Immortality: Starting with a grave, I'm invincible when burying corpses.

The newly formed ocean stretched all the way to the border with the Nine Domains, reconnecting with the oceans of the Nine Domains.

Beneath the vast ocean, countless lives are quietly conceived, growing and taking shape in a chaotic flow of time, becoming part of the starry sea.

Thus, the Meteor Sea, unique to the Starfall Continent, was born.

High in the heavens, the deity in blue robes lowered his gaze, taking in the myriad aspects of human life.

He witnessed the farce in the palace, and he also witnessed the faith in the mountains and fields.

His gaze swept across the world from west to east, pausing slightly as it passed over Qing'an Prefecture, lingering for a few more seconds above the prefecture.

In the very end, the phantom of the god quietly vanished.

A grand transformation has begun.

……

Five Spirits Wonderland.

In the center of the towering temple, a figure in blue robes quietly appeared.

The moment Mu An appeared, the temple master noticed his presence.

Mu An did not hide his presence; he simply stood openly in the center of the temple, in front of the celestial pool, a hundred meters away from the statue of the deity.

A deity dressed in a five-colored robe walked from the end of the hall, his fair feet stomping on the ground, creating ripples of color.

When she was about twenty meters away from Mu An, Wu Ling Xuan Nu stopped and stared at the figure in front of her with her five-colored eyes.

Even after meeting the person she had always wanted to see, and the being that gave birth to her, the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden did not say what she had always wanted to say.

He stood there quietly, about twenty meters away from Mu'an, looking at his "father" in the true sense of the word.

Because He clearly remembered that neither His other self nor the great deity before Him allowed Him to address Him in that way.

As a deity born of faith, the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden would not do anything meaningless, nor would she disobey the Creator's decision.

Light and shadow fell from the sky, illuminating the figures on the banks of the fairy pool.

The True Lord in green stood before the Immortal Pool, as if he could see the past years and the traces of another person through the water.

Long, long ago, there was a girl who sat on the edge of a fairy pool, playing a melody that only she could hear with the water in front of her.

As the sun began to set and starlight streamed down from the dome, illuminating his blue robes, Mu An, standing before the Immortal Pool, turned and glanced at the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden twenty meters away.

"I've never asked you before, do you remember who I am?"

The question was very strange, but the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden still chose to answer truthfully.

Before Mu An, who created Him, the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden could not lie.

"You are the great Five Elements True Lord, a majestic being beyond this world, and also my father. You created me, but the Mysterious Woman is incompetent and has never been able to gain your recognition."

An expected answer.

Amidst the chaotic interplay of light and shadow, Mu An appeared before the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden without her noticing, just a step away.

A hand with distinct knuckles rested on His head and tidied His hair, which had never been messy.

A gentle, warm aura wafted over, leaving the emotionless Five Spirits Mystic Maiden frozen in place.

This was the first time Mu An had been so close to Him.

There was no anger, nor any sudden attack, but rather, like an ordinary father, he combed His hair.

"You know what? My child really doesn't like to take care of herself. Her hair is always loose and messy, and someone has to watch over her and style it for her every day..."

"It's funny, but no matter how other people comb her hair, they won't say anything. But if I do it for her, that little one will find all sorts of faults, and no matter how well I do it, she'll only give me a 'not bad' rating..."

The calm voice carried a hint of desolation, leaving the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden at a loss for words, frozen in place.

The Five Spirits Mystic Maiden could not understand why Mu An, who had treated her badly and had not visited her even once in hundreds of years, was so gentle today.

"Father, you..."

Hearing the unfamiliar address and seeing the familiar face before him, Mu An shook his head and explained in a gentle tone.

"In the Nine Realms, most children refer to their parents as 'father' and 'mother'."

"But in the world I first lived in, there were also many children who preferred to use more affectionate names."

"Most of these are just nicknames that people are used to. Only in formal occasions are titles like father and mother used."

"In the culture of the Nine Realms, this is easily seen as a lack of respect, but in the world I first lived in, it was more often seen as a sign of closeness between family members."

"As a god who came into being later, you may not know this, but in the very beginning, my thoughts were always dominated by the original world, and I regarded the civilization of the Nine Realms as a kind of dross."

"The little one was deeply influenced by me and naturally formed similar values. Her ideas were incompatible with those of the Nine Realms at that time."

Looking at the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden whose pupils were slightly shimmering, Mu An gently patted her shoulder.

"Given the little one's personality, she most likely told you not to use terms like 'father' in front of me... Unfortunately, you can't understand human emotions, nor can you understand what she meant."

"If you had used a different way of addressing me when we first met, perhaps my attitude wouldn't have been so terrible."

Under Mu An's gaze, the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden lowered her head, avoiding Mu An's eyes.

"As you said, Miss Ling'er did indeed tell me these things, but as a deity born of faith, I cannot go against the will of all living beings."

A simple sentence silenced the atmosphere in the hall. After a long while, Mu An nodded slightly.

He silently observed the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden, staring at her from head to toe, but never using his higher-dimensional perspective to observe her.

After watching for about half an hour, when even the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden felt a little uncomfortable, Mu An's voice finally rang out again.

"The temple is deserted. I now live in Stargazing City on the Starfall Continent. If you have time, you can come over for a meal once in a while."

Xuan Nu never raised her head; she kept her head down, seemingly looking at or thinking about something.

As a deity created by Mu An, the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden could not possibly refuse Mu An. However, faced with Mu An's invitation, the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden, with her head bowed, could not give an answer for a long time.

This attitude softened Mu An's gaze even more. He untied the folding fan from his waist and hung it on the Five Spirits Mystic Maiden's waist.

"You don't need to think too much. I know you're not Xiao Ling'er, and I also know you've developed human emotions."

"If you're unwilling to give me the last treasure that Little Ling'er left with you, it doesn't matter."

He paused, then continued.

"You can give it to me whenever you feel it's appropriate."

"As for now, just consider it as keeping me company and having a chat..."
