156: Chapter 154 The Monster-Gathering Artifact Arrives

"What is going on?"

Cecilia controlled her left hand and slapped the White Dragon King hard on his right cheek.

"Why did that guy White Dragon King's split soul consciousness suddenly cut off?"

"Did he fall into a dead sleep? Playing dead at a time like this, what the hell is he doing?"

As she was scolding, the corner of her eye caught those two eerie green lights emanating from the White Dragon King's eyes.

Cecilia's expression changed, and she immediately probed along that aura.

The next second, she felt as if she had been electrocuted, abruptly letting go and stumbling backward.

She didn't stop until her back slammed heavily against the trunk of the world tree, shaking the leaves and branches with a rustling sound.

"The Divine Embryo of Eternal Bliss!"

Cecilia's voice turned shrill.

She looked incredulous at first, then started cursing.

"White Dragon King is a madman, a complete and utter lunatic!"

"He actually brought the Divine Embryo of Eternal Bliss from the Sect of Eternal Bliss into the Primordial World and sealed it within the White Dragon King's origin!"

Lin Mo stepped forward and looked down at her.

"Speak plainly."

Cecilia originally wanted to get angry, but when she met Lin Mo's excessively calm face, she forcibly suppressed her temper.

This avatar was already rotting to this extent; at worst, she could just withdraw and leave; it wasn't her original body that would be unlucky.

She simply couldn't be bothered to beat around the bush and spoke directly.

"The Sect of Eternal Bliss, I've told you about them, right?"

"You should have an idea of what these guys specialize in."

She raised her left hand and pointed at the green light constantly flickering in the White Dragon King's eye sockets.

"That is the thing they use to mark their prey, the Divine Embryo of Eternal Bliss."

"Once it is planted, it's equivalent to being targeted by the Sect of Eternal Bliss."

Cecilia sneered.

"The most disgusting part is that this thing simply cannot be removed."

"Even if you blast the host into ashes, it will instantly transfer."

"Whoever kills the host, the Divine Embryo will automatically land on them."

"If you kill the White Dragon King now, congratulations, you will be the Sect of Eternal Bliss's new prey."

Lin Mo listened and raised an eyebrow.

Earlier at the underground altar, the Dragon King's remnant soul told him to kill the White Dragon King.

But the Demon King told him to spare the White Dragon King.

One wanted him dead, the other wanted him alive.

Now it all makes sense.

Good grief, they were waiting for him here.

As long as he really killed the White Dragon King, the Divine Embryo of Eternal Bliss would transfer directly to him.

"What a load of crap."

Lin Mo exhaled and cursed inwardly.

"These old things, each one is more sinister than the last."

Looking at it this way, the Dragon King probably knew more than he thought.

He had known long ago that the White Dragon King had the Divine Embryo of Eternal Bliss, yet he still sent this avatar into the Primordial World.

Once the Sect of Eternal Bliss got involved, the Primordial World would no longer be a place that only guys like the Dragon King and the Demon King could manipulate.

What exactly did the Dragon King want to do?

Lin Mo couldn't figure it out.

But he was certain that the Dragon King's original body definitely had deeper schemes.

General Gu Sha, who was on the side, had completely lost his mind.

He had no intention of listening to any conspiracies; he clutched his head and let out a painful howl.

"So the King had long sensed the causal fluctuations of the Sect of Eternal Bliss in the Primordial World!"

"He sent the vanguard army in just to let us two hundred thousand people come to our deaths, to test this source of contamination!"

General Gu Sha looked up abruptly, looking at Lin Mo with a face full of despair.

"Kill me! Quickly, kill me!"

"Once the Divine Embryo of Eternal Bliss is triggered, it will crazily absorb nutrients to grow!"

"Once it fully grows, this world is finished!"

"I don't want to become a lunatic!"

Lin Mo frowned, for the first time truly a bit silent.

This was the first time since he awakened that he felt this world was a bit too much.

All kinds of weird things could pop out.

The Sect of Eternal Bliss... and gods.

Isn't this a bit too outrageous?

I only awakened a year ago.

Is this the kind of pressure I should be shouldering at my age?

He looked at Cecilia.

"How long does it take for this thing to fully grow?"

Cecilia held up three fingers, a malicious smile on her face.

"Three years?"

Lin Mo asked.

"No, three days."

Lin Mo: "..."

He was stunned for a moment.

Three days? Are you kidding me?

What is the point of playing for three days? Might as well just surrender.

"Can this thing be thrown away?" Lin Mo asked again.

Cecilia sneered.

"Thrown away? You're overthinking it."

"The Sect of Eternal Bliss has plenty of ways to track it down along the causal line."

"Everything the Divine Embryo has experienced along the way can be clearly checked on the causal line."

"Since it has been to this world, even if you throw it into the depths of the void, the Sect of Eternal Bliss will still be able to find their way to your door."

Her tone carried a bit of sarcasm, as if mocking Lin Mo for being naive.

Lin Mo: "..."

Fine.

Now he was already starting to consider running away.

He moved his foot away from General Gu Sha's half-rotted chest and turned to look at the White Dragon King, who was tethered under the world tree.

To be precise, he looked at the thing in the White Dragon King's eye sockets that was still glowing green.

"Is there really no way at all?"

Lin Mo's tone was very flat, as if he were asking what was for dinner tonight.

Cecilia controlled the left side of the White Dragon King's face, the corner of her mouth curling.

"A way? There is."

She deliberately dragged out her tone, her eyes full of mockery.

"You just need to use Time Reversal to completely freeze the time in the area where it is, and it will never grow up."

"But that is a Divine Embryo."

"To suppress it, the energy consumed is not just a little bit."

She sneered aloud.

"Even if you have mastered the Law of Time, how long can you hold out?"

"One month? Two months?"

Cecilia seemed to have already seen Lin Mo being drained dry.

Lin Mo listened and rubbed his chin.

"To reverse the time of the Divine Embryo of Eternal Bliss, how much experience does it burn per second?"

Cecilia was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting him to actually ask this.

"One second, at least thirty million experience points."

General Gu Sha coughed up blood, and upon hearing this number, he pulled out a sneer.

Thirty million. One second. Who could withstand this?

This is a low-level world.

The highest-level monsters in the wild are only level two thousand-plus.

Killing one is about thirty million experience points.

But where would you find so many level two thousand monsters for you to kill one per second?

Lin Mo didn't pay attention to them and conveniently pulled up the system panel.

Then he quickly calculated a sum in his mind.

One day is twenty-four hours. One hour is sixty minutes. One minute is sixty seconds. A total of eighty-six thousand four hundred seconds.

One second is thirty million experience. One day is 2.592 trillion.

Lin Mo glanced at his experience multiplier again.

After the Fifth Class Advancement, his experience multiplier had risen to 1.24 trillion times.

Never mind killing two thousand-level monsters.

Even if he went back to the newbie village and just touched the weakest Demonized Wasteland Wolf, getting that little bit of base experience, once the multiplier was applied, it would be 1.24 trillion.

In other words—if he casually killed two monsters, it would be enough to cover a day.

Lin Mo's brows relaxed immediately.

"It's that simple?"

He muttered in a low voice.

"Then keeping it from growing up forever doesn't seem that hard."

He raised his right hand, index and middle fingers together.

Snap.

[Time Reversal], activate!

The silver-gray Law of Time halo descended instantly, precisely covering the White Dragon King's head.

That mass of eerie green light, which was constantly flickering and growing crazily, suddenly paused.

It was as if someone had pressed pause on a video.

The system prompt also scrolled out.

[Time Reversal activated (partial), deducting 30,000,000 experience points per second.]

The sneer on Cecilia's face froze instantly.

She widened her left eye, looking at the Divine Embryo of Eternal Bliss that had been firmly frozen, and then looked up at Lin Mo.

"You... are you crazy?!"

Her voice went out of tune.

"You actually dare to turn it on? How much experience do you have to burn like this?"

"Even if you are over level ten thousand, how long can you hold out?"

"This is a slow death! Once your experience runs out, you will die all the same!"

Lin Mo casually picked up a spirit fruit from the Purple Cloud Spirit Wood Chair and took a bite.

He smiled.

"You don't need to worry about that."

"You simply don't understand what true power is."

Cecilia's mouth twitched.

Again?

Is he addicted to saying this line?

Does this native even understand what he is saying!

"Don't be happy too soon!"

Cecilia gritted her teeth and simply laid it all out.

"The Divine Embryo of Eternal Bliss is not a dead object."

"Even if you freeze its growth time, it is inherently a divine object with strong attractive power."

She raised her hand and pointed directly at the sky.

"It will trigger a Void Tide!"

"When that time comes, hundreds of thousands of Void Creatures will be attracted over and descend directly into your world!"

Cecilia stared fixedly at Lin Mo, trying to find a trace of panic on his face.

"After the Extraterrestrial Battlefield merged with the Primordial World, your world barrier can no longer resist low-level Void Creatures."

"You should know how troublesome that thing is."

"The void matter dropped by killing Void Creatures requires forcibly deducting experience to process!"

"You need to burn experience to maintain Time Reversal on this side, and you need a lot of experience to clear the void matter on the other side."

She sneered, as if passing a death sentence on Lin Mo.

"Double bloodletting, you can't hold out for long!"

Cecilia caught her breath, waiting to see Lin Mo's expression change.

As a result, after Lin Mo heard this, not only was he not anxious, but he smiled even more obviously.

"There's such a good thing?"

He looked up at her.

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Just a moment ago, he had Shen Yuntang take those twenty-three Eight-Turn old men to catch Void Creatures everywhere.

But they were scattered and not enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.

Now it's good.

This Divine Embryo of Eternal Bliss actually comes with an automatic, large-scale monster-gathering function?

Isn't this a tailor-made artifact for gathering monsters!

As for experience?

Don't be silly, your Brother Lin smiled.

He now has a 1.24 trillion times experience multiplier.

Others get one thousand experience for killing a monster; with one slash of his, it can directly multiply into over a thousand trillion.

Lin Mo grabbed the dark gold chain tied around Cecilia's neck.

"Let's go, you do me a favor."

"What favor?"

Cecilia was bewildered.

"Gather monsters."
