This memory is exactly the missing one that Wang Baole saw before!
The emperor's plan was partially successful. He successfully attracted the wood calamity and kept it in the center of his eyebrows. At the same time, he divided one hundred thousand spiritual thoughts into one hundred thousand copies of the black wooden nails and swallowed them one by one.
But in the end, after successfully achieving ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine spiritual thoughts, due to the special nature of this vast universe and the integration of immortals, he failed with Wang Baole.
The remnant soul that turned into Wang Baole was completely independent, making it impossible for the emperor to integrate it... If the emperor was given a certain amount of time, maybe he could come up with other ways to solve the problem.
Or, if his condition is normal, then he can leave the seclusion again and go there in person to correct all the chaos according to his knowledge, so as to forcibly integrate it and make himself complete.
But... it wasn't just Wang Baole who had an accident, the emperor himself... also had an accident.
This accident is the huge problem that arises in him, which is what the emperor said, desire!
The truth about six desires.
In fact, although the emperor's memory has not been completely restored, some fragmented pictures still appeared in his mind as these hundreds of thousands of divine thoughts returned one by one.
Although these pictures are incomplete and cannot play any role, and it is difficult for him to piece them together, there are still a few broken pictures that can be pieced together.
So... In the emperor's memory, one day, he remembered a person.
It was a woman named Desire. He had a vague impression that his death in his previous life had some indirect relationship with this woman named Desire.
At the same time, he had some vague judgments. It seemed that after his death in the previous life, this woman named Yu had arranged some back-up tactics on his body.
She wants to control herself.
As the years went by, this backhand never appeared when the emperor himself was normal. Until he caused the wood calamity and his body was extremely weak, the power of desire was revealed silently like a poisonous snake that had been waiting for a long time. .
Until an accident occurred on Wang Baole's side, which caused the emperor's absorption time to be extended, and it was never complete. Coupled with Luo's second arrival to try to challenge, all of these made the emperor's injuries more serious, and the hidden desire... It was also spreading quietly, seeming to have accumulated enough power to explode instantly!
The explosion of desire was transformed into the power of the seven emotions and six desires, entangled in the emperor's soul and body, corroding them, torturing them, and gradually trying to control them.
At the same time, it affected Yuanyu Daokong's subordinates, causing all the generals to burst out with desire and start a rebellion.
This is actually the reason why the seven emotions and six desires appear in Yuanyu Daokong.
Next, the emperor, influenced by desire, suppressed Yuanyu Daokong under the struggle of reason and desire. Those who were his former subordinates were tortured and ravaged by him. Even those who surrendered were cursed by him. , the reason for all this is that the emperor wants to release his desire!
If he is not released, he will sink completely.
Therefore, the third layer of the burial world appeared, where all the people he killed were buried. At the same time, those generals were also turned into batteries by him, because... to fight against desire, he needed more vitality.
As for the second world, it is a place arranged by the emperor to fight against his own desires... a garbage dump!
There is an emotional dumping ground.
He will give different desires to those who surrender to him, and let people in the second world practice their desires, in order to... let them help him share the burden!
It is equivalent to creating another source, so that one's own desires can be continuously sent into the past, giving oneself the possibility of recovery.
In fact, the emperor deliberately separated the first-level world from the second-level world. He wanted to completely seal the second-level world so that the desires within it would form a cycle of their own, so that they would not penetrate into the first-level world.
But if he retreats in the first world, he will be relatively safer.
At the same time, the seal of the second-level world is unilateral, that is to say, the desires there cannot penetrate into the first-level world, but the desires of the first-level world can be sent to the second-level world.
So in the countless years that followed, the emperor would send all his unquenchable and growing desires to the second world at a fixed time, using this method of catharsis to relieve his own pressure.
At the same time, he silently waited for the opportunity. He did not give up. He still thought that one day he could suppress his desires and prevent himself from being controlled. He still looked forward to the day when he could fuse the last remaining soul of himself outside to make himself complete.
Therefore, he was unwilling to give in, and this unwillingness was in line with his will. So in order to prevent his will from becoming stronger, the emperor took apart the will in the second world and turned it into seven emotions.
But the effect doesn't seem to be very good.
In this way, as the years went by, even if he had prepared all the ways to vent his desires, the long period of weakness made the emperor's desires gradually become more and more intense. No matter how he vented them, he could not suppress them. the rate of its growth.
This makes me feel groggy most of the time, and there is not much time to really wake up.
This made the emperor realize... that he had completely failed.
Because, in this state, unless Wang Baole actively chooses to merge and gives up everything, he will not be able to swallow up any obstacle.
And... according to the emperor's judgment, even if he used his own methods and successfully swallowed the last remaining soul, it would be difficult for him to suppress his desires as he was controlled by his desires.
That's why he said so much to Wang Baole, that's why he showed Wang Baole this memory, that's why he finally said... You're late, I failed.
He was defeated by fate and time.
The moment the door of the first level world was pushed open, the moment the law of desire of the second level world penetrated in, the emperor's place was completely hopeless.
This is also the reason why the guardian Xuan Chen asked the question three times in front of the gate.
"Have you thought it through?"
This you refers to both Wang Baole and the emperor.
Although it was the former who answered him, in Xuanchen's view, the former and the latter were the same person, so in the end, he did not block them, but got out of the way.
Wang Baole's expression was complicated, and he slowly withdrew his hand that touched the memory light spot, raised his head, and looked at the black mist all over his body that was getting thicker and thicker, even completely covering his figure, making the emperor look very blurry.
