Chapter 569: Chapter 568: The Ultimate Game Spanning Two Macrocosms 4

“Actually, it doesn’t feel like much.”

Lin Qi spoke honestly.

He was not so heartless and cold that he could watch the destruction of all living beings in an entire cosmos without the slightest reaction.

But if he were truly expected to feel shame over a Heat Death that had been destined thirty thousand years ago, that would be far too much of an overflow of sympathy.

To put it bluntly.

The living beings of the Great Cosmos of Tianyuan who would be buried in the cosmic Heat Death stirred up by the Heavenly God Abyss — aside from one Sword Princess, and the barely nameable Enchantress One and Enchantress Two — the rise and fall, the destruction of all other beings, to Lin Qi, amounted to nothing more than cold numbers.

More importantly.

Lin Qi knew the true purpose behind the Heavenly God Abyss turning the scheme against them and successfully dragging the entire Great Cosmos of Tianyuan into the Final Heat Death.

It was absolutely not for the simple sake of destroying the entire Great Cosmos of Tianyuan.

Rather, it was for the Zeroing Restart after Dao-Sacrifice.

Dao-Sacrifice, the next realm beyond the Dao-Fusion Realm.

Taken literally, it seemed to mean sacrificing the Dao one cultivated.

But in reality, it meant refining the Three Thousand Great Daos.

Three thousand was a figurative number, referring to all the Great Dao Laws that existed within a single Great Cosmos.

Although in theory, a powerhouse at the Dao-Fusion Realm, after fusing their body with the Heavenly Dao, was already capable of controlling all the Great Dao Laws existing in the Great Cosmos they cultivated.

But in fact, even if the Heavenly Dao encompassed all the Great Dao Laws within a Great Cosmos, encompassed everything of that Great Cosmos — past, present, and future — there were still some Great Dao Laws that the Dao-Fusion Realm alone ultimately could not perfect.

Because even the Heavenly Dao had never truly grasped them.

For example, the cycle of a cosmos’s reincarnation and destruction.

Even if a Dao-Fusion Realm powerhouse, with the Heavenly Dao’s aid, could freely roam the River of Time, arrive at the cosmos’s origin, and reach the cosmos’s end — if they had not personally experienced a cosmos’s cycle of reincarnation and destruction, then how could they possibly know what the scene was like at the very beginning of the cosmos’s origin?

Or what the scene was like after the cosmos’s end?

And it was precisely because they wished to know the beginning of the cosmos’s origin and what lay after the end that those Dao-Fusion Realm powerhouses standing at the pinnacle of a Great Cosmos, those who could be called the Strongest in the Cosmos, explored the realm above Dao-Fusion.

And they named it Dao-Sacrifice.

Before the Myriad Realms had explored and intersected with one another, even if some Dao-Fusion Realm existences vaguely glimpsed the existence of the Dao-Sacrifice Realm, they would not forcibly pursue Dao-Sacrifice. Instead, they let nature take its course.

They allowed time to flow on, and within the vast span of years, naturally waited for the cosmos to enter its final Heat Death and destruction.
