Sitting in the Ziwei Palace, Lin Zhongtian can overlook the billions of underworlds in the mythological multiverse.
At the same time, with the authority of Emperor Ziwei, he can extend his power to these worlds.
Based on this, Void proposed a temporary protection measure for the time travelers, that is, to give them the necessary help to break the situation and change their fate before they are about to die, which is commonly known as the golden finger and the time traveler plug-in.
However, so far, this measure can only cover the mythological multiverse and cannot reach the world outside the mythological multiverse.
But even so, for the travelers in the billions of lower realms of the mythological multiverse, this temporary protection measure can still be regarded as a godsend.
While Lin Zhongtian, Nie Changchuan and the other two were observing the Journey to the West, many travelers from the lower world activated this measure.
At that time, Lin Zhongtian just cast a quick glance over and saw that each of them had broken through the predicament and changed their fate with the help of the plug-in, so he did not stay for too long.
It was not until he opened the world chosen by Nie Changchuan that he suddenly discovered that the traveler from that world happened to trigger the temporary protection measures at this moment.
"Um?"
Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise: "No way, this guy can also activate the golden finger?"
That’s right, long before Nie Changchuan mentioned this world, Lin Zhongtian had already cast his gaze towards that world, and through layers of worlds, he saw the traveler from that world.
Leaving aside other information for now, just the cultivation strength of this traverser can be considered first-tier in his world. As long as he doesn't do anything that would defy fate, he can travel around the world as he pleases.
Lin Zhongtian could never have imagined that a guy with such strength could be forced to activate the golden finger...
why is that?
Thinking of this, Lin Zhongtian became curious and immediately looked towards that world.
…
…
In the sky, dark clouds rolled and the weather changed color. A figure wearing a purple robe with cloud patterns stood in the clouds, with the corners of his clothes fluttering in the wind. His handsome face was as pale as paper, with a trace of bright red blood hanging from the corner of his mouth.
But even so, he still stood proudly in the clouds, glaring at the besieging figures around him.
If there were a cultivator here who knew a thing or two about the demon world, he would have discovered that the figures on the black clouds in the sky, each with an astonishing aura and raging demonic flames, were actually the famous demon kings and ghost kings.
The target of their siege, the Taoist priest in a purple robe with cloud patterns, was the most famous demon in the past five hundred years!
Of course, the word "monster" was given to him by someone else. That person called himself Zishan Zhenren, and the skills he practiced were also orthodox immortal cultivation. It's just that his style of doing things was quite arbitrary, both good and evil, and therefore he was classified as a demon by the righteous.
With the strength of Master Zishan, few people in the three realms dare to provoke him.
But today, many demon kings and ghost kings came together and wanted to kill him.
There is no doubt that there is a reason for this!
Sure enough, after completely trapping Master Zishan in the formation, a demonic figure emerged from the black clouds, looking down at the purple-robed Taoist below with an indifferent expression.
"Zishan, I will give you one more chance. Hand over the Buddha's relics immediately and share them with us. Otherwise..."
"Bah!"
The purple-robed Taoist interrupted him with disdain, glared at the demon king and said, "You guys think you can benefit from me?"
"I have traveled across the three realms in my life. When have I ever been threatened by others?"
"Demon King Peng, just give up. Even if I die, I will never give you the Buddha's relic!"
As he spoke, he took out a golden bead, stuffed it into his mouth in full view of everyone, and then swallowed it in one gulp.
Many demon kings on the black cloud were horrified and said hurriedly: "Zishan, stop, we can discuss this!"
Master Zishan sneered and said, "It's too late to discuss it now - Fission Technique, Heaven and Earth Live Together!!"
With an angry roar, Zishan Zhenren's body cracked like porcelain. Countless golden and red lights burst out from the cracks, illuminating the sky and the earth in an instant, and then suddenly exploded.
Terrifying energy exploded instantly, transforming into energy tides that could even shatter space, sweeping madly in all directions.
Above the black cloud, many demon kings and ghost kings were terrified and used various means to escape frantically.
But unfortunately, in the face of that terrifying energy tide, most of the demon kings could not escape the fate of death and were crushed into dust by that terrifying energy in despair and regret.
Only a small number of demon kings escaped in time, and they looked at the brilliant ocean of energy in front of them in shock.
"etc!"
A voice similar to a narration suddenly appeared.
In an instant, the surging energy tide, the crushed body of the Demon King, the expression on the surviving Demon King's face, the black clouds impacted by the energy, and even the distorted space were all frozen in place.
The next moment, a handsome young man in a green robe appeared in the sky, looking at the center of the energy ocean with a frown.
"Wait, wait, isn't this plot developing too fast?!"
"Also, this time traveler has too much temper. It's just a Buddha relic. At most, I can just throw it away and let them fight for it. Why do they have to fight to the death and use the move of heaven and earth to live together?"
“…Isn’t it good to be alive?”
There is no doubt that this Taoist in green robe is the projection incarnation of Lin Zhongtian in this world.
He looked at the exploding figure of Master Zishan and complained a few words, then raised his hand and couldn't help but calculate.
After a moment, Lin Zhongtian lowered his arms, looked thoughtfully at Master Zishan who had died together with him, and muttered, "So that's how it is!"
This matter is simple and complicated at the same time.
To sum it up in one sentence, Master Zishan obtained a treasure, but the secret was leaked by the people around him. He was then besieged by a group of old acquaintances. As a last resort, he used his own secret technique to die together with his enemies.
However, Master Zishan is not that tough. He actually values his life very much.
This time he easily performed the secret technique of extending the lifespan of heaven and earth because he was confident that he could survive the explosion.
The most valuable treasure he obtained was the skull relic left behind by Sakyamuni, the ancestor of this world, after his Nirvana.
In addition to the common Buddha power, this relic also contains a trace of Nirvana power. Zishan Zhenren swallowed it, seemingly not wanting the demon kings to get it, but actually wanted to take advantage of the power of Nirvana to reincarnate and escape...
Thinking of this, Lin Zhongtian raised his hand and the scene in front of him suddenly turned into a stream of light and began to flow away rapidly.
That’s right, before Lin Zhongtian cast his gaze over, Master Zishan had already activated the golden finger.
So the scene he saw was actually a reappearance of the past, not the present time.
In an instant, the demon king disappeared, his energy was annihilated, the sun and the moon rotated, and the clouds rolled and dispersed.
Looking at the colorful scene in front of him, Lin Zhongtian suddenly reached out and froze it.
The world before his eyes changed from the original sky to a lush green hill.
There is a huge rock on the mountain, about one person tall. After being beaten by rain and wind, the rock has been eroded and has become bumpy.
To mortals, this boulder is just an ordinary weathered rock.
But in the eyes of practitioners, the erosion of this stone is quite exquisite. Seven of the nine orifices have been opened, and there is even spiritual energy flowing in and out of the orifices. In a hundred years at most, it will be possible to cultivate from a piece of stone into a spirit.
It’s a pity that there is not much time left for this stone.
The next second, a weak consciousness emerged from it and completely occupied the stone.
There is no doubt that this weak consciousness is the True Man Zishan who escaped from danger with the power of Nirvana.
After he possessed the stone, he looked inside the stone's structure and sighed somewhat depressedly.
This stone is still a stone embryo at present, and it needs to absorb and exhale spiritual energy for another hundred years before it can become a spirit.
Even if he used secret techniques to actively absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, it would take at least several years before he could gain the power to act independently.
"There is no other way but to start from scratch."
"Demon King Peng, and that stinky toad, just wait. When I make a comeback, I will definitely kill you..."
Just as Master Zishan was thinking with gritted teeth, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"It has been detected that the host is in a fatal crisis. The system for changing fate is being installed..."
"ah?"
The spirit in the boulder was stunned upon hearing this.
...What's going on?
Is this an auditory hallucination?
Or was it that he was bewitched by the vixen's magical power before his nirvana?
Or... my time traveler's golden finger has finally been delayed? !
Thinking of this, Master Zishan became extremely excited.
However, considering the first two possibilities, he still did not let down his guard and cautiously asked, "System?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the system in Master Zishan's soul suddenly started to freak out: "Error, error... It has been detected that the crisis has been resolved, and the Heaven-Defying Fate-Changing System is being uninstalled..."
Upon hearing these words, Master Zishan was stunned again.
When he came to his senses, he didn't care whether it was true or not, or whether there was any conspiracy, and said in panic: "No, no, I'm in a fatal crisis. If you don't believe me, check it again, don't uninstall it directly!"
"Hey, System Brother, System Dad, can you hear me?!"
After hearing the inner thoughts of Master Zishan, Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but frown.
He knew something was wrong with the void distribution system.
The situation of Master Zishan was special. He borrowed the Buddha's relics to be reborn in Nirvana, which caused a mistake in the judgment of Void and triggered two problems. One was the delay in issuing the golden finger, and the other was the re-testing after issuance and uninstallation and recycling.
“That’s a bit inhumane…”
Lin Zhongtian shook his head and thought that he would urge Xukong to fix the loophole after returning.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhongtian turned around, looked at the county town at the foot of the mountain behind him, smiled slightly, and waved at the huge rock.
In an instant, the convulsing system stabilized, and the mechanical electronic synthesized sound appeared in Master Zishan's mind again.
"System vulnerability detected, repairing..."
"The system vulnerability has been repaired and the system is being reinstalled..."
"Installation completed, welcome to use the Xianwu Disciple Recruiting System!"
...Disciple recruitment system?
Master Zishan was slightly startled, then angrily said: "What kind of a damn system is this!"
"Hurry up and give me back my destiny-changing system!"
