I am the Arcane Archer, and all my skills are self-created.

Everyone's hearts sank to the bottom.

Could it be... that even he has no solution?

Are they really just waiting for death to come?

"Hahaha... It's useless, Li Wu!"

A grand consciousness, brimming with irony and ecstasy, reverberates throughout the universe.

It was the voice of the "trader".

"I admit, you are special. You are the most successful of all my experiments."

"You even possess a sliver of the power to challenge me."

"But so what?"

"In this world I created."

"I am the absolute ruler!"

"I want it to give birth, and it will."

"If I want it to be destroyed, it has to be destroyed!"

"You can't stop me!"

"Yeah?"

Li Wu looked at the sky, and his smile grew even wider.

"You seem to have misunderstood something."

"What?"

There was a hint of doubt in the "trader's" voice.

"Who told you that...?"

Li Wu spoke slowly and deliberately.

Am I still in your world?

The words fell.

Li Wu gently swung the hand that had snapped its fingers downwards.

Click!

A terrifying roar, as if the entire universe had shattered, resounded.

Followed by.

Under the incredulous gazes of everyone.

Above them was a clear blue sky.

It shattered like a giant piece of glass, piece by piece.

It revealed the pure, dark expanse behind the sky...

nothingness.

No, it's not just the sky.

Earth, mountains, oceans...

The entire planet Earth, the entire solar system, even the entire universe...

At this moment, everything began to collapse and shatter.

Like a magnificent dream.

The moment I awoke, it all vanished like a bubble.

"No! This is impossible!"

The "trader" let out a terrified scream.

"My world! My experimental field! Why... why did it crash?!"

"What exactly did you do?!"

It cannot understand.

It had clearly already initiated the final "purification process".

Why is it that its own world is being "purified" instead?

"It's very simple."

Li Wu's voice echoed in this shattered void.

"Do you remember the great gift I gave to the One Who Returns to Oneness?"

"That explosion that annihilated the laws of nature?"

"You think I was just trying to trick him?"

The "trader" suddenly realized something.

"No...you..."

"That's right."

Li Wu smiled.

"The real purpose of that explosion was to blast a tiny, insignificant back door into the wall of your world."

"A coordinate system that only I can perceive."

"Just now, when I snapped my fingers..."

"I have used that backdoor to bring my own world, the nascent universe left behind by Erling."

"It has undergone a fundamental...replacement with your world."

Li Wu's words were like the sharpest sword.

It pierced the lofty core of the "trader's" consciousness.

"So, you're starting the purification process now."

"It's not me that's being purified."

"It's yourself."

"You deleted your own save file with your own hands."

"No!"

The "trader" let out a desperate roar.

But everything is already beyond repair.

The false universe it created.

It initiates its own purification process.

It vanished completely into nothingness.

Along with its consciousness, along with its existence.

It was wiped clean.

……

After the last fragment of the world disappeared into the darkness.

Everything fell silent.

Hua Zitong, Gu Yuan, and the others were shocked to discover this.

They were suspended in an endless, pure darkness.

There is no up or down, no left or right.

There is no time, no space.

Only eternal solitude remains.

"Where...are we?"

The sound of chasing the wind trembled slightly.

"Outside."

Li Wu's voice came from not far away.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

Li Wu was standing quietly in the darkness.

Behind him was a small sphere of light emitting a soft white glow.

It is slowly rotating.

The ball of light looked very small.

However, Hua Zitong and the others could sense a familiar aura emanating from it.

There are mountains, rivers, and life...

That was their home.

Blue Star.

No, it's a completely new one, modeled after Earth, created by Li Wu himself...

New world.

"I stole our world from that fake box."

Li Wu looked at them and said.

"Now, we are free."

"But we also lost everything."

"We became the only drifters in this endless void."

Everyone fell silent.

They looked at that small world radiating white light.

Then I looked around and saw the boundless, despairing darkness.

My heart was filled with mixed feelings.

Did they win?

It seems like we won.

They defeated the Unifiers, and even the "mastermind" behind the scenes was killed.

But they lost too.

Lost everything.

They lost the universe they depended on for survival.

They became a group of homeless vagrants.

"So... what should we do next?"

Hua Zitong asked softly.

There was a hint of confusion in her voice.

"What's next?"

Li Wu turned her head and looked at the small, newly formed world behind her.

There was no confusion or despair in his eyes.

Instead, it burned with an unprecedentedly intense light.

He smiled.

"Next..."

"Let's create."

"Let's create a brand new universe that belongs to us."

"Go create one, without a operator, without a script, full of infinite possibilities..."

"A truly new world."

After saying that, he reached out and gently held the white ball of light in his palm.

Then, facing the endless darkness ahead.

He threw it forcefully.

"Go."

"Let this lifeless void witness the birth of the first miracle."

The white orb of light traced a magnificent path in the darkness.

Then, it began to expand.

It began to emit light and heat.

Light appeared.

It got hot.

Time and space were born from the singularity of the explosion.

Matter and energy are formed in the evolution of laws.

A brand new universe, brimming with boundless vitality.

Under the watchful eyes of Li Wu and everyone else.

Its scroll slowly unfolded.

And Li Wu stood at the center of this new universe.

He looked at his companions, who had been given a new lease on life.

Looking at that vibrant, blue planet at the center of the universe.

He smiled.

He was laughing very happily.

He knew his story wasn't over yet.

No, it's just the beginning.

He and his companions will be in this brand new world, a world that belongs to them.

To write an even more magnificent chapter...

legend.
