Chapter 157. The Collective Will of Earth, the Seed of Hope
In the cold, desolate void of the universe, a tiny figure drifts in a place inaccessible to ordinary people.
All around was the dark cosmic sky, and there was nothing else.
Suddenly, a faint light appeared beside the figure. Slowly, the light solidified and finally transformed into a goddess with flowing hair and exquisite features.
She brushed her hand across the figure's face, and the figure's tightly closed eyes trembled slightly. The next moment, the eyes opened, and the pupils seemed to contain the mysteries of the universe and the ultimate truth of all things.
"Who are you?" Ji Yuan shook his head, feeling weak all over.
"Noah - Final" is a powerful ultimate skill, but it also consumes a lot of energy, draining all of its energy with each use.
"Who am I? Hehe, haven't we already met?" The goddess smiled slightly, her gentle voice seemingly conveying a universal love for the world.
"I've seen you before? Who are you?" Ji Yuan rubbed his forehead, his energy still not fully recovered, and his mind was still a little foggy.
However, the goddess's words served as a reminder that long ago, when she was still the wingless Noah, a being whose face she could not see had appeared in her dreams.
Back then, we were still thanking him for maintaining the balance of the multiverse.
"Are you the figure from my dream before?" Ji Yuan said.
The goddess nodded and smiled, saying, "Yes, we met once before. Your growth has exceeded my expectations."
"It's alright, everything just fell into place naturally," Ji Yuan said nonchalantly.
"By the way, who are you?"
"Me?" The goddess sat down beside Ji Yuan. "I have no name. I am the collective will of all Earths in the multiverse."
"Earth's will? Gaia?" Ji Yuan was puzzled; he wasn't sure if it was such a being.
"No." The goddess shook her head. "Gaia may be a part of me, but she is not me. I also represent the hope of all the earth."
"Hmm—then I'll call you Xiao hope." Ji Yuan immediately activated his talent for naming.
"Okay, whatever makes you happy." The goddess chuckled and accepted the ordinary name Xiao hope.
Ji Yuan didn't expect Xiao hope to be so easy to talk to, and to decide on a name so readily.
"So, what brings you here?"
"To thank you for saving the multiverse."
"When did I save the multiverse?" Ji Yuan asked, puzzled.
"It's that being you threw out of all creation before. Its self-destruction within the multiverse will cause the entire multiverse to collapse, resulting in an unprecedented catastrophe," Xiao hope patiently explained.
"That serious?" Ji Yuan hadn't expected that the self-destruction of the Chaos Shadow would cause such a disaster.
He only felt that a self-destruction of that level would cause him a lot of pain. Throwing him to Sithon would not only not hurt him, but would also teach Sithon and the other demons a lesson. It was a win-win situation. He never expected that he would accidentally save the multiverse.
However, Ji Yuan was extremely curious about what that thing was, so he asked, "What is that thing? I feel like it's a bit dim-witted."
"I can't tell you exactly what that thing is; you'll have to find out for yourself," Xiaoxi said apologetically.
Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan was immediately displeased. He wished there were fewer riddle-makers in the world. "I've saved the multiverse, can't I even know a name?"
Xiao hope sighed, "It's not that I'm unwilling to tell you, but whatever is said will be known."
If his name is spoken, a connection will be established, and he can follow this connection to the multiverse, which would be a catastrophe for the multiverse.
"So—powerful?" Ji Yuan's eyes narrowed. This was almost as powerful as when he unleashed his Omniscient Light Domain.
However, his omniscience exists within the multiverse, while this unspeakable being is already able to perceive beyond the multiverse, demonstrating its immense power.
Xiao hope nodded. "That's how powerful you are. You have to be careful. Your views are contrary to theirs, and your potential is so great. They will definitely try to target you."
"Okay, I'll be careful."
In fact, Ji Yuan wasn't worried at all. With the God of Stories guarding the outside of the multiverse, anything that could be let in must be something that could be handled at the multiverse level, so there was no need to worry so much.
"Oh, right, this is for you." A point of light appeared in Xiaoxi's hand, which looked like a strange seed.
"What is this?" Ji Yuan looked at the seed; he could only sense positive energy within it.
"This is a seed of hope. The Earth you live on is nurturing a god of the Earth. This seed can truly awaken him." Xiao Xi handed the seed to Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan took the seed and sensed that it indeed carried a faint but firm force of hope, and he also knew about that Earth God.
When he was tricking those dimensional demons before, he sensed a faint consciousness being nurtured within the consciousness of Earth, and he fed that consciousness with the power of many dimensional demons.
"Alright." Xiao hope smiled as she watched Ji Yuan put away the Seed of Hope. "I've done what I needed to do. I hope that when we meet again, the multiverse will still be peaceful and stable."
After she finished speaking, her figure vanished into countless points of light, as if she had never been there.
Ji Yuan was a little confused. Xiao Xi came and went inexplicably. She gave a reminder and a seed of hope, and then left in a hurry, just like an NPC in a game who expands the world view.
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. As long as there is light, there is hope. Now that I've regained some strength, I should go find Peter and tell him to be careful not to let anything slip."
Ji Yuan thought to himself, then waved his hand in the cosmos and vanished instantly.
In the 001 universe, at the former heirs' family manor, the Spider-Men gathered to celebrate their victory.
"Kahn, are you saying you want to take on the master weaver's task again? But didn't you want to escape this fate?" Peter looked at Kahn's gentle smile and tried his best to persuade him.
"Peter, I know you're worried about me." Kahn smiled gently. "Fate has broken free of its shackles. I became the Weaver Master not to choose Spider-Man, but to spread hope and life throughout the multiverse, just like that God of Light, loving and great."
Peter was a little confused, but he knew it was a good thing, and sincerely said, "Then I wish you all the best in getting what you want."
Kahn smiled and opened a bottle of red wine that looked quite expensive. "How about it, Peter? Want a glass?"
Peter was about to refuse, but then he remembered that Gwen seemed to be asleep, and having a drink didn't seem like a big problem.
Just as he was about to accept, a familiar voice suddenly rang in his ears: "Peter, you're being naughty. What are you doing drinking alcohol, kid? Go drink your Coke."
