Chapter 521: Go Immediately to Find the Next Woman

The raging sea calmed down and parted on both sides.

Beneath the boundless ocean lay a hidden array of colorful radiance, resembling an incredibly peculiar shell that blanketed the deepest depths of the sea. It emitted an ever-changing splendor of light.

The young girl slowly approached it.

She descended from the sky, step by step venturing into the ultimate realm of the universe. It felt as though she were stepping into a peaceful night—into the realm of gods.

This was the path that all wise beings in countless universes yearned to reach. In the vast systems of power, it went by many names.

“Gods,” “immortals,” “the absolute ones,” “the language of destiny”… the wise beings had various terms for this great existence. Yet all civilizations used similar words to describe it:

Powerful and immortal.

It is God!

No one could resist the temptation to become a god, to become powerful, to become immortal. The allure was irresistible, a thought that filled hearts with yearning.

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

Yet, when a mortal passed away, their soul effortlessly conformed to the rules, was reborn, and soon became a new mortal with no trace of their previous existence.

Through generation after generation, mortals followed the infinite world’s laws, cyclically washing away their traces and leaving nothing behind. It was like the natural cycle of spring following winter.

Mortals simply did not possess true “life” at all.

Extraordinary beings, however, went further. They gained powers that should not exist in a single lifetime and retained the constancy of their souls even after death. Unless it was their own desire, extraordinary beings did not reincarnate as humans.

With their unique souls, they believed their lives to be genuine and real, unlike mortal lives, which they viewed as fleeting phenomena.

Extraordinary beings proudly displayed their powers before mortals, unaware of their own insignificance.

For the gods, however, the distinction between mortals and extraordinary beings was insignificant. To them, both groups were essentially the same—prey for the fiercest “monsters” in the infinite universe.

This enormous beast was called “Time,” “Destiny,” and “Law.”

Only by transcending these forces and obtaining immortality could one truly become a deity.

For a “food chain” to become a god, it had to devour its civilization, consuming every living being—from the smallest plant to the mightiest creature—into its perpetually hungry void.

The “Savior of Dark Light” helped the people of Noah establish the first kingdom of “Dark Light.” They enlightened beings, established rules, and gathered faith to ascend to godhood.

The Crimson Sovereign arose from countless wars, endless bloodshed, and the despair and pain that followed. Though she did not actively seek to become a deity, those wars and negative emotions ultimately served as her Ultimate Ritual.

“The Anomalous Star” devised a magical system, mastering the mysteries of mystical power. Through insight into all things, this path to godhood was achieved.

The Ultimate Ritual is a collective term for all the paths to divinity. Regardless of the means or methods used, completing it meant ascending to godhood.

Perhaps people believed that the process of “ascending from mortal to deity” derived from the power of the Master of Ceremony. In truth, every path to ascension could be viewed as a kind of ceremony.

The shared characteristic of the Ultimate Ritual was the need for an act that was immensely influential—something capable of altering the course of civilization.

However, determining the “specific circumstances” of such acts was exceedingly difficult. If power alone were enough, any strong individual would simply destroy the world to ascend.

At this moment, Mu Ling didn’t need to contemplate. She had already realized what her Ultimate Ritual was.

Reaching the deepest depths, Mu Ling discovered the true nature of the brightly colored “shell.”

“Fragments of the Mind Dimension.”

The Fantasy Sea was wild and perilous because of these fragments.

Mu Ling drew her knife. She inhaled deeply, letting the night sky thousands of miles away add a touch of color to her blade.

Swish!

In the next moment, the night descended.

The sky over the Fantasy Sea turned dark. The colorful light shell began cracking under the night’s power. As the cracks spread, white light erupted, eventually shattering the “shell” completely.

In the silence that followed, a tremendous noise emerged, engulfing the heavens and earth with radiant white light.

Across the world—in the Tree City, the Ring City, the Giant Hive, the Kingdom of Dark Light, and the Air Alliance—all the supernaturals were shaken.

They looked to the skies, sensing an unprecedented change.

Especially in the coastal city, astonishment filled their voices.

“Do you feel it?”

“The Fantasy Sea—it’s calm!”

“My goodness! How is this possible?”

Atop the Ring City, the Crimson Sovereign gazed toward the Fantasy Sea’s location, silent for a long time.

“Ultimate Ritual…”

It wasn’t just him.

Across the realm, the five gods of the living Rainbows directed their attention to this event.

Bai Yan, observing from afar, grew nervous. Yet, to his surprise, the Rainbows refrained from intervening and calmly watched.

As the light faded, the ocean bottom revealed itself—no longer covered by fragments of thought and dimension, but by ordinary land.

Mu Ling had erased the Fantasy Sea’s uniqueness.

From then on, nations and cities could build “tunnels” and “transit stations” on the sea, connecting across the world.

In a few years, globalization was expected to take shape, giving the people of Noah the chance to form a unified civilization—a vital step for progress.

Yet, despite the achievement, Mu Ling and Bai Yan remained uneasy.

Nothing had happened.

“What’s going on?” Mu Ling asked, confused, as she returned to Bai Yan’s side.

Bai Yan stayed silent. His understanding of the Ultimate Ritual was incomplete.

Could the ritual be a failure? Was the impact insufficient? Or perhaps it didn’t align with the ritual’s requirements.

He pondered. In the first playthrough of the “Babel Tower” game, this was the initial ritual to elevate characters into deities. However, the Fantasy Sea’s specifics were concealed in the game.

Perhaps something was fundamentally different between the game’s first and second playthroughs.

Mu Ling, equally bewildered, turned to Bai Yan for answers.

[The time is not yet right.]

Bai Yan spoke these words to reassure her.

“Oh, I see. I was just too eager,” Mu Ling said, calming herself.

Becoming a god was never simple. She needed to wait and try again. Yet, what was left to do?

Unknowingly, her next action would become the decisive step.

Bai Yan reassured her once more.

[Your final moment will come, Mu Ling. Do not be impatient. When the time arrives, you will serve as my sharp blade.]

With that, he dismissed her, instructing her to leave.

“Ah, it seems this isn’t as simple as we thought…” Bai Yan murmured, gazing at the now-calm sea.

To solve the puzzle, he needed guidance from the Anomalous Star.
