The universe, beginning to split!

As soon as the voice fell, Nu Yi's mind completely shattered.

Had this being already seen the entire universe directly splitting in the future?

He... was actually talking about the future!

And had even shown a similar Dao diagram of the future!

Her heart beat rapidly, and she felt her body rising, gazing at that Dao diagram, lush with branches and leaves, representing the branches extending from them, the Saints. Not only were they already destined, but even Saints in the distant future who would attain Dao in the universe were almost destined...

And who exactly was this mysterious ancient being before her?

For him, this was not the first time this had happened. He had long ago witnessed similar scenes unfold, one world-shattering cosmic era after another. In fact, it wasn't the first time he had bid farewell to "Yi Mang"; there had once been another... Yi Mang!

He witnessed history unfolding. He had seen numerous ancient epochs, communicated with Saints from various eras, conversed with them, and also bid them farewell...

"He has not only seen the first Saint similar to Yi Mang, who split heaven and earth, making this his first time bidding farewell to a master..." Her heart pounded. "But now, bidding me farewell, or conversing with me, isn't it also not the first time?"

She looked at another Dao diagram, at a certain position, where there was a being similar to herself, who had established the destiny for all sentient beings, much like today's situation!

"Could it be that you... are also not seeing me for the first time?" Her pupils fully dilated.

"It is the first time I see you, yet you and I are not meeting for the first time," Xu Zhi said, sipping his tea. "Year after year, flowers are similar; year after year, people are different."

Many thoughts flashed through Nu Yi's mind. I am just myself, but in the distant past, there were Saints similar to me who attained Dao in this aspect of rules, establishing the destiny for postnatal beings.

Xu Zhi continued to calmly drink his tea, waiting for the shocked Nu Yi to compose herself before speaking again. What he showed was the Dao diagram of the greater universe outside. After all, in similar cosmic eras, the rules for attaining Dao were largely similar. In the true greater universe, a first Saint, similar to Yi Mang, had also appeared in distant history, delivering the first cut to split heaven and earth, and other aspects were similar...

He thought to himself:

"I am narrating this as the God of Destruction."

"After all, the God of Destruction is the aging Creator God, who has witnessed all of the universe's history, standing at the end of the universe, but only descended into this cosmic spacetime from the distant future because he was observed."

This aging Creator God arrived in this spacetime precisely to destroy the greater universe, thus creating the current universe to replace it.

"If he truly is the Creator God, then he must have been born from the very beginning of the universe... and indeed witnessed the universe's dawn, an era similar to Yi Mang's."

"He has also seen Saints from various eras, so naturally, I have seen them... because I am the God of Destruction."

Xu Zhi was very calm now. After all, he genuinely intended to become the true God of Destruction and do what the God of Destruction should do, so these words were not abrupt, but rather self-evident.

At this moment, Nu Yi's expression was dazed. After a while, she recovered and asked, "Is everything in destiny already predetermined?"

"Not everything is predetermined."

Xu Zhi sipped his tea, gently put away the Dao diagram, and smiled, "The grand trend is hard to change, but minor details can be altered."

"The grand trend is hard to change?" Nu Yi repeated softly.

"This is not destiny, nor is it an unalterable fate. Rather than predestined fate, it's more like a simple inevitability of development," Xu Zhi said, looking out at the tea garden through the window.

"Look at that flower; its growth has a certain inevitability... breaking through the soil, stretching out its seedling, branches, tender leaves, flowers... everything has an order; it always develops in the way most suitable for itself."

Nu Yi followed his gaze, seeming to grasp something, lost in thought.

"You, an ancient being from a prehistoric universe, are already... an Eleventh Order? Or even higher?" Nu Yi asked softly and respectfully. For her, this was indeed the most reasonable guess. After all, only in that prehistoric universe could one witness all of that. Only there could one see beings similar to Yi Mang, and a similar cosmic history. For this great being from primeval chaos, this was not the first time.

She only suspected an Eleventh Order, not the vast will of the chaotic universe, the Creator God. Because if there truly were a Creator God, He would be unconscious, incapable of intelligent self-thought... and the "Creator God" indeed had no self-awareness, but was the omnipresent Heavenly Dao.

"You must be Eleventh Order, transcending the universe's constraints," she said.

"No, I am not Eleventh Order..." Xu Zhi smiled faintly. "Eleventh Order beings are sentient, self-aware creatures. I am not even a living being. It's just that due to certain special circumstances, I lost a powerful authority, which is why awareness was born. Perhaps after some time, when that former authority returns, I will lose awareness again."

Not a living being? Losing authority, and then after some time, if the authority returns, awareness would be lost again?

"Then wouldn't it be best for you to remain like this?" Nu Yi asked, as losing self-awareness upon the return of power would be equivalent to death.

"This is fate. My return is also for the future of this universe, for the sentient beings of this world. I do not resist," the figure said with a gentle smile, like a spring breeze, exuding an extremely kind and natural mystique.

She still wanted to ask more questions, as she had many. But Xu Zhi no longer answered, merely looking at her calmly and saying, "You should understand that once you know all this, you must not reveal it. The destiny of the universe cannot be altered by individual choices."

Nu Yi nodded and replied, "I understand! I will not speak carelessly to the Saints outside. That would alter the inevitable historical development of the universe, just like a flower that naturally breaks through the soil and grows into its most natural, reasonable, and perfect form. But once twisted... it will grow unnaturally and become undesirable."

"For the rest of your life, you may stay here and pursue the Dao," Xu Zhi said, looking at her calmly.

"Here, to pursue the Dao with you?" Nu Yi was a little excited; this was extremely tempting for her. "May I settle all my affairs and then return? I only need one day."

"Of course," Xu Zhi replied with a smile.

"Then, what should I study?" Nu Yi asked again.

"Celestial Sound."

Xu Zhi took out a glass bead, gently displayed it, and smiled, "Cultivate the great Dao's musical score, and open up the primeval chaos."

But to her astonishment, the bead instantly shattered, undergoing a Big Bang, and a splendid vortex of stars expanded, with a cosmic bloodline vaguely forming.

"Creation!"

A rush of blood surged to her head, and her mind buzzed. Before, she had been thinking: without self-awareness initially, awareness born by chance, and not Eleventh Order, then what exactly was this being? But at this moment, gazing at this handsome, ethereal man, calm and serene, with one hand behind his back and the other holding a universe, this unforgettable, vast mythical scene, she instantly understood everything.

So...

He was the Singularity of the Great Dao.

He was the universe itself... the Creator God!
