Chapter 1696 – Cutting away from the Forbidden Ruins
”Count me in!” Zhan Yuwu followed closely behind Huo Zaiwei, taking the chess pieces from Lin Qiye’s hands and grinning, “Wherever the Marquis goes, I’ll go.”
”Tsk, just your hands are fast.” Yan Zhong was clearly right behind Lin Qiye, but he didn’t manage to grab Zhan Yuwu, glaring at him fiercely, he also took over a white chess piece, “What, are you trying to show that you’re more loyal to the Marquis than me?”
”I’m doing this for the people of the world!”
Just as Yan Zhong and Zhan Yuwu were arguing, Wu Quan silently stepped forward and took a chess piece.
He hesitated for a moment, but still asked, “Brother Seven Nights, will Brother Qingzhu …… also receive this kind of chess piece in the future?”
”Of course, he’s Shen Qingzhu.” Lin Qiye laughed.
Wu Quan nodded and silently clenched the chess piece in his hand, “I will protect him.”
”This first move, I made it, it seems like I can’t avoid it no matter what.” Chloe shrugged helplessly, “Take one for me as well.”
Hu Jia walked over to Lin Qiye and took a white seed with both hands, saying solemnly:
”Lord Lin, Hu Jia will not be insulted!”
Seeing that everyone was taking pieces, Jia Lan blinked and also stood up, touching towards that last white piece in Lin Qiye’s palm.
Before her fingertips could touch Lin Qiye, the hand retracted.
Jia Lan froze, then glared at Lin Qiye and asked with her arms crossed: ”Lin Qiye, what do you mean? I’m not worthy of working for the people of the world?”
”You’re not in a hurry yet.” Lin Qiye immediately comforted, “The Immortality Dan in your body, you can’t hide it with this alone, so why don’t you leave it for someone more in need ……”
As the words fell, Lin Qiye’s gaze landed on Gongyang Wan in the corner.
Noticing Lin Qiye looking at himself, Gongyang Wan frowned:
”Why would I want to join you and fight for all beings? Even if I don’t use the [His Heart Tour], I can still live forever.”
”Don’t you want your brother to be reborn?”
Upon hearing these words, Gong Yang Wan’s pupils suddenly contracted as she stared at Lin Qiye dead in the face, her breathing ragged.
”What do you mean?”
”What I mean is that even though you swallowed Rams Humble alive, his consciousness is still residual in your mind, isn’t it? As long as it’s not completely dead, how do you know that there’s no hope of resurrection in the future?” Lin Qiye pointed at Hu Jia.
”Not to mention anything else, Hu Jia’s [His Mind Tour], specializes in the spirit world, so as long as he makes a move, perhaps he can separate your brother’s consciousness, from your body? In that case, as long as you find a way to redirect his consciousness into a new physical body, it may not be impossible to be reborn.”
Gongyang Wan’s body trembled, she opened her mouth but didn’t say anything, so she rushed straight to Lin Qiye and snatched away the last white piece!
”Good, I’ll believe you this time!” Gong Yang Wan’s lips pursed slightly, her eyes a little red, “If you can save my brother …… let me do anything!”
Huo Zaiwei’s gaze falls on Gongyang Wan, seemingly a bit puzzled.
”In this way, our squad is considered to be initially formed.” Lin Qiye’s gaze swept over the crowd and took a deep breath, “Next, there’s a crucial issue ……”
”What?”
”Playing this chess game …… I’m not qualified.”
The crowd was stunned, “???”
”What I mean is that the one playing against us is an Extraterrestrial Supreme Deity with an omniscient and omnivision perspective …… He can look at the long river of history, has the Gate of Truth at his back, and possesses nearly endless arithmetic and logical deduction abilities.
Even if I can change cause and effect and hide myself, it’s impossible to wrench Him with just that. I’m just a flesh and blood body, I can’t accurately deduce the direction of all the causes and effects of the continuation of two thousand years……. This kind of load can’t be borne by the human brain.
I need a ‘brain’ that can also control cause and effect, and can accurately place each piece where it belongs, a ‘supercomputer’ that can perfectly conceal all traces of cause and effect, and keep up with the arithmetic power of the [Key of the Gate]. ”
”A super …… whatchamacallit?” Garland licked his lips.
”It’s also true that you yourself can’t be tainted with karma, and you want to manipulate this chess game that runs through two thousand years of history …… It’s simply impossible.” Yan Zhong was the only guy who could keep up with Lin Qiye’s thoughts.
”Then what should we do? Where should I find this kind of smart person?” Zhan Yuwu was at a loss.
”There’s no need to look.”
Lin Qiye slowly raised his hands, and in his field of vision, two clusters of light extending with dense threads appeared between his palms, “The only thing that can fight against ‘rules’ is ‘rules’… …Karma possesses the ability to self-correct, and they are my best stand-ins.”
Lin Qiye turned his head to look at Hu Jia, “Hu Jia, you said that you could chop down one of these abilities for me, right?”
”Right.”
Lin Qiye took a deep breath and handed his right hand, which carried the [Established Fruit], to Hu Jia.
”Help me, chop it off.”
”Lord Lin, have you thought about it?”
”The twin children of cause and effect, the current me can’t carry them either, since I’m destined to temporarily cut one off, now is the best time to do so……. Cause and effect are inherently connected, even if you chop off the [Established Fruit], I can still use the [Unprovoked Cause] to establish a connection with it.
In this way, not only can I solve the problem of my spirit not being able to carry it, but I can also obtain a super brain that has the power to act on its own, and is able to correct cause and effect and deduce the future for us, which is the best choice.
I am in charge of the [Unprovoked Cause] to create the ‘chess pieces’; the other me born from the [Established Fruit], relying on my huge arithmetic power and absolutely calm brain, to be the chess player.
He and I, each responsible for half of the chess game, so as to have a chance of winning.”
Seeing that Lin Qiye was so insistent, Hu Jia didn’t try to persuade him any further, he immediately pulled out the stone ocarina on his waist and gently blew it.
Lin Qiye relaxed his spirit and allowed Hu Jia to enter his spiritual world, and in the next moment, a huge sword shadow ran through the sky, directly cutting the sun on the right side!
A sharp pain surged through Lin Qiye’s mind as he bent over in agony, the pain of the forbidden ruins being forcibly stripped away caused him to nearly suffocate, and at the same time, the ball of light in his right hand gradually broke away from his palm’s grasp.
Right at this moment, a thread of cause and effect stretched out from the [Unprovoked Cause] in Lin Qiye’s left hand and held the [Established Fruit] in place again, like a balloon full of wool.
Lin Qiye endured the excruciating pain and looked around, he had to find a new carrier for the [Established Fruit].
Soon, he took a step and walked straight towards the center of the broken temple, and with a wave of his palm, the [Established Fruit] crashed into the clay Buddha statue and disappeared into obscurity ……
”Did it work?” Huo Zaiwei asked.
”Sort of a preliminary success …… [Established Fruit] has already left the body, and needs a period of time to give birth to self-consciousness, at that time, he will become a sophisticated brain that is connected to my mind, but does not have emotional fluctuations, and when I become a god that day, I can reabsorb him back into the body. ”
Hearing this, the crowd finally breathed a sigh of relief.
”Cause and effect, both so powerful, even this Hou’s [Dominant Emperor] is far inferior.” Huo Zaiwei let out a long sigh, “Lin Qiye, since he has become an individual who is closely connected to you, and the chess player behind us …… don’t you want to give him a name?”
”A name? ……”
Lin Qiye stood up straight with difficulty, and his gaze fell on top of that clay Buddha statue.The consciousness born in the [Established Fruit], likewise, cannot be observed by the [Key to the Gate], so he must create another karmic “paradox” to hide this history, given that ……
”[The Established Fruit], that is, ‘Predestination’ ……
Let’s call him, [Predestined Buddha].”
