Chapter 665: The Eldritch’s Atrocious Ambition, Wisdom Dictator
After Qin Manyun had said that, everyone realized she was right and their eyes began to fill with puzzlement. No one had ever heard of other races being in the first dimension, but what did that have to do with the Eldritchs?
Xing Ya looked at Qin Manyun and the cleaning cloth in her hand with admiration. These four girls certainly made a splash with their entrance and the way they wiped out the Extermination Demon Sword was truly awe-inspiring. Not to mention they did all those with simple cleaning equipment.
‘I wish I was the one who wiped out the Extermination Demon Sword. I would’ve come up with some cool lines after that,’ thought Xing Ya. He trembled with excitement at the thought that everyone would surely know of the Palm Star Pavilion’s existence then. ‘Enemies! They’re my enemies!’
He snapped back to the present and said, “Yes, you’re right. However, there used to be more races than that even if they’re the only ones left right now.”
Everyone was shocked at his words and their hearts went cold. They were not stupid and could think of all the possible explanations for that to happen. The other races were either wiped out from forces of the other dimensions or their own dimension. In other words, the Eldritchs had wiped out all of the living creatures in their own dimension. How cruel did one have to be to do this?
“How could they do such a cruel thing?”
“I can’t believe they’d do such a thing to the beings in their own dimension. They must be crazy in the head.”
“How’s it possible for them to still exist in this universe? Aren’t they scared of being punished by the heavens?”
They were all filled with rage.
“Why did the Eldritchs do all that?” asked Cultivator Junjun with twinkling eyes, getting straight into the heart of the matter as usual.
“Why, you ask?” Xing Ya closed his eyes. “Because one would possess the power to control all seven dimensions and become the true God of Creation when one becomes the ultimate existence in all of the dimensions.” In other words, the Eldritchs were aiming to become the Master of all Seven Dimensions.
They were all shocked by their ambitions. To them, the goal was infinitely beyond their abilities. Heck, it was not long ago when they just found out there existed seven dimensions in the universe. The Eldritchs must have been a race older than time itself.
Without waiting for another question, Xing Ya continued with his explanation. “The total amount of energy in the universe will never change, therefore, one can easily differentiate between a person who holds all the power and two people who have the power split equally among them. Take our Chaos for example, how many strong fighters would there be in the human race if the human race possessed all the energy in the Chaos?”
Everyone’s pupils began to shrink rapidly and their breathing began to come out in short bursts. The question sounded simple enough but no one had ever given it much thought before. To be more accurate, no one dared to give it much thought for how could they comprehend the impossible?
“Can the Eldritchs even absorb all the Spiritual Qi in the whole dimension?” Nanan asked the question that had been on everyone’s minds.
Xing Ya smiled. His bragging power was certainly stronger than his cultivation level. “The Spiritual Qi of a dimension is nothing! The higher one’s cultivation level is, the more Spiritual Qi one would need. A cultivator of the Heavenly Realm requires the Spiritual Qi of a little world and a Wisdom Elite needs the Spiritual Qi of ten thousand little words. By that calculation, how many Wisdom Elites do you think the Chaos can support?”
Everyone had their epiphanies. Yes, the Spiritual Qi in the Chaos was limited. The birth of a strong fighter meant the births of many weak fighters for the resources would always go to the strong until an impasse was reached.
“Besides, there’s an existence higher than the Wisdom Elites which requires unimaginable Spiritual Qi to support, so do you all still think that the Spiritual Qi of a dimension is a big deal?” asked Xing Ya.
“Well…” They were still trying to process all the new information. The fewer beings there were in the dimension, the more resources they would be for the rest of them.
“That means the Eldritch are trying to create a God! They had dominated the first dimension and plundered the other six dimensions, surely they must’ve created countless strong fighters already. I wouldn’t even be surprised if they had created a fighter above the Wisdom Elite level. However, they still show no signs of stopping until they’ve completely absorbed all the Spiritual Qi in the seven dimensions. What kind of terrifying existence would they create if they really did that?” asked Cultivator Junjun in a grave tone.
All the Spiritual Qi in the seven dimensions absorbed by one person—what kind of existence would that be? It was beyond their imagination, just as a mere mortal could not process the power of a Heavenly Realm fighter.
“We’re all Heavenly Realm fighters so it’s natural for us to understand that our numbers are fixed by the heavens. Whether it’s a little world or a big world, the number of fighters for each level is fixed to maintain the ecological chain of the universe,” said Xing Ya. This was akin to the Prehistoric times where the number of Saints was fixed at the number seven.
Xing Ya waited for them to nod their heads before continuing. “Therefore, there’s also a limit to how many Wisdom Elites could be born in each dimension. Any more than the fixed number would cause the Spiritual Qi to become unsustainable. However, there was one wildly ambitious Eldritch who wasn’t satisfied with this and managed to find a way to break through this limitation.”
“And that was to kill all the other beings in the first dimension to monopolize the Spiritual Qi?” asked Goddess Nuwa.
“Since the numbers are fixed, wouldn’t the Eldritchs be punished for breaking the laws?” asked the Jade Emperor with a frown.
XIng Ya sighed and said, “I have no idea how they did it but there’s no denying that they had succeeded in their plans. Now, they have their sights set on the other six dimensions.”
Everyone was silent after that. They could all feel immeasurable pressure in their hearts. The Eldritchs were the epitome of those who went against the will of heaven and did not get punished for it. They could not even begin to imagine what kind of power they possessed to be able to get away with it.
Cultivator Junjun felt his heart was as heavy as a rock. “That means the Eldritchs have within them many terrifying Wisdom Elites, and the Eldritch who wiped out all the other beings in the first dimension must’ve gone beyond the Wisdom Elite level already,” he said in a hoarse voice.
“The level above Wisdom Elite’s called the Wisdom Dictator,” said Xing Ya.
The name alone sounded cool. Wisdom Dictator, a person with the ability to dictate Wisdom. Anyone standing before a Wisdom Dictator was akin to a speck of dust in the universe.
Xiao Chengfeng felt all his confidence flowing out of him. “There’s no hope for our dimension if a Wisdom Dictator comes.”
“If,” said Xing Ya with a smile, “He would’ve been here by now if he could come. Although it’s true he possesses the ability to wipe out the other beings in the first dimension, it doesn’t mean he can willy-nilly travel between the other six dimensions. There’s no guarantee he can survive the trip and that’s why he only sends his subordinates for plundering.”
“Wow. You really know a lot huh?” said Xiao Chengfeng with pure admiration on his face.
Xing Ya waved his hand and said lightly, “This is nothing. After all, I’ve been here since the beginning of time so it’s only natural I know about all this.” His pretension oozed out of his every pore. Never would he let an opportunity to act cool slip through his fingers.
Then in a worried tone, he said, “We’ll only appear when a huge catastrophe is about to happen to ensure all the living beings have a fighting chance.”
Dragin pouted and in a confident tone said, “Hmmph! I’m not afraid of no Eldritch. I have Brother Li!”
“Yes, there’s nothing to fear as long as the expert’s in this dimension!”
“You’re right! The expert might be a Wisdom Elite, too! They should be scared of us instead!”
“Do you guys think that the expert might be a physical manifestation of our seventh dimension? Like, he manifested himself to help us fight off the Eldritchs?”
They were all giving their own two cents.
“Brother Xing Ya, you haven’t answered our question. What does the ultimate existence in all of the dimensions mean?” asked Cultivator Junjun.
“The other six dimensions have been suppressed by the Eldritchs for countless years and hence, it’s not surprising that many strong fighters were born because of this. There was one ultimate fighter who connected with Wisdom and discovered that there was only one way to defeat the Eldritchs, and that was to become the ultimate existence in all of the dimensions.
“The forces are intangible, Wisdom is rootless, just as the day becomes night, and night becomes day, along with the changes of the season, all of these aren’t imbued with any intention of emotions. The universe will be thrown into chaos if that were to happen.
“The ultimate existence in all of the dimensions belongs to a very unique realm. In theory, it’s akin to a person being one with Wisdom, making it possible to do anything in the universe. To put it more simply, it’s as if the person has forgotten about himself or his cultivation and only has the will of the Wisdom, putting him in a state of flow,” explained Xing Ya.
Nanan was confused. “How can one complete their tasks if they have forgotten what they need to do?”
“That’s why it belongs to the stories of legends only. No one could possibly reach that state. It’s akin to being a puppet of Wisdom. Truly impossible!” said Xing Ya. It was like a person had set up a program with the ultimate goal to eliminate a demon, and then he merged with the program, effectively wiping out his own will. Therefore, every decision the person made would be heaven’s will.
They were beginning to understand. Just like how the expert could not create Ultimate Chaos Treasures no matter how much he wanted to but once he had forgotten about his aim, he could easily create them.
“However, there’s a big flaw in all this,” said Xing Ya with a grimness they had never heard before. He then took a deep breath before continuing. “There shouldn’t even be a tiny hint of the person’s will while Wisdom operates in their soul. Once the person’s will is awakened by something, all the work done before would be rendered useless. Not only that, the person would be completely wiped out by Wisdom.”
“That’s horrible!” said the group with shock. Their hearts suddenly felt 50 pounds heavier while the respect toward Li Nianfan grew by leaps and bounds. It did not require much thought to understand how difficult it was to enter a state of the ultimate existence in all of the dimensions. It must have required unimaginable power and with so many variables on the path, the risk could be said to be ridiculously high!
One careless mistake and Li Nianfan would be completely wiped out by Wisdom. Even one casual remark from the others could take him out of the state. They were deeply moved by his sacrifice. Both Nanan and Dragin had tears in their eyes as they said, “Brother Li must’ve done this to save us from the Eldritchs. We can’t even imagine the danger he’s in right now.”
“No wonder the Soul Master warned us not to wake Brother Li up. We need to go back now to protect him!”
“The expert did this for us! We must make sure nothing disturbs him!”
“I knew there was a reason behind all his doings, though I never expected the reason to be this. He’s truly a blessing for our dimension.”
“We need to be more careful in the future.”
They were all determined to help out the expert in any way they could.
“He must have been born to prevent a catastrophe from happening in the seventh dimension. I feel deeply honored to be in a time where I could meet with the ultimate existence in all of the dimensions. I have no doubt the seventh dimension will come out of this catastrophe unscathed,” said Xing Ya sincerely.
“By the way, what are we going to do about Guhe?” asked Cultivator Junjun suddenly.
They all went silent at the same time as they looked toward the Extermination Demon Sword lying on the ground with worried expressions on their faces. The sword was already so powerful, meaning to say the master would be even more powerful. A Wisdom Elite was not someone that could be easily defeated by just anyone and what was more, he would arrive in one month.
“Guhe’s no ordinary Wisdom Elite. He has led many countless massacres and catastrophes in the universe. He’s a force to be reckoned with,” said Xing Ya. His words made everyone fall into the depths of their despair.
“Don’t worry. Both Sister Daji and Sister Fire Phoenix have already become Wisdom Elites. I’m sure they’ll be able to drive him away!” said Dragin.
“Wisdom Elites?” Cultivator Junjun and the rest of the people gasped. They were instantly filled with envy at their good fortune of being married to the expert.
“We should head back now,” said Qin Manyun, who was in a hurry to go back to protect the expert.
“Please, hold a minute, Miss Qin. This Extermination Demon Sword belongs to Guhe so I’m sure he’ll be drastically weakened if you suppress this sword. Why don’t you bring it back with you?” asked the Jade Emperor.
Goddess Nuwa smiled at his idea. Guhe was very proud of his own power to send the Extermination Demon Sword to the seventh dimension. They should make sure he would never get the sword back to frustrate him. They could not wait to see the expression on his face once he discovered his sword’s fate.
The Empress’s eyes also flashed mischievously. “What a great idea! Goddess Daji, Goddess Fire Phoenix, Lord Dog, Old Dragon, and many others are all strong fighters! They would have no problem suppressing the sword,” she said with a smile.
Qin Manyun nodded and said, “Alright, let’s do that then.”
With that, they brought the Extermination Demon Sword home. As for the others, they wished they could visit him but were afraid that they would bring him out of his state. Thus, they controlled themselves.
“Aren’t you tired of wearing that mask? Why don’t you show us what you look like underneath?” asked Xiao Chengfeng when his gaze fell on Xing Ya.
Xing Ya waved his question away and looked up at the sky. “I admit that you guys are strong and we fought together as comrades but forgive me for saying this—you’re not worthy enough to gaze upon my face.”
