Zhang San?
His most trusted relative in hundreds of years?
A trace of confusion first appeared in Chaos' eyes, and then he suddenly realized.
It’s Zhang San!
How could I have forgotten about him?
As his most loyal follower, Zhang San had followed him for hundreds of years. Although he was a child from a mountain village, he had good talent. When he was traveling in Zhangjiagou, he happened to see this child fighting with other children.
This child was weak and could not beat other children, but every time he was beaten, he would use tricks to trick the child who beat him into going to the side of a ravine, and when the child was not paying attention, he would push the child down to his death.
Gradually, all the children in the village were killed by him, and the villagers also realized Zhang San's insidiousness and viciousness. They were about to put him in a pig cage, but they saved him themselves.
Later, in order to repay him for saving his life, Zhang San kowtowed to him and became his apprentice. Zhang San liked the boy's character very much and accepted him as his own follower. Although there were many people and gods who believed in him, Zhang San was definitely the most loyal one among them.
Gong Yangwan's expression eased a little, and she asked Zhang San, "Why can't we kill him?"
"Lord Chaos, how come you don't remember anything?" Zhang San sighed, walked to Gong Yangwan's side, leaned over and whispered in her ear,
"Because...I want to kill you."
The moment the words fell, a broken sword pierced Gong Yangwan's head directly from the jaw, cutting her head in half. Blood spurted out, and a corpse fell straight to the ground.
Lin Qiye shook off the blood on the sword, looked down at the corpse at his feet with cold eyes, and spoke calmly:
"You're hiding on my tongue... Looks like I'll have to let you live for a while longer."
Gong Yangwan's corpse on the ground quickly transformed into a willow branch with eyeballs. A flash of black light flew out from her belly. A bloody mouth opened on the fingertip of Chaos's severed finger, and a roar came out from it:
"It's you?! What on earth did you do?!"
At this moment, [Chaos] finally regained consciousness. He looked at Lin Qiye who was sneering in front of him, and recalled his absurd behavior just now. He felt like his lungs were about to explode with anger.
His most loyal follower, Zhang San? !
A child from a mountain village?!
I even went to Zhangjiagou to travel, and I admired this sinister kid? !
How did he accept such an outrageous setting just now? These things clearly had not happened, but He seemed to have experienced them personally... so much so that in that short period of time just now, He really regarded Lin Qiye as his most trusted dependent.
[Chaos] knew very well that although he was only a finger here and had no real combat power, so he had to rely on the physical bodies of the fake Wuquan, the fake Gongyang Wan and others to move, but no matter what, he was also a finger of the Three Pillar Gods, and even some illusions or cognitive confusion abilities had almost no effect on him.
"You've awakened?" Chaos seemed to have guessed something, "What kind of ability is that?!"
Lin Qiye slowly raised his left hand, and a ball of light appeared in his palm. A silk thread extended from the ball of light and had been wrapped around the finger of Chaos at some point.
——【Unprovoked reason】.
Compared to [Predetermined Result], the ability of [Unprovoked Cause] is more obscure and empty. In short, according to Lin Qiye's current understanding, this ability represents "cause without reason". It can create a non-existent cause and effect out of thin air. It has no logic and is nonsensical, but it is the starting point of all things in the world and the cause of all results.
Of course, Lin Qiye would not tell Chaos about his forbidden ruins. Threads of light emanated from the ball of light in his palm and extended into the void.
"Guess?" Lin Qiye asked coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking, an astonishing wave of divine power erupted from the sword in Lin Qiye's hand. The surface of this long-dormant supreme artifact finally burst into a dazzling divine light, as if it was completely activated, and emitted a sharp buzzing sound!
"You are not its master, and you have not become a god, but you can completely control it?" Chaos saw this and thought of his own experience just now, and said in a deep voice, "Could it be that your Forbidden Ruins is related to cause and effect?"
Lin Qiye did not answer. He clenched the sword of Ama-Kushu and drew a long arc of sword light in front of him like lightning!
The sword light flashed across the sky and earth, and a sword mark extended from the ruins to the end of the sky. The dark clouds above Chang'an City and the colorful smoke surging not far away were all cut apart in an instant. No matter how the clouds and smoke rolled, they could not gather together again, as if there was an invisible wall blocking them.
This sword of Ame-no-Murasakumo was snatched from Susanoo by him and Galan. Lin Qiye is not its owner, and it is difficult for him to exert its full power without divine power. So far, Lin Qiye has only used it as a close-range weapon.
But now it's different.
If you look closely, you can see a thread of cause and effect extending from [Unprovoked Cause], connecting to the hilt of the sword Ame Kusanagi, fluttering gently.
Under the power of [Unprovoked Cause], Lin Qiye directly created a new cause and effect between himself and the Murasaki Sword. In that cause and effect, he was the master of the Murasaki Sword... Now, he can directly exert the true power of the Murasaki Sword even though he has not yet become a god!
Nothing can be left uncut, and anything that has been cut cannot be repaired, not even clouds and fog are exceptions... This is Takama-ga-hara's supreme killing weapon, the Murasakibara Sword!
A line of blood emerged from the surface of Chaos's finger, and the sword mark was deeply embedded in it, but this finger was too hard. Even the sword of Ame Murakami in its heyday could only inflict this bone-deep scar, but could not cut it off completely.
When the sword was slashed out, the severed finger also sensed the danger, and its body turned into a stream of light, whistling as it flew away into the distance!
He wants to escape!
Without Gong Yangwan as his carrier, he was just a piece of hard finger. Facing Lin Qiye who possessed the Forbidden Ruins of Cause and Effect, he had almost no chance of winning. It was not easy for him to return to this era from two thousand years later. If he was injured here, not only would he waste the power of the [Key to the Door] in vain, but he would also completely lose this finger.
As long as He survives, even in this era, He can plan another killing plan against Lin Qiye and still have the opportunity to complete his mission!
Lin Qiye stood where he was, watching the scene quietly. He raised his right hand slightly, and a thread of cause and effect emanating from the severed finger crossed hundreds of meters of nothingness and was pinched at his fingertips.
Looking at the causal thread belonging to the severed finger in his hand, Lin Qiye spoke calmly:
"I want to see... where can you escape to?"
