Chapter 502 This is the devil, the real devil

"it's over."

Lu Wenwu took a deep breath and exhaled heavily, as if to clear away all the boredom of the past few days.

"What?" Lin Yingfei was a little confused. "What's over?"

"The endless slaughter and the civil war caused by the divine weapon must end."

Lu Wenwu sat down and took out an egg-filled pancake and started eating.

"I have destroyed all the divine weapons. There will be no more battles caused by losing control. From now on, enjoy your life."

“.”

Lin Yingfei opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

But after a few seconds of silence, he bowed to Lu Wenwu, turned around and joined the ranks of rescuing the surviving warriors.

"Shit shoveler, do you really think this is all over?"

Xiaobao walked over with an elegant cat-like gait, but his face did not have the arrogance and disdain of the past.

"Destroying all the divine weapons will solve the problem? Is it that simple?"

"Perhaps we should also destroy the Mother Pool." Lu Wenwu said after a moment's thought, "We have eliminated all possible sources of disaster in this world. Isn't that enough?"

"If my guess is correct, this isn't enough, far from enough. No matter what we do, it will probably be in vain." Xiao Bao shook his head slightly. "Before we even entered, this world had already begun the countdown to destruction."

"You mean, with our methods, we can't save the world at all?" Lu Wenwu was a little puzzled.

"No, it's not us. No one can save this world. Once the True Demon's power reaches a certain level, it's irreversible, except for you." Xiao Bao said in a deep voice, "Remember the type of mission that Big Baldy mentioned to us before? If I'm not mistaken, we've chosen a destruction mission this time. We have to find a way to completely destroy this place."

“.”

Lu Wenwu hesitated, which was extremely rare. He was unwilling to believe this result.

They have worked hard here for five whole years, only to completely destroy this world?

This is too ridiculous!

Are the billions of lives on this continent going to be abandoned like this?

I just told Lin Yingfei that his new life was about to begin, and then it was going to be destroyed?

Xiaobao saw what Lu Wenwu was thinking and said, "You unearthed a lot of classics from those ruins before. At that time, you were very confused as to why the remaining cultivation manuals became weaker and weaker as the inheritance was destroyed, until now there is not even a single spiritual cultivation manual left, right?"

"Yes." Lu Wenwu nodded.

“That’s the problem.”

Xiaobao's voice was filled with regret.

"The True Demon's power has already infected at least 75% of this world. As a result, the life marks of the people born in this world have been completely contaminated, and they have lost all creative abilities."

"On the surface, they appear perfectly normal. But as long as you spend time with them, you'll discover they no longer understand what creativity and innovation are. They simply continue along their established paths."

"That means if you give them something, they can learn."

"But without a continuous infusion of new knowledge, the only thing that awaits them is degeneration, a decline to a pre-civilized state, complete loss of even civilization and wisdom, and a return to monkeys driven only by instinct."

"The gradual decline in the quality of the classics not only represents the weakening of this world and a decrease in its maximum endurance, but also represents a gradual decline in the creativity of the creatures in this world. Ultimately, this is what we see now."

"The few remaining formations were handed down from ancient times, the cultivation methods were handed down from ancient times, and all the food, clothing, and daily necessities were handed down from ancient times. After the complete disappearance of creativity, the progress of civilization has been regressing."

"Not to mention that no one among them can create a method for cultivating spiritual power, even the fact that their own martial arts system has not completely disappeared or lacked its upper layers can probably be attributed to the fact that the divine weapons need a constant supply of high-quality warriors to devour them."

"These warriors, let alone wanting to create a method to cultivate spiritual power, may not even realize that spiritual power can be cultivated, let alone that the martial arts system is lame."

"If things develop as I suspected, then the problem of the divine weapon that has been bothering you for so long will have a reason."

"The power of the True Demon will trigger the most primitive desires in living things. Since this world hasn't completely transformed, living things will still be able to maintain normal thinking and consciousness for a period of time."

"The clash between desire and reason leads to a lack of fundamental behavioral logic, which is the culprit that causes people to lose consciousness and turn into killing machines."

"Rather than saying that the ownerless divine weapon is the culprit that caused the civil war and the killing, it is better to say that the divine weapon is the catalyst that caused the civil war and the killing. It is like a wake-up call, which will accelerate the process of this logical recasting."

"If the transformation is completely complete, the result will be like the demon monk Shi Tian, ​​Gris, Zhao Changhe, and the others. They appear to be normal people, with normal thoughts that can be communicated, but the most fundamental logic in their hearts has been distorted."

"Those transformed by true demons are merely madmen in the guise of normal creatures. They are truly 'demons'. In their cognition, creation and reproduction are not the meaning of life, only destruction."

“.”

Xiaobao's explanation was met with Lu Wenwu's silence again.

Deadlock, no solution.

The fist that was once enough to solve all problems has now completely lost its effect for the first time.

This wasn't something he could solve by simply blowing something up.

"I've already destroyed the divine weapons. Can't I just let them continue like this?"

Lu Wenwu's voice was a little hoarse, with a strong sense of unwillingness and fatigue.

He looked at Xiaobao with a hint of hope in his eyes.

"After a period of time, this world will inevitably self-destruct. Can't we just wait for it to destroy itself?"

"Good question. What about Gris? He has the coordinates of this world."

Xiaobao asked quietly.

"Once his life box revives, he can immediately lead more True Demon minions to attack us. Can you stop them, or can I? Don't forget, we are carrying out missions in small teams and individually because we are short of manpower."

"If the True Devil's minions arrive, everyone in this world will be completely destroyed. All living beings, including the Heavenly Dao, will completely become the True Devil's minions, adding strength to the destruction of the entire Boundless Chaos Sea."

Lu Wenwu: “.”

He had nothing to say.

If Gris were to bring his men back, this world would become part of the True Demon camp, which would aid the enemy and put the remaining creatures in this world in a situation worse than death.

The minions of the True Demon could easily refine countless more divine weapons and place them in the world, and on the eve of the destruction of the Divine Weapon Continent, carry out a sustainable and exhausting fishing expedition to raise Gu, completely exhausting all surplus value.

Seeing Lu Wenwu remained silent, Xiaobao continued to question, "Even if Gris doesn't have the courage to come again, what will you do if the magic weapon appears in this world again?"

"Countless divine weapon forging methods have been leaked from the Qiyun Dynasty. Even if you can destroy all materialized carriers of inheritance, can you also destroy all the memories in everyone's brain? You can't finish it even if you work yourself to death!"

"They've only lost their creativity, not their memory! We don't have the thousands of years to waste like the real demon minions, nor do we have their vast armies that can constantly search and kill."

"Don't tell me that the situation is very good now. Everyone knows the dangers of the magic weapon. It's impossible for me to find a father again."

"From ancient times to the present, have there been few who covet power and wealth? Have there been few who seek instant success, those who want to gain something without working for it? Shenzhou's various legal codes contain tens of thousands of different penalties. Even if the people think of Blue Planet as a world on the verge of destruction, do you think the crime rate has reached zero?"

"Shit shoveler, I don't want to pour cold water on you, but this is the truth."

"When the divine weapon reappears, all our previous actions will be in vain."

"There will never be a shortage of people willing to take risks in this world. This is a primitive desire shared by all intelligent creatures."

"Once infected by the power of the True Devil, not only will one's thinking logic be rewritten, but the dark desires deep within one's heart will be amplified without limit."

"This is the devil, the real devil!"

Having said that, Xiao Bao's expression suddenly became extremely serious, and even the shadow of the White Tiger God's star map faintly appeared behind him.

"Shit shoveler, I know you've always claimed to be a moral abyss, an abyss demon from the Chaos Evil camp."

"But I know, Maomao knows, and you know it too."

"You want to save every world you've ever experienced, and you don't want to give up any hope."

"But the truth is, after ascending, the conditions we face are so dire that they're incomparable to what we faced in the lower realms. It's definitely not the Novice Village provided by the system anymore."

“The world is like the stars; every moment there are worlds being born and dying.”

"You can no longer be like Xiao Yan in the past, timing your moves perfectly every time, entering a dying world at the perfect moment to save it."

"Even the Qingyuan Miaodao Erlang Xiansheng Zhenjun whom you admire the most can't do it."

After saying that, Xiaobao jumped nimbly onto the broad and majestic shoulders.

In a rare move, he rubbed Lu Wenwu's cheek with his head.

Then he disappeared in a flash and went to rescue the surviving warriors with Maomao.

Even though it had already sentenced everyone in this world to death in its heart.

But the family wants to save it, and the younger brother doesn't want to give up, so it, as the big brother, will do its best to help until the final outcome comes.

Lu Wenwu sat alone on the dragon head sculpture in the Dragon Mansion for a whole day and night without saying a word.

During this process, he woodenly sorted out the "relics" left by Gris and discovered the ball of light that they brought with them when they crossed over.

When forcibly refining it with enormous mental power, the aura that did not belong to the True Demon camp drew out a wisp of soul fragment hidden within it.

It tried to break through the void and escape.

Without any surprise, the soul fragment was directly captured by the upset Lu Wenwu, who crushed it mercilessly and forcibly read the fragment from his memory.

It was the appearance of this fragment of soul that allowed him to see through everything and finally complete the last piece of the puzzle on the historical timeline of the Divine Weapon Continent.

During the time of the Sun and Moon Sword Ancestor, the minions of the True Devil tracked down the hometown of the Weapon Refining God.

A quasi-immortal-level true demon with suppressed power descended upon this world, planted the Guixu ancient tree, and built the Heaven and Earth Corridor Bridge to assist the growth of the ancient tree seeds. After forcing the world to be infected by the power of the demon, he left and prepared to wait for the harvest in the future.

The so-called mother pool that can give birth to magical weapons is actually the place where the Guixu ancient tree grows.

During the Hundred Refinements Martial God period, the seeds of the ancient tree had already taken root.

The commander-in-chief of the true demon minions who had reached the third level of deity and appeared in the classics and the memories of the magic weapons also arrived with his army at this time.

He stabbed the quasi-immortal in the back when he was in seclusion at the critical moment, seized his property, and also obtained the place where this opportunity was.

After coming to the Continent of Divine Weapons, the True Demon Commander coveted the power of the divine weapons, so he did not destroy them. Instead, he used the methods of the God of Weapon Refining to modify the functions of the divine weapons, adding the function of collecting luck.

The Mother Pool and the Bridge of Heaven and Earth were slightly modified to slow down the erosion efficiency of this world. The resurrection point of the magic weapon was bound to the Mother Pool, allowing the damaged magic weapon to reappear.

The ball of light in Lu Wenwu's hand is actually the secret key to space that he had talked about before.

Its function is to guide the locations of the five important nodes of the Heaven and Earth Bridge and the mother pool, and to open up the hidden deep space.

This is not the inheritance of the God of Weapon Refining at all. Gris and Zhao Changhe are mistaken.

It was pure luck that I ran into Lu Wenwu on the ascension platform.

Some time after the last Martial God passed away, the True Demon Commander, who was extremely eager for opportunities, came again to clean up the continent and check the progress of the divine weapon breeding.

At this time, the strongest divine weapon was only at the second stage of ascension to the godhood.

The True Demon Commander was very dissatisfied with this efficiency.

What he wanted was an existence comparable to the third level of godhood.

So, he began to mobilize the power of the Guixu Ancient Tree to carry out a major transformation of the Heavenly Dao and the magical weapons of this world, forcing the magical weapons to completely complete the transformation. The memories of the ancient times were also completely erased, and it became what it is today.

In other words, these divine weapons that possessed their own wisdom were the first intelligent creatures on the Divine Weapon Continent to be completely transformed into minions of the True Demon, becoming chess pieces on the chessboard of the True Demon Commander.

Before Lu Wenwu arrived, this world had already been planned by the True Demon Camp for thousands of years, and only the finishing touch was left for the final harvest.

The True Demon Commander probably never thought of this until his death.

He who kills others will be killed.

He backstabbed his former boss, but at the last moment when he was about to reap the rewards, he was backstabbed by Gris and Zhao Changhe together, and was completely defeated.

"Guixu Ancient Tree, True Demon Seed"

After reading all of the True Demon Commander's memories, Lu Wenwu's mood, which had gradually adjusted, became worse than yesterday.

This time, we really reached a desperate situation.
