Episode 19: Transformation Chapter 1: Desire
Dimensional wars, Linley knew just by listening to this Death Lord’s narration that it was extremely dangerous. However, Linley still chose to go! After all, other than the Death Sovereign, no other Lord God could help him!
“Whether you agree to go or not is none of my business.” The Death Lord looked down at Linley, “Anyone who represents my side of the Underworld and makes a merit, I will certainly reward. It doesn’t matter who it is! I’m following the rules, not for you, merely telling you about this method.”
Linley took a deep breath.
“Lord God, how do I get to the dimensional battlefield?” Linley tilted his head and inquired.
The Death Lord indifferently said, “Whether it’s the Purgatory of Hell or the Nine Spectral Realms of the Underworld, there’s a spatial gate that leads directly to the dimensional battlefield. That dimensional battlefield is connected to all seven divine realms and the four supreme realms. The fastest way for you to get there now is to go to my Underworld’s Nine Specters Domain. Through the gate of space, the dimensional battlefield!”
Linley frowned.
The Nine Secrets Domain?
The book that Beirut had given that told of the geography of the Underworld didn’t introduce the Nine Secrets Domain. In fact, just the same, the geography book of Hell didn’t narrate Purgatory either.
“Lord God, I don’t know about that Nine Secrets Domain ……,” Linley couldn’t help but speak.
“Hmph.” The Death Lord waved his hand.
Instantly, a very thin, black-lighted book flew down from above until it was in front of Linley. The Death Lord looked down at Linley and spoke, “Since you have the guts to go to the dimensional battlefield, then I’m also curious to see …… whether you, Lin Lei, will kill a few commanders and come out alive, or whether you’ll be killed by some other commander and go to claim the credit!”
Linley, however, wasn’t angry in the slightest, taking over this book in and bowing slightly, “Thank you, Lord God.”
With that, Linley even flipped through the book. The book was very thin, a total of a dozen sheets, with Linley’s memory just a sweep of his gaze, for a few seconds, the contents of these dozen sheets were all memorized into his mind.
“This Nine Hells Domain, it’s still in the depths of the Underworld Sea?” Linley couldn’t help but raise his head to look at the Death Lord.
It was too far away!
In order to go to the Nine Spectral Regions, one would first have to travel completely to the end of the Underworld Continent, and then enter the Underworld Sea. One would then have to reach the distant depths of the Underworld Sea before arriving at the Nine Specters Domain. If one rushed there in a metal life, it was estimated that it would take two to three hundred years. This consumes too much time, and …… assuming that one has just arrived and that the war on that plane is all over, that would be unacceptable to one.
“Lord God, how long does this dimensional war last?” Linley even asked.
The Death Lord indifferently said, “Every dimensional war lasts for a full thousand years! This dimensional war between the Light God Realm and the Dark God Realm has been going on for nearly a hundred years. There are still nine hundred years left. You have plenty of time to get over there!”
Sufficient?
There was enough time for the war, and Linley didn’t want to waste too much time. The longer the time, the higher the likelihood of his father and brothers dying. And the longer it took, the weaker commanders in the dimensional war would probably have died earlier, waiting for themselves to pass. I’m afraid that most of the living commanders are extremely strong.
Beirut, Dennington, Reshjing, Mursi ……
Linley’s mind conjured up the figures of these people!
“Lord God, then Bebe and I will depart now.” Linley bowed.
Bebe could only hold back her dissatisfaction as well. He bowed.
“Go.” The Death Lord said indifferently, “But I suggest that it would be best for you to be in the Nine Specters Domain and become a Nine Specters Lord first. That will be very helpful for you to enter the dimensional battlefield. Arthas, go lead the way for Linley and the others and send them away from the Underworld Mountain!”
“Yes, Lord God!” Arthurs bowed.
“Become a Lord of the Nine Underworlds before entering the dimensional battlefield?” Linley, however, was somewhat puzzled.
However, Linley didn’t ask much, so he and Bebe eyed Boreal Ray before directly striding out of the Lord God’s palace. Led by Arthas, they flew away from the opening.
“Master, that Linley seems very confident. It seems like he doesn’t know much about dimensional wars.” At this moment, Silver Serpent Yin Na Wei was all smiles and happy. Yin Na Wei understood the cruelty of dimensional wars very well, commander level characters fighting each other, and it was a war! Not one-on-one!
Sometimes, it was also possible for several commanders from the same side to besiege one of the enemy!
“Thank you, Lord God.” Silver Serpent Yinnawe smiled and bowed. She thought that the Death Lord had arranged it this way. It was also letting Linley and the others go to their deaths, sort of avenging her.
“Thank you, Lord God.” That golden serpent and the nine children all bowed in gratitude as the Death Lord indifferently looked out of the corner of his eye, “Alright. You guys retreat first. Burrelay!”
Immediately, Burrelay’s eyes lit up and he even walked to the center of the great hall, the Death Sovereign was finally going to let him become a Lord God’s Messenger.
“Linley, before you leave, I have to tell you.” Arthas solemnly said, “I’m afraid you’re not aware that the Lord Gods have an agreement to bestow upon their emissaries, or children, a maximum of one Lord God artifact! Regardless of which Main God emissary, a maximum of one Main God artifact is bestowed.”
“One?” Bebe frowned.
Linley was stunned, “One piece?”
Yes, indeed!
Such as that Green Dragon Clan Chief, Gaius Reyson, only had a Soul Defense Master God Artifact. Such as Grand Elder Gaia, who also only had defensive master divine artifacts that were integrated into her scale armor, both had only one. With the Lord God Green Dragon’s concern for his children, why would he give his children only one? Now Linley understood somewhat.
“Because the Lord God doesn’t want, either, for there to be too much of an imbalance amongst the Elder Gods.” Arthurs continued, “Suppose, for example, an upper god, who possesses a defense main divine artifact that is integrated into his body, and a soul defense main divine artifact, and then an attack main divine artifact, would you say that …… such an upper god, even if he is weak in his own comprehension, would he be terrifying or not?”
Linley was stunned.
Material Defense, Soul Defense were all Master God artifacts, and there was also an Attack Master God artifact! Such a character was indeed perverse!
“Then he’s invincible.” Bebe muttered.
“Peak powerhouses that have a Main Divine Artifact will also want another Main Divine Artifact! But it’s impossible for the Lord God to bestow it without authorization. And killing the main god messenger to seize the main divine artifact, even if it can be killed, that main divine artifact …… main god will not lower its status to retaliate though. But it will also take back the main divine artifact!” Arthurs said.
“What, and retract it?” Bebe’s eyes widened.
Linley was also surprised.
But it was normal.
The Lord God had worked hard to refine a master god artifact and give it to his emissary. Even if the messenger was killed without retaliation, how could the main divine artifact not be taken back?
“So there is only one way to get the main divine artifact again and not be obstructed by the main god, go to the dimensional war! Go and make war achievements! Kill ten commanders and you can go and claim a main divine artifact that you want. Kill twenty. Then you can claim two!” Arthurs said.
“Arthurs, what do you mean?” Linley frowned.
Arthurs said solemnly, “The stronger you are, the more you want to pursue fulfillment! Dimensional wars occur once every trillion years! Some peak powerhouses, because of their war achievements, receive a second master god artifact. They will then want a third main divine artifact. This kind of person is very strong! That’s why you must be careful and not be the least bit careless. There might be Great Perfection Upper Gods among them! After all, they have perfected their arcane comprehension, but their master divine artifacts aren’t perfect enough!” Linley’s mouth was bitter.
It was completely understandable that, assuming he had reached the Great Perfection Upper God realm. One would also have the luxury of possessing three Master God artifacts at the same time! Assuming that he was in a dimensional battlefield and encountered that kind of perverted character, he wouldn’t be able to resist at all.
“These people, they’re too greedy.” Bebe also felt terrified.
“It’s not greed. It’s desire!” Arthurs smiled blandly and said, “Having a desire and a goal is what gives you motivation! Which one that can reach the peak doesn’t have a firm goal. Without desire? Those who can traverse the dimensional battlefield are all superbly strong! True kings of killing! Although I have become the main god messenger, I have not participated in the dimensional war once. There …… is the killing ground of desire! It is the place where the strong fall! It’s also the birthplace of even stronger ones!”
Linley shook his head and smiled.
“Haha …… Arthurs, thank you for telling me this. I’m mentally prepared for it as well.” Linley chuckled.
“Don’t worry.” Bebe said, “If you want to kill our brothers, you have to see if those people are good enough! Boss and I, we’ll cast our natural aptitudes at the same time …… Hmph!”
Arthurs glanced at Linley and Bebe.
“Remember! You two aren’t the only ones who can perform gifted divine abilities. There are still quite a few unique divine beasts in the vast and countless realms. They possess divine abilities that are also terrifying. And the ones that can stand at the very top of the land all have something to fall back on.” Arthas smiled, “Well, without further ado, good luck to the two of you.” Thank you.”
Linley and Bebe immediately bid farewell to this Arthurs, then turned into two rays of light and flew away.
From the Underworld Mountain to the Nine Specters Domain. It was simply too far away. Shortly after flying away. Linley then apologized, ”Bebe, if you travel to the Nine Spectral Regions by metal life. I’m afraid it would take two to three hundred years. I don’t have time to waste, so …… I’ve decided to go all out and fly there by myself. I’ll let you fly with me as well.”
“Heh heh, flying, it’s my favorite.” Bebe understood Linley’s thoughts.
Flying on one’s own with full concentration consumed energy and would be rather tiring. Especially for long-distance flights, few people chose to fly by their bodies. It was true that one’s own flying speed was fast, bursting far beyond that of a metal being. But after all, it was too tiring. However …… Linley was in a hurry and could only choose this way.
“Snort Linley instantly dragonized.
And then running the wind laws, the entire person flew towards the south as if it were a green-colored rainbow light. If he flew with all his might, at this moment, Linley’s speed would also exceed Bebe’s, but Linley was also exerting his wind divine power to slightly help Bebe.
“Boss, did you tell my grandfather about this?” Bebe asked even as he was flying.
“My fire divine doppelganger, I’ve already gone to the Forest of Darkness to question your grandfather. We’ll have the results in a while. I don’t know what your grandfather will say either.” Linley was also a little unsure about this trip. Fortunately, the Fire God doppelganger was still on the Yulan Continent, and it was better to go and question Beirut.
A moment —-
“Your grandfather has a reply.” Linley said.
“What reply?” Bebe even asked, “He should allow us to participate in the dimensional warlands, right? It’s actually useless if he doesn’t promise, he’s not in the Underworld either.”
“Your grandfather promised.” Linley smiled, “According to your grandfather …… be careful, don’t be greedy. It also says that you, Bebe, should also go and experience the dangers, have a good realization, and the law arcana will also progress a bit.” Linley, however, remembered Beirut’s tone.
According to Beirut’s meaning ……
Men, they should go through, if they are forever afraid of danger, then it would be difficult to succeed.
“En, grandpa has done enough for me, it’s time to work hard.” Bebe skimmed his lips.
A ball of cyan rainbow light flew extremely fast in the sky of the Underworld, this kind of speed, those bandits just didn’t dare to stop it even if they saw it. If they dared to stop it, they wouldn’t be able to catch up at all.
“Wow wow vast sea water slightly rippled, endless deep cold sea, just like a man-eating beast.
This is the Underworld Sea! The area is even more vast than the Sea of Chaos in Hell, the Underworld Sea!
Steeply —-
A green light cut through the sky above the ocean and disappeared from view in the blink of an eye.
“Boss, we’re almost at the Nine Underworld Domain, right?” Bebe said. According to the speculation of the island we just saw, there’s still a while before we arrive at the Nine Specters Domain region.” Linley couldn’t help but be in a good mood, having truly flown at full power for more than thirty years, during these thirty years, Linley’s earthly essence hadn’t rested in the slightest, and fortunately, reaching his level of strength was also bearable.
And during these thirty years, Linley’s divine doppelganger had also remained in cultivation. However, in just thirty years, there hadn’t been much progress in terms of strength.
Fortunately for that Soul Defense Master God Artifact, the gaping patches that had originally been broken by that golden serpent had been repaired after thirty years, and the gaping defenses had been able to increase quite a bit.
“Boss, look, the island!” Bebe cheered in surprise.
Linley looked, and land hazily appeared in the extreme distance, “Finally arrived at the Nine Specters Domain!”
