In the next second, Wilbur''s fist collided with the shadowy figure''s fist. A powerful white light surged like a tidal wave, instantly sweeping through the area. The shadowy figure''s power was neutralized, and he stood there calmly. Then, the shadowy figure lifted his head and looked at Wilbur, saying, "Did you see that? If the one who fought you just now wasn''t a Messenger from the Light World, they would have been utterly obliterated."


    With that, the shadowy figure withdrew his right hand. Wilbur frowned and asked, "What... What exactly is going on? What is a Messenger from the Light World? And wasn''t the power you used just now the power of destruction?"


    The shadowy figure felt a wave of frustration and said, "Didn''t I already exin? Light and darkness are inseparable. The power of light can annihte all phantoms formed by the power of destruction. Whether a person is good or evil, that''s the true difference between light and darkness."


    In truth, the Light World was not thatplicated. If someone was kind-hearted, they would be born on the side of light. If they had a malicious heart, they would be born on the side of darkness.


    But Earth was a lower dimension. In fact, it was on the lower to middle level among the lower dimensions. Therefore, here, it was hard to distinguish between good and evil from appearances alone.


    Wilbur spoke calmly, "So, light and darkness are born from one''s heart. I understand that much. Do we still need to continue fighting?"


    The shadowy figure nced at Wilbur and said, "There''s no need. You have passed my test. You may proceed. The Child of Light is waiting for you inside."


    "Is that really it? Am I truly allowed to go on?" Wilbur asked, puzzled.


    "Of course. Do you need me to invite you in formally? Don''t push your luck."


    "I understand. Thank you."


    Feeling resigned, Wilbur continued forward. The shadowy figure watched him leave and sighed inwardly. If they could wait a few more decades, the Child of Light might find a better candidate. But unfortunately, there was not enough time. Thus, Wilbur was chosen.


    Now, Wilbur was Earth''sst hope. The shadowy figure clenched his fists with a hint of sadness in his eyes and murmured, "The Child of Light sacrificed himself, leaving this world with hope. Wilbur, I hope you won''t disappoint him."


    The lower dimensions were where the evil gods invaded. If it fell entirely under their control, the rules of the middle dimensions would copse next. To ensure the survival of all spaces, the Child of Light from the Light World sacrificed himself.


    As Wilbur ventured deeper into the forest, with one step forward, the forest suddenly vanished, and Wilbur found himself standing on a vast, floating circr tform. At the north, south, east, and west points of the tform sat identical men in white robes, their expressions solemn.


    Those men were meditating with their legs crossed. As soon as Wilbur appeared, all four men transformed into beams of white light, converging toward the center. Momentster, one man appeared on the central stone tform.


    Right after that, the man slowly opened his eyes. Wilbur could feel a unique aura of light emanating from him. He instinctively fell to his knees, with tears streaming down his face as he blurted out, "I, Wilbur Penn, offer my greeting to the Child of Light."


    "My destined one, you have finally arrived. I hope this time you won''t let me down."


    The Child of Light closed his eyes gently and spoke in a soft voice, "I can sense your sincerity. You are indeed the most suitable candidate. Now, if you can defeat my avatar, I will entrust you with the mission to save this world."


    With those words, the Child of Light''s avatar, a translucent figure, appeared behind him. In the next moment, the Child of Light turned his gaze toward Wilbur. Child of Light then appeared in front of Wilbur in a sh, hurling a ball of light at him. Seeing this, Wilbur quickly extended his left hand to intercept the attack. Soon, the energy from the light ball was absorbed by Wilbur''s Light Gloves. In the next instant, the Child of Light''s right hand grasped Wilbur''s left hand, locking their hands together tightly.


    At this point, Wilbur was surprised to notice that the Child of Light was also wearing a pair of Light Gloves. They began spinning, and Wilbur could clearly feel his energy rapidly draining away.
