Chapter 855: The Beginning of the Ancient Times, the First Sky (Updated First and Supplemented Later)
The light seemed to illuminate all the beautiful scenery in the world, but what it got in return was a merciless, tyrannical light that devoured everything like a nightmare.
The sound of praise resounded throughout heaven, and the gospel prayers poured out and mixed in with it.
The surroundings were all white. Kaguya Hourai looked at the miko who was trying her best to resist and bear the weight of the world. She couldn't help but lower her eyes and asked, "Can you still hold on?"
"Huh." The witch couldn't answer.
Deep and extreme malice emanated from her. At this moment, the root of darkness became the source of power for her dying struggle. A trace of the same nature as this light, which came from Su Lin's former dark side, retained the last bit of sanity.
"It looks like he can still hold on for a while." Kaguya looked at another guy who had little presence but was still noticed by 'Haotian God': "Akalin, what about you?"
"Why do you look like nothing happened?" Beads of sweat appeared on Saezuki Lin's forehead and his voice trembled.
The pain of feeling like the whole body is almost shattered is the feeling of the world being dismantled and even falling apart under the influence of external great forces.
"I'm used to this pain."
Kaguya also knew that this concern was unnecessary.
Since the three of them were drawn into the sea of light, the container of the Dragon God's power began to be eroded, and the dominance of the world itself shifted.
This world is over.
The origin of the world dissolved in the light of dawn, and the reason why the three of them still existed was probably because the food of 'Dragon God' was much larger than those universes, and it was a bit difficult to swallow it whole while competing with another behemoth world.
"Now, not to mention Gensokyo, even the whole world has disappeared." Kaguya smiled and said, "Forget it, just treat it as a nightmare."
Unexpectedly, facing this outcome, Kaguya Houraisan seemed somewhat calm.
Kaguya did not question the priestess why she wanted to send away the First Sky, nor did she show any negative emotions because of the current situation. She just silently waited for the sorrow of this world to drift away along the stream of light.
In this situation, everyone has done their best.
If the witch had not sent out the power of eternity, Su Lin would have taken back the First Sky.
If Su Lin hadn't deliberately let the First Sky loose, and hadn't started the resurrection match,
There is no point in thinking about these things. If you want to look into it in detail, the source is probably that she arrogantly thought that things would develop as expected.
It would be fine if I didn't carry the power of the Dragon God. As for my past self, I probably couldn't detect the difference between that 'Haotian God' and this world.
现在
Maybe he hopes that other people can leave this world quickly and not be implicated.
"If there is a possibility that everyone will disappear in the future when Gensokyo and the universe are destroyed."
"I will break this ending in front of you."
I didn't expect that man to say something a bit chuunibyou with hot-blooded shameful lines. I don't know if it was because he played games and watched too many anime in front of Su Lin in that eternity, or if it was because he was just like that.
Even for someone like me who is from Penglai, after being exposed to more ACG works, even if I originally just used them to kill time, I would be affected to some extent.
So that I still have a little expectation.
Reality is a crappy game. There aren’t often many happy endings, but players have to keep playing.
Until now, this expectation is still fermenting.
Kaguya Houraisan did not doubt that Su Lin had other tricks up his sleeve, but what was the price?
Forget it, don’t come.
Worry overwhelmed expectation. Given the man's personality, he might do something out of the ordinary, but this was the only thing he did.
Kaguya hopes that Su Lin can see the message she sent and leave this world honestly.
Think about it in a positive way, in this way, maybe I will just die and not fail in the strategy?
"What is that?" A trace of fear flashed in Saeki Lin's eyes, and he spoke in a dull voice.
The giant hand that stretched out from the sea of light had ripples spreading from its root, and the world that was pieced together from the glorious eras of the heavens began to split and alienate.
In just a moment, it turned into a painting full of countless fragmentation, with dawn, night, and noon in the same sky; deserts, oceans, mountains and rivers coexisting; the dead silent underworld, the mortal village, and the floating fairy island.
Soon, an illusory tide appeared, and countless rivers of time rippled and rolled, creating waves.
Time and space are in chaos, the years are divided, immortals, heroes, demons, angels, and numerous scaly and feathered creatures appear in the long river of time like erratic souls, constantly resurrecting and dying, with disordered breath, like trees without roots and water without source.
These souls all have an extremely powerful aura. They go with the flow and, together with the long river of time, condense into giants that stand tall and tall, spanning all realms, and that giant hand seems to be reaching out from them.
At this moment, the giant raised his head. The dragon-shaped universe that was already under his control, the countless branches of the long river of time in the past, future and present, as well as the extended infinite time and space, were all invaded by this external time flow.
Finally, the illusory tide of time converged towards Kaguya Hourai Mountain.
"It seems to be this setting." Kaguya's mouth twitched twice, revealing a slightly stiff and weird smile: "This fake Haotian God needs me more? But I don't buy into the meal replacement thing."
Saeki Rin felt that since the resurrection match, he could not understand many of Kaguya's conversations, but he still asked helplessly in the confusion brought by the pain:
"Do you know what's going on?"
"In fact, I am also one of these supreme ones." Kaguya said, as if trying to find joy in suffering:
"Don't worry, maybe according to the setting that people will be reborn after the world is eaten, we can meet again in the new world. Then I will steal batteries and devour other worlds to feed you."
If this is true, it seems not bad?
Not only do we not know who we were at that time, but we also don't know whether the other people in Gensokyo are still the real ones. The restoration has been done to this extent. If we think about it carefully, it's a bit terrifying.
Judging from the recent news in the group, Li Huowang’s mental problems have relapsed.
"It's just that this Majesty doesn't seem to be the First Sky of the Dragon Goddess, and he doesn't know how to be gentle and considerate to the Queen." Kaguya sighed slightly.
The resistance was completely ineffective, and the fatal wound on the witch's chest was covered inch by inch by the sticky liquid interwoven with black and white because she had no eternal power.
She is disappearing with the decay of this universe.
Then the next ones will be the two of them. No, I will probably go over to form the head, but I don’t know about Saeki Rin and the miko.
"He is not the First Sky either." The witch opened her tired eyes and corrected: "He is the same as me."
Because of the Dragon God's duties and obsession, she cannot give up on destroying Gensokyo and putting the world back on the right track, nor can she abandon the creatures of this universe. And due to the influence of the memories of successive Hakurei shrine maidens, she is no longer the creator she once was.
But there are more than one person who is lingering on the edge of cognition.
"You mean the Emperor's state is the same as yours?" Confusion appeared in Kaguya's eyes, and she seemed to be entangled by invisible threads, and became stunned:
"broken."
"This world is broken, I know." Saeki Rin looked desperate.
The absorption and devouring became more and more intense. The countless time and space created by the restart of the Great Barrier of Gensokyo were scattered all over the universe at this moment like fruits falling out of a broken supermarket shopping bag.
The cosmic barrier has failed.
“That’s not what I meant.” Before Kaguya could finish her words, countless rivers of time entangled her.
The power of eternity and moment was drawn out, and the dead souls in the long river of time were like seeing lights in the dark night, as if they were about to be squeezed out from another world in the picture reflected by the ocean of light.
Kaguya, who carries countless timelines, is restless, as if another consciousness is about to be born, and her past and memories are beginning to be modified.
It doesn't look like a good thing.
When consciousness became blurred, there was an invisible and inexplicable annihilation sweeping over, and everything fell into eternity. Then, the void, like solidified amber, automatically dissolved.
The slowly flowing river of time suddenly accelerated, but it did not continue to flow towards Kaguya, but towards a mass of darkness.
In this sacred world, with heavenly sounds in the ears and a world that is like heaven, it seems so disharmonious and weird.
But it appeared anyway, and it kept growing stronger, as if it had turned into a constantly rotating vortex, pulling in everything. Anything that fell into it, whether it was an abstract concept or anything in the material world, would be strangled.
The waves rolled, boom——
A ray of sword light is enough to cut through the eternal light, and the mythical story of dividing the sea is staged again here.
In the silence, a figure walked out slowly. He was wearing a royal robe, a crown on his head, and holding a sword in each hand. He walked in the light, but his footsteps were like stepping on puddles, stirring up ripples in the abyss that continued to spread.
The witch looked at the figure in disbelief.
"I will never go back on my word."
Even though there was such a long distance between light and darkness, void and abyss, Su Lin's words could still reach the other party.
"This world and your creation will be fine."
"Didn't you promise me something?!" Kaguya, who was still a little confused, realized something was wrong and sat up in shock from her dying illness: "What did you promise her?"
"I didn't change my number just now." Su Lin looked at Kaguya and nodded, "The same goes for what I promised you."
Immediately, he looked at Saeki Rin, the only one in relatively good condition.
"If you can return alive this time, would you consider going to my heaven?"
"Wait.. me?!"
Saezuki Rin widened his eyes and looked left and right at Kaguya and the miko, then shuddered violently and shook his head violently to refuse.
Where did this scumbag come from? !
Still so energetic, I should have learned to hit the punctuality like Brother Yan.
The plan to find four auspicious beasts to replace the Four Heavenly Kings as the security guards of the South Heaven Gate still needs to be considered in the long run.
Before, Su Lin always thought that Journey to the West Heaven was just a company he took over temporarily, even if the God Haotian used forbidden techniques to sacrifice all existence to him.
Normally, Su Lin would restrain himself, but now it was different. After Su Cangqiong's concept of the Abyss Emperor was closed, he had no worries about making any more trouble.
"But we have to deal with this guy first."
The void split open, and a sea of chaos containing all colors surged in. He walked out of the heavenly palace where twelve giant sky-devouring dragons coiled around the palace pillars. The pearl curtain hanging from the twelve-tasseled crown swayed with it, emitting the faint light of the beginning of chaos.
He stared at Su Lin without a trace of malice, but inside and outside this distorted universe, the countless souls in the Hunyuan Underworld, and the creatures in this void dimension whose origin of the world was devoured by it, the layers of prayers and praises, and words of repentance seemed to pull Su Lin until he overlapped with that figure.
Here it comes again, this feeling of fanatical sasaeng fans chasing idols without any sense of boundaries.
Su Lin raised his divine power, and the sword light suddenly appeared, splitting into countless pieces, and immediately shot towards every universe, every world, and every believer!
"The effect is a bit poor. This fake has a very high status." Su Lin's voices were cut off for a moment, and then they sounded again. He sighed and muttered to himself: "I have to do this after all."
"Who are you?" The witch frowned with confusion in her eyes.
"That's a good question." Su Lin slowly closed his eyes.
In the spiritual world, before the throne of the God of the Abyss.
Two sky-blue jade swords transformed from sword energy crossed each other, sparks flew everywhere, and with the spreading sharp sound, two identical figures overlapped and separated in the fight, until one of them exchanged injuries and stabbed the other's chest with the sword in his hand.
The sword blade broke out of the body, then broke into pieces and disappeared without a trace.
"I won."
“You should have won a long time ago.”
Su Cangqiong was not surprised by this result. He dispersed the sword in his hand, pushed Su Lin away as if nothing had happened, and walked to the throne of the Abyss.
"If his real body was in this world, I would still have to be concerned, but now he is just an imposter who has only a status and relies on the Lord of the Primordial Underworld, who is holding him back, and the universes he has eaten to accumulate strength."
"These powers are barely enough to fill the gaps between our teeth, and are completely incapable of matching the corresponding positions."
"And if we can truly restore our entirety within the dimension covered by the abyss, crushing it will be a piece of cake."
Su Cangqiong stared at the dark throne, with a hint of reluctance, greed, and nostalgia in his eyes:
"Light of the Sky. I left the abyss on my own initiative in order to become more complete. This time, I came back to restore my wholeness."
"Don't you consider the plan above all things?" Su Lin raised the Shenji in his hand.
"Nidhogg also has ulterior motives." Su Cangqiong sneered:
"The sword that can suppress the abyss dimension and extract energy from it was not offered earlier, but waited until now. I am afraid it will not be used against me."
"He has committed suicide to apologize." Su Lin assured the other party: "If you have any grievances, you can go and stab Lu Mingfei, but it's best to wait until he is married, otherwise the bloody wedding is not auspicious."
"The flaws of the Eternal Power are too great. It lacks the 'Crystallization of the Abyss Concept - God', so a sacrifice is necessary. If you win, you should remain silent as a victor."
Su Cangqiong stared at Su Lin and said seriously: "Help me stab that extremely sublimated idiot twice!"
To be honest, two cuts may not be enough.
Su Lin said no more, and Su Cangqiong did not hesitate at all. He walked straight to the throne of the God of the Abyss, turned around and sat down.
In an instant, the body broke apart, and the dark blue starry sky of the cosmic concept entity was exposed in the gap. The infinite brilliant light turned into flames, burning fiercely on its body, and the absorbed and assimilated 'Crystallization of the Abyss Concept·Emperor of Heaven' also clashed with this throne.
"Above all things. Does He think I will be grateful to Him?!"
"I hate the way He manipulates fate and arranges everything behind the scenes the most!"
"He stands above all things with omniscience and omniscience, allowing me to create the world by splitting it up. The Marvel Universe was not the world I wanted to create. Why would He use my split body as a theater?!"
The broken face raised its eyes and stared at Su Lin:
“I hate everything He arranged and created, and I hate those thieves who get something for nothing.”
"Even if my origin has become you, even if these emotions and memories belong to the past First Sky, not the current me who is nothing, even if I am now doing these contradictory things that the First Sky would never do."
"I will definitely not do what He wants!"
At the end, He revealed all the long-storing resentment almost word by word, and directed the deepest hostility at Su Lin, as if He saw above all things.
"But." Su Lin was silent for a moment, then said, "I am the First Sky."
"What?" Su Cangqiong's body seemed to be enduring the torture and the scorching sun, but when he heard Su Lin's words, he was suddenly stunned.
"My household registration and presidential file in Marvel is the First Sky, and the Light of the Sky is also a part of me." Su Lin shrugged and asked, "What's the difference?"
A light that was even brighter and more dazzling than the light from heaven shone from Su Lin's body. This light tore through the clouds, penetrated the abyss, and fell on Su Cangqiong who was sitting on the throne.
The sublimated light illuminated his tense and somewhat ferocious face, but at this moment he smiled: "No difference!"
From the time when Su Lin ascended the throne as the First Sky and the Light of the Sky, and the First Sky on the throne transformed the origin into Su Lin, there was no difference.
Good calculation, above all things!
But the strange thing was that for the first time, Su Cangqiong did not feel any resentment or hatred. He began to sneer, and then laughed out loud as if he was mocking himself.
Amid the prayers of countless believers praising 'Haotian God' from the imposters, amid the rejection of forcibly ascending to the throne of the God of the Abyss as the Emperor of Heaven, and amid the pain of being sublimated to the extreme while ignoring the cause and effect of time to restore his integrity as the former God of the Abyss.
"What I think is what you think, and what you do is what I do!"
He laughed wantonly, then suddenly looked up at the 'Haotian God' in the void, then turned to stare at himself in Su Lin's eyes, his broken face blurred until it overlapped:
"You are me, and I am you!"
"We are the God who is and who was and who is to come, and we are also the God who was in the beginning."
"The First Sky." Su Lin opened his eyes from the throne, with a ferocious smile lingering on the corners of his mouth.
The extremely brilliant light that shone brightly came out from Su Lin, but there was a dark blue incarnation of the concept of the universe, which was constanted by the incomplete eternal power and transformed into conceptual energy, blocking the outside of the position of the God of the Abyss as the price of temporarily returning to completeness.
The winners stay, the losers pay the price, but in a sense, there is no winner or loser in the first place

"What's the point of just COS?" Su Lin looked at the impostor, and in an instant, the abyss erupted.
It was more violent than any previous time, rolling with the debris of countless universes, covering this void dimension, the corrupted surface of the universe that had experienced reincarnation, and using it as an anchor point to spread its influence.
