The 46645st cycle.

"My worthless student has actually gone down such a fanatical path?" Professor Anacharsagoras's voice was filled with both sorrow and authority.

"Bai Mo of the Ai Li Mi Xie, just like you have corrected his countless wrong calculations, go and completely correct the answer he 'wrote wrong' right now!"

"Don't worry, Professor." Bai Mo's lips curled into a nostalgic smile. "After he's finished making the changes, I'll personally bring him to you and see him obediently accept your scolding."

The 71243st cycle.

“Bai Mo,” Lady Aglaia’s voice was gentle yet firm, “bring him the golden garment that ‘Romance’ has so carefully woven for him. It should be his glory and warmth, not tainted by darkness.”

“Yes, Ms. Aglaia.” Bai Mo nodded. “I will not let him indulge in that lonely purple-black again, or… his terrible ‘yellow on top, purple on the bottom’ aesthetic.”

The 80023st cycle.

(Countless expectations and gazes speak louder than words.)

The 95575st cycle.

(Belief accumulates, and willpower is forged like metal and stone.)

The 108641st cycle.

The voices of the Golden Descendants, transcending the boundaries of time and reincarnation, resounded in Bai Mo's ears before he embarked on his next journey:

"Savior! Please take all our hopes from this cycle of reincarnation and go to save the next Onpharos, and that lost White Evil!" (Chorus)

"If what rises ahead is a black sun that devours the light—then without hesitation, cut it down!" (Chorus)

"If you have a companion walking alone in the wind and snow—warm him with your own heart!" (Chorus)

"If this world eventually comes to an end—then let our stories, our laughter, our tears and our hopes be turned into songs, sung to the next dawn!!!" (The chorus reaches its climax!)

Bai Mo walks through endless cycles of reincarnation, his gaze always fixed on the direction of dawn.

His face no longer bore the heavy burden, but rather showed understanding and determination:

"Salvation is not just a result, but also a process!"

"Bai'er! Laigus! Iron Tomb! Nanuk!!!"

"When the people of Onphalus repeatedly choose hope, choose mutual assistance, and choose to believe in tomorrow even in dire straits—"

"That so-called doomed fate has already been shattered!!!"

A familiar yet unfamiliar sigh echoed behind Bai Mo.

"As expected... this is a romantic story unlike any other, Camerslana."

Bai Mo didn't turn around, but just chuckled lightly and continued walking forward.

Lai Gushi and Xi Lian were quietly gazing at the report coming from the scepter.

【>>> Eternal Return #108641: Brief Report】

[Progress of the "Destruction" Equation Calculation: 99.89%] (Status: Calculation has stalled for unknown reasons)

[Unknown Equation Calculation Progress: 60.12%] (Status: Stable Calculation...)

The cold, flowing light of the data shone on Xi Lian's face, and her tense expression relaxed slightly.

Although the progress of "destruction" has reached an alarming level, its crucial stagnation and the speed of calculation of another equation undoubtedly mean that variables still exist and hope has not been lost.

However, Lai Gushi, standing to the side, remained completely unmoved.

It showed no annoyance or regret at the stalled calculation of the "destruction" equation and the progress of the calculation of the other equation; it simply stated in its unchanging, emotionless "voice":

"Your Excellency, allow me to remind you of an ancient proverb: 'He who travels a hundred miles is only halfway there at ninety.' The last leg of the journey is often the most difficult and crucial."

His "gaze" seemed to pierce through the data, casting its gaze into a deeper void: "Only a mere 100,000 calculations, less than one percent of the prediction..."

"This grand calculation may have been initiated by your will, but its final outcome may not be as you expect."

Xi Lian turned to Lai Gu Shi, trying to decipher any hidden information or intention from its cold face.

But beneath that calm lay an unfathomable void, from which she could not glimpse anything.

Lai Gushi offered no further explanation, no smugness, no threat, and no hints.

It extended an invitation to "Xi Lian" to continue, in an almost elegant manner, like inviting a guest to continue watching a play that was not yet over:

"Your Excellency Xi Lian, if you have any doubts about this, why not... continue to observe with me? The answer may lie in the trajectory that follows."

Why did the scepter δ-me13 seek to understand the "First Cause of Life"? And why was it abandoned by that star god? And now... why has He turned His gaze upon it once more?

"He... glanced over again?" Xi Lian's expression was somewhat solemn.

The 108642st cycle.

Suspended Arena.

At this moment, the arena, which should have been bustling with people, was completely empty. Only two figures stood in the center of the huge circular arena, as if the whole world consisted only of the two of them.

"Your actions...are truly despicable, savior!"

Wan Di 108642 stood with his back to Bai E, his deep voice breaking the deathly silence. His towering figure, like a mountain, exuded an unquestionable kingly majesty.

“Savior…” Bai E repeated the title softly, a subtle ripple seeming to stir in his deep blue eyes at the familiar address.

"Even after 108,642 reincarnations... myriad enemies... your way of addressing me has never changed."

Chapter 185 Ten Thousand Enemies: You want me to fight Bai E with a "Conflict"? Are you kidding me!

"Hmph." Wan Di snorted coldly, without turning around. "You should be grateful to have an older brother who understands you and is willing to go to great lengths to prove your worth."

"It was he who revealed to us the truth behind the cruel cycle of reincarnation, proving to us that even on your seemingly brutal path, a glimmer of 'salvation' still remains. Otherwise..."

His voice suddenly turned cold, "Given your desire to slaughter your comrades and trample on hope, I might prefer to call you—an executioner."

"Bai Mo?...Brother?" Bai E murmured these two words, a complex expression flashing across his face.

"Further words are useless, Savior." Wan Di finally turned around slowly, his gaze piercing as he stared directly at Bai E.

"You used the Black Tide to lure away most of my Suspended Peak City's forces, and now you appear before me alone. Surely you didn't just come here to catch up with me?"

“Now that Bai Mo has told you the truth,” Bai E stopped dwelling on his emotions, his eyes returning to their cold and focused state.

"Then you should naturally understand that becoming a demigod and carrying the fire seed... was a wrong choice from the start."

He raised his hand, and the greatsword "Dawn's Invasion," symbolizing the dark dawn, appeared in his palm, burning with ominous flames.

"Since you claim to have experienced 108,642 reincarnations," Wan Di showed no fear, instead taking a step forward, his fighting spirit surging as if it were tangible.

"Then you must also know that, facing a demigod who wields the power of 'Conflict,' you have absolutely no chance of peacefully taking this spark."

His steps were firm as he walked towards Bai E, his aura rising steadily, and the entire Suspended Arena seemed to tremble under his footsteps.

"Step forward and fight me to the death, Savior!" Wan Di roared like thunder, taking the initiative to challenge.

He stood firm, arms outstretched as if embracing the entire battlefield, his voice solemn and reverent, like a declaration of an ancient oath:

"I, son of Gordok, demigod of 'Conflict,' salute you—"

"With the countless scars I bear, I will add luster to you, the savior of the world!"

Bai E nodded. "This place is too cramped for our battle. For the sake of fairness, let's head to a wider battlefield!"

After speaking, Bai E's aura surged to its peak! Brilliant divine light burst forth from his body, and golden divine blood flowed and formed on his body like boiling lava, raising his power to an unprecedented peak!

"In this full glory, I salute you!" Bai E, having unleashed his second form, spoke with a voice as resounding as a great bell, echoing through the void.

Looking at the imposing Bai E before him, Wan Di's eyes finally ignited with the long-lost, fiery passion of a warrior.

"I can't ask for it!"

The battle erupted!

Wan Di's arm muscles trembled, and a golden spear comparable to a giant tower instantly materialized, piercing through the air with a piercing shriek, aiming straight for Bai E's heart!

However, Bai E calmly raised "Dawn's Invasion." Dark purple flames ignited from the sword.

"Hey—!"

There was no stalemate, nor any explosion. The incomparably powerful golden spear was easily cleaved in two by Bai E, from tip to tip, turning into countless scattered specks of light.

"Tit for tat!" Bai E raised "Dawn's Invasion" high, the tip of the sword pointing straight to the sky. The sky over the entire Xuanfeng City suddenly darkened, as if it had been forcibly dragged into the night.

"From the embers of the past... we will usher in the dawn of the future!"

Rumble——!

The sky was torn apart! Countless meteorites burning with black flames, trailing long streaks, poured down like a final judgment!

At the center of that meteor shower, a massive asteroid with a radius exceeding several thousand kilometers cast its shadow over the entire Suspended Peak City.

It possessed absolute mass capable of destroying everything, and slowly pressed in! The air groaned, and even space itself was slightly distorted.

"This power...it's truly terrifying..." Wan Di looked up at the catastrophic scene, but his face showed no fear; instead, a fanatical fighting spirit appeared. "But in 'conflict,' has never feared a disparity in strength!"

He made a grasping motion with both hands, and a golden giant sword over a hundred meters long appeared out of thin air—it was the Titan's signature weapon from "Conflict"!

The sword is engraved with countless epic tales of war, and its mere presence fills the surrounding air with the auditory illusion of clashing metal.

"All nations are annihilated, all armies reduced to ashes!"

Roaring fiercely, the Greatsword wielded its godlike weapon, charging directly at the largest asteroid. Along its path, the greatsword transformed into a golden storm, shattering and exploding smaller meteorites in its wake!

Countless fireballs exploded in the sky, like magnificent fireworks, each containing destructive power.

But the meteorites were endless, and the largest asteroid was still slowly pressing down, its gravity already causing the buildings in Suspended Peak City to begin to crumble.

Just when Wan Di chose to try to shake a tree like a mayfly.

"Here, the 'sky' is nowhere to be seen! The 'ocean' is nowhere to be found! The 'earth' is nowhere to be found!"

The voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable power.

The moment the words fell, the meteors in the sky carrying the force of destruction, as well as the huge asteroid that had already approached and blocked the view, all seemed to be paused, and were all eerily suspended in mid-air.

Immediately afterwards, their form of existence began to disintegrate, transforming into countless flowing streams of "0" and "1" data, and like erased code, silently dissipating into nothingness.

"Bai Mo, you still came." Bai E's eyes flickered slightly. He could feel the force that was forcibly rewriting reality. It was powerful and unfamiliar, similar to the "law" authority he knew, but also different. It was more direct and more domineering.

“Bai E, after trying hundreds of thousands of times, you should understand by now,” Bai Mo’s figure suddenly appeared beside Wan Di, whose body was half-buried in the ground after taking a hit from Bai E earlier.

He bent down, reached out and grabbed Wan Di's shoulder, and with a seemingly casual pull, he "pulled" this demigod of "Conflict" out of the ground, the movement as easy as if he were just helping up a fallen child.

"You cannot kill any of your comrades and take the fire in front of me."

“Speaking of which… you’ve persisted for over a hundred thousand times…” Bai E murmured. The long and lonely journey represented by that number felt heavy even to him.

"Well done... Savior." Wan Di steadied himself, wiped away a trace of golden blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at Bai E with a complicated expression.

Then, he made an unexpected move—he took the initiative to peel the "Conflict" flame, which symbolized conflict and struggle, from his body and handed it to Bai E without any hesitation.

"Take it, Savior. The demigod of 'Conflict' always accepts defeat."

Chapter 186 This chapter is inspired by the 12 talismans from Jackie Chan Adventures.

Watching this scene, Bai Mo fell into a brief moment of contemplation. A bold, subversive idea flashed through his mind like lightning.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Bai E, his eyes flashing with determination.

“Bai’er, perhaps… the method of what we have been pursuing as ‘re-creation’ needs to be changed.”

"Change?" Bai E suppressed the burning pain emanating from the restless fire within his body and patiently asked in return.

He knew Bai Mo well; he would never have brought it up at this moment unless he had a well-developed idea.

"The reason you chose to seize the fire and accelerate the cycle is that if a cycle is too long, you worry that you won't be able to find and complete the handover with the next 'Bai E' before your will is completely burned out." Bai Mo pointed out the core contradiction incisively.

"However, the time and energy costs of persuading people and gaining their trust through words are too high."

"Moreover, the fire within you is constantly burning, eroding your reason and making it difficult for you to maintain focus and patience for long periods of time."

"Ultimately, these factors often force you back to the old path of violent seizure."

Bai E remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement.

“So…” Bai Mo’s voice carried a guiding force.

"Why must the spark be submitted to that ethereal 'Creation Vortex'? Why must becoming a demigod necessarily mean personally absorbing and fusing the spark, and bearing the consequences?"

Hearing this, Bai E narrowed his eyes slightly, seemingly catching a glimpse of a possibility hidden in Bai Mo's words. "Bai Mo, you mean..."
