Chapter 350

Cha Ye saw the boss come forward and decided to quit while he was ahead.

He never intended to kill these colleagues through these simple means; he just needed to vent the violent energy accumulated in his heart through battle.

Cha Ye's form of existence determined that he had to maintain his sanity through violence and bloodshed.

If there was no sufficiently intense battle for a long time, his consciousness would gradually be swallowed by the chaos of the abyss, eventually turning into a beast that only knew how to kill.

Moreover, Cha Ye was very cunning; he did not provoke the "Formless Mist" Na Si, whose strength was close to his own, or the "Twisted Sage" Nuo Ke Tu En and "Liquefied Demon" Mi La Si, whose authorities were extremely eerie.

The three Supreme Apostles he attacked were all "soft persimmons" that he could just happen to deal with.

He wouldn't fall into danger, and he could experience the pleasure of flesh-to-flesh combat.

"Hahaha... refreshing!"

Cha Ye laughed and sat back on the throne, completely ignoring the wounds on his body that were still bleeding.

These injuries were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye; the severed dragon heads regrew, and the torn wings were also re-condensing.

In just a few blinks of an eye, he had restored his complete form, even looking stronger and more ferocious than before the battle.

The recovery speed of the other Supreme Apostles was not slow either.

As existences approaching the Wizard King level, this level of injury, although painful, was not enough to be fatal.

But the psychological trauma was not so easy to recover from.

The anger and unwillingness of being humiliated in public by Cha Ye gnawed at their self-esteem like poisonous snakes.

Especially Ma La Ji, the flames in his seven heads burned even more vigorously, as if wanting to burn his entire soul into ashes.

"Now, can we calmly discuss business?"

Ma Ge Si's tone became dignified again, the mask with nine eyes flickering with eerie light in the darkness:

"Regarding Cassandra's interdimensional conquest plan, and how we can get a piece of the pie from it."

Mentioning this topic, the expressions of all the Supreme Apostles became complex.

Longing, jealousy, anger, helplessness... various emotions flashed alternately on their twisted faces.

"In the end, we are still too weak."

Bu La De Shi, who had just recovered his form, said bitterly:

"Clearly possessing the power to destroy planets, yet unable to stay on the front layers of the abyss for a long time. This kind of restriction... is simply the greatest irony to us."

This was the fundamental paradox faced by the Abyss Awakeners:

The stronger the abyss power obtained, the deeper the reliance on the abyss aura;

the deeper the reliance, the more severe the restrictions received.

Ordinary Abyss Awakeners could still operate in the main world, but by the Apostle level, they were basically permanently trapped in the abyss;

and the Supreme Apostles couldn't even stay in the shallow areas of the abyss for long, only able to operate in the deep abyss below the sixth layer.

This limitation was not just physical, but also rule-based.

Once far away from the core area of the abyss, their power would decay sharply, and they might even fall into a dormant state due to insufficient energy.

"Walking on this path, power was indeed obtained, but freedom was also completely lost."

"Twisted Sage" Nuo Ke Tu En twisted his body with a click, sighing with regret:

"We are like beasts locked in a cage, only able to watch the outside world, yet unable to touch it."

"What's the use of saying this now?" Ma La Ji roared angrily:

"We have no way back! The only thing we can do is find a way to break through this restriction!"

"Break through?" Cha Ye let out a mocking laugh:

"You think no one has tried?... You all know their fate."

Those predecessors who had attempted to break through the abyss restrictions had all, without exception, fallen into eternal slumber.

Their consciousnesses were completely swallowed by the abyss, losing even the most basic thinking ability, becoming true walking corpses.

"But it's not completely impossible." Ma Ge Si's words focused the attention of all the apostles:

"If we cannot leave the abyss ourselves, then let others act for us. Obtain resources and intelligence from the outside world through agents."

"Agents?" A Ge Sha nodded thoughtfully:

"You mean targets like Luo En Ralph? But didn't the last plan fail?"

Mentioning this name, several Supreme Apostles began to mock Ma Ge Si's previous failure:

"Haha, remember that Chaos Spirit plan? It was supposed to be a flawless trap, but it was easily resolved by that kid."

"And that Throne Seed, so much energy was spent making it, but it wasn't even touched by anyone."

"Ma Ge Si's 'perfect plan' is truly impressive."

Facing these taunts, Ma Ge Si could only admit defeat:

"Luo En Ralph's caution exceeded my pre-designed plan; that kid shrank back as soon as he arrived at the observatory, and there was indeed nothing to be done about him."

"Speaking of agents..."

The eyes in Na Si's nebula body began to rotate uneasily, his voice carrying obvious frustration:

"How many times have we tried? The 'Shadow Walker' of the Second Era, the 'Child of Chaos' of the Third Era..."

He paused for a moment, the starlight inside dimming:

"They all performed perfectly at first, possessing normal sanity, strong talent, and even able to gain a certain status in the wizard system. But in the end..."

"In the end, they all fucking went crazy!"

Cha Ye interrupted Na Si's words roughly, all three heads revealing expressions of disdain:

"Either they exposed their identities at critical moments and were killed, or they directly lost control and turned into monsters that only knew how to kill.

I remember that 'Child of Chaos,' who finally managed to mix into the upper echelons of the School Alliance.

As a result, he suddenly went mad at an academic conference and tore half the wizards in the conference hall into pieces."

"After that incident, the wizards' vigilance against abyss infiltration increased tenfold."

Ka La Ze Ke used his fingers made of bone to feel the armrest of the throne, making a clicking sound:

"Now, wanting to infiltrate again, the difficulty is much higher than before."

A painful human face appeared in Mi La Si's liquid body:

"The root of the problem lies in the characteristics of the abyss itself. It naturally carries chaotic and twisted attributes; any creature that accepts it will eventually be eroded to the point of losing its sanity."

"Even if we control the output power extremely carefully, only giving the most basic power boost, personality distortion will still occur irreversibly over time."

Xi Wa Na's abdomen squirmed violently, the larvae inside seemingly becoming more active because of the mother's excitement:

"This is the fundamental paradox we face. Without giving abyss power, the agent doesn't have enough ability to complete the task; giving abyss power, the agent will inevitably head toward madness."

Nuo Ke Tu En's twisted body made a movement that defied common sense, his head rotating 360 degrees:

"And even if the agent can maintain sanity, it is very difficult for them to reach a high enough status in the wizard system.

After all, abyss power and the wizard system have fundamental conflicts; wanting to master two completely opposite power systems simultaneously is almost impossible."

The entire council hall fell into heavy silence.

This problem had plagued them for countless years.

Every attempt would invest massive resources and energy, but eventually ended in failure.

Gradually, even the most optimistic Supreme Apostles began to doubt the feasibility of this route.

But just then, Ma Ge Si suddenly spoke:

"However... I recently encountered a special opportunity."

His nine eyes flashed simultaneously, emitting excited phantom light: "An opportunity that can completely change the rules of the game."

All apostles focused their attention on Ma Ge Si.

"This opportunity comes from the 'King of Blood' Aiden."

Hearing this name, the apostles present all revealed extremely complex expressions.

"That half-crippled fake king?" A Ge Sha's voice carried obvious disdain: "Wasn't he trapped in the Chaotic Blood World long ago, unable to even save himself?"

"And as far as I know, his strength is at the bottom of all Wizard Kings, and even some top Great Wizards can trade a few blows with him." The human head among Ma La Ji's seven heads spoke: "What can such an existence help us with?"

Ma Ge Si let out a light laugh:

"You only saw his weaknesses, but ignored his most important advantage—his mastery of bloodline modulation technology has reached an unprecedented height."

"Bloodline modulation?"

"That's right." Ma Ge Si began to explain in detail:

"Aiden, although not strong, has technology in bloodline fusion and modification that even exceeds that of Serna back then. Especially in how to make the bloodlines of different races coexist harmoniously, he has unique insights."

"He masters a special technique—'Bloodline Isolation Method.' This technique can completely isolate chaotic factors in the bloodline without affecting bloodline power."

This information made all the apostles' eyes light up.

If such a technique really existed, then the biggest obstacle faced by the agent plan could be solved.

"But..." Na Si asked cautiously:

"Why would Aiden help us? With his understanding of us, he should know the risks of cooperation."

Ma Ge Si's laughter became more sinister:

"Because he needs our help. The Chaotic Blood World, although his kingdom, has a level of chaos that even he cannot fully control."

"And we possess what he desperately needs."

Ma La Ji asked with interest: "You mean... mutual utilization?"

"That's right." Ma Ge Si nodded in confirmation: "This is a fair trade, with huge benefits for both sides."

"And..." his voice became more mysterious: "Aiden has already successfully created a pretty good sample using this technique."

"Sample?"

"It is Blood Tear Grand Duke Asmond."

As soon as this name came out, all the apostles were shocked.

Blood Tear Grand Duke, although only an ordinary apostle in the abyss, his potential and growth speed were obvious to all.

Asmond possessed a blood clan network spread across the main world and was an ideal tool for collecting intelligence and executing tasks.

"You mean... Asmond is Aiden's experimental subject?" Xi Wa Na asked in disbelief.

Ka La Ze Ke on the side had already started to feel moved:

"If Asmond is truly a successful case, then this plan is indeed worth trying. At least it's much more reliable than our previous rough methods."

Other apostles also began to seriously consider this proposal.

After countless failures, they had learned caution and rationality.

"What is the specific cooperation plan?" Mi La Si asked.

Ma Ge Si unfolded a projection, showing a spherical energy structure:

"We will fuse part of the source power of all Supreme Apostles to create an unprecedented Throne Seed.

This seed will simultaneously possess the ability characteristics of all of us, but after being processed by Aiden's bloodline isolation technology, it will not cause personality distortion to the carrier."

"The agent modulated by the King of Blood has already successfully infiltrated the wizard system."

Ma Ge Si began to introduce this plan in detail:

"This agent is different from previous rough works. During the production process, we extremely carefully maintained her sanity and personality integrity.

From the outside, she is just a normal genius wizard, without any signs of abyss awakening."

"Besides this, the King of Blood buried a special 'insurance' in her."

"This insurance can not only ensure her loyalty but also release power beyond imagination at critical moments."

Cha Ye added from the side; as another master of bloodline power, he also contributed part of his power to it:

"The talent and potential of this seed exceeded all our expectations.

She has already successfully entered the Nova Project hosted by Cassandra, and her ranking is currently quite high."

Hearing this, all the Supreme Apostles present had their eyes light up.

Nova Project—that was a young wizard cultivation project personally hosted by Cassandra.

Those who could enter it were all geniuses with massive potential.

And those who could rank high in it were even more likely to become leaders of the future wizard world.

"If this seed can stand out in the Nova Project..."

Ma La Ji's voice carried greedy desire:

"She will have the opportunity to touch Cassandra's core secrets, and even participate in the interdimensional conquest plan."

"That's right." Ma Ge Si nodded in confirmation:

"Through this seed, we can establish direct contact with the carrier.

Her every growth, every breakthrough, will feed back to us.

And when she reaches a sufficient height, we can even influence major decisions in the main world through her."

The grand scale of this plan shocked all the apostles.

If successful, they would be able to break through the restrictions of the abyss and achieve deep infiltration into the main world through agents.

This would not only allow them to share the fruits of interdimensional conquest but also potentially completely change the power landscape between the abyss and the main world.

"I agree!" Ma La Ji was the first to express his stance, the flames of desire burning in the eyes of all seven heads:

"Instead of sitting here waiting for death, it's better to give it a try!"

"I also agree."

A Ge Sha nodded in confirmation, more green pus pouring out from the hole in her chest, showing her inner excitement:

"This is indeed our only hope for now."

Other apostles also expressed their support one after another. Facing such a rare opportunity, no one was willing to be absent.

Even Na Si, who was usually the most cautious, was moved by the prospects of this plan:

"Although the risk is great, if it can truly succeed... we can regain the freedom we have lost for so long."

Seeing all his colleagues express support, Ma Ge Si nodded with satisfaction:

"Very well. Then let's start the ritual preparations now."

"But I must remind everyone that this process will be very long.

Because it requires fusing thirteen different source powers, the mutual adjustment will take at least a year.

And during this period, none of us can leave here; we must participate in the reconciliation process throughout."

Cha Ye breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this schedule.

A year or so was enough for Nari to cultivate that mysterious puppet to maturity.

When he came out of seclusion, he would just happen to sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor.

As for Nari's thoughts and feelings? That was not in his consideration at all.

In Cha Ye's cognition, Nari was just a useful tool, a pawn to be discarded after use.

"Then, let's begin."

With Ma Ge Si's announcement, the thirteen Supreme Apostles began to arrange themselves into complex geometric figures around the central gray vortex.

They each mobilized the source power within their bodies, preparing to conduct this unprecedented fusion ritual.

Various twisted energy fluctuations began to permeate the air, each representing a different chaotic essence.

These energies repelled each other, attracted each other, and formed eerie energy storms in the air.

The entire Soul Abyss trembled under this pressure.

Even the gray vortex in the center became more violent, as if responding to this unprecedented gathering of power.
