Chapter 2: New Century (Epilogue)
Chapter 844: Xi Wei Ascends to Godhood
“Good… good!”
“Ascend to godhood! Ascend to godhood!”
At this moment, all the confusion in Xi Wei’s eyes vanished.
Those who ascend to godhood must understand their own path.
When Bayedell was born, he wished to bring light to this dark world, so he became the brightest light.
When the God of Death Ossirist was born, he wished for control over the wandering souls in the world, so that all souls would have a place of peace, and thus he became the protector of lost souls.
Fario ascended to godhood, pursuing the ultimate extent of laws.
He finally merged the Magic Net with himself, and he succeeded.
At this moment, Xi Wei also understood his own path.
He was not originally from this world.
He had deep feelings for Cain.
But it was more like a transcendent being playing in the world.
His responsibility and goal had always remained in protecting those around him.
Loli, Ruo Yi, Bai Yao, You Ye, Connie, Nina, Xing Hai, Gabriel, Clemon… figures one by one appeared in Xi Wei’s mind.
Ossirist, who faced death to be born again towards Cthulhu; Gabriel, who was rigid in personality but a good person; the three Archangels, who were cunning like foxes and didn’t seem serious; the Pope of Light, who always had a kind smile; the Holy Dragon Lord, who cared for him greatly despite meeting only a few times… finally, his gaze settled on the smiling Lewenstein.
Along the way, it felt like countless hands were pushing him forward.
Now, it was finally his turn to take that step forward himself, the most important step.
This is Cain.
He was born in Cain, grew up in Cain, and everything around him was in Cain. He was no longer an outsider guest, but the master of this place!
Since there were external enemies disturbing them.
Then, naturally, he had to take on the responsibility of clearing out the enemies.
At this moment, ascend to godhood!
Without any hesitation, Xi Wei thrust the origin of Cain Will into his chest.
A drop of silver starlight fell.
The entire world fell silent!
Everything around them seemed to slow down countless times.
Whether it were the Old Ones’ Retainers, the avatars of the dominators, or the maids in battle, they all seemed frozen in place.
He stood up and walked forward step by step.
Before him, there seemed to be an invisible staircase, lifting him step by step towards the shattered high sky.
The dark clouds dared not obstruct Xi Wei’s steps and retreated to the sides, letting the sunlight return to the earth; the strong winds dared not roar around Xi Wei, they condensed beneath Xi Wei’s feet, lifting him forward to complete the final path.
A blank godhead appeared before Xi Wei’s eyes.
It was not the godhead that the Holy Dragon had given Xi Wei.
It was a godhead condensed from Xi Wei’s own will.
The Chaos Origin was immediately extracted from his body and gathered towards the godhead.
Next came Death Divinity, Angel Divinity, Light Divinity, War Divinity… As various chaotic divinities condensed towards the godhead, a supreme and majestic pressure spread outwards.
Xi Wei’s aura also surged upwards at an astonishing speed.
This godhead was like a giant black hole.
It not only absorbed divinity but also absorbed all the surrounding light.
The entire world plunged into void-like darkness.
Yet, countless star-like points of light floated up from various parts of Cain. Every blade of grass, every insect and bird, the soldiers of the Wintery Empire, the residents, and even all creatures on the entire continent, felt an unwavering call at this moment.
Gather the strength of all living beings in Cain to protect all living beings in Cain.
This was the path Xi Wei was to take.
Suddenly, a phantom of a maiden appeared behind Xi Wei. Her snow-white hair swayed, and her delicate hands lightly rested on Xi Wei’s shoulders. An Azure planet surrounded her—that was Cain.
The last vestige of Cain Will glanced back at its world, and finally, those star-like eyes fell upon Xi Wei. Wherever the starlight spread, it transformed into a moonlit glow and merged with Xi Wei.
The terrifying pressure surged again.
But it was not enough.
Xi Wei’s godhead was not yet filled.
It wasn’t even half full.
But as Cain Will dissipated.
Time in the entire world began to flow again.

“We cannot let the origin person ascend to godhood!!”
As the rules between the material plane and the Divine Realm shattered, the remaining four Old Ones’ dominators began to transform from their avatars into their true forms. Their auras also began to climb, and they all charged towards Xi Wei.
However, at this moment.
Four more oppressive auras rose behind the Old Ones’ dominators.
As the material plane merged with the Divine Realm.
Loli, Ruo Yi, and the others no longer needed to suppress their divine power.
At this moment, the power of belief and divine power were completely liberated from the divine artifacts. The four maids instantly leaped from demigod to high god.
They soared into the air.
Hovering in mid-air.
Almost level with Xi Wei’s ascension platform.
Then they spread their hands, and the divine power of four main gods transformed into divine power ribbons, connecting with Xi Wei.
Life, Time, Earth, Ocean.
As the power of the four gods condensed, Xi Wei’s godhead became increasingly complete.
Standing before the ascension platform.
Xi Wei slowly opened his eyes, two sparks of starlight flickering within them. He waved his sword, and with a “crack,” the sky shattered. The sword’s momentum was like a rainbow, rising from the horizon and descending like a crimson waterfall, cleaving into Itlak, the God of Spiders. Instantly, ten thousand flames burned the sky. The God of Spiders turned to ashes without a sound, leaving behind only a wisp of Chaos Origin that shot out from the ashes and merged with the godhead.
The Serpent God pounced from behind.
Xi Wei turned and swung his sword. With this strike, ten directions of heaven and earth, with dense, pitch-black sword light like a torrential downpour, covered the area. The Serpent God’s hundred-zhang body shattered inch by inch, its life force completely extinguished.
That Chaos Origin was absorbed into the godhead.
The kingly aura of the one standing before the ascension platform became even stronger.
Satugua, the Toad God, opened its monstrous maw, from which countless tentacles extended, weaving into a dense net in the air and descending towards the figure on the ascension platform. With the amplification of Old Ones’ energy, this net shattered the void, revealing the dark universe.
Within it, something unspeakable seemed to await its prey, and shadows formed claws and teeth, stretching towards the ascension platform.
Yitakuya, the White Silent God, stirred up a void storm, and chaotic power surged beneath the ascension platform.
A furious hurricane condensed into a monstrous, bloodthirsty maw spanning thousands of miles, slowly rising. Its depths were like an abyss, attempting to swallow Dragonflame City, the ascension platform, and the four main gods in one gulp.
In an instant, this piece of heaven and earth was churned by chaotic power. Above and below, there was no escape.
“Rumble—”
Crimson-gold lightning appeared around Xi Wei.
Bai Yao emerged from the lightning thunder.
She quietly looked at Xi Wei, her gaze filled with gentleness and trust. The thunder and the Punishing Divinity, along with the Chaos Origin, flowed into the godhead. You Ye also appeared simultaneously, emerging from Xi Wei’s shadow. The Night Divinity and the captured Chaos Origin merged together.
Boom—
With a world-shattering explosion.
Golden divine light surged outwards from the ascension platform like a wave, while pillars of sacred white faith power shot up into the sky, seemingly piercing through the entire heavens. The encroaching net of tentacles was instantly torn apart by the violent energy. As the sacred white pillars of light spread, the Toad God behind the net of tentacles was also crushed into dust.
Time and space seemed to enter another dimension before the ascension platform.
Xi Wei, wielding the King of Conquest Long Sword, stepped forward. Seven steps extended upwards from the ascension platform. With each step, a wisp of divinity from his godhead merged into the King of Conquest Long Sword.
As he stood at the very top.
He took one step down, and the King of Conquest Long Sword condensed into a divine artifact.
His figure then shot up into the sky, like an aurora, pouncing towards the black hole in the sky, his godhead following closely behind and entering his body.
The ascension platform he had stepped on shattered into pieces.
Beneath the ascension platform, Yitakuya seemed to be slapped by an invisible hand. Its monstrous maw, under immense force, instantly flipped over, kicking up dust for ten thousand miles.
As it was about to rise again.
A heaven-rending sword light arrived, a step too late.
“Ching—”
Heaven and earth suddenly darkened.
When sunlight reappeared.
All four Old Ones’ dominators had perished.
