Chapter 238: Xu Le the Old Immortal
The fiery meteor in the sky disappeared in an instant, leaving the king completely bewildered. Wasn't he supposed to destroy the world and usher in the apocalypse?
Where did they go?
The king rubbed his eyes and searched carefully in the night sky, but it was pitch black and there was nothing there.
Pitch black!
The king noticed something different. With the powerful soul brought about by his rebirth, his eyes had a stronger ability to capture dynamics than ordinary people. He vaguely saw that the darkness had a slight outline and moved slightly.
Da da da!
The sound of burning sparks reached his ears through the air, and the darkness began to move, slowly revealing its form. The dark clouds drifted away, and the bright moonlight shone down.
It was a gigantic dark hand!
Having experienced the end times and matured over the years, the king possessed an extremely resilient mind, but upon seeing this scene, he couldn't help but gasp softly, then quickly covered his mouth and clenched his teeth tightly.
He strained to open his eyes wide and finally saw flames in that giant hand. The meteor that had caused the apocalypse had been so easily captured, and his boastful words seemed somewhat ridiculous.
What kind of world is this?
The question popped into the king's mind. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the giant hand seemed to have stopped, as if it had been stared at by a prehistoric beast. He felt a chill run down his spine and his body trembled uncontrollably.
A white streak of light flashed through the center of the giant hand, soaring through space and arriving before the king in the blink of an eye, enveloping him in his terrified gaze.
Am I not dead?
The king felt himself in a warm and gentle environment, bathed in soft white light. His mind was filled with a wealth of knowledge: the war of gods, the seven people, wishes, and among them, a cultivation technique—the indestructible golden body.
This is a body-strengthening technique with nine levels, but he only has three levels in his current memory. The rest of the content seems to be shrouded in a fog, and he can't see what it looks like.
While the king was greedily absorbing knowledge, Xu Le stood behind him and, with a sweep of his divine sense, discovered the pendant around his neck. With a wave of his right hand, an identical pendant appeared in his hand.
The pendant around the king's neck seemed to sense the danger, emitting a soft light that entered the king's body, as if trying to warn him. However, the king, immersed in absorbing knowledge, was completely unaware of it. The mysterious white light repelled its light and instead entered the king's body, bidding him farewell and turning on a switch within his body.
Xu Le held the pendant in his hand, feeling the powerful force contained within it, and then disappeared from the spot.
Whenever a protagonist loses their cheat ability, Grandpa Xu Le appears and asks, "Which martial arts manual did you lose? Was it this Blood Robe Manual? Or this Forgiveness Divine Art? Or this Indestructible Golden Body Manual?"
"What I lost was a monster-slaying and leveling-up system!"
Snap!
The protagonist is dead!
After Xu Le left, the speed at which the white light transmitted knowledge increased, then slowly contracted and disappeared. The king's expression was somewhat strange. He realized that this world was different from what he had experienced before, and he also learned the identity of the giant hand from earlier.
god!
There are gods in this world. They also held a game that granted power to seven people, and the winner would get to make a wish.
Thump!
With a slight sway of his body, the familiar cracking sound of bones echoed within him. A look of surprise appeared on the king's face. He sensed it with practiced ease and indeed detected his superpower: physical amplification.
Although he didn't know why he had gained superpowers even though the apocalypse hadn't started, he assumed it was something he had brought back from his rebirth. However, he felt a strange sense of loss, as if he had lost something very important to him. But he quickly dismissed this feeling as a delusion.
………………
Within the inner world, above the azure sky, a huge, strangely textured gray-brown stone was firmly bound by several barriers. It seemed to possess some kind of spirit, emitting unconscious lamentations from within the barriers.
With the help of the Heavenly Dao, Xu Le saw that a large number of hideous viruses covered the surface of the meteorite. Before it entered the world, its number only covered an area the size of a fist, but now it has occupied the surface of the meteorite the size of a basketball court.
If this weren't Xu Le's inner world, where the Heavenly Dao consciousness had taken over the world's authority and was constantly monitoring every potentially dangerous item, this world might have fallen as well.
Even so, within a minute of its entry, a large number of viruses rapidly multiplied, only to be trapped by an invisible barrier and isolated from the outside world. Although they were highly infectious and had a strong ability to reproduce, they were not much different from ordinary viruses and had no offensive power before parasitizing.
Xu Le walked to the edge of the meteorite to observe it. According to the initial detection by the Heavenly Dao, these viruses were afraid of fire, so they did not scatter during the descent and were all hidden inside the rock. After the surface temperature dropped, they sensed the temperature change and crawled out to feed on the air and reproduce.
They seem to rely on some element in the air to reproduce, so once the air in the isolated space is used up, their reproduction stops, they retract their ferocious tentacles, and fall into a deep sleep, seemingly waiting for an opportunity.
Xu Le sneered. Although these guys were extremely dangerous, they were a great weapon for him. If a conflict broke out in a lower-level world, he could simply drop a small fragment, and the massively multiplying virus would be enough to drag the entire world into darkness. It was a great weapon against non-cultivation civilizations.
After observing for a moment, Xu Le took out the pendant he had obtained from the king.
The pendant is crescent-shaped and engraved with the image of a mythical beast. It feels similar to jade to the touch, and also somewhat like obsidian. There is no matching material in the Heavenly Dao Analysis, which leaves only two possibilities: one is that it is a material that Xu Le has not collected, which the Heavenly Dao has never seen and therefore cannot match; the other is that it is a product of other civilizations or the universe.
Several silver threads dance within the pendant; even a gentle touch of the mind can evoke the fleeting passage of time, as if time itself were an arrow, shooting forth.
Xu Le's lips curled up. In the short contact, an hour of his lifespan was lost, and the silver thread in the pendant changed from the thickness of a hair to the thickness of two hairs. Although the change was not significant, a way to increase it had been found.
Although enlightenment requires lifespan, Xu Le is no longer worried about lifespan. Not to mention that once he becomes an immortal, he will live forever as long as he is not killed. There are countless treasures in the myriad worlds that can increase lifespan. Therefore, Xu Le summoned Little Vajra to help him comprehend the power of space and time.
The silver threads inside the pendant slowly thickened and lengthened. There was a vast space inside the pendant, which originally seemed to be used to fill the spacetime energy, but now only a few silver threads remained. It should have been used up for the king's rebirth.
The most basic rudiments of the world's spacetime rules gradually emerged, but the problem of the world's weak essence became increasingly prominent.
Looks like it's time to go to that world!
