Sure enough...
Li Aozi’s heart raced wildly, although he had long known this fact and had basically guessed his intricate connection with the other party.
However, when the other party truly confird his identity, he still felt a violent trembling.
"I am your reincarnation."
Li Aozi murmured:
"No matter how I think about it, my previous life, no, my life before my previous life, was actually the deity of the Starry Abyss, and a famous Spiritual Warrior at that."
"Not a previous life." Leoz coldly interrupted his fantasy.
"...What does that an?"
"I have never reincarnated."
Leoz calmly said:
"Gio Zieou’s status led to conclude that I am different from them. I was not shielded, but further fragnted."
"Li Aozi, you are not soone else; you are , and I am you. We have only one identity—Leoz, the ’God of Reality’."
"Our status was inherently shielded and fragnted. You further shielded our fusion process by taking Charlgarnia’s ’Truth Drug’."
"So," Li Aozi pondered for a mont and said, "we are both Leoz, and you and I represent two different personas?"
"Yes."
"Then I can say that so force split ’Leoz’ into two, with one part inheriting your human personality—, ’Li Aozi’."
Li Aozi looked at the other’s back and said:
"And you inherited the divinity and the mories of the deity Leoz."
"Only by rging can we genuinely restore the complete body and divinity of the old Leoz."
"Yes."
Leoz was sparing with words:
"You are not strong enough; my consciousness cannot rge with you. The mandate and mories I hold will destroy our current existence."
"To what extent do we need to achieve to rge?"
"At least... ascend to Godhood."
"...Then at the fastest, it would take level 180, becoming a teor Fall Master. No, given the current situation, at least an advanced Kappa Rank (10) is required."
Li Aozi calculated rapidly in his mind:
"After rging, I can take over the mandate you hold, right?"
"No."
Leoz said:
"The Starry Abyss environnt restricts the mandate. To fully inherit my divinity and mandate, one must reach the Oga Tier."
"It seems the rules beyond and within the Abyss are different."
Li Aozi nodded. This was another crucial piece of information:
"Speaking of which, what kind of Arcane Energy do you hold?"
"Only three sequences."
Leoz’s tone was flat and calm as water.
However, the content sent chills down Li Aozi’s spine.
Given the other’s strength and status, Li Aozi tentatively guessed:
"...Paradox?"
"Yes."
Li Aozi’s forehead was covered in cold sweat:
"Then, the second one, is it the Void?"
"Yes."
He almost choked, his voice trembling:
"Chaos... is Chaos there too?"
"Yes."
Leoz cared little for the shock of the content and coldly said:
"After you took the Truth Drug, although your combat skills improved greatly, it slowed down the process of our persona rging—a form of self-protection, understandable."
"You also know that your decisions negatively impact —
Li Aozi said grumpily:
"You ssed up the relationships between people. My bond with Caral Snail was going so well, and you intervened, ssing things up!"
"No problem." Leoz said, "I helped you save at least seventy-four days."
"It’s not a matter of ti! It’s about cultivating emotions! Emotions! Do you understand? Why do you care so much about efficiency!?"
Li Aozi grumbled.
"Before , countless stronger, smarter Spiritual Warriors erged beyond the Abyss. Every one of them had better innate qualities than ; every one of them was the ’humanized’ hero you speak of."
Leoz calmly said:
"Only I ascended from cannon fodder to a formal deity, acquired a divine na, and ascended to Godhood, acting as the executor."
"I am dull, fragile, and lack humanity, but only I survived."
"You have aning, Li Aozi. You have humanity, and you will go further."
"I support you."
Li Aozi was speechless. He intended to contemplate in silence, but Leoz shattered his thoughts with a sentence:
"Three minutes left before you wake up in the Baizhu Star body."
Li Aozi opened his mouth, but not knowing enough about Leoz, he was unsure where to start.
About ga experience, Leoz certainly had less understanding than he did.
Speaking of the ga—
He had a sudden idea and blurted out:
"Caral Snail also has a deity... what’s going on?"
"Gio Zieou, a capable General under the Destroyer Chief God. He once supported us in the war against the Destroyer."
Leoz said:
"His situation is different from yours. The Descender has Leian’s power—you do not. That is the biggest difference."
"Hmm... I know that, ’Lai Anding dical Protocol.’"
Li Aozi said again:
"Anything else?"
"One more thing. I think it’s the key reason why you are in the Starry Abyss, while Gio Zieou can only log in as a Descender."
Leoz said:
"Gio Zieou was destroyed by one of the Destroyers, ’Gem Dragon King’ Leviathandal."
"Given his status, the Descenders are likely the reincarnations of beyond-the-Abyss deities—I believe they went through the recycling of the Starry Abyss."
"Recycling, reshaping, regeneration—finally returning to the battlefield under Lai Anding’s enhancent to start the counter-assault. This aligns well with the consistent style of the Starry Abyss."
[Are players all deities...]
Li Aozi squinted his eyes.
If it were true as Leoz said, this would bring him even closer to the players.
But this way, "Starry Abyss" wouldn’t just be a ga; his rebirth experience seed extrely suspicious.
Yet Li Aozi didn’t point these out.
He had a vague sense that Leoz seed unaware of his past life’s ga experience.
In Leoz’s perspective, it seed he directly reincarnated into the Layer Abyss.
Leoz did not call them ’players’ but ’Descenders.’
It showed that he was unaware of the ga’s content.
As such, Li Aozi didn’t plan to reveal everything.
[Keep so cards hidden...]
However, just as he was speculating, Leoz suddenly said:
"Our situation is different from others. Those Descenders, though granted the blessing of Lai Anding, looking at Gio Zieou’s status, their psyche hasn’t been split, only shielded from divinity and the mory of being a deity..."
"Hmm? You an Caral Snail and the others won’t be able to rge personas to gain power like ?"
"Their forr selves were recycled, and they likely don’t have any power to inherit."
Li Aozi was surprised:
"But, why is that?"
"Because I did not die."
Leoz said:
"I did not die at the hands of the ’Secret Society’ Gaia’s henchn."
"—What?"
"At the last mont of life, Gaia did not kill , seemingly out of pity because of family persuasion. It used exile, casting into the Starry Abyss—that’s probably why I retained complete mory and consciousness."
Leoz said.
"Gaia... has a family?"
Li Aozi noticed this loophole, and curiously asked:
"From your words, it seems you know a lot about Gaia’s origin. So, what is the origin of the ’Secret Society’?"
He had dealt with the Secret many tis and needed more information.
"Not much information."
Leoz said:
"Gaia has three Speakers, one of whom is the ’Emperor.’ I overheard his conversation with Gaia and discovered the truth."
"I can confirm one thing."
"The origin of the Secret Society is from another universe, different from the six-layered structure projection of the Starry Abyss. Instead, it is another universe untouched by the Destroyers. The process is extrely complex, and there isn’t enough ti to elaborate."
"Simply put."
Leoz said:
"They co from Earth."
