Chapter 1570

Inuyasha.

"Building a new city-state upon the shattered scorched earth..."

Inuyasha spread his hands, a helpless expression on his face, "But the reality is, once Iron Tomb is thoroughly defeated, Wengfaluo Si's calculations will cease, and all Wengfaluo Si people will vanish—this cannot be changed no matter what. Rebuilding... how could that possibly be?"

"Is there any other way to keep them?" Gewei asked softly, her gaze shifting from the sky curtain to Milele, "For instance, by creating bodies for them? Using Screw Star's technology? Letting all Wengfaluo Si people possess intelligent machinery bodies?"

Milele stroked his chin, not immediately denying it but instead seriously considering for a few seconds: "This... I think there is indeed some feasibility. Wengfaluo Si people are a string of simulated electrical signals within the scepter; if we could find a way to transfer these electrical signals out, perhaps there is indeed a chance for them to live outside Wengfaluo Si. As for their civilization... as long as we can bring the people out, civilization can take root and sprout."

"Iron Tomb hasn't been taken down yet—wouldn't discussing this be a bit premature?" Sango said with a hint of helplessness, "I truly envy your mindset; Iron Tomb is about to be born, yet you all seem completely unfazed."

"Who said I'm not tense?" Milele sat down on the ground with a wry smile: "But the events in the sky curtain aren't something we can decide; all we can do is try our best to loosen the barrier and protect as many people as possible."

The four continued forward, when suddenly they discovered a letter left on the ground ahead.

Xing Xiao shook the sand and gravel off the letter, discovering it was actually a maxim from Fen Feng.

"Entitled 'Maxim Left by the Absolute Extinction Sovereign Fen Feng:'"

""The arrogant sun that arose without affinity has walked the path of elevation bestowed by the creator god, yet still resists his future.""

""He would not hesitate to add countless wounds to the god through repeated destructions; though that wound is barely existent, merely a glimpse of the god—for this fury tearing the 'knowledge' barrier, he bestows a modicum of favor.""

""Through this battle, I have already tested the god's wrath in forging 'Iron Tomb' its form. My fellow beings awaiting birth, the sovereigns walking the path of destruction—He now awaits your coronation, together announcing that the old era has been swallowed and buried by deeper darkness.""

"Fen Feng, his maxim to me feels like..." Lu Ye stared intently at the yellowed letter in the sky curtain, his brows gradually furrowing, "A ruler."

"Huh? A ruler?" Xiao Hei blinked in confusion, eyes widening.

"Meaning, Fen Feng is like a ruler, measuring pathfinders like Bai E for Nan Nu Ke, to see just how strong they are." Lu Ye said, "But from his wording, Bai E had already embarked on Nan Nu Ke's path of elevation then, meaning that as long as he nods in agreement, he is recognized by Nan Nu Ke as an envoy."

Looking at it now, this could also be considered a kind of affirmation of Bai E's strength? Gazing across the entire universe, probably few could harm a star god.

"So, during that previous gathering of Absolute Extinction Sovereigns before Nan Nu Ke, wasn't it precisely to hold an onboarding ceremony for this new colleague, Iron Tomb?" Xi Muzi narrowed his eyes, gently swaying the folding fan in his hand, tone half-joking, half-serious, "It does feel rather ceremonial... I wonder if these envoys privately also have team-building activities like that?"

"Even if so, probably only Huan Long and that Dice Head fellow would participate." Lu Ye replied casually, pulling the corner of his mouth slightly to the side, "Those Absolute Extinction Sovereigns Li who can communicate normally are just these two. Although Fen Feng and Xing Xiao can also speak, they don't seem like particularly humorous people."

Humor sense.

Though attaching it to the Absolute Extinction Sovereigns might feel somewhat... abrupt, in Lu Ye's eyes, Huan Long is already one of the few among this group of sovereigns who is relatively easy to communicate with. If one day we could capture this Sui Yang, who knows if we couldn't extract information about other sovereigns from her through interrogation.

""Fen Feng? This name feels very much like me and the Little Prince merged together.""

""Sai Feier comes and goes like the wind—in the blink of an eye she has already flashed to stand before everyone.""

""Ah, finally here, Gray Child! And..."" Sai Feier's gaze darted between San Yue Qi and Xilian's pink hair, "... uh. Two girls, you really do look alike? Don't rush, let me guess. This pink-haired one must be the 'Original Wisdom Seed,' De Miao... De Miu Ge Miss!""

""And the other one wearing a flower, surely she's the March Little Sister from the Train Organization?""

""Hearing your words is like hearing words."" Xing Xiao scratched his head.

""Xilian: 'What she said isn't wrong. There really are similar flowers in the world.' ""

""Just joking. Look at you all, brows furrowed and faces grim—how could you possibly accomplish world salvation?"" Sai Feier turned to gaze at the massive rift behind her, "How about some good news: this place may look like a ruin at first glance, but anyone can tell it's certainly not that simple—"

""Having said that, Sai Feier produced a gleaming golden object from somewhere: 'Look. I dug three feet down and finally unearthed some treasure.' ""

""Golden feathers... ""

""Familiar? It's the feathers from that salvation boy; appearing here only proves one thing—this ruin is the 'seal' he built from the remnants of his body over thirty million ages.""

Xing Xiao lifted his head, gazing at the rift in the sky capable of tearing the heavens, Bai E's voice faintly audible in her ear:

""No need to weigh one's heart, no need to crave victory. If I was born merely as a vessel for sin... then let me roar toward sin, to 'pioneer' dawn for future generations!""

Dan Heng instantly understood his intent: "Ah, so he imprisoned Iron Tomb this way to buy time for the outside world."

""It's his style. People say cats have nine lives, but dying and reviving, dying and reviving again and again, millions of times—no one could endure that." Sai Fe Ya slightly lifted her head, a glint of admiration in her eyes, "Perhaps only he could endure it.""

Genshin Impact.

"Wait wait wait——!"

Wei Si Na suddenly realized something, hastily waving her hands: "If this place is the 'seal' formed from Bai E's remnants over thirty million ages, then when the time comes to battle Iron Tomb, wouldn't we have to break the seal, destroying Bai E's remnants?"

"I'm afraid your guess is correct." Danika casually tossed the vegetables back onto Wei Si Na's plate, nodding in acknowledgment.

"Hey hey, don't agree with me right now, Danika! I hope my guess is wrong! If I have to personally destroy Bai E's remnants, wouldn't that be too much..."

"But for Bai E, this is actually a relief." Danika interrupted her expressionlessly, "On the contrary, so-called 'reluctance' merely prolongs Bai E's suffering—think carefully, what exactly has he endured thirty million ages waiting for?"
