In this empty yet overflowing void, white's appearance caught Lian Kong by surprise. With a gentle tug, white pulled Lian Kong out from the dense, suffocating layers surrounding him. Lian Kong's body, which had been corroded and torn, was instantaneously restored to its original state. "You succeeded in your evolution?" Lian Kong asked in astonishment, looking at his opponent. "Heh, the price was enormous. The universe is simple enough to make one laugh, yet deep enough to drive one to despair. And all things... they are born from that very despair," I responded with a faint smile.
"Are these the true forms of the Original God?" Lian Kong asked, gazing at the light particles all around. "No, merely the scattered remnants of love. Although I could easily wipe them out now, if the Original God is completely destroyed, everything in the universe would vanish with it. I have sealed it away permanently; the mechanism for spontaneous world-cleansing no longer exists. From now on, all universes will bloom forever without withering—consider it the fulfillment of the gods' long-held wish." I then led Lian Kong out of the wondrous Void Realm and returned to Enis and the others.
"Hubby~~!" The two of them joyfully rushed toward me as I suddenly appeared. "Sorry to keep you waiting," I comforted my two wives. "By the way, allow me to fill the void of your regrets," I turned and smiled at Lian Kong. "This... that divine being was indeed you, my friend! I beg of you to save everything I have lost!" Lian Kong immediately bowed to entreat me. "No need for such grand gestures; I'm just happy to help," I smiled and unleashed a brand-new divine art. It was a new energy distinct from The power of the universe—let's call it the Power of the New God for now. An energy vortex emerged from my palm and instantly streaked toward a distant point in time and space. "This is? I can't sense any of Hubby's The power of the universe at all," Suōshā remarked in surprise.
"Ha, I have broken free from all existence of space-time energy. Now, I have become a new starting point—not the Original God, yet having surpassed it," I explained with a smile. I also informed Lian Kong that the Star Lotus Universe had been restored. Lian Kong quickly activated his senses and found that everything familiar had returned. "I cannot thank you enough!" After those words, he immediately teleported toward the Star Lotus Universe, not even having time to say goodbye. "What an impatient fellow. Let's not keep the other gods waiting too long; let's head over," I said with a laugh, leading the three toward the place where the gods were waiting.
"Everyone, we have returned," we appeared instantaneously behind the gods. "It's our friend white!" The deities were amazed by my appearance. "It is all over; there will be no more Original God." I informed the gods of everything that had happened. "Indeed, I can no longer sense any energy from friend white... you have transcended our dimension," God Master Atu remarked, surprised by the changes in my body. "Since you have sealed the Original God, you are now the head of all gods!" Ao Tian God Master interjected. "No thanks, I have no interest in empty titles. From now on, everyone will continue to govern their respective universes. To suppress this unquenchable energy, I am about to enter a long slumber. But before that, let us all be guests and participate in the God Incinerate—no, Lian Kong's interrupted wedding," I said with a wave of my hand.
"Slumber? Lian Kong?" The memories of the gods seemed to gradually return. They remembered the devoured Star Lotus Universe and the once top-ranked God Master Lian Kong. "It's him!" God Master Lengba grew excited. "So you finally know?" God Master Tianyin responded calmly. After the Star Lotus Universe was devoured, the only one who still remembered Lian Kong was God Master Tianyin, who had received him. "Let's go; don't miss the wonderful moment," I led the gods toward Planet Moyi in the Star Lotus Universe.
On Planet Moyi, inside the government hall: "What on earth is happening?" The priests were shocked to find the darkness had vanished without a trace. The entire venue—no, the entire world—had returned to normal. "I have returned," Lian Kong teleported back to Xinya's side. "Why are you back? Leave quickly!" Xinya pushed him anxiously. With red-rimmed eyes, Lian Kong pulled her into his arms. "I have been away from you for three billion years. I am not going anywhere now!" Seeing this, the two wept in each other's arms. "God Master, this is...?" "A benefactor has saved everyone. Look, they have already arrived," Lian Kong smiled toward the entrance, seeing the gods, led by white, appearing at the venue.
