Chapter 454: I Don't Want to Acknowledge You as My Son Anymore

A quarter of an hour passed.

This unit of time is both very long and very short.

Perhaps it is the lifetime of some creature, or perhaps a single breath of some gargantuan entity.

The Master of Light refined and digested all the gods.

His entire being became more unfathomable and more filled with light.

This world seemed to truly be entirely light, with warm radiance everywhere.

Ninety-One, that God-Tier Puppet who had killed the God of Fury in seconds, now had its only remaining arm fall off, and blood flowed continuously.

The Master of Light looked directly at Ninety-One: "Your heart is filthy; even having obtained the Father God's inheritance, you have no power to resist under my radiance."

Ninety-One was struck by a blow of Divine Power from the Master of Light, its divine body left in ruins.

This scene shocked the gods and players in Iron Stone City.

To them, Ninety-One's strength was already infinitely close to a Master.

Yet, it did not even take a single blow from the Master of Light.

The Master of Light exerted too strong a sense of oppression upon everyone.

Forty-Nine and Eighty-One exchanged a glance.

Ninety-Nine's gaze finally lost its dazed look.

The three top-tier God-Tier Puppets charged toward the Master of Light without hesitation.

And then... they self-destructed.

The self-destruction of the top-tier Strong Divine Power, if unrestricted, would be enough to overturn the entire Continent, causing seawater to backflow or even evaporate.

And there were three of them.

The God of Metal atop Iron Stone City had a complex look in his eyes: "Injure... injure the Master of Light!"

He no longer hoped that the three of Strong Divine Power could defeat the Master of Light; he only hoped that their self-destruction could injure the Master of Light and delay the Master of Light's progress.

However, ideals are always contrary to reality.

"Light."

Three beams of radiance descended from the sky, directly enveloping the three God-Tier Puppets.

The Master of Light's voice was vast, resounding throughout the entire world.

"I represent absolute light!"

"I represent absolute fairness!"

"I represent absolute justice!"

Crack.

The three God-Tier Puppets, even while self-destructing, did not stir up a single wave.

The Strong Divine Power that had just been slaughtering gods was, before the Master of Light, as weak as a child.

The Master of Light was too powerful!

Invincible!

Unrivaled in the world!

He is absolute light!

This was the inner voice of everyone!

The thought of him being invincible arose, and even some players developed this notion.

"Don't be afraid, the Manager has not yet made a move!" Hong Ying said loudly.

The other players nodded one after another.

Right, the Manager is the true Master of this world.

The Daughter of the White Snake saw this scene and truly could not understand why these people had such confidence in Lin Chao.

The Master of Light in the Heavenly Vault had a gaze like a pure white Sun, his voice like pouring sunlight: "Child of Calamity... it is time for things to end."

The Master of Light finally began to resolve his final enemy, the Child of Calamity... An Qian!

Only the Child of Calamity An Qian was worth him taking seriously.

Those from beyond the heavens must not be underestimated.

Back then, he usurped the Lord of the Heavenly Court and unleashed his strongest strike to pierce the body of the Divine Emperor of Gu Tang.

Yet, the Divine Emperor of Gu Tang still did not die.

It was only when several Masters joined forces that they finally suppressed the Divine Emperor of Gu Tang.

He then seized the opportunity to steal from the several Masters and replace them.

Although the him of back then could be suppressed with a single hand by the him of now.

Yet, he remained vigilant toward those from beyond the heavens, not daring to have any contempt.

This Child of Calamity was a more troublesome enemy than the Divine Emperor of Gu Tang.

"Sigh, I didn't expect you to have such great ambition.

This world restricted you, but it also made you."

A soft, charming voice arrived, and An Qian, dressed in white robes, appeared above Iron Stone City.

Her appearance was not particularly beautiful, or rather, merely above average, yet she still gave people a sense of peerless elegance.

The Master of Light looked at An Qian, his gaze remaining kind and benevolent throughout.

Looking only at his exterior, he seemed like a compassionate and merciful Saint.

"Child of Calamity, long time no see, have your injuries healed?"

In the eyes of the Master of Light, there seemed to be concern.

"The world will soon usher in a rebirth, a light; there will be no more strife, no more war."

"To be honest, I still miss the world of the past."

"After all, no one can fight me anymore."

"Fortunately, there is still you!"

The Master of Light's gaze was gentle; he did not look like an enemy to An Qian, but rather an old friend not seen for many years.

Fighting intent suddenly erupted; Light stepped upon the Void, and the defenses atop Iron Stone City collapsed in an instant.

"Child of Calamity, fight me."

The Master of Light spoke, radiance as his robe, the great sun as his weapon; at this moment, he was like a god of war.

He wanted to use a hearty, unrestrained battle to end the past and open up a new life.

An Qian looked at the Master of Light, her gaze heavy, carrying a trace of despair within it.

"If I were not yet injured, and you had not yet devoured other gods, I could naturally fight you."

"Now... I am not your match."

An Qian said regretfully.

On her pitch-black hair, a few strands of silver were mixed in.

Her state was not very good.

"What, do you not dare to fight?" The Master of Light spoke, his voice vast and mighty.

Inside Iron Stone City, the God of Metal, Eyun Xiaojie, and even the Daughter of the White Snake watched An Qian nervously; at this moment, An Qian was their only chance.

An Qian looked at the Master of Light and smiled: "I have always avoided battles I am not certain of... unfortunately..."

Her personality was just like that; she did not do things without certainty.

The pity was that her clansmen could be said to be in a crisis at this moment.

Sending the Divine Emperor of Ancient Tang to this survival zone had already exhausted most of the clan's resources.

Sending her over as well had brought resources close to depletion.

Her clansmen could not wait.

Therefore, no matter what, she...

"Come, Light."

"Let me see the power of the Child of Destiny!"

An Qian's voice became cold.

A strange, Ghost-like aura permeated her body.

That aura was very obscure and filled with chaos, as if it were completely out of place in this world.

However, there seemed to be a trace of the same origin.

Therefore, this kind of aura was able to descend into this world.

Bathed in this aura, An Qian's strength climbed continuously, and the injuries on her body healed completely.

At this time, she stepped into her peak, and the aura on her body made the few gods still alive in Iron Stone City tremble.

Primordial Chaos Infinite!

This was the technique An Qian practiced, and also her reliance.

"It is a pity that this is, after all, only a... low-limit world."

"I cannot exert the power of Chaos Infinite at all."

An Qian's gaze was calm.

Even if she forcibly unleashed the technique, she was still not the Master of Light's match.

Knowing she would surely lose, she would still fight!

"Fight!"

The aura of Chaos Infinite swirled around An Qian's body.

An Qian's strength also reached an unfathomable level, even, one could say, far exceeding a Master.

The expression in the Master of Light's eyes changed slightly, becoming fanatical.

"This is the feeling!"

"No wonder, those from beyond the heavens are the greatest enemies!"

The Master of Light finally caught a whiff of danger again.

This made his eyes gleam with brilliance.

"Clear you away, and there will be no more obstacles in this world!"

Lin Chao was indeed very strange to him, but having been born in this world, his upper limit was merely a Master.

He, the Master of Light, was the Child of Destiny and did not fear people of this world at all.

Only those from beyond the heavens like An Qian were his true enemies.

The battle... began.

The fire of civilization was leaping.

At this moment, Lin Chao was in a place of nothingness.

His consciousness became blurred.

Or rather... it became numb, cold, and absolute.

He had been in this place of nothingness for nearly an hour.

His goal was to use the fire of civilization to replace the Heavenly Dao of this world.

Possessing the Forging Heaven Art, he was not rejected by the Dao of this world.

It was just that, having merged with the Dao, his emotions and consciousness underwent tremendous changes.

"Is this destiny... or rather, the Dao?"

In other worlds, Lin Chao had never truly observed the Dao.

Or rather, the Children of Destiny that appeared only had better luck.

But now, in this world, he was at this moment one with the Dao.

His state had also become strange.

"Emotions receding, feelings dissipating... becoming absolute Rule."

Lin Chao's voice was somewhat stiff.

This was the price for becoming the true strongest in this world.

However, Lin Chao did not care.

As long as the reincarnation ended, he would still be himself.

"This kind of experience... is also quite good."

Lin Chao did not resist it.

To him, this was also a kind of Dao.

At this moment, within the void earth, the Fire of civilization burned continuously.

The former Dao, that ethereal wisp of energy, had also merged into the flames, becoming a wisp of smoke floating above the fire.

"The current me... can be considered the strongest in this realm, right?"

Lin Chao felt that his "Limit Breaker" talent could be used at any time.

Once used, he could leave this world.

All along, his goal had been this.

"Is it time to go?"

The current him was absolute reason.

However, having just merged with the Dao of this world, Lin Chao could still maintain a portion of his own emotions.

But... after a long time, once he completely became the Dao, he would...

By now, he also understood the true purpose of the Forging Heaven Art.

That was... to forge the Dao.

In Iron Stone City, the Master of Light looked at An Qian, disappointment revealing itself in his eyes.

"It is a pity that in the final battle, you could not let me have a hearty fight."

In the distance, An Qian's hair was already completely white, and the Chaos Infinite Qi on her body drifted away in all directions.

Facing the current Master of Light, she was simply no match.

Or rather, the gap was vast.

"I have lost." An Qian's gaze became dull.

She did not fear death; what she feared was the annihilation of her race.

The Master of Light sighed: "A new world will be created soon, but for some reason, I always feel a bit of regret."

The Master of Light did not look at An Qian again.

Because An Qian had already lost, or rather, was not far from death.

Just like the Divine Emperor Gu Tang.

The Master of Light's sigh lasted only for an instant.

Immediately, his gaze became spirited.

All the Strong Divine Power, the vast majority of gods, had already merged into one with him.

The remaining Ordinary living beings, humans or elves, or perhaps gnomes, were not worth mentioning to him at all.

His gaze looked toward Iron Stone City.

"You clearing out the gods helped me and saved me quite a bit of trouble.

I have always been clear about gratitude and grudges.

So this 'thank you' will not be missing."

"Thank you."

"However... you are sinners.

As punishment, you are not qualified to enter the new world with me."

The Master of Light walked forward, raised his hand, and dense radiance permeated the air.

The God of Metal, the Daughter of the White Snake, and other gods revealed expressions of despair in their eyes.

"It's over."

"You are not a God of Light at all; you are the greatest evil!" a god cursed loudly.

Unfortunately, there was simply no way out.

On the field, only the players had a good mindset.

Hong Ying looked at the remaining dozen or so gods and said softly: "What are you afraid of? The two days... have arrived.

We have already completed the task of the Manager.

Next, it is time for the Manager to make an appearance."

A smile bloomed on Hong Ying's face.

Having directed the battle for two consecutive days, she had consumed much, but she did not feel tired.

On the contrary, her spirit was exhilarated.

The daughter of the white snake remained unmoved upon hearing this.

She only regretted not having let Lin Chao take her away sooner.

Or rather, she regretted not having captured him ten years ago, back when Lin Chao was still young!

The other gods also did not know where Hong Ying's confidence came from.

"Regardless, this life has been enough," an Elder of the Heavenly Court spoke up, "Death is also a form of liberation."

Diya smiled: "Indeed, I would rather vanish into thin air than have my body manipulated by others."

Although desperate, these gods were also more carefree at this moment.

However, just at this time, the Master of Light above the Void suddenly had a slight change in expression.

The great sun upon the Heavenly Vault also turned blood-red at this moment.

The radiance circling his body slowly disintegrated at this moment.

The surrounding environment became scorching hot.

"The white radiance is gone!" a god discovered this anomaly.

"No, it has turned into red light!"

"What is this!"

Everyone sensed that this world was undergoing a change.

In the eyes of An Qian, a look of shock also appeared.

She looked at the Master of Light, her gaze shocked: "The destiny is slipping away!"

The Master of Light was, after all, the true Child of Destiny.

But at this moment, the destiny on the Master of Light's body was slipping away at an extremely fast speed.

The white radiance surrounding his body that represented his divine office was also slowly changing.

"How is this possible!" The Master of Light was shocked for the first time.

He found it hard to understand and impossible to imagine.

But immediately after, the Master of Light thought of something, and he roared loudly.

"Who is it!"

"Who has stolen my status as the Child of Destiny!"

This situation indicated that destiny no longer favored him; he was no longer the Child of Destiny.

This meant that someone had replaced him and become the new Child of Destiny!

This was hard for him to accept.

After all, everything he had done was in accordance with destiny.

What destiny desired was also to create a world just as he had imagined.

As a result, at the final moment, such an unexpected turn of events had occurred.

"Who exactly has stolen my status as the Child of Destiny?" the Master of Light asked again, his eyes blazing with ten thousand rays of light, as if they could melt everything.

Just at this moment, a slightly cold voice came from the horizon.

"No one has seized your position as the Child of Destiny."

"It is just... I no longer wish to acknowledge you as my son."

A mass of scorching Fire appeared above Iron Stone City.

Hong Ying looked at that mass of Fire, her eyes revealing a look of surprise: "The Fire of Civilization! Lord Manager has returned!"

Inside Iron Stone City, countless believers also looked up at the sky, revealing expressions of piety.

The daughter of the white snake was somewhat bewildered; she did not understand what had happened.

Only An Qian muttered something to herself: "How could it be, how could he merge with the Heavenly Dao?

Even in the primordial era, only...

Could it be..."

A look of shock appeared in An Qian's eyes.
