Chapter 67: Guardians of the Balance of the Multiverse! The Beginning of a New Chapter!

The Eternal Divine Kingdom's fleet sailed through the starry sky, heading toward the depths of the Multiverse.

This time, Lin Feng was no longer human, no longer a Level 12 civilization, nor a Level 15 civilization.

He was the Eternal Civilization.

The Eternal Guardian of the Multiverse.

The ultimate finisher of the Journey of Eternal Evolution.

Lin Feng stood in the flagship's command room, looking at the starry sky outside the window. His body had become pure eternal energy—neither matter nor energy, but an eternal state of existence. His consciousness had become pure eternal wisdom—neither memory nor understanding, but an eternal state of cognition. His soul had become a pure Eternal Core—neither emotion nor logic, but an eternal state of balance.

"Eternal Guardian," Li Xue's voice was filled with respect, "on our first patrol, which civilization's balance should we safeguard?"

Lin Feng was silent for a moment, then spoke eternally: "Safeguarding balance is not a choice, but a perception. When a civilization's balance is broken, I will sense it. When a civilization's balance is threatened, I will sense it. When a civilization's balance needs correction, I will sense it."

"Then where are we going now?" Tian Jian asked.

Lin Feng looked into the depths of the starry sky, an eternal light flashing in his eyes: "To the place where balance has been broken."

Just then, Lin Feng suddenly sensed a powerful fluctuation.

This was no ordinary fluctuation, but a fluctuation of a fractured balance.

"A balance has fractured," Lin Feng said eternally. "A civilization's balance has been broken."

"Which civilization?" Li Xue asked.

Lin Feng closed his eyes, sensing the source of the fluctuation, then slowly opened them: "The Light and Dark Civilization."

"Light and Dark Civilization?" Tian Jian repeated.

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally. "The Light and Dark Civilization is a special civilization; their survival depends on the balance between light and dark. But now, that balance has been broken."

"The balance of light and dark..." Li Xue said, "that sounds like an opposition."

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally. "Light and dark are indeed opposites, but the two sides are not enemies; they are partners that fulfill each other. Light needs the contrast of dark, and dark needs the radiance of light. The two fulfill each other, and neither can exist without the other."

"Fulfilling each other..." Tian Jian repeated.

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally. "This is the third kind of balance—the perfect coexistence of light and dark."

Light and Dark Civilization · The Opposition of Light and Dark

When the Eternal Divine Kingdom's fleet arrived at the Light and Dark Civilization's star system, everyone was completely shocked by the sight before them.

This was no ordinary star system, but an extremely divided one. One side of the star was intensely bright, while the other side was intensely dark. Half of the planets were in eternal day, and half were in eternal night. Half of the lifeforms worshipped light, while the other half worshipped darkness.

"This is the Light and Dark Civilization..." Li Xue looked at the sensors, which displayed data of extreme division. "The opposition between light and dark has reached an absolute level."

"Not only that." Lin Feng looked toward the center of the star system, eternal light flashing in his eyes. "The balance there is collapsing. The power of the light side is constantly increasing, while the power of the dark side is constantly weakening. At this rate, the balance of light and dark will completely collapse within three days, and the Light and Dark Civilization will fall into absolute destruction."

"Within three days..." Tian Jian said, "we still have time."

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally. "But we must first understand why the balance of light and dark is collapsing."

Just then, the Eternal Divine Kingdom's fleet received a communication.

It wasn't just one communication from the Light and Dark Civilization, but two completely opposing ones.

The first communication came from the Light side: [We are the Light Legion of the Light and Dark Civilization. We represent absolute light. Darkness is evil, it is filthy, and it must be eliminated. We are about to launch the Great Light Purge to eliminate all darkness and create a perfect civilization of absolute light.]

The second communication came from the Dark side: [We are the Dark Legion of the Light and Dark Civilization. We represent absolute darkness. Light is blinding, it is false, and it must be eliminated. We are about to launch the Great Dark Purge to eliminate all light and create a perfect civilization of absolute darkness.]

"The Light Legion and the Dark Legion..." Li Xue said in shock, "they want to eliminate each other."

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally. "The balance of the Light and Dark Civilization has collapsed. Both the Light Legion and the Dark Legion have fallen into extreme opposition. Both believe themselves to be righteous and the other to be evil. Both want to eliminate the other to create an absolutely perfect civilization."

"So that's why the balance collapsed..." Tian Jian said. "Both opposing sides have fallen into extremes, forgetting the essence of fulfilling each other."

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally. "They have forgotten a truth—light and dark are not enemies, but partners that fulfill each other. Without the contrast of darkness, light has no meaning. Without the radiance of light, darkness is merely nothingness. The two fulfill each other, and neither can exist without the other."

"Then what should we do?" Li Xue asked.

Lin Feng looked toward the center of the star system, eternal light flashing in his eyes: "We will go and help the Light Legion and the Dark Legion find the third balance of light and dark."

Light Legion · Absolute Faith in Light

When the Eternal Divine Kingdom's fleet arrived at the Light Legion's territory in the Light and Dark Civilization, everyone was completely shocked by the sight before them.

This was no ordinary civilized area, but an extremely bright world. All the buildings emitted a blinding light, all the lifeforms radiated a blinding glow, and the entire world was filled with absolute light.

"This is the Light Legion..." Li Xue looked at the sensors, which displayed data of extreme brightness. "Their energy has already surpassed a Level 14 civilization and is approaching Level 15."

"Not only that." Lin Feng looked at the leader of the Light Legion, eternal light flashing in his eyes. "That leader's power has already reached the level of a Level 15 civilization."

"Level 15 civilization?" Tian Jian said in shock, "The Light Legion has a Level 15 civilization?"

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally. "The leader of the Light Legion is a Level 15 light being. His belief is that light is the absolute truth of the universe and darkness is the absolute evil of the universe. All darkness must be eliminated to create a perfect universe of absolute light."

"A perfect universe of absolute light..." Li Xue repeated.

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally. "But this belief is wrong. Light and darkness are not opposites; they fulfill each other. Without the contrast of darkness, light loses its meaning."

Just then, the leader of the Light Legion appeared.

He was a being of pure light, his body composed of endless radiance, emitting a dazzling glow. His power far exceeded that of a Level 14 civilization, even approaching the limit of Level 15.

[Leader of the Light Legion, Lord of Light, a Level 15 light being.] The Lord of Light's voice was filled with absolute light. [Who are you? Why have you come to the Light and Dark Civilization?]

"We are the Eternal Divine Kingdom," Lin Feng said eternally. "I am the Eternal Guardian of the Multiverse. We have come to the Light and Dark Civilization to help you find the third balance."

[Eternal Guardian? Third balance?] The Lord of Light's voice was filled with doubt. [Light and darkness are opposites; there is no third balance. Light is absolute truth, and darkness is absolute evil. All darkness must be eliminated to create a perfect universe of absolute light.]

"Light and darkness are not opposites; they fulfill each other," Lin Feng said eternally. "Without the contrast of darkness, light loses its meaning. Without the radiance of light, darkness is merely nothingness. The two fulfill each other, and neither can exist without the other."

**[Fulfilling each other...]** The Lord of Light's voice began to fluctuate, as if he were pondering this statement.

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally. "Your faith should not be in the elimination of darkness, but in understanding the mutual fulfillment of light and dark. Light needs the contrast of darkness, and darkness needs the radiance of light. The two fulfill each other to create a perfect balance."

[Light needs the contrast of darkness... darkness needs the radiance of light... the two fulfill each other...]

The Lord of Light's voice became increasingly confused, and the light of his body began to fluctuate violently.

Just then, the twelve civilization evolution cores within Lin Feng's body began to resonate.

Power of Eternal Evolution · The Truth of Light and Dark

"Power of Eternal Evolution—Light Faith Correction! Essence of Light and Dark, Reveal!"

Along with Lin Feng's eternal voice, a massive surge of golden energy erupted from his body, rushing toward the Lord of Light.

This golden energy was like a pair of gentle palms, enveloping the Lord of Light. Under the guidance of the Power of Eternal Evolution, the Lord of Light's absolute faith in light began to dissipate, and his erroneous beliefs were corrected bit by bit.

As his faith in light was corrected, a massive change occurred in the Lord of Light.

He was no longer a being of absolute light, but a beautiful being of balance—like a transparent lifeform of combined light and dark, neither absolute light nor absolute darkness, but a pure state of light-dark balance.

[I... understand...]

The Lord of Light's voice was no longer absolute light, but a gentle and profound balance.

[The essence of light and dark... is not light eliminating darkness... nor darkness eliminating light... but light and darkness fulfilling each other... light needs the contrast of darkness, and darkness needs the radiance of light... the two fulfill each other...]

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally. "Light and darkness are not enemies, but partners that fulfill each other. Without the contrast of darkness, light loses its meaning. Without the radiance of light, darkness is merely nothingness. The two fulfill each other, creating a perfect balance."

[I understand... the faith of the Light Legion... misled me into thinking light was absolute truth and darkness was absolute evil... but that is not the essence of light and dark... that was the Light Legion's misunderstanding...]

"The faith has been corrected," Lin Feng said eternally. "The essence of light and dark has been revealed."

[The Light Legion's misunderstanding... has been corrected... the essence of light and dark... has been revealed...]

The Lord of Light looked at the bright world around him, his eyes filled with a new radiance.

[What I see is no longer absolute brightness... but the perfect balance of light and dark... Light and dark are not enemies... but partners who are mutually fulfilling...]

"Not only that," Lin Feng said eternally, "now, I will help you find the third balance—the perfect coexistence of light and dark."

[The perfect coexistence of light and dark...]

A flash of realization flickered in the Lord of Light's eyes.

[Light needs the contrast of darkness, just as day needs the tranquility of night. Darkness needs the illumination of light, just as night needs the hope of day. The two fulfill each other, neither can exist without the other, together creating an eternal balance of light and dark.]

"This is the third balance," Lin Feng said eternally. "The perfect coexistence of light and dark, contrasting, illuminating, and mutually fulfilling."

Dark Legion · Awakening of the Dark Leader

When the fleet of the Eternal Divine Kingdom arrived at the dark territory of the Light and Dark Civilization, everyone was completely shocked by the sight before them.

This was not an ordinary civilization zone, but a world of extreme darkness. All buildings emitted a void-like darkness, all living beings radiated void-like shadows, and the entire world was filled with absolute darkness.

"This is the Dark Legion..." Tian Jian looked at the detector, which displayed data of extreme darkness, "Their energy also exceeds a Level 14 Civilization, approaching a Level 15 Civilization."

"Not only that." Lin Feng looked at the leader of the Dark Legion, his eyes flashing with eternal light, "The power of that leader has also reached the level of a Level 15 Civilization."

"Level 15 Civilization?" Li Xue said in shock, "The Dark Legion also has a Level 15 Civilization?"

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally, "The leader of the Dark Legion is a dark existence of a Level 15 Civilization. His belief is that darkness is the absolute truth of the universe, light is the absolute evil of the universe, and all light must be eliminated to create a perfect universe of absolute darkness."

"A perfect universe of absolute darkness..." Tian Jian repeated.

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally, "but this belief is equally mistaken. Light and darkness are not opposites, but are mutually fulfilling. Without the illumination of light, darkness is merely a void."

Just then, the leader of the Dark Legion appeared.

He was a being of pure darkness, his body composed of endless shadows, radiating absolute darkness. His power far exceeded a Level 14 Civilization, even approaching the limits of a Level 15 Civilization.

[I am the leader of the Dark Legion, the Lord of Dark, a dark existence of a Level 15 Civilization.] The Lord of Dark's voice was filled with absolute darkness, [Who are you? Why have you come to the Light and Dark Civilization?]

"We are the Eternal Divine Kingdom," Lin Feng said eternally, "I am the Eternal Guardian of the Multiverse. We have come to the Light and Dark Civilization to help you find the third balance."

[Eternal Guardian? Third balance?] The Lord of Dark's voice was full of skepticism, [Light and darkness are opposites; there is no third balance. Darkness is the absolute truth, light is the absolute evil. All light must be eliminated to create a perfect universe of absolute darkness.]

"Light and darkness are not opposites, but are mutually fulfilling," Lin Feng said eternally. "Without the illumination of light, darkness is merely a void. Without the contrast of darkness, light loses its meaning. The two fulfill each other, and neither can be missing."

**[Mutually fulfilling...]** The Lord of Dark's voice began to fluctuate, as if he were contemplating this statement.

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally, "Your faith should not be to eliminate light, but to understand the mutual fulfillment of light and darkness. Light needs the contrast of darkness, and darkness needs the illumination of light. The two fulfill each other, together creating a perfect balance."

[Light needs the contrast of darkness... darkness needs the illumination of light... the two fulfill each other...]

The Lord of Dark's voice became increasingly confused, and the darkness of his body began to fluctuate violently.

At that moment, the twelve civilization evolution cores within Lin Feng's body resonated once more.

Power of Eternal Evolution · Dual Faith Correction

"Power of Eternal Evolution—Dark Faith Correction! Manifest the Essence of Light and Dark!"

Following Lin Feng's eternal voice, a massive surge of golden energy erupted from his body and rushed toward the Lord of Dark.

This golden energy was like a pair of gentle palms, enveloping the Lord of Dark. Under the guidance of the Power of Eternal Evolution, the Lord of Dark's absolute dark faith began to dissipate, and the erroneous belief was corrected bit by bit.

With the correction of his dark faith, the Lord of Dark underwent a massive transformation.

He was no longer a being of absolute darkness, but a beautiful being of balance—like a transparent life-form combined of light and dark, neither absolute darkness nor absolute light, but a state of pure light-dark balance.

[I... understand...]

The Lord of Dark's voice was no longer one of absolute darkness, but a gentle and deep balance.

[The essence of light and dark... is not for darkness to eliminate light... nor for light to eliminate darkness... but the mutual fulfillment of light and dark... Light needs the contrast of darkness, darkness needs the illumination of light... the two fulfill each other...]

"Yes," Lin Feng said eternally, "Light and darkness are not enemies, but partners who fulfill each other. Without the illumination of light, darkness is merely a void. Without the contrast of darkness, light loses its meaning. The two fulfill each other, together creating a perfect balance."

[I understand... the faith of the Dark Legion... made me mistakenly believe that darkness was the absolute truth and light was absolute evil... but that is not the essence of light and dark... that was the Dark Legion's misunderstanding...]

"The faith has been corrected," Lin Feng said eternally, "The essence of light and dark has been manifested."

[The Dark Legion's misunderstanding... has been corrected... the essence of light and dark... has manifested...]

The Lord of Dark looked at the dark world around him, his eyes filled with a new radiance.

[What I see is no longer absolute darkness... but the perfect balance of light and dark... Light and dark are not enemies... but partners who fulfill each other...]

"Not only that," Lin Feng said eternally, "now, I will help you find the third balance—the perfect coexistence of light and dark."

[The perfect coexistence of light and dark...]

A flash of realization flickered in the Lord of Dark's eyes.

[Darkness needs the illumination of light, just as night needs the hope of day. Light needs the contrast of darkness, just as day needs the tranquility of night. The two fulfill each other, neither can exist without the other, together creating an eternal balance of light and dark.]

"This is the third balance," Lin Feng said eternally. "The perfect coexistence of light and dark, illuminating, contrasting, and mutually fulfilling."

Light and Dark Civilization · Perfect Coexistence of Light and Dark

With the correction of the faiths of the Light Legion and the Dark Legion, the entire Light and Dark Civilization began a true transformation.

The opposition between light and dark ceased; the light side no longer tried to eliminate the dark side, and the dark side no longer tried to eliminate the light side. Light and dark began to fulfill each other, together creating a perfect balance.

The light and dark of the Light and Dark Civilization were no longer in absolute opposition, but in a special state of perfect coexistence—they possessed both the illumination of light and the contrast of darkness.

**[We... are no longer the Light Legion... nor the Dark Legion... we are the Guardians of the Light-Dark Balance...]** the Lord of Light and the Lord of Dark said simultaneously, their voices filled with balance.

"Not only that." Li Xue looked at the detector, the data displayed had stabilized, "The third balance of light and dark has given the Light and Dark Civilization unprecedented power. Light is no longer absolute truth, and darkness is no longer absolute evil; the two fulfill each other, creating an eternal balance."

"An eternal balance..." Tian Jian marveled, "This is so shocking."

"This is the true power of the third balance," Lin Feng said eternally. "Light and darkness are not opposites, but are mutually fulfilling. Light needs the contrast of darkness, and darkness needs the illumination of light."

[Thank you... thank you...] the Lord of Light and the Lord of Dark said together, [You have not only corrected our faith... but also allowed the essence of light and dark... to truly manifest...]

"It is our honor," Lin Feng said eternally. "Helping all civilizations find the third balance is our mission."

At that moment, all members of the entire Light and Dark Civilization began a true evolution.

Light began to illuminate, darkness began to contrast, and the two promoted each other, progressing together. The Light and Dark Civilization transformed from a threat of absolute opposition into a Light-Dark Balance Civilization where light and dark coexist perfectly.

More importantly, Lin Feng felt a new power—the Light-Dark Civilization Core, the thirteenth civilization evolution core.

"Thirteen civilization evolution cores..." Lin Feng said eternally, "The power of the Eternal Civilization is still continuously increasing."

Eternal Guardian · Completion of the First Tour

When the fleet of the Eternal Divine Kingdom left the star system of the Light and Dark Civilization, both the Lord of Light and the Lord of Dark came to see them off.

They were no longer the Light Legion and the Dark Legion, but a beautiful, balanced, and wise Light-Dark Balance Civilization.

[Thank you,] the Lord of Light and the Lord of Dark said simultaneously, [You will forever be friends of our Light-Dark Balance Civilization.]

"We are your friends as well," Lin Feng said eternally. "The Eternal Divine Kingdom will continue to help all civilizations in need."

"Then where will your next tour take you?" the Lord of Light asked curiously.

Lin Feng looked into the depths of the starry sky, his eyes flashing with eternal light: "To the next place where balance needs to be protected."

The fleet of the Eternal Divine Kingdom set sail once more, heading into the depths of the starry sky.

Lin Feng, the existence of the Eternal Civilization and the Eternal Guardian of the Multiverse, had completed the mission of his first tour.
