Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

"[Rejoice! For when the blood and flesh of all men become one with the liquid gold—]"

"[You will eventually understand... what unity is.]"

Yan Huan blinked, carefully considering the meaning of those words.

If his language skills are good, would Seneos want to kill all the Sky Tribe members?

Immediately, Yan Huan looked at Feng Jin, whose gaze was blank.

But if they had really killed them all back then, where did the Sky Clan on the ground come from?

Upon hearing this news, the older believers were much more at ease than the new believers.

Their idol, Aegler, had been killed by Seneos, and the world had long since collapsed.

"Ha... I had long anticipated this day."

The old believer slowly rose, his face grim:

“But this is not your fault, Seneos. Your only mistake…”

"It is because we have placed too many extravagant expectations on [people]."

What happened next was even more brutal.

Sorapis and Lunebis, much like Yan Huan throwing monsters after he had just ascended the Sky Fortress, mercilessly tossed struggling, screaming survivors into the scalding pool of gold...

The scorching pool water surged and made a lot of sizzling sounds, which were mixed with the eerie howls.

Chapter 1468 Very Close to God

"Lunebis, Sorapis, you..."

Looking at the outrageous and extremely cruel scene, Feng Jin felt a chill run down her spine. She slowly turned around and looked at the two expressionless winged beasts.

“Yes.” Sorapis nodded. “We acted as Seneos’s executioners.”

"On that day, countless children of the sky fell from the dome of the Eye of Dawn and Dusk and were swallowed by golden lava."

"They prayed to the sky their whole lives, but their piety could not buy them wings to fight for their lives."

"..." Yan Huan stared at the two winged beasts and couldn't help but think of something.

Seneos ordered the killing of the Sky Clan, so wouldn't these two winged beasts be considered enemies of Wind Violet?

However, Yan Huan didn't find her actions particularly egregious.

Most of these people are indeed beyond redemption; throwing them down to be swallowed by liquid gold would make their deaths more artistic.

Feng Jin felt uneasy:

"If this is the true face of history, then the merging of Seneos and Aegler... wasn't it also to save the world from natural disasters?"

Lunebis nodded slightly. "After touching the fire, Seneos not only understood the Titans' fear, but also saw their indifference."

"Aigler never craved the faith of mortals; the establishment of the Sky Civilization was merely the result of the Son of Man acting on his own initiative."

"The armillary sphere, which was given to the Sky Children by the Titans in mythology, was actually an invention of mortals themselves."

Sorapis added:

“Thénos, utterly disillusioned with humanity, began to yearn for the indifference of God.”

"She sent me and Lunebis to the earth to find the forbidden technique that is said to be able to merge the souls of humans and Titans."

Feng Jin was shocked. "Did Teacher Xia's alchemy really have such an effect a thousand years ago?"

"Seneus, who handed down the death sentence to the Son of Heaven, Seneos, who abandoned her humanity..."

"If this is the path she chose, then whose long-cherished wish are we, her ancestors and I, ultimately upholding?"

On Earth, the legend of Seneos continues.

The descendants of the Sky Clan all praised Yang Lei Knight as a great hero and a fearless person.

So here's the question: Didn't Sorapis and Lunebis kill all the mortals back then?

Then why did those Sky Children ancestors who fled still praise such a Seneos and write a false history?

“Seneus, who abandoned humanity… Am I and the ancestors of the Courtyard of Dusk truly descended from her bloodline?” Feng Jin felt lost.

Clearly, Seneos's disappointment made it impossible for her to unite with a mortal and have children.

Under the influence of the power of confusion, fragments of memories reappear.

That was a woman kneeling and begging for mercy.

She said devoutly:

"Great Seneos, I beg you to spare this lowly life!"

“I have never hurt anyone… The punishment you imposed out of anger is far too harsh on an innocent person like me!”

Sorapis stood behind the woman and said in a deep voice, "The time has come, mortal. You should embrace your destiny."

"Wait! No!" The woman quickly stood up and moved away from the two approaching winged beasts.

"Valkyrie...please allow me to speak with you!"

She pointed to her injured palm and said loudly:

"Look, do you see that?"

"Golden blood is seeping from my wounds!"

“That’s right, I am also a Golden Blood… I and Lady Seneos are both chosen by the oracle!”

Upon hearing this, Lunebis examined the woman's blood and confirmed, "She did not lie."

The winged beast raised its head and asked the celestial mural:

"Seneus, what do you intend to do with your own people?"

On the celestial mural, an eyeball symbolizing Eigler slowly emerges.

It made the sound of Seneos.

"Golden Descendants..."

"You are no different from others."

Seneos's voice was devoid of emotion.

"You were once a son of the sun... When your people, taking advantage of the Titans' favoritism, used every means to oppress other races, did you ever stand up for the weak?"

Faced with the questioning of the God of Fusion, the woman lowered her head in shame.

"I don't."

Seneos continued to question:

“After Aegler fell, you changed your faith and worshipped me as your new god.”

"When your colleagues turn their blades on old believers who refuse to convert... have you ever reached out a helping hand to them?"

The woman shook her head. "I...no."

Seneos was still questioning:

"When the oracle of creation reached the ears of all living beings, it guided the Golden Descendants to become heroes of this shattered world..."

Have you ever overcome your inner weakness and answered its urgent call?

The woman's voice choked with emotion, "I...couldn't do it."

Upon hearing this, Seneos spoke with an impassioned and condescending tone:

“Look, Golden Descendant…you are no different from those despicable people.”

"Wait, this isn't right, is it?" Yan Huan's eyes widened.

"That's illogical."

"This woman didn't help the People of Sunlight harm the People of Rain, nor did she help the new believers oppress the old believers. Isn't hiding aside the standard choice for an ordinary person?"

"No one can be as awesome as Seneos."

There are differences in combat strength among the Golden Bloods.

For example, if it weren't for Ika, Kazesaki wouldn't be able to fight at all.

In Yan Huan's view, as long as she doesn't harm anyone, she is a normal citizen.

But by then Seneos had gone mad; she believed that anyone who didn't stand up and be a hero like her was a despicable person.

If locking oneself in and staying indoors during times of war is a crime, then how many people could meet Seneos's standards?

“My judgment is just; only molten gold can purify your original sin…” Seneos’s voice remained cold.

“…Wait, Lady Seneos!” The woman looked very aggrieved.

"Please allow me to say a few more words in defense of my cowardice!"

"Your divinity does indeed make mortals appear incredibly ugly... But the Son of Man has walked this earth for millions of years, experiencing all the hardships of life and witnessing all the shameful flaws..."

"Even so, we still built magnificent city-states and a flourishing civilization!"

Even when we are often mired in a quagmire of malice, we still struggle to crawl on...

"Because aside those filthy vices, as mortals... resilience is also a collective virtue of ours!"

Her gaze grew increasingly resolute.

"Even if it means risking everything I have and everything I don't yet have... I must kneel before you and beg for mercy, to fight for a sliver of hope for my survival..."

"And also to prove to you that mortals have the ability to redeem themselves!"

Faced with the woman's words, Sorapis said in a deep voice:

"To admit your own cowardice so righteously... it seems you have completely abandoned your dignity."

Seneos, high above, looked down at her and remained silent for a long time.

"You said you're willing to mortgage everything you don't yet own?"
