Stronger with Crimson Modifier

Chapter 567 - 404: The Path Forward (Part 1)

This world itself was formed from the body of a True God Realm Mirage Dragon.

Hu Qi looked at the silver Mirage Dragon before him.

Its gaze was profound, but it lacked any trace of liveliness, possessing only a slightly dull consciousness.

The original True God Realm Mirage Dragon was already dead.

This one before him...

It was merely a vague consciousness, born from the corpse of the dead Mirage Dragon over a long period of time.

Regarding this...

He had learned it after devouring Zalasos’s memories.

If not for this fact...

Even the remnant soul of a True God would have been far beyond what Zalasos could have contended with.

Let alone suppressing it and sealing it within this Immortal Court.

Even with only a wisp of a remnant soul, the power a True God could display far surpassed that of an Apostle Level Peak.

The Life Levels of the two were simply not in the same dimension.

’However, to be able to kill a True God... could it have been the work of another True God?’

Hu Qi’s thoughts turned to other matters.

At the True God Level, one had already escaped the shackles of time.

The problem of one’s Lifespan running out simply didn’t exist.

But this didn’t mean they couldn’t be killed.

For example, in the inherited memories he had obtained from the Three-Eyed Primordial Serpent, that True God had also perished, which indirectly led to the subsequent eradication of the Three-Eyed Primordial Serpent race from the Spirit Realm.

And the one responsible for all of this was likely that so-called White King.

The same must be true for the True God Realm Mirage Dragon before him.

However, to kill a True God Realm existence, the assailant’s Cultivation would have to be at the True God Realm at a minimum.

At this sight...

Hu Qi’s complacency from having broken through to the True God Realm was shaken.

True Gods were strong, but they were not invincible or immortal.

Although they were very difficult to kill, there was still a risk of perishing.

Of course, Hu Qi didn’t need to worry too much. He was different from other True Gods.

Thanks to his awakened Taiyu Serpent Bloodline Talent: the Eternal Ring.

At most, he could be weakened, but he could never be truly killed.

However, this was not absolute.

As his strength grew, his understanding of powerful existences became increasingly clear.

He couldn’t rule out the possibility of some bizarre and powerful method capable of suppressing his Eternal Ring Talent.

Or if an opponent couldn’t kill him, they might seal him away permanently.

At this moment...

The Mirage Dragon, the embodiment of the world’s will, had clearly noticed Hu Qi’s presence.

But after sensing the aura of a True God on Hu Qi, it only let out a few low whimpers.

It showed no hostility toward Hu Qi.

Seeing this...

Hu Qi thought for a moment.

He extended his hand, palm open.

The next moment...

A ball of silver light appeared in his hand.

At a glance, countless lines flowed across its surface, as if they could form any shape.

It was the Taichu Demon Refining Talisman.

With a thought from Hu Qi...

The Rune-like lines on it receded.

A soft silver glow appeared.

This thing was none other than the Celestial Mandate of the Demon Race, which Zalasos, the Fate Weaver, had separated and stripped away.

It was also a part of this world’s origin.

Because he couldn’t destroy it, Zalasos had banished it.

Now, freed from its restraints...

It flew straight toward the Mirage Dragon.

The Mirage Dragon didn’t hesitate.

It opened its mouth and swallowed it in a single gulp.

In an instant...

A glimmer of spiritual light returned to the Mirage Dragon’s eyes.

Then, the Mirage Dragon, the embodiment of the world’s will, glanced at Hu Qi.

It let out a low hiss.

Its body swayed and it charged straight at Hu Qi.

The next second, the entire Mirage Dragon plunged into Hu Qi’s body.

In an instant...

Hu Qi could clearly perceive his newfound control over this world.

This realm felt as if it had become a part of his body, something he could control freely.

The will of this world had directly acknowledged him as its master, surrendering all of its authority.

Hu Qi thought for a moment and understood the reason.

He was a member of this world’s Demon Race who had achieved Ascension to Immortality, killed Zalasos, and returned the Demon Race’s Celestial Mandate.

In the parlance of fate...

The Cangzhou Realm itself owed him a great karmic debt.

Of course...

That alone...

Was not enough to make the Mirage Dragon act this way.

The most important factor was Hu Qi’s current strength.

A True God.

Even if it wanted to resist, it was powerless.

The world’s will itself had no self-awareness or selfish desires; everything it did was to align with the world’s own developmental path.

Under the current circumstances...

The most rational and optimal choice to preserve the Cangzhou Realm was to hand over everything and acknowledge Hu Qi as its master.

However, before Hu Qi could even begin to savor this feeling...

A flood of memories poured into his mind like a tide.

These memories included the various past events of the Cangzhou Realm, as well as partial memory fragments from the original True God Level Mirage Dragon’s body.

As a True God, the Mirage Dragon had long since transcended the shackles of time and had lived for an unknown age.

The vastness of its memories was terrifying.

Although the remaining memories were merely the tip of the iceberg, the amount of information they contained was still suffocatingly immense.

If an Apostle Level being were to face such a massive influx of memories, they would likely be overwhelmed, perhaps even losing their sense of self.

This was no exaggeration.

Any living being’s sense of self is, in essence, constructed from past memories.

Suddenly accepting an excessive amount of foreign memories could very well cause one to lose their way in the torrent of information, falling into a state of Chaos regarding their own identity.

However, for the current Hu Qi, this was hardly a concern.

It was just that these memories were too fragmented and required some time to sort through.

At the same time, he could also take this opportunity to stabilize the power that had surged after his advancement to the True God Realm.
