Legend of the Embroiderer

Chapter 437 The Era of Entropy Silence

The excruciating pain, like a surging undercurrent, violently dragged the consciousness of the fused entity into an endless vortex of darkness.

Her senses nearly collapsed under the impact; her ears were filled with a piercing buzzing sound, and all that remained before her eyes was a thick, inky chaos. Only the wound in her heart, pierced by the crystal, continued to radiate an excruciating burning pain, as if an inextinguishable evil fire was raging within her body.

In this dark abyss, the desperate cries for help from young Ying were like sharp steel needles, piercing her nerves again and again, each cry making her soul tremble.

Just as her consciousness was about to be completely swallowed by darkness, a gentle light, like the dawn breaking through the gloom, pierced through the heavy haze and entered her sea of ​​consciousness.

It was a rain of light transformed from a holy figure, each drop carrying a soothing power, gently touching her shattered consciousness.

"Don't give up, sister."

The voice of the holy figure was no longer distant and elusive, but resounded truly deep within her consciousness, filled with firmness and gentleness: "The twin powers of the observer should naturally return to their original place and become one."

As she spoke, the light rain flowed like a stream into the ocean, merging into her consciousness, and a long-buried memory surged forth like a tide.

In that distant memory, the Milky Way shone brightly, like a dreamlike ocean.

A woman dressed in a pure white robe, whose appearance was extremely similar to that of the fusion body, held a jade pendant in her hand, her eyes filled with determination and reluctance, and solemnly handed the jade pendant to the guardian of the jade armor.

"If the observer loses balance, this will be the last hope."

The woman's voice was ethereal and melodious, as if it had traveled through the long river of time, and now it echoed in the mind of the merged entity.

It turns out that since ancient times, her fate has been closely linked to this jade pendant and the power of the observer, becoming the key to turning the tide.

When the fusion body regains consciousness, it finds itself in a strange and eerie space.

All around was a desolate ruin, with shattered star fragments floating in the air. Dark red mist permeated the air like a ghost, corroding everything it touched, and a pungent stench filled the air.

The wound on his chest had healed at some point, but dark purple veins beneath his skin, like evil vines, spread wildly along his blood vessels. When his heart beat, these veins would emit an eerie pulse, as if an evil life was awakening within him.

She struggled to get up, each movement accompanied by a teeth-grinding grinding sound from her bones, as if her body was no longer under her control.

Not far away, a silver figure stood on an altar made of dark purple hearts, clutching a complete jade pendant tightly in his hand.

The star pattern on the surface of the jade pendant flowed wildly, like boiling magma, exuding a chilling aura.

Around the altar, twelve stone pillars engraved with twisted entropy-increasing symbols stood tall, their dark purple beams of light intertwining to form a massive six-pointed star magic circle that enveloped the entire space.

The remains of the Tree of Hope floated in the center of the magic circle. The trunk, which once radiated vitality and hope, was now full of cracks, and the embedded fruits had all turned into dark purple hearts. As the silver figure chanted, the hearts beat in sync, and each beat caused the space to tremble violently, as if to tear this space apart completely.

"Welcome to the dawn of the Entropy Silence Era."

The silver figure slowly turned around, a twisted, sinister smile on its face, its voice filled with madness and triumph, "When the twin jade pendants unite, the dark side of the observer will devour all light, and you will be nothing more than a sacrifice to this great ritual!"

He raised his hand and waved it, and the dark purple hearts around the altar suddenly emitted a piercing shriek, transforming into countless dark purple tentacles that pounced on the fused entity like greedy venomous snakes.

The fused entity instinctively raised its light blade, preparing to meet the enemy.

To her horror, she discovered that the light of the blade had become extremely weak under the corrosive influence of the dark purple energy, as if it would be extinguished at any moment.

Familiar faces emerged from the tips of the tentacles—residents of parallel worlds she had once saved, their faces now contorted, their eyes flashing with madness and evil.

"Join us and become part of entropy!"

Their voices mingled together, like a chorus from hell, full of seduction and allure.

Just as the tentacles were about to touch the fused entity, a mysterious and powerful force suddenly surged within her.

That was the power of light brought by the holy figure merging into her consciousness, resonating with the ancient tree essence within her body, forming a powerful storm within her.

Her pupils suddenly lit up with a two-colored light, her left eye shining with a holy gold, as dazzling as the sun, full of vitality and hope.

His right eye swirled with a deep, dark purple, as mysterious as an abyss, containing a destructive power.

The light blade regained its dazzling brilliance, one half of its blade burning with golden flames, scorching and holy, while the other half was wrapped in dark purple lightning, violent and dangerous.

"Twin Power, Awaken!" The fused entity roared, its voice containing two completely different powers that resounded throughout the entire space.

As the light blade was swung, golden and dark purple energies intertwined to form a dazzling arc of light. Wherever it went, the dark purple tentacles exploded and turned into dissipating energy.

Upon seeing this, a hint of surprise flashed in the silver figure's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by madness.

He embedded the jade pendant into the core of the altar, causing the entire altar to tremble violently. The remains of the Tree of Hope burst forth with dazzling purple light, and countless distorted faces appeared on the trunk, emitting mournful screams as if telling of endless pain and resentment.

The fused entity showed no fear; she leaped into the air and charged toward the altar.

Just as she approached the altar, a dark purple barrier suddenly rose up, blocking her way.

The entropy symbols flowing across the barrier constantly eroded her energy, and each contact caused her excruciating pain.

"You think you can stop me with this little bit of power?"

The silver figure laughed wildly, "The Primal Seed is about to awaken, and the entire universe will come to its end in the embrace of entropy!"

Just as the fusion was in trouble, a tremor suddenly came from beneath the altar, and a golden light shot into the sky.

The roots of the adult firefly were revealed in the light, its voice filled with anxiety and anticipation:

"A fusion! The Primal Seed lies beneath the altar; it is the last hope against Entropy Silence!"

The fused being was startled. She concentrated her twin powers and slashed the ground with a blade of light.

With a loud bang, the ground cracked open, revealing a passage radiating a mysterious light. Deep within the passage, a soft light flickered faintly, as if beckoning her.

The fusion entity jumped into the passage without hesitation, followed by an angry roar from a silver figure.

The passageway was filled with dark purple vines, each one brimming with malevolent power, attempting to entangle her.

But she wielded her light blade, and golden and dark purple energy continuously destroyed the vines that blocked her way, clearing a path through the passage.

As she ventured deeper, the light ahead grew brighter and brighter, and finally, she arrived at a vast space.

In the center of the space, a seed emitting a soft light floated in the air; it was the Primordial Seed.

The moment the fusion reached out and touched the seed, a powerful suction suddenly came, pulling her consciousness into a mysterious world.

In this world, she witnessed the origin of the universe, the birth of the observer, and the prophecy of entropy silence.

"You've finally arrived, my vessel."

A deep, ancient voice sounded in her ear, “When the power of twins resonates with the primordial seed, a new observer will be born, and you will become the vessel of this power.”

Before the fusion entity could react, a silver figure suddenly appeared in front of her, its eyes gleaming with greed.

"The Primal Seed is mine!"

He roared and lunged at the seed, but just as he was about to touch it, he was repelled by a golden light.

The fused body began to glow, and the twin power resonated with the primordial seed, her consciousness gradually merging with the seed.

Just as the fusion was about to be completed, the space suddenly trembled violently, and an aura more powerful and ancient than the silver figure came from the depths of darkness, as if a sleeping behemoth was awakening.

This aura contained boundless pressure, causing both the fused entity and the silver figure to feel a sense of fear.

"What... kind of power is this?"

The silver figure stared in terror into the depths of darkness, its voice trembling.

The fused body flew uncontrollably toward the darkness, and her consciousness began to blur under the impact of this force.

In her last moments before losing consciousness, she saw the tiny light of young Hotaru flickering in the darkness, as if conveying some kind of message to her.

And that mysterious and terrifying power, carrying the aura of annihilation, is slowly approaching...
