God of Desire: Wait, Dude, You Can Actually Do It?

"Can you help me 'purify' the Desire Authority?"

The God of Desire looked at Lin Yu with an expression of disbelief, even a hint of sarcasm.

"You did say that... but, mortal, you don't seem to understand what you're talking about."

"I admit, your understanding of Authority far surpasses that of ordinary mortals, but to want to 'purify' Desire... you're overthinking it."

"You have no idea how ingeniously and thoroughly that scheming man corrupted the Desire Authority in order to make me fall from the Divine Rank Deity."

"These Demigod souls were absorbed into me by Authority uncontrolled 'Desire' Authority after I was affected and lost control of it. Their will and souls became completely integrated with 'Desire'."

"Moreover, many of those souls themselves are Demigod, and their strength is very high... The strong, pure, and unified Desire generated by those remaining wills and souls, in turn, drive a part of 'Desire' to continue operating automatically, maintaining an out-of-control state that I cannot control."

"The two nourish and transform into each other... It's almost no different from this Desire Authority coming to life in half; you can't stop this process."

"This is almost an irreversible 'phenomenon'—it exists based on the most fundamental principles and Law governing the effectiveness of 'Authority,' and no will can reverse it—not even another Deity can do it, let alone a mortal like you."

The God of Desire explained.

Having been trapped in the Nether Void Realm for so many years, it's impossible that He didn't try to "save Himself" or purify the Authority "Desire" to ascend back to the Deity Divine Rank.

But before Lin Yu arrived and took Him away, such a long time had passed, God of Desire still maintained his current awkward state of having fallen from the Divine Rank of Deity, which naturally indicated...

Over the years, He has not found any way to regain control of the Authority "Desire"Desire or restore Authority to normal.

Even when faced with a desperate, all-or-nothing confrontation with Lin Yu, the God of Desire, confronted with Lin Yu's threats and the combined Combat Power of the "Inventor" and the "Comedian," two "Tier 4" Player —equivalent to Demigod —showed no sign of briefly regaining control of all "Desire" or temporarily reclaiming his "Deity" Divine Rank. This further demonstrates...

For so many years, the God of Desire has not only failed to find a solution, but has not even come up with a single idea.

He couldn't find a way to temporarily suppress these Demigod souls and allow himself to temporarily return to his peak.

So...

In the eyes of the Deity of God of Desire, how could a mere mortal possibly accomplish what even he, the very Deity who governs "Desire," could not do?

Perhaps the Prisoner wasn't lying to himself; he genuinely believed that the man could help him resolve his uncontrolled "Desire"...

But deep down, the God of Desire still felt that this was unreliable.

This mortal can utter such words simply because he is not Deity and has never truly entered the realm of the Deity —ignorance brings power.

Just like how people with higher education are less likely to find advanced mathematics and cutting-edge physics easy, and more likely to feel stupid and insignificant.

On the contrary, those who have not received systematic education are more likely to assume that they are geniuses driven by blind ignorance. They may then easily overturn the theory of relativity, believe that they can prove the Riemann Hypothesis, and confidently send letters to universities to criticize senior Scholar have actually worked in these fields for many years.

Such people exist in every world, including the Prison Mountain Realm and the Nether Void Realm.

In the eyes of the God of Desire, Lin Yu was no different from those fools who uttered wild words out of ignorance.

This mortal speaks such words because he has only a superficial understanding of "Authority" and knows nothing about the true nature of "Authority."

The God of Desire, who had been somewhat angry during his conversation with Lin Yu, had his anger subside considerably after hearing Lin Yu's words.

"You do have some skill, but... the only reason you were able to subdue Deity like me and trap me here is due to favorable timing, location, and my truly terrible condition. In essence... you are still just a pitiful mortal."

"Of course, if you can truly purify Authority... then disregard what I said."

Lin Yu looked at the God of Desire, heard the other's words, and gently flicked the [Azure Sea Sky Dome] key.

"I really can do that... It's just that your perspective as Deity is too narrow, God of Desire."

"But that's not surprising at all. Judging from your current state, I could guess... Over the years, you must have tried countless times to solve the problems within the Authority 'Desire'," Lin Yu said regretfully. "Unfortunately... you must have been completely clueless and made no progress, achieving nothing in hundreds of years. Otherwise, you certainly wouldn't be so certain that I can't do it."

"But... have you considered a possibility? Rather than saying I'm just an arrogant mortal who was able to subdue you by sheer luck," Lin Yu looked at the God of Desire and spoke earnestly, "Is it possible that you are the arrogant one who only Becoming a God by chance?"

Lin Yu asked, his tone sincere.

The God of Desire was enraged once more. "What do you mean by this?"

"You should reflect more on yourself, Your God of Desire. Besides, don't you realize that if you acknowledge your limitations, many problems would be easily solved?" Lin Yu said with a smile. "Why were you demoted from your Deity Divine Rank? Why were other Deity robbed of their Authority? And why were you outmaneuvered by a mere mortal like me... Is it possible that you were never meant to be Deity, but some opportunity simply placed you in a position that didn't belong to you?"

Lin Yu paused for a moment as he spoke.

"Of course, I never really thought of Deity as some lofty Divine Rank... nor did I think that wielding Authority was such a rare thing..."

"To Becoming a God is more a matter of luck and opportunity than one's talent and effort."

Lin Yu said calmly, "The God of Desire is inside the water sphere, his small, doll-like body radiating golden light."

He almost burst out of the [Azure Sea Sky Dome] - his whole body was pressed against the edge of the [Azure Sea Sky Dome], and his fists pounded on it with force, creating wave after wave of ripples.

"You're arrogant, mortal... Since you think Authority, Deity, and I are all so worthless and insignificant... then prove it to me!"

"You say you can purify 'Desire'? Well, I'd like to see... how you intend to purify it!"

As he spoke, within the [Azure Sea Sky Dome], Lin Yu could feel a rich Authority "Desire" being released, and the God of Desire was using all of His control over this Authority to condense Authority.

This process also demonstrates that He no longer has complete control over this Authority, and that the Authority of Desire is already half out of control.

As the golden light condensed, behind Desire itself, within the originally diffused and pure golden light, a portion began to exhibit Rule "surging," like fabric wrapping around some creature, constantly undulating and changing, flashing images of rapid condensation and dissipation beyond its control.

Without a doubt, this is the part affected by the souls of those Demigod.

Lin Yu looked at the God of Desire with a calm expression.

"I don't need to prove anything to you, but... I can do it, and that's all I can do."

With that, Lin Yu released his grip on [Azure Sea Sky Dome] and instead used his Soul Power to hold [Azure Sea Sky Dome] in mid-air.

With his two free hands, Lin Yu began to take out [Item] from among them.

[Ancient Notebook], [The Cyber Ghost's Electronic Coffin], [Dream Casket], [Error]...

Four [Item] combinations appeared in Lin Yu's hands, and these four combinations, along with Lin Yu's own Soul Power and Mental Power, were enough for him to accomplish one task.

A small fragment of his soul detached, transforming into a special kind of Soul Power that carried [Error] and [Dream Casket] into the interior of this [Azure Sea Sky Dome], where it touched the brilliant golden light.

Then...

Lin Yu [Error] approached this "Desire" Authority, and soon... those pure Authority powers began to show signs of separation from the "Demigod" soul that was mixed and fused within!

Although it is still essentially a whole and still appears inseparable, it is no longer absolute!

After Lin Yu caused this separation, he directly threw his Soul Power into it.

Having mastered the Divine Art related to the Authority "Desire," the "God of Desire" is now considered part of his [Item]. Naturally, Lin Yu can also integrate his soul and will into this Desire Authority.

Then...

His Mental Power and Soul Power began to split within the Authority, and quickly... planted seeds in those "Demigod souls" that had merged into the Authority.

Then...

Lin Yu activated the recording function of the [Dream Casket] and then recorded the fluctuations and thoughts of the fused souls into which he had implanted the seeds.

Then...

Lin Yu's Lin Yu form outside, holding the [Ancient Notebook], also received the characteristics that could be used as "soul" traits transmitted back by the [Dream Casket].

And these...

This was enough for Lin Yu to use the [Ancient Notebook] to lock down the souls of these Demigod.

However, transferring them into the [Ancient Notebook] is still somewhat difficult for the souls—after all, these souls are Authority Fusion.

But...

Lin Yu, however, could use these features to locate and drag the seed he had implanted back into the [Ancient Notebook].

By combining the "Rule" Authority within the [Cyber Ghost's Electronic Coffin], Lin Yu can further strengthen the Rule governing the [Ancient Notebook], making the extraction of his Mental Power Seed an inevitable fact.

These seeds of Mental Power and Soul Fragment... have already fused with a portion of the soul of Demigod!

Although it may only account for less than 1% of that entire soul...

However, after Lin Yu completed this series of actions...

The God of Desire could certainly sense all these changes!

"What... what did you do?!"

"You... you actually managed to do that?!"
