[Hexagram of Heaven and Earth].

The battlefield erupted into a maelstrom of elemental fury. Fire blazed, metal clashed, the earth quaked, plants surged, water crashed, ice crackled, the wind howled, and lightning struck with relentless force. The eight elements, summoned by Fuxi's final spell, roared to life, each one transforming into a towering elemental creature. The attacker, caught off guard by the sudden onslaught, found himself besieged by these powerful manifestations of nature's wrath.

"What formation is this!!?!" n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Chaos engulfed the cave as the elemental beings closed in on the assailant.

Emery's consciousness, still tethered to the memory, was jolted by a sudden shift. To his astonishment, he felt himself being pulled away from Fuxi's perspective. His awareness soared, leaving the sage's dying body and slipping into Damo's lifeless form, hidden on the cave floor.

From this new vantage point, Emery witnessed the sheer might of Fuxi's spell. The cosmos grand magus, despite his overwhelming power, was forced onto the defensive, battered by the relentless assault of the elemental creatures.

For a fleeting moment, it seemed as though Fuxi's final stand might succeed. The once-dominant attacker was pushed to the brink, his defenses crumbling under the onslaught. But as the battle raged on, Emery could sense the inevitable.

Fuxi's soul, drained of its last reserves of strength, began to fade.

The Eastern Sage, defiance until the very end, finally fell before Emery's eyes, his soul dissipating into the ether, leaving behind nothing but a faint echo of his final resolve.

Unfortunately, Fuxi's final attempt to protect Damo did not go unnoticed. The attacker, sensing the remnants of the sage's will lingering within the young monk, advanced with deadly intent.

Just as he was about to obliterate the last vestiges of Fuxi's spirit, the ground beneath them trembled violently. It was as if the entire forest had suddenly awakened, driven by some ancient force.

Roots burst from the earth, wrapping themselves around Damo's body in a protective cocoon. The trees bent and swayed, their branches reaching down as if to shield him from harm. The ground itself seemed to come alive, pulling Damo downwards, deep into the safety of the earth.

Around two dozen people gathered to pay their respects, a reflection of how few truly knew the sage who often preferred solitude.

Marc Anthony, accompanied by Octavius, the leader of the Roman Empire, made a solemn appearance. From Brittania, Glita and Gwyneth came to honor the sage. Barndt and two Valkyries from the Vanir also attended, representing their people.

Thrax arrived with two of the five Izta widows, making the journey from Terra City to honor Fuxi's memory. Tessa accompanied them, her presence a quiet but sincere expression of condolence. Marc Anthony, accompanied by Octavius, the leader of the Roman Empire, made a solemn appearance. From Brittania, Glita and Gwyneth came to honor the sage. Barndt and two Valkyries from the Vanir also attended, representing their people.

From the academy, four young acolytes—Ha Ron, KingRig, Titus, and Armenius—returned specifically for the ceremony. Among the attendees was Shinta, who had traveled to Earth for the first time.

Ashaka stepped forward to deliver the final tribute. His voice, steady but filled with emotion, carried across the gathering.

"My master, Fuxi, has lived for over 2,000 years. He was a warrior, a scholar, a teacher, a father, and a sage. He was the best among us." Ashaka paused, his gaze drifting to the serene lake saying. "Master, I wish you a reincarnation that freed you from pain and suffering."

The ceremony was marked by a solemn and respectful air as each person paid their last respects to the Eastern Sage, the last of the first-generation acolytes.

A piercing, heart-wrenching cry from Naya shattered the stillness, her anguished wail echoing across the landscape, in contrast, Damo stood silent through the whole process.

Emery and the others, their hearts heavy with sorrow and anger, clenched their fists in resolve. They vowed to seek justice for their beloved senior.
