Chapter 561: Chaptre 561: The Final World.

"...[Ego]."

The moment the name left his lips, Li Feng’s empty eyes flickered with a distant, decisive light.

And he made his choice.

[Gold].

In that instant, pure golden radiance flared violently around his left hand, as if a fragment of an eternal star had been condensed into his palm.

At the same time, the dark energy of [Sever] surged around his right hand... cold and merciless, coiling like living blades of absolute nothingness.

The two opposing forces did not clash.

Instead, they resonated, orbiting his figure in a perfect, contradictory balance.

Li Feng’s voice was soft.

"...Lightless World."

The crimson domain reacted at once.

Then color drained from existence.

The burning fog, the flame-wreathed clones, the solidified walls of fire... everything lost its hue in a single breath, collapsing into a world of absolute grey.

Movement itself seemed to falter.

The charging clones slowed mid-stride, their attacks hanging in the air as if the concept of motion had been forcibly stripped away.

The sealed realm became a silent, colorless expanse where only Li Feng’s dual-colored hands retained any true brilliance.

Then the second authority stirred.

"...Endless World."

From [Sever], countless faint lines began to appear.

They were almost invisible at first... hair-thin trajectories that stretched across the grey world without beginning or end.

The lines ran through the frozen clones, through the distant regenerating form of the original False Crown, through the very fabric of the domain itself.

An infinite framework of absolute cutting paths unfolded in every direction, turning the Lightless World into a silent cage of predetermined severance.

Li Feng’s palms slowly came together.

Golden light and dark energy intertwined between his fingers, compressing into a single, terrifying point of authority that made the grey world itself tremble.

His empty eyes lifted toward the original False Crown as he invoked what had once been his favorite combination of the two Divine Authorities.

"...The Final World:"

The combined force fully bloomed.

"Golden Severance."

In that moment, the grey, motionless domain was overwritten by a single absolute principle.

Golden Severance unfolded without a sound.

There was no explosion, no roar and no dramatic collapse of energy.

Silently, everything simply turned white.

The frozen clones, the regenerating False Crown, the sealed crimson domain, the lingering traces of fire and blood... all of it was erased into pure, boundless white.

The dual radiance of gold and darkness around Li Feng’s hands vanished into that same emptiness, as if the technique had cut away not only the enemies, but the... world itself.

In a place of endless white.

A figure currently wearing a white envoy robe suddenly stirred.

The real Li Feng, the original consciousness that had been pushed into the depths of his own body found himself standing in a featureless expanse of pure white.

There was no sky, no ground, no horizon.

There was only infinite blankness stretching in every direction.

He looked around, confusion flashing across his face.

"...Where am I?"

For a brief moment, only confusion filled his eyes as he stared into the endless white.

Then—

He suddenly smacked his own forehead with his hand, eyes widening as the memories crashed back all at once.

"...Damn! I didn’t know I could do all that..."

During the entire fight after he activated the Wishing Card, his consciousness had been forcibly pushed aside.

The future version of himself had taken complete control of the body, while he, the original Li Feng had been reduced to a silent spectator, watching everything unfold from the depths of his own mind without being able to interfere.

The overwhelming techniques, the calm, calculated arrogance, the effortless dismantling of the False Crown... none of it had been under his direct control.

Li Feng lowered his hand from his forehead and stared blankly into the endless white, a complicated expression slowly forming on his face.

"...That was really me?"

His voice was quiet, almost disbelieving.

The way that future self had treated a dynasty-devouring calamity like a noisy insect... it all felt too distant from the person he currently was.

Even though he knew it was a version of himself from more than a million years later, standing here as a mere spectator and watching that existence move through his body still left a strange, hollow feeling in his chest.

"I almost can’t believe that was me..."

Li Feng let out a quiet sigh and finally began looking around the endless white space with a more focused gaze.

"...But where the hell am I—"

His words suddenly stopped.

Because a short distance away, standing calmly within the same featureless expanse, was another person.

The figure looked exactly like him.

The only clear difference was the attire.

Where Li Feng still wore the remnants of his tattered white envoy robes in his consciousness, the other him was dressed entirely in black.

The dark cloak and the cold, empty eyes were identical to the existence that had just dominated the battlefield against the False Crown.

The two identical figures faced each other in the silent white space.

"..."

"..."

The future Li Feng’s empty eyes narrowed slightly as he studied the one standing before him.

After a brief pause, he parted his lips and began to speak.

"Who—"

Before he could finish the question—

"Wow, you’re so cool!"

The original Li Feng’s face lit up with pure excitement as he suddenly rushed over without the slightest hesitation.

His earlier confusion and self-mockery were momentarily forgotten, replaced by the energetic reaction of someone who had just met his idol in person.

He stopped right in front of his future self, eyes shining with unrestrained admiration.

"How did you do all of that?!"

Then questions came out in a rapid, almost breathless stream before the future version could even respond.

"That Golden Severance thing... what even was that?! And the way you just walked through those beams like they were nothing! Was that really the Starforge Body?! Also, when you cut the False Crown into minced meat with one move, was that pure [Sever]?! And the star explosion in the sky... how does sacrificing external stars even work?! Can I learn that now, or is it something only the future version can do?!"

The future Li Feng, however, simply stared back.

Those empty, lightless eyes, normally calm and distant now held a rare flicker of genuine confusion.

He looked at the energetic figure in front of him as if facing something he had long forgotten how to deal with.

"This is..."

For a brief moment, the black-cloaked existence who had casually dismantled a dynasty-devouring calamity found himself at a loss against his own overly excited past self.
