Chapter 1339: Because You Are More Beautiful Than Anything Else
When Amber wakes up, the world falls asleep.
The whole world is like an insect frozen in amber.
It seems to be dead, yet there seems to be a glimmer of life.
As the liquid in the amber egg quickly leaked out, the barefoot white-haired girl gradually fell to the ground.
She stepped out of the broken amber egg and paced in this silent world.
Everything in front of me seemed to be shrouded in yellowed old photos.
I don’t know how long it took, or if it was just a moment—
Amber walked out of the Amber Forest and appeared in the Kingdom of Shadows.
She reached out her hand and touched the still river.
No matter what their original texture was, they turned into solid rock after time was stopped.
She chuckled and petted a passing moon deer.
It was originally running at full speed, but now all four limbs were curled up and it was leaping in the air.
She went to Guanchou Sea and gazed at the sea quietly.
Amber reached out and tidied the white hair on her temples, with some nostalgia in her eyes.
She traveled to the former Crystal Mountains—no longer the permafrost that sealed the Calamity Dragon, but a breathtaking expanse of emerald green mountains, lush with greenery and fragrant grass.
She walked towards the trial grounds.
One step, one world. He traveled through the overlapping worlds like a honeycomb. In just three steps, he found Aiwass sitting alone in the stone chamber.
But the "host" was not guarding here.
She looked at the promotion area with only eight chairs with nostalgia.
Amber walked up to Aiwass, stood on tiptoe and gently touched his head.
Then she disappeared from the trial field and walked to the next place.
Maybe it took a very long time...
But no one knows how long it took in that still time.
Amber traveled throughout the dream world, touching everything she had ever wanted to touch.
Finally, she came to the focal point.
Huan Tiansi was not wearing the pajamas he usually wore when he stayed here, but had changed into winged-style formal attire for the first time in a long time.
It was the same white robe he wore when he first saw Amber in the Tower of Babel.
He sat in front of a monitor that showed the dream Aiwass was currently experiencing—and he was drinking a Coke.
"……teacher."
Amber chuckled and sat down next to him.
She snuggled up to Huan Tiansi and whispered softly, "Long time no see."
——In fact, in a sense, Huan Tiansi should not be a complete Ai Shiping.
Because after such a long time, the original Ai Shiping could no longer hold on.
He was forced to cut off his original intention and memory like a snake's tail, and then merge it back after it fully developed. This process was like dialysis of the soul.
And when Ai Shiping could no longer hold on, he gave his name, his memory, and everything he had to the tail end of that generation.
But from another perspective, Huan Tiansi is the real Ai Shiping.
The snake that swallows its own tail...the tail it always devours is itself.
Because the "Snake's Tail" didn't actually kill or destroy the thoroughly corrupted Ai Shiping, instead choosing to devour him. The saying "the snake's tail devours the snake's head" refers to this incident. It's also because of this that the Huantian Division is now also contaminated.
The so-called "devouring" is actually just the re-integration after the split. When the snake tail understands everything, it often accepts its mission - the mission of being firewood.
Aiwass is gentle, and so is Ai Shiping. He deliberately uses words like "devour" to trick the snake tail of that generation into attacking and destroying himself.
——Just like what Huan Tiansi is doing to Aiwass now.
But Ai Shiping didn't expect... he still underestimated the kindness and light in his heart.
Even though he realized that this might lead to his own eternal damnation... after realizing the truth of everything, the Snake Tail of that generation still chose to desperately preserve all of Ai Shiping, allowing himself to merge with Ai Shiping again -
This is the present-day Huantiansi.
When he realized that since he had made this choice, the snake tails he would cut in the future would also make the same choice, he gave up the idea of "inheritance." Just like Aiwas now understood Huan Tiansi.
It was precisely because his spirit was on the verge of collapse when the current Huan Tiansi was born that he chose to alienate all his friends, no longer have any emotions in the cycle of reincarnation, and deal with everyone with absolute rationality and ruthlessness - so as not to be taken advantage of by the void.
And now, as Huan Tiansi has passed all the clean memories to Aiwass... he has no reason to continue to exist.
What he said to Aiwass, "Your host is dead at the door," was also true.
Because the host of Aiwas is Huan Tiansi himself.
The moment he entered the door, he had completely "killed" himself.
The Nine Pillars knew that Huan Tiansi would never truly kill Aiwass. No matter how jealous he was of Aiwass, no matter how venomous his words were, Aiwass was his only hope deep in his heart. It was also the reason he barely survived.
——No one wants to protect Aiwas more than Huan Tiansi.
As an apostle of the Heavenly Ring, everything Jacob did, the trials he arranged, and the operations he carried out, was all for this purpose. Therefore, he never had a single doubt or hesitation in his actions—he knew that he, too, was part of the Savior. He always stayed at Aiwass's side, responsible for intercepting any unexpected enemies.
But Jacob must never tell this secret to anyone, especially not to Aiwass.
He must keep the secret until his death.
Perhaps when everything settles, he and "Evans" can still be born from hope and miracles... but that's what he deserves.
But Huantiansi... has no reason to continue to exist.
Those words that he wanted to say to Aiwass but couldn't say, and must never say, were made into a promotion ceremony, allowing Aiwass to experience it all personally.
The transmission channel of "Whisper of the Void" is "Whisper".
Therefore, as long as you express your knowledge in words, you may pollute the listeners; you can obtain information by "seeing with your own eyes" without being infected.
In fact, even the "Whisper of the Void" that Aiwass heard was actually played by Huan Tiansi himself.
It was a kind of jealousy, a kind of bad taste, and also a careful reminder - it was just to tell Aiwass what it felt like when he was contaminated.
After all, how could Huan Tiansi bear to let Aiwas be contaminated by nothingness?
That was the only miracle he and Amber created through ten reincarnations!
"I know... you are the teacher."
Amber touched Huan Tiansi, who was frozen in time, as untouchable as a stone statue: "No one understands the teacher better than me...
"Teacher... I'm very tired. Are you tired? You should be tired too.
"Everything is coming to an end..."
As expected, Huantiansi did not react at all.
But Amber didn't show any regret.
She was already too tired.
Watching this world motionlessly for a hundred thousand years, witnessing tragedy after tragedy, yet unable to do anything, unable to even utter a single word...
Now, all journeys have come to an end.
She raised her hand slightly, and a wine glass appeared in her hand.
The glass contained not cola but golden sparkling wine.
That was the wine Ai Shiping had brewed for her—she loved the taste and had never forgotten it. She had secretly kept it... a glass of champagne that had traveled through a hundred thousand years and was still bubbling.
She raised her glass, and somewhat clumsily passed her arm around Huan Tiansi, who was guzzling his cola, and slowly drank the wine, sip by sip, as if she were drinking down all the memories of the past.
After she finished the glass of wine, she let go of his hand.
Let the transparent wine glass with a trace of golden wine remaining in it float in the air.
She left this there on purpose - to let Huan Tiansi know she had been there.
"Goodbye, teacher."
Amber walked around behind Huan Tiansi, hugged him, and whispered softly: "Maybe... we will see each other again soon.
"When a person dies, they become a phantom demon... What does a phantom demon become when it dies?"
She just quietly felt the time that did not pass.
After an unknown amount of time, she spoke.
“I’ll come…
"...paving the way for you, Sensei."
The next moment, the amber instantly turned into countless golden fragments.
Countless tiny specks of light crossed the entire dream world, seemingly slowly but actually quickly.
The tenth source river was constructed, and the water of the source river rushed out—
However, thanks to Amber's efforts, this river is not the "River of Nothingness".
Instead, it was twisted into "stillness" by amber.
Compared to nothingness, this is a kind of "downgrading".
From the ultimate "meaninglessness", it has been downgraded to "no progress", which has dissipated a considerable amount of power.
And this...
It is also a kind of paving the way.
As time passes again——
Huan Tiansi was looking up and drinking Coke, but suddenly he seemed to realize something and reached out to catch the wine glass that was about to fall.
At that moment, Huan Tiansi was stunned.
As countless memories flooded his mind... he looked at the wine glass in his hand. He watched as it gradually gained divinity and transformed into a fragment of the Celestial Master.
Amber-colored wine seeped out from the wall of the wine glass and fell into it drop by drop.
Huan Tiansi closed his eyes and touched the wine glass to his forehead.
"... Time, stand still..."
His voice trembled slightly.
This is the first time Huan Tiansi reveals his emotions.
Those were the stories he had told Amber and the poems he had recited to her.
Perhaps it is because of this poem that amber has the power to stagnate the world.
Only then did this world have a future...only then did this world have these ninety thousand years of reincarnation and ninety thousand years of torture.
"…Because you are more beautiful than anyone else."
There will be traces left of my days on earth.
It will not become nothing forever.
