Gods Vanish on a Cloudy Day

Chapter 6 Use the Extinction Severing Star Blade!

Chapter 692 Use the Extinction Star Severing Blade!

Having experienced many world crossings and battles, Su Zhou now felt that his Celestial Soul's karma was nearing the complete state he had envisioned.

Not perfect, nor without room for improvement, but akin to a juvenile transforming into a complete form. Although there would be ultimate forms and various exceptional evolutionary stages in the future, the complete form was considered fulfilled, capable of handling all sorts of combat situations.

Su Zhou's power originated from his soul. The evil souls devoured by the initial Evil Demon Lord provided his first fortune, and the subsequent power of faith, various insights, and self-innovations were all fundamentally applied to his soul.

The Candle Sun (Zhuzhou) was first and foremost a concept, which then altered the soul and cultivation.

And the changes to the soul, in turn, fed back to the body, allowing the Candle Sun body to transform endlessly, constantly sublimating and progressing.

After reaching the realm of the Celestial Immortal (Tianxian), Su Zhou's divine abilities became nearly complete. His power was now immortal and capable of dealing with all sorts of enemies. Coupled with the endurance granted by his powerful body, the youth was practically a juggernaut in combat. Even enemies with superior techniques found it difficult to use skillful maneuvers against a rumbling, speeding mud truck and would instead be crushed to death.

But the problem was that Su Zhou's soul still relied on the strength of his body. The strength of his body compensated for many of Su Zhou's shortcomings, and the various divine abilities brought about by his undying blood allowed him to experience fighting to the extreme and the feeling of recovering after suffering heavy injuries, but because he relied too much on his body in this regard, Su Zhou's soul lacked transformation.

However, now, this problem had been solved.

By going to the Aeon World with a pure soul, fighting the Sun Emperor with his soul as the primary force, and experiencing death and rebirth, Su Zhou's soul had now experienced everything it should have. He had fought against every kind of powerful enemy.

Moreover, he had gained the special soul module of the 'Mind Light Body.'

Yes, could the Candle Sun not change in body only?

The soul could naturally do as it pleased!

The Seven-Headed Great Dragon Mind Light Body returned with Su Zhou. This demonic dragon, originating from the endless curses of the Aeon World, was supposed to leave when the Aeon World was reborn, but now it had become part of Su Zhou's power, that is, the foundation of Su Zhou's 'Dao of the Soul.'

This special soul structure, capable of bearing many times more spiritual energy than Su Zhou's soul itself, could both fight physically and serve as a barrier to ward off disasters. It was the last piece to complete Su Zhou's Celestial Soul's karma.

Now, Su Zhou felt that as long as he returned to his body, he would be only one step away from the peak of the Celestial Immortal. He only needed to integrate his newly organized 'Mind Clarification' method into his body and turn it into instinct.

Then, he would probably be able to become a Celestial Venerable (Tianzun), a super life form that transcended mortal life, carrying his path with both soul and body.

"Achieving Celestial Immortality does not necessarily mean becoming a Celestial Venerable."

"But becoming a Celestial Venerable is equivalent to obtaining the keys to the Great Celestial Venerable and the Celestial Emperor."

"In the Transcendent Realm, after the Innate, the so-called leading Human Immortal realm is to obtain one's own divine abilities, take the first step on one's own unique path, and be able to establish one's own sect inheritance."

"And when one reaches the Overlord Earth Immortal, the perfection of their divine abilities and the completeness of their path even allows them to gain preliminary immortality, establish a religion to spread widely in the world, and be reborn from it—but the time of this rebirth depends on luck, mainly on the number of inheritors."

In the void, Su Zhou pondered, he muttered to himself: "But when one reaches the Celestial Immortal realm, the progress of rebirth will be greatly accelerated, because the Celestial Immortal has begun to undergo preliminary complete transformation, transforming into a 'being of eternal life' who is nearly immortal and indestructible."

This eternal life is not the eternal life of lifespan, merely the preservation of lifespan. Some special inheritances can achieve this at the leader level.

The eternal life of an eternal being comes from all aspects.

An eternal soul, an eternal body, an eternal mind, eternal beliefs and will, and an eternal inheritance.

Not to be obliterated by experts of the same rank, even a drop of blood from the body can create a race, and a fragment of the soul can derive a complete being.

And the Celestial Venerable goes a step further.

The Celestial Venerable can directly inscribe their inheritance and path on specific spiritual energy frequencies, spreading it for nearly eternal time. Anyone who accepts spiritual energy of the corresponding frequency has a chance to comprehend the cultivation method of this Celestial Venerable.

Then, from this cultivation method, they can reproduce everything of this immortal god.

In other words, unless a huge cosmic structural upheaval occurs, even if the Celestial Venerable's lineage is obliterated, someone will always comprehend His cultivation method in the distant future.

Then, they can return.

In some smaller worlds with very powerful inheritances, the immortal's cultivation method may even be inscribed in the entire world. At that time, the Celestial Venerable can even be called the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao. As long as one learns from heaven and earth, it is equivalent to learning the cultivation method of this Celestial Venerable.

This is also why Celestial Immortals are still immortals, while Celestial Venerables are 'Venerables'.

In the Aeon World, Su Zhou could try to forcibly inscribe his inheritance imprint with the spiritual energy density more than dozens of times greater than more than half of the Aeon World—he could already do this.

And in a normal spiritual energy environment, if he can still do this, then he can be said to have truly achieved the position of Celestial Venerable.

At this time, Su Zhou closed his eyes under the protection of the Heavenly God Scale shield. Qing-purple spiritual light began to emerge around him, like a sky full of stars. Now, the youth was trying to remotely communicate with the Tree of Wisdom and the Extinction Blade and its blade spirit in his body, giving them new knowledge and inheritance.

At the same time.

Inside the Judgment Death Star, Jiu Ming, who had just finished communicating with the Central Committee of the Thirty-Six Saints of the Righteous Nation, walked out of the communication room with a worried look.

Inside the current Judgment Death Star, the atmosphere among the original fleet members was very relaxed. Unlike Shao Shuangyue, who was just taking the opportunity to complain and act spoiled, the hearts of those who had contacted their old homes were much more settled.

When Tang Yuan was in control, the Judgment Death Star could solve all enemies, and now that a professional pilot had arrived, the strength of the Judgment Death Star had skyrocketed. What did they have to fear?

Some crew members from the Europa Union even looked at the Earth's time, estimating that they could probably make it back in time for Christmas.

And the crew members of the Righteous Nation were even less worried—they could still celebrate the Spring Festival no matter how late it was.

In addition, with the reinforcements arriving soon, they would not fear even if several more powerful enemies came.

Jiu Ming naturally wouldn't fear either. What worried him was something else.

As one of the two Pioneer Affiliates dispatched, just like Shao Shuangyue who was responsible for piloting the Death Star, Jiu Ming naturally had his own mission.

That was to give the 'Setting Sun Bow' temporary automatic combat capabilities.

In order to support the fleet far away on the other side of the Milky Way, the Earth side had indeed prepared many backhands, but the simplest and most direct was to activate the Setting Sun Bow that Su Zhou had taken to annihilate the Star Eaters.

After all, the Crimson Firmament Sword was best used around Earth's humans, the Mountain Driving Whip needed to be close to celestial bodies, and fighting in space was a bit troublesome, and it wasn't that they were unwilling to use the other artifacts of the Immortal God system, but their power wasn't as great as the Setting Sun Bow.

In that case, it would be better to gather the faith of the people in the Setting Sun Bow and temporarily urge this divine weapon to fire a normal shot in the absence of Su Zhou's soul.

Of course, that was just one shot... Without a Celestial Immortal controlling it, no matter how long the power of faith was gathered, it would only be a disposable item. If used a second time, just wait for the entire Death Star to turn into a black hole and be launched out.

It could also be a good way to commit suicide and die together.jpg

"But, is it really reliable to give this weapon to Sister Shuangyue?"

Frowning, Jiu Ming was worried about this matter.

Of course, the Dragon King of the South Sea didn't look down on Shao Shuangyue. As a teammate in the same squad, he was very clear that although Shao Shuangyue occasionally showed a somewhat frivolous appearance, she was very reliable when performing tasks and was a very excellent explorer.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have received the Pioneer Trial and barely passed the passing line with a low score, obtaining the title of Half-Step Pioneer.

But, the Setting Sun Bow was different—if it went berserk, it could accidentally launch the entire Death Star, and there would really be no way to stop it.

While thinking about this, Jiu Ming suddenly heard a shrill alarm sound from inside the Death Star.

【Warning! Abnormal space-time fluctuations detected!】

【Warning! Extreme Twilight Affiliate aura detected!】

【Extremely dangerous!】

However, after hearing this, neither Jiu Ming nor the other crew members were nervous, at most they were a little dissatisfied.

"What's going on, are we going to be ambushed four times in a row today?"

Complaining like this, Jiu Ming turned and walked towards his post. He shook his head and said: "These Twilight Affiliates are really not afraid of hardship, not afraid of fatigue, and even less afraid of death..."

But halfway through his words, an even more shrill alarm sounded.

【Estimated threat: Peak Alpha-class Psionic, approaching Omega Psionic】

【Predicted attacker: One of the Four Annihilation Envoys of the Void Cult!】

Jiu Ming, who was walking, froze in place.

He turned his head and looked at the Death Star's porthole beside him.

In the dark vacuum of space outside, dense ripples began to appear on the originally calm space, and a huge concentric circle fluctuation was rapidly rotating. The vortex was spinning rapidly, and finally a deep well leading to the other side of the universe was recessed in the center, a 'hole' that could transcend space and time and connect any two points in the universe!

An inconceivable power forcibly opened a wormhole, and at the other end of this wormhole, the faint light of a white dwarf star flickered quietly.

Then, it bloomed with a glimmer.

————Buzz!!!

"All hands on deck!"

A huge warning sound rang throughout the entire Death Star. It was Shao Shuangyue's voice. The usually casual and somewhat out-of-it girl was now as solemn as a different person. She said in a deep voice, warning everyone: "The attacker is one of the Four Annihilation Envoys of the Void Cult, 【the End God·Ten Faces】! The opponent is a super expert who had the strength of a Great Celestial Venerable in his heyday. Even if his strength is incomplete after his revival after the spiritual energy is cut off, he is still much stronger than an ordinary Immortal Celestial Immortal!"

"Everyone prepare to fight, the Void Cult is about to launch a full-scale attack!"

As a series of blue light patterns lit up on the gray-black surface of the Judgment Death Star, all the reserve crew members came to their respective combat positions.

Although the Death Star could indeed fight automatically, with the assistance of other experienced crew members, it could exert far more powerful power than fighting alone.

But just as the Death Star was preparing, small spots began to emerge around the wormhole, smaller than the giant wormhole in the center.

Numerous wormholes resonated with each other, and the violent spiritual energy fluctuations were like tsunami waves, centered on the wormholes, turning into ring-shaped shock waves, blowing away the thin particle clouds on the edge of the Milky Way, making the universe clear.

Then, under the horrified gaze of the crew members, dense swarms of monster enemies climbed out of these small wormholes!

Jiu Ming was responsible for controlling the four secondary cannons of the Judgment Death Star. He solemnly manipulated the locking panel, and then aimed at the direction of the wormhole, preparing to give the opponent a head-on blow as soon as possible.

But precisely because of this, he clearly saw this scene in the first place.

—Countless amorphous entities that resembled wraiths were now wailing as they climbed from the other side of time and space.

To be honest, this scene was very similar to squeezing toothpaste, but after the toothpaste was squeezed out, those amorphous spiritual corpses condensed into strange rings, suspended in the universe, constantly rotating.

Most of these rings were about three kilometers in diameter, the large ones could be seven kilometers in diameter, and the small ones were only less than a hundred meters, but no matter which kind of ring, they were releasing a strange soul murmur, seemingly constantly praising, praying, or even begging.

But what was terrifying was that this prayer, which sounded very clear, would turn into a tangled mess once you tried to understand it, and you couldn't figure out what it meant no matter how hard you tried.

And the most magnificent prayer and praise naturally came from the central wormhole, from the distant other side of time and space.

【——————】

Invisible howling fluctuations spread layer by layer, causing the surrounding universe to vibrate.

"Fire!"

Shao Shuangyue ordered without hesitation—only an idiot would wait for the enemy to fully deploy their formation and try to analyze their essence.

Moreover, who said you can't understand while fighting? Compared to observing with the eyes, bombing with cannons and shooting with lasers at the same time, while observing and comparing, that's called true understanding!

Chatting can only get mission items, but fighting can get dropped equipment. This is the truth that adventurers spread in the Pioneer Space!

On the Judgment Death Star, countless gunports emerged from under the deck, and even the Nine Headed Aether Dragons poked their heads out, accumulating power, causing the orange-red light of their breath to brew in their throats.

And the next moment, thousands of rays of light shone together, converging into a rain of light that poured towards the spiritual energy rings around the distant wormhole—although the distance between the two sides was such that even light would take five seconds to travel, these attacks were originally aimed at the wormhole itself, not those ordinary derivative cannon fodder.

Suddenly, countless spiritual energy rings that had emerged from the wormhole took the initiative to act as targets, using their bodies as shields, blocking in front of the wormhole.

But the result was quite surprising.

The Judgment Death Star's heavy particle ray stream was enough to destroy an entire large asteroid, with a temperature exceeding seven million degrees. Even fine gold would melt, and all mundane matter would turn into nothingness—and the Aether Dragons' jets were theoretically capable of destroying all armor, creating true damage.

But this time, except for the Aether Dragons' breath that penetrated those spiritual energy rings, causing them to slowly collapse, all other attacks that hit the spiritual energy rings only caused these rings to self-destruct, turning into mist.

In a few seconds, these mists re-condensed, turning into smaller, dimmer, but still existing spiritual energy rings.

"Actually?!"

It was hard to imagine that any structure could exist under such a fire impact. Shao Shuangyue, who was controlling the Death Star, narrowed her eyes. She could sense that it was a very stable spiritual structure that could convert most of the destructive force of attacks into pure energy to cancel each other out.

For example: a bullet hitting the head can easily kill a human, but the kinetic energy contained in a bullet is about the same as the kinetic energy of an average human running a hundred meters.

If they can cancel each other out, then this person will not die, at most a little tired.

Translated into game terms, it's probably that if the health value is not reduced to zero, then the person will not die.

Fearless rings gathered together, and together with other subsequent spiritual rings that emerged from the wormhole, they blocked the Judgment Death Star's fire bombing. Even if one ring after another turned into dust in the universe, becoming part of a surging energy torrent.

In a short period of time, more than eight thousand spiritual energy rings were crushed, burned to ashes, and dissipated into the universe.

But it was meaningless.

Because the vast existence on the other side of the central wormhole, which was about to cross the border, was faster than anyone imagined.

Boom.

A low roar caused the spirit world to shake. The rotating vortex wormhole began to gradually stagnate, and then, accompanied by an incomparably silent will, without any vitality or desire, seemingly only pure ending, a hand emitting a faint gray light passed through the wormhole, carrying a chill that made all life feel cold in their hearts.

Then, there was a second hand, a third hand, a fourth...

Like bizarre arms blooming like flowers, they propped open the wormhole. Under the Judgment Death Star's uninterrupted cannon fire, a strange god with ten faces, composed of countless visages and limbs, slowly stepped from the other side of time.

Behind Him shone the light of a white dwarf star, and the nebula matter produced by the supernova explosion filled the entire star field. The area where the Ten-Faced God originally resided should have been a galaxy that had experienced a supernova explosion, but the ground beneath His feet was largely intact.

Under His power, even a supernova explosion could not destroy a planet.

Seeing the full picture of this strange god, all the people in the Death Star battleship gasped.

Because He was too big.

He was four thousand kilometers tall, and the countless arms that stretched out were the same length.

This was a spiritual god almost the size of the moon!

Inside the Judgment Death Star, there was originally a soul defense measure built into the Candle Sun's body, the 'Celestial Soul Armament'.

This was a powerful soul shield obtained by Su Zhou simulating the 'Rejection Field' from the Undying Soul. Even the mental interference of a Celestial Venerable could be completely blocked, and the number of shield layers could be increased by inputting a large amount of magic power.

Although it consumed a lot of energy, it was a considerable burden for the Judgment Death Star, comparable to a main gun firing at full power, but both Tang Yuan and Shao Shuangyue chose to keep it on all the time to avoid being ambushed by the enemy with soul-related moves.

However, at this moment.

'Celestial Soul Armament' was sounding continuous crisis alarms in Shao Shuangyue's mind!

【Extreme danger warning! An unknown super-strong mental erosion field spreading detected, corresponding vaccine patches are being generated!】

【Extreme danger warning! Celestial Soul Armament core processor has been overclocked!】

【Extreme danger warning! Vaccine patch generation failed, more information sources are needed!】

Faced with the mental erosion that came with the Ten-Faced Spiritual God, the Celestial Soul Armament could still barely maintain, but it was operating at its limit.

At this moment, in order to ensure that the many crew members inside the Death Star were not affected, the entire Death Star's weapon system reduced part of its output, causing the spiritual energy wave that originally reacted in the universe to slowly subside a little.

In the blue-haired True Dragon youth's pupils, there was a black-red, single, visual effect that was very obvious, very terrifying, and very dangerous giant warning symbol, hanging above Su Zhou's head, and slowly rotating and changing.

Staring into the distance, the flow of information in her eyes flowed like a waterfall, Shao Shuangyue swallowed and looked in awe.

Although she knew that for spiritual gods, this huge, overly large body was equivalent to the Dharma Body of Heaven and Earth, and did not represent the other party's true strength, but since there was such a large Dharma Body, it was enough to prove that the other party's strength was exaggerated.

As for mental erosion, it was not surprising. After all, the basic characteristics of this kind of spiritual god were various special abilities that affected the soul and will, just like her Zhuzhou's Celestial Soul karma, which even came with karma fire. If the wicked saw him, if they were evil enough, they would be ignited by karma fire themselves, which was more terrifying than mental erosion.

She swallowed, mainly because she saw the enemy information in the Pioneer Panel.

【Void Annihilation Envoy·End Ten Faces】

【Immortal-Revival Creator】

A huge metal skull hung on the side of this title, shining with a dark light.

【Ultra-dangerous target, specific strength is the peak of the Immortal, falling from the former Creator realm. The current specific state is unknown, the specific strength cannot be detected, and the degree of threat is extremely high.】

【Action suggestion: Keep your distance】

【Optional team mission: Defeat the End·Ten-Faced God】

【The whole team obtains an sss-level opening permission, points exploration points. The person who makes the decisive blow gets the full reward, and other assisters get rewards according to their output.】

【Optional exploration mission: Find out the source of the great existence aura behind the End·Ten-Faced God】

【Current progress 0%, reward points 0】

Such a generous reward, such a high difficulty, this was what made Shao Shuangyue both swallow and be in awe.

【This, is this one of the Four Annihilation Envoys of the Void Cult?】

At this moment, inside the Death Star, Cenosystia Ambassador, Tain the Prophet couldn't help but open his eyes: 【Indeed, it lives up to its reputation!】

The original body of the End·Ten-Faced God was a fairly developed psionic civilization. They were originally a carbon-based symmetrical vertebrate race similar to humans, but after obtaining psionic evolution, they gradually degenerated their hands and feet, and instead used psionics to move themselves and carry out daily life.

Such races were quite rare, and it was even more important to look at the overall talent of the race to study psionics throughout the entire race. They couldn't imitate it even if they wanted to, and this race was proud of its achievements.

Without a doubt, it was definitely not a bad thing. If everything remained the same, a race that was superhuman and enlightened earlier than the Earth Human Race, with all psionics, and also higher psionics, might appear in the universe.

The problem was that they encountered the extinction of psionics.

At first, it was just a slight psionic ebb.

But even so, this psionic civilization was greatly hurt. This civilization, which was completely built on sophisticated psionic technology, almost collapsed directly. Their material transportation channels completely stopped, high-precision research facilities self-destructed, and not to mention many weaker civilization individuals even had difficulty moving.

One psionic ebb killed hundreds of millions of people.

And when the psionics returned, this civilization, which had finally recovered a certain amount of vitality, learned from the pain and began to seek various ways to try to solve this problem.

Asking the great existence in the void, signing a contract; searching for civilizations outside the world, trying to imitate; learning mechanical technology to replace psionics...

Even if they were proud of their psionic civilization, for the survival of the civilization, this civilization was still willing to put down its pride and embrace the machinery and flesh that they originally had no feeling for to maintain the stability of the civilization.

However, no matter what method was used, this civilization could not avoid the disaster they were destined to encounter.

Their civilization... first gave birth to the soul, and then nurtured the body.

The body was just a container for the soul, a fleshy machine that assisted the soul in thinking, a carbon-based computer—without the soul, the body of this race would not have self-awareness, just like the early non-smart computers of Earth civilization, with only the most basic life support system.

In other words, a vegetative state.

And the psionic ebb... would lead to the birth of 'soulless people'.

This was despair.

Species that took the soul as the root were born with psionic talent. This was originally a gift from heaven, a luck that countless civilizations envied but could not come by—but now, this gift had become a life-threatening shackle.

The universe where psionics were cut off denied the meaning of this race's existence.

How could they avoid this future?

This race struggled, despaired, but could not get an answer.

But in the end, under the guidance of the Void Cult, or through their own search, this race listened to the voice of an ancient and distant existence in the void.

【Unification】

He murmured: 【Union】

【One person can't do it, two people can do it, and if two people can't do it, the combined efforts of many people will do. The power of all people is condensed into one mind, even the disaster of cosmic change, even if there is only one person left in the end, that is you. You can transcend any suffering and reach the final eternity】

【But remember, you must work together, you must gather your minds... otherwise, even eternity...】

The teachings of the great existence were remembered by them.

After that, no one knew what happened.

Since then, this civilization had fallen silent from the big stage of the Milky Way.

What appeared again was the demon representing the end, a god formed by the fusion of countless souls, the 'Ten-Faced God'.

How could Unification be so simple?

Some wanted to fight, some wanted to escape, some wanted to survive, and some wanted to enjoy.

Some wanted to give up, some wanted to persevere, some wanted joy, and some wanted sadness.

Some wanted hope.

Some would rather fall into the void.

The Ten-Faced God, composed of hundreds of millions of people, was no longer the original civilization. He was an existence born from the corpses after the destruction of the civilization. He was empty and void from birth. He had neither a mission nor a purpose. There were only countless chaotic voices, countless fanatical prayers, and countless desperate murmurs.

In the end, the End Ten Faces were accepted by the Void Cult and became His envoy to annihilate various civilizations.

One of the Annihilation Envoys.

Tain the Prophet expressed sympathy for the choice of the End Ten Faces and could understand the other party's pain—the Cenosystians once relied on the Star of the Galaxy to travel to other worlds, and many of the basic constants of the universe were different from the sealed universe. No matter what biological technology or scientific technology was, it was a piece of waste paper.

And some universes whose basic constants were also disordered when the psionics were cut off in other universes, and the entire universe was destroyed.

This feeling that all the efforts and efforts became useless was indeed void.

What's more, the End Ten Faces were a by-product of this void, which was a void within a void.

The Ten-Faced God squinted His ten pairs of eyes, He stared at the gray-black Death Star, and then raised His chaotic 'hand'.

Suddenly, the entire Death Star felt an invisible force coming across time and space, as if it was being clenched by a hand, deviating from its original orbit and flying towards the End Ten Faces!

The Aether Dragons screamed and shrank back into their shells. Although they were also protected by the Celestial Soul Armament, the protection was weaker. Now they felt dizzy and wanted to vomit, so they might as well go back to the nest under the deck and lie down.

However, these chubby dragons could not wait for the moment to rest.

Because in the face of the End Ten Faces' attack, the Death Star also launched a merciless counterattack!

"Liberation, combat form!"

In the cockpit, the girl took three bottles of alchemical potions of different colors, which were to stabilize the spirit, strengthen the soul, and strengthen the body.

Shao Shuangyue took a deep breath, and then selected the two inheritance imprints in front of her and shouted angrily: "Five Extremes Divine Thunder! All Living Beings Meet Tribulation!"
