Chapter 4108

Water vapor rose from the Shadow Swamp. Looking down from above, this endless sweltering swamp was like a lake with occasional patches of plant greenery, except the water quality was filthy.

Dark aura erupted layer by layer from Black A as the center, matching his ghostly green pupils, giving him an aura like a ghostly beast. More importantly, the ring mark on his right index finger became a bit more obvious.

Seeing this scene, Su Xiao knew that the original sin causality of the "Original Sin Book" had been further stimulated. The reason he set all this up was to have a buffer when breaking the original sin causality, and Black A was undoubtedly the best buffer.

First, Black A was created by him and had close causality with him.

Also because of this, he could become a buffer for the breaking of this original sin causality. If original sin causality is compared to electric current, then Black A is the 'resistor' that this current spreads along the causal line to before Su Xiao.

Moreover, he is one of the five 'resistors' available to Su Xiao in the Star Realm. What is even more wonderful is that this 'resistor' has already swallowed the other three 'resistor' peers and performed a super enhancement on itself. If it weren't for the fact that swallowing Crystal Ji would likely lead to unknown mutations, Su Xiao would not have appeared at this time.

Such an ultimate cannon fodder and shield cannot be allowed to die easily before breaking the "original sin causality".

Su Xiao let go of the knife handle, and Proud Song crystals spread in his hand, forming a crystal straight stick 1.5 meters long and as thick as an egg. However, after considering it, he let it shrink by two circles. After doing this, he threw the crystal straight stick to the Blade Spirit beside him.

Opposite, Black A, holding the "Abyss Meteor" greatsword, saw that Su Xiao did not draw his blade but instead formed a crystal straight stick. In his eyes was uncontrollable anger. This was obviously not treating him as an opponent. When he witnessed the Law-Breaker on the opposite side throw this straight stick to the Blade Spirit, Black A was so angry that he smiled ferociously.

Whoo~

The Blade Spirit suddenly disappeared. When it appeared again, it was already in front of Black A. Black A slashed with the greatsword.

Boom!!

Fragments of the Abyss Meteor greatsword shot out, and Black A turned into an afterimage, crashing into the stone wall. Seeing this scene, Su Xiao knew that he was right not to do it himself. His physique enhancement would not benefit the Blade Spirit; the only thing that made the Blade Spirit stronger was the Blade Spirit's intensity.

With Su Xiao's current 500-point supreme strength attribute, even if he held back his strength, he would very likely send Black A away in one blow. It wouldn't have happened in the past, but more than ten hours ago, he had just added 100 points to his Strength, Agility, Stamina, and Intelligence attributes. At this time, his control over strength was in a period of instability.

Baja landed on Su Xiao's shoulder, looking at Black A, who was embedded in the stone wall with his right arm, shoulder, and even a small half of his torso shattered. Flesh cracks even spread to the right cheek of Black A's face. Baja said:

"Oh my, isn't this Black A, who has a rebellious bone and swore to slaughter us all? Tsk tsk tsk~, things with rebellious bones are destined to be weaklings..."

Baja began to output. Black A, who was bleeding from his mouth, saw the ghostly green in his eyes gradually reignite. The flesh on his body surged, and he rushed out from the stone wall fiercely. But the next second, he was hit on the side of the head by the Blade Spirit with a war stick. With a hum in his brain and a stuffy chest, he was pierced by the crystal long stick and picked up.

"Yo yo yo, isn't this Barbie Q? What were you howling just now, slaughter us all? Just by you? You are truly a toad circling and pooping, 360 degrees without dead ends, embarrassing yourself."

Baja's mocking ability was always maxed out. However, Black A was a bit exhausted. After exploding with power twice, he began to lack follow-up strength. Seeing this, Baja's eyes narrowed a bit. It was its turn to perform.

Baja's mocking ability was maxed out, and the Blade Spirit was responsible for beating Black A, who exploded with power time and time again. After repeating this a total of twelve times, no matter what Baja said this time, Black A lay in the mud without any reaction.

The Spirit Shadow Lines retracted, and Black A was hung upside down.

Patter, patter~

Su Xiao walked in the mud and arrived in front of Black A. His right hand raised, and Proud Song crystals spread, making his right hand form crystal claws.

Puchi!

The crystal claws pierced into Black A's chest and dug out his heart core. This was a twisting black semi-liquid that would also probe out some black tentacles. It was exactly what it looked like when Su Xiao first created Black A.

The shell without a heart core was withered and shattered. Shattered together with it was the black stone slab in its abdomen. The falling "Original Sin Book" was grabbed by Su Xiao with one hand. He strengthened the sealing power of the "Original Sin Book" and completely sealed the "Nether Bone Ring".

Leaning against the stone wall, witnessing all this, Crystal Ji gulped. Just as she was about to try to explain, the Blade Spirit with black smoke hair and azure eyes walked toward her.

"I actually..."

As soon as Crystal Ji's words came out, she saw the crystal straight stick swinging toward her face, and then everything went black.

Su Xiao glanced at the unconscious Crystal Ji and signaled Baja to take her away. Crystal Ji was a shield that could be used temporarily after Black A, this enhanced version of the 'resistor', failed.

Recalling the Blade Spirit, a Law-Breaker teleportation array formed under Su Xiao's feet. With a muffled boom, he disappeared from where he was.

A moment later, in the deep water area of the edge of the Shadow Swamp, a giant bull, using two horns to top a large amount of water grass, probed its entire head out. Compared to its huge size, its sneaky eyes made it look a bit funny. That's right, it was the Swamp King of this place.

Sneakily observing for a moment, the Swamp King went ashore. At first, it just walked quickly. After a certain distance from the swamp water area, it ran wildly. It had never been so fast in its life. This broken place, whoever wants to be the king here, just come.

In short, it would not stay here for another second. It just looked at the legendary Law-Breaker Shadow from afar, and it was so scared that it sank to the bottom of the water. Let alone breathing, it didn't dare to let out a fart, for fear of bubbles floating upward.

Not to mention the huge psychological shadow Su Xiao caused to the Swamp Bull brother, Shelter City Cathedral, first floor.

After the space crack gradually healed, Su Xiao took the elevator to the fifth floor. Just as he arrived at the fifth floor, he saw the empty venue here. The Goddess of Luck was standing in front of a giant ritual array, with golden brilliance flowing on it. This was the core of breaking the "original sin causality" this time.

Ayesha/Delona were of course also there. They were sitting on the bench by the window, while the Priest was on the high platform on the inside, pressing one hand on a religious secret code, performing daily prayers.

Everyone was present. Su Xiao came to the center of the array. The crystal seal on his right hand shattered. He placed the surging Black A on the core node of the array, and then placed the "Original Sin Book" on the initial node.

It is worth mentioning that the 【Adaptability Core (Alchemy Product)】 obtained in the last world was used this time, and it was one of the most core consumables.

After doing this, he retreated to the final node. The subsequent process was simple and dangerous, drawing out the vast original sin causality related to him from the Original Sin Book.

As for wanting to completely solve the source of these original sin causalities, that was impossible. The source was the six Daddy-tier original sin items. Subsequent original sin causality would still be generated, but that would take time. Perhaps by the time the Abyss Doomsday Catastrophe arrived, it would not have accumulated to a degree sufficient to put Su Xiao at risk of death again.

"Everyone, let's begin."

Su Xiao spoke. He sat on a crystal chair that was wider than usual, with Crystal Ji sitting beside him. His hand was pressed on Crystal Ji's back. The reason was that this was a double insurance after Black A failed to block the original sin causality. Although it could only block one blow, it could resolve dangerous situations.

The Goddess of Luck, as the host of the ritual array, took a deep breath and said seriously:

"Begin!"

Slap!

The Goddess of Luck put her hands together, and everyone was ready. But after a few seconds, nothing happened, which made everyone look at the Goddess of Luck from solemnity to doubt.

"Hmm?"

The Goddess of Luck could not believe it. She looked at the ritual array on the ground. The array had already been activated, but there was no follow-up progress, which made her look suspicious.

"What's going on?"

Although the Goddess of Luck was suspicious, she did not move. She was also performing this kind of ritual for the first time, so it was normal to have unexpected situations.

Hum~!

The array was completely activated. Original sin auras with six characteristics—dark gold, death gray, scarlet, gold, ghostly green, and black red—spread from the "Original Sin Book". These original sin causalities wove together to form an absolutely pale causal power. These original sin causalities were so dense that they appeared substantial.

The original sin causality flowed along the array. It should have been heading straight for Su Xiao, but it gathered on Black A in the Devourer state, which was the center of the array. In just an instant, Black A turned from pitch black to pale.

"Destined."

Delona spoke. With her eyes completely white, she pointed at Black A in the pale state.

"Deny."

Ayesha's eyes were pitch black, and she also pointed at Black A in the pale state.

Black A let out a roar like a soul scream. According to the estimate, as long as Black A maintained it for 10 seconds, he could separate these original sin causalities from Su Xiao to a certain extent. That is, this huge destiny spell array would temporarily absorb these original sin causalities. What to do next was simple: Su Xiao would seal them and banish them.

As for saying that completely offsetting and cracking these original sin causalities, this was not only arrogant but also looked down on the Daddy-tier original sin items and several top-tier Star Realm factions. If original sin causality were so easy to solve, would several top-tier Star Realm factions be so afraid of Daddy-tier original sin items?

1 second, 2 seconds... 5 seconds.

Boom!

Black A in the pale state exploded. He didn't even persist for 10 seconds. Even if he planned a dream start, Black A only persisted for 5 seconds. If there hadn't been those previous setups, Black A would have shattered instantly.

Of course, this was much better than the original sin causality heading straight for Su Xiao. The two were not the same thing at all. So, the MVP of this round could be given to Black A.

The Priest beside Su Xiao pressed his hand on his shoulder. In an instant, Su Xiao felt that he was temporarily detached from the surrounding world. This was his "existence" being temporarily hidden. To be more precise, his existence was temporarily pulled out of the Star Realm and located in an unknown conceptual realm.

Because Su Xiao suddenly disappeared, and disappeared from the level of existence, the original sin causality spreading toward him began to flow on the destiny ritual array.

Ayesha and Delona held hands. The strong destiny aura made their auras extremely dark. They were making the original sin causality further fit with the destiny array. Only in this way could sufficient sealing conditions be created.

Time passed second by second. After 30 seconds, the Priest had sweat on his forehead. Not to mention, how much consumption it was to temporarily "banish the existence" of Su Xiao at his current strength, the original sin causality close at hand was always scorching the power of existence.

With a crisp sound like a container breaking, Su Xiao was released from the existence banishment state. He had already stood up from the crystal chair and pinched Crystal Ji's back neck. Once he discovered that the degree of fit between the original sin causality and the destiny array was not enough, he would take out Crystal Ji as a shield.

Although Crystal Ji didn't know exactly what was going on, the crazily warning perception made her know that this was a critical moment of life and death. She chose... to do nothing. Any choice made now was equivalent to an act of seeking death in advance.

After a preliminary observation, Su Xiao squatted on the ground and pressed one hand on the destiny array. He did not use his crystal left arm but used his Abyss right arm. From the causal level, this right arm had a large causal volume.

The pale causality spread instantly, causing the arm he pressed on the array to be invaded by paleness from the fingertips upward. Judging from the current situation, the possibility of his success was still not high. To be precise, everything before was more like, after triggering the original sin causality, letting him not die because of it before the original sin causality was completely displayed.

This is not an exaggeration. This is the original sin causality accumulated by six Daddy-tier original sin items.

"My dear friend, Caesar isn't late, is he?"

Caesar, with an Abyss Jar over his head, appeared. It could be heard that Caesar was very tired.

Ask, how could Su Xiao not spend enough Space-Time Power to find Caesar to help with this original sin causality breaking?

After Caesar appeared, he threw a black stele fragment to Su Xiao. This item was the size of a washbasin and less than ten centimeters thick, giving people a heavy and solid feeling.

After Su Xiao took the stele fragment with his right hand, he pressed the stele fragment on the destiny array with one hand. The problem was that the pale original sin causality that was spreading and invading him continuously did not care about the existence of this stele fragment at all, but focused on eroding him.

"Destined."

Ayesha spoke.

"Advance."

Ayesha's voice came faintly. She let Su Xiao advance the destiny without cost. The thing obtained by prediction was that the causality was connected to the stele fragment in his hand. This was also why Caesar was asked to operate this item to have some of Su Xiao's aura, which used a lot of his blood.

This item was named 【Origin Clan Emblem: Rune (1/10)】, which was obtained by Su Xiao killing the exile Hatu in the last world. Caesar's operation this time was very wonderful. The 【Origin Clan Emblem】 part of the Abyss Clan Rune family was of course Abyss characteristic, and Su Xiao's right arm, although not Abyss characteristic, had absorbed the purest Abyss energy of the previous generation of Abyss Lord.

What Caesar did was to deceive this ownerless 【Origin Clan Emblem】, letting Su Xiao temporarily become the 'Abyss Clan' corresponding to this 【Origin Clan Emblem】. Of course, this was only done at the level of deception and did not happen in reality.

What Ayesha/Delona did was to tamper with the causality of this 【Origin Clan Emblem】 again, letting it become Su Xiao's shield like the previous Black A. If you want to erode Su Xiao, you must first pass through this 【Origin Clan Emblem】, which is no different from being contaminated with causality by the Abyss.

After this operation, the erosion speed of the pale original sin causality plummeted, and time passed second by second. Su Xiao, who could not possibly hold on for 10 minutes, had his right arm pale at this time. He determined that the time had come and immediately let go of this 【Origin Clan Emblem】, holding his hands in a virtual grip, and the sealing spell was formed instantly.

The first layer of the seal was formed, attempting to seal the entire "Destiny Array", but it was torn apart by the pale causality instantly. This didn't matter; Su Xiao's seal formation speed was 3,900 layers per second.

Quantity brought qualitative change. After 5 seconds, the layers of seals formed were finally no longer torn apart. And according to the principle of causal aggregation, more pale causality within the seal began to absorb the pale causality on Su Xiao's right arm. Soon, his right arm returned to normal, and all pale causality was sealed within the seal.

10 minutes, half an hour, one hour, until eight hours later, a sealing ball with a diameter of six meters appeared, with a total of 113 million layers of seals. If it weren't for the lack of mana, Su Xiao would have continued. Compared to dying in a fierce battle with a strong enemy, dying from being eroded by original sin causality was something he was unwilling to accept.

Looking at the sealing ball in front, the Priest, who had always maintained a kind smile, suddenly couldn't smile. For some reason, existence causality seemed to be predicting for him that if he didn't go further, this might be his final destination in the future.

Su Xiao took out the "Endless Ring", first informed "Three Fingers" with the meaning symbols in Abyss studies that this was unacceptable, dangerous, etc., and then banished these sealing balls to a distant place in the Abyss. This was the farthest place that could be banished to at present.

As for whether it would be obtained by the Abyss Lord, the probability was minimal. Even if it were obtained by the contemporary Abyss Lord, the degree of threat to Su Xiao in the future would not be one-tenth of what it is now.

The moment the banishment black hole formed by the "Endless Ring" healed, Su Xiao felt unprecedentedly relaxed. This was the weight of sealing and carrying six Daddy-tier original sin items.

Su Xiao's gaze looked at Crystal Ji on the side. Crystal Ji didn't say a word and took out the share certificate of the Shadow Chamber of Commerce.

Su Xiao didn't take it, which made Crystal Ji feel desperate. Spending money to buy her life failed, so she must die here today.

"I, I know a secret."

Crystal Ji spoke. She didn't sell the suspense and said directly: "After I came to the Meteorite Star, I vaguely felt that the ancient god corresponding to the Eye Ritual seems... to have signs of resurrection."

"..."

The hand knife beside the fair neck stopped. Crystal Ji's breathing stagnated, because she didn't react at all. If it weren't for a desperate survival move, her beautiful head would have flown up by now.

"Is that so."

Su Xiao took the share certificate of the Shadow Chamber of Commerce from Crystal Ji's hand.

The chamber of commerce forces in the current Star Realm can be divided into two types.

1. Goblin Chamber of Commerce.

2. Other chambers of commerce.

Everyone didn't expect that the Goblin Chamber of Commerce, which used to be greedy for high prices but had strong funds and integrity, was actually the most willing to take out resources before the Abyss Catastrophe arrived. Especially, the Goblin Chamber of Commerce had already made large investments in the Ten Thousand Races World, obviously intending to participate deeply in resisting this Abyss Doomsday Catastrophe.

The Goblin Chamber of Commerce, which used to make a lot of money, saw its total assets shrink by 30%, all caused by various investments regardless of cost. In contrast, the Ten Thousand Races World gradually had the appearance of a base for resisting Abyss invasion.

The reason why the Star Clan and Soul Clan were moved to go to the Ten Thousand Races World included the investment made by the Goblin Chamber of Commerce there regardless of cost.

Of course, once the Abyss Catastrophe is successfully resisted, these investments by the Goblin Chamber of Commerce will have very exaggerated profit returns. No one is jealous of this, and no one is imitating it for the time being.

However, the Gierliu family is eager to try. It seems that they are also prepared to make a large investment in the Ten Thousand Races World. It seems that the Gierliu family is more cautious. In fact, if this family really decides, they can smash more than half of their family wealth. The Gierliu family made their fortune by venture capital.

The Chamber of Commerce Alliance, that is, the Giant Bank and the Underworld Bank, is another approach. They are more inclined to believe that the Arcane Eternal Star can resist this Abyss Doomsday Catastrophe. The current overlord is the protagonist of this catastrophe, not the Ten Thousand Races World that has only recently transcended.

Especially the top layers of the Giant Bank and the Underworld Bank, who have experienced the secrets of the Second Era, they know better than the outside world how terrifying the true power of the Arcane Eternal Star is. And, the Star Realm has survived an Abyss Catastrophe once, which makes them generally not pessimistic about the second Abyss Catastrophe of the Star Realm.

Life can still go on. Based on this idea, it is certainly to scrape wealth wildly before this so-called disaster arrives, in order to stabilize the base in the Void. When the catastrophe ends, ushering in the middle of the Third Era, the core principle of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance is that they don't need to be the best at fighting, but they must be able to survive.

In fact, from a big-picture perspective, the Goblin Chamber of Commerce is the alternative one, while the Chamber of Commerce Alliance is the choice of seeking stability that merchants are more willing to make. Therefore, the Shadow Chamber of Commerce also joined the Chamber of Commerce Alliance.

Looking at it this way, the Demon Clan joining the Chamber of Commerce Alliance is indeed a very good choice. It neither broke away from the big ship of the Arcane Eternal Star nor turned against it, because the big-picture leader of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance is still the Arcane Eternal Star. The Demon Clan chose the "and" in the middle between "A and B", which will not be wrong, and also gave the answer.

If this were the "share certificate" of the Goblin Chamber of Commerce, Su Xiao would definitely keep it and sell it back to the Goblin Chamber of Commerce later. However, since it is a force of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance, he handed the 【Share Certificate】 in his hand to Caesar.

Caesar, who was originally slightly tired, became energetic immediately. Seeing this scene, the people present all felt their wallets were chilly.

"My dear friend, the split afterwards~"

"Two-eight."

"Impossible, how can I only get 80%? Caesar worked so hard, at least I should get 90%."

Caesar had a wretched look of being greatly wronged. After a tug-of-war between the two sides, the final split was still fifty-fifty.

After dealing with the original sin causality and seeing off the Goddess of Luck, the Priest, and Caesar, Su Xiao took Bubu Wang and Baja to the first floor, and the teleportation array formed.

Boom!

Inmouth, back city area, in front of the entrance to the personal laboratory of the legendary wizard Sawyer.

Su Xiao knocked on the huge metal door. The small door on the metal giant door opened. He walked into it and found that this place was a space chaos area. He took out the space talisman that the legendary wizard Sawyer had given him before. The surrounding space stabilized a bit, and a space channel appeared.

Following the channel, after a short teleportation, Su Xiao arrived in a sealed metal building. This was a great hall. It looked like an ancient building, and because of its high-quality materials, it was transformed by the legendary wizard Sawyer.

The ground was covered with mysterious and twisted arrays. A bowl-shaped giant dark golden ritual container with a diameter of over five meters was located in the center of the ritual.

The Eye Princess, who had already drunk various custom-made potions, was sitting on the initial node of the "Abyss Eye Ritual" array. The array had been activated. Eye Princess Loris hung her head with a weak aura. As promised before, not only did she not die, but the hidden injuries and illnesses on her body had recovered by more than 90% due to the potions she drank.

"Bai Ye, I succeeded, succeeded."

The legendary wizard Sawyer, who had a beard and looked rough but was actually polite and courteous, stood by the ritual container, suppressing the excitement in his heart.

"Next, as long as this ritual container is filled, I can proceed to the final link."

The legendary wizard Sawyer patted the edge of the bowl-shaped ritual container. Seeing this, Su Xiao took out a communicator and dialed. The other side answered quickly. He asked straightforwardly:

"Negotiated?"

"Yeah, I temporarily put aside my grudge with the Deer God. The Deer God loves to fight, but he is not willing to become someone else's ritual sacrifice."

The Scarlet Beast Di Luo on the other side smiled, while the Deer God not far away remained silent.

"How about it, Bai Ye, do you agree to this cooperation? Now only you are missing."

"There is a condition."

"Speak."

"I choose the first target to deal with."

"Of course, you can."

The Scarlet Beast Di Luo smiled even more meaningfully. He simply asked: "Then let's speak directly, who is the first one we deal with?"

"Spider Lady."

Su Xiao generally doesn't hold grudges. Spider Lady killed the Knight Commander of the Wind Sea Continent, and the Knight Commander once fought side-by-side with Su Xiao against the Wolf God. As for why Su Xiao doesn't hold grudges, it's because he will quickly kill his enemy after advancing to the same tier as them. Of course, he doesn't hold grudges then.
