Lin Yun looked at the ancient scale pattern on the first page of the Book of Death and couldn't help recalling the Meditation Law Set he had obtained before. It only had six core offensive Equilibrium Law Sets, but it could restrain two of the most powerful Meditation Law Sets and even forcibly increase the core formula of the Elemental Heart. This was the power of balance. It seemed useless, but it had a kind of irresistible might.
The first chapter didn't have any powerful momentum, but it could firmly suppress the following chapters. Lin Yun hadn't thought of this when he obtained these Augments. The Augments fused with the Book of Death were arranged according to the order they were obtained. This order didn't have any effect on the power of the Book of Death or the power of the Augments.
But it now looked like it really did have an effect. The Balance Chapter was the foundation, the most powerful Augment, and it was the key to suppressing all the other Magic Tool Constructs.
After the Balance Chapter appeared, the chains on the surface of the Book of Death thoroughly disappeared. The chains that the Book of Death had condensed on its own were no longer needed. As long as the Balance Chapter was present, no matter how unruly those Magic Tool Constructs were, they would be completely suppressed and there wouldn't be any chance of them going out of control.
That strange soul had been able to rush out a bit before, or at least form a sphere of light on the surface of the Book of Death. But now, it was like a rigid abstract oil painting printed on the page, it didn't have the slightest bit of power.
Just as the Balance Chapter appeared, Lin Yun didn't have time to test its abilities when a powerful light suddenly appeared on the surface of the Book of Death. After the light flickered, Lin Yun disappeared, leaving only the Book of Death floating there.
The Book of Death automatically closed and calmly floated there. Ripples visible to the naked eye spread out from the Book of Death, as if a new world had been forcibly opened there. The Book of Death could still be seen there, but no one could touch it.
Lin Yun was startled as he was wrapped in light, but he quickly calmed down.
When he reappeared, there was nothing in the void. A ray of light slowly appeared in the void and a humanoid lifeform walked out of that light. With one step, it turned into a skeleton, with the second step, it turned into a zombie, and with the third step, it turned into a living person emitting a rich aura of life. It looked 80% similar to Lin Yun, but its gaze was as deep as the abyss.
"We meet again, what are you planning to do this time?"
Lin Yun smiled as he looked at the person in front of him.
The Magic Tool Incarnation of the Book of Death had sunk into silence after seeing it once. When he obtained the Book of Death, there wasn't a single Augment, only the Book of Death itself. Although it was an Extraordinary Magic Tool, it was definitely the highest level Extraordinary Magic Tool, but it was the kind of strange existence with the lowest fighting power.
The Book of Death's nurturing had been interrupted due to all kinds of accidents, and it had even wandered out of the Undead Plane. Wanting to nurture it completely was impossible, and the Augments were scattered all over the world. Even if Lin Yun didn't go and get the Book of Death, the Book of Death wouldn't be able to keep becoming more powerful.
At that time, he fought the Book of Death's Incarnation. The two of them had the same rank, the same mana, and the same casting power. In the end, Lin Yun barely won. At that time, Lin Yun didn't understand why it was like this.
Now that he thought about it, it was definitely because of the power of the Balance Chapter. The Book of Death simply couldn't crush Lin Yun. The Balance Chapter didn't appear, but the Laws themselves were imprinted within the Book of Death.
The Book of Death already had ten chapters, and although the World Chapter hadn't merged with the Book of Death and had been merged into the Natural Demiplane by Lin Yun, it could still be considered a part of it.
It just so happened that the World Chapter was in the Natural Demiplane, and the World Chapter itself was Lin Yun's power. It was normal for the Book of Death's Incarnation to awaken from its slumber.
If the World Chapter was merged with the Book of Death, then this void would turn into a true world, just like a new Natural Demiplane. With the Book of Death as the core, the world established within it might not be as good as the Natural Demiplane, but in terms of development speed and perfection, it would definitely surpass the Natural Demiplane's natural evolution.
But that world would never become a true world, there was no doubt about it. Only a Natural Demiplane could develop into a true world, a world born naturally.
The Book of Death's Incarnation calmly looked at Lin Yun with a complicated expression.
"You are very powerful. I didn't expect you to become so powerful in such a short time. You even completed all the chapters and awakened the Balance Chapter because of you.
But this isn't the reason why I'm submitting to you. I was born in the Undead Plane, the place where countless creatures and worlds end. This place contains the plane, the void, the world, and everything else. I'm born from endless death, and I've never been able to submit to anyone in the first place.
"But to tell the truth, I'm very optimistic about you. You have all the characteristics of the Book of Death. Now, let me see your strength. After such a long time, let's see if you can make me serve you."
The Incarnation's aura rapidly rose and stopped after reaching the Peak of the Heaven Rank. Lin Yun also felt his own power continuously rising and also reaching the Peak of the Heaven Rank.
At this moment, his comprehension of the Laws had reached perfection. All the Laws he comprehended had reached perfection. Earth, Fire, Water, Wind, Light, Darkness, Space, every Law had been completely comprehended. The Laws of the world itself were completely grasped by Lin Yun. That feeling of perfection even made Lin Yun feel that his soul had become full and round, as if he was only a bit away from a qualitative change.
Godfire, that was the feeling of everything reaching a qualitative change. It was the feeling of igniting a Godfire. This was the true peak of the Heaven Rank, a true perfection without a single flaw.
Lin Yun didn't take out his magic staff, nor did he take out his Magic Tool. He only relied on his own strength to prepare for battle.
This situation already surprised Lin Yun. According to the legends, after Bane obtained the Book of Death, he never thoroughly controlled the Book of Death. Even when Bane was powerful enough to conquer the Undead Plane and become as powerful as a God, he still couldn't make the Book of Death completely surrender.
It wasn't just because he hadn't completely collected the Augments. Not all of the Augments of the Book of Death had a solid body. Like the All-Encompassing Chapter, it only appeared after Lin Yun's foundation of Laws reached perfection. The Balance Chapter also appeared on its own after the conditions were met.
Lin Yun didn't know if Bane had the Balance Chapter when he obtained the Book of Death, but he was certain that the All-Encompassing Chapter wasn't there.
The Book of Death had always been very mysterious. Bane didn't make the Book of Death completely surrender. Lin Yun had obtained the Book of Death for such a long time, and apart from the initial appearance of the Magic Tool Incarnation, it had sunk into eternal silence. At that time, Lin Yun only left an imprint on the Book of Death, which represented that the Book of Death was his and could be used by him.
But that didn't mean that the Book of Death had already surrendered to him. The Magic Tool Incarnation hadn't completely surrendered and hadn't left an imprint on the Magic Tool Incarnation. The Book of Death could be taken away at any time. In fact, even if someone obtained the Book of Death, as long as they left an imprint on it, they could directly use it.
To a Magic Tool, the Magic Tool Incarnation was the most important thing. Many of the abilities of a Magic Tool required the Magic Tool Incarnation. Sometimes, the Magic Tool Incarnation's abilities were the strongest, or the main ability of a Magic Tool lay in the Magic Tool Incarnation.
Just like Shawn, the Magic Tool Incarnation didn't have any abilities on its own. At most, it was a place where Shawn resided. All of its power and abilities came from Shawn himself.
The Bloody Lich wanted to snatch the Book of Death before, so he was very clear about the details of the Book of Death. He knew that the Book of Death was nurtured in the Undead Plane. As the largest and most special Higher Plane, an Extraordinary Magic Tool nurtured by it could definitely be considered the most powerful Extraordinary Magic Tool. It was a lot more powerful than Extraordinary Magic Tools nurtured by other planes.
The Bloody Lich definitely knew that Lin Yun hadn't completely subdued the Book of Death, nor had he subdued the Magic Tool Incarnation. That was why he wanted to snatch it. If the Magic Tool Incarnation was subdued, then snatching the Book of Death wouldn't allow him to gain the Book of Death's approval.
Now, the Magic Tool Incarnation of the Book of Death actually displayed such an attitude. Lin Yun didn't want to be surprised. Lin Yun already knew how stubborn and arrogant that guy was. Even a God-like powerhouse like Bane couldn't make the Book of Death surrender, so it was easy to understand how difficult it was to make the Incarnation surrender.
When he obtained the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras, the Incarnation of the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras had awakened. At that time, it wasn't impossible to directly destroy the Incarnation of the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras and replace it with another Incarnation. After all, the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras had just advanced to become an Extraordinary Magic Tool and its Incarnation had just awakened.
But that was definitely impossible for the Book of Death. The Book of Death had already become an Extraordinary Magic Tool, and its Incarnation had already been nurtured. It had already thoroughly fused with the Book of Death. Destroying the Incarnation of the Book of Death was no different from destroying the Book of Death.
Moreover, the Book of Death was an innate Extraordinary Magic Tool nurtured by the Undead Plane. It simply couldn't be destroyed unless one's strength reached the God realm.
