The Devious God
The two walked through the dimly lit passageways of the castle, surrounded by an eerie atmosphere. Faint, flickering lights shimmered on the walls, adding to the intense sense of unease.
Reincarnated as a soul, relying on his inherited memories, he skillfully led Yun Xi through the castle, turning left and right.
From the outside, the castle appears to occupy only about 2,000 square meters, but once inside, Yun Xi discovered that it had also been expanded using special spatial manipulation techniques.
If it weren't for the guidance of the Son of the God of Light, and the inability to use the Appraisal Skill on her, she would most likely have gotten lost.
They walked through winding corridors and through rooms that were ornately decorated yet exuded an air of mystery.
Yun Xi noticed that the patterns and symbols on the wall seemed to contain some profound meaning, but she couldn't figure it out for the time being.
After waiting for more than half an hour, they arrived at a huge hall.
The hall has an extremely high dome, surrounded by huge stone pillars that emit a mysterious glow.
Floating above the dome is an extremely brilliant white crystal, radiating an extremely rich aura of light.
Clearly, this is the Light Godhead.
This Light Godhead is radiating unparalleled power, connecting the surrounding stone pillars and forming a special array beneath them.
In the center of the formation, a dark figure sat cross-legged.
Yun Xi was startled, realizing that the dark figure must be the Abnormal God.
The Son of the God of Light, Hun, was very cautious and did not take Yun Xi inside, but instead gestured to Yun Xi from outside.
Yun Xi only glanced at the Abnormal God before feeling an intense sense of oppression wash over her.
The Son of the God of Light, Hun, also looked solemn. He knew that obtaining the Light Godhead was by no means easy.
"You see? I really didn't lie to you. If you want to take out the Light Godhead, you will inevitably have to release the Abnormal God."
Yun Xi opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but at that moment, the dark figure suddenly moved, and a powerful aura instantly spread out.
Despite being separated by an array, Yun Xi and the Son of the God of Light, Hun, were still forced back several steps.
"Oh no, this Abnormal God seems to be awakening."
"This seal is very special; it will block the Abnormal God's vision and shut down his senses, so the Abnormal God cannot see us," said the reincarnated soul.
However, the Abnormal God merely opened its eyes, without looking at them, yet this single glance exerted immense mental pressure on Yun Xi, and the Son of the God of Light's Soul beside it also felt uneasy.
The black light flashing in the eyes of the Abnormal God was like two sharp swords, as if it wanted to pierce straight into the depths of their souls.
Yun Xi's face turned pale, and sweat beaded on her forehead.
The Son of the God of Light was also pale, and his body trembled slightly, clearly struggling to hold on.
Yun Xi said with difficulty, "This Abnormal God's power is too terrifying."
The Son of the God of Light nodded solemnly.
The eyes of the Abnormal God are extraordinary, seemingly possessing the power to burn souls.
Of course, Yun Xi only felt the pressure and did not suffer any actual harm.
It was not only because the system protected her soul, but also because the Cosmic State Destiny Rule and the Lunar State Freedom Rule within her soul firmly resisted the mental attack from the Abnormal God.
Whether or not one can obtain the Light Godhead may have been a test given by the Lord of Light God to the God of Light Divine Child.
Removing the Light Godhead means breaking the seal and releasing the Abnormal God.
If you don't bring out the Light Godhead, you only have this one chance to enter the treasure vault; you won't be able to enter again later.
Even if they choose to extract the Light Godhead, it's still uncertain whether they can escape alive. After all, the Abnormal God is too powerful, and even with the Light Godhead protecting them, they might not be able to escape the Ghost God's pursuit.
It's easy to imagine that this Abnormal God, sealed here by the Lord of Light God, must hate the God of Light Divine Child to the core.
All of this was clear to the divided soul of the God of Light Divine Child.
Heaven knows, when he entered the treasure vault and his inherited memories were activated, he faced a difficult choice.
The reason why his attitude towards Yun Xi changed so drastically, choosing to let Yun Xi, an outsider, go and even personally bringing her here, was precisely because he wanted Yun Xi to approach that Abnormal God as a non- God of Light Divine Child.
Perhaps Yun Xi can successfully obtain the Light Godhead by negotiating with it.
Once that happens, it will be much easier for him to obtain the Light Godhead from Yun Xi.
"In this situation, the only way is for you to go in and negotiate with the Abnormal God, sign a contract with it, and make it promise not to harm us. At the same time, you can release it. In this way, you can successfully obtain the Light Godhead."
"You want me to be a pawn, to take such a huge risk?"
Abnormal God's eyes alone possess such immense power, one can imagine how dangerous it would be to enter the formation and negotiate with him.
The divided soul of the God of Light Divine Child hurriedly said, "This is also a last resort; only in this way can we have a glimmer of hope."
Yun Xi sneered, "Hmph, that's easy for you to say. Why don't you go?"
"That Abnormal God hates the Lord of Light God and the God of Light Divine Child to the bone. If I go there, I'll probably be wiped out in an instant. But you are different. You are not the God of Light Divine Child, so you may still have some room to maneuver."
"You've got a clever plan, but why should I listen to you?"
"If you can successfully obtain the Light Godhead, I am willing to share some of its power with you."
"But if I can obtain the Light Godhead by negotiating with the Abnormal God, or even by making a contract with it, why would I want to share the Light Godhead with you?" Yun Xi said coldly.
The God of Light Divine Child, however, was confident in his plan.
"The Light Godhead contains a special bloodline restriction. I am the son of the Father God, and His Light Godhead can only be inherited by me. You should understand what I mean, right?"
"If you can obtain the Light Godhead by negotiating with that Abnormal God, I'm willing to sign System Contract with you and give you half of the Light Godhead. How about it?"
The God of Light Divine Child's divided soul had already seen that Yun Xi was not someone who could be easily fooled, so he also showed sincerity and wanted to become a true collaborator with Yun Xi.
"I can even help you truly embark on the path of Light and allow you to enter the Temple of Light."
"We can add a clause to the contract that we cannot attack each other before we become gods. After we become gods, we can decide whether or not to duel for the position of the Light God King. What do you think of my suggestion?"
"Your idea is indeed good, but if you want to negotiate with the Abnormal God, you will inevitably have to release it. Even if it is bound by the contract and cannot harm us, the outside world will still suffer greatly as a result..."
"Then why don't you try negotiating with it and get it into the Abnormal Domain? I think freedom is more important to it."
"It would be best to deal with the people sent by the Temple of Netherworld, the Dragon Flame Strange Domain, and the Crystal Strange Domain before it returns to the Abnormal Domain."
