Chapter 1222: Chapter 583: Submission! (Part 2)

"Submit to me!"

"You are the core of this Array. Now that the Array has been fully activated, it’s only a matter of time before it’s broken!"

"You know exactly what’s going on outside. Once the Array is broken, your ending will be getting carved up and divided."

"You don’t actually think you can resist that many experts outside, do you?"

Chen An’s voice was like that of an Enchanting Demon, seducing it.

"Oh right, if the Array is broken, you should cease to exist, right?"

"Hmph!"

The core snorted coldly and mocked, "How is that any different from submitting to you? Either way, I cease to exist, don’t I?"

After all these years, it had finally managed to give birth to sentience.

If it were given enough time, it could even take form. At that time it would no longer be the Rule of Water, but a new life.

But... "Damn it, why does it have to be now of all times?"

"Why not give me just a little more time!"

The core was furious in its heart.

Its aura climbed upward again!

All the chains started writhing madly.

It was unwilling to accept this!

"Hiss—"

Chen An’s heart jolted. The core’s aura suddenly skyrocketed, and it almost broke free from him.

Then he would be seen through.

At that point he’d fall into danger as well. With his current strength, he could only deal with this thickest chain.

"I’ll let you keep your sentience!"

"What?"

The core shuddered instantly. Let it keep its sentience?!

"As long as you submit and serve me, I won’t erase your sentience, and I’ll even help you gain a physical form."

Chen An offered the condition most tempting to the core.

Anyway, subdue it first; everything else could be dealt with later.

The violent core also calmed down a little at this moment, but... "Will you really preserve me?"

It was itself, and the Rule of Water was the Rule of Water. There was still a huge difference between the two.

"Of course!"

Chen An didn’t hesitate in the slightest, his expression firm.

"Swear! Swear on your Martial Dao!"

"Alright!"

This time, Chen An still didn’t hesitate at all. He could not hesitate!

The core was staring at him. If there was even the slightest hint of doubt, it would definitely see through it.

"I, Chen An, swear that I will never erase the core’s sentience. If I violate this, my Martial Dao will be cut off!"

He swore upon the Martial Dao!

But within the vow, Chen An played a trick: only he wouldn’t erase it; as for other people... that didn’t count!

"Good!"

Hearing this, the core shouted loudly.

Born of heaven and earth, it felt the resonance in its heart instantly.

So it no longer had any worries.

Moreover, it felt that Chen An was very young, yet there was an ancient aura on his body.

And one more thing!

Once the Array was broken, it would definitely be carved up.

Chen An was right about that.

And that was indeed its final outcome.

After much deliberation, submitting to Chen An was its best choice.

Only to see the thick and thin chains slowly merging into one at this time.

"Hu—"

Chen An let out a long breath of relief in his heart. Being able to subdue it without using force was the best result. As for the future, that could wait!

Above the island!

Chen Xuan revealed a gratified smile; he could see what was happening below with perfect clarity.

"An’Er did well."

Of course, there was another point: the sentience born from this core shouldn’t have existed for long.

Right now the feeling it gave him was extremely pure.

At the very least, the vow Chen An swore was full of loopholes. If it truly had a mind for such things, it would definitely have noticed.

"Not bad."

"At least better than people."

Chen Xuan muttered. Compared to people, he liked this kind of core much more.

Pure!

At this moment, inside the island.

All the chains gathered together, intertwining and merging, then slowly shrinking, finally fusing into a seed of the Rule of Water.

It emitted a faint blue glow.

"You must remember your vow!"

"Don’t worry."

As the words fell—

The seed came to Chen An’s forehead and then sank into it.

"Boom!"

The moment the seed entered Chen An’s sea of consciousness, it erupted with a roar, and information of the Rule of Water surged out instantly.

"Eh?"

"I can control the Array?"

Chen An felt that this Array was like a part of his own body.

"This Array was derived from the Rule of Water. I am the core. Although you haven’t fully comprehended it, it’s equivalent to me recognizing you as my master now; of course you can control the Array."

The core’s voice rang out.

"So that’s how it is."

Chen An nodded.

"But I’m going to fall into slumber now. I won’t wake up until you’ve fully comprehended the Rule of Water."

"Don’t worry. Since I promised you, I won’t erase your existence. If there’s a chance, I’ll let you gain a physical form."

"Many thanks."

After saying these two words, the core began to sleep.

"Father, I can control the Array now, and there’s also a passage to the second level."

Chen An transmitted his voice to Chen Xuan above the island.

"Control the Array? A passage?!"

Chen Xuan was startled. He had already guessed he could control the Array, but he hadn’t expected that the passage to the second level would also be in his hands.

"Yes."

"Maintain the Array’s current state; don’t let it weaken."

Chen Xuan immediately instructed, "You stay inside and comprehend the Rules. Wait for your father’s news."

"Alright."

After that, Chen An sat down cross-legged and began comprehending the Rule of Water.

And the people around the island also noticed the problem at once: the Array wasn’t changing anymore.

In an instant!

All eyes converged on Chen Xuan. There was no need to think about it; it had to be his doing.

"What did you do?"

Xiao Jue narrowed his eyes and asked coldly.

"None of your damn business."

Chen Xuan couldn’t be bothered with him, but at this time Lin Xi also looked toward him. "Brother Chen, this...."

"Empress, just wait."

Compared to Xiao Jue, his attitude toward Lin Xi was much better.

"That’s good."

Lin Xi slowly closed her eyes. As long as she could enter the second level, she wouldn’t care about anything else.
