Chapter 1706 - 1260: An End, A Beginning. _2

Whoosh!

The golden arm flew directly into the crack, and the crack healed in an instant. The silvery sphere vanished silently before everyone’s eyes, and with it, the arrival of the Worm God, no longer guided, completely disappeared.

The golden light at the site of Long Yi’s severed arm slowly dissipated, but Long Yi had no time to care about it; he was cautiously staring ahead.

Moments later, Simu’s voice echoed simultaneously in the minds of all living beings across all planes of the entire universe.

"We, have won."

And with that, Long Yi also passed out.

The great battle thus came to an end. People felt joy for the victory, and at the same time, they mourned the fallen. But what followed was not a grand celebration, but a collective slumber.

In the previous battle, nearly every sentient being had been praying to Simu, which was akin to concentrating their power to provide to him. Now that the war was over, almost everyone felt utterly exhausted.

Fortunately, all they needed to do was sleep it off.

The cosmic-scale battle, which had involved the survival of the universe, finally ended in victory. As people woke up, they finally started celebrating. But Long Yi did not know that, within the Imperial Palace of the Celestial Clan, in Elsa’s bedroom, Long Yi remained in a sleeping state. He breathed evenly and looked serene, yet showed no signs of waking. The gluttonous snake floated above his head, the golden light sphere motionless, as if frozen; Long Er, transformed into a mask, also floated there, constantly watching over Long Yi.

Time passed by day by day.

The epic battle became a topic of conversation for everyone for a long time, each one glad to have been part of the saviors. But as time went by, people gradually began to forget about it. Conflicts between individuals arose, wars between nations commenced, and the universe continued to operate, as usual.

Several girls visited Long Yi every day, and no one knew what had happened to him, not even Simu himself. But Simu was certain, Long Yi was alright.

Finally, one day, as Elsa and Ai Lin were chatting and came to Long Yi’s room, the door opened by itself. Long Yi, a bit stunned, smiled and said, "Hey, good morning."

Seeing the two girls tearfully throwing themselves into his embrace, Long Yi instinctively felt that he might have slept a bit too long, but he had no idea that he had actually been asleep for three whole years!

In those three years, laying there motionless, Long Yi’s first thought was whether he might have developed thrombosis? But he quickly realized there was no need to worry because what flowed through his body was not blood, but Divine Power!

The reason he had slept for so long was entirely due to the transformation by Divine Power.

In front of the arrived Little Zi, Isrile, Ruosha, Selena, and Simu, Long Yi recounted the events that had taken place.

At that time, Long Yi had tried to use Divine Power to strengthen his body and pushed the Infinite Divine Power Device to its limit. As endless Divine Power erupted, the Worm Avatar kept shrinking. Along with its diminishing size and weakening Divine Power, it could no longer continue to restrain the gluttonous snake and Long Yi. Thus, it transformed into a very special state, giving up almost all of its powers and anchoring itself to one of Long Yi’s arms. In this state, it stopped clashing with Long Yi over Divine Powers, and the gluttonous snake could not devour it. The Divine Power, which had nowhere else to go, surged into Long Yi, who, already on the brink of consciousness from the Divine Power enhancement, suddenly had his chest’s Heavenly Kingdom emblem activate on its own. It broke down and fully merged with Long Yi’s body, forming a new special kind of particle along with the Divine Power and the atoms that made up Long Yi’s body.

And in this state, Long Yi was completely awakened.

He instinctively sliced open the plane and emerged, then severed one of his arms, allowing the Worm Avatar and the arm to return to nothingness.

But it wasn’t over yet, because the Infinite Divine Power Device was still constantly releasing Divine Power. To protect himself, Long Yi’s body subconsciously lost consciousness. Long Yi had estimated he would wake up in a maximum of ten days, but unexpectedly, he slept for three full years!

In those three years, there weren’t many significant changes for everyone.

If there was any major change, it concerned the Celestial Clan.

In the end, the Emperor of the Celestial Clan abdicated, and the throne was still inherited by Sajia, a result of Selena’s voluntary renunciation. Sajia had indeed performed very well in the previous epic battle. Frankly speaking, in the realm of pure politics, Sajia was much stronger than Selena. Having given up the throne, Selena chose to become a traveler. She began traveling to every corner of various planets and quickly fell in love with this way of life.

Elsa and Ai Lin spent every day together, exploring recipes, sparring in martial arts, their relationship becoming incredibly close. In three years, Ruosha’s growth was astonishing; she had noticeably grown taller, and her curves had also improved distinctly. Moreover, she was always bickering and squabbling with Isrile, yet their relationship remained very harmonious. Little Zi continued her work as a little maid, cleaning every day, and in her spare time, she would go to discuss with Simu about the feelings of being a Creator God.
