"It's a success!"

Nan Li's excited voice echoed in Wu Xiaode's mind.

"You mean I can get the second card now?" Wu Xiaode immediately asked.

"Hold on, I'll summon Liu Ping, and God needs to be prepared too—"

"Little Wu, stay calm, and don't let the will of this world notice anything amiss."

"...What's going on?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"As you can see, the Pilgrimage is meant for the Evil Demons, helping them surpass all their enemies in one go. Even within their own tribe, they'd be invincible."

"We've been trying our best to alter the Pilgrimage—"

"But we managed to do only one thing."

"Which is to have me control the first card."

"With this, the Evil Demons can't find me, thus unable to start the real Pilgrimage."

"—But that's all we can do."

Nan Li spoke with utmost seriousness:

"Now, for the second card, if Song Qingsi can grasp it, then two cards will stand on the side of all living beings."

"To do this, we must completely remove the World Will."

"Because it naturally belongs to the Evil Demon camp, it will definitely betray us at some point in the future."

Wu Xiaode listened quietly, then silently asked in his heart:

"What do I need to do?"

"Act as if you don't know anything. When Song Qingsi's world-controlling ceremony begins, at some point, you'll need to complete another ceremony," Nan Li replied.

Suddenly, Wu Xiaode felt something added to him.

He turned to look.

He saw the old sprite in a night suit sneakily putting something into his storage bag.

When Wu Xiaode looked at it, it gestured for him to keep silent.

The Evil Spirit Book quietly opened.

Lines of small bronze words appeared on the pages:

"Important reminders from Heaven are being issued."

"Please prepare the following items:"

"Golden sand, white flag (the old sprite has already put it in your storage bag), Butterfly Soul blade, something delicious."

"When Song Qingsi begins to control the world, you must immediately take out these four things and place them at her east, west, south, and north."

"Then adapt to the situation."

"Attention!"

"There is only one chance, do not be careless!"

"This is the only hope!"

Wu Xiaode felt a heaviness in his heart.

God rarely spoke to him in such a solemn tone.

It seems this matter is indeed very important.

He watched silently as Song Qingsi flew over.

"Looks like we've won,"

Song Qingsi said with a smile, standing on the back of the Evil Flood Dragon.

"Yes, this world is about to be truly in your hands, and then, people will be free," Wu Xiaode replied.

He looked at the soldier.

The soldier's muffled voice said, "The ceremony is about to begin."

Before the words were completed.

All arenas sank into the ground, and other soldiers disintegrated into Life Runes, scattering into the ground.

The entire city slowly disappeared.

Replacing it was a tall altar.

The soldier stood on the altar and said:

"The world-controlling ceremony is about to begin, unrelated personnel please leave."

Wu Xiaode wasn't moved at all, instead, he took Song Qingsi's hand and flew up to the altar with her.

"You're not leaving?" Song Qingsi asked.

"I'm not at ease, I need to watch over you," Wu Xiaode said.

The soldier coldly said, "There will be no problem with the ceremony."

"I can't be sure if what you're saying is true, I have to watch," Wu Xiaode insisted.

The soldier, helpless, shouted in a deep voice:

"Life World, begin bonding!"

It slowly sank into the ground as well, blending into the endless Life Runes.

On the altar.

All the runes lit up.

In the void.

A giant Life Chart Disk quietly appeared above Song Qingsi's head, slowly rotating.

Every turn it made, countless runes transformed into glowing threads, flying towards Song Qingsi.

Song Qingsi stood in the center of the altar, carefully feeling the threads of Power of Destiny flowing into her body, and nodded to Wu Xiaode:

"It should be right, I feel I'm gaining the Power of Destiny."

Wu Xiaode still showed a look of concern, vigilantly watching around, and said:

"Don't be careless."

"We must wait until the ceremony is completely finished and your safety is confirmed, only then can we rest assured."

This was said with heartfelt concern.

Song Qingsi smiled at him sweetly, then slightly closed her eyes and began feeling the Power of Destiny.

In the sky.

The giant Life Chart Disk spun faster and faster.

Clearly, the entire ceremony was approaching the crucial moment step by step.

Suddenly—

The old sprite shrieked in Wu Xiaode's ear:

"Take action, Little Wu!"

Wu Xiaode's hands moved like lightning, flashing several times, and he set out a pile of golden sand, a white flag, the Butterfly Soul blade, and a piece of smoked meat from the snowy plains.

They occupied the four corners of east, west, south, and north respectively.

That pile of golden sand first flew up, transforming into endless holy light.

The solemn voice of God then resounded:

"The Lord said, this land is what I have given to you."

Holy light instantly spread, reaching in all directions, enveloping the entire world.

The white flag planted in the west moved slightly.

A somber middle-aged man emerged from behind the banner, reaching out to gently shake the white flag.

The white flag suddenly transformed into a banner familiar to Wu Xiaode—

The Banner of Flowing Sand!

Needless to say, that middle-aged man was precisely the Master of Time, Gu Xinghai!

You could hear him softly recite:

"The ebb and flow of time is like life and death, all is an illusion, yet as your mind begins to turn, it is born alongside."

Before he finished speaking.

The Butterfly Soul Blade emitted a humming resonance.

In the sky.

Another blade swiftly traversed the void, with a "clang" pierced into the ground beside the Butterfly Soul Blade.

Liu Ping walked out from the void, gripping this blade and spoke in a low voice:

"You think this is your world, but this world already belongs to God."

"You think this is your time, but the Master of Time says, your time has already ended."

"But it doesn't matter—"

The long blade cleaved straight down!

The void split open.

An identical Inner World appeared on the other side of the void.

"Eternally immerse yourself in the false space-time I created, where you can continue waiting for the evil demons."

In the northern corner, the old goblin was already gnawing furiously on a piece of smoked meat, his mouth full and muffled, saying:

"It's you! Don't think of hiding, I see where you're hiding!"

He waved a tattered short stick, pointing at a spot on the altar.

Liu Ping strode over, grabbed at the ground, and immediately pulled up a humanoid rune assemblage.

"Is it this?"

He asked.

"It is!" The old goblin jumped and shouted.

"It is!" In the sky, God's voice also rumbled.

"It was it in the past, it is it now, but it will not be it in the future!" Gu Xinghai declared loudly.

Liu Ping directly cast this humanoid presence into another Inner World.

"Forever slumber in the illusion we have woven together, you have no means to awaken."

Liu Ping said.

The void closed up.

The old goblin jumped, waving the short stick to draw out several beams of light, forming rough Life Runes.

These runes directly encircled Song Qingsi in the middle.

They aroused the gigantic Life Chart Disk in the sky.

A thread of light—

Light descended from the disk, illuminating Song Qingsi.

Seizing this moment—

"The ritual is complete!"

Nan Li shouted loudly.

In an instant.

The holy light intensified.

God's voice thundered across the sky:

"Quickly go!"

"Go!" Gu Xinghai commanded.

"Go immediately, do not get caught!" Liu Ping also shouted.

Before the words were finished, the holy light disappeared, the white flag along with Gu Xinghai vanished into the void, and Liu Ping grasped the blade and flew away.

Only the old goblin remained.

"Put her back on your Evil Spirit Book! Quickly, Little Wu!"

The old goblin shouted excitedly.

Wu Xiaode, without hesitation, reached out towards Song Qingsi, making a light pull through the air—

Song Qingsi instantly transformed into a shadow card, which he held firmly.

Wu Xiaode placed the shadow card on the Evil Spirit Book.

A breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

Lines of tiny bronze characters refreshed crazily:

"The combat tips are as follows:"

"The current world has been sanctified, it belongs to God;"

"The current time has formed a cycle, it was bestowed by the Master of Time to Liu Ping;"

"The old goblin found the hiding place of the World Will—"

"The old goblin is the true hide-and-seek master, no existence can hide in front of it!"

"Following the old goblin's guidance, Liu Ping kicked the current World Will into a false world, where time will eternally cycle, rendering the World Will forever unable to gain power, endlessly circling in the vortex of time."

"The old goblin caught the ritual, barely completing the entire world's master recognition ceremony."

"You turned the World Master into a card."

"You stored away the World Master."

"Congratulations."

"You've obtained the second card of the 'Pilgrimage'.

"The current card is:"

"The Fated Maiden."

"Now you can combine the two cards to truly acquire the 'Holy' attribute."

"The analysis for this card has been completed, it belongs to: the living creatures camp."

"——This is unprecedented."
