198: Chapter 198 You're not dead?

"Fellow Daoist, are we really going to the location of that Great Golden Immortal?"

"Yes."

"If you're unwilling to go, I won't force you."

"Even if you don't come with me, I will still take you away later."

Seeing Nan Feng's hesitant look, Lin Sheng shook his head.

"Sigh, why do you say that, Fellow Daoist?"

"Since I've chosen to befriend you, your business is my business."

"So what if it's a Great Golden Immortal? It's exactly who I'm going to fight!"

Nan Feng stopped dawdling. He gritted his teeth and decided to go all in.

If something happened to Lin Sheng, he didn't know how many more years he would have to wait if he wanted to leave again.

Even if a Golden Immortal is immortal, even an Immortal Golden Immortal wouldn't want to endure hundreds of millions of years.

Nan Feng's reaction was within Lin Sheng's expectations. He knew Nan Feng didn't want him to face danger alone, but he wasn't using that to threaten him.

His words just now were from the heart.

Even if Nan Feng didn't go with Lin Sheng, Lin Sheng would still take him away.

...

The place where that Great Golden Immortal resided was not in the three dimensions of this universe; it was somewhat similar to Nan Feng's Jianmu Grotto-Heaven.

However, the location of this "Grotto-Heaven" was even deeper than the Deep Realm.

Lin Sheng and Nan Feng also put in quite a bit of effort before they found this space.

Although both of them could locate this space, it was like a game of hide-and-seek; seeing it and catching it were two different things.

However, although this space was hard to find, once found, entering it was easy.

Lin Sheng and Nan Feng stepped inside together. The space was somewhat empty, but it gave off a strong sense of Order.

Strands of the concept of "Order," almost condensed into physical form, were laid out neatly before Lin Sheng and Nan Feng. Seeing this, Nan Feng couldn't help but blurt out:

"Has that Great Golden Immortal already undergone Dao-transformation?"

It was no wonder Nan Feng was so shocked. In his understanding, "concepts" were the laws mastered by Great Golden Immortals.

For a Great Golden Immortal to lose their laws was almost impossible.

And if such a situation occurred, it either meant the Great Golden Immortal had fought someone and been destroyed...

...or it was as Nan Feng had just said: this Great Golden Immortal had undergone Dao-transformation.

In this universe, besides this Great Golden Immortal-level existence, there were no other powerhouses of the same level. Therefore, the result was obvious.

This Great Golden Immortal had undergone Dao-transformation.

Hearing Nan Feng's speculation, Lin Sheng frowned slightly.

These concepts of Order felt particularly familiar to Lin Sheng.

Just then, two eyeballs flew out of his body.

The eyeballs circled around Lin Sheng once and then flew toward a certain spot.

Seeing this, Lin Sheng quickly followed.

The eyeballs seemed to be leading Lin Sheng to the center of the space. As Lin Sheng went deeper, he found that the surrounding concepts of Order became increasingly dense.

After a short flight, the eyes stopped in front of a "cocoon" wrapped in chains of Order.

Looking at the figure inside the cocoon, Lin Sheng's brow furrowed tightly.

Seeing no danger around, he stepped forward and gently peeled away a corner of the cocoon.

Looking at the figure inside the cocoon, Lin Sheng was stunned.

The figure in the cocoon also noticed Lin Sheng at this moment. She was extremely weak, but she still gave Lin Sheng a strained smile.

"Yeros?"

"You're not dead."

Yeros in the cocoon didn't speak, but the smile remained on her face.

At this time, the two eyes began to circle and fly toward Yeros.

The eyes merged into Yeros's body, and her expression finally changed.

She looked at Lin Sheng and spoke softly:

"Thank you."

"Thank me?"

"Thank you for protecting them."

"Mhm."

Realizing that Yeros was thanking him for this, Lin Sheng nodded and accepted her gratitude.

"Are you dying?"

Just then, Lin Sheng suddenly asked.

Hearing Lin Sheng's question, Yeros smiled and shook her head.

"No."

Lin Sheng felt a sense of relief.

"I died a long time ago."

"Then what is this?"

Lin Sheng pointed at Yeros and asked in confusion.

After Yeros said she was already dead, although Lin Sheng felt bad, he accepted the fact.

"You have me in your memory, so I appeared before you."

"I am the God of Order. Even if I have died, as long as Order still exists, I still exist."

"It's just that now, I can only exist in your memory."

Yeros smiled, explaining her current state to Lin Sheng.

"God of Order?"

"The one who controls the entire concept of Order."

Lin Sheng nodded. After understanding this, his mind automatically filled in the realm above the Master God.

"Titled Deity" was the realm above the Master God.

Mastering a concept and taking a fully controlled concept as one's title makes one a Titled Deity.

A Titled Deity is an existence on the same level as a Great Golden Immortal, possessing the same immortal and indestructible characteristics.

Therefore, even if Yeros was dead, as long as the concept of Order remained and Lin Sheng or others still remembered her, she could revive at some point in the future.

By now, Lin Sheng had also guessed why the Yeros of the Outer Universe trusted him so much.

Perhaps it was much like the joke he made back then—they knew each other in the future.

The Ximi God of the Outer Universe, who is Yeros, was a strand of will split off by Yeros.

A Titled Deity already possesses uniqueness; events occurring in the future interfered with the Yeros of the Outer Universe in the past.

This was the reason why Yeros trusted Lin Sheng.

Thinking of this, Lin Sheng didn't worry about Yeros as much anymore.

At this level, it was impossible for her to truly die; at most, she would just disappear for a while.

However, Lin Sheng was also curious. With Yeros's abilities, why would she appear here?

Not only that, but to appear here and be in such a wretched state...

Lin Sheng didn't keep this question to himself; he looked at Yeros and asked directly.

Regarding Lin Sheng's question, Yeros did not hide anything.

"The universe I was in has been completely polluted. The True Gods are struggling bitterly in the mire of pollution."

"To seek a way out for mortals, I made a pact with the Source of Information."

"They took away a part of my Great Universe. They said they would use it as a nurturing ground to help me find a way to resolve the pollution."

"And what I had to do was stabilize the operation of this fragmented Great Universe for them."

"So you sacrificed everything for that illusory method they spoke of?"

"Do you know you've been tricked?"
