Cupid heard this and said no more.

After all, he was a baby, in a unique state of life.

Weak, unable to cultivate, yet immortal, relying on his own mind to survive.

After that day, Rilla stopped traveling on Earth searching for remnants of the Demon King and instead took up residence again in the Celestial Kingdom.

She became very good friends with these child angels.

Day by day passed, until one day, news broke the peace.

"The Light God, assassinated and near death."

...

Year 1281 of the Butterfly Race.

Holy Empire.

The God of Light, Rex, was suddenly poisoned.

It was the four Wind God candidates, who conspired using the freedom of the wind, secretly poisoning him, viciously wounding this one.

"Hahaha!"

"Rex, you won't live much longer, this is the plague's wind poison, mixed with the fallen darkness!"

"God's subordinate is never a True God, you only used the Divine Object to awaken wisdom, making the Divine Object your ally, obeying your commands, integrating it into your body."

"You, like this, have the power of a god, but still a mortal's fragile body!"

At some unknown time, the four Wind God candidates, because of greed and conflict, showed vulnerabilities, which attracted the attention of the Plague Demon King, who used various means to corrupt them into evil gods in secret.

And after this sneak attack, the four Wind Gods swiftly departed and disappeared.

That day, the entire world was shocked.

The remnants of the Demon King returned.

Fortunately, the Demon King's Box was not stolen; their plan did not fully succeed.

However, the news that the Light God was dying spread throughout the world.

"How is this possible? The Light God is in his prime; even without the lifespan of a god, the mere lifespan of mortals at the fourth tier should be enough for thousands of years."

"I heard it was this severe injury, damaging the source, they developed a magic potion specifically against toxins."

"The Light God is dying."

...

If Rex truly were the Light Divine Object itself, then these toxins would not fear him at all.

However.

In essence, he had the body of a mortal, so he had a flaw.

The mortal body, sometimes that's just how easily it can die.

It was also in this year.

A shocked and furious Rilla descended from the Celestial Kingdom, quickly returning to the Holy Empire, seeing her brother who exuded a decaying aura, "I never thought you would leave before me."

Lying in his sickbed, Rex just laughed: "Neither did I think, the world is truly interesting."

Back then, he made a desperate gamble, and then won, glory came so suddenly.

But now, death came just as suddenly.

Even he did not expect such an inglorious end for himself.

Father was like this, and would he be too?

"Reality isn't a fairy tale, sometimes death comes just so suddenly." He felt no sorrow but laughed while explaining the whole process:

"I thought at the beginning, that the hidden Divine Object would target me."

"I can't guess its divine properties, no information about the other side, when it grows, and has the mind to calculate against someone without it, I only fear trouble."

"So, I've been on guard all these years, yet still could not prevent it."

Rex sighed, things were just as he guessed, "It's poison! It mastered toxins and infections, if it were another Divine Object, I might not fear him, but it happens to be..."

Toxins, too hard to guard against.

The other side gathered unknown amounts of toxins, potent enough to poison a Divine Spirit.

"The battle between light and darkness has just begun, I killed a generation of Demon King, they killed my generation of Light God."

"The era of light and dark battles has just begun."

Rex said: "Be careful of the toxins, and there's already a candidate for the next Light God; you need to nurture him as much as possible."

"The other side has been lurking for so many years, they must have developed a real deadly toxin, an unknowable plague from the Gods is about to descend on this land, be cautious!"

"And you?" Rilla cried.

"I'm going to die now."

Rex said: "I feel the toxins are using my body as a greenhouse, mutating and growing stronger, I cannot let them continue like this, plus there's the shadow power of the Ancestor Demon King corrupting me."

"I will gradually become evil, becoming the first fallen Light God."

Rex knew, he had to die.

Otherwise, he would become a terrifying demon, descending on the human world.

"I understand." Rilla's eyes flashed cold, "If this is your choice."

Soon, the news of the imminent fall of the Light God was confirmed by his sister, the heroic Rilla, spreading throughout the world.

"This can't be!"

"He was just seriously injured before, how did he suddenly die?"

"Yes, that's the Light God, the ruler of the entire land, God's disciple!"

All races thought it a rumor, not believing it.

The Light God was the ruler of this era; though overshadowed by the most brilliant God, no one would deny his strength.

...

Holy Empire.

Liu Jun walked slowly, looking at Rex, who was barely hanging on, with thousands of emotions in his heart.

Life is truly fragile.

Even though his disciple did not underestimate anyone, he still fell to a trick.

"Rex, I can ask the Longevity Divine Spirit to lock in your current life state." God stood still.

If it weren't for his disciple Rex, and it was replaced with an unfamiliar emperor, he wouldn't meddle in other people's business.

The stronger the life, the greater the cost to lock their state!

Rex, a fourth-tier powerhouse...

Liu Jun himself is essentially just a fourth-tier.

Locking the state of a powerhouse of the same tier, constantly maintaining this consumption, is a bit of a pressure for him!

Keep in mind.

Locking those without combat power, weaker even than ordinary people, weak infants, is the most cost-effective.

Rex sighed: "God, is it similar to your God Body's eternal existence state?"

God said: "Yes."

Rex said painfully: "If possible, one year, I only need one year."

"Right now, poisoned, I am in extreme pain, locking this kind of pain, eternally tormented, it's not a good thing for me, a year is enough to handle the remaining affairs and fulfill my last wishes."

"Moreover, my life has been glorious enough."

Liu Jun respected the other's wishes.

Not everyone wishes to cling to life.

The affinity with light is related to honesty and goodness, Rex has always been upright and naturally has no thought of clinging on.

Rex sighed:

"God, I will have dealt with the empire's matters in three months, can you take me on the last journey, I want to leave the empire to travel... with our siblings together, the three of us disciples, plus the metal box."

His life has never been lived for himself.

He misses the happy times of childhood a little.

"Okay."

God reached out his hand, brilliance enveloped his sick body, "With divine power borrowed from the Longevity Divine Spirit, it's enough to lock the state of the body, preventing the poison on you from continuing to infect."

Liu Jun knew that Rex had always wanted to go out, to do his own thing.

Beside him, Rilla was silent, she had just emerged from the shadow, feeling great, and had made a breakthrough in her state of mind, but now despair enveloped her again.

This time, her brother is dead.

Liu Jun did not speak, three months later, gathered everyone.

Rilla and Rex, one on the left and one on the right, plus the floating metal box in the sky, embarked on the journey.

"Going out to play a bit is good, weren't you saying as a child you wanted to see the end of the ocean, the stars in the sky, and what's hidden beneath the vast land? Go see them all."

The three of them left, departing from the bustling Holy Empire.

In the upcoming months, they came to towns of various races, meeting many interesting people and things.

At the beginning.

Rilla woke up with dark circles every day, unable to sleep, she was suffering.

Gradually, on the journey.

They saw talking magic mirrors, singing crystal boots, amidst the laughter of Rilla and her brother, it seemed they returned to the pure and innocent childhood.

She gradually came to terms, beginning to accept everything: "Just like Xiangtuo Mo said, under the long span of time we are all dust, he will leave, and so will I, he's just one step ahead."

On the road, they saw the plague, starting to spread quietly.

Then, they proceeded to the stars above.

Originally, this world had no data on this aspect.

But after Zhang Baixin brought a large amount of secret data of the sky and the earth, the star map in this regard was also established.

They flew above the atmosphere, looking at the stars.

Originally, it was completely impossible for them to enter space, so far from the body.

Because the soul would exhaust.

But Immortal and Unchanging, locking the soul's state, makes it possible for them to have consciousness to reach the sun.

After flying for a while, they saw a sun, but it was as small as Earth's in Liu Jun's past life.

"Such a small sun, can it really provide heat for the gigantic world beneath our feet?" Rilla looked curiously at the sun.

The proportion of the sun to the world and Earth is equivalent to exchanging areas with the past life's Earth.

Rex analyzed and said:

"Deep beneath the land we live on, there might be a larger sun hidden in the earth core, it's providing our thermal energy."

Rex lightly sighed:

"If one day, I hope the true Light God will reside on this sun, establish a palace, no, God should also live here, and establish a Celestial Kingdom on the sun."

"Perhaps you will see it."

God gently said: "Angelas, will establish a new Celestial Kingdom paradise here on the sun... By the way, where do you want to be buried?"

"This sun seems nice." Rex smiled, "Teacher, you being with me in the last moment, I'm already very happy."

He turned his head to look at his sister, without sadness or pain:

"Rilla, I originally thought you would leave before me, I didn't expect it would turn out this way."

"However, the most exciting thing about times is that it is not static, and various accidents will occur."

"I lived from a small Prince Angel back in the day, surviving five or six hundred years, becoming the Light God already, and I lived happily."

"Hope you will also be happy, Rilla."

He looked with some anticipation at God, but said nothing, nor did he care about the farewell.

In the last moment of life, Rex voluntarily entered the flame, choosing to die in endless light.

Watching Rex leave, Liu Jun was just somewhat silent.

Another of his disciples gone.

He might reduce the frequency of taking disciples in the future.

"Time for important business."

Also, on this day, a trace of coldness flashed in Rilla's expression, "The next disaster? Looks like after the wind disaster, the second disaster still has me as the pioneer."

At this moment she completely relaxed, with insight, a decisive battle intent flashed in her eyes.

She suddenly completely broke through to the fourth-tier, becoming the first mortal on earth to step into that realm without Ascension to Divinity.

The mortal Valkyrie, started anew on her journey of slaying the gods in the sky.
