That's it?
Qin Ze thought that Sanmu would say something like "I will dedicate myself to the gods and save Myriad Races in the Abyss."
Sanmu said calmly, "Surprised?"
Qin Ze nodded. "A little."
Sanmu twirled his sword and sheathed his cyan longsword.
My mission is over.
"Next, I will use my limited time to see this new era."
Qin Ze asked in surprise, "Are you going to die?"
Sanmu remained calm and composed. " Demigod among martial artists, though called a god, is still a mortal body."
"God's gifts have given me three times the Source of Life of a normal Demigod."
"Now, judging by the time, the deadline is fast approaching."
Although the two had only spent a few hours together, Qin Ze felt a strange sadness and desolation.
"Is there no way to prolong life?"
Sanmu replied, "The only way is to become a god, but alas, the Star Gate has already been shattered."
Qin Ze asked curiously, "You've been staying in this world the whole time, how did you know the Star Gate was shattered?"
Sanmu explained, "Every Demigod is summoned by the Star Gate."
"If the summoning fails, the Star Gate naturally disappears as well."
Qin Ze's gaze fell on Miss Sword Case beside him.
Old Huang's research notes prove that it is feasible to use Miss Sword Case to recast the Star Gate.
But when Qin Ze thought about bricking Miss Sword Case into the door, he decided it was better to let Sanmu die.
Having lived for over ten thousand years, it's time for this old codger to die.
Noticing Qin Ze's gaze, Miss Sword Case asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Qin Ze transmitted his voice. "It's okay, you go ahead and do your thing."
"Oh."
The idle Miss Sword Case continued to pretend that she was just an ordinary Sword Case.
After bringing " Fire Child " back, Miss Sword Case's emotions stabilized considerably, and she reverted to her silly, "refined young lady" self.
Sanmu clasped his hands in a fist salute to Qin Ze: "May your military fortunes prosper."
Qin Ze returned the greeting. "May you live forever and never die."
Sanmu laughed a few times, "That's really a genuine blessing."
He then said to Miss Sword Case, "You are well too."
Miss Sword Case's surprised voice rang in Qin Ze's ears. "He's saying goodbye to me!"
"But she stole my child, and I don't really want to respond to him."
At this moment, Miss Sword Case realized for the first time that playing dead and being an ordinary Sword Case wasn't so bad.
Qin Ze said in a coaxing tone, "She's a dying person, we should be magnanimous and not hold a grudge against her."
Miss Sword Case hesitated for a moment, then said, "Alright."
Immediately, she spoke to Sanmu, "I forgive you. Live on forever."
Sanmu nodded and smiled; it was rare to see such a relaxed expression on his face.
"Goodbye."
With a carefree turn, Sanmu transformed into a streak of azure light and passed through the Gate of the Abyss.
Miss Sword Case watched the other person's disappearing figure and muttered, "So-so, really annoying."
" Qin Ze, you absolutely mustn't die."
Qin Ze smirked. "I'll try my best to die after you."
He looked at the sea of fire above and said, "Now, it's time to give the Molten Steel People some divine awe."
"Sword, come!"
A fire-attribute flying sword flew to Qin Ze's front.
The Fire of the Five Elements in the sky converged from all directions in an instant, forming a huge fire tornado, which the flying sword absorbed completely.
The Molten Steel World, shrouded in the Fire of the Five Elements for thousands of years, finally welcomed its first ray of sunlight.
Qin Ze then hurled his water-attribute flying sword into the sky, and a blue water dragon hundreds of meters long circled once above the area where the Molten Steel People gathered.
Splash--
A torrential downpour descended from the sky, Molten Steel People welcomed the first rain in a thousand years.
"Thank you, God!"
"The fire is out! It's raining!"
"It's so cool here!"
"Miracle!"
"..."
The Molten Steel People kept bowing in worship toward the radiant six-armed giant in the distance.
The clan chief's face flushed red, and his lips trembled as he said, "Our world... is alive!"
A magnificent rainbow streaked across Qin Ze's head, its brilliance mirroring the golden divine light emanating from him, becoming the sole color in this desolate world.
"The floodwaters are coming down!"
Miss Sword Case thoroughly watered all her new friends at once.
Whew~
A colorless fire suddenly ignited beneath Qin Ze's feet, engulfing him entirely.
Miss Sword Case was also happy for her good friend when she saw this. " Qin Ze, you're on fire!"
The progress bar for the Source of God increased by a barely perceptible point.
Qin Ze looked at the colorless flames dancing on the back of his hand and murmured, "Transforming the Molten Steel People is easier than I expected."
Thanks to the foreshadowing in the Spirit Divination Stick slip, otherwise he wouldn't have had the chance to help the Molten Steel Civilization resolve its doomsday crisis.
Qin Ze smiled and said, "Quickly say thank you, Lord Spirit Lot."
Random Bro was the first to step forward. "Thank you, Lord Spirit Lot!"
In the gathering place, the Molten Steel People sang and danced in the rain.
Beneath the Zhu Tie Furnace, the patriarch summoned the remaining Fire Keeper and the high-ranking leaders of the civilization.
"God saved the Molten Steel Civilization."
"If it weren't for a divine miracle today, the Molten Steel Civilization would have been completely wiped out."
"I hereby declare that, from this very moment on, the Molten Steel Civilization swears to follow the divine being to the death."
"Any objections?"
The Molten Steel People present shouted in unison, "We swear to follow our gods to the death!"
Zhu Tie stepped forward and said, "Chieftain, I request permission to lead our people back to the Sea of Glaze."
" The Sea of Glaze is also a civilization that follows the gods."
"And I was able to invite the gods to our world thanks to their introduction."
The clan chief nodded. "That's only right. We Molten Steel People have never been ungrateful wretches."
"From now on, you will be the ambassador to the Sea of Glaze. Please convey my greetings."
"Our Molten Steel Civilization will forge an eternal alliance with the Sea of Glaze."
If the Molten Steel World weren't currently in dire need of reconstruction, the clan leader would even have considered making a personal visit.
A high-ranking member nearby asked, "Chieftain, should we recall everyone from the Abyss?"
The clan chief nodded. "Contact them immediately and tell everyone they can go home."
At this Abyss, thousands of Furnace still drift in the abyss.
With the communication signal sent, those who have been away from home will embark on their journey back.
Miss Sword Case flew over the gathering place and landed above the crowd, speaking in a voice as authoritative as possible:
"You, and you, come with me."
The Zhu Tie and the Clan Chief, whose names were called, followed Miss Sword Case onto the Furnace.
In the room at the very top of the Furnace, Miss Sword Case pushed a ball of Fire of the Five Elements in front of them.
" The Spark."
"As long as there is ore, it will not go out."
Without the Furnace Mountain and the sea of fire in the sky, the Molten Steel People naturally lost the Fire of the Five Elements.
Now that they have Miss Sword Case's Spark, they can continue forging.
"Thank the gods!"
The clan chief banged his head on the ground. He had been thinking about how the Molten Steel People should "transform their industry" in the future, but the gods had directly solved the problem for him.
The Fire Keeper, Zhu Tie, took the Spark and found it to be gentler than Furnace Fire he had ever encountered before; it truly was a miracle.
The chieftain spoke, " The Molten Steel People have no way to repay God's grace of salvation; we swear to serve Him to the death."
" The Molten Steel People know nothing but forging."
"If there is anything God can do for us, then so be it."
Hearing this, Qin Ze, who was in the Shelter Space nearby, muttered to himself, "Forging..."
He couldn't help but think of Niuniu; he wondered if that stuff could be forged.
(Let's suggest a name for Random Bro )
