I've Become the King of Villains in the Game-Chapter 665 - 434: The Figure at the End of Darkness_2
Chapter 665 -434: The Figure at the End of Darkness_2
This place was situated at the northeastern corner of the gloomy plains. The fog had already dissipated. Moving forward, one would reach the deepest part… the location of the Mountain of Corpses and the White Cocoons.
Chen Lun did not dare to proceed rashly. Merely observing from a distance within the Immortal Realm had caused his Sanity Value to plummet by thousands of points. The “original” power of the Dream Realm would only be stronger… Perhaps he would die on the spot just by glancing at it.
‘This pool is the special area Philip mentioned, from which one can reach the end of the darkness…’
Chen Lun took a deep breath and leaped up, diving in like a bird entering the woods.
Splash!
The black water in the pool was incredibly viscous and heavy. When Chen Lun fell into it, it barely splashed, followed by a few muffled noises, after which the pool returned to dead silence.
Underwater, Chen Lun felt his body confined by the immense water pressure. Had it not been for the continuous activation of “Spirit Breath,” perhaps the densely packed black water would have forced its way into his body.
The Dream Realm was filled with absurdities.
The black water had no buoyancy at all, and Chen Lun sank straight down toward the bottom of the pool, like a rock plummeting into a deep valley.
Darkness followed like a shadow, profound and omnipresent.
The chill grew increasingly intense, and after an unknown duration, Chen Lun’s consciousness suddenly retracted, and he was startled to find himself lying on the ground.
Before he could sit up, he heard a huge bell tolling from a distant land.
Boom!
He quickly got up and looked in the direction of the sound.
Boom!
Another bell tolled, resounding through the universe.
Accompanying it was a strong white light that spread across the sky, blossoming simultaneously with the bell.
The white light slowly faded, and darkness returned to its profound obscurity.
‘Is this the end of the seventh layer of the Dark World?’
Chen Lun stood in the darkness, contemplating.
‘What were that bell tolling and white light just now…’
Boom!
The intense light accompanied by the deafening bell toll struck again, turning Chen Lun’s face pale, the light so strong that he couldn’t take the opportunity to clearly see his surroundings.
He wore a serious expression and decided to head in the direction of the bell and the white light to have a look.
Boom…
Boom…
As he got closer to the source of the sound, Chen Lun began to sense something unusual.
Beneath the tremendous bell, it seemed as though countless roars were hidden.
Finally, as he climbed over a hill, he saw the scene behind it.
Chen Lun stood on the hilltop, his pupils shrinking suddenly.
He saw a cabin below, a bonfire, and a figure standing tall in the darkness.
The figure was emaciated and dry, like a corpse that had been dead for a long time, its skin covered in scars, with not a single intact spot to be found.
From its shoulder blades grew one sword after another, layered upon each other to form a pair of immense steel wings. In its hands, it also held a huge, blazing golden Beheading Sword, its luster flowing like lava, as if spots of sunlight.
The sword suddenly cleaved down.
Boom!
Dazzling white light filled the field of vision, illuminating what was ahead.
In the darkness, there were densely packed, fierce silhouettes…
They were countless Didak Bug People!
They were bizarrely shaped, some even towering several tens or hundreds of meters high, roaring fiercely as they charged. But these thousands upon thousands of bug people were all incinerated into nothingness by this single sword stroke, returning to the darkness.
Boom!
Another sword stroke tolled the bell at the end of the darkness, severing the endlessly emerging tide of tainted bugs.
Chen Lun witnessed this heart-stopping scene, speechless.
After a long moment.
‘Is that Arno?!’
Looking at that figure, he already knew the answer in his heart.
The words last spoken to him in the “End of Darkness” replication in the Immortal Realm were still vividly remembered—hunt the darkness, till eternity.
At this moment, Chen Lun finally understood that phrase.
At the same time, his memory was instantly pulled back to the opening CG of version 1.0, where that fleeting figure overlapped with the man before him.
‘He has always been here, contending against countless waves of tainted bugs…’
Chen Lun’s expression was obscured by the darkness, but his eyes reflected the golden luster of Arno’s Beheading Sword.
His gaze continued to move forward.
In the brief flash of golden light, Chen Lun barely discerned in the dark sky ahead a huge “celestial body,” its surface pitch-black and profound, yet below it hid an extremely bright red hue, resembling a dying sun.
‘This is exactly like the Red Mother of the Land of Matthaios… But the one before me is clearly much larger and the oppressive feeling is countless times stronger!’
Chen Lun’s eyes instinctively felt a sting, followed by tears flowing down.
His Sanity Value was rapidly diminishing, pollution along with knowledge swarmed in, forcefully intruding into his mind.
“Sequence Nine – Medium,” “Sequence Eight – Executioner,” “Sequence Seven – Soul Consoler,” “Sequence Six – Nightwalker,” “Sequence Five – Black Knight…”
And “Sequence Four – Undead!”
The whole Pathway before the High Sequence was the same as the Moon until the original “Sequence Four – Ferryman” changed.
Chen Lun immediately knew the true name of this Pathway through the information in his mind—
Black Sun!
Black Sun Pathway!
The True God at its end is known as “Profound Mother,” “Black Sun,” or “Shadow of the Sun”!

“Master of the Profound… Guardian of Spirituality… The Sublime Dimness… Gorswaxi… Sad and lamentable, I will forever remember your brilliance, but the Sun needs only one.”
A voice of cold indifference suddenly echoed in Chen Lun’s mind.
