After arriving at this place emitting light, Roy was surprised to find that it was… a small piece of land!

This small land was about 100,000 square meters and was an irregular circle. But under the ground, there was no foundation at all. It was only a thin layer of grass.

On this layer of grass, not only was there a vibrant grassland, but there was also a small forest a distance away. The forest was full of tall trees with lush leaves. But strangely, there were no tree roots extending under the grass.

How should it be put? This feeling was like some kind of force had shoveled away a piece of grass and forest and put it here, but these plants that had lost their roots were still growing abnormally vigorously!

In the forest were some docile little animals. A deer roaming in the forest was chewing on the grass. Every time it gnawed off a piece, the grass would grow back after a while. The little squirrels jumping in the branches were picking pine cones agilely. It was the same with the pine cones. They recovered not long after being picked.

Moreover, no matter how these small animals ate, they didn’t seem to grow. At least in Roy’s observation, he didn’t see any large animals, so he could only use the explanation that they couldn’t grow.

However, this was nothing. The most ridiculous thing was the sunlight shining on the forest and grassland!

It should be impossible for a star or sun to exist in the dark Void, but the sunlight appeared here. Roy didn’t know where it came from, but it just shone warmly on this small world. This was how the light spots he saw earlier were emitted.

After waiting and observing carefully, Roy found that the angle of the sunlight wasn’t changing at all. This meant that the sunlight was fixed, and night wouldn’t occur in this small world.

If someone were to say that time had stopped in this small world, these small animals could move freely; but if someone were to say that time had not stopped, the phenomenon here couldn’t be explained at all, especially the sunlight. Since Roy could see it from afar, it meant that light was spreading out. But this spread seemed to have a distance limit, or rather, it was cut off halfway. Only when he was close to a certain extent could he discover this light.

All kinds of situations that defied common sense appeared here, making this small world even stranger.

Roy left the starship and tried to approach this small world. But when he flew a certain distance, he suddenly bumped into a barrier. Although this barrier wasn’t visible to the naked eye and didn’t exist in his spatial perception, it was like a touchable entity.

Perplexed, Roy slowly explored this barrier and then gradually discovered its shape. The outside of the small world was enveloped in a cubic barrier. The sky was cubic and enveloped the earth of this small world in a box.

How do I get in? Roy thought. He tried to spread his spiritual consciousness and tell Lilith, who might be inside, that he was here.

But after waiting for a long time, Roy didn’t receive a response from Lilith. Her calls echoed in his sea of consciousness as usual, guiding him… This made him think of a worse situation. Some things in the small world could be transmitted out, but things from the outside world might not necessarily be able to enter.

What should I do? Out of the logic of a demon’s thinking, Roy subconsciously punched the barrier with Chaos power, but it didn’t affect the barrier at all. Even when he increased the force of his punch, it was the same. The force of millions of tons couldn’t even cause a ripple on the barrier.

It seemed that violence couldn’t break through this place…

Floating in the Void, Roy began to think. If Lilith is really in this small world, then how did she enter?

There should be something that allowed her to pass through! In other words, there might be a key that can open this barrier!

But what could it be? Roy fell into deep thought. Bloodline? Demon identity? Or energy? For example, Chaos power? But he had already used it when he attacked the barrier just now. If this could open it, it would have opened long ago…

Finally, Roy thought that if this strange small world was really the final stop of the Creator, then could the key to opening this place be some kind of Legacy of the Creator?

Roy immediately thought of something—the Demon Bible!

The Demon Bible steles were scattered in the Abyss. Although these objects were very ordinary stones, high-level demons had always been collecting them. Roy had also obtained two, but he had never figured out how to use them, so he had left them in the system warehouse to collect dust.

At this moment, Roy suddenly realized that this item might be the key to opening the barrier here.

With the idea of giving it a try, Roy found a Demon Bible stele in the system space and placed it on the invisible barrier.

The next second, a sinking feeling came. Roy knew that he had succeeded. This Demon Bible stele really opened a gap in the incomparably solid barrier, and the size of the gap was about the same as the stele.

Surprised, Roy immediately turned into an energy body and entered through the gap.

After Roy entered, the Demon Bible stele quickly melted, and there wasn’t even any dust left as it suddenly disappeared.

This phenomenon made Roy’s heart skip a beat. He didn’t forget that it seemed impossible to enter and leave this place normally. If the stele disappeared, how could he get out?

Suppressing this doubt for the time being, Roy planned to find Lilith’s location first. When he shouted through his spiritual consciousness again, he finally received a response from Lilith.

“In the depths of the forest, come in!” Lilith’s thoughts didn’t have any surprise, as though she had expected Roy would come.

Roy wanted to fly over, but when he reached the edge of the land in the small world, he suddenly lost his buoyancy and fell!

It wasn’t only buoyancy. In fact, Roy no longer relied on air to fly. He relied on magic power to fly, but no matter how much magic power he used, he couldn’t fly here!

What a strange place… Roy thought. But this place was already strange enough, so he didn’t delve into it and walked into the forest.

When he walked into the forest, the small animals saw him, but they didn’t run away in panic. Instead, they looked at him curiously. A young deer even walked over and sniffed him.

Roy stretched out his hand and touched the deer. He found that its fur was smooth and warm to the touch. It was a real life, not some kind of illusion.

After moving forward for a while, Roy saw his destination. It was… a cabin in the forest!

This cabin was made of wood. It was quite large, but it looked simple and primitive. Curious, Roy walked forward and pushed open the door.

He lowered his head and walked into the cabin. He found Lilith sitting with her legs crossed at a wooden table and holding a white ceramic cup in her hand, drinking some unknown drink. What she was wearing was not armor but nightgown-like clothing. Her entire being exuded a lazy vibe.

After seeing Roy, she nodded. “Welcome.”

Her tone was as normal, as if a neighbor had come to the door…

“What exactly is this place?” Roy asked curiously. “Don’t tell me that this is the place of the Creator you’re pursuing?”

Lilith looked at him in amusement and asked, “Why not? In your impression, must the place where the Creator stayed be a majestic temple, a glorious world?”

Roy was speechless for a long time before saying, “The difference is too great…”

Lilith put down her cup and waved at Roy. “Don’t maintain your height here. Shrink down a little, or it won’t fit in with this place.”

Roy nodded. After he shrank to the height of an ordinary person, Lilith continued, “This is the Promised Land, the last stop of the Creator in the world. Unfortunately, when I found this place, the Creator had already left. Only this place still retains its original appearance…”

“Is that so? That’s a pity…” Roy nodded. He knew that Lilith had always wanted to see the Creator one last time, but this wish seemed to have failed.

But Lilith didn’t look disappointed. Instead, she said with a satisfied expression, “It’s enough. This small house was left behind by my father, and this small world will be my everything from now on.”

“Do you want to stay here forever?” Roy asked in surprise.

“Of course. Why not?” Lilith smiled. “Feats like creating worlds and destroying worlds have nothing to do with me, right? I’m just a daughter pursuing my father’s footprints…”

Roy didn’t know what to say and just nodded. “So, is this the place the Deadly Sin Demon Kings who disappeared are looking for?”

“Yes, and no!” Lilith thought for a moment. “They’re indeed looking for this place, but what they really want is my father’s power! Or rather, the creation relics left behind by my father!”

“That’s normal.” Roy nodded. “After all, they have ambitions.”

“Yes, ambition.” Lilith agreed. “They thought that after my father left, there would definitely be something about the power of the Creator left behind, so they tirelessly searched for it, wanting to obtain power comparable to the Creator’s and even become the next Creator. In the end, they even became a little crazy…”

“Then, did they find this place?” Roy asked curiously.

Lilith shook her head and denied firmly. “No! They couldn’t even finish the journey and became lost in the Void. If people want to get here, they can’t have desires in their hearts. Otherwise, they won’t be able to find this Promised Land even after tens of billions of years!”

Roy gasped. There’s actually such a thing?!

No wonder the Deadly Sin Demon Kings were lost in the Void. According to Lilith, not to mention that they didn’t have Chaos power to travel through the Void, even with the protection of Chaos power, they wouldn’t be able to reach here.

After thinking about it, Roy couldn’t help rejoicing. Although he had come here after receiving Lilith’s call, he had not been greedy about any Legacy of the Creator during the process. It was pure curiosity. Perhaps it was precisely because of this that he could successfully reach the other shore of the Void…

Yes, the other shore. This small world that suddenly appeared in the endless Void could only be described as the other shore…
