Xia Zuo looked up, nodded in satisfaction, and lightly patted the glass cover of the miniature culture jar, praising it:

“Very good, Melina, it just covers Starry Night City and Starry Night Castle. The Creation Smoke we have stored is enough for my clone to put the Creation Crystal back in its place.”

...

At the same time that Starry Night City was protected by the Creation Smoke, in the outer temple of the Eastern Continent, the August family, using the pretext of an emergency in the war, expelled all temple mages who were not family members from the temple. The vast outer temple was unusually empty and desolate tonight.

Bovaru stood in the Hall of Creation, before whom stood the towering Crystal of Creation.

The elders of the August family formed a circle around the Creation Crystal, and everyone raised their hands, releasing all their attribute-less energy with all their might.

Dozens of beams of light shot from the ground into the sky, forming a focal point directly above the Creation Crystal. The magical energy spread outwards like waves, with dense, circular ripples following one after another.

The magical light flashed rapidly, and a huge teleportation channel took shape. Its appearance was a smooth white plane, like a transparent flat glass suspended above the Creation Crystal.

Standing beneath the Creation Crystal and looking up at the entrance to the teleportation tunnel, you can clearly see the view on the other side of the tunnel—a panoramic view of the icy landscape and the black smoke from the volcano.

The August family placed the other end of the teleportation portal directly above the giant volcano.

By sending the Genesis Crystal into the teleportation portal, the gravity at the other end of the portal will allow the Genesis Crystal to fall naturally into the crater, thus blocking the entire source of the Genesis Smoke.

Bovaru turned his head slightly, looked at the family members beside him, and nodded to them.

Together, everyone increased their energy output, and dozens of beams of light suddenly thickened and brightened. The entrance to the teleportation channel shone with the light of a guiding spell, illuminating the massive creation crystal.

Five minutes later, after the August family had increased their energy output several times, they were finally able to barely manage to cover the Genesis Crystal with the light of the traction spell.

A muffled rumble echoed from the Hall of Creation, like a heavy city gate filled with water being lifted by a hinge mechanism. The Creation Crystal detached from the ground and slowly moved upward, gradually drilling into the teleportation channel that fit perfectly.

When the Genesis Crystal was halfway into the teleportation portal, the burden on the August family suddenly lightened. Gravity on the other side of the portal took over the responsibility of supporting the Genesis Crystal, pulling it forcefully into the portal.

The teleportation spell was interrupted, and thuds of people falling to the ground echoed as members of the August family collapsed, panting heavily and pale-faced.

Bovaru barely managed to maintain his balance with his golden palm, and his right hand trembled as he reached into his pocket and pulled out a secret communication ring.

All eyes were focused on the clan leader's hand, and everyone held their breath, waiting for the message from the Creation Volcano.

About half a minute later, just as the members of the August family couldn't help but whisper among themselves, the clicking sound of a pick suddenly rang out, interrupting the whispers in the Hall of Creation.

Bovaru glanced down at the message on the secret communication ring, an irrepressible joy appearing on his tired face.

He raised his head, opened his arms, looked around, and shouted loudly:

"All personnel, board the ship immediately! Now! Immediately! The Genesis Smoke Layer has been shut down! We must board the Alchemy Ship within 3 minutes! Reach the Alchemy Satellite's cruising orbit altitude in 5 minutes! Leave this planet within 10 minutes!"

A deafening cheer erupted from the crowd, who unleashed their teleportation spells and left the Hall of Creation amidst flashes of white light, heading towards the alchemical spaceship hovering in the night sky.

Soon, only Bovaru remained in the Hall of Creation.

He glanced one last time at the empty Hall of Creation, a hint of lingering affection in his eyes.

He reached out and traced the spell patterns of the teleportation spell.

The next second, he paused his spellcasting and began casting another spell.

A transparent bubble was summoned by Bovaru, and the scene of the Western Continent appeared inside the bubble.

In the video, Xia Zuo's tower has already taken off from the test flight platform of Storm Mountain Range, disguised as a black star point in the deep starry sky, and is flying straight into the sky.

Bovaru switched the view in the bubble, pointing the camera towards Starry Night Academy and Starry Night City.

As always, Starry Night City was bustling with activity. Even long after sunset, the crowds on the commercial street and the brightly lit cityscape were still a sight to behold.

Nothing seemed amiss at Starry Night Academy; Starry Night Castle overlooked Starry Night City from its elevated position. Inside the brightly lit alchemy room, the academy's students were attending their evening class.

Bovaru nodded in satisfaction, then quickly cast a teleportation spell with both hands and left.

Above the Tower Scholars' territory, higher than the sea of ​​clouds, ten alchemical ships, fully loaded with important members of the Temple, have been hovering for a long time.

The August family, the Wildhammer royal family, the nobles of the Crystal Remnants, the Arcane Mage Guild, and other influential members of the Temple gathered on the alchemy airship.

When Bovaru arrived late to the ship's broadcast room, and when his figure appeared in the banquet halls of each alchemy ship via the ship's communication device, all the alchemy ships erupted in high-pitched cheers.

"Gentlemen," Bovaru gestured downwards, indicating that the Temple members watching the speech should remain silent.

"The great journey of the new temple is about to begin. We will carry the hopes of the people of this planet to a distant land far from strife, in search of a free paradise where we can live for a long time."

Bovaru raised his right arm, palm down, pointing it at the red button in front of him.

With just a gentle tap, the alchemy spaceship's thrusters will be at full capacity, propelling the spaceship free from the planet's gravity and vertically upwards into space, heading towards the boundless sea of ​​stars.

"Now, let us witness together this great moment for the new temple!"

Bovaru pressed the button decisively, and the alchemy ship immediately began to vibrate noticeably.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the broadcasting room and banquet hall, the silvery-white clouds under the moonlight were receding into the distance, and the deep starry sky hung down like a curtain.

...

"Bovaru has set off."

On the terrace of the Starry Night Castle tower, Xia Zuo looked up at the night sky obscured by the smoke of creation and the vine-covered dome.

The alchemy ships inevitably generate powerful waves and explosions upon takeoff, enough to echo throughout the Tower Scholars' territory.

If nothing unexpected happens, at this moment, a small number of people inside the temple should have noticed the strange phenomenon in the sky.

They would stand by the window and watch the firelight in the night sky, trying their best to observe the alchemical spaceship in its cloaked state.

When they entered the Hall of Creation and saw that it was completely empty, they gradually realized that the Creation Smoke Layer might have been shut down.

Xia Zuo turned his head to look behind him, his gaze landing on the No. 12 vest - Turret Mage:

"Inster Heguman, your time has come. Now go and save the Temple from the impending chaos. Merlindora and Rexor will help you gain command of the Temple army."

"Yes, Master." Vest number 12 bowed and flew towards the teleportation room inside Starry Night Castle.

After Rexor retrieved half of Inst Heguman's consciousness from Grandabech, Shazo absorbed this half of consciousness, transformed it into a template of Inst Heguman's personality, and put it into Vest 12's body, turning the other party into a cyst-like organism with some of Inst Heguman's personality traits and past memories.

"Melina, have Natalie get ready." Shazo glanced at the little golden chaste tree on his lap:

"Once Kamasiberlein and Bovaru enter outer space, we will immediately restart the Creation Smoke."

"Mmm!" Little Golden Vitex nodded vigorously, rolled up a leaf, clenched it into a fist, and waved it a few times, full of fighting spirit and pride, saying:

They never imagined we'd stay on this planet!

Xia Zuo touched the glass cover of the culture jar and glanced at the people in disguise standing beside him:

"Prepare for battle! Attack all the Star Demons that have descended upon the Western Continent. Lure them to the southern ocean of the Western Continent, far from Star Night City, and delay their discovery of the Vine Dome as much as possible."

"Yes, Master." The group of vests led the special forces team waiting in the corridor and left. They flew out of Starry Night Castle, led the Blood Element Servant Legion outside the city, and came to the outside of the dome through the secret exit of the vine dome. They then swaggered into the starry sky.

“Crestor, Letunia, Cynthia…” Shazo’s gaze swept over his colleagues in the pure-blood mage camp, “While I’m restarting the Creation Smoke, Starry Night City is in your hands.”

"No problem." "We will protect it."

Xia Zuo patted Anru'er's hand and looked at Beatrice, "Take good care of her, teacher."

"Do not worry."

Xia Zuo closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and focused on controlling the No. 18 Death Apostle of Light and Darkness, which was hovering near the Pillar of Creation.

...

The area around the volcano today is a scene of devastation.

When the Creation Crystal sank into the volcano and fell into the lava, it triggered a violent volcanic eruption. Fiery red lava gushed out and flowed down the surface of the volcano, colliding with ice and snow to create a misty white fog area, leaving behind rapidly cooled black soil.

The Pillars of Creation are gone.

Apart from the distorted light and shadow caused by the high temperature, no more black smoke was seen rising from the crater.

After the last plume of black smoke emerged from the crater, it was diluted by the surrounding air as it rose and dissipated far from the primordial smoke layer.

After the primordial smoke layer lost its replenishment, it visibly thinned and faded, making the starlight in the sky even more dazzling, and many faint stars could now be seen clearly.

"What a lively universe..."

Xia Zuo looked up at the starry sky and seemed to see the birth and death of all things in the world, and felt the loneliness of living beings—compared to the universe, the lifespan and strength of any living being are insignificant.

Xia Zuo arrived here disguised as the Death Apostle of Light and Darkness, with the aim of using the "Fair Duel" ability he possesses to shield himself from all those who might interfere with his movement of the Creation Crystal, including the demons.

He ignored the figures flying through the sky and the temple mages who were drawn by the empty space in the Hall of Creation. He flew directly into the crater and arrived above the Creation Crystal located at the top of the magma layer.

As Xia Zuo placed his hand on the Genesis Crystal, intending to unleash his attribute-less energy, he heard the message from his cheat system…

An angry outburst rang out:

"Golden touch!!! Why didn't you say you were related to the Genesis Crystal sooner!!!"

Chapter 71 The Purifier of Supernatural Powers

In the [Future.6xx] timeline, each timeline's Bovaru August tells "Shazo" about the chaotic container in the magma and the Genesis Crystal.

These things were no longer a secret after the August family left the planet, and "Shazo" easily obtained all the information about the Creation Crystal from Bovaruna.

According to Ribera Augusta in the future timeline, the origin of the Creation Crystal is quite strange.

Archaeologists can often find information about spirits, demons, and monsters in many ancient documents, folk tales, and top-secret documents.

It is evident that humans were the dominant species in ancient times.

After humanity's repeated ascents into space were corrupted by alien demons, races such as alien demons and monsters gradually increased, eventually leading to a situation where the Temple and the Church of the Alien Demons were in opposition.

Throughout the entire evolution of human civilization, the creation crystal has only appeared in the last two eras.

The Golden Vitex tribe says that the Creation Crystal is the original inhabitant of this planet, but because it was buried deep underground, it was not discovered by Vasaksat.

The August family did not agree.

In their view, the Creation Crystal should be an alien object, and it was not placed on the planet by Vasaksat, but rather it landed here on its own.

The properties of the Creation Crystal are incompatible with this world.

It has no flesh and blood, it is not a mineral-based non-living entity, nor a grass-based self-generating entity, nor is it a mythical creature like a spirit.

The strangest thing is that the Creation Crystal can be accessed.

The so-called "visit"... Xia Zuo reached out and placed his hand on the golden-white creation crystal, and sighed silently.

He should have thought of that sooner.

When two distinct things appear in the same place, it indicates that there is a connection between them.
