Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 305 Please enter the urn
In the God-forsaken land, inside the Giant King’s residence.

Yu Jin slowly stretched out his hand and grabbed the "blasphemous slate" floating in the air.

And those almost invisible "illusory lights" were already covered with sparks.

The firelight was not bright, but it had already merged with the blasphemous slate, but the blasphemous slate still had not been completely "purified".

The so-called "purification" is actually to use the "first fire" to cover the "original" traces on the "blasphemous stone slab", so that this "blasphemous stone slab" can be transformed from the inside out into the shape of the "first fire".

But Yu Jin did not do so. He used the First Fire to cover most of the traces belonging to the Original, but still left a small part. This also means that for the Original, He can completely use the backdoor that Yu Jin "accidentally" left behind to regain control of this "blasphemous slate".

The reason why Yu Jin chose to leave a backdoor for the Original even though he knew the consequences was not because of a momentary oversight.

After all, if he really purified the first 'blasphemous slate' completely, although it could completely cover up the traces of 'Origin', it also meant that the 'blasphemous slate' would no longer be able to call upon the power of the 'Chaos Sea'!

After all, the reason why the Blasphemy Slate can call upon the power of the Chaos Sea is because the Blasphemy Slate and the Chaos Sea have the same essence. Once either party loses this "essence", the connection between them will naturally be cut off.

But on the other hand, the completely "purified" "blasphemous slate" will certainly lose the ability to connect to the "Sea of ​​Chaos", but there are pros and cons. Since the "blasphemous slate" has become the shape of the "First Fire", it can also call on the power of the "First Fire" to a certain extent.

But a 'blasphemous slate' that cannot call upon the 'Chaos Sea' is obviously not what the True Creator wants. After all, the Chaos Sea is at risk of being revived by the 'Origin', but it can also help the True Creator become the Old One.

On the other hand, although the essence of the First Fire is no less than that of the Original Fire, it is unable to do this. After all, the power systems of both sides are different.

Therefore, the current state of the 'Profane Slate' is actually the best.

The backdoor left behind can prevent the 'Profane Slate' from losing its connection with the 'Chaos Sea', and the majority of it that has been transformed by the 'First Fire' can ensure that even if the 'Profane Slate' is not in Yu Jin's hands, he can still own the 'Profane Slate'.

Ember memorized all the potion recipes on the profane slate and seemed to have gained some understanding.

The first 'blasphemous slate' did not record 'Sequence 0', but it was enough for Ember.

The potion formula for the Fool's Path can be handed over to Klein after leaving the God-Forsaken Land.

As for the potion formula for the 'gate' path, it is naturally for Ember himself to use.

After all, if we only talk about Sequence, Ember is just an ordinary Sequence 5 Traveler. Although He has no special need for the extraordinary ability of the Gate, it is necessary to become a Sequence 0 of the Gate.

Because no matter what Ember's subjective attitude is, he has been inevitably involved in the war with "Original".

If he wants to win this war, there is only one way to go -

In order to destroy the original, one must first become the original.

Just as he had done before—

In order to control the First Fire, he must first become the 'First Fire' and must become a part of the 'First Fire' by 'transmitting fire'.

And it turns out that Embers succeeded, just not completely.

He successfully became a part of the 'First Fire' and even overwhelmed the 'First Fire Will' to gain control of the 'First Fire'.

But unfortunately, the 'First Fire Will' is not so easy to destroy.

Although He had lost most of His power, He forcibly separated from the concept of 'First Fire' at the last moment!
This determination, no less than that of a gecko cutting off its tail to survive, allowed Him to survive successfully. And even though it had been separated, its essence as the "First Fire Will" was still there, but it no longer had the dominance of the "First Fire".

So just like Adam now, the 'First Fire Will' is always craving for fusion - only by 'merging' with the embers again can He regain control of the First Fire. If the 'First Fire' succeeds, then the embers will become slaves controlled by the 'First Fire' like countless fire kings before!

But unfortunately, the 'First Fire Will' is also aware that it is now in a weak position.

He, who had been forced to fight for his life, was completely unable to confront the embers that controlled the "First Fire". Therefore, He even cooperated with Adam in order to achieve this goal and complete the fusion He wanted.

And relying on the connection between Him and the First Flame, although He cannot gain control of the First Flame's power, He has been plotting in secret, indirectly influencing the behavior of the Embers in a covert way.

For example, let Yu Jin divide the originally unified power into nine royal souls and distribute them to other people.

Another example is suppressing Embers' memories of the past.

Of course, these are all in the past.

In the final analysis, the reason why the "First Fire Will" did all this was because He did not have the ability to confront the Embers head-on and could only do some small tricks.

But conversely, the embers can also influence the 'First Fire Will' through the 'First Fire' -

For example, based on the desire of the First Flame for the King's Soul, the will of the First Flame was suppressed, causing Him to fall into a cycle.

Without external help, He might never be able to escape.

For Yu Jin, he is now very confident that he can completely destroy the "First Fire Will", but this alone is far from enough.

The fusion of the King's Soul and the Source Essence was inevitable, and this would inevitably lead to a full-scale counterattack from the Origin. As an 'outsider', Ember could not completely control the Source Essence - the King's Soul's erosion of the 'Source Castle' had completely reached a stalemate, which was the best proof of this.

Therefore, the ember must first become "original" before it can completely control the source material.

In other words, he had to find a way to make the 'Origin' 'awaken' in his body.

But this is not possible.

After all, the potions or extraordinary properties that Yu Jin had taken had been completely purified by the ‘First Fire’, and there was no soil for the ‘Origin’ to revive in his body.

The solution that Yu Jin came up with was also very simple and crude -

Since there is no soil, let's find a way to create soil for the origin.

The higher the sequence, the greater the chance of primordial recovery.

Because reviving in a higher-Sequence person would help the Original to better recover authority. And a Sequence 0 True God would undoubtedly be the first choice for the Original to be revived, so Yu Jin had to find a way to become a Sequence 0 first.

Otherwise, unless the original eye is blind, it will choose to revive in a Sequence 5 Beyonder.

Sudden.

Yu Jin looked to the right as if he sensed something. Outside the window were diffuse orange-red clouds and the gently surging deep blue sea.

Everything froze in the dusk, there was no shadow or sun, as if everything was normal.

Available in the next second.

A huge figure 'fell from the sky'!
boom!
With a huge roar, the tall figure fell into the Giant King's Court and hit a tall tower hard.

The violent collision completely destroyed the tower, and the smoke and dust almost covered the sky, but it still couldn't hide the full view of the figure -

That's a giant.

A man who was several dozen meters tall, his originally grey-blue skin had turned dark blue, and his entire body was covered with traces of decay and pus. It was almost impossible to find a piece of intact skin on him! His lifeless, sunken eyes showed that he seemed to have already lost his life.

Snapped!
The giant slowly climbed up from the collapsed building, and gray-yellow gas emanated from his body, interweaving into a large patch of "smog" in the air.

"Lord Bradl?"

In the hall outside the Giant King's residence, Groselle stood in front of the railing with a look of disbelief on his face.

Because the rotten giant was the youngest son of the Giant King Ormir, who was once the god of honor of the giant clan!

But now, this god has become a walking corpse.

Even the 'smog' produced during its walking was continuously polluting every building in the Giant King's Court. The gray-yellow cursed fog could even corrode the buildings in the Giant King's Court!
If this continues, the entire Giant King's Court will be destroyed!
Groselle's eyes were filled with sadness.

He thought Milgungen's experience was tragic enough, but he never expected that as a former god, Bradl's fate was even more miserable. Even though he had been dead for thousands of years, he was still being manipulated to destroy his former home!
"I'm sorry, Lord Bradl, but I have to stop you!"

Groselle looked at the tall giant who was unconsciously destroying all the buildings in front of him, took a deep breath, and his eyes gradually became firm.

Even though this place has long since fallen into decline, even though the giants have disappeared in the long river of history.

But this is still his home!
He would not allow anyone to destroy his home, not even the god he once believed in!
"and many more."

Yu Jin, who came out of the Giant King's residence, called out to Groselle, who was about to jump off the balcony. In the giant's puzzled gaze, he threw a strangely shaped ancient sword to him:

"use this."

Snapped!
Groselle subconsciously caught the sword, and a strange feeling surged in his heart.

The 'knowledge' about this sword also inexplicably emerged in his mind.

【Storm Binder】

[A great sword nicknamed 'Giant Slayer'.

The broken blade still retains the power of a storm.

It is said that it can knock giants to the ground. 】

Along with the emerging knowledge, a voice also sounded in his ears:

“Only a storm can knock down a tree.”

Groselle was silent for a while, then said in a muffled voice:

"Thank you, I'll pay you back."

He immediately jumped off the balcony, blocking the giant that was wreaking havoc, and raised the Storm Controller in his hand with a determined look.

Even though he had never used this weapon, the invisible 'knowledge' had already told him how to use the sword.
-
At the same time, in the dream world of the God War Ruins, in front of the projection of the Giant King’s residence.

Amon, wearing a pointed hat and a classical black robe, sat on the tall gray-white railing, with his back to the orange-red road that separated the sea of ​​clouds. He looked leisurely at the gray-blue gate covered with golden nails, not knowing how long he had been waiting.

Suddenly, He adjusted the monocle on his right eye, and said in a slightly surprised tone:
"It's actually him?"

"Sure enough, I was right not to go there in person."

“Although it’s not the main body, it would still give me a headache if I lost too many Beyonder characteristics.”

Amon smiled and talked to himself, his eyes narrowed slightly.
If it was anyone else, even if it was the True Creation himself, he would have a chance to steal the Blasphemous Slate.

But Embers is an exception. Not to mention stealing the blasphemous slate, if he really appears in front of the other party, I'm afraid even his real body's location will be exposed.

So even He had to give up.

Amon shook his head with some regret, but the regret was not that he had no chance to steal the 'blasphemous slate'.

After all, although the Blasphemous Slate was important, it was just that to Him. After all, it was not His corresponding source substance, and could not directly help Him. At most, it could only be used as a bargaining chip to trade with others.

What He regretted was that He could not appear in front of the embers.

For Amon, this existence that once briefly left a trace in history made Him extremely curious.

I am curious about where the other party came from and what source it represents.

But unfortunately, even though He had mastered a lot of ancient history before the First Age, He was still unable to find the identity corresponding to the Ashes.

But judging from his father's attitude, he obviously knew a lot about the Embers.

If that is the case, then why did the other party fail to leave any trace in history?

Amon thought thoughtfully, this question may only be answered by the True Creation and the embers themselves.

But unfortunately, neither of them seemed to welcome Him, and probably would not answer His questions.

The doubts in His heart may never be answered.

"But not necessarily."

Amon raised his eyebrows slightly, because He suddenly thought of someone——

His paranoid brother might know more than him.

To be honest, even until now, He didn't know much about that paranoid, even though they were brothers.

His father did not trust them, at least not compared to the other angel kings.

As His sons, they are less trusted.

Although it turned out that His father had trusted the wrong person, He could understand why His father did so.

So just like His Father, He did not trust the bigot, and Adam did not trust Him.

However, Adam would not refuse to answer His question. After all, they had worked closely together many times over the past thousands of years.

The corners of Amon's mouth curled up slightly, and his figure softened and lost its reality, flowing into the door like light.
