Chapter 445 The Forbidden Zone of Heavenly Sound and the Mother's Symphony of Compassion
Chapter 444

In the Destiny Study, Rosen opened the portal and quietly sent a floating eye into it.

This is a snail that formed from the transformation of one of the omniscient species into two.

The snail, which is transformed from the source of all things, possesses life characteristics and can grow on its own.

The best nourishment for the growth of the Omniscient Source Species is the infinite knowledge within the universe.

Through the Book of Destiny, the all-knowing bookworm can acquire knowledge beyond imagination.

Therefore, the Omniscient Bookworm has become a regular visitor to the Destiny Study. Every time the Space Mosquito merges into the space and confirms that no one is in the Destiny Study, the Omniscient Bookworm will recklessly search for information about all the eternal beings still alive in the universe.

Rosen himself was not idle either, constantly searching for relics of primordial life in the universe through the Heart of the Universe.

Initially, he believed that the primordial ocean of the universe must contain relics of primordial life.

But now he realized he was wrong. The relics of the primordial life in the Origin Sea of ​​the Universe had already been obtained by the eternal life. Over billions of years, no matter how vast or dangerous the Origin Sea of ​​the Universe was, it was enough for hundreds of eternal life forms to plunder it clean.

Therefore, we cannot rely on the primordial ocean of the universe; we can only search for a needle in a haystack on a cosmic scale.

As a result, Rosen got nothing, but the Omniscient Bookworm found a clue.

It's not easy to find relics of primordial life now, but many ancient eternal beings made discoveries in the primordial ocean of the universe.

The Eternal Soul-Binding Horn of the Eternal Soul-Binding Wolf was a harvest from the Origin Sea of ​​the Universe.

Since the Eternal Soul-Binding Wolf can reap rewards, other eternal beings will naturally be no exception.

Heavenly Sound Holy God, the second tier of eternal life within eternal life.

He died at the hands of the Holy Spirit of Silence, and the Holy Spirit of Silence is still alive and well in the Temple of the Holy Spirit.

The body of the Heavenly Sound Saint God fell into the hands of the Silent Saint God and has now become an eternal sacred object. However, the eternal world of the Heavenly Sound Saint God did not fall into the hands of the Silent Saint God, because that eternal world contains enough power to drag eternal life down with it.

All forbidden zones in the universe possess a deadly quality that would make even eternal life retreat.

On the contrary, immortal gods and demons are relatively safe because they are not powerful enough to threaten the eternal world.

The Soul-Binding Forbidden Zone's Eternal Soul-Binding Wolf can be briefly resurrected; the Frost Forbidden Zone is purely countered by the Ouroboros Double-Ringed Serpent Bracelet; the Eternal Night Forbidden Zone is inherited by the Eternal Night God Child and poses no danger; and the Immortal Ancient Tree's Eternal World is the reincarnation of the original body, making it even less likely to have any means of mutual destruction.

Rosen's greatest advantage in exploring the forbidden zones of the universe is that he, as an immortal god-demon, is weak enough.

The interdimensional gate opened, and outside the gate was the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone located in the twelfth star ring.

The energy density of the twelfth star ring is extremely high, so sound can be transmitted normally in the cosmic sky of the twelfth star ring.

Before Rosen even stepped out of the portal, he could already hear a song filled with endless sorrow coming from the starry sky.

The Holy Spirit of Heavenly Sound and the Holy Spirit of Silence were rare companions, but they were companions who eventually turned into mortal enemies.

The songs emanating from the forbidden zone of Heavenly Sound contained the Heavenly Sound Saint's sorrow and anger towards the Silent Saint.

As the Eternal Life approached, it was dragged down and buried with the Heavenly Sound Holy God.

When immortal gods and demons approach, they will feel the same pain and be unable to bear the sorrow upon hearing this mournful song.

If anyone dared to enter the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone, no immortal god or demon has ever emerged alive.

Therefore, no immortal gods or demons occupy the Tianyin Supercluster, and even the nearby superclusters are forbidden zones.

Because the songs of the Heavenly God could spread through the Eternal World to the Origin Dark Sea, those Origin Beasts could not withstand such songs and committed suicide one after another, so that the dead Origin Beasts attracted even stronger Origin Beasts.

Conservative estimates now suggest that the primordial dark sea corresponding to the Tianyin Supercluster contains three eternal primordial behemoths.

These highest-level primordial behemoths are already capable of traversing endless void and autonomously reaching the cosmos.

Therefore, the nearby superclusters have been destroyed and repaired many times.

The endless cycle of releasing eternal-level songs over countless years must have consumed an astonishing amount of eternal essence.

However, the songs emanating from the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone have not weakened to this day, relying on what the primordial life left behind.

What exactly it is, the Book of Destiny and Creation cannot clearly see in the Destiny of the Heavenly Sound Holy God.

However, Rosen was certain that it was far more precious and powerful than the Eternal Soul-Binding Horn.

Rosen released the Doomsday Ark and sat on the bow deck, maneuvering it towards the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone.

The unfolding realm of the Creator isolated all singing, and soon the Doomsday Ark had traversed light-years to enter the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone.

Even though he had done everything he could to take all kinds of defensive measures, he still lost consciousness in that instant.

When I came to my senses, I heard a joyful and pleasant sound.

This is not the song of intelligent life, but a perfect symphony composed of the pure sounds of nature.

Upon hearing the song, Rosen instinctively understood that it was the voice of the universe's will.

The will of the universe is also the will of nature, dispersed within all things, driving the natural and harmonious development of all things. All things respond to the will of the universe by emitting natural sounds, together forming the earliest natural symphony of the universe.

The universe was so beautiful at this moment that even an evil god would be freed from all evil thoughts upon hearing this joyful melody.

Could it be that the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone relies on the joyful melodies of nature to captivate all who venture into it?
With this question in mind, Rosen opened his eyes.

It wasn't that he didn't want to use his eternal will to perceive, but rather that after losing consciousness upon entering the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone and then waking up, he discovered that he had lost all his extraordinary powers, as if he had degenerated into an ordinary mortal.

Therefore, he can only see and perceive his current environment by opening his eyes.

Rosen's pupils contracted slightly; what he saw was not natural harmony.

On the contrary, what we saw was destruction and despair.

The torn sky was burning, the earth was reduced to scorched earth, and all things in nature were being burned in the flames of destruction. Golden torrential rain poured down from the torn sky, as if the sky was crying, perhaps from pain, or perhaps from the sorrow of the inability to extinguish the flames.

As Rosen witnessed these scenes of world destruction, the joyful music of nature in his ears also disappeared.

Instead, a natural lament of despair and pain appeared. Listening to this lament, he felt endless pain and despair. He instinctively understood that this was the lament of the cosmic will and all things on the eve of the death of the cosmic will, during the destruction of the universe.

Rosen walked desperately toward the burning flames, feeling the world's pain vanish into nothingness in the inferno.

However, the next moment he came back to life, his eyes closed again, and he heard the beautiful sound of a joyful melody.

Rosen opened his eyes, saw the truth of the world again, heard the mournful symphony of nature, and then committed suicide by self-immolation in despair.

So the situation is quite clear: either become blind and listen to nature's joyful music forever in the darkness.

Either open your eyes and listen to nature's lament, burning yourself in despair, and then endlessly reincarnating.

They can neither die nor live, trapped in the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone for all eternity.

Rosen tried every possible method and made every effort to achieve his goals.

However, there is no way to regain even a trace of extraordinary power, and no way to escape the torment of the two symphonies in a cycle.

Finally, having no other option, he had to admit defeat and close his eyes again.

Immersed in the joyful music of nature, at least one doesn't have to endure the torment of pain and despair.

Rosen thought he would live like an ostrich, until one day someone could destroy the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone from the outside.

However, as time went by, he no longer knew how many years he had been in the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone.

Rosen suddenly realized that the joyful melodies of nature were becoming increasingly unpleasant to listen to.

This feeling is like listening to a song you really love on repeat, only to find it increasingly annoying and unpleasant with each listen. Naturally, the melody is still perfect and beautiful, but you've listened to it so many times that you're numb to it and can no longer resonate with the song.

Rosen seemed to be deep in thought; naturally, he would tire of listening to joyful music.

Conversely, what if the natural lament, upon repeated listening, produced the same effect? ​​In the endless cycle of despair, this became Rosen's only glimmer of hope.

He forced himself to open his eyes, and then he found that after being washed by the lament of nature, listening to the joyful melody of nature sounded much better. It was like getting tired of a song and then playing an even less favorite song; in comparison, the song he disliked suddenly sounded good again.

So it's quite clear that there are three paths ahead.

The first path involves listening to the main joyful melodies of nature on a loop, enduring some pain in exchange for prolonged joy in the darkness.

The second path is to persist in listening to nature's joyful melodies and see what changes occur when disgust reaches its extreme.

The last resort is to keep listening to nature's lamentations and see if one day change will bring hope.

Rosen chose the last path because he discovered that the last path could extinguish the eternal will.

Although he now only possesses the physical strength and cognitive abilities of an ordinary person, and cannot even perceive his own spirituality, he can sense that under the torment of the natural lament, the time it takes for him to self-immolate is increasing.

At first, he couldn't help but self-immolate after only a few seconds, but now he seems to have lasted for an extra second.

Consciousness is the foundation of eternal will; the stronger the consciousness, the stronger the eternal will.

Rosen repeatedly self-immolates amidst the destruction of the universe, enduring pain and despair while waiting for hope to arrive.

From initially finding the natural lament unbearable, to the brief numbness after enduring it countless times, to empathizing with it and projecting one's own consciousness onto it to feel the pain of the universe's will, until finally a sudden enlightenment occurs.

The will of the universe is not lamenting its own death; the natural lamentation also conceals a compassion that it could not hear before.

At the very moment this realization dawned on him, Rosen did not perish in the flames this time.

He saw scenes unfold from a godlike perspective amidst the flames, like watching a slideshow.

After the birth of the universe, the initial universe was not a balloon-like void, but a physical world like the ancient gods.

This world is not big; the original universe was only thirty million miles in circumference.

But back then, even a blade of grass growing on the earth would be considered an immortal, extraordinary material in today's world.

Although the nascent universe is small, its world-level and world-intensity are terrifyingly high.

In the beginning, there was no intelligent life in the universe. Until more and more plants were born, one day the spirituality of all things gathered together to form the world will. The nascent world will was like a blank, ignorant infant.

It is unknown how much time passed before the world's will gradually matured.

The world's will, for reasons unknown, felt lonely and conceived the idea of ​​creating life.

By controlling the world and nature, the world's will consumed its own power to create a batch of life.

These were the original, primordial lives. In the beginning, the primordial lives revered the world's will as a mother. The mother's love and filial piety filled the world with laughter and joy, and the joyful music of nature was born at this time.

However, as the endless years passed, the wisdom of primordial life grew stronger and stronger in its interactions with its kind.

The world's will remained unchanged, but the primordial life, with its infinite life and ever-growing power, gradually changed.

All the primordial life forms traversed every corner of the world. They grew tired of even the most beautiful things and found even the most melodious natural music jarring. They even grew weary of the world's will for care. The primordial life forms, like children who had grown up, entered a rebellious phase.

Primitive life longed for the world to become bigger, for more freedom, and for to leave the world and see what lies beyond.

The will of the world responded to this desire, and the world transformed into the primordial universe and began to expand. The will of the world transformed into the will of the universe, and primordial life had a much larger living space. The power that originally moved mountains with bare hands weakened as the world expanded, but became the ability to tear through the void with bare hands.

The expansion of living space and power gradually caused the hearts of primordial life to swell as well.

The primordial life began to demand more and more from the cosmic will until the cosmic will, which had been indulging the primordial life, could no longer meet their needs. The primordial life, which had become accustomed to unconditionally meeting their needs, began to feel dissatisfied with the cosmic will.

As time went on, discontent grew, and some of the original life forms transformed from resentment into hatred.

What happened next was obvious. The will of the universe could not meet the needs, so the primordial life forms forcibly plundered. Although a very small number of primordial life forms stood on the side of the will of the universe, the vast majority of primordial life forms began to gradually hollow out the universe.

Until finally, the will of the universe was killed, and the universe also came to an end at that time.

The burning world that Rosen saw was actually the spiritual world of the cosmic will. The spiritual world that remained of the cosmic will was taken away by a primordial life form, which recorded what the original universe looked like, as well as the joyous and sorrowful symphonies of nature.

The only way to leave this spiritual world is to empathize and discover the compassion hidden within the lamentations of nature.

At the moment the will of the universe dies, what remains is not resentment but pity.

Rosen disappeared in the sea of ​​fire, and the joyful music of nature no longer reached his ears. When he opened his eyes again, he was back at the bow of the Doomsday Ark, less than a second had passed since he entered the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone.

Looking around, Rosen saw corpses floating in the void.

There were the corpses of six immortal gods and demons, and even the complete corpses of two eternal beings.

The moment they entered the forbidden zone of Heavenly Sound, their consciousness was pulled into that spiritual world. If they could not empathize with and understand the compassion of the universe's will, their consciousness would endlessly cycle within the music until it was completely assimilated by the music.

When consciousness completely disappears, the eternal will also perishes, leaving only an intact corpse.

Rosen was able to empathize with and understand that hidden compassion not because he was more powerful than these immortal gods and eternal beings, but because a part of his eternal will was integrated into the heart of the universe, giving his eternal will a trace of the characteristics of the universe's will.

In any case, he survived in the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone.

Rosen released the Starry Sea Ladybug, which transformed into a miraculous starry sea and dragged away the corpses of all the immortal gods, demons, and eternal life.

Only then did they continue to explore the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone, discovering that the entire Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone was completely empty. Everything had exhausted its source to maintain the two musical movements. The reason it hadn't collapsed was simply because the musical movements were now consuming the source of the two worlds of the dead eternal life.

In fact, the Eternal Lifeforms were frightened by the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone, after all, it was a place where two Eternal Lifeforms could be killed silently and instantly.

In reality, if an eternal being dared to attack the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone from a distance, it would be discovered that the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone was already outwardly strong but inwardly weak.

Although it's just an empty shell now, it's still an empty shell of the eternal world.

After Miracle Star Sea finally swallowed up the Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone, Rosen immediately opened the interdimensional gate and escaped in time.

If he had slowed down even a step, he would have been surrounded and killed by the eternal primordial behemoth of the Primordial Dark Sea.

Rosen returned to the Burning Star Palace and entered the mysterious study to take stock of the gains from this adventure.

The Heavenly Sound Forbidden Zone is now just an empty shell; it can only be destroyed to extract cosmic matter.

No Heavenly Sound Source Seed was found, nor was any eternal sacred object of the Heavenly Sound Holy God discovered.

The immortal gods and demons were reduced to empty shells. Not to mention the immortal world, even the very essence of their own bodies had been drained. So, a mere touch was enough to pulverize them into dust. The two eternal beings fared only slightly better, with some parts of their bodies still possessing value.

The greatest gains were the source seeds of eternal life and immortal gods and demons, as well as two eternal relics that had almost fallen in level.

Rosen found no trace of the two musical movements, and just as he was wondering, he suddenly heard a joyful melody.

Following the sound of the music, they discovered that it came from an ancient sacred bell.

At this very moment, the Ancient Sacred Bell is undergoing a transformation, a transformation that transcends the miracle sequence and is difficult for even the Miracle Source Seed to detect.

Rosen's influence accelerated time, and the Ancient Sacred Bell quickly completed its transformation.

[The Bell of Mercy: A Sequence of Miracles]

[Level: Primal]

[Miracle Skill: The ability to perfectly recreate the symphony of nature's joy and sorrow]

[Miracle Trait: Celestial Sound Origin]

It's not that there's no Heavenly Sound Source Seed, but rather that the source seed left behind by the Heavenly Sound Holy God has been integrated into the Ancient Holy Bell.

The Bell of Mercy today has, in essence, transcended eternity.

This was his biggest gain from this adventure. He just didn't know what effect the two melodies would have if released by the Bell of Mercy, whether they would drag his consciousness into a spiritual world centered on the melodies, or have some other special effects.
