Chapter 559: Fusion Begins
Chapter 559: Fusion Begins....
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After seeing Lilith open World Gates and summon these clones, Roy had already understood what she wanted to do.
These 666 clones would fuse together again with the help of the Red Sea Egg! At that time, the original Lilith would reappear!
This was also why Lilith had expanded the Red Sea Egg so much. Six hundred and sixty-six individuals needed the Red Sea Egg to have a large space. But Roy was a little puzzled now. Did the fusion ritual require 666 clones to complete, or was it possible to have more or less?
Perhaps this number has some special meaning…
A long time ago, when Roy learned about clones, he had speculated about it. Whether they were angels or demons, when creating clones through splitting souls, although they would certainly be of great help when traveling the Infinite Worlds, they would also lead to serious consequences. The upper limit of the strength of each clone would stop at the demon king level, and there would be no possibility of further advancement.
This point was actually very easy to understand. The soul was incomplete, so how could the clone transcend?
Roy believed that once a clone was released, perhaps the clone and the main body might still have the same concepts at the beginning. But as the environment and the things the clone came into contact with changed, it would inevitably be affected by differences, causing its personality to become vastly different from the main body’s. In addition, with the creation of selfishness and the growth of strength, the clone would gradually realize that it was actually on the same level as the main body. Any clone actually had the possibility of becoming the main body. As long as these influences and choices were born, the clone would become an independent individual.
If someone still wanted to take back their clone at this time, they would have to search world by world and then forcibly fuse their clone back.
Moreover, even if they fused back, there was still a huge problem. The clone that forcefully fused back had its own memories and personality. If the main body couldn’t suppress the personality of the clone, it would have schizophrenic symptoms and multiple personality symptoms.
This was the true reason why many demon kings existed, but there had never been rumors of the birth of one at the Deadly Sin level. Those ancient demons might have been greedy for quick success and convenience, so they had created soul clones. But they couldn’t take them back now and could only make do with it. Demons were cunning creatures to begin with, and these old demons had suffered losses, so they didn’t tell this lesson to their descendants, causing them to follow suit and use clones in the Infinite Worlds. This was the so-called lamentation of future generations. They walked all the way in the dark on the clone path and then repeated what the ancient demons had done, causing it to become an endless cycle.
Roy had rejoiced that he had come to his senses in time when studying clones and didn’t take the wrong path.
But now, when he saw Lilith’s 666 clones gathered, he couldn’t help feeling curious. Why were Lilith’s clones exceptions?
Logically speaking, as long as these clones far away in other worlds had a little selfishness, they could completely not respond to the summons. But they still appeared here willingly and looked like they knew what was going to happen.
Recalling Lilith’s prayer when she opened the World Gates, Roy guessed that they might have had some kind of contract or agreement between them, or maybe these clones were really pursuing the same obsession. This obsession was so important that all the clones could put down their selfishness…
Is it really because of the Creator? He realized how important the Creator was in the depths of Lilith’s heart.
While Roy was letting his imagination run wild, the Liliths on the moon soon finished communicating. They were clones of each other and could transmit their memories to let others know what had happened, so there was no need to use many words to explain.
After knowing Roy, this key figure, all the Liliths looked up at him in the air.
Being stared at by 666 pairs of eyes with all kinds of expressions, Roy couldn’t help shivering. He knew that they were asking him to go down, so he quickly landed on the ground.
The Liliths didn’t say anything and only sized Roy up curiously. At this moment, the Lilith of Sanctuary walked out from the crowd and said, “It seems like you’ve guessed it. That’s right. Next, all of us Liliths will enter the Red Sea Egg and finally fuse together to restore the strength of the Deadly Sin level.”
Roy quickly asked his earlier doubts, “Does it require 666 clones to fuse into the Deadly Sin level? Is there any hope of advancing to Deadly Sin level without any clones?”
“666 clones are necessary!” Lilith said with certainty. “Because this is a mysticism ritual to begin with, and it’s only completed with the help of the Red Sea Egg. Of course, there are other methods to replace this ritual, and corresponding magic formations can also replace the function of the Red Sea Egg. But with the Red Sea Egg, it will be more perfect.
“As for whether you can reach the Deadly Sin level without any clones…” Lilith pondered for a moment. “It’s indeed possible because what the ritual ultimately seeks is the completeness of your soul. If your soul has always been complete, you can indeed skip this step.”
With that, Lilith suddenly covered her mouth and laughed. “Although you can skip this step, the most troublesome thing for you is probably the acquisition of power! ”
“What do you mean?” Roy was puzzled.
“Each of the 666 clones is at the demon king level. Do you know what this means?” Lilith said in amusement. “It means that after reaching the Deadly Sin level, the power I have is at least 666 times that of the demon king level!! It might even exceed this. This is the true Deadly Sin level, an existence at another level!”
Roy gasped when he heard this. He had spent so much time growing into a demon king with the help of the system, but Lilith was now telling him that he had to increase his strength by 666 times before he could reach the Deadly Sin level?!
How long would it take to achieve this, and how much would he have to pay?!
If this was the information about advancing to the Deadly Sin level that Lilith had promised to tell him, then Roy would have rather not heard it. After hearing it, he felt that the hope was too slim…
“Why should you worry about this?” Lilith saw through his thoughts. “You have to know that in these hundreds of millions of years, there are only a few at the Deadly Sin level. Moreover, all these Deadly Sin-level existences are those who have followed the Creator. In terms of time, you’re far from reaching this level, so why should you worry? With your current strength, most existences at the demon king level are not your match!”
Roy nodded. Although he had never felt safe and had the fear of lacking firepower, Lilith was right. With his age as a demon, he didn’t need to compare himself to existences who had been living for hundreds of millions of years. This was asking for trouble.
He looked at the Liliths in the back and asked in a low voice, “There should be a distinction between primary and secondary when so many of your clones fuse together, right? Or is there a main body among these Liliths that was split back then?”
“There’s no so-called main body!” Lilith shook her head. “Every one of us is a true Lilith. But because our ultimate goal is to enter the depths of the Void, we have an agreement between us. Whoever obtains the power to resist the Void first will be the main body during the fusion. After all, we need to retain this power.”
“I see…” Roy understood. This was really a harmonious decision.
“Okay, if you have no more questions, then we’ll begin the fusion ritual!” Lilith said. “During this period of time, we need you to help us protect the Red Sea Egg.”
“Huh?!” Roy was about to nod, but then he reacted and asked curiously, “Protection? Are you worried that Mephisto and the others will suddenly appear?”
“No, not them! They don’t have the courage to interfere with the ritual.” Lilith shook her head. “It’s another fellow… When he appears, you’ll understand.” With that, Lilith turned around.
“Wait! You’re talking without rhyme or reason…” Roy quickly pulled her back.
“Aren’t you a seer? At least give me accurate information so that I can prepare.”
“It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but I can’t see it for the time being!” Lilith said helplessly. She pointed at the Liliths behind her. “Too many seers are gathered together, and the power of time is disturbed.”
“There’s such a thing?” Roy looked at Lilith in puzzlement. “Why don’t I believe
“Don’t worry. With your strength, even if you can’t win, you can stall for time!” Lilith patted his chest. “You just need to persevere until my consciousness is complete.”
With that, Lilith turned around. All of the Liliths moved aside and let her lead the way into the Red Sea Egg.
Standing in the Red Sea Egg, the Liliths formed several circles. They stood hand in hand and linked everyone’s magic power together.
At the same time, the petals of the Red Sea Egg began to close slowly. After all the petals closed, Roy could no longer see any Lilith outside. He could only feel the incomparably boundless magic power surging in the Red Sea Egg.
The entire Red Sea Egg began to move rhythmically. Every time it pulsated like a heart, a powerful energy wave would spread out. Not only did this wave spread throughout the moon, but it also radiated out into space and finally spread throughout the entire star system where Sanctuary was!
Roy looked at the starry sky above him in astonishment. He was the person who most directly felt this powerful energy wave. In his normal vision, in the dark starry sky in the distance, the stars were swaying and trembling. The reality of this material universe was actually distorting!
When he switched to the divine spark vision to observe, he found a lot of incomprehensible information in the underlying laws that he could neither interpret nor control.
The energy radiating from the sun not far away was fluctuating irregularly, looking sometimes dim and sometimes bright.
Roy didn’t understand what was happening, but he knew that Lilith’s fusion process might have caused tremendous interference in this world. This commotion was too great.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this commotion that someone would come to check.. Roy understood, so he entered the True Name Liberation state and began to prepare…
