Chapter 81: Awakening

"You're awake?" Lin Xiyue looked at him with pleasant surprise.

"Mm," Tang Yun smiled slightly, "How long have I been asleep?"

"Three days and three nights," Lin Xiyue said with a pained heart, "You scared me to death."

Tang Yun gently patted Lin Xiyue's hand, signaling her not to worry.

"The Observer has already been eliminated. Earth is safe," Tang Yun said, "You can rest easy now."

Lin Xiyue nodded, but tears could not stop flowing down.

"Stop crying," Tang Yun gently wiped away her tears, "Everything is in the past."

Lin Xiyue threw herself into Tang Yun's arms, hugging him tightly, and began to sob loudly.

Tang Yun gently patted her back, letting her vent the emotions in her heart.

After a long while, Lin Xiyue finally stopped crying, raised her head to look at Tang Yun, her eyes filled with tenderness.

"Tang Yun," Lin Xiyue said softly, "I love you."

Tang Yun's heart trembled violently. He looked at Lin Xiyue's affectionate gaze, his heart filled with being moved.

"I love you too, Xiyue," Tang Yun said affectionately.

The two embraced tightly, feeling each other's body temperature, enjoying this moment of tranquility and happiness.

Suddenly, the ward door was pushed open, and a doctor wearing a white coat walked in.

"Mr. Tang Yun, you're awake?" the doctor said with pleasant surprise, "How do you feel?"

Tang Yun was just about to answer when he suddenly felt the world spinning, his vision went black, and he lost consciousness.

"Tang Yun!" Lin Xiyue shouted in terror.

The doctor hurriedly stepped forward to check, his expression becoming grave.

"His body..." the doctor hesitated for a moment and said, "seems to have undergone some kind of mutation..."

Lin Xiyue's heart sank violently, as if gripped tightly by an invisible hand. She stared fixedly at the doctor, asking word by word: "What mutation? Speak clearly!"

The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead, his eyes flickering, not daring to look directly at Lin Xiyue's gaze that was almost spitting fire.

"His genes... are collapsing and reorganizing at an incredible speed. We have never seen this situation before..."

"Collapsing and reorganizing?" Lin Xiyue grabbed the doctor's collar, her nails almost embedding into his flesh, "What does that mean? Will he die?"

The doctor swallowed with difficulty, "No... not necessarily death... but..." He paused, as if gathering great courage, "His bodily functions are disappearing, and in their place is a... an unknown energy..."

Lin Xiyue released the doctor, staggered back a few steps, and fell powerlessly into a chair.

Her mind was a blank. Could everything Tang Yun had risked his life to protect have ultimately gone down the drain?

The ward was filled with the beeping alarm sounds of instruments. Tang Yun lay on the hospital bed, his face terrifyingly pale.

A faint golden light emerged on the surface of his body, flickering in and out, as if breathing with a life of its own.

Suddenly, the golden light flared brightly, stinging people's eyes so they couldn't open them. Lin Xiyue subconsciously covered her eyes, and when she opened them again, the hospital bed was empty.

"Tang Yun!" Lin Xiyue screamed and rushed to the window. She saw a golden light shoot into the sky and disappear into the vast night sky.

At the same time, this sky-piercing golden light was observed all over the world. The internet exploded instantly, with all kinds of speculation emerging one after another.

"Alien invasion?"

"Birth of a superhero?"

"Omen of the end of the world?"

No one knew what had happened, and fear and unease spread among the crowd.

At this moment, Tang Yun was floating in a void. He could not feel his body, but his consciousness was exceptionally clear.

"Welcome to the Cosmic God Throne, Evolution God," an ethereal voice rang in his ears.

Tang Yun was shocked. Evolution God? What kind of thing is this?

He struggled to see the surrounding environment clearly, only to find himself in a state of chaos, with no up, down, left, or right, and no time or space.

"I am the will of the God Throne," the ethereal voice continued, "You have been chosen to become the new Evolution God, shouldering the mission of guiding the evolution of the universe."

Tang Yun sneered, "Guide evolution? What does that mean?"

"Civilizations in the universe are divided into higher civilizations and lower civilizations,"

The God Throne will explained, "Higher civilizations possess more advanced technology and more powerful strength, while lower civilizations are destined to be eliminated. Your mission is to clear away all lower civilizations that refuse to evolve, making room for higher civilizations."

Tang Yun felt a chill in his heart. Clear away lower civilizations? How is this any different from genocide?

"I refuse!" Tang Yun said without hesitation, "I will not become the executioner in your hands!"

The God Throne will did not seem surprised, "You do not have the right to choose, Evolution God. This is your destiny."

A powerful force imprisoned Tang Yun. He felt his consciousness being devoured, and his body gradually became cold and numb.

Just then, a familiar voice rang in his mind: "Tang Yun, hold on!"

It was Lin Xiyue!

Tang Yun felt a surge of joy. He used all his strength to resist the control of the God Throne will, roaring: "Xiyue, I'm here!"

A golden light tore through the chaos, and Lin Xiyue's figure appeared before Tang Yun.

"Tang Yun!" Lin Xiyue shouted anxiously, "How are you?"

Seeing Lin Xiyue, a glimmer of hope ignited in Tang Yun's heart.

"I'm fine," Tang Yun endured the severe pain in his body, "I will not yield!"

A glowing sphere appeared in Lin Xiyue's hand, "This is your gene chain from infancy, preserving your purest humanity. I will inject it into the core of the God Throne to awaken your humanity!"

Lin Xiyue thrust the sphere toward Tang Yun, and the sphere instantly merged into Tang Yun's body.

A powerful energy erupted from Tang Yun's body, impacting the entire God Throne space.

"No! This is impossible!" The God Throne will let out a terrified shriek.

Tang Yun's eyes regained their luster, and he felt his strength rapidly recovering.

"Evolution has no high or low, only freedom!" Tang Yun roared and punched the core of the God Throne.

The core of the God Throne, like a giant crystal ball, floated in the chaos, emitting a cold blue light. Tang Yun's fist, wrapped in golden Chaotic Medical Qi, smashed fiercely into the crystal ball.

Crack!

With a crisp sound, a crack appeared on the surface of the crystal ball.

"Ah!" The God Throne will let out a miserable scream, as if suffering great pain.

Tang Yun did not stop, and smashed another punch down.

Crack! Crack!

The cracks became more and more numerous, denser and denser, and finally, it shattered with a boom!

The core of the God Throne burst open, turning into countless fragments, scattering in the chaos.

At the same time, Tang Yun felt a powerful force pouring into his body. This force was as vast as the sea and as majestic as a mountain, making him almost unable to bear it.

"Ugh, ah!" Tang Yun roared in pain, his body trembling violently. ===== CHAPTER 82 =====
