Lin Hui knew that the Immortal Fire would attract the attention of unknown beings, but because he didn't appear immediately, he gradually forgot about it over time.
Unexpectedly, it took three years for the effects to become apparent.
Within his Mind Sea, Lin Hui paused the process of converting the Wind Disaster into wind Wind Energy, suppressed all fluctuations in his aura, and activated the effects of the Heart Source Demon Emperor's Crown.
They were trying to conceal their presence.
Unfortunately, it was completely useless.
That inexplicable sense of closeness, the feeling that something enormous was rapidly approaching, and it kept getting stronger.
It seems there's no escaping it...
Lin Hui took a deep breath, even though he no longer needed to breathe. This subconscious way of relieving his stress still calmed him down a bit.
He simply floated cross-legged in the void, waiting.
What exactly is this so-called unknown entity we're waiting for?
Time ticked by, second by second.
Fifteen minutes passed quickly.
That urgent sense of closeness vanished in an instant.
Lin Hui's expression changed slightly, and he was about to carefully sense where it had gone.
laugh.
Suddenly, the Mind Sea surrounding him vanished completely.
Just a second ago, he was in the Mind Sea filled with purple mist, but the next moment, the space around him had switched to a burning space covered with endless red flames.
"No... you are not Karmic Fire... your soul is not pure enough, it is not burning..."
A muffled, aged voice echoed and spread from the surrounding area.
Lin Hui's heart skipped a beat.
Before the other party appeared, he was somewhat flustered, but now that they had actually appeared, he was much calmer.
"My name is Lin Hui. May I ask your name, senior?" He couldn't see the other person, so he could only cup his hands in greeting.
"An heir..." the old man sighed, "Anger... An heir without anger cannot see the future..."
"Senior...?"
"Our understanding of all things is ultimately lacking a necessary element, but extreme anger can lead to a loss of reason, a loss of self-control, and ultimately, destruction..." the voice murmured to itself, seemingly completely unconcerned about what Lin Hui was saying.
" The Immortal Fire has only its last embers remaining; the Moon of Wrath is destined to be nothing more than food for the Ultimate Sun... We... We..." The voice gradually faded into the distance, seemingly filled with disappointment after seeing Lin Hui, making it unwilling to linger even for a moment longer.
Lin Hui clearly felt that all the flames around him were changing color, from red to purple, and then quickly returned to the purple mist in his Mind Sea.
It was as if everything I had just seen and heard was just an illusion.
but...
He was about to breathe a sigh of relief, thinking he had finally gotten through this uncertain situation.
boom!!
In an instant, a vast amount of memory information flooded into his mind.
These fragmented information streams, scattered from one place to another, all tell the story of a being called Karmic Fire.
Karmic Fire is an innate fire spirit, a being born with sentience from flames. Therefore, in its mind, everything in the outside world is categorized into only two types: those that can be burned and those that cannot be burned.
His race, like the Endless Divine Clan, ruled over many smaller worlds, essentially a magnified and enhanced version of the Endless Divine Clan hundreds of times larger.
Originally a prince of the Fire Spirit Clan, it lived a carefree life, possessed extraordinary potential, and had a limitless future.
But one day, the endless blue light appeared, heralding the beginning of all destruction.
The flames went out.
It was swallowed up and extinguished by that pure blue light.
The entire clan combined their remaining strength into an inextinguishable flame, which they then absorbed into his body.
On the day he successfully escaped, he vowed to take revenge on the Light Disaster.
Thus, it began to ignite everything within itself, including its soul, evolving towards the form of the Moon of Wrath from the tribe's mythology.
Many of the memory fragments are the contents of countless civilized worlds that this Karmic Fire has been conquering, burning, and devouring.
Driven by revenge and a desire to strengthen himself, he resorted to any means necessary, slaughtering countless lives.
At first, he tried to stop the Light Disaster, but when he realized he couldn't, he started taking another extreme approach.
That means destroying the world before the Light Disaster occurs.
A thousand years, ten thousand years, a million years, hundreds of millions of years...
The power of the Karmic Fire expanded and grew, becoming so powerful that it reached an extremely terrifying level.
Therefore, he decided to launch a final revenge against the Light Disaster Light Disaster, to completely negate it and annihilate it.
He told his closest friend about it, and then went there alone, never to be heard from again.
The old man who had just arrived was a close friend of his. He had been drawn there by the Immortal Fire, thinking it was the whereabouts of his friend, but alas...
The moment the old man saw Lin Hui, he already guessed that Karmic Fire was probably dead.
"Since you have inherited his power, then... you will inevitably inherit everything he has. Whether it's his accumulated strength or his enemies... So, this is for you. It was a gift he once gave me, and now you need it more than I do."
The aged voice came again.
At the same time, the space in front of Lin Hui trembled slightly, and a slender, dark red sword blade made entirely of liquid resembling flame magma appeared silently.
The blade was constantly radiating dense golden particles, and there were wisps of black things on the blade that looked like symbols or patterns that were moving and twisting.
The hilt of the sword was covered with solidified black rock, rough and primitive, with many small golden-red crystals growing in the middle.
Lin Hui shook his head, snapping out of the shock of the message. The other party's level was clearly extremely high, to the point that even the sound of the message made his head buzz and ache.
That was caused by the slight shock of injury resulting from the pressure on the soul during an extremely brief contact.
This means that he had only made contact with the old man and exchanged a few words, yet his seemingly powerful soul had been injured.
Looking at the weapon in front of him.
Lin Hui reached out and gently grasped the hilt of the sword.
Sun Eater ".
This is the name of the weapon. In essence, judging from the information remaining on the weapon, it is not a sword, but a weapon that can change its form at the will of its master.
The sword is displayed here simply because it is Lin Hui's favorite and most proficient weapon.
The relevant information slowly flowed into his mind. This time there was no Blood Seal, and he quickly understood the weapon's level and effects.
This was a cruel weapon once wielded by Karmic Fire, destroying countless worlds. After he forged an even more powerful weapon, he gifted it to a friend.
The effects of Sun Eater are very simple.
That is, literally, to devour the sun!
Yes, this is an exaggeratedly destructive weapon that, once activated, can devour a star.
Lin Hui reached out, gently grasped the hilt of the sword, lifted it, and held it firmly.
The blade was so light, it felt like I was just holding the handle; I couldn't even feel the weapon's presence.
But Lin Hui's soul could clearly sense the intense hatred and anger emanating from the sword.
The Ever-Burning Contemplation... I see... Any view of cognition is created by living beings' understanding of all things. One of the creations of the Ever-Burning Contemplation is this powerful existence called Karmic Fire.
Driven by hatred for the annihilation of his race, he challenged the Ultimate Sun, the source of the Light Disaster, until he finally disappeared. But in doing so, he reached the pinnacle of power within the Ever-Burning Contemplation.
Based on numerous fragments of memory, Lin Hui roughly pieced together the whole story.
These ancient views on cultivation and cognition clearly conceal secrets and legends buried in the unknown.
In the records of his own tribe, this Karmic Fire can be described as a prince seeking revenge, a defeated hero.
But to the vast number of worlds he burned, he was undoubtedly a destroyer, the ultimate world-destroying monster.
At this point, Lin Hui should have breathed a sigh of relief, because the trouble with the Immortal Perpetual Motion Mechanism seemed to be over. He no longer needed to feel uneasy.
But in fact... he's even more uneasy now.
because...
Among the fragmented memories scattered by the Karmic Fire were records of many powerful civilizations he had destroyed, some of which he vaguely remembered.
Among them... there are three with distinct styles.
Their names are: Endless Divine Clan, Broken Heart Dragon Clan, Silent Stone Swallow Clan.
Holding the Sun Eater, Lin Hui froze for a moment.
He said that the evolution of the Blood Seal was never unrelated, but was always connected to the surrounding environment in some way.
He found it somewhat strange at the time; this Immortal Fire seemed to be a power completely detached from this world.
But now it seems...
Holding the sword, he had a thought and controlled the Sun Eater to transform into a wisp of golden-red fire that merged into his palm.
My feelings became somewhat complicated.
The Karmic Fire wiped out the three races. The surviving members fled far away, eventually arriving here where they established new territory, recuperated, and rebuilt their communities. And me...
He didn't know how to describe his complicated feelings at that moment.
He inexplicably became the successor of the enemy who had wiped out three clans.
From this perspective, the time it took for the Karmic Fire to fall and disappear should not exceed ten million years, because according to the records of the God Clan's historical documents, the history of these three races migrating here is at most seven million years.
He has now thoroughly studied every historical text he could access.
This kind of common knowledge is a textbook that all children of the God Clan must learn, so he could naturally remember it immediately.
"Well, as long as I don't say anything, as long as I don't publicly use or display this power, the three races shouldn't find out. I'll just be more careful in the future..." Lin Hui felt somewhat fortunate at this moment. Luckily, after obtaining the Immortal Fire, he hadn't recklessly and openly used it.
If he had done that back then, he suspected he might not have been able to protect even his teacher, and would have been ambushed and killed by the three races without even knowing why.
I received the Sun Eater with mixed feelings.
This weapon is said to be powerful enough to destroy a star with a single strike. But that is its full form. In its current basic form, it is an indestructible super weapon.
Aside from being indestructible and having extremely high temperatures, reaching millions of degrees Celsius, capable of incinerating most things, it has no other special characteristics.
Of course, with temperatures exceeding one million degrees Celsius, it's already enough to be called a weapon among weapons...
In other words, this is the Mind Sea, and the surrounding environment is not afraid of being burned by extremely high temperatures.
If it were the human world...
The moment this sword is drawn, it's estimated that simply placing it in place would dissolve and vaporize everything around it.
Without even a flick of the wrist, an entire city in the vicinity could be destroyed and vanish.
Even the most advanced heat-resistant materials discovered in the human world only have a melting point of several hundred thousand degrees.
This is millions of degrees...
