The white light faded, and a Red Lotus halo floated up and gently branded itself onto Ji Dong's forehead. The Soul Vortex returned to the main body, and in the next moment, the other soul quietly dissipated in the air. With a smile, tears, unwillingness, and reluctance, it quietly dissipated from the peaceful core world.
The magma lake kept bubbling and bursting, as if it was mourning for everything that had happened before it. A strange red halo enveloped the unconscious body. The illusory red lotus halo enveloped his body for the last time, bringing along the familiar red light and quietly leaving the core world that no longer had an owner.
After an unknown amount of time, Ji Dong slowly woke up from his coma. The glaring sunlight caused him to squint. When he felt the warmth in the air, he couldn't help but feel that everything that had happened before was just a dream. The battle on Holy Evil Island, the battle between the Flaming Bar and the Asura God, how great would it be if they were all just a dream?
He flipped over and sat up. He didn't feel the slightest bit of discomfort, and his body was in a very normal state. He was in a small forest surrounded by tall trees, and he had been lying in the grass in this forest.
Am I dead, or have I arrived in another world? Ji Dong sat there in a daze. Memories surged wildly, and a strong sense of sadness and uneasiness caused him to shiver. He abruptly stood up from the ground.
At this moment, a faint golden-red light suddenly attracted his attention. When he looked down, he saw a total of nine faint golden-red lights flashing on the grass around him. They seemed to be shining because he was awake.
When Ji Dong squatted down again and took the nine lights into his hand, his heart couldn't help but tremble violently.
It wasn't a dream. Everything that had happened before was not a dream. These nine golden-red lights were clearly nine lotus seeds, the lotus seeds of the Flaming Bar's Natal Red Lotus. In that instant, Ji Dong felt his head spin, and he fell to the ground. He looked at the nine lotus seeds in his hand, and tears streamed down his face.
The faint Red Lotus brand on his forehead glowed. As if touched by his awakening, a familiar voice echoed in Ji Dong's mind.
"Ji Dong, are you awake? When you wake up, you'll trigger the lotus seeds and this memory brand I left by your side. You little fool, how could I let you sacrifice your soul to save me? These nine lotus seeds are my last gift to you. Protect them well. When you need them, they will help you. You must be crying because of my departure. Don't be like this, okay? I want to see you happy, to see you smile. "
"My love, I know your character too well. Don't do anything stupid, because you still haven't done what you promised me. Although I'm no longer in this world, my divine sense will definitely be watching you from another world. If you can use an exceptional wine from the Wine Register to mourn me every year for the next ten years, then after ten years, I'll allow you to come find me. This is my final thought. Help me fulfill it, okay? I don't have time, but I believe that this won't be the end, but a new beginning. You still have too many things to do. You are the hope of the Radiant Five Elements Continent. I don't want to see you give up these responsibilities because of me. If that happens, you won't be the Ji Dong I like. I'm leaving, I'm really leaving. I can't bear to part with you, I can't bear to part with you, I can't bear to part with you, I can't bear to part with you … "
The voice of the Flaming Bar gradually faded. In front of Ji Dong's blurred eyes, he seemed to see that perfect figure again.
"No, don't … don't leave me, Flaming Bar, I beg you, don't leave me …" Ji Dong rushed forward, trying to catch that blurred figure, but his body could only fall to the ground. There was no Flaming Bar in the air, only a quiet nothingness.
The unbearable pain brought about by the parting of life and death almost caused Ji Dong's strong heart to collapse in an instant. His hands had already dug deep into the soil. The pain caused the mana in his body to fluctuate unstably. The leaking mana of the ultimate dual fire caused the plants around him to rapidly wither.
It was also at this moment that Ji Dong suddenly recalled the words that Old Prophet left for him when he first met him: "Chaos awakens in the Flaming Bar. The God will bring endless sorrow. The moment of extreme pain is also the moment of breaking out of the cocoon and being reborn. Illusion, reality. The soul struggles in the Flaming Bar, shattering in the Flaming Bar for eternal life. When the Flaming Bar reappears in the mortal realm, the Will of Heaven shall change. Nothingness, illusion, emptiness. The endless future cannot be seen. I only hope that the ending is not a tragedy."
Ji Dong's spirit was suddenly lifted. He abruptly sprang up from the ground as if he was a little neurotic. He muttered those words repeatedly, but the bloody tears in his eyes did not stop. He said, "Chaos awakens in the Flaming Bar. That's right. It was the Flaming Bar that helped me awaken the power of Chaos." Ji Dong had understood the meaning of the first sentence a long time ago.
However, he only understood the meaning of the second sentence now.
"The God will bring endless sorrow."
Wasn't it referring to the arrival of the God of Slaughter, Shupnus, and the killing of the Flaming Bar by the enforcers of the Realm of the Gods? Old Fate's words had come true. Endless sorrow, truly endless sorrow … Ji Dong thought back to the look of pity in old Fate's eyes before he died, and he finally understood why he was so sad. He was sad for himself!
"The moment of extreme pain is also the moment of breaking out of the cocoon and being reborn."
Breaking out of the cocoon and being reborn? Can I really break out of the cocoon and be reborn? Without the Flaming Bar, what else is there? What else is there? Without her, I have already lost everything.
"Illusion, reality, the soul struggles in the Flaming Bar, shatters in the Flaming Bar, and is reborn in the Flaming Bar. When the Flaming Bar returns to the human world, the will of the heavens will change. Nothingness, illusion, emptiness. I can't see the endless future. I only hope that the ending is not a tragedy."
Nothing else was important to Ji Dong. When he read the sentence, when the Flaming Bar returns to the human world, he abruptly restrained his emotions. Returns to the human world? Returns to the human world? The Flaming Bar that Old Prophet mentioned, is it my Flaming Bar? In other words, my Flaming Bar still has a chance to return to the human world?
As if grasping at a life-saving straw, Ji Dong suddenly leapt up and roared towards the sky, "Lie … Flaming … Flaming … Flaming … Flaming … Flaming …"
All his strength was channeled into these three roars. The death of the Flaming Bar was a huge blow to him. With a loud splat, blood spurted out from his mouth. Ji Dong's body fell heavily onto the ground and he fainted once again. Perhaps, fainting was the best option for him. At least, he could temporarily forget about the pain.
…
The Realm of the Gods.
In the illusory space, everything was filled with blurred colors. Right in the middle of the blurred colors, two halos of light, one black and one white, floated silently. They were the center of the blurred colors.
In each of the black and white halos, there was a figure floating in the air. The figures' appearances couldn't be seen clearly, but it was hard to tell whether they were 100 meters tall, 1,000 meters tall, or 10,000 meters tall. Just like the black and white halos that surrounded their bodies, they were the core of this place.
"Kindness, can you tell me why this is? What kind of power could make a Second-level God sacrifice his life for a human? Don't you think it's ridiculous that the human would be willing to sacrifice his body and soul to save this God? "A strange voice came from the black pillar of light. There was a hint of demonic charm in the strange voice.
A gentle yet soothing voice came from the white pillar of light. "Evil, this is love. It was the power of love that gave them such courage. Whether they were humans or Gods, they had already comprehended the true meaning of love. Because of this, they were able to defeat Shupnus."
"Love?" A disdainful snort came from the black pillar of light. "What is love? Kindness, you like to use these illusory things to deliberately mystify things. I don't believe this love you're talking about. Humans have seven emotions and six desires. In the face of different desires, humans will have completely different reactions. This so-called love is nothing in the face of certain desires. Humans, especially men, have universal love when it comes to emotions. Their biological structure determines that it's impossible for men to be single-minded. In terms of physiology, men's desires are ten times that of women's. You should know this better than me. "
The voice sighed softly. "Evil, do you know why you've never been able to surpass me? It's because everything you know is too philistine. In my opinion, in this world, there is only one power that is invincible, and that is love. The power of love is endless. Whether it's man or god, even you and I, it's impossible to change the direction of true love. "
"Bullsh * t, Kindness. Don't try to scare me. Believe it or not, if that human called Ji Dong met a woman more beautiful than the Flaming Bar, he would also have a change of heart. Love is nothing in the face of desire." The voice in the black pillar of light seemed to be somewhat angered.
"Good, Evil, why don't we make a bet? Our lives in the Divine Realm are too dull. This is a good time to add some fun. " The voice in the white pillar of light was still as elegant and ethereal as before. It was not affected by the emotions of the voice in the black pillar of light.
"Alright, let's bet. What's the wager?" The voice in the black pillar of light had a faint hint of excitement. Just as the voice in the white pillar of light had said, their days here were too boring and depressing.
The voice in the white pillar of light said, "Let's talk about it later. The Asura and the others are here. Let's deal with this first."
In the blurry world of light, a red, a green, and a gray light floated over. When they arrived in front of the black and white pillar of light, they simultaneously stopped and transformed into three pillars of light. However, compared to the black and white pillars of light, they were slightly smaller.
Three different voices, two men and one woman, sounded at the same time. "Greetings, Godkings.
The voice in the black pillar of light said, "Alright, since we're so familiar with each other, there's no need to bring over the customs of humans. Asura, Grim Reaper, Goddess of Life, you should already know about this matter. Tell me what you think."
Yes, these three pillars of light were the three Godkings, the Asura God, the Grim Reaper, and the Goddess of Life. In the Divine Realm, they were not only powerful Main Gods, but also Law Enforcers. In front of them, the figures in the black and white pillars of light were the two Godkings of the Divine Realm — the God of Good and the God of Evil. The two Godkings and the three Law Enforcers formed the Divine Realm Committee. All matters in the Divine Realm were decided by them.
When there was a disagreement, the Divine Realm Committee would vote. The three Law Enforcers each had one vote, while the two Godkings each had two. However, if the three Law Enforcers' opinions were unanimous, they had the right to veto the decision of the other two Godkings. Of course, this kind of situation had never happened before in the Divine Realm. It wasn't that the three Law Enforcers didn't dare to oppose the two Godkings, it was because the two Godkings, who respectively represented good and evil, almost never had a unanimous opinion. Once they agreed, it proved the accuracy and importance of the matter. How could the three Law Enforcers oppose it?
The Asura God in the red light said in a low voice, "Two Great Zen Kings, Grim Reaper, Goddess of Life, I was not strict enough, allowing the Killing God Shupnus to descend to the Divine Realm to enforce the law without the approval of the Divine Realm Committee. Please punish me." His voice was very cold, but compared to the Killing God Shupnus, he was much, much calmer. In the Divine Realm, the Asura God's position was absolutely transcendent. He was also the head of the three Law Enforcers, and even the two Godkings had to give him some respect.
The God of Kindness said indifferently, "Asura, before coming here, you should have already investigated Shupnus. Tell me the result."
The Asura God said, "One day in the Divine Realm is one year in the Human Realm. It has been at least a thousand years since a Second Level God has caused trouble in the Divine Realm. As for Gods below Second Level, the Divine Realm's Law Enforcers have the authority to directly enforce the law. They only need to report to the Committee after enforcing the law. Shupnus has been strict in enforcing the law for many years, so he is used to directly enforcing the law. Even if the other party is a Second Level God, he still acted on his own. The evidence is conclusive, and as the Law Enforcer in charge of him, I am also responsible.
I choose to avoid this matter. "The Evil God said," That brat Shupnus has always been very arrogant. In the past, several Godkings came to complain to us. This time, it can be considered a punishment for him. The divine sense of a Second Level God cannot be completely destroyed, there will always be a mark left behind. Let him be punished in the Fire God's Sword for a thousand days. "
The Asura God was startled, punished for a thousand days? The Evil God said a thousand days in the Divine Realm, which was also a thousand years in the Human Realm.
