The Hidden Mastermind, Fate Follows the Heart

"That was really dangerous; the Slaughter System almost self-destructed."

Liu Yi slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, looking at the Slaughter System that had been completely suppressed. He checked it carefully ten times to confirm that it had been completely suppressed.

However, he discovered that the Slaughter System's consciousness had disappeared, as if it had been completely erased by an invisible force.

He immediately reviewed and pondered the situation in his mind.

The Slaughter System had just tried to surrender, then cried out in pain and suddenly self-destructed.

It is not difficult to conclude from this that there must have been external interference in the dark, which not only erased its consciousness but also forced it to self-destruct.

It must have been a restriction placed on the Slaughter System at its inception.

Once the thought of surrender arises, or secrets are revealed, the restriction will be activated immediately, erasing their consciousness and detonating the system itself.

As for the person behind this, it's not hard to guess.

It is neither the System World itself, nor the being that creates the System World.

Of course, it's also possible that the Slaughter System is just making up System World to scare him.

However, this possibility is relatively small.

Regardless of who the mastermind is, he is currently powerless to resist them, and delving deeper would only invite trouble and is simply unnecessary.

If the other party insists on coming to him, he can only face it calmly.

Furthermore, it can be inferred from what the Slaughter System says that...

It is merely one of many systems within the System World, and cannot represent the entire world at all.

Those behind the scenes mostly don't care about its survival.

After all, the System World contains countless system beings. These systems travel to various realms to plunder the World Origin, and their demise is a common occurrence.

The demise of a Slaughter System is unlikely to cause any significant disturbance or attract the attention of the other party.

With this thought, Liu Yi felt somewhat relieved. He then raised his hand and placed a hundred Great Dao Seal on the main body of the Slaughter System to further strengthen its suppressive power.

He casually grabbed it and put it into his Storage Space, intending to study it in detail later.

He then asked the system AI, "Was that person the host of the Slaughter System? What is his background?"

The system immediately replied, "Master, he is the host of the Slaughter System, named Wusheng."

This person cultivated to create clones, and both clones were simultaneously bound to the system.

This time, they intend to use their master's hand to completely break free from the control of the Slaughter System.

"I see. This Wusheng is quite interesting."

A hint of interest flickered in Liu Yi's eyes. "To realize so quickly that the Slaughter System was malfunctioning, and to dare to take the risk of using my power to escape, you have extraordinary courage."

The fact that the other party could resist the temptations of the various benefits offered by the Slaughter System is something that no ordinary person could do.

This is a person of great wisdom and perseverance.

Now that the opponent has broken free of the Slaughter System, their future is limitless.

Although Wusheng's secret scheming against him made him somewhat unhappy.

However, the other party also allowed him to find the Slaughter System and suppress it, which can be considered as offsetting his merits and demerits, so no reward or punishment will be given.

Having made up his mind, he instructed the system AI: "Let this matter rest. Do not reward or punish Wusheng. From now on, treat him the same as other system hosts."

"As you command, Master," the system intelligently replied.

Liu Yi moved swiftly and vanished without a trace, returning to the City of Exile.

Seeing the Slaughter System being sealed and taken away by the Fairness System, Wusheng felt a sense of relief, as if he had finally broken free from his long-standing shackles, and immediately burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! I've finally escaped the Slaughter System! From now on, my fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of heaven!"

After laughing heartily for a long time, he gradually calmed down and looked at the disappearing mountains in front of him. At first, a wave of fear surged in his heart, but then a burning longing ignited within him.

After a clash between the two systems, the entire mountain range was easily flattened. If he hadn't withdrawn in time, he would have been crushed by the aftershocks.

Such immense power is truly something to aspire to.

If he could wield such power, he might be able to resurrect his mother.

However, he is now bound to the Fairness System, and he still has a chance to become Immortal Emperor in the future, at which time he can resurrect his mother.

A thought flashed through his mind, and he suddenly realized what was happening.

The battle just now was so fierce that it could have alerted the surrounding cultivators. It is not advisable to stay here any longer; any further delay could bring disaster.

He immediately mounted his sword and flew at top speed towards the direction of his True Self Clone.

Upon arriving outside the city where his True Self Clone was located, he did not enter the city, but instead landed directly on the outskirts.

My True Self Clone has been quietly waiting here for some time.

The tattered spirit blade landed steadily in front of the True Self Clone. Wusheng's divine soul emerged from the blade and transformed into a stream of light, rushing into the clone's sea of consciousness.

The two divine souls of the same origin slowly merged and Return to Unity.

The two divine souls were originally one and of the same origin, so their fusion was completely unimpeded.

In a short while, the two souls completely merged into one.

Wusheng slowly opened his eyes, sensing that his soul had broken through to the Middle Stage Spirit Transformation Realm. A slight smile appeared on his lips, and he was secretly delighted.

Unexpectedly, the fusion of the two souls directly elevated his divine soul to the Middle Stage Spirit Transformation Realm.

However, this method is not a conventional approach and must never be used again.

When his soul was split apart earlier, he suffered extreme pain and almost lost his soul. He really didn't want to experience that again.

Moreover, splitting one's soul would diminish one's potential, which is why he decided to completely merge his two souls and stop creating True Self Clone.

In the past, this was a last resort. If I hadn't split my soul to create True Self Clone, I would have had no chance of escaping the control of the Slaughter System.

Fortunately, he took the risk, otherwise he wouldn't have had a physical body to support his soul.

Wusheng sensed that his physical body had never undergone cultivation and was still A Mortal.

However, A Mortal body is actually the best.

He can start over, switching to the Dao Seed Martial Dao System with unlimited potential, and in the future, he will have the opportunity to embark on the path of creation and become Dao Ancestor.

"The Fairness System is far too powerful. Only after binding with it did I realize that the Slaughter System is simply a million miles behind."

He sighed inwardly.

The Fairness System's cultivation assistance functions are extremely comprehensive, covering all aspects of cultivation. It can greatly help the system host improve their cultivation level and can also automatically generate Energy Points.

With such uniquely favorable conditions, it's no wonder that those system hosts cultivate at an extremely fast pace.

Now that he is bound to the Fairness System, he can fully enjoy all the functions it offers.

He also possesses his past cultivation experience and a divine soul at the Middle Stage Spirit Transformation Realm, so this path of rebuilding will surely be twice as effective with half the effort.

What reassured him even more was that the Fairness System could be unbound on its own, allowing him to withdraw in time even if he discovered potential problems later.

No need to go through the same painstaking effort and pay the same high price to break free from the Slaughter System as before.

Wusheng a single thought, Wusheng sold all the various Cultivation Method he knew to the System Store, including the "Wusheng Slaughter Scripture" without reservation.

This sale of Cultivation Method Secret Manual yielded a total of 11.7 billion Energy Points.

Looking at the huge amount of Energy Points he had just received, a smile appeared on his lips.

With so many Energy Points at his disposal, plus the Energy Points automatically generated by the system every day, he won't be short of money in the short term, enough to focus on improving his cultivation.

No longer do we need to slaughter living beings to obtain Slaughter Points to exchange for Cultivation Resources.

At this moment, he truly understood the vast difference in treatment between hosts of the Fairness System and hosts of the Slaughter System.

Looking back on those days, they were truly inhuman.

He felt incredibly relaxed, laughed heartily, and strode towards the city.

From now on, the world will be your oyster, Fate be in your own hands!
