Chapter 758 God’s Good Will
High up in the tower, Shen Xi's words were powerful, and Yu Cang and La, who heard them, fell into silence.

The existence in front of him called the Emperor Star... "the usurper"?
Yu Cang did guess that this visitor from before the epoch might have a different understanding of the Imperial Star than they did, and she might know more and more secret information.

But, no matter what, Yu Cang never expected that when Shen Xi talked about Emperor Star, he did not even hide his disdain and contempt for it, and even spoke frankly about Emperor Star's incompetence.

Judging from this sentence and Shenxi's attitude, he must have completely figured out Dixing's whereabouts, which is why he said this.

However, Yu Cang still found it hard to believe that the usurper described by Shen Xi was referring to that Emperor Star.

After all, along the way, the impression that Emperor Star gave him was that he was too high and mighty, too authoritative.

Apart from anything else, the "Death Emperor Star" made in the True Dragon's Death Land a few days ago is enough to prove that the Emperor Star does indeed possess the highest authority in the star world.

The power of the Emperor Star is absolute domination. No matter how powerful the opponent is or how high his level is, as long as the Emperor's heart exerts force, he can turn the power into his own use.

Yu Cang has a lot of soul cards that borrow the power of the Emperor Star, so he knows how high the level of the Emperor Star is.

Therefore, when I first heard Shen Xi's words that were completely contrary to my impression, they felt quite fake.

He and La looked at each other.

Then, he calmed down a little and said, "The usurper... I don't know who it is...?"

Yu Cang hopes to get more information.

This was also his purpose in opening up this site.

Hearing this, Shen Xi did not speak immediately, but just crossed his arms and looked down at Yu Cang with cold eyes.

Behind her, in the darkness of the Cemetery of Stars, the battle was drawing to a close.

The wild beasts have been frightened.

Under the endless attack of the insect recognition, even the dumbest wild beasts could know that they could not get close to the white tower.

The ubiquitous corpses of wild beasts and the ubiquitous smell of death have left the fear of the White Tower deeply engraved in the hearts of the wild beasts!

Until, a mythical wild beast could no longer hold on, with insects crawling all over its body. It fell from the sky into the crystal sea while gnawing endlessly, and its desolate roar spread in all directions... The fear in the hearts of the wild beasts finally overcame their appetite.

With a shrill scream, the wild beast desperately ran away from the white tower and never looked back.

The roar gradually weakened, and before long, the dim crystal sea near the white tower returned to being shrouded in darkness, and no more roars could be heard.

No more consciousness insects flew out from the chaotic ocean above their heads. Above the dim crystal sea, all the consciousness insects were crawling on the ground, using their mouthparts to gnaw on the corpses of the wild beasts bit by bit.

It's safe here for now.

If a beast tide of that magnitude happened on Blue Star, I'm afraid no country would be able to withstand it unscathed.

Some countries may even be destroyed because of this.

But Shen Xi just waved his hand, and then leisurely patrolled the white tower and easily repelled the enemy.

"The so-called wild beasts are born from desire and die from desire."

Shen Xi said casually, "As long as we carve fear into the hearts of wild beasts, we can deal with it calmly."

Yu Cang’s guess was correct. The ability of [Consciousness Devouring] was what the Identifier used to defeat Huang, but Shen Xi strengthened this part of the ability.

The insect-knowledge that has come to the world can directly attack the opponent at the rhythmic level, making it difficult to defend against.

And, as Shen Xi said, when they fight, they will emit a unique rhythm that intensifies the enemy's fear.

The wild beasts cannot resist their own desires, and when the desire to survive overcomes everything else, they will flee.

With this ability, almost all wild beasts, except for the condemned tribe who have only one desire in their hearts, are unable to resist the consciousness insect head-on.

As long as there is fear in the heart, it will intensify and magnify infinitely as the battle progresses.

Shen Xi came close to Yu Cang and looked down at him: "You latecomer, are you still confused?"

"I wonder why Emperor Star is called 'the usurper'."

"...Well, I'll tell you."

All of Shen Xi's insect eyes closed at once.

She was silent for a moment before continuing:

"He, took the name of the Lord; He, took away the name of the Lord. He, because of desire, murdered the stars; He, because of desire, implicated all living beings. His name is Emperor Star, He calls himself Emperor Star, He cannot bear His sin, He cannot bear His name. He betrayed, He fled, He killed, He robbed. He is Emperor Star, He is not the Lord."

Shen Xi said this.

Like a ballad, or a poem, Shen Xi spoke these words in a strange accent, as if he was singing.

Whether it was the tone, the sound quality, or even the language, they all seemed completely different from what Shenxi had said before, as if another person was speaking.

But Yu Cang could understand it anyway.

Could this... be another kind of "Word of God"?
But at this time, Yu Cang was no longer interested in the issues of language and accent.

This passage contains a lot of information.

That "Him", if Yu Cang's guess is correct... should refer to the "Emperor Star".

However, another person appeared in this passage.

host!
It can be seen that...even the Emperor Star has to be called "Lord". Before, the Emperor Star should be the subordinate of this "Lord", but later, the Emperor Star betrayed the Master because of desire and then fled.

Then, what is the conspiracy to murder the stars... and why do they involve all living beings...

Suddenly, a sentence flashed through Yu Cang's mind.

...Desire grows until the stars are destroyed...

This was a prophecy made by Grand Master Vaughn of Roland Sky Realm.

From the literal meaning, it seems that... the description is very similar to what is said in this passage...

However, that implicated all living beings...

A flash of inspiration came into Yu Cang's mind.

No way...you mean Huang?
hiss!
Yu Cang took a breath of cold air.

If the desolation itself was caused by the Emperor Star... then it can indeed be said that it has implicated all living beings...

At this time, Shen Xi continued:
"This is a Hadith from the Holy Land of Syria, the 'Church of the Star Lords', and it reveals a piece of history."

Yu Cang: "...Xu Lan Sheng Bang?"

"I am to them as you are to me."

"..."

To Yu Cang, Shen Xi is a person from the last era, which means... the holy nation of Xulan is a civilization from an even older era?

Maybe not the previous one, but in any case, it is a civilization older than Shenxi.

In other words, this passage is the archaeological achievement of that time...

Yu Cang couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Under the star realm, no one knows how many epochs have passed.

During such a long period of time, every era had a brilliant civilization, but the final outcome was the same: destruction.

At present, Shen Xi has indeed successfully survived to this era, but if we look back at the path he has taken, this way of survival is not safe.

The ruins needed to be opened when the civilization of Yuanxing was lost... If Yu Cang hadn't been there, the ruins might never have been opened.

Even for a powerful civilization like Shenxi, it would be so difficult to survive the transition of eras... Can he do it?
Shen Xi seemed to know what Yu Cang was thinking.

She said: "You should know that you have made great contributions to our clan. I will grant you whatever you ask for. Therefore, if you join our clan, I will allow you to share the glory of the Star Lord."

Yu Cang: "..."

At this moment, even his heart was shaken. If it was really as Shen Xi said, then their civilization might have mastered a way to survive the wild beast crisis.

If...if Blue Star could really join in, then...perhaps, the pressure on me wouldn't be so great.

Yu Cang lowered his head and looked at his hands.

Every step of the way, he was winning.

It seems to be a glorious time, but in fact, he can only win.

The future crisis is too terrifying. What else can Yu Cang do except win in the end?

But, even if the ages of his two lives are added together, he is still less than fifty years old. For such a young man to have such a heavy burden on his shoulders and not even have a stable enough support... one can imagine the pressure he must be under.

If...if I agree now, if I just rest like this, it seems...that would be fine.

After all, he was not really sure. Even if he went all the way to the end, even if he fought to the end...what if he still could not defeat Huang and Blue Star still perished?

If then, those Blue Star people who died because of his failure, would they blame him for not choosing this more stable path now?

Yu Cang didn't care about such complaints, but what couldn't be ignored was that at the moment, it was indeed a better path for Blue Star.

Rather than relying on your younger self, it is better to rely on an ancient and seemingly successful civilization.

Thinking of this, Yu Cang fell silent.

And Shen Xi was not in a hurry.

It seemed that just as she said, Yu Cang opened up the ruins, and the contribution he made was enough for Shen Xi to tolerate anything from him.

After a while, Yu Cang suddenly said, "Then...my people..."

"I can promise to let your loved ones ascend into the Emperor's consciousness and be on the same level as our clan. As for the others, they can serve as supplies for our clan."

"..."

Yu Cang's pupils contracted.

"Feed?"

Shen Xi's tone did not change: "My people feed on wisdom. You should do the same in the future."

"..."

Hearing this, Yu Cang's eyes fluctuated slightly, and then he chuckled.

It turned out to be the case.

Ah...I thought I could finally take a break.

It turns out that they are also a group of man-eating devils.

Yu Cang took a deep breath, and his heart, which had just been shaken, became firm again.

Sure enough, no matter what time it is, the only one you can truly rely on... is yourself.

Yu Cang's expression became firm: "Sorry, I refuse."

A flash of light flashed through the mysterious insect's eyes.

She seemed to still know what Yu Cang was thinking: "Later generations, that kind of emotion is no different from survival, you should abandon it."

Yu Cang shook his head: "Sorry, I am a human being, and my civilization needs me."

Shen Xi: "Later generations, the Syrran Hadith says, 'The Lord's Mother will be born after the Lord's death.' The day of her birth will be in this era. My people will serve the Lord's Mother, slay the Emperor Star, and seize power. By then, there will be no more of my kind, only food."

Yu Cang: "..."

This is another passage that contains an explosion of information.

Mother of the Lord?
She looked like the mother of the "Lord" whom Dixing once served.

Is it in this era... It seems that this should be what Shen Xi said, the "last step".

So...it seems that the current Shenxi tribe is still unable to completely rely on themselves to achieve absolute immunity to Huang.

Only by getting the blessing of the "Mistress" can you be completely free from fear of the wilderness.

Yu Cang kept this information in mind.

I'll study it further later... Perhaps, he has to look for a way to fight against Huang and Dixing from this direction.

Collect your thoughts.

Yu Cang raised his head and looked at Shen Xi, his expression had become serious.

"Sorry, I still refuse."

"..."

Shen Xi didn't say anything and turned his gaze to La standing aside.

"Me too." La's expression didn't change much.

There are not so many dietary restrictions.

Normally, he certainly doesn't have the habit of "feeding on wisdom", but if it is necessary for survival, he won't hesitate.

To put it simply, there is a bottom line under normal circumstances, but he can lower the bottom line at any time when necessary.

From this perspective, joining Shenxi is a good choice.

But unfortunately, now La only wants revenge.

Moreover, he has already chosen Yu Cang.

Firmness is a virtue that a mage must possess.

“…It doesn’t matter.”

Shenxi's tone remained unchanged.

"After joining our tribe, you will understand our tribe."

Shen Xi's actions came from her "goodwill". She really regarded Yu Cang and La as their heroes. They would repay the favor and give Yu Cang and La the due rewards.

As Yu Cang thought, their method of surviving the transformation of the era was not 100% successful, and it could even be said that the probability of failure was quite high. Therefore, Yu Cang, who had accomplished all this, had made a great contribution, so great that he must share the glory with the gods in order to repay his kindness.

reject?

It doesn't matter.

We are returning the favor, it has nothing to do with you.

Your refusal is because you don’t have the perspective of the gods.

When I turn you into gods, you will naturally understand this kindness!

This is the gap in understanding between civilizations, and also the profound arrogance of higher races towards other races!
To give an example...just like, humans sterilize other animals to make their bodies healthier, to extend their lifespans, and to allow humans and animals to get along better.

The so-called sacrifice is the inability to reproduce.

This is the kindness of mankind.

But, it has nothing to do with the species to which kindness is directed!

hum!
When Shenxi said this, La had already realized that there was nothing to talk about.

This was indeed the case. At this moment, all the insect senses around the tower stopped their actions almost at the same time, and turned their gazes towards them on the top of the tower.

So, La clapped his hands without hesitation and activated the spell he had prepared earlier!
"Yu Cang—go first!"
