Gu Qing San and Lady Fusi instinctively held their breaths.
The two of them silently stared at the figure.
"It's him" Lady Fusi said.
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
The figure circled around the black flame and said, "Master, you're a Heavenly Demon.
"Exactly as described in the intelligence … such a powerful [Order] is like a flower blooming in the wind, although it can bloom in the eternal night of the Apocalypse, it won't be able to win against the Apocalypse in just 10 seconds, I can only — —"
His tone became filled with killing intent: "At a certain point in the future, to prevent the Era of [Chaos] from fully descending, I will definitely change that future"
At this point, the sounds of battle could be heard from outside.
The Awaitings of two factions were clashing!
The figure listened carefully, then took out a small brown bag from his chest.
"Time is limited, fortunately, we've done everything we could and made such preparations"
While saying so, he opened the small bag and tossed a cluster of dark golden sand into the black flame.
Boom!
The black flame abruptly rose up, forming a faint humanoid silhouette.
It spoke with a confused voice: 「 Who is giving me another type of power? 」
After being mixed with the dark golden sand, the humanoid silhouette formed by the flame became increasingly unstable.
Numerous unique materials and substances were tossed out from its body, hovering in the air while giving off a dazzling glow.
The figure quickly chanted: 「 I shall bestow upon you the personality of a human. From now on, you shall possess false words, a cold and cowardly personality, and a cruel and merciless mindset, all the way until the moment you are sacrificed. You shall embrace the Era of [Chaos], becoming the final power of the Era's descent! 」
「 From now on, you shall accept a brand new self, a brand new mission! 」
The flame abruptly trembled, then completely retracted, causing the humanoid silhouette to also stabilize.
The humanoid silhouette replied.
The figure reminded him: 「 Keep in mind, you must fight against [Chaos], if you can't, then run away from it, until one day, you are brought to a place called the Spire world 」
「 And then? 」 the humanoid silhouette asked.
「 Embrace the Era of [Chaos], it will sense the presence I left on you, so it won't devour you for now 」
The man continued: "Once the Apotheotic Combat is over, the 'Harbinger of the Apocalypse' will appear, you must release all of your Prayers and infuse them into her"
"The power of will that you've collected for billions of years will be too much for her to bear, and she will have no choice but to call us."
"We will come here to devour the Prayers, recover to our peak state, and awaken once more"
"Got — — it — — — —" the human figure said.
Gu Qing Shan's eyes narrowed.
So that was how it was.
It turned out that Ye Ru Xi was tasked with such an important mission. She would act as a transfer point for the [Chaos] Awaitings to infuse billions of years worth of Prayers into them.
No wonder the Chaos Era valued her so much and wanted to protect her at all costs.
[Demon King Order], [Era of [Chaos]], [Path of Apotheosis], [Chaotic Bronze Palace].
Everything had already been arranged, once the Apotheotic Combat ended and Ye Ru Xi was brought back to the world of the Spire, it would immediately be activated.
At that time, not only would the complete era of [Chaos] descend, but even the Awaitings of the [Chaos] Faction would also be awakened!
Regardless of who it was that became the True Deity of [Chaos], against the Awaitings that created [Chaos], they would have no way of resisting.
The [Chaos] faction would then win this war that had lasted for billions of years!
They would destroy all worlds and all living beings, turning all existences into barren wastelands — — -
Until the Apocalypse would also come to an end.
These Awaitings …
Gu Qing Shan clenched her fists tightly, trying her best to control her killing intent.
After the man finished explaining, he nodded in satisfaction.
His gaze fell onto the void of space, staring at the precious treasures that had been tossed out from the [Order].
— — -these were all Dreamscape Soul Artifacts, treasures that came from the Awaitings.
"I can't bring these core [Order] Soul Artifacts out, otherwise, the other party would definitely notice"
He muttered, then took out a rectangular box.
The various treasures that had flown out were stored inside, sealed with several dozen secret techniques, no longer able to be sensed.
The man silently listened to the commotion outside, then spoke with a mocking tone:
"We've spent a lot of time and prepared a total of 3000 concealment techniques, I refuse to believe that you'll still be able to find it"
He casually walked to a corner of the room, crouched down, and placed the rectangular box on the ground.
The rectangular box quickly turned transparent, slowly sank into the ground, and was no longer visible.
"Gentlemen of the [Order] faction"
"You would come here every day to establish [Order], but you would never know that everything you've done had already become a stepping stone for [Chaos]"
"This is my silent disdain — — it will accompany you every single day, until the day the Era of [Chaos] descends"
Saying so, the man smirked triumphantly, then slowly stepped into the void of space and disappeared from the secret room.
One breath's worth of time later.
"Did he leave?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Yes" Lady Fusi replied.
She flew out, placed her hand on the ground, and chanted an incantation.
She took the rectangular box out from the ground.
Gu Qing Shan watched this and commented: "He replaced the [Demon King Order]'s core, no wonder there were so many problems after that"
"Indeed, with these cores, we still have hope" Lady Fusi's eyes were filled with hope.
She carefully held the rectangular box in her hand.
— — -that person probably couldn't have imagined that the entire process of him tampering with it had already been discovered by two people who came from 10 trillion years in the future.
Lady Fusi opened the rectangular box and stared at the treasures inside.
"When you sacrificed the [Demon King Order], it had already received the Prayers of countless living beings, but because it was waiting for the Era of [Chaos] to descend, it had remained dormant" Lady Fusi said.
"I also felt that it was strange, because it appeared to be very afraid — — even though it had already evolved to its peak" Gu Qing Shan commented.
Lady Fusi replied: "It was waiting to be brought back to the world of the Spire, waiting for the Apotheotic Combat path to end"
"Lady Fusi, do you have a solution?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Lady Fusi shook her head: "Even though the [Demon King Order] had been altered, it was still related to many things that had happened over 10 trillion years in the past. Once we try to alter it, the history of the past 10 trillion years would also be altered, we would also be affected by this chaotic flow of causality and be killed"
Gu Qing Shan thought briefly, then said: "We can avoid touching anything that happened over the past 10 trillion years, only changing it at the very last moment"
"You mean — — -"
"Indeed, that person had foreseen that the [Demon King Order] would end the Era of [Chaos], so we'll make this a reality"
Lady Fusi stared at him and said: "Continue"
Gu Qing Shan continued: "Can we use these core components to also tamper with the [Demon King Order], allowing everything to continue as normal, but abruptly change everything right after the Apotheotic Combat path ends?"
He made a slashing gesture and continued: "Just like an assassin, a critical strike at the most crucial moment"
Lady Fusi muttered: "Let me think about it …"
She fell into thought.
A few moments later.
She picked out a few Dreamscape Soul Artifacts from the rectangular box and tossed them into the black flames.
She chanted a series of mystical incantations, only stopping after a few dozen seconds.
"With my abilities, I cannot change this [Order] — — - that person only managed to change the [Order] that we created by bringing everything that the carriers of [Chaos] had prepared"
"But there's an old saying, it's easy to destroy, but hard to create"
"That's why I have a way to destroy their calculations"
Following her words, her long hair slowly turned white, her beautiful face slowly aged.
— — -even if it was only a very minor change to the [Order], even if she was an Awaiting, she still had to expend a lot of effort.
Gu Qing Shan supported her.
"I'm done"
Lady Fusi tiredly wiped the sweat off her forehead, then handed a Dreamscape Soul Artifact to Gu Qing Shan.
As Gu Qing Shan received it, she found that it was a Card.
A snow-white unicorn was drawn on the card. On the unicorn's neck hung a jade-green flute.
