Otherworldly Desert Dust

The miracle material fused once again with that ordinary body and soul, causing Wu Hen's dim crown radiance to burst forth in a brilliant blaze from the world's narrow crestice within an instant!

Wu Hen only felt that the blood in his whole body was fiercely burning, and endless strength wildly expanded within his soul.

Just a moment ago, compared to this Divine Python Earth Vein, Wu Hen was no different from an actual firefly.

Now, blazing like a scorching sun, his vast brilliance tore through the world window shrouded in shadows, carving out a bright path.

"Little Yi!"

Wu Hen was overwhelmed with joy, yet a mystery lingered in his heart.

Without a doubt, Little Yi was an incomparably noble holy spirit in the Desert Dust, capable of overseeing billions of lives like the Purple Robed Master or the Divine Python Earth Vein, becoming the Heaven of this Otherworld.

It didn't necessarily need him.

According to the standards of the Otherworldly Dust, he was indeed just a firefly that accidentally flew out of the forest, witnessing the vast and magnificent world, and glimpsing the blazing sun, awestruck by the immense brilliance of the universe.

Little Yi was precisely such a blazing sun, whose brilliance, if not restrained, could incinerate a firefly like him to ashes.

To Wu Hen, it seemed to merely reside temporarily here, having reached a temporary shared understanding with him in the weary darkness of the age.

Yet when faced with the God Python Earth Vein, which could threaten Little Yi's life, it returned to fight!

Why??

Did not the Venerable Desert Dust view humans as ants, insignificant even in their trillions, so why would it act so selflessly for him?

Could it be that Little Yi, unlike those so-called high-dimensional lords, held the same belief as he did, that life, regardless of greatness or insignificance, is made brilliant not by its scale but by soul and emotion?

With his right hand, a small tail coiled around Wu Hen's arm, and divine thunder spread along the crescent window, transforming into a dazzling river of white lightning, standing out starkly in the collapsing world!

Wu Hen did not know what kind of power that was, only felt his entire arm highly active with divine material, and even the nebulous void appeared to be in a burning state.

Instinctively, he gripped tightly, and in an instant, an immense divine miracle appeared in his palm, its boundless sword body seemed to span the sky, majestic, lofty, and infinitely sacred!

Wu Hen couldn't believe it himself; he was holding that same Black Divine Death Sword he had witnessed before.

Clearly, the small body fused perfectly with his palm without the slightest discord.

The burning void filled this narrow "heaven and earth," but the scorching divine might caused the nearing Divine Python Earth Vein to hesitate, even fear.

"Buzz~~~~~~~~~~~"

The Black Divine Death Sword emitted a dragon-like sword hum!

This sound was a complete declaration of war against the Divine Python Earth Vein!

As a colossal being like the vast heavens, it had already reached the pinnacle of life forms, yet at this moment, the Black Divine Death Sword was as fearless as Wu Hen!

Rather than surviving like an empty shell in the Desert Dust, it would, at this moment, release immeasurable light and heat like a perishing star, an eternal, indomitable will mingling with a surging, unyielding spirit, perfectly representing the resolution of both Little Yi and Wu Hen!

"Alright, let's fight!!"

Wu Hen sensed the Black Divine Death Sword unleashing its ancient battle intent toward him, accumulated from countless years wandering the Desert Dust. After his soul perfectly merged, these past battle memories would be shared with Wu Hen.

In an instant, as if spanning unknown centuries, Wu Hen saw, through Little Yi's memories, countless eternal beings comparable to the heavens, expanding ceaselessly like black holes, continuously devouring the Desert Dust world. Like the progenitors of ancient myths, they could annihilate a planet with a flick and trample countless worlds in rage...

Wu Hen saw a sun more magnificent than Zai Wu, extending its claws across a thousand divine realms, saw it baring its fangs towards "himself," and saw the universe-spanning God Demon Ships, more numerous than stars, encircling him in some abyss...

Hiding, wandering, fighting, risking lives, getting injured, barely surviving, fleeing...

In an instant, he glimpsed Little Yi's entire life—brilliant and shocking—utterly beyond Wu Hen's comprehension, especially those nearing the creator, Destruction Buddha, Pseudo Heaven; Little Yi had battled them all, achieving exhilarating victories, experiencing bleak defeats, and more often wounded and feeble, barely a faint dark lightning in the heavens and earth...

Rising and falling, sometimes shoulder-to-shoulder with the mightiest, others contending with fireflies, loneliness always accompanied it.

Loneliness…

Wu Hen suddenly understood why Little Yi would act selflessly too.

Being with him might require endurance and concealment, might be like walking on thin ice, might risk being crushed by Venerable Desert Dust, but at least it wouldn't be lonely.

During the time their souls fused, Little Yi witnessed Wu Hen's human fear of loneliness, his hesitation at losing loved ones.

How terrifying and boundless the Otherworldly Dust was, but just thinking of the family behind him, Wu Hen would leap forward without hesitation no matter how many times.

This emotion above all, Little Yi understood, agreed with, and didn't need complex thoughts or judgments, just acted on instinct!

Even if reduced to dust, unable to be the smallest firefly, this battle would hold more meaning than all past fierce contests with mighty divine beings!

Divine sense blossomed in Wu Hen's five senses.

Wu Hen didn't activate his spiritual vision, yet he seemed to possess eyes of infinite distance, infinite height.

Previously, Wu Hen couldn't see anything, couldn't see the true form of the Divine Python Earth Vein, limited by human perception.

But as the Black Divine Material kept expanding, expanding to a space transcending the Divine Python Earth Vein, Wu Hen finally saw the truly boundless world...

In this truly boundless realm, two vast and magnificent Primordial Earth Veins appeared, intertwining like two mysterious continents, their long and sturdy bodies like two fish swimming in the vast universe!

Compared to the more boundless world, they represented freedom and tranquility, following their nature in predation and leisurely roaming the heavens, yet to smaller lives, they embodied destruction, merciless heavens, ruthless creators, greedy like sharks!

Earth Vein Dragon!!

Male and female Earth Vein Dragon!!

Wu Hen finally saw clearly, knowing his enemies!

It seemed, in Little Yi's past memories, there was cause and effect with these male and female Earth Vein Dragons. Little Yi could distinguish clearly that the one forming the Sky Earth Vein was female.

The one swimming along the ground was male.

Their predation method was simple. Over long years, they split the heavens and earth, letting billions of creatures reside between their bodies, forming the so-called Divine Python Earth Vein world, where even other-blood humans once proliferated.

But at certain periods, they would intertwine, using their heavenly and earthly vein bodies to crush everything, the remnants absorbed like nutrients into their deeper earth vein organs.

The Otherworldly Dust was full of terror and unknowns. Many ignorant life forms would be drawn to the rich spiritual energy emanating from the Divine Python Earth Vein, driven mad for its numerous mineral treasures...

Thus, they fell into the male and female Earth Vein Dragon's sky-earth trap, a slowly crushing small-world prison—rarely could those with spiritual wisdom escape!

After entering the Divine Python Earth Vein, Nuwa God End did not stop for a moment.

She might not discern its true nature, yet, like Little Yi, knew of its extreme danger!

If the male and female Earth Vein Dragon adhered to their time law, thousand years closed, thousand years open, they could indeed be called a divine being. Short-lived creatures could seek its pattern; the Divine Python Earth Vein would be shelter.

But the male and female Earth Vein Dragon were greedy.

They did not follow their laws. Upon finding anything above celestial brilliance, they transformed into greedy predators, crushing everything in the Divine Python Earth Vein world!

"Little Yi, let's first help Nuwa God End escape."

Wu Hen flew to the world's crevice edge, raising the Black Divine Death Sword, slicing out a divine thunder-dazzling White River Sword Trace!!

Like countless silver stars converging into brilliant white, this sword trace White River cleaved the mountain teeth of the female Earth Vein Dragon, shattering its "fangs"!

Enough to pierce Nuwa God End's body, likewise, the lower mountain peaks would block her escape speed...

Wu Hen swung again, letting the mountain fangs fall, then dove sharply, standing on the earth vein, gazing at towering mountain teeth, he took a deep breath, unleashing a void vortex like a giant spacetime whirlpool!

Transforming into black light among thousands of mountain teeth, the void whirlpool destroyed the male Earth Vein Dragon's fangs, while Wu Hen slashed with thousands of sword edges, crisscrossing dazzling White Rivers, like a world-spanning ink landscape, rent apart by Wu Hen stroke after stroke!!

Without obstruction of mountain fangs, millions of creatures rushed to the light. Nuwa God End quickened her steps, carrying many escaping beings; her inherent kindness forbade driving them away, leading wounded and frightened ones to escape through the world crevice, fleeing the male and female Earth Vein Dragon's bloody maw!

"Boom boom boom boom~~~~~~~~"

As though unwilling to let beings escape, the female Earth Vein Dragon ground down fiercely. To Nuwa God End, it felt like heaven collapsing, ready to smash her flat!

Wu Hen was furious!

He roared, lifting his sword toward the cruel heavens...
