At this critical juncture, a brilliant torrent of light erupted from the heart of the lotus. Carrying an indescribable power, the light instantly shattered the sigil array constructed by the Holy Mother of Silver Lotus. Under the impact, the massive, three-dimensional array fractured like fragile glass, dissolving into countless shimmering points of light that vanished into the void.
The Holy Mother of Silver Lotus let out a cry of frustration. Her phantom image trembled violently as she attempted to gather her strength once more. However, the Stardust Infant commanded the power of the Chaos Bell Tower, sending the remaining seventy-two Bronze Gears spinning at high velocity to form an impenetrable barrier, rendering the Holy Mother’s counterattack useless.
"Do you truly believe that you can control everything with this so-called ultimate form of the vessel project?" The Stardust Infant’s voice was filled with majesty, echoing throughout space and time. "You are mistaken. True power does not stem from manipulation or imprisonment, but from the awakening of life and the blossoming of free will."
