Li Xiang's counterattack was the best answer.
No matter what the Holy Church of God had experienced, he did not care and did not want to know. The failure of the Holy Church of God did not mean that he, Li Xiang, would fail. Even if the enemy came from outside the universe, even if no one was destined to be spared, he still had to try.
This was his path, his path, and the belief that he had always carried out.
He was able to become a Polar night player and appear as the light in the darkest moment because of this indestructible belief.
Lan Yueji looked at him, her eyes a little blurred. What was that? Was he young and impetuous? Was he young and ignorant? A mantis trying to stop a chariot? A moth flying into a flame?
No.
She suddenly wavered.
For thousands of years, she had lived here alone. She had watched the flowers bloom and fall for thousands of years and the clouds rise and fall for an era. It had been so long that she had almost forgotten who she was, but she had never wavered.
In the war back then, heaven and earth were destroyed. Even he, who had dominated the universe and was invincible in various worlds, lost. He was drowned by the catastrophe and left behind only the Holy Monument.
Not only him, but also all the previous eras. No one survived. They all died in the catastrophe.
They thought that they had died, but they were led by an unknown force and became the dead. Since they had made a comeback, they returned to the world.
It was just that the power behind it was too terrifying. It was so strong that she trembled and did not dare to have the slightest thought of resistance.
If at that time they still had the confidence to resist the catastrophe and hold on like the humans here with the heart to fight to the death, after seeing "their" power, their determination disappeared.
Just as she had said, it was an unstoppable disaster. It was the true catastrophe of the universe. Even the Eternal existences could not escape. They could only wait to be killed.
However, the aura that this young man exuded made her inexplicably waver. It was unreal, but the fluctuation of her emotions was real.
"Who are 'they'? Are they the masterminds who ordered you to return as the cataclysm? You said that the universe's annihilation will affect the Eternal existences? " Li Xiang looked back at her. The fighting under the peak was still going on, but because she was no longer dancing, no new players climbed up.
"'They' … can't be sensed, can't be described, can't be understood, and can't be named. They are the true terror of the unknown. I only know that 'they' resurrected us. No, that doesn't include me. One day, when the epoch can no longer be replaced, 'they' will break the shackles and come to this universe. " Lan Yue Ji's eyes were blurred. She muttered in a low voice. Her mood fluctuated greatly as if she could go crazy at any moment.
Li Xiang frowned. This description was close to the level of Eternal Existences. In his impression, all Eternal Existences also had this indescribable quality, which was the suppression of the Dimensional Dimensions. Humans were too insignificant, and understanding this would bring them destruction.
Just reciting its name would bring about unimaginable terror.
But clearly, the "they" Lan Yueji spoke of were different from the Eternal existences. They seemed to be stronger, stranger, and not of this universe.
"As far as I know, the Master of the Universe is Azathoth," Li Xiang said. "Rumor has it that he is favored by the Creator, and his status is even higher than that of the Sanyuan Pillar God. If 'they' come from outside the universe, does that mean that other universes also exist?"
The idea of the multiverse was proposed by Yuge Sothoth, and it was also a possibility that he preferred.
The true Creator created countless universes, and each universe was guarded by one of his favored. Over the long years, the various Masters of the Universe created the civilizations of each universe, as well as all living creatures.
Powerful beasts of the universe and weak ants were all created creatures with the same origin. Even the Sanyuan Pillar God was no exception. Therefore, it was even more difficult for them to accept the setting of this caged world. They wanted to escape and go out to take a look.
But whether or not the characters in the story could come out was a matter of doubt.
If "they" had the same status as the Creator, then it was indeed almost impossible to defeat them.
Li Xiang still needed to become an Eternal Existence, return to the status of the Sanyuan Pillar God, and finally reach the level of Azathoth. Perhaps only then would he be qualified to come into contact with that level. Perhaps this was far from enough.
For most life forms, if they were outstanding, reaching level 9 would be the peak.
"Of course it exists. Everyone knows that there is a door in the human world. He also explored similar information in the early years. Unfortunately, he said that without reaching the Eternal Existence level, he was not qualified to explore the truth of the door." Lan Yueji sighed. When she thought of this, her memories were full of that man's voice and smile, but in the end, he was no longer there.
She simply told him everything she knew. In any case, with the passage of time, Li Xiang would eventually know about this information, so it was not a big deal to say it in advance.
Knowing and being able to do something were two completely different things.
Li Xiang quietly listened to her narration, occasionally raising questions. Lan Yueji would quickly answer them until he was satisfied.
In her opinion, "they" should not be comparable to the Creator in terms of status.
If the Creator was truly omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipotent, then he should be able to easily destroy and create anything without any shackles.
But "they" obviously could not do it.
After these dead people came back from the dead, their bodies had actually long decayed. What dominated their bodies were the remnants of their Divine Sense, which was not complete and was more inclined to distortion and darkness.
Therefore, she did not think that the one sitting on the Sacred Monument was the Patriarch of the Templar Church. It was just the return of a soul, a ruthless killing machine that was being manipulated.
No matter how much he acted, he was not him. This fact would not change!
Since it was impossible to completely resurrect a person, it meant that "they" had not reached that level.
"You are already at the Saint level. Whether it is the body or the soul, you have already transcended the shackles of this universe. It is difficult to truly obliterate. Even if you completely die, you will not return to the Eternal Land and will not be under the jurisdiction of the Sanyuan Pillar God and the Eternal Existences." Lan Yueji revealed an important piece of information.
This was precious information obtained by the Patriarch of the Templar Church.
Under Level 10, those who were stronger than Level 9 were still subject to the Eternal Existences. After death, their souls would return to the Eternal Land, and they could even be resurrected unscathed. In essence, it was something that could be mass-produced.
Li Xiang thought of the clone Ming Xu. She was a creature created by Yuge Sothoth through Ming Xu. Her strength was above Level 9, and she evolved from Ming Xu who did not know Li Xiang in all aspects.
She said that she could create countless of such creatures, so Li Xiang did not have to worry too much. If he liked Ming Xu, he could create a lot of them for him.
The premise was that it had nothing to do with the Mother Goddess.
She had already merged with the Mother Goddess, and her soul had become one. The completely awakened Ming Xu's body could not be replicated or created.
Her own level was comparable to Li Xiang, and even half a level higher than Yuge Sothoth. She naturally could not create and use her.
No wonder she wanted to create a clone of Ming Xu to confuse him. She wanted to use her to replace Ming Xu and control Li Xiang.
"Before becoming a Saint, even if you die, it's still a new beginning of reincarnation. It's too painful." Lan Yueji could not help but sigh. Her charming face showed a desperate expression, which made people feel pity for her. "Becoming a Saint can at least make you and the people around you become dead like them. When you revive in the future, you can return to your homeland. It's better than having your memories wiped out and continuing to reincarnate forever, only to be a puppet in the hands of others."
"So what if you become a dead person? Can you get rid of this fate? It's just the pot calling the kettle black. " Li Xiang shook his head. He did not agree with Lan Yueji's view. A trace of emotion was aroused in his heart. He suddenly thought of the initial conversation with Bai Lili. "Transcendence … transcendence … I see. She said transcendence has this meaning. At least Level 10, you have the right to decide your own fate."
After returning from the Eternal Land, Bai Lili, who had been plotted against and dismembered, would rather have her soul fused with the Goddess of Calamity and tried all means to be resurrected than return to the Eternal Land! At that time, she should not have reached Level 10, but she knew some inside information. That was why she became so impatient and anxious.
From the beginning to the end, she did not have King White and the others in her eyes. From the beginning, her height was higher than everyone. When they were still hesitating whether to make a deal with the Emperor family or still hoping to enter the Five King's Realm to find the path above Level 9, Bai Lili had already seen through everything. She understood the secrets of the final catastrophe and "them."
She had been preparing. She said that "they" were invincible and that the power of humans alone was not enough. They needed a new world, they needed to transcend, they needed to go to the other side to see the real scenery!
It turned out that she had always been referring to "them" from outside the universe, not the dead of the final catastrophe, and not the disasters entrenched in the sea of stars.
She wanted him to continue to become stronger. She even did not hesitate to use the gimmick of resurrecting Ming Xu to force him to take that step and go to the Eternal Land.
She wanted him to have the strength to transcend and break away from the fate of an ordinary person.
She said that she had always done a lot for him, and it was not just for show.
"They did not tell me everything because they felt that if they could not survive the final catastrophe, then knowing the crueler truth would only make them more desperate." Li Xiang secretly sighed in his heart. He felt that he should find time to have a good talk with his mother.
"No matter how you look at it, you cannot overcome the difficulties in front of you. Give up, I don't want to see a second him." Lan Yueji looked at him tenderly, as if she was looking for someone's shadow. In the end, she sighed and no longer tried to persuade him.
Because in Li Xiang's eyes, she only saw perseverance, persistence, and not giving up.
"What's the matter with you? From what you said just now, you did not seem to classify yourself as a dead person. Are you different from the Patriarch of the Holy Synod? "Li Xiang asked the last question.
Lan Yueji nodded slightly.
Her situation could be said to be complicated, but it could also be said to be simple.
She did not have the smell of decay, nor did she have the strange holy light, because she was still a human, not a dead person who had come back from the dead.
This sounded very fantastical, but it was the truth.
When the catastrophe came, the Holy Synod collapsed, and everyone was annihilated by history, including the high and mighty Patriarch of the Holy Synod.
But there was one person who received a different fate from the endless cycle of reincarnation.
Only she, the fiancée of the Patriarch of the Holy Synod, Lan Yueji, survived the catastrophe and lived on this peak until now.
"His sword not only isolated the enemy and his own people, but also tore apart time, space, and all the laws. You should be able to perceive that there is nothing here. It seems to be an abandoned place." Lan Yueji floated back to the broken walls in the rear. There were still traces of the war in the past, but there was no sign of people.
The monks who had rushed down the peak came from the other side of the peak. That place was built on a strategic position and had recovered with the descent of the Divine Kingdom. It was the real gathering place of the dead, but it was completely isolated from this place.
Only this place was abandoned.
One sword cut through the ages, one sword cut off time and space, one sword sealed the laws!
Li Xiang's heart trembled slightly. The strength of the Patriarch of the Holy Synod was beyond his imagination. This understanding of the laws of time and space and the universe was worthy of being at the peak of Level 10. He did not know if his Polar night player state could achieve a similar effect with a sword.
Maybe, but it would inevitably exhaust his soul power. The recovery time of soul power was extremely long, which was equivalent to wasting half of his soul power.
He could imagine that at the last moment of the apocalypse, when the disaster was irreversible, the world was about to be shattered, and the restart was imminent. The Patriarch of the Holy Synod, who was still fighting alone, finally came here and used his last sword to seek a glimmer of life for his beloved.
But whether this immortality was a gift or a curse to her, it was hard to say.
"I can't leave here. The power of time will instantly erode my body and turn me into nothingness. I absolutely can't have too much contact with the dead. Their strange aura will also contaminate me." Lan Yueji did not wait for him to speak and answered the rest of the questions. "As you can see, from the end of the war until now, I've been here, living alone. You are the first person to see my complete dance and successfully come here. Perhaps this is my destiny."
Li Xiang could see that she was already too tired. A person who could endure loneliness for several eras had long reached the physical limit. It was a miracle that she did not go crazy or turn into a monster. It was difficult for her to continue.
Now, because of the communication, she felt human again. But soon, this feeling would be lost.
Only when she reached the Saint Realm would she be able to leave this place and pursue a different fate. However, after several eras, she was still stuck at Level-9 despite her continuous cultivation. She was still unable to take the most crucial step. She had tried countless methods, but in the end, she failed without exception.
Like most people who were trapped above Level-9, she could not find a way to cultivate her soul power. Her body and spirit were at their limits, but she could not enter the Spiritual World.
Other than Bai Lili and Lancelot, who were in special circumstances, only Li Xiang and Bai Shili had succeeded. Li Xiang had used a trick, or else he would have had to wait at least ten more years. Bai Shili was a genius. He had spent almost a lifetime on his own path, and it was almost impossible to replicate.
Every Level-10 path had its own destiny, and it could not be replicated.
"Kill me." This was Lan Yueji's last request. She was really too tired.
Li Xiang smiled faintly. He put away the Infernal Paradise and Eternal Purgatory and strode out of the peak.
"I think you can wait a little longer. Since you've waited for several eras, why not try waiting a little longer? I think my destiny is quite worthy of your observation. By the way, you think your destiny is to wait for me today, but I don't think so. You're not waiting for me. "
"Not you? Could it be that someone else can come here? No, that's impossible. It's too difficult to reach the Saint Realm. Someone as young as you and as imaginative as him is hard to find. For too many eras, I … "
"You're not waiting for me, nor is it anyone else."
"You're waiting for him. So before he comes, don't die. "
