Engulf
After Luo Zheng turned the corner, he saw the end of the tunnel.
Just as he had expected, the end of the tunnel was a desert made of fine, multicolored sand.
Strong winds blew, sweeping up the fine, multicolored sand and sending it into the tunnel.
Luo Zheng didn't stop. He strode straight into the desert. The desert in front of him was exactly the same as the one he had seen in the space-time on both sides of the tunnel.
However, he knew that the deserts in the space-time were all in the past. The desert in front of him represented the present!
The only difference was that the wind in this desert seemed to be much weaker. The tornadoes that had swept through the desert had also disappeared. Luo Zheng's gaze swept around. The center of the desert was originally surrounded by sand dunes. However, at this moment, the sand dunes had already collapsed …
"Did that baby crawl out of the basin in the center of the sand dunes?" Luo Zheng thought to himself.
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, a giggling sound rang in Luo Zheng's ears again. Luo Zheng then saw a huge baby on the other side of the sand dune.
The cross-shaped pattern that was originally hanging in the air had already descended on the baby's head. The baby was sitting on the ground and playing with the sand on the ground.
He saw the baby insert his hands into the sand. After gently kneading the sand, he suddenly threw it at Luo Zheng!
After the sand was kneaded into a ball, it turned into a multicolored spiral and strangled towards Luo Zheng!
Whoosh!
The multicolored spiral didn't fly very fast. Luo Zheng's figure gently turned and flew in the air, avoiding the spiral.
"Ge ge ge …"
However, the baby didn't seem to care. With a naive and unaffected appearance, he still tirelessly picked up the sand and gently kneaded it before throwing it at Luo Zheng.
That spiral was still easily avoided by Luo Zheng.
When Luo Zheng's position changed, he suddenly discovered that the Immeasurable Ruler in his mind had also changed direction.
In other words, the Immeasurable Ruler wasn't pointing at a certain place in the labyrinth, but at the baby!
"The Infinite Ruler is guiding me to this baby?" Luo Zheng's eyes twitched slightly, but he still didn't understand what this baby represented.
While Luo Zheng was thinking, the baby suddenly crawled up from the desert.
The baby's body was three to four hundred feet tall. It looked like a tall building. Unexpectedly, it strode straight towards Luo Zheng.
"Dong dong dong …"
Under this constant running, Luo Zheng felt a strong sense of oppression.
Seeing this, Luo Zheng chose to retreat. The baby was not slow, so it was easy for him to distance himself from the baby.
But just as he retreated, the baby suddenly let out a strange cry.
"Wow!"
This strange cry contained a trace of anger.
When Luo Zheng heard the sound, his whole body suddenly shook violently, as if a huge bell was ringing in his ears. He couldn't move at all, as if he had been immobilized. He could only watch as the baby ran over!
At this moment, 9527 spoke again, "Can't you see? This baby is a newborn will, and it wants to devour you. "
"A newborn will? Devour me? "Luo Zheng was slightly stunned.
Along the way, Luo Zheng had been observing the movements in the labyrinth. 9527 was also observing and thinking.
At first, when he saw the scene in the space-time on the wall of the tunnel, he also didn't understand. But when Luo Zheng really came to this desert, he roughly guessed the cause and effect.
"Actually, when I first followed you to the Divine Realm, I didn't understand how the Divine Realm maintained its purity …" 9527 said faintly.
"What do you mean by purity … Hurry up, that guy is rushing over," Luo Zheng said anxiously.
This baby looked innocent, but who knew what kind of ability it had?
It could freeze him with just its laughter. Luo Zheng was afraid that it would be difficult for him to defeat it.
However, 9527 was not worried. "Don't panic. A newborn will is very simple. It doesn't have many tricks. At most, it will just devour you and inherit your will …"
"Devour me?" Luo Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but the expression on his face was wooden. Just now, he couldn't even control the expression on his face. "You're not saying that this baby is the consciousness of the Divine Realm, are you? But it's so small! "
Luo Zheng had also thought about this problem. His world's consciousness had been born in the Dayan Universe, but that world's consciousness was still within the scope of control. However, he had never seen anything similar in the Divine Realm, so he had some guesses about it.
"Yes," 9527 agreed. "Generally, once a world is out of one's control, it will develop its own will. This law of the Great World Cultivation Method is unavoidable. Logically speaking, the Divine Realm must have developed its own consciousness after being out of Chi You's control for so long. However, Chi You seems to have used the Sea of Time to constantly suppress this consciousness. What you saw in the space-time on both sides of the tunnel was the process of suppression."
For countless years, this process had been constantly repeated.
Every time a newborn will began to condense, the Sea of Time would pour down and tear it to pieces. This cycle repeated over and over again.
"But why is this will condensing now?" Luo Zheng asked.
9527 shook his head. "I'm not sure. This will has not been condensed for long. It should have just been born. Maybe there was a mistake in one of the links, or … the person responsible for crushing the newborn will has died?"
9527's guess was infinitely close to the truth.
The person responsible for repeatedly crushing the newborn will of the Divine Realm was the female leader of the Blind Tribe. Since she took over the Sea of Time, this had become her mission.
When she discovered that the Saint Mountain had arrived in advance, she already knew that the Infinite Ruler had been activated. Of course, she also knew that her mission was over. In order to prevent herself from being threatened, she decisively ended her life.
"No matter what the problem is, the biggest problem now is how to deal with this guy," Luo Zheng said to 9527 in his mind.
"Actually, the newborn will is very pure. It has just been born and has almost no distracting thoughts and self-awareness. That's why it is in the form of a baby. Even if it swallows you, your memory will quickly affect it. At that time, it will become you, so it doesn't matter if it is swallowed …" 9527 said.
"Are you kidding?" Luo Zheng shouted in his mind.
Although 9527's words made some sense, even if he was swallowed by the baby, if the two merged into one, Luo Zheng would still be Luo Zheng. However, the baby would probably be affected by his messy memory and eventually become Luo Zheng.
