The raging sea calmed down and parted on both sides.

Underneath the boundless sea, there lies a hidden array of colorful radiance, resembling an incredibly peculiar shell that blankets the deepest depths of the ocean, emitting an ever-changing splendor of light.

The young girl slowly approached it.

She walked down from the sky, step by step venturing into the ultimate realm of the universe.

As if she stepped into a peaceful night.

The realm of gods.

This is the path that all wise beings in countless universes yearn to reach.

In countless systems of power, it had too many names.

"Gods," "immortals," "the absolute ones," "the language of destiny"... The wise beings had various names for this great existence.

However, all civilizations would use the same vocabulary or meanings to describe them.

Powerful and immortal.

It is God!

No one could resist the temptation to become a god, to become powerful! To become immortal!

That was an incredibly enticing thought that made one yearn for it eagerly!

The common people toiled day in and day out, leading a mundane existence, laboring their entire lives for superficial gains, all while dealing with deceit and treachery.

However, whenever a mortal passes away, their soul effortlessly conforms to the rules and is reborn, soon becoming a new mortal without any trace of their previous existence.

Throughout their lives, generation after generation, mortals could only cyclically follow the laws of an infinite world, continually washing away their traces, yet leaving nothing behind.

Just like the coming of spring after winter, the natural cycle, the cycle of mortals is also a familiar phenomenon.

Mortals simply don’t possess true "life" at all!

The extraordinary ones, however, take it a step further, gaining powers that should not exist during their lifetimes and maintaining the constancy of their souls even after death.

Unless it is their own desire, the extraordinary ones don’t reincarnate as humans.

Because their souls become more unique, they naturally believe that their own lives are real and genuine, unlike mortal lives which they see as mere historical facades and natural phenomena.

The extraordinary ones proudly showed off in front of the mortals, unaware of their own insignificance.

For them, it was.

The so-called mortals and extraordinary beings actually have no essential difference.

The extraordinary beings would call the gods "gods" and even refer to ordinary people without extraordinary powers as "mortals"... but the gods often considered both the extraordinary beings and mortals to be of the same kind.

Mortals and extraordinary beings, there is no difference.

In the end, they were nothing more than prey for the fiercest "monsters" in the infinite universe.

The name of this enormous beast was "Time," "Destiny," and "Law."

Only by transcending it, obtaining immortality, could one become a deity.

The way for "Food" to become a god was to devour the civilization it resided in, swallowing every living being, from the tiniest plant to the mightiest creature, into its perpetually hungry void.

"The Savior of Dark Light" helped the people of Noah build a new civilization, establishing the very first kingdom of "Dark Light." They enlightened the beings, established rules, and gathered the power of faith to become deities.

The Crimson Sovereign, born into World, naturally and inevitably from countless wars and endless bloodshed, born out of despair and pain, almost too numerous to count.

Although she didn’t actively seek to become a deity, those wars and negative emotions undoubtedly served as her ultimate ritual.

"The Anomalous Star" created a system of magic, mastering the mysteries of mystical power, gaining insight into all things, and finally finding the path to becoming a god.

The Ultimate Ritual, is the "collective term" for all the paths to godhood that have existed so far.

Regardless of the means or methods used, to become a deity, it would be considered as having completed the Ultimate Ritual.

However, whether it was Mu Ling or the expression beneath Bai Yan’s cloak, both seemed uneasy instead of at ease, appearing somewhat strange and bewildered.

Nothing happened.

"What’s going on?"

Mu Ling returned to the side of the Savior, feeling puzzled.

Bai Yan remained silent as well. He had very little understanding of the Ultimate Ritual. Could it be that this Ultimate Ritual was fake? Why didn’t Mu Ling become a god?

Was it because the "impact" wasn’t big enough yet?

It is very likely that eliminating the Fantasy Sea is indeed a big deal, but compared to the Ultimate Ritual of other gods, it is still too small.

Or perhaps, this kind of "impact" doesn’t belong to the realm of the Ultimate Ritual?

Shouldn’t have done that.

Bai Yan fell into contemplation. In the first playthrough of the "Babel Tower" game, every time he acquired the first Ultimate Ritual, it was always this one.

However, inside the game, the specific location and description of the Fantasy Sea were actually concealed. It was simply a matter of obtaining the key to successfully elevate the character into a deity.

He had a vague feeling that there was a significant difference between the first and second playthroughs of Babel Tower. Perhaps, there were certain aspects that didn’t match up.

Babel Tower might be a game in the EA version.

Mu Ling was also filled with confusion and bewilderment, and she had some questions she wanted to ask.

[The time was not yet right.]

Although Bai Yan couldn’t make sense of it, he still spoke a riddle to soothe Mu Ling’s confusion.

"Oh, I see now. I was just too eager."

Mu Ling nodded, suddenly realizing.

Indeed, becoming a god was such an easy task, isn’t it?

I still need to wait, I still need to try, but what exactly do I still need...

She was unsure.

In fact, both Bai Yan and Mu Ling were unaware of one thing... What she was going to do next, perhaps it was the final and crucial step.

But he calmly reassured everyone.

[Mu Ling, your final moment will come sooner or later, don’t be impatient. When that time comes, you will make a choice as my sharp blade.]

Afterwards, Bai Yan simply stopped thinking.

He directly instructed Mu Ling to go back, saying, "Disperse."

"Ah, it seems that things aren’t as simple as we thought..."

Bai Yan shook his head gently and looked at the calm sea, where the supernatural phenomena had ceased. He felt that he needed the guidance of Anomalous Star to find answers and piece together the final puzzle to make Mu Ling become a deity.

Next, he had something to do.

A promise that should have been fulfilled a long time ago.

"I have promised for a long time, and now it is finally time to fulfill your wish."

Bai Yan was calm as he exchanged the final piece of the Moon Witch’s shattered fragment.

"Game Tip:"

"New Core Operator, Moon Witch! Obtained!"
