The door of the train in front of them opened, and He Ao looked at Li Cheng, "That guy’s main power hasn’t arrived, we can still leave now."
"Without the Velora, at our mortal speed, we can’t outrun him, and we can’t delay for long," Li Cheng slightly shook his head upon hearing this, then he looked at ’Hao Yi’ and smiled,
"We all know what the best plan is right now. At this mont, only true Angel-tier power can fight that guy and buy more ti for He Ao."
His gaze swept across the sky outside, over the raindrops falling down, "I know, you and He Ao have also done a lot for , otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to disassemble Andaville’s Spear so smoothly, you all want to increase my survival chances.
"But when it ca to making a choice, I was already prepared. Now it’s ti for to face my own fate."
He smiled slightly, raising the Secret Silver Bottle in his hand.
"You’ve made your decision?" He Ao looked at him silently, "Initially, directly consuming the Talent Sequences was already extrely dangerous, your ritual isn’t even completed, and your body still harbors the accumulated madness from the past. Even if you manage to temporarily reach that level by consuming this, it’s essentially a death wish."
"If everyone only wants to hide behind heroes to survive, leaving all dangers and hardships on the heroes’ shoulders, then there’s no need for them to be protected,"
Li Cheng looked back at the young man behind him, clutching the silver bottle in his hand, and slowly smiled, "We can’t let that child bear everything, I have to do sothing too, and besides, I haven’t completed a ritual before, this ti I’ve managed part of it, maybe fate will still favor ."
He paused for a mont, his voice slightly lower, "If... please tell He Ao for : he’s outstanding, the road ahead is still long, I believe he will reach places we’ve never been, it’s just that I may not see it."
He Ao listened silently to his words, after a brief pause, he nodded lightly, "Alright."
The distant Starlight was already getting closer and closer.
Li Cheng looked at this Starlight and, taking a step forward, walked out of the train door. The storm and thunder briefly lifted his body; here, it was still his ho ground.
He turned to look at ’Hao Yi’, taking a deep breath, "I still cannot trust the Divine Being behind you, but,"
He paused slightly and softly said, "Thank you."
He Ao, gripping the door fra, watched the man standing in the storm with a calm face, concealing any emotions.
The engulfing Starlight already reached above their heads.
Li Cheng looked at ’Hao Yi’ and gave a smile.
He raised the small bottle high, and the thunder inside rushed out of the bottle’s mouth like a swarm, pouring into his mouth.
Bam—
The Secret Silver Bottle shattered trendously in his hand.
And behind him, the firmant above, the dazzling Starlight descended without pause, piercing toward the figure in the sky.
The engulfing light and shadows enveloped Li Cheng’s body, almost tearing apart his entire physique in an instant, he lifted his head, looking at the Starlight in the sky.
Boom—
Accompanied by a loud roar, the brilliant light of thunder shot out from below upwards, directly charging toward the Starlight in the sky.
In the instant when the thunder and Starlight collided, twisted ripples spread outward along the bottom layer of the world.
The undulating mountains were leveled, the smooth ground was torn with bottomless cracks, the piano strings fixing the Velora were also thoroughly shredded at the mont of impact.
The ancient train regained ’freedom’ in that instant, and the young man inside the train looked up, gazing at the light and shadows in the sky.
And in the vast sky above, streaks of Starlight from all directions converged into this radiant place.
Flashing thunder surged like waves between the clouds, gathering on the figure enveloped in thunder’s radiance below.

Click—click—click—
In the silent space, the tightly clenched tal disc began to turn counterclockwise little by little.
In the darkness, a faint sound echoed, as if the latch stuck in the tal door was slowly retracted.
This disc was extrely heavy, even with He Ao’s current physical fitness, he needed to exert force to turn it.
But aside from this terrifying weight, the disc no longer had any ’locking’ structure.
No ’key’ was needed, nor any key-equivalent commands or runes; simply turning this disc seed to unlock this tal door.
Perhaps, there once was, but not anymore.
The threads of the silent disc seed entirely rusted and stuck, and there seed to be a thin spring plate connected behind it; each turn t with a slow and sticky resistance, seemingly if He Ao let go, the entire disc would imdiately rebound to its original position.
He Ao silently held the edge of this disc, quickly turning it until the entire disc was almost spun into an illusion.
Until the entire disc was completely stuck, unable to turn any further.
Click—
With the last sound of the latch retracting, countless luminous runes seed to surface in the void.
Most of these runes were already shattered and broken, unable to form mystical effects, leaving only a dim glow, signifying that perhaps a powerful mystical array once existed here.
He Ao’s gaze swept over these runes, gripping the disc, and tried pushing inwards.
The resistance on the tal door was still significant, but he no longer felt the blockage that seed to have it completely jamd.
It was a slow, sluggish resistance, similar but stronger than when turning the disc, exceeding the limits of an ordinary B-level.
Click—
With a faint sound, the heavy tal door was slowly pushed back a bit.
A narrow slit appeared between the door and the wall, with a faint purple glow emanating from the crevice.
An irresistible attraction spread from He Ao’s heart in that instant, as if long-lost brothers finally t, emotions from the heart and soul urged He Ao to ’quicker’, ’just a little faster’.
Alongside this allure was a twisted and ’fervent’ pollution, imploring him to worship, prostrate, and accept the great dominion.
He Ao silently watched this radiance, his feet planted firmly on the ground, body leaning forward, exerting further effort.
He seed oblivious to the intangible attraction, only silently pushing this heavy tal door, bit by bit.
Until that gap grew larger and larger, forming a ’channel’ enough for one person to pass.
And at this mont, He Ao finally made out the ’partial’ visage of the thing behind the door.
The first thing to catch his eye was a slender rod-like object, purplish and jade-like, as if suspended in the sky.
When He Ao had previously opened the channel into the Relic of the Bygone Days, he had already seen this jade rod.
Now, he saw more of the ’structure’.
This long staff wasn’t just a single piece, but rather multiple sticks inserted into a jade spindle, forming a shape reminiscent of a wheel.
The outer edge of this ’wheel’ wasn’t so circular object but rather blurred, illusory lines, connecting the ’tips’ of those staves together to form a hazy ’wheel’.
Upon gazing at those lines, He Ao felt his thoughts montarily detach, seeing individual joys and sorrows, witnessing war, flas, and despair.
These were fates once tied to this ’wheel’.
Behind this massive jade ’spinning wheel’ was a slender object, akin to a spindle.
This spindle wasn’t directly connected to the wheel, but by equally illusory lines winding between the spindle and wheel, forming an invisible transmission chanism.
Above the spindle were even more obscure ’lines’, winding at one end on the spindle and drawn into the void at the other end, seemingly pulling out incomplete threads from the void.
Sealed Item 005: Fate Spinning Wheel
He Ao silently gazed at the huge entity before him; the purple jade spinning wheel also ’saw’ him, gently swaying the ’wheel’ as if extending a ’welco’.
However, the space the giant wheel could turn was limited, as moving forward slightly would et the tal door He Ao was pushing open.
This heavy door, like a hard tal ’clasp’, hindered the jade wheel’s movent and the spinning wheel’s rotation.
Of course, a re alloy couldn’t resist the power of an angel tier.
This tal door was likely endowed with so ’mystical significance’, part of the entire sealing system.
He Ao quietly observed all this, squeezing through the door gap he pushed open, stepping into the area.
Click—
With ancient machinery sound, the heavy tal door slowly closed again, the retracted latch springing back, locking the door.
He Ao looked up, gazing at the giant ’spinning wheel’ before him.
This spinning wheel stood tens of ters high, with each strand of illusionary threads wrapped around it approximately as thick as the embrace of two people.
These threads themselves seed to be composed of extrely fine lines ’spun’ together to form them.
Countless ’fates’ were reflected in He Ao’s eyes at that mont, like bodies stacking together, converging into a surging tide.
Their joys and sorrows, their separations and reunions, innurable emotions, countless screams, rushed into He Ao’s mind, pouring into his soul.
And He Ao stood amidst the surging ’wave’.
His consciousness expanded, soul torn apart, fine blood spreading along his body, like a lone boat in a fierce storm, rising and falling in the tumult.
Yet, He Ao seed oblivious to all of this, raising his head, quickly surveying the giant space sealing 005.
The space was roughly hemispherical, with no openings except for the tal door.
The whole space was enveloped in a purple glow, but under that dazzling purple brilliance, dense runes could be seen scattered across the ground, walls, and firmant.
These runes continued to shine, faintly glowing even under the glaring purple light.
The nesting thod of these runes was exceptionally ingenious; He Ao couldn’t fully comprehend the array at once, though he sowhat grasped the array’s ’function’.
These arrays corresponded to three directions, excluding defensive designs; their main ’effect’ seed straightforward—to transmit certain powers into this space.
As ’seal’ arrays, these arrays appeared sowhat overly simplistic.
In that instant, orange-gray light surfaced within He Ao’s eyes, forming overlapping rings.
He glanced around, three hazy glows seed to faintly appear in his field of view.
Three distinct glows yet intermingled, evenly distributed across three directions.
Northern side facing him was shrouded in gray light, southwestern in dark blue glow, southeastern in white light.
A top-down terrain map unfolded in He Ao’s mind.
North, the 196 Research Institute, where 005 was once researched, where Li Cheng found a piece of Eye of the World Fragnt, the gray glow matching the Eye of the World’s power.
Southwest, the 195 Research Institute, ho to Andaville’s Spear and Egg of Analysis, the dark blue glow likely emanating from the Egg of Analysis.
Southeast, the 194 Research Institute, housing a suspected angel-tier tallic giant tree.
The three institutes constituted a perfect triangle, enveloping the High Tower.
At that mont, He Ao understood that the real sealing array for 005 wasn’t the space’s array, but the three major institutes.
The three high-tier items within the institutes simultaneously constructed a sealing array, confining 005.
He Ao silently gazed upon the huge purple jade spinning wheel, requiring at least three angel-tier items’ suppression; its strength might be even more formidable than anticipated by He Ao.
When the entire array was at its peak, 005 shouldn’t have been able to leak any power.
However, the Eye of the World sohow shattered, leaving only a small fragnt in the 196 Research Institute.
The Egg of Analysis stored at the 195 Research Institute bore no issues, but the array was destroyed long ago, the seal likely damaged.
Only the tallic giant tree at the 194 Research Institute remained largely intact.
The seal array suffered damage, empowering 005’s influence over Daybreak’s Ruonati, AI 8753, and Rong Guang Society’s Ruoke En, attempting to unseal it.
Yet with such a compromised seal, 005 still lacks the ans to shatter it?
Has it weakened during the sealing process?
Wait!
The fierce consciousness storm hit, He Ao suddenly realized sothing, raising his head again to look at the giant purple spinning wheel.
He Ao pondered with lightning speed, lasting only a brief mont, within which brilliant light radiated from the spinning wheel, mingling into the consciousness storm converging toward his body.
At that instant, a large eye in an inverted triangle materialized behind He Ao’s head.
Deconstruction!
The eye lifted, gazing at the heavenly spinning wheel, piercing radiance akin to sword light cutting through the firmant and land, cleaving through the surging consciousness storm and purple glow, falling upon the spinning wheel itself.
Ding—
With a soft sound, the crystalline spinning wheel trembled slightly, revealing intricate glows beneath the torn gorgeous attire.
These intersecting glows pervaded the entire spinning wheel, akin to dense cracks.
This wasn’t just a sealing array.
