Chapter 1163
The "Mother Tree of Desire," who had broken free from "Charm," underwent corresponding changes when Lu Mian obtained the Phoenix egg.
Her giant body rapidly collapsed toward her abdomen, as if wanting to condense into a bird's nest or a womb, letting herself return to the state of an embryo and then be born again.
In this way, apart from the symbols she inherently possessed, the remaining symbols that were associated with her from the outside world would be reset and cease to exist!
Lu Mian would then be unable to use the law of occult similarity to make himself equal to her and kill her by killing himself.
The reason the "Mother Tree of Desire" hadn't adopted this method to break free from the symbol influence before was, first, because she had just used the symbol to descend into the barrier when she was guided by Klein, the "Fool," using the aggregation instinct of one of the divinity cores, "Fooling" and "Deceiving," into the gray-white mist that sealed the Western Continent. Her whole heart and soul were on taking back the "Mother Tree," and she wasn't willing to be reborn and let the useful symbols disappear. Second, because in the process of accommodating the "Mother Tree," she couldn't reset and obtain newborn, as that would cause the progress of accommodation to start from zero as well.
When the "Mother Tree of Desire" collapsed and was reborn, Klein, the "Lord of the Mysteries" in the Astral World, had already abandoned the maintenance of the illusory barrier. While listening to it creaking and about to shatter, he raised his hands, letting a giant light door stained with cyan-black luster emerge from the deep gloom inside his black windbreaker.
"Sefirah Castle"!
Klein was going all out to use an important symbol of the "Lord of the Mysteries."
Accompanied by the sound of "Clang," the collapse and rebirth of the "Mother Tree of Desire" slowed down at once. What could have been completed in the blink of an eye now took two or three seconds to succeed.
"Change"!
This is one of the core symbols of the "Lord of the Mysteries," controlling change, letting them slow down, speed up, stagnate, or make mistakes. The "Mother Tree of Desire's" act of returning to an embryo state and resetting her own symbols belonged to a type of change!
Previously, Klein didn't use the "Change" symbol to influence the "Mother Tree of Desire's" progress in accommodating the "Mother Tree" because it required going all out and fully exerting the power of "Sefirah Castle." At that time, he still had to maintain the barrier and resist the other eight "Great Old Ones." Furthermore, the current "Mother Tree of Desire" had used the special symbol of the "Chaos Embryo" and had fallen into a long, weak period that couldn't be recovered through "Newborn." The effect of the influence exerted on her change would be even more significant.
After the "Mother Tree of Desire's" attempt to return to an embryo state slowed down, Lu Mian, the "Root of Calamity," smiled brightly but with unusual determination and stabbed the giant black flame sword bound with destruction and madness into his own body. This carried the symbol of "Calamity."
Suddenly, "Flames of Destruction" erupted from inside his body. This burned his body, burned Cheek's consciousness, Alista Tudor's consciousness, the consciousness of the "Original Creator in the Mirror" split into two halves, the remaining spirit of the "Original Creator," and the "Sin Dragon's" consciousness, and also burned his own, Aurora's, and Jenna's consciousness.
Lu Mian's body subsequently experienced a destructive collapse, about to reach the end of the world and return to chaos.
Only the one who brings calamity to oneself and lets oneself be destroyed is the most true-to-name "Root of Calamity" and "Destruction Calamity."
In the exaggerated black flames that were burning silently and fiercely, Lu Mian turned his head and smiled at Aurora and Jenna, who were full of pain.
He looked toward the "Mother Tree of Desire" again, his face wearing a twisted but comfortable smile.
He saw black flames carrying destruction and chaos also surging from within the "Mother Tree of Desire," who was radiating crimson moonlight. He saw that giant, half-collapsed body collapse layer by layer, throwing out various reproductive organs, and those organs quickly turned to ashes under the "Flames of Destruction" that were entwining them.
After becoming the "Root of Calamity," Lu Mian no longer needed the help of Mr. "Fool" to fully utilize symbols, especially those that could bring calamity!
The "Mother Tree of Desire's" head, which was flawless and equal to the concept of beauty, tilted back slightly and emitted a howl full of pain, as if from a banshee.
Many Klein-like figures surrounding this area withered instantly, fell into death, turned into mud, and returned to the Earth Mother.
The entire planet followed by losing its vitality, the brilliant stars in the high sky also became dim, and various places in the boundless universe had shaking of varying degrees.
Reality was shaken.
The burning of Lu Mian's multiple consciousnesses and the collapse of his body also obtained the blessing of death and desolation, becoming faster. But this conversely affected the "Mother Tree of Desire," making the collapse of her giant body even more violent and leaving a large number of organs that hadn't been thrown out in a state of deathly stillness.
Seeing the "Mother Tree of Desire" being destroyed until only a thin womb like a bird's nest wrapping the massive object remained, the black flames constantly bringing chaos either extinguished strangely or could no longer continue to penetrate.
"The Indestructible"!
This is the "Indestructible" symbol of the "Mother Tree of Desire." This "Indestructible" refers not only to the fact that the spirit of the "Mother Tree of Desire," like the "Original Creator" and the "Heavenly Venerable," will never be worn away and will gradually recover as time passes, but also represents that her soul and her body will likewise not be thoroughly destroyed.
The "Mother Tree of Desire" will never fall!
Unless she encounters the "Original Creator" who can make all impossible things happen, unless the Fourth Pillar representing the end of everything is born, unless she overuses the special symbol of the "Chaos Embryo."
Of course, Klein and Lu Mian, who had long known that the "Mother Tree of Desire" had the title of "The Indestructible" and the "Indestructible" symbol, had never hoped to truly kill this Great Mother. Their plan had always been to severely injure the "Mother Tree of Desire" and drive her out of the Astral World barrier.
At this very moment, the "Mother Tree of Desire" was both in a long, weak period due to using the special symbol of the "Chaos Embryo," making even the recovery brought by "Newborn" slow, and had been severely injured by Lu Mian using symbol connection and the calamity symbol. She had fully satisfied the first-stage goal in the "Magician's" performance plan.
But the problem was that the second-stage goal could never be achieved because the Astral World barrier no longer existed.
Klein, the "Lord of the Mysteries," had a calm expression without a trace of dejection. He raised his cane embedded with stardust, letting the projection of the cyan-black light door be attached to it.
His eyes already reflected the figure of the "Mother Tree of Desire," who only had the last reproductive organ and the last embryo left.
"Banishment" and "Sealing"!
Before the "Mother Tree of Desire" suffered severe injuries, such an attempt would be difficult to pull the Pillar of reality out of the current planet, but now, there was this opportunity!
When the starlight spilled down, the figure of the "Mother Tree of Desire," which was no longer in its original shape, changed instantly.
She turned into an illusory, giant oak tree, connecting to the earth, supporting the sky, and overlapping herself with the reality of the entire universe.
Pillar symbol!
The "Mother Tree of Desire" used the symbol representing her as the ruler of reality and a Pillar!
The giant, unimaginably strange oak tree shook violently, but it remained rooted in reality, supporting reality, and was not banished, nor could it be sealed.
A wilderness unfolded, and a branch entwined with cyan-green mistletoe flew out from the top of the strange oak tree.
That branch instantly arrived above Lu Mian, who was still burning and being destroyed in the black flames, and sprinkled rain like nectar.
In one look/p>
The "Flames of Destruction" on Lu Mian's body extinguished rapidly, and the body collapse that was occurring was also stopped by "Newborn." Among the consciousnesses within his body, only his own consciousness, Aurora's consciousness, and Jenna's consciousness were nourished by the "Sweet Dew" and recovered quite a bit, allowing him to regain the balance that could be maintained for a few more minutes.
At this moment, the "Mother Tree of Desire" actually chose to save him!
Of course, the "Mother Tree of Desire" was also saving herself:
She neither wanted Lu Mian to die before the symbol was lifted, making her state worse and weaker, nor did she hope for Lu Mian to lose his balance and explode something potentially terrifying. After that was reflected back to her through symbol connection, it might be equal to the "Chaos Embryo" truly being born into the real world.
As the nectar-like rain fell, the giant oak tree supporting the entire world borrowed Klein's "Banishment" power and disappeared from where it was.
The Pillar of reality, the "Mother Tree of Desire," left the current planet and appeared outside the solar system.
She turned into crimson liquid again, wrapped around a giant planet, and began the change of returning to an embryo, obtaining newborn, and resetting her state.
This time, although there was no influence exerted by Klein, the "Lord of the Mysteries," through symbols, after suffering severe injuries and superimposing a weak period that couldn't be eliminated in a short time, the "Mother Tree of Desire's" attempt to absorb life and complete the contraction still appeared slow, as if being prevented from "Newborn" by the destruction symbol, and as if not wanting to stimulate the "Chaos Embryo" that had fallen into slumber again.
Across a vast distance, this crimson planet still stared at the place where a part of her body was. While excluding symbol connections and recovering from her own injuries, she patiently waited for an opportunity, waited for the situation to become more chaotic, for the remaining "Great Old Ones" to fall into intense contention, and for the "Lord of the Mysteries" to be weakened or suppressed, so she could descend again, take back everything, and strive for additional gains.
Klein, the "Lord of the Mysteries," didn't go to track the "Mother Tree of Desire" to give her more blows, and Lu Mian, the "Root of Calamity," didn't use symbol connections to continue "self-harm" because they both clearly understood that the "Mother Tree of Desire" was indestructible. Severely injuring her and driving her away, ensuring she wouldn't return in a short time, had already achieved the expected goal. Doing more afterward wouldn't yield a better result than the current one and might even trigger the problem of the "Chaos Embryo."
At the same time, more importantly, an illusory but distinct shattering sound came from behind Klein.
The final barrier he had dragged out from the fog of history completely collapsed.
The first thing that reflected into Lu Mian's eyes was a terrifying star cluster composed of a large number of exploding suns.
The planet under his feet, which had already lost its vitality, was suddenly torn into fragments by a massive force and ceased to exist.
