The setting sun casts its slanting rays, its afterglow spreading far and wide.

Cheng Shi had been sitting on the edge of the rooftop for a long time, deep in thought.

The content expressed by the silence must be very important, otherwise a silent puppet that never responds would never cooperate in replicating a real universe experience.

But what exactly does He mean?

Is it just like [Time], telling itself that it cannot corrupt the established order with its [silent] will?

But it was not Him who interrupted assimilation, but Himself. It was Himself who used His talent to climb out of the quagmire of assimilation. In this light, His assimilation was not a reminder at all, but a warning, a warning that Himself should not be assimilated.

But what exactly does assimilation mean here?

It certainly doesn't simply refer to the assimilation of "silence"; it must have a deeper meaning, which is what Cheng Shi finds most difficult to understand.

What can be associated with assimilation?

The silence of silence, the will to prosper, and... the tolerance of fate?

"......"

Let's leave the last one aside; fate isn't always forgiving.

Cheng Shi chuckled self-deprecatingly, truly unable to think of anything else that could...

etc!

Assimilation! [Prosperity] To whom has the power of assimilation been granted?

At that moment, Cheng Shi suddenly sprang to his feet, his face grave as he uttered a name:

"【Defilement】!"

Yes, if we're talking about assimilation, then [Defilement] is the one who understands assimilation best!

All desires in the world converge in the sea of ​​lust; who can escape its allure?

Does the word "silence" mean "defilement"?

When thinking takes the right direction, logic will quickly take shape.

Cheng Shi's last words undoubtedly received the approval of [Silence], otherwise He wouldn't have chosen that moment to cast the clown into the void. And those words were:

"Does wanting to know something come with the risk of being assimilated?"

I want it! Assimilation!

Desire! Resonance!

This is nothing short of defilement!

Cheng Shi suddenly realized that, considering the mystery of the Corruption, the gods' reactions, and the various speculations made by the clowns, he instantly understood that the secrets hidden within the Corruption might be even greater than he had imagined!

Could the sea of ​​desire hold the key to unraveling all mysteries, or even to glimpsing the path to the answer to [time]?

If that's the case, if I just go to the sea of ​​desire, will I be able to find the answer in the churning waves of desire?

Longjing is right; it seems I have no choice but to go on this journey to the Sea of ​​Desire.

Hmm? That's not right!

etc!

Thinking of this, Cheng Shi's body suddenly stiffened, and the words he had just said flashed through his mind again:

"If you want to know something, you have to be prepared to be assimilated..."

This statement sounds reasonable, but upon closer examination, doesn't it perfectly describe my current state?

If you want to explore the sea of ​​desire, you must... bear the risk of being assimilated by it?

At that moment, a thought suddenly flashed through Cheng Shi's mind, connecting all the related memories from before!

Delacour went to the Sea of ​​Desire, saw the Corruption, and then perished beside the Sea of ​​Desire.

The God of Joy must have gone with Delacroix, and according to the clowns' speculation, he most likely also saw [Corruption], which led to that desperate, fake ending!

Does that mean that the God of Joy has found the "answer" He wanted, and in the process has been corrupted and defiled?

This also aligns with Mrs. Freud's experience during the trials.

After betraying the theater, she joined the Brotherhood of Lust, and ultimately, under the influence of desire, she personally smothered the clown of Morning Delight, Maxford...

In that instant, Cheng Shi's heart pounded. Almost instinctively, he pulled out the dice and kept shouting at them. But then he realized that relaying the message would be slower than speaking directly, so he took out the mask again and tried to contact Le Zishen once more.

However, all the calls went unanswered.

This made Cheng Shi's heart sink completely.

He hadn't forgotten that at the end of the trial Zhen Xin recounted, a trial he himself had never experienced, Mrs. Freud committed suicide!

What could this be meant by?

No!

No, no, no!

That fake closing performance was nothing more than a scheme orchestrated by the God of Music to seize the power of the Primordial Chaos!

He must have succeeded, because he willingly fell into the trap and risked his life to summon the gaze of the [Primordial One]. Since he succeeded, why did he have to die?

No, He is not dead, He will not die!

The fears have only just returned; how could new fears arise?

At that moment, Cheng Shi really panicked. The despair and repression from the fake curtain call came over him again, catching him off guard.

Fortunately, after experiencing it once, Cheng Shi became more composed. He immediately pulled out the [Defilement] container, absorbed his emotions, and then squeezed out his mental energy to analyze how he should approach the secret in the sea of ​​desire.

The doctor is right. Even gods have fallen into the sea of ​​desire. For mortals to go in is just throwing themselves away.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to first ensure that you have a few powerful cards in your hand, and then select one or two from these cards to explore the truth in the sea of ​​desire.

Big Cat counts, Qin Xin counts, the departed [Memory] might be worth fighting for, and the [Corruption] who is obsessed with decay might also have a chance. Who else is left?

Annihilation?

The indefinite postponement of the issue has stalled this divine throne, something even Herobes is powerless to change, let alone himself, who only has one vessel.

Order or chaos?

It might work, but we'll have to see if the real chaos can truly make people recognize their own identities.
