A Deity's Lingering Will and Remnant Soul

In a certain galaxy within the Chaos Forbidden Domain Universe.

The Fool, wearing a clown mask, stands on one of the ruined planetary worlds, where traces of a past civilization can still be seen, with various crumbling buildings.

The past glory is long gone, but that doesn't mean there's nothing left on this planet.

Ripples spread across the space around the Fool, then shattered as if glass had broken.

A group of people fell out of the hole; they were the rest of the Tarot Club members who had followed the Fool to the Chaos Forbidden Domain.

Among them, some wore expressions of surprise, some were filled with curiosity, and some were etched with worry.

The only thing they all had was the weariness written on their faces.

Before they could say anything, the planet beneath their feet shook, and wide cracks appeared in the earth.

"Bang!"

With a deafening roar, the planetary world shattered and began to disintegrate, with fragments scattering in all directions. Some fell into the deeper reaches of the universe, while others drifted nearby.

The Fool was prepared for this. The moment the planet shattered, he took everyone and disappeared, appearing on a huge fragment of the world nearby.

Everyone gazed at the shattered and disintegrating planetary world, and Huang Lingheng among them couldn't help but sigh:

"I never imagined, I never imagined that these civilizations could continue like this, this Chaos Forbidden Domain is simply too peculiar!"

Zhang Qingfeng, from the Strength Position of the Tarot Club, chuckled and interjected, "No, this can't even be called a continuing civilization; it's just a civilization barely clinging to life."

The Devil demon girl chuckled, "Brother Power is right. I don't think this kind of civilization can continue."

The middle-aged man on the Hierophant spoke thoughtfully, "Even if their civilization is barely clinging to life, their strength should not be underestimated. Fortunately, the Fool was able to connect our Creation World into one."

The other members of the Tarot Club nodded in agreement, reflecting on how the Fool's power had guided them.

Their individual Creation World were interconnected, essentially becoming one world.

This kind of "world" that integrates multiple civilizations is far more terrifying than simply accumulating them using a 1+1 algorithm.

The Fool didn't speak, but a faint laugh could be heard coming from beneath the mask.

His attention remained focused on the shattered and disintegrating planet. Just after it had broken down more than halfway, a ball of divine light emerged from it.

The Fool seized the opportunity, opened the package hanging from his cane, and the divine orb of light flew towards him.

As it flew over, it grew smaller and smaller, but its Divine Power became more and more vivid and intense, and it also had a sense of familiarity.

Even other members of the Tarot Club could hear that ethereal, divine shout emanating from it.

But in an instant, the ball of light flew into the Fool's package.

The Fool quickly pressed the opening of the pocket shut, and a thumping sound came from inside, as if something was trying to struggle out.

But within seconds, the noise completely disappeared, the Fool tied the bag shut, and the laughter coming from under the mask became much clearer.

Everyone witnessed this scene, and Zhiyue spoke up, "That was... a deity from the opposing world during our battle just now?"

Upon hearing Zhiyue's words, the others immediately realized why it felt so familiar—it was the deity they had just seen appear in the other world during their battle.

The Fool nodded and addressed everyone, "That's right, this is a deity from the world we just met, but I prefer to call it a remnant soul."

Listening to the Fool's words, Huang Lingheng imagined the scene of their Creation World fighting against that world.

The planetary world they were fighting against was this shattered and disintegrated one, but the battle did not take place on this planet.

Because there are no living beings or civilizations left on this planet, but the other side's gods still exist, though they are unaware of it, the Fool is quite certain of it.

Guided by the Fool, their Creation World connected and entered another dimension.

Inside, there was only this broken and disintegrated planet. They sensed and even saw the deities that existed on it.

And there broke out a great war, not a war against gods, but a war between civilizations.

As for where this planetary civilization that was destroyed came from, that's what Huang Lingheng mentioned about the strange things after he came out.

Under the influence of the opposing deity's power, that world instantly regained its civilization, including the creatures that existed within it.

It's just that both the civilization and the creatures there look incredibly fantastical.

And after these civilizations and creatures came into being, the gods disappeared, and remained there until they won their battle and left that space.

They all sensed something amiss; the civilization they were fighting seemed illusory, or perhaps created by divine power.

"The Fool, what's going on? Why are they called that? And what's the situation with the civilization we're fighting?" Huang Lingheng asked.

The Fool didn't hide anything. "A remnant soul is a part of a deity, but not a complete deity; it's more like the lingering remnant of a deity. The deity you defeated wasn't complete either."

"As for the civilization you encountered, it is indeed not real; it was created by that incomplete god. As for why this is so..."

At this point, the Fool smiled and said, "There are quite a few such planetary worlds in the Chaos Forbidden Domain Universe; you will understand for yourselves later."

As the Fool spoke, the others were filled with a myriad of thoughts: the incomplete god, the lingering resentment of the god...

The middle-aged woman in the Temperance position spoke up, "So what are you going to do with the remnants of souls you just collected?"

The Fool stated without hesitation, "To create a god who doesn't belong to any world."

"Don't worry, you can't control the remnant soul, much less absorb it and turn it into your own power. Strictly speaking, this isn't a deity."

The Fool then added, unhurriedly, a sentence that made many people swallow back the words they were about to utter.

As the Fool finished speaking, the shattered planet completely disintegrated, but a ball of light appeared in the very center.

Those with sharp eyes immediately recognized it. "That's... the Blank World Star Core!"

"Not only that, there's also a remnant of the World Power," someone added.

Just as everyone was excited, finally seeing something they could use, Qingxue's expression changed.

Leng Zimeng was standing next to her, noticed and asked, "Sister Xue, what's wrong?"

Qingxue said with a grave expression, "Something's wrong! I sense Shen Hui is in danger!"
