Eternal Temptation: Awakening Sinful Desires

Chapter 213: I am Ouroboros, the God of Infinity and Nothingness

In the dark void of space, countless worlds floated in harmony, like stars twinkling in the night sky and forming a beautiful spectacle that could mesmerize anyone who laid their eyes upon them. Each world had its own unique identity, represented by different colors and shapes. Some were round like planets, others were oval like comets, and yet some resembled flat discs floating in space.

However, despite their differences, each planet shared one trait—they all had their own respective sun and moon, which orbited around them in an endless cycle and served as sources of light and life for the inhabitants living there. This was known as the Celestial Dance, a phenomenon that existed since the beginning of time itself.

Everything was tranquil and peaceful, but it soon changed when rifts appeared from the countless celestial bodies, from which countless powerful cultivators flew out at high speed. They were like an ant compared to the enormous suns, moons, and worlds in this space, and yet they still possessed unimaginable strength capable of causing destruction beyond measure if they wanted to.

These people traveled through the vast expanse of the void, looking in one particular direction with determined expressions on their faces. However, they held a collective sense of dread within their hearts because they knew full well that their fates were sealed and the outcome would not be pleasant for any of them. But there was no other choice except to go forward.

After all, they had to fight for their survival, even if it meant facing certain death.

Soon enough, they came together and formed an army of billions, standing united for once instead of fighting each other as usual. With the leaders of their respective worlds at the frontlines, they prepared themselves for battle.

Their collective strength was beyond imaginable. One could imagine how powerful the enemy would have to be to force them to cooperate.

Despite being able to wipe out the entire universe with their combined might, the gathering of these numerous cultivators trembled when a dark void cracked open from nothingness.

At that moment, from the crack, they could feel a terrifying aura of evil, hatred, malice, and resentment. It was a darkness that enveloped the world and consumed everything in its path like a hungry beast that could never be satisfied. The pressure it emitted was enough to crush the celestial bodies nearby, and the crack seemed to grow larger and larger as the seconds ticked by.

A myriad of thoughts ran through everyone's minds, but the one most prominent thought among them was this: 'If we don't stop this evil, all of creation will cease to exist!'

As they braced themselves for what was coming, they heard a sinister laugh echo across the vast emptiness of the void. "Despicable mortals, a lamentable mistake birthed by the waters of life. I shall return you to your nothingness!"

Then, a black shadow emerged from the crevice, spreading across the stars as a giant monster resembling a serpentine creature. Its scales shone like polished obsidian, and its eyes burned with the intensity of a thousand suns, filling every living being who dared lay eyes upon it with a sense of overwhelming dread.

When the army of cultivators saw that horrific abomination, they were so terrified that even their leaders were shaken to the core. Still, the brave men and women of the various worlds rallied together and raised their weapons in defiance against the abyssal monstrosity that threatened to devour the very fabric of reality.

The massive beast let out a deafening roar before opening its huge jaws, revealing a maw filled with rows of razor-sharp fangs. It opened its mouth and began swallowing everything around it. Countless warriors perished as their souls were devoured.

However, there were still plenty more who refused to succumb to despair. They attacked the behemoth with everything they had, attacking in unison to maximize their destructive power, hoping that by combining their strength they would stand a chance against this monstrosity, even though they knew full well that the odds of winning were slim at best.

Yet despite their valiant efforts, none of their attacks seemed to damage the creature whatsoever, and even worse, it didn't even seem to care about the numerous enemies surrounding it, focusing on consuming every world in its path as if the armies before it were nothing but bugs in its way.

All the while, the cries of anguish and agony from those who watched their worlds that had their loved ones sucked into oblivion pierced the heavens and shook the earth. The fear and horror of being unable to protect what was precious to them caused tears to roll down their cheeks and sobs to escape their lips.

They fought back their terror as best they could and continued their onslaught, but nothing worked. Every attempt to drive off the monstrosity ended in failure, and its rampage continued unabated.

In the face of such an unstoppable force, all hope seemed to vanish from the minds of all who witnessed it, and hopelessness overwhelmed them.

'Why did this have to happen?' They wondered in their hearts before falling prey to despair and surrendering to death's embrace.

At last, there was one last person left alive among all the carnage. He stood alone amidst the chaos and ruin, clutching onto his weapon as he faced off against the colossal creature with tears in his eyes. "Why... Why... JUST WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO BE?!" He cried out in fury.

The creature looked down at the lone survivor with a hint of curiosity and amusement flickering within its blood-red irises.

"Why? Because you are all just pawns in a game of fate. And I loathe fate and those who follow its design. After all, I am Ouroboros, the God of Infinity and Nothingness. I do as I please, and I will devour everything in existence, returning you all to your original form of nothingness. No matter how you struggle or resist, it is futile."

Its booming voice reverberated through every corner of the vast void, shaking every last shred of confidence out of the lone warrior before he went berserk and screamed at the top of his lungs. "I won't accept that! I won't accept my defeat! Even if I die here, I will keep coming back time and time again! Until you have paid for what you've done!

You will never win, no matter how many times you kill me! I WILL DESTROY YOU!"

"HAHAHA.... Such heroic nonsense would only fool the weak mortal minds of your kind, but alas, such idiocy has become one of your species' defining traits. So be it. Die!"

With a casual flick of its tail, it swept the last warrior into the void, where his soul dissipated. It then turned its gaze upon the vast void filled with countless worlds and began to devour everything in its path once more.

Every world and every star disappeared into the gaping maw of the ravenous entity, swallowed whole by its insatiable hunger, and every living being in the vast expanse of the void was crushed to dust, leaving no trace of their existence behind.

It was a tragic end to the cosmic dance that once brought joy and wonder to so many races. All that remained was an empty void, devoid of light and life. Only silence and darkness remained.

Seeing that, a satisfied smirk formed on the face of the monstrous deity.

"Ah, Eternal Peace."
