The Duel Between Two Suns: Book 7 of Starchild Escapes Arranged Marriage
Page 18
For all Sunwalkers, it was the last thing they wanted to remember, but they had to engrave it deep in their memory. After saying it, they would forever embark on a lonely road that no one would understand.
It had nothing to do with genius, race, origin, or gender. The reason why a Sunwalker could become a Sunwalker was all because of this sentence.
"I am the sun."
Chapter 513: The Duel Between Two Suns (1)
"I support you!" Phoenix flew happily to Yun Xi and danced around him with countless flame spirits.
She didn't know the reason, but in her heart, she naturally felt an intimate aura from him.
Just flying around him, she was intoxicated in a compulsive joy.
On the contrary, she couldn't conceal her aversion to the Sun God who robbed the precious gem from her own hands.
Unforgivable!
"Thank you... but, I won't let you obtain the gem either." The unknown egg, the fantastic creature who was possessing Yun Xi's body now declared.
"Oh, you found it, too." Hura Azda took a deep breath.
At first glance, this golden-red gem itself wasn't something too precious, it looked just like a variant of a common Kryolite.
Why could it draw so many extraordinary creatures' attention?
Because there was a special aura contained in the golden-red gem.
It was hard to describe the temptation of the aura to fire-type creatures. Any gods who sensed the aura wouldn't remain indifferent.
Kryolite was a rare treasure even amongst gods, plus the special aura inside it, its value was a hundred times higher than any common Kryolites.
Especially for fire-type, light-type, and sun-type gods, its value was even higher!
Only the strongest gods could understand how rare and precious it was.
Hura even wondered if it was the polymerized substance from a galaxy explosion, otherwise, it couldn't explain the joy when he held the gem in his hand.
How long haven't I felt this joy?
After becoming a Sunwalker, he had almost forgotten all emotions as an ordinary person. He was a sun shining on all things, but he could only wander alone forever.
Only when he hunted and barbecued the "squid strings", could he feel a little warmth. The universe was too unfriendly to Sunwalkers.
Therefore, he must obtain this gem, which could let him feel warm again!
"None of you... can stop me."
"Even if you are the same sun as me!"
He had been lonely for too long! He didn't want to give up the warmth in his hand!
No, no one can steal it from me!
Loneliness made him understand how precious this thing was, that could let him feel warm again.
For this reason, he didn't mind beating down another sun!
"Little sun... you shouldn't be here..." Holding the Sun Disk with both hands, the temperature around Hura's body began to rise rapidly.
100,000 Celsius degrees, 200,000 Celsius degrees, 300,000 Celsius degrees!
A huge amount of air was ionized and projected out, forming a fierce solar storm.
Materials around Hura could no longer exist in normal forms, the decomposed particles formed high-temperature plasmas and constantly emitted "pop!" and "Crack!" sounds.
In contrast, a large number of black particles started to gather around the golden-red bird, sunspots began to emerge and formed countless shields in front of her.
Obviously, there was a huge gap between the two sides in the use of their own solar power.
Hura's control and adjustment ability to his solar power was far superior to the unknown golden-red bird’s.
Of course, the adjustment abilities was based on the unit of "ten thousand degrees". For the sun, ten thousand degrees was the basic unit, in the human world, this temperature could melt steel instantaneously.
"No... If this goes on, I will be killed again!" Phoenix waved her wings and flew restlessly around Yun Xi, seemingly trying to protect the immature golden-red bird with her own body and wings.
Of course, it was no use. Once Hura, the Sunwalker got serious, she couldn't find any way to stop him.
On the battlefield, only a "sun" could fight against another "sun"!
"The First SN-Drive... opens!" On the Sun Disk in Hura's hand, a golden mark began to shine, releasing infinite power.
Huge solar flares began to shrink, the temperature around Hura rose to more than a million Celsius degrees in one breath. Boiling golden-red plasma bubbles continued to emerge and burst around him. The entire battlefield began to falter because of the horrible high temperature.
The entire battlefield had entered its countdown phase.
This time, it wasn't because of Phoenix, but Hura who was going to destroy the battlefield using his solar power.
The Sun Disk, the SN-Drive, the light furnace, the emergence of the power of the sun. It was the inexhaustible source of power in countless people's imaginations, it was a thing that couldn't be created scientifically or theoretically. Just like Cyber Elf Alpha's "Infinite Computing Power", the SN-Drive was the core of a sun, a real existence, a so-called "perpetual motion machine"!
It was the unique ability of the Sunwalkers, owning the SN-Drive meant that the Sunwalker could transfer himself into a real sun!
Releasing the power of the SN-Drive meant that Hura had become serious, he had taken a real action to defeat the newborn golden-red bird!
The number of SN-Drives could also be regarded as one of the criteria for the strength of a Sunwalker.
As the supreme god of the Persian God's Domain, an Ancient God who survived in the Twilight of the Gods, at the peak of his powers, he could summon twelve SN-Drives at the same time.
Chapter 514: The Duel Between Two Suns (2)
Every SN-Drive was equal to a real sun. Investigating its source, it seemed to go back to a very distant era. In the time before the endless god's domains was established, when the gods just set foot in other worlds.
Before the Twilight of the Gods, there were once 12 SN-Drives in Hura's Sun Disk. As the cost of surviving from the Twilight of the Gods, he lost half of his SN-Drives.
Ordinary legend ranked beings weren't qualified to let Hura, the Sun God liberated the SN-Drives in the Sun Disk.
In other words, the golden-red bird had had the power to make Hura become serious. He had recognized its power.
Hura's true body didn't descend into this world, his body here was formed by the strength of faith from the millions of sand soldiers, therefore, the power he showed now was already his limit.
On the contrary, although the golden-red bird came with its true body, her true body was still an egg with zero attack power. Therefore, she used another method to awaken its future appearance in advance.
She possessed Yun Xi's body.
With Yun Xi's body as a medium, the golden-red bird opened its wings and gave its first chirp to the Ancient Sun God.
In the chirp, the golden-red bird waved its wings, flying faster and higher.
She was born to be above everything, even if her opponent was an ancient god!
She didn't mind the throne of the Sun God, because she was born to fly above the thirty-three heavens, shining on all things!
Amongst all fantastic creatures, she was the strongest one, who had a strong self-confidence even before she was born.
The spirits of light and fire sang together, offering their joy to the newborn sun.
The old sun, the new sun, at the moment the two suns met, they would inevitably burst out earth-shaking sparks.
"Ah ah ah ah... Whatever, I don't care!" Phoenix chased after the golden-red bird and rushed up to the top of the sky.
On the ground, Hura was absorbed in controlling the Sun Disk in his hands.
For Sunwalkers, the worry was never about energy shortage, but about restraining their impulse to destroy everything.
If he released all the energy contained in the SN-Drive, not only the battlefield would be destroyed, even th
e White Lotus Sword Domain below would also be totally destroyed. The witches who summoned him were still waiting for his arrival in the sword domain!
I must thoroughly solve this minor problem quickly!
Yes, in the eyes of the Sun God, Hura Azda, the golden-red bird was still no match for him.
Even though he had lost half of the SN-Drives he had, he was still the strongest Sun God in the Persian God's Domain!
With his rich experience, six SN-Drives were enough for him to defeat dozens of gods at once!
If he still had 12 SN-Drives now, he could even temporarily reach level 9, the highest level of a legend ranked god could reach.
In Hura's eyes, the golden-red bird did have the qualification to sit on the same level with himself in the future, but that would be ten thousand of years later, when she had obtained at least 10 SN-Drives. At this moment, the golden-red bird didn't even have a SN-Drive, how could it be match for him?
Countless high-temperature plasma bubbles spread behind Hura. The world seemed to be cooked, rivers evaporated, seas dried up, and mountains burned up. This was the inevitable consequences of a Sunwalker's arrival on the earth, as well as the prelude to the extinction of a world.
"I want to... fly..."
"Fly to... Higher places..."
"Follow me... Together... to the sky above the thirty-three heavens..."
A crisp, firm, tender voice echoed inside Yun Xi's mind. Even after seeing the power of Hura's SN-Drive, she was still fearless and courageous.
"Whoever my opponent is, I won't lose."
"I want to surpass my opponents and become the strongest."
"So, trust me, lend me your strength!"
"My strength?" Yun Xi was confused.
There was no room for him in this level of battle!
What could a hero ranked Baker do in the battle between two suns? Make bread on the spot to supplement physical strength for her?
This time, his body wasn't being possessed by Casina's will attachment, nor Lilibet was protecting him with her power, he really didn't know what to do at this moment.
"I believe in you, you have such power and such a future!"
"You can also trust me that I can help you obtain the future you will have in advance!"
"So I summoned you!"
My power... A drop of sweat fell down from Yun Xi's forehead. Has she found that I'm the Starchild?
However, although he knew that he was a Starchild, he didn't know how a Starchild should fight, nor did Mei'er know.
It seemed that his fighting force in his past life wasn't very strong, otherwise, he wouldn't be tragically killed by his four ex-girlfriends.
"Not you now, but you in the future."
"What you want, what you imagine, what you can become! The strongest you! The you on the Starry Sky Chessboard!"
Her tender voice affirmed Yun Xi's future.
At that time, she felt the unusual aura, so she opened her eyes inside the egg and descended onto the Starry Sky Chessboard.
What awakened her was the "opportunity" Yun Xi had.
She didn't know the reason, because the true Yun Xi didn't have any legend ranked power, but she wouldn't mistake the aura, and because of the aura, she came and joined the battle.
She didn't want to give that gem to anyone else!
"So it was you... you were summoned by me..." Yun Xi finally understood why the golden-red bird came here.
Chapter 515: The Duel Between Two Suns (3)
Which came first? The chicken or the egg?
I was summoned to the battlefield by this unknown golden-red bird, and this golden-red bird was summoned by me...
Yun Xi felt regret. Why did he play so recklessly on the Starry Sky Chessboard? Why did he summon it into the game?
However, there was no medicine for regret in the world.
It was impossible for him to leave now.
What would he become if they were defeated? Looking at the plasma bubbles under his feet, he didn't dare to imagine it.
Even if it was a hero ranked being who fell into the plasma bubbles, he or she would be instantly evaporated, not to mention ordinary people.
This was the power of the Sun God!
So, what can I do now?
I can only imagine!
He didn't know how he fought in his previous life, he could only imagine what the legend ranked power should be.
When was his closest moment to the legend ranked power?
Undoubtedly, it was when he was on the Starry Sky Chessboard, playing with Cyber Elf Alpha.
Cyber Elf Alpha was the only legend ranked being he had ever defeated, although he just defeated her in a game.
The power the golden-red bird wanted, was not the “he in the real world, but the he on the Starry Sky Chessboard!”
In the real world, Yun Xi was just a hero ranked Baker, which was not even qualified to be cannon fodder here.
On the Starry Sky Chessboard, he was "the Master of Star Go"! He was the invincible legend!
Only on the Starry Sky Chessboard, he had the power to defeat a legend ranked being.
"I... am a legend." Being pushed to the limit, Yun Xi could only exert his infinite imagination and hint at himself.
"You... are a legend..." In response to Yun Xi's voice, the young golden-red bird began to increase its strength and merge with Yun Xi, just as she fought side by side with him on the Starry Sky Chessboard.
"I am... the light... " Yun Xi closes his eyes, recalling the glorious moments on the Starry Sky Chessboard.
"I am... the light... " Behind the golden-red bird, numerous golden feathers floated down, giving off a bursts of blazing sunshine.
What's going on? Hura watched in astonishment as the golden-red bird flew higher and higher into the sky.
Not right, it's not right!
It's just a newborn fantastic creature, how could her power rise at such an incredible rate?
She is just a baby bird who hadn't obtained her own SN-Drive yet!
How could she understand, and even master the power of the real sun?
"I am... a myth..." Yun Xi's eyes gradually become dim.
"I am... a myth... The golden-red bird continued to weave the fantasy belonging to Yun Xi and her.
Impossible! Impossible! The secret of the sun is a rule that needs to be learned for thousands of years, how can you master it now?
What is it? What is helping her?
Hura couldn't believe his eyes.
In his eyes, the golden-red baby bird was growing at a miraculous rate, like a baby who suddenly become a pretty young girl overnight.
"I am... the sun..." Recalling the battles on the Starry Sky Chessboard, Yun Xi suddenly opened his eyes and declared the truth that only Sunwalkers could say.
"I am... the sun..." The golden-red bird repeated the sentence cheerfully.
Yes, this was what she was expecting and waiting for.
For this, she crossed countless worlds and came here to meet him.
Endless golden-red flames burst out with glowing lights and surrounded Yun Xi's body. The golden-red bird disappeared, instead, a figure with golden-red wings appeared.
Brand-new SN-Drives were placed on both sides of the wings of this figure, emitting the aura of the eternal blazing sun.
At that instant, the same words echoed in their ears.
Everything rises to welcome you.
Praise you, the only light! You will rise to the top of the world's sky.
You rise, you shine, you take away the darkness upon the earth.
You are the king of all gods and the lord of all things.
Everything comes because of you, everything becomes sacred because of you.
From your wings, the sky and the sea are interlaced.
The holy temple is glorified by your name, and you will become a legend in legends.
We come from you and are holy because of you. You will wear your holy crown on the clouds and take the throne.
Yo
u are the source of all life, and you have crossed the river of time.
Praise you, my lord, for your life will wake up from your slumber, and you will be immortal for thousands of years, now and forever.
It was an ode to the sun, to the Sunwalkers. It was the worship of all living beings who believe in the sun.
"You... created a SN-Drive by yourself..." Listening to this familiar ode, Hura realized that the newborn golden-red bird had become a new Sunwalker, just like himself!
It's not understandable. It's totally unreasonable!
The creation of a SN-Drive was an enormous project, no matter how talented a Sunwalker was, it was impossible to become one within such a short time.
Moreover, it didn't just create one, it just created two!
Two SN-Drives!
Did he just witness the birth of the most talented Sunwalker in the universe just now?
Opening his eyes, Yun Xi could clearly feel the endless power of fire in his body and the pair of SN-Drives on his shoulders.
He felt like he was dreaming.
Why can I succeed in such a simple way?
He just imagined the power of the sun, but he really knew nothing about the nature of the sun.
He simply imagined what he would look like if he could transform into a sun. It seemed that there was some force in the dark that helped him weave the rules of the sun, and even told him the ranks of the golden-red bird and Hura the Sun God.
Sunwalker was one of the most powerful careers in the endless god's domains.
Now, he was also a Sunwalker.
Undoubtedly, he had zero knowledge about the sun, which wouldn't be taught in the Sword Palace.
However, he naturally understood the inside structure of the SN-Drive. If it wasn't because the golden-red bird's power could only create two SN-Drives at this moment, he felt that he could make more SN-Drives.
Thank you, great stars!
Apparently, the great stars helped him again.
After that, Yun Xi started to make the god weapon that Sunwalkers could use.
For Sunwalkers, they didn't need any material, because they themselves were the best materials.
Hura Azda's Sun Disk was made in this way, and the god weapon Yun Xi was going to make would also be made in this way.
