Chapter 494
Primordial Ancient Demon stopped and decided to pick up the unknown tribesman.
Although there were more important things to do, it was necessary to spare some effort to send the unknown clan members out of Abyssal Ruin. He could not watch the last known surviving clan member of the Primordial Ancient Demon clan die here.
The stars are changing!
Primordial Ancient Demon's eyes shine with bright starlight.
His sight kept traveling in the void, and soon it locked on Li Mu, who was wandering around Abyssal Ruin like a headless fly. As Li Mu's figure appeared under Primordial Ancient Demon's sight, Li Mu suddenly shifted in space and appeared in the palm of Primordial Ancient Demon.
"You are..."
Li Mu was shocked.
"I am Emperor Star..."
Primordial Ancient Demon looked Li Mu up and down and sighed with a complicated expression, "It turns out that you accepted the Primordial Ancient Blood inheritance from Emperor Life, but when Emperor Life gave you Primordial Ancient Blood, you had already fallen into ruins. The Primordial Ancient Blood in your body has limited potential for development.
In any case, you are already the last Primordial Ancient Demon alive.
For the time being, you follow me, and when I die, you will inherit my Primordial Ancient Blood. I will use secret techniques to return the two Primordial Ancient Bloods in your body to their original state, completely stimulating your own Primordial Ancient Blood. With your qualifications, you may become Primeval Life in the future."
"I am Li Mu, born from the Multiversal Cosmic Sea."
Li Mu looked up at Emperor Star and introduced himself.
"Li Mu, this name is not good..."
Emperor Star shook his head slightly, "No matter what race you were in the past, you are now Primordial Ancient Demon. The Primordial Ancient Demon family takes the emperor as their surname and the core power they control. This name is not chosen casually. In the future, the condensed true name will be expanded with this name as the core."
"Is that so?"
Li Mu frowned slightly.
"It doesn't matter if you really don't want to change your name..."
Emperor Star saw that Li Mu was reluctant to give up his original name, smiled bitterly and sighed, "The unified surname of the Primordial Ancient Demon family can reduce the difficulty for the people to unite their true names, but you, Primordial Ancient Demon, are the only one left alive, so it doesn't matter what your name is."
"I'm the only one alive, aren't you?"
Li Mu looked at Emperor Star in surprise.
"I'm just a living corpse..."
Emperor Star laughed at himself, "My Primordial Ancient Blood is about to be exhausted. The remaining bloodline is not even enough to transform a tribe like you with low-quality bloodline. Although my combat power exceeds Emperor Life, the life source power controlled by Emperor Life is many times better than mine in terms of bloodline inheritance."
"So that's it."
Li Mu said regretfully, not pretending to be sad.
Because of the truth and falsehood, it may be difficult to deceive Emperor Star.
It was the first time that he and Emperor Star met. Emperor Star is now friendly to him because he is the last Primordial Ancient Demon. Regardless of this identity, it would be nice if Emperor Star didn't eat him as nourishment to continue his life.
So there is no need to be hypocritical, as doing it badly will only be counterproductive.
"Let's talk as we walk!"
Emperor Star said, reaching out and pressing Li Mu into the center of the eyebrows with one hand, Nine-Colored the starry spots blended into it.
This was originally to better protect Li Mu, but the moment Li Mu entered it, Emperor Star looked surprised.
Because through Primeval Star Emblem, He discovered the curse hidden in Li Mu's body.
"You're cursed too."
Emperor Star said in disbelief.
"Well, do you know the origin of this curse?"
Li Mu asked expectantly.
"It seems that your identity is not simple."
Emperor Star was silent for a moment and said, "You are probably the reincarnation of someone I know, otherwise you are not qualified to bear such a curse. Even in that war, there were only a few people who were qualified to bear such a curse."
"Can you be more specific?"
Li Mu asked nervously.
Emperor Star did not say anything this time, but used Primeval Star Emblem to show part of his memory to Li Mu.
Li Mu instantly entered the memory of Emperor Star. Following the memory of Emperor Star, he truly understood part of the truth about the destruction of the Primordial Ancient Demon family from the perspective of God. The Primordial Ancient Demon family did not perish together with Primeval Phoenix. The truth was exactly the opposite of what later generations believed.
The Primordial Ancient Demon family tried to create the Primordial Ancient Road family to enter the upper dimension.
At that time, the Primordial Ancient Demon family did not know that this approach would have extremely terrible consequences.
Imagine that the characters in a painting jump out of the painting and become people outside the painting. This process will of course bring about earth-shaking changes in the essence and power of life, but we must know that energy conservation is an unchanging truth. It is known that there is no absolute creation out of nothing in any dimension.
If some people think that energy can come out of nothing, it is only because the true source of energy has not been found.
The same is true when True Spirit Reincarnation crosses over to Primeval Life. In this process, it is not only necessary to absorb energy from the upper dimension, but also to absorb a kind of power from the dimensional interlayer, or even from the lower dimension itself.
In this case, the Primordial Ancient Demon family's ascension will have two terrible consequences.
The first consequence is that the current dimension will be drained and the dimension itself will be destroyed.
The second consequence is that too powerful original roots will be plundered from the upper dimensions.
You must know that existences like Primeval Life are standing at the top of the upper dimension even if they are in the upper dimension.
Even this kind of Primeval Life that ascended from the lower dimension is generally far more terrifying than the Primeval Life that was born from local cultivation in the upper dimension, because the difficulty of becoming a Primeval Life is completely different between the two. There is no doubt that those who ascended from the lower dimension are more qualified and more powerful.
Because Primeval Life is too strong, there is an upper limit to the number of Primeval Life that can be born even in the upper dimension.
Because those are the only resources that become Primeval Life. If the resources are exhausted, you can only wait for resource regeneration.
In this case, Primeval Life and its affiliated forces in the upper dimension will fight to the death for the resources of Primeval Life. In this case, the Primordial Ancient Demon family will rise as a whole, which is equivalent to competing for jobs with the major forces in the upper dimension.
In this case, Primeval Phoenix came to the lower dimension to stop the Primordial Ancient Demon family.
Primeval Phoenix is not an ordinary Primeval Life, it is even more powerful than any of the three giants Primordial Ancient Demon. Even with one against two, Primeval Phoenix Nest was defeated during the battle. That is because Primeval Phoenix fell behind with one against three.
In fact, by that time when the war started, the Primordial Ancient Demon Big Three had already regretted it.
To put it bluntly, Primeval Phoenix was not ready to go to war at the beginning.
It's just that the Primordial Ancient Demon family dominates the lower dimensions and is used to being invincible, so they don't take Primeval Phoenix seriously at all. It wasn't until the two sides started a war that both sides suffered losses, that the Primordial Ancient Demon family truly realized that they were wrong.
It is right to want to ascend to the upper dimension as a whole family, but it is wrong to not have enough strength to do so forcefully.
Primeval Phoenix is just one of the overlords in Primeval Life in the upper dimension. The Primordial Ancient Demon family and Primeval Phoenix are both in trouble. Even if Primeval Phoenix is lucky enough to die three against one, what else can the Primordial Ancient Demon family do to fight against other strong men in the upper dimension?
Unless you have the strength to kill all the Primeval Life in the upper dimension, the ascension of your entire family is a joke.
So at this time, the Primordial Ancient Demon clan is ready to call a truce.
However, at this time, one of the five Primeval Life of the Primordial Ancient Demon family turned into a special kind of life, Primordial Ancient Devil, whose strength surpassed in one fell swoop The three giants of Primordial Ancient Demon killed a Primeval Life-level Primordial Ancient Demon with their backhand, and then started fighting against the three giants of Primordial Ancient Demon and Primeval Phoenix at the same time.
"Hey! Something's wrong!"
Li Mu frowned.
There are three Primordial Ancient Demon giants, but there are five Primeval Life level Primordial Ancient Demon.
Since it is the Five Deities, shouldn't it be the Big Five?
He had long known from Emperor Life that there were five Primordial Ancient Demons of Primeval Life level, but every time he thought of Primordial Ancient Demon over the years, the three giants flashed through his mind, and he never even realized whether there was anything abnormal about his thinking.
Instead, he instinctively equated the five Primordial Ancient Demon with the Big Three.
This wrong perception was obviously abnormal, but he had never felt it was abnormal in the past.
This only means one thing, his self-perception has been affected by some kind of force.
This time I realized something was wrong, only because Primeval Star Emblem, who was between Emperor Star's eyebrows, was protected by his power and corrected this wrong self-perception. It is hard to imagine what kind of terrifying power could distort his self-perception.
Li Mu continues to check the memory of Emperor Star, and will ask Emperor Star about the distortion of self-perception later.
One of the five Primordial Ancient Demon giants turned into Primordial Ancient Devil. After killing one of the giants, Primordial Ancient Demon and Primeval Phoenix, who were originally hostile, were forced to join forces to fight. However, even so, they were suppressed and beaten. This is obviously very abnormal.
At the beginning, Primordial Ancient Demon's remaining three giants didn't know what was going on.
In the end, it was Primeval Phoenix who found out the real reason why Primordial Ancient Devil is so powerful.
It turns out that the Primordial Ancient Demon family was fooled from the beginning.
The fear of Primordial Ancient Road can be imagined by building Primordial Ancient Road to ascend the whole family. However, Primordial Ancient Road is not something created by Primordial Ancient Demon, but the incomplete taboo knowledge of some ancient unknown civilization discovered by Primordial Ancient Demon, which was subsequently completed by Primordial Ancient Demon.
However, this incomplete forbidden knowledge is itself a trap.
Everything has the possibility of giving birth to consciousness. Even if the world has world consciousness, is it possible for a dimension to give birth to self-consciousness? The answer is yes, but the probability is countless times lower than the chance of Primeval Life being born, so no one has ever thought that there is a dimension that can awaken self-consciousness.
But the dimension where Primordial Ancient Demon is located, the dimension itself really gave birth to consciousness.
Once this kind of existence is born with self-consciousness, its life essence must be the pinnacle of Primeval Life.
However, the essence of life is not equal to combat power. This is like the cosmic will of the main universe. The cosmic will is very strong and can increase the combat power of beings such as the Immortal King to Myth Level 9. It can even expel two or three Myth Level 9 Spark Captain at the same time.
But the will of the universe cannot move and can only be trapped in the sea of origin of the universe.
As long as there is a mythical ninth level that can kill the origin sea of the universe, there is a 100% certainty that it will perish together with the will of the universe.
The same is true for Dimension Will, so Dimension Will is very careful to hide his existence.
It wasn't until Primeval Phoenix severely damaged a giant Primordial Ancient Demon that Dimension Will seized the opportunity and polluted the real name of the giant Primordial Ancient Demon through some means, and then possessed his own consciousness on it. This was the reason why Primordial Ancient Devil's true appearance and combat power increased dramatically.
Knowing the true identity of Primordial Ancient Devil, it is imperative to eliminate Primordial Ancient Devil and destroy Dimension Will.
However, Dimension Will was too terrible, and Emperor Star just fell into a dying sleep in the middle of the war. When he woke up, all Primeval Life had fallen, Dimension Will and Primordial Ancient Devil no longer existed, and Primordial Ancient Road, which was almost completed, also collapsed into pieces.
Emperor Star was able to wake up entirely because of a treasure he once carried.
Among them, there is also a large tonic sent by Gaia. However, that treasure is a consumable. When it is consumed, it will be the death day of Emperor Star. He came to Abyssal Ruin because he sensed through the treasure that the sacred object of the Primordial Ancient Demon family is in Abyssal Ruin.
If you can find that sacred object, you might be able to resurrect one of the Primordial Ancient Demon giants.
Li Mu looked at the end of the memory, and there was help about the curse in his body.
It turns out that Dimension Will has the terrifying consciousness pollution ability. Even the giants Primordial Ancient Demon were polluted into Primordial Ancient Devil, let alone those Primordial Ancient Demons in the True Spirit Reincarnation stage. Therefore, the three giants Primordial Ancient Demon and Primeval Phoenix each imposed special curses on each other.
Use curses to fight against the consciousness pollution of Dimension Will.
To put it bluntly, it is the same principle as fighting fire with poison. As long as the curse does not get out of control, it will become a line of defense against the pollution of dimensional consciousness. The memory is basically gone at this point. Li Mu immediately raised his various questions.
Hearing Li Mu say that his self-perception was distorted, Emperor Star stopped walking and thought for a while before answering.
"I'm afraid the problem is Primordial Ancient Blood of Emperor Life."
Emperor Star explained, "I heard that Emperor Life was used to seal Primordial Ancient Devil. I can tell you for sure that it was at most just an incarnation of Primordial Ancient Devil. Primordial Ancient Devil's body must have been sealed. The seal was in other places. Emperor Life should have been contaminated by dimensional consciousness, so he self-sacrifice sealed the incarnation of Primordial Ancient Devil. However, the sealing period was too long, causing Emperor Life's true spirit to decay, and the memory of Emperor Life also became confused and wrong.
You inherited Primordial Ancient Blood from Emperor Life, and even underwent the tenth transformation of the true spirit with the help of Emperor Life.
In this process, you have actually been slightly contaminated by dimensional consciousness."
"How to solve pollution?"
Li Mu said worriedly.
"Don't worry."
Emperor Star shook his head, "It's just a slight pollution of consciousness. The curse in your body is enough to resist the pollution. Over time, your cognition will not be affected. The most important thing for you now is to master the curse in your body. I will give you the method of controlling the curse along the way."
Hearing Emperor Star's words, Li Mu was not happy at all.
He felt that Emperor Star was hiding something. If it was really slightly contaminated by dimensional consciousness, then the error in self-perception should involve many aspects. However, he just instinctively ignored the two Primordial Ancient Demon giants, so he was sure that Emperor Star was lying.
It's just that Emperor Star doesn't want to say it, and he can't force Emperor Star to say it.
Looking at the silent Li Mu, Emperor Star knew that Li Mu was suspicious.
However, he could not tell the truth, because the wrong self-perception was actually a kind of self-protection for Li Mu, because his identity was most likely the existence he thought. Before he had True Spirit Reincarnation, just knowing some truths was enough to pose a fatal threat.
