Chapter 1068: Dusk of Destruction

At this moment, Aiwas' eyes were extremely bright.

At this point, Aiwass finally realized clearly why Huan Tiansi wanted to take away multiple source rivers.

This should have been a very simple question, but because of Aiwas's overly humble character, he could not understand why his other self was so greedy that he was willing to completely let go of the world just to go home; and even ignored the life and death of the world in order to become stronger.

Now he finally understood——

In other words, Huan Tiansi believes that the power that prevents the fusion of the source river is related to the world itself - it is the constraints of zero and ten that make it impossible for the holy number to be eleven. If it can reach eleven, it means that it has surpassed the limit of "ten".

The Path of Love and the Path of Dusk have both been seriously distorted, and as time goes by, they are gradually becoming nothingness. The Path of Balance in the middle is the best, followed by the Path of Wisdom of the Fourth River and the Path of Adaptation of the Sixth River. Devotion and power - or authority - are already a bit sick. Beauty and transcendence are even sicker...

Generally speaking, the closer the road is to the sides, the earlier and more serious the distortion will be.

——This may be due to the influence of nothingness on the source river.

If this continues, I am afraid that the source rivers at both ends will be swallowed up first, and the power of love and dusk will disappear.

…What will happen then?
Perhaps there is no love and desire in people's hearts anymore, and things have lost their end date; or perhaps people are no longer born or die. It is also possible that all the extraordinary people and life on the Path of Love and the Path of Twilight will become monsters... So Amber is the strongest pillar god, and she controls the power of time reversal.

It turns out that when the sky fell, there really was a tall person holding it up.

But the sky had already fallen, and the tall man could no longer hold on.

"Is this how the end of the world will take place? That's why I say... the holy number of nothingness is zero, or ten... it swallows up the paths on both sides at the same time...

“So, perhaps Huan Tiansi wants to take away the path of dedication and transcendence…”

This thought suddenly popped up in Aiwas' mind: "Want to go out and synthesize the Holy Eleven, and then come back?"

“You finally understand.”

The voice of the Lord of Scales and Feathers slowly rang out in Aiwas' heart: "It is the division of the source river that has led to the balance of power, thus limiting the abilities of the pillar gods and restraining and restricting each other."

"boss!"

Aiwass was somewhat surprised by the voice he hadn't heard for a long time: "You haven't made any noise since I came back to the material world."

"Because I'm afraid it will affect your thinking..."

The Lord of Scales and Feathers sighed. Aiwass could even imagine his actions at this moment: "Some things cannot be forced. If you don't understand this truth from the bottom of your heart, then it's just cramming. How can the 'heart' formed in that way be strong and reliable enough to withstand trials and tests?"

"So, my guess is correct? The end of the world really comes from the corrosion of the source river?"

Aiwass asked in his heart: "Huan Tiansi wants to take away the two source rivers. Maybe it's because he thinks that as long as he leaves this world, the source rivers can be merged?"

“——That’s why he becomes the backup option.

"You guessed right, Aiwass... This is probably the memory from Huan Tiansi. The corruption from nothingness is like this.

"That was a world-destroying disaster called 'Dusk', which is also one of the origins of the name of the Dusk Path. One of the meanings of the Dusk Path is 'solidification'; and its other meaning is 'the end'. All things die, and the death of our world is called Dusk. So the path representing death became the name of Dusk."

The Lord of Scales and Feathers finally gave the answer to the question that Aiwass had never understood - since Huan Tiansi wanted to draw away the source river and abandon this world, why would there be any gods who could stand on his side or even test Aiwass?

The reason is simple, because they don't know whether Huantiansi is reliable.

"dusk……"

Aiwass murmured, "Twilight of the Gods?"

"Yes, that's where the name comes from. They are scourges born from the wreckage of other worlds, with the wailing and despair of an entire world. Every individual dusk is different... They will devour other worlds in their own way, thus bringing equal destruction and despair to other worlds. If they can do this, then our world will be destroyed in the same way... We will merge into one and become a part of them.

"And if our world is destroyed in another way under the oppression of the dusk, we will become the new dusk." "Death of the world... Dusk Egg..."

Aiwass murmured in a low voice: "Then...what is going on with the twilight in our world?"

"It's called 'Whisper of the Void', and it's just one of these dusk creatures... but even so, we couldn't defeat it despite our best efforts.

"It can corrupt people's minds and wills, quietly changing their minds, but making them firmly believe that it was all their own thoughts. Therefore, it is fatal to our world of 'power through thought'... Gods, who are phantom demons without bodies, cannot fight it. Maybe some gods have even been corrupted."

The Lord of Scales and Feathers said sarcastically.

"The Pillar God... can do that too?"

"of course."

The Lord of Scales and Feathers said, "Otherwise, what do you think the Vanguard of the Candlestick is dealing with? When the Whisper of the Void descended upon our world, it locked up the birth of the only thought that could possibly defeat it - [Hope]. Originally, the Source River was constantly increasing, but it occupied the position of the Holy Number of Ten, and no new Source River would be born. This is why... Ai Shiping has been pursuing the 'Impossible Holy Eleven'."

Aiwass finally understood——

It's like a group of people are trapped in the mountains, and one person intends to take away all the supplies. He relies on these supplies to at least survive. And he claims that he will go out and find rescue and come back with rescue.

——The question now is whether this person can be trusted. And how long this world can last.

If they have no other choice, they will eventually have to do so.

But they have a new option - that is to trust Aiwass.

If they trusted Aiwass, Aiwass would lead them straight out of the mountain.

But can they do this? If they can't, it will also mean death.

The reason why Si Zhu didn't have much ill will towards Huan Tiansi was probably because he felt... it was better for someone to survive and pass on the power of this world than for everyone to die here together.

It is even possible that this plan was first proposed by Si Zhu.

"Do you think," the Lord of Scales and Feathers asked, "that guy will come back?"

"I……"

Aiwass was about to say no, but he fell silent.

...It’s hard to say.

After all, he was once Aiwass. Although he was Aiwass who had abandoned all his devotion...

Thinking of this, Aiwass shook his head to dispel the momentary fantasy in his mind - he could not leave his fate in the hands of others.

"I won't believe him."

Aiwass closed his eyes: "I will save the world."

But now, Aiwass felt a little courage in his heart.

The most terrifying thing is the unpredictable unknown.

If you can clearly understand the opponent's expression, it will be possible to defeat him.
