Negotiating with Electrolux
After the auction ended, everyone returned to the Star Emperor Hotel.
Xiao Xiao felt that after being away for so long, she needed to take a good shower when she got back, so she didn't come straight to Chen Yuan to cultivate together.
Taking advantage of this brief moment, Chen Yuan calmed himself down, sat cross-legged, and brought his consciousness into the Sea of Consciousness.
Just as he was about to pick up the Sun God Bow, he noticed that Electrolux, who usually stayed motionless in the corner as a small bead, had changed positions today.
"Dali Gu, has Old Yi woken up?"
"I don't know, Gulu, this gray bead has always looked like this."
Seeing that Dali Gu, who had been staying there, also seemed unsure of what was going on, Chen Yuan stepped forward.
Chen Yuan Chen Yuan walked up to Electrolux and poked him with his finger to see Electrolux reaction. Electrolux instantly appeared above Chen Yuan Chen Yuan gave him a sharp flick on the head.
"Young friend, please respect this old man."
Electrolux's aged voice echoed within Chen Yuan's Sea of Consciousness. The gray bead vanished, and Electrolux transformed into his physical form, standing before Chen Yuan.
Electrolux was dressed in a gray-black robe, his eyes filled with a deathly stillness, yet also possessing a peculiar sense of holiness.
Seeing Electrolux like this, Chen Yuan understood that Electrolux had recovered to a certain extent.
Wow! The bead has turned into a human- Gulu again!
"Old Yi."
"Young friend, there's no need for this between us."
Electrolux glanced at the Sun God Bow and Dali Gu, which were placed there, and then at the Pillar of Courage and the Eastern Sun King Dragon Statue behind them.
To his surprise, when he woke up, his familiar Sea of Consciousness had changed drastically. The little dragon was still there, but its aura was even more unfathomable to him.
And that bow over there doesn't look simple at all.
Electrolux sensed danger emanating from it, a danger unlike any he had ever felt before.
As Electrolux who once created the Eternal Tower, Electrox naturally had extremely high standards.
Even with Electrolux's discerning eye, he couldn't see through the bow's true nature, only vaguely sensing that its grade was definitely no lower than the Super Divine Artifact he remembered.
Electrolux felt like he'd been tricked, but unfortunately, he had no proof.
"Young friend, could you tell me how you knew I would appear in that forest, and how you knew that the Gold of Life could attract me?"
"I'm sorry, Old Yi, this is a secret of mine and I can't tell you, but please believe me, I have no intention of harming you."
"Hahaha, I was originally just a remnant soul, and only through the nourishment of the Gold of Life have I been able to stabilize completely."
"If it concerns your secrets, then I cannot pry. But please tell me, why did you draw me into your Sea of Consciousness?"
What is your purpose?
This was the only thing Electrolux cared about deeply, as it concerned how he would treat Chen Yuan in the future.
Currently, Electrolux has not sensed any evil aura from Chen Yuan, and as long as he doesn't do anything heinous, Electrolux will not interfere.
They would even help Chen Yuan to the best of their ability.
Seeing this, Chen Yuan also delivered the speech he had prepared beforehand.
"Old Yi, I know you are a powerful figure in your world, and I believe you also know about becoming a god, right?"
"Becoming a god? According to my current memories, in my original world, if a person becomes a god, he will become one with heaven and earth, giving back to heaven and earth, and his will will endure forever."
That's right, this is the law of becoming a god in the Holy Demon Continent. That's why Long Haochen, the protagonist of the Holy Demon Continent, did not become a god in the end, but instead limited his total spiritual power to 999,999.
Electrolux is even more formidable; if he wanted to, he could have become a god long ago on the Holy Demon Continent.
In other words, becoming a god was merely a matter of a single thought for Electrolux.
"Old Yi, the world you are in now is called Douluo Continent, a world where one can truly become a god and achieve eternal life."
"But ten thousand years ago..."
Following that, Chen Yuan briefly recounted the story of Sea God Tang San from ten thousand years ago, to Electrolux.
Upon hearing about the world's distorted cultivation system and the fact that someone had actually ascended to godhood ten thousand years ago, Electrolux's emotions couldn't help but fluctuate.
But then, Chen Yuan told him how Sea God Tang San, plotted against an entire world after becoming a god, and how ruthless he was, splitting his daughter's soul into three.
As he plotted against a newly born star in a plane, intending to seize the Life Core and the Plane Master Divine Throne, Electrolux's brow furrowed deeper and deeper.
Isn't this person's ambition a bit too great? Does he really think the whole world is his backyard?
"Old Yi, that's why I want to ask for your help, not for the sake of this entire continent, but only for myself."
"I want to become a god. I want to break free from the Sea God's control and become someone who can truly control their own destiny."
Electrolux lowered his head in thought, glancing a few times at the Sun God Bow lying there, and then at the Fire Elephant Star Seal flashing on Chen Yuan's forehead.
Electrolux chuckled lightly under Chen Yuan's surprised gaze.
He pointed to the Sun God Bow and Dali Gu over there, then pointed to Chen Yuan.
Do you know the origin of that bow over there?
"I know, that's the Sun God Bow, representing the sun. I don't quite understand what level the Sun God Bow is classified in this world."
"It must be Super Divine Artifact, right? Based on my understanding of the Sun God Bow, if it's not Super Divine Artifact, I really can't imagine what a true Super Divine Artifact would be like."
This Super Divine Artifact; in this era, there should only be six in the Divine Realm.
Sea God Trident, Asura Demon Sword, Scepter of Destruction, Ancient Tree of Life, Ghost Carving Divine Blade, and the Hate-Earth Ringless Suit.
Although the first God of Evil passed on their Divine Throne, they did not leave behind Super Divine Artifact.
In Chen Yuan's opinion, none of these things were as impressive as the Sun God Bow.
Upon hearing Chen Yuan's answer, Electrolux nodded, acknowledging Chen Yuan's statement.
"That's right, this is undoubtedly a Super Divine Artifact."
"Moreover, it's already bound to you and the dragon beside you; no one else can use it except for you two."
"If you surrender, I believe that the Sea God Tang San would be very happy to make you gods, and you will surely be the husband of the Daughter of the Sea God."
"With your potential, and with the Sea God's tacit approval, becoming First-Level God is entirely within your reach. According to you, a First-Level God wielding Super Divine Artifact would have considerable influence in your Divine Realm."
"Then let's forget it, Old Yi. I don't like being manipulated."
"Like I just said, I want to take control of my own life."
"Besides, how can I trust someone who can be so cruel to his own daughter to truly care for me?"
He could even disregard the sect he founded himself; he didn't care about anyone else, only the endless faith that this world provided for him.
"As long as he can have faith, he doesn't care what the world is like. The Tang Sect and Shrek Academy are just tools for him to collect faith; if they don't work, he'll just switch to another one."
"If I were to serve such a person, I would end up being nothing more than his dog."
