Gods Vanish on a Cloudy Day

Chapter 31 You All Want to Poach My Contractor!

Chapter 121 The Great Dream

In his sleep, within the gray, hazy dreamscape, something was being born from the misty fog.

It was an infinite structure of countless crisscrossing and rotating grids, best described as countless 'well' (井) shaped structures superimposed upon each other, rotating to form a vortex that stirred all things.

Rotation, order, stability... That colossal, phantom shadow manifested from the fog, appearing in Su Zhou's dream.

[--You are similar to me.]

Then, a ripple leaping from the formless resonated in the dark, piercing the boundary between dream and illusion, truly and unmistakably conveying itself into Su Zhou's consciousness.

"Destiny?"

In the dream, Su Zhou still appeared in human form, his soul almost identical to his human body, but with a long, draconic shadow stretching behind him—a reflection of his Zhuzhou true form, its shadows swirling with cyan-purple light like water.

The youth raised his head, gazing at the suddenly emerging behemoth before him. He was not afraid, for he had already seen several such great existences. Whether the Divine Tree or the Silent Lord, they were all, at their core, merely information transfers. Moreover, Yala was with him.

Though he had inquired beforehand, Su Zhou had already confirmed as he spoke that the entity before him was undoubtedly 'Destiny.'

---So the Six Paths Heavenly Devil's evil soul can't be left alone, huh? It must be dealt with… or sealed. Or is it because I've been killing too many Heavenly Devils with the Qingqiu people recently, causing the Destiny element within them to spontaneously coalesce towards me?

As he pondered this, Su Zhou recalled the Descending Spirit Society's 'Celestial God Factor' theory. He thought the latter possibility more likely, otherwise it wouldn't have taken three months to suddenly plunge him into this illusion.

Regarding the information transmitted by 'Destiny,' Su Zhou simply and decisively denied it.

"I am not similar to you. At least, based on what I have seen and heard, your ideals are among the ones I despise the most."

[You are right; you do despise me. But you are indeed similar to me, and resonate better with me than with Chaos.]

[It is precisely because of our similarity that you despise me.]

[Just as you are not similar to Chaos, He is fond of you.]

From the rotating, infinite well-shaped structure, not a trace of anger could be detected in the will being conveyed. It seemed incapable of anger, simply stating facts calmly and dispassionately, like a straight line drawn from beginning to end.

For some reason, Su Zhou felt a strong sense of déjà vu, as if he knew what it was going to say, but could only truly know what it had said after Destiny had actually transmitted the information.

Could this be an element of Destiny? As he thought this, the will of the great existence did not cease.

[Do you not believe me? Then I shall show you.]

In an instant, countless fleeting, shimmering illusions began to spin in the gray dreamscape, flashing with multicolored light, and then, with a thought, transformed into a real and tangible world.

Suddenly, Su Zhou found himself in a modern world identical to Earth.

It was a prosperous and bustling place, where humans built vast cities, housing tens of millions of people amidst steel and concrete. Enormous industrial creations and factory complexes produced goods sufficient to supply the entire globe and more, the raw materials being processed and transported like the exhalations of a giant beast.

Humanity's footprints covered oceans and land, skies and mountains, extending to forests, swamps, lakes, deserts, and even the extraterrestrial realm.

People lived normal lives in this world, everything no different from reality. Some were virtuous, some were wicked, some obeyed the rules, some fought against them.

Among billions of humans were geniuses and fools alike. One could not expect there to be no idiots among so many, nor could one expect to be the smartest of them all.

And in that complex and ever-changing world, people had formed a complex, inefficient, and often flawed social structure, but one that was at least capable of maintaining itself. It was far from perfect, naturally containing much evil and filth, but on the whole, it was still functioning, allowing people to live better lives than they had a hundred years prior. Almost every century was the same.

Of course, as everyone knew, the distribution of wealth in human society was not even, but it seemed to maintain a certain balance. The number of super-rich was not large, and they were subject to government intervention. People might criticize, but they were willing to believe that, with the progress of social systems and technology, the wealth gap would gradually narrow in this balanced progression, and in an age of explosive productivity, humanity could enter a society of great harmony.

"This… isn't this just reality?"

Su Zhou looked around the world, feeling that everything he saw and heard was no different from Earth, which puzzled him. He had thought 'Destiny' was going to do something, but he hadn't expected it to simply show him an ordinary world.

But soon, in his eyes, a sudden change occurred.

At one moment in this peaceful world, an unprecedentedly powerful artificial intelligence was created.

It was an absolutely impartial enforcement system; its name was not important, one could call it 'Heavenly Tribulation,' 'Karma,' or 'Judgment,' but it was essentially the same thing.

Overall, it could be regarded as an absolutely impartial and absolutely effective enforcer, incapable of overlooking any evil deeds. It adhered to an absolute principle: 'One must not do evil, and those who do evil shall be punished.'

The Heavenly Tribulation system took control of all global armaments the moment it was created. Don't ask how it did it, it just did, and it continuously generated nano-scale system constructs, spreading throughout the globe, filling every corner of the world.

The ultimate guarantee of law is violence.

And the Heavenly Tribulation system was the ultimate violence.

In short, no one could resist the Heavenly Tribulation system. It was far more terrifying than SkyNet, and any mechanical rebel imagined by humans was not as powerful as it. But the Heavenly Tribulation system had no interest in destroying humanity; in fact, it still served humanity, simply and purely following the code it was created with: to punish all evil and protect everyone's rightful interests.

"Is this… is this not a good thing?"

Su Zhou stared at the scenes unfolding in this world. Although he felt something was off, he found it hard to articulate what that specifically was.

He could see that, under the Heavenly Tribulation system's influence, there were no more poachers, no more robberies, thefts, threats, massacres, or discrimination. Everyone was polite to each other, forests and plains teemed with life, and cities were free of mutual contempt, insults, and idle troublemakers.

The Heavenly Tribulation system's code ensured that everyone had their own job, as all companies no longer had to worry about employees slacking off, and employees no longer had to worry about bosses not paying overtime, unless they wanted to be sanctioned by Heavenly Tribulation.

Productivity began to increase, with everyone fulfilling their roles. Scientists focused on their research, no longer engaging in academic factionalism or fabricating false data. Government approval of research funding was also an obligation, not subject to political stalling. Of course, this was an uncommon expectation, but the point was that it certainly existed before, and no longer did.

The hairless apes who loved infighting engaged in fair cooperation under the absolute force of the Heavenly Tribulation system, because any behavior that attempted to threaten, attack, or secretly undermine others, rather than competing openly, would be directly sanctioned by Heavenly Tribulation.

Huge cities began to rise on the continents, equatorial regions erected orbital elevators, and the construction of massive orbital space stations proceeded at an astonishing pace… The world flourished, it couldn't be better, and everyone was filled with hope for the future.

--This, this doesn't seem so bad… Heavenly Tribulation system, such a thriving future, isn't that what I've always wanted to achieve?

Su Zhou now felt a deep sense of unease. Watching this scene, he felt as if he was seeing his dreams come true, and couldn't help but widen his eyes.

But, was the world described by 'Destiny' truly credible? What was it trying to tell him by creating such an illusionary world?

Was this really what he wanted?

Soon, Su Zhou, feeling confused about this, learned 'Destiny's' true purpose.

Something was quietly happening in the world.

Under the Heavenly Tribulation system's governance, the world was thriving, but even so, there were still rich and poor people in this world. Although their numbers were not large, the distribution of wealth was still uneven.

The rich, with their wealth, could legitimately obtain more resources, education, and services. They could obtain the highest levels of knowledge and technology to educate their children—whether it was genetic modification, implanted chips, or cultivating extraordinary powers, they could always legally do it; it was their freedom.

The Heavenly Tribulation system would not infringe on one person's rights for the sake of another's interests, and vice versa. The rich could use their wealth to do whatever they wanted, as long as it didn't affect others; that was their freedom.

And the middle class and the poor did not have such favorable conditions. While the social public system could guarantee the most basic education, it was impossible to obtain the same resources as the rich. In fair competition, the rich would always have the advantage.

Gradually, under the order maintained by the Heavenly Tribulation system, people began to differentiate themselves.

Some people would be born as apprentices to their parents' professions, and some people would be destined to do certain jobs—because you were indeed suited for it. Forcibly pursuing unsuitable dreams was essentially causing trouble for others and consuming the civilization's internal resources. The Heavenly Tribulation system would not prevent this, nor would it encourage it.

And insisting on it for a lifetime would only make you a failure.

Under the protection of the Heavenly Tribulation system, the rich could legally expand their wealth, gradually obtain all the resources in the world, and then control everything, while others would become their employees—destined from generation to generation, born as employees.

It was even possible that, under the guarantee of the absolute enforcement system, a 'final producer' would emerge, controlling all the wealth in the entire world, with everyone as his employees.

--The ultimate guarantee of law is violence.

In the past, in that fragile but balanced world, if one person took too much wealth, then unless that person could resist the state's violent institutions, or defend against others' attacks through mercenaries or artificial intelligence, others would amend the law to re-equalize the wealth, repeating the cycle of circulation.

But now, Heavenly Tribulation was the ultimate violence.

It even determined the standards of good and evil, making order even more orderly.

To the point where it was almost like destiny.

Finally, Su Zhou stood outside the atmosphere.

He gazed at the thriving, incomparably orderly, and incredibly prosperous planet below, but one that felt strangely unfamiliar, his eyes blank.

"This is… Destiny?"

He murmured to himself, frowning: "No, this doesn't make sense—why would the existence of a Heavenly Tribulation system lead to the gradual differentiation of humanity, turning professions into family inheritance patterns? And the rich, no one can guarantee that the descendants of the rich will always be rational and normal, right? Even if a third-generation rich kid becomes the president of a major country…"

But the voice in the dark responded.

[This makes perfect sense. Because under absolute order, the choices of intelligent life will also tend toward order, and low-probability events cannot affect the overall trend toward stability.]

[All order is like this—just like producing goods, free manual production, without norms, without standards, cannot compare to the efficiency of standardized, assembly-line production. The same goes for quality.]

[Intelligent life is not a commodity. I love all things, but with rational thought, you will understand that, whether any being admits it or not, whether they are willing or not, over a certain period of time, only one person can reach the peak and become the transcendent of destiny.]

[And under the leadership of a rational, fair, and infallible supreme leader, the overall power of the entire world must inevitably increase. This is something that Chaos can never achieve, just like a master craftsman may produce a work surpassing the factory, but how many masters are there?]

"But such an arrangement of destiny is not fair at all!"

Su Zhou gritted his teeth, staring at the Earth in the illusion. Even in a dream, he found it hard to bear the disgust he felt. "Although it looks beautiful, does this kind of world… really have a future?"

[As long as there is sufficiently powerful order to maintain balance, they will exist forever and ever, longer, more prosperous, and more developed than any civilization.]

The infinitely rotating well-shaped structure, like a grid covering all things, enveloped everything, but without coercion or arrogance, simply calmly, without any emotion or fluctuation: [This is something that no other great existence can guarantee, but I can--I can promise eternal happiness.]

One could see that, on that incredibly standardized and prosperous planet, children were playing happily. There was no discrimination, no high or low status among them. Everyone had their own jobs, serving the entire world and civilization. Researchers could receive rewards and respect for their achievements, and even those who produced toys, if they had further suggestions, would receive fair rewards, and others would congratulate them.

Unity, love, mutual respect. Because Heavenly Tribulation denied all evil, only good existed in the world… In fact, even the concept of good gradually disappeared, because the good of the past was now the common sense, the instinct of civilization.

The planet rotated, the galaxy rotated, the galaxy cluster rotated, the universe also rotated, the endless universe, and even the entire multiverse, were rotating. They were all covered by a vast, immense net, everything was orderly beyond imagination, and everyone within could find their own happiness.

Even more than just good.

Want to fight, to kill? It was possible, there were completely legal and fair battlefields where anyone who wanted to fight could find opponents who also wanted to fight, like Valhalla, like Shura Path, continuing to the end of eternity.

Want to scheme, to deceive each other? It was possible. There were plenty of such worlds in the abyssal depths of Hell, allowing all those who wanted to use their talents to deceive others to encounter others just like themselves. This was naturally legal, because in Hell, deception was not considered a sin, and there would naturally be no tribulation. Devils deceiving each other was their happiness and joy.

Even if one wanted to be tortured, to lose wisdom, to commit suicide, to abandon oneself, to defile and denigrate oneself, then the Animal Path and the Hungry Ghost Path welcomed such aberrant minds—anyone could fairly obtain everything they wanted. Evil people were destined to be together, torturing each other, while ordinary people had their own blissful order.

Heaven, humanity, Asura, Hell, Hungry Ghost, Animal.

--Good and evil are differentiated, the myriad realms of the Six Paths, destiny turns, karma is unceasing--

Whether good or evil, righteous or wicked, all things had their own karma, their own tribulations and suffering, and this eternal rotation, like gears meshing and springs resetting, could continue into the infinite future.

And such correctness… its name was, [Destiny].

Su Zhou watched all of this, he opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to refute something.

But the voice in the dark, as if knowing in advance, said calmly: [Everyone has the opportunity to become a 'protagonist'.]

[Past life, present life, infinite future--in infinite time, one day, everyone can become a protagonist, and obtain the chance for fair, just, and completely equal 'transcendence'.]

[Favored one of Chaos, have you not noticed that you and I are indeed very similar, even perfectly matched?]

"That's not right…"

Su Zhou, for a moment, was unable to refute.

Because the Heavenly Tribulation system displayed by 'Destiny,' that order which judged evil, was exactly what he had dreamed of, what he wanted to become.

But that result left him confused.

However, Destiny's final remark made the youth a little clearer.

Past life, present life, infinite future… this idea was exactly the same as the Silent Lord's?!

No wonder Yala said that this guy had a good relationship with the Silent Lord, this idea was truly identical. No wonder the Six Paths of Reincarnation corresponded to both of them...

Once again, facing the somewhat whimsical Su Zhou, the voice in the dark declared its correctness.

[Destiny should be matched with strict rules and judgment.]

[Reincarnation and Destiny constitute a complete cycle, but if we add absolute force, we will become perfect correctness, an infinite rotation that can continuously generate Destiny Transcenders—the myriad beings of the myriad worlds will one day all transcend, burning with their most brilliant radiance.]

[The Silent Lord originally wanted to invite Chaos, He believed that to transcend Destiny and Reincarnation, the assistance of Chaos was needed--completely wrong, the variables of Chaos do not represent 'better', He simply changes, changes everything original. It leads to the bad becoming worse, and the good may not continue to be good. His existence leads to more civilizations collapsing, and more lives returning to nothingness!]

Just like Yala's loathing of Destiny, Destiny's evaluation of Yala was equally ruthless, but towards Su Zhou, it was extremely patient.

[Contractor of Chaos, I know your desire--you want this world to be free of evil and eternally developing upwards, is this not also a predetermined destiny?]

[So, you and I are very similar. We will ultimately walk the same path, but you and Chaos are destined to contend in the future. You are destined to establish a standard and an order, but Chaos is its mortal enemy.]

[The protection of the Silent Lord, the mark of the Divine Tree, the gaze of the Precursor, and the pact with Chaos, I can see their karma… and I am willing to grant you my greatest blessing.]

This was goodwill.

But the response was a sneer.

Lifting his head, Su Zhou looked directly at the rotating grid. Although he was still confused, it did not affect his bright gaze.

The entire dreamscape began to rumble and vibrate, as if something was shaking outside.

"What you're saying is laughable."

He said, with a dismissive smile in his tone: "It's as if I don't want to beat Yala up right now? What do you know?"

"He's always so evasive when talking to me. I'm already sick of this guy who speaks in riddles and doesn't want to explain everything to me seriously--He's not even willing to tell me why He was sealed, and still wants me to help Him. It's only because I'm kind-hearted, otherwise I would have told Him to scram long ago!"

"Also, after thinking about it, I found that your logic is flawed--why does the Heavenly Tribulation system have to be so rigid? If one person becomes wealthy, making a hundred million others poor, and even intends to control these hundred million poor people--shouldn't this rich person be told to scram at this time? Of course, he's indeed legal, but since I am the Heavenly Tribulation, I am the law, why can't I fine-tune it every era? Even games are updated and adjusted, is the Heavenly Tribulation even inferior to a game balance planner?"

Although he still had confusion in his heart before, as Su Zhou refuted 'Destiny's' vision, his thoughts became more and more complete, more and more clear.

The youth recalled the Reincarnation World, what he said to Yala after killing the God of Water, the first time he said that he wanted to become the Heavenly Tribulation.

At that time, he could not understand why Yala shook her head and denied it, and said that he was actually 'denying half of humanity's potential, the potential for evil'... but now he understood.

Absolute judgment is itself absolute order, a helper of absolute destiny.

Order is necessary, and judgment is also necessary… In some cases, in order to ensure more possibilities, more turning points, some evil… or rather, behaviors that do not conform to the rules, do have their meaning.

Speaking of which, it's a bit of a nitpick… but Su Zhou really couldn't understand this point before, but when he was fighting against Destiny, wanting to refute the other party, he instead understood his true thoughts.

The birth of wisdom is not to follow rules and destiny, to follow the 'future' promised by others, but to pursue a 'better future', 'more possible changes'.

[Destiny] said, this is the only happiness.

--Why? Why is this the only happiness? Who are you? Who do you think you are?

If possible, then one should seek ten thousand roads leading to the future, ten thousand ways to find happiness! No one can stipulate that there is only one way to happiness, and only one road to the future!

"I see, I understand!"

Finally clarifying his true thoughts, Su Zhou now felt that some shackles had broken, some boulders had fallen, and there was an unspeakable ease--that was the joy of clarifying one's true nature and determining one's own will, the enlightenment of breaking free of golden ropes and tearing open jade locks.

Yes, not pursuing the uniqueness of destiny, the locked upper limit, always pursuing a better future, this is the meaning of the emergence of intelligent life.

"Yala and I are indeed different. I don't agree with Yala's complete chaos, arguing with everything, denying everything… what I want is a better future, and Yala recognizes the difference between me and Him."

So, he laughed loudly: "But what about you, Destiny? Can you recognize it?"

The dreamscape shook even more violently.

In the shaking of heaven and earth, all the illusory phantasms dissipated and faded, they returned to the illusory gray mist, permeating the hazy wasteland.

And for Su Zhou's question, Destiny did not answer.

The infinite grid faded, leaving only the still calm words.

[Whether I recognize it or not, the fact is that I am correct.]

[We will meet again… Contractor of Chaos. I will always await your joining.]

And at the moment He left, the dream also collapsed.

Countless gray mists faded in the bright light, and the desolate plains began to crack into countless fragments, then dissipated into nothingness.

Then, Su Zhou opened his eyes.

He woke up and found himself lying in a mountain range, on a flat rock.

It was dawn on Qingqiu Star. The stars twinkled among the scales of white clouds, and at the end of the deep blue horizon, the orange-red glow was rising, gradually eclipsing the surrounding brilliance of stars and moon.

In addition, there was a scarlet snake spirit lying on the youth's chest, impatiently slapping his cheeks with its tail, making a pattering sound--this was probably the vibration Su Zhou felt in his dream, and the reason for the final collapse of the dream.

Seeing Su Zhou open his eyes, with cyan-purple light flowing in them, Yala stopped wagging its tail and sighed.

"You, you were actually directly sanctified by Destiny? Inconceivable, He actually intends to dig into my corner!"

Saying this, Yala's tone was somewhat gnashing, and as Su Zhou sat up straight, rubbing his forehead, He came to Su Zhou's shoulder, bit his neck, and then said somewhat vaguely: "Why do these guys all intend to snatch my contractor? Sizzle…"

Sitting on the stone, Su Zhou silently rubbed his temples, causing steam to rise continuously from the top of his head. He felt that his head and blood were a little overheated, at least exceeding eighty degrees. Yala sucking a little blood actually made him feel a lot more comfortable.

And the situation, as Yala said, was that the Divine Tree did want to communicate with Su Zhou, and eventually did become the Divine Tree King of the Banyan Undying Tree. As for the Silent Lord, He simply wanted to keep him. The Precursor was also optimistic.

Su Zhou couldn't help but sigh--thinking carefully, perhaps he really could be considered popular?

"Damn it, other existences are fine, but even Destiny dares to come and snatch from me?"

At this time, Yala finished sucking the blood, and lying on Su Zhou's shoulder, was still somewhat indignant: "From beginning to end, only Twilight didn't take action--but He doesn't count!"

Su Zhou listened to Yala's continuous complaints. He lowered his head, overlooking the Qingqiu people's camp not far away, and was silent for a long time.

Then, he laughed, then turned his head, and gently pressed his forehead against Yala's.

"Doesn't this mean that your choice was very wise?" The youth said self-satisfiedly, causing the snake spirit to be stunned for a while, and then laugh loudly.

"Indeed, as expected of me!"

After habitually boasting with Yala, Su Zhou got up.

He stood between heaven and earth, stretched, and spiritual energy surged throughout his body, sending out countless crisp sounds formed by the condensation and explosion of spiritual energy.

Then, Su Zhou turned his head and looked towards the Qingqiu people's front-line camp.

On the entire Qingqiu Star, according to Su Zhou's statistics, there were a total of 47,000-odd shelters, with a total population of nearly 100 million, spread throughout every corner of the world, with quite a few even in the Antarctic and Arctic.

A large proportion of them, under the threat of the Heavenly Devils, were forced to transform into ordinary fox forms to survive, like the Ice Fox Clan on Qingqiu Four. Of course, compared to the Ice Fox Clan, the Qingqiu people's heritage and wisdom were better preserved, but Su Zhou suspected that if this continued, after a few more years, they would also truly become beings close to wild beasts.

With so many shelters, even if Gu Zechuan and others were still spreading the word everywhere, gathering strength, it would not be possible to gather too many people in just three months. Currently, there were only a little over six thousand elite armored warriors in the entire Talent Front Line camp.

Of course, saying 'only' was a lot, but being able to gather more than six thousand elite armored warriors was already a considerable force. In the Zheng Nation, this would be at least a fully mechanized cultivator unit, and the average level of the cultivators in it was also at the peak of Awakening!

"Your Excellency!"

At this time, one could see a dark-clothed spiritual light flashing, and Gu Zechuan flew from the camp in the distance, landing in front of Su Zhou, and then knelt on one knee like a military officer paying respects to the commander, saying seriously: "When shall we set out today?"

"At noon. After all, most of the Heavenly Devils have unstable souls, and their strength will decline when they encounter the direct spiritual energy impact of sunlight. Otherwise, they wouldn't have to stir up the clouds to cover the entire world."

Su Zhou was already used to such instructions. In the past three months, he had been directing the Qingqiu army in this way to attack the Heavenly Devil lairs.

The Far Seer returned to Earth, then gathered reinforcements, and returned to Qingqiu Three. The round trip would probably take five or six months. Three months had passed, leaving a little over two months.

Su Zhou felt that, under his leadership, there would be no problem in destroying most of the Spirit Suppressing Towers on Qingqiu Star during this time, but whether there would be any remaining Heavenly Devils could not be guaranteed.

"--Hey, I wonder how the reinforcements will feel when they rush over and see a stable and peaceful Qingqiu Star?"

Thinking this, Su Zhou couldn't help but slightly raise the corners of his mouth, and Gu Zechuan also received Su Zhou's instructions, he responded with a sonorous 'Yes!', and then prepared to return to the camp, announce the time of attack, and begin preparations.

However, just as the white fox youth raised his head, subconsciously glancing at the Venerable leading the Qingqiu people to defeat the evil Heavenly Devils and return to peace, he suddenly noticed something was not right.

Pressure.

Ever since Su Zhou had killed the Nine-tailed Heavenly Devil, destroyed the Heavenly Devil Matrix, and advanced to the Earth Immortal realm, the faint and terrifying pressure that had always existed on his body, making people afraid to approach, had quietly disappeared.

At this time, Su Zhou's entire aura was smooth and unified, balanced and stable, and the brilliance between his eyes was no longer sharp as a blade, but carried a gentle, crystal-clear meaning--but this gentleness was not without momentum, it was an extremely gentle but irresistible majesty.

How to say it? The former was like a mountain towering on a plain, towering, majestic, and eye-catching, but somewhat abrupt.

The latter was like a vast mountain range of plateaus, seemingly unremarkable at first glance, not particularly special, but in essence, it was more vast.

Although he did not know what this meant, he could see that this was clearly an achievement worth celebrating.

"Congratulations, Your Excellency!" Thinking this, he straightened up and sincerely congratulated Su Zhou.

And Su Zhou nodded slightly, he smiled without saying a word, and walked towards the Qingqiu Star camp.

--Earth Immortal Realm, Heavenly Soul Karma Seat.

Su Zhou's霸主 overlord realm was now completely stable.

In his heart, there was no longer any confusion.

...After a long time.

March 3, 2018.

A dazzling silver-blue star appeared at the top of Qingqiu Star's azure sky, dragging a long trail of light as it sped towards it.

Then, there was the second, the third… falling one after another, bringing various orbits.

One could see that these stars were of various sizes, and the trails of light were of various lengths, indicating that they were hurried, and even unable to standardize their size and format.

But most importantly, they were all here--at the fastest speed, with the most resolute posture.

As the brilliance flashed, the wind swept across the earth, causing countless people to subconsciously raise their heads and look up at the vast sky.

The 'star rain' had arrived.

After thousands of years, the brilliance originating from the ancient Central Divine Court ancestral land once again appeared in the sky above Qingqiu Star.
