The Infinite Dragon God Cannot Find Silence

"So that boy eventually gained sovereignty over the sun?"

"The situation is a bit complicated..."

"Is the situation a bit complicated, or have you made it a bit complicated?"

"..."

Bai Ye's direct interruption caused Di Shitian's lips to twitch again.

"Well, while I do check in advance to see what developments they might encounter, I don't interfere every time..."

He offered an explanation, then sighed.

"In short, judging from the results, Izayoi and his team succeeded."

"Ah, is it..."

In other words, Izayoi Sakamaki gained sovereignty over the sun.

This is a natural conclusion; even without confirmation from the observatory, one could guess it. Asking again is just a matter of reassurance.

This means that the entire Nameless team, as the 'proxy party', has qualified for the main competition—and that's not all.

In fact, everyone present understood what Indra meant by "a bit complicated".

The struggle of the candidates for the original text to construct the original text actually began long ago, and their choice in the face of solar sovereignty also represents the path of humanity they have constructed.

In fact, if you take shortcuts, there's no such thing as complicated.

If you seize what you need and kill what you need to sacrifice, everything will eventually fall into place.

However, human history is not a problem that can be solved simply by reaching the end. Rather, the real focus is on what truly begins after reaching the end.

This marks a new era for humanity.

If the water that flows naturally is polluted, it will cause endless troubles. The research and application of new energy is the most important step for mankind to control the planets and move towards the stars. Only by taking this step steadily can we ensure a smooth future.

This refers to the 'complete' human history that Orpheus and others sought.

Only such 'completeness' is sufficient to become the cornerstone of order in the pantheon of gods that complements human history.

Izayoi should be able to deduce these things to some extent, but whether he knows the truth or not is not important, because whether he knows or not, the path he, as a pioneer of the future, will likely not change.

This is why the Heavenly Army ultimately chose him and the Nameless One behind him, rather than His Highness and others, or even placed bets on multiple parties.

Even considering only the purity of their achievements and the stability of humanity's future, humanity's future can only be determined by the original candidates. Even if the Star Candidate Sun Wukong and the Dragon Candidate Leticia continue their missions, the Heavenly Army might still rank them after Izayoi.

Whether it's Canary or Izayoi, although neither of them can be said to be obedient, their paths are definitely the most in line with the interests of the Heavenly Army.

"By the way, are you alright staying here?"

After a moment of silence, Bai Ye spoke again.

"The outside world is just as important as this place. Don't abandon your post just because you're ashamed to face anyone."

"Of course I know that?!"

While desperately trying to find a way to heal his head, Indra replied, on the verge of tears.

"However, with Pori Devi looking after things over there, plus your Winged Race, there shouldn't be any major problems for now. After all, didn't I only become like this because of Kurima's affairs that you had no one else to deal with?"

Despite saying this, Indra was already preparing to get up and return to work.

The human history chosen by the Celestial Army is not solely centered on heroes.

Izayoi is a 'hero who paves the way for the future', responsible for opening up a wide enough path, but to build and construct on this path, it still depends on the abilities of humankind itself.

Currently, the main focus is still on the research of particle bodies themselves.

There absolutely cannot be any major mistakes in this regard... Although the Heavenly Army will generally stand by and observe in accordance with principles, they are not so stubborn as to refuse to intervene even when on the verge of failure. In fact, whether it is the Sandbox or the outside world, the Heavenly Army is prepared to take over everything immediately if any situation arises.

While that might not lead to a perfect ending, it would at least prevent a complete collapse.

This is a choice made out of necessity, but we cannot let our guard down because of it.

Knowing this, Indra had no choice but to grow a wig and put it on.

Bai Ye opened his mouth, but didn't say anything more.

Unlike Indra and Orpheus, he was even less able to tolerate the indiscretions of humanity, and therefore found it even more difficult to accept the current situation that he could not control.

This is the difference between gods, stars, and dragons. Gods and humans are more interdependent and more attached to each other. If this becomes extreme, it can even lead to a dystopian situation. Although Indra is not extreme, he is definitely not immune to the common problems of gods.

Bai Ye couldn't say much about it... anyway, the people behind her didn't say anything either.

But she still felt a strange sense of empathy for the lonely figure of Di Shitian as he turned and left.

After thinking for a while, she also stood up without resting for too long.

"Then, I'll go check on the game stage first."

"Hmm, keep it up."

With a twitch at the corner of his mouth, Bai Ye also left Orpheus and the others with a back view similar to that of Emperor Shitian.

The three remaining people then closed their eyes and stopped speaking, shutting out everything around them.

Meanwhile, on the game's stage—the continent of Atlantis—layers of dark clouds mysteriously began to gather.

This is an unusual phenomenon that has frequently occurred since the King of the Killer Race prophesied that Gaia's last child would soon awaken. It is similar to the sudden emergence of vitality and the sudden formation of a day-night system.

But hidden within this layer of dark clouds is a darkness that even the Heavenly Army cannot perceive.

—A storm sweeping in from the end of time looms over the entire land.

"Really, what a sleepy child. Even for an old woman like me, calling two years 'soon' is too much of a stretch."

A black storm swirled around my body.

"Although I don't know if those guys from the Heavenly Army did something or if you were also waiting for the right opportunity... In any case, it seems that both the limit and the timing are about right."

The volcano roared.

—The pulse within the body of the demon king named Gaia Moko is now clearly visible.

The largest stellar breath in human history is about to be unleashed.

Chapter 789 Past and Present Candidates

"Boom—"

The volcano spewed out hot air, and the earth, which had only been slightly shaken by the previous battle between the Heavenly Army and Azdakha, was now trembling violently.

Bai Ye looked up at the sky and shielded his eyes from the sunlight with his arm.

The light source that appeared in this sky two years ago is considered a sign of Gaia's final child's awakening. It not only simulates the changes of day and night, but its light is also dazzling even in the daytime.

Presumably only solar sovereignty could achieve this effect.

There are not many solar sovereigntyes not under the control of the Heavenly Army, and even fewer whose whereabouts are unknown. However, although the true location of this rare one cannot yet be traced, it is not difficult to deduce the identity of its holder.

It's difficult to pinpoint the exact individual; it might be held by Gaia's last son, or it might be held by the King of the Killer Race, but it's undoubtedly the work of the enemy on that side.

Choosing Atlantis as their stage was the Celestial Army's decision, but the unique environment of Atlantis played a crucial role in the decision. Moreover, the Celestial Army's enemies also longed for this stage.

The fact that Gaia's last offspring, belonging to the killer race, has autonomously simulated the environment of Earth on the continent of Atlantis is proof of this.

Perhaps Tianjun's decision was influenced by his opponents, but discussing that at this point is meaningless.

Both sides have made deployments on this island, and they have tacitly refrained from openly sabotaging each other. The Heavenly Army has not even made a move against Gaia's last son, allowing this two-digit demon king to sleep soundly under their noses for two years.

In other words, both sides hope to decide the winner here.

That alone is enough.

Bai Ye lowered his hand and looked away from the dazzling light.

For her, this war was more than just a job.

The sovereignty of the sun is now much more important to her... but in fact, Bai Ye still regards those twenty-five star rights as her own.

She can give away her own things, or she can tear off a twenty-fifth from the original twenty-four and distribute it, but others cannot take them away.

She'll get that thing on her head back sooner or later.

--- Using this excuse as a reason to help humanity is not bad.

Bai Ye smiled bitterly to herself. Compared to Orpheus and the others, she actually agreed more with Di Shitian's approach.

However, Orpheus hadn't explicitly opposed this approach, so there wasn't any problem with it.

The fact that Bai Ye was sent to handle the Star Sovereignty War as the organizer may also reflect the tacit understanding between the two sides.

The earth was still shaking, which made the primordial celestial spirit click her tongue in annoyance, and casually stomp her slender little legs on the ground.

The next moment, the mass of the universe silenced the entire continent.

"That feels much better. What's with all that constant shaking?"

Bai Ye pouted in annoyance and hit his palm with his fan.

Just then, a whistle came from the side.

"That's great, to see such an amazing scene as soon as I get back."

"Well, I really made a fool of myself."

Hearing the voice beside him, Bai Ye's initial agitation eased somewhat, and he smiled as he looked in the direction from which the voice came.

A golden-haired monkey, resembling a young girl, was leisurely walking towards her.

"How could that be? I already found this thing's constant shaking incredibly annoying. It's all thanks to you that I was able to make it stop. I can't do that right now."

"Temporarily—?"

Bai Ye covered his face with his fan and squinted his eyes with great interest to examine the Great Sage Equal to Heaven.

"Hoo hoo, it doesn't seem like an exaggeration. If you hadn't given up your mission, you might be the most accomplished candidate among the original candidates—perhaps even perfect."

"That kind of mission is better off not being there."

The Monkey King snorted unhappily.

Unlike humans and gods who are born pure, Sun Wukong, a candidate for Celestial Spirit, and Leticia, a candidate for Dragon, are not pure enough as Origins. Although Leticia has the potential to become a Dragon, she is not a Dragon at all in her current essence, and Sun Wukong is only a half-Celestial Spirit.

The Monkey King's life is filled with an inevitable test: to kill and eat his younger brother, who was also born from a planet, in order to complete the path to becoming a pure Star Spirit and a true candidate for the Primal.
