Chapter 1873: Sixth-Generation Spirit Tablet

Sixth-Generation Spirit Tablet

Jing Si's gaze fell once again on the densely packed red dots arranged in regular patterns on the map.

"So that's how it is..." Jing Si muttered to himself, "But, if even this is just a miniature model, how big must the main body of the Star-Severing Crossbow be? Is the time we have left enough?"

"The Path of the Artisan from all major domains have already gathered in the Tianshu Domain. With them personally taking the field to forge these sixty-six Star-Severing Crossbows, plus massive manpower support, the time should be enough."

"Of course... the premise is that all kinds of logistical resources can keep up."

Duke of Stars looked at Jing Si solemnly.

It wasn't until this moment that Jing Si knew just how important the task he was about to take over was, even directly affecting whether humanity could survive the next Red Star's Return... Immediately, the pressure on his shoulders was incredibly heavy.

"I know." Jing Si took a deep breath,

"I guarantee the completion of the task."

Ancient Vault of the Drama Path.

A figure in a Theatrical Robe stepped silently into the Ancestral Shrine.

Chen Ling's sleeves fluttered lightly, and five Spirit Tablets drifted down from his hands back onto the offering table in the Ancestral Shrine. The dim yellow candlelight shone on the surfaces of the Spirit Tablets. The five "Nameless Actors" had different calligraphy styles and temperaments.

"In this battle of the Red Dust... many thanks to everyone." Chen Ling looked at the five Spirit Tablets and spoke in a mutter.

Without their help, even if Chen Ling could defeat the Calamity of Mockery, he absolutely couldn't have devoured it so easily. But the power in these five Spirit Tablets decreased by one point for every point used. The fourth and fifth ones were still okay, but the first three were already somewhat dim, as if covered by a layer of dust.

Chen Ling picked up the Spirit Tablets one by one, wiping them carefully, trying to brush away the faint dust covering them, but even so, the first three still couldn't recover.

At this rate, these few Spirit Tablets would probably be completely reduced to ordinary objects after not many more uses.

The others were still fine... but this first Spirit Tablet was left behind by the first-generation Nameless Actor. Once the Heaven God Path Dao Foundation power contained within was exhausted, it would be almost impossible to replenish.

Without the Heaven God Path Dao Foundation, wanting to Reboot the World again would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

In other words... Reverse the Era and Reboot the World were not infinite. The chances left for humanity were at most two or three, at least... maybe only one.

Chen Ling carefully wiped every corner of the first-generation Nameless Actor's Spirit Tablet. Just at this moment, as if sensing something, his fingertips rubbing the base of the Spirit Tablet paused slightly.

A trace of confusion flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Chen Ling turned the first-generation Nameless Actor's Spirit Tablet upside down and carefully observed the base. Only then did he discover that on the base, a line of small words was actually lightly written with brushstrokes as tiny as a mosquito or fly...

Perhaps because there had been too many reboots and the era was too ancient, this handwriting was already blurred and indistinct, but looking closely, it could still be vaguely discerned:

[The method to solve the Red Star, is on the Red Star?]

Chen Ling was stunned.

Although the font was already blurred, the final "?" was exceptionally heavy, as if back then, after the first-generation Nameless Actor wrote this sentence, he pondered for a long time and emphasized by adding a "?" onto it... Even separated by the distance of several worlds, Chen Ling could feel the other party's past confusion.

The method to solve the Red Star is on the Red Star... Could it be that the past generations of Nameless Actors boarded the Red Star one after another precisely because of this sentence?

Undoubtedly, this sentence was truly too important for those chaotic eras where no hope could be seen.

Civilization had regressed, order was chaotic, and the situation was terrible. In the early worlds, humanity even found it very difficult to survive until the second Red Star's Return. In that dark era where no direction could be seen, for the past generations of Nameless Actors, this sentence left by the first generation might have been their only clue, and also humanity's only way out.

Therefore, even though they knew boarding the Red Star was extremely dangerous, they still advanced wave upon wave to board the Red Star, attempting to find a method to solve the Red Star...

But looking at the current situation, the past generations of Nameless Actors must have all failed.

Otherwise, the Red Star wouldn't appear again.

Chen Ling put the first-generation Nameless Actor's Spirit Tablet back on the offering table, picked up the Spirit Tablets of the other generations, and carefully inspected them. The bases were all clean, and no similar words were found.

"On the Red Star... what exactly is there?" Chen Ling fell into deep thought.

No matter what, the current sixth-generation world already possessed the ability to confront the Red Star head-on. This was a chance they had fought hard to win... Chen Ling couldn't give up all the current preparations because of one sentence, and then, like the other Nameless Actors, recklessly board the Red Star to seek death.

Regardless of whether there was a solution on the Red Star or what the solution was, as long as brute force was used to completely destroy it, everything would be over.

Chen Ling temporarily tossed the messy thoughts to the back of his mind, and took out a blank Spirit Tablet identical to those on the offering table from under the offering table.

Chen Ling's fingertips rubbed the surface of this blank Spirit Tablet, his gaze as deep as a winter lake.

Many years ago, Chen Ling had begun preparing this Spirit Tablet that belonged to himself. He had members of the Dusk Society enter the Divine Archive of Craft, took out this rare special material from inside, and then polished it little by little into the outline of a Spirit Tablet...

This material was very special. Although it looked light and thin, it could carry massive energy, and would not suffer wear and tear with the passage of time.

Now the decisive battle with the Red Star was imminent, and Chen Ling didn't know what the outcome would be... To be safe, he should leave behind a Spirit Tablet that belonged to him.

This way, even if an accident happened to him, he could also leave a unique trump card for the next generation Nameless Actor.

Chen Ling closed his eyes. Surging Aura agitated within the Ancestral Shrine. Scarlet Calamity power frantically drilled into the Spirit Tablet like a swarm of pythons. A red sun that seemed capable of burning the void slowly rose above the desert...

Fierce winds howled, sandstorms danced wildly;

Chen Ling was not stingy with his power at all. Under the continuous infusion, it was as if he wanted to burst this Spirit Tablet.

It wasn't until fine cracks began to appear on the surface of the Spirit Tablet that Chen Ling finally stopped.

The violent Aura that swept across the entire desolate Ancestral Shrine finally gradually returned to calm. That massive red sun in the sky dissipated little by little, and a scorching yet exhausted breath spat out from between the lips of the Thespian in the Ancestral Shrine...

Dragging his heavy body, he shifted toward the offering table bit by bit, his pace as slow as an old man who had been completely drained.

His pale knuckles gripped the Spirit Tablet emitting a violent World-Ending Aura. The fingertips of his other hand raised, and on the blank space on the surface, left behind four elegant and graceful characters:

——[Nameless Actor].

He slowly placed the Spirit Tablet in the sixth position on the offering table.

Compared with the first five Spirit Tablets, this sixth Spirit Tablet had the most irritable and ferocious Aura, but the handwriting on it was the most gentle and elegant one. Just standing there, it made it very difficult for people to move their gazes away.

No matter what the final outcome was, this sixth Spirit Tablet represented the sixth-generation Nameless Actor and the era he personally rebooted.

This might be the only, and also the last thing he left behind in this world.

Looking at this Spirit Tablet, Chen Ling muttered to himself:

"It's time to..."

"Decide on the candidate."
