Chapter 446 Absolute Balance and Fair Trade!
The flow of time in the promotion space is abnormal, and only a moment has passed in reality.
The five people including the Soul Binding Immortal Venerable had no idea that while Xia Lin used the fake body created by the old calling to ward off disasters and calamities, his real body had secretly cultivated a twelfth-level artificial Immortal Emperor (incomplete version).
"The outcome is decided!"
Five voices rang out from the mouths of the five Soul-Binding Immortals in the five ghost eyes, like oracles from heaven, announcing the end of this battle!
They simultaneously turned their heads to look at Xia Lin, who was captured in the ghost's eyes, until they saw the chaotic and superb light of skills blooming in Xia Lin's hands.
The Soul Binding Immortal Venerable did not know the power of absolute balance, so at the beginning, Soul Binding did not think there was anything wrong with it - the Soul Binding skill had one imperfection, which was that after capturing the enemy, it could not seal the enemy's innate skills.
But these flaws are insignificant.
Ghost Eye is a special skill space created by the Soul Binding skill.
The strength of this space is astonishing. Even if one is ten times stronger than the bound spirit, he cannot forcibly destroy this space and escape from it. To achieve this, a strength difference of a hundred times may be required.
Xia Lin is obviously not a strong man of this level.
Once the containment is complete, the Soul Binding skill will provide two options:
1. Kill directly!
The soul-binding skill will completely wipe out the captured target within a few breaths, leaving no trace behind!
This is a permanent annihilation, a conceptual kill, the kind that ignores resurrection items and skills.
2. Refine slowly!
Depending on the strength of the target, the Soul Binding skill can refine the captured target into a life ghost completely controlled by the Soul Binding Immortal within one to ten days - two of the Soul Binding Immortal's three twelve-level life ghosts came from this.
After being refined into a life ghost, all the target's memories and props will belong to the Soul-Binding Immortal Venerable.
At this moment, facing Xia Lin, the Soul-Binding Immortal Venerable chose the second option without hesitation!
I can only say that if it were you, you would have to make the same choice...
This Xia Lin is fat, too fat.
Although his level is not high enough and his strength is not good enough, he has an astonishing number of treasures.
Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about the spiritual world book that everyone wants. There is no reason for the Soul Binding Immortal to give it up.
Speaking of the Spirit World Book, the Soul Binding Immortal suddenly discovered something unusual... Xia Lin didn't have the pendant-like Spirit World Book hanging around his neck.
'Maybe it was put away? But why would it be put away?'
The doubt flashed by.
However, Xia Lin no longer gave the Soul Binding Immortal Venerable more time to think.
Light burst out from his fingertips, and just when the light reached its peak, Xia Lin slowly raised his hand and gently pointed forward.
The arrival of the Old Ones has already revealed the strangeness of the six pillars’ core skills.
The Heavenly Dao Equation is even more intuitive and powerful.
"Then let me see what the Demon Emperor's absolute balance has to say!"
Muttering this in his mind, the light of the skill burst out in the next second, rendering the entire Ghost Eye space chaotic.
Time freezes for a moment!
The black and white aura spread rapidly with Xia Lin as the center, quickly filling the entire Ghost Eye Space, and with the help of the direct connection between the Ghost Eye Space and the Soul Binding Immortal, it penetrated into the body of the Soul Binding Immortal!
As a result, at this moment, the Soul Binding Immortal's body became stiff and motionless, with only his thoughts functioning normally.
He looked at Xia Lin in astonishment, still not understanding what kind of ability Xia Lin had released.
Until a violent twitching and tearing sensation surged into his heart, like a fire that burned the world, igniting everything in the Soul Binding Immortal Lord!
Balance, start!
…
The world outside the world, inside the heavenly palace.
When the fake Xia Lin activated Absolute Balance, the real Xia Lin instinctively opened his personal information panel and looked at the Absolute Balance CD.
"OK! My Absolute Balance didn't go into CD!"
Xia Lin jumped two feet high, clapped his hands vigorously, and was overjoyed.
The main body is the main body, and the clone is the clone. The skill CD of the two units are calculated independently.
In this regard, Xia Lin can only say that the Spirit World Book is awesome!
But after thinking about it carefully, Xia Lin realized that it was not the Spirit World Book that was awesome, but the Original Dark Side and the King of Kings that were awesome, and his own absolute balance, which was an original version of the relationship.
The Dark Realm is the realm of the original dark side, with natural immunity skills and unique rules.
The fake Demon Emperor who produces absolute balance is the subconscious creation of the original dark side. It is so fake that it cannot be more fake. The absolute balance skill possessed by Xia Lin is essentially just an "imagination" of the original dark side - of course, when it comes to the six pillars, the truth is also false and the false is also true.
The Old Ones were created by the two six pillars, the Original Dark Side and the King of Kings.
Due to the combination of various factors, the power of Descent of the Old Ones vaguely surpasses the absolute balance of this version, thus completing the independent calculation of the Twin skill CD!
The fake body had a thought and started a fair trade, intending to reset the CD of absolute balance...
But it didn't work.
Fair Trade cannot reset Absolute Balance CD.
But this also fits with the logical point Xia Lin just made—Call of the Ancients is awesome, but Fair Trade isn't quite there...
Xia Lin was not angry either.
Because of the Call of the Old Ones, Xia Lin can still achieve a tie-breaking combo - after the fake body uses a skill, Xia Lin disperses the fake body, creates another fake body, and then lets the fake body release Absolute Balance.
Each cycle requires Xia Lin to consume 10% of the dark side completion - the cost is indeed not small, but it is also within an acceptable range.
And right now, the only unknown is the effect of absolute balance.
The will is completely invested in the fake body.
At this moment, Xia Lin and his fake body's thoughts connected with each other, merged into one, and together they witnessed the power of absolute balance.
In Yu Xialin's perception, his own body and soul as well as the Soul-Binding Immortal Venerable disintegrated and completely turned into the smallest atomic form.
Consciousness is still retained.
In the dark, the prompt sound of the professional system exploded deep in the soul.
【Balance begins.】
【Please choose the balance direction! 】
The so-called balance direction refers to what project Xia Lin wants to balance with the Soul Binding Immortal as his target.
It can balance racial values and basic attributes.
You can balance skills, talents, and even professions.
It can balance memory and soul.
It can even balance the fate and destiny!
Absolute balance, balance of all things!
Everything about you is my goal!
Xia Lin suddenly smiled.
"Then let's balance everything..."
If the main body released this skill, Xia Lin would never dare to make such a choice.
He didn't want to give up his own memories, nor did he want the useless memories of the Soul Binding Immortal. It was even more difficult for him to accept his own soul mixed with the soul factor of the Soul Binding Immortal.
The problem is that the one releasing the skill right now is the fake body created by the Call of the Old Ones.
Xia Lin would naturally have this thought - after I have balanced everything with you, and then I take action to dispel the fake body, how will you respond?
The answer will be revealed soon.
As Xia Lin thought about it, the balance took effect instantly!
Xia Lin's clone and the atomic particles transformed from the Soul-Binding Immortal's real body instantly mixed together.
You are in me and I am in you, intertwined and fused, and then, about to split in two...
At this moment, Xia Lin suddenly heard the prompt sound of the new professional system (not the Ashes system).
[Should fair trade be initiated?]
Note: Absolute Balance and Fair Trade can produce a synergistic effect. You can use Fair Trade to perfectly refine your balance goals and dominate the balancing process!
The sudden burst of wild laughter came from the real and fake Xia Lin.
"It's reasonable, it's reasonable! It should be this way, it should be this way!"
The Demon Emperor once said that fair trade is born out of absolute balance.
It is not derived from Xia Lin's version of absolute balance, but from the complete version of absolute balance in the hands of the Demon Emperor after the establishment of the new universe.
The two are related and can interact with each other, so there is naturally no problem at all.
"Then...Fair Trade, activate!"
As soon as Xia Lin had a thought, the shadow of a balance suddenly appeared above the mixed atomic particles.
Somehow, Xia Lin realized how to operate this link.
Then he thought again, and tiny atomic particles fell to both ends of the scale!
"First, I need to balance the racial values and basic attributes."
The atomic particles formed by the most fundamental attribute power are scattered on both ends of the scale until balance is achieved.
But soon, Xia Lin discovered a problem - he could not use absolute balance to break through the attribute limit.
This may be due to the differences in the rules of the new and old universes - the attribute upper limit is a product of the new universe.
Or perhaps, the original version's absolute balance was indeed a bit lacking in effectiveness—the new was not as good as the old? Wrong, in the professional system, the new was bound to be stronger than the old!
Standing on the shoulders of giants, you will become more awesome!
With the replacement of versions, everything is evolving. It is reasonable that the absolute balance of the old versions is generally effective.
The inability to break through the attribute limit is actually not a big problem.
Because no matter how old the version of absolute balance is, it is still absolute balance!
This skill has such a characteristic - it will not stop until it reaches a truly complete balance!
Xia Lin's attributes are stuck... It doesn't matter, don't your Soul Binding Immortal's attributes still have room to decrease?
Xia Lin's attributes are at the limit of the professional system, so how to achieve an absolute balance between the two?
The attributes of you, the Soul Binding Immortal, have also dropped to the limit of the professional system. Isn't this balanced?
Silently, a large number of atomic particles on the side of the scale representing the Soul-Binding Immortal Lord began to float in the air. They did not disappear, but they did not join either end of the scale either.
If the bound spirit could open the personal information panel, he would be able to clearly see that his attributes and racial values had dropped to 100y and 100wy in an instant!
In terms of attributes, he was directly and permanently weakened by more than ninety-nine percent!
And this is just the beginning of absolute balance.
"Secondly, I need to balance my career, talents, and skills."
"Hey wait... Can you give me a moment so I can adjust my skillset a bit?"
This was the first time Xia Lin used the power of absolute balance.
It is not the main body that is released, but the clone that is released.
Therefore, in essence, Xia Lin’s biggest goal is not to kill the Soul-Binding Immortal, but to explore the operating logic and skill effects of absolute balance.
——After all, you have to have a certain degree of understanding of your trump cards and ultimate moves before you can formulate corresponding tactics, right?
Anyway, at this moment, Xia Lin's inspiration kept emerging, and he was ready to try to explore more possibilities of absolute balance.
The professional system did not respond, but fair trade was flashing on Xia Lin's personal information panel.
The answer is: Yes!
The fake body created by the Call of the Old Ones possesses all of Xia Lin's skills, including Erying's recipe book and all the skills recorded in the recipe book.
Without saying a word, he cleared all skills except Fair Trade and Absolute Balance.
Then Xia Lin replaced himself with a complete set of garbage bins...
Skills that would affect rationality and decision-making, such as King of Cowards, were thrown by Xia Lin into the Shadow skill column.
Other negative skills that do not affect sanity and decision-making appear in the three skill columns of constant, conventional, and permanent.
Suddenly, Xia Lin realized this problem again.
"Isn't this just pseudo-random permutation?!"
He finally discovered the blind spot...
The Uncertain Shadow, a profession created by the Demon Emperor himself, obviously has some connection with absolute balance.
The thought flashed through Xia Lin's mind, and he didn't delve into it. He just concentrated on the operation.
Soon, the second round of balancing came into effect!
Atomic particles representing occupations, talents, and skills began to fly to both ends of the scale.
In actual operation, Xia Lin soon discovered that the principles of absolute balance and pseudo-random permutation are different.
Pseudo-random permutations couldn't shake classes and talents, but absolute balance could. Not only that, it could even completely merge the three classes of Binding Soul Immortal's Cultivator, Xia Lin's Uncertain Shadow, and Eternal Pillar, creating a new class!
[New Class: ???]
[This class's logic is incoherent and its purpose is unclear... This class cannot be included in the professional system. Should it be retained?]
Well, not everything can be combined and balanced to produce a usable product.
Obviously, the integration and balance of the three professions of Immortal Cultivator, Uncertain Shadow, and Pillar of Eternity ended in failure.
Xia Lin simply kept it and gave it to the bound spirit and himself...
Talents are re-integrated.
All of Xia Lin's dual-professional talents disappeared, as did the Soul Binding Immortal's professional talents.
After a lot of messing around, several??? talents were freshly minted - all of them were meaningless and ineffective garbage.
"But it's not impossible..."
Distribute evenly and integrate skills for balance.
This time, Xia Lin thought about it and did not refine the waste slag. Instead, he filled the skill bar of the Soul Binding Immortal with negative skills, and he obtained the Soul Binding Immortal's various skills such as the Soul Binding and Life Ghost systems.
However, in the logic of absolute balance, the two sides are not equivalent and balanced - Xia Lin paid for everything but gained powerful skills.
If we don't consider the effect and only consider the level, they are not equivalent.
Just as Xia Lin was wondering how the absolute balance would work this time, the attribute atomic particles that had been floating above the scale began to fall and joined this second round of balance.
The addition of attribute atomic particles greatly enhanced the racial value and attributes of the Soul Binding Immortal, thereby achieving a balanced relationship with Xia Lin.
This isn't just about the balance of combat power, it's also about the balance of life essence and so on...
In short, the skill of absolute balance has its own logic to ensure that after balancing, the weights on the scale are equal.
After understanding this, Xia Lin got another inspiration.
"Finally, I will balance the memories and knowledge of both parties! If the soul does not move, the fate will not move!"
Xia Lin would never balance his soul and destiny with Fu Ling, a mortal being.
He only wants the knowledge and memories of the bound spirits.
Atomic particles representing memory and knowledge fly to both ends of the scale.
Xia Lin thought again, and the bound spirit's memories and knowledge immediately fell into Xia Lin's tray.
"Give him attributes."
The attribute atomic particles above the scales fell again, strengthening the attributes and racial values of the bound spirit.
At this moment, Xia Lin used the Bound Spirit's attributes to gain its memories and knowledge...
"Makes sense! It makes perfect sense!"
After all, Xia Lin uses absolute balance, not fair trade.
Your bound spirit is stronger, so naturally you become the one being balanced in the balancing process.
"That's all."
As Xia Lin said this in his heart, the entire process of absolute balance was completely completed.
The black and white light instantly shrank back into Xia Lin's body.
Along with it, the bound soul's field of harmony and the shared ecology with the life ghost also shrank!
It all seems long, but it all happens in a very short time.
In the eyes of the Blue Witch and the other three, what just happened was probably this: Xia Lin used a skill, and then he and the Bound Spirit stopped moving. After waiting for a few breaths, both sides released all their own skills.
Then, Xia Lin broke free from the constraints of the soul-binding skill.
The Soul-Binding Immortal, who had returned to his original form, simply rolled his eyes, fell from the sky, and crashed to the ground!
With a loud "boom".
The Soul-Binding Immortal Lord was like a meteorite, shattering the earth.
He was unharmed, just staring at the sky, with a light in his eyes that was so clear that there was not a trace of impurities!
——After losing his memories and knowledge, Soul Binding Immortal Venerable was like a blank sheet of paper in terms of memory.
He had no memories of the past, and like a newborn baby, he had to learn even crawling, walking, and running from scratch.
But he is not a baby after all...
His racial value and physical attributes, as chips for balance, still exist for the most part.
Summary: A big doll with a physical fitness far exceeding that of Superman, 1.8 meters tall, and a ghostly look?
Well, Soul Binding Immortal Venerable, was finally defeated by Absolute Balance...
Xia Lin's clone stood in the air, feeling an unbearable tingling sensation in his brain - this was the negative effect caused by the bound spirit's memories and knowledge being filled into his brain in a short period of time.
Replacement skill, then the fake Xia Lin pointed a finger at his temple and pulled out a crystal ball of memory from his brain.
With a snap of his fingers, the ball of light flew away. In front of the stunned eyes of the four Yu Lan witches, the ball of memory was caught by another Xia Lin.
Manaka Lin smiled and weighed the memory ball, then threw it to Scarlett who was standing beside him.
"It's for you."
The memories and knowledge of the Soul Binding Immortal Lord will definitely be useful to Scarlett, the newly promoted Immortal Lord, and it can also be considered a good gift to celebrate Scarlett's promotion.
Scarlett smiled, put away the memory ball, and looked into the distance.
In the distance, the fake Xia Lin's figure slowly turned into black smoke and disappeared.
——Activating Call of the Ancients once will consume 10% of the Dark Side completion.
——Previously, Xia Lin had 60.3% of the dark side completion rate. After 10% was consumed, only 50.3% remained... and the existence of the clone would gradually consume the dark side completion rate.
The fake Xia Lin's disappearance was not even Xia Lin's own initiative to dispel it... but it naturally dissipated after the completion of the dark side of the Spirit World Book dropped by 50%.
In the short term, the clone's absolute balance tactic will no longer be effective.
Xia Lin didn't mind either.
Even if Absolute Balance failed to defeat the Soul Binding Immortal, Xia Lin remained fearless.
He took a step back and protected Scarlett in front of him.
"I leave it to you."
"Use these people's lives to find your niche in Level Twelve."
Level 12 is a general term for a large level.
There are rubbish level 12s like the Five Kings of the Black Domain, mediocre level 12s like the Soul Binding Treasures, top level 12s like the Evil God Transformers like Hunger, and the Wang Family's sons who are also top level 12s but are definitely stronger than the Evil God Transformers like Hunger, as well as the even stronger Pseudo-Six Pillars.
It is impossible to predict in advance what level Scarlett will reach after her promotion, and it can only be tested through actual combat.
Besides the Soul Binding Immortal Venerable, the other four present were all ordinary level twelves. With their combined strength, could they possibly fight against the bottom of the level twelve? Or perhaps even slightly inferior?
In short, everything needs to be fought first.
But Xia Lin always believed in one thing:
Scarlett, who possesses the Heavenly Palace and the Heavenly Dao Equation, will definitely not be defeated when facing the Blue Witch and the other four!
Scarlett nodded slightly, then took a deep breath.
The next second, her body moved without wind and slowly floated in the air.
Accompanied by violent tremors in the space.
A familiar giant shadow slowly appeared in front of the Blue Witch and the other three from nothing.
The Blue Witch shuddered all over, the Fist Demon and the Flame Demon exchanged a glance with grim expressions, the Soul Singer's guitar music also stopped instantly, and the four-member band gasped in unison!
As former subordinates of the Lord of Heaven, how could they not recognize the true appearance of the giant shadow that was slowly emerging?
The treasure palace!
This is the first time since its birth that it has fallen into the hands of outsiders and is controlled by outsiders!
But after a brief panic, the four Blue Witches looked at each other, and instead of being afraid, they were eager to try.
The Heavenly Palace is, after all, just a dead object.
How much power it can exert depends entirely on the level of the holder.
As for the woman who was in charge of the Heavenly Palace, she had just entered the twelfth level. The aura of the universe's gift on her body had not completely disappeared, and she was alone and weak.
How could she, alone, possibly unleash the full might of a powerful treasure like the Heavenly Palace?
"This is not a disaster, but an opportunity."
The Blue Witch spoke in a deep voice.
"Reclaiming the Heavenly Palace is a great achievement!"
