Chapter 114: The Pan-dimensional Will Ring

The occasion was very romantic and poetic, and it brought a touch of emotion to Lin Lei’s heart, but this was only for a moment. A moment later, the clarity returned to Lin Lei’s eyes.

This green-dressed woman was the avatar of the World Tree; he had confirmed this without a doubt.

Even with his current heaven-defying instinct for observation and calculation, he could not see any essential difference between this avatar and other people.

She stood there, just like a real existence, but the contradiction lay right there. Such a beautiful and unique woman stood there, yet the surrounding people all turned a blind eye to her.

“System, scan this target. I need detailed information on this avatar.” Helpless, Lin Lei could only turn to the System for help, but this time, he was not confident in the System’s abilities either.

But the System did not respond at all, as if it did not exist. No matter how Lin Lei called, it just would not show up; it had made up its mind to be a coward.

The origin of the System was very mysterious. Having followed him for so long, Lin Lei had never found a single clue about its source.

Thinking back now, he suddenly realized that whenever a Pan-dimensional Creature was present, the System would remain silent. This was the case in the Apocalypse and in Lumoda.

In the Katzga Star Region, this System actually turned a blind eye to his danger, allowing the Star Alliance’s War Fortress Main Gun to fire down upon him. At that time, there were two Pan-dimensional Creatures present: the newly reborn Dark Saint, and the World Tree who had rushed over to save Lin Lei.

All of this seemed to indicate that the limit of the System’s ability stopped at Pan-dimensional Creatures. So, could it be that some Pan-dimensional mighty figure created the System and threw it into Lin Lei’s brain? All this was unknown.

At this time, the green-dressed woman walked up gracefully. She walked in front of Lin Lei, placed a hand on Lin Lei’s cheek, and whispered: “Follow me!”

With just this soft whisper, it carried a power ful Will that Lin Lei could not resist. In an instant, Lin Lei found that the space around him began to ripple like water.

The entire scene of the bonfire party disappeared in this fluctuation. When the surrounding space became clear again, Lin Lei found that he was already upon the main body of the World Tree.

This tree was not as high as he had seen from a distance, spanning several Light Years. In fact, it was only about 10 kilometers high. The entire trunk was crystal clear and emerald green, vivid and flawless.

Every leaf of the World Tree emitted a faint green light. The intensity of the light from each leaf was different, and this green light pulsed with regular changes, like a human’s heartbeat and breathing.

At this moment, the avatar of the World Tree, this green-dressed woman, stood opposite Lin Lei, except that there was now an emerald crown on her head.

Lin Lei was full of gratitude toward the World Tree. He followed the ancient etiquette of the Chinese people on Earth and bowed deeply to her. To her, this might have been a small effort, but to Lin Lei, it was a life-saving grace.

World Tree was just the external name for this Pan-dimensional Creature. Now, in this face-to-face communication, calling her that again seemed very inappropriate.

While Lin Lei was thinking about how to address her, the World Tree opposite him saw through Lin Lei’s thoughts. She smiled and said: “My full name is Lennadesrya. You can call me Lenna.”

Lenna, the World Tree, at this moment, looked as kind as the big sister next door in Lin Lei’s eyes, completely lacking the extremely noble and mysterious temperament Lin Lei had imagined.

This image made Lin Lei feel very relaxed. He curiously looked at everything around him, looking at the boundless green forest beneath the World Tree.

“Lenna, you saved me. I am very grateful, and also very curious. Based on what I’ve seen and heard in the tribe these past few days, you went there to help the Dark Saint, right?”

These things were simple. Lin Lei was just making the most likely guess based on the details of the events. Of course, now was the time to verify its correctness.

Mentioning the Dark Saint, a trace of disgust flashed across Lenna’s face. She said with some anger: “Help? No, it was just an exchange. This stupid, arrogant guy is still immersed in the glory of Pan-dimensional Creatures from tens of millions of years ago and cannot extricate himself. Now he is completely destroyed.”

“Exchange? Is this Dark Saint the guy who destroyed the forest hundreds of years ago and was then expelled by you?” Lin Lei had already witnessed the power of a Pan-dimensional Creature. This Forbidden Domain obviously could not withstand the destruction of a battle between Pan-dimensional Creatures.

A Pan-dimensional Creature, just by being reborn, almost destroyed the Katzga Star System, let alone a battle.

According to the tribal elders, hundreds of years ago, the attacking Pan-dimensional Creature was expelled by the World Tree. Then Lin Lei could completely understand that the World Tree and that black-haired, black-eyed guy did not fight at all, but reached some kind of agreement.

The people living in this Forbidden Domain were very lucky, because in the heart of their Mother Goddess, they still had some weight and would not be easily abandoned.

Lenna was not surprised that Lin Lei could guess the course of events. She sighed and said: “Actually, sometimes I really envy interstellar creatures like you. You are free in the Universe, without the burden of this power, and can do many things you like.”

“Yes, the guy who behaved badly four hundred years ago was the Dark Saint. His power was not as strong as mine, but he threatened the lives of all the people in my Forbidden Domain, forcing me to promise him one condition.”

Four hundred years ago, this time was not much different from when the Dark Saint destroyed a Tenth-grade Civilization in the Galaxy. And shortly after the Dark Saint wiped out the Tenth-grade Civilization, he himself was killed by the Watcher Civilization.

Presumably, this condition was related to the Dark Saint’s rebirth.

This tragic guy, after going through so much trouble to be reborn, was killed again immediately, less than ten seconds after his success.

“I think the Dark Saint had already foreseen his future. His rebirth indeed needed your help.”

“This was indeed the exchange condition agreed upon back then. He would not harass my Forbidden Domain, and I had to help him in his time of danger. For us, as long as we have promised something, we will fulfill it, and will not let deception and lies pollute our Will. So this time, I rushed to help him delay the firing time of the Star Alliance’s War Fortress Main Gun.”

Speaking of this, a trace of fear appeared on Lenna’s face. She said with lingering fear: “The attack from the Watcher Civilization’s War Fortress Main Gun was really too powerful. One such attack would consume the total energy of three super stars in the Galaxy. The energy density reached was already very close to the beginning of the Universe.”

At the beginning of the Universe, the entire Universe was just a singularity. All Rules were in a unified state, and stable matter had not yet been produced. Being attacked by energy of this intensity, no matter which Pan-dimensional Creature it was, their body would completely collapse. If they were unlucky, even their Will would be completely annihilated!

In the previous attack, the frontal attack was endured by the newly reborn Dark Saint. Lin Lei was just on the edge of the attack, which also gave Lenna the chance to save him.

Lenna looked at Lin Lei with a bit of gloating and said: “So, little guy, what shocking crime did you commit to make those guys from the Star Alliance include you in the strike range?”

“What I did was similar to the Dark Saint. The Dark Saint infected people from several interstellar civilizations into Dark Remnants, while I killed too many of these Dark Remnants. Actually, if I calculate seriously, in terms of the number of kills, I only rank third.”

The number one killer was not the Dark Saint either, but the Star Alliance. That shot of his not only killed the Dark Saint but also wiped out thousands of Black Warships and millions of Silver Mechas present. It’s just that the Star Alliance was the most powerful and held the moral high ground, so no one would condemn or punish them.

Lenna’s face showed a look of reluctance, but she did not say anything. After being silent for a while, she spoke: “Lin Lei, although you are considered an interstellar life, you are too weak. Many times, you don’t even have the ability to escape. I have a gift here, I wonder if you dare to accept it?”

These words startled Lin Lei. What gift? If it’s a gift, just give it. Why ask if he dared to accept it? Was it a bomb or poison?

Just then, Lenna extended her palm, hovering an “object” above it. This object could not be seen or heard; anyone’s five senses could not detect it.

But Lin Lei clearly felt its existence on the level of pure Will. He simply shut down his five senses to observe it.

It was a ring, an existence similar to a Mobius Ring, twisted from eleven elements, and currently, it was stable.

“What is this? Pure Will? How can it exist in thin air?”

“Yes, it is pure Will, the remnant Will of the Dark Saint. The Will of ordinary creatures cannot exist apart from matter, but the Will of Pan-dimensional Creatures possesses a nearly complete understanding of the Universe’s Laws. This is a Will Ring of a closed loop. It is useless to me, but its effect on you is immeasurable.”

This was a supreme temptation, but Lin Lei was not carried away. He calmly said: “Since this is a complete Will, does that mean that as long as the conditions are right, it can be reborn as the Dark Saint?”

“Of course, this is the risk that must be taken. This Will Ring does not contain much judgment mechanism. It is mostly composed of memory information, containing the essence of the knowledge of a Pan-dimensional Creature. If you accept it, there are two results: one is that you completely fuse with it and become a new Pan-dimensional Creature. The other is that you are counter-devoured, and the Dark Saint is reborn.”

This object had been hovering in Lenna’s palm. In Lin Lei’s will vision, it had an incredibly simple and beautiful structure. It seemed to issue a summons to Lin Lei, charming him, making him fuse with it.

Lin Lei involuntarily stretched out his hand, about to touch this most perfect thing in the world. He was somewhat impatient to fuse with it into one.

Lenna, standing opposite him, had a struggle in her eyes. She simply turned her head to look into the distance, leaving Lin Lei to his fate.

Just as Lin Lei was about to touch the Will Ring in Lenna’s hand, a stinging pain suddenly came from Lin Lei’s brain. This was a reminder from the System!

This made him suddenly wake up. In just this short while, Lin Lei felt his mind and spirit were exhausted, and an indescribable fatigue surged up.

“Lenna, why did you do this? Why did you help the Dark Saint be reborn again and again?” Lin Lei looked at this green-dressed woman, finding it hard to understand her code of conduct.

Since she loathed the Dark Saint, why did she help him again and again?

Lennadesrya, the World Tree, saw Lin Lei wake up and also breathed a sigh of relief. She said with some apology: “This was the original agreement. And your choice determined whether the Dark Saint would be reborn. Now it seems, he has lost this opportunity. Since you have resisted the temptation, then it has no need to exist.”

Saying this, Lenna was about to clench her palm. She prepared to completely annihilate this remnant of the Dark Saint.

“Wait, I didn’t refuse. It is still mine!” Lin Lei still knew the Dark Saint quite well. He was powerful, but not powerful enough to make Lin Lei fear him.

If he had been tempted just now, then after the fusion, the result would definitely be the rebirth of the Dark Saint, because he had already lost at the very beginning.

But now, choosing to fuse while completely sober, it was hard to predict who would win and who would lose.

Lenna was greatly puzzled. She opened her eyes wide and looked at this black-haired man in disbelief.

Lin Lei, on the other hand, stared at Lenna with burning eyes. This was an excellent opportunity. Lin Lei decided to fight to the death. If he won, he would become a supreme existence! If he lost, he would be completely obliterated!

This was a huge gamble, and it also fit the crazy characteristic hidden deep in Lin Lei’s heart.
