Chapter 409 The Context of the Times
The seal on the master's body has not been completely broken for the time being - after all, this is a seal set by the Immortal Emperor, and it is also a six-pillar level power. Even without the master's energy, it can temporarily resist the cleansing of the original dark side power.
This seal caused the master's physical strength to be reduced to only one tenth.
However, the forty-meter-long sword is not an artistic expression, but a real sword.
An energy sword condensed from the original power of the dark side of the self.
If the original master himself were to make an evaluation, he would definitely say that he is currently the weakest of the six pillars in history.
——More than 90% of the physical strength of the Old Ones was sealed, and the original dark side soul that had just escaped could only control a very low proportion of the original dark side power.
In contrast to his current strength is his growth potential - the seal of the Immortal Emperor will gradually be worn away, and the original soul will be able to gradually control more of his own power.
His strength is not growing, but only recovering, so the growth rate is naturally outrageous.
The long sword was slowly raised, drawing in more original dark side power.
The purple primordial power crossed the distance of endless space and fell from the sky. Part of it was controlled by the primordial master and used for his own purposes to continue to attack the seal of the Immortal Emperor.
Some of them followed their instincts and intended to destroy the original soul in the master's body, but they could not break the master's body, which was the toughest in the entire universe. However, it also caused further impact on the seal of the Immortal Emperor.
The original power of the self will not assess the situation before distinguishing between friend and foe.
Anyone who stands in His way is an enemy.
In short, the seal is under great pressure right now. If the Immortal Emperor does not hurry back, it will only be a matter of time before the Primordial Overlord escapes from the cage and regains his freedom.
So can the Immortal Emperor return in time?
Let him have a long dream...
After all, in the current situation, whether the Immortal Emperor can return home in time does not actually depend on him, but on the Demon Emperor's hatred towards the Immortal Emperor.
As for the hatred that the Demon Emperor has for the Immortal Emperor, everyone understands it.
The perception of the original master swept across all directions.
Even if they are the weakest six pillars in history, the entire Luotian Sect is still a piece of trash in His eyes and is not worth mentioning.
The Immortal Emperor's clone was just an ordinary clone, without any Six Pillars power. After all, before, even controlling the seal required the help of his twelve-level subordinates, instead of this clone doing it himself. It was said that every time he met Wen Yu, the Immortal Emperor would gather all his strength. This was a respect for his old rival, and a responsibility to his own life.
Therefore, the Original Lord can do whatever he wants here and now, and there will be no power of the same level to stop His actions!
"Gogogo, the game begins."
The original master used a frivolous tone and smiled as he brought down the butcher knife.
…
The wind rises in Luotian Sect.
But the dark world quieted down with the transfer of the original master.
If you ignore the faint purple light rising from the depths of space and the gradually shattering and collapsing fragments of your subconscious...
Yes, not to mention that the original entity had found a new target—his own soul. Just say that this subconscious fragment was already on the verge of breaking point amidst the continuous changes.
Stopping to stare at the scene where the sky was collapsing and the earth was collapsing, Xia Lin suddenly clapped his hands and roared.
"Fuck! I haven't received my reward yet!"
Although Xia Lin's task was not heavy and the work he did was simple.
But work is work. I help you and you give me the benefits in the contract. This is only natural.
As a result, things happened too quickly and too urgently. The original master ran away, and Xia Lin still didn't know how to solve the problem of the uniqueness of the Heavenly Dao Equation.
Am I working for nothing?
That can't be...
Regardless of the original Dark Side's true nature, He had no reason to break His promise on such a matter - what He paid for was only intelligence, not physical objects, and He really couldn't find the logic of harming others and not benefiting Himself.
In Xia Lin's eyes, a golden light flashed in front of him and flew quickly towards his hands.
Xia Lin instinctively opened his hands to catch the golden light, looked down and laughed.
It's that cosmic bug...
The cosmic bug, which should have been the core focus of this game, was ignored due to a series of changes and was eventually delivered to Xia Lin by the original dark side.
Yes, it was sent by the original dark side.
With such precision and clear goals, this is the only possibility.
"But let's just talk about now. This thing is of little use to me."
Xia Lin felt that it was too early for him to reach level 12. At present, he had no intention of leaving the protection of the Ashes Zone and wanted to develop for a while under the protection of the Ashes Zone.
Since the cosmic bug cannot be used in a short period of time, it becomes a hot potato in Xia Lin's hands, which is like a child carrying gold through a busy city.
"But this is the prerequisite for you to solve the uniqueness problem of the Heavenly Dao Equation."
The voice of the original dark side sounded in the cosmic bug.
He left a trace of consciousness in it to fulfill the agreement with Xia Lin.
Before Xia Lin could speak, the Primal Dark Side continued, "Achieving level twelve is one of the prerequisites for solving the uniqueness problem."
…
Xia Lin had a feeling that the uniqueness problem would be difficult to solve - after all, it involved the strength and foundation of the six pillars.
It is also one of their supreme core logics.
But now, as the original dark side was revealed, Xia Lin discovered that the solution to this problem was far more difficult than he had expected.
"Achieving level 12 and obtaining the divinely bestowed power of transcendence is one of the prerequisites."
"Besides that, there are also conditions two and three... but we'll discuss those after you reach level 12."
"I'll tell you the idea first, but I won't provide the specific items or plans you need. You need to figure it out on your own."
"And the general idea is actually quite simple: the word 'dark world' is enough to describe it."
Being in the dark world, the power of the six pillars suppressed the uniqueness rule, allowing Xia Lin to use the Heavenly Dao Equation here.
"Not only the Dark Realm, but all the territories directly under the Six Pillars can suppress the rules of the main universe... The Dark Realm can do it, and the Demon Palace can do it too."
Xia Lin almost laughed out of anger, thinking he had been cheated.
"So what you're saying is that I can only use this Heavenly Dao Equation within the realm of the Six Pillars. It won't work outside of the Six Pillars, right?"
"That's right."
Xia Lin immediately rolled his eyes.
You are a dark person who cheats and deceives people without any sense of morality!
Fortunately, the Original Dark Side spoke in time.
"I won't trick you this way... This is indeed the principle for solving the uniqueness problem, but there are still loopholes."
"The best solution I can think of for you is: after you reach level 12, use the treasure to create a pseudo six-pillar domain unique to you. This way, you can also be exempted from the uniqueness rule."
This is equivalent to Xia Lin creating a dark world-like area within a certain range around himself to resist the uniqueness rule.
Theoretically, this approach works.
But in practice, this method is just funny.
"Let's not talk about achieving level 12. Let's just talk about that treasure you mentioned... I think if I want to create a pseudo six-pillar domain, the quality of this treasure should be very high, right?"
Original Dark Side: "That's right."
"How high?"
"The Demon Palace is so high..."
Xia Lin's face turned dark.
"The Demon Palace is one of the top three treasures in the universe."
"Yes... Actually, if you want to create a pseudo six-pillar domain with the power of level 12, you need a treasure of this level... The Demon Palace, the Kingdom of God, or the Heavenly Palace, you must get one of them, even if it's just a part of them."
The Demon Palace is the base camp of the Soul-Controlling Demon Emperor.
The Kingdom of God is the headquarters of the King of kings.
The Heavenly Palace is the base camp of the Lord of Heaven.
These three are also the top three ultimate treasures in the current main universe, with no ranking in order.
With the Six Pillars' dedicated cultivation, the levels of these three items, although theoretically also belong to the Six Pillars level, their power is essentially different from that of other Six Pillars level items!
Even the logic behind the creation of these three treasures by the Upper Three Pillars was based on the original Dark Side's essence. The theoretical upper limit of their strength is equivalent to items possessing the status of the Six Pillars!
Of course, theory is theory and reality is reality.
The lack of six pillar qualifications has resulted in the three treasures being unable to reach the height of the original dark side. Material limitations and the superposition of various factors have also resulted in the theoretical upper limit existing only in theory and unable to become a reality.
But we have to admit that these three treasures are indeed special.
Xia Lin was speechless. "Oh, so let's summarize. If I want to get the Heavenly Dao Equation, I have to attack Sanzhu's lair, right? At least I have to take some parts from it, right?"
Original Dark Side: "That's right."
Xia Lin: "Then let me test you. If I had this ability, why would I need the Heavenly Dao Equation?"
The original dark side also smiled and said: "Don't worry, if you think this method is difficult, there are two other ways."
"What method?"
"The Creator of Heaven is dead, or you become the Six Pillars."
Xia Lin clapped his hands and said, "What a great idea! Aren't these two methods much simpler?"
I have already accepted the defeat in my heart. All this work has been in vain.
Until the cosmic bug, the voice of the original dark side sounded again.
With temptation.
"In fact, if you really want the Heavenly Dao Equation, now is your best opportunity."
"Reaching level 12 isn't difficult for you. The difficulty of the plan lies solely in the three great treasures."
"Since you've helped me so much, I'll give you a goal: Tiangong..."
"Now is the best chance for you and anyone else to seize the Heavenly Palace. There is no better opportunity than this."
Xia Lin was stunned, and the original dark side voice sounded again.
"Muddy waters make it easier to fish."
"Believe me, the water in the main universe is much more muddy now than at any other time."
This is the end of the original dark side.
Xia Lin was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled.
"You're trying to trick me into coming here."
"You may think so, but what I said is the truth."
Xia Lin was silent again, but then asked a question that had nothing to do with uniqueness.
"How long do you think a six-pillar battle would last?"
The original dark side chuckled: "Take the two immortal and demon emperors as an example. Every fight between them will last for hundreds of years."
"So you see, you've got the point."
When Xia Lin asked this question, the original dark side realized it and understood the deep meaning of Xia Lin's words.
"Well then, the agreement is fulfilled. I'll wait for you at Luotian Sect."
After saying these more meaningful farewell words, the original dark side withdrew its consciousness, and Xia Lin also put the cosmic bug into his personal space and sighed deeply.
Times have changed.
Just changed.
…
There is a saying that if you stand in the right place, even a pig can fly to the sky.
The changes of the times are like the wind.
The atmosphere, pigs, etc., and people move!
Wait for the wind to come and ride on it, this is the next step.
Zhongcheng’s approach is to actively seek out the wind, actively ride the wind, and actively occupy the forefront of the times.
The best way to succeed is to turn yourself into the wind.
"This primordial dark side is really good at deceiving people..."
Xia Lin expressed this sentiment, and then realized that his behavioral logic also needed to change with the times.
Huafeng doesn't have the strength, but he not only has Chengfeng's courage, but also a great one.
Before, Xia Lin only wanted to accumulate strength under the protection of the Cinder District, but this depends on the situation.
Who made him provoke the head of the six pillars, the creator of heaven?
But now, times have changed, and this logic has also changed.
"Original Overlord? Well, this title is very appropriate. The Origin Overlord is now in Luotian Sect, and Luotian Sect is the lair of the Immortal Emperor."
"This actually means that the Immortal Emperor and the Demon Emperor are fighting again."
It’s not the kind of fighting that involves proxy wars… but the kind of fighting that involves real bodies fighting!
"Chaoxing will definitely stay by the side of the Demon Emperor and fight against the Immortal Emperor together... Although Chaoxing doesn't need to die with the Demon Emperor when the situation is bad, it makes no sense for Chaoxing not to help the Immortal Emperor when the situation is favorable."
The dispute between the immortals and warriors is the conflict between Chaoxing and the Immortal Emperor. It is a dispute over the Dao.
In the struggle, it’s either you or me!
Chaoxing would not be so stupid as to not fight a favorable battle and hand over the good situation to the Immortal Emperor.
"And the character of the King of Kings also means that He will not get too deeply involved in this matter. He will definitely not attack other pillars at the beginning of this change."
The King of Kings loves balance.
But that doesn't mean he will take the initiative to get deeply involved in order to achieve a balance - as a neutral party, if he does so, he will be courting disaster.
Therefore, under the premise that the outcome is not absolutely clear, the King of Kings will most likely just watch from the sidelines instead of personally participating in it.
"So now, no one can check and balance the original master."
It looks like 4vs1, but it is actually 2vs1+2vs0.
But no matter how we talk about it, the Immortal Emperor is still that number one... This time he is going to bleed heavily.
“And for me, this is the opportunity.”
Because of the Immortal Emperor, Xia Lin wanted to accumulate as much strength as possible in the Ashes District - because without the protection of the Ashes District, once he left the Novice Village, the Immortal Emperor's targeting would inevitably make it difficult for Xia Lin to move forward.
But right now, the Immortal Emperor himself can hardly save himself... and he cannot finish the battle with the Demon Emperor in a short period of time.
The time window appeared.
"Not only is the Immortal Emperor himself in danger, but those Level Twelve under him are also in dire straits."
"It's impossible for the Primordial Lord not to take this opportunity to clip the Immortal Emperor's wings and give him a haircut...His parting words just now also prove this point."
"He said he would wait for me in Luotian Sect... This means that one of the Origin Overlord's current targets is the twelve-level immortals under the command of the Immortal Emperor..."
These people are being targeted by the Original Lord, so how could they have the time to cause trouble for Xia Lin?
Xia Lin suddenly discovered that the biggest obstacle that had been bothering him and preventing him from leaving the Novice Village was gone...
The reason why it is the biggest obstacle, rather than the only obstacle, is because it also involves things like soul light... But these are obviously small problems compared to the problems on the side of the Lord of Heaven.
Continue to think about the pros and cons of not leaving the Ember Zone.
"The advantage is that we're in the Ashes, and we can still take advantage of the Novice Village and build up our foundation... But the situation is chaotic right now, and there are more opportunities outside."
Let’s not talk about anything else, just talking about what is happening in Luotian Sect right now, Xia Lin has the urge to participate - the Immortal Emperor’s Heavenly Palace is unguarded, and there must be a lot of level 12 corpses.
Eating the leftovers of the Primordial Overlord is definitely a way to get rich...
"Furthermore, in the Ashes Zone, your level is limited. You can't reach level 10, let alone level 12."
"If you can't reach level 12, you'll be constrained by the professional system, preventing your attributes and racial values from rising any further..."
After this analysis, Xia Lin suddenly felt that there were restrictions everywhere in the Jhin area.
For him now, the Ashes District is no longer a safe house, but has become a cage that restricts his growth in strength.
"In short, it would be best if the Immortal Emperor died this time."
"If he doesn't die, or even manages to resolve this crisis, then my actions this time will surely make the Immortal Emperor hate me to the core... If I don't leave the Ashes Zone and seize the opportunity to grow now, I'll have even less chance later."
As soon as the thought came to his mind, Xia Lin felt that his thoughts were clear and his thinking was bright.
But before that, he had to deal with the things right under his nose.
There is something about this war of all races.
Beside him, Ying's voice suddenly sounded.
“It’s out!”
At this moment, this fragment of the subconscious is on the verge of collapse, and almost all outsiders are rushing to get out.
Only Donald and Wuxin's men remained where they were, continuing to wait.
The focus of waiting is naturally the strongest walker in the Ashen zone in history: Wuxin!
The power of cause and effect entanglement suddenly erupted and fell on a Cinder Zone Walker from Wuxin's side.
The man screamed on the spot, his body and soul quickly twisted, and finally turned into Wuxin!
Before, Wuxin's soul and body had merged with the false master, and the death of the false master severely damaged Wuxin.
However, because the original master did not deliberately target him, Wuxin was still able to hold on even though he had lost his old days and immortal soul.
It took him quite some time to complete the possession of his opponent's body by means of the entanglement of cause and effect.
However, the forced deprivation of his important talent inevitably had a serious impact on Wuxin.
He was in poor condition and his fighting power dropped sharply.
Donald, Ying and others have been waiting for this opportunity!
Although these Ash Zone Walkers are vaguely aware that the structure of the main universe will inevitably change with the birth of the Original Overlord.
But due to their limited vision, their insights into this may not be very profound.
For them, matters involving the six pillars are far away. Compared with those matters, what is in front of them is the most important.
"Kill him!"
Donald roared and took the lead.
Kill you while you are sick.
Wuxin's mouth twitched, and he turned around and ran, but another voice reached the ears of his men.
"Stop them."
"It's time to be loyal to me and my father."
The usurpation plan completely failed, but that doesn't mean I'm not willing to be buried with it.
Since failure is inevitable, remaining useful becomes Wuxin's main goal at the moment.
The injuries to his body and soul continued to heal, but only very slowly - the loss of his important talent had severely damaged Wuxin, and he would not be able to recover to his peak condition in a short period of time.
But his speed is still not slow.
In a flash, he had already reached the boundary of this subconscious fragment, but Wuxin suddenly stopped.
But Xia Lin had already appeared in front of Wuxin.
Looking at Wuxin's expressionless face, Xia Lin shrugged slightly.
"One of the things is to end things with you..."
Wu Xin chuckled: "Just you?"
Xia Lin also smiled, but didn't say anything else.
Because obviously, Wuxin didn't know that Xia Lin had already obtained his father's core skills...
If it were before when he just entered the Black Domain, Xia Lin felt that he might be slightly inferior to Wuxin.
Then after obtaining the Heavenly Dao Equation, the strength comparison between the two must have been overturned.
Seeing Xia Lin motionless, Wuxin sneered, "What? Waiting for someone? Donald? Ying? And then the three of them team up to deal with me?"
"That's right, sticking together for warmth is what you weaklings love to do most."
Xia Lin shook his head.
"No, I'm not waiting for help. I'm just thinking."
"I've thought of 999 ways to kill you, I'm just weighing which one to use."
