That night, Jiang Xiaofeng returned to Mondstadt.

Paimon lay on the grass of Windrise, lost in thought.

Jiang Xiaofeng suddenly appeared.

What are you looking at?

Jiang Xiaofeng waved his hand, illuminating the large tree at the Windrise.

"It's so dark, I can't see anything."

Paimon looked at Jiang Xiaofeng.

"I don't even know what I'm looking at."

"Perhaps... it's a feeling of uncertainty about the future."

Jiang Xiaofeng: "?"

What is there to be confused about in the future?

"It's not that Changsheng beings live to a ripe old age; they just kill themselves after they've lived Changsheng enough. What else can they do?"

Paimon shook his head. "Just coasting along is easy."

"I don't know what can be done in the meantime."

Jiang Xiaofeng stroked his chin.

"You really don't know what to do?"

"Let me make this clear beforehand: I can give you something to do, but you might not be able to stick with it."

Paimon sat bolt upright in one go. "Really?"

Jiang Xiaofeng nodded.

"I'm not lying."

Just as Paimon was about to speak again, Jiang Xiaofeng picked her up and carried her back into the King's Box.

"If you have a child, you won't be bored..."

Paimon's eyes widened.

I've been scammed!

The next day, Jiang Xiaofeng returned to the Windrise and restored the tree he had carelessly set on fire to its original state, then opened the Void.

In the Void, four Void creatures were still asleep. Jiang Xiaofeng waved his hand and brought them out.

"Father!" "Dad!"

The four little ones hugged him as soon as they came out.

Jiang Xiaofeng comforted them one by one, then casually opened a Starry Sky Gate.

"Let's go back to the world you were meant to exist in and take a look."

The four Void creatures and Jiang Xiaofeng entered the Starry Sky Gate.

Howling Cliffs.

Jiang Xiaofeng shrunk himself and the four little ones to a tiny size and stood at the edge of Hallownest.

"Go, you should have heard the call."

"Although it's not mine, you don't need to worry about dying."

The four little ones nodded and ran out.

"Um..."

Jiang Xiaofeng sat down next to the big bug guarding the gate and began to think about what he needed to take with him.

Although he didn't need some of the amulets, there were still a few that Jiang Xiaofeng was quite interested in.

He possessed both the Wrath of the Dead and the Void Heart. The Void Heart had been completely fused with him along with the Philosopher's Stone, so essentially he only had one amulet left.

But... Jiang Xiaofeng has Black Smash, and Black Wave has Black Rush.

These three skills are enough to wipe out the gods of Hallownest.

"Hiss... Hallownest seems to only have the Pale Mother that can be captured?"

The others were all insects, which I wasn't interested in.

However, the White Lady's body may have been the raw material for the Void Creatures' masks.

Although she didn't know where the four guys in her house got their masks from, the White Lady's body was definitely worth studying.

Besides, I could also try to eliminate all the gods in Hallownest to nourish the Void God of this world, so that my Eldest could absorb them...

Jiang Xiaofeng nodded, thinking it was feasible.

So Jiang Xiaofeng simply walked out.

As they walked, the Void Power seeped into the ground, beginning to spread throughout Hallownest.

"The stag beetle is a good means of transportation..."

"White light crickets can be used as nuclear power lamps..."

" The Abyss... hmm... seems to have nothing worth absorbing..."

" Temple of the Black Egg..."

Jiang Xiaofeng reached the edge of the Howling Cliffs, and leaped off.

"First, kill the Radiance of Reality, then Godseeker and kill the Radiance Absolute."

"Once the threat to Hallownest is completely eliminated, leave the four little ones here in Hallownest and see if they have the time or inclination to explore the areas outside of Hallownest."

Jiang Xiaofeng Luffy, crashing directly into the closed gate.

The four children split into three groups, and none of them took the King's Pass route...

Jiang Xiaofeng arrived at the well in Dirtmouth, jumped in, and headed straight for the Temple of the Black Egg.

Jiang Xiaofeng kicked the door sealed off by the three dream guardians and flew inside.

"..."

In the air, the Hollow Knight was chained by four chains.

Jiang Xiaofeng flew straight up, grabbed the Hollow Knight's head, and struck him with a Dream Nail.

"Roar--"

After a flash of light, Jiang Xiaofeng stood on a platform.

Jiang Xiaofeng looked at the dream world filled with light, then spread his hands, unleashing the Void Power, which rapidly eroded the Radiance world.

"Roar--"

The Radiance couldn't hold back any longer and quickly jumped out to try and stop Jiang Xiaofeng's actions.

However, with a wave of Jiang Xiaofeng's hand, it was enveloped by the Void Power and instantly devoured completely.

"How long have I held onto my Void Power? You giant moth, how dare you come after me?"

Before the Radiance was completely swallowed up, it heard this sentence.

"I! Will! Not! Be! Forgotten!"

"Roar--"

Jiang Xiaofeng woke up immediately.

Then, with a flick of his wrist, Hollow Knight's time was frozen at that moment.

"Next comes the Radiance Absolute."

" With the Radiance Absolute, the Hollow Knight will regain its self-awareness."

Jiang Xiaofeng turned and left, releasing the Ruin Serpent's body and shrinking it.

The smaller Ruin Serpent burrowed into the ground and headed towards the sewers.

Soon, Jiang Xiaofeng emerged from the ground.

A locked coffin appeared before Jiang Xiaofeng.

Jiang Xiaofeng recovered his health, pried open the coffin, and entered the dream of the Godseeker.

Inside the Pantheon, Jiang Xiaofeng flew to the Godseeker and grabbed him by the neck.

"Summon the Radiance immediately."

"Or I'll crush you to death."

Jiang Xiaofeng was just going through the motions. If the Godseeker really started spouting nonsense, Jiang Xiaofeng would directly control the Godseeker ' consciousness and make him summon the Radiance Absolute.

Fortunately, the Godseeker listened.

The moment the Radiance Absolute was uttered, he found himself gripped by a giant hand.

"?"

The Radiance Absolute looked at Jiang Xiaofeng's hand, then at Jiang Xiaofeng.

"..."

Jiang Xiaofeng took out the Dream Nail and struck the Radiance Absolute with it, the dream's message being, "No! Sacrifice!"

Feeling bored, Jiang Xiaofeng simply crushed the giant moth to death.

Shaking his hand, Jiang Xiaofeng looked at the Godseeker beside his feet and stomped down.

"Bang!"

The figure of the Godseeker suddenly exploded.

Exiting the dream world, Jiang Xiaofeng summoned his Eldest directly to his side.

"Take everything from his dreams and become the Void God of the Abyss!"

The Knight nodded, Void Tentacles emerged from beneath the cloak, piercing the Godseeker's body.

The Godseeker slowly emerged from the black Void, quickly transforming into wisps of Void Power that were absorbed into the Knight's body.

"Go down into the Abyss and find that eggshell."

"You'll find what you need there."

Jiang Xiaofeng patted his Eldest on the shoulder, then turned and left.

As for the Knight of this world?

If the signal is suddenly cut off when the Knight is summoned, and the King's Pass isn't even open yet, wouldn't Hallownest be unable to welcome the Void God, and instead, an invincible little monster appear where the Knight is staying?
