This universe has indeed become quite lively.
The various races that multiplied and proliferated grew stronger day by day over the long years. They called this world the Great World of Celestial Evolution and the Celestial Star Sea. Those worlds that were just born on the edge were called Small Worlds.
Mu doesn't care how the world changes. He has occasionally gone to the human world or the small world to play on a whim, but most of the time, he just lazily finds a place to stay and sleep. He won't look for Xun, and Xun won't think of looking for him either.
Qi once said that once the universe becomes lively, they will no longer feel bored.
Xun didn't know what boredom, loneliness, or solitude felt like, but in the endless time after Qi's death, Xun would often stay quietly in this universe filled with his presence, lost in thought.
Do not seek.
Xun had promised Qi many things, but when it came to the last thing—his name—Xun refused. He still didn't understand why he had blurted out that he wanted to be called Xun; he just felt... Qi shouldn't have just left like that.
Xun, Mu, and Qi, the three of them have lived together for so long, how can we suddenly lose one of them?
Xun thought that was what she thought, but Mu said that if it were him who left, Xun wouldn't be so sad; just like when Qi left, Mu didn't feel anything.
I can't figure it out, is he sad right now?
He had witnessed the sorrow of many living beings; they would cry, make strange expressions, and even say that they felt pain, yet Xun never felt any discomfort.
He would only occasionally, subconsciously, spread out his will, which he had already called divine consciousness, as if someone would suddenly leap over and roll around on his divine consciousness.
He would only call out "Qi" occasionally when he came to his senses, as if he were calling out to Qi every time he took Qi out to play and was about to leave.
He was just... he was just a little unaccustomed to it, but he didn't think he was sad.
This is longing, missing, remembrance, and unforgettable memories, not sadness.
...He was thinking of him.
The beings of this world call him and Mu gods. Mu once told the beings his title, so he is called Mu Feng. However, Xun's name has never been told to the other beings, so all beings believe that it is enough to call him the Dragon God.
The Dragon God and the Phoenix God protected the incredibly weak universe through its very first days.
Afterward, the universe gradually grew stronger, and it began to nurture its own gods, making the rules more explicit.
These gods refer to the guardian dragon god, the creator phoenix god, and the creator god as the three ancestral gods, while they themselves are the new gods. The ancestral gods are high above, while the new gods regulate the laws, help the universe develop more steadily, maintain the stability of the world, and at the same time seek more ways for the universe to continue to grow.
The new gods do not have the ability to survive in chaos, but they are incredibly powerful within the universe. They can divide planes, project small worlds, and let these small worlds evolve and calculate, becoming real worlds before merging into the endless starry sea of the Great World of Heavenly Evolution, thus becoming a member of the universe.
More and more beings filled the universe and stars. Some of them learned cultivation methods from some of Mu's creations that contained his bloodline and gained all sorts of strange abilities. Others began to study the laws and theorems and then used these things to create magical tools and potions.
The universe gradually no longer needed the Dragon God's constant watch over it.
He would occasionally return to the chaos, but very close to the Tianyan Star Sea, where he would slumber.
He would feel that Qi is still there.
Because the entire universe is filled with the aura of enlightenment.
However... the longer time goes on, the larger the universe becomes, and the weaker Qi's aura becomes.
Xun's dragon egg had not yet hatched, but the little life inside was growing steadily. The passage of time had made Xun lose his sense of time, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with the egg hatching so slowly.
Later, when cultivators reached a certain level, their life characteristics changed, and their lifespan became as long as that of gods. The most outstanding among them were called immortals, the next were demons, and the least outstanding were spirits.
To accommodate these beings, the new gods jointly created a separate plane, giving rise to the concept of ascension. Those beings that might damage the universe, whether living beings or exceptionally powerful mechs, would undergo the ascension process to reach that plane and begin a new life.
The realm of gods, the realm of immortals, the realm of mortals; gods, immortals, demons, monsters, spirits, and mortals—this was the original Three Realms and Six Paths of the Great World of Heavenly Evolution, excluding smaller worlds.
As Qi's aura weakened, Xun gradually began searching for places with a strong Qi aura in various planes of the Three Realms and Six Paths, and even in small worlds, to rest and slumber.
He would feel that Qi is still there.
Perhaps the long years have blurred the concept of time, but Xun's memories have not faded in the slightest. Even though Qi has been dead for a very long time, the scenes of him rolling around on Xun's body, encountering danger, enthusiastically saying that he wanted to name Xun, and even the scene of him carefully rubbing against Xun when he was just born are as clear as yesterday.
Xun now understands that any place where the lips touch the skin is called a kiss, and giving a kiss is either out of politeness or out of affection.
Was Qi expressing affection at that time?
Later, during the long period of missing Qi, Xun seriously considered whether he should return the same kiss to Qi after finding him again, to express that he also loved this companion very much.
Since Qi had expressed his affection in that way, Xun felt that he should reciprocate.
