The Purgatory Calamity-Chapter 995 - 954: The Light of the God of Light

"Ugh!"

Gaze after gaze suddenly converged on a mass of intense light.

That was the huge light source enveloping Luo Hongyan’s Divine Body!

It abruptly released an incomparable strong light, so dazzlingly bright amid the vast darkness.

It kept expanding, within which Luo Hongyan remained still in the form of the Heaven Clan, her back sprouting pair after pair of wings white as snow, crystallizing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Her feathers were rapidly crystallizing!

Within those crystallized feathers, many tiny points of light, like ignited stars, floated and sank, creating an air of mystery and depth.

A holy, great, and boundless Divine Aura was dissipating from the crystal-like feathers.

"Heaven and earth, starry sky, the universe, should be filled with light."

Luo Hongyan spoke, her voice dream-like.

Her every word turned into the pure essence of light, echoing in the starry space around her, resonating in the hearts of all creatures.

Even piercing through the gray Misty Sea, through the Boundary Wall of the "Netherworld Prison" world, and into the minds of the Misty Sea Life.

Those troubled by worldly power, emotions, those with bleakness or oppression in their hearts, even gods, saw light scattering in their minds.

The shadows in their hearts, their inner troubles, were gradually cleansed by this light.

Everyone’s heart’s Sea of Souls was becoming clearer, their souls were purified, giving rise to an immense sense of relaxation and freedom.

"The God of Light has cleansed the filth from my heart, making my Soul Body shine bright."

Feeling this goodness, the Misty Sea Life naturally looked up at the sky.

Their gaze, passing through the Boundary Wall, fell on the mass of intense light, believing it to be the only god worthy of their trust, the recipient of all their fantasies and expectations.

Pang Jian suddenly changed color.

The Power of Faith that should have been rushing toward him was vastly dwindling; he couldn’t feel the worship and reverence from the Misty Sea Life.

The Power of Faith from the Misty Sea Life, which could transform into Divine Consciousness, was supposed to help him control this Star River, to help him wield the twelve Divine Weapon Sharp Blades and the Divine King’s Skull.

Now, he was losing this extraordinary substance.

"God of Light!"

In the various "Netherworld Prison" worlds, people started to chant Luo Hongyan’s name uncontrollably, worshiping instinctively.

Thus, massive streams of the Power of Faith shifted from Pang Jian to Luo Hongyan, countless invisible specks of light, regardless of the spatial constraints, pouring into Luo Hongyan’s body.

Initially, it was Luo Hongyan’s wings; now, Her massive Divine Body also began to crystallize.

"Whoosh!"

The light She emitted became even more sacred, inviolable, allowing no darkness or filth to taint it.

The giant intense light that wrapped around Her rapidly refined and condensed into a crystalline blade of light.

This unsullied and holy God of Light, with an unmatched beauty of all the lands, calmly looked at the Black Phoenix, and at Pang Lin standing on the forehead of the Black Phoenix.

"In these years of your silence within the Misty Sea, I have found every fragmented piece of the Light’s Origin scattered throughout the universe,"

Luo Hongyan said indifferently.

At these words, a sliver of shock flashed through the cold black eyes of the Black Phoenix.

"Light’s Origin!"

"All assembled!"

Fu Ya and Tianyu also changed expressions.

As masters of the Outer Star River, these two naturally knew what it meant for extraordinary beings like themselves to acquire a Tao source that resonated with their own essence.

Divine King!

Once a Sovereign refined and fused with their corresponding Tao source, they were destined to ascend to the Realm of Divine King!

Fu Ya only needed to enter the Netherworld Prison and fuse with that Sea of Souls to unobstructedly elevate herself to the Devine King Realm.

Tianyu, if he could find the spatial Tao source, could also step directly into the heavens and ascend to the next realm.

Luo Hongyan, as the God of Light, had silently gathered all the fragments of the Tao source of light and integrated them into her Divine Body.

Could she not have already become a Divine King?

Why did she persistently refuse to break through, to not appear invincible in the form of a Divine King and reverse the disadvantage in the starry skies?

What was she waiting for?

"You could have ascended to the Devine King Realm long ago, yet you chose not to do so. What are you waiting for?" Pang Lin asked softly, his expression extremely solemn, "To take on a stronger form? Do you wish to merge light and darkness into one and, with the help of the Tao source of light, become a Divine King who has integrated both?"

"I was waiting for you to appear, waiting to annex your Dark Extreme Path, so that after I become a Divine King, I will be even stronger, to assist me in not vanishing in the future," Luo Hongyan nodded slightly.

She paused for a moment, then added, "So many Divine Kings have disappeared without a trace, never to be seen again in the world. I do not wish to become such a Divine King."

With that, a brighter light burst forth, radiating in all directions from her crystallized Divine Body.

This time, with the enhancement of the "Tao source of light," the endless darkness dissolved.

The entire "Chaos Star River" suddenly shone bright!

In the eyes of the Misty Sea Life, the star river beyond the heavens lit up dozens of times brighter in an instant!

Aside from the region where the Black Phoenix resided, there was no longer any corner of darkness in the outer starry sky.

The light spread by the God of Light quickly expanded to the entire starry sky, transforming the "Chaos Star River" into her very own Divine Realm of Light, completely under her control.

"Hiss! Hiss hiss!"

The ancient and eternal laws of order were forcibly altered by Luo Hongyan’s will into invisible micro-light chains.

"Whoosh!"

The stars, the moon, including the darkened sun, all under Pang Jian’s command, released a strong light at that moment.

Pang Jian and the "Chaos Star River" suddenly lost their connection, no longer able to manipulate the stars with Divine Consciousness, unable to peer into hidden corners or secretly probe the minds of living beings.

"Sovereign, once the Tao source is melted, naturally one can become a Divine King!"

A sudden enlightenment arose in his mind.

Pang Jian’s spirit changed, sensing the spread of light to the borders of the Star River, and it began seeping into Yan Hao’s skull.

Moments later, that light source also crept toward the nine suns and the twelve Divine Weapon Sharp Blades still under his control.

Luo Hongyan, intending to use her Divine Skills of light to take everything he held!

"Being a Divine King is not my ultimate pursuit."

"What I desire is to be the strongest Divine King, to possess the power to break free from all restraints. In this regard, you and I are no different."

Luo Hongyan did not turn her head, not looking at Fu Ya, but Fu Ya knew she was addressing her.

"You decipher the myriad Tao with your wisdom and create many marvels through the Hall of Gods, intending to settle everything with intelligence."

"I am different; I focus solely on two Tao, caring only for light and darkness."

"What I seek is that with a single thought, the heavens, the Star River, would either shine brightly or plunge into absolute darkness."

"Light and darkness, completely under my control, that is all."

Luo Hongyan’s voice, accompanied by light that was now ubiquitous, resonated throughout the "Chaos Star River" and also in the Sea of Souls of the Misty Sea Life.
