Chapter 1992: Dimensional upgrade

Views:

Hearing Merlin's description, Lin Qiye's brows furrowed more and more.

"A higher dimension... Ji Nian also said something similar at that time. It seems he also said that our world is just a dream of Azathoth?"

"You can understand it that way." Merlin nodded. "For example, when we stand under the scorching sun, the light shines on our bodies and casts our shadow on the ground. This shadow exists because of us. Once we turn around and walk under the shade of the tree, the shadow will disappear...

As for the ants on the ground, they saw this shadow and gave it a name, but is what they saw the real us

No, it's just a shadow. They can't see what we look like in the three-dimensional world through this shadow, nor can they step on this shadow to cause us any harm. To these two-dimensional ants, we are 'indescribable'."

"You mean, this darkness that engulfs the universe is the shadow cast by Azathoth... and we are just ants observing him from the ground?"

“It sounds desperate, but it’s true.”

"So, doesn't that mean we will never be able to defeat Azathoth?"

Merlin was silent for a long time. "Yes... Theoretically speaking, no one in this dimension can hurt Azathoth, and naturally cannot defeat him... Unless someone can ascend to a higher dimension."

"Upward dimension?"

"From this dimension we are in, ascending to the dimension where Azathoth's body is, a shadow can never defeat a human. The only ones who can defeat a human are... humans."

A glimmer of hope flashed in Lin Qiye's eyes.

"How can we ascend to higher dimensions?"

"… Difficult." Merlin shook his head. "The difficulty of dimensional upgrading is to make a shadow grow flesh and blood, cross the dimensional barrier, and become a true high-dimensional existence... So far, only the Holy Lord Yeland of the Western Holy Church has barely touched this threshold..."

Yelland

Lin Qiye immediately asked, "Did he succeed?"

"He barely touched it, and was still a long way from success. But even if he only took half a step to 'upgrading', it was enough for him to fight against all the gods of the Ke system, seriously injure the three pillars, and seal the rest of the gods of the Ke system on the moon..."

"So where is he going now?"

Lin Qiye knew very well that Yelande was not dead. If he was dead, Chloe would have inherited his laws and become the new Holy Lord, and would not have been trapped in the human ceiling realm for two thousand years... But since he was not dead, and he was not there when the seal of the moon was broken, then where was he

"… I don't know." Merlin sighed, "After half a step of 'upgrading', he should have had some kind of reaction with this world. Even I can't find him."

Lin Qiye fell silent.

Yelande is the being closest to upgrading his dimension now. After his disappearance, who else in this world has the hope of upgrading his dimension in a short period of time

"No... there's also him!" Lin Qiye's eyes sparkled with brilliance, and he pulled out a thread of cause and effect from the void with his backhand.

In addition to Yelande, there may be another person in this world who has reached the level of half a step of "dimensional upgrading"!

Lingbao Tianzun!

Lin Qiye clearly remembered that when the gods in heaven were about to fall into a deep sleep, Lingbao Tianzun said that he had touched the threshold of Yelande's realm... If the Eternal Heaven could return, perhaps Lingbao Tianzun would have stepped into the level of half a step "dimensional ascension"!

And this may be their last hope.

Lin Qiye's gaze followed the thread of cause and effect and extended into the void. The next moment, his body shook slightly!

He held [Unprovoked Cause] in his hand and looked into the dark depths of the universe. He opened his mouth.

"You must be joking..."

The place where the thread of cause and effect points to is exactly the darkness that engulfs the universe!

A thunderclap roared in Lin Qiye's mind. He stood there in a daze, his eyes full of disbelief...

Eternal Heaven, how could it be there?

The darkness filled with madness and disorder was like a silent giant beast, swallowing up the universe bit by bit. Looking around, there was nothing to be seen, let alone the eternal heaven that housed the sleeping gods of Daxia!

Lin Qiye didn't understand... The gods of Daxia were just sleeping, and they left the Earth only to avoid the threat of the suppressed gods of the moon. With the speed of the heaven at that time, it would take countless years to cross such a long distance and enter the darkness...

And now, only four years have passed. How did Heaven cross this distance and get in there

Are they... still alive

The moment this thought came to mind, Lin Qiye gave a positive answer.

They must be alive... otherwise this thread of cause and effect would have been broken long ago, and they are deep in Azathoth. As to whether they are still sleeping or have been contaminated and driven insane, it is unknown.

Yelande and Lingbao Tianzun, the two beings who have the greatest hope of completing the "dimensional upgrade", are currently missing, which means that no one can confront Azathoth head-on.

"Merlin, Lord... With the speed at which Azathoth is expanding, how long will it take for it to spread to Earth?" Lin Qiye said hoarsely.

Merlin thought for a moment, "Strangely enough, the Earth is located right at the center of Azathoth's engulfment of the universe... In other words, the Earth will be the last planet to be swallowed by Azathoth. At the current speed of darkness, the Earth will only have eight days left."

"eight days… "

A hint of despair emerged in Lin Qiye's eyes.

Lingbao Tianzun spent more than two thousand years in the "Reincarnation of the True Self" from the Supreme Realm to the level of half-step "Dimension Upward". It also took Yelan more than a thousand years to break through the half-step "Dimension Upward" with the help of the massive power of faith of the Western Saint Church.

Even if Lin Qiye had entered the supreme realm at this moment, it would be impossible for him to touch the threshold of half-step "dimensional upgrading" within eight days, let alone completely complete the "dimensional upgrading" and have the power to fight Azathoth head-on.

"Besides upgrading the dimension... is there really no other way to fight Azathoth?" Lin Qiye asked without giving up.

"... No, at least not within my knowledge." Merlin stroked his long beard and sighed, "I have been exploring deep space for so many years, just to find a way out for this universe, but unfortunately... I haven't found it yet."

Lin Qiye clenched his fists tightly...

He traveled such a long distance to find a way to deal with Azathoth, but he didn't expect that what he ended up with was an unsolvable dilemma.

At this moment, he finally understood why Chaos was so sure that humans could not win this war... With Azathoth around, even if the three pillars of the earth and the gods of Crypt were completely destroyed, humans still could not survive from that crazy darkness. From the beginning, the fate of humans was doomed...

etc!

Lin Qiye suddenly raised his head, as if he had thought of something.

"Jin Ji said that Chaos is the only one among the gods of the Krishna who can communicate with Azathoth... Since He is also in this universe and exists in the same dimension as us, how does He communicate with Azathoth?"
