~7 min read 1,328 words

It wasn't until a while later that Fulade finally recovered his senses from the dizziness.

At that moment, the future spider goddess Luo Si, with a haughty expression, sat atop a towering Altar, shaking her two pale, delicate feet.

Transparent crystal shoes clack clack on her bright red toes, emitting a faint crisp sound.

A chicken leg, source unknown, was in her hand, and she was munching it with a satisfied "nom nom" expression.

Fulade's eyes widened—where did that chicken leg come from? No, where did that Altar come from! "Hey, here you go," Luo Si, assuming Fulade was also craving, conjured another leg without hesitation and handed it to him.

They extended a hand, took the chicken leg from Luo Si, and asked in disbelief, "This is my spiritual sea of consciousness; where did you get the chicken leg."

Luo Si mumbled while chewing the leg, "It's just in this castle, don't worry, eat slowly; no one will know you stole it."

"That's not what I'm concerned about," Fulade thought, only feeling a crow swoop over his head.

He took a hard bite of the chicken leg—hmm, quite tasty.

"You've always been inside the Light Sphere, right? And what is this Altar?" Fulade asked, voicing his confusion.

"That's correct. Since my birth, I've been sealed within this Light Sphere, and precisely because of that I escaped the great calamity of millennia ago."

As she spoke, a hint of loneliness flickered in Luo Si's eyes, and the chicken leg in her hand suddenly seemed unappetizing.

"As for the altar," Luo Si gave Fulade a peculiar glance, suppressing a smile at the corner of her mouth, and said:

"Take a close look; is this truly an Altar?"

Could it be otherwise?

With a hint of doubt, Fulade examined it closely, but the longer they stared, the wider Fulade's mouth seemed to grow.

"This, this… it's actually a book!" Fulade exclaimed, shocked.

"That's… way too big."

Fulade gazed at the towering, several‑meter‑tall black‑covered volume before them, exuding a dense aura of darkness, their tone full of astonishment and disbelief.

Luo Si descended from the book and told Fulade, "This is no ordinary book; it's a fragmentary edition of the world‑class treasure, the Dark Book~."

"Fragmentary edition?" Fulade asked, puzzled.

"Ah, this was the world‑class treasure of the Fear Demon, but it was forcibly shattered by the Lord of Radiance with divine power, causing massive loss of laws."

"Nevertheless, even so, the Dark Book remains a rare treasure."

Even during the peak of the Dark World thousands of years ago, when it ruled over hundreds of world civilizations and hundreds of world planes, there were only a handful—just two or three—such items.

This is something only a mid‑large plane, with its profound foundation, could give birth to!

"You mean ruling over hundreds of worlds," Fulade said, struggling to find words.

Luo Si replied calmly, "Surprised? This is the strength of a mid‑sized peak civilization."

"If the Light God race hadn't invaded us, in a few tens of thousands of years we could have ascended to a large plane and become a rare large‑scale world civilization within the Star Realm."

"Know that in the surrounding Star Realm, the infamous Demon Realm and Abyss, which govern thousands of planes, are merely large civilizations."

Confronted with this sudden flood of information, Fulade felt utterly unable to digest it all at once.

Although aware that this world's history had once been glorious, they never imagined it could be this absurd.

Yet Luo Si's next sentence left Fulade in a daze.

"I think you should understand what the Star Realm means; in your terms, it's the universe, a plane is a planet—just different names."

Fulade stared at Luo Si with a grave expression, wondering what that meant—did she know my origin!?

Luo Si saw Fulade's expression and understood his thoughts. Unperturbed, she said, "No need to doubt; I know you're not from this world. As for where you come from, it doesn't matter to me."

"Rebirth, though rare, does exist, provided the true spirit imprint in the soul hasn't faded. In the boundless Star Realm, tens of thousands of years ago, there was a large world civilization called the Underworld, which possessed a powerful treasure named the Gate of the Underworld."

She glanced at Fulade before continuing, "It is said that by passing through the Gate of the Underworld, aided by the Soul River, Blood River, and Bone River, one has a great chance of rebirth."

Of course, most are beings whose souls remain relatively intact; those with shattered souls or only a trace of true spirit depend on luck.

Hearing Luo Si's words, Fulade's breathing quickened.

The marvels of this world far exceeded Fulade's imagination.

At once, Fulade, whose mind had been drifting since gaining great power, found a new purpose.

He—must go see the true splendor of this world!

Luo Si's deep gaze met the burning heat in Fulade's eyes, and she smiled faintly.

"Currently, our world, shattered by the calamity thousands of years ago, has fallen to the level of a Micro Plane,"

"and for us to achieve sufficient growth, we must lead this world to rise again."

"Then what should I do?" Fulade couldn't help asking.

Luo Si, her gaze profound, told Fulade, "The quickest way is war—conquer other plane worlds!"

"By exploiting resources from other worlds to nourish our own growth, our advancement simultaneously accelerates this world's recovery."

"Since the great calamity, the plane will of the Dark World has been severely damaged, falling into slumber, which explains this world's low energy."

Fulade listened, speechless for a long while, sinking into silence.

Conquer the world! He had never imagined it; suddenly a heavy pressure surged.

Along with it came a scorching excitement from deep within, a restless urge to act.

In truth, Luo Si hadn't mentioned that her physical body was sealed within the Dark Book, because the current fragility of the Dark World cannot bear her descent.

Only after the Dark World ascends from a Micro World to a small plane can she emerge from the Dark Book without jeopardizing world order.

Moreover, to prevent Luo Si, upon awakening, from disregarding the Dark World's fate, the Fear Demon Di Ya Bo Luo made a pact with her at her birth.

Only when the Dark World returns to the right track will the Dark Book lift the seal on her physical form.

In fact, this is the real reason Luo Si incited Fulade to start a war.

After a while, Fulade's mind finally cooled, and they thought of an important question.

"But how do we invade other worlds? We don't even know where their shadows lie," Fulade asked, puzzled, looking at Spider Queen Luo Si.

Spider Queen Luo Si covered her mouth with a smile, turned back toward the Dark Book, and said, "Through the Dark Book, we can forge dark gates linking to other worlds."

Of course, there's a premise: we must learn the plane coordinates of that world to establish a link, and right now there happens to be a suitable Micro Plane for invasion.

Spider Queen Luo Si, eyes blazing and a smile on her face, looked at Fulade and laughed.

Fulade looked at Luo Si with a puzzled expression, and Luo Si stepped in front of Fulade, rose onto tiptoe, patted his shoulder, and said, somewhat proudly:

"Do you still remember the right hand that once vanished?"

Fulade nodded, looked at Luo Si, and asked puzzledly, "Of course—what does that have to do with anything?"

"Of course it matters! The hand that disappeared is now inside a Micro World; through that hand we can obtain the spatial coordinates of that Micro World!"

Hearing this, Fulade's complexion turned oddly, and he looked toward Spider Queen Luo Si.

Facing Fulade's strange gaze, Spider Queen Luo Si blinked innocently and said:

"Ah, sorry—at that time I accidentally left a trace of my aura on that hand, so..."
