Chapter 1839: Chapter 442: What Is There to Fear About Death? (4)
From this, one can see the strength of Qinglong; he entered Lin Lei’s Divine Domain alone, coming and going as he pleased, and effortlessly withstood the infusion of "Great Cold Sword Qi".
If Qinglong had initially stepped into Qingzhong.
Then the outcome probably wouldn’t have been much different.
Bai Shu wasn’t confident that his "Double Golden Divine Domain" could suppress Qinglong. As for the "Triple Divine Domain," his ultimate hidden move, it might be able to injure Qinglong... but as the caster, the price he would bear was also significant. If his ultimate move was easily withstood by Qinglong, he would likely lose his last home-field advantage.
This was also the reason why Lin Lei and Qinglong merely tested each other, stopping at a point.
Besides the "Great Cold Sword Qi," Lin Lei had her own hidden killer move... but she wasn’t sure if it would work.
Qinglong was also content to stop here.
Once the final move was deployed, this battle would completely transform into a Divine War.
"The three of you..."
Turing murmured softly.
Currently, among the Five Continents, there wasn’t a third Divine Throne in their camp with combat capability.
"The third Divine Throne... shouldn’t be that hard to find, right, Meng Xizhou? Gu Shen?"
Bai Shu spoke with a frown.
The two he mentioned were both Quasi-Gods qualified for the Origin Seed!
Meng Xizhou had already formally merged with the Light Fire, but unfortunately, she had only initially grasped a trace of Origin Power. She wasn’t yet qualified to participate in a true "Divine War." If she wished to ascend the Source Tower to challenge Qinglong, her strength was still far from enough.
It takes time to refine the Origin Seed and master the origin.
As for Gu Shen, he was also a Quasi-God... yet his situation was very peculiar.
"Gu Shen is different from Meng Xizhou."
Turing stated calmly, "Although I took the Netherworld Fire, counting on him to participate in the Divine War as a Divine Throne... it’ll probably take some time."
Bai Shu was puzzled, "Wait some time, what do you mean?"
"Deep Sea has already started moving. After the eleventh upgrade, he will persuade Qinglong to fully implement the Awakening Bill within the Central Continent... Initially, he considered ’implementation’ as a peaceful rollout. But now he has changed his strategy. To spread the bill across the Five Continents quickly and efficiently, the best way is to wage war," Turing said in a deep voice.
The expressions of Lin Lei and Bai Shu were full of a murderous aura.
Indeed.
War... has actually already begun.
The North Continent has already fully entered a state of war preparedness, and so has the East Continent. But if war breaks out and the Central Continent chooses to enter the "Extraordinary Era," then the other continents would have no choice but to do the same.
"Everything Deep Sea does is for human awakening."
Turing said hoarsely, "So far, it’s been successful for him. The tide of the Transcendents’ era is unstoppable, starting to roll and crush. No one can stop the arrival of the ’Extraordinary Era.’ Merely, those Transcendents awakened through [Deep Sea], their spirit no longer belongs to themselves. If one day [Deep Sea] desires, with just a single thought, he could erase all these Awakeners."
From this point of view.
Extraordinary Awakening is worse than descending into the mundane.
Bai Shu rasped, "Given the current situation, what can I do?"
Actually, the method is very simple.
Ascend the Source Tower, kill Qinglong, and destroy the [Deep Sea] mainframe. This is the fastest and most direct solution.
But... he couldn’t do it.
Even with Lin Lei, it was still not enough.
"The chaos created by [Deep Sea] stems from me. As the root cause of this chaos, I should sacrifice myself, saving humanity from the calamity."
Turing said softly, "But thirty years ago, Gu Changzhi told me that even if I died, nothing would improve... so I kept living until now, enduring thirty years, I’ve finally waited for an opportunity."
He lifted his head, looking directly into Lin Lei and Bai Shu’s eyes, sincerely saying, "If you trust me enough, I have a method."
"But this method... might require you both to pay a great price."
"A great price," Bai Shu laughed freely, "How great is that?"
After a moment of silence, Turing replied seriously.
"Perhaps it means death."
Hearing this, Bai Shu and Lin Lei exchanged a glance.
They vaguely guessed what Turing intended to do.
More terrifying than war is if Qinglong starts a massacre across the Five Continents... If the Divine War must erupt, then it’s best if the Divine War occurs in the [Old World].
But if this war is the siege of the Central Continent by three other continents.
Then Qinglong is highly likely to tear apart the agreement among the highest seats... By then, all constraints, all rules, lose their meaning.
Meng Xizhou would die.
The third Divine Throne... wouldn’t even be born.
Qinglong won’t allow the third Divine Throne to be born, and neither will Deep Sea.
To win this war, they need to ensure that this Divine Throne can descend, can join—
So.
They must restrict Qinglong.
"Mr. Turing... from the ’future’ I’ve seen, there are no better options now."
Lin Lei sighed softly and smiled, "When the sky falls, someone tall must support it, and Bai Shu and I just happen to be such tall people. It’s actually a fortunate thing... just a pity, if there were one more Divine Throne willing to sacrifice, able to join this battle, it would be better."
"We’ll eventually find the third Divine Throne, won’t we?"
Bai Shu stood up with a smile, golden divine light flowing over his form, and this body gradually grew, no longer a child.
"If the so-called price is merely death? Then... what is there to fear of death?!"
Bai Shu patted Turing on the shoulder, smiling calmly, "If I die, remember to... leave a monument for me in Qingzhong."
Suddenly, Turing found the golden light before him dazzling, making one involuntarily want to shed tears after gazing directly at it.
Like... a sun.
Battle, battle.
He looked at Bai Shu in front of him and suddenly thought of that old friend from thirty years ago.
Bai Shu is not like Gu Changzhi.
Bai Shu and Gu Changzhi are the same.
