Chapter 79: The Ancient Deity
Chapter 79: The Ancient Deity
Cut off from the heavens and earth, Lin Yuan prepared not only to prevent the divine weapons from returning to the realm but also to block the fluctuations in his aura caused by his confrontation with them.
In the Central Plains, each of the thirty-six kingdoms possessed a divine weapon, and all thirty-six of these artifacts emerged from the great war eight millennia ago. Together, they divided and ruled over the thirty-six kingdoms.
There must have been some secret agreement among these thirty-six divine weapons to maintain the peace among them, such as a pact of mutual surveillance.
If his suppression of the Sun-Moon Spear were to be noticed by the other thirty-five divine weapons, he would undoubtedly face a joint assault from all of them.
Even without such an agreement, the other thirty-five divine weapons would likely take action upon witnessing Lin Yuan's strength, whether to share in the spoils or to eliminate future threats.
Should Lin Yuan somehow escape their encirclement and annihilation, the thirty-five divine weapons would still be deeply wary of his power and most likely hasten their harvest of sentient beings to quickly ascend to the fourth tier.
After all, according to the intentions of the other evil weapons, the thirty-six divine weapons were already very close to the fourth tier.
"What are you waiting for?"
The Sun-Moon Spear was unaware of the changes in its surroundings. Having just awakened from its slumber, its perception of its environment was weakened.
"Recently, there was an evil weapon called the Splitting Heaven Axe," Lin Yuan casually introduced a topic to divert the spear's attention.
"Is it that one?" The Sun-Moon Spear paused slightly, its tone dripping with contempt.
Even eight millennia ago, the Splitting Heaven Axe was no match for it, let alone now.
"If..." The Sun-Moon Spear was about to explain something when it saw Lin Yuan raise his right hand and slowly clench it.
Buzz! A terrifying pressure filled every inch of the air. The 'divine dragon' that the Sun-Moon Spear had transformed into instantly disintegrated.
Lin Yuan's figure suddenly appeared a thousand meters closer, materializing in front of the spear, and then he reached out and grasped the spear's body with his right hand.
"How dare you!!!" The Sun-Moon Spear erupted in rage instinctively.
For countless years, not even during the brutal war eight millennia ago, had any divine weapon dared to approach it so boldly, let alone grasp it.
Aside from the 'Father God' who had forged it long ago, no creature had ever done such a thing.
A terrifying aura of the divine weapon suddenly erupted, and a piercing force, sharp to the extreme, akin to tearing through the air, lashed out at Lin Yuan.
"Too late," Lin Yuan shook his head slightly, a smile appearing on his face.
It was as if he hadn't drawn close or grasped the Sun-Moon Spear at all. With the power of the divine weapon, it could perhaps hold its own against him for a while.
But now...
He had locked down the true body of the Sun-Moon Spear. No matter how it struggled, it was of no avail.
This had been Lin Yuan's ultimate plan. If he had directly attacked the Sun-Moon Spear, he might not have been able to handle it, and he probably wouldn't even have known where its true body was located.
Moreover, if he had revealed his strength and aroused the spear's vigilance, things would have become even more difficult.
Only by assuming the role of the'spokesperson' during the sacrificial ceremony could he have gotten close to the Sun-Moon Spear without arousing its suspicion, allowing him to seize its vital point instantly, as he had just done.
"It really is close to reaching the fourth tier," Lin Yuan said solemnly, feeling the spear's struggles in his hand.
At this moment, it appeared that he was merely holding a two-meter-long spear, but in reality, it felt as if he were restraining a soaring dragon capable of summoning clouds and rain.
"How is this possible? How can this be?"
"Who are you? How can you possess such power?" The Sun-Moon Spear was utterly terrified.
After attempting to counter Lin Yuan several times, only to be suppressed each time, the spear immediately realized the gravity of its situation.
This was bad.
Things had taken a turn for the worse.
With its true body suppressed, no matter how great its divine power or ability, it would be difficult to turn the tables.
"Taiji," Lin Yuan said, and in his eyes, black and white vortices began to swirl.
In an instant, the Sun-Moon Spear felt the pressure bearing down on it increase severalfold.
The extreme forces of the Ultraviolet and Infrared flowed along the spear's body, constantly invading its consciousness.
"You forced me to do this," the Sun-Moon Spear said, its spiritual fluctuations exploding.
The spear's body began to turn illusory as it clearly intended to return to the heavens and earth.
Although this method would cause its consciousness to dissipate, it was still better than falling into Lin Yuan's hands.
Moreover, facing Lin Yuan's Taiji power and that perfectly balanced extreme force, the Sun-Moon Spear felt that even if it didn't return to the heavens and earth, its consciousness wouldn't be able to hold out for long.
Rather than that, it would be better to return to the world.
"After thousands of years, I will make the descendants of the Great Flame suffer under the sun and moon," the Sun-Moon Spear vowed, planting this deep hatred within its body.
With this, even if the Sun-Moon Spear reappeared in the world and a new consciousness was born, it would hold an intense hatred for the descendants of the Great Flame Dynasty.
However, just as the Sun-Moon Spear reached the halfway point of its fusion...
The originally illusory spear body suddenly solidified once more.
"What?"
The Sun-Moon Spear was shocked.
Its process of merging with the world had actually been interrupted.
"You actually... You actually cut yourself off from the heavens and the earth?"
The Sun-Moon Spear's heart grew heavy.
Cutting oneself off from the heavens and the earth sounded simple, but it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
Rumble...
Along with the further oppression of the Taiji grinding plate, the consciousness of the Sun-Moon Spear began to gradually sink into darkness.
"Mission accomplished."
Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
By now, the time limit of one hour to cut off the heavens and the earth was very close.
Fortunately, nothing unexpected had happened.
"A complete divine weapon."
Lin Yuan looked at the Sun-Moon Spear in his hand, now reduced to the size of a palm.
Even so, the spear emitted a faint oppressive aura—the essence of the rules of the heavens and the earth.
"Take."
With a slight movement of Lin Yuan's mind, the fragments of the evil weapon that he had placed around the ancestral land returned to his side.
With the disappearance of the evil weapon, the separation of the heavens and the earth was restored.
However, by now, the great battle was over, so there were no problems.
After suppressing the Sun-Moon Spear, Lin Yuan immediately returned to his underground palace.
This place was built in a remote corner of the Great Flame Dynasty, hidden from outsiders.
"Sun-Moon Spear," Lin Yuan said, sitting cross-legged and gazing at the palm-sized spear floating before him, so captivated that he almost forgot to breathe.
The first impression Lin Yuan got from observing a complete divine weapon was perfection. It was as if the spear embodied the sun, the moon, the stars, and the very essence of the heavens and the earth, with every part in perfect harmony.
Several days later, Sikong Lun arrived at the underground palace, holding a wooden box.
Inside was a fragment of a weapon—a fragment of the evil weapon.
Lin Yuan had long ordered the Reverse God Society to collect various evil weapons.
Although the evil weapon in the wooden box had not given birth to a consciousness, it was still a fragment of a divine weapon and met Lin Yuan's requirements.
However, as Sikong Lun approached the palace and saw Lin Yuan sitting in the center, with the spear floating in front of him, he froze.
"That spear... Which evil weapon is that?" Sikong Lun asked, his face filled with confusion.
Among the numerous evil weapons he had collected for Lin Yuan, there were very few spears.
Moreover, Sikong Lun sensed that the spear before Lin Yuan was exceptionally complete. It seemed...
Sikong Lun's eyes widened as his mind raced.
He carefully sensed the spear and realized, with growing astonishment, that it didn't seem to be an evil weapon at all.
Instead, it felt like a divine weapon.
A complete divine weapon.
But how was that possible?
There were a fixed number of divine weapons in the world.
Thirty-six divine weapons overlooked the mortal realm.
How could there be an extra divine weapon now?
"Is that the Sun-Moon Spear? The Sun-Moon Spear of the Great Flame Dynasty?" Sikong Lun whispered, his heart trembling.
A mighty divine weapon, obediently submitting to Lin Yuan—this was simply unimaginable.
Although Sikong Lun knew that Lin Yuan had once suppressed the various evil weapon users, evil weapons were far inferior to true divine weapons.
"Master," Sikong Lun stammered, his legs turning soft as he hesitated to approach.
In the center of the palace, Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, having successfully suppressed the Sun-Moon Spear.
He then attempted to browse through the spear's memories.
Rumble...
A vast spiritual power began to invade.
The Sun-Moon Spear's memories from countless years began to unfold before Lin Yuan.
Unlike the other evil weapons, the Sun-Moon Spear was a complete divine weapon, and its memories were intact.
Lin Yuan's expression turned solemn as he quickly browsed through the memories, going back countless years.
These were memories that Lin Yuan had never encountered before, as the other evil weapons had shattered bodies and had long lost this part of their recollection.
Boom! Along with the memories of the Sun-Moon Spear, Lin Yuan felt as if he had traveled back countless years.
He found himself in a vast world, his gaze sweeping across the surroundings.
Soon, he saw a colossal figure.
It was majestic and radiant, an ancient god.
