In reality, at a cemetery in an unknown province or city.
As night fell, the last stars shone faintly, and the vast cemetery was completely silent, devoid of any light.
In the pitch black, sixteen large tombs could be vaguely seen lined up in the center of the cemetery.
【Life】, 【Degeneration】, 【Civilization】, 【Chaos】, 【Existence】, 【Nothingness】... Except for the fourth tombstone which has no name, the names of the other fifteen gods are engraved on the tombstones.
Zhang Jizu fulfilled his "wish" and buried the gods here.
but!
This Zhang ancestor worship is not the same as that Zhang ancestor worship. Although this cemetery also bears the surname Zhang, it is not the Zhang of Cheng Shi's world.
But the figure standing silently in the cemetery at this moment was indeed Old Zhang Mi from Cheng Shi's world.
He stood before a brand-new tombstone, which stood in the shadow of the [Death] tombstone. The carvings on this tombstone were identical to those on the [Death] tombstone, only slightly smaller, and it looked like the tomb of some heir to [Death]...
A friend has just been buried, and the deceased are deeply saddened.
Zhang Jizu stood in front of this tombstone for a long time, so long that even the few remaining stars in the night sky slowly faded before he left without saying a word. He walked along the long path of tombstones and came to another broken tombstone, where he stood again.
The shattered tombstone is hidden in the shadow of the [Fraud] tombstone. It was newly broken today, with ash and gravel scattered all over the ground, and it hasn't been cleaned up yet.
Zhang Jizu has no intention of cleaning up; this is not his cemetery, and he has no right to disturb it.
The cemetery owner didn't come to clean up, not because he didn't want to, but because he had already been buried in the smaller "death" grave.
That's right, Zhang Jizu in this world is dead.
He collapsed in this cemetery in front of Zhang Jizu.
This scene greatly shocked Zhang Jizu. He remembered that just a few hours earlier, when the sun was still setting, the two of them were admiring the masterpieces in the cemetery in the afterglow. But as they walked, Zhang Jizu led him to the small grave of "Death" that they had just seen.
The other person pointed to the tomb and asked him:
"how?
The will of God has manifested as a giant skull, and we are all small skulls beneath His feet.
Now that my benefactor has fully embraced his own will and become a monument, is it too much to ask that I carve myself a smaller, identical tombstone?
At that moment, Zhang Jizu was stunned. He was thinking that the skull formed by the "death" and the small skull under the base were of vastly different sizes, but the two steles you carved were too similar in size.
Before he could even utter a sound, the person next to him collapsed in front of him with a "thud".
[Death] The divine power erupted violently, surging in all directions like a world-ending tide. For a moment, the cemetery resonated with divine power, shining brightly. But the next second, everything returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
Only a new grave and another broken tombstone remain.
Zhang Jizu was stunned. He watched as the divine power-driven cemetery array buried the body of [Death] Zhang Jizu into the tomb. His mind was buzzing. It wasn't until the tombstone settled again that he realized that another version of himself had actually... died.
Dead!?
In this world where all gods have vanished, who can kill a god silently?
Although he was a gravedigger like himself, he was also [death]!
A true god who holds the power of death actually died in his own cemetery, right in front of his own tombstone!
This horrific scene completely shattered Zhang Jizu's composure, causing him to retreat rapidly, away from the tombstone, filled with shock and uncertainty, panting heavily. But soon, as he hid in the bushes, his breathing gradually subsided, because he suddenly understood the other person's death.
Zhang Jizu was terrified, his eyes narrowed in disbelief.
To die in someone else's place!
[Death] is not being killed, but dying in someone else's place!
This is indeed one of the gifts bestowed by [Death]. After all, choosing the offerings to be made is the right of the true God [Death]. But for whom would He die in His place?
The answer is actually very simple and obvious.
Cheng Shi.
The reality of this world!
In that instant, Zhang Jizu suddenly realized [death]. Zhang Jizu had long ago foretold His death; He had said:
"It's okay, we can pay it back eventually. He can, you can, and I... can too."
Yes, Cheng Shi, who was deceived and used to make a mistake against the clown, is atoning for his sins. He also atoned for his sins by bringing back the answer from the real universe and leading the world to destruction. So, shouldn't the other self in the other world, that Zhang Jizu who is "death", also aton for his sins?
No, He was also atoning for His sins, which is why He said, "I can too."
He knew that when the opportunity came, Cheng Shi, the fraudster, would definitely go to atone for his sins, so He had already exchanged his own life for Cheng Shi's.
When Cheng Shi, the fraudster, died, Zhang Jizu, the deathster, chose to die in his place.
He gave his own life to save Cheng Shi's life once again!
He redeemed himself by returning to the embrace of death, but left a deep impression on Zhang Jizu from another world.
Zhang Jizu narrowed his eyes, his expression unusually solemn.
If Cheng Shi from the "Fraud" world is dead, then what chance does Cheng Shi from the original world have of surviving?
The salvation plan failed?
No!
He didn't know, dared not think about it, and dared not guess.
All he knew was that he had to go back, back to that world, to confirm whether the world was alright, whether the clowns were alright, and whether Cheng Shi was alright.
...
The real universe, unknown location.
The two wandering figures suddenly sensed something, exchanged a glance, and immediately flew off in a certain direction.
