Chapter 725 Unblessed Life, Part Two (6000)

Venerable Sovereigns are immortal, nearly impossible to destroy.

Generally speaking, unless there is a sudden explosion of the axial black hole, a chain collapse and destruction of the universe's space-time, a fusion and cancellation of the sub-space reality, and other universe-level cataclysms, it is impossible for a Venerable Sovereign to die.

Even in battles between equals, they would torment each other for a long time, the two Venerable Sovereigns slowly grinding each other down. It would take them half a day to send their opponent into the resurrection process—wanting to kill someone with one blow would be looked down upon.

However.

If several Venerable Sovereigns joined forces to attack, and someone struck their already fragmented wounds and spiritual energy structure with the true meaning of 'Twilight', even a Venerable Sovereign could easily die.

It was not surprising that Ya Dian was besieged, because he had just been forcibly supporting his wounded body, trying to rush towards the cosmic rift.

This Entropy Shadow Venerable Sovereign wanted to send out a call, summoning the surrounding Nihility Fiends that had already begun to gather, so that they would not have to wait for the Nihility Cult's army to attack in advance, disrupting the Seresnostian's and Entropy Shadow's plans, and stirring everything into chaos.

Therefore, without Su Zhou needing to say anything, or even interrogate him, the Entropy Shadow Venerable Sovereigns, Heng Dian and Zhi Dian, angrily took the initiative to attack, dismantling Ya Dian's defenses.

Then, Su Zhou concentrated his mind and struck, cutting down with the 'Twilight' sword intent.

Innovation does not always bring hope.

It brings death, weapons, slaughter, despair, and complete destruction.

Innovation certainly has its downsides. Anything that focuses on efficiency while neglecting the process and purpose will fall into the destruction of the Nihility—many people think they can avoid this, but who can guarantee it? Once the wheels of history start rolling, there is no turning back.

What innovation needs most is preservation, and self-negation. Otherwise, blindly approving and pursuing progress without a bottom line will only walk on the dangerous edge, entering the realm of the Nihility.

Leading to 'Twilight'.

Su Zhou sheathed his blade. This was the result of his comprehension of many great existences, including the 'Truth of Twilight'.

A path of Twilight more pure than that of the Twilight Affiliates.

Using Twilight to slay Twilight was also the best special attack method against the Twilight lineage that he found after the Ten Aspects of the Finale.

In his current state, he had at least a 330% special attack bonus. If Su Zhou had already known this move when he was being hunted down by the Four Annihilation Envoys of the Nihility Cult, then he felt that he could take on all four of them at once!

At this time, the Venerable Sovereigns came to Ya Dian's side, who was on the verge of dissipation.

[It seems… this time I'm really going to die.]

[I guess, there won't be a chance to be resurrected either.]

The divine blade filled with the intent of the Nihility retreated, but the fragmentation of his body was irreversible.

Ya Dian sensed that the space-time entropy flow spiritual energy structure that constituted his body was burning bit by bit in the ultimate self-iteration, until it finally collapsed and turned into nothingness.

This was innovation, and also the Nihility.

A blade that slays madness with madness.

Although he was initially angry that the other party used Twilight to kill him, which was the ultimate humiliation, Ya Dian now had a kind of acceptance after helplessness.

—To die under a Twilight blade, perhaps that's not a bad ending?

However, before 'death' came, he still wanted to roar.

But not because of Su Zhou.

But a kind of 'questioning' of all the confusion in his heart.

Questioning… 'Why'.

[Why? Will the universe have an end, will there be heat death?]

[Why? Clearly life was born, but why make them know that everything has a final end?]

[Why? We Entropy Shadows, what were we born for?]

[Why? Other universes all have endless spiritual energy, and even have sources of 'infinity' like the Galaxy Star!]

[Is there no answer to anything, is it just 'no reason, reality is like this'?!]

Even on the verge of death, Ya Dian's spiritual voice still stirred up waves throughout the Dusk Star Region. Even space-time was affected by the shock, rippling.

His roar, although increasingly weaker, was clearly audible to the surrounding Entropy Shadows and Venerable Sovereigns.

Before completely dissipating, Ya Dian could see that Su Zhou and the Seresnostian Venerable Sovereign imprints, as well as Heng Dian and Zhi Dian had already come to his side, staring at his dissipation, ensuring his true death.

Without looking at the Earth Venerable Sovereign who had killed him, Ya Dian met Heng Dian's gaze at this moment.

[Heng Dian… we are just by-products of those garbage and dregs in other universes.]

[Just like that Earth Venerable Sovereign said, I knew a long time ago that the Veil Realm is a garbage can and decomposition pool for other universes. From the beginning, it was not set up to nurture life.]

He frankly mocked himself to this friend, who was both angry and confused, and completely didn't know why he had joined the Nihility Cult: [But we were still born—because the Great Seal was broken.]

[We are lives that are not hoped for from the beginning, nor blessed.]

[Entropy Shadow… should not exist, born because of 'mistakes'.]

[Just like those faulty AIs, faulty man-made objects, because they do not meet expectations, even if they exist, they are meaningless.]

[That's why we have to suffer so much.]

[I have been searching for answers, and finally learned some truths from the Nihility Cult… perhaps They are lying to me, but I can't deceive myself—I believe Their words, I feel despair and 'unwillingness' about everything.]

[The Veil Realm is a universe that should be destroyed. My clan should have pursued the Nihility, and should not be trapped in this sad dead land… no matter what the final result is, Heng Dian, lead the clan out of the Veil Realm. It never expected our birth. It's just because of a mistake that it can't eliminate us temporarily. When it officially operates, the first to be expelled will be us.]

At this moment, this Entropy Shadow Venerable Sovereign recalled the bitter and desperate debates and arguments among the Entropy Shadow Venerable Sovereigns after learning that heat death was about to descend upon the Veil Realm.

[We cannot escape the universe. Our universe is too closed. Even if we gather the strength of the entire clan, we may not be able to break through the barrier…]

[Isn't there even a little weakness that can be exploited? Clearly we all know that there are other lives and other universes outside. They can also travel and trade with each other. There's no reason why we can't do it!]

[It can't be done… our universe is too special, there's really no way… if no new spiritual source falls, heat death will probably be our end.]

——Is everything we gloried in, the final ending of the Entropy Shadow clan over hundreds of millions of years, really going to be so ridiculous?

To suffocate to death in our own home, unable to break free and escape no matter what, and only desperately wait for the arrival of the end?

Too Nihilistic… especially when the Seresnostians opened the cosmic rift, and the Entropy Shadows learned that the other side of the universe actually had infinite spiritual energy, this strong contrast and jealousy made the emptiness grow even more.

Why?

Why?

Ya Dian could never answer this 'why'.

And if there is no answer to why, then let's destroy it.

Destroy everything that is wrong.

This is the only way.

Ya Dian firmly believed that in this process, the true 'correctness' would definitely come to stop them.

Those true meanings will, and must, fight to the death with them, these 'things of error'!

——If the meaning of the entire sealed multiverse is the 'Great Seal', is to 'seal all great existences'.

——Those existences who created the Great Seal, and allowed us 'errors' to suffer…

——We must 'destroy the Great Seal' and 'release' all the 'great existences'!

At this moment.

Su Zhou narrowed his eyes. He could not deny the possibility that Ya Dian stated.

When the Galaxy Star returns to its place, and the Veil Realm officially operates, turning into the great cauldron that he predicted, and begins to refine everything within, it is indeed difficult to guarantee the survival of the Entropy Shadow clan.

There is a chance that they will be fine, but there is also a chance that they will be erased.

And for an entire civilization, this chance is something that cannot be gambled on.

However, under foreseeable circumstances, the Seresnostians probably wouldn't put the Galaxy Star back until the three seal fragments were collected.

And when the three fragments are collected, the contradictions in the entire sealed universe will be almost settled, and then the problems of the Entropy Shadow clan can be discussed.

After all, the universe is so big, it's not difficult to find an empty star system to give to them. There's no need to worry too much about these small matters.

However, just when the young man felt that Ya Dian and Heng Dian's conversation was 'people's words are good when they are about to die', he suddenly heard Ya Dian's voice directed at him.

[And you!]

[Do you really think that you are 'correct', and born of expectation?]

Although Entropy Shadows have no eyes, Su Zhou felt Ya Dian's almost fierce gaze.

He could tell that the other party was mocking him: [The entire sealed multiverse… the infinite dimensions we are in, in the final analysis, are also born because of 'mistakes'.]

[Whether it's you Earth humans, or the Seresnostians, or even the earlier ancestral civilizations, the Primal Behemoths… all are 'weeds' growing disorderly on the seal!]

Su Zhou could understand what the other party was talking about.

He knew a long time ago that the entire sealed multiverse appeared because of the structure of the Great Seal, and therefore became a 'multiverse'.

In other words, if the Great Seal is the coffin of the great existences, then all the lives in their sealed multiverse are moss on the coffin lid.

But, even if that's what they said…

"Weeds also have the meaning of weeds."

Su Zhou lowered his gaze, he stared at Ya Dian, who was about to dissipate, and seriously replied: "Moreover, who said that our existence is a 'mistake'?"

"You must know that there is a great existence named the World Tree, and His correctness is 'existence'."

"What's more." Speaking of this, the young man couldn't help but laugh: "Venerable Sovereign Ya Dian, if you really think you are right, why don't you call yourself correct and tell everyone?"

"There's no reason to use other people's standards to call yourself wrong, and then argue with others—are you a psychopath?"

Ya Dian didn't have time to refute Su Zhou, of course, it was also possible that he didn't bother to refute Su Zhou.

In short, he dissipated.

And a hazy gray light, as if observed through a convex lens, a strangely lustrous evil soul light cluster, appeared in front of the young man.

"Sigh."

With a sigh, Su Zhou stretched out his hand and naturally took off this evil soul under the gaze of all the Venerable Sovereigns.

Although the other Venerable Sovereigns could also see the evil soul, they couldn't understand the relationship between the evil soul and Ya Dian for a while. At most, they vaguely realized that this was part of Su Zhou's divine power, so they didn't interfere.

Witnessing the demise of this rare Twilight Affiliate who could communicate, the young man was actually a little emotional: "Actually, what you said is not wrong—if it were me in the past, knowing this news, I'm afraid I would also feel rebellious, and would have to release all the great existences, and must let those who clearly made the seal, but did not consider the subsequent birth of the multiverse, and the birth of all living beings know that They were wrong."

"But… now, I have another idea—those who created the Great Seal may not have thought of our existence, but They just silently smiled, watching our birth… and then, did not stipulate whether we were born to guard the seal, or to open the seal."

Staring at the evil soul in front of him, the young man shook his head slightly.

"In this way, the decision-making power for the continuation of the Great Seal falls into the hands of all living beings—if we think the seal should exist, it will continue to seal, and if we don't think so, then the seal will break."

"And the sealed great existences can also use this process, to be acknowledged by the lives of a multiverse, to prove their 'correctness' again—because only when all lives want Him to leave the seal can He escape this seal, return to the outside of the Great Seal, and join that correct battlefield again."

"And we, at least we can choose, even if we don't choose, at least we can still live according to our own wishes."

"This is the greatest freedom."

Neither Heng Dian nor Zhi Dian could understand Su Zhou's words.

But among the Seresnostian Venerable Sovereigns, several showed thoughtful expressions.

Because they existed because of the Galaxy Star, and also had some understanding of the essence of the Great Seal, they could understand Ya Dian and Su Zhou's emotions.

Therefore, they fell into contemplation.

"Yala, is my idea right?"

Asking the snake spirit in his soul space in this way, Su Zhou asked, but didn't want to know the answer. He just smiled lightly with Yala: "After all, the World Tree and the Great Dao Tree are really right—we still exist, and that is correct."

"Even if They really didn't think about it, so what? At least, we lived, born because of the Great Seal, and that's better than not being born."

"It's all good things."

Ya Dian's evil soul was not huge, at least not as huge as the Star Devourer's evil soul in the past, but it was more condensed and solid.

Su Zhou stretched out his hand, and his power compressed this evil soul, turning it into a materialized evil soul crystal, held in his hand.

Closing his eyes, sensing the power of this evil soul, Su Zhou couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"As expected of the soul of a Venerable Sovereign, it's so powerful?"

[Space-Time Entropy Shadow · Ya Dian's Evil Soul]

[A desperate soul tormented by heaven and earth, finally deciding to torment heaven and earth]

[Although it is just a fragment of the soul, it contains the endless essence of the Venerable Sovereign's soul]

[Directly swallow, greatly increase the affinity for subspace, speed up the warp cooldown, reduce consumption during warp travel, and obtain a subspace guide beacon]

[Spiritually forge, transform into the spirit attachment of 'Void Divine Escape', attached to all equipment and props]

[Use special techniques to forge, can be cast into the soul soldier of 'Subspace · Infinite Far Point']

[Use special techniques to harmonize, after taking it, you can obtain the inheritance of 'Indestructible · Entropy Time Curve']

[Ask yourself, examine the group, look around the universe, ask the world thousands of times and not get an answer, finally determined to go to the end: All things are built on the Nihility, it is truly the fruit of error]

[Born because of mistakes, died because of mistakes, in the final analysis, it is not really admitting mistakes, but is just seeking what is correct, a soul that is unwilling to admit this even in death]

[That's why it's sad]

After sensing it, Su Zhou understood that many of Ya Dian's abilities had not been brought into play, or rather, could not be brought into play against him and others.

Ya Dian's power not only involved subspace.

His abilities had extended to the point of time!

As the Entropy Shadow clan, which is most sensitive to the arrow of entropy, their standard for judging time is the speed of entropy increase.

Initially, Ya Dian may have wanted to slow down the increase of entropy, that is, to let all the Entropy Shadows sleep, so that the change of entropy was reduced to the lowest level, which is also the idea that general Twilight Affiliates would have.

To this end, Ya Dian used his divine power to influence time and space, trying to distort time and space like a black hole, creating 'different time reference frames'.

Of course, in the Veil Realm, there is no matter, so there is no black hole, but the Entropy Shadow clan can do similar things with spiritual energy. Ultra-high density spiritual energy condensation can also cause space-time distortion, which is the origin of Ya Dian's divine power to tear space cracks at will.

As long as Ya Dian distorts time and space, then the Entropy Shadows located within his domain can spend an extremely long time outside in a very short time, until a new spiritual source falls.

Just like the closer you are to a black hole, the slower time passes.

And in this process, Ya Dian naturally and inevitably perceived the existence of the 'singularity' in theory.

He realized that if his ability was strong enough, while creating a large enough space-time distortion, and rapidly rotating it, then he could create a closed timelike curve!

In other words, it is a real time machine, which in a sense, avoids the power of heat death!

But the problem comes.

Not to mention that Ya Dian is actually far from being able to transform his body into a spiritual energy singularity, creating a Kerr black hole, and forcefully creating a time machine in a clumsy way like the Pishi Phoenix—even if it was created, so what?

He still can't break the cosmic barrier of the Veil Realm, and he still can't change the ending of heat death. It's just living it again, repeating this cycle countless times.

Having seen the end of his power from the beginning, Ya Dian had completely despaired from that time on.

So it is not surprising that he came into contact with the Nihility Cult later, and was successfully persuaded by the Nihility Cult Leader.

Inheriting the 'Indestructible · Entropy Time Curve' is the essence of Ya Dian's divine power. The essence of this divine power is to condense one's own spiritual energy, simulate a singular point similar to a black hole, create space-time distortion around oneself, and then easily tear subspace and destroy everything in matter through various spiritual energy fine-tuning.

If it is to deal with Entropy Shadows, who have no mass, Ya Dian's ability can easily capture them, slow down their time, and be defeated unknowingly.

But unfortunately, the Seresnostians are born with amazing mass, and Su Zhou is also the kind of compressed individual who looks thin in clothes, but is actually very heavy, so Ya Dian's attempt to use his time-based ability is a bit beyond his ability. He can't easily capture them, so he can only use the spatial divine power to fight hard.

As for the spirit attachment and the divine weapon, one effect is 'subspace jumping with almost no cooldown', which is a very practical divine power, and the other is 'when attacking with this shapeless divine weapon, you can ignore a certain distance', which is also a fighting artifact.

However, Su Zhou doesn't plan to eat this evil soul immediately. He wants to study it first, so he took this fragment back to his soul space.

At the Venerable Sovereign level, it is basically impossible to hunt all the 'evil souls', only fragments.

However, even the Venerable Sovereign fragments are larger than the entire evil soul in the past—after all, the immortality of the Venerable Sovereign lies only in their information, and the dead body and soul do contain all their power, but no matter what, this cannot be regarded as all of the Venerable Sovereign.

If you want to completely kill Ya Dian, you must first destroy Ya Dian's inheritance in the Entropy Shadow clan, and the many strange spatial structures created by Ya Dian, which are used to serve the various spiritual energy facilities and space-time structures of the Entropy Shadow clan, cannot be destroyed just by saying so.

Su Zhou also doesn't care how Heng Dian and Zhi Dian view this Nihility Cult inside man of their clan.

"You see, the Nihility Cult has indeed eroded very deeply into your interior, even a Venerable Sovereign is Their inside man."

At this moment, Su Zhou said to Heng Dian and Zhi Dian on the other side, who didn't know whether they were sad, angry, or confused: "Do you still think that the Nihility Cult is a good ally?"

"You can stand by and watch our battle with the Nihility Cult, but don't forget that if we fail, the Nihility Cult's attitude towards the Entropy Shadows will probably not be much better."

With Ya Dian as an example, Su Zhou's words are very convincing.

Even Heng Dian had to consider the threat of the Nihility Cult at this moment, and cautiously put the matter of going to war with the Seresnostians behind.

[We promise… during this time, we will not interfere or participate in your war with the Nihility Cult]

Slowly saying this difficult decision, Heng Dian's tone was heavy: [But Venerable Sovereign Su Zhou, I still don't quite understand what Ya Dian said, but you seem to understand it very well]

[I hope that when you have time, you can explain to us in detail what the situation is with this universe… no, the multiverse we are in]

"No problem."

Su Zhou solemnly promised: "Even if you don't ask, I will say it."

"The truth about everything in this multiverse should be known to all living beings."

Adjust update time!

Today's update was interrupted, mainly because the plot update tomorrow is more important, and it will be bigger. It is better to do it in one go
