It was all like a dream, but the feelings it brought were so real. Adele looked at her palm; Jing Yan’s final warmth still lingered. The girl was silent for a long time before she finally came back to her senses.
But she didn’t have much time to waste, so she quickly followed Shirley and Jing Yan’s arrangements, trying to awaken the last soul fragment of the Creation God in her spiritual realm. In fact, having come this far, Adele had already realized that it wasn’t the Creation God’s soul fragment, but her own spirit that had achieved all these miracles.
Of course, it was undeniable that the Creation God’s soul fragment was the most intricate thread intertwined with her fate, bringing her an inescapable causality.
“After this causality is settled, I will live happily ever after with everyone,” Adele murmured, even though she knew these were famous last words. She simply didn’t believe in fate.
In the night sky, the girl’s star became brighter and brighter. On the battlefield outside the world, the Lord of Heaven, Yawei, seemed to sense something. God showed Her wrath. It turned out that Jing Yan also held an important place in Her heart. The balance in God’s will was disrupted.
The enraged Lord of Heaven would rather be injured than to strike down one of the three demigods. One could imagine how arrogant the Lord of Heaven, Yawei, once was. She actually attempted to single-handedly deal with all the strongest in the world, plus the conscious resistance of the world barrier, without being harmed at all.
And now, Jing Yan’s end was the price She paid for her arrogance! But She still couldn’t understand. Why did Jing Yan lose... She was the embodiment of “Heaven’s Way,” one of the three major spiritual fragments of the Creation God.
Even if the other two spiritual fragments were combined into one, they couldn’t possibly have a chance of winning against her. So did Jing Yan throw the fight? Self-sacrifice? With Yawei’s understanding of her, this was also impossible. She would not disobey her orders.
The Lord of Heaven wouldn’t have imagined the efforts Shirley had put in, the millennia of planning, even calculating her own body and soul, at any cost, for Adele to fight Jing Yan today. Just as She also couldn’t imagine what Adele, with her weak human identity, could achieve. She didn’t rely on her ability as a soul fragment of the Creation God, she didn’t even awaken this incomparably powerful force, yet she ultimately won the battle against Jing Yan.
One wrong step, every step wrong. But who, in the Lord of Heaven’s position, with Her own power and Jing Yan, the highest-ranking soul fragment, wouldn’t think they had a 99.999...% chance of winning?
How could she possibly think or act with the mindset of possible defeat? The Lord of Heaven didn’t understand the principle of “even a lion uses its full strength to catch a rabbit.”
She only knew that lions were at the top of the food chain, and rabbits were just food, just as she was destined to be above the entire world, everything was an ant! But now, these ants... had already caused the Lord of Heaven heavy losses, making Her have to personally deal with the soon-to-be-born “New Creation God” and fight her for the “authority of the world.”
Another chilling, incomprehensible sound wave came. It was the Lord of Heaven speaking. The Philosopher King, although she could translate – “It’s over. Ants are still ants!” – didn’t have the energy to, because as the most crucial member in charge of defense in the iron triangle formed by the three demigods, the Philosopher King was destined to bear the brunt of the terrifying attacks from the Lord of Heaven.
And this time, she couldn’t endure it like before. Even with all her might, she couldn’t resist all the force and was severely injured. After a terrifying beam of light struck, the Philosopher King’s entire body cracked like a jade statue, but no scarlet blood flowed out.
Her life was unusual, a patchwork of the souls of all humans from the ancient era. “Sorry... did I scare you?”
Her life flame flickered like a candle in the wind, as if it would be extinguished at any moment. The Black Emperor and Jormungandr desperately defended the Philosopher King against the next round of attacks from the Lord of Heaven. No one could speak.
But even without an answer, the answer was already there. To this day, in order to hold back the Lord of Heaven and give Adele enough time to ascend to godhood, perhaps... only that one method remained, the only means to hold back the Lord of Heaven that they had desperately come up with before the Lord of Heaven descended.
Somewhere on the planet, the black-haired little loli, or rather, the evil god Ain, was greedily absorbing knowledge from books. She suddenly looked towards the distant starry sky, towards the place where the divine war had started.
The evil god Ain had no reason to fight for this world, for all the intelligent creatures in this world. But her Dao heart was shattered by the Creation God’s soul fragment in Adele’s body with one finger. She had now become a salted fish who was happy as long as she had books to read and wouldn’t cause trouble while all the strongest people on the planet were out and the defense was empty.
“You’ve reached this level again... But how long can you hold Him back?”
More than a thousand years ago, when that Vampire True Ancestor summoned the evil god Ain at the cost of sacrificing himself, the magic world ushered in a “dark day” in history. Countless strong people fell on that day. After all, they were facing the evil god Ain at her peak, having devoured an entire world. Although she looked weak now, it didn’t prevent her from being extremely powerful in the past.
In the end, the evil god Ain and Victoria were both trapped in the space-time turbulence caused by that great war. And because there was no concept of time in the space-time turbulence, Victoria came to this modern world from the distant past. Including the evil god Ain, she also survived in a way of fusing with Victoria.
And now, the three demigods beside the world barrier, including countless other powerful beings, the twelve Legendary Mages including Headmistress Winona, the last ancient dragon in the world, the elf Lislotte, Enforcement Bureau Director Yashi, and so on... The choice they made was to artificially create the most terrifying and huge space-time turbulence in history, and regardless of casualties, at all costs, trapped Yawei, the returning Lord of Heaven, in it!
No one knew how long this could last. And they knew better than anyone that this was a life-or-death move. But even so, every one of them still held the determination to abandon their lives and trap the Lord of Heaven, Yawei, to buy Adele... the last bit of time.
Without any hesitation, there was only tacit understanding. Countless powerful individuals used their strongest space magic, and the disturbed space-time even affected the world rules established by the Creation God at the beginning, so that this world could no longer restrict time and space, and this area would return to the origin of chaos! That was... the legendary “space-time turbulence”!
Long, long ago, the Creation God was born from the primordial chaos in such an environment! The innate deity! The God of old! And now, it was used to trap Yawei, the Lord of Heaven. If it was an innate god, they would naturally not get lost in it. But a usurper like the Lord of Heaven did not have that kind of divine sense and ability.
So the “space-time turbulence” was everyone’s last resort under the desperate disparity in strength, a way to kill 800 enemies and lose 1000 of their own! If they were lucky, Yawei might be trapped in it for a very, very long time. If they were unlucky, perhaps in a moment, She would be able to find the right path and leave that turbulent space-time.
Everyone was gambling, gambling that the space-time turbulence could trap the Lord of Heaven, and also gambling that Adele... could defeat Her eventual return!
The Lord of Heaven still underestimated the determination of these ants before Her. When She was swept into the “space-time turbulence,” the rules of the entire world were no longer affected by the Lord of Heaven. The sun became bright again, and sunlight returned to the earth.
Adele’s star was hidden among the stars. Everyone was rejoicing at the rebirth of the world and was finally willing to believe what was said on TV and radio, that this was just a rare astronomical phenomenon.
Little did they know that darkness had never left. It was only temporarily sealed. When it returned, what would greet this world would be eternal night. Or a new dawn?
At the same time, Adele had already entered her own spiritual world, a room in her heart. It wasn’t empty, but was dyed with countless colors. Countless memories were displayed in it like photos, like a museum of life. When the girl reached out and touched any image, the related memories would involuntarily emerge in her mind.
She walked, stopping and going, seemingly taking a long time, but on the scale of a lifetime, it might only be a moment. Finally, after recalling all the past, with a sweet smile, she pushed open the large door to another, more vast spiritual world.
Behind the door, the awakened, gigantic soul of the Creation God, situated among the vast sea of stars, looked at Adele with “Its” eyes as if at the beginning of the world, innocent and ignorant, looking at this... girl who looked exactly like Itself.
Adele took a deep breath. She didn’t speak, because everything was transparent before the Creation God’s soul. It understood the past, present, and future. It understood everything, but was still innocent.
This was the Creation God at the beginning of the world, nature, balance, and Heaven’s Way, merged into one, unaffected by external objects and unmoved by personal emotions, possessing the ineffable Tao.
When It had a thought and chanted, “Let there be light,” the world was born.
That primordial light once shone on every ancient human, but now, it had disappeared for too long, so long that humans had forgotten its brilliance and holiness. Adele bit her lip, and an inexplicable force surged from her heart, prompting her soul body to slowly extend her right hand towards the Creation God in the sea of stars.
The Creation God gazed at Adele. This scene seemed to freeze. An unknown amount of time passed. Finally, It responded to the girl! By slowly extending Its other hand, letting their fingertips touch.
Instantly, a faint light gradually appeared at the tips of their fingers, then became brighter and brighter, dazzling, rising and turning into countless scattered flowers!
Finally, in the endless light, the scattered flowers fell towards Adele ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) like meteors! They touched Adele’s body, burning away her clothes, enveloping her snow-white body, and putting on her a golden battle dress made of pure light, a crown of starlight like a king’s. A cape, gauntlets, leg armor, all forged, clanking into existence, even white-gold stockings woven from light, everything was there.
Only Adele’s jade-like feet were bare. She slowly floated up, gently waved her right hand, and a god-slaying spear appeared and was held in the girl’s hand. The girl gently shook the tip of the spear. There was a “click” sound.
The entire space behind Adele was split in half and turned into countless scattered lights. The girl’s eyes were firm, looking ahead, as if looking at the destined nemesis. At the same time, in the space-time turbulence, the Lord of Heaven, Yawei, looked back as if sensing something, but saw only a void. There was clearly nothing there. But Yawei, as if crazy, used all Her strength.
Boundless darkness surged towards that area like a tide. And the next moment, the void collapsed, and an eight-legged steed made of thunder, its whole body dark blue, treading on the flames of the underworld, leaped out. It roared, galloping above the dark sea, carrying the goddess of light on its back, the last queen of the human race, Adele, to the battlefield of destiny.
But Adele didn’t need the title of god. She was who she was, just as she never intended to waste any words on Yawei. Where the tip of the spear pointed was the enemy to be annihilated. Every thrust of the girl’s spear was a greeting called “death” to Yawei.
And how could Yawei be willing to let Adele have everything of the Creation God? Its soul fragments, Its power, Its world, all of this should belong to... “Me!!”
The divine war started by Adele and Yawei shattered time and space, expanding the space-time turbulence to the whole world! There, everything was disordered.
An ordinary person walking forward might step on their own heels. Another person wanted to cry, but the tears fell in the distant future, from one of countless selves. Countless cats were in a state between life and death, between lively jumps and cold stillness. A young boy turned around and saw his old self. Countless calls were answered. A girl called out to her father, another boy called her mother. They stepped forward, but their clothes never touched.
Countless futures played out at the same time, countless pasts intertwined and existed in parallel. Adele and Yawei fought in all these times and spaces. It could no longer be described as two supreme beings fighting to the edge of the universe, the Great Dao being obliterated, because they were both gods of this world, and the authority of the world reappeared because of their reunion.
It was at the center of the sunlight, a crystal-clear teardrop, or perhaps, solid light and darkness, yin and yang. The power of the authority of the world, the Lord of Heaven, and the new Creation God, Adele, intertwined and influenced each other. The resulting power could create everything, and could also destroy everything.
And precisely because of this, under the arbitrarily fabricated rules, this was an indescribable war far beyond the previous divine war. Occasionally, the Lord of Heaven gained the upper hand, and the whole world turned into a dark hell, filled with ashes and gaseous blood winds.
The planet was like a cancerous tumor.
Every breath created unknown monsters, either with multiple heads, or... These monsters had no will, no soul, no freedom, just empty shells. They replaced Yawei, who had fallen to the end, constantly invading other worlds, turning countless worlds created by the old gods on the other side of the distant sea of stars into forbidden zones for life. And Yawei sat on the throne made of human bones, holding the corpse of the Creation God whose soul light had been completely extinguished, humming the lullaby she had once hummed to “It” a long, long time ago.
The woman’s eyes were like dead embers, the smile on her lips seemed to flow, but it was more like a pattern carved with a knife. It was so chilling.
The next moment, this image shattered like glass, inch by inch. Adele stabbed Yawei’s heart with a spear! But this didn’t mean the end of the divine war. It was just Adele gaining a point.
The dark images disappeared completely, and the world became as bright as an eternal day.
Countless star fleets set sail, bringing the light of civilization to distant worlds, to tame those monsters in the dark, the fire of barbarism!
Every corner of the planet was filled with happiness.
Civilization was highly developed, material abundance was unprecedented, and everyone had the opportunity to love and be loved. Everyone could realize their value in life.
In a vast manor, inside a castle, on almost every floor, there was a small Cat-Bird with golden wings lazily sleeping. There were eight floors in the castle, and there were eight Cat-Birds, just in line with the fact that a cat could have a maximum of eight kittens at a time.
On the sofa on one floor, Adele was holding First Snow, who had turned into Cat-Bird form, in her arms and was lazily dozing, with no image of the new world’s ultimate being at all. And at this moment, a few sneaky little ones came to Adele’s side in groups, and then they all revealed the colorful paintbrushes in their hands!
The leader was a little girl with pink hair. The tallest one next to her, who was eager to try, was a girl with long blue hair. There was also a shrinking girl who had to get on this pirate ship because of her sister’s pressure. Her hair was silver-gray, identical to her mother, Sharon’s.
Suddenly, a blonde older sister ran out, startled and nervously reprimanded the little girls in a low voice. Although she was still a young girl, she had particularly full breasts!
“You guys, don’t cause trouble for Mom!”
“Mom is very tired from work!”
“Eh, but Mom doesn’t have a job at all. She’s always petting cats. Obviously, it’s the other aunties...”
“W-What do you know!”
“Gods can work in their dreams!”
“Ugh... Why do you still have to work even after becoming a god? Gods are so pitiful.” Anyway, a group of little girls were chattering, and finally gave up the idea of playing pranks on their god-mom’s face. Afterward, time continued to move forward leisurely.
..................
The golden spear pierced the heart of the Lord of Heaven, Yawei, penetrating from Her back, and endless light shone throughout the heavens.
Adele gritted her teeth, using the last of her strength.
—”Me, with such a future.”
—”How could I possibly lose to you!!!”
