180: Unscrupulous
Wizard Will appeared.
He stood above various Divine Marvel laws.
He looked at you uninvited guests with an expressionless face.
Especially you!
Wizard Will's eyes were filled with killing intent.
His unparalleled experimental material, the dao heart tree seed of the supreme Celestial Net existence, had left him at this very moment.
He hadn't even finished studying it!
Originally, Will thought this time, it would be some short-sighted weak gods coming to deliver materials.
Unexpectedly, he had been hiding in one place all this time precisely to avoid the fated owner of this dao heart dao seed, yet it still inevitably left his hands.
"Three things!" Will suppressed his killing intent and uttered three words with an expressionless face.
He was already very impatient and seemed to have no intention of explaining anything to you.
Perhaps, he wanted you to inadvertently reveal the three things, then he would perfectly complete them, finally kill you, and claim the dao heart dao seed for himself.
Unfortunately, Wizard Will's plan ultimately failed.
Through the dao heart dao seed, you had already understood the whole story.
You chuckled bluntly, "Heh, Tree Ancestor, is this how he wants you to help me complete the three things? So many little schemes!"
"...You actually know?!" After a moment of silence, Wizard Will was somewhat surprised, revealing an inquisitive look, yet he was very eager to know the truth.
"This isn't the complete you, is it?" You answered evasively.
You wanted to know the secrets of this Great Thousand World.
"That's right, my main body is currently besieged by the Lord of Gods and Demons and the Lord of Gravity.
To avoid delaying my research progress, I split off a clone, hiding here to conduct research.
The Lord of Gods and Demons thought I was some hidden trump card of the main body, so he gathered the Plane Cores of the twelve continents to seal me." Will replied calmly, completely unconcerned about his predicament.
"...Do you need my help?" You thought for a moment, somewhat disbelieving Will's account of his situation, and asked tentatively.
"No need, I'm not very interested in the mutually opposing Dao of Gods and Demons, nor the authority of the Dao of Gravity.
But I am quite curious about the special state of the two of them achieving a half-Dao through joint cultivation.
Although some mediocre talents cannot transcend and ascend to the Celestial Net.
There are still some powerful Dao Realm existences that use a half-Dao as a springboard to prove their Dao and transcend.
Being suppressed by them was intentional on my part; they want to refine me, but I also want to absorb everything they possess!
Seek knowledge, analyze, research, achieve talent, achieve marvel, and finally achieve Dao!" During the conversation, Will inadvertently revealed a hint of madness for knowledge.
"Who is the Lord of Gravity?" You pressed for details, taking an inch after being given an inch.
"The master of another Great Thousand World. I've almost slaughtered all the gods above the God Realm in that Great Thousand World. Two-thirds of the gains you've made along the way were left behind by the gods of his world.
However, I had some involvement with the authority of the Dao of Gravity, so I didn't take him as an experimental subject.
Who knew he would pursue the traces I left behind and come to this Great Thousand World.
In this Great Thousand World, all paths to the God Realm for both gods and demons are shackled by the Lord of Gods and Demons.
The God Realm beings within are pitifully weak; after capturing and studying a few, I lost interest in them.
However, in the end, the Lord of Gods and Demons noticed my anomalous existence.
He wanted to possess and assimilate me, but failing to possess me, he instead expelled me.
This ultimately led to the Lord of Gravity arriving and joining forces with him, intending to refine me. I then went with the flow, drawing a circle to imprison myself, and began studying the two half-Dao existences.
It's just that they are unaware of it." Wizard Will had no intention of letting you ask more questions.
Instead, he brought up another matter that he believed posed a hidden danger to you, attempting to make you seek his help and complete the first of the three tasks.
Will cast a meaningful glance at the several gods and god-kings who were already kneeling on the ground, trembling.
They were terrified, wanting to faint but unable to.
Their sanity hovered on the brink of suffocation.
They remembered everything.
Those memories, altered by the Lord of Gods and Demons, forgotten and blurred, returned to their minds.
Scene after scene, the terrifying Wizard Will leisurely stepping upon the Divine Kingdoms.
Whether it was a god-king or a god-lord, under his terrifying gaze, they stiffened on the spot, unable to move.
That ruthless person seemed to want to thoroughly analyze everything about them, dissecting them on the spot!
Finally, this ruthless person seemed greatly disappointed and left.
Many gods' divinity collapsed, and they lost their minds.
Eventually, the Lord of Gods and Demons descended, erased their memories of Wizard Will, and replaced them with other, automatically generated memories.
Only then did the Divine Kingdoms avoid collapse.
Now, the dead memories, the originally altered memories, all returned.
Only then did they suddenly realize how deep the waters of this world truly were.
These gods of theirs were like frogs at the bottom of a well, ignorant and useless.
Wizard Will ignored these gods he looked down upon, and instead said to you, "This Great Thousand World has already been integrated by the Lord of Gods and Demons!
Whether gods or demons, or the so-called heroes and demon kings, all are merely manifestations of authority cultivated by the Lord of Gods and Demons.
Regardless of god or demon, as long as they become a God Realm being, they are natural vessels for the Lord of Gods and Demons to descend upon; he can possess them at will!
This Great Thousand World has long been played out by the Lord of Gods and Demons; latecomers have almost no chance of transcendence.
However... you are different!
I truly want to thoroughly study you, to know why the Tree Ancestor would bestow this dao heart dao seed upon you... So, do you need me to act and help you resolve the potential danger of the Lord of Gods and Demons descending?"
"Are you saying... all gods and demons... are basically beyond salvation?" You pondered, as if realizing something.
Wizard Will nodded, indicating that if he were allowed to research, he could easily eliminate it.
Subsequently, you inquired whether he could withstand the backlash from the Lord of Gods and Demons and the Lord of Gravity, and for how long.
Wizard Will was clearly a bit bored now.
Without the dao heart dao seed to research, this clone of his found it difficult to settle down.
So he urgently wanted to fulfill the three promises made to the Tree Ancestor.
As for your question about whether he could withstand the backlash and for how long?
Don't be ridiculous.
If Will hadn't wanted to further develop his Dao of Knowledge, to make himself more comprehensive and smooth in the Luotian Dao Realm, he could already attempt to prove his Dao Fruit now!
It could be said that although Wizard Will did not possess the power of a half-Dao.
He possessed the power to prove his Dao!
If he were to manifest his Dao Realm, what Lord of Gods and Demons, what Lord of Gravity, all would die.
After learning about Wizard Will's general strength.
You had some ideas.
And under his long-awaited expression.
You had him perform the first task you requested.
That was, to resist the Lord of Gods and Demons and the Lord of Gravity, existences of that level, from interfering with The Great Thousand World of Gods and Demons for a hundred years.
To prevent them from attacking you in a bullying manner.
At your current deified level, you were not yet their match.
But you were confident that within a hundred years, you would catch up to their realm.
You had ample confidence, and the source of that confidence was the talent bestowed by the double golden legend.
Your original Indestructible Body of Slaughter was already overpowered enough.
But the dao heart dao seed, the advanced mode of the former golden talent, the dao heart tree seed.
It was even comparable to the Origin Unique Talent.
You didn't think you would be much worse than the Tree Ancestor, that lazy fellow who achieved Dao!
A hundred years was enough time for you to go on a killing spree.
Since the gods and demons were already beyond salvation, you had no more qualms.
Killing them and having them become embodiments of killing intent in your Demon Slaughter Heaven was also a kind of destination.
At the very least, if you were in a good mood, you could even let them retain a bit of sanity, instead of ultimately facing the fate of being possessed.
Theoretically, as long as you didn't die, they could even achieve a different kind of eternal life... it was essentially a fantastical 'Human Emperor Banner'...
