A World Worth Protecting - Chapter 1435



1435 Chapter 1436 was correct (third update)

There was no whites in the pitch-black eyes. It was as if the pupils had melted and devoured everything around them, causing the eyes… to be completely black.

The color was exactly the same as the color of desire.

Not only that, the instant the emperor opened his eyes, wisps of black mist rose up from his body and surrounded him. At the same time, they also continued to spread outwards. Looking from afar.., it was as if the emperor had become the source of the black fog. The wisps of black fog that spread out were like tentacles, shocking to the eye.

This scene caused Wang Baole’s eyes to shrink. He could feel the strong aura and ripples of desire on the emperor’s body. This aura was stronger than any of the desires he had encountered before, even though he had fused the seven emotions and perfected the six desires, the desire that he had formed from the same source was still far inferior.

It was as if… This was the source of the desire!

This discovery shocked Wang Baole. He had a vague guess. Before he could make that guess clearer, the Emperor, who had opened his eyes, lowered his head slightly on the chair at the top of the stairs, he looked at Wang Baole.

At first glance, Wang Baole’s mind boomed. It was as if a force with supreme dominance had descended upon him, wanting to occupy his entire body and devour everything.

Fortunately, Wang Baole was also extraordinary. As his eyes shone, he remained unmoved under that gaze, like a reef in the sea.

After a long while, the emperor on the chair at the top of the stairs retracted his gaze and sighed softly.

That sigh was filled with vicissitudes and seemed to contain the passage of time. It reverberated in the hall for a long time and didn’t dissipate. It even gave Wang baole the illusion that the sigh had come from a long time ago and entered his ears, it was as if his life had begun to show signs of withering.

“I… Failed, and you… came too late.”

The ancient voice reverberated after the sigh, forming waves of invisible shock waves that spread in all directions and entered Wang Baole’s mind, causing his breathing to quicken slightly.

“Is it worth it!”Wang Baole suddenly spoke. His voice was like a storm as it collided with the shock waves in the hall, creating a loud rumble.

“I have always been paying attention to you… you have your pursuits, for the sake of your freedom… and I have my own pursuits, for the sake of completeness, for the mission in my previous life,”the emperor muttered softly, however, within the Palace Hall, there was a certain penetrative force.

“You are the same as me, a part of my previous life. However, your pursuits are your own, and my pursuits are the essence. So… are you asking me if it’s worth it?”As the Emperor spoke, he slowly sat up straight, his upper body leaned forward slightly, looking down at Wang Baole from above.

“I would also like to ask you, is it worth it to give up on your past life?”

“Fuse with me, and we can pursue our past life together. Is there anything wrong with that?”The emperor’s voice was dignified, and there was a hint of anger in it. It was as if he didn’t understand why… Wang Baole, who was a wisp of remnant soul.., he should have given up on resisting and returned earlier.

If that was the case, perhaps… there was still time.

Wang Baole was silent. He had absorbed the memories of the Imperial Emperor and combined them with the clues he had encountered in his life. In the end, deep down in his heart, he was very clear about his origins.

He was the remnant soul of the corpse in the coffin in his previous life. The Imperial Emperor was the same. They were indeed one entity. However, their independent consciousness allowed the two individuals, who were originally one entity, to walk in two different directions.

“What you seek is the past.”

“What I seek is the present.”Wang Baole shook his head, looked at the emperor, and said slowly.

“So, you weren’t wrong, and I… Wasn’t wrong either. However, if we look at the price, I don’t agree with what you did, because it wasn’t worth it.”

The emperor was silent. When he looked at Wang Baole, complicated emotions appeared in his pitch-black eyes. From the moment he became conscious, he didn’t believe that there was any life in the universe that could speak to him as an equal.

It was the same even for the parrot.

As for the generals, they were merely his subordinates. They didn’t have any qualifications. Only… the person in front of him was the only one who had the qualifications.

Amidst the silence, the emperor sighed softly again.

“It doesn’t matter whether it was in the past or now, it doesn’t matter anymore..

“Originally… if everything went smoothly, we would have been complete by now. I believe that we should have left the universe long ago and returned to the land of origin that belongs to us,”the emperor muttered, his eyes filled with confusion, regret.

“What a pity, what a pity… I thought that this cosmos was special enough, but I never imagined that it would be so special that it would be the origin of Immortals…”

“I didn’t lose in vain… but I really want to know who I am… and more importantly, who killed me… . What I want to do most is to return to my homeland.”

“You don’t understand these things… because the moment you were born, you were surrounded by a complete world. You had someone to accompany you, and you weren’t lonely

“But I wasn’t. I was lonely for countless years..

“Perhaps the first person to be born back then was you… Your Thoughts would have been the same as mine

“But these things really don’t matter anymore, because… Desire has awakened.”

Wang Baole was shocked. There was one sentence in the words of the emperor that made him agree. Perhaps, if he was really the first to be born, he would have made a similar choice..

In the silence, Wang Baole listened to the last sentence of the emperor. A glint flashed in his eyes. He remembered the missing piece of memory that he had seen in the memory of the emperor, this memory contained the unknown problems that had occurred in the emperor’s body.

It was this problem that had led to the changes in the Origin Universe Dao space and the birth of the seven emotions and six desires.

“And then?”Wang Baole asked calmly. He wanted to know what exactly had happened to the emperor. Even though he had more or less guessed what had happened, he needed to verify it.

The Supreme Emperor shook his head and slowly raised his right hand. The process of raising his hand was very difficult. Wang Baole saw countless wisps of fog wrap around the supreme emperor’s right hand, making it seem like he had to exert a great deal of strength to complete his actions.

As he raised his hand, a gentle light gathered on the tip of the Supreme Emperor’s right hand. The light wasn’t very bright, and it seemed to form forcefully amidst the black fog. It eventually turned into a light spot and left the Supreme Emperor’s surroundings, it flew towards Wang Baole.

It floated in front of Wang Baole.

Wang Baole could clearly sense the aura that came from the same source. His instincts told him that there was no danger within the dot of light. It only contained a memory.

After a moment of silence, Wang Baole raised his right hand as well. The moment he touched the dot of light, his mind buzzed. A memory… appeared like an image.
