Chapter 607
Hiss!
Feeling that Ziyun was really doing it for real, Lu Li couldn't help but gasp.
If it were anyone else, it would be fine; relying on his Undying Realm physique, Lu Li could ignore this bit of damage.
But Ziyun was an Undying Realm expert just like him; this wave directly canceled out, and Lu Li suffered real damage.
Did this girl suddenly go crazy?
Looking at Ziyun, who ran away after taking action, Lu Li touched the spot she had twisted, his head full of confusion.
"Forget it, I won't think about it so much." Shaking his head and putting the matter of Ziyun aside for the moment, Lu Li greeted Meng Ningdie and Meng Chuyun and the others before flashing into the Eternal Land again.
There, a mysterious owner was still waiting for him.
"You're here?" In the Boundary City, at the White Night Pavilion, Xia looked at Lu Li's figure and pointed to the seat in front of her. "Sit."
"Your secrets seem to be even more numerous than I thought." Sitting down casually in front of Xia, Lu Li waited for her to speak.
The White Night Pavilion had clearly turned into fuel earlier to supply the Eternal Land's ascension.
But now, in the short time he had been away, Xia had pulled out another White Night Pavilion; this was absurd.
No matter what, the White Night Pavilion was a small world; even if it was a shattered small world, it shouldn't be something one could just pull out casually.
But Xia had done it.
Lu Li was becoming more and more interested in this mysterious owner.
"This starry sky is far larger than we imagine." Taking a puff of her cigarette, Xia spoke slowly. "Even a power like the Magic Card civilization is merely a corner of the starry sky."
"In this starry sky, there are many different worlds."
"And in the deeper parts of this starry sky, there are various kinds of threats."
"Among them, the greatest threat is what you call the Extraterritorial Fierce Beasts."
"And for me, these Extraterritorial Fierce Beasts have another name."
"Root of Destruction!"
When mentioning the Root of Destruction, Xia's voice clearly trembled in a way it hadn't before.
Clearly, the Extraterritorial Fierce Beasts, or rather the Root of Destruction, had quite an impact on Xia.
But upon hearing this, Lu Li was completely dumbfounded.
Root of Destruction? How did this thing sound so similar to the Root of Destructive Arrival?
"Pardon me for asking, but do you know about the Root of Destructive Arrival?" After thinking about it, Lu Li couldn't help but interrupt Xia's narrative...
"Also, have you heard of Angel Zog, or Gaia or Agul?"
Although Lu Li felt there was no possibility of this, what if?
It was just that if the Root of Destructive Arrival in his understanding was the same as the Root of Destruction in Xia's mouth—that is, the Extraterritorial Fierce Beasts—then the underlying logic was clearly chaotic.
And facts proved that Lu Li had indeed thought too much.
"Root of Destructive Arrival? Angel Zog? Gaia or Agul?" Xia was full of confusion; she rarely showed this kind of expression.
Except for the Root of Destructive Arrival, which seemed to have some similarities to the Root of Destruction she spoke of, what were Angel Zog, Gaia, and Agul?
"Ah, never mind, it's nothing; just pretend you never heard it." Xia's expression was enough to explain everything. Lu Li waved his hand, indicating that she could ignore what he had just said.
"You can understand the Root of Destruction as a special self-repair function of this starry sky." Seeing this, Xia didn't dwell on it and continued to explain the Root of Destruction.
"Once an existence that breaks the balance appears in this starry sky, the Root of Destruction will strike it."
"It is precisely because of this that the destruction of every world is the work of the Root of Destruction."
"But in reality, in extremely distant history, the essence of the Root of Destruction was not like this."
Saying this, Xia puffed out another cloud of white mist, waiting for Lu Li to digest it.
In her view, the amount of information was simply too large; even she had spent a long time at the beginning before she could accept this information.
Unfortunately, by that time, it was already too late.
Moreover, she didn't have the ability to change everything.
"Cough, cough." However, Lu Li's response once again exceeded Xia's cognition: "Um, do you really not know about Angel Zog, Gaia, or Agul?"
"Then have you heard of Lugsorat?"
1127. The First Living Being under the Starry Sky!
???
Lugsorat, what is that again?
Little brother, you have a lot of questions!
"No, don't you know how massive the amount of information I just gave you is?"
In the end, Xia couldn't help but ask back.
Why do I always feel like your focus and my focus are completely different, hey!
Is there a problem with my expression, or is there some cognitive error in your understanding?
"Ah, you mean that." Lu Li waved his hand. "This information is actually quite easy to understand and accept."
Rather, your description of the Root of Destruction is what makes me more concerned.
This starry sky repair function is a bit of a setting clash with Lugsorat.
And listening to your tone, it seems like there is a mastermind behind these Roots of Destruction.
This starry sky, wouldn't it have some kind of Tregear clown isomer?
Listening to Xia's description, Lu Li always felt like he had run into the wrong set.
"You actually accepted this information so quickly?" Xia couldn't help but take two puffs to calm her nerves.
Thinking back, she had spent a long time before she slowly accepted this information.
According to Xia's thinking, although Lu Li's growth speed far exceeded her imagination, growth speed was growth speed; it didn't mean he could accept this information that subverted cognition.
However, the result was beyond her expectations.
Could it be that before talking to her, Lu Li already knew these secrets?
But it didn't look like it.
Especially since the other party had asked her those two questions in return.
If Lu Li knew Xia's thoughts, he could only say that this was all a coincidence.
There was no way around it; it was really because the sense of déjà vu was too strong that he could receive all the information in Xia's mouth so quickly.
"You just said that the essence of the Root of Destruction is like this; is there some secret in this?" Lu Li signaled for Xia to continue; he was becoming more and more interested in this now.
If any other strange settings came out later, Lu Li felt he wouldn't be too surprised.
"That really is an unexpected ability to accept." Taking a deep breath, Xia returned to the main topic. "The Root of Destruction possesses the ability to repair the starry sky."
"The so-called ability to repair the starry sky is actually destruction."
"However, what the Root of Destruction destroyed at the beginning were only those worlds that were already on the verge of destruction."
This repair function was indeed novel and unique; Lu Li couldn't help but fiercely complain in his heart.
"In the cognition of the Root of Destruction, these worlds on the verge of destruction are the existences that break the balance of the starry sky."
"If these worlds were allowed to decay and wither away, it would eventually form a chain reaction, expanding like a virus toward the entire starry sky."
"Eventually, it would lead to the various worlds of the entire starry sky entering a state of destruction one after another."
Okay! Lu Li finally understood why this was defined as a repair function and why it had to actively destroy them instead of letting these dilapidated worlds destroy themselves automatically.
"In other words, under normal circumstances, the Root of Destruction will not launch attacks or invasions on ordinary worlds."
Taking over Xia's words, Lu Li raised his eyebrows. "But the reality of the situation seems to be not like that."
The Root of Destruction, or the Extraterritorial Fierce Beasts, now launched their big moves as soon as they met, without any possibility of communication.
As for saying that the Magic Card civilization was currently in a trend of decay and destruction, Lu Li thought that was even more impossible.
If even the Magic Card civilization was in a trend of imminent collapse and destruction, then he really wanted to know what kind of prosperous world would count as being in a normal state of development.
"That's because there is a problem with this repair function." Puffing out a smoke ring, Xia responded. "To be precise, the functional effect within it has been artificially changed."
"The original repair function was tampered with to destroy everything."
"Not just destroying worlds heading toward decay, but all worlds."
Oh! I knew it; it really is Tregear's character positioning!
However, being able to artificially change the repair function of this starry sky, the strength of this mastermind was also very absurd.
"Then, the most important question: what is your identity?" Straight to the point, Lu Li raised the most critical question, and the one he was most concerned about.
Although he had learned a lot of shocking information from Xia, in the end, the threat of the Root of Destruction to the Magic Card civilization, and to himself, had not yet reached the most dangerous level.
