Collapse, the beginning will avoid 500 years of detours

So, how do you plan to gain power?

The future Otto finally obtained the power of a pseudo-god through some planning, but the current Otto wanted to obtain the power of the first level of the End, even when a Ruler of the End was watching him covetously, which was a bit unrealistic.

However, Xukong Wanzang wanted to see how far Otto in front of him could go.

"Well....."

The newly resurrected Otto has no idea how to gain power.

But with the target group, there will naturally be a path under your feet when moving towards the target.

and so.

Otto turned and left, his wet hair dried by the wind. With dry hair, Otto returned to the bedroom and lay on the luxurious bed.

The bed was so soft that he couldn't help but roll around.

If Kiana were here, she would probably be very happy.

But Otto just rolled over and closed his eyes. Even though he had just woken up not long ago, he could still feel mentally exhausted.

Up to this point, Otto had never slept a single night.

And now he wanted to sleep until he woke up naturally, since it was obviously not time to sleep.

After dying once, Otto no longer felt the same sense of urgency as before. He recalled what happened in Siberia and soon fell into a deep sleep.

When I regained consciousness, it was already dark outside.

After a good night's sleep, Otto felt much more energetic and did not have any strange dreams. He then contacted his secretary and told her that he had been resurrected at the headquarters and that Siberia no longer needed to be taken care of.

Otto's secretary was called Amber. He had only met her twice before. The other party didn't seem to notice that something was wrong with him and always looked very busy.

I don’t know what I’m busy with.

The Bishop of Destiny, who did nothing, stretched lazily without any effort. After washing up, Otto made himself a cup of tea.

Drinking the somewhat bitter tea, Otto thought it would be nice if Rita could come and serve him.

But now Otto is not a newbie who knows nothing, so he naturally will not let a Valkyrie with a bright future serve him tea and water.

Sitting in front of the computer, Otto crossed his legs on the chair and began to study ways to become stronger.

In Destiny, Valkyries are undoubtedly the backbone. Their strength comes from their adaptability to Honkai energy and stigmata. With just a little training, they can reach a level that normal male humans cannot reach in their lifetime.

Even if you don't have stigmata, you can still get artificial stigmata through artificial stigmata surgery.

Jizi is one of them.

Otto's current body of flesh and blood has no stigmata, and he does not plan to undergo surgery to create artificial stigmata, because imperfect artificial stigmata will erode the flesh, and frequent use of power will shorten his lifespan.

[You don't need to worry about your body being damaged. Your future self has a lot of medical points. As long as you don't die instantly, destiny will always find a way to save you, the bishop.]

【And at worst, I can just change my body. 】

Xukong Wanzang smiled and said that to some extent, Tianming's medical level even surpassed that of the previous era.

But Otto still did not consider artificial stigmata surgery as an option.

Because if he went back five hundred years, who would perform the artificial stigmata surgery on him?

Now Otto is no longer afraid of going back to the past. As long as he can find a way to become stronger, he can become stronger little by little in the past, and then live for another five hundred years and arrive in this era again.

Therefore, external objects like the Valkyrie Armor were directly excluded by Otto.

[Actually, if you want to become stronger, there is a very direct way. ]

【That is to become a Herrscher.】

The void is full of myriad hidden things.

[You, in the future, have also handled the power of a Herrscher, so there's no doubt you have the potential to become one. After all, even the smallest of the World Serpent can become a Herrscher. Aside from the End, a Herrscher isn't as valuable as you think.]

Become a Herrscher?

Otto frowned.

Wouldn't that mean I have to have an extra Herrscher personality? I already have a Void Bankao in my head which is quite annoying.

But Otto had a question.

"What about Xinyan?"

Otto remembered that Xukong Wanzang mentioned it.

【That's Kiana from the future. 】

Xukong Wanzang knew that Otto could easily guess the general idea, so he did not hide it.

[The future Kiana will integrate the power of multiple Herrscher cores and become the Herrscher of Fire and Flame, and the Herrscher of Fire and Flame once killed the future you.]

[But now it seems that something happened to her after she killed you, and she became the Herrscher of the End.]

Multiple Herrscher cores?

The second collapse of Sirin was caused by multiple Herrscher cores.

And Otto couldn't help but guess.

"Could it be that if we gather all the Herrscher cores, we can possess the power of the Herrscher of the End?"

[Who knows? Why don’t you go ask now? ]

Otto naturally wouldn't run up to Kiana and ask this question, but when he thought about how he had just called Kiana "Herrserker" for fun, and it turned out to be a prophecy, Otto couldn't help but smile.

But is the power of the Herrscher so easy to obtain?

Furthermore, if I could go back in time, where would I get the power of the Herrscher...

Otto narrowed his eyes, as if he had thought of something, and quickly looked up a piece of history he had read.

Kallen Kaslana, the Saint of Destiny, once stole the secret treasure of Destiny.

This was the first reason why Kallen was executed.

Otto vaguely remembered that his father seemed to have mentioned this secret treasure, saying that it might contain the power of immortality. His eldest brother took it and studied it for several days, but he found nothing.

It's not a very important thing, but why would it become the first reason for executing Kallen?

Could it be that someone has unlocked the secret of the secret treasure? Has this made the secret treasure even more important?

Yo.

When Xu Kong Wan Zang saw Otto investigating his colleague, he guessed what Otto wanted to do.

[This thing contains the power of the Herrscher from a previous era. It is an unfinished Divine Key. But if you really want to borrow it, if you travel back in time, then come find me.]

【I am worshipped in your home.】

The unfinished key of God?

Otto frowned. The Key of God possesses power equivalent to that of the Herrscher, but to use it, one has to pay a huge price.

However, the Key of God was made from the core of the Herrscher of the previous era, and the power of the Herrscher comes from the Herrscher core. So, is it possible to do without the outer shell of the Key of God and directly take away the power inside?

It feels as dangerous as becoming a Herrscher.

Otto continued browsing other ways to become stronger, but he was not satisfied with any of them. Time passed little by little, and when the sky turned pale, Otto found what might be what he was looking for.

"Kung Fu."

This is not something imagined in a novel, but something that really exists in China.

There is a martial arts world in Shenzhou, and the martial arts heroes have the power to fight against the Honkai beasts, and the source of their power is the skills of various schools and factions.

The cornerstone of the technique, the so-called true qi, is the collapse energy.

Similar elements are also incorporated into the Valkyrie's training method.

As for the flaws of the techniques, most of them are slow to take effect and can make practitioners stronger than ordinary humans, but to defeat the Honkai Beasts, one still needs to practice diligently. Highly efficient techniques are more likely to face the risk of going astray than gentle techniques.

Once upon a time, the immortal Chiyuan from Shenzhou slew demons and eliminated evil spirits, and the ones he eliminated were the demons that had gone astray.

But even with the risks, Otto felt that this was the best path for him.

When it comes to the best of thousands of martial arts, there is only the peerless "Taixu Sword Qi" created by the real person Chi Yuan from Taixu Mountain in Shenzhou. However, according to martial arts records, it has long been lost. The Taixu Sutra that is currently being spread was modified by Chi Yuan's first disciple Lin Chaoyu based on the Taixu Sword Qi and passed down for ordinary disciples to practice, but it is also more sophisticated than most martial arts.

After reading this passage, Otto searched for "Taixu Sword Qi" in the Destiny Database.

Oh.

found it.

The Taixu sword energy, which had been lost for a long time in the Chinese martial arts world, was recorded in Tianming's database.

After taking a quick look at the relevant information, Otto nodded. Taixu Sword Qi is different from other martial arts. Other martial arts will store the Collapse Energy, also known as the True Qi, in the Dantian, but Taixu Sword Qi does not practice Collapse Energy. When used, it directly absorbs Collapse Energy from the surroundings, so it is less likely to go astray than other martial arts.

Of course, this does not mean that you will not go astray.

But if you shrink from these dangers, then wanting to become stronger is just empty talk.

However, even after learning the method of practicing Taixu Sword Qi, Otto did not practice it immediately because he knew nothing about practice and could easily go astray.

So, I should find someone to teach me.

It just so happens that Qi Mio V Shu Liu Ying Qi VII Ling Meng has the best teacher in this area.

In Siberia, the wind and snow continue.

Two figures quietly slipped into a village, but no one noticed.

"Ha, you're finally back."

With two guns on his waist, Siegfried patted the falling snow on his shoulder, then looked at Kiana who was following silently behind him.

Thanks to the Anti-Entropy Notice, he managed to get his daughter back.

The Valkyrie who was about to take Kiana away was probably injured somewhere, so she let Siegfried take Kiana away without a fight. While dodging in the snow, Siegfried finally made a big circle and brought Kiana back to the village where they lived together.

Tianming didn't leave anyone here, probably because he didn't guess that he would come back, but Siegfried would not stay here anymore. He planned to pack up his things and take Kiana to Anti-Entropy.

Although it was still difficult to forgive Anti-Entropy for being late in picking him up, Siegfried felt that he had to look forward because he still had a daughter to protect.

but......

How come Kiana turned into a grown-up girl after just a few days of absence?

The reason should be Kiana's awakening.

Siegfried was a little worried. Kiana had undoubtedly awakened before and had a battle with Destiny. Now she has recovered, but according to Tesla's speculation, staying with Kiana would stimulate her awakening.

Ugh.

I sighed inwardly, but did not show my negative emotions.

But what worried Siegfried more was that ever since Kiana was taken away by him, she had been keeping her head down and looked listless.

Maybe she was scared by the experiences of the past few days.

Siegfried suddenly smiled.

"Actually, I've always been worried that you wouldn't grow taller."

After all, Kiana in front of him and the short man who has remained the same for decades were both produced by the same manufacturer.

But now it seems that only Theresa is frozen in the factory state.

"Will it be taller than me in a while?"

Siegfried wanted to use a joke to ease Kiana's anxiety.

"Now all the clothes at home are unwearable. I have to buy you new ones."

"Hmm..." But Kiana just responded softly, completely lacking her usual cheerfulness.

Damn it! It must be destiny that scared Kiana!

Siegfried took a deep breath. The most urgent thing was to leave as soon as possible. He didn't think Otto would give up on Kiana like this. He reached out and rubbed Kiana's head.

"I'm going to pack my things. Kiana, check if there's anything you want to take with you. We're leaving."

"By the way, I'm leaving Sora in the care of Aunt Martha. Do you want to take her with you?"

Kiana said nothing, just shook her head.
