Everything was settled. Before heading to the Alchemy Commission, Xing received a message from Phantylia:
[ Tingyun: Speaking of which, did you see that just now, my benefactor? When that Ebon Deer stomped its feet on the ground, vines sprouted from nowhere.]
Xing frowned. How did Phantylia know, even though he wasn't there?
[ Tingyun: Although I am not by your side, my benefactors, I am still concerned about your safety. Upon seeing the Ambrosial Arbor revive, I immediately took out the lookout equipment.]
[star:?]
[Star: So... why didn't you come along?]
[ Tingyun:...]
[ Tingyun: I apologize, a slight mishap has occurred, and I have failed to live up to the expectations of my benefactors and Lord Yukong.]
Phantylia on the other end of the phone gritted her teeth. Her body needed time to heal, and looking at the revived [ Ambrosial Arbor ], she felt both envy and resentment.
[ Tingyun: The wonders of [ Abundance ] are truly extraordinary. This is the first time I, a young woman, have witnessed something so miraculous while traveling through the starry sea.]
[ Tingyun: I see the golden fruits growing on these branches, just like the ones mentioned in your myth of the Xianzhou.]
[ Tingyun: It is said that in ancient times, the ancestors of the Xianzhou were transformed into Long-Life Species by receiving the Immortal Fruit bestowed by the Ambrosial Arbor. If I were to eat this fruit, I wonder if I could possess infinite life like the Xianzhou native...]
"Hey, hey, hey, this is practically self-destruction!"
On March 7th, someone came over and saw all the messages Phantylia had sent to Xing, so he stopped pretending altogether.
[Star: Woman, your thoughts are dangerous...]
[ Tingyun: My benefactor, aren't you tempted by such an opportunity?]
Upon seeing this sentence, Xing Ling suddenly had a brilliant idea.
[Star: So... did Miss Tingyun... keep one?]
"Hey, you're playing hard to get with her." To be honest, March 7th found it quite interesting; let's see what tricks Xing can pull.
[ Tingyun: If I say yes, will my benefactor share the food with me?]
[ Tingyun: However, I understand your intentions, my benefactor. It's a pity that the Ebon Deer has turned to ashes, and of course, not a single fruit of the Ambrosial Arbor remains. Such an opportunity is rare, yet it vanishes in the blink of an eye, just like life itself...]
No matter how many bodies she seizes, Phantylia can never achieve her goal.
Like those who seek elixirs of immortality, it longs for an eternal body, free from the fear of Destruction.
It knew that this was an unattainable dream.
Ke Xing's next answer left Phantylia dumbfounded.
[Star: So... has Miss Tingyun ever considered... embarking on the Path of [ Eternity ]?]
Phantylia:...
They were so engrossed in their ultimate attack that they forgot the Astral Express had an [ Eternity ] Traveler.
Just as she suspected, none of the [ Eternity ] Walkers were any good.
The situation has reversed. Phantylia was talking to Xing about the Miracle of " Abundance," but now Xing is talking to her about " Eternity," which is not funny.
[Star: Immortality is also a kind of Eternity. Speaking of Eternity, what comes to mind, Miss Tingyun, as the ferryman of the merchant guild?]
[ Tingyun: Uh...]
Phantylia was stumped by the question. As the original Heliobus, she had never actively contacted anyone from [ Eternity ]. She had never even been to the Church.
[Star: Of course, it's the Church of Eternity, with a 99.99% positive review rate worldwide!]
You ask where that 0.01% of negative reviews came from? That must have been Nanook's doing!
Phantylia's lips twitched. Had she been set up by [ Eternity ]?
The first few days after arriving in Luofu were fine. Since it was going to be Destruction anyway, Phantylia took the opportunity to experience the unique cuisine and cultural scenery of the Xianzhou.
Hmm, she also went to a milk tea shop... Now she understands why the Xianzhou native are called "Immortal's Joy Tea "—the sweet drinks are really delicious, except for the shop's decor.
Ever since... ever since the rumors started circulating that the Stellaron Hunters had arrived in Luofu, everything has become increasingly uncontrollable!
It's ruined! The whole plan is ruined!
Although this is also a different kind of [ Destruction ]...
However, the plan to dismantle Luofu from within failed, meaning she had let down Lord Nanook's expectations, and her reputation and achievements were ruined! It was a stain on her life!
How can I hold my head up in front of my colleagues after this? To put it bluntly, I won't even be qualified to sit at the table for a meal; I'll be demoted to sit at the same table as the Doomsday Beast.
What Phantylia the most was why Blake was in Luofu! This was completely unexpected.
The Church Chair must be too idle, and... no one has ever told her about the relationship between the Xianzhou Alliance and the Church of Eternity!
Phantylia once suspected that there was a mole within the Antimatter Legion from [ Eternity ], otherwise their information would be too well-informed. She had just arrived in Luofu when the Church mobilized its full military force.
Recalling the events of the past two days, Phantylia felt utterly humiliated. She was the fearsome [ Lord Ravager ] who struck terror into the hearts of all under heaven! How could she have ended up like this!
[All of this... all of this is thanks to the wicked Aeon Yite! Oh my god... how could Yite be so evil!]
Now, there's only one way! Obtain the power of [ Abundance ] from within the Ambrosial Arbor to fight against the evil Yite!
Enraged, Phantylia was completely oblivious to the difference in the voice; anyone who didn't know better would think Phantylia had a split personality.
[ Abundance versus Eternity, shouldn't we expect the latter to win...?]
[Oh wait, with the divine powers of [ Abundance ] and [ Destruction ], dealing with the Church Chair the Xianzhou General would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?]
Phantylia frowned. How could she possibly fight two people at once? She wasn't stupid; she was originally the strategist of the [ Lord Ravager ].
The reason things have turned out this way is entirely due to being forced into a corner. All our strategies have been thwarted one by one by the opponent. How can we play if they have cheat codes?
It was a perfectly good 1v1, she even had a slight advantage... but as the game went on, the opposing team grew stronger and stronger, turning it into a 1v5 situation. Her winning streak suddenly turned into a losing one. How is she supposed to play like that?!
Are we really going to rely on that bunch of unreliable good-for-nothings from the " Disciples of Sanctus Medicus "?
[Put yourself in their shoes~ They are two people with two forces... But you, one person, have two forces, the advantage is yours~]
" Teacher Ye Yan, could you tell me... what it feels like to become Aeon?"
March 7th came directly over. As for the Alchemy Commission... trust Master Diviner Fu. Now that he knows Ye Yan's identity, he feels that the journey to Luofu is not so frightening. He still has to be wary of the Lord Ravager.
"What stands before Miss March 7th is merely a fabricated body... Strictly speaking, I am not a [ Aeon ] right now." Ye Yan cleverly skipped over this topic, mainly because he was afraid that March 7th would not understand.
Xing walked somewhat embarrassed to Ye Yan's side, "Is it too late for me to take back the nickname I gave him in Belobog?"
" Milk Tea Aeon, Soap Aeon... You're truly the first person to give the [ Eternity ] Aeon so many nicknames!"
"Haha~ The child is just kidding, just saying it casually..." Xing scratched her head awkwardly. How was she supposed to know that Ye Yan was the Aeon! Being able to meet someone of the [ Emanator ] level was already an incredible stroke of luck.
