Chapter 1128
Chapter 1128
Walking on a path woven with silver threads, Ain's expression became increasingly uneasy.
In a daze, she remembered that she had also seen similar scenes, but she had always thought it was just absurd dreams from her childhood.
Faceless deity.
Like a silver-white road that seems to extend all the way to the end of the world, no matter how you walk, you can't reach the destination.
It doesn't resemble any known world's peculiar scenery, it's just like something out of a fairy tale.
Ah, yes, she has been here before, probably when she was even younger than Adley. She had also touched that puppet by the bedside, hugged it while sleeping, and then drowsily arrived in this silver-white world.
Underfoot, there is an endless expanse of silver-white, devoid of any impurities.
Walking here feels like walking on clouds, filled with a taste completely different from reality.
She has been here, and not just once.
However, she has always considered this place as a dream, never realizing that it is part of reality.
"Lord Silver Dragon, is this place..." Ain, who is no longer a child, gathered the courage to ask Yun Xi, who might be the only one who knows the truth.
The faceless evil god was a story she made up to scare Adley before bed, little did she know that the story would become real.
"Hmm, this is the inside of a puppet, it's a special technique," Yun Xi couldn't understand how this technique was achieved, maybe that's what makes the puppet maker special.
Despite being the size of a palm, the puppet had a small world inside, a world woven with countless threads that were all connected.
However, this world seemed to lack vitality, it was simply incredibly magnificent, intricate, and filled with the beauty of composition that only the puppet maker could perceive.
After about five minutes of walking, Yun Xi voluntarily stopped.
Everything here was silver-white.
The boundary between the sky and the earth didn't exist in this world at all. Walking in this infinite silver-white world felt like moving towards an endless unknown.
Ain, in the beginning, saw this world as a dream.
In the first few attempts, she tried to walk here, hoping to find an end or something, but soon realized that it was an impossible task to complete.
Eventually, she simply fell asleep in this silver-white world.
After all, no matter which way you go, it's just a waste of time. It's better to sleep well in this soft and white world.
On the other hand, Adley, who had been scared by her sister's story about the faceless evil god, cried loudly in this world.
Whether sleeping in or crying, they will all leave this world at some point, just like waking up from a dream.
However, Ain, who always cuddles her puppet before sleep, thought it was just a dream. Adley, who went missing in the warehouse, genuinely believed in the strangeness of the faceless evil god.
Only Yun Xi understood what it was from the beginning.
Perhaps because he was the only puppet maker here, only a true puppet maker could understand the hidden power in this puppet.
This also includes finding a way to solve the infinite maze.
"You are one, but also many."
"You are the beginning, but also the end."
Yun Xi bent down and searched for a while, then found a transparent thread from the seemingly identical silver-white threads.
This is the "string" of this world, the fabric that weaves the truths of everything in the world.
Yun Xi had only seen this kind of fabric in the Grand Library of the White Lotus Sword Palace. It is said to be woven by the goddess on the loom of destiny to create the rules of the world. It is also the highest level material in the Endless God's Domain.
With just one thread like this, a garment of the Original God Weapon level can be made. It is as light as silk and has a defense level equivalent to heavy armor made of mithril.
It is said that the original use of this silk thread was to make underwear for female goddesses.
Well, it's really just a legend.
Now, Yun Xi can be 100% sure that this is not a product of Sia's world. The Creator God's Sword and Sky Beast would not have such a thing.
Even in the Endless God's Domain, after the Twilight of the Gods war, this fate thread, used for weaving the fabric, has almost disappeared.
The only remaining legend-ranked strong being who can still produce this fate thread is the Fate Three Goddesses whom Yun Xi once encountered in the Starry Sky Chess game in the Endless God's Domain.
Uld, Violet, Cindy, known as the "Fates of Norlan," were three goddesses of destiny. Their special weapon was the "Fate Weaving Machine" that could shape destinies.
According to hearsay, most of the underwear worn by legendary female gods was handmade by the three of them.
In terms of the preciousness of the materials used, this puppet had an extraordinary value that cannot be overstated.
In the entire world of Sia, there probably couldn't be a puppet more valuable than this.
"Follow the line." After spotting the transparent thread mixed among millions of silver threads, Yun Xi pulled it out from the path.
It seemed to be the enigmatic clue left by the puppet maker who created this puppet, only to be discovered by those with extraordinary intuition and sensitivity.
It had been here all along, like a marker, waiting to be found by someone.
Ain didn't find it, nor did Adley, or any of the previous owners of this puppet, until Yun Xi arrived here.
With a clear landmark, the next steps became much simpler.
The never-ending path is actually just the thread looping around. The seemingly unchanging ground is actually constantly changing.
If it weren't for seeing the thread in their hands constantly changing direction, Yun Xi probably wouldn't be able to see the true face of this world.
Essentially, this is a never-ending, non-repeating maze made of threads, with countless possible answers.
For those who don't understand the key, it would take a thousand years, ten thousand years, and they still wouldn't be able to find a way out. But once they find the correct answer, everything becomes clear.
Holding the strings of the world in his hand, Yun Xi, along with Ain and Adley, walked to the center of the maze.
In truth, this maze isn't very big, it's just the infinite changing directions and positions that make it impossible to see its true form.
Just like how ants can never understand the concept of three-dimensional space, those who can't find the strings of the world will never see the center of the maze.
"Deity without a face." Yun Xi looked up and saw the object sleeping in the center of the maze. It was the first time he truly felt that Ain's description was so fitting.
Within the enormous silver screen, there stood a giant silver figure without a face, woven from countless threads.
Faceless and featureless.
Heartless and soulless.
Blank puppet.
