[The military weapons and armor disintegrate into a thin black mist and dissipate.]

[The body of the ’General of Extreme Evil’ rapidly shrinks. Its two grotesque heads turn into dust, and its four gigantic arms become gravel...]

[Finally, it reverts to its original form, leaning on its sword for support so as not to fall on its knees.]

Lin Xun lets out a deep sigh of relief.

He has managed to reduce the General to its first stage at last.

Even now, the Nine-tailed Fox still carries the remnant divine power of the Evil God, which is ample to deal with the first stage of the General.

"Phew, finally, I see a ray of hope for victory."

[The General leans on his sword and slowly lifts his head.]

[The hatred in his eyes speaks volumes, saying, "Very well, you are the first to humiliate me to this extent."]

[Next, you shall have the privilege to witness my most powerful form!]

[Originally, this form was reserved to combat the legendary ’Crimson Immortal’... you are fortunate to witness it; a life well lived!]

[’The General’ suddenly stands up, his face distorted with insanity, seemingly ready for another transformation...]

???

Lin Xun produces three question marks.

"Again? A third form?"

"This damn game doesn’t give players a break, does it?"

"Even if I get killed out there, or jump from here, I’m not going to choose the hell level anymore!"

"Even if Jesus arrives, I won’t choose the difficulty of hell again, mark my words!"

[Knowing that the ’most critical moment’ has arrived, would you like to invoke the goddess of dance, ’Fated Woman’?]

"Huh?"

Lin Xun is momentarily stunned, but then he understands and is overcome with joy, quickly pressing ’yes’!

[O Apostle, who has overcome all obstacles, you have activated the final event of this Chapter— ’Cherry Blossom Withering Time’!]

[Please note that after completing this final event the Apostle will be directly transported back to the ’Library’, and afterwards the Apostle cannot re-enter this Chapter!]

[Please rate and review at the ’Book of Salvation’ in the ’Library’!]

The sudden and unexpected development causes Lin Xun to furrow his brow.

Shouldn’t the final event be ’The Final Battle with the General’?

What the hell is ’Cherry Blossom Withering Time’?

Also, the text prompt for the final event should appear before the battle with the General. Why has it only just appeared?

"Could it be..."

A possibility crosses Lin Xun’s mind, but the text in the game continues to flicker, completely out of his control, as if watching a cutscene.

[You are possessing the shell of the ’Fire Worshiping King’s Youngest Daughter’!]

[You take out the ’Crimson Command Flag’, look up at the dome of the sky, as if your gaze penetrates layers of clouds to reach the other side of the void...]

[...]

[Suddenly, the world around you descends into silence. All color in your vision fades, leaving only black and white.]

[Above the sky breeds a delicate silhouette of a woman. You can’t discern her face, only predicting that it is that of a young maiden based on her physique.]

[The woman dances in mid-air, her movements graceful and captivating.]

[When she dances, she creates the world’s only vibrant color!]

[’Fated Woman’ turns around gently, waving her sleeves, sprinkling the world with endless divine light...]

[You are affected by an unknown power, restoring your full health, eradicating your fatigue!]

[Not just you, but also the ’Nine-tailed Fox’, ’Valkyrie’, ’Snow Woman’, and many other ’Red Backup Samurai’ and ’Divine War Spirits’ fighting for you are healed by the divine light...]

[The divine light encompasses the entire ’Ancient Tomb of Fire Worship’, even including the most odious creatures of the ’Dark Fasting Army’.]

[Unlike you, before they have the chance to scream, they are all completely vaporized and eradicated in the divine light.]

[The divine light initially illuminates a large area but gradually coalesces into a concentrated dazzling light.]

[This light beam lands directly on ’The General’...]

[The ’General of Extreme Evil’ in front of you suddenly becomes motionless, with a frozen expression.]

[Its body silently melted away, like those extreme evil monsters, not even a scream was heard before it disintegrated completely.]

[Your allied deity ’Fated Woman’ has defeated ’The Great General of Extreme Evil’!]

[You’ve obtained ’World-Roaming Fragment of Spirituality’*1]

[You’ve obtained ’Complete Forging Crystal Block’*1]

[You’ve obtained ’Direct Yan God’s Great Palace Yang Seal’ (Epic+ Level Accessory)]

[You’ve obtained ’Blood of the Evil God’s Child’ (Legendary Grade Item)]

[You’ve obtained ’Tachi: Evil Welcome Eight Scenes’ (Legendary Grade Weapon)]

[You’ve obtained ’Shell of Great Evil Armor’ (Legend+ Level Item)]

[You’ve obtained ’Sakura fall: Hachisaka Keishu jade’ (Legend+ Level Item)]

[Above the dome of the sky, the dancing goddess ceases and falls to the ground, slowly approaching you...]

[Her face is veiled by an indescribable light, you can’t make out her true appearance, trying to look closer cause your eyes pain, forcing you to look away.]

[’Fated Woman’ laughs lightly, being a young servant, a substitute of Yan God, she can’t stay here for long and must keep her words brief.]

[She is the last deity of Sakura fall, a thorn in the side that the Evil God has always wanted to eliminate.]

[Now that she has risked killing the representative of the Evil God, she will soon attract the gaze of the Evil God.]

[Destroying one avatar of the Evil God was an act of desperation to temporarily delay the pace of Evil God corruption.]

[To truly save all creatures, there is only one way—that is to help the Yan God and Dragon God break free from the infection of Malice!]

[If they can unite the supreme powers of the two main deities, they can suppress the Evil God, allowing all things in the world to be reborn...]

[’Fated Woman’ was about to speak when suddenly, she falls into a sheer panic!]

[You can’t see her expression, but from her movements and trembling body, it’s clear that this god is terrified to her core!]

[You feel something in your heart and look up at the sky...]

[Only to see a hideously distorted face dominating the entire dome of the sky, a face filled with pure malice. It’s so monstrous that it obscures the sun and the clouds!]

[That eye, full of extreme malice, is looking at ’Fated Woman’ who stands before you!]

[’Fated Woman’ suddenly lets out a heart-wrenching scream, an observable black aura begins to corrupt her body...]

[’Fated Woman’ is in despair, she screams frantically, she knows, this is a plot devised by the Evil God, a plot of the Evil God!]

[You shouldn’t have killed the stand-in of the Evil God, it’s too late now, it’s all too late...]

[’Fated Woman’ is rapidly falling into Extreme Evil!]

[...]

[With the last deity of Sakura fall descending into extreme evil, the entire nation of the island... No! All living beings of the island, whether they’re humans, monsters, or beasts, start to fall into extreme evil!]

[Their eyes are filled with malice, they let out bizarre, silent laughter, their laughing mouths split their jaws open to reveal their fangs and they begin a brutal bloodbath against the closest living creatures.]

[Even the ’Divine Warrior Spirits’ guarding the entrance to the cemetery and fighting against the ’Dark Fasting Army’ are showing the same eerie smiles.]

[Numerous units of the ’Dark Fasting Army’ and ’Divine Warrior Spirits’, in unison, turn towards you, each of them moving in perfect sync.]

[It’s not just them, even ’Fated Woman’ in front of you looks at you at the same time.]

[You are shocked to find that the halo on her face has disappeared without knowing when, her ordinary-looking face now bears a wicked and sinister smile, sending chills down your spine!]

[You raise your head, realizing that it is the giant freakish face in the sky that is laughing at you, those eyes filled with pure malice are staring at you...]

[You are about to fall into Extreme Evil...]

[The endpoint event ’Cherry Blossom Withering Time’ has concluded!]

[You are being transferred to the Library...]

[...]

[...]

[Transfer successful!]

[A powerful Wandering Soul awakens in the library...]

Lin Xun finally understood, the endpoint of this Chapter was not the execution of the Great General.

The Great General was never the final boss of this level, his powerful abilities far exceeded those of a level-five final boss.

The end of this Chapter was when the last deity of Sakura fall fell into Extreme Evil, when Sakura fall entered the real Doomsday, which was exactly what the endpoint event... ’Cherry Blossom Withering Time’ described!
