Volume 3: The King of Waste Chapter 442: Cemetery of the Gods
“Once you put on this rotten, quasi-perfect container, you will perish along with it. Until you have no heart to maintain the container, you will rot along with it!” The Moon Lord’s voice revealed contempt mixed with pity. Even though He was suppressed by Xu Shen, He still seemed high above, looking down on all living beings.
"Have you really created the perfect container?" Xu Shen asked curiously.
The Moon Lord said coldly: "This has nothing to do with you, you don't need to know."
"Then I can only look through it myself."
Xu Shen's tone was still relaxed, his emotions not disturbed by external things, and he said softly: "Xia Tong."
In the long river of time, a figure was fished out from inside, but did not appear beside Xu Shen. Instead, he fell into the inner city under the shelter of the container. It was Xia Tong.
At this moment, Xia Tong was a little confused and didn't know why he was here.
However, beside Xu Shen who was talking to the Moon Lord, a vague figure appeared. He looked the same as Xia Tong, but this was the embodiment of his ability construction.
With the superposition of the characteristics of other abilities, the power based mainly on memory broke through the Moon Lord's divine domain like a sharp blade and entered into His level of consciousness, which was an empty and desolate starry sky.
There are only a few stars, and the rest is darkness.
This is the consciousness of the Moon Lord.
To explore the consciousness and memory of a god is an extremely arduous task. After all, the memory of a god is too long, and the structure of the consciousness level inside is too complex. The memory of ordinary life is like an assembly line, which only maintains the same horizontal plane, but the memory of a god is multi-dimensional.
But fortunately, Xu Shen is also a god. He connects the timelines together and digs out all the memory fragments of the Moon Lord hidden in each timeline, connecting and reading them one by one.
All of this is extremely complicated and takes thousands of years, but in fact, through the ability to go back in time, everything is over in an instant.
Xu Shen saw the Lord of the Void who previously supervised the world before the Moon Lord.
As the name suggests, the body is like the void.
Before the Lord of the Void, the first guardian was the Lord of the Sun, who has now chosen to return to the depths of the Sea of Ruins and fell into a deep sleep.
Through the Moon Lord's memory, Xu Shen also saw the illusion made up for him by the fourth generation Human Emperor. Coincidentally, the world in this illusion was similar to the theoretical world described in the ancient books that Xu Shen read in the inner city.
The world is like a sphere, located in the starry sky.
The environment in which people live is like Seabird City, with medium-level technology. In that world, there is no erosion by Ruin Beasts or Shells, and no supernatural powers, so people cannot come into contact with them, and no Ruin Slayers are born.
Just ordinary and normal life at all levels of society.
There are national leaders, social celebrities, and grassroots coal miners.
Xu Shen didn't know if this was some kind of coincidence, but he felt that he could understand the idea of the Fourth Human Emperor to fabricate such an illusion. Anyone who saw such a boring world like a pool of stagnant water would not think that a god could be born in it.
Or being able to touch the presence of God.
Inside, people can only believe in God and cannot even get a glimpse of God.
After exiting the Moon Lord's consciousness, Xu Shen looked at the Moon Lord in front of him. Although he had no specific facial features, God could glimpse God's emotions and read God's outline. Even if the Moon Lord had an irregular stone appearance, Xu Shen could still understand His joys, sorrows, anger and happiness. At this moment, the Moon Lord's face was full of anger and suppressed emotions. It was obvious that he had failed to maintain his consciousness, which made Him feel extremely humiliated and angry.
"Come on, let's go and see the perfect container you've been waiting for."
Xu Shen smiled and did not kill the Moon Lord. His mentality was extremely peaceful.
"What do you want to do?" Moon Lord asked coldly.
Xu Shen said: "Wake up the gods and let them get up and work."
Hearing Xu Shen's relaxed tone, Moon Lord was a little annoyed: "You'd better not disturb the gods, otherwise I will make you regret it."
"God also regrets it? Well, don't you regret saying such things to me? Aren't you afraid that I will get rid of you?" Xu Shen said with a smile.
“Even if you control a quasi-perfect container, you can’t kill me. If the fight really comes to that moment, I can give up the perfect container and control a quasi-perfect container. The other quasi-perfect containers all have my extended consciousness and can be connected at any time!” said the Moon Lord coldly.
God's calculations are beyond imagination, and He has already made various preparations for retreat.
Xu Shen knew that the consciousness He was talking about was an established belief, such as the Moonlight Cult, which was the fragment of consciousness left by the Moon Lord in this world. It was parasitic in the consciousness and soul of living beings and would come at any time if there was faith.
"Do you really think you can plunder in time in front of me?" Xu Shen asked.
Although the Moon Lord's coming is only a moment, he can make this moment eternal.
Become the other shore that the Moon Lord can never reach.
This is the ultimate control of time power.
After hearing Xu Shen's words, the world in front of the Moon Lord changed. The countless timelines he saw were all disturbed. He understood that it was Xu Shen's consciousness that was having an impact. Everything in the future would change with Xu Shen's thoughts at this moment.
God can peek into the life of mortals and can see directly to the end of that short time.
But God cannot foresee God's destiny.
Because God can go back to the past at any time, reverse time, and change everything, the future is always changing and cannot be calculated.
In other words, when one reaches the level of God, one has already transcended the boundaries of "fate".
Be able to control your own destiny.
The immortality that the gods pursue is different from fate. Inevitable destruction is the destination of everything. The process may change in thousands of ways, but the destination is predetermined.
And this process of change is destiny.
The ending is not fate, the ending is simply the ending.
For mortals, the ending is fate, simply because mortals cannot change the irreversible process, just like brake failure, crashing is fate, it is inevitable, and therefore death will occur.
But God can reverse the past and fix the brakes, or not get on the car at all and avoid this disaster.
When one reaches the level of God, he will be invulnerable to all calamities. This is mainly because God can modify the past, making calamities disappear and easily avoiding disasters.
But despite this, in the face of the end, even God will be dejected, just like a movie coming to an end. No matter how you edit the process in between, reverse the order, or even play it in reverse, it will still come to an end in the end.
It seemed that it was not the gods that perished, but this world.
Therefore, the concept of the perfect container was proposed, the eternal kingdom of God, which is more like creating an eternal world.
Yue Zhu had an unpleasant expression, knowing that Xu Shen was right.
Even if He used the power of time to reverse the time to before He met Xu Shen, to tear apart the illusion of the Fourth Human Emperor and rewrite the past, it would be meaningless because if He could do it, Xu Shen could do it too. If He fell behind by one step, He would fall behind step by step.
He can cross countless time nodes, and Xu Shen can catch up and intercept him, but this is a meaningless attempt.
It was also because of this that Xu Shen's actions at this moment made Him give up rewriting the past, which led to the existence of this scene and He was caught off guard by Xu Shen who suddenly appeared with a quasi-perfect container.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Yue Zhu had no choice but to be forced to go with Xu Shen.
"Four Emperors, you come too, let us witness the masterpiece of the gods." Xu Shen said.
The fourth generation Human Emperor was in mixed emotions. Now that things had come to this, he could only accompany Xu Shen to face it.
Xu Shen raised his hand and pushed aside the sea of ruins. The barrier was like thin paper and was easily pierced through.
Afterwards, Xu Shen stepped into the Ruins Sea. What he saw was a thousand miles of red land with a large number of Ruins Beasts roaming around. These Ruins Beasts seemed to be scattered, but in Xu Shen's perception, they were gathered in groups.
With the enhancement of this quasi-perfect container, Xu Shen's perception extended to several times the diameter of a world. For most of the beasts in the ruins, within the range of Xu Shen's sight, they would need to spend several days running at full speed to escape.
At this moment, Xu Shen was like a giant walking in the sea of ruins, and every move he made could cause unimaginable destruction.
He saw forbidden areas, secret caves, and nests in the Xuhai.
There is also a forbidden passage that hides the Crimson Door.
The Xu Sea, which was originally as mysterious as fog, now unveiled all its veils in front of Xu Shen without reservation.
Xu Shen saw the divine weapon tomb suspended above the Ruins Sea and hidden in the deeper layers. He also saw the place where the gods were sleeping in the depths of the Ruins Sea, which he had seen from afar when he had awakened before.
Cemetery of the Gods.
Xu Shen did not go directly to the Cemetery of the Gods, but came to the Tomb of Divine Soldiers first.
He raised his hand and waved it, and all the magic weapons in the Tomb of Magical Weapons were swept away in an instant and sealed in another space.
These divine weapons originally had their own tests, but in front of the gods who possessed various abilities, they could easily pass any test.
"what you up to?"
When the Moon Lord saw Xu Shen's actions, he was secretly surprised.
Xu Shen smiled and said, "To prevent those guys from waking up and causing trouble, disarm them first."
The Moon Lord was both shocked and angry. He certainly knew Xu Shen's purpose, but how could Xu Shen dare?
This is an offense to the gods!
"Do you know the location of the second generation Human Emperor?" Xu Shen asked the Four Emperors.
"Know."
The Four Emperors were also frightened by Xu Shen's actions, but the deed had already been done and could not be changed. He adjusted his emotions in a flash and said to Xu Shen: "Doing this will offend the gods, you must be mentally prepared."
"It doesn't matter." Xu Shen smiled, and suddenly thought of something, and said to the Four Emperors : "Why don't you get a perfect container to wear? In this way, the gods won't be able to do anything to us for a while."
The Four Emperors were silent upon hearing this and did not speak for a long time.
Xu Shen stared at him and immediately understood what the Four Emperors were thinking.
It turned out that he also wanted to try to step into the eternal kingdom of God and enter the perfect container...
Xu Shen sighed softly, how boring that would be.
Thinking of this, Xu Shen turned his head and looked at Maeve beside him, and the two smiled at each other.
Compared to other gods, they don't care about eternity. Instead, they think it is a curse, an extremely boring curse.
Besides, that kind of thing is impossible to do.
A true paradox, an existence with no solution.
The gods should also understand this, so Xu Shen is very curious why they are still so persistent and what makes them realize the hope of success.
Soon, under the leadership of the Four Emperors, Xu Shen saw the second generation Human Emperor nailed in the Ruins of Sea.
The body of the second generation Human Emperor was like a brown reef, standing in the sea, his body pierced by a long spear and nailed to death.
A certain rule-based power was released from the spear, continuously destroying the body of the Second Generation Human Emperor, but his own reconstruction was constantly repairing itself, forming a weak balance between the two. However, the law of the spear was more powerful, causing his body to still slightly die and decay.
The decaying power flowed out, nourishing the surrounding beasts.
Feeling the three divine powers, the Second Generation Human Emperor woke up from his half-asleep state, looked up and saw Xu Shen and the others. As for Maeve, she was hiding at a deeper level, using some covert means and did not show up. Therefore, neither the Moon Lord nor the Fourth Generation Human Emperor could sense her.
"Has that day arrived?"
The second generation Human Emperor seemed to know something. When he saw the three gods coming, he thought that the gods had resurrected.
The Four Emperors said, "I am the fourth generation Human Emperor, and this one should be considered the fifth generation. We are here to rescue you."
“Human Emperor…” A certain power suddenly burst out from the emotions of the second generation. Realizing that Xu Shen and the Four Emperors were not the original gods, he could not help but ask: “Will there be another Human Emperor born ? It seems that what I did back then was still meaningful. Interesting, interesting…”
He burst into laughter.
He knew that the Four Emperors would not deceive him, and the original gods would never pretend to be the Emperor of Man. The nobility and pride engraved in their bones would never make them think of doing so.
"We are going to awaken the gods."
Xu Shen said softly: "Let's go and witness it together and see the results of the gods."
The second generation looked at Xu Shen in surprise: "Do you know how to wake them up?"
"I am the key to awakening them, perhaps one of them." Xu Shen said.
The second generation, the Four Emperors, and the Moon Lord all looked at Xu Shen in surprise. They didn't expect that he was the future buried by the gods.
The four emperors' eyes suddenly enlightened. No wonder Xu Shen could become a god in such a desperate world.
But soon, his eyes showed vigilance again, and he said: "But you are already wearing a quasi-perfect vessel. Even if the gods succeed, you will not be able to set foot in the kingdom of God."
Xu Shen understood what he meant by this and was worried that he was being controlled by the gods to wake them up, so he wanted to use these words to dissuade him from the idea.
"If there really is a perfect container, you can just go in." Xu Shen said.
The three of them looked at Xu Shen in surprise. From Xu Shen's tone, it seemed like an attitude of pity, as if entering the Kingdom of God was an extremely wrong choice, which made people sad and pitiful.
Xu Shen did not explain. He raised his hand and suppressed the force, pulling out the spear from the second generation. Countless rules, abilities and characteristics on the spear invaded, destroying, tearing, devouring, etc., but they were all suppressed by Xu Shen with the same abilities and characteristics in an instant, and suppressed back with even stronger force.
The second generation regained his freedom, and the decay in his body stopped instantly.
Xu Shen didn't say much. He looked in the direction of the Cemetery of the Gods and strode over.
The three could only follow Xu Shen. Through the past and future that swayed in time, they could roughly see what would happen next.
Although God can change it at will, the fate we glimpse at this moment can still be used as a reference.
Not long after, Xu Shen arrived at the Cemetery of the Gods.
His gaze penetrated through numerous blockades and saw the cemetery of the gods buried in a deeper level, which other gods could not see because they did not have the key to peer into it.
