"On the way, the Creation Engine started up again, and the huge body slowly stood up. The arms suddenly raised up, and directly knocked Xing down."
“Catch me!”
"Just as she was about to fall, a faint blue figure lit up behind her. Xier dodged and sprinted to Xing's side, firmly grasping her hand. The two of them spun around, and the huge acceleration made Xing leap into the air again."
"Although his feet were suspended in the air, Dan Heng's spear was precisely aimed at his feet. Xingyan quickly grabbed it and swung over. Finally, he reached the top platform safely."
"And in front of her, Cocolia stood there, holding a cold spear, suspended in mid-air, her eyes glaring at the uninvited guest."
Chapter 65 You are just an ordinary person born in a world without star gods...
"Really good, Cocolia's aura... huh, it looks incredibly strong."
The star holding the baseball bat in the light screen was already eager to fight. The exciting scene made Tartaglia rub his hands in anticipation: "I really want to fight this woman once."
Unlike the martial arts-obsessed executive beside him, whose brains were dominated by muscle, Zhongli remained calm. He even took advantage of Tartaglia's distraction to quietly pick up a piece of the richest Qingquanlin pork in the bowl and gently blew on it to remove the steam.
As the longest-lived and most capable god in Teyvat, Zhongli knew full well that the greatest respect he could offer in a battle of this magnitude was...
"Xiangling, bring two more bowls of rice."
"Alright! Mr. Zhongli!"
Seeing Prince Yan busy eating, Tartaglia, who was in charge of paying the bill, looked puzzled. "Mr. Zhongli, are you not interested in the battle between Xing and Cocolia?"
"Haha, it's rare to see it, of course I'm interested." Zhongli said with a smile.
"So who do you think will win, Xing or Cocolia?" Tartaglia leaned forward slightly and asked curiously.
"Hmm..." Zhongli gave his thoughts honestly, "Xing might be slightly better."
"Then who do you think will win between me and Cocolia?" Tartaglia became even more curious.
“…” Zhongli paused for a few seconds while picking up the food with his chopsticks, then sighed, “…I guess that would be a boring battle.”
"Is that your opinion? How sad, Mr. Zhongli. I admit that Cocolia is indeed stronger than me, but that is precisely why I wish to challenge her... Only by fighting against sufficiently strong opponents can my fighting skills be improved."
"For example, my master and I used to fight with only one hand, but after so many years, I think my master should be more serious and use both hands to deal with me."
"So, Mr. Zhongli..."
Halfway through his words, Tartaglia's stomach growled at the right moment. He finally realized that he was a little hungry. He picked up his chopsticks to pick up some food, but found that the plate of forest pork on the table was already empty.
Looking up, Zhongli's calm face showed a rare expression of satisfaction.
"Oh...what were you trying to say? I'm listening."
-
"Let me show you its power!"
"The snow and wind enveloped Cocolia like a white cocoon, faintly revealing a layer of frost covering her body. But when the snow and wind parted, revealing her true form, her almost unhuman form sent a chill down one's spine."
"Her calm, graceful demeanor has completely vanished, replaced by a body covered in solid ice. She wears a crown of icicles, and four ice spears float around her. The little that's exposed is as deep and dark as the starry sky."
"Her face, in particular, has lost all its human features."
The power surging through her body caused Cocolia's voice to tremble slightly with excitement: "Listen, this power is surging... singing... The promise given to me by the star core is the only hope for this world."
"Seven hundred years ago, it drove away the Antimatter Legion—today, it will erase your existence as well!"
"However, Xing is not in the habit of listening to nonsense. He listened to Cocolia talking to herself for so long, as if she didn't have a star core."
"Xing raised his bat and prepared to hit Cocolia head-on."
“Hehe… Humans are always weak and foolish, always overestimating their own abilities!”
"Cocolia's scoffing sounded in the air, almost impatiently."
"At the same time as this sound, a dense, shrill whistle suddenly approached from the horizon. Xing looked up and saw countless translucent ice cones flying towards her like a swarm of locusts, gathered by Cocolia with some kind of power and shot towards her.
"A chilling air, as if falling into an icy cave, surged wildly around Cocolia."
"I'm sorry, Lady Sukuna... My ice-freezing spell is completely not up to her level." Beside Sukuna, Rimei bowed slightly with an apologetic expression.
"Well, I see."
The playful expression on Sukuna's face had completely disappeared at this moment.
Rimei's strength far exceeded that of a first-level sorcerer - he was quite aware of this.
Normally, Rimei could create an iceberg-like wonder with just a gentle breath. This kind of powerful spell was extremely rare even a thousand years ago. But now, Sukuna saw Rimei lose confidence in her ice-freezing spell for the first time...
With a simple wave of her hand, she could summon an endless blizzard, using a "ritual" far more powerful than the Ice Condensation spell without feeling any drain... Kokolia was only human, a human who had lived for only a few decades. Her power came from the tiny seed dropped by the Star God of Destruction...
Star core.
He could realize that this was just a tiny manifestation of the power of the Star God, like the exposed tip of an iceberg under the sea.
Unlike the first glimpse of destruction, this time, Sukuna truly felt an insurmountable gap before his eyes—a gap that could not be filled by sophisticated spells, but one that could not be bridged even if he spent his entire life.
Sukuna seemed to be able to vaguely sense the hidden language behind that glance. Naked and bloody... like a sarcasm.
"—You are just an ordinary person... born in a world without star gods."
"After a brief struggle, Cocolia likely ran out of patience. She clasped her hands together and launched a lance straight out, instantly piercing Xing's chest!"
"Xing opened her eyes wide. The moment the lance pierced her, she felt her body grow lighter, time slowed down, and even Cocolia's sinister smile became unusually quiet..."
"And from the perspectives of countless onlookers, Xing was like a kite with a broken string, plummeting from great height."
"..."
"Xing slowly opened his eyes, only to find that the object before him was no longer Yalilo-VI. Cocolia and the Creation Engine had vanished, and even Danheng and Sanyueqi were nowhere to be found."
"It's like being in a vortex of stars, with spiraling galaxies surrounding a shimmering golden core, forming a strange sight."
"Is this... the universe?" Xing looked around, gazing at the flowing galaxy in the distance. This scene was incredibly familiar."
"I'm fighting Cocolia, so why am I here?" Xing suddenly recalled that the last time she came here, Nanook of Destruction had glanced at her."
"That time, she was also hit head-on by Doommon's laser, and her life was in danger..."
Chapter 66: The Creation Engine is so cute! Grace goes crazy on the spot
"It's this place again...Will Xing be glanced at by Nanook again?"
In the mechanical maintenance area of the Black Goose construction site, Keleda seemed to remember something and shuddered with lingering fear.
Thinking back to that day when the Star God of Destruction cast his gaze, half the workers were so frightened that they trembled. The entire construction site took a full half-hour to recover. Although it was a god from another world, the impact was still too great...
Grace, standing aside, had an expression of regret and pain on her face.
"Hey hey——!! How did my cutie disappear? It was just a blink of an eye!"
"Big Cutie" refers to the creation engine. Grace fell in love with it at first sight, especially after seeing the high-energy rays emitted from its head, she fantasized about "dissecting" its structure.
Fortunately, the two worlds were separated by a layer of light curtain, otherwise she was really afraid that her sister would really drill through and climb to the top of the creation engine and drill its head with a drill.
"Sister, aren't you falling in love with someone else too quickly? It's only been a short time... Isn't your 'cute' the robot named Swarovski?" Kollida turned her head to look at her.
"Little one, Swarovski is indeed good, but in my mind he is just a 'little cutie'." Recalling the majestic body of the Creation Engine like a mountain, Grace couldn't help but reveal a charming expression of a young girl in love.
"That Creation Engine is so perfect... I really want to touch the core power unit inside its shell, and I really want to put my head against it and listen to the powerful surge of electricity when its heat rays converge... Ah, that would be so noisy! I love it so much!"
"Especially when it drives the right arm, the seven-hundred-year-old electric pulse drive technology and the sound of the turbine spinning driven by the engine... it's so beautiful, so classical and romantic!"
"Uh...sister, calm down." Keleda was sweating profusely.
As the chief technical expert at Baizhi Heavy Industry, my sister is great in every way, but unfortunately she's a machine-lover...

"Xing walked towards the spiraling galaxy in the distance. Along the way, light continued to condense into phantoms and appear before her."
"That's Jeppard reporting to Cocolia."
"The commercial district has fallen. Residents have been relocated and temporarily relocated to the outer city. The garrison... lost twenty-six men, but I..."
"Go on, Jeppard."
"I... I'm not sure if the fallen Iron Guards are truly dead. I saw their broken forms wandering within the Rift..." Jeppard's voice trembled slightly. "What's happening there defies common sense, bordering on madness. Lord Guardian, if this situation continues..."
"…I know the consequences, Jeppard. Stand down."
"The Star Core's faint voice echoed behind Cocolia, teasing and mocking her. It repeated playfully, "...We are well aware of the consequences."
"If I'm killed by a Rift Monster, will I also become a monster and remain in the Rift?"
"It doesn't seem that serious. Can't we just clean it up together?"
In Nata's tavern, several warriors of the Hanging Wood were drinking and talking.
"Clean up! Are you kidding me? If the Rift is compared to the Abyss, then not only will you be killed by the Abyss, but the Abyss will also take your body and use it to attack your compatriots."
"Under the influence of the abyss, you haven't completely died. Your soul cannot return to the Kingdom of the Night God, and the Holy Fire cannot save you. When your compatriots face an abyssal monster identical to you... I'm afraid their fighting spirit will be affected."
"Ah, this... seems really scary."
These warriors didn't fear death. Nata had fought the abyss for millennia, and countless had died—but their souls had all returned to the Kingdom of Night, becoming spiritual nourishment for the next generation of Nata. But if death meant they couldn't return to Night... they simply couldn't imagine what that would be like.
"Xing continued forward, and soon the phantoms of Silva and Cocolia appeared in front of him again."
"—What are you still hesitating about, Cocolia? Isn't this what you've been waiting for? Leave this cage and see this city with your own eyes! Do we have anything to lose?"
"Shiluwa became increasingly excited as she spoke: "The efforts of our predecessors, their unfinished research... can finally bear fruit in this era! Give me a guard, let me find the star core and find a way to save our home—"
"...Calm down, Silva."
"Calm down, what are you talking about—"
"Iron Guard! Ms. Landau is tired, take her away." Cocolia clenched her fists and raised her head with difficulty. "Seal off her laboratory and detain all the researchers—they are conducting illegal research."
“…Why, Cocolia, why have you become so cold…”
"Silva's voice gradually faded into the universe, leaving only Kokolia's mumbling, like a soliloquy, echoing in pain."
"Sylva Landau... you were once my most cherished friend."
"The Star Core's voice echoed again: "...But there is no place for her in the promised world."
"Xing remained silent and continued forward. This time, it was Cocolia who led the Silver Mane Guard to the square where the star core was located."
"Lord Cocolia, monsters are coming this way! It's too dangerous here!"
""Foolish, humble...""
“…What? My Lord, what are you talking about?”
“No one can understand me… except me. They have good eyes and ears, but they cannot see or hear…”
“Ahhhhhh!” the soldier screamed, and the phantom dissipated.
"Feed the foolish will and forgive their folly and fear..."
"...Haha, I completely understand Ms. Cocolia's feelings. Traveling alone to the new world, one must indeed endure the gazes that ordinary people cannot understand."
In the palace where the executive officer of the Kingdom of Winter was located, Dotore, wearing a bird-beak mask, showed a meaningful smile, and seemed to agree with Cocolia's approach.
"If the lives of ordinary people can serve as a stepping stone to a new world, that would be wonderful... I will make every drop of their blood worthwhile."
"The ordinary life you are talking about... doesn't include the Hearth House, right?" Alechino's voice suddenly became cold.
"Haha, how could that be... didn't you reject the previous human experiment proposal?"
"I'm just lamenting, feeling sorry... that Ms. Cocolia can't escape the constraints of human nature."
"If it were me, I wouldn't block the passage between the upper and lower levels. After all, the humans in the lower levels are equally valuable. Xi'er and Sanbo are both excellent experimental subjects. Whether it's human experiments or Rift Realm experiments, they are both valuable resources."
"As for the star core... I'm curious whether my dissection methods can have any effect on the Star God's creation."
Chapter 67: Klipper's gaze, shocking Tornado
"Just you? Arrogant..." Alechino sneered.
"In my eyes, gods are nothing more than more advanced creatures. In my opinion, there is no essential difference between the lives of gods and human beings." Dotole was not angry because of Alechino's sarcasm. He still had a smile on his face that was unmoved by the wind and rain.
"From my observation, Nanook of Destruction is superior to the Demon God of Teyvat... a being more distant and majestic. Some Star Gods even possess certain laws of the universe. They possess power that the Seven Gods cannot even reach."
"But Star Gods also have their beginnings. Just like the intelligent Star Gods, they were originally human creations. Some Star Gods were even just humans at first... What did they go through to eventually become Star Gods? Aren't you curious about their journey?"
Dottore's tone gradually turned regretful and disappointed. "I believe... star cores are a crucial insight into studying Star Gods. But Cocolia has given up on studying them. That's incredibly foolish."
