"Benevolent Abundance Aeon - Yaoshi, I pray to you…"
A lone figure sat on a mound of earth, muttering incantations, continuously offering devout prayers.
Around him, sand and dust swirled, and the cracked earth spread like a shattered spiderweb.
If one were to look up, they would find that the familiar starry sky now presented a strange and icy hue.
On the inky black firmament, the stars were sparse and dim, as if eroded by time, having lost their luster.
Clusters of nebulae, like frozen storms, took on bizarre shapes.
They emitted a faint and eerie light, adding a touch of mystery and dread to this starry sky.
As Dante prayed, a bitter feeling welled up in his heart.
His first transmigration, and he hadn't expected to arrive directly on such a desolate planet.
As far as the eye could see, there was no sign of life.
Two days, two whole days!
Although he didn't know how many hours two days here translated to in his previous life, without water or food, he was already parched and starving.
If he wasn't rescued soon, he feared it wouldn't be long before he would die of thirst and starvation here.
Looking at the endless desolation around him, he was grateful that his physique was special when he transmigrated.
Otherwise, he would have suffocated before he could starve to death.
While praying, he once again focused his attention on the group chat in his mind, trying to find a way to resolve this crisis.
Group Owner: Dante
Current World: Honkai: Star Rail
Group Members: None
Group Files: None
…
A group, like an empty shell, seemed utterly useless.
But to say it was useless wasn't entirely accurate.
According to the group's introduction, this group could pull Aeons into it, and once the group level increased and points were sufficient, it could even locate other cosmic worlds.
But to say it was useful, the current group had no points, no members, and he had to invite Aeons himself to join.
Isn't this utter nonsense?
At that moment, Dante's vision went black. Even with his current special physique, could Aeons be met just because he wanted to?
Even if he met them, how would he invite them to join the group?
In this desperate situation, Dante suddenly remembered The Abundance Aeon - Yaoshi, known for Its compassion in the Star Rail universe.
Legend had it that Yaoshi cared for all beings and could not bear to see life perish, so It might extend a helping hand to him, a stranger.
Thus, Dante poured all his hope into this prayer, attempting to attract Yaoshi's attention.
He had been praying for a full day and night, almost making Dante doubt his sanity.
He wondered if the game he played was different from reality, otherwise why hadn't Yaoshi appeared yet?
Time ticked by, minute by minute.
Just as he began to feel a sense of despair, a soft ray of light suddenly shone down from the sky.
This light carried warmth and vitality, completely out of place in this desolate world.
Dante's heart swelled with joy, so excited he almost wept, knowing that his prayers had been answered.
Within the light, the phantom of The Abundance Aeon - Yaoshi faintly appeared.
With six arms and two feet, holding stalks of wheat representing life, and thorns representing decay entwined around Its legs, Its appearance possessed a strange beauty.
Yaoshi's face was compassionate, and Its eyes conveyed care and pity for life.
Dante felt a powerful surge of vitality enter his body, dispelling hunger, cold, and weakness.
Is this The Abundance's blessing?
Dante's heart burned with fervor as he looked at Yaoshi's figure, knowing this was his only chance.
He quickly and respectfully said, "Compassionate King of Medicine, I come from beyond the universe, and I have accidentally drifted here.
I ask that you grant me a moment, allowing me to extend an invitation to you.
I possess an extremely special ability that can gather all the Aeons of this universe.
Not only can it enhance communication and collaboration between Aeons, but in the future, it can even locate other cosmic planes, spreading The Abundance's Path across endless worlds and star seas.
If you are willing to join, it will not only be a practice of The Abundance's Path but also a rescue for countless intelligent beings who will face suffering in the future."
Yaoshi listened quietly to Dante's words.
After a long while, It slowly spoke, Its voice like a spring breeze, gentle yet full of power.
"May all sentient beings obtain what they seek."
[Ding~
Group Notification — The Abundance Aeon - Yaoshi has joined the group chat.
Current Group Members — Two.]
It worked!
Dante's body trembled slightly with excitement; the group was finally no longer just an empty shell!
The moment Yaoshi joined the group, It had already deciphered all the functions within it.
"Endless possibilities, infinite changes…"
Its gaze turned to Dante.
A ray of light, imbued with endless vitality, like an arrow of hope spanning dimensions, surged into Dante's body.
In an instant, Dante felt a vast and gentle power surging within him.
The immense power crashed and surged through his body, attempting to break through all constraints.
He felt his bones emit a "crack, crack" sound, as if being reshaped by an invisible, immense force.
Muscle fibers continuously stretched and contracted, each pulsation accompanied by the injection of powerful energy.
Dante's consciousness seemed to enter a fantastical world.
The vast Abundance energy transformed the originally withered mountains into emerald forests, and the dark red starlight was replaced by golden dawn.
Countless seeds of life broke through the barren earth, rapidly growing into towering trees.
Rivers burst forth from cracks in the ground, and swimming silver fish carried glowing seeds, scattering vitality towards the horizon.
The gloom in the sky dissipated, and sunlight streamed down, warming all things in the world.
Group Owner: Dante (The Abundance's Path Navigator)
Current World: Honkai: Star Rail
Group Members: The Abundance Aeon - Yaoshi
Group Files: None
…
Dante was stunned.
He thought Yaoshi might make him Its Emissary, but he hadn't expected Yaoshi's generosity to exceed his imagination.
Aeons' minds were indeed beyond what mortals could comprehend.
After seeing the infinite possibilities and changes of The Abundance's Path, the selfless, healing, and altruistic Yaoshi directly opened the entirety of The Abundance's Path to him.
Now, he could be said to be the undisputed spokesperson for The Abundance Aeon.
And with all of The Abundance Aeon - Yaoshi's permissions, he could even log into The Abundance Aeon's main account.
What if his understanding of the Path was insufficient? The Aeon, the account owner, would resolve it for him.
He looked at Yaoshi's gradually fading compassionate figure, and the benevolent whispers seemed to still echo in his ears.
[I see countless lives weeping in the abyss across myriad dimensions.]
[All beings suffer, and I am the antidote, blessing across star seas, transcending dimensions, healing every soul struggling on the brink of life and death.]
[When the last star extinguishes, remember — the suffering of all beings shall eventually transform into an eternal spring beneath The Abundance's wings.]
