Coming to the Vientiane Crystal Wall again, Lin Xiao's mentality was very different from before.
In the past, he came as an outsider and saw the broken world and the fallen gods frozen in time. From an outsider's point of view, he only envied the countless fallen god corpses and the resources that he couldn't get. At that time, what he wanted most was to get some benefits.
Now, he came as the owner, and the whole broken world was his private property. When he saw the Children of the Divine Realm floating in the void of the broken world, he didn't feel very happy.
These fallen god corpses were all frozen in time. After tens of thousands of years, most of their divinity had disappeared. Once the balance was broken, the corpses would shatter and disappear. However, there were some powerful gods or artifacts that could resist the endless time and maintain their stability. They wouldn't disappear when the balance was broken.
Many permitted Children of the Divine Realm would wander in this broken world and look for some stable god corpses to obtain divinity and artifacts.
In the past, Lin Xiao didn't have any other thoughts other than envy. Now that everything was his, he felt inexplicably unhappy when he saw this scene again.
However, he also knew that there weren't many god corpses that could remain stable. After so many years of searching, most of them had been plundered. Now, there weren't many left.
His strength now was different from before. He couldn't close the Vientiane Crystal Wall for these things. That would bring him a stingy label.
The huge whirlpool was the same as before. Lin Xiao stood in the void above the whirlpool and sighed. Just then, a few small void ships flew from afar and stopped in front of him. Three True God Avatars flew from the ships and stopped in front of him, revealing two men and a woman. The three of them bowed to Lin Xiao together. The man in the lead said respectfully,
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency. We're students from the Golden Sun High School Alliance. We're going to the Vientiane Temple to participate in the 10462 Vientiane Relic Competition. Could Your Excellency make way for us?"
"Vientiane Relic Competition?"
Lin Xiao was stunned. He immediately recalled the 10457 Vientiane Relic Competition he had participated in. He couldn't help but sigh.
"Unknowingly, so much time has passed!"
He came back to his senses and smiled.
"So you're students participating in the Vientiane Relic Competition. I wish you good luck!"
Then, his figure flashed, and he turned into a streak of light, and disappeared into the vortex.
The three avatars with weak Divine Powers watched his figure disappear completely. The leader let out a sigh and said,
"I don't know where this big shot came from, but standing next to him makes my heart beat faster. He's at least a mid-tier God."
"Maybe it's a big shot from one of the top academies. Which Wanxiang Ruins Competition hasn't had any big shots? We just have to be careful not to bump into those big shots."
"How is that possible?"
The voices gradually grew softer, and as the three of them returned, the Void Warship plunged into the vortex.
When he reappeared, he was in front of the enormous Myriad Elephant Shrine. Lin Xiao didn't enter the shrine. Instead, he observed the enormous shrine from afar. The more he observed, the more extraordinary he felt this shrine was.
This didn't seem to be an ordinary divine artifact, but he couldn't tell what it was just by looking at it.
After circling around, he came back to the main gate of the shrine. Void Warships of different sizes were parked outside. Judging from the labels, they were all from different high schools. Just like the Vientiane Relic Competition he had participated in, most of them were from the affiliated high schools of the top academies. Only a few were from ordinary high schools.
He glanced around and saw a large Void Warship from Radiance. However, he didn't recognize any of the teachers or students who led the team.
He had no intention of stepping forward. Instead, he crossed the void with his hands behind his back and walked toward the center of the Myriad Elephant Palace. There, six true gods exuding the aura of great divine power surrounded a ball of blazing chaotic flames. They were the remaining six Guardians of the Myriad Elephant Divine System and the remnants of the Myriad Elephant Crystal Wall's Origin.
When he looked at the Chaotic Fireball, the unchanging bodies of the six Guardians who surrounded and guarded the Origin suddenly moved. They turned to look in Lin Xiao's direction at the same time. A voice that seemed to be made up of six voices sounded in his ears.
"I can feel the aura of His Majesty the Divine Emperor. You are the heir appointed by His Majesty the Divine Emperor!"
It wasn't a question, but an affirmative tone.
He didn't know how they could be so sure that their power didn't come from the Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor. However, he was sure that their power had a lot to do with the Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor. According to the Divine Emperor, these six Guardians were the Divine Emperor's trusted subordinates. They were also absolutely loyal and reliable servants. As long as he could gain the approval of the Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor, he would gain their absolute loyalty.
At this moment, as the Divine Emperor said, the six Guardians could tell his origin at a glance. Then …
There was no need for any tests. They immediately pledged their loyalty to him.
Most of the True Gods and students in the Vientiane Temple did not notice that the six tomb keepers had expressed their loyalty to him. Lin Xiao naturally accepted their loyalty and immediately learned of their names, origins, and clergy, as well as other comprehensive information.
The six Guardians came from a destroyed world in the Chaos Void Sea. Back then, when the Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor had just become a Primogenitor and was traveling the Chaos Void Sea, he discovered a medium-sized Crystal Wall Universe that had been destroyed by a Nightmare Dominator. He saved a humanoid tribe in that world. These six Guardians were the experts of that humanoid tribe.
Now, the humanoid race had spread out in the main world and other different crystal wall systems, and as the price for saving them, they swore in the name of Gaia's will that they would forever be loyal to the Wanxiang Godly Emperor and his successor.
This was the main reason why they continued to guard the Myriad Elephant Shrine even though the Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor had fallen. An oath made by Gaia's will couldn't be violated even by a greater Divine Power.
Lin Xiao, as the legal heir recognized by the Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor, naturally accepted their continued loyalty.
Yes, it was only limited to the six Guardians. After the Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor fell, their original oath of loyalty was no longer valid. There was no need for them to remain loyal.
After all, they weren't a top-tier race like the Dragon Race. There was no need to hold on to them.
After gaining the approval of the Guardians, the next step was naturally to gradually take over everything in the Myriad Elephant Shrine.
The Myriad Elephant Ruins Tournament was about to begin. None of the students had entered the venue yet, but Lin Xiao had already entered the Hero Continent.
In fact, it was the Myriad Elephant Space inside the Myriad Elephant Shrine. The Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor's divine power had brought a plane into the shrine. Through the Myriad Elephant Authority, he could transform this plane. He could use his divine power to continuously change the terrain and rules of the plane. Therefore, the map and rules of the Myriad Elephant Ruins Tournament were different every time.
It was slightly different from Lin Xiao's year because the most valuable Vientiane Divine Treasure already had an owner. Ever since his year, the standards of the Vientiane Ruins Tournament had gradually decreased, but the scale of the tournament had increased.
In the past, only the top academies were qualified to participate. Now, some outstanding secondary schools that were not affiliated with the top academies were qualified to send students to participate.
Moreover, with the complete fall of the Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor, there was only one continent left in the Hero Continent. It would no longer leave the continent and enter other Myriad Elephant Planes like in the past. For example, the Evil Abyss Crystal Wall Universe that Lin Xiao had touched previously was no longer accessible.
With his authority, Lin Xiao entered the core of the Myriad Elephant Shrine and toured every space in the Myriad Elephant Shrine. The more he looked, the more surprised he was.
The Myriad Elephant Shrine was more powerful than he had imagined.
At first, he had thought that it was just a top-tier divine artifact, the headquarters of the Myriad Elephant Divine System.
However, after he had seen enough, he suddenly realized that the Myriad Elephant Shrine wasn't the top-tier divine artifact he had imagined. Instead, it was a super war divine artifact that the Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor had been ambitiously preparing to build. It was a super war divine artifact similar to the super war fortresses in the subspace of the main world … the prototype.
Yes, this thing was still incomplete. Only a part of it had been completed. Its power hadn't reached the level of a super war fortress. It still lacked the most crucial part.
And this crucial part was the Heavenly Moat, which could only be achieved by greater Divine Powers.
It was simple to say. It was to completely refine a powerful crystal wall universe that could give birth to greater Divine Powers and finally refine it into the Myriad Elephant Shrine. The final Myriad Elephant Shrine would be a super war fortress that could accommodate infinite living beings and could face one or two greater Divine Powers head-on.
It was simple to say, but in fact, it was very difficult. The Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor's ambition was greater than he had imagined.
If this idea could be realized, the refined Myriad Elephant Shrine wouldn't be a super war fortress in the subspace. It would be even more powerful.
This was because the Myriad Elephant Shrine didn't need to be fixed in the subspace. It could move freely and descend to other crystal wall universes.
It was equivalent to a super war fortress in the subspace being a fixed interstellar fortress. The Myriad Elephant Shrine was a mobile interstellar fortress. There was no difference in combat power, but its flexibility and mobility were many times stronger.
The Myriad Elephant Divine Emperor's original plan was to refine the Myriad Elephant Crystal Wall universe, the headquarters of the god system, into the shrine. Now, many of the planes in the shrine were originally planes of the Myriad Elephant Crystal Wall universe. But halfway through, the enemy attacked. Later on, he was seriously injured and on the verge of death. The god system collapsed, and the plan couldn't be realized.
Even if he wanted to, he couldn't do it now because the Myriad Elephant Crystal Wall system had been destroyed. It was no longer qualified to be the core of the Myriad Elephant Shrine's power.
If Lin Xiao wanted to repair it, he had to find a similarly powerful crystal wall universe that could give birth to greater Divine Powers. He had to conquer it first and then integrate it into the Myriad Elephant Shrine.
This was almost impossible at this stage. At least, it was impossible before he became a greater Divine Power.
However, although it was impossible to refine it into a super war fortress at this stage, this thing was now already a top war artifact with six great Divine Powers guarding it. After receiving the inheritance, Lin Xiao and the six tomb keepers would work together to refine this broken Vientiane Crystal Wall into it and temporarily activate it for use.
When he became a greater Divine Power in the future, he would set out to conquer a powerful world and refine it into it. He would repair and perfect this treasure into a super war artifact and become his foundation.
