Chapter 709

~8 min read 1,508 words

A sharp spear composed of shadows pierced the body of the Dragon of Mars, yet this Star God merely waved his arm lightly at the Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang.

Molten blackstone emerged from the side of the Dragon of Mars; the blackstone matrix near this star system was activated under the control of the Dragon of Mars.

A solid barrier stood between the Warp and the reality dimension, resisting the constantly surging waves within the Warp.

Even the power of the Hive Mind and the entire Greed-Dissolution Realm was significantly weakened by the obstruction of this barrier.

The movements of the Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang faltered slightly; his tentacles, spears, and spikes, all curled from shadows, shrank significantly in an instant.

Of course, also shrinking simultaneously was the pull from within the Warp, from the Greed-Dissolution Realm; the trend of his ascension weakened by a few degrees.

But it was only a few degrees; the path of ascension was irresistible, and a blackstone matrix of this scale simply could not truly block the Warp.

Realizing that he could no longer resist the ascension, the Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang felt even more pain.

He clearly realized that there was absolutely an invisible pair of giant hands in the Warp, quietly pushing him to step into the ascension to become the Lord of Greed-Dissolution, to become the Eternal Dragon.

And from the moment he swallowed the Source Blood Stack, he had unknowingly stepped into a trap, being toyed with by the entities in the Warp.

He was destined to become the Eternal Dragon, bearing an eternal, unquenchable hunger; even if he devoured everything within sight, it could not be relieved, and even if he finally bit his own tail and swallowed himself into his belly, it could not be relieved; he would only leave a void of hunger for this world.

Who exactly is it?

The Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang searched the memories in his genes, wanting to find out who the mastermind behind the scenes was.

His gaze glanced over Zhou Yun, who was standing behind Lion, Sanguinius, and the Dragon of Mars.

This Saint Doraemon had always been smiling; in the Warp, he was constantly pressing against the Hive Mind, and in the reality dimension, his power was manifested through the Dragon of Mars and Sanguinius, suppressing the Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang.

No, it shouldn't be him; what benefit would this have for him?

And it was obvious that Zhou Yun had been trying hard to stop his ascension.

The God of Plague? The God of Thirst? The God of War?

Or... Tzeentch?

Is all of this within your plan, Lord of Change?

Do you want me to fight Saint Doraemon to the death, and ultimately reap the benefits as the fisherman?

The Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang looked at Zhou Yun, his eyes actually carrying some sorrow of shared misfortune.

They were all being manipulated by the tentacles of the Lord of Change.

"Actually, our positions should be similar."

The Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang sighed and said:

"I also do not want to ascend, to not bear eternal hunger."

"But I have no choice; the call of Greed-Dissolution is so intense, it has been carved into my very existence."

"Even with the humanity brought by this body, even if you used blackstone to weaken the influence of the Warp, I still cannot resist that tendency, and can only make the slightest of resistance."

"The moment I entered this shell, the birth of the Eternal Dragon was already a foregone conclusion."

"The Dragon has already been born in the future, and now it is just spreading toward the present."

The Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang could already feel the hunger-filled shadow of the Eternal Dragon extending from the future.

"Since that is the case, then how about I become the Eternal Dragon?" Zhou Yun asked softly, as if waiting for the Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang to say this.

"You?" The Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang seemed somewhat surprised, not understanding what Zhou Yun meant.

Zhou Yun just reached his hand into his pocket and took out a snack the size of a fist.

That snack was baked dark brown on top and kept a light wheat-brown color on the bottom, emitting a faint aroma of flour.

The keen sense of smell of the Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang also caught the aroma of chestnuts; the inside of this snack should be a filling made of chestnuts.

It's a chestnut bun, the Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang found the memory about this kind of snack from his genes.

Suddenly, he noticed that there were some blanks in the genetic memory within him; those blanks were above the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's genetic memory, concentrated around the second or third millennium of humanity.

Those blank memories seemed to have a slight connection with the chestnut bun.

Suddenly, those memories began to emerge in the Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang's genes; they were like a curtain that had originally been covered, and now it was unveiled before the Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang.

The Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang saw the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang, the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang of the twenty-first century, lying lazily on the sofa, with the TV in front playing some kind of anime, Doraemon?

Doraemon, chestnut bun, twenty-second century.

Regarding that anime called Doraemon, it was originally covered by the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang with his great power and erased from the Warp to avoid the gods knowing of its existence.

Now the Hua Hua Hua Di Huang lifted a corner, allowing the Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang to peek.

"You?" The Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang looked at Zhou Yun blankly, not understanding why a thing from an anime could appear in this reality.

Could it be that he was formed by the projection of that anime in the Warp?

No, those gadgets of his seem to truly have great power.

He is holding a chestnut bun, could it be...

"This is a chestnut bun."

Zhou Yun held up the chestnut bun in his hand; his other hand reached into his pocket and fished a few times, taking out a small potion.

That potion was contained in a glass jar, with a sticker on it; the sticker depicted two rings nested together, forming an infinity icon.

"This is the Multiplication Liquid," Zhou Yun said, shaking the potion bottle in his hand; there were only a few drops of potion in the bottle.

The moment this word was spoken, the expressions of the Dragon of Mars, Sanguinius, and the Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang all changed slightly; all three stopped attacking at the same time, not daring to stir up the slightest ripple, seemingly worried that the potion would be knocked over and fall to the ground.

Only Lion looked at the potion, not understanding why.

"The effect of this bottle of potion is very simple; it can make something double every five minutes."

"Of course, the full version is more expensive and I can't afford it; this one of mine is a trial version, there are only three drops, and it only works on food of a certain size, such as chestnut buns, roasted sweet potatoes, dorayaki, and the like."

"What is the upper limit?" Lion vaguely realized something and asked in a low voice.

"There is no upper limit; unless it is reduced to zero in an appropriate way, it will continue to replicate itself, doubling every five minutes."

Zhou Yun laughed softly:

"If dripped on a chestnut bun, in five minutes there are two, in ten minutes there are four, in one hour there are 4,096, in two hours there are over 16.77 million, in another fifteen minutes it will break through 100 million, in three hours there are 68 billion, in four hours there are 281 trillion, and after twenty-four hours, the number of chestnut buns will be four orders of magnitude greater than all the atoms in the entire universe."

"After two days, the number of chestnut buns will be so large that it will be terrifying; we would need to turn every atom in the universe into a universe, and then add up the number of atoms in all those universes, to reach one-hundred-millionth of the number of chestnut buns."

The Lion was choked; his extraordinary brain could of course easily understand what Zhou Yun was saying, but when he looked at Zhou Yun, he still had an expression of 'what are you talking about, you guy'.

"No, no, no." The Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang shook his head repeatedly: "Collapse! When the number of chestnut buns increases to a certain magnitude, it will collapse on its own..."

"It won't collapse."

"Hmm?" The Four-Armed God-Hua Hua Hua Di Huang looked at Zhou Yun and let out a confused hum.
