Chapter 198 - A Distant Promise ---

Enis and the other two followed the aura to white's location, only to see him sitting cross-legged in the air, eyes closed in meditation, as if in a state of absolute transcendence.

"Husband?" Enis tried to call out softly, but white remained as still as water and did not respond. "white might be trying to achieve a breakthrough," Suōshā remarked, sensing a flicker of spiritual connection. "A breakthrough? Into what?" Enis asked in confusion. "white is performing mental cultivation to surpass the Original God. Sister, let us not disturb him," Suōshā explained the reason.

"Surpassing the Original God? I'm afraid that won't be easy," Zisen God Master said skeptically. Suddenly, all the power of the universe on white's body vanished completely, and not even a trace could be sensed. "white's energy has all disappeared," Suōshā said with a hint of worry. "Suōshā, do you think there's anything we can do to help—" Enis grew anxious upon hearing this. "We must have faith in white. This should be an abnormal phenomenon preceding a metamorphosis," Suōshā reassured her.

"The aura of God Incinerate seems to have vanished as well, yet the other God Masters can still be sensed. I wonder what has happened; let me observe from afar," Zisen God Master said, then activated his Divine Sight to gaze into the distance. He saw the gods gathered around an unknown tunnel of light. "I am Zisen, may I ask what just happened?" Zisen God Master spoke to the other God Masters via telepathy. "........" "I see. I didn't expect the situation to turn out like this. Thank you all." Zisen God Master ended the conversation, turned to Enis and Suōshā, and said, "Sisters, God Incinerate has set off alone to find the Original God." Suōshā looked puzzled for a moment, then her face filled with helplessness. "It seems he has decided to sacrifice himself to suppress the Original God. I fear the consequences will not be as desired."

"If white can successfully break through, the two of them joining forces might still yield a chance of victory," Suōshā added. "We are powerless now and can only hope for white's metamorphosis and strengthening," Enis replied, shaking her head.

Within white's mental realm: "The Original God, ancestor of all things... to defeat him requires a new power. Relying on the power of the universe to suppress the Original God is a mere delusion. I must realize a new power, a power that does not belong to this world!" Having shed all of his the power of the universe, I returned to my original state, immersed in this ethereal sea of mind like an ordinary person, comprehending and awakening hundreds of millions of times every second.

On the other side, Lian Kong traversed the endless tunnel. He did not know how much further he had to fly before he could meet the Original God. With a solemn expression and without a word, he flew toward the other end of the tunnel at full speed. During the journey through this long tunnel, beautiful memories of the past began to surface in his mind. A slight smile touched his lips as he returned to the ancient times in his distant thoughts—to the Star Lotus Universe before it was devoured. The one who governed that universe was the current Lian Kong.

"Lord God Master, today's affairs can be handled by me, your subordinate. There is no need for you to come in person," a Divine Official greeted Lian Kong as he saw him arrive. "It is no matter. I have some free time, so I came to oversee the progress," he replied with a smile. Planet Z99A-Moyi was one of the five ascension planets in the Star Lotus Universe. Because the mortals below were obsessed with greed and money, no human had ascended for hundreds of years. Lian Kong was executing a Divine Order of Purgation on this planet, while those mortals who still possessed kindness would be guided to other planets for further refinement.

"What is the matter with that girl?" Lian Kong pointed to the woman in the Divine Screen who was being escorted by mortal police. "Reporting to the God Master, this woman's soul is pure and she is one of the targets for guidance. However, she just committed a theft, so we are keeping her under observation for now," the official replied. After hearing the explanation, Lian Kong stared at the girl on the screen. "Since I am bored anyway, I shall test her myself," he said, then vanished with a smile.

"Behave yourself! I've already clocked off, so stop causing trouble!" a police officer grumbled as he escorted the girl toward the detention center. "Let go of me! I only took two bags of delivery food! Those wicked officials embezzle far more than I ever could!" the girl shouted and struggled. Unfortunately, her hands were already handcuffed. Just as she was about to be pushed into the transport vehicle, an explosion occurred nearby. "What was that?!" The officer quickly rushed toward the explosion, leaving the girl behind. While the girl was dazed, a mysterious hand grabbed her. "Go!" The girl turned her head and saw a handsome, mysterious man pulling her toward a small alley. "Who are you?" the girl asked while running.

"Haha, let's get out of here first." After running a safe distance, they finally stopped. The man waved his hand lightly, and the electronic handcuffs on the girl's wrists fell to the ground. "How did you do that?!" "Just a small trick. Why were you caught?" the man asked tentatively. "That's none of your business. Thanks for helping me escape just now. Let's part ways here!" The girl pulled her hand away warily and ran off.
