribute is exceptionally bright, as dazzling as stars.

A Kivili and Aha were poured out of the Great Holy Grail and their feet touched the ground, they looked at each other and immediately began to grapple. To be precise, A Kivili grabbed Aha by the neck.

"Aha, no, no, no, I surrender, I surrender!" Aha quickly raised his hands and begged for mercy.

Seeing Aha surrender at lightning speed, A Kivili disgustedly released him and then patted himself with a look of utter disgust, as if brushing off some unseen dirt.

"There are just too many bugs in the Great Holy Grail, it's so annoying," A Kivili complained.

Although the Propagation Aeon was lured out of the Great Holy Grail by the Immortal Aeon, many insects were left inside the Great Holy Grail and were not taken out.

As a result, almost everyone took a bath of insects.

"Indeed." The Immortal Aeon nodded in agreement.

"I wish I hadn't died so young. Those insects were absolutely disgusting," said the Order Aeon, Taiyi, with obvious disgust.

As the Aeon spoke, their gazes all fell on the Propagation Aeon who had also been poured out.

The Propagation Aeon was currently huddled in a corner, its enormous eyes, filled with compound eyes, darting left and right, as if it too had sensed the danger.

"Hit him!" Aha, hiding behind A Kivili, urged him on as if he didn't want the drama to get out of hand.

Almost the instant he heard those two words, A Kivili grabbed a folding stool he'd somehow produced and rushed forward, smashing it over the head of the Propagation Aeon.

Other Aeon followed suit, joining the group at lightning speed.

Few Aeon can be liked by all Aeon, but some Aeon can be hated by all the other Aeon.

For example, Propagation Aeon...

Mikhail and Ternan, standing to the side, looked at each other in bewilderment as they watched this scene.

Their expressions became particularly subtle after they saw A Kivili, who appeared in Pom-Pom form and was kicking and punching the Propagation Aeon alongside the other Aeon.

"Aha, I didn't expect our Trailblaze Aeon to be so lively." Mikhail scratched his head and laughed somewhat awkwardly.

"Yes. Speaking of which, I only just found out that Lord A Kivili is actually a Rider in the official competition. If I remember correctly, Mikhail, you once said you wanted to have a showdown with a Rider from the official competition. He's right here right now, go ahead and see whose the Trailblaze Spirit is stronger between you two." Ternan glanced at Mikhail, a hint of amusement in his voice.

"Me?" Mikhail pointed to himself.

"That's right." Ternan nodded.

Mikhail scratched his head, whistled, and looked away.

Let me compete with the true form of the Trailblaze Aeon to see who is more Trailblaze.

Are you kidding me!

However, if we're talking about who's in the most awkward position among Servants, it's probably the Servant just had a heartfelt farewell to their Master, like Guizhong.

Guizhong looking around and making sure there were no familiar faces nearby, Gui Zhong quietly hid in a corner.

After winning the Holy Grail War, Feiying Yao Guang summoned to the Astral Express by Yao Guang. Listening to the conversation of the Servants, she couldn't help but shudder.

Feiying then realized that there were so many insects inside the Great Holy Grail.

"How about it? Shouldn't you thank me? Otherwise, you'd be the one with your soul trapped in the insect pit right now." Yao Guang patted Feiying on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Of course, Yao Guang couldn't be sure whether Feiying would return to the Great Holy Grail after being defeated... Similarly, Fei Ying only had one Servant and Master, but Feiying was different from Old Audi.

Old Audi was both Master and Servant, while Feiying had obtained the Ruler class, and therefore could not summon Servants.

But this didn't stop Yao Guang from using this reason to scare Feiying.

Feiying subconsciously became immersed in Yao Guang's description, and her body trembled again, but then she realized something and quickly turned around to face Yao Guang, making sure that the other party was not behind her.

"You... you stay away from me." Feiying looked at Yao Guang warily, trying to prevent her from launching herself out again.

"What are you afraid of me for? I helped you win the Holy Grail War."

Chapter 2659

Yao Guang shrugged and said with an innocent look on his face.

"So, do you want this victory?" Feiying retorted indignantly.

"That's a real shame. As the leader of the Paradise Alliance now, I'm afraid I won't have time to preside over the Holy Grail War." Yao Guang shrugged, his tone full of regret.

"That settles it, doesn't it? I'll remember you forever! Oh, and Pearl too." Feiying gritted her teeth, then turned to look at Pearl with a hint of resentment.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Pearl turned her face away expressionlessly.

"And Feiying, haven't you always wanted a cooler way to move? Transforming into a great fortune, how can that not be cool? By the way, here's the Ying-Riding Reins. Maybe you can launch yourself." Facing Feiying's question, Yao Guang smiled and handed the Miraculous Item to Feiying.

"No way!" Feiying instinctively took a step back.

Feiying then realized that perhaps when Yao Guang chose this Miraculous Item at Chen Li's stall, he was waiting to launch himself at the crucial moment.

Yao Guang, how far have your eyes truly seen?

Unlike his Friends Circle who knew Chen Li inside and out, the situation at New Penacony was in complete chaos at this moment.

Some people clung tightly to the arms of their companions, some stared intently at the sky, and some had already mentally repented for all the wrongdoings they had ever committed in their lives.

"Is the Miraculous Forger planning to use the souls of Heroic Spirits as a sacrifice?"

"I think it's possible! Look, all those Servants are engulfed in blue flames, could they be Extraction that term he mentioned?"

Just as the tourists at New Penacony were discussing and feeling uneasy, Chen Li's voice once again came down from the sky.

"Please do not panic. I will not harm anyone, Miracle Fire will not cause you any damage. However, what you are about to witness is my masterpiece to date. Therefore, I hope that everyone present can be a witness to this work." Chen Li's voice, tinged with amusement, came from the sky.

Just as everyone calmed down a little, Chen Li's figure began to swell again.

From being the same size as the New Penacony, to being larger than the New Penacony, and then to being so large that the New Penacony could no longer be used as a reference point.

In the end, the New Penacony, which was the size of a star spread out, was easily held in Chen Li's palm, like a delicate ornament the size of a palm.

The sky reappeared before everyone's eyes, presenting the scene to each person from the best possible perspective.

With the help of the sky screen, everyone was finally able to see the whole picture.

Beside Chen Li's other hand, a Forging Table emitting blue flames had appeared out of nowhere. Under everyone's gaze, Chen Li gently placed the New Penacony on the Forging Table.

"What a grand gesture! To use the New Penacony, which has captured the attention of the entire galaxy, as a forging material?"

"Are all Miraculous Item made this way? That's terrifying..."

"That's why these Miraculous Item are so powerful. Just seeing this forging process has completely put my mind at ease."

Chen Li didn't seem to intend to give everyone too much time to process the shock, and continued in a relaxed tone, "I just explained the forging methods of Miraculous Items, now let's explain how to select the appropriate attributes."

"New Penacony did indeed capture the attention of the entire galaxy, becoming its center. However, its existence was too short, lasting only seven days. As a source for an entry, its brightness is far from sufficient."

Upon hearing Chen Li's question, the tourists at New Penacony started discussing it again.

"Could it be Penacony itself? The Miraculous Forger just said that the next event is the Paradise Ritual, so Penacony, as the prototype for the New Penacony and hailed as the Festive Star, is naturally the most suitable material, right?"

"To forge a Miraculous Item, an entire planet renowned throughout the world must be sacrificed? Is this the ambition of Miraculous Forger...?"

"Will the Family agree? And this is territory where Path of Harmony," someone said, frowning.

"Don't be silly, bro. Didn't you see? Harmony Aeon personally joined the Holy Grail War. How could you disagree?"

"Feel free to be a little bolder with your guesses," Chen Li said with a smile, as if he had heard everyone's speculations.

Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, a single sentence rang out, silencing everyone.

"Do you think... it's possible that it could be Aeon?"

"Don't you think there are a lot of Aeon summoned as Servants in this Holy Grail War? Elation, Harmony, Trailblaze, Permanence, Order, the Hunt, Remembrance, Propagation, and there's even a Voracity guarding the outside..."

"If you insist on saying so, isn't there something more brilliant and more eternal than the Aeon? The Aeon may fall, but the Path will not close unless the Path itself is dismantled or destroyed. Why don't you say that the Miraculous Forger intends to use the Path as the forging material?"

"Huh? Really?"

"Bingo! Congratulations! A lucky viewer answered correctly." Chen Li's voice silenced the crowd's chatter once again.

With that snap of his fingers, a trophy appeared out of thin air in front of Chen Li.

People recognized the trophy as Miraculous Item [Guardian of Human Order] that Chen Li had previously awarded to Feiying in the sky.

The trophy has a unique design, as a small tree is planted inside it.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Chen Li reached out and grasped the trunk of the sapling, slowly pulling it out of the trophy, and then casually tossed the Guardian of Human Order trophy aside.

At this moment, the sapling's complete form was revealed to everyone.

With its lush canopy and abundant foliage, it looks no different from any other tree at first glance. But its root system is exceptionally developed... a total of eighteen main roots extend from the base of the trunk in all directions, like eighteen winding tentacles, their ends disappearing into the void.

Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, Chen Li actually turned the sapling upside down. The crown faced downwards, and the roots faced upwards.

The next moment, the blue Miracle Fire rose from Chen Li's palm and enveloped the sapling.

"I ask you, in this galaxy, what exists more brilliantly, more anciently, and more eternally than Path?" Chen Li countered.
