Chapter 2392: Conclusion of the Final Battle
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In fact, this battle between universal-level concepts was soundless.
However, to the countless beings in the Realm of Stars, this was truly far too terrifying.
Not long ago, the sky above everyone had suddenly lit up. They could somewhat accept this sudden change. After all, the light appeared harmless, and it was even a little comforting.
In the next moment, however, the sky above them had suddenly transformed into the purest of darkness. Not only that, but all matter and all sensations around them had also vanished without a trace. This feeling… Apart from still having awareness, it was essentially as if they were dead…
This was far too f*cking terrifying!
An Lin successfully petrified everyone in the boundless Realm of Stars.
From lofty God of Creation Stage divine beings all the way down to mere mortals, no one in the Realm of Stars would ever forget this peculiar experience.
Fortunately, this phenomenon of darkness only lasted for a brief moment.
In the next instant, normality returned to the skies.
The skies were still blue skies.
Night was still night. However, this was a night sky that was filled with twinkling stars. It was no longer a harrowing night of darkness and deathly silence…
After experiencing a series of peculiar phenomena, it was as if the Realm of Stars had returned to a state of peace and tranquility.
However, the stellar system in which An Lin and the Heavenly Light Goddess were battling had already become a dark and dull space of scraps. To say nothing of tangible matter and energy, even the countless nomological laws had been smashed into smithereens.
Both light and darkness had fallen dull.
The Heavenly Light Goddess, who had been as colossal as an entire stellar system, had already vanished without a trace.
The God of Creation Stage divine beings in the Realm of Stars all held their breaths in apprehension. They glanced around the Realm of Stars in anxiousness, afraid that they would be struck by another peculiar phenomenon. They knew that even a sneeze from the two paramount beings could cause the entire Realm of Stars to shudder.
Meanwhile, in some broken expanse of space.
Two tiny figures—figures who had once stunned the entire universe—appeared.
The man was dressed in white, and his pitch-black Evil-Slaying Sword had already pierced into the chest of the woman in the black dress.
They were none other than An Lin and the Heavenly Light Goddess.
The eyes of the Heavenly Light Goddess were dull, and her Damaged Sword of the Heavenly Dao had already been snapped in half at some point in time. Moreover, it was vanishing at a rate that was visible to the naked eye.
Her divine aura was also dissipating at a rapid speed. Her Heavenly Light Power coursed through the Evil-Slaying Sword and into An Lin’s body, where it was then engulfed by his Divine Dao of Darkness.
“Heavenly Light Goddess, this battle is my victory,” An Lin said.
The Heavenly Light Goddess raised her beautiful eyes. She chuckled and asked in a soft voice, “Victory? What did you win? Your fate is none other than returning to the Heavenly Dao with me. Can you escape the fate of farewelling that which you like and those whom you love? Can you escape this eternal farewell?”
“But I saved those which I like and those whom I love,” An Lin replied with a shake of his head.
“Did you truly save everyone? Including those whom you hold dearest?” the Heavenly Light Goddess asked as she gazed at An Lin. Upon seeing the unconcealable pain behind his expression of daze, a hint of ridicule spread across her face. “Don’t console yourself with the excuse of sacrificing yourself to save everyone else. Both you and I are extremely intelligent beings. We more so understand the significance of life.
“Upon death, all will cease to exist. That being the case, so what if you saved the entire world? To you personally, this is an eternal farewell. You’ll vanish forever, and you’ll return to darkness forever.
“So, I might have lost.” The Heavenly Light Goddess chuckled as she said this. This was a delighted chuckle, and she continued, “However, you haven’t won either. Rather, you’ll also suffer the same fate as me. You’ll lose everything.”
An Lin only felt vexed and pained for a split-second before quickly regaining his composure.
“Indeed, I truly do feel vexed about this. I’m extremely reluctant to leave, and my heart is filled with pain.”
The Evil-Slaying Sword erupted with bursts of brilliant black light, with halos of darkness rippling into the surroundings and affecting hundreds of stellar systems. The power of his Ultimate Dao was channeled to the extreme, and it furiously engulfed the Heavenly Light Goddess’ Dao power.
The severance and removal of her Dao power transformed into an indescribable pain. As powerful as her willpower was, she still couldn’t help but shudder and even scream.
“However, you and I are different.
“I made my decision, and I succeeded in achieving my aim. However, you failed to do so.
“You betrayed the heavens, yet I haven’t betrayed the world.”
An Lin’s voice was composed, and he calmly observed everything before him.
He gazed at the supremely powerful woman slowly dying before him.
Darkness ultimately overcame light.
This was not to say that the concept of darkness was transcendent above the concept of light.
An Lin understood that this was, in some sense, due to his absorption of three other Supreme Heavenly God Powers. This had allowed his Dao power to become slightly more powerful, and therefore allowed him to achieve ultimate victory.
At this moment, the Heavenly Light Goddess’ Divine Halo had already crumbled into pieces. She was like a severely wounded woman, with blood seeping from the corners of her mouth and her life force rapidly draining away.
Like a flower that had once delighted the entire universe, her fate was ultimately to wither and wilt.
The Heavenly Light Goddess knew that she couldn’t survive anymore. However, her pitch-black eyes instead became especially clear and gentle, and it was as if An Lin were a long-lost friend. Her voice was soft as she asked in curiosity, “An Lin… do you regret your choice?
“In fact, I truly didn’t plan to kill you and the Divine Phoenix Maiden.
“Both of you have already exceeded the bounds of humans, and I merely wanted to exterminate the remainder of the human race, as well as prevent the heaven-crushing plan. Afterward, I would have reconstructed the Heavenly Dao. You could have stayed with the Divine Phoenix Maiden forever…”
The Heavenly Light Goddess’ words pierced through An Lin’s heart like a dagger.
His heart was aching, and he could even envision everyone’s life without him.
Just how aggrieved would Xu Xiaolan be? When everyone else had considered him dead, Xu Xiaolan had still painfully awaited him for one hundred years. That being the case, Xu Xiaolan could naturally do the same when he became the Heavenly Dao. And there was still Little Na, Underling Lan, his father, and the others…
Did he regret this?
This was the Heavenly Light Goddess’ interrogation.
This was also his final question to himself.
Did he regret this?
In fact, An Lin didn’t hesitate too much before answering this question. Even though he felt a heart-wrenching pain, and even though he felt extremely reluctant, he still shook his head and said with a smile, “I don’t regret this.”
Even though she had already lost her Dao power, the Heavenly Light Goddess could still see that An Lin was telling the truth.
She faltered upon hearing this, and she gazed at An Lin in puzzlement.
“I… don’t understand…” the Heavenly Light Goddess said.
Compared to his and Xu Xiaolan’s limitless lifespans, the lifespans of his so-called friends were but the blink of an eye. As for the destruction of the human race… In fact, as God of Creation Stage divine beings, one could even witness the birth and destruction of the human race countless times. Thus, was this truly so important to An Lin?
An Lin reminisced all that he had experienced—Little Na’s innocence, Big Brother Cheng’s sincerity, Su Qianyun’s cuteness, Da Bai’s debauchery, Xiao Hong’s laziness, Sister Liu’s free-spirited nature…
As he recalled this, he couldn’t help but start chuckling.
“You haven’t come across a rainbow.
“So you naturally don’t understand why I cherish it so much.”
As he gazed at the gradually vanishing Heavenly Light Goddess, he said, “As the Heavenly Light Goddess, you should understand this better than me, the Heavenly Darkness God… Why do you only know that a rainbow will disappear? Why don’t you understand the joy and delight that I experience while embracing it?”
The Heavenly Light Goddess’ eyelashes shuddered as she heard this. A glimmer appeared in her eyes, and it was as if she had understood something.
Her body transformed into particles of vanishing light until only her head was left.
She opened her mouth, and she finally spoke what was on her mind. “Life… is truly a beautiful and mesmerizing thing…”
After saying this, she vanished once and for all.
As he gazed at the emptiness before him, An Lin nodded in agreement.
“Indeed…
“Life is truly beautiful and mesmerizing…”
