Lord: Sequence Overlord

Chapter 427 The Corruption of All Beings and the Plan to Hunt Down the Ancient Gods
Chapter 426

In the mysterious study, Rosen stood by the window, gazing at the distant supercluster of stars.

The deal with the Immortal Star God had both good and bad news for him.

He had already sealed the Star Origin Seed and placed it into the Ancient God True Realm.

Although the core control of this thing belongs to the Immortal Star God, it does not prevent him from using the power of the Star Origin Seed.

It's really hard to say who won or lost in this deal.

Because Earth was more important than he imagined.

The secret of Earth lies in the birth of eternal life.

Eternal life was born at the beginning of the universe. In the beginning, the universe had no starry sky or endless void, only the primordial dark sea. Therefore, eternal life was naturally born in the primordial dark sea. However, no one knows why the primordial dark sea could give birth to eternal life.

If the universe did not come from nothing, then there must be an entity that created the universe.

Whether created by humans or by nature, there should be a wider world beyond the universe.

However, eternal life cannot leave the universe. All the innate source species of eternal life are bound to the primordial sea of ​​the universe. If eternal life were to leave the primordial sea of ​​the universe and head to the edge of the universe, it would not only become weaker and weaker but might even perish completely.

A true fall with no possibility of resurrection will have its eternal will extinguished within the innate source species.

The universe is so vast that even immortal gods and demons would find it difficult to explore in less than hundreds of millions of years.

However, for eternal life, after billions of years, the entire universe holds almost no secrets.

Therefore, from the perspective of eternal life, a universe without secrets is like a prison.

Therefore, all eternal life is using every means to explore the origin of the universe and the world beyond it.

The more we explore, the more clues we discover.

The Eternal Soul-Binding Horn—unsurprisingly, this is the Eternal Soul-Binding Wolf's greatest acquisition.

The greatest gain of the Ancient Gods was Blue Star, a very special star they discovered in the universe.

Blue Star is a life-bearing planet, but at the same time, it can be considered the faintest of the extraordinary planets.

It is almost impossible for a Sequence 9 to be born on the entire planet Earth.

However, on the other hand, Blue Star is also considered to be the only eternal supernatural star in the universe.

Because Earth has a natural time cycle, a natural cycle from birth to destruction.

Moreover, this time loop naturally possesses time acceleration, and this time acceleration can even affect eternal life.

The ancient gods once joined forces with some eternal beings to study Earth, but they still couldn't figure out where the energy consumed by Earth's accelerated time travel came from.

The Eternal Star God was once one of those invited to study the Blue Star.

The Eternal Star God was killed by the Ancient Gods in the Ancient God World because he coveted the Blue Star.

However, the Eternal Star God was not entirely unprepared. While studying Blue Star, he secretly stole a bit of Blue Star's stellar essence, which allowed him to find Blue Star, which was hidden by the Ancient God. The Sword God was a pawn subdued by the Immortal Star God, who was the reincarnation of the Eternal Star God.

Unexpectedly, even the Star-Shooting Crossbow failed, and by sheer chance, it ended up in his hands.

It was said to be a coincidence, but Rosen felt it wasn't that simple.

He suspected that the Immortal Star God had been eyeing him for a long time, and that the Star-Shooting Crossbow was only delivered to him through the hands of the Sword God, with the aim of getting him to find the Blue Star that the Ancient God had hidden. He didn't know what the Immortal Star God's specific plans were.

Rosen was quite certain that the Immortal Star God knew far more about the origins and secrets of Earth.

However, he kept it a secret, and he couldn't force the Immortal Star God to tell him.

The Doomsday Ark has returned to port and is preparing to return to the world of the ancient gods.

The Heavenly Serpent, enveloping the Doomsday Ark, rampaged through the Origin Dark Sea, quickly breaking through the blockade of the Origin Beast.

The primordial beasts of the tenth star ring are mostly comparable to true gods, with a small number comparable to great true gods. Very few primordial beasts can grow to the level of immortal gods and demons. Otherwise, the great true gods of the ancient god world would not have had the opportunity to advance to immortal gods and demons after escaping the ancient god world.

When he first emerged, Rosen needed to use the Ten Directions Annihilation Technique to clear away the primordial beasts outside the entrance to the Ancient God World.

Now that they've returned, they're capable of rampaging and killing their way back.

Before crossing the edge of the world barrier, Rosen's act of putting away the Heavenly Serpent Rabbit disturbed the sleeping ancient god.

The Doomsday Ark continued its descent and soon reached the Astral Plane, from where it descended onto Mount Pantheon.

Although he had tried his best to conceal the whereabouts of the Doomsday Ark, he still could not hide it from the will of the world.

Before it even arrived, the will of the world had already descended from the spirit realm to the summit of Mount Pantheon.

After the Ark of Doomsday entered the world of the Ancient Gods, Rosen re-established contact with his main body and his clone, which had been severed and blocked by the world of the Ancient Gods.

He had only been gone a few years when the ancient god world had already reached its peak and then declined, heading towards its demise.

In the beginning, the lives of all races were only faced with simple natural disasters and man-made calamities.

Natural disasters can be overcome, and man-made disasters can be avoided through concerted efforts.

All civilizations are highly developed and extraordinary, and all have received higher education; they are not ignorant.

So it was indeed very chaotic at the beginning, but chaos brings death and injury, and with death and injury comes pain. In addition, the dead superhumans not only no longer consume resources, but can themselves become resources. So after the resource shortage was relieved, the chaos gradually subsided.

This was clearly not the outcome the world's will desired, so the gods then took action.

All the believers of the gods secretly instigated war under divine decree.

However, believers ultimately constitute a minority of the population within each civilization.

In the past, for the sake of the development of civilization, it was impossible for the gods of various ethnic groups to convert the entire population into believers.

People of all races who have received higher education find it difficult to truly and wholeheartedly believe in gods unless they have been brainwashed with faith since childhood. When the belief in gods conflicts with their own survival, hostility towards gods naturally arises.

Forced by circumstances, the gods had no choice but to stop manipulating believers to instigate wars.

Because what the World Will needs is for all beings to hate the world and hate the ancient gods, not to direct that hatred at the gods.

Rosen was quite certain that the World Will had read the survival novels written by the novelist.

After the gods failed, the will of the world orchestrated Ragnarok.

All the gods and evil spirits of the astral planes staged a Ragnarok drama before the eyes of all races and beings.

The result of this grand drama was that all the gods either perished or fell into slumber, all extraordinary life forms above Sequence 1 disappeared from the world of the ancient gods, the entire astral plane was completely sealed off, the churches of the gods of various races could not contact the gods, and the followers of the evil gods also lost their support.

Without the interference of gods, the lives of all races, though impoverished, were at least safe.

However, at this very moment, the world's will, in the name of the ancient gods, unleashed a cataclysmic disaster that engulfed the entire world.

The spirit world has reconnected with reality, and this time it's a complete reconnection.

Endless spirit beings invade reality, and all races join forces to obtain a survival system granted by the will of the world.

In the description of the survival system, the creator of the world is the World Tree, and the creator of the world is the World Tree.

The ancient god has become an eternal evil god from outside, a world-destroying evil god who killed the World Tree and seized the world. Now the ancient god is about to awaken, and the World Tree and the will of the world are using their last strength to give all races a survival system to fight against the ancient god.

The entire piece is a lie, completely treating the lives of all races as fools.

However, without reaching a certain level, one cannot access information about the ancient gods and the World Tree.

Human perception of all things depends on how the strong define all things.

If a country's laws stipulate that killing is not a crime but saving lives is a crime, then over time, the people of that country will genuinely believe that killing is a good thing and saving lives is a bad thing. The definition of good and evil is never something that ordinary people are qualified to decide.

Many people have read Water Margin, and the story of Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian is even more well-known.

However, the real Wu Dalang in history was an upright and honest county magistrate, and Pan Jinlian was a well-bred lady from a prominent family who was deeply in love with Wu Dalang.

Because of a single novel, the images of Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian were completely vilified.

It's very easy to spread rumors, but debunking them can never wash away people's misunderstandings.

Even though many people later learned that Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian were wronged, what decent family would dare to name their daughter Pan Jinlian?

Therefore, even if the world's will and the gods are putting on a show and deceiving all races and beings, no one has the ability to expose these lies.

The emergence of the survival system gave all races a chance to breathe and a means of survival.

However, just like boiling a frog in lukewarm water, the survival system turns what would have been a painful and quick death into a slow torture where death is constantly chasing you, forcing you to struggle to survive for the sake of your loved ones, and making it difficult to even die.

Intelligent beings are most prone to resentment and evil thoughts when tormented by suffering.

Therefore, morality has been completely lost, and all living beings live under the shadow of despair and resentment, unable to live or die. The ancient god, who has been wrongly blamed, naturally becomes the object of resentment for all races.

Even if the ancient gods were to step forward now to refute the rumors, no race would believe them.

Because of preconceived notions, because of hatred towards the ancient gods.

All this hatred surged into the spirit world, polluting the spirit world formed from the ancient gods' sea of ​​consciousness.

As time goes by, the deep sea of ​​the spirit realm, formed from the souls of the ancient gods, will also be polluted.

As for the spiritual essence of the ancient gods, it is even easier to be polluted. The spiritual essence of the ancient gods has transformed into all living beings. In order to survive, all kinds of life have to be hostile to each other and compete for resources. All living beings are like being in a big dye vat, constantly polluting their own spirituality with their human evil thoughts.

"It seems you've gained quite a bit from the cosmos."

The World Will looked at Rosen with suspicion and uncertainty.

In the past, every time He met Rosen, He could sense Rosen's wariness and caution towards Him.

That is the uncontrollable, genuine instinct of the weak when facing the strong.

But this time when they met, He discovered that Rosen no longer had the same fear of Him as before.

It's obvious that Rosen has become stronger in the years since he left.

"Indeed, we gained a lot. When we returned, we discovered that the true identity of the Immortal Star God was the Eternal Star God."

As Rosen spoke, he sold the Immortal Star God to divert the world's attention.

As expected, the world consciousness immediately stopped worrying about Rosen, because compared to Rosen, who was still a great true god, the immortal star god, who was the reincarnation of the eternal star god, was a greater threat. With the power of the immortal star god, he could ruin their important affairs at any time.

"I'll find a way to resolve this, Immortal Star God..."

After pondering for a while, the World Will said, "You have seen the current state of the Ancient God World. The resentment towards the Ancient Gods is far from enough, so I want to use the Fallen Source Seed to accelerate the depravity of the hearts of all beings in the Ancient God World."

Rosen instinctively wanted to refuse, because lending out the source of the corrupted species would do him no good.

He already regretted sending away a drawn birthstock back then.

The most unfortunate of all beings in the ancient god world who have become like this are undoubtedly the ancient gods themselves, followed by the beings who have been manipulated. And those who started this will not be able to escape unscathed either; the deeper they are involved, the stronger the karmic entanglements they will be.

Rosen could now clearly feel that his causal connection with the beings of the ancient god world was terrifyingly strong.

The vast majority of them were drawn by him as the source species of birth.

Although reluctant, after weighing the pros and cons, Rosen began to open the Creator's Album and start drawing on the spot.

Consuming a massive amount of eternal corrupted essence, a replica of the corrupted source species was created.

He is entangled in more causes and effects than the world's will and the old fisherman.

These causes and effects, though potentially leading to endless troubles, also serve as a pledge of allegiance for their group.

They want to keep to themselves and don't want to put in any effort; they want to wait for others to finish the work.

When it comes time to distribute the benefits, why should he get a share?
"What exactly is your plan?"

Rosen asked as he drew.

"You'll only know when you become an immortal god or demon."

The world's will answered casually.

"I have mastered the eternal will."

As Rosen spoke, he released his eternal will, "I'm afraid I won't be able to advance to the level of an immortal god or demon in a short time. The growth rate of my life essence and divine essence is 15 points. I used the Ten Directions Annihilation technique to devour a massive number of primordial beasts, but the advancement is still a long way off."

The World Will stared at Rosen in horror, realizing that Rosen was far more terrifying than it had anticipated.

I thought that at most the origin of life would reach the eternal sequence, but I never expected that even the origin of divinity would reach the eternal sequence.

This is understandable; Rosen, being a great true god, possesses such power.

If Rosen can truly ascend to the level of an immortal god or demon, even He might not be Rosen's match.

However, having such a deep-rooted foundation may not be a good thing for Rosen.

His desire to ascend to the status of an immortal god or demon is virtually impossible.

The ancient god world lacked the resources to help him advance to the level of an immortal god or demon; only the forbidden zones of the universe offered the possibility of him taking another step forward.

However, given that Rosen returned after only a few years, it's clear he suffered a setback in space.

"Give me the Secret Brass Book."

The world's will no longer refuse to tell Rosen the complete plan.

Rosen took out the hidden brass book and handed it to the World Will. Soon, the World Will left the details of the plan on it.

After reading it, Rosen felt a chill run down his spine.

The world's will's plan is not good; on the contrary, it's terrible.

The resentment of all living beings is concentrated on the ancient god, which will prolong the ancient god's slumber.

If the ancient god were to awaken in this state and exterminate all living beings to reclaim their spiritual essence, then the evil thoughts of all living beings would also gather together and merge into the spiritual essence of the ancient god. In this situation, the eternal will of the ancient god would be affected and become evil.

Faced with the negative effects of this alteration of mind, the ancient gods will instinctively refuse to awaken.

However, even in slumber, the ancient gods are not to be manipulated. They will instinctively save themselves, and some heroes will inevitably be born among the beings in the world of the ancient gods. These heroes will be favored by the ancient gods and, like the protagonist, will rise rapidly and unstoppably with divine assistance.

When these heroes restore order to the world of the ancient gods, that will be the time when the ancient gods will fully awaken.

While the ancient gods instinctively refuse to awaken, they need to actively stimulate them to do so.

The complete and eternal will of the ancient gods, because the spiritual origin manifested as all living beings, could not awaken under such circumstances.

However, the avatars of the ancient gods are not affected by living beings.

The brief awakenings of the ancient gods in history, which occurred several times, did not refer to the original ancient gods, but rather to their avatars.

Even if it is just an avatar, it still possesses the terrifying power to slay eternal life by using the ancient god world.

The world's will plans to kill this ancient god's avatar, then seize and plunder the source seed, dismantle it into fragments, and divide them among themselves.

Then, before the ancient god's true form fully awakens, he uses the fragments of the plundered source seed to plunder the corpses of eternal life within the forbidden zones of the universe.

Then, before the ancient gods fully awaken, the fragments of the plundered source seed will be sent back to the ancient god world.

In the end, they each went into hiding, betting that the awakened ancient gods would not find them, and betting that the ancient gods would not take them seriously.

If the gamble is ultimately lost, the result will be being slain in the universe by the awakened ancient god.

The most difficult part of the whole plan was figuring out how to kill the ancient god's awakened clone after being stimulated.

It was only at this moment that Rosen realized that the old fisherman and the others were all reincarnations of eternal life, each possessing an eternal-level trump card, which was why they dared to join forces with the world's will to plot the creation of an ancient god's avatar.

The world's will's solution to the Immortal Star God is simply to bring the Immortal Star God into this group as well.

However, the Immortal Star God might not agree, because the Immortal Will has its sights set on Earth.

Of course, they might not refuse, since the ancient god's avatar died, giving the immortal star god the opportunity to covet the blue planet.

"I really was dealing with a tiger for its skin in the past."

Rosen chuckled to himself.

He never imagined that the old fishermen were actually reincarnations of eternal life.

He also learned why the will of the world hadn't told him the details of the plan in the past.

An ant can crawl onto an elephant without the elephant noticing.

No matter how deep the evil intentions of the beings in the ancient god world are towards the ancient god, because the individuals cannot threaten the ancient god and will not cause fatal damage, the ancient god's main body will instinctively delay its awakening, but the ancient god's avatars will not be stimulated to forcibly awaken.

Because the original ancient god was also wary of his clones, fearing that they might threaten the original.

However, they are not ants; they are the real threats to the ancient gods and can pose a fatal threat to the ancient gods' avatars. Therefore, their evil intentions may stimulate the ancient gods' avatars to awaken, which is why the world's will resolutely does not tell him the details of the plan.

Only by mastering eternal will can one perfectly seal off one's own evil thoughts, ensuring that no evil thoughts leak out.

Only in this way can one be qualified to know the plan and hunt down the avatars of the ancient gods.
