Chapter 153 Chapter 153 The main text ends.
Then the throne of the God of Light faced two gloating faces.
Ian didn't seem angry, perhaps because everything was very logical. Even if he didn't like it, the facts would not change according to his will.
"Look at it this way," Su Cheng added calmly, "You can console yourself. My feelings for you are because I find you interesting, not because—"
"Yeah," he interrupted her, "that must be the same reason you drank the juice."
Su Cheng was silent for a moment. "Well, I do like this face, but before I saw it, it didn't belong to my fantasy because I couldn't imagine it."
Ian raised his eyebrows slightly, "So Kykleus is the embodiment of your fantasy."
Su Cheng: “…”
Su Cheng turned his head and looked at the God of Illusion. "Does he always like to make things difficult for himself? If I say yes, he will be unhappy. If I say no, I like that person's soul, he will definitely be unhappy too."
Metasir, still enjoying the show, winked at her. "Judging from your experiences in the Echo Plane, you knew him before me. So, what do you think?"
"……alright."
Ian waved his hand seemingly calmly, and the phantom of the ancient god disappeared into the air.
Su Cheng almost laughed out loud, "You are so stingy, Your Majesty the Supreme God."
"Stingy," Ian repeated. "I brought Charles to you, I hope you remember, and even if Jann cut me off from him, I didn't—"
Su Cheng: “?”
Su Cheng's pupils trembled, "You said Zhan En, you, ah?"
Su Cheng: “…”
Ian looked at her calmly, "Even though I wasn't sure how I felt about you at the time, I still didn't like it."
Su Cheng held his forehead, "I know you are all perverted, but I didn't expect you to, uh, forget it."
She was so used to sharing pleasures with the God of Joy that she no longer bothered to talk about privacy or anything like that.
Su Cheng: "...Anyway, I'm probably a pervert, so let's not talk about that. What's going on between you, Ailin, and those ancient gods? Were you two good friends before?"
"No, he and I weren't meant to be friends. We were just collaborators for a while. We did a lot of research together to split the power of light and darkness. Furthermore, his parents were devout believers of the Creator, but He never protected them. Therefore, he not only resented the ancient dragons that symbolized elemental magic, but also had little affection for the ancient gods. The World-Reflector guided me to godhood. After I gained power, I discovered the problems with the Source Fire and the Ether, and I also discovered that the ancient gods wanted to leave."
"Leave? Leave this universe?"
"Yes," he chuckled softly, "They are essentially spirits, making it easier for them to sense and pass through the gaps between worlds. Especially since they have shared some of their authority with us, this universe has even less constraints on them."
Su Cheng suddenly understood, "So you tried every possible way to trap them in the void. In order to prevent them from escaping, you promoted a large number of sub-gods. It is because those sub-gods were originally the followers of the ancient gods——"
"Yes," Ian said with a hint of admiration in his eyes, "After they were deified, their connection with the ancient gods was further strengthened."
"...They will be unable to escape, so they can only develop other countermeasures."
"Well, that's not entirely true. Logos really didn't want to leave early. They always regarded this as a mystery that needed to be solved."
Ian thought for a moment, "As for Metasir, I think He just wants to watch the show, so He's not in a hurry to leave. The other ancient gods also have their own attitudes. After all, some have fallen into a deep sleep directly—"
He let go of his hand, his fingertips lightly resting on her lower abdomen, outlining the outline of a tree in the air from a distance.
Su Cheng grabbed the slender fingers and asked, "Do you know that Jingyin Society is deliberately trying to provoke a war between the Church and the Esoteric Sect?"
"I know, and I can imagine the reason." He held her hand with his backhand. "If there hadn't been that war, this world probably wouldn't have been able to support you."
Ian paused, "If you hadn't received enough blessings, the Jingyin Society would definitely have started a war again. Now is the beginning, so in a sense, you not only saved the world, but also allowed many people who should have died to live."
Su Cheng looked at him dumbly, "...Okay. So do I need to try it now?"
"You can rest for a while," Ian said calmly, "It depends on your wishes. Anyway, this world can still hold on for a few more years—"
Su Cheng frowned, "Then I'll go take a look. My current physiological state may be closer to that of the dragon race. If I sleep for a while, maybe a long time will pass."
Ian looked at her in silence.
Su Cheng spread his hands and said, "Don't expect me to say what you want to hear."
"No," he sighed softly, "I was just thinking that because of your divine attributes, I'm not suitable to send you to the outermost void—"
Ian was still holding her hand, and the moment he finished speaking, the space around him was completely distorted.
They suddenly passed through countless dimensions and arrived at a narrow crack where the rules were broken.
Under your feet is a crystalline ground that is constantly dismantling and reassembling. Broken blocks separate and aggregate in the air, and sand-like light spots float in the air.
Su Cheng saw countless broken images flashing.
Unspeakable buildings and palaces are stacked in a way that defies geometry. The towers grow upside down from the ground, arches lead to their own backs, and the layers of spiral staircases form a ring.
She seemed to hear the rules of different dimensions collapsing, like multiple sharp friction sounds.
Someone tapped her shoulder gently.
The pale, slender hand rested on the shoulder, its joints distinct and well-defined, its outline exquisite, yet it contained enough strength to anchor the surface.
The noise in my ears suddenly turned silent.
Su Cheng turned around.
A god with black hair and black eyes stood beside her. His eyes, as cold and silent as the abyss of the icy sea, seemed to contain thousands of years of worries as he stared at her quietly.
He was wearing a thin black robe, and from under the hem of his robe emanated a pure dark shadow that swallowed up the light.
"……Thanks."
He said softly.
Su Cheng knew that this referred to the events in the Echo Plane, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
The Dark God didn't say anything more, but gently took her hand and kissed the back of her hand again.
At that moment, it was as if countless heavy curtains were lifted, and the darkness surrounding the god seemed to solidify into a long river, and the materialized power pierced through the space.
Then make a path.
When Su Cheng stepped into the passage, he felt like he was falling into a black abyss, or being thrown towards a collapsing singularity.
Countless strange scenes flashed before her eyes: stars burned to ashes, planes were destroyed amid the wailing of creatures, and new rules were born in the dust.
In the torrent of noise, time and space were crushed and distorted, losing their meaning.
They walked through the passage, as if they were walking in a bizarre maze.
Countless fragments of space rolled in like blades, but were blocked outside by invisible barriers. Occasionally, bizarre shadows flashed in the dazzling colors.
The journey seemed to last a long time, yet it also seemed to be just a moment.
When they left the passage, the Dark God's body turned into scattered gray light particles without any warning, and then condensed again in the next moment.
He looked at the eternal nothingness ahead, turned his head to look at her, and disappeared.
Su Cheng stood in the boundless silence, looking at the endless gray-black sea tide and the dense dust particles suspended in it.
The passage of time seems to become sticky and blurry.
Behind her was a dam of twisted laws, and before her was the true void, deeper and more ethereal than darkness, filled with a dead silence and coldness.
It's not the temperature, but the complete absence of life energy that makes the soul feel like it's about to freeze.
This place is really uncomfortable.
But she would not be hurt at all, so she suppressed her discomfort and carefully felt the dust of disorder.
——They are not only dust visible to the naked eye, but also noise at the level of laws.
It is like a never-ending electric current, the burning wreckage of magic and fighting spirit, and the trace of life and death of all things.
It is a whisper of the end and a sigh of decline.
Su Cheng carefully felt the trajectory of the dust particles and then tried to touch them.
She originally thought this would be very troublesome, but the moment she released her mental power, a certain resonance also burst out from her soul.
Two completely different laws are colliding and canceling each other out—
Obviously, the people who summoned her had carefully selected her and deliberately found a universe with opposite laws.
Coming from that world, she carries this power in her soul, and once she comes into contact with the Dust of Chaos, it will be brought out on its own.
In an instant, Su Cheng seemed to hear the melody of life beginning to play.
The elegiac roar that represented the end gradually disappeared, replaced by the original rhythm, and the gray was fading away.
Like a newborn azure light began to shine.
——That is the purest ether, the original form of basic energy.
Soon, that bit of blue began to spread steadily like a spark that set the field ablaze, becoming an ever-expanding field of light.
More and more dust is awakened, reorganized and reversed, composing a melody full of new life and hope in this world full of decay.
Su Cheng was quietly suspended in the original place, looking at the vast void centered on himself, where a glittering blue galaxy emerged, formed by billions of points of ether.
With the joy of new birth and tremendous vitality, they poured into the curtain of symbolic law and flowed into various planes through the cracks in it.
At the same time, she also saw the law itself.
The chain that supports tens of millions of planes, its operating veins, its building blocks, and even the shape of each node can all be clearly perceived in a miraculous way.
and--
She had thoroughly understood the energy that illuminated the universe, and she could even feel the source fire burning in the distant space.
If she wanted, she could also transform more Ether into Chaos Dust, which would simply reverse the previous process.
It seems that there are no secrets left in the world.
In a sense, there even seemed to be an impulse driving her to try to do some damage or destroy some of these planes.
But soon she felt that it seemed meaningless.
It would be better to make more changes quickly and then go back to have a good meal.
Su Cheng thought in a very un-saviorish way.
Only after she was sure that she had extended the life of the entire world by at least tens of thousands of years did she feel that she could take a break. After all, she was not unable to come back.
She decided to get some sleep.
Su Cheng followed the converging energy and left the void. Because the North and South continents needed the most ether, more energy would flow into that plane.
She soon returned to the northern continent and fell asleep peacefully on a meadow warmed by the sun.
“…”
Su Cheng wasn't sure how long he had slept, but when he woke up in a daze, it seemed like people were talking around him.
They spoke a language that was both strange and familiar.
"Stop arguing."
"I came here because she woke up!"
"She hasn't opened her eyes yet," said the deep, pleasant male voice. "Maybe she wants to sleep a little longer."
"Are you really Kykleus? Not Metasil in disguise?"
Those ancient and obscure word bytes gradually became clear, and Su Cheng realized that it was the language of the dragon clan.
She blinked and found herself lying on someone's lap. The muscles behind her head were firm and plump, and drenched in coolness.
Then he met a pair of cold and bright golden eyes.
Kai looked down at her, "Do you want to rest a little longer?"
Su Cheng touched his face, "It's okay——"
She glanced at a few other people.
Xiao Lan knelt beside him, her silver-white braids hanging down at her side, her frost-blue eyes full of smiles, "How do you feel?"
"I am fine."
Su Cheng sat up and saw the man next to Xiao Lan.
The man also had silver hair, his irises were so light in color that they were almost transparent, and he carried an aloof and indifferent air.
Su Cheng: “!”
Su Cheng: "You are the ancestor of water dragon..."
She turned to Xiao Lan suddenly, "You are the egg!"
The latter was stunned and blushed. "Ah, you saw me before I was hatched. Yes, I shouldn't have been born. It was my father who separated some of his authority—"
Su Cheng understood, "So you are the Ice Dragon King."
Xiao Lan was a little embarrassed. "Theoretically, yes, but the ice dragons can't be considered my descendants. Their ancestors are the ancient water dragons..."
Su Cheng looked at his father, the ancestor of the water dragon, and nodded gracefully.
She turned her head to look at the red-haired man a little further away. "...Speaking of which, why did the Dark God beat you up? And why are you so weak?"
The Fire Dragon Ancestor, who transformed into an imperial prince, looked a little depressed.
Pei'e folded his arms with a dark face, "Didn't your sweetheart lose too?"
"Ha," Su Cheng sneered, "He was outnumbered two to one, but you were defeated by Ailin alone."
Pei'e seemed annoyed, but there was nothing he could do about her. "...That human has a lot of power, and he attacked me! He was just trying to gain more power from us!"
Su Cheng looked at him doubtfully.
Pei E gritted his teeth and said, "What kind of look is that!"
"I don't know," Su Cheng looked up at the sky. "After all, I just saw you taking a shower by accident, but you seemed to have different ideas about it at the time. I'm not sure if I can still trust you."
Pei E: “…”
He didn't even look at the expressions of the other two white-haired men, but just subconsciously glanced at the Black Dragon King.
Those cold and stern golden eyes were looking at him thoughtfully.
"By the way," Su Cheng turned around and looked at the person behind him, "Although this is just your incarnation, his figure is not as good as yours-"
Kai's lips curled slightly. "If you want to know, His true form is also smaller than mine."
Su Cheng raised two fingers in a victory sign, then retracted them. "But that doesn't matter. You are definitely the best."
The ancient dragon kings left one after another.
She leaned on Kai's shoulder and rubbed the side of his face, "Have you ever thought about what would happen if I couldn't do it?"
"I'll find a way to take you away," he tilted his head closer to her and whispered in her ear, "To another universe, even though that might be a little troublesome."
"Um?"
"...I haven't researched how to cross the void and enter other universes. Although I can do it now, it would probably be smoother if I had more time."
"Ha," Su Cheng understood. "It's okay. We'll figure it out slowly. We have plenty of time now. Anyway, I just need to come back regularly to reverse the ether."
She was silent for a few seconds, then said, "It suddenly occurred to me that there are probably many people who want to talk to me."
"Well," Kai glanced at her, "or maybe you actually want to talk to them."
Su Cheng smiled and hugged his neck, "You understand me so well, I love you so much."
Kai sighed helplessly and gently touched her head, "Me too."
He still didn't stand up, so Su Cheng leaned over and kissed him.
Under the clear blue sky, the green grass in the fields swayed like waves, and the figures of the two people gradually overlapped and merged into one.
