Chapter 150 Seeds
"Is this the seed?"
Led by the Yang God, Yu Yi and the others arrived at a void. There, they saw a huge creature that looked like a silkworm coiled in the air.
The silkworm is huge, and its whole body emits a faint silver light. It looks like a lurking dragon, lying between heaven and earth.
"You are not a being of this world. It seems I've already been targeted by other seeds—"
The seed's voice echoed throughout the void, cold and devoid of any emotion. Although the seed had developed sentience, it was born without feelings.
At the same time, all the worlds of high-level martial arts are created by seeds, and seeds can easily identify whether beings are beings from the Three Realms.
But the seed was clearly mistaken. It thought Yu Yi came from another seed's world and that it and the Three Realms were being targeted by other seeds.
The chaos is boundless, containing countless seeds. Seeds can devour each other, and the worlds created by these seeds can naturally merge with each other.
"You may have misunderstood. Although I am not from this world, I was not sent by any other seed—"
Yu Yi stood suspended in the void, the Yin-Yang Mirror above his head emitting bursts of divine light, guarding against a sudden attack from the seed. The seed's aura was very powerful, comparable to that of a half-saint.
"In my past ignorance, I squandered too much energy. If the three realms can maintain a balance, the energy will eventually return to me through birth, aging, sickness and death."
"The birth of martial artists was my biggest mistake. They absorbed too much energy, and their long lifespans disrupted the balance of the three realms."
"All beings in the Three Realms feel that I owe them something, but I am merely struggling to survive. I do not wish to wither away; if I wither, the Three Realms will also perish—"
The energy of a seed is not limitless. The more powerful the martial artists in the Three Realms become, the weaker the seed will become. In essence, martial artists are plundering the energy of the seed.
This is also why the seed created a world without martial arts and wanted to destroy it, because if it didn't destroy the world, the seed would eventually be drained dry by the martial artists of the three realms.
"Zhang Tao, are you interested in replacing the seed, like Fang Ping did, and becoming the new seed?"
Yu Yi came to find the seed, originally intending to sever the life connection between the seed and the Heavenly Emperor, so that the Heavenly Emperor could not rely on the seed to resurrect infinitely.
But Yu Yi has now changed his mind, or rather, had a sudden inspiration. He plans to have Zhang Tao, like Fang Ping in the novel, replace the seed and become the new seed.
"Even if you replace me and become the new seeds, it won't matter. The Three Realms will still be the Three Realms. If the problem of balance isn't resolved, the Three Realms will be destroyed sooner or later—"
"It would be better to follow my plan, destroy this old world, create a new world, solve the problem at its root, and create a world without martial arts."
"Martial artists shouldn't exist. Only through the birth, aging, sickness, and death of living beings can the balance of energy in the three realms be maintained. That is the truly ideal world."
The seed is not afraid of death because it has no emotions. Its purpose in destroying the three realms is simply to create a world without martial arts.
"Zhang Tao, I think Yu Yi's suggestion is excellent. At worst, we can spread the Devouring Technique throughout the Three Realms—"
Yang Shen advised from the side that cultivating the Devouring Technique could absorb the source energy of the universe, without needing to plunder the energy of the seed.
Yang Shen and Zhang Tao did not spread the Devouring Technique on Earth, mainly because the Heavenly Emperor and others had not yet resolved the issue, and they were afraid that the Devouring Technique would be leaked and learned by the Heavenly Emperor and others.
The Heavenly Emperor was already extremely powerful. Even when suppressing the source land, he could rival the original Yang God. If he were to learn the Devouring Technique, what would become of him?
"But if you really don't want to be a seed, then let that stupid cat take your place!"
The stupid cat that Yang Shen mentioned was naturally the Azure Cat, which should be sleeping soundly in the Boundary Land right now.
"Then I'll give it a try!"
Instead of letting the unreliable Azure Cat replace the seed, Zhang Tao felt it was better to do it himself. With the help of Yu Yi and Yang Shen, he began to devour the seed.
As the seeds were continuously devoured, Zhang Tao's strength increased rapidly, his blood and qi exceeding 100 million in an instant, then 200 million, 300 million, 400 million—
Forty million calories of Qi and Blood is enough to break through to the ninth level; breaking one hundred million is a hurdle; and breaking two hundred million is another hurdle.
Currently, in the entire global martial arts world, only Yang Shen and Tian Di have more than 200 million Qi and Blood martial artists.
"Something's happened to the seeds—"
The moment Zhang Tao devoured the seed, the Heavenly Emperor in the Source Land immediately sensed it, realizing that the life channel between himself and the seed had been closed.
The Heavenly Emperor's face was gloomy. The Life Channel was his greatest trump card, allowing him to resurrect infinitely. Now that the Life Channel was closed, his greatest trump card was gone.
"The Heavenly Emperor is here! Yang Shen, you hold him off, I'll stay here to prevent anyone from interrupting Zhang Tao—"
"no problem!"
Not long after Yang Shen left, the sound of the void exploding came from afar, shaking the Three Realms. It was clear that Yang Shen and the Heavenly Emperor had already clashed.
"Yang, it was you who was behind this. There was a problem with the seed, and you were the first person I suspected. Only you have such power."
"In these tens of thousands of years, you have improved a lot and your strength has increased significantly. Even when the source land was suppressed, I was no match for you."
As the Heavenly Emperor spoke, countless cracks suddenly appeared in the void. The Heavenly Emperor stopped suppressing the source land, otherwise he would have been no match for the Yang God.
"Do you think I'm like you, trapped in the source land for tens of thousands of years, with no improvement in strength whatsoever?!"
The Heavenly Emperor, no longer suppressing the source land, has recovered to his peak strength, much stronger than the Yang God after cultivating the Devouring Technique.
However, even in defeat, one should not lose face. Furthermore, Yang Shen was not speaking carelessly; in all these years of suppressing the source land, the Heavenly Emperor's strength has indeed not improved in the slightest.
After being ridiculed by Yang Shen, the Heavenly Emperor's face immediately turned cold. The key point was that what Yang Shen said was all true, leaving him at a loss for words.
"Yang, you're still the same as before—sharp-tongued, mean-spirited, and utterly lacking in manners—"
The Heavenly Emperor's expression grew increasingly cold, his eyes filled with murderous intent. He instantly attacked Yang Shen, unleashing punch after punch, which Yang Shen could only barely parry.
[Yang Shen: @Yu Yi, help! The Heavenly Emperor has gone mad! He's only attacking and not defending! He's going to fight me to the death! I can't hold out much longer!]
[Yu Yi: Hold on for another half hour, and Zhang Tao will soon be able to completely devour the seed and take its place.]
[Zhang Tao: Half an hour might not be enough; it will take at least an hour for me to completely absorb the seed.]
[Yang Shen: One hour? That's going to kill me! You guys can collect my corpse then!]
[Ye Fan: If all else fails, all of us in the group can travel back in time to help!]
[Yang Shen: Forget it! You're all too weak. Don't come and drag me down, or I'll have to take care of you all.]
