"Upgrading?" Lingbao Tianzun shook his head. "Jialan and I are still a little short of upgrading. Even if we leave here, we can't get rid of the gray layer..."
Yelande stared at the hand of destruction that was gathering again, as if he was thinking about something.
After a moment, he seemed to have made up his mind and spoke slowly:
"I can help you upgrade your dimension."
Hearing these words, Lingbao Tianzun and Jialan were both startled and turned to look at him.
"In the original fifth universe, I left a backup plan... and this backup plan is right here." Yelande stretched out his hand and pointed to the heaven under his feet.
Lingbao Tianzun seemed to have thought of something, his eyes gradually lit up, and he waved his hand in the void, and an object shaped like a cabinet automatically flew into his hand!
"You mean... the Ark of the Covenant?"
"In the original fifth universe, after I was promoted half a step to 'upgrading dimension', I discovered the strangeness of the universe, so I began to try to contact the higher-dimensional world, trying to find a way out... Then, I took the risk and concluded a [Holy Covenant] with the higher-dimensional world."
"Conclude a [Holy Covenant] with a higher-dimensional world?" Galan asked in surprise, "Is this feasible?"
"I don't know... Although I finally succeeded in concluding the [Holy Covenant], the existence of the higher-dimensional world is theoretically beyond my ability. Even if I activate the [Holy Covenant], I don't know if it will respond to me, and I don't know if there will be any danger in the process." Yelande's face was extremely serious.
“Originally, after the destruction of the original fifth universe, I was planning to forcefully use this [Holy Covenant] and try to directly upgrade from the ‘half-step’ dimension to enter the higher-dimensional world... But before I did that, I discovered the existence of Lin Qiye.
He actually sealed Azathoth into the hospital by himself, so I changed this risky plan and tried to help him gain an advantage and ascend to a higher dimension more safely through the infinite dream cycle. "
Yelande's eyes fell on the mysterious cabinet. With a light flick of his fingertips, the seal on the cabinet's surface automatically unraveled, and a piece of parchment floated out of it.
Lingbao Tianzun saw this and smiled helplessly:
"No wonder we couldn't open the Ark of the Covenant after we got it... So you left the Covenant on it too?"
"This is something important that involves the higher-dimensional world, so it must be stored properly." Yelande took out the parchment and handed it to Lingbao Tianzun and Jialan. "Let me make it clear in advance that I cannot guarantee the validity of this covenant, nor can I guarantee your safety during the process... It's up to you to decide whether to take the risk or not."
"You're not going?"
“The power in my body is only enough to send you there… This is when you are all just a little bit away from taking the initiative to advance. If I am added, this covenant will most likely be scrapped… Moreover, the main purpose of going to the higher-dimensional world is to suppress Azathoth and awaken Lin Qiye’s will. You two have the deepest feelings for him, and if you awaken him, the chances of success will be greater.”
Lingbao Tianzun and Galan looked at each other and nodded without hesitation.
"want!"
Lin Qiye had been alone in billions of dream cycles. Now that they had finally found a way to get to him, how could they possibly retreat
Yelande nodded, and a halo of light spread out from the parchment, wrapping up the figures of Lingbao Tianzun and Galan. At the same time, the power of faith in Yelande's body began to plummet!
"If you can meet Lin Qiye, remember to say hello to him for me."
As soon as the words fell, the halo on the parchment became extremely bright and directly broke through the barrier of the universe and disappeared without a trace!
…
Asylum of the Gods.
Boom! !
Outside the corridor of the ward, the little boy was thrown out from the second floor and fell heavily on the grass like a meteorite!
"Cough cough cough..." The little boy, covered in blood, was trying hard to get up from the ground. The [Chaos] shrouded in endless red jumped in front of him and knocked him away again!
At this moment, Lin Qiye's consciousness had almost no ability to fight back when facing the consciousness of Azathoth under the bonus of red light, and could only defend passively.
The little boy lay in a pool of blood, looking at the figure walking slowly towards him like a wild beast, muttering to himself:
"The most primitive will to kill... No wonder he didn't say a word."
boom!!
[Chaos] stepped on the little boy's head and pinned him to the ground. Endless murderous intent poured out from his empty eyes.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of a door opening on the second floor of the ward, and two figures rushed out quickly!
"Successful?!" Galan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and a glimmer of light finally appeared in his tired eyes.
After using the [Holy Covenant], Galan and Lingbao Tianzun were caught in a terrifying dimensional storm. Fortunately, both of them are now powerful people who are only a step away from breaking through to the next dimension, and they managed to force their way through with their own strength.
"We've made it through." Lingbao Tianzun said decisively, "Hurry up and find Azathoth's real body!"
The two men quickly dispersed above the Gods Mental Hospital, but neither of them looked at the courtyard, as if in their eyes, neither Chaos nor the little boy existed.
Lingbao Tianzun flew across the leaden sky, and his eyes fixed when he saw the giant core of flesh and blood near the hospital.
"At this!!"
Azathoth now is like a flesh and blood monster that has fallen into a state of madness, unconsciously spitting red light around. This strange red light contains a polluting force that is thousands of times more terrifying than the [Black Goat], and is swallowing up the gray-black sky bit by bit.
Jia Lan came over quickly, and seeing this crazy giant core of flesh and blood, he frowned and said:
"Is this Azathoth?"
"Yes, but it's only his body. His consciousness should still be fighting with Nanaya."
"No consciousness? Then who is controlling Him now?"
Lingbao Tianzun looked at Azathoth and said in a deep voice, "It should be Azathoth's primitive instinct... In these hundreds of millions of cycles, Qiye has been assimilating his power bit by bit. When this assimilation exceeds a certain limit, it causes his instinctive resistance and counterattack..."
"The primitive instincts have been forced out?" Jia Lan thought, "Does that mean... Qiye is actually almost successful?"
"It is highly likely that this is the case, but this instinctive counterattack is the most terrifying. Not only did it directly awaken the remaining consciousness of Azathoth, but it also trapped Qiye's consciousness in a dream cycle that has not yet ended... If Qiye does not wake up, not only will the assimilated powers gradually return to Azathoth, but he himself may be directly wiped out in the dream world."
Lingbao Tianzun understood everything and immediately opened the Hunyuan Wuji Cave and rushed towards the violent Azathoth!
"No matter what, we must suppress the power of Azathoth first... Only if we hold back one of Azathoth's fists, Qiye will be able to wake up from the dream!"
