Apocalypse Forecast

”You even know about this? It seems your relationship with the Dongxia Genealogy is deeper than I imagined.”

Guo ShouQue heard his mumbling and shook his head, clicking his tongue with emotion, ”If you ask me, this kind of trash should already be thrown to the scavengers in the Abyss.

Xuan Niao, when it gets old, becomes stingy, thinking it can be repaired and reused. Shave off the extra parts with the White Wolf Hook, patch it up, and then use it as a new trick to fool kids... Once you catch a sheep, you strip it to death, it’s downright disgraceful.”

Huai Shi suddenly felt like it started raining from the sky.

Tears streamed down like rain.

Fooling kids? I’m also quite young, but why doesn’t Xuan Niao come to fool me!

Sends a Divine Artifact, even includes a Stigmata, maybe they’ll even send a Miracle Imprint... If only they had mentioned earlier how good the Dongxia Genealogy welfare is!

This shabby life, I want it too!

Now, under the blessing of the Nine Phoenix, the miracle hailed as the ’Heaven Emperor’s Girl’ marches forward.

Gu Huo, the miracle coexisting throughout the Asian region.

Not only in Dongxia and Japan, but even in Shinra, Baekje, and India, there are derivative legends.

It was a choice offered after the careful selection by Xuan Niao.

Such advancement would not damage the legitimacy of Amber itself as the successor of the Satomi clan, and can perfectly integrate with the Prajna sustained by absorbing resentment.

More importantly, it originates from the Stigmata of the Ghost division, able to connect upwards with the Nine Phoenix, and — the possibility of restoring this damaged divine Stigmata back to the Fifth Stage.

Gaozong conquering the Ghost Division, achieved victory in three years.

Since the ancient Shang Dynasty period, when Yin Gaozong Wuding crusaded the Ghost Division, this miracle road named after the Ghost Division had congenital deficiencies.

As the divine nature collection of ’Shang’ — Sky Destiny Xuan Bird, played a significant role in this process indeed.

The miracle revered by the Ghosts Division, the totem worshiped, ’Nine Phoenix’, itself fell from a holy bird possessing equivalent divine nature to the Phoenix, covering Jiuye and devouring the world, to a demon similar to the ’Ghost Car’.

And the main origin of Gu Huo Bird also split from this fallen divine nature, becoming an evil spirit that plunders infants and throttles children.

If you want the miracle of the Nine Phoenix to be elevated again, you must let its destiny reconnect with the country and faith, reborn as a guardian spirit, to nurture anew.

Regrettably, such a path is absolutely unfeasible in Dongxia.

Even if Xuan Niao became senile, suddenly passed away, and was replaced by an ignorant three-year-old child, it would never allow the existence of ’Dragon Vein’ to be tainted and interfered with.

This is the foundation of the entire Dongxia Genealogy, the splendid crystal formed by Dragon’s Heavenly Command, where Dongxia’s Source lies.

Even if the Danqing Volume was burned, and the White Wolf Hook smashed, and the Kyushu Provinces sold as scrap, they would never let this holy essence of the dragon be slightly shaken.

Otherwise, where would the Nine Phoenix stand, directly replace it with Phoenix — after extracting this divine nature, Dongxia could immediately restore the terrifying glory period of the double Natural Enemy, and it would be father and daughter double Natural Enemy, with the existence of Soldier Owner and Phoenix, it could at least support the entire Dongxia Genealogy for three hundred years of glory.

There’s nothing more foolish than drying up the pool for fishing, with such a big family and business, why bother wasting the old capital?

But Amber is different, Amber is unique.

Though Yingzhou has long abolished the nominal existence of the Hua Clan, the legitimacy of the Satomi clan in AnFang Country is unwavering — the whole Yingzhou still covertly maintains the existence of a feudal system.

Once Amber enters the Satomi clan, the Nine Phoenix would essentially merge with AnFang Country, through the genealogy’s source and the intricate veins formed by long history, becoming a nail of the Dongxia Genealogy in Yingzhou. When that happens, the neighboring WIFI, wouldn’t you steal it however you like?

But the plan itself has a significant weakness — no matter how Xuan Niao works secretly, sabotages competitors, secretly removes most of the pressure from America, the Russian Federation, and Rome for Amber, the iron still needs to be firm itself, Amber itself must possess absolute strength and advantage to enter the Satomi family rightfully.

Therefore, it is still a two-handed preparation.

Chef Demon showdown, with Guo ShouQue prevailing strongly sweeping across.

And once any accident occurs, requiring turning against each other, besides Huai Shi’s role as the top-level tool with insurance, Amber itself is also endowed with the necessary trump card.

Now, this power... is surfacing in the Sky Dome.

Enough to conquer nations and break through circumstances, the sharpness reveals here.

Descending from the sky.

”I know this, it’s Xuanyuan Sword, right!” Huai Shi clapped his hands in excitement, arriving at the conclusion.

Beside him, Guo ShouQue’s eyes rolled up to the sky.

Dreaming?

Xuanyuan Sword? If this thing was really left behind, Xuan Niao would have to hold it while sleeping without letting go, and if anyone wanted to take an extra look, they would kill their whole family, how could it possibly be taken out casually?

This evidence of authority equal to a national handle, wanting to materialize it, unless the entire Dragon Vein was drained, otherwise don’t even think about it. Before this, the Asian Astronomy Association’s division would explode on the spot, the Central Decision Making Room rising collectively to heaven, the Guide Association’s undead would rise from the coffin.

Why would you Dongxia take the Authority Relic used to create the era, establish national unity, accumulating nearly six thousand years of historical and miraculously derived relic out for no reason?

Planning to gamble on the national luck for a full-blown war with the Russian Federation, or pierce through the bottom of the Current Circumstances, let’s all joyfully play house in Hell together?

”I am just trying to liven up the atmosphere?”

Huai Shi touched the small pistol in his hand, feeling incredibly despondent — compares lives lead to death, compares equipment lead to abandonment, Beelzebub, you’re already a mature Fate Recorder, you should learn how to self-fund yourself.

Beelzebub doesn’t want to speak.

At this moment, Huai Shi feels the resonance and shock from the divine nature of the Soloist, and that indescribable sharpness and deterrence, eyes pain in waves.

Unable to directly gaze at the terrifying aura slowly transforming from the ancient mirror.

Can feel, among it ongoing brewing, a power magnitude akin to a nuclear bomb.

If it’s not restrained and allowed to fully erupt, then likely most of Nara would collapse from the aftershocks of the earthquake, wouldn’t it?

What was even more unbelievable for him was that even so, it didn’t trigger the alarm of the Asian Astronomy Association—meaning, the existence of this weapon was officially registered and filed in the society’s system, deemed compliant with the procedure, and available for use...

”It’s just that, using the power of the White Wolf Hook, the Miracle of the Phosphorus Ancient Mirror was traced upward to reveal its most original form—even though its essence has not changed.

One can only say that Xuan Niao’s twisted sense of humor has become increasingly remarkable...”

Guo ShouQue raised his eyes and stared at the cold light rushing through the sky: ”Wuding reigned for fifty-nine years, in his first year’s year of Wu forged a sword, three feet long, inscribed ’Zhaodan’.”

That sword was itself a symbol of vanquishing the Ghosts Division and devastating the Nine Phoenix.

The projection of the Sword of Destruction.

——Miracle Imprint·Shining Gall!

Its essence is in entrusting the entire Shang Dynasty’s national destiny to the Xuan Niao symbolizing its heavenly mandate, transforming it into pure quality, ascending to the sky, transcending the constraints of the earth, and breaking through the limits of the sky dome. From the cosmic dark origin outside space, the miracle reverses into disaster, delivering annihilative heaven punishment to those who dare defy!

It transforms itself in violent tremors, cracking and shaking.

Amid this terrifying power enough to obliterate the Ghosts Division in one strike, the rising blood light quickly dissipated.

At that moment, Amber lowered her eyes.

”It’s almost time to say goodbye, Father.”

Behind her, in the shadow of the Gu Huo Bird, cracks gradually appeared—when the miracle imprint of vanquishing the Ghosts Division descended, it brought deep and vast pain to the Road of Ghosts miracle too.

When the Demon Realm was shattered, this double-edged sword was also harming the Nine Phoenix and Amber.

This was the feeling she longed for but could not attain.

Finally, she could empathize and understand everything her father once experienced...

”■■■!!!!”

The bloody Eight Rooms trembled violently, and the instinct formed by that malicious thought shrieked in terror.

But this time, she finally heard that vague voice, the call from the shattered soul trapped in the deepest part of the Demon Realm.

That was her name.

Countless times, painful, numb, sorrowful, reluctant calls—

”Amber...”

At that moment, the mask armor shattered, and in the hollow darkness, a cracked and blurry face appeared, with hollow eyes gazing at the teenage girl before it.

Looking at that face which never faded from memory, murky tears flowed out.

Was it resentment or affection? It was already impossible to distinctly discern from the chaos; whether love or hate, both had worn away in transformation, with only the final obsession remaining.

Calling her name.

Again and again.

”Amber... Amber... Amber...”

”I’m here, Father, I am right here.”

Amber whispered softly, stepping forward each time, disregarding the sharp aura of the Cut Off the Vajra Sword leaving grievous wounds on her.

”Please don’t worry.”

She smiled, tenderly speaking to her father, ”All these years, I’ve been doing well, I’ve grown, learned new skills, bought new clothes, made new friends, and started a life different from before. On holidays there’s fish to eat, during the New Year there’s also a reunion dinner invitation for me...”

She said, ”This time I’ve returned to bid you farewell.”

”■■!!!!” Amid the vast calamity, those lost souls roared, filled with grudge.

Because there was a light of iron converging in her hand, like molten iron, emanating a blazing light, burning those souls’ grievances and her palm.

Numerous darknesses were rising like steam from her fingertips, accompanied by a piercing pain deep into the soul.

”I’m sorry, Father.”

She continued calmly forward, gazing at that gradually blurring face: ”Sorry for not fulfilling our agreement.”

Leaving you alone here for so many years, then selfishly running away by myself, I’m sorry... being trapped in such darkness, unable to be released, it must have been very sad, right?

It was I who asked you for this sacrifice, but it was also I who failed to fulfill my duty.

Because of a moment’s hesitation, such a bad outcome was created.

”Please don’t worry, soon you won’t have to suffer or fear anymore.”

She smiled strugglingly, holding back tears, and told him: ”This time, I will personally end you.”

The Eight Rooms roared, the Cut Off the Vajra Sword lifted, slashing forward under infinite pressure.

The blade of extermination formed by entangled malicious thoughts turned into spreading blood light, swallowing everything.

In that instant, there was a sharp and brisk fiery light emerging from the Blood Sea, rising like a flying bird, soaring elegantly, cutting through endless waves.

Just like a tear, a fleeting moment.

The end.
