"I'm clearly a human … I have parents who raised me, so how did I become the Heavenly Darkness God?" An Lin didn't know how to face this reality.
If he really was a representative of the Heavenly Darkness God and wasn't a human, then how was he going to face his family and friends in the future?
"The paramount Heavenly Dao that rules over darkness and possesses the ultimate power to engulf everything and restart everything? So bad * ss, so cool! " Lan Xiaoni's focus was not on this at all. Instead, she became even more excited upon hearing the Heavenly Sea God's words, and she grabbed onto An Lin's hand.
"What's the point of being powerful? I'm not a human anymore …" An Lin spoke with difficulty.
"So what if you're not a human? I'm not a human either! " Lan Xiaoni gripped tightly onto An Lin's hand, as if she was trying to calm him down.
"There are countless beings that aren't human. Big Boss An Lin, I don't care if you're a chicken, a dog, or a pig," Lan Xiaoni said with a firm expression.
An Lin's lips twitched. "Can't you use a better analogy?"
Lan Xiaoni leaned her head against An Lin's arm with a wide grin. "No matter what your identity is, you'll always be my Big Boss."
For some reason, An Lin's heart stirred slightly upon hearing this.
However, he was still quite confused and uneasy about his identity.
"I know what you're worried about." The Heavenly Sea God looked at An Lin with his eyeless head. "Are you worried that you'll no longer be you after you become the Heavenly Darkness God?"
An Lin didn't deny the Heavenly Sea God's words and nodded lightly.
The Heavenly Sea God splayed his hands open. "You're An Lin, and you're also darkness. This has been your identity from the moment you were born.
"Otherwise, why do you think you possess the Tian Ming Dao Physique? That's just a manifestation of the Heavenly Darkness God's power of darkness.
"Also, why do you think you're able to absorb the powers of the other Heavenly Gods? You're just using the devouring nature of darkness to your advantage.
"You're afraid of becoming the Heavenly Darkness God? What a joke! You were the Heavenly Darkness God from the very beginning! "
The Heavenly Sea God's words were like a bolt of lightning that completely jolted An Lin awake.
That's right … Was there any point in worrying about what would happen if he became the Heavenly Darkness God …
He was already the Heavenly Darkness God!
An Lin looked at his palm, and his eyes lit up. "I don't need to worry about these problems at all. I've always been the Heavenly Darkness Goddess, and I've been using the power of the Heavenly Darkness Goddess from the very beginning …"
"I'm glad that you understand this, Brother Darkness." A mouth suddenly appeared on the Heavenly Sea God's featureless face, and it slowly cracked open into what he thought was a benevolent smile.
"It's just like how I am the ocean. Although I am a part of the Heavenly Axiom and hold supreme authority, I have been me ever since I gained self-awareness. Even if the future changes, as long as my 'self' does not disappear, I will not change."
Lan Xiaoni felt like something was amiss as she listened to their friendly exchange.
But the exchange continued.
"Then why don't I have a divine ring of darkness? Why can't I use all of my power of darkness? "An Lin asked with a perplexed expression.
"That's because your power is incomplete, not complete …"
The Heavenly Sea God revealed everything that had happened all those years ago.
"The Purple Star's first step in destroying the heavens was to seize darkness. Only with darkness could they end everything and create a new Heavenly Dao …
"Thankfully, they failed. However, unfortunately, darkness was also severely wounded, and its power of laws fell from the heavens. The power of laws that represented dao was severely damaged, and it transformed into a life form that reincarnated into you …"
He looked at An Lin with a serious expression before continuing, "There's also something peculiar within your body. I can't see through it, but it's repairing your power of darkness through various methods."
An Lin's heart jolted upon hearing this. Could it be that the Heavenly Sea God was referring to was the system?
The system was repairing the power of darkness?
The Heavenly Sea God continued, "Furthermore, I've carefully analyzed each and every one of your battles. As such, I also know that that thing can use a special method to forcefully draw upon the power of darkness within your body by overdrawing on something within you …"
An Lin fell silent upon hearing this.
Lan Xiaoni immediately grew anxious upon hearing this, and she immediately asked in a panicked voice, "What do you mean by forcefully drawing upon something within Big Boss An Lin's body?"
The Heavenly Sea God turned to Lan Xiaoni. "Theoretically speaking, I'm your Big Boss, right?"
"I only have one Big Boss, and that's An Lin!" Lan Xiaoni clung onto An Lin's arm with a stubborn expression, refusing to bow down to evil.
The Heavenly Sea God shook his head. "Then your Big Boss should know what I mean by forcefully drawing upon the power of darkness."
Lan Xiaoni turned to An Lin with concern etched on her face.
"It's fine." An Lin pinched Lan Xiaoni's soft cheeks with a comforting smile. "It's just that my power will decrease a little every time I use my power of darkness. It's no big deal."
"Really?" Lan Xiaoni was still very concerned. Her woman's sixth sense told her that things weren't as simple as they seemed.
"Really." An Lin looked directly into Lan Xiaoni's eyes. "How can you not believe what Big Boss says?"
"I believe you. I believe you, alright?" Lan Xiaoni yielded.
In reality, she would listen to anything An Lin said.
Even if it was an extremely excessive request, she would still do it.
This was the self-cultivation of a little brother.
"Thank you for answering my questions, Brother Sea," An Lin said in a polite manner.
"You're welcome. We're best friends." The Heavenly Sea God smiled and said, "You'll find out if you can continue to awaken some things."
An Lin's lips twitched imperceptibly as he looked at the countless droplets of liquid exuding terrifying energy fluctuations behind the Heavenly Sea God. Is this how you greet your best brother?
"Brother Sea, you've told me so much, so you must have something to say to me, right?" An Lin asked. If the Heavenly Sea God wanted to wage a war, there was no need for him to waste so much time explaining things to An Lin.
"Brother Darkness knows me best." A smile appeared on the humanoid water creature's face, but it was actually a little horrifying. "Then let me have a heart-to-heart talk with you …
"Light and Earth want to destroy the human race and unleash divine wrath in order to eliminate this threat.
"Life and the heavens want to destroy all living beings on the Tai Chu Continent in order to establish a new cycle of life and create new life."
"I actually don't agree with what they're doing!"
An Lin and Lan Xiaoni's expressions both shifted upon hearing this, as if they had heard something unbelievable. They stared intently at the Heavenly Sea God, trying to determine whether or not he was telling the truth.
"All of the Heavenly Gods and all of the living beings in this world think that I'm on the side of destroying the human race, but they're all wrong. That's all fake! I'm just putting on a show for them!"
