Bai Lili used her God Kingdom to simulate a strange scene.
There was once a piece of land. After the army of the dead retreated, the land was devastated. The mountains and rivers were eroded, as if they were corroded by something. It was a daunting sight to behold.
In the middle was a dried up lake, deep in the heart of the land, connected to the ocean outside. It was as black as ink, silent, and some strange impurities were floating above it.
"This is the scene of the human world beginning to rebuild after the end of a certain final catastrophe." Bai Lili said solemnly while pointing at the scenery below. "This dried up and reborn lake is the endless sea of stars later. Look carefully at the floating impurities."
Li Xiang was stunned. Hearing that it was the evolution of the sea of stars, he immediately became interested. If he guessed correctly, this was the beginning of a new era after the Lord of Disaster went through the great catastrophe. Many broken creatures were stirring under the lake.
Those were the disasters that weren't completely destroyed and were lucky enough to survive. They attached themselves to this place and eventually grew into the rulers that gave humans a headache.
This was only a corner of the floating light. What Bai Lili wanted him to see was naturally not the growth process of the rulers. These big guys were terrifying, but they couldn't compare to the universe beasts that were eyeing them covetously, not to mention the group of dead creatures that descended in the end of the catastrophe.
She tapped lightly with her finger, and the floating impurities were magnified and reflected clearly in their eyes.
Li Xiang's pupils shrank.
These floating impurities seemed ordinary, but in fact, they contained one super huge and boundless world after another. These worlds were generally gray and had world laws that he was completely unfamiliar with.
As long as they were born in this universe, the ultimate laws were the same. They were created by the slumbering Lord of the Universe, Azathoth, so they should be understood.
But the worlds floating in the impurities were different. They revealed world laws that he had never heard of or seen before.
In those world fragments, he could vaguely see pairs of dark eyes looking over here. It was as if they could catch a glimpse of this scene even after a long time!
This was too heaven-defying, too terrifying.
"They are the Abyss Watchers." Bai Lili was expressionless. She used her soul power to seal off all senses before slowly explaining, "They should be the terrifying enemies outside the universe that Lan Yueji said were secretly manipulating the final catastrophe."
"Abyss Watchers? Could it be that they can sense us through the God Kingdom? " Li Xiang frowned. Bai Lili was so cautious that she even used her soul power to seal off her senses in his Pure White Divine Kingdom. It was clear how terrifying these fellows were.
"It's better to be on guard than not at all." Bai Lili smiled bitterly as she recounted her experience of accidentally coming into contact with the Abyssal Watcher. "Many people thought that I had taken the initiative to break free from the identity of the Executor of Yug Sothoth. Little did they know that I had no power to resist him at that time."
"I find it strange. Since he chose you to be the Executor, it's impossible for him to have no restrictions. It's too embarrassing to let you, a Level-9 and above, break free from the restrictions. Is there a shadow of the Abyss Watcher in this?" Li Xiang came to a sudden realization. With Yuge Sothoth's current status, Bai Lili was just a slightly larger ant, let alone the former Bai Lili. It was impossible for her to jump around in his hands.
That was one of the three Primal Pillar Gods, the supreme ruler of the eternal land. His status was second only to the universe master and higher than any other eternal being. He was almost equivalent to a part of the universe laws and wasn't restricted.
If such an existence was determined to bind a human, how could he fail?
The problem was that he did fail. He let Bai Lili out of his control and couldn't get her back.
Regarding this problem, at that time, Yuge Sothoth didn't explain much to Li Xiang. He even lied to him about Li Xiang's true identity. Naturally, he wouldn't reveal such matters that involved a higher level.
Now, Bai Lili told the truth.
It turned out that she didn't voluntarily break free from the identity of the Executor. This was impossible. Let alone the three Primal Pillar Gods, even an eternal being would be bound to the soul body as long as they identified a certain Executor. It would be difficult for them to break free for life unless the Executor became an eternal being one day.
This was the reason why Fei Yujing had always been associated with the Immemorial Eternal Being. It wasn't that she wanted to, but she couldn't get rid of it.
Ever since she received the gift from the Immemorial Eternal Being, she was bound to be the Executor. From now on, she would be equivalent to one of his eyes walking in the human world.
It was just that most eternal beings didn't have the kind of logical thinking that humans understood. They didn't have self-consciousness and did things without any signs or traces. It was impossible to define their true thoughts.
There were very few eternal beings like the Immemorial Eternal Being who were willing to take the initiative to come into contact with humans. They were simply the outliers of the outliers.
Back then, Bai Lili became the Executor of Yuge Sothoth and received a lot of authority passed down from him. For example, the omniscience and omnipotence that was most talked about by later generations.
But correspondingly, as his eye, Bai Lili couldn't separate herself from her own existence. She had to pay attention to this at all times. She might even become the carrier of his consciousness projection.
Of course, if Yuge Sothoth really did that, Bai Lili would no longer exist in this world.
Even if she was at level 10, she definitely couldn't bear the consciousness projection of the three Primal Pillar Gods. This was a difference in status and realm that was difficult to overcome.
Therefore, Ming Xu was able to bear the divinity of the Mother Goddess at that time. It was even possible for her to forcibly descend into the human world and cause great turmoil. This also proved that she was originally one with him.
The same principle applied to Li Xiang.
"That time, when I was hunting a dominator, I suddenly fell into a predicament. At the moment of desperation, I heard another different voice from the bottom of my heart. She guided me out of the predicament and defeated the dominator. Since then, I have had a vague connection with that voice."
Bai Lili still had lingering fears when she talked about this. Obviously, things weren't as simple as she described.
At the most desperate moment, a voice responded to her from the bottom of her heart and helped her out of the predicament. It was very easy to get a good impression of her.
But this was just the beginning of the nightmare.
"With our level of cultivation, we can't completely explore ourselves. That voice was exactly the same as my own voice. It sounded from the bottom of my heart, responding to me and helping me out of the predicament. She said that she was me, but I vaguely knew that this wasn't me. "
As a practical person, Bai Lili wanted to find the source of that voice. To be able to silently parasitize her heart, this power was more terrifying than Yuge Sothoth.
After all, the latter could only affect her indirectly. The initiative was still in Bai Lili's hands.
But in the face of that voice, everything she had cultivated didn't make use of space. That voice came from the bottom of her heart. Should she dig out her own heart to take a look?
She existed and would always appear at the right time. Her words were always impeccable and full of temptation. She was secretly guiding Bai Lili's own body.
But she lived up to her name as the strongest person in the Seven Continents. Her level of perseverance was far beyond anyone's imagination. She immediately used the method of soul separation to hide a trace of her own soul in the Pure White Divine Kingdom. Then, she often compared this trace of soul with her own body.
Then, something shocking happened.
She watched as she became more and more different from before. She was gradually assimilated by that voice. But her original body, who was very vigilant and on guard against this, was unaware.
If it weren't for this extra trace of soul, Bai Lili would never have known that her original body was quietly being assimilated. At that time, would she still be herself?
This period happened to be the day of the birth of the evil leader.
She wanted to continue the continuation of human civilization. After learning about the final catastrophe, she fell into helplessness and madness. Then, as her thoughts of creating a new world grew stronger, she was invaded by that voice.
"Life is unpredictable. When my brother chopped off my head with his own hands, I was still shocked. I didn't understand at all why my brother, who had always been willing to support me and stand behind me, would be the first to betray me!"
Speaking of this, Bai Lili sighed. She revealed a corner of dusty history that no one knew.
From leaving the Eternal Land to the appearance of the evil leader, to Bai Shili gathering everyone to assist the Emperor Tribe in killing Bai Lili, it had only been a few years, but the Seven Continents had undergone tremendous changes.
Those who killed Bai Lili with Bai Shili were mostly traitors who joined forces with the Emperor Tribe. However, Bai Lili didn't resent them too much.
After her resurrection, not only did she look down on her relationship with Lancelot, but she also looked down on this hatred.
Now, Li Xiang finally understood.
It was not that she had gotten over it, but this had been a hunt for that voice from the beginning to the end!
"Lancelot died in the Eternal Land and turned into a disaster. After the mutation, I'm not sure if there's a similar situation in his body. Back then, I thought it was some terrifying parasitic creature. They might've chosen the strongest among humans. Naturally, Lancelot and I were the first to bear the brunt."
Bai Lili explained the reason why she began to distance herself from Lancelot.
She was afraid that the man she loved deeply would be like her, falling deep into it and unable to extricate himself.
However, she could not ask. In order not to alert the enemy, she could only pretend not to know and deliberately distance herself from him with betrayal.
Bai Shili was the only one who knew the whole thing from the beginning to the end.
He was the first person who treated his body as a seed. Many years ago, he had expelled the countless impurities in his body. Moreover, Bai Lili had always thought that this brother of hers was the most reliable and flawless.
After learning about the unknown mutation in Bai Lili's body, Bai Shili secretly planned a hunting plan.
He wanted to kill Bai Lili before she completely mutated. He wanted to dismember her body and make it look like they had different ideologies. He wanted to hide the existence of the Abyssal Watcher and take the opportunity to deceive the Abyssal Watcher.
There was no doubt that their plan was a great success.
This hunting plan seemed simple, but in fact, it was closely linked. Back then, there could not be any mistakes in any of the details, and they could not let the Abyssal Watcher in Bai Lili's body notice.
This was because they did not know how many people were in a similar situation. They only knew that this creature was extremely terrifying. It seemed to be born from the human heart, but in fact, it was a parasitic creature that could silently replace its original owner.
"The most ingenious part of this plan was the cooperation between my brother and I. We never met or planned anything. I only hinted to him about the abnormality in my body very subtly. After he understood immediately, he came up with a hunting plan. Our minds were connected, and in the end, our cooperation was seamless."
Bai Lili smiled sweetly.
"This hid from everyone, including you. You all thought that you had already uncovered the so-called truth, but you didn't know that the truth was just the tip of the iceberg. There's still a huge secret hidden underneath. "
This was indeed impressive.
At that time, one of them was a Level-9 being possessed by the Abyssal Watcher until he was almost unable to control himself, while the other was a Level-9 genius who was famous on the continent and was respected by countless people. He was the Level-9 genius who was the best at planning before taking action.
They worked together to trap the Abyssal Watcher.
It had even successfully helped Fei Yujing break free from Yuge Sothoth's restraints, but it failed at the last moment.
It turned out that there was such a huge secret hidden behind her death.
From Bai Shili's meticulous care for Ye Tong and his cooperation with the resurrected Bai Lili, who had returned without even looking back, it could be seen that the brother and sister had a deep relationship in the past.
Why would such a loyal man be so cruel as to kill his own sister, just because of a difference in ideology?
So this was the reason!
"It's a pity that we couldn't capture the Abyssal Watcher. It was too cunning. Once it discovered the problem, it abandoned my physical body and directly escaped to the outside of the universe." Bai Lili sighed and looked at the former Galaxy Lake, which was covered with world fragments and the flashing Abyssal Watcher. Her gaze was uncertain.
Li Xiang's scalp instantly went numb.
How many powerful foreign enemies were spying on the human world?
To be able to impersonate a person, bewitch their consciousness, and parasitize them unknowingly, this was too terrifying.
"We also found some clues from many destroyed eras." Bai Lili waved her hand, and the scene changed. It was an era that had once prospered and then been destroyed.
Li Xiang recognized most of the original masters of the Seven Divine Kingdoms at a glance.
They used to be so high-spirited, but later on, they fell in the final catastrophe and failed to lead humanity to successfully overcome this obstacle.
"The name Abyssal Watcher came from the Lord of Disaster. I have to say, his research on the enemy was beyond everyone's imagination. He had indeed lost, lost completely. Even the brand-new race he created became the mortal enemy of humanity in the long years and was enslaved."
Bai Lili sighed. Speaking of this sage, she was also very emotional.
"But I have to admit, his research on the enemy was really amazing! To be able to realize the problem of the multiverse and guess' them 'in that era without even coming into contact with an Eternal existence, it was simply terrifying! Not only that, the Lord of Disaster even tried to let the Abyssal Watcher invade, so that he could grasp their characteristics and create Disaster! "
So the source of Disaster was the Abyssal Watcher!
These Cthulhu creatures were created. They were imitations, and their original forms …
"The Lord of Disaster called all the places outside the universe the Abyss. Those watchers lived there, watching over the various universes and waiting for an opportunity to act."
"So I highly suspect that the human world, as the 'door' to the multiverse, was permanently closed not by chance, but by someone to prevent this universe from being corrupted!"
