Ling Chen stretched out his hand and took the Star God Orb from Ye Wu Ya's hand. Now, he had obtained 2 of the 3 Saint Orbs, and he was only missing the Sun God Orb from completing the Lunar Scourge.
Ling Chen did not immediately look at the Star God Orb's stats. After hesitating for a moment, he asked seriously, "Night Emperor, the Lunar Scourge has always been something that the Moon Deities will definitely destroy, and your bloodline and power come from the Moon Deities. Even though you're the Night Emperor, this can't change. What's more, you experienced the Shura's Devastation 10,000 years ago, and your daughter was implicated, causing you to be separated for 10,000 years … as such, you should hate or fear the Lunar Scourge, right? Why did you give this Star God Orb to me? Back then, the Lunar Scourge only had 12 God Orbs, and it created the Shura's Devastation. If the Lunar Scourge returns to the Star God Orb, the consequences will be even more terrifying than 10,000 years ago. "
"Haha …" Hearing Ling Chen's words, Ye Wu Ya calmly laughed. Perhaps the 3 years that Qi Yue gave him had given him hope again. His gaze was no longer cloudy, and even his hunched back was straightened. There were no longer any traces of insanity on him … as the Night Emperor, how could he have gone mad? Over these years, he had been in despair and blaming himself, using insanity and depression to numb himself. He calmly said, "Since you obtained the Lunar Scourge, you naturally know about the Shura's Devastation 10,000 years ago. That was indeed a calamity that could cover the heavens. However, the people of that era only saw the calamity, yet they didn't see the effects of this calamity on the future generations … I even believe that although the Shura's consciousness only contained killing intent, if the Chi Xuan Sword Emperor's consciousness was clear, perhaps he would have done the same thing as the Shura. "
Ling Chen felt quite startled … he immediately thought of what the Shura's remnant soul had said to him. He had said that he didn't regret becoming a Shura, nor did he regret slaughtering the world …
At that time, Shura's remnant soul consciousness was extremely clear, but he still didn't regret it … At that time, Ling Chen couldn't understand why he said he didn't regret it. Because the Chi Xuan Sword Emperor was originally an extremely righteous and genuine Peak Ranker, but after becoming an Asura, he committed a sinful act that incurred the wrath of the heavens, yet he firmly said that he did not regret it …
Ye Wu Ya raised his head to the sky and sighed as he said emotionally, "That's right, he slaughtered 10% of all creatures in the Forgotten Continent. At that time, I was also filled with hatred, fear, and panic … But as time passed, I finally realized that the Shura wasn't slaughtering, but cleansing … He destroyed one-tenth of the living beings on the continent, but in exchange, he brought peace and stability to the future generations! Such an achievement had never been seen before in history. My hatred and fear towards the Shura also turned into deep admiration and admiration after a thousand years. "
"This … I don't understand at all." Ling Chen was flabbergasted. Slaughtering one-tenth of the living beings on the continent, but saving thousands of generations? What kind of logic was this?
"Without experiencing that era, perhaps you won't understand," Ye Wu Ya said calmly. "Do you know what the Forgotten Continent was like 10,000 years ago? Back then, the Forgotten Continent was filled with demons and devils, and the warlike clans continuously caused all sorts of disasters. The peace-loving clans continuously went extinct, and some had no choice but to go into hiding. This was especially so for the human world, which was incredibly chaotic, and there were battles almost every day … the Chi Xuan Sword Emperor's beloved wife and son died because of the human world's wars. "
Ling Chen: "!!!!!"
"The Chi Xuan Battle Emperor was extremely emotional, and the death of his wife and son caused him so much pain that he wanted to die. Back then, there were legends in the Forgotten Continent that the Lunar Scourge could create Shuras. As such, after much difficulty, he found the sealed Lunar Scourge and asked to become the Lunar Scourge's puppet. He gathered the 12 God Orbs and devoured my daughter, giving the Lunar Scourge the ability to create Shuras … following this, the Shura was born and started to massacre … no! It was a cleansing process. "
"Now that I think about it, when he started to search for the Lunar Scourge, he knew that after becoming a Shura, he would die to the Moon Deities and the wrath of the heavens. However, this was the outcome he wanted because his goal wasn't to destroy all living beings. After cleansing, he had to accept his own death … afterwards, he withstood the wrath of the heavens and destroyed one-tenth of the living beings on the Forgotten Continent before completely disappearing. Following this, the Demon Beast Clan, which had been hiding for a long time, moved out and wreaked havoc on the world. They were destroyed by the Moon Deities and Fairy Clans … if it wasn't for the Shura's Devastation, who knows how many more years the Demon Beast Clan would have stayed hidden. By the time they were fully fledged, the consequences would have been unimaginable. After the Shura's Devastation, the Forgotten Continent, which had been cleansed by blood, became peaceful for many years. In order to rebuild their destroyed homes, the various clans had to work together, and no more battles occurred. The human world also became ruled by the same Emperor, and there was a long period of peace. The frequency of battles became incredibly low, and they would only occur once every few hundred years. After thousands of years, the Forgotten Continent has become incredibly peaceful. The various clans have done good to each other, and the human clan has become incredibly stable under the rule of a single ruler. There are no longer any traces of war, and I'm sure that the Forgotten Continent is as peaceful as it was before. "
"If it wasn't for the Shura's cleansing, the Forgotten Continent wouldn't exist today. Although the cleansing was incredibly cruel, I realised that it was the most effective, and could even be said to be the only method. The Shura indeed destroyed countless living beings, but it's not an exaggeration to say that he saved the entire Forgotten Continent. As for the Shura from back then, who is also the Chi Xuan Sword Emperor, I can only feel admiration and admiration. This is because he used his eternal infamy, blood debts, and his own death to exchange for all of this. There are countless heroes in the Forgotten Continent, but none of them can compare to him. "
Ling Chen stared with wide eyes. During the past year in the Mystic Moon world, he had heard many rumours about the Shura. However, the Shura that he had heard was a powerful, merciless, cruel, and evil creature. However, from Ye Wu Ya, he had heard a completely different Shura. In his eyes, this was a hero who had saved the Mystic Moon world for thousands of generations.
"So you're willing to give the Star God Orb to me?" Ling Chen asked in surprise.
"That's not the main reason," Ye Wu Ya said softly. Ye Wu Ya said softly, "The main reason is because of my daughter, and also …" He deeply looked at Ling Chen as he said, "Back then, I fought with the Shura and was able to escape with my life. Even after 10,000 years, his aura is still fresh in my memory. Moreover, you have a similar aura to him back then. As such, you should have obtained the Shura's power from the Lunar Scourge, right? "
"… That's right," Ling Chen nodded and did not deny it.
Ye Wu Ya slowly said, "Obtaining the Shura's power without losing one's nature is something that has never happened even in legends. At the very least, this proves that your mental energy is incredibly powerful and that you can control the Lunar Scourge and the Shura's power without paying a price in your mind or soul. Moreover, you're not an evil person, and perhaps you're a good person. At the very least, you won't do evil to the world, and perhaps you'll use this power to protect this continent. In that case, what's the harm in having this power fall into your hands? "
Ling Chen smiled. "No less than expected from the Night Emperor with such breadth of mind and insight."
"Hahahaha," the Night Emperor loudly laughed. Perhaps it was because he had not laughed in a long time, but his laughter was quite stiff. He patted Ling Chen's shoulder. "After obtaining the Star God Orb, you'll most likely choose to go to the Forgotten Continent, right? In that case, I'll go with you. Even though I haven't seen Yue 'Er yet, seeing that the Lunar Scourge has seen the light of day again and has an invincible owner that even I can't see through, I feel at ease. Moreover, as long as I wait for 3 years, I'll be able to fulfill my greatest wish, so I don't need to continue being so dispirited. I should return to the Forgotten Continent and see how it's doing … or perhaps find the descendants of old friends. "
"Alright," Ling Chen nodded, but he immediately thought of something and shook his head, saying, "However, I have some things that I need to do here, so I won't be able to return to the Forgotten Continent with you."
"Mm, that's fine." The Night Emperor casually nodded. "I'm sure that even without my help, you'll find a way to return to the Forgotten Continent. In that case, go and do what you need to do. I'll return to the Forgotten Continent first. "
"Don't worry, you definitely won't be disappointed in 3 years."
"Hahahaha, let's meet again in 3 years."
As the Night Emperor spoke, his body disappeared in a flash of white light. He had the power of the Moon Deities, so he could naturally travel to this world. Even though he was still unable to see his daughter, who he had been searching for 10,000 years, at least he knew that his daughter was safe and had some hope, so his heart naturally opened up.
After the Night Emperor left, Ling Chen took out the Star God Orb and looked at its stats in anticipation.
[Star God Orb]: Type: Energy Orb, Grade: Super Saint Destroyer, Stats: None. Equipment Requirements: Can only be socketed in the Lunar Scourge. Effects: MP + 50000000, can summon and recall the [Lunar Scourge Divine Armour] at any time.
The Star God Orb's stats caused Ling Chen to sigh in amazement. As expected from a Saint Orb that was on the same level as the Moon Deities, its stats were just as monstrous as the Moon Deities Orbs. The Moon Deities Orb gave 50000000 HP, while the Star God Orb gave 50000000 MP. The Moon Deities Orb could summon the Moon Deities Spear, while the Star God Orb could summon the Lunar Scourge Divine Armour!
The spear was for attack, while the armour was for defence. With how powerful the Moon Deities Spear was, one could only imagine how heaven-defying the Lunar Scourge Divine Armour's defence would be!
Ling Chen became incredibly excited, and he impatiently socketed the Star God Orb into the Lunar Scourge.
"Ding … the [Star God Orb] has been successfully socketed, your base MP + 50000000, and you can summon the [Lunar Scourge Divine Armour] at any time."
Ling Chen looked at his current HP – 200472880!
This was a number that would never appear on a player's HP, and it was an astronomical figure in the player world! After all, increasing MP was far more difficult than increasing HP, and this was especially so for physical creatures. Normally, MP was less than 10% of HP, and the amount of MP that Ling Chen had was something that even Mages in the human world could not compare to.
"Ding … the Lunar Scourge's exclusive lunar skill [Moon Disaster] has been unlocked."
"Ding … the Lunar Scourge has returned 12 God Orbs and 2 Saint Orbs. The Lunar Scourge's exclusive lunar skill [Half Moon] has been upgraded to [Waxing Moon]."
