Blasphemy Wizard by Deceit World

"You see the 'village chief' suddenly freeze, and the long, centipede-like line behind him shudders violently, with faint signs of fracturing and disintegration."

"Under the blessing of the 'Lord of Blasphemy' trait,

"the power of the 'Hand of Destiny' has become extraordinarily strong."

"Unfortunately,

"your opponent this time is not the ordinary, flesh-twisting 'Blasphemous Wizards' you encountered upon entering the 'Land of Truth' but the one who stands at the pinnacle of all wizards—a shepherd of gods who serve as 'Cosmic Pillars,' the master of the 'Hidden,' the Wizard King."

"Though He has already fallen, because He tore off a symbolic portion of 'death' from the 'Lord of the River of Death' and hid within its tributaries, He continues to operate in the Ancient Village in the guise of the deceased, retaining many features as a 'pillar.'

"You see the 'village chief' utter ancient whispers, his figure gradually becoming illusory, momentarily escaping the grasp of fate."

"Is this even possible?"

"The 'Hidden' symbolism is way too overpowered."

"You can't help but grumble, because at this moment, the Destiny Threads no longer carry a strand belonging to the 'Hidden Wizard King.'"

"The ravings, briefly interrupted, resume in your mind."

"You underestimate Him."

"You underestimate the primeval Cosmic Creator who birthed the entire universe in the boundless Void where no concept exists."

"He is the Beginning, the End, the origin of all Divinity. He is the Creator of the cosmos and the most potent consciousness in the Void. All gods originate from Him, and so too do their ends."

"Oh, my magnificent Lord,

"the moment you sought to steal all 'fate' symbols, the seeds of misfortune were already sown."

...

"At last, the truth is revealed."

Yang Qizhou glances at the text displayed on his phone, surprisingly calm, with no trace of astonishment or shock.

"In the preceding passages, while the existence of the Cosmic Creator was never explicitly stated, there were numerous veiled hints."

"For instance, the 'King of Giant Gods,' Okas, said... 'All things possess Divinity.'"

"Or, in 'Asgard'... when the 'King of Nature,' consumed by Divinity, expressed self-awareness after surpassing the Cosmic Pillars."

"And so forth,

"it merely took until now to confirm."

"This matter can be set aside for the moment. What's most pressing now is the pollution brought by the revelation of the 'Cosmic Creator' and the malice seeping from the 'King of Truth Ignorance.'"

"At this moment,

within the Spiritual World, the illusory tide has already engulfed most of Yang Qizhou's spiritual self-awareness. An indescribable aura flows through the Spiritual World,

"yet oddly...

Yang Qizhou feels no discomfort—in fact, there's a warm and radiant sensation."

"Could it be that the pollution corresponding to the 'Cosmic Creator' level doesn't cause erosion, avoiding catastrophic consequences?"

"Just as this thought flickers in his mind, Yang Qizhou quickly dismisses it—he still recalls the woeful fate of the Moonlight Ancient God, who succumbed to the erosion of the 'Divine Curse,' and remembers the 'King of Nature' driven mad in despair from embracing Divinity, ultimately consumed by it."

"But he himself feels completely unaffected—what could this mean?"

Yang Qizhou ponders for a long time but cannot discern the reason. He chooses to credit it to the 'Lord of Blasphemy' trait, shielding him from the harm wrought by the 'Divine Curse.'

"The text continues to update,

"as the 'Hidden Wizard King' elaborates on the cause of the 'Lord of Blasphemy's' fall, prompting Yang Qizhou to refocus his attention on the phone."

...

"The Cosmic Creator, is this the true face of the 'Divine Curse' and the reality behind the origin of the world?"

"As you listen to the 'Hidden Wizard King' narrate, countless images flash through your mind... the Moonlight Ancient God, the King of Nature, the Dragon of Greed, the Nameless Land, and so forth."

"Your reaction is surprisingly composed."

"Even as the expected pollution arrives in the Spiritual World—a tide breaking boundaries, flooding into the depths of your spiritual root—you feel no pain, only an inexplicable warmth."

"Is it the trait of the 'Lord of Blasphemy' that gifted you insight into the essence of the 'Old King,' enabling resistance against the illusory tide's erosion?"

"Or perhaps... you've already gone mad without realizing it."

"You are engulfed by deep confusion."

"The fallen 'Hidden Wizard King,' seemingly noticing the pollution from the 'pillar level' corroding you, expects you to endure excruciating suffering. The 'village chief's' aged face contorts into something monstrous and terrifying."

"He proceeds to explain:

"The moment you sought to steal all 'fate' symbols, the seeds of misfortune were already planted."

"You thought that with the matter derived from the Void—that is, the 'Ancient Roots,' its isolating property—you could resist the eternal will of the 'Cosmic Creator,' seize symbols, claim authority, and usurp the divine throne of the 'Cosmic Creator.'"

"But alas,

"you were gravely mistaken."

"The Cosmic Creator, the most potent consciousness in the Void—even while manifesting as the cosmos—possesses a will so indomitable that no 'Ancient Roots' can isolate it. After you ascended beyond the 'pillars level' to occupy all the 'fate' symbols, the 'Cosmic Creator's' will began to inexorably revive within you."

"To preserve yourself, you waged an eternal struggle against the will of the 'Cosmic Creator.' In desperation, you attempted to alter the fate of the 'Correct Wizard King,' sealing the pollution within His body. Yet you underestimated the intensity of the Creator's revival—it directly supplanted the 'Correct' will."

"Eventually, under the arrangement of the 'Correct'—oh no, it should be the 'Cosmic Creator'—the 'Day of Fallen' arrived, you succumbed, and your half-epoch reign came to an end."

...

"So that's how it is,

"no wonder the 'Correct Wizard King,' despite being at the level of a Cosmic Pillar, was able to secretly orchestrate the 'Day of Fallen,' leading to the demise of the 'Lord of Blasphemy.' It turns out the 'Correct Wizard King' was never truly the 'Correct Wizard King'—He had long since been polluted by the 'Cosmic Creator.'

"Wait a moment..."

Yang Qizhou suddenly recalls something, narrowing his eyes as he mutters to himself, "I remember the earlier storyline revealed that the 'Correct Wizard King' didn't perish during the 'Day of Fallen' but merely suffered severe injuries and remains in slumber within the Land of Truth."

"Which raises the question…

"Is the currently slumbering 'Correct Wizard King' the original 'Correct Wizard King,' or the 'Cosmic Creator' Himself?"

"Perhaps the Game Character, upon returning to the throne of the 'Lord of Blasphemy,' might encounter Him."

Yang Qizhou's thoughts spiral, a creeping sensation crawling over his scalp.

"The text continues to auto-update,

...

"The 'Hidden Wizard King' exhales deeply after finishing, as though years of pent-up resentment had finally been released."

"Then,

"He gazes at you using the aged, twisted face of the 'village chief,' seemingly waiting for something."

"Time stretches on,"

"as you digest the information divulged by the 'Hidden Wizard King,' your mind teeming with speculation as you await His continued narration, but after an extended silence, the 'Hidden Wizard King' speaks no further."

"And so...

"You stare at Him, and He returns your stare. Both sides remain silent for a long while."

"At last, the 'Hidden Wizard King' erupts, His expression stiffening, His voice seething with disbelief as He exclaims… How is this possible, how is this possible—that the Void-derived pollution, the trait of the 'Divine Curse,' has yet to manifest in you."

"Despite you clearly not having reached the 'Old King' level, how could you resist the Cosmic Creator's corrosion."
