Chapter 1362 1348: The Path to Godhood

Baiyu extended his hand.

A spark landed in Baiyu's hand, started spinning constantly, and was then grasped by Baiyu, completely held in his hand.

The power was terrifying.

Baiyu could feel that Ai Wei had put in a lot of effort.

Clearly.

After she ascended to godhood, she became more aware of the changes in this world, hence giving him a spark.

"It seems my own ascension to godhood must be prioritized in my daily life."

Baiyu silently thought.

Only by becoming the Black Moon could one slowly survive in this eerie and terrifying world.

The bone ship began its slow journey within the cosmos, drifting between one planet after another. In the ship's cockpit, Baiyu started examining the Black Moon Crown in his hand.

After several unsuccessful attempts.

Baiyu felt that there must be some special way to activate it.

At this moment, he channeled the Black Moon Divine Power, using the power of the Black Moon Crown, and directly opened the passage to the Black Moon Divine Country.

After the traversal.

He arrived directly at the first layer of the Black Moon Divine Country, and with a single thought, he reached the innermost part of the Divine Country.

The Black Moon Divine Country is divided into seven layers.

On the seventh layer.

Which is the foundational position of this world, except for a grand and luxurious black palace, there was nothing else.

The surroundings were enveloped by endless black fog, with a palatial structure in the center, immense in scale, and above the palace, a black moon shone eternally, undying and undiminishing.

This was Baiyu's first time delving so deeply into the Black Moon Divine Country.

Previously, without the Black Moon Crown, he couldn't have accomplished these things.

Now.

He was truly the master of this place.

With a single thought.

An apparition appeared before him, surprisingly it was the Moon Lady from before. She had successfully returned to the Black Moon Divine Country, seemingly recovering well, her form now solidified.

At that moment.

Baiyu took a deep breath and asked the Moon Lady: "Is this the former palace of the Black Moon?"

The Moon Lady nodded: "Yes, this was once the palace of the Black Moon. It contains many things that might help you recall more memories and gain more power.

However.

You must be cautious.

This castle can only be opened by you, we cannot enter. Within the castle, there will also be some dangers, you must be careful; if you encounter any insurmountable danger, you must retreat in time.

The Black Moon's palace.

There are many dangers inside.

It is not a safe place."

With the Moon Lady's warning.

Baiyu became even more cautious, and then stepped onto the massive black bridge in front of him, the bridge constructed of black stone, intricately crafted, with many strange plants growing on it.

Baiyu stepped forward.

He felt that the gravity on this bridge was much stronger than elsewhere, making it difficult to advance.

Yet.

Baiyu relied on his strong willpower and quickly reached the front of the palace doors.

The doors.

Tall, double doors, entirely made from black stone.

On them.

Was an obvious indentation.

Baiyu pressed the Black Moon Crown against the indentation, then slowly twisted it, causing the two doors to open, revealing pitch darkness within.

Baiyu entered.

Inside was a road paved with red carpet, lined with lamps that lit up automatically as Baiyu walked in, illuminating a path ahead.

At this moment.

Baiyu reached the end of the red carpet.

Then.

A shadow formed at the end.

There was a door at the end.

It seemed to lead to the palace's great hall.

The shadow slowly solidified, eventually forming a shadow identical to Baiyu, then rushed towards him.

Suddenly striking.

Baiyu was caught off guard.

However, he quickly adapted to the shadow's fighting style, which was very similar to his own. Once he adjusted, Baiyu became very familiar with this combat style.

Quickly.

The entity was dispersed by Baiyu.

After dispersing, the shadow turned into streams of black gas, rushing into the door.

The door slowly opened.

Inside.

Was an even more luxurious, indescribable palace hall.

Above the hall.

Was a massive throne.

On the throne, a man clad in armor, enveloped in black energy, whose appearance was identical to Baiyu's.

Upon seeing Baiyu enter.

The figure slowly stood, exuding an unparalleled aura.

"You finally arrived, I've been waiting for you for many years," the man said coldly, eyes opening: "You arrived earlier than I expected. Of course, to become the Black Moon, you must pass through me first."

"Who are you?"

Baiyu asked gravely.

The man smiled: "Naturally, you are me; I am the Black Moon, the former Black Moon. But now, that's in the past. The future Black Moon, will be you."

"Whether I am willing or not?"

Baiyu asked.

The man shook his head: "You are the Black Moon, you can decide, as a Divine Spirit, you can make many decisions. However, you'd better be careful; some Divine Spirits are not so simple.

Beware of some Divine Spirits.

Especially the Crowned Bane.

I was infected by it; it is far more powerful than I thought. I was careless, hence infected by the Crowned Bane, and this infection is irreversible, only growing more severe, further eroding my spirit.

If you can truly become the Black Moon, remember, avenge me."

Baiyu furrowed his brow.

"I am not you?"

"You are me, but not me; our souls share the same source. Do you think, when the Black Moon decides to be reborn, it could leave a clone?

In the Inner World.

There are a billion Black Moon clones.

But.

Only you could successfully arrive in the Outer World, successfully come here.

Therefore.

You are the Black Moon. However, only if you pass me can you become the Black Moon. You need my power to unlock the true seal inside the Black Moon Crown."

The shadow stepped forward, eyes gleaming with cold light: "Come now, let me see if you can truly become the Black Moon, whether you can become this true Divine Spirit!"

As he spoke.

The surrounding darkness began to spread; instantly, the Black Moon Realm formed.

The entity rushed forward, unleashing an endless Black Moon Divine Power upon Baiyu like a collapsing mountain.

Baiyu gathered his Golden Blood.

Throwing a punch forward.

But the impact waves directly blasted Baiyu away.

So powerful.

Furthermore, his body continued to shatter, forcing Baiyu to constantly use Golden Power to repair himself.

"If that's all, you are far from being the Black Moon. Let me see your true strength."

The shadow said in a deep voice.
