"Too slow, too slow, too slow! Is that all you’ve got?!"
Zaniya laughed arrogantly, Li Aozi’s figure weaving through the void overlord’s body, his long sword dragging against it. Simply by running and slicing, he was able to cause considerable damage to the void overlord visually.
"Zaniya, it’s not enough!"
Li Aozi shouted:
"Master of tal and Gold!"
"By command—"
Zaniya flicked his hand, and the blade in Li Aozi’s hand instantly radiated with glaring red lightning. The demigod’s blood hidden within the sword body during its forging was swiftly activated.
"Let steel burn fiercely!"
Bam!
The void overlord slapped its own chest, Li Aozi quickly dodged, leaping out from the splattered flesh and tendrils, landing heavily on the ground, and thrust a sword into the opponent’s heart!
"This is the spot!"
Slash!
The magnetic force of the blade vibrated violently, tearing through flesh and muscles, fetid blood gushed out in torrents, evaporating as it sprayed uncontrollably.
"Did I succeed?"
On the ground, Zhi Xiang released his hand from holding his hair, pressing it against his chest, murmured, then quickly shook his head:
"No, how can that be, that’s the void’s great monarch..."
Beep, beep, beep...
A faint sound ca from the wound in the opponent’s chest.
The next mont, Li Aozi suddenly felt a strange throbbing in his heart. He swiftly pulled out the blade and kicked the monarch’s chest to bounce back.
Buzz, buzz, buzz—crack!
The void overlord’s chest suddenly cracked open, and a large hand with ten fingers extended from it, seized Li Aozi, and hurled him harshly to the ground!
"teor Fall: teor Impact!"
Li Aozi remained calm, swiftly deploying the teor Fall Technique as he was flung out, enveloped in cot energy, constantly adjusting his body, flipping and landing on the earth.
Tap...
The force of the teor instantly coursed downwards from his body, as mont his toes touched the ground, the neutron explosion battered the earth.
Boom!
The destructive force of the impact was perfectly neutralized, Li Aozi, instead, leveraged the force to soar into the air, quickly flying into the sky, looking down at the void overlord.
"Ew, how disgusting—"
Zaniya pointed in disgust at the filth slowly crawling out from within the ’king’s’ body:
"What on earth is that thing? Just looking at it makes dizzy, even I can’t stand it."
Li Aozi remained silent.
The foul body opened its arms, tearing open the ’king’s chest, pulling itself bit by bit out from within, but during this process, its body gradually shrank. When it fully crawled out from the ’king’s body, it was less than seven ters tall.
Tap.
A long, slender white tail whipped the palace floor like a lash, its wings composed of countless squid tentacles spreading outward, innurable tooth-like suckers eagerly inhaling air, until they naturally adapted to the environnt of Starry Abyss, then rhythmically folding back behind its spine.
"...Ah, Layer Abyss, you have confined all power to the surface, thinking you can shield it for a ti, but the fate of the void was predetermined long ago, it’s aningless."
The other murmured, slowly turning around, his slippery, eel-like pale flesh emitted a cringe-inducing, sharp noise as he moved.
"Resistance of any kind is futile, no matter the extent, death is aningless, living is also aningless, even aninglessness is aningless."
He lifted his head, the crown on top like withered twigs and fallen leaves, devoid of color.
A white dragon face mask encased his entire head, yet the sound he emitted was clear, without any muddiness.
No distinctive feature, just an entire expanse of white.
No, rather than calling it pale, it’s more like everything has been stripped away, left like a blank sheet of paper.
"You, and you, all of you outsiders, all actions are pointless, the only outco of resisting the void is being incorporated into the grand narrative..."
His tone wasn’t sorrowful, even if emotions were fervent, there was no joy. Yet, if it were robotic, robots couldn’t emit such despairing, hollow sounds.
Li Aozi glanced around without finding other enemies, then descended freely to stand steadily on the ground, looking at the white sovereign before him.
"Hmph, hmph, this is the true form then."
Zaniya rubbed her hands excitedly:
"I thought it was stronger, but it couldn’t hold up once its weakness was exposed. This tiny body, how can you fight? The recent teor cluster was sowhat impressive, but this frail fra, what can it do? Hahaha... huh?"
She laughed for a while, then suddenly noticed Li Aozi’s gaze remained serious.
"Leoz..."
Slide.
Li Aozi moved his feet, holding the sword, and slowly approached the blank sovereign.
"Long ti no see, Li Mingji."
Li Aozi calmly stated:
"Or should I call you, my so-called—’Daddy’?"
"Oh, turns out it’s Daddy, I thought it was sothing else."
Zaniya crossed her arms, suddenly realized sothing, looked at Li Aozi bewilderedly:
"’Daddy’?"
"Oh?"
Zhi Xiang squinted:
"Now, this is tricky."
"Hehehe..."
The communicator’s other end, N4, showed a gratified smile:
"As expected, just as I thought."
The white sovereign stood calmly before Li Aozi.
"Li Mingji, a villager from a border village of Azure Star Frost Plated Republic—a void entity sneaking into Azure Star via the gate."
He lifted a hand, gently brushing his dragon face mask.
"Presently, has beco a container for the void overlord’s will."
But to Li Aozi, the person in front actually had no blood relation to him.
"Ah... so it was you. If it’s you, I’m not surprised at all. But, you made one mistake."
The white sovereign removed his mask, revealing hollow purple eyes, seven-tenths resemblance in handso features to humanoid Li Aozi. He gazed at Li Aozi, calmly spoke:
"I am not Li Mingji, native."
"Before you stands Starry Abyss’s chosen son—Xides (Seeds)."
"Of course, you can also call by the human na..."
Li Aozi’s azure eyes reflected the opponent’s cold, hateful look.
"—Li Zi. This is the na I chose during my life and tasks while gaming ’Starry Abyss’ as a humble ga strear, a title I vowed to use until dying."
Xides grinned as he looked at Li Aozi, saying:
"Speaking of which, did my mories and system co in handy?"
He softly uttered:
"Thief."
