I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

The phone was connected.

But there was silence on the other end, as if this call led to the unknown of the Netherworld, deep in Hell.

No one spoke first.

Until... a mischievous chuckle rang out from the phone.

”You’re still as composed as before; it’s such an annoying trait.”

Upon hearing this voice, Lin Jingxuan felt a momentary sense of disorientation, as if traversing through time and space.

”What, are you surprised to hear I’m still alive? Are you speechless?”

The voice on the phone continued.

But Lin Jingxuan chuckled, interrupting him: ”No, you’re already dead.”

”Even if the call is connected, you’re merely a ’lie’, a living ’lie’.”

Upon hearing Lin Jingxuan’s response, there was silence on the other end.

”Perhaps you’re right.”

”The ’lie’ deceives me, makes me feel as though I’m alive, but in reality, I’m merely a backup left behind, a lie of self-deception.”

If Lin Jingxuan hadn’t dialed this number, the ”Yi Fan” on the other end would have continued to exist, believing he was ”still alive.”

This state is broken when the call connects, bringing forth more memories belonging to ”Yi Fan.”

”So, ’I’ had died long ago.”

The voice on the other end continued, now sounding older.

”You dialed this number for that living Primordial True Insect.”

Lin Jingxuan’s eyebrow slightly raised, ”You truly know.”

”Of course, because I and It are one.”

The voice on the other end was old and deep, accompanied by the crackling of poor signal, creating an eerie feeling.

If Yi Fan and Primordial True Insect [Extinction] are of one entity, then Lin Jingxuan coming here to seek It is akin to walking into a trap.

”Even if you’re a lie, you’re still as vile as the original.”

Lin Jingxuan said coldly.

He wasn’t intimidated by ”Yi Fan.”

Because, when coming to find ”Yi Fan,” he had already guessed this possibility.

”When you seized and merged with Primordial True Insect [Silence], you actually sensed the existence of Primordial True Insect [Extinction], am I right?”

Primordial True Insect [Silence],

Primordial True Insect [Extinction].

Both born from the River of Eternal Darkness, fulfilling the duty of annihilation.

Saying they are one entity is not wrong.

This is also why Lin Jingxuan is certain that on all Blue Star, Yi Fan is the most knowledgeable about the Primordial True Insect.

”Truly uninteresting.”

Seeing he couldn’t scare Lin Jingxuan, Yi Fan on the other end snorted lightly.

However, he didn’t say anything unnecessary.

The rare serious Yi Fan spoke indifferently on the other end:

”Rest assured, when I gave this note, I said I would help him once.”

”Helping him, or helping you, or helping Great Xia, or helping this world.”

”I will handle that Primordial True Insect.”

His tone was calm, as if saying ”Tonight’s dinner is porridge” with simplicity.

Upon hearing this, Lin Jingxuan felt relieved.

Although Yi Fan is often frivolous, what he promises, he always has the confidence to fulfill.

Thinking of this, Lin Jingxuan looked up again, his gaze landing on the kneeling statue of Yi Fan.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

The phone suddenly burst into exaggerated, manic laughter, interrupting Lin Jingxuan’s intended ”thank you.”

”I, Yi Fan, only care about results, not the process.”

”I am willing to bear all sins and infamy.”

”So, goodbye.”

”Second Brother.”

The phone was hung up.

At the same time, in a certain unknown region of Star Sea, a gigantic insect with a size far exceeding that of a star emerged from the darkness.

It watched as the floating note gradually dissipated, its gaze turning to a distant place, there sensing a rapidly moving kin.

Second Brother Lin Jingxuan’s assumption was correct.

By replacing the original with a lie, and becoming Primordial True Insect [Silence] at that moment, Yi Fan sensed there was more than one Primordial True Insect.

Another one lingered in the distant Star Sea, but it didn’t rule out the possibility of history repeating itself.

At that time, he decided to leave a backup, for today’s situation.

Everyone could blame Yi Fan, blame his unscrupulous methods, blame his cold blood and indifference, blame his deceit and lies.

But as Lin Jingxuan said, Yi Fan’s intelligence is no less than his own, a recognition from a fellow wise man.

Yi Fan is dead.

The Primordial True Insect before them is the ”lie” awakened by the phone, quietly existing in the Nameless Star Domain, siphoning Spiritual Power from the Cosmos.

Once the ”lie” was revealed, It was thoroughly activated, a state that could only last for a short time.

Its fate was fixed from the moment of its creation.

—When necessary, perish along with Primordial True Insect [Extinction]!

The Primordial True Insect lost the River of Eternal Darkness, Its power was only slightly stronger than a deity.

Otherwise, Lin Jingxuan couldn’t have stalled It for so long.

The backup Yi Fan left, after seizing Primordial True Insect [Silence] was complete, from the perspective of strength level, the gap between the two is negligible.

More importantly, It is also a Primordial True Insect now, is a companion, is a blood brother!

Suddenly, while swiftly traversing the Endless Cosmos, Primordial True Insect [Extinction] seemed to sense something and looked towards a place.

It sensed a familiar aura, which seemed to be its long-lost companion, carrying excitement and frenzy.

As if saying: ”Brother, did you finally come to destroy the world?”

”Let’s annihilate the Era of Annihilation together!”

”River of Eternal Darkness, the greatest mother river!”

”...”

Under the influence of numerous lies and erroneous perceptions, Primordial True Insect [Extinction] completely let go of its guard and joyfully communicated with its companion, Primordial True Insect [Silence].

Then, It saw not far away, the gigantic insect shadow identical to itself, quickly flying toward itself.

Seems... it wants to hug...

It’s... too enthusiastic...

Hug... too close... slow down...

There’s no time.

When Primordial True Insect [Extinction]’s awareness recovered, noticing anything wrong, the distance between the insect shadow opposite and itself was already zero.

The two Primordial True Insects, both flying at high speeds, made the closest contact.

The terrifying speed, the terrifying size, a frontal collision, with not a shred of reaction time, unavoidable.

Primordial True Insect [Extinction]’s last glimpse saw a human face emerging.

It was smiling.

The smile carried mockery, madness.

Seemingly mocking itself, mocking the so-called fate.

The next second.

In the Endless Star Sea,

A magnificent, dazzling firework silently blossomed.

Unfortunately, no one saw it again.
