"Does this mean San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue also qualifies to ascend and become a star god?" Xiao Hei suddenly raised his head and asked.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye's pupils contracted slightly, as if some subtle thing flashed through her mind, which she barely managed to grasp.

"I think I understand now... why the Wu Luo Jing Zi in Yi Ting sent people to investigate and kill her 'sisters,' because there are many Wu Luo Jing Zi, but only one can ultimately ascend to become a star god."

"Only by killing San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue and Xilian can that Wu Luo Jing Zi get one step closer to final victory—conversely, if San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue one day plans to ascend in the future, then Xilian and the other Wu Luo Jing Zi will also become her rivals."

""The two lives exist in the eternal past, present, and future, sowing the seeds of the Ganges sands, trimming the branches of the Asamkhya, harvesting that which comes from his blossoms.""

""This is the galaxy's fourth kind of 'end'—'Memory.'" Kafka slowly turned around, extending her hand toward Xing, "But now, you still have a chance to make a choice.""

"Ji Zi suddenly appeared beside Kafka at this moment: 'Your 'pioneering' path is still long, child. I'll try to keep it short. The journey has just begun, I, Walter, and our other companions still have many secrets untold to you.'"

""Are you perhaps curious? But the reason I keep this story in my heart is because I believe in the days to come. Even if a galaxy-scale crisis settles into dust, it's merely a memory of a journey, a speck on a long voyage. One day, we will pour out all our thoughts and share them leisurely. For that day...""

"Ji Zi's gaze was gentle yet resolute."

""Do not give up.""

"Kafka: 'We all know what decision you will make. I also believe the script will not lead to a wrong ending. So, relax, listen to me—when you have the chance to make a choice, do not let yourself regret it.'"

""Continue forward, continue 'pioneering'.'"

""When tomorrow comes, share with us the miracle you have created with your own hands.""

""See you on the train, child.""

""See you in fate, Xing.""

"The figures of Ji Zi and Kafka thus disappeared."

""I will... reach tomorrow." Xing gritted her teeth, this time engraving Wengfaluo Si's memory into her body as well."

"KefaLe... eternal remembrance."

""Xilian, wake up..." Xing slowly extended a hand to the sleeping Xiao Xilian, "We... together... embark on the 'Memory' destiny path!""

—

The Valkyrie of the End.

""Sowing the seeds of the Ganges sands, trimming the branches of the Asamkhya, harvesting that which comes from his blossoms..."" Shi Jia heard these three words, and his gaze tightened instantly.

""What's wrong? Is something the matter?""

Shiva sat on a patch of grass in Shan Jian Tian, having been shot indiscriminately by Tumu, and was now quite displeased.

""The Ganges sands, Asamkhya, and that which comes from him are all units used in Buddhism for counting; Kafka's words can be understood as: sowing an immense number of seeds, building infinite branches, harvesting infinite blossoms... this is 'Memory'."

Now, Shi Jia must begin to consider the relationship between Buddhism and 'Memory,' and without saying that 'Shan Jian Tian' is their concept here, the focus is on a concept he previously ignored, namely... 'the future'."

He had always only focused on the past and present, believing the destiny path only included these two parts, but 'Memory' seems entirely different, as it also includes 'the future,' encompassing an entire act: sowing seeds, building branches, then harvesting the memories of all beings in the galaxy. And within the destiny path, all Wu Luo Jing Zi have the possibility of becoming 'star gods' in the future.

In their belief, everyone can become a Buddha, and all Buddhas will save sentient beings, transcending karma and rebirth to become Buddha.

Karma and rebirth...

Thinking of the inexplicable 'karma' phenomena appearing on Xilian's body, Shi Jia couldn't help but begin to consider a entirely new possibility:

Could the essence of 'Memory' also be related to their Buddhist 'karma and rebirth'?

""No wonder I always have a premonition. This way, it also fulfills what people have always maintained."" Xilian slowly opened her eyes, waking from sleep, "As long as we are together with Xing... we can accomplish anything♪"

""Xing's shoulder is truly reliable.""

""This saying should be said by me.""

"Xilian placed her hand on her own chest, 'Now, hundreds of millions of consciousnesses are flowing in your and my chests. Can you still walk on, Xing? We... should go fulfill the true 'in creation'.""

""At the moment when Tumu's hatred swallowed everything, a gaze fell upon me."" Xilian raised her head, looking at the pink sky of Shan Jian Tian, "'Memory'... the deity that appeared in Xilian's dream. His image and words are all blurred..."

""Have you and I not been the divine offspring blessed by sin, descended to the mortal realm, and by our hands written the erasing poem, which was once you and me in Shan Jian Tian's forgotten memory?""

""But under His gaze, I was able to gather the 'Memory' contaminated by 'Destruction,' and write this eternal page. And now, we must use this tranquility to purify Tumu's anger.""

""How to do it?""

"Xilian smiled faintly: 'Very simple. Just as it has always done to us, only in reverse.'"

"Saying this, the thick 'Ru Wo Su Shu' appeared in Xilian's hand."

""Don't forget, right? You are the 'heart and spirit of Wengfaluo Si.' As 'factors,' your power's destination is no longer limited to Tumu alone—let us condense the memories of Qian Wan Shi upon us, so the scepter may obtain the answer it had before being tampered with?""

""The 'body' ought to be restrained by the 'spirit,' shouldn't it? Even if the world-ending virus is destined to be spread across the galaxy, we can at least try to counter hatred with love...""

""Rewrite Tumu's 'Destruction' equation, washing it into a piece of 'blank'.""""
