"And it seems that Chair Blake is in here too!" March 7th exclaimed in surprise.

Dan Heng deduced, "The tone of his voice doesn't sound like him, but Xing shouldn't have mistaken him for someone else."

" Teacher Ye Yan, do you have any clues?"

Actually, I'm not familiar with him.

Did you choose to cut at the speed of light? Haki Ye, you bastard...

"You might be able to fool strangers, but don't fool yourself, Teacher Ye Yan," March 7th earnestly advised.

Ye Yan smiled. Anyway, Blake himself was at the [ Sleepless Earl ] teahouse, temporarily taking over for Mr. Xiyan had taken leave, and was immersed in the art of storytelling.

"Five hundred times... can she really finish copying it all?"

"Perhaps she needs a little bit of [ Eternity ] help?"

The perspective shifts to Xing's side, where she sits on a wooden stool, diligently copying the book " The Thousand-Armed Compassionate Medicine King's Salvation ".

"At that time, the Thousand-Armed Compassionate Medicine King traveled throughout the realms, together with 99,999 Medicaster, residing under Rahu, and preaching the Dharma..." She unconsciously began to recite:

Feeling the soreness in her index finger and shoulder, and thinking about the remaining 499 repetitions, Xing suddenly felt a little regretful.

"When these words were spoken, all 99,999 people Medicaster freed from the suffering of birth, old age, sickness, and death."

" Compassionate Medicine King bring forth new life from the Ambrosial Arbor. Medicaster with one heart ascend together to the Pure Land."

"Ah, you haven't even finished copying it once."

She turned to look at Blake, who was writing furiously, and was momentarily puzzled.

[ Eternity ] Emanator the intensity to exceed the limit, so I had to go and admire it.

Taking advantage of Green Phoebe's inattention, Star quietly walked up to Blake, transforming the mimicry weapon in her hand into a magnifying glass.

You won't believe it until you see it, and what you find will shock you.

What Blake copied was not " The Thousand-Armed Compassionate Medicine King's Salvation," but clearly " The Book of Eternal Virtues "!

What? You're asking how she knew about " The Book of Eternal Virtues "? Mind your own business... cough, because she saw the two prominent words on it: Eternity.

Human civilization, like the trajectory of stars, seeks Eternity light in the vast night. Virtue is not a fixed dogma, but a life rhythm flowing in our blood, a resonance of souls that transcends time and space!

Addendum: All characters, stories, and settings in *The Eternity Creed * are Enigmata and have no relation to * The Book of Eternal Virtues * written by Chair Blake.

If this is a true story, it must be because the Antimatter Legion has invaded your brain and [ Destruction ] your Eternity thoughts!

"You even wrote down the ending supplement? Are you that capable?" Xing was shocked. The speed at which this copying was so fast that it was invisible to the naked eye!

"I'm good at copying this stuff. Back in the day... that guy Blake made me copy the ' Book of Eternal Virtues ' five thousand times as punishment, I was practically locked up in a dark room. Oh, of course, I did it voluntarily."

"Huh? What are you saying Chair Blake...?" Xing was stunned, and she couldn't help but doubt the true identity of the man in front of her.

"Ahem... Excuse me, let's start from the beginning. Beautiful lady, when I talk about the past, I inevitably get a little emotional, like the gears inside a machine being unconsciously turned. Please don't mind."

"Why have you suddenly become so gentlemanly? I get it, you're not Chair Blake at all!"

"Damn it... I've been found out! Looks like my acting skills still need some improvement!"

" Blake said somewhat unwillingly, it was its carelessness!"

"Ha! No inferior product can escape the eyes of Galactic Baseballer! Do you know how I found out?"

What is it?

"You don't have Blake's signature effect—Holy Light."

Xing pointed it out directly: Blake likes to occasionally turn on an invisible spotlight when he speaks; he enjoys the feeling of being bathed in holy light.

"Hey! Now that I've seen through you, hurry up and state your name!" Xing pulled out a baseball bat. Most people wouldn't bother impersonating someone else unless...

"The sole deacon of the Church of Eternity — Screwllum."

"Hmm? What's your relationship with Screwllum?" Upon hearing the name, Xing recalled her first encounter with Screwllum on the Space Station.

"The answer is obvious, madam. I come from the Planet Screwllum, and for some special reason, I was chosen by Priest Fulisina... and brought to the Church."

Hearing this bizarre story, Xing frowned.

"Wait a minute, the way you talk doesn't sound like Screwllum..."

"Regarding this question, you can ask Priest Fulisina. But we at [ Eternity ] always answer every question; actually, she messed things up, resulting in the current state."

"However, I don't find it funny."

Screwllum said earnestly, "This sacrifice is nothing compared to the search for the [ Eternity ] of inorganic life."

"That concludes my self-introduction. Is it your turn?"

Star waved his hand, "I will never change my name or surname, I am Galactic Baseballer!"

"Never heard of it."

"Ignorant." Xing snorted coldly, then showed the hourglass-shaped necklace to Screwllum.

"You know what this is, right?" She waved it in front of Screwllum.

The moment he saw the hourglass, Screwllum was filled with awe, and the way he looked at Xing changed.

Is it actually a fellow [ Eternity ] traveler like it?

"Hey, Miss Baseball Bat Hero, since we're so lucky to have each other, why don't you join our Church of Eternity?"

"I've heard this many times. You Church people are truly true to your principles," Xing remarked, clearly stating his identity to Screwllum.

"Did you see this special ticket? I'm already a member of the [ Astral Express ], so I refuse."

"Unfortunately, my first deal in Luofu ended in failure. Ah, perhaps this is fate."

"It's alright, don't blame yourself," Xing comforted her. "Although I can't join the Church, we can Church as tourists."

"Thank you, Ms. Baseball Bat Hero. Your words have deeply moved me. I've decided that I will copy the scripture five hundred times for you."

Taking advantage of the Medicaster ' inattention, Screwllum wrote furiously and finished copying the scripture in just one minute.

"Plan is in place!"

Screwllum a thud. "So, in the end, you were just using me?"

Xing shook his head. "How could that be? You have to trust Galactic Baseballer's morals; otherwise, he wouldn't do something like taking advantage of someone in distress."

"So... I've decided to cover for you so you can escape from here." Xing said righteously, as if she were prepared to sacrifice herself.

"No, actually I quite like being here."

"What kind of weird little quirk is this?"

In the end, Screwllum couldn't resist Star's insistence and was forcibly brought to Green Phoebe.

"Please calm your mind, slowly copy it, and gradually comprehend the supremely benevolent and beautiful enlightenment of the ' The Thousand-Armed Compassionate Medicine King's Salvation '."

"You've finished copying it." Xing handed him the copied scripture.

"Already finished copying? So fast? Let me check... Hmm... Hmm... It really is all copied, and copied so quickly and well. It seems you two are quite destined for immortality."

"Can I join the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus now?"

Seeing Xing's excitement, Green Phoebe waved her hand, indicating, "Calm down, calm down... The initiation trial is divided into two steps. You and that Cloud Knights have already completed the first step. Now... there's only the last step left."

"Don't worry. The second step is very simple and will be over quickly."

As Green Phoebe spoke, he walked out, and not long after, he returned with a person dressed in purple.

"Let me introduce you. This... is our boss— Violet Rose, the head of the Exalting Sanctum region."

Violet Rose nodded, a satisfied expression on her face. "I'll consider the first test passed. You didn't become suspicious or run away while he was gone; that's good, and you deserve a reward!"

"As for the second test, our Disciples of Sanctus Medicus principle for personnel selection is: 'If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them.' Therefore..."

"Please, you two, duel here. The one who survives will officially become a Medicaster."

"I hit him, really?"

Green Phoebe explained, "Copying scriptures can demonstrate your piety, but whether you are loyal to the organization requires stronger guarantees... There's no way around it, the rules are what they are."

"Wait, wait a minute... No way! We came here seeking immortality, not to die. This sudden challenge to a duel puts us in a difficult position!"

"Difficult? Hmph... So you mean you're not going to do it?" Violet Rose tilted her head and smiled disdainfully.

"It's not that I'm forcing you to duel; you don't have to fight if you don't want to, but then I can't let any of you leave."

Star and Screwllum exchanged a glance, everything understood without a word.

"Then... could you give us some time to prepare?"
