Chapter 602 The True Meaning Of The Existence Of The Original Battlefield!
The so-called theory that one source of creation leads to the highest existence is a very absurd fallacy.
It is estimated that Abyss Will or external conspirators deliberately spread this to deceive fools.
Because of this lie, the Supreme Lord, the Lord of Elements, and an unidentified but early deceased Lord of the Abyss tacitly endured years of unrecognized labor.
The collusion caused the decline of powerful beings in the entire era, all for a slightly better chance at the final moment.
Due to the subtle quantity of "one source," countless dirty dealings occurred among quasi-supremes.
It is unknown how many individuals, hoping to survive after gathering the one source, ended up becoming stepping stones for others.
This point became evident shortly after the last source battlefield opened.
However, this raises another question.
What exactly is the source battlefield?
What is its purpose?
Opening the source battlefield when the era is on the brink of collapse, dispersing sources to help certain beings become quasi-supremes, is harmful rather than beneficial to the era itself.
After each source battlefield closes, the world faces a major collapse, accelerating the era's destruction.
Without opening the source battlefield, this aging era could have lasted a considerable time.
Like an elderly person with a serious illness donating blood, bone marrow, and organs recklessly, it is simply seeking death.
In reality, the "source battlefield" is a mechanism for the era to continue its imprint.
If an era naturally perishes, its ultimate fate is complete annihilation, leaving no trace behind.
The source battlefield selects a "successor" for the era.
Just like a senior martial artist passing on their lifelong skills to a favored disciple before their end, or a wealthy tycoon grooming their child to inherit the family fortune before their death.
If this successor successfully ascends to the highest rank, they carry the imprint of the entire era.
Their world becomes the continuation of this natural era.
This inheritor can also be called the "Child of the Era."
The "Child of the Era" inherits not just the meager sources from the battlefield but all remaining sources that the era can bestow!
In fact, the "Child of the Era" is the era's own choice, and not all methods involve the bloody and brutal source battlefield.
However, this era can only resort to this method out of helplessness.
The rules of the source battlefield are simple - the winner takes all.
Whoever emerges victorious becomes the Child of the Era, obtaining all sources.
But not just anyone can become the Child of the Era.
At least, outsiders cannot!
Therefore, whether it's the repulsive distorted world or the world behind the Ninefold Heavenly Venerable, there must be an executor with the era's imprint.
The Ninefold Heavenly Venerable originally lacked this imprint, but after relinquishing their dominion and seamlessly integrating into the era, they acquired the era's imprint and became eligible to compete for the position of the Child of the Era.
Regarding Chen Yu's words...
[Tian Dao] always prepares a virtual identity for him, isn't it for this purpose?
As for why his true self can participate in the source battlefield with the era's imprint, it simply defies logic.
Even if I cheat to bring his true self here, the virtual body would have long disintegrated, but you can only accept my virtual character.
[Transferring the supreme power not belonging to this world into this world is extremely difficult. Both sides have expended immense power, and my consumption in reversing time and space is even greater. Therefore, there is almost no possibility of reconciliation between us, only one side can obtain all sources.]
[As the legitimate Child of the orthodox world, Abyss Will faces the challenge of creation without any worries. Therefore, it hopes we do not interfere, allowing it to smoothly inherit the sources, even if it must pay a hefty price afterward.]
"So, what should I choose now? Do you have any good suggestions?" Chen Yu asked.
[Based on the current analysis, if you choose to agree to Abyss Will's proposal and do nothing, you will ultimately gain two sources. However, you will face the risk of Abyss Will retracting its offer.]
[If you choose to ally with the other two external parties, defeat Abyss Will, and then compete with them for the position of the source inheritor, the risk is that after a failure, you will lose everything, not gaining any rewards. Moreover, you may be abandoned due to the collapse of the power of the Heavenly Dao, leading to death.]
"Wait, Abyss Will's proposal seems non-existent." Chen Yu questioned.
"Even if I agree, but if it becomes the Child of the Era, doesn't that mean there are no more beings in the source battlefield?"
"Then how can I collect sources at that time?"
[Entering the chaos rift is not part of the source battlefield. Entering the rift will be considered as being eliminated, and the eliminated will no longer have the qualification to compete.]
[After voluntarily leaving, we can wait in this world for the battle to end.]
"Isn't that even more absurd?" Chen Yu cursed, "You are the virtual Heavenly Dao, don't you understand human treachery?"
"If we all leave, and Abyss Will obtains all sources, why would it still share with me?"
[Because if it retracts, it will face the risk of us not leaving and interfering with its creation.]
[After the era collapses, there will be residual traces of laws. With these remnants, the creation of the Child of the Era will be more convenient.]
[Once the residual traces of laws completely dissipate, the difficulty of its creation will increase dramatically.]
"I see now." Chen Yu nodded.
In short, Abyss Will will face a problem if it retracts its offer - you can't run away after making a commitment.
The spherical monster and the Ninefold Heavenly Venerable did not propose sharing sources equally.
Perhaps besides wanting to monopolize, a bigger reason is that each of them intends to transfer the sources back to their own worlds.
Without leverage, any promise is unlikely to be effective.
A reconciliation Abyss Will cannot reach with all three parties.
The Little Saintess had long told Chen Yu that the sources in this era are too scarce, making it impossible to satisfy everyone.
Abyss Will wants to satisfy three greedy lions while also successfully creating - it's a bit absurd.
Three times two equals six, how much will Abyss Will have left for itself?
It should be noted that not all sources can be inherited by the Child of the Era, as many sources flow into chaos and vanish during the era's collapse.
Chen Yu's strength, combined with the sources he possesses, is no less than Abyss Will's.
Even when adding the Dark Soul Lord, Ninefold Heavenly Venerable, and the distorted form of Lucifer, their combined source quantity is not half of Abyss Will's.
As long as Chen Yu does not participate, Abyss Will is confident in defeating the other two parties.
Conversely, if Chen Yu does participate, Abyss Will is almost certain to fail.
Therefore, Abyss Will hopes to reach a reconciliation with Chen Yu, while the other two parties hope for Chen Yu's involvement.
After defeating Abyss Will, they can confront Chen Yu with the sources obtained from Abyss Will.
