Chapter 2934: The Gambler Loses Family and Fortune

At that time, he just hoped that one day, everything would return to its rightful owner.

Now, the "rightful owner" stands before him.

He Lingchuan may have forgotten many, many things, but he alone remembered this urgency.

For Sun Fuling, this is the best gift He Lingchuan could give her upon her return to the mortal world—Jin Shan, Yin Hai, and treasure trees are nothing compared to a single bone flute of the Tianwu.

The Earth Mother bluntly interjected: "Ah, why isn't his body made from the Hidden God Lord?"

He Lingchuan's body suffered severe damage in successive great battles; if he were like the other heroic spirits of Panlongcheng, who received newly forged bodies upon entering the world, he would have spent less time and suffered less.

Why does the Great Square Vessel not do so?

"He has always been a child of fortune, but changing his body may not necessarily be so." The Great Square Vessel's consideration is very pragmatic: "We will still have many fierce battles with the demons; as the saying goes, man proposes, heaven disposes—sometimes luck is the key to success or failure, and it cannot be replaced."

"Besides, he himself has painstakingly cultivated; this body is still the most suitable for his martial techniques and arts." Sun Fuling said slowly, "We have been extinct for too long, long since devoid of our original bodies, and thus have no choice but to use the Hidden God Lord to create them."

Who doesn't know that the original is best?

"Moreover, creating a suitable body for the Nine Nether Great Emperor is too difficult."

The Earth Mother was somewhat surprised: "Even for the Great Square Vessel?"

Sun Fuling hummed: "He personally slew several great immortals and demons; what do you think, placing him among the Lingxu constitutes what level?"

The Earth Mother pondered: "Not to say number one or two, but he must be at the very least top-tier? Oh, I understand now."

"The Great Square Vessel used the Hidden God Lord to create bodies for me and the Panlong army and civilians, thus utilizing it cleanly, with basically no remainder."

Needless to say, the greatest difficulty in this mass resurrection is the Red General herself.

She alone occupies the vast majority of the quota.

"What should we do now?" He Lingchuan frowned, "I always feel that there are some important matters outside that need to be attended to."

"Leave it to me; just rest and recover." Sun Fuling said, "However, your awakening is eagerly awaited by all; you had better go out personally, at least to greet them."

The "Dragon God" has once again returned from the netherworld to the mortal realm; for everyone on the plains, for Shen Guo, for Cang Yan, and indeed for the entire world, this is of extraordinary significance.

Such influence cannot be replaced even by the Red General.

He should quickly let everyone take a calming pill.

He Lingchuan lowered his head to look at himself, giving a bitter smile: "I would like to."

But he simply cannot get up.

"I have a way; you rest a while." Sun Fuling smiled, "Wait until I finish handling the outside affairs."

Outside, there are still countless matters, and He Lingchuan, being severely wounded, can only have her step forward.

After she finished communicating with He Chuhua and stepped out, the stone figure incarnation of the Earth Mother could not help but follow up and ask: "Why does the Jia Lou Tian's sequential promotion of divine ranks always fail? Is it truly just due to a lack of luck?"

Earlier, while observing the battle, it had been preoccupied with this.

"He lacks far more than that." The Red General chuckled. At that time, she merely couldn't be bothered to say more to Jia Lou Tian.

She extended her hand, and a triangular band emitting a green light appeared in her palm—exactly the Sequential Command Divine Rank of Jia Lou Tian: "I have not yet reconstructed it."

After Jia Lou Tian fell, the Sequential Command Divine Rank came into her hands. She carefully read the laws within the divine rank, confirming that her understanding of Jia Lou Tian's "sequential promotion" was basically correct.

"If he wishes to perfect the entire Sequential Command law, he must first establish the upper half of 'breaking sequence,' that is, the process of 'sequential promotion,' and cause the two to generate a closed loop from chaos to order, then from order back to chaos, repeating cyclically—only then can it be called true 'Sequential Command.'"

This passage, the Earth Mother already understood in battle: "Yes, but why does his promotion of 'sequential promotion' always fail?"

"Have you considered that the divine rank laws Jia Lou Tian originally mastered were drawn from the process of 'order' being destroyed, because destruction is easier than construction? Then, in the process of 'sequential promotion,' how would he obtain power?"

"This..." The Earth Mother had never thought of it.

"The process of establishing order not only fails to actively provide him with energy, but even demands a large amount of his original power be drawn out. This also aligns with reality." The Red General patiently explained: "Whether it was my father building Panlongcheng, or the Nine Nether unifying the Jin Jin Plain, those who contributed and sacrificed the most were always themselves. So-called 'when the time comes, heaven and earth unite in strength'—well, it's actually more like icing on the cake; you must let others see your worth before they are willing to join you."

The Earth Mother carefully pondered these words. The Red General's understanding of the law was equally helpful to her: "So Jia Lou Tian, while fighting you, also had to pour vast divine power into promoting the Sequential Command Divine Rank?"

The Red General nodded.

The Earth Mother gasped: "Double consumption! No wonder he couldn't sustain it for long."

"Who said it's only double?" Sun Fuling smiled faintly, "He has gone all-in several times already, each time wagering most of his divine power!"

The Earth Mother exclaimed: "What does this mean?"

It wondered why it hadn't noticed anything at all?

"I've said it before, haven't I? Chaos itself has no power; it can only steal energy from destroyed order. In the Primordial Mist, he could previously only use the 'Breaking Sequence' divine rank to fight me, his divine power dwindling with use, leaving little left. When poor, one thinks of change; thus he began to gamble big." Anyway, exhausting divine power means death; better to concentrate the remaining power and make one big bet.

"Gamble?" This word was unfamiliar to the Earth Mother.

"Yes, in the process of promoting sequential promotion, Jia Lou Tian assigned himself two roles: one as the promoter of the divine rank, the other as the bettor! Each time he promotes, he wagers most of his divine power; once he achieves stage-by-stage results, he gains substantial returns!"

"Really?" The Earth Mother expressed great shock: "Ah, no wonder he grew braver with each battle for a time—originally, he had obtained vast divine power for combat!"

For tens of thousands of years, he only ever practiced diligently; who knew others could obtain power in such a way? If Jia Lou Tian could succeed like this, what would his tens of thousands of years of effort amount to?

Sun Fuling saw through its resentment at a glance: "I said before, the process of establishing order is a near-certain death, with success rates pitifully low. When you almost wager your entire fortune, what is the most likely outcome?"

The Earth Mother thought: "A small chance to win a basin full, a large chance to lose everything."

It understood: "No wonder Jia Lou Tian's past promotions always failed; this time, instead, it's luck that's good—he's won several bets in a row."

"But this good luck doesn't last. Looking at the long term and frequency, losses will surely far outweigh wins."
