On the crumbling ruins of the collapsed Chosen Temple, flames raged like a wild tide, devouring the last traces of order. Stellar flames curled across the vault of heaven, and the power of the Falling Star Cursed Seal ran completely amok, burning on Ilea's body like a living thing, repeatedly tearing her from the edge of mortal consciousness.Lucian, his body covered in bloodstains, dragged himself to shield her, swinging his Soulfire Sword across the debris. Streaks of sword light tore through the envoy's shadowy form. But the apostle of the Cracked Moon King did not fall; instead, he grew more frenzied in battle. A lunar eclipse phantom emerged behind him, like the eye of purgatory, gazing upon all the betrayals in the world."You... dare to resist sacrifice when the cursed seal is complete?" the envoy's voice was as sharp as splitting ice, each word seeming to rend nerves.Lucian clenched his teeth, his left arm nearly crippled, blood flowing unceasingly, yet the fire in his eyes burned ever brighter. He did not retreat half a step; instead, he held Ilea tighter:"She belongs to no god, to no fate!"The envoy let out a cold laugh, his palms forming incantation seals. The falling moon wheel exploded in the air, and countless rifted realm fragments swirled toward them, as if to trap the two forever in this torrent of war between gods and mortals.At this moment, the Falling Star Cursed Seal emitted a strange light.Ilea's eyes changed.It was no longer pure painful struggle, but a kind of—awakening from the abyss.She slowly rose, and on her bare shoulders and back, the cursed seal, like flowing star patterns, emitted a azure light. The envoy instantly showed hesitation; he felt that the aura was no longer the humility of a sacrifice, but... the echo of the original owner of the falling star!"You... are not Ilea. Who are you?" the envoy ."I am Ilea," she whispered softly, but her gaze was as cold as the pitch-black star sea, "and also the Daughter of the Falling Star."As the words fell, her figure disappeared instantly, and the next moment, she appeared behind the envoy. In her palm, a scorching whip made of soul emerged—that was the true release form of the cursed seal.She swung the whip, and thousands of rifted lights fell like meteors, smashing the envoy's phantom. The envoy let out a scream, his entire left arm was completely severed, his shadow body twisted violently, and finally turned into a residual trace, fleeing into the crack in the sky.A brief silence fell over the battlefield.Lucian collapsed to the ground, looking at Ilea in front of him—her body still bore the traces of love and war, the fragrance of blood and fire surrounded her, but there was an indescribable strangeness in her eyes."Are you still... you?" he asked hoarsely.Ilea turned around, and that familiar touch of tenderness was still in the bottom of her eyes."I am me," she bent down to kiss his forehead, her fingertips tracing the soulfire seal on his chest, "but I am also... the girl who was once deprived of everything by the gods. Now, everything that belongs to me, I will take back."The two hugged tightly.At this moment, the night sky trembled again.A purple-black sky rift tore open, and the entire continent seemed to be split into two realms in this instant. The horn of the Northern Knight Order resounded through the mountains, and the flames of the Phoenix Blood Descendants rose from the Eastern Realm.The Calamity of the Rifted Realm—had truly begun.In the forbidden tower of the distant Southern Realm, a girl who had been sleeping for many years slowly opened her eyes, and in her eyes burned the same cursed seal light as Ilea's.There was more than one Falling Star.
