In the boundless and vast starry sky,

a twisted planet as red as it could be emanated endless blood mist.

This blood mist spread in all directions, infecting the surrounding cosmos.

Thump, thump.

The sound of a heartbeat reverberated throughout the entire galaxy.

Thump, thump!

Among the blood mist, a figure large enough to fill the galaxy quietly appeared.

It was an insect.

No, it should be referred to as, Him.

He was an insect!

At the center of His body, a bright red twisted heart beat violently.

As if due to the heartbeat, His outline gradually became solid, and tangible.

It was hard to describe exactly how immense He was.

Just the heart alone was comparable to a celestial body.

With each breath, every speck of dust and star fragment in the Star Sea was gathered, inhaled by His mouthparts.

Then exhaled, endless black viscous filth was spat out from His mouth, dyeing the entire cosmos pitch black!

Before Him, Blue Star was like a small broken ball of children’s toys, radiating pale blue light.

The next second, He aimed at Blue Star, opening His mouth full of sharp teeth, resembling a black hole of the utmost magnitude!

Blue Star, at the core area of Can Shang Company.

Everyone looked up at the sky, seeing the crimson dye the entire sky.

A profound sense of helplessness welled up in their hearts.

Too powerful.

Stronger than any creature they had ever seen before.

He was like an extinction god, and as ordinary mortals, they could only kneel respectfully, praying for mercy and grace.

Even though this god was an insect with a mouth full of sharp teeth, larger than the whole galaxy!

At this moment, the village’s only hope, Han Zhan, had also gone silent.

If not for the battle with the Imperial, with the three streaks of Sword Qi left by the Yellow Emperor, perhaps they could have killed Him, accomplishing the great feat of god-slaying.

But because of Blue Star People’s internal strife, this possibility became a mirage.

What to do?!

"I have a way!" Just at that moment, Xia Youwei stood out.

Her words suddenly enlightened the other few women.

"Twilight Rhapsody!"

"It’s the artifact left to us by that black hood who called himself Dawn!"

The black hood had once said that these two artifacts could help Han Zhan turn the tide.

Among them, the [Shuttle Gate] had already made great contributions, but the [Twilight Rhapsody] had not yet found a suitable opportunity.

But could the [Twilight Rhapsody] really kill a resurrected god?

"It doesn’t matter, it’s come to this point, there’s no other way."

Said Xia Youwei, and she pulled out that sheet of rhapsody.

The yellowed rhapsody quietly floated in mid-air.

No different from the most ordinary old paper sheets.

Xia Youwei sat cross-legged, and Fu Xi Zither appeared before her.

The rhapsody transformed into a zither score, and following the zither score it revealed, Xia Youwei struck the strings without hesitation.

When the strings were plucked.

It was no longer the familiar sound of the zither.

A sound that should not belong to Fu Xi Zither, should not belong to Blue Star, to any describable sound, resounded in everyone’s ears.

Absurd, bizarre, an indescribable feeling of heartburn flowed uncontrollably from the heart.

At the instant this sound rang out, even the original heartbeat was drowned out.

The "god-like" insect suddenly stopped the action of continuing to devour Blue Star.

Then, terror was revealed in His eyes, and He was about to flap His wings and fly.

But immediately, His form was bound in the void!

The "zither sound" continued to ring.

Those special tones that did not exist in the world made people shiver with fright, yet gave birth to the impulse to worship.

Ordinary people on Blue Star, upon hearing these tones, immediately knelt to the ground.

They prostrated on the ground, as if worshipping something.

Not just them.

Those cultivators with lower cultivation realms also uncontrollably knelt on the ground, expressions terrified, tears streaming.

A nameless sorrow surged in their hearts.

A sense of desolation and loneliness filled the universe.

Only now did they truly understand what "dusk" really was.

Twilight Rhapsody was a mourning hymn!

The young boy Han Zhan clenched his fists, fighting against this sense of helpless submission.

What exactly was the zither tune Xia Youwei playing?!

The rhapsody floating in mid-air, burning, who was the mourning hymn playing for?! 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

He stubbornly raised his head, looking towards the sky.

He found the truth he wanted to know.

That was the divine.

Not just one!

As the zither music resonated, countless divine shadows that didn’t exist in the world appeared in the vast cosmos.

Their shapes filled the entire Star Sea, and compared to them, the originally exaggerated terrifying insect-like "god," was far inferior.

The only difference was, these shadows were even more ephemeral than the resurrected insect-like god, as if they could be blown away by a gust of wind at any time.

Their state was also very wrong.

Just with a glance, Han Zhan saw:

Some gods only had their upper bodies left, while their lower half was void, missing.

Some gods had their heads gnawed away, leaving just an outline barely recognizable.

Some gods had swords densely pierced all over, expressions sorrowful yet unyielding.

Some gods plucked out their own eyes with eight arms, howling at the sky, with a massive gash on their stomach.

Ragnarok, this is its true meaning!

A glance was all Han Zhan needed, and he was struck on the back of the head as if by a sudden club, his vision blackening, fainting.

Xia Youwei, remembering the black hood’s warning, simply shut her eyes, relying on her memory, and played the final few notes.

The Twilight Rhapsody reached its conclusion.

The yellowed rhapsody sheet also completely burned to ashes.

The divine shadows of varying expressions in the Endless Star Sea also finally vanished.

The entire void returned to calm.

As if nothing had happened.

Only then did everyone realize, daylight had arrived.

The original Red Moon had disappeared.

The insect shadow that descended through the resurrection of the Divine Heart also vanished with the end of the Twilight Rhapsody.

The Moon, still remained the Moon.

A thoroughly dead, Divine Heart.

"Is it really over now?" Nuannuan asked, slightly weak-legged, sitting on the ground, showing two pale long legs.

Li Lingzhen walked to Xia Youwei’s side with some concern, asking if there were any adverse effects after playing the Twilight Rhapsody.

Shang Siteng and Gongyang Jin together held the fainted young boy Han Zhan in their arms.

Everyone was sighing with relief after surviving the calamity.

Only one person acted differently from the others.

That person was Shang Jianyue.

He raised his head, gazing at the sky, muttering to himself: "Yes, it’s truly over now."

"Can Shang Company, this name was given by me. It shone because of me, and today, it shall also be destroyed because of me."

"Everyone, please excuse me for a while."

"I have some personal matters to attend to in the sky, to put an end to Can Shang Company."
