Chapter 494 - Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light and Survival in Death

"I've finally been waiting for you..." The Void Giant God's gradually clearing eyes looked at Rosen, and he spoke in human language. Rosen's pupils contracted sharply, feeling an unprecedented sense of crisis.

"I understand your doubts. Look at this, and your doubts will be resolved." The Void Giant God spoke, spitting out a thumb-sized, cracked spherical bead that, with a flash in the void, was already close to Rosen. Rosen caught the bead; he could feel that the Blue Star Micro-Universe was of the same origin as the bead.

The bead also seemed to sense the Blue Star Micro-Universe, so it offered no resistance to his Indestructible Source Seed's refinement. It turned out that this bead was formed from a fragment of the Chaos Orb, and it was also a missing part of the Blue Star Micro-Universe. The true form of the Blue Star Micro-Universe was the Chaos Orb from Blue Star's myths and legends.

After the Chaos Orb shattered, it split into two and scattered into the endless deep space. The main part of the Chaos Orb integrated into Blue Star, becoming the foundation of the Blue Star Micro-Universe. Although the portion of the Chaos Orb in the Void Giant God's hand was not the main part, it was formed from the Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light of the Chaos Orb.

The Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light is the core of the Primordial Universe's innate treasures, possessing indestructible properties similar to Indestructible Will. The Void Giant God could see all events happening on Blue Star through the Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light. Therefore, the Void Giant God was not unfamiliar with him, which explained why he spoke human language and knew of his existence.

The Blue Star Micro-Universe has now integrated the lost Innate Indestructible Spiritual Light. In the future, it will gradually transform from an Eternal Micro-Universe to a Primeval Micro-Universe. Although the original Blue Star Micro-Universe could also regenerate, it relied on Blue Star's spacetime reincarnation, not on truly possessing indestructible properties itself.

"What do you want to gain by waiting for me?" Rosen asked the Void Giant God.

"I want to live!" The Void Giant God roared with clear eyes, exerting all his might in anger. This anger wasn't directed at Rosen, but rather, the Void Giant God had been suppressed for too long, reaching its limit.

Stimulated, it could no longer suppress its truest thoughts. Having struggled on the brink of death for billions of years, the Void Giant God's will to survive was incredibly strong.

"What do I need to do to make you live?" Rosen asked cautiously.

"Dig out my brain, and take my brain out of the Void Universe." The Void Giant God lowered his head and pleaded.

"That's all it takes?" Rosen looked at the Void Giant God and asked.

The Void Giant God nodded excitedly, but what he saw was only Rosen's mocking smile. Although lacking spirituality and not particularly intelligent with just a brain, the Void Giant God was no fool.

He had observed Blue Star through the Chaos Orb for countless years, so it wasn't difficult to discern that Rosen was mocking him. Could it be that Rosen knew his true intentions?

"The human heart is unfathomable; humans are very good at acting." Rosen said, stepping back. "I was wondering how the Feathered God's corpse happened to be discovered by me. It turns out you actively sent it to me."

"You understood something about me through the Blue Star Micro-Universe, knowing my methods, so you knew I had a way to utilize the Feathered God's dried corpse. Then you even offered the Chaos Orb, using it to express your goodwill to me. If I were to actually dig out your brain, your brain would definitely seize the opportunity to take over the body of this clone of mine."

"How did you see that I intended to take your body?" the Void Giant God asked, unwilling to give up.

"Don't you look in a mirror?" Rosen countered. "Your gaze and expression aren't about survival; they're about appetite and greed."

The Void Giant God fell silent. He hadn't dared to face himself for countless years. Watching his immortal body rot, seeing himself slowly approach death, simply living had exhausted all his strength. He had been too agitated just now, losing control unconsciously.

The Void Giant God instantly mobilized all his remaining power, his Life Magnetic Field driving his body to move. Since deceiving Rosen had failed, he would use absolute power to forcibly seize the body that had fused with the Feathered God's life origin. With this body, he could escape the prison of the Dark Sun Heavenly Eye and survive.

A terrifying Life Magnetic Field instantly spread, enveloping Rosen's Yinglong Clone like a domain. Rosen also activated his Life Magnetic Field to resist, but his was easily crushed by the Void Giant God's. The disparity was too great; the remnant Void Giant God was still far stronger than him.

Moreover, Rosen had only obtained the life origin of an incomplete Feathered God embryo, while even with only a head remaining, the Void Giant God's remaining life origin was overwhelmingly stronger than his. Facing the Void Giant God's Life Magnetic Field, he had no room to resist. In a flash of life and death, Rosen contracted his Life Magnetic Field to his back, creating a space. Spacetime tore open a seam, and Rosen's true body stepped onto the Yinglong Clone's back, instantly merging into the clone's body.

The next moment, Rosen, now fused with his clone, was crushed to dust by the enraged Void Giant God's manipulated Life Magnetic Field. Rosen instantly resurrected through Indestructible Will. He had already seen through the Void Giant God's weakness; the Void Giant God could forget about parasitizing his Yinglong Clone.

Through observing the Blue Star Micro-Universe, the Void Giant God knew a lot about him. But when he came outside the Void Universe remnant, preparing to explore it, the Void Giant God released feathers to kill scouts like the Dimensional Saint God. Why wouldn't the Void Giant God worry about scaring him away?

Upon meeting the Void Giant God, he chose to deceive rather than directly attack with force. Even though he possessed overwhelming absolute power, the Void Giant God chose deception. The only possibility Rosen could think of was that the Void Giant God feared him.

Indeed, the Void Giant God was exceptionally powerful, but he was no pushover either. The immense survivability of Indestructible Will far surpassed the Void Universe's extraordinary system, which centered on life origin. It was easy for the Void Giant God to defeat him, but killing him or taking his body was almost impossible.

Therefore, although the Void Giant God seemed formidable, he actually had no way to deal with Rosen's true body. That's why the Void Giant God released feathers to instantly kill pathfinders like the Dimensional Saint God, using it as a deterrent to prevent his true body from entering the Void Universe remnant. The Void Giant God's target all along was his clone, which is why he sent the Feathered God's dried corpse to help him cultivate his clone.

Now, Rosen's true body and clone were one, and Indestructible Will instantly permeated his entire being. It was almost impossible for the Void Giant God to shake his Indestructible Will and seize his body, which is why he furiously tore his body apart. Rosen was torn apart repeatedly by the Void Giant God's Life Magnetic Field, and then resurrected repeatedly through Indestructible Will.

The Void Giant God fell into deep thought, finally understanding something and making a decision. The Void Giant God opened his mouth and swallowed Rosen whole. The Life Magnetic Field enveloped him, bringing him deep into the Void Giant God's brain. He even tried his best to tear open a gap in his own brain core, then squeezed Rosen inside, continuously pouring life origin through the gap.

Rosen felt the life origin forcefully surging into his body and immediately understood the Void Giant God's intention. The Void Giant God had originally intended to eat the Yinglong Clone's brain and then parasitize his own brain into it, taking over the nest.

Now that this path was blocked by Indestructible Will, the Void Giant God chose a second path. The Yinglong Clone had absorbed the Feathered God's life origin, gaining the ability to transform into the Feathered God. Now, the Void Giant God was forcefully integrating his life origin into Rosen's body, essentially forcing upon him the ability to transform into the Void Giant God.

Every time Rosen transformed into the Void Giant God, the life origin that the Void Giant God integrated into his body would revive once. After several revivals, he would, in turn, be devoured by the Void Giant God's life origin, allowing the Void Giant God to revive through his body, unless he never transformed into the Void Giant God and slowly, over a long period, completely digested the Void Giant God's life origin.

The Void Giant God's desperate gamble was that Rosen wouldn't be able to resist transforming into the Void Giant God over countless eons. Ten thousand years flowed by silently, and the Void Giant God's skeleton gradually decayed into dust.

Every drop of Life Origin was squeezed dry by the Void Giant God and forcefully integrated into Rosen's body. Finally, even the Void Giant God's head began to decay little by little, with only the Dark Sun Heavenly Eye in its glabella remaining perfectly intact. It gradually shrunk and forcefully integrated into Rosen's glabella, fusing with his Dark Sun Heavenly Eye and prompting his Dark Sun Heavenly Eye to transform to a higher level.

As the Void Giant God's brain core also gradually decayed into dust, Rosen finally completely fused with the Void Giant God's Life Origin. In fact, halfway through the fusion, the Void Giant God's Life Magnetic Field was no longer sufficient to suppress him. However, since he had already fused halfway, there was no reason to give up the remaining half.

Such actively offered Life Origin would be too much of a pity to miss. Rosen, as a Primeval Lifeform, was able to rapidly increase his strength previously because he obtained resources in the Starry Sky Universe that allowed him to grow quickly. However, the New Universe itself is now hungry; unless he wants to destroy the New Universe, it cannot provide him with resources for continued growth. He must not only sustain the New Universe but also the Blue Star Micro-Universe and the Root Micro-Universe.

It was precisely because he couldn't get enough to eat but couldn't die of starvation that Rosen didn't hesitate to traverse the endless deep space for a hundred thousand years to reach the Void Universe remnant. Rosen was very clear that if he couldn't find resources, he might struggle to grow much even in a billion or ten billion years. To grow from a Primeval Lifeform to a Transcendent lifeform was even more of a pipe dream.

Therefore, facing the Life Origin actively offered by the Void Giant God, even knowing it was poisonous, he accepted it without hesitation. Rosen had also considered whether to abandon the Yinglong Clone and travel to other cosmic remnants. However, the Void Universe remnant had the Void Giant God, and who could say whether other cosmic remnants had similar existences?

The Void Giant God couldn't do anything to his Indestructible Will, but that didn't mean there weren't existences in other cosmic remnants that could destroy Indestructible Will. So, he actually had no retreat; only by completely consuming the Void Giant God could he have the confidence to explore other cosmic remnants.

Rosen felt his own changes, his brow furrowing as he transformed from the Yinglong form to a humanoid one. He had originally thought that as long as he didn't transform into the Void Giant God, the Void Giant God's Life Origin would be unable to revive. But he didn't expect that the Void Giant God would even integrate all of its own life talents from its life brain core into his body.

The Feathered God's life talents were the Life Magnetic Field and Life Assimilation, while the Void Giant God's life talents were the Life Magnetic Field and Life Space. This Life Space was essentially a unique world formed by the fusion of the Life Magnetic Field and space. It was similar to a domain, but infinitely more powerful.

Life Space could encompass and crush all things, converting them into Life Origin. The Void Giant God relied on Life Space to continuously obtain endless Life Origin, allowing him to overpower other Transcendent lifeforms and to survive until now by the continuously supplied Life Origin from Life Space. Although the Void Universe was primarily void, that didn't mean it was truly empty and devoid of anything.

It simply meant that all the resources and treasures in the entire Void Universe remnant had been converted into Life Origin by the Void Giant God using Life Space. Rosen now also possessed the Life Space talent, and he could use it freely in his true form without transforming into the Void Giant God. On the surface, this was certainly a good thing, but it actually meant that even if he didn't transform into the Void Giant God, he would still be assimilated by the Void Giant God's Life Origin.

Of course, this wasn't the most fatal issue, as he could actively suppress the use of Life Space. The real trouble was the Dark Sun Heavenly Eye. His Dark Sun Heavenly Eye was originally parasitized and controlled by an Indestructible Source Seed, but now the Dark Sun Heavenly Eye had evolved further, breaking free from the Indestructible Source Seed's parasitism and even beginning to try to take control of his body.

If Rosen suppressed the Void Giant God's Life Origin, it would be difficult to resist the Dark Sun Heavenly Eye's attempt to take over his body. If he suppressed the Dark Sun Heavenly Eye, he wouldn't be able to suppress the Void Giant God's Life Origin. This was the Void Giant God's true trump card; he had underestimated the Void Giant God. Indeed, the Void Giant God's intelligence wasn't particularly strong, but after countless years of only considering how to survive, the Void Giant God had already considered every possible aspect.

Otherwise, if his deception had failed, the Void Giant God wouldn't have changed his mind so quickly. However, although the Void Giant God considered everything comprehensively, he also overlooked one thing. Rosen had more than just the Dark Sun Heavenly Eye; he also had the Eye of Nightfall. As the Dark Sun Heavenly Eye began to transform to a higher level, the Eye of Nightfall was also stimulated and began to transform, although the Eye of Nightfall still lacked higher-level power for its transformation.

So, as long as he found power sufficient to sublimate the Eye of Nightfall, the threat of the Dark Sun Heavenly Eye would be greatly reduced. At that point, Rosen would have enough time to calmly deal with the Void Giant God's threat. Even if he absolutely couldn't find power to sublimate the Eye of Nightfall, he could make the worst-case decision and return to the New Universe. Then, he would rely on the power of the New Universe to suppress the Dark Sun Heavenly Eye, but doing so would trap him in the New Universe, making it difficult to leave. Therefore, he would not take this path unless it was absolutely necessary.
