The Lord of the Great Desolation!
The first thought that came to Ling Xiao’s mind was the Lord of Primordial Chaos.
The scene in front of him was very familiar. Ling Xiao remembered that the layout here seemed very similar to that in the Transcendence Scroll.
Ling Xiao stepped forward.
Although that figure had his back to Ling Xiao, he was emitting an unparalleled powerful aura that was eternal and immortal.
But Ling Xiao did not sense any life from that figure.
On the stone table is a chessboard.
On the chessboard, black and white pieces crisscrossed like two giant dragons, making it hard to tell who was who.
The figure was holding a white piece, which was suspended in the air without falling.
He was a middle-aged man of extraordinary elegance, with a handsome and elegant face, and he exuded a transcendent and otherworldly aura from head to toe.
"His spirit... has disappeared!"
There was a gleam of light in Ling Xiao's eyes.
Although the middle-aged man in front of him looked immortal and lifelike, there seemed to be no soul in the sea of consciousness between his eyebrows.
Moreover, it is very easy to determine whether the middle-aged man in front of you is the Lord of the Primordial World.
Ling Xiao's body was shining with light, activating the fate-defying technique!
And the middle-aged man in front of him actually emitted the same light, which was the same aura of the art of defying fate.
"There's no doubt about it, this person is the Lord of Primordial Desolation!"
Ling Xiao sighed softly.
He found the Lord of the Primordial World, but he did not expect that the Lord of the Primordial World in front of him seemed to have lost all vitality and even his soul had disappeared.
"The Lord of the Great Desolation? He doesn't look like he has experienced a great war, but rather is playing chess in a leisurely manner. But how could his soul disappear?"
The Qing Emperor's eyes were filled with shock.
“That’s hard to say!”
Ling Xiao shook his head.
The Lord of the Great Desolation had probably arrived in the Ruins Realm one hundred and eight epochs ago. No one knew what had happened during this long period of time.
Buzz!
There was a hazy light inside the body of the Lord of the Great Desolation. A ball of light seemed to be pulled by the art of defying fate. It flew out of the Lord of the Great Desolation's body, appeared in mid-air, and turned into a transparent figure.
"Hello, young man from the ancient world of prehistoric times. I am the Lord of the prehistoric times!"
That figure seemed to be the remnant left by the Lord of the Primordial World, with a deep and vicissitudes gaze, falling on Ling Xiao and Qing Di.
"Master of the Great Desolation? Are you still conscious and able to talk to me?"
Ling Xiao's eyes flashed and he asked.
"This is a remnant of my thoughts, so I don't know who you are! But you have inherited my Fate-Defying Technique, so you can be considered my disciple. I know you came for the Reincarnation Seed, so I left this remnant of my thoughts to remind you!"
Cannian said slowly.
What disappointed Ling Xiao was that this remnant thought had no independent consciousness and was just there to leave some message for Ling Xiao.
"Don't go looking for the reincarnation seeds, don't go!"
The voice of regret suddenly became louder, as if someone had seen something extremely terrifying, and his eyes became extremely solemn.
"What?!"
Ling Xiao and Qing Di were both shocked. They never thought that the Lord of Primordial Desolation would say such words.
Don’t go looking for the seeds of reincarnation
Why is this
“Young disciple, since you have inherited my Fate-Defying Technique and have come here, I think you should have successfully achieved transcendence! You wanted to find the Reincarnation Seed to transcend the ancient world, but you are too late!”
Regretfully continued.
"The Samsara Seed was already tainted with bad luck one hundred and eight epochs ago. Even though I tried to use up all my energy to expel the bad luck and refine the Samsara Seed, I still failed in the end! My soul was taken away by the Samsara Seed and will be damned forever!"
"So, my younger disciple, you should go back! This is a world destined to be abandoned. The seeds of reincarnation will never appear. Even if they do appear, they will only bring destruction, killing and despair!"
"If you believe me, leave the Ruins Realm immediately and return to the Primordial Ancient Realm! If you insist on doing it your own way, I'm afraid that in the end the entire Primordial Ancient Realm will be buried with you. That's all I have to say, remember this!"
After he finished speaking these regretful words, they instantly exploded in the void, turned into a dazzling light, and disappeared between heaven and earth.
"The seeds of reincarnation are tainted with ominous things? Will they bring destruction, killing, and despair?"
There was a gleam of light in Ling Xiao's eyes, and his whole body was shaking.
He never thought that after finding the Lord of Primordial Chaos, he would discover such an incredible secret.
“Ling Xiao, this should be the trace left by the reincarnation seed. There is still a faint smell of reincarnation!”
The Green Emperor walked to the other side of the stone table, where there was a lotus platform made of chaos stone. It looked ancient and mysterious, with a groove in the middle.
Qingdi pointed at the groove and said.
Ling Xiao walked over and found that the groove was somewhat dark, with a layer of black mist lingering on it, which looked somewhat similar to a black hole.
"So, the Lord of the Great Desolation did obtain the Samsara Seed back then! But why did he say that the Samsara Seed was tainted with an ominous sign? Qingdi, what do you think?"
There was a gleam of light in Ling Xiao's eyes, and he spoke softly.
If Ling Xiao really listened to the words of the Lord of Primordial Desolation, he should leave the Ruins Realm immediately and return to the Primordial Ancient Realm.
But Ling Xiao instinctively felt that something was wrong.
The Green Emperor frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said slowly: "If what that remnant said is true, it means that one hundred and eight epochs ago, although the Lord of the Great Desolation obtained the Samsara Seed, he found that the Samsara Seed had undergone some changes, and even the Lord of the Great Desolation could not control this change!"
"Although the Lord of the Great Desolation tried his best to expel the unknown, he failed in the end, and his soul disappeared, and even sank forever! What changes happened to the reincarnation seed?"
The Lord of the Great Desolation is a transcendent being. Even Ling Xiao cannot kill the soul of a transcendent being silently. Ling Xiao believes that no one in the entire world can do it.
But the seeds of reincarnation produced by the World Tree actually did it.
This has to make people suspicious.
"It's unclear what the reincarnation seed is contaminated with. I'm afraid this change is related to the World Tree! Unfortunately, it didn't make it clear. If we want to find out completely, I'm afraid we have to find the World Tree! Qingdi, does the World Tree have self-awareness?"
Ling Xiao looked at Qingdi and asked.
"should not!"
The Green Emperor thought for a moment and said slowly: "The World Tree is the supreme divine object evolved from the power of the return of all worlds and the vitality of billions of lives. Although it is said to connect all worlds, it is suppressed by the laws of the Great Dao and cannot give birth to self-awareness!"
"Moreover, the World Tree has existed here for countless years. If it really had self-awareness, it would have left long ago!"
"If the World Tree did not develop self-awareness, would the Samsara Seeds develop self-awareness?"
There was a gleam of light in Ling Xiao's eyes, and he asked the key point.
"This... is hard to say!"
The Qing Emperor thought for a moment and replied.
He understood Ling Xiao's consciousness. If it was really the reincarnation species that had developed self-awareness, it would naturally be unwilling to be refined by the Lord of the Primordial World, and would probably retaliate.
But a reincarnation seed can annihilate the soul of the Lord of the Primordial World. This is a little too terrifying.
"If we want to solve the mystery, it seems we still have to find the reincarnation seed!"
Ling Xiao said slowly.
"But the Lord of the Great Desolation has already reminded you not to look for the seeds of reincarnation. Are you really not going to consider it again?"
The Qing Emperor asked.
"If we return to the ancient world now, I'm afraid there will be no hope of finding the reincarnation seeds! Moreover, when the infinite calamity comes, the ancient world and all living things will be reduced to ashes. This is not what I want to see!"
There was a hint of determination in Ling Xiao's eyes.
Although the Lord of Primordial Chaos had warned him, Ling Xiao still felt that he could not return like this.
The Qing Emperor was silent for a while.
He understood what Ling Xiao meant, but he also admired Ling Xiao immensely for it.
After all, Ling Xiao has already achieved transcendence, so even if the ancient world is destroyed, he will not be in any danger. However, Ling Xiao is willing to take the risk for the sake of transcendence.
The Green Emperor seemed to have made an important decision. He suddenly raised his head, looked at Ling Xiao seriously and said, "Ling Xiao, maybe there is a place that can help you solve your doubts!"
"Where?"
Ling Xiao was a little curious.
"The heart of the world tree!"
Qingdi said seriously.
"The heart of the World Tree? Doesn't the World Tree have no self-awareness?"
Ling Xiao's whole body trembled slightly.
"I don't know how to explain it to you. The World Tree does not have self-awareness, but it does have a heart! And I was born in the heart of the World Tree. It is an extremely strange and mysterious place. I believe that the seeds of reincarnation should also be born there. You may be able to find the answer when you get there!"
The Qing Emperor said slowly.
"How do I get to the heart of the World Tree?"
Ling Xiao asked.
"First, find the trunk of the World Tree. There is the bridge between heaven and earth. Once I get there, I will know how to get to the heart of the World Tree!"
Qingdi explained.
"In that case, let's go!"
Ling Xiao nodded.
After taking a look at this extremely quiet valley and then at the body of the Lord of Primordial Chaos, Ling Xiao's eyes were filled with a hint of admiration.
He waved his sleeves, and suddenly a vast and powerful force came and directly took away the entire valley and the body of the Lord of the Primordial World.
Although the soul of the Lord of Primordial Chaos has disappeared, his body should not stay here.
He should return to the ancient world.
Should, go home!
Whizzing!
Ling Xiao and Qing Di soared into the sky together.
This vast continent is just a leaf of the world tree. God knows how many vast and boundless continents exist in this strange space.
If you want to reach the trunk of the World Tree, you must first travel through endless continents.
Boom!
In the void, gusts of strong winds and destructive thunders intertwined, like a huge barrier, covering the continents.
Ling Xiao used his supreme magical powers to break through numerous barriers, flew across one continent after another, and flew towards the mysterious and majestic world tree in the distance!
